Joseph's balls ached, on the other side, in the Arsenal club office.
Wenger also rubbed his cheeks and looked at Chen Mo who was celebrating wildly with his teammates on the screen. There was a hint of fanaticism in his gentle eyes: "Huh - tell old Jack that there is no need to follow up with Cesc Fabregas, let him Let’s look for some young defensive midfielders with stronger sweeping abilities, and their style of play must be adapted to this little guy.”
"But the boss."
The assistant understood what Wenger meant, but he still hesitated. Wenger stood up with a smile, lifted his belt, and waved his hand: "Needless to say, this kid is worth my gamble!"
"I understand boss."
The assistant nodded. He didn't ask silly questions like "Why didn't you promise to buy Fabregas first, and then bring in Chen Mo and give up Fabregas if Chen Mo left Barcelona?" He knew that Wenger's character was not good. It is possible to do such a thing, not to mention that the current situation of Arsenal is very good, so there is no need to be too anxious.
The assistant ran to make a call. Hathaway crossed her elegant legs and flipped through the folder in her hand: "Boss, I have a candidate for a sweeping midfielder. I have been observing him for a long time. He is very good. You want to Don’t you want to look at it?”
"Oh? Show me."
Wenger took the folder and his features wrinkled up when he saw the photo. He couldn't help it, the young man in the photo was too ugly.

"His physical fitness is very strong, he has enough strength and good flexibility. His footwork is not good but it is enough. And the most important point is that his running range is also very, very large! To put it simply, he and Chen Mo also has a monster-like body. The difference between the two is that Chen Mo's footwork is more delicate than him, his ability to organize offense is stronger, and his desire to attack is stronger, while he is more stable. In my opinion, the two of them are The characteristics match well and are very suitable for your favorite formation.”
Wenger read the information carefully, and Hathaway explained that she knew that although Wenger liked to use the 4-4-2 formation, in fact, the role of the left and right wings or the two full midfielders was more offensive. Sometimes in It will even turn into a 424 formation during the game!
In this case, a large space will be left in the midfield, which requires the midfielder to have strong running ability!
"I know, give me his game video."
"OK."
Wenger looked at the information and pushed his temples with his fingers. As soon as Hathaway walked to the door, Wenger shouted again: "By the way, try to contact Messi's family again."
"Okay, boss."
Not only Wenger, but also the scouts at Wulihe Stadium called the club's top management after seeing the performances of Chen Mo and Messi.
However, compared to having top strikers like Henry and Bergkamp, Wenger, who is not particularly eager for scorers, desires more for Messi. However, Messi, who is now almost fifteen years old, is just over 1.5 meters tall.
Can he continue to grow taller?
The future is unclear, Barcelona's asking price is very high, and Messi himself does not want to leave Barcelona. Most of the club's top executives are a little unsure. In the end, they still focus on Chen Mo and Rooney.
.
On the field, Chen Mo did not relax after scoring a goal. After celebrating, he immediately ran back to the area he was responsible for.
Sure enough, due to being one goal behind, Rooney started to play very hard, but unfortunately, his teammates were not strong enough. There was still a big gap between Everton's youth training and Barcelona's youth training, and the midfielder was completely suppressed by Cesc Fabregas. , coupled with Chen Mo's strong sweeping and interception ability, he couldn't get the ball in the frontcourt at all!
The Everton coach saw the team's deadlock. Taking advantage of a throw-in opportunity, he quickly adjusted the substitutions and called Rooney to his side for a few words. Then Everton changed from a 442 formation to a 352 formation.
Two high center forwards of about 1.9 meters are at the front. Rooney retreats to play as an attacking midfielder, while the midfielder's wings are raised very high.
"They want to hold it high?!"
Chen Mo was shocked. It turned out that he was right. Everton served a sideline ball. Their midfielder was average and couldn't hold the ball. At this time, Rooney suddenly retreated thirty meters to the backcourt to help receive the ball!
Fabregas immediately went up to defend, but couldn't defend him at all. Rooney made a pass, then dropped his shoulder and blocked Fabregas, and ran wildly along the middle with the ball. At the same time, Everton two A high center forward inserted into the penalty area, and the wings retreated to respond!
As soon as Rooney passed the half-time, Chen Mo rushed in front of him. This time Rooney did not go it alone. He moved the ball with the outside of his right foot to the right wing. Everton's right winger was not sloppy at all and took the ball directly down the wing. Barcelona He didn't care at all when the fullback was following him, he just kept his head down and dribbled the ball forward, and made a direct pass thirty meters away from the bottom line!
Pique struggled to fight for the ball, but he was only 1.85 meters tall and was held up by two 1.9-meter big centers. He couldn't win the ball at all. He could only watch his opponent hit the ball. Fortunately, this time The ball missed the mark and drifted towards the edge of the penalty area.
