Chapter 81

At the end of the day's training, Arsenal announced on their official website that left-back Gael Klich had officially moved to Manchester City for £8.25 million, thanking Klich for his eight years at Arsenal and wishing him all the best.

In fact, the French left-back is certainly worth more than $8.25 million, but considering that there is only one year left on his contract, this price is already quite good, and Manchester City should be glad that they have spent very little money to get a strong left-back in his playing years.

Leng Fei has just met this Frenchman today, his strength is very good, he is fast, and his endurance is very good, he is fierce in tackles, if he is in a reasonable position, he is not far from the road of top left-back.

In the past two days, the club has been very busy, what are you busy with? Of course, the players coming in and out, as well as the recovery training before the season, etc.

Shortly after the training camp, Arsenal embarked on a week-long trip to Asia, with a total of two opponents, one is the representative team of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and will travel to Hangzhou, China, for the second match at the Meihu Sports Center in Yiwu, against Hangzhou Greentown side of the Chinese Super League.

Two days before the Asian trip, Wenger announced the 23-man squad for the Asian trip, the team's captain Cesc Fabregas was unwell in training yesterday, Wenger announced that Fabregas was not in the squad for the Asian trip, and many fans suspected that Fabregas rejected the list of the Asian tour for the sake of transfer, but the club's latest injury report still helped Fabregas get rid of this statement.

Recently, after Manchester City successfully acquired Chlich, it has set its sights on another Arsenal player, Samir Nasri, known as the "new Zidane", in addition, Chelsea, a big silver dollar, and Manchester United, another giant, also want to get the Frenchman, but he was still selected for the 23-man squad for the Asian trip.

In addition, Jenkinson, a new signing this season, and two players who have returned from loan Leng Fei and Ryo Miyaichi have been selected for the 23-man squad, and the following is the 23-man list for this Asian trip:

Szczesny, Manone, Squeerage, Djou, Gibbs, Jenkinson, Koscielny, Arshavin, Chamak, Ryo Miyaichi, Traore, Vermaelen, Sagna, Walcott, Alexander Song, Wilshere, Rosicky, Denilson, Ramsey, Leng Fei, Nasri, Bella, Van Persie.

Leng Fei is still looking forward to the trip to Asia, after all, as a Chinese, in addition to returning to China alone, he has not returned with the team, and this time at Arsenal, he just got the opportunity.

Although the destination of this trip to China is only Hangzhou, Hangzhou is not very far from Shanghai, and my friends and parents will definitely come over if they are free.

On July 11, Arsenal departed from London and flew to Malaysia, many players in the team were very excited, most of them had never been to Asia, had not been to China and Malaysia, Arsenal's last trip to China, it was back in 1995 and Beijing Guoan, but Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 1999, Arsenal also went once.

…………………………………………………………………………………………

Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is also the largest city in Malaysia and one of the more famous cities in Asia, and is the political, commercial and social center of Malaysia.

The plane of the entire Arsenal team landed at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and was warmly welcomed by the Malaysian fans, the Premier League has a high popularity in Asia, in fact, the influence of the Premier League is one of the best in the world, just like the NBA in the United States, in Malaysia, of course, the airport has been surrounded by Malaysian fans a few hours before the plane arrives.

Kuala Lumpur also attaches great importance to this Arsenal's Asian trip, especially putting Kuala Lumpur at the first point of the Asian tour, Kuala Lumpur International Airport has sent the highest security force, and at the press conference, the spokesperson of Kuala Lumpur International Airport said that they will let this Arsenal's Asian trip be carried out in a safe and wonderful environment.

Arsenal's stars sat in the cabin, looking out through the windows, and there was already a crowd below, holding Arsenal's team crest fluttering in the wind above the flags, and the airport was covered in red, of course, this is not Manchester United's red, nor Liverpool's red, but Arsenal's red.

Speaking of which, in the Premier League, red is really a popular color.

Malaysia, Leng Fei is not very impressed with this country, as for the football strength of this country...... Leng Fei really hasn't heard of any Malaysian stars, but obviously, no stars does not mean that there are no fans, isn't China a good example!

In short, although there are no stars, the enthusiasm of the fans is not lost to other countries, and when you look down, huge photos of current or retired or no longer Arsenal stars are waving and welcoming the team.

