"That big guy Ibrahimovic wants to challenge someone to a duel!"
"What? Where?!"
"Right in front! The opponent is Arsenal's Chen!"
"Ibrahimovic and Arsenal?! Haha, there's something good to watch!"
The crowd was surging, and the crowd around them was getting bigger and bigger. Countless people stood on tiptoes, stretched out their necks, and looked expectantly at the two people in the open space in the middle. Their eyes were filled with the look of watching a good show.
Ibrahimovic is not the best striker in Europe, but he is definitely one of the most talked about and well-known strikers. Wherever he is, there will always be some dumbfounding things, not to mention that he and Arsenal have a past that is known to many people.
Around 2000, Wenger invited 17-year-old Ibrahimovic, who was still playing in the Swedish league, to go to Arsenal. However, after the two met, Wenger asked Ibrahimovic to participate in a trial training and have a closer look before deciding whether to sign.
Arsenal was at its peak at that time. Bergkamp was in his early thirties and Henry was twenty-three. The team had just won the Premier League and FA Cup double crown from Manchester United. But even facing Arsenal like this, it was difficult for Arsenal to win. Bu still thinks that Wenger's failure to sign a contract with him is a sign of contempt, and then there is the famous saying - [Zlatan never accepts trial training], and now, Ibrahimovic's opponent is Arsenal's Chen Mo
After landing in the Premier League this season and performing superbly, outside news media have dug deeper and deeper into Chen Mo.
Before November, reporters broke the news that Wenger had already contacted Chen Mo when he was playing in Japan in the Sponsorship Cup in 2001. Later, he contacted Chen Mo's family many times in order to bring Chen Mo to Arsenal.
However, these were just rumors, and at first the audience and fans didn’t really believe it.
Until some time ago, Manchester United's chief scout released a photo of the 2003 Copa del Rey semi-finals. When the Premier League was still preparing for the intense league match, Wenger, dressed as an agent, mysteriously appeared in the Bernabeu stand watching Chen Mo's game.
After Wenger showed a suitcase of research materials to Chen Fei and Lopez in the cafe, the whole world knew how much Wenger liked Chen Mo.
On the one hand, he is trying out before considering whether to sign a contract, and on the other hand, he is chasing after him and continuing to follow up for several years.
"Let Zlatan feel your courage!"
Looking at Chen Mo who was stepping on the ball with his right foot in front of him, Ibrahimovic's relaxed eyes hid a hint of excitement. He admired a tough guy like Chen Mo, but he was still dissatisfied in his heart!
Soon, as the guest host Antonella shouted, the street ball game began, and the audience became more and more excited and expectant. However, Chen Mo, who was holding the ball on the offensive side, did not dribble forward, but stepped on the ball with his right foot to watch. Xiang Ibrahimovic, a provocative smile appeared on his lips.
"Come, baby."
"This guy wants me to be robbed!"
As a professional player, Ibrahimovic obviously knew Chen Mo's intention, but he still did not hesitate. Amid the cheers of the audience, he rushed in front of Chen Mo and pressed closely. Chen Mo did not do anything to protect the ball with his back, and kept kicking left and right. Flashing around.
Seeing this scene, Iniesta, who was drinking tea at the door of the coffee shop, put down his hot cup and shook his head with a smile: "Xiao Mo still likes to play psychological warfare as always."
"It's normal. After all, everyone knows Ibrahimovic's face-saving character, not to mention that this small scene has nothing to do with the game."
Ramos nodded and looked at Chen Mo with a hint of admiration and a lot of sighs in his eyes. As an old enemy who has been fighting since childhood, he has studied Chen Mo a lot.
Chen Mo's technical characteristics on the offensive end are fast speed and sufficient strength. He can make large-scale acceleration and changes of direction while dribbling the ball at high speed. The impact is very strong, but in a small area with no sprinting space, it is difficult to overcome his physical fitness. A better player than him, not to mention playing football on a pedestrian street wearing jeans and Martin boots.
In this situation, if you think about it, you have to catch the opponent's mistakes, and the opponent is most likely to make mistakes when they are attacking, but generally speaking, few players will take the initiative to attack when they are not absolutely sure, so no matter what at this time Whether it is dribbling the ball forward to intentionally expose a small flaw, or saying some provocative trash talk, you must find a way to provoke the opponent to attack.
