"What? Permanently retired from the national team? Liu Chuanfeng and Taishan Shi were shocked and shouted in unison.

The two followed Tan Xibi into the players' tunnel, Tan Xibi held the trophy in one hand and the ball "snatched" from Michael Oliver in the other.

It was a victory for him to score a hat-trick, and only a hat-trick and three or more goals were able to take the match ball.

"Tan Xibi, you can't do this." Taishan Shi hurriedly said, "This will affect your ......"

"I've decided." Tan Xibi didn't look back, and resolutely interrupted Taishan Shi's words, "You just release it according to what I say." ”

Taishan Shi was about to say something, but Liu Chuanfeng on the side grabbed him and shook his head.

Watching Tan Xibi go away, Taishan Shi complained to Liu Chuanfeng: "Why don't you let me continue?" You know he did it......"

"Lao Tai, you don't know Tan Xibi." Liu Chuanfeng said solemnly, "Although the Football Association has the right to call up any player, Lippi is the main decision-maker in selecting players. This time, the Football Association did not communicate with Lippi and wrote Tan Xibi's name into the training list, what do you think this means? ”

Taishan Shi frowned, although Marcelo Lippi did not lead the national football team to the World Cup finals, but the performance of the national team after he took over is obvious to all, and the Football Association is also very satisfied with Lippi, it is said that the two sides are in the honeymoon period, how can there be such a low-level mistake?

He also knows that the football circle is a circle of its own, and today's players have more and more right to speak, as the pressure of the club's game is getting bigger and bigger, the schedule is getting closer and closer, and the players have more time to rest, as long as it is the friendly match and warm-up match of the national team, it can be exempted, after all, it is the club that pays the player's salary.

Therefore, when the national team plays a friendly match, the Football Association and the head coach will call the players in advance to communicate. Generally speaking, as long as it is not particularly necessary, the manager is reasonable and does not call up the club's main international players with heavy tasks.

Lippi called Tan Xibi, mainly to investigate Tan Xibi's combat strength up close and see what he can bring to the national team, but he also knows that the pressure on the Arsenal club in the Premier League is very high, Tan Xibi is the main force of the team, and he is still a newcomer, and he needs more training and teammates to run in, so Lippi's plan is to let Tan Xibi play a friendly match, but he is also prepared for Tan Xibi to refuse to play a friendly game and recruit him in the future.

So Tan Xibi said that he should think about it, Lippi did not force him, and naturally he did not explain this matter to the Football Association, after all, the first training list was originally not Tan Xibi. If Tan Xibi agrees to come, he will just announce it, and there is no need to say hello to the Football Association in this regard.

What I didn't expect was that the General Administration of Sports knew that Tan Xibi was famous in Europe and designated him to return to China, Chairman Chai originally said that the power to choose players was in charge of Lippi, but other high-level leaders of the Football Association supported the decision of the leadership of the General Administration, and as a result, without the knowledge of Lippi and Tan Xibi, the latest training list was announced.

"Lao Liu, what I'm worried about is that Tan Xibi and the Football Association will be in trouble."

"Trouble? Hehe, Lao Tai, do you know why Tan Xibi dared to say so hard to quit the national team? ”

"Ah, Lao Liu, do you know the reason?"

"Lao Tai, do you remember that after the 2006 World Cup, Makelele announced his retirement from the national team, but the coach of the French team at that time, Domenech, forcibly recruited him into the team, which led to a huge controversy?"

"I seem to remember this, there was a lot of commotion at the time."

"Well, this incident begs the question of whether the national team needs to ask for the consent of the player himself. At that time, FIFA's clause supported Domenech's decision, which is why he treated Makelle so hard. ”

'I remember when Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho blasted Domenech in support of Makelele and pointed out that players don't have a choice.

"In the end, Makelle went to the national team, but the impact of this incident was very large, and later FIFA issued a statement pointing out that the clause is not unfavorable to the player, and there is a point in it, any player has the right to decide not to play for the national team anymore, and FIFA will not interfere with the player's decision. As for whether to leave the national team or retire from the national team, you should communicate with all parties in advance. ”

"This ...... Does it have anything to do with Tan Xibi's withdrawal from the national team? ”

"Lao Tai, he is only 18 years old, do you think he will choose to retire from the national team? Who believes it? ”

"Oh, Lao Liu, you are confused about me."

"Lao Tai, we interviewed Tan Xibi together, we are all very clear about his background, in fact, his blank national team background is the most unfavorable for the Chinese Football Association, because we should say that the Chinese national team will lose him permanently."

Taishan Shi looked at Liu Chuanfeng in shock, will the Huaguo team lose Tan Xibi permanently?

It can't be that serious, right? How much of a blow will this take on Chinese fans?

"Lao Tai, don't you understand? Tan Xibi's player qualification is in Europe, not in China, because he only started football training after going abroad, and in terms of becoming a player, Huaguo football has not helped him at all, so it can be said that he does not owe Huaguo football. The national team has the right to call him up, but he can refuse, and if the Football Association wants to punish him, he can choose to change his nationality and join a European country. Got it? ”

So that's it......

Tai Shanshi wiped the sweat from his forehead, but said with a sad face: "Tan Xibi really wants to change nationality?" ”

"Otherwise, why did he say quit the national team? You must know that not only has he not been selected for the national youth team at all levels, but he has not played for the national team, China does not support dual citizenship, he wants to join European countries, and he can only change his nationality. With his current strength and potential, do you think he will lack a next home? As soon as this news is announced, look at it, the European football powers will definitely rush to snatch him. ”

Taishan swallowed his saliva and opened his mouth to say something, but found that he couldn't say a word.

"Want to call him treason? Want to say he's not patriotic? A hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Liu Chuanfeng's mouth, "I know that there will be many moral emperors in China who stand on the moral high ground to hack him, Lao Tai, if you have Tan Xibi's strength, if you want to play at a higher level of the European Cup and the World Cup, will you choose your own country, or a frequent visitor to a major tournament in Europe?" ”

"I, I, I may choose my own country, after all, I am Chinese." Taishan Stone was intermittently authentic, but he didn't even believe what he said.

"So you're not Tan Xibi." Liu Chuanfeng smiled, "He separates football and politics very well, even if he joins other national teams, his heart is also a red Huaguo heart." ”

"How do you know?"

Liu Chuanfeng patted Taishan Shi's shoulder, looked at Tan Xibi's back, and smiled without saying a word.

Lao Tai, I, Liu Chuanfeng, have been a special correspondent based in London since the beginning of the 21st century, and I feel the pure football culture and atmosphere here.

Tan Xibi, in order to pursue the highest honor of football, you chose "betrayal", maybe you will be pointed at by domestic fans, all kinds of vicious abuse, but I believe that when you successfully lift the trophy, they, including me, will be proud of you!