The first to go down was the team's coach Arsene Wenger, his appearance caused the first wave of climax of the fans, and someone also prepared a huge photo of Wenger, waving it on the side, the professor's face showed a consistent smile, waving to the fans, elegant and handsome.

Next to him was Arsenal vice-captain Robin van Persie, who was absent due to injury during the Asian trip, and Van Persie became the captain of the Asian tour as a matter of course.

Behind is the vice captain of the Asian tour Vermaelen, when training a few days ago, Leng Fei and Vermaelen have a very good relationship, because both of them are from Ajax, Leng Fei helped him convey Stekelenburg's greetings, the relationship between the two is also very good, Leng Fei is also very happy, the team's vice captain and third captain have a good relationship with him, indicating that although he has just arrived, he already has a little status in the locker room.

Leng Fei walked out of the cabin with the stars, and was warmly cheered by the fans, of course, Leng Fei himself knew that most of the cheers of the fans were for the "Arsenal players", not for themselves, unlike before, when Van Persie and Vermaelen walked out, they received the biggest cheers, they are also Arsenal players, but the difference is that in the eyes of the fans, one is an Arsenal player, and the other is an Arsenal star.

Walking next to Leng Fei is the Russian "Tsar" Arshavin, Leng Fei's impression of the Russians is not bad, Russia is also a country with great strength in football, in the 08 European Championships, Russia eliminated the Dutch team that was in full swing at the time, and the biggest contributor is now walking next to Leng Fei Andre Arshavin, he passed and shot in overtime, directly ruining the dream of the Netherlands to win the championship in 20 years.

Before I knew it, all the members of the team had walked out of the cabin and walked on a road opened by airport security, many fans reached out and asked for the autographs of the stars, and the big-name stars who walked in front did not disappoint the enthusiastic fans, and the autograph pen in their hands never stopped.

In less than two minutes, the Arsenal stars walked for about 10 minutes before they finally left the airport and boarded the bus to the hotel.

On the bus, Leng Fei sat in the corner, and during the ten minutes away just now, he basically had nothing to do, just watching his teammates around him enthusiastically sign autographs for the fans, and few people came to ask him for autographs.

It's a good game at Ajax, that's true, but here you're just like that, just a young player who has just signed in, and if you don't have results here, you don't get recognition and even the fans don't like you.

What if you're the star of Ajax? Here, just a newcomer, of course, in China, the situation may be different, but he also understands that this is just a matter of geography, even if all Chinese are his fans, one-fifth of the world's people are his fans, but once you can't play results, you are just a player in the club, and you still can't get the recognition of others.

Thinking of this, Leng Fei secretly clenched his fists, no matter what it is for, here, he must become a superstar!

"Hey! Kim, what are you thinking! Jenkinson sat next to Leng Fei and patted him.

"Ah, Carl......" Leng Fei was startled and looked back at Jenkinson.

"Oh, I'm sorry, did I scare you?" Jenkinson looked at Leng Fei and asked with some concern.

"No, it's okay, I was just thinking about something, um, what do you want to say?" Leng Fei asked.

Jenkinson scratched his head and smiled: "It's nothing else, by the way, Kim, how is China?" We're going to China in two days, how about there? What's there to do? ”

Leng Fei tilted his head and thought for a while, and then said: "If you want to say it's fun, that's a lot, it's just that we only go to Hangzhou this time, if we have time, go to West Lake to play?" Leng Fei asked tentatively.

"West Lake? What is that place? Jenkinson asked.

"To put it simply, it's a tourist attraction of a lake, do you know about the World Heritage List? She's one of the few lakes that can be included in that list, so you should be more or less aware of that. Leng Fei said that he has not been to West Lake either, but Hangzhou West Lake is one of the most famous tourist attractions in China, and it has passed the world-class certification, which should not be bad.

Jenkinson nodded, and said a little expectantly, "Hey, it doesn't look bad, is there anything delicious?" ”

"As for that...... I think the West Lake lotus root noodles are not bad, but I don't know if it's right or not, and Longjing, that is a kind of tea, and it is also a famous tea in China, when the time comes, you must be invited to drink and see, as for other delicious things, it is not only the things in the West Lake, I promise to find a farm shop at random, it will be delicious. "It's not a big deal, Chinese food is the best thing in the world, Leng Fei in London in the past two days, I found a problem, British things are very difficult to eat, even the bread, steak and cheese that British people often eat, is not as delicious as in the Netherlands, let these people who have been eating British food come to try Chinese food, no matter what they eat, they will think it is delicious.

