Kapitel 49: Visiting the King Power Stadium

Southampton's defeat made the fans speak up about Kazuki and Denilson's problems. They hope that the problem will be resolved soon and Kazuki can return to compete in the 32nd match week.

However, one day after Southampton's game against Queen Park Rangers, Denilson's agent spoke again to the media. He said, "Kazuki must apologize immediately, he must not be selfish and harm the interests of the club."

Agent Denilson spoke as if only Kazuki was at fault. Those words irritated Kazuki. On his social media accounts, he spoke directly about this issue.

[I do owe an apology, but that is to the team, not to any particular individual. I feel ready to play if the coach wants. Of course, if someone isn't gentle enough to apologize first then I don't think Southampton needs him. We have Crage and also Ryan, they are both good players.]

Kazuki made himself on the same side as the fans. Southampton's situation made Kazuki's ability more needed than Denilson's. In fact, if Southampton wants to perform better in next week's match, then including Kazuki in the big list is one way. Kazuki was sure that George also knew about it.

Even though Kazuki felt that he was on the right side in this matter but there were still a few people who insulted him for his attitude. The problem wasn't due to the fact Kazuki was wrong, but because Denilson was British while Kazuki wasn't.

Not everyone in this world is racist. However, it is undeniable that racism does exist in all corners of the world. Because of that, there were some racist comments in the posts he uploaded on his social media accounts. Fortunately, there were still many people who defended Kazuki. They scolded the racist comments and gave Kazuki their support sincerely.

Kazuki knew that the people who made racist comments were only a small part. A small thing like that wouldn't make Kazuki view the UK negatively.

Southampton's daily training is still ongoing. Kazuki was still present as usual, but Denilson was not present at the training. Denilson's absence made Southampton's training atmosphere more harmonious.

A smart person must know when to stop. If Denilson's agent continued to express opinions that cornered Kazuki then people would sympathize with Kazuki even more. However, if he stops causing trouble then he must apologize, otherwise, Denilson will only be isolated by his Southampton teammates. There are still a few months before the summer transfer window opens. If Denilson wants to leave Southampton, then he has to be prepared to miss the last 7 games.

The decision whether Denilson will apologize or continue to corner Kazuki will be seen after matchday 32 takes place. Because the day before the match took place, George announced Kazuki entered the big list but Denilson didn't.

If Kazuki plays well in this match, then it is evident that Kazuki is better than Denilson, and that means Southampton doesn't need Denilson. On the other hand, if Southampton lost and Kazuki didn't make any contribution then Denilson would probably continue to make comments that cornered Kazuki.

Leicester Stadium was originally called Walkers Stadium. However, in 2009, the name of their stadium became King Power Stadium, after being acquired by a consortium from Thailand, King Power Group, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha.

In the 2008/2009 season, Leicester was still struggling in league one. League One is the third caste league in the English football system, position of league one is below the championship league. In just a few seasons, Leicester has been promoted to the English premier league.

The current Leicester coach is Nigel Pearson. Under Nigel Pearson's coaching, Leicester managed to maintain 9th position in the English Premier League table. They are 5 points less than Everton, who are in 8th place in the English Premier League table.

"Good evening everyone, welcome to Week 32 of the English Premier League. This time, we are broadcasting the match between Leicester City Vs Southampton which will take place at the King Power Stadium.

Last week, Southampton suffered a 1-2 defeat to Queens Park Rangers. Kazuki and Denilson as Southampton's mainstay forward did not play in that match. The two of them had a conflict, until now there was no news that their dispute had been resolved.

However, from the big list that George brought this time, it could be seen that Kazuki was one of the players that George brought to Leicester. Meanwhile, Denilson Hunt is not included in the players brought by George for this match.

Let's see if Kazuki's appearance can bring Southampton victory in this match. Both teams have prepared, let's see the starting line-up of each team.

As the host, Leicester appears with a 4-3-3 formation, a formation that emphasizes attack.

Goalkeepers: Kasper Schmeichel;

Defenders: Daniel Aimerte, J. Evans, Fofana, C. Soeyuecue;

Midfielders: Ngogi Kante, Maddison, A. Perez

Front: A. Davies, Adama Traore, Danny Ward.

Meanwhile, Southampton uses a 4-4-1-1 formation. Southampton used this formation against Everton.

Goalkeepers: Dean Smith;

Defenders: Vicente, Hilton, Okhalo, Benson;

Midfielders: Hugo, Simone, Rudolf, Kounde;

Shadow striker: Kazuki

Striker: Osmund.

Obviously, Leicester will play aggressively as usual. Kante seemed will marking Kazuki. A duel between them is a duel that I was looking forward to. Meanwhile, it is difficult to predict whether Southampton will compete with Leicester for possession, or whether Southampton will use the usual counter-attacking strategy.

Let's watch the first half between Leicester and Southampton in Week 32 of the English Premier League."

Leicester started the first half kick-off. Under the management of Nigel Pearson, Leicester became a team with good control of the rhythm of the game. Maddison is the playmaker who will set Leicester's rhythm. One of the things Maddison often does is change the rhythm from slow to fast suddenly. The speed of the two Leicester wingers and also the uniqueness of Adama Traore as a striker became a powerful weapon in Leicester City's attack scheme.

The uniqueness of Adama Traore lies in his physicality. He not only has great physical strength but also has incredible speed. Some players have speed but lack endurance, some players have extraordinary endurance but are slow. Traore is one of the players who have both. If it weren't for his poor ball control and shooting accuracy, he would probably be a star player.

All three Leicester forward players have good pace, but they all lack accuracy shooting the ball. Meanwhile, in midfield, Kante and Maddison are an irreplaceable midfield duo. Kante can defend a very wide area, he can also help Maddison when Maddison is guarded by opposing players. On the other hand, Maddison has an accurate long pass and also good skill. Maddison, who is only 23 years old, is rumored to have been targeted by big clubs.

Leicester's pace will be a challenge for the Southampton defense.
