Starting from February, the score grab plan formulated by Chu Zhongtian for Wimbledon Athletics officially began to be implemented.

In the 28th round of the league on February 1, Wimbledon played against Brighton at home. Brighton was previously ranked 14th in the league and was not strong enough. Chu Zhongtian’s request for the whole team was victory.

He also did his best to help the team win.

In the end, Wimbledon won Brighton 3-1 at home, winning their fourth two-game winning streak of the season.

Three days later, on February 4, Wimbledon Athletics challenged Leicester City away. The two sides were ranked very similar in the standings and their strength was relatively close. In addition, Leicester City played at home.

In this game, Chu Zhongtian turned the tide with his own strength. When the team was behind 1:2, he first used long shots to equalize the score for the team. Then he used a corner kick opportunity in the 81st minute to head the ball twice, helping the team finally defeat the opponent 3:2.

He has also scored eleven goals in the league, currently ranked fifth in the league scorer list.

At the same time, he is still the best scorer in the team, but Kevin Clark has already caught up with him, with nine goals, only two left.

On February 11, Wimbledon Athletics faced Crystal Palace at home. In this game, Wimbledon Athletics performed well, with almost no suspense. They led 2:0 in the first half, and neither side scored a goal in the second half. In the end, Wimbledon Athletics won the game with a score of 2:0.

The points ranking rose to eighth place in the league, only two places away from sixth place in the league, and the points gap was only five points, which was a matter of two games.

Wimbledon Athletics, which won four consecutive victories, surprised the media. You should know that in January, their results were still very unstable. They could lose just after winning the ball, and they could win after losing the ball.

Why did this team seem to be reborn after suddenly entering February? Everyone is not blind, and some things can't be seen by just looking at the score. Anyone who has watched Wimbledon's games has an impression that Wimbledon's sports are more active than before. They quickly enter the state from the first minute of the game, constantly attacking, pursuing goals, and using their fast characteristics to hit the opponent's goal, so that the opponent can often have to parry and cannot fight back.

Wimbledon's style of play is really powerful. More than 65% of all their goals were scored in the first half, and the goals scored in the 25 minutes of the game reached 30%. This number is terrifying.

Teams that can win the lead can gain an advantage in the game and take the initiative into their own hands.

Although people always criticize teams that often lead and win games as "teams that are not good at playing against the wind", who is willing to play against the wind?

Why not play with a tailwind? Why not play with a tailwind?

Chu Zhongtian ignored these criticisms and believed that the team's ability to play a good match was their advantage. Since it was an advantage, it should be carried forward.

"In these games, Wimbledon Athletics has shown a very unified feature - that is speed. Use speed to attack at the beginning of the game to strive for the first place. As long as you can score a goal first, you can drag the game into the track they are familiar with. At that time, the leading Wimbledon Athletics will be able to control the rhythm of the game leisurely. If they want to make the game fast, the game will be fast, and if they want to make the game slower, the game will be slower. And because the opponent is anxious, they can only lead the nose by them."

"...I think we finally know what the football characteristics of Wimbledon Athletic are... Their football was messy and chaotic in the first half of the season, so we couldn't see anything at all. But after entering the second half of the season, after the performance of this team stabilized, we can also see some clues... Old fans must still remember the German team Hoffenheim that once alarmed European football? The football they played was very similar to the football at Wimbledon Athletic today, and Chu played for that team for three seasons and was deeply affected. This change in Wimbledon Athletic was something that happened after Chu came to the team, so we can say that Wimbledon Athletic must be Chu's idea..."

"No matter who has the idea, at least the football played by Wimbledon Athletics is good and wins. Wimbledon Athletics has won four consecutive victories. We have learned from the happy Wimbledon Athletics fans that their support for the team's tactical style - as long as they can win, it's a good tactic!"

※※※ Just when everyone was singing praises for Wimbledon, and even the media that were not optimistic about Chu Zhongtian before showed signs of a loose attitude, Wimbledon once made people understand what it means to be unable to withstand praise.

On February 15, Wimbledon's winning streak was terminated. This time they fought with Birmingham away for 90 minutes, and neither side scored a goal.

Birmingham took a defensive posture at the beginning of the game to curb Wimbledon's fast break. This method is very effective. Chu Zhongtian did not expect that his opponent would give up the idea of ​​attacking and scoring three-pointers at his home court, just like defending a point.

This is indeed very surprising, even the commentators and reporters did not guess. Generally speaking, they should score three points at their home court. Unexpectedly, Birmingham was trying to score one point.