Jenkinson's eyes widened: "Isn't it?" I'm kind of looking forward to it, what kind of delicious food can I eat......"

Leng Fei smiled and said, "When the time comes, I invite you to go out and see what food is!" "Although he is not from Hangzhou, he is Chinese, and that is enough."

Kuala Lumpur Bukit Jalil Stadium, is the venue for the Malaysian team and Arsenal to hold a friendly match, this game, attracted a lot of Malaysian fans to watch the game, Arsenal in the Asian generation is also a bit famous, a few years ago, Arsenal also played here with other Malaysian teams, so Arsenal, Malaysian fans are still more familiar.

In this game, Wenger lined up a 4-3-3 formation, which can also be called 4-5-1, Szczesny as the goalkeeper, Gibbs Sania left and right back, Vermaelen and Djourou partnered in the central defender, Alexander Song at the back, Wilshere and Ramsey in the double midfielders, Leng Fei got the opportunity to play as a left winger, right winger Van Persie, and a single arrow Chamak.

Although it was a friendly match, for Leng Fei, it was his first game for the Arsenal first team, so no matter who the opponent is, he has to perform well.

At the opening whistle of the game, Arsenal pressed the Malaysian team to play, which is a matter of course, the opponent's players, probably only Malaysians know what their surnames are, and Arsenal has long been a giant-level team, the two teams have begun to meet, there is nothing to determine the outcome of, what makes fans excited is not the game itself, but the stars.

In the fourth minute, Arsenal took the lead, in fact they didn't do much to show their strength, Wilshere ran to the middle and sent a straight ball to the front, Van Persie received the ball, like a leisurely stroll, the ball rolled to the feet of Chamak, who burst into the box with the ball, and faced the defense of two Malaysian players, Chamak made two shots in succession, and then smashed the ball into the bottom of the net.

Chamak didn't seem very excited after the goal, the kind of opponent who scored no different from the goal scored in training, and after a brief celebration of the goal with Van Persie, he returned to the centre circle to wait for the restart.

"Arsenal scored a goal very quickly! This is Chamak's wonderful solo performance! "The Malaysian commentators are still very excited, they rarely have the opportunity to get up close and personal with these famous football stars, even if their team is scored, they don't seem very frustrated, originally this kind of friendly match, everyone doesn't expect their team to win, they all come to see the stars.

Arsenal's second goal came quickly, in the nineteenth minute, Leng Fei, who returned from Ajax on loan this season, also scored the first goal for Arsenal's first team, just a friendly match, but, wonderful, and the strength of the opponent has a lot to do with it, but it does not prevent the fans from enjoying it.

It was Vermaelen who had broken the ball at the back and sent a long pass, not very far away, to the halfway line where Ramsey received the ball.

Looking at his teammates nearby, Ramsey passed the ball to Leng Fei, who was inserted at high speed next to him, and Leng Fei's heel lightly touched the ball, and the ball was passed back.

A Malaysian player stepped forward to defend Leng Fei, but when he saw the ball at Leng Fei's feet passed back, he quickly turned around to grab the ball, and when he turned around, he didn't expect the ball to come back, he subconsciously stretched out his foot to block, did not block, and then turned his head to grab the ball.

"Huh? What about people? The Malaysian turned around and it seemed strange to him that there was nothing behind him but the fans in the stands.

The fans suddenly erupted in exclamations and cheers, and he immediately turned his head to look at his own half, his teammate fell to the ground, but it didn't seem to be tackled or anything, but he slipped and fell to the ground without tackle, and behind him, an Arsenal player wearing the number 27 shirt was bursting into their box!

In addition to the player who just stepped forward to tackle and was passed by two over one, Leng Fei has already passed two players in a row, and there are two defenders in front of him, Leng Fei faced these two people, did not hesitate at all, trying to use speed to break through the penalty area, but among these two, one of the players can see that he is still relatively powerful, he wears the captain's armband on his arm, and his body is also very strong, his reaction is very fast, and he stuck the position when Leng Fei chose to break strongly.

