Chapter 19: Relieved
The news of Zhenma and Descartes is like a hurricane blowing through the world, even the media did not expect that a paparazzi here had just photographed Zhenma entering Descartes's apartment, and the news of their breakup came early in the morning.
Of course, he would not say that he would break up with the outside world, and Zhenma just said in an interview that he thanked Descartes for helping him get rid of Ronaldo's trouble, so he specially went over to thank him.
But have you ever seen a person drag a suitcase to someone else's room in the middle of the night to thank you?
Believe it or not, the media don't believe it.
Since they don't believe it, of course they have to dig out the truth of this matter at all costs, "there is only one truth", the first to say this was not Detective Conan, but those paparazzi who did not hesitate to sacrifice everything, including reputation, for the sake of great ideals.
However, both parties to this matter were unanimously silent, and they had the intention to go to the other "half of the party" Ronaldo to find some news, but they were scolded by a bloody meal, and the reporters simply hated the sky and the ground, and they were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they didn't know where to start.
The Sun even gave a bonus of £500,000, claiming that the truth of the matter must be investigated.
It's a pity that of the two parties, Gemma didn't want to say it, and Descartes didn't lack the 500,000, so this matter eventually became a big mystery in the football world, until many years later, Gemma's new boyfriend, another striker from Wigan Athletic, Cahill. Witherspoon stabbed the inside story to the media, and broke up with Zhenma for this and went to court.
A vigorous love came to an end, including a wonderful beginning, an eye-catching **, but in the end there was a lack of an ending that made the world envious, it was really a bit disappointing, no wonder even the giants of the gaming industry were complaining: they originally set a big gamble for the shelf life of this love, but they didn't expect the whole story to end in a hurry, which made the gaming industry lose more than one billion in revenue!
At this point, the only person who can feel relieved is probably Descartes.
He was in the same state as a cat stealing fish, feeling both irritated and afraid of being caught by his owner, and this highly stressed mental state directly affected his performance on the training ground and on the pitch, and in the first half of the season, his performance was up and down, completely off the pitch, and the more playing time that the professor promised him before the season was completely ruined by himself.
Although he feels a little sad because of Zhenma's departure, in any case, this also makes him let go of a heavy burden, and without the interference of off-field factors, his performance has gradually begun to improve again.
The only thing that makes Mr. Wenger unhappy is that Descartes has been deceiving him in this matter, as the person who has the highest expectations for Descartes, Mr. Wenger has made Descartes feel creepy when he looks at him these days.
In the whole team, one of the few people who can still use this to ridicule Descartes is probably the heartless Diabi, as a member of the trio of eating and drinking, he and another member have a serious contempt for Descartes: "Ya actually didn't tell my brother for so long, and let us think that you have lost interest in beauty and parties, it turns out that you are hiding in the house and secretly trying it, you should be punished!" At least go to the Jass bar for a week, otherwise how can you soothe the wounded hearts of your brothers? ”
Descartes was still a little apprehensive about this, and the sound of Angeli's kitten-like crying lingered in his mind all night long, so he finally chose to break the fortune and ward off the disaster, the money could be paid, but the people did not go.
Diabi and the others finally had some understanding of his mind, and did not force him, in fact, everyone dragged him to the bar not really to punish him for that little money, but just to let him vent and regain his spirits.
As Descartes' performance gradually improved, he finally began to have a steady playing time in the game, and due to Adebayor's brilliant performance in the league this season, Descartes replaced Van Persie for most of the time, and Van did not say anything on the surface, but began to see Descartes as a serious competitor.
This kind of scene is what Wenger is happy to see, there is competition to improve, he is optimistic about Descartes, but he will not snub Van Persie either, and there are two strikers with different characteristics in the team, Eduardo and Bendtner, Wenger finally feels a kind of happiness that has never been seen before.
After the draw with Manchester United, Arsenal's performance finally began to decline, the first half of the league was too crazy performance, but also greatly consumed the enthusiasm of the players, on November 6, Arsenal in the Champions League group stage 0-0 away to Slavia Prague, back to the league, they won Reading and Wigan Athletic, but when they appeared in Europe again, they finally ushered in the first defeat of the season.
At the Pizjuan Stadium in Seville, Spain, Sevilla relied on the wonderful performance of Brazilian striker Fabiano to defeat Arsenal, who have been unbeaten in all competitions so far this season, 3:1.
Arsenal didn't fall as hoped, but instead seemed to let go of a heavy baggage, and three days later, they won again at Aston Villa in the Premier League to catch up with Manchester United, who had just suffered their second defeat of the season at Reebok Stadium, a 1-0 defeat at Bolton Wanderers.
Arsenal, who are back at the top of the league table after 15 rounds, are of course extremely happy, and the fans also came to the gate of the Kearney base with a salute like a holiday, and on the barbed wire fence outside the training base, countless fans surrounded the Arsenal players shouting their names loudly, hoping that their idols could come to chat with them and ask for autographs by the way.