"However, facing a big man like Ibrahimovic with super strength and super aggressiveness, can he protect the ball?"
With a trace of suspicion flashing in his eyes, Ramos picked up a piece of pizza and put it in his mouth. Not only him, but Torres next to him turned his head to look at Chen Mo, his eyes also flashing with thought. Next door, Rooney was eating a turkey leg by the window on the second floor.
He is the player here who has had the most physical confrontations with Chen Mo and pressed Chen Mo the most times. He knows how powerful Chen Mo's ability to protect the ball is, and it is not just about strength!
"HOOOOO! Zlatan, you're being played!"
"Wow, I didn't expect Chen to be able to protect the ball like this. He's a bit cool."
"Damn it! He's so good at sex?!"
The chatter of passers-by reached the cochlea. When he stretched out his foot again to try to steal the ball, the moment before his toe touched the ball, the ball was pulled back by Chen Mo's left foot. He looked at the ball that was so close but could not be broken. , Ibrahimovic's expression gradually became serious.
He knew that Chen Mo had a strong ability to protect the ball. To be precise, everyone knew this. After all, Chen Mo was one of the players who touched the ball the most and had the fewest steals in the five major leagues in the past half season. But in the past, Chen Mo The impression left on the world is that he relies on physical strength to protect the ball and rarely shows fancy moves, but now
Ibrahimovic is a bit sore. Chen Mo, who is dribbling the ball, doesn't know what he is thinking, but even if he knew, he would only smile crookedly. You must know that he has completely absorbed [Golden Ronaldinho] a long time ago, plus he knows that he The poor natural foot feel is a big pitfall, so every day I will pay more attention to the training to develop foot feel such as bumping the ball.
It's just that in the game, his position is said to be the attacking midfielder, but because Wenger's football philosophy is very radical, both full-backs, including Essien, the defensive midfielder, need to be responsible for inserting behind when attacking.
Many times, even if he gets the ball in the frontcourt, there are often only midfielder Flamini and two central defenders behind him. He must be extra cautious to protect the ball, so he is seeking stability most of the time, unless he is dribbling the ball forward to break through. , otherwise they rarely use fancy moves that are more likely to make mistakes.
But that was a professional game where no mistakes could be made, and now it was just a relaxing game of wild football, and there was no need to be so serious at all.
Soon, as the body gradually warmed up, the mood gradually increased. Amidst the cheers of the audience and passers-by, various fancy moves such as ox tail, fried meatballs, Marseille slalom came one after another, one to zero, two to two. Zero, three to zero
"His footwork is improving so fast!"
Outside the cafe, Ramos and Torres widened their eyes slightly, while Iniesta, who was drinking tea just now, his expression gradually became serious. Ramos and Torres could not play in the Champions League this year, but they just lamented that they had not seen each other for a long time. Chen Mo's progress is so rapid, but Iniesta is different.
Barcelona will play in the Champions League this year. As long as they defeat Manchester United in the round of 16, they are likely to meet Arsenal in the Champions League!
"What a scary guy."
Iniesta shook his head slightly, with a flash of strong fighting spirit in his eyes. However, this fighting spirit did not last long. Just when Chen Mo once again pulled the ball backward to avoid Ibrahimovic's upward attack, heavy snow suddenly fell in the sky.
Looking at the falling snowflakes in front of him, Chen Mo, who was free of space, did not shoot. He rubbed his right foot and picked the ball into the crowd, causing passers-by to rush for it.
Glancing at the enthusiastic crowd, he turned around and looked at Ibrahimovic with a sigh of relief: "Let's compete again next time we have a chance. The ground is going to become slippery."
"Zlatan is just getting ready to unleash his power!"
"Okay, okay, everything you said is right."
Ibrahimovic refused to admit defeat. Chen Mo rolled his eyes, shook his head and turned to leave. At this time, Ibrahimovic's voice came from behind: "Listen, I will definitely kill you in the Champions League!"
"Okay, okay, but the premise is that you can go to the finals, haha."
