With maxed-out heading ability from the start, I became the king of Arsenal.

The day after the League Cup ended, Sun Yu got some big news.

Ronaldo's strike partner, Bolton's cup weapon, a player cleared out during Mourinho's first stint at Chelsea, and the Icelandic "god striker" Gudjohnsen, who had the least presence during Barcelona's six-title era but had an inflated sense of self-importance.

In an interview with Icelandic media after the third round of the League Cup, he said he did not receive a fair chance in the competition.

"There are six players on this team who can play center forward, but I'm the only one who hasn't had a starting opportunity."

"Unlike the clubs I've played for before, Tony (Pris) is the only person at this club who can make decisions. He's like a tyrant and can't tolerate any different opinions."

"That's right, he really likes that young man; their understanding of football is strikingly similar."

"In their view, football is like a life-or-death sport, or a battle."

"They'll do anything to kill each other."

"Maybe it was something I said in my first week with the team that made me realize I've lost the right to compete with other players in my position."

"Some people can obtain resources that others can't get no matter how hard they try. I don't know what will happen next, I just know that I feel very uncomfortable."

Before training the next morning, Pulis read the report aloud in front of everyone, then slammed the newspaper down on Gudjohnsen's face: "Get out of here, you bastard!"

"You fawn over the media like a dog, do you think you can get screen time by pressuring them?!"

"Fuck you! You fucking picked the wrong person!"

"I'll just consider it like I spent over a million pounds to buy the right to use a dog. From today onwards, you're just going to rot in the reserves!"

Goodjohnson was so enraged by the insults that he tried to fight back, but Shawcross came over and stared at him with the menacing look of a butcher looking at livestock.

Then Gudjohnsen's eyes cleared up...

Pulis unleashed a barrage of attacks on Gudjohnsen for nearly ten minutes before banishing him to the outer ring of the training facility and strictly forbidding him from participating in any team activities.

In other words, Goodjohnsen lost his eligibility to eat in the cafeteria.

This incident caused a huge uproar in the English media. The outside world was already very curious about Stoke City, and after this conflict broke out, the entire English media was fabricating news about Stoke City.

Sun Yu read some news reports. Some media outlets were not clear about what happened at the training base and wrote about it in a confusing way, even adding some suspenseful writing techniques.

However, some media outlets clearly received inside information, and their news reports were very close to the truth.

Sun Yu gained a profound understanding of the concept of capitalism this time. He felt that as long as the media was willing to spend money, they could completely infiltrate the world outside the club's locker room.

Strangely, others thought it was perfectly normal.

However, there is an unwritten rule in English clubs that what happens in the dressing room must never be made public.

To his surprise, everyone followed this industry rule.

9 month 18 day.

Britannia Stadium.

Premier League Round 5.

Stoke City hosted West Ham United at home.

A club that is going all out to win the London Olympic Stadium.

With less than two years to go before the opening of the London Olympics, the British, in an effort to fundamentally transform the impoverished and weak East End of London, decided after careful consideration to build the Olympic Stadium in the East End.

Since the stadium, which can accommodate 80,000 people, will become homeless after the Olympics, the British government and the Olympic Committee have begun working on the issue of the stadium's post-Olympic ownership.

They came up with a total of five proposals.

The British government favors converting the stadium into an F1 circuit, while F1 organizers believe that London's East End is too shabby and unworthy of F1.

The second option is to have Leyton Orient, the closest stadium to the ground, take over the stadium. This option aligns with the British football culture where the stadium is based in the community.

However, Leyton Orient was only a low-level professional club, and the British government felt that giving Leyton Orient to the Olympic Stadium was like marrying it off to someone else, which was not proper.

The third option is to have West Ham United, the second closest team to the stadium, take over the stadium.

The fourth option was to give the stadium to a cricket club, but the English media believed that this option was only fit to be a nominee bidder.

The fifth option was to lease the stadium to Tottenham Hotspur, but this proposal was jointly opposed by West Ham United and Leyton Orient.

Betting companies even offered odds on the stadium's ownership, with West Ham United emerging as the frontrunner.

