"Hello Coach Shen, welcome to Stamford Bridge, is there anything you can do?" Lakli gets straight to the point.

"I'm here to find Tang Wu and recruit him to return to China to participate in the Olympic qualifiers." Shen Xiangfu had limited time, and he did not shy away from his purpose this time.

"Olympic qualifiers? Wasn't the Chinese team eliminated? Richards on the side blurted out quickly.

Tang Wu naturally watched the match between the National Olympic Games and Malaysia, so everyone on the team learned about the current situation of the National Olympic Games through Tang Wu's mouth.

"The National Olympics have not been eliminated!" Shen Xiangfu replied politely, "We are just not in a good situation, and there is still a possibility of qualifying." ”

"Cut, we're also coaches, I don't know what you mean by that?" Richards pursed his lips and stopped squeaking.

Shen Xiangfu didn't care about the other party's complaints, but looked at La's eyes again, "Mr. La-pini, I remember that Chelsea Football Club supports players to be recalled to China to participate in international A-level competitions." ”

"That's right, that's right." Raksli nodded.

Each club has a statute that says "to support club players to be recalled to their home countries to participate in international competitions", and also pays grants and bonuses according to the importance of the event.

But this is like the "855" work system and the provision of overtime pay in the contract of a large company, which is written literally for outsiders to see. The reality is that coaches don't want players to come home to play, and many players don't really want to be called up when the tournament isn't very important or the national team is clearly weak.

For coaches, injuries to players in the national team are a big headache. For example, Veron, the Argentine midfielder, has become Chelsea's biggest parallel import.

For players, the back-and-forth between the national team and the club can easily affect their own appearances at the club. Especially the players who have just taken the starting position, they simply don't want to go back to the national team and waste their chances of playing for the club.

In addition, many team members are on the other side of the world, and they often have to take a plane for more than ten hours to return home, and then reverse the jet lag; After the game, I flew back to the club and then I was jet lagged.

After only one round trip, many players are out of shape because of this, and it is normal for some strikers to not find a sense of scoring for a month.

But no matter what attitude the coach and players have, the club's rules are written in black and white, and there is no interference with the players returning to their home countries to compete.

So Lajili could only point in Tang Wu's direction: "Coach Shen, go there, you can go and see him at any time." But whether he agrees to return home with you or not is not up to me. ”

"Thank you, Coach Pully." Shen Xiangfu nodded and said, "Then I won't bother you for now." ”

Seeing the back of Shen Xiangfu leaving, Lapinli suddenly stopped him: "By the way, Coach Shen..."

"What's the matter?" Shen Xiangfu turned around and asked.

'Coach Shen, you know, the next game is important for Chelsea. Rakari's expression was serious, and his voice was low.

"I see." Shen Xiangfu owed slightly, "Let Tang Wu make his own decisions about everything, I won't force him." ”

"I hope so," Lajli sighed. Let's hope to make the right decision! ”

Through Anovan, the Italian also learned about Tang Wu's recent troubles and the situation in Chinese football, and he also felt sympathy for Tang Wu's suffering. But he definitely doesn't want to lose Tang Wu at this juncture, because Tang Wu is too important to Chelsea at this time.

......

"Hey, Tang Wu, this way, this way!" Seeing Tang Wu and the others starting to rest, Shen Xiangfu immediately waved his hat and shouted loudly.

"Who's that?" Glenn Johnson asked.

This kind of training made him very interested. In the game, you only need to stop the ball, pass the ball, and you can get an assist. For the England rookie, there is an unrivalled appeal.

"I don't know, you guys rest first, I'll go over and have a look." Tang Wu didn't know who this thin old man with sunglasses was.

Take off your gloves, expose your fingers to the air, and walk towards the sidelines.

"You are..."Looking at the face in front of him, Tang Wu was a little afraid to recognize it.

"Hello Tang Wu, I finally saw you. I'm Shen Xiangfu, the coach of the National Olympic team, and we're talking on the phone. Shen Xiangfu's posture was very low, and he took the lead in extending his hand towards Tang Wu.

After so many years as a coach, Shen Xiangfu is the first time to treat a young player in his early twenties like this.

"Uh... Coach Shen? Tang Wu was also taken aback. When Shen Xiangfu's thin cheeks overlapped with the images on the TV in his memory, Tang Wu noticed that this old man had changed so much in just a few days.

Shen Xiangfu's cheekbones protruded amazingly on his face, and his white hair almost covered the entire top of his head. The thin body was swaying in the cold wind, and although he was wearing a down jacket, everyone could see that under the down jacket, there was a body covered with skin and bones.

"Coach Shen, you, why are you here?" Tang Wu hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party, shaking it up and down.

Shen Xiangfu did not answer Tang Wu's greeting, but focused his eyes on Tang Wu's outstretched left hand.

Because Tang Wu's left hand has one finger more than the others, it is more conspicuous when shaking hands.

"What a pair of good hands!" Shen Xiangfu couldn't help but sigh.

"Uh... Coach Shen, what do you say? Tang Wu asked respectfully.

Although Tang Wu was dismissive of Shen Xiangfu and others on the phone and in letters, Tang Wu's attitude was unusually humble when he came face to face with this half-hundred-year-old man who had dedicated half his life to Chinese football.

This is out of a Chinese respect for elders, although Tang Wu has lived abroad all year round, the education he received in rural China as a child is deeply engraved in his bones.

"Good, good, good!" Shen Xiangfu said hello three times in a row, and when they met for the first time, Tang Wu gave him a very good impression.

He thought that Tang Wu, who had lived abroad for so long and achieved such achievements, would be as unruly as his colleagues and the media, but after really seeing Tang Wu, he could see from his eyebrows that Tang Wu was actually a very modest young man.

Compare the players in the national Olympic team who have not yet made many achievements, it is simply a cloud of mud.

"Coach Shen, you just got off the plane? I haven't eaten yet! Let's go, I'll show you a restaurant. ”

"No, no, no!" Shen Xiangfu shook his head, "I'll just go to the cafeteria with you to eat." ”

"How can this be? Coach Shen is rare to come once, how can you let you and me eat in the canteen? ”

"It's okay, I often eat in the canteen with the players in China, and the coach doesn't have any special treatment." Shen Xiangfu waved his hand, "In addition, I am also a coach, and by the way, I will also investigate how top foreign clubs match nutritious meals for players." ”

"Huh? Well, well. Tang Wu saw that Shen Xiangfu had made up his mind, so he could only say goodbye to his teammates and take Shen Xiangfu towards the cafeteria.

"We may have to lose to" Looking at the back of Tang Wu's departure, Richards looked decrepit.

"What? What does that mean? When Glen Johnson heard this, he immediately looked like a fried cat.

"You don't know who he is! He is the coach of the Chinese Olympic team, and he came to find Tang Wu to go back to the Olympic qualifiers. ”

"Olympic qualifiers?" Frank Lampard wondered, "Didn't the Chinese team be eliminated? ”

"Who knows!" Richards said, "Maybe they thought Tang Wu could save the world!" ”

"Haha, how is that possible? To not be Superman! Glenn Johnson laughed.

"Alright, anyway, we have to be prepared for no door!"

"And Arsenal?" Glenn Johnson's mouth opened wide in surprise.

"Judging by the schedule, it looks like this." Richards spread his hands.

"Fack!" The surrounding players cursed together.
