Chapter 196: Wu Lei Calls (Part 2)

The latest edition of The Times analyses the 2014/2015 Premier League title race and concludes that Chelsea have the best chance of lifting the Premier League title.

The Times cites its reasons for making this judgment and prediction.

First of all, the comparison of the strength of Liverpool and Chelsea's players, whether it is the first-team squad or the strength of the bench, Liverpool is inferior to Chelsea.

In addition, Liverpool's already anxious squad has now been made worse by Sterling's refusal to renew his contract.

Then there is the fixture of the two teams, in the next 14 rounds of the league, Chelsea have four games against the top seven teams in the league, they need to play Southampton in the 29th round of the league, Manchester United in the 33rd round of the league, Arsenal in the 34th round of the league, and Liverpool in the 36th round of the league.

In comparison, Liverpool's schedule is more brutal, and in the next round of the 25th round of the league, the 26th round of the league, and the 27th round of the league, Liverpool will usher in three consecutive tough games, namely at home against Tottenham Hotspur, away against Southampton, who are fourth in the league, and at home against Manchester City.

Subsequently, in the thirtieth round of the league, Liverpool will host Manchester United, and the second leg of this season will officially start; Then in the 31st round of the league, Liverpool will take on Arsenal away to enter the race for the top four, and finally in the 36th round of the league to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

In the remaining 14 league games, Liverpool have six games against teams in the top seven of the league, and five of the other eight games against relegated teams such as Queens Park Rangers and Leicester City.

The Times used the term 'superdevil' to describe Liverpool's future fixtures in the Premier League.

'Chelsea are in a better position than Liverpool, both in terms of fixtures and in terms of the quality of the two teams' ......– The Times believes Chelsea are more likely to come back from the table to win the title than Chelsea.

Of course, The Times also admits that Liverpool have their advantage as well, as they are now six points clear of Chelsea on points, which is a guarantee that Liverpool can afford to make mistakes in both games.

In addition, "Liverpool's biggest reliance if they want to win the title is that they have the number one star in the Premier League, and a healthy and in-form Jiang will be the biggest guarantee for the Reds to win the first Premier League title in the club's history." ”

……

Jiang Chenxi had just returned home from maternity leave with his wife Su Xun, and his family took his mobile phone and handed it over, "Your phone call came once an hour ago." ”

"Who is it?" Jiang Chenxi asked.

"You're marked with thunder."

Jiang Chenxi nodded, handed Su Xun over to her mother to take care of, and called the phone back.

"Leizi, it's me, called me?" Jiang Chenxi said, "I'm sorry, I took Su Xun to the hospital for a prenatal checkup, but my phone was left at home." ”

Wu Lei on the other end of the phone said again and again that it was okay, and asked about the prenatal examination with concern.

"Everything works." Jiang Chenxi said with a smile, "What about you, Leizi, when are you going to have a child?" ”

The two of them were teammates when they were in the national junior team, Wu Lei was one year older than Jiang Chenxi, Wu Lei and Jiang Chenxi were both married in 2014, Wu Lei just turned twenty-three years old when he got married, and Jiang Chenxi was less than twenty-three years old when he got married.

……

"This year, it's already being planned." Wu Lei said with a smile.

"By the way, what's the matter with calling me?" Jiang Chenxi asked.

"Well, there is something I can't decide, I want to ask you to help me advise." Wu Lei said, "Jiangzi, you are well-informed, you know more than me, and you can see farther than me. ”

"What's the matter?" Jiang Chenxi asked curiously.

"Remember what I told you about Copenhagen at the Asian Cup?" Wu Lei asked.

"Remember, what? Did Denmark contact you again? Jiang Chenxi asked.

During the Asian Cup, Wu Lei and Jiang Chenxi mentioned that he was favored by the Danish league giants Copenhagen at the end of 2013, when the Danish giants Copenhagen made an offer to Shanghai Dagang to buy Wu Lei.

Copenhagen is a giant in the Danish league and a regular in the Champions League, Wu Lei was a little moved, however, Xu Hengbao, the head coach of the Dagang team at that time, did not fancy this team, and also thought that Wu Lei still needed to be sharpened in China, plus the offer given by the Danish side was only one million euros, which was unacceptable to Dagang, so Dagang rejected the Danish side's offer to Wu Lei.

When Wu Lei and Jiang Chenxi talked about this matter, he still had some regrets, he was very eager to play overseas, Copenhagen can often play in Europe, which makes Wu Lei look forward to it, however, regret is regret, Wu Lei has no resentment towards his mentor Xu Hengbao, he knows that Xu Hengbao is also thinking about him, he just played in the Chinese Super League at the time, and he is indeed very immature, in addition, the team has cultivated him for so many years, he knows how to be grateful, and he has to repay the club.

……

"It's not Denmark, it's a team in the Bundesliga." Wu Lei said with some excitement, "It's Hoffenheim." ”

If the invitation from Copenhagen more than a year ago only made him a little tempted, this invitation from the Bundesliga team can be said to make Wu Lei extremely excited and even eager to play in the Bundesliga.

"That's a good thing." Jiang Chenxi nodded, "It's good to come out early to play football, you can improve yourself faster and better in a high-level league." ”

"I know." Wu Lei said, "I also hope to play in the big five leagues as soon as possible, this is a good opportunity, but, Jiangzi, I am a little confused now, and I want to play abroad, and I am a little scared." ”

Wu Lei told Jiang Chenxi about his current ambivalence, very eager to play overseas, wanting to accept Hoffenheim's invitation, and worried that he would not get too many opportunities to play after falling to Hoffenheim, which would ruin his career.

"Lei Zi, I understand your ambivalence now, from my personal opinion, I support you to come out to play, however, you also know that whether you can get the opportunity to play, it depends on strength, luck and the preferences of the head coach and other ......factors," Jiang Chenxi said.

"Jiangzi, I understand, I understand, I understand what you said." Wu Lei shouted, "Actually, I made this call just to ask you, ...... you"

"What am I?" Jiang Chenxi asked.

"I'm going abroad to join you, would you like to dinner?"

"Nonsense, please!" Jiang Chenxi said.

"That's it!" Wu Lei said, "Leave it aside, Jiangzi, remember to invite me to dinner." ”

Jiang Chenxi listened to the busy sound on the phone, nodded slightly, he knew that Wu Lei had already made a decision, he just wanted to find someone to talk to, just wanted to talk, in fact, when he called, he was more sure of the decision in his heart.

"Come on, Thunder."

It takes a lot of courage to go out of the comfortable environment and high salary at home and fight for an unknown future overseas.
