After Zhang Jun's brace against Parma, no one will doubt his quality anymore, some will just admire. Yang Pandu said that Zhang Jun's goal drove away a lot of "flies", but attracted more "flies".

Illaria Damiko is one of the "flies", a "fly" with a surname.

"I'd like to invite you to this weekend night's 'Champions & Dreams'." Damiko smiled at Zhang Jun, and she smiled charmingly.

Originally, this kind of invitation should have gone to his agent Hua Fang, and then Hua Fang informed Zhang Jun that he decided whether to go or not, but now Damiko directly invited Zhang Jun after a brief interview.

This is not in accordance with the procedure. Zhang Jun thought about it, but ...... It doesn't matter anymore.

"But I don't know Italian."

"That's no problem, because we also invited your friends." Damiko looked at Yang Pan beside Zhang Jun. "Yang Pan will also participate in our show."

Yang Pan was a little surprised: "But I haven't agreed yet, Miss Damiko." ”

"But I don't think you refused?" Damiko smiled.

Yang Pan thought about it for a while, being able to host the show hosted by Ilalia Damiko on the gold medal would be greatly beneficial to the improvement of his reputation, and it would not hurt to agree. Then he looked at Zhang Jun and found that Zhang Jun was also looking at him, and the two of them understood what the other meant.

"Alright then, Miss Damiko, we agreed. Zhang Jun and I will go when the time comes. Yang Pan, on behalf of Zhang Jun, agreed.

Damiko was amused by the fact that the two of them could communicate with just their eyes, "Have you asked Zhang Jun?" ”

"Yes, I asked. He thinks the same as I do. Yang Pan nodded.

"That's good, I'm looking forward to the weekend show." Damiko laughed.

"So do we." Yang Pandao.

"Goodbye then, I'm going back to editing." Damiko waved his hand and was about to leave, but Yang Pan stopped her: "Miss Damico, are we the only ones participating in the show?" ”

Damiko turned around and said, "No, there are two more. One is your teammate Kaka, and the other is Inter Milan's Li Yongle. ”

Looking at Damiko's distant back, Zhang Jun asked Yang Pan: "What does she want to do?" Is there a reunion of the third and third classes of Aurora High School? ”

"The devil knows." Yang Pan muttered.

β€»β€»β€»

"I can be on TV, it's all because of your light." Li Yongle was in the villa of Zhang and Yang, and he was very happy to eat the free dinner, and at the same time expressed his "gratitude" to the two.

"No sincerity at all." Yang Pan looked at Li Yongle and pouted.

"Li Yongle is wrong, in fact, the three of us are all stained with Zhang Jun's double light!" "If he doesn't score, the TV station won't remember this episode and let us go." You say yes, Zhang Jun? ”

Zhang Jun just smirked, he didn't know what to say.

"Hmm, but that Damiko has a good sense of surname......" Li Yongle said vaguely with something stuffed into his mouth.

"Slow down, slow down. Look at you like you haven't eaten in days. Inter must have tortured you inhumanely, just come to AC Milan! Kaka frowned and said, "How pure Li Yongle was in high school, Zhang Jun and Sophie have established a relationship, and you haven't even held a girl's hand." But look at you now, tsk, thinking about something unhealthy all the time. I've only been with Anke for a few days at Christmas, and I'm contaminated! ”

"Come on, I don't want to think about which silver man I have been with for a long time in a silvery city like Milan?" Li Yongle retorted.

Yang Pan explained to Zhang Jun on the side: "It's common for the two of them to quarrel like this. But what makes me strange is that the relationship between the two of them is getting better and better, no wonder reporters have that kind of speculation......"

"You give me death!" The two who were still fighting pointed the finger at Yang Pan in unison.

Zhang Jun laughed on the sidelines. There are one or two times a week, people from different schools in the same city, from different countries, and now it's really not easy to sit and eat together in the same place. It was football that brought them together and made them very good friends, and now we play for two rival teams, but that doesn't affect their friendship. Of course, Zhang Jun absolutely believes that if he and Li Yongle have a chance to meet in the game, this guy will definitely not be polite. In the same way, he won't be polite.

