I Just Can Score

The Champions League group stage is over.

Sixteen of the thirty-two teams were eliminated, eight of the eliminated teams qualified for the UEFA Cup, and the remaining eight were completely eliminated. The second half of the schedule has nothing to do with European competitions.

It must be very depressing to be eliminated in the UEFA Champions League group stage, but most of the eliminated teams are prepared, because they are not a strong team in the first place, and it is very normal to be eliminated.

There is a very special team, the Serie A champion last season, the focus of the summer --

Inter Milan!

Inter Milan is a giant in Italy, but in the past ten years, they have been suppressed by AC Milan and Juventus for a long time. Not only did they fail to win the championship in the domestic league, but they rarely achieved results in the European arena.

The last two years have been different.

Everyone can see the rise of Inter Milan. They have won consecutive Serie A championships, but they want to prove their rise. It is not enough to win the championship at home. They must also achieve good results in the European arena. Get a Champions League trophy.

Inter Milan chairman Moratti pinned his hopes on Mourinho. Mourinho is a very famous champion coach. He led Porto to win the Champions League. Coaching Chelsea for three seasons was also very successful, two consecutive seasons Dominating the Premier League and leading Chelsea to the top four in the Premier League, it was just bad luck not to win the Champions League.

Many people said this summer that if Mourinho stays at Chelsea, he may be able to beat Manchester United to win the Champions League.

Unfortunately, he left.

But in any case, Mourinho's coaching ability has been recognized all over the world.

Moratti chose to trust Mourinho.

Mourinho signed a big contract, and he also took up the coach of Inter Milan with high spirits, hoping to lead the team to achieve good results in Europe.

result……

The group is eliminated!

At the moment when he was confirmed to be eliminated, Mourinho's expression was very serious, but he felt very miserable in his heart. He didn't know how to face Moratti who trusted him.

Yes.

He is very grateful to Moratti.

Moratti is a charismatic chairman,

When he chooses to trust someone, he will fully believe it unconditionally. Mourinho has experienced Chelsea's distrust, so he naturally hopes that the club can give him trust.

Now he finds himself ashamed to face Moratti and the Inter Milan fans.

Did Inter Milan play poorly?

No!

Mourinho said no for sure, because he thought the team got all the points it deserved.

In Group C, Barcelona is the strongest.

Mourinho has rich experience in playing against Barcelona. He knows how strong Barcelona is. It is not surprising that he just took over Inter Milan and scored one draw and one loss.

But because of this result, Inter Milan was eliminated from the group.

because……

Newcastle United!

"Group C is indeed the group of death!" This is for Inter Milan, Newcastle United played too well, or their No. 13 Zhen Shaolong performed so well, the average number of goals in the Champions League reached three, In the away games with Barcelona and Inter Milan, they all scored four goals individually.

Any team facing an opponent with players who performed so well has absolutely no hope of winning the game.

"Inter Milan is doing well enough!" Mourinho sighed long, unfortunately, the media and fans only look at the results.

Football is a winner's game, and the process sounds important, but it really doesn't matter at all.

Mourinho knows this better than anyone else, so he played defensive football without hesitation, but in the end he finished third in the group and could only accept the fate of being relegated to the UEFA Cup.

There is no way.

The Italian media also seem to be very ironic, because Inter Milan won the league championship consecutively, but they couldn't even qualify for the group stage in the European arena. Among the other three Italian teams, Fiorentina, like Inter Milan, are in the group stage. In the third place, Juventus and Roma both qualified first in the group and advanced to the top sixteen of the Champions League.

This is a bit ironic.

The Italian media's flatness towards Inter Milan can be imagined.

On the plane back to Milan, Mourinho sat alone in the front seat, thinking carefully about the issue of being eliminated. He felt that the reason lies in Zhen Shaolong. , Even hit the group five consecutive victories.

Mourinho felt that he should advise Moratti to bring Zhen Shaolong to Inter Milan immediately, "Hurry up and buy it!"

"Must buy!"

Mourinho didn't think so before.

When he first signed the contract last summer, Moratti asked him if he wanted to compete for Zhen Shaolong. At that time, he replied proudly, "No, my team does not lack stars!"

"It's like the kind of person who pays attention to individual performance and completely ignores teamwork. I won't let him play when he comes."

This made Moratti heave a sigh of relief.

As an Italian oil tycoon, "the family has mines" is a modest statement. There are several large oil fields in the Middle East, all of which belong to the Moratti family, but the family is a family, and the investment in Inter Milan is based on his personal assets. Zhen Shaolong's net worth It's too high, and it's too much investment to buy such a star.

Now……

Mourinho found that Zhen Shaolong was very important.

It doesn't matter if there are such stars who are like "simply a goal bug" in the team. The important thing is that the opponent's lineup must not have them.

Otherwise terrible!

————

The perspective turns back to Newcastle United.

After finishing the last round of the Champions League group stage, Keegan gave all the players a holiday with a big wave of his hand. He will take his assistant coach to Nyon, Switzerland to participate in the draw ceremony for the knockout round of the Champions League round of 16.

Holidays are good news.

The continuous training and competition made everyone feel very tired, not only physically exhausted, but also mentally exhausted. For the past three weeks, they have lived the same life every day.

Training is the main thing.

The game was not easy at all.

After finally having a vacation, the plan for many players is to recuperate at home.

right.

rest!