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo on the left and Rooney on the right started to compete for the landing spot at the same time, and the ball was right between them!
"He's closer than me!!"
Looking at the ball floating down in front of him and Rooney who was more than half his body ahead of him, Chen Mo's eyes flashed with cruelty, and he kicked the ground suddenly, exerting force with his left foot and lifting his right knee.
Jump!
Seeing this scene, Rooney, who was running wildly, was not timid and jumped towards Chen Mo!
Chen Mo was faster, and his jumping height was half a head higher than Rooney's. He was the first to knock the ball away, but the next moment he hit the ball, Rooney had already rushed in front of him!
People are in the air and can't help themselves!
Neither of them could stop the car, so Chen Mo had no choice but to tighten his upper arm muscles and use the strongest outer muscles of his right arm to meet him!
"boom--"
The two collided fiercely in the air, and the audience on the sidelines could even hear the muffled sound of muscles colliding, making their teeth sore.
But the parties involved, Chen Mo and Rooney, acted like nothing happened. Such a fierce collision only made the two of them a little unstable when they landed. They both looked up at the same time to look for the ball, only to see that the ball was high but not far away, and landed near the center circle! !
"Fake Squid!"
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo adjusted his balance and immediately ran towards the spot where the ball landed. Rooney, who was thrown into the dirt and was full of anger, got up using his hands and feet and chased after him!
An Everton midfielder was already standing where the ball landed. The enthusiastic Chen Mo was not polite to him. He went up to block the opponent with his back and squeezed him backwards. At this time, Chen Mo was completely on top. Every cell in his body was boiling. His movements and strength were very strong. He pushed the opponent away with just two steps. But as soon as he squeezed out the Everton midfielder, Rooney got close to him. !
"Ka Mao Beibi! Ka Mao! Ka Mao!!"
Rooney looked very excited, his face flushed, and he yelled crazily. At the same time, his chest was pressed against Chen Mo's shoulders, and his hands began to push his chest and back. His strength was far stronger than that of the midfielder. He couldn't withstand it with just his waist and abdominal strength. Chen Mo didn't care and just stretched out his hand to push, pushing with his thigh!
"These two young men moved too much. Why won't the referee call it off?"
"It seems everyone is getting angry. It's normal for young people to be competitive, but they must protect themselves!"
The commentary was babbling, but Chen Mo couldn't hear it at all. Looking at the falling ball, he tensed his thighs and took off on the spot. Rooney also took off, but unfortunately, his jumping ability was not good. Chen Mo jumped high, and his jumping height exceeded Most of Rooney's head! Then he exerted force on his waist and abdomen and swung the ball hard!
[Haaland’s hidden talent unlocked: No fear of confrontation]
A line of small words floated in the corner of his eyes. Chen Mo couldn't notice it at all at this time. He only knew that this header was very strong and the ball flew straight to the right side of the center circle, where Messi was!
"Back to defense!!!"
The offense and defense switched instantly. The Everton coach waved vigorously and shouted loudly!
Everton's defense was already in their own half. When they saw Messi taking the ball and advancing at high speed, they did not go up to the top, but immediately returned to defense. They all knew that to defend Messi alone at this time was to seek abuse!
Everton pushed back from three lines. Barcelona's Messi on the right and Francesco on the left fired both arrows. After landing, Chen Mo, who was thrusting forward, hung behind, and the three formed an inverted triangle connection!
Soon, Messi dribbled the ball to the right side of the penalty area. After approaching the defender, he began to move step by step. When the defender began to lower his center of gravity significantly, he swung his right leg and passed the ball diagonally to the back. It was Chen Mo who was running forward. direction!
"Up top! He can shoot from distance!!!"
The Everton goalkeeper yelled, and the midfielder immediately stepped forward. Looking at the rolling ball and the midfielder running from the side, Chen Mo did not hesitate and pushed directly towards the ball.
Arch push!
The ball passed through a straight arc, inserted into the space between the center back and the left back, and sent directly to the front of the penalty area.
"Oh my God, a pass went right through the defense! An extremely precise scalpel pass!"
"It's terrifying to be able to maintain such accuracy in passing while running at such high speed!"
"Is Barcelona going to score again?!"
The commentator exclaimed, and the fans craned their necks in anticipation. The next second, Messi, who had already changed direction at the moment of the return pass, led the ball directly to the right side of the goal. The Everton full-back immediately turned back to block, and at this moment he took the ball. Messi didn't shoot or stick the ball!
This position is one step inside the penalty area and the goalkeeper can't pounce!
From the corner of his eye, he spotted a familiar figure on the far left. He swung his right leg and made a cross!
