Since there was no training this morning, the players would walk around the neighborhood at will, some would go to the game hall, billiard hall, etc., and some would not go anywhere at all, and stay in the restaurant after breakfast.

Zhang Shujie entered the restaurant, there were about a dozen people inside, Chen Zihua and Zhao Wenkang were sitting at a table, and there were two empty seats next to them, and Zhang Shujie walked up.

"You two so early?" Zhang Shujie said, sitting down.

The two were swiping the news on their mobile phones, and Chen Zihua said, "It's okay, we've only been there for a while." ”

"Have you eaten breakfast?"

"Eat. ”

Zhang Shujie hummed and asked the waiter to bring some breakfast.

Zhao Wenkang flipped through the news on his mobile phone and said a little strangely: "Why doesn't the media seem to be very enthusiastic about our news reports?"

Chen Zihua said with a smile: "That's because it's reasonable for us to qualify, and it's a normal thing." ”

Zhao Wenkang nodded and said: "Most of the media are saying that 'the Chinese team broke through from the group stage without accident and will play England in the round of 16'." ”

Zhang Shujie said while eating breakfast: "I haven't had time to read these news yet, but I guess that the papaya kid will definitely be selected as the best player after the game." ”

Chen Zihua said: "Four goals, he scored two goals and provided one assist, and it is natural that he was named the best. ”

Zhao Wenkang said: "Most of the Chinese media are still analyzing the situation of the top 16, I just looked at the match between us and England, and the domestic media is still more optimistic about us." ”

Zhao Wenkang deliberately bit the words "domestic media", which shows that not everyone is optimistic about the Chinese team.

Zhang Shujie asked: "Which foreign media is more optimistic about England?"

"Needless to say? Local media in England, of course. ”

"Oh, you mean the Daily Mail? haha. Zhang Shujie laughed as he spoke.

Chen Zihua said: "Not only the Daily Mail, but all the English media think that England has a better chance of winning. As we all know, it's no secret that the English media have always liked to praise their teams. ”

Zhang Shujie nodded, did not speak, he had already finished breakfast, only the last small half bottle of milk was left.

Zhao Wenkang suddenly seemed to have discovered a new continent, and handed the mobile phone to the two of them: "You see, the English think that Harry Kane is only half a notch lower than Zhang Shujie at most, and they also say that if Zhang Shujie is worth 300 million, then Harry Kane will have at least 270 million! What the hell is this?"

Zhang Shujie laughed so hard that he almost spilled the milk in his hand. It's not that he's arrogant, but he's also a person with two Golden Balls, a World Footballer of the Year, and two European best players, three Champions League MVPs, three Serie A MVPs, two Bundesliga MVPs, all kinds of golden boots, and countless championships, although Harry Kane is really good, but what can he do to compare with Zhang Shujie? You must know that Zhang Shujie is a star of the same weight as Messi Ronaldo, and Harry Kane is still far behind.

Chen Zihua patted Zhang Shujie on the shoulder and said, "I thought about it for a long time just now, and I couldn't think of anything Kane could compare with you." Is it just his 50-odd goals last season?

Zhang Shujie said: "Whatever, isn't this going to meet Kane? It's a donkey or a horse, so you naturally know." ”

Several people were silent for a while, and Zhang Shujie looked outside the restaurant, where many reporters were wandering outside, and many Chinese fans were also gathered outside. When a Chinese player goes out, he will inevitably be "besieged" by some reporters and fans. Fortunately, everyone knows that this is the World Cup, which is a very important moment, so I didn't particularly pester the players, usually after a few short interviews, I stopped pestering the players.

It must be noted that with the rise of Chinese football in recent years, the quality of journalists seems to have improved a lot, and they will no longer be as stubborn as before.

Li Mu and Yan Tao walked in from the outside side by side, I don't know where the two went for a walk, and before they reached the door, reporters and fans surrounded them, reporters naturally wanted to interview them, and fans asked for autographed photos and took group photos.

While signing autographs for the fans, the two simply answered the reporter's question, and in less than two minutes, the two walked out of the circle and slowly walked into the hotel.

Walking into the restaurant, the two walked towards Zhang Shujie, and because there was only one vacant seat left, Yan Tao dragged a chair from a dining table next to it that no one made and sat down. Li Mu asked everyone, "What are you doing sitting here?"

Zhang Shujie said: "Didn't you train this morning, and you didn't have a place to go, so I just sat here to rest and rest." Where have you two been?"

"Just walked around. Saying that, Li Mu called a few bottles of lemon juice over.

Yan Tao sat on the side, took out his mobile phone early, and quickly pressed the button, looking at the obscene smile on his face, everyone guessed that he was flirting with Gu Qingqing. So everyone bothered him and let him go.

Li Mu took a sip of lemon juice, looked around, and said, "Why don't you see An Zhi?"

"At this point, he should be in the room watching the footage of the England game and studying the style of play. ”

"And what do you think about our game against England?"

Zhang Shujie was about to speak, but Yan Tao rushed to say: "Win." It's my only goal. ”

Zhang Shujie pointed his thumb: "What I want to say, he has already said it for me." ”

"England ......" Li Mu said lightly: "It used to be called the European Chinese team, but now it can't be called that anymore." I always think that we are better than England today. ”

"You are the most vocal in this regard. ”

Li Mu smiled: "In the Premier League, I have played against those England internationals many times, and I am also very clear about their strength. The biggest threat is Harry Kane and Ali, as for the rest...... It shouldn't be a problem to pay more attention. ”

Chen Zihua said: "Theoretically, it is true. But before we officially play with them, theory will be a very important reference. ”

Zhao Wenkang looked at Yan Tao: "Eh, boy, don't always fall in love with your girlfriend, Kane is your most direct opponent in the game, you have to have a snack." ”

Yan Tao didn't raise his head and said, "Don't worry." However, it is a question of whether An Zhi will hand over Kane to me, maybe he will let Xiao Ran keep an eye on it. Besides, An Zhi doesn't like the man-to-man tactics very much, so I think it's more likely that Xiao Ran and I will take turns to defend him. ”

Zhang Shujie pillowed his head with his hands and said, "I don't know how An Zhi is studying the England team now, and what his initial plan is." ”