The media believes that as long as West Ham United remain in the Premier League, they will essentially secure a long-term lease on the Olympic Stadium.

After this unverified news broke, West Ham United fans were in an uproar.

It's not that they don't want to go to the new stadium, but West Ham United have had a disastrous start to the season, losing all four of their matches.

The Premier League has been underway for a month, and they haven't earned a single point.

However, looking at the schedule, West Ham United faced Chelsea, Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Bolton in their first four matches.

In reality, only Bolton is truly capable of playing for West Ham United, but the club's management and fans are very dissatisfied.

Fans are demanding that West Ham United not lose, or they will all miss the next home game for West Ham United.

Stoke City fielded Jones and Walters as their attacking duo for this match, while Sun Yu and Ricardo Fowler were on the bench.

Interestingly, Gudjohnsen also appeared on the bench.

This is a classic example of workplace politics. Pulis wanted to nail Goodjohnsen to the pillory of shame and make him die in front of the whole world.

Sun Yu had no objection; he was a rotation player on the team anyway.

Despite his impressive performances in the last two games, he has only risen from fifth to fourth center forward, displacing Mali's center forward Sidibé.

The player who truly lost his starting position was Ricardo Fowler; Jones was indeed stronger than him.

West Ham United, known as the "Hammers," engaged in a fierce physical battle with Stoke City players from the start.

If they lose another game, their chances of avoiding relegation this season will become extremely slim.

Within the first fifteen minutes of the game, both sides had already received four yellow cards.

The yellow cards were all issued in the heat of the moment or as a deliberate act of revenge, and the intervals between the offenses were all less than three minutes.

West Ham United controlled possession with their three attacking and passing midfielders and launched a series of attacks away from home.

In the 32nd minute, Premier League star Parker scored a stunning long-range goal to give West Ham United the lead away from home.

In the 40th minute, Jones equalized the score with a corner kick.

Sun Yu believes that this black center forward with Trinidadian and Bago ancestry is likely to be one of the five strongest players in the Premier League in terms of physical strength.

Sun Yu read a survey that showed that the average percentage of overweight people in the island nations surrounding the United States was close to 60%.

The biggest reason is that the United States sells the fat parts of the chickens used to make KFC and McDonald's—the butts and tails—at low prices to neighboring countries, subtly instilling in them the habit of eating "calorie bombs."

This food is like a nuclear weapon in science fiction. Sun Yu thinks that judging from Jones's physique, he must have been eating this food since he was a child.

Perhaps it's because he's naturally gifted and has channeled his energy into muscle, but his upper body is still unusually broad.

During the aerial contest, he used his body to deflect the defender away and then dunked over another defender, creating a spectacular scene.

The first half ended in a draw, and the second half continued with a high-intensity physical battle.

In the 64th minute, Ricardo Fowler replaced the exhausted Walters, forming a twin-tower formation.

In the 72nd minute, Sun Yu replaced Jones, and West Ham United immediately substituted one of their forwards with a Czech center-back to help defend against Sun Yu.

With two center-backs sandwiching him, Sun Yu could hardly believe his eyes.

He could only work hard in silence, scoring 100 points against the two center-backs.

West Ham United then brought on a speedster on the left wing, specifically to sneak behind Huth.

Pulis reacted quickly, immediately replacing Pennant with Gudjohnsen, having Sun Yu deal with the speedster, and then having the two center-backs double-team Gudjohnsen.

The match ended up becoming a complete mess, so the referee simply loosened the standards, turning all the set pieces into free-for-alls.

Goodjohnsen was like an office worker squeezed against the door of an early morning bus, completely crushed.

Sun Yu scored another 50 points against the Czech center-back.

The match ended in a draw, with both sides reluctantly accepting the result.

Pulis and West Ham manager Grant exchanged a heated argument for half a minute during the post-match handshake.

Sun Yu wasn't in a hurry. He earns £2000 per appearance and can also rack up points.

As long as he keeps playing, getting a starting position is only a matter of time.

However, the 2010 European Golden Boy award caught his attention.

Wait, I've made it into the 40-person shortlist for the Golden Boy Award.

No way!
