......

This is Quaresma's overall attribute now, compared to before, there has been a certain degree of improvement, although it is not particularly obvious, but at his level, it is obviously unrealistic to want to improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

Even a team that is dragging its feet is now absolutely above the level of a professional player, and although it is impossible to have the ability of a playmaker, it will never be criticized casually if it is taken out - after all, the vast majority of wide players are more focused on breakthroughs, and the concept of a wide midfielder has not even been born.

With a top-notch teamwork and top-notch passing ability, Quaresma has the foundation to deliver a scalpel-like through-ball with the rest of the game, on the one hand, and the ability to play with his teammates on the one hand, and judge the offensive situation on the other.

It's the most effective and quickest way to improve yourself in the near future, so Quaresma is very interested in it.

The hellish training method is unacceptable to the first-team teammates, and it cannot be solved by a few young models, so Quaresma simply went to the youth team training ground after training and let the young players accompany him to practice.

Compared with the old fritters of the first team, it is obviously easier for young little guys to fool, and they will be fooled as if they have been beaten with chicken blood.

A couple of defenders defended, the attackers were in position, and Quaresma focused on the ball and waited for an opportunity to send a through ball.

Although the purpose of this practice is too obvious, everyone knows that Quaresma is going to send a straight stopper to the attacking players, and the defense is more targeted, but Quaresma doesn't mind the difficulty at all, because he knows that many times on the field, the opponent knows that those midfield masters want to send a straight stopper, but they still can't prevent it, this is the direction he is working towards.

Fortunately, Quaresma is practicing passing, and if it is a breakthrough, then these little guys will definitely collapse.

Even the opponents of those top giants want to cry without tears in the face of Quaresma's breakthrough, these little guys have to be beaten and run home to find their mother in tears?

The effect of daily practice is limited, and growth cannot be achieved overnight, but Quaresma is also patient, because he knows that it is never too late to learn.

Mei Lao Wu is almost 30 years old before he started practicing free kicks, and now he has become a free kick master?

So, it shouldn't be surprising that Quaresma will one day become a midfield maestro.

......

After the win over Manchester United, although there are still a few league games and the FA Cup in between, Arsenal are already in the process of preparing for the knockout stages of the Champions League, which is the most important thing.

With a 13-point lead in the league, Arsenal has enough confidence and willfulness to strategically abandon one or two league games, which will never affect the overall situation;

As for the FA Cup, if it doesn't affect the Champions League and the league, then it doesn't matter if you put some experience into it, but once it affects the Champions League and the Premier League, then Wenger definitely doesn't mind kicking the FA Cup away.

So, the most important thing at the moment is to prepare for the match against Lyon, which is not a particularly easy opponent to deal with.

On January 28, in the fifth round of the FA Cup, Arsenal faced Bolton at home, because he had just completed a big battle with Manchester United, so Wenger simply sent the second-tier lineup, most of the starters were substitutes, several main players sat on the bench, and Quaresma did not even have the opportunity to sit on the bench.

However, Arsenal's bench squad was not much worse, but they fought evenly with the opponent on the field, and until the end of the game, they were not able to distinguish the winner.

According to the FA Cup rules, if the winner of the single-leg knockout round is not decided, then a replay will be chosen, which means that Arsenal will play another game with Bolton Wanderers at another time to split the winner.

Wenger is also quite helpless, after all, the schedule is already dense enough, but there is an extra game, which is definitely a big burden.

However, if the second-tier squad is played, it will not affect the state and fitness of the main players, and the only thing to worry about is that Arsenal will really give up the FA Cup.

On February 4, back in the league, Arsenal challenged Middlesbrough away, and the main players who returned to the starting list did not leave any chance for the opponent, even if the opponent is currently in good shape, but still can't stop Arsenal's wolf-like impact.

Quaresma, as always, opened the scoring, Henry extended the score, Adebayo came on the field to abuse vegetables, and the opponent surrendered directly in the second half!