After the 0:0 game, Chu Zhongtian admitted in front of the players that the draw was his mistake and his responsibility. Everyone performed well and was his problem. At the same time, he told the players not to doubt the team's tactics, even if we were curbed by Birmingham away, it was just bad luck. If we were more prepared and luckier, it would not be difficult to win the game.

The draw in Birmingham made the media who had not been optimistic about Chu Zhongtian's coaching cheer, believing that Birmingham has set the best example for everyone - if you want to defeat Wimbledon Athletics, you have to do this!

On February 18th, Wimbledon Athletics, who returned to home, was defeated by the league's sixth-ranked direct competitor Hul City. The score was 2:3. Although Chu Zhongtian scored a goal and assisted a goal in the game, the opponent received a controversial penalty at the last moment, and defeated Wimbledon Athletics with this penalty.

Chu Zhongtian seemed very angry after the game. He believed that Joseph, the Hul City striker who fell in the penalty area at that time, was a fake fall. For this reason, he bombarded the referee on duty in this game after the game "had a clear tendency". He even listed several controversial penalty decisions from the referee.

Such a speech certainly caused an uproar after the game. The FA's referee official warned Chu Zhongtian to be responsible for his remarks: "Even if you are a big star, you must be responsible for every word you say."

Chu Zhongtian replied toughly: "Of course I will be responsible for every word I say. Everyone present saw what the referee did to my team!"

Some media praised Chu Zhongtian as a qualified head coach because "he has dared to challenge the English FA in order to protect the interests of his team."

Those media that didn't like him very much before became those who supported Chu Zhongtian because of this incident... Chu Zhongtian's riots made him less pressure on the media. So some people analyzed that Chu Zhongtian, who has always been calm and considers the overall situation, suddenly stimulated the English Football League so much for a penalty kick. Maybe there is a performance and show. The purpose is to improve his image in the media - the English media likes the most and authoritative, so those who dare to challenge authority have good comments on them... The result of Chu Zhongtian's challenge of authority was that he was banned from two games by the FA Discipline Committee on the grounds of slandering the referee... ※※ "Wimbledon Athletics head coach Chu was banned from two games!"

"Chu faces a surveillance game in two games!"

"The two bans will be fined 5,000 pounds! The English FA is not ruthless in the history of the English Championship!"

Chu Zhongtian's ban on the game these days has become the focus of media discussion.

Chu Zhongtian said helplessly in an interview: "Very good. It's the first time I'm a head coach, the first time I'm a team coach, the first time I'm a draw as a head coach, the first time I'm a victory as a head coach, the first time I've won the victory as a head coach... I've enjoyed all these firsts, and now it's the first time I've been suspended as a head coach..."

"Do you regret what you said?"

Chu Zhongtian shook his head firmly: "Not at all. I told the truth. Until now, I still insist that the penalty kick should not exist. I have no intention of offending Hul City's players and coaches, after all, they performed very well in the game. But this definitely does not mean that I think they should win, because we performed very well, and I think the draw is a reasonable result for both of us. Obviously, Hul City's victory should not have happened at all!"

Anyway, Chu Zhongtian was even more relaxed and spoke more vigorously.

After the punishment result came out, the media began to pay attention to how the ban should be implemented. Because keen reporters found that there were big problems here... It is obvious that the ban on Chu Zhongtian was targeted at his identity as a head coach, that is, the head coach's game was banned. But he was also a player. If only the head coach's game was banned and there were no players, he could enter the locker room and the stadium as a player. What did he say in the locker room? The English FA did not care about it. He could say what a head coach could only say, but his identity was a player... It was the same on the court. So, what was the point of such a ban?

If this is true, the FA Discipline Committee of England will be a laughing stock for everyone.

So the English FA Discipline Committee held a meeting and studied for a long time and issued a new ticket to Chu Zhongtian - forbidding Chu Zhongtian from entering the stadium for two games... This is aimed at Chu Zhongtian. He is not allowed to enter the stadium, so naturally he will not be able to perform the task of the head coach. He can't even enter the stadium, let alone representing Wimbledon as a player.

This actually banned both Chu Zhongtian as the head coach and Chu Zhongtian as the player.

Of course, Wimbledon Athletic Club is not convinced - Chu Zhongtian attacked the referee as Wimbledon Athletics head coach, and the English Football Association's Discipline Committee also punished "head coach Chu Zhongtian". Why should "player Chu Zhongtian" be affected?

"...We respect the FA Disciplinary Committee's punishment results on head coach Chu, but we do not agree with their decision to restrict entry to player Chu. This is a continuous position, and it is unfounded - which provision allows the punishment of head coach to punish one player?"

Although Wimbledon Athletic Club is not a big club, it is very tough when facing the FA.