"Li Yongle, you haven't played yet? Do you have a share in the next round? Wait until everyone has had enough, Zhang Jun asked.

"No! But I'm not in a hurry, and being in the first team has already shown what I'm capable of. I'm just waiting for my chance, and I'm just training when it's time to train. Spending time with a group of stars every day really learns a lot. ”

Zhang Jun feels that he has a good mentality now, he is not impatient when he doesn't score, and he is not proud when he scores, but the mentality of the people around him is better than him. Yang Pan and Li Yongle may not even be able to play the game now, but it is indeed not easy to have such a normal heart. If he were himself, he didn't know if he could keep his normal heart even if he couldn't play in a row? That's really a problem.

Well...... Maybe, yes. Zhang Jun said to himself in his heart.

β€»β€»β€»

Friday night's episode of "Champions and Dreams" was broadcast on Italian television and hosted by Iralia Damico. This show has a good reputation among fans in Italy, and many people pay attention to it.

Damiko wore a low-cut outfit as she was customary on the show, and the large white flowers on her chest and neck reflected the light, which was a little dazzling. Zhang Jun was shaken away, to be honest, it was not the first time he had met a beautiful woman when he was doing a show, but it was the first time he had seen a beautiful woman dressed so boldly.

Before coming to make a show, Yang Pan made up some of the current situation and traditions of Italian TV media for Zhang Junwei. Since Sky TV* bought out the broadcast rights of Serie A, many public television stations with surnames in Italy have no right to broadcast Serie A, and ordinary viewers have to pay to install Sky TV's pay channels to watch the game. In order to compete for advertisers and attract the attention of the majority of TV viewers, especially fans with male surnames, public television stations have come up with the practice of adding beautiful hosts or guests to football commentary programs. These beauties are called "showgirls". There was also a striptease performance in the broadcast of the second division in a certain region of Italy. There are even special universities in Italy that admit young and beautiful girls and train them to become "showgirls" who specialize in their bodies and appearances on TV. The TV stations in Italy, large and small, are the counterparts of those girls after graduation. This is already a very common thing in Italy, and the love story hosted by the star and the beauty is also played out every year.

Although countless Italian men will ridicule those beautiful hosts in front of their wives and girlfriends for being "brainless", they are actually happy to watch shows hosted by "big-breasted" women.

In these soccer shows, the beautiful women are just an eye-catcher, and they usually rarely express their opinions on the show. Because almost everyone in Italy understands football, it is natural that some experts can be invited to participate in the show, and the beauties will speak casually and show ignorance will be ridiculed by the whole of Italy.

But not all beautiful hosts don't speak, and there are exceptions to everything. In Italy, there are three gold-medal beauty anchors with "breasts and brains", they are very famous and have many loyal fans, and they are often the guarantee of ratings. Ilalia Damico is one of the three, the others being Ferrari, who hosts "90 Minutes of Football," and Simone Ventura, who hosts "The ...... Who Do Football."

Illaria made a name for herself on Sky TV's Serie A weekend, and the fact that a 'showgirl' was able to host Sky TV's main event on her own, the four-hour league broadcast on the weekend, shows that she is outstanding. After her popularity rose, Italian TV was not willing to be lonely, inviting her to host a talk show "Champions and Dreams". Damico also made it sound and impressive, and became one of the ace programs of TV No. 1.

This time the show is also the first time that Chinese players have appeared in one of Italy's more influential TV programs, and it is not difficult to see the theme of this episode from the four people selected by D'Amico. As Zhang Jun guessed, Damiko asked them to tell the story of a very long time ago. During these years, they had spoken about it on CCTV5's "Sports Night Talk" program, and now they said it again in front of a curious Italian audience.