After playing Myburgh, Arsenal went to the away game with Bolton, although they were still substitutes, but for the sake of insurance, Wenger still put core players such as Quaresma and Henry into the squad, and it was this decision that became the key to deciding the score.

By the 70th minute of the game, the score had become 2:2, and the two teams were once again inseparable.

However, at this time, Wenger made a decisive decision, replacing Quaresma and Henry at the same time, giving Bolton the most fatal blow.

When Quaresma and Henry walked onto the pitch, there was a wail at Reebok Stadium, and the fans couldn't help but despair.

Without Quaresma and Thierry Henry, it seems that they still have a long and short capital with Arsenal, but once these two superstars are on the pitch, then the moment will come for Arsenal, and Bolton's future is already bleak.

Facts have proved that their worries are not unreasonable, Quaresma, an unreasonable guy, gave Bolton a big dismount on the field, and under the close pressure of the opponent's two players, he still used his excellent strength to force a turn, and a big arc came out, and the opponent's goalkeeper did not even have a chance to save.

Everything is so simple, it's like setting a script, after all, there must be a savior in the world!

This time, Reebok Stadium is really going to wail!

Quaresma and his team-mates celebrated the goal with excitement, and if it could have given Arsenal a win, Quaresma would have been even happier.

However, Henry, who was holding Quaresma, had a somewhat strange expression and felt very depressed.

He and Quaresma appeared at the same time, it seemed that both of them were saviors, but after a few minutes of play, he hadn't touched the ball yet, Quaresma had already finished playing the role of savior, how could Henry not be depressed!

Fortunately, Henry has now seen it very openly, and it doesn't matter who is the real core of the team, after all, he is almost 30 years old, and he is still competitive like a young man at this time, which is far less practical than winning a few more championships.

His nickname is the King of Highbury, and Highbury is eliminated, and it's time for him to give way, isn't it?

In the rest of the game, although Bolton fought back like crazy, how could they be the opponent of the veteran Arsenal, even if they tried their best, they could only helplessly watch Arsenal laugh to the end.

In this way, in this FA Cup play-off, with Quaresma's killer goal coming off the bench, Arsenal eliminated Bolton Wanderers and successfully advanced to the next round.

Next, Arsenal hosted Wigan Athletic in the league, and Wenger still took a certain amount of rotation in this game, but the victory did not come as smoothly as expected, and the stubborn resistance of the opponent made Arsenal regret to get the second draw of the season.

Quaresma started and although he didn't score, he used the outside of his instep to set up Adebayor's goal, but it was the equaliser.

It's a pity, but after all, no team can win forever, so the players weren't particularly frustrated, after all, they didn't lose either!

However, in the FA Cup, Arsenal did not give Bruise Ben any more chances, and they did their best to win the game at home cleanly and advanced to the quarterfinals of this season's FA Cup.

If it weren't for Lyon's Champions League knockout round with more than a week to go, Arsenal wouldn't have done their best in the FA Cup, but in any case, now that they have reached the top 8, it would be a pity to give up casually, so Arsenal has really become a third-tier battle.

At the end of this wave of games, although Arsenal was forced to draw by Wigan in the league, no one will think that Arsenal is in decline, obviously, Arsenal has conquered everyone with their strong dominance.

With 26 rounds of league play, Arsenal continues to lead the table with an unbeaten record of 24 wins and 2 draws, and the lead is desperately large.

With 11 points ahead of Manchester United, 17 points ahead of Chelsea and 27 points ahead of Liverpool, no one will think they have a chance to catch up with Arsenal until they remain in stable form!

So, Arsenal have enough capital to be capricious.

The touting of Arsenal has already made fans feel bored, but when Arsenal really loses one day, I am afraid everyone will be full of interest.

As for when Arsenal's first real defeat of the season will come, no one can guess!

Perhaps, Arsenal will keep winning like this, right?

