27.chapter 27

After a one-goal defeat to Real Sociedad on 11 January, Francisco Álvarez had his first international training camp.

Carvajal expressed his rare importance to this matter, and constantly told Forlan to have a good attitude when he first joined the national team, not to cause trouble and not to form bonds with others. He knows that after Raul and Casillas, he has another person at Real Madrid who has at least a say in the first team. His title as Spain's No. 1 agent was as secure as ever, and he automatically ignored the sudden speechlessness of his young players, which Raul, Guti and even Casillas had told him several times.

Before going to the national team training camp, Fran's mother, who was born and raised in Sweden, was of course different from her son, who only hung a title but actually wanted to win glory for the country. She told her son, who was about to leave home, what would be taboo for her fellow citizens, and the elder Alr sat on the sofa with his arms folded over his chest, and his son had been forced to accept the fact that he had joined Sweden instead of playing for Spain. But it's one thing to accept it, it's another thing to be able to let go of it completely.

Fran leaned against the wall as if he was obedient, not actually knowing what else was already in his mind. His mother chattered until she was thirsty and got out of her state of forgetfulness, and when she saw him like this, she slapped Fran on the head of Fran, who knew that she was at a loss and shrunk her shoulders, "What did I say to you, huh?" ”

"Be sensible, restrained, and don't lose your temper," Fran raised his hand and rubbed the top of his head that didn't feel any pain, "but Mom, why the hell do you think I'm going to get into trouble!" "Francisco Alvarez feels that he is really wronged, he is such an obedient and sensible person, why do they all think that they will get into trouble when they first arrive?

Just like Forlan has already thought, as a newcomer who has just played in the top league for half a season, he was directly lobbied by the head coach to join the national team is a rather eye-catching deposit, not to mention that there has been a lot of news on the selection of the national team, and if you are familiar with this national team, only the head coach Lagerbeck is familiar, and half of the people in the squad may not have heard of it, and this 'familiarity' is only limited to the category of 'one meeting'. Entering a team that you don't know well like this is far more embarrassing than the situation when there was Raul Guti to help you integrate into the team. At the beginning, he knew how to be restrained as a substitute at Real Madrid, but what didn't he understand when he entered Sweden?

When he pulled his luggage into the training base, he still told himself this over and over again in his heart, but many things were destined not to go as he expected. On the list of dormitories released by Lagerbeck, the person who shared the room with Forlan happened to be someone in the Swedish team who Forlan knew better, and the person who was known by Forlan because of his fame was Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Forlan dragged his luggage to his side, Ibrahimovic, who plays for the Eredivisie giant Ajax, glanced down at him with his arm behind his back, but Ibrahimovic, who is known as the giant among the forwards, has extremely delicate footwork, which is the previous definition of Forlan for him. As for now?

- This has to be 195, right? A striker is so tall, but he is famous for his footwork, really a big man?

After Real Madrid's fat man with surprisingly good speed and explosiveness, there is another striker who has subverted Forlan's perception because he is so close at hand.

He himself automatically ignored Ibu's somewhat provocative gesture.

When trying to persuade Fran, Lagerbeck didn't say much about his tactics because he wasn't sure, but the complaints about the Swedish national team manager were enough to show that he was a manager who valued defense more than attack. This is one of the reasons why Forlan chose to join Sweden in a certain way, and the defensive focus is certainly beneficial for him as a defensive defender, but it is one thing to benefit himself, as those media say, "Ibrahimovic and Ljungberg, if you add Larsson, who retired from the national team, this Swedish team can play against any team." "That being the case, with such a strong attacking line, Lagbeck still chooses defensive tactics, which is inevitably a little too conservative.

Sweden in the backline has changed a lot because of the addition of Forlan, and after the captain Anderson and Patrick Anderson retired from the national team 02 years ago, the central defender position of the Swedish national team has been in a desperate situation. Defensive midfielders Anderson and Daniel Anderson were also not selected for the squad due to poor form. The current captain of the Swedish national team is 33-year-old Mjallby, who has been barely playing at centre-back since the retirement of former captain Anderson, and this time as a defender, he simply gave up the key position of centre-back to Forlan due to a knee injury, and switched back to full-back.

However, "if you add Larsson", Forlan asked Lagbeck a question with some curiosity before coming to the training camp. Ragbeck seemed to be a little reluctant to divulge the answer, but he still made an exception for the future of his backline, and when Forlan asked "Can Larsson come back", "Prime Minister Persson and Chairman Johansson both think that he still has the strength to continue to follow the national team, and if the two of them persuade him together, it is probably one thing that he will come back." ”

Fran was very surprised to put down the phone, but the thought in his heart was a hundred turns, this situation is even more embarrassing, Ibrahimovic, Ljungberg, Larsson, still insist on defense first? Not to mention that there must be people in the team who are dissatisfied with this, in this case, he is a person who looks like a defender to join the team, and I really hope that these things will not involve the team's tactical contradictions on a newcomer to the national team like him.