After falling into a deep nostalgia for the past, Li Yongle's nervousness also disappeared. And the audience at the scene and in front of the TV were even more fascinated. Although there is an interview with Kaliani to let everyone know the relationship between these four people. But the written stuff is far less appealing than for four people to come and tell it in person. As the four of them spoke, they sometimes laughed, frowned, and smiled easily. Despite differences in nationality, language, skin color, and culture, there are always emotions that human beings figure out, and friendship is one of them.

This episode of the show continued its usual high ratings, and after finishing the show, Damiko expressed his gratitude to Zhang Jun. "On behalf of the program team, I would like to express my gratitude to the four of you. You know, when we decided on this topic, we were all a little worried, because we had never tried to ask a few foreigners to tell what happened between them before, and we were afraid that maybe no one would watch it. But thank you very much for your input and cooperation, even I listened to it a little fascinated on the side. ”

Zhang Jun shook his head: "It should be that we thank you." You are the ones who make me so happy to remember the past. I'm a bit nostalgic, and every time I think about it, it makes me happy. So I personally want to thank you, Miss Damico. ”

Damiko smiled, "Please call me Illaria instead of Miss Damiko." That's too formal. She winked at Zhang Jun.

"But......" Zhang Jun seemed a little embarrassed, "is this too intimate?" ”

Yang Pan was translating for the two on the side, and he felt like he was being ignored.

"Privately, I prefer to be called this way, and when I talk about business, I will be called Miss Damico." Damiko shrugged, and with her low-cut outfit, the action was nothing short of tempting to sin. "We'll see each other more often in the future, so it's better for you to call me 'Illaria.'"

Zhang Jun hurriedly looked away, "Okay, since you don't mind, I'll call you Illaria." ”

Hearing Zhang Jun say this, Damiko smiled happily. She found the twenty-three-year-old to be simply too cute at times.

"If there's nothing going on, then we're going to take our leave, Illaria."

"Well, okay. You have to do your best for the game the day after tomorrow! ”

"We will, thank you for your concern, goodbye."

β€»β€»β€»

"Zhang Jun, what did that beautiful woman with the surname say when she pulled you? It took so long to come back. Sitting in Yang Pan's car, Kaka asked Zhang Jun curiously.

"Nothing, just thanking us...... Okay, Kaka, you kid dared to expose my ugliness when he was on the show, and now I can't spare you! Zhang Jun lunged at Kaka.

"Wow! Stay back! Come back and I'll call someone! ”

"Holy! Don't shake around! I'm driving here! Yang Pan shouted like this, and the two of them suddenly became honest, and they didn't dare to joke about their lives.

"That's right, Jun Zhang. Do you remember our last trip to London? Yang Pan asked.

"Remember, a third-rate inn, a chaotic neighborhood, and a bunch of thugs. What's wrong? ”

"Hey, your last name is really good." Yang Pan smiled, "Do you remember the most powerful blonde kid among them?" ”

"Of course, I remember, he made us suffer a lot." Zhang Jun recalled the situation that day, the child was not very old, but his ability was not small, and he had always cared about it.

"Do you know what he's doing now?"

"I don't know." Zhang Jun shook his head, how could he know that he was not a British paparazzi.

Yang Pan threw him a newspaper: "Read it yourself." Then he continued to drive his car.

"Yang Pan ......"

"Finished reading so soon?"

"Not ......"

"Then I'll talk about it after reading it."

"No, I can't see ...... clearly," Zhang Jun pointed to the inside of the car.

The two behind burst into laughter.

The car was moving, in order to see the outside clearly, the lights could not be turned on in the car, so Yang Pan had to tell him directly. 'He's in the Chelsea first-team squad now and that's getting a lot of attention from the Chinese media.'

Kaka didn't know what happened to the two of them, and it was a little strange to hear Yang Pan say this: "It's strange, why does an ordinary player in the Chelsea first team attract a lot of attention from the Chinese media? ”

Yang Pan smiled: "Well, Zhang Jun and I were also surprised when we first saw that guy, he has blonde hair and speaks fluent English, but he has yellow skin and black eyes." We called him the yellow-skinned Englishman. And the reason why the Chinese media pay attention to him is precisely because he is actually a Chinese. Oh, maybe it's more appropriate to call it Chinese. ”

"Chinese?" This time, even Zhang Jun was a little surprised, he thought that the other party was himself, but he didn't expect it to be Chinese.