Among these fans, Descartes's young female fans are the most, his delicate appearance, and that never-ending but vigorous love history, let him win the infatuation of countless girls, whenever he takes the ball on the court or performs well, there will always be a scream that pierces the eardrums, so that the black charcoal head Diabi and others next to him are so envious that they are almost drowned in saliva.
It is worth mentioning that in the match against Aston Villa, Descartes scored another goal and received an assist, turning his current statistics into three goals and four assists, and has become more and more important in the team recently.
On 5 December, Arsenal will face England giants Newcastle United in the second round of the season, when Arsenal postponed their European Cup qualifying tie against Sparta Prague to December, and if they win, they will head into the Christmas schedule four points ahead of Manchester United.
The so-called Christmas schedule refers to the period from December 20th to January 4th, the Premier League has to play as many as 4 rounds of league games, which is a severe test for all teams.
Arsene Wenger certainly wants his team to enter this devilish schedule with a bigger advantage, so he sees this game against Newcastle as a warm-up before the final, and asks the team to play with momentum and level no matter what.
When it comes to Newcastle, a name that people can't forget is, of course, Shearer, who has played for the Magpies for ten years, Shearer has become a symbol of Newcastle, especially his old-fashioned way of celebrating, has been ridiculed countless times by countless media and opponents, but everyone knows that this is a terrifying shooting machine, he is the first in the Premier League's overall scorer list, the best player of the Premier League for ten years, and the winner of the Premier League Outstanding Contribution Award.
Unfortunately, Shearer announced his retirement in 2006, and since his departure, the Magpies have begun to decline in turmoil, and at the beginning of this season, wealthy businessman Ashley announced the acquisition of Newcastle United and brought in the famous coach Allardyce for the team, hoping to rebuild the Magpies into a formidable team.
At Sam Allardyce's request, Newcastle have brought in Allan this season. Smith, Rozenar, Graemi, Barton, Viduka and other giants, supplemented by the team's original Owen, Duff, Emre, Milner, Given, Martins and other players, can be called the best Newcastle after Shearer.
Leading such a team, Allardyce was full of ambition, originally thought that with the support of the new owner Jin Yuan, under his wise leadership, Newcastle would soar this season and re-embark on the road of revival, but he did not expect that the reality gave him a cruel blow:
Martins, the little black man, was more of a track and field athlete than Walcott at this time, and he had few other skills other than the speed at which he could not change gears; And Owen, once the "Son of the Wind", is now a "British patient", and his fragile knees have repeatedly forced him to stay in the hospital longer than he trains.
The four big men in the midfield, Smith, Barton, Duff, and Dyer, the desire for red and yellow cards is more than the desire to play, and Allardyce does not dare to let more than two of the four play at the same time, otherwise they will have to face the dilemma of being absent at any time.
And the Turkish little Emre, we can only say that the current Emre is no longer the Emre of Inter, the former passers and passes have become history, and he is now only left with a potato-like stature and slow pace.
The other two midfielders Solano and Milner, old and young, are either past their peak, or they have not yet grown up, Allardyce himself is also very worried, and if he continues to play according to this result, he doesn't know if he can wait until the day when Milner opens his mind.
The hard midfield is not Newcastle's biggest problem, the biggest problem is also their tofu dregs like defense, Geremi, Taylor, Edgar, Babayaro, Rozenal, these players are all first-class defensive players, but Allardyce didn't understand why the team's backline became a sieve after they were put together, conceded 25 goals in 15 games, and only ranked sixth from the bottom of the 20 Premier League teams, such a defense, It's a thing to win!
At present, Newcastle ranks 11th in the league with 15 games, 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses. In Ashley's first season at St James' Park, apart from bringing in a group of nursing home stars, all he had left was time to fight with the fans over the name of the home naming rights.
There is also an interesting history of the renaming of St James' Park, as Newcastle have reached a partnership agreement with an online bookmaker, SportsDirect, and owner Ashley intends to rename St James' Park to SportsdirectArena.
This was an immediate outrage, with die-hard Magpies fans claiming that Ashley had betrayed Newcastle's 119-year history and was the team's worst enemy, with tens of thousands of fans gathering outside St James' Park to protest, and they even erected a grave with the name "St James' Park" engraved on the tombstone to show their defense of the team's home name, and of course, Ashley's name was engraved on the back of this tombstone, indicating that he would be the sinner of the team and be engraved on the pillar of shame for the rest of his life.
The wave of protests from the fans made Ashley flinch for a while, but it did not discourage him from selling the naming rights to the team's home stadium, and the matter dragged on for two years, and in 2009, due to the economic crisis, Ashley could no longer hold on, so he sold his home stadium to the online bookmaker, and St James' Park was officially renamed Sportsdirect Arena.
Just before the name change, a young man named Graeme took a floor tile engraved with his father's name on the St James' Park passage, which he carved for his father on his 72nd birthday in 2000, and the Graeme family has been Magpies fans for generations, and he did this only because he was already desperate for the slamming and ugly face of the team's owner, Ashley, and he wanted to express his position to all the Newcastle fans.
A team that has lost their ambition and the support of their fans is almost a matter of course for them to walk on the road to decline.
And Arsenal will play next against this former Premier League powerhouse that is going downhill. (To be continued.) )