"This guy is so arrogant!"
Seeing Chen Mo take the coat from Yue Chixun, looking like a winner in life, Ibrahimovic's nose was almost crooked with anger, but Chen Mo didn't bother to talk to this guy who likes to cause trouble anymore, and simply talked with Iniesta and others After saying hello, the group of four walked into the mall cinema.
.
Christmas is a festival of gunfire.
The magnificent shopping mall was full of sweet couples, as well as some students who went upstairs to sing karaoke and watch movies. Chen Mo originally wanted to go directly to the movies, but the two girls couldn't walk when they saw the clothing store. , under the guidance of the chirping shopping guide, I looked here and there, and my mood was very high.
Chen Mo and Messi had no choice but to follow behind and act as little followers.
But soon, Antonella gradually calmed down. She had no choice but to do it. Yue Chixun was now a young rich woman, and the shops she visited were all very high-end. Antonella, who came from an ordinary family, couldn't afford them.
"An Niu, how do you feel about this dress?"
"Not bad."
Catching Antonella's emotional changes, Yue Chixun, who was trying on a dress, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and turned his head to give Chen Mo a subtle wink.
Not to the point.
Chen Mo on the couch rolled his eyes, but quickly gave in to Yue Chixun's wrinkled nose expression and bumped his shoulder into Macy, who was watching TV next to him: "Hey, aren't you going to give An Niu a gift for Christmas?"
"Ah? What gift?"
Macy was stunned, her expression was confused, and Chen Mo was speechless, "I just bought some clothes for An Niu or something. Hey, after the awards tomorrow, we will go back to our respective homes. Did you know that, don't you want to leave some good things for her? remember?"
"Ah! Oh. But wouldn't this be bad?"
"Stop nagging, go quickly!"
".Hey, hey, don't push me!"
Under Chen Mo's push, Messi, whose ears were almost red, went to Antonella's side and said something carefully. He couldn't hear it, but even from such a distance, Chen Mo could clearly feel two blushes floating on Antonella's face.
"Hey, Leo knows that if you buy a gift for Anyu, someone will still be indifferent."
Yue Chixun sat down next to Chen Mo, leaning his head on Chen Mo's shoulder, muttering something, but with a smile on his face, Chen Mo rolled his eyes: "Please, old couples like us should not engage in such sensational things. "
"Hey, what an old couple! They're only twenty years old!"
"Okay, okay, you are the youngest."
"snort."
Seeing that Chen Mo's expression was a bit perfunctory, Yue Chixun put his hands on his hips and hummed. Finally, he leaned into Chen Mo's ear and breathed out like a blue: "By the way, I just chose a pair of lace suspender stockings."
"Yeah?! Where is it?!"
Chen Mo regained his energy. Yuechi Xun rolled his eyes and stretched out his slender fingers to tap Chen Mo's forehead: "What a lustful man. I lied to you. How could I wear such obscene things."
".Not interesting."
"Not interesting? Oh, that's it, then I won't wear it at night."
"Huh?! Didn't you buy it?"
"Then I'll take it and throw it away?"
"No, no, no, no, it's not easy to make money."
"snort!"
The two of them were bickering, and over there, Messi also bought a fat white down jacket for Antonella. Antonella's skin was dark, so Chen Mo didn't look good in such a big white down jacket. But seeing the affection on their faces, Chen Mo was wise enough not to say anything disappointing.
After buying clothes and shopping around, it was almost time to watch, so I headed to the cinema on the fourth floor.
Macy wanted to watch some horror movies. Chen Mo was super scared of horror movies. When he was a child, he accompanied his father to watch an old corpse in a mountain village. As a result, he didn't dare to get up at night to pee during the summer vacation.
I originally thought that there would be no niche horror films during a popular time like Christmas, but I didn't expect that there would be a Thai horror film "Ghost".
Thai and Japanese horror movies were very scary, and I didn’t dare to watch them. However, I couldn’t stand Macy’s jelly-like eyes and the contemptuous looks of the two girls, so I finally walked into the screening room where the audience was in groups of twos and threes.
"I'm a little sleepy! Let's sleep for a while. Call me when you're done."
