Chapter 795: End of Summer Reinforcements
The entire Chelsea squad took a flight to Tokyo, Japan, at London Heathrow International Airport at 9am on 21 July.
It is worth mentioning that Sturridge and Bertrand, who had many appearances last season, are also among them, as is Zhang Linpeng, the captain of the Chinese national youth team who was brought in from Shanghai Dongya last season, but he will not meet the team until the third commercial leg of Chelsea's Asian tour because he is preparing for the Under-20 World Youth Championship in Egypt in September this year.
It was already the second day of arrival in Tokyo, and countless enthusiastic Japanese fans came to the scene to pick up the plane.
The craziest fans were young women, and there were countless fans holding up posters of Iro, which caused other Chelsea players to complain, especially Mikel and Essien.
In the afternoon, the Chelsea players, led by Arlo and John Terry, participated in the sponsorship event, and the next night there was a warm-up match against Tokyo FC at Ajinomoto Stadium, due to the huge gap between the two sides, it was 6-0 at the end of the first half, and in the second half Chelsea replaced all the main players, replacing them with substitutes and youth team players.
In the end, Chelsea beat Tokyo FC 9-1 at Ajinomoto Stadium.
On the evening of the game, the whole Chelsea squad flew to Seoul, South Korea, similar to Tokyo, and the afternoon and evening of the second day were all about participating in sponsorship activities and programs, but to Eyro's surprise, there was also a Girls' Generation group who participated in the event together.
"Hey, that beautiful woman with slightly curly hair is so familiar, do you think it's a bit like the Korean girl you soaked in last year's Club World Cup in Tokyo?"
At this time, Modric pressed his elbow against Iroh's ribs and said with a wink.
Ailuo rolled his eyes and said lightly: "Go and go, Koreans all look the same, you are dazzled!" ”
"No, it's really like..."
"Like like like you, like your sister!"
It didn't take long for Ashley Cole, Mikel, and Terry to find that one of the beauties in the girl group who participated in the event was very similar to the beauty that Elloh met last year. ”
"And...... The first kiss you had with her was my help! ”
Iroh was very speechless, so he could only continue to roll his eyes, and just as he was pretending to be confused, Lin Yun'er took the initiative to come over with his good friends Cui Xiuying, Xu Zhuxian and other friends.
"Whoa!!"
Mikel, Essien, and Terry, who usually like to make a little noise, all squeeze their eyebrows at Iroh.
Lin Yun'er slightly powdered and delicate, coupled with a tight T-shirt and knee-length skirt that set off her upper body, perfectly reflected her angelic face and devilish figure, but Ailuo's inner ecstasy could only pretend to be helpless and took a step forward, and stretched out her right hand like a gentleman: "Yun'er, long time no see." ”
"Yes, Brother Iro, it's been almost a year in the blink of an eye." Lin Yun'er smiled, but it was difficult to hide the resentment in her tone, but because there were too many people in the lounge, she turned around and pulled her friends Choi so-young and Seo Joo-hyun and said, "Su-young, Joo-hyun, and so-yeon, don't you like Brother Ailuo very much?" I'll give you an introduction, and I'll sign it for you later. ”
It is difficult for Airo to accept the grace of the beauty, and under the warm treatment of Choi so-young, Seo Joo-hyun and Jung so-yeon, she can only cooperate with autographs and group photos.
Of course, in this case, the self-proclaimed suave Ailuo naturally will not give up the opportunity to eat tofu, which makes the beautiful women constantly coquettish.
It was his teammate's turn to roll his eyes and say inwardly, "Beast! However, the reason why they resonated with each other was that Iroh was heavy on sex and light on friends, and took all three beautiful girls without giving them a chance to touch them......
At the same time, Lin Yuner also bit her lower lip lightly, looking aggrieved.
After a while, the three beautiful girls who got the autograph and the group photo left Airo aside, walked out with their mobile phones, and presumably posted them on social networks to show off.
What's interesting is that a few teammates who were still coaxing just now also walked out, and I don't know if it was to meet several other girl groups or to create an atmosphere for Iro, in short, in the blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the lounge, Ailuo and Lin Yun'er, looking at each other.
What happened next was a bit more cliché, with Lim Yoona complaining and Iroh looking for various reasons.