Everyone knows what to face next. The intensive schedule is almost over, which also means that a new intensive schedule is about to start. After Christmas, the leagues of other countries will rest, and the Premier League will continue to play, and the intensity of the competition will be even higher. .

They must take some time to rest.

Zhen Shaolong's plan is the same. It's been too tiring recently. He is going to take a good rest. It's a pity that there is no professional masseur at home. "It would be great if Reina was here."

He misses Reina a little bit.

Lena is a very professional fitness instructor. She is not only good at various fitness exercises, but also very good at yoga. She is also very experienced in massage techniques. The massage that relieves fatigue and relaxes the body is definitely a kind of enjoyment.

certainly.

Zhen Shaolong had no other thoughts, he totally hoped that Leina would help relieve his fatigue.

"Why don't you call Leina and invite her to join my assistant team?" Zhen Shaolong thought about it.

His assistant team has indeed expanded a lot.

Now he only has agent Alice, first assistant and nanny Claudio, and two bodyguards, Huzi and Eva. Eva will not be able to continue working in the short term due to pregnancy problems.

The number of people is a bit too small.

For example, some stars in the entertainment industry have a dedicated studio and a huge team of assistants. He also needs a similar team of assistants to run business and publicity.

Alice is forming.

Song Xiaowei is a member who is scheduled to join, but still needs to study for two years.

Alice also invited her father Rawls.

Rawls also intends to give up his job as a scout for Mi Qiantu and come here to do odd jobs for Zhen Shaolong. He is quite professional in the field of football and has a wide network of contacts. He is definitely capable of professional football work. Zhen Shaolong just felt that Rawls and Alice were indeed a father-daughter relationship with genetic genes.

Father introduces job to daughter.

Now the daughter introduces work to her father.

Ok……

Zhen Shaolong thinks that Reina should be invited. She can work with Claudio as his home assistant, and her job is to guide yoga, fitness, and assist in massage.

"right!"

"Just do it!"

"I don't know if Leina will agree..." Zhen Shaolong thought, "She should think about it, right?"

subsequently.

the phone is ringing.

Zhen Shaolong received two calls in a row, one was from the club chairman Michael Ashley, and the other was from Irene Ecclestone. They both talked about the same thing, inviting him to play golf.

Erin emphasized, "My father will go tomorrow, and there are others, but I believe you are the best."

Zhen Shaolong didn't want to go.

Ecclestone!

What a dreadful old fellow!

This old guy knew about himself and Irene, of course, he knew only the simplest version, and he just didn't agree with his relationship with Irene, and it felt really weird to meet Ecclestone.

Ashley also talked about Ecclestone, but what he said was direct encouragement, "Don't worry! The old guy's idea is to let young people make a comparison. I believe you are the best!"

"Who can refuse Zhen Shaolong, who has just won Mr. Football, to be his son-in-law? No! Absolutely not!"

"..."

"If you knew your daughter Flora... ahem, you definitely wouldn't say that." Of course Zhen Shaolong didn't say it.

Finally he agreed.

Mr. Chairman's invitation to refuse is not very good. Even Irene and Flora will go. It seems to be a very interesting party. If he directly refuses, it feels like he is afraid to go.

That's so embarrassing!

Zhen Shaolong absolutely wanted to save face, so he went to Flora's house the next morning, and then drove to the golf club nearly 50 kilometers away with Ashley, Flora's father and daughter.

Some people are already waiting there.

The golf course was booked out that day, and several genuine British businessmen, including Ashley, Ecclestone, and Brower, made an appointment to play golf together.

There are four young people.

Flora, Irene, Bell-Ashcroft, the remaining one is of course Zhen Shaolong.

Bell and Zhen Shaolong were about the same age, and the young man seemed spiritual. He was very enthusiastic when he saw Zhen Shaolong, but Zhen Shaolong knew that the other party was the "opponent" Ashley mentioned.

Rival?

you could put it that way.

Bell's surname is Ashcroft, and the Ashcroft family operates the electronics and software industries, and it is an intelligence and encryption company that sounds tall, which can be regarded as very remarkable.

In the British high society, Bell is also quite famous, and can be said to be the dream lover of noble ladies.

He has a handsome face.

Gentle character.

In addition, Bell is a top student at Cambridge University and a well-known golfer. Golf is just a hobby, but he has even participated in professional leagues, which sounds very tall.

Zhen Shaolong exchanged a few words with Bell, but he didn't feel much. The main reason was that he felt that the other party's appearance was not as good as his own. In addition, Bell was really kind and could bring a lot of good impressions to others.

Is this called gentlemanly demeanor?

Then I saw Bell sweeping the side of the 'elderly man', pulled Zhen Shaolong and whispered, "I know you and Irene, but that has nothing to do with me, I just have no choice but to come today, yes, I was forced."

"I have girlfriends, and there are many, I don't want to make them sad..."

"I don't want to find a regular girlfriend either. I'm only twenty-three years old, and it's still too early to get married!"

"So...you understand!"

Zhen Shaolong still didn't quite understand, he felt that the upper class society was too complicated, but he heard a crucial sentence, "You said...you have many girlfriends?"

"yes?"

"How did you do it? Aren't they jealous of each other? Or something else?" Zhen Shaolong was shocked.

Bell immediately talked proudly about his experience.