With the low-pitched sound in his ears and looking at the depressing preview screen on the giant screen, Chen Mo sat in his seat and swallowed, preparing for a wave of pretending to be dead.
Looking at the slightly trembling back of his hand holding the handle of the seat, Yue Chixun's big eyes turned into crescent moons. He turned sideways and stroked Chen Mo's thigh with his left hand, sliding it up, "Don't be afraid, I'm not here."
The tone was full of temptation, and the movements were very provocative. The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. He looked at Yuechi Xun, who had his head close to the side. His big watery eyes were right in front of him. Chen Mo choked on his breath, swallowed his saliva, and leaned his head. At this moment , the lights in the entire cinema dimmed.
【Crunch——】
"Damn it! Here it comes!"
A sharp sound of pushing the door swept out from the speakers, and then, something that looked like a human but not human appeared on the big screen. Catching this scene from the corner of his eye, Chen Mo trembled and immediately reached out to cover his face, but his strong curiosity Let him look out through his fingers unconsciously.
".Should you be so exaggerated?"
Knowing that Chen Mo was afraid of watching ghost movies, but he didn't expect to be so scared, Yue Chixun rolled his eyes, raised the armrest in the middle of the chair, moved his round buttocks and squeezed into Chen Mo's arms, hugging his neck: "Here, I'll give you a hug."
Is there any benefit to being afraid of watching ghost movies?
Chen Mo felt a little relieved to have the warm fragrance and jade in his arms, but soon his expression became uncomfortable again. He had no choice but to panic.
It became more and more uncomfortable. Chen Mo had no choice but to put his right hand into his pocket and carefully adjust his posture. However, Yue Chixun, whose ears were already red after not moving twice, put his elbow on his stomach and said, "Don't move." !Big pervert!”
"But I feel uncomfortable."
".I really admire you!"
Yuechi Xun glanced sideways and raised his body slightly, "Are you okay?"
"kindness"
"Okay! Watch the movie!"
Staring fiercely again, Yue Chixun sat in his arms with a pretty face red. After the small episode just now, Chen Mo felt a little distracted, but soon, as the movie began to enter a startling and terrifying stage, Chen Mo turned off the movie.
Thai horror movies focus on psychological horror, which is okay when you watch it, but the more you think about it later, the more you will be scared. At the same time, because the background of such horror movies is usually at home or school, it is very easy to make people think of it.
The more active the thinking, the better the memory, and the stronger the deduction ability, the more serious the interference will be from this point. This is Chen Mo's specialty. He can observe the positions of twenty people in the game through a few head shakes. Just remember it and subconsciously calculate the possible movements of the opponent.
Fortunately, some time ago, Wang Zihao from the Dragon Kingdom sent a message called "Zhu Xian". Since then, Messi, Anniu, Yuechi and Xun were watching horror movies with gusto. Chen Mo took out his Nokia and held Yuechi with one hand. Xun's waist, looking sideways.
"This film is pretty good, no wonder it was released in Italy."
"It's okay, the plot is tight, and the twist at the ending is a bit scary. Xiao Mo, what do you think?"
"Baguio is so miserable, oooooh."
"."
"."
".You guy, huh! Let's ignore him!"
On the Italian street where the evening breeze was swaying, Yuechi Xun glared at Chen Mo's erroneous answer and turned around to find An Niu for comfort. However, when he turned around, he found that Messi and An Niu had fallen side by side behind him. Whispering whispers.
"What kind of people are they, hiss - it's so cold."
The evening breeze of January was very cold. Yue Chixun shivered, pulled up his down jacket, and came to Chen Mo to hold his arm: "I told you, the winner of the Golden Boy Award will be announced tomorrow. Are you nervous?"
"ah?"
Chen Mo was stunned and shook his head: "Okay, this award was only launched last year, and it is only for players under the age of 21, and the gold content is not high. If you have the best, it doesn't matter if you don't have it. Compared with this, I care more about the future. The Champions League, the Champions League championship is much more important than this Golden Boy Award."
"That's right. By the way, isn't Mr. Wenger planning to buy that Di Maria? Is there any progress?"