Facing him, Leng Fei braked suddenly, the captain was taken aback, at such a fast speed, he actually stopped all of a sudden! Could it be that the laws of physics of inertia have been nullified in him!

There was no time to be surprised, he immediately defended, signaled another teammate to jam him, and went up to grab it himself.

The two of them acted at the same time, and Leng Fei's reaction was also very fast, just turned around, stepped on the ball with his left foot and spun, and then turned around himself.

The weakness of the captain is precisely that he is very slow to turn around, and after playing for two years, Leng Fei can also see the characteristics of some players through the game, he grasped the characteristics of the opponent, turned around all of a sudden, and rushed forward with the ball.

The third! There's also a player behind him! Of course, Leng Fei knew that there was more than one player who came up to defend him, and it was less than a fraction of a second to turn around, Leng Fei picked up the ball with his heel, he was not afraid that the captain behind him would be able to snatch this ball, in terms of speed, he could get rid of the one behind him for centuries!

The defender in front of Leng Fei was even weaker than the captain, and by the time he reacted, the ball had already flown over his and Leng Fei's heads, and Leng Fei, who had excellent explosiveness, caught up with the ball all of a sudden.

Four people in a row! Although it was only a friendly match, the fans were very excited and stood up to cheer for Leng Fei's wonderful performance.

Facing the goalkeeper, Leng Fei calmly volleyed into the upper right corner, the ball was very tricky, although the Malaysian goalkeeper tried his best to save, but the previous position was not good, and he was blocked by his teammates, he could only watch the ball fly into the net.

As soon as the ball was scored, the cheers of the whole stadium rang out, they came here to see the performance of the stars and the stars, this goal is definitely worth the return ticket price!

"Who's that kid? How come you've never seen him before? ”

"It seems to have been signed this year, from what ...... Ajax came, and Vermaelen used to be on the same team. ”

Wenger stood on the sidelines, watching the performance of the players on the field, quite satisfied, although the opponent was more unpopular than the Japanese team Nagoya Whale Eight that he coached before Arsenal, but this game, he was mainly used to see the state of the players, everyone maintained it okay, Leng Fei, who spent a lot of money last season, was also in good shape.

After that, Van Persie burst into the box and was violated, the referee awarded a penalty, and Ramsey calmly scored, 3-0, which was also the final score of the first half.

In the second half, Arsenal replaced seven players in one go, Szczesny was replaced by Mannone, Vermaelen was brought on, Squeiraci came on, Djou was replaced by Koscielny, Traury replaced Gibbs, Wilshere was replaced by Denilson, Van Persie was replaced by Bella, Rosicky replaced Chamak, and the unchanged were Leng Fei, Ramsey, Alexander Song and Sania.

In the 60th minute, Leng Fei made another continuous breakthrough on the left side, and then faced the bag, and cleverly distributed the ball to the feet of the unguarded Bella, who shot the goal four times through the opponent's goal.

In the 66th minute, Arsene Wenger replaced all the players who had played for more than an hour, Sagna came off, Jenkinson came off the bench, Arshavin replaced Ramsey, Ryo Miyaichi replaced Leng Fei, and Nasri replaced Alexander Song.

After a major change in personnel, Arsenal still beat the opponent without the slightest power to fight back, in the seventy-third minute, Arshavin assisted Nasri to push the empty goal, 5:0! The final score of the game was fixed at 5:0.

After the game, because it was a friendly match, the Arsenal stars did not rush to leave the pitch, and after leaving the dressing room, they quickly came to the outside of the stadium, and the fans who had been waiting outside rushed up to ask for autographs around their idols.

Leng Fei in this friendly match, the goal of four people in a row made many Malaysian fans also remember the star from China, after the game, Leng Fei, who was almost not noticed by fans before the game, was also sought after by many fans, Leng Fei is also very happy, no matter where it is, it is always a good thing to be welcomed.

After the game, the players have nothing else to do in Malaysia, and the rest of the day will be free to move around in Malaysia before leaving Kuala Lumpur for the game in Hangzhou, China.

The players returned to their hotel and announced that they would continue training at a training base in Malaysia for half a day tomorrow, and that they would have a holiday after half a day, but they were not allowed to return to the hotel after 9 o'clock, and they would leave for China the day after tomorrow.