"Well, according to the information investigated by the journalists, he was born in China, immigrated to the UK with his parents when he was three years old, and now he is a British citizen."

"How did I not know?"

"When did you say you read the newspapers and the news?" Yang Pan glanced at Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun scratched his head: "Hehe! Since that comeback, I haven't cared about it anymore. "He doesn't have much of a good feeling about the media right now, and that's how he feels after experiencing it himself. The media turned their hands into clouds and rain, in short, they have the final say on right and wrong. Zhang Jun hated this style of the media, and he knew that it was the norm in that industry, but he just didn't like it.

"Think about it, in the past two years, there have been endless newcomers to Chinese football, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and now the United Kingdom has another one, how can the Chinese media not be excited?"

"They're excited!" Zhang Jun scolded, "People are British nationals, and they can't play for the Chinese team." ”

Kaka blushed and coughed twice when he heard it in the back.

Yang Pan also heard it, and he laughed: "No! The situation of that kid and Kaka is different. He was born in China and later emigrated to England. However, according to the relevant Chinese laws, when he is 18 years old, he can choose his nationality once, whether it is China or the United Kingdom, depending on this choice. ”

"Is there a law here?" Kaka glanced at Li Yongle, and Li Yongle shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”

"I haven't heard of it either, but the newspapers say yes, because those reporters went to consult senior lawyers."

"No wonder those reporters are like dogs that smell meat......," Zhang Jun suddenly remembered that he didn't know what the other party's name was. Having said all that, what's that kid's name? ”

"Crewe, Crewe Lee."

β€»β€»β€»

"Crewe, tired of dealing with those reporters every day, right?" Chelsea youth head coach Perizzalo asked Crewe Lee, who was gobbling it up.

"Hmm...... A little. ”

"Don't let these off-the-field things distract you. This is your second time in the first team, so don't get pushed back like you did last time! "Perizzalo is talking about what happened in December last year.

In that English League Cup match, Mourinho selected a few players from the youth team in order to give the main players of the first team a full rest, and Crewe was also given the opportunity to play because of his outstanding performance in the youth team. In the second half, Mourinho sent Crewe, who was quite similar to his style of play, and wanted to use it to contain the opponent's No. 20, but he didn't expect Crewe to carry too much ball, not only repeatedly delayed the team's attacking opportunities, but was tackled by the opponent's No. 20 and played a counterattack after the opponent's No. 20 steal, scoring the equalizer, so that an insignificant League Cup was dragged by him to the point of choosing a replay. This made Abou angry, and Mourinho had no choice but to throw Crewe back into the youth team under pressure to retrain him. His short senior career came to an abrupt end.

Crewe was so busy eating that he could only nod his head to express himself.

After all, he is still a child, and he is still growing his body! Perizzalo looked at Crewe lovingly. He was a single old man with no children and Crewe, an orphan who had never heard him talk about his parents, so he took the child he had found in the streets as his own, took him to the Chelsea youth team for systematic training, and took him to his own home to take care of his food and daily life.

Crewe is a real talent, and when he first joined the youth team at the age of fifteen, he was one-on-one with players three years his senior, and he never lost. At 1.77 meters, he is not strong, perhaps because of the orphans, he is malnourished. But he can use technology, and there are many movements that others can't imagine. English football has always paid little attention to technology, so many young players tend to be a bit rigid, and it is a blessing from God that such players can still play cards out of common sense in such an environment. That's why Perizzalo has always been careful to protect Crewe's talent in this area. Even when he was sent back to the youth team for being too fancy, he didn't blame Crewe, just asked him to pay a little attention to teamwork. But compared to these, there are more headaches for Perizalo.