"I think he will buy it. Mr. Wenger talked to me before coming to Italy this time and said that he hopes to let me take care of this fellow from Rosario. However, the labor certificate is very troublesome. Even if he joins Arsenal in the winter window, he will probably not be able to take care of him." He has to be rented out to play for a period of time, because the fire far away cannot save the fire nearby."
Chen Mo frowned slightly, and Yue Chixun tilted his head in confusion: "Want to rent out? Isn't there a genius clause?"
"It's not that simple. When applying for the genius clause, the Football Association sent a small team to review whether the player was a genius. For example, like me at the time, Mr. Wenger was able to use this clause against me. In addition to the high transfer fee, the main reason Just because I performed very well in the Copa del Rey, the whole world knows that I am a top talent, but that Di Maria is not even in the first team of the Argentine League and cannot apply for the talent clause."
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly, and Yue Chixun looked worried: "Then the situation is not very troublesome now?"
"It's not particularly troublesome. We now have Mr. Bergkamp on the right, and his skills are completely OK. He gets better and better as he gets older. The main problem is that his impact is not strong enough due to his age, and his physical fitness is not enough. But Vieira Isn’t it time to recover from the injury? Mr. Wenger has been leading us to practice new tactics recently.”
"New tactics?"
"Well, it's a very radical tactic. Hey, forget it, you won't understand even if I say it."
".What, don't look down on others!"
"Are you sure you want to listen? Don't say that I can just recite sutras, haha."
“Forget it then”
Chatting in the snow, the two of them soon strolled downstairs of the hotel. Looking back, Messi and Antonella were already hanging far behind. Chen Mo was about to wait, but was dragged in directly by Yuechi Xun. elevator.
Looking at Yuechi Xun who returned to the room with him, Chen Mo raised his eyebrows strangely: "I said, you don't want Xiaomei to sleep there, right?"
"What if? Do you want to sleep with me or Leo?"
".Ahem, I'll throw his clothes over."
"Hey, man."
Yue Chixun was taking off her makeup in the bathroom, and Chen Mo moved Messi's clothes to the next room with quick hands and feet. They had duplicate room cards, so there was no need to worry about them not being able to enter the room.
After returning to his room and closing the door, listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom and looking at the two single beds, Chen Mo scratched his chin and without hesitation, directly merged the two beds.
"This is so comfortable to watch."
Chen Mo showed a satisfied smile. At this moment, Yue Chixun's call suddenly came from the bathroom.
"Xiao Mo! Come on!"
"What's wrong!"
The voice was urgent. Chen Mo was startled. He quickly opened the door and ran into the bathroom without turning on the light. His eyes fell into darkness. He quickly stretched out his hand to touch the wall, but the next second, a delicate body was covered with water vapor, hot and cold. He jumped on me like a koala, and then his lips were blocked.
His lower lip was lightly bitten, and his breath hit the wing of his nose. Chen Mo's eyes widened for a moment, and he saw the enchanting back covered in black gauze through the reflection of light in the glass of the sink. Then, a pair of shy eyes appeared in front of him.
"Hug me to bed."
.
The next day at noon, hotel restaurant.
"You two didn't sleep well last night?"
Looking at Messi and Antonella with big dark circles under their eyes, Chen Mo, who was eating eggs, asked casually. Messi looked awkward, but Antonella was straightforward and rolled her eyes: "If someone is banging next to you, If you bump into the wall all night, you won’t be able to sleep well, right?”
"Cough cough cough to reduce swelling and itching. I couldn't help myself for a while. I'm sorry."
Chen Mo almost spat out a mouthful of bread, but he quickly adjusted his attitude, his face not red, and his heart not beating.
What's there to be ashamed of!
But compared to Chen Mo, a cheeky man, Yue Chixun next to him quietly blushed, stretched out his hand to grab Chen Mo's thigh, and quickly changed the subject: "Eat quickly, the time for the award ceremony is almost here!"
.
The Golden Boy Award is an award founded in 2003 by Italy's "Torino Sport".
Although it was founded only one year ago, the selection team is mainly composed of top football media from all over the world and well-known reporters in the football industry. In addition, the organizer spent a lot of money this year to invite a player who scored 13 goals in the 1958 World Cup. French legendary superstar - Juste Fontaine.
