Dundee United played a 2:2 score against Schalke 04 at home, and they are already in a disadvantageous situation, which also makes Dundee United's next devil's schedule more difficult.

The next step is to prepare for the 30th round of the Soviet Super League. Dundee United will go away to challenge the Glasgow Rangers.

Before the whole team left for Glasgow, Jackie Lee specifically found Peter Houston and had a private chat with him.

"Peter, I want to take a good rest for the weekend league." Li Chenglong said straight to the point.

"Bruce, what's the matter, are you feeling unwell?" Peter Houston became a little nervous.

Now in the second half of the season, it is also a stage that will directly affect the final results of a season. If there is something wrong with Lee Chenglong's body at this time, then Dundee United may suffer a catastrophe.

"No, my body is fine, Peter, don't worry. I just feel a little tired, I want to take a good rest, and I am going to Germany to fight Schalke 04 next week."

Li Chenglong is also telling the truth. This season, Dundee United has fought on multiple fronts. For most of the season, they often have double matches in a week.

As the thigh of the team, Li Chenglong naturally got very little rest time, and he was indeed a little tired.

However, the second half of Li Chenglong's words is the key point.

Going to Germany to fight again.

In fact, after scoring 2:2 with Schalke 04 at home and allowing the opponent to score two crucial away goals, Peter Houston already had the intention of giving up.

It's not bad to get out of the Europa League, go back to China and fight for the most important league title with the Celtics.

This is what Peter Huston really thinks.

You must know that the last time someone in the Scottish Premier League was able to break the domination of time-honored brands was already in the 1980s during Ferguson's time.

If Peter Houston can do such a thing, it will be "on par with Ferguson".

And being knocked out of the Europa League by a Bundesliga powerhouse is not a shame.

But now Lee Jackie doesn't want to give up the Europa League, which makes Peter Houston a little headache.

Li Chenglong is the undoubted thigh of the current team, and his opinion must be seriously considered by Peter Houston.

"Peter, it doesn't matter if we give up a league game appropriately, don't we still have a direct match with the Celtics?" Li Chenglong said.

At present, Dundee United has all three matches against the Celtics in the three rounds, but in the end there is another chance for a direct match in the championship group.

"But if we lose this round, we will be widened by three points, and we will be at a disadvantage in terms of goal difference. It is not possible to catch up with the Celtics directly. Do you dare to guarantee that you will win?"

This was what Peter Houston wanted to say in his heart, but he held back and didn't spit it out. Instead, after thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, Bruce, just take a good rest, and I will arrange the game."

On March 11, in the 30th round of the Scottish Super League, Dundee United went to an away game against Glasgow Rangers.

"In the starting list for this game, we didn't see Lee, nor Armstrong and Daley. Obviously, Dundee United hid the three most important players and only arranged a half-rotation lineup."

"The rotation of Dundee United is likely to prepare for the Europa League in the middle of the week. After all, they still have the opportunity to continue to advance in the Europa League."

"But if it's just a one-and-a-half rotation lineup, it may be difficult for Dundee United to retreat from the Ibrox Stadium."

"In the game last night, the Celtics had already won Dunfermline 2-0 at home, so after this game, Dundee United may have to open up some points gap."

Li Chenglong also did not expect that Peter Houston not only let him rest,

Also let Brother Moon and Joan Daly rest together.

But even though they didn't start the game, the three of them went to the away game together with the team, sitting on the bench to cheer for the team.

However, Dundee United, which lacked core players, looked vulnerable in the away game. They were conceded three goals in the first half and conceded two more goals in the second half. In the end, they lost 0:5 in the away game.

This is the worst loss for Dundee United this season.

"We are desperately earning points for the Scottish League in the European competition, but then we are caught by those garbage teams in the domestic league. What can I say?" This is the only sentence Li Chenglong said to reporters after the game talk.

Li Chenglong's words were caught and criticized by some so-called "Vagabonds", criticizing him for disrespecting such a great team as the Rangers.

A Rangers fan was more reasonable on Twitter: "Anyway, we are going to go bankrupt at the end of this season. We can't win a game now, and we can enjoy the European war points you earn a little shit. not."

In any case, after this disastrous defeat, Dundee United opened up a three-point gap by Celtic in league points.

At present, the Celtics have 72 points, and Dundee United only have 69 points. There is still a gap of more than a dozen goal difference. It is really not possible to catch up in one game.

But for Jackie Lee, he really values ​​the Europa League more than the league.

After all, it was also a European war.

The league has been lost, and the team still has to look forward and seriously prepare for the second round of the Europa League round of 16.

If at the cost of giving up a league game, or being eliminated in the Europa League, that would be a real blow to the team.

And when Jackie Lee returned from training for the day, Kate Lee was already waiting for him at home.

"That Jonathan Barnett went to see me." Kate Lee's first sentence caught Lee Chenglong's attention.

"What did he tell you?" Li Chenglong asked curiously.

"He persuaded me to transfer your management business to his banner." Kate Lee continued: "And his argument is very attractive."

"What?" Li Chenglong couldn't help asking: "You actually find his statement very attractive?"

To be honest, after Jonathan Barnett talked to him alone that day, Li Chenglong was somewhat moved.

But Li Chenglong quickly put this matter behind him. After all, he already has Kate Lee as his agent, and he was the one who persuaded Kate Lee to join the industry. Now it is not appropriate to switch to someone else.

Unexpectedly, the bald old man Jonathan Barnett still didn't give up. He went to talk to Kate Lee, and the effect was good, and he actually convinced her.

"Barnett said that he would buy my agency at a high price, but he would not interfere with other players under my banner. I just need to transfer your agency to his name. The other players under my agency will continue to be managed by myself. Responsible."

When Jackie Lee asked Kate Lee to sign other players, she set up a special brokerage company for convenience, but this kind of small unknown brokerage company has 8000 if not 10,000 in Europe, which is of no value at all.

It seems that now Jonathan Barnett is impressing Kate Lee with a high-priced acquisition, and after the acquisition, Kate Lee can retain a lot of autonomy. He only needs Jackie Chan's agency signing rights.

This is equivalent to directly buying Li Chenglong's brokerage rights at a high price.

"I think what he said is very reasonable. Your brokerage value can only be maximized in the hands of a big broker like them, and I can also take the opportunity to learn something from his brokerage company in the future. If you do not cooperate happily in the future, I can also be your retreat."

Kate Lee made it very clear that this will not only benefit Jackie Chan's current development, but also allow her to learn more.

If the situation changes in the future, Li Chenglong kicks off the bald old man, and then turns back to work with Kate Lee. Anyway, it is not easy for a top player to kick out his agent.

And by doing so, now Kate Lee can make a good fortune by selling Jackie Lee.

This is simply selling your son to make a fortune in an aboveboard manner.

But Barnett must also know this, but he still dared to do this, which shows that the old man is also very confident.

He believes that as long as Li Chenglong transfers to his banner, there will be no defection of Li Chenglong in the future.