Crewe is a gangster and a street footballer, so he has a lot of bad habits. For example, when playing football, there are many small movements that are uncomfortable, and there is also a temper that is too short-tempered, and it is easy to do it. Perizzalo tries to change Crewe's gangster style, but Crewe agrees well in front of him, and when he turns around, he doesn't know where he has forgotten.

In this regard, in addition to frequent reminders, Perizzalo can only shake his head and smile bitterly. Of course, in the warm-up game of the youth team, Crewe got into trouble, and it was he, the head coach and de facto guardian of Crewe, who stepped in to clean up the mess for him.

It's been almost two years in the blink of an eye, and Crewe has grown from a 1.77 meter boy to a 1.85 meter tall boy, from a street gangster to a Chelsea first-team player.

"Crewe, next week against Arsenal, Mourinho said to me that you might be on the bench, if you can play, you have to behave, don't be impulsive!"

"Hmm......" Crewe continues to "fight" with food.

"Did you really hear that?"

"Yes, I hear you, uncle." Crewe was finally able to free his mouth to speak.

But looking at his indifferent look, Perizzalo had a very bad premonition.

β€»β€»β€»

Chelsea have risen rapidly in the last two years thanks to a large injection of money. And as they became the upstarts, they also had a lot of conflicts and contradictions with the old aristocracy and the city's rival Arsenal on various fronts.

Arsenal manager Wenger gritted his teeth against Mourinho. Because in the past two years, Mourinho has to let Abou get involved in all the players he fancies. Coupled with Mourinho's mouth, he did not lose to Alex Ferguson at all, and last season was even worse for Arsenal to defend the league title. In the first leg of this season's clash at Stamford Bridge, Arsene Wenger is desperate for revenge.

Although Abou is rich and Chelsea is star-studded, he also has confidence in his own team, and Dennisbergkamp is old, but unfortunately before he retired, he produced a second 'Denis Bergkamp' for Arsenal - Robin vanpersie. Reyes is maturing and FranΓ§esc Fabregas has learned a lot from Vieira, with the likes of Henry, Robert Pires, Patrick Vieira and others in their prime. The stable squad and tacit understanding are Arsenal's advantages, so Wenger also shouted the pride of winning the championship this season.

However, Jose Mourinho, the most proud coach in the Premier League at the moment, immediately ridiculed Arsenal's goals for the season as "inadequate".

Originally, in the Premier League, Wenger and Ferguson have been "humiliating" each other for eight years, and this has basically become an indispensable part of the Premier League. But now, with the age of Ferguson and his appreciation of Mourinho, from the beginning of this season, the baton of "humiliating" Wenger has been handed to Mourinho. British journalists don't worry about making a living, and fans don't worry about not having fun.

For these reasons, Chelsea's first London derby at home to Arsenal in the 05/06 season attracted the attention of the whole of England and even Europe.

β€»β€»β€»

Unlike Arsene Wenger, who was secretive about the starting line-up, Chelsea announced their starting line-up for the game 24 hours in advance, as well as a list of substitutes. It seems that he wants to put pressure on Arsenal through this kind of well-thought-out behavior. Mourinho, the "madman coach", is really crazy.

Unlike the English media, which studied Chelsea's starting line-up, the Chinese media all looked at the bench, where a Chinese-born player was sitting.

Crewe Lee is now just an ordinary player registered with the FA, which will not attract the attention of the British media, and there is too much fancy news waiting for the paparazzi. But after watching his training, the Chinese media insisted that the player would become famous in the future. Of course, there are concerns about whether this very different style of player will survive in the Premier League, after all, no one wants to see Joe Cole as he is now. Most people ignore this concern. Because he is also a technical striker, but Mourinho did not bring Joe Cole, but prepared Crewe Lee for this game, which is very telling. Jose Mourinho feels a good technical midfielder would be very useful in the Chelsea squad, otherwise he would have brought neither. Using Crewe Lee instead of Joe Cole can only show that Joe Cole has lost the aura of his debut, and Crewe is only seventeen years old this year, and there is still a lot of room for appreciation.