Therefore, this award is also an award with good gold content and influence.
only.
To the surprise of the management of Turin Sports News, the Golden Boy Award, which had just been founded for one year, caused huge differences among the judges!
The core of the disagreement is between Chen Mo and Messi and Rooney.
Whether it's the Golden Boy Award, the Golden Globe Award, or the World Footballer, the judges who vote for these awards mostly use their performance based on last year's performance. But Chen Mo didn't play at all in La Liga last year. After a few games.
There are indeed phenomenal performances, such as the 40-yard ultra-long-distance free kick that shocked the world, but because of the small number of appearances, the statistics are not good. The same is true for Messi, and the statistics are not even as good as Chen Mo.
Both of them started to experience data explosions after being supported by the team this season. Rooney scored 15 goals and three assists at Everton last season. His performance after joining the giant Manchester United this season is also impressive. Remarkable, he has already secured his main position.
On one side are Chen Mo and Messi, whose statistics have exploded in the past half of the season, but have not yet passed the test of time; on the other side is Rooney, who had outstanding statistics last season and has continued to be efficient.
Everyone has their own merits, so it’s not easy to choose, and even if Rooney is removed, will the award be given to Chen Mo or Messi?
Chen Mo is definitely the strongest midfielder among the younger generation under the age of 21, but the same goes for Messi. As long as the judges who have watched Barcelona games this season, no one can't see that Messi takes the ball one-on-one on the right wing. Terrifying lethality!
There is no choice at all!
Both of them are dominant monsters at the same age!
[Who will win the prize? I feel it depends on whether the judges prefer passing or scoring.]
For a moment, Guardiola's interview speech came to the minds of many judges. Finally, "2004 European Golden Boy Award Winner - Mo·Chen·StabiiiiileEEE!!!"
As the host's voice sounded through the microphone to the entire hall, the photographer immediately focused the camera on Chen Mo, who was wearing a black suit in the first row.
Chen Mo didn't show too much excitement. He turned around and hugged Messi, who was a little jealous but couldn't suppress his smile and had two dimples on his face.
"The future is yours."
"What the hell, go get the award! Bastard!"
"Ha ha!"
After joking with Messi and nodding with Iniesta and others, under the gaze of twenty of the world's top geniuses, Chen Mo stood up with a smile, shook his collar, walked up to the podium, and stood up from Juste. ·Fontaine took the Golden Boy Award trophy in his hand, and then the flashlight was blinding.
.
[The suspense ends! 2004 Golden Boy Award winner-Chen Mo! 】
[Chen Mo’s acceptance speech: This award is of great significance to me. It is the first trophy of sufficient weight in my life. I would like to thank my relatives, friends and my girlfriend,
At the same time, I would also like to thank those seniors and mentors who have guided me on my growth path. Without their encouragement, support and guidance, I would not be where I am today. Well, that's all I have to say, I'll leave the rest after I win the Champions League. 】
【UEFA Champions League Champion! Arrogant or confident? Everything will be revealed in the Champions League knockout rounds two months later! 】
【Shock! According to unknown sources, Arsenal may face a huge debt crisis! ! ! 】
[The Times: Investing in the future, Arsenal will sign Rosario Central’s right winger Angel Di Maria in the winter window! According to currently known information, the Argentine left-footed right winger cannot trigger the genius clause, and Arsenal may loan him to the Belgian league! 】
[The Telegraph: It is very obvious that Wenger is consciously cultivating the Argentinian gang at Arsenal. Perhaps with a background in economics, he has begun to realize the terrible financial pressure Arsenal will face in the next few years. 】
[The Sun: The rise of a dynasty? No! ! ! With the current financial pressure Arsenal is facing, if they fail to win the Champions League this season and receive sky-high broadcast shares and championship bonuses, they will have to rely on selling players to repay their huge loans when the summer window opens! 】
[Daily Mail: Arsenal’s transfer budget for this winter window: 0. 】
[Top secret news: American billionaire Kroenke intends to acquire shares in Arsenal! 】
The Premier League does not have a winter break, so even in January when the winter window opens, the team still has to face an extremely intensive schedule, and the players who have no rest are also the major football media.