And there's no doubt that his roommate for the next few days is someone who must be 'unhappy about it' because of the firepower.

The two of them entered the room, maintaining a rather awkward silence, according to the simple homework prepared by Fran before coming, Ibrahimovic certainly does not look like a character who will have a good relationship with a newcomer like himself, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the two people from spreading, after all, Fran took the initiative to talk to Ievic when he put away the simple luggage and came out of the bathroom, "Francisco Alvarez, I mostly stayed in Spain to play football before this, please advise my roommate!" He scratched at his hair with his right hand, "Zlatan, can I call you Zlatan?" ”

Eevee sneered, said "I know" and walked sideways past Fran to the bathroom, ignoring the good-natured and even deliberately closer-up question behind him. Fran looked at the front of no one in a little daze, I don't know if it was an illusion, he felt that this guy seemed, maybe, maybe, for him, not to mention kindness, and even a little hostility?

Fran patted his cheeks with both hands after reacting, and said to himself in his heart, Fran, you are calm, the manager's tactical policy doesn't care about you, and don't take it to heart for those who are angry. Thinking like this, Fran shrugged his shoulders and planned to open the window in the room to ventilate, but Eevee, who came out of the bathroom behind him, went straight out and slammed the door of the room. Fran, who was holding the window handle and pushing it out, made a pause, and the next second continued his movements as if nothing had happened. After that, he picked up his outfit and key card and left the room to go to the gym, and when he looked up, he saw that he was carrying the same items and happened to come out of the room, and lived in the opposite door.

Ljungberg, who has become a sexy idol in the hearts of female fans because of his angular face and sculptural perfect body, is not a handsome type, but he undoubtedly has a handsome of his own. The attacking full-back is markedly different from Ibrahimovic's, with a personality that is not quite the same as the coldness of his appearance, but much more sleek. Or, in other words, after Eevee's cold reception, no matter whose attitude it is, will seem a lot more mellow in Fran's mind - of course, unlike the pressure that Eevee gave Fran to look down on his height by nearly ten centimeters, Ljungberg, who is ten centimeters shorter than Fran, will also look a lot more comfortable from this direction.

Naturally, the two fellow gym go-to-gym walked together, and Ljungberg cuped, "May I call you Fran?" After all, your last name is a little too long, and your name is "Ljungberg raised an eyebrow, signaling that we all know it's a bad street name, "Sure, you can call me Fred too?" This kind of kindness almost made Fran flattered to wonder how unlikable he was, and he didn't care about the ridicule of his name, "Of course, Fran and Sisko, whichever one you think is easy to call." Of course, I'm more used to being called Fran. ”

Ljungberg lived across the street from Fran and Eevee, and of course he heard all the sounds of Eevee slamming the door, and was a little curious, "Why did you make such a big fuss with Zlatan?" Fran didn't hide his same confusion, swallowing 'God knows how he spontaneously combusted', and laughed dryly to say that he was probably too familiar with himself and Ibu was embarrassed. Ljungberg was amused by his apparently perfunctory words, and fully understood what he had not said, and patted Fran on the shoulder, his eyes full of "There is still a long way to go". Fran followed Ljungberg, who was familiar with the road, silently remembering the route, and Ljungberg also pointed out on the way which entrance to Flan's stadium, restaurants, recreation rooms, etc.

When the two of them slowly wandered to the gym, they saw Ibu jogging on the treadmill with headphones on his headphones and listening to music to warm up. Eevee, who was facing the door, obviously saw the two of them, and he nodded to Ljungberg slightly, automatically skimming the smile that was naturally crooked at the corner of Fran's mouth and simply skimming his head. Fran's eyebrows raised slightly, and he still walked to the locker room without saying anything, and it was a little strange for Ljungberg to follow him, "When I saw your information, I thought you were a relatively short-tempered player, but I didn't expect it" Ljungberg looked Fran up and down without saying a word, Fran made a move when he heard this, and the uncomfortable smile that had always hung on the corner of his mouth in Ljungberg's eyes was finally embarrassed by his own embarrassed hand to cover his face.

So, why do family members, agents, seniors, or even people who have just met think that he is a short-tempered and troublemaker?

He is obviously such a casual, encountered, and, safe, no, remember, hate, and, quite, for, considerate, and considerate person!
