In the media reports that night, Real Madrid and Zhang Yang's related remarks were swept away, and no one talked about 'Real Madrid invited Zhang Yang', 'Zhang Yang is expected to join Real Madrid', or 'Zhang Yang will leave Millwall at the end of the season'.

All media reports talk about Calderón and Zhang Yang's 'public' call, with a focus on what was in it.

Calderón himself admitted that the invitation was to win people's hearts!

When the British media reported and produced audio evidence, the Spanish media also followed suit to criticize Calderón.

Real Madrid is a membership club, but also a 'political' club, each president can be said to be a 'football political figure', and it can be linked to the Spanish royal family, the internal power division is quite complicated, on the surface Calderón is the president of the club, but he is not like the president of other clubs, he has the power to dominate the club, just like many European leaders, Calderón's power will be limited by the board of directors, and it is also very important to win the support of club members.

Calderon's news of 'winning people's hearts' is actually nothing, just like his election slogan, bringing this star and that star for the purpose of winning people's hearts.

But the key is...... Calderón did not work out!

From the beginning of the election campaign to the present, Calderón's slogans have not been realized, and this time he fell even harder, and just shouted the slogan, he directly declared defeat.

Real Madrid fans are naturally very unhappy.

The most embarrassing part is that Calderón was also teased by the other party, and the other party refused to talk to Calderón in front of many reporters, the purpose must be to eliminate the rumors, and Calderon also said things that should not be said.

Calderón's situation can be imagined.

After this incident, it is certain that Zhang Yang has become Calderon's absolute mortal enemy, as long as Calderón is in office, Zhang Yang will never have anything to do with Real Madrid.

But beware...... Not Real Madrid!

Calderon's political and political opponents would like to see Calderón unlucky, those who lost the election also have a certain influence in Real Madrid, and they all have a certain say in the board of directors, if someone else takes the position, the situation will naturally be different.

Real Madrid fans will only hate Calderón deeply, because Calderon keeps putting forward slogans and drawing a beautiful blueprint for fans, but in the end none of them are realized.

The only thing that has satisfied the fans is that he signed the new star coach Capello, but Capello has only been in charge for half a season, and has been criticized by the media and fans for his conservative coaching style.

All of this puts Calderón in an extremely difficult position.

————

The above has nothing to do with Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang didn't think he had done too much, he coached at Millwall and had nothing to do with Real Madrid, but he was used as a campaign chip by Calderon, and Calderon was a little surprised.

In fact, Zhang Yang just wanted to openly reject Calderon and eliminate all kinds of voices in the media, but he didn't expect Calderon to dig a pit and jump down, something that no one could do.

Suffice it to say that Calderón ...... Deserve!

Zhang Yang doesn't have a good impression of Calderón, if the memory of his previous life is not wrong, this guy is a 'teasing-forced' chairman, he has been questioned since taking office, and he has only been the chairman for two years, and it has become a joke for Real Madrid, and finally Florentino came out again and took over Real Madrid to build the 'second phase of the Galaxy Battleship'.

Calderón will only be a loser, so ...... It doesn't matter at all.

The next day, Millwall took on Bolton Wanderers away and the final match was 0-1, with Millwall winning away.

The only goal of the game belonged to Darren Bent, but Bent slipped on grass in the second half, strained a leg muscle, limped off the field, and the doctor's diagnosis after the game was that he needed to recuperate for a month.

Darren Bent only suffered a minor injury, but Zhang Yang didn't pay much attention to it, after all, after Christmas, it is a period of frequent injuries for players, and it is normal for a player to be injured.

But in the next two days, Simpson and Konchesky were injured one after another, which made the entire coaching staff start to worry.

Zhang Yang hurriedly gathered the coaching staff and convened the team doctor and physical trainer Credrick to discuss the plan for the intensive schedule after the holiday.

Before Millwall's rotation was not frequent, such as several main defenders, including Pire, Darren Bent, often started in a row, Zhang Yang did not particularly care, but the continuous injuries made him alert, last season's injury was not serious, several players were injured without breaking their bones, this season to participate in the Champions League, and one more League Cup, which is equivalent to a two-line battle to a four-line battle, the schedule pressure is not at a level, what kind of game to send what kind of player, it must be planned.

Zhang Yang has also considered giving up some competitions, such as the FA Cup, for Millwall, the FA Cup is a chicken competition, having won the FA Cup last season, and they need to pay more attention to the Champions League.

However, for the time being, Millwall has not yet taken the initiative to give up the game, the FA Cup is also very influential in England, if it can win the FA Cup for a second time, it will make Millwall in English football prestige greatly increased, and it is a pity to give up directly.

The flamboyant mentality is 'go with the flow'.

When you encounter a team in the lower league, you will send a substitute lineup, and when you encounter a difficult opponent, you will play some main players, and it will be best if you can go all the way to the semi-finals and finals, otherwise it doesn't matter if you fail.

What Zhang Yang didn't expect was that the injury would soon come again.

On 1 January, the first day of 2007, Millwall hosted Tottenham Hotspur.