Compared with the fatigue of the players, these reporters and media are much more excited. There are endless new reports every day, but the winter window is usually about strengthening the team. There are rarely the kind of big news that shocks the football world, but just At this time, I don’t know who leaked Arsenal’s poor financial situation!
Suddenly, the outside world was in turmoil, and countless media began to focus on Arsenal's extremely poor financial situation!
This aspect didn't affect Chen Mo much. He didn't like to pay attention to things that he couldn't change at all. That would only cause mental exhaustion. And after Christmas night, he returned to London and completely fell in love with Yuechi Xun. They live a serious, shameless couple life.
However, this 220,000-pound house is a townhouse. The backyards of each house are close to each other. They are relatively close. It is inconvenient to do some things and can be easily seen. In addition, as the reputation becomes more and more The bigger it gets, the more reporters appear nearby.
To this end, after discussing for a while, the two spent nearly one million pounds to buy a three-story, 300-square-meter red house near Clissold Park, with a balcony swimming pool, a gym, and even a rare hot spring room in the backyard. Single-family house with brick spire.
This area is located in the Islington community, which is not a wealthy area. I chose this area mainly because it is very close to Arsenal Club and the Emirates Stadium under construction. It can be reached by car in about ten minutes, or you can even go there by jogging. And it's not far from Wolji Xun's university, ten kilometers away in a straight line.
The most important point is that there is relatively little traffic near this villa. Whether you are doing business or living a normal life, it is much quieter and freer. Even if you wear something cooler at home with the heating on, no one will notice.
The villa is fully decorated, and it only needs to be replenished with furniture and lightly renovated. Chen Mo is not interested in buying furniture. The only requirement is to install some training facilities in the backyard and then raise the fence height.
The walls were raised, and Sima Zhao's intentions were known to all passersby.
Yue Chixun rolled his eyes, but naturally after some false excuses, he was pinned down in the backyard.
Life is comfortable when you have money!
but
Although his personal life was very comfortable and comfortable, as the days passed, the team began to experience turmoil.
There are countless news bombardments every day, and the team has indeed not strengthened the right wing. [Is the team's financial problem really a problem? ! ], the mentality of many players began to be affected.
On January 24, 2005, the day Di Maria arrived in London, in the twenty-fourth round of the Premier League, Arsenal, which had been undefeated in 63 games before, was upset by the weak Newcastle team at Highbury at home!
The undefeated army has been defeated!
Spanning three seasons, he defeated countless strong opponents, but ended up falling at the hands of a weak team. Not to mention other players, even Chen Mo, who was always full of fighting spirit, rarely fell into depression, and he gave Di Maria a try. The dinner was a bit dull.
However, as a rookie who could not even play in the main team of the A-League before, in Di Maria's eyes, Chen Mo, who is now famous, is still willing to take time to welcome himself, a relatively unknown compatriot, and even allows him to stay in the country despite being under so much pressure. He was already very grateful for the stay at home.
Di Maria stayed at home for three days. On the last day of the winter window, he was loaned to the Belgian League due to labor certificate issues.
What awaits him next is either to work hard for three years to obtain a Belgian passport, or to make a name for himself before the 2006 World Cup and be recruited into the national team, or to show great talent in a period of time, giving Wenger the confidence to go to the Football Association. Apply for Genius Terms!
However, these things were not within the scope of Chen Mo's consideration. With the loss to Newcastle on the 24th, the atmosphere in the team's locker room began to become very delicate.
In the twenty-fifth round of the Premier League on February 2, the demoralized Arsenal lost to the menacing Manchester United at Highbury at home!
Lost two games in a row at home!
Such explosive news instantly ignited the entire media world. There are more and more reports about Arsenal from the outside world. The trend of public opinion has changed from optimistic to worried, and then from worried to negative!
The atmosphere of the entire team is getting heavier and heavier, and people are panicking!
Fortunately, on February 6th, Arsenal defeated Aston Villa 3-1 in an away game, which was able to recover some disadvantages, but they lost to Crystal Palace in an upset on February 15th!
After losing three games, Arsenal's league points were directly overtaken by Chelsea and slipped to second place in the league!