......

After a wave of games, Arsenal officially entered the Champions League rhythm, because a week later, the real battle with Lyon will come.

But at this time, it happened to be the Chinese New Year, and Quaresma suddenly felt a little homesick!

What to do?

Going to the Chinese Gathering Area in London to celebrate the Spring Festival with the Chinese?

It seems that he is a Portuguese who has gone to celebrate the Spring Festival with a big grin, which is a bit strange!

While being interviewed by CCTV's reporters, he deliberately used a broken accent to attack and defend and say to Chinese fans, "Happy New Year!" While pondering in my heart, how should I spend a Spring Festival!

What does it mean to make some dumplings at home?

A person, how can he be lonely, this loneliness, but no one can understand it, Quaresma couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

But it just so happened that Eboué next to him was going to a nightclub with Lauren and the others, and Quaresma had an idea, and it seemed that he could invite these animals to celebrate the festival with him!

Although it is a bit strange to celebrate the Chinese New Year, it is not surprising that Quaresma can invite the animals in the form of a "Chinese New Year theme party", and it is definitely a novel experience for them.

Thinking of this, Quaresma's heart moved!

As long as you are not alone for the Spring Festival, as for who accompanies you, it doesn't seem to matter anymore!

So, Quaresma invited his teammates, and he didn't need to do much preparation anyway, and the party could start at any time.

"Chinese New Year theme party?"

The teammates were puzzled because they hadn't heard of it at all.

However, considering that Quaresma can even make such an exciting underwear party, then presumably this "Chinese New Year theme party" must also be very exciting.

"I want to participate!"

"Don't forget me!"

"Be sure to give me a place!"

"I want three young models!"

......

The teammates were excited, making Quaresma feel like the Queen Mother who held the "Peach Feast".

If it weren't for the lack of quota restrictions, it is estimated that this group of livestock would have been fighting.

"Let's talk about it first, there are no tender models, the purpose of this party is to let everyone feel the exotic festival traditions!" Quaresma was afraid that everyone would misunderstand, so he hurriedly admonished.

If everyone thinks wrong, when they get to the party, they find that it is not what they imagined at all, and if they don't get it right, they will beat Quaresma.

The teammates are okay, they are still in high spirits, anyway, everyone is just looking for an excuse to come out and have a good time, if you don't do it, go back and find a young model yourself.

So, the matter was settled.

According to the lunar calendar, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Quaresma did not stay to practice as usual, but went home early to prepare, and after a while, his teammates will arrive one after another.

You can bring your family!

After all, it was a party of reunion, and Quaresma naturally wouldn't throw Emma aside, so when he got home, Emma was already busy going back and forth.

A bit of a hostess!

Quaresma looked at Emma's beautiful figure and couldn't help but smile.

"Honey, you're back!" Emma turned her head and smiled sweetly at Quaresma, and at that moment, Quaresma suddenly had an urge to do nothing tonight and only accompany Emma!

But only if he can drive the herd away.

"But I really don't know what you're doing with all these things, it's weird!" Emma pursed her lips and couldn't help but be curious.

Indeed, according to the Chinese tradition, then Emma really doesn't understand anything.

Red lanterns, window flowers, Chinese knots......

For her, it's exotic.

But looking at the villa, which was lit red by several red lanterns, Quaresma was really excited because he had found a taste of home.

I can't say that Quaresma has more emotion, the teammates have arrived one after another, and when they got out of the car, they were either held by their wives or held by their arms, but they really didn't come alone.

However, when Walcott's hitchhiker arrived, he was actually tied to a who was close to 40 years old, which made Quaresma stunned.

Everyone else brings their wives and girlfriends, even if they don't have girlfriends, they will bring young models with them.

How did Walcott, the little guy, bring his mom?

I really didn't expect him to be a "mom treasure man"!