This is a classic battle for the fans.

Millwall beat Tottenham 5-3 to claim their first win of the new year, and the process was a process that left the fans on their laurels, as evidenced by the eight goals in the game.

Millwall opened up the attack at home, and Tottenham's style also determined that they would take the initiative to attack, and Millwall had a certain advantage in possession, but on the contrary, Tottenham had more shots on goal, and the final goal statistics proved that Millwall were more efficient in front of goal.

Starters Jamie Vardy and Braniff combined to score three goals, with the other two belonging to Livermore and Quaresma.

After the game, many media commented on the game, praising the cooperation of Braniff and Vardy, calling them the 'best midfield striker combination in the Premier League', the three goals of the two in the game, Braniff two assists, Vardy one assist, two of which were scored by the two alone, and the other players only played a supporting role.

"Braniff and Vardy, two players can make the Tottenham defence helpless!" The Times commented, "This game has allowed Millwall to find a new point of attack, and they have a combination of Darren Bent and Braniv Gavaldy, the latter of whom is even far more threatening than the former!" ”

Later, the Times also talked about Millwall's injury problem, "Quaresma's injury is a serious blow to Millwall, and Darren Ward is also rumored to be in poor physical condition, and the injury of the main central defender will make Millwall's injury worse." ”

Darren Ward is a little better.

Darren Ward played the whole game, only to find out after the game that he had a little sprained ankle, and a few days of rest was enough.

Quaresma's injury was very serious.

Quaresma was injured after scoring a goal, he rushed too fast, almost kicked the ball into the goal with the sole of his foot, the action was too big and caused a hip strain, when he twisted his ass to go off the field, even some teammates laughed, it seemed that it was not a serious minor injury, and the team doctor's examination result was that he needed to lie in bed for a week, and how long it would take to recover after that depended on the situation.

The injury has also affected daily life.

When he was in the hospital, the most embarrassing thing about Quaresma was that he felt muscle pain as soon as he put the tuba hard.

There was bitterness in his flamboyant smile.

Simpson was already in the injury queue before, Quaresma could no longer play, Millwall was equal to no one on the right, and then he could only make cameos with other midfielders, Smitchell was of course fine, but he couldn't keep an eye on it for a month, and the ability of other players was problematic.

Millwall won all their games after Christmas, only to lose to injuries, proving once again that injuries are the worst enemy of professional football.

————

The next day, the media was still enthusiastically discussing the past leagues, and many media began to make a summary of the new year, and by the way, look forward to the competition for the various championships.

In the Premier League, Millwall have become the favourite team, and in the last round Manchester United drew 2-2 with Newcastle United, Millwall had eight points more than Manchester United and twelve more than third-placed Chelsea, such a good result surprised many media and fans.

However, Millwall's injury has become a hidden danger, and it must be admitted that Millwall's bench depth cannot be compared with Manchester United, Chelsea and other teams.

This is a weakness.

"If the injury continues to deepen, Zhang Yang will even reach a situation where no one is available. No matter how good they are, Millwall will not be able to guarantee results. Some media analysis said.

However, eight points is still a considerable advantage, and even the most critical media must admit that Millwall is the most likely to win the title.

There is no need to talk about the League Cup and the FA Cup.

Another thing that has been analyzed is the Champions League, and the British media have an optimistic attitude towards the Champions League, because all four teams in the Premier League have entered the round of 16, and they all entered as group winners.

In this way, the overall results of English football in the Champions League can be guaranteed.

In terms of individual teams, Arsenal were last season's champions, Manchester United are a traditional European powerhouse, Chelsea have been quite successful in the Champions League recently, and Millwall are the new dark horses.

All four teams have a chance.

It's hard to say which team has the best chance of consistency, but one thing is that Millwall are not favourites because their last-16 opponent is Real Madrid.

Everyone knows that Zhang Yang and Calderon have a big feud, and Calderon will definitely not let Millwall go, otherwise he will lose face.

"If Millwall wants to get good results, they still have to pass Real Madrid first."

"Get past Real Madrid first?"

Zhang Yang looked at the news on his mobile phone with a faint smile on his face.

At this time, Zhang Yang was wearing a full-body sportswear, wearing a cotton hat that covered the side of his face, sunglasses on his face, and a scarf to cover his head tightly, he was at London International Airport, constantly looking up at the passengers who came out.

One figure after another walked over, I didn't see the figure in my heart for a long time, watching the flow of people slow down, Zhang Yang was a little expectant, a little nervous, and even a little impatient.

When the figure finally appeared in view, he immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Ivanka, here!" ”

Ivanka was wearing a denim one-piece dress, a white shirt and a plush coat outside, and a cotton thread on her head, and she also covered herself tightly, and when she heard the loud shout, she immediately walked over with a smile.

When Ivanka came closer, Zhang Yang took a closer look and immediately froze in place.

The two looked at each other for a long time.

Zhang Yang pulled the corners of his mouth, pointed at Ivanka's stomach with his finger, and asked in a particularly unconfident whisper, "This...... Are you sure it's me? ”
