Walking outside his small courtyard, Fan Bizhuang was surprised to find that there were lights on in the house. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sure enough, when he opened the door, his agent, Mr. Molina, was sitting in the living room, boringly pressing the remote control in his hand, casually scrolling through the TV show.

"It seems like I'm a little late to come back today. What, did you go to a party with your teammates? Didn't drink a bar? ”

Molina smiled and nodded at him, then got up and poured him a cup of hot water.

"It's a party." Fan Bizhuang threw the sports bucket bag on the shoe cabinet, changed into slippers, walked into the living room, and sat down on the sofa, "By the way, when did you come back?" ”

"I arrived in the afternoon, and I went to Mr. Manuel's office and talked to him. You don't have to worry too much about the turmoil of the last few days, I've spoken to Villarreal and they're going to help you make clarifications on the official website and tell the fans that you'll stay in the town for the duration of your contract. I believe that the fans will soon calm down and will not cause any more troubles in your life and training. ”

"Well, that's for the best." Fan Bizhuang picked up the hot water on the table, took a sip, and asked casually, "How is Lauren?" “

During this time, Molina not only helped him deal with some business endorsement matters in various cities in Spain, but also occasionally took time to see Lauren's situation, and Molina replied: "I have adapted to it." You know, Van is not playing for a team that is very strong and does not have a lot of prospects. I just hope he can do well in the coming years and get the attention of some professional teams. Otherwise, I don't have much to do. “

"Oh."

Fan Bizhuang nodded, signaling that he knew.

Lauren's situation, he naturally knows very well, if there is no good opportunity, with Lauren's ability, it is difficult to return to the top league, as a friend, he can only care.

Fan Bizhuang didn't speak again, holding the water glass in both hands, leaning back against the soft elastic cushions of the sofa. During the Spring Festival, he found a corner and went to bite his tail, Molina continued to press the remote control, and the atmosphere in the living room fell silent.

After a long time, Molina put down the remote control in his hand and looked at his employer fixedly.

"You have something on your mind, Fan?"

has been with Fan Bizhuang for so long, Fan Bizhuang's temperament, as well as some small habits in life, Molina naturally knows a lot, seeing his silent appearance, Molina guessed that Fan Bizhuang has something hidden in his heart.

"Am I acting obvious?" Fan Bizhuang reopened his eyes and shook his head.

"It's not obvious, but who made me know you well. Tell me, what's going on? If there is a problem, the two of them may be able to find a solution by discussing it together. “

Molina sat up straight and listened.

Fan Bizhuang pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "It's a matter of the national team." “

Molina was stunned, and then smiled: "I thought it was something, that's it?" Actually, you don't have to think too much, Fan, now that your performance in the league is getting better and better, it will inevitably attract the attention of Coach Luis, and if your good form continues, it should not be long before the national team will send you an invitation. In fact, I've also received news during this time that Coach Luis seems to like you, and I think you should put all your energy into the game now and try to make a better and deeper impression on Coach Luis. “

The coach Luis in Molina's mouth is naturally not the coach of La Masia's reserve team. Enrique, but Luiz, who is now the head coach of the Spanish national team. Aragonés.

Fan Bizhuang shook his head, knowing that Molina had misunderstood, and what he said was completely different from what he wanted to express.

Seeing Fan Bizhuang shaking his head, Molina misunderstood it even more, he thought for a moment and continued: "Are you worried that you may not be called up from the national team after the end of the season? That's a problem. But Fan, it's a good thing to be able to participate in this edition of the European Cup, if you can't, don't be discouraged, you're still young, you're just emerging in the league, there are still many opportunities in the future, and what is more important to you is the future, not the present. Therefore, it is best to be able to participate in this year's European Championship, and if you can't, you don't have to take it too seriously. “

In his ears was Molina's chattering voice, but Fan Bizhuang rolled his eyes helplessly. Seeing that Molina still had a tendency to continue preaching, Fan Bizhuang hurriedly waved his hand to stop him.

"Mr. Contesares, what do you think if I want to change my nationality?" Organized the wording, Fan Bizhuang leisurely exited.

The tone was understated, but to Molina's ears, it was like a thunderclap on the ground.