"Hello, ma'am, I hope you have fun tonight!" According to the teammate relationship with Walcott, Quaresma should actually call the other party's aunt, so naturally he can't act too casual.

However, when Walcott and his mother walked into the villa, Xiaofa came over with a very young woman in his arms, and for some reason, Quaresma felt that the smile on his face was very chicken.

"Why did Walcoat bring his mother to the party?" Because Walcott came with Xiaofa, Quaresma casually asked Xiaofa.

"Who said she was Walcott's mother?" Xiaofa was stunned by Quaresma's question, and asked randomly?

Quaresma's question mark was a little confused, and he and Xiaofa stared at each other for a long time.

"Who was that woman just now?" Suddenly with a bad premonition, Quaresma asked with difficulty.

At this time, Xiaofa became proud, gently brushed the tips of his hair, and his expression was playful.

"Is he the girlfriend Walcott just found, or was my girlfriend introduced to him, how about it, isn't it?"

Xiaofa's answer made Quaresma seem to have been struck on the spot by a thunderbolt, and he was instantly scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.

Nima!

Is she Walcott's girlfriend?

It's enough to be Walcott's mother!

Why did Walcott start to like too?

I didn't know what to say anymore, and at this time, Quaresma looked at Xiaofa's gaze and already wanted to kill a little.

Walcott's age is actually the period when the three views are established, and it is very likely that he was stimulated by some kind of stimulus and affected the entire three views.

But at this critical period, Walcott met Xiaofa, and when he saw Xiaofa hugging various every day, he was inevitably stimulated, or subtly influenced, and then the result was that Walcott himself began to prefer......

Quaresma has already made up the whole thing!

He really wanted to beat Xiaofa violently, an optimistic and good young man, he was led astray by Xiaofa like this!

I thought that Arsenal's group of strange creatures, that is, a few young players, had not been polluted, but now it seems that I am a little too optimistic!

Turning around and watching Walcott flirt slightly shy with a who might be older than his mother, Quaresma felt a sense of despair that he had just beeped his dog.

With a helpless wave of his hand, he asked Xiaofa to take his girlfriend into the house first, and he wanted to be quiet.

......

Finally adjusting his mentality, and his teammates arrived one after another, Quaresma walked into the hall, ready to officially start the party.

What are the traditions and customs of the Spring Festival, even if there has been no Spring Festival for two years, Quaresma will never forget something that has been deeply rooted in his bones, and he is willing to imperceptibly pass on these cultures to this group of livestock.

"This Chinese New Year theme party is naturally warm, so everyone can relax themselves, only relaxed and happy, can be regarded as a successful party!"

Quaresma raised his hand and smiled at everyone.

The animals are still in high spirits, after all, it is a new experience for them.

"Do you see the red paper and brush on the table?"

"It's an ancient Chinese writing instrument, you can write couplets on it, write with a brush, but it's a very interesting experience!"

"After the party, you can take the couplet and stick it on the door of your house, which means good wishes for the new year!"

......

After saying that, Quaresma first wrote a couplet in Chinese characters in the amazement of his teammates, although his calligraphy is basically the same as that of a dog, but at least he has no problem writing Chinese characters.

But when it's the turn of the animals to show off their skills, it's a lot of fun!

Let's not talk about the brush, for them who are accustomed to alphabet writing, the square word is the book of heaven, even if it is written, it cannot be described by writing at all, they are clearly drawn stroke after stroke.

And when they wrote the finished product, it was miserable, but they were still happy and fulfilled.

At this time, Eboue leaned over and whispered in Quaresma's ear, "Sticking this thing on the door is a good wish for the future?" ”

Quaresma nodded, that's what it meant.

Then, Ebue smiled, as if he had thought of something, very chicken thief.

"What do you want to do?" Quaresma always felt that Eboué was going to do something, "Do you want to write a curse and post it on the enemy's doorstep?" ”

It's no wonder that Quaresma thinks so, because Eboué is a guy who can do anything at all.