The league slipped to second place, but the team did not plummet. On February 19, in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Arsenal defeated the visiting Sheffield United 4-1 at home and advanced to the quarter-finals!
Either an upset or a big win. Affected by the external media, Arsenal's status fluctuates greatly, one by one and another by ghost.
If it were normal times, Wenger could take his time to adjust his status. After all, the winter window has been closed, and outside reporters and media have not reported as crazy as last month, but the reality does not leave him much time.
.
February 23rd, the weather was sunny and sunny.
Carrying a cylindrical suitcase, Chen Mo squatted at the door to put on his shoes. Yuechi Xun, who was wearing home clothes, walked behind him carrying a lunch box package: "I prepared some sushi for you, let's eat in the car later."
"Very virtuous, Xiaoxun."
Taking the lunch box, Chen Mo showed a big smile, rubbed Yue Chixun's little head, and was about to say something. At this time, the sound of a bus stopping was heard outside the door. Chen Mo leaned over and kissed the watery little mouth, "Then I'm leaving, stay safe at home alone."
"I know, so do you."
"Yeah."
Waving his hands, under the gaze of Yue Chixun, Chen Mo pushed the door open and looked up. He saw a red and white bus leaning against the shade of the trees on the roadside. Through the glass, he could see that Wenger and others were already on the bus. , Without hesitation, Chen Mo quickly ran to the car, but as soon as he got on the car, he found that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the car.
"Dennis, don't you don't fly?"
Standing on the stairs at the front of the car, feeling everyone's gaze, Chen Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at the blond Bergkamp in the first row next to Wenger in a strange way.
On the first day he entered Arsenal, he knew that because he almost suffered two air crashes, one of which was even because the national team lost a match, which led to fans planting explosives on the plane, Bergkamp never flew. In the Champions League group stage, Bergkamp was all about trains, ships, and trains. But this time he is going to Italy to face Inter Milan. Crossing the ocean will definitely involve flying.
"This time is different."
Bergkamp looked serious. He raised his eyelids and glanced at Chen Mo. Then he stood up and looked behind him. His cold eyes swept across everyone's face: "Everyone is here. I want to say a few words." .”
Hearing Bergkamp's voice and feeling his eyes, even Henry, who had been listening to music with headphones on, took off his headphones.
Feeling everyone's eyes focused on him, Bergkamp tried his best to force a smile on his face in the rickety carriage. He was not used to smiling and seemed a little awkward.
"I believe everyone in this category knows that a lot of things have happened to the team during this period, including recruitment issues, the end of the unbeaten record, and injuries to Vieira and Pires.
Yes, these things can change our mentality, just like after the airplane incident when I was young, I never dared to fly again, but uh, I actually don’t know how to put it.
In short, what I want to say is that most of you are very young, and under the guidance of Mr. Wenger over the years, Arsenal has performed very well and has been able to enter the Champions League every year. Maybe you may feel that even if it did not succeed this time , and next time.
But in fact, it has been 19 years since I made my debut with Ajax in 1986, and I have only participated in the Champions League six times in total, four of which ended in the group stage. I have reached the knockout rounds of the Champions League three times, and my career is already long enough compared to most players.
What I want to tell you is that this year is our most promising year to reach the top. We have a gorgeous offensive line, a fighting and creative midfield, and an indestructible defense with the best defense in the world. The best coach ever!
Such a lineup, well, what I want to say is, I wonder if you have heard of an ancient poem from the Dragon Kingdom written by Xiao Mo, called [I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because I am in this mountain].
This is a very philosophical verse, and maybe at this time you are all people in the mountains like me before. When you are involved in certain events, you are completely unaware that you may have stood at the third stage of life. A fork in the road, and then unknowingly let the flash of destiny that may only appear a few times in a lifetime slip through the fingertips.
Those who waste opportunities will be punished as they should. As football players, you should know this very well. "
Having said this, Bergkamp closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His cold-cold eyes gradually became introverted, scanning the players' faces one by one: "Now, are you willing to give up this excellent opportunity and continue?" To sink, or to regroup, carry the name of Arsenal, and carry your own surname on your back to reach the top of Europe?"