The ball quickly passed over the toes of the attacking central defender and was sent to the left side of the goal. Fabregas rushed over and the Everton goalkeeper immediately moved his steps to block the near post. At this moment, the ball was passed to his feet. Fabregas pushed with his left foot, passed the ball in an inverted triangle, and the ball went directly to the center of the penalty area!
The Everton central defender fell to the ground and had not yet gotten up from the sliding tackle. His eyes were bloodshot, and he was rolling and trying to head the ball with his head. But at this moment, a gust of wind whizzed past him!
"boom!"
Powerful ejaculation without any reservation!
The ball hit the empty goal like a cannonball!
"The ball has gone in!!! The ball has gone in again!!! In the 33rd minute of the first half, Barcelona scored another goal, leading Everton 2-0! The goal was Barcelona's No. 4—— Chen——M——O!! This is both a perfect teamwork! It is also a perfect individual performance!!!”
"You're right! This is both a perfect teamwork! It's also a perfect individual performance!!! Chen Mo, an amazing super genius! There is a saying among Argentinian fans: "If you don't know what a genius is, then you Come and watch Chen Mo play football!!] It’s so terrifying! His consciousness and physical fitness are far beyond those of his peers at this level!! We, the young men from the Dragon Kingdom, can lose without complaining!”
The commentator's roar echoed in the sky. Chen Mo, who had been competing with Rooney for half an hour, was completely vented. He rushed to the corner and raised his head, turned around and punched! The next moment, Messi, Xiaofa and others rushed over!
"That's a great pass, Xiaofa!!!"
"Hahaha, you know I'm awesome!!"
"Hahaha, then I didn't win this opportunity!"
"Oh, go to hell! Haha!"
Several people celebrated wildly, and soon as more and more people gathered, the Barcelona generals hugged each other!
Not far away, Rooney, who had just chased back to the penalty area line, saw Chen Mo smiling happily in the crowd. His eyes were full of reluctance, but more of admiration and appreciation.
Compared with Rooney's sympathy, everyone in the stands looked a little depressed at Sporting Lisbon, which was about to face Barcelona in two days. Only Ronaldo looked at Chen Mo with brighter and more determined eyes, and his hands were even excited. To tremble!
.
Ronaldo's thoughts were naturally unknown to others. Soon, Barcelona's celebration was over.
Everton kicked the ball out of the center circle, and I have to say that their mentality was indeed good. After being scored two goals in 33 minutes, their mentality did not collapse, but they still followed the coach's instructions to play long passes and lobs.
However, Barcelona, which was leading by two goals, started to play more patiently. After sitting on the bench for a long time, Fabregas finally got an assist and gradually regained his confidence and the feeling of the game. He was methodical with his kicks. , with clear thinking, Everton can hardly steal the ball, and cannot control the ball at its feet. Naturally, Everton cannot organize an effective attack.
Soon, when the game entered the stoppage time of the first half, due to Fabregas's transfer, Everton's overall formation began to move to the left, and then he found the right side with a precise diagonal pass. Messi, Messi led the ball into the penalty area and successfully pushed the ball from a small angle.
In the first half, Everton lost 3-0, and Everton's overall morale fell to the bottom. The coach did not adjust them at halftime, so that just two minutes into the second half, Cesc Fabregas found an opportunity from the top of the arc. Scored a goal.
Four to zero, clock out early.
Joseph directly replaced Chen Mo and Messi, sending two players who had not gotten much playing time.
Chen Mo and Messi were replaced, and Everton's offensive and defensive pressure was reduced a lot. They tried to counterattack, but soon, not only them, but also the scouts and coaches on the sidelines discovered that Chen Mo and Messi were not on the field. , Cesc Fabregas' performance turned out to be even more brave!
Then plug it in.
Long shot.
Hit the wall.
Grab some.
When he started playing football as a core player, started directing his teammates to move and dominate the team, and started gaining more ball rights, his threat suddenly increased!
Time passed bit by bit, and soon, Barcelona scored two more goals under the leadership of Cesc Fabregas, but again, because of the failure of Chen Mo, the defensive gate, Rooney was completely liberated. He played in the back line and in the center. There was a lot of chaos in the game, and the Barcelona midfielder who came on as a substitute could not stop him at all, and the final score was fixed at 6 to 2.
"This guy is so fierce."
Looking at Rooney, who was panting with his hands on his hips and looking dissatisfied, Chen Mo expressed his sincere admiration. Messi next to him also nodded. As a pure offensive player, he understood even more how brilliant Rooney's performance just was.
At this moment, Rooney high-fived his teammates and walked to the Barcelona bench. He pulled his collar and looked at Chen Mo: "Change the jersey."