Eboue smiled and said: "That's not it, I just want to put the painting that Van Persie gave me on the door, this should also be a blessing, I hope that in the future, there will always be girls coming to me, and beautiful women will appear in front of me one after another!" ”

Quaresma's face was instantly covered with black lines, and he dared to guarantee that if Eboue did this, the news of "the Arsenal giant's portrait posted at the door" would definitely make headlines in English football the next day.

"Roll the calves!"

Quaresma gave Eboué only one word.

The teammates were lively and lively "painting Spring Festival couplets", and after a while, they began to fight, and the ink was thrown around by them as a weapon, and even Quaresma did not escape the fate of being attacked, and was thrown with ink on his face.

Enough trouble, everyone put away the Spring Festival couplets they painted and prepared to take them away, after all, no matter what the painting looks like, this is their work, which is worth collecting.

"In Huaxia, in this festival, every family will get together, make dumplings, and then cook dumplings to eat, which is a very popular food in China."

"I have prepared tools and ingredients for everyone, and then everyone can make dumplings and dumplings!"

As soon as Quaresma finished speaking, several of the animals shouted loudly.

"I've eaten dumplings in a Chinese restaurant, it's amazing!"

"Yes, I like dumplings, I didn't expect to be able to make my own today!"

Quaresma couldn't help but laugh, the dumplings you eat in the Chinese restaurant are probably not authentic dumplings, and there are steak traps if you can't get it!

"By the way, you seem to know a lot about Chinese culture!" At this moment, Emma walked over, snuggled up to Quaresma, and asked with a smile.

Quaresma smiled, at this time, it was naturally impossible to tell the truth.

"I like some unique cultures, and if I'm really interested, then I'll dig deeper!" Quaresma laughed and explained, though simple, but Emma couldn't believe it.

Emma nodded, not dwelling on this issue, but rushed up to grab the dumplings with the same interest as everyone else.

Quaresma himself is not very good at making dumplings, but at least he knows the process and can roughly wrap it, and as for whether it looks good or not, it probably doesn't matter that much, right?

"First use a small ball of dough to press out a dough, then put the stirred filling on the dough in an appropriate amount, and wrap the filling by kneading the dough, as long as the filling does not leak out, then this is a successful dumpling."

Quaresma first gave everyone a demonstration, although the final dumpling was not so beautiful, but at least let a Chinese person stand here, and you could see at a glance what it was.

A group of people were amazed around the freshly baked dumplings, and in their opinion, it was so much fun!

Soon, they rushed to wrap the dumplings, and the movements were clumsy like monkeys grabbing chestnuts, and it didn't look like they were making food.

Quaresma couldn't help but laugh, this is the festive atmosphere!

If you are a little skillful, although it may not look good the first time, at least it is successfully wrapped in the filling, and it will not leak after steaming, which should be regarded as a successful dumpling.

But some clumsy hands and feet, they don't wrap dumplings at all, but a lump of Xiang, look at the one in Henry's bag, even the spiral is exactly the same!

Quaresma looked at everyone's strange work and smiled brightly, such a party, in his opinion, was much more interesting than an underwear party.

After thinking about it, Quaresma took out a coin and stuffed it into the dumpling filling when he wrapped a dumpling.

Someone with sharp eyes saw Quaresma's movements, and immediately shouted, startling everyone.

"Ricardo, you actually poisoned the dumplings!" It was Garas who shouted, and he happened to see Quaresma's movements.

The corners of Quaresma's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, he really wanted to pull Gallas by the collar and ask him viciously, who was poisoning!

You know, everyone else took off their shoes when they entered the house, but Garras and Barak didn't have slippers, and if they did, none of them would be able to escape!

Tell me who is poisoning.

Naturally, people don't believe that Quaresma was poisoned, which is nonsense, but they are also curious about what Quaresma put in the dumplings.