"Look! Sure enough, in the substitute list, I just don't know if I can play. ”

"Be content, man! With his ability, it's good to be on the bench! ”

"Damn! Why is he not playing for us to pay so much attention to? What is there to write about sitting on the bench for ninety minutes? ”

"Write about mental activity, let's have some stream of consciousness."

"Just kidding!"

β€»β€»β€»

Crewe walked alone at the back of the line, carrying an Adidas backpack emblazoned with the Chelsea Lion logo, which contained his kit, socks, boots and shin guards, which was all he had.

The first time I used the dressing room at Stamford Bridge, I was a little unfamiliar and a little restrained. Captain John Terry came up to help him get acquainted, and he let go.

It was a big game, and he could have guessed from the length of time Mourinho had been frowning these days, that Arsenal were strong. But he's not so worried about that now, he doesn't even know if he can play.

Compared to Arsenal, the Chinese journalists are more worrying about him. He didn't know why they were so concerned about themselves. Because you were born in China? But he has already become a British citizen now, and it should be British, what does China's affairs have to do with him?

Terry had always felt that Crewe was very preoccupied today. He's not like that when he trains in the first team, he gets along well with everybody. Terry felt that as a captain, it was important for him to care for the new players and show his sense of responsibility.

"Crewe, you can't be nervous, are you?"

Crewe looked up and saw Terry's smiling face, shook his head, and didn't say anything.

"And said no! Look at it, you can't even speak! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Actually, don't worry so much. Arsenal get to Stamford Bridge and we're not going to let them smile and go back. Didn't we win them here last season? So I said, there's no need to worry, what are you worried about......"

In fact, Terry is a very good person, although he became a captain at a young age, but he has no frame at all. Crewe had heard of his "good name" when he was still in the youth team, as he was always eager to help newcomers. But this man is just a little too wordy.

Now Crewe felt as if there were thousands of flies flying around his ears. In order not to suffer any more, Crewe hurriedly squeezed out a smile and smiled at Terry: "Thank you John, I'm not nervous at all now." ”

Terry let out a long sigh of relief, and the care was over.

Crewe and the rest of the locker room also breathed a sigh of relief as the ordeal ended.

Jose Mourinho had just laughed at the door with a couple of reporters: "Arsene Wenger said he was going to beat us here? Ha ha! You should think of it as a joke, and a very cold, cold joke. ”

As soon as he turned around, he straightened his face when he entered the door: "Wenger, that bastard!" He even said he was going to be here, kicking us a 3:0 at Stamford Bridge! Mourinho pointed to his feet.

The manager's emotions have a direct impact on the players, a theorem that has been proven countless times with both Arsenal and Manchester United.

A group of team members waved the towels in their hands and roared like lions on their badges: "Destroy them!" ”

"Kick Arsene Wenger's ass!"

"Kick him straight back to his hometown in France!"

It was the first time Crewe had seen such a scene, and he thought it was funny, but after looking at Mourinho's iron-clad face, he tried his best to hold back the laughter.

Jose Mourinho naturally knew that these players would not really kick Arsene Wenger's ass, but he stirred up their fighting spirit and his goal was achieved.

He also understood that the old man of Alex Ferguson may not really dislike Wenger to the point of no return, it is entirely because of the needs of the team. Maybe after everyone retires, the two can still have a drink together, but definitely not now, because one of them is the manager of Manchester United and the other is the manager of Arsenal. It is customary for the managers of both rival teams to sit together for a drink after the Premier League game to show their gentlemanly tradition. But not between Arsenal and Manchester United.

β€»β€»β€»

Mourinho looked at his watch, it was almost time, he threw away the marker, and then asked the crowd: "Is everyone clear?" ”

"No problem, Coach!" The players shouted loudly, Lao Mu's tactics are simple and easy to understand: that is, to use the home advantage, attack, and attack as much as possible.

β€œok! Now......" he said, pointing to the door behind him, word by word, "go and kick Wenger's ass for me!" ”