In fact, Wimbledon fans have always had old grudges about the English Football League. If it weren't for the FA's unity, how could the Norwegian businessman move Wimbledon to other places and change his name to Milton Keynes? Wimbledon fans protested to the FA for a long time, but ordinary fans obviously cannot beat capitalists, and the FA didn't care about their voices at all. In this way, Wimbledon fans lost their team and became orphans that no one wanted. This is naturally a shame and humiliation for England fans who regard community football as their lifelong pursuit.

This is not the end. Later, Wimbledon fans organized and established the Wimbledon Athletic Club. Since the first day of the club's establishment, they have been constantly complaining to the Football Association, hoping that the Football Association can allow them to inherit the name of "Wimbledon" without having to name it "Wimbledon". However, the Football Association rejected their applications again and again.

Although they always claimed that they were the orthodox heirs of the "crazy gang", this was just their own statement. The official disagreed, and the FA did not agree, and they were still a pseudo-crazy gang wearing orthodox skin. If the FA did not agree one day, they could not claim that they were the crazy gang in formal occasions. The English FA did not belong to them for only one day.

This time the FA always dealt with their heroes. How could it be that the attitude of resistance is not tough?

Wimbledon Athletics then filed a complaint with the FA.

England's ban rules are like this - when a player or head coach is banned, the ban does not start immediately, but will give the punished person a chance to appeal. If the player chooses not to appeal, the ban will automatically start from the next game. If the player chooses to appeal, it is very good. Before the re-appeal results come out, this person can continue to play, whether on the court or on the coach's seat... Wimbledon Athletic filed a complaint, so at least Chu Zhongtian will not be absent in the next game, but it is hard to say... Wimbledon Athletic's opponents will challenge Derby County away and face Leeds United at home.

Especially in the second game, it is very difficult to play against Leeds United. Even in the away game, Leeds United is now ranked second in the league. Although the league ranking has dropped by one place than the last time the two sides fought, its strength is still very strong. Wimbledon is helpless. Although the appeal can prevent Chu Zhongtian from absenting the game against Derby County, it is very likely that he will miss the game against Leeds United unless they successfully appeal and the English FA cancelled the penalty - but it is almost impossible.

Interestingly, on the one hand, the FA Discipline Committee of the England Football Association issued a ticket for Chu Zhongtian, and tried his best to prevent Chu Zhongtian from playing. On the other hand, the English League Committee named Wimbledon Athletics the best club in February, and Chu Zhongtian was also selected as the best coach.

The FA England cannot control the English League Committee.

Chu Zhongtian expressed his gratitude to the league committee when receiving the award. This was his first honor in his coaching career and was very memorable.

But this did not dilute his troubles. Some media said: "...He would definitely rather not have this honor than a victory, and there is no such dispute..."

※※On March 3rd, Wimbledon will go to Derby County to challenge away.

Chu Zhongtian appeared in this game because he was still in the appeal stage and could participate in the game. However, before the game, the media said that Chu Zhongtian would definitely miss the game against Leeds United, which is a huge news for Leeds United coach Donald.

In the first half of the season, Donald was trapped in the whirlpool of "whether Chu is on the court" and never came to his senses. He knew that at the last moment before the game began, he knew that Chu Zhongtian was on the bench.

But this time, he doesn't have to worry. If the FA Discipline Committee rejects the appeal of Wimbledon Athletic Club, then Chu Zhongtian will definitely miss the game against Leeds United - he will not even be able to enter the court at that time, let alone play in the game.

Chu Zhongtian has no choice but to have no choice but to be in the ball guard for two games. If the English FA insists on placing him as punished, he has no choice but to sit in the ball guard for two games.

In order to minimize the losses, Chu Zhongtian tried his best in this game with Derby County. He not only had to win, but also had to win more and get more goals. If it was really time to compare the goal difference, the goal difference in this game might play a crucial role. According to the regulations of the English Football League Committee, when the two teams had the same points, first compare the goal difference. Whoever had the goal difference more, he would rank higher. When the goal difference was the same, then compare the number of goals. If the points, goal difference, and goal difference were the same, the noun was tied. If the points, goal difference, and goal difference were the same, the noun was tied. If the highest was determined to determine who won the championship and who participated in the European event, the playoffs were arranged to determine the final ranking.

In this game, Chu Zhongtian completed a hat-trick and assisted his teammates to score two goals, and eventually helped Wimbledon defeat Derby County with a score of 5:2 on the away game.

Chu Zhongtian was selected as the best player after the game.

The media have expressed that seeing Chu Zhongtian's outstanding performance, Leeds United's head coach Donald probably thanked the FA England Discipline Committee even more because they killed one of the most dangerous enemies for themselves...