Picking out another coin casually, Quaresma reluctantly explained: "This is another custom, when making dumplings, coins and other things will be put in several dumplings, and when the last family eats dumplings, whoever eats the dumplings with coins will be the luckiest in the new year!" ”

"But I still have to remind you, when you eat dumplings for a while, you must be careful, don't be lucky to eat a coin and break your teeth, then it is not called lucky!"

Everyone laughed happily, it turned out to be such a custom!

But since Quaresma could put coins in the dumplings, so could they, so they searched for them and diverged their minds to see if there was anything that could be put into the dumplings like coins to make everyone lucky.

After working for more than an hour to wrap the dumplings, Quaresma couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the dumplings with all the strange shapes laid there, and even some of them couldn't be called dumplings at all.

He remembered that when he was a child, adults made dumplings around the table, and he was eager to try it, and then the things he wrapped were probably so strange......

I can't go back to the past!

But now, Quaresma knew that this was not the time to sigh, so he threw these emotions aside and asked Emma to take a few people to cook dumplings.

Then he himself went out into the courtyard with everyone and took out the fireworks that had been prepared long ago.

If there are no fireworks during the holidays, is there still a festive atmosphere?

The teammates were very excited, and if there were no special circumstances, who would think of setting off fireworks, which is very interesting.

Of course, Quaresma had learned that fireworks were not banned in London, but they didn't have the habit of doing so.

Impatient, Eboue snatched the lighter from Quaresma's hand, told everyone to step back, and went to light a box of fireworks first, and with a sudden sound, the fireworks rose into the air, and the trajectory was clear, and finally the bang exploded in the sky, and the whole sky was lit up with colorful colors.

Everyone kept their heads up, smiling at the fireworks, and the colorful colors were reflected on their faces, which made them look very energetic.

"Happy New Year!"

Quaresma said silently to himself in his heart, silently blessing himself.

He was really homesick!

......

Even if the London Fire Department sent a fire truck to the vicinity to prevent accidents, it still couldn't stop their enthusiasm, and they didn't bother to pay attention to what to write in the newspaper tomorrow!

"Let's go, let's go eat dumplings!" With a wave of his hand, Quaresma beckoned everyone who was still unsatisfied to go back to the house to eat dumplings, and if they didn't eat again, they would probably fall off!

Emma and the wives of several players have already prepared dumplings, although the posture is strange, but on the plate, it also has a unique charm, for the players who make dumplings by themselves, it is a completely novel experience.

"Look, this is my bag, how about it, it has an artist's temperament, right?"

"Don't make a fuss, take your lump of Xiang away and stay away from me!"

"Ah, it's so hot, my lips!"

"It's delicious, it's delicious, I'm going to eat a hundred!"

......

The cattle rushed to grab the dumplings, and if there were special marks, they could even find their own bags in the pile of strange dumplings, and then proudly show off to their teammates, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Naturally, Quaresma doesn't prepare so many strange dipping sauces for them, except for soy sauce is vinegar, of course, minced garlic, and at most a little chili oil, which is the most authentic way to eat.

I have to say that no matter what the shape is, the core is the same, either the skin or the sunken, the taste is almost the same, and it is still very delicious.

"Oh, my teeth!"

At that moment, Barak let out a loud cry, covered his mouth and snorted, and then spat out a coin that had been bitten in half, leaving everyone stunned.

The coins are all made of steel alloy, and they were actually bitten open by Barak, how hard are his teeth?

However, Barak had just shocked everyone, and Xiaofa shouted again.

"What the hell is this?"

Everyone turned around and found that there was a strange thing protruding from Xiaofa's mouth, and no matter how you look at it, they feel that this thing is a little disgusting.

"Congratulations, you've eaten the nail I put in on purpose!"

At this moment, Garas smiled and couldn't help but say proudly: "Didn't you say that you can put something to show luck, you ate my nails, then you are definitely the luckiest this year!" ”

......