"What? Change of nationality? You mean, you want to change your nationality and play for another national team? How did you have such an idea? Molina jumped up from the sofa in shock, his eyes widened, his eyes were full of incredulity, "Could it be that people from other countries have contacted you privately?" Who is it? I'll see, is it Portugal? They are closest to us and know you better, and if someone takes a fancy to you and convinces you to join them, Portugal should be one. Or, England? We've been to London and we've been in contact with Sir Alex Ferguson. But...... No, Sir Alex Ferguson is not the manager of the Three Lions, so he shouldn't be boring enough to take care of the England national team, right? Could it be the German national team? Schuster is German, as if he values you very much......"

The more Molina talked, the more outrageous it became, and he speculated and talked about several countries, but Fan Bizhuang ignored it, just remembering the expectant eyes of the southern uncle when he was parting just now, and the disillusioned look of loss later, his heart was faintly touched. He didn't really want to change his nationality, but he had this casual question for some reason, and seeing Molina's violent reaction, Fan Bizhuang could only shake his head secretly.

"Don't take it personally, Mr. Contrares, I'm just asking." Fan Bizhuang stood up and prepared to go upstairs to rest, "It's not early, I'm going to rest." “

So saying, he lifted his feet and went upstairs.

Behind him, Molina was still frowning and thinking hard, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of a reason, shook his head, and shouted at Fan Bizhuang, who had already gone upstairs: "Fan, don't think nonsense, honestly devote yourself to the league, with your performance, you will definitely have a place in the Spanish national team in the future!" “

"Got it!"

Fan Bizhuang's figure had disappeared, but his voice faintly came from upstairs.

Molina didn't think much of it, shook her head, sat down again, and continued to fiddle with the remote control.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the next two days, Fan Bizhuang's life was not much different from before, basically two points and one line between home and training ground. The only difference is that after the training, I will take some time to chat with my compatriots from China, and occasionally take pictures with them.

There are still a lot of fans in the small town gathered around the training ground, but the number is much less than before, Fan Bizhuang and the official club together to open rumors, saying that he will continue to stay in the team and will not go anywhere.

The fans' "indignation" finally subsided, the pressure on Fan Bizhuang was reduced a lot, and the team was finally able to carry out daily training normally without being too troubled.

Time flies by and Sunday is fast approaching, and Villarreal is also at home to the opponent of the 18th round of the league, the team from Catalonia, Espanyol.

Espanyol are also an old team in La Liga, and their strength is not bad, they are currently in 12th place in the league, they are not up or down, there is no danger of relegation, and there is no hope of entering the European arena for the time being - of course, this is not a definite thing, the league is only halfway through, if in the second half of the league, they can go crazy upward, maybe there is still a place to qualify for the European stage.

But that hope is very small. They are not Real Madrid, they are not Barcelona, they are just a team that has been in the middle and bottom of the table all year round, and it is not a little difficult to suddenly soar to beat more than a dozen competitors.

Speaking of which, Espanyol is also a rather "tragic" team, every season, their results are not good, but not bad, and they can always stay at the top level, they can be regarded as meritorious. As a matter of common sense, they should also have a lot of supporters.

But in reality, they really don't have much presence.

The reason is that the other team in the same region is so strong and influential that they are often overlooked - in Catalonia, most fans support Barcelona, and there is not much attention to Spain, which is also a team in the top league. In the outside world, most of them regard Barcelona as a representative of Catalonia, and when it comes to this region, the first thing that comes to mind is Barcelona, and the Espanyol team is either not mentioned, or it is the "soy sauce role" in other people's mouths.

Live in the yin of the super giants Barcelona... Under the shadow, the plight of the Spaniards can be imagined. The two teams have always been hostile, and the Spaniards have played more desperately in the process of hostility - as we all know, Real Madrid and Barcelona are the most direct competitors in La Liga, and the Spaniards are happy to act as the "-stirring stick", in the league, when facing Barcelona, the Spaniards must be like a chicken blood, there is a fierce posture that I can't beat you, and I have to fight with you, and when facing Real Madrid, the fighting spirit is not high, giving people the feeling that they are "releasing water".

Of course, this is just a joke after dinner, but in the concept of Espanyol, the enemy of the enemy is not a friend, but there is no deep hatred, anyway, as long as they can make Barcelona unhappy, they will be happy.

This kind of mentality is really a bit ridiculous.

However, this is a "grudge" between Espanyol and Barcelona, which has nothing to do with Villarreal. The aim of the small city team is simple, to get the win in this game, and despite the team's poor form in the last two months, it is precisely because of this that they have to fight for every point.

They have dropped so many points that they shouldn't have conceded and there is no other way for them to achieve what they set before the season but to win.