※※※
That night, Eloh left Chelsea's hotel in disguise and took a taxi to the girl's hotel.
What happened next was quite normal, and Aroh and the resentful Lin Yun'er fought for three hundred rounds until they begged for mercy.
Thereupon...... In the commercial match played at the Seoul World Cup Stadium the next evening, Iroh ran much less than the previous one, and Mourinho thought that it was just too much of a recent event and commercial match, so he didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, it was just a commercial game.
Only Ello's roommate Modric knew, and he hummed inwardly: "I with a Korean girl all night last night, and it's strange that I can run!" ”
However, Iroh still took advantage of a goalmouth grab and a free-kick to show his superiority at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, where Chelsea won 7-0.
Chelsea arrived in Shanghai on the 29th, considering that it was the home country of Iello and Zhang Linpeng, who had just returned to the team, and they were expected to spend the longest time here, including the first two days to participate in commercial activities, the afternoon of the third day was for public training at the Hongkou Professional Football Stadium, and the fourth day was for a commercial match with Shanghai Mythology.
There is no doubt that the whole Chelsea squad has just arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport, and everyone from the coaches, officials and players to the Chinese fans have seen the enthusiasm of the Chinese fans, especially the love for Iello, and almost every fan who came to the airport to greet them was holding up Iello posters or related slogans and banners.
Of course, there are other Chelsea players who do, but they feel a little bit less than Elo.
"I'm going to it, and no one is holding up my poster! No reason!! Could it be that it was wrong to choose talent when you could eat by appearance? ”
After walking out of the airport, Mikel pouted and muttered.
The voice was small, but it was also heard by the likes of Modric, Terry, and Ielloh, and he was naturally responded to by a good-natured laugh.
After two days of commercial activities and open training, the commercial match at the Hongkou Professional Football Stadium on the evening of the second day was packed to the full, and the fans who came to the scene saw for the first time two Chinese players in the new Champions League winner Chelsea, and the cheers continued.
That's right, Ailuo and Zhang Linpeng made their debut at the same time.
In the end, the commercial game was played again, Chelsea defeated Shanghai Myth 6-1, and full-back Zhang Linpeng, who played for the first time on behalf of Chelsea, scored a goal from a corner kick opportunity, and was highly praised by manager Jose Mourinho after the game.
It is worth mentioning that before leaving Shanghai, Chelsea officials and Shanghai Dongya officials announced at the same time that hopeful star Wu Lei transferred to Chelsea for 3 million pounds.

Chelsea returned to London on the number 4 at a time when the European transfer market was still hot.
With Cristiano Ronaldo still at Manchester United, Ferguson persuaded the board to spend almost £50 million on the transfer market this summer.
15 million pounds to bring Ecuador international Valencia from Wigan Athletic, another 4 million pounds to buy Diouf, the biggest personnel addition is 25 million pounds to buy Yaya Toure from Barcelona, the most surprising is to spend 4 million pounds to buy Quaresma from Inter Milan, the former Sporting Lisbon double star reunited at Old Trafford!
On the day of Chelsea's return to London, United also returned to Manchester after a North American tour, and Ferguson announced the end of the team's summer recruitment in an interview with reporters.
The media was not surprised by Ferguson's result, with United having a well-established squad that now consolidates the two wide attacks as well as the hardness of the central defence and the ability to carry the ball forward.
Compared to Chelsea, from the perspective of the lineup, Chelsea is a bit of a disadvantage, Lampard is almost 32 years old this year, and Ballack is also 34 years old, Essien's form has fluctuated greatly, Mikel still needs to improve, only Modric plays more steadily, but he is relatively thin and prone to injury in the midfield confrontation......
Mourinho can see what the media can see, but he wants to see the cohesion of this team and how many players are still focused on the pitch after the team has won all competitions for two consecutive seasons......
The day after Jose Mourinho's return to the Cobham training base, Chelsea officially announced the last three signings of the summer, £5 million from ****** to bring in Motta, £18 million from Ajax to bring in Luez and £6 million from Inter Milan.
The English media was not surprised that Manchester United and Chelsea announced the end of their summer signings, but focused on Dubai's giants Manchester City, because no one knows what stars they will bring in next.
In the following period, the whole Chelsea team was mainly restored, the team's technical and tactical play has matured, and the personnel have not changed much, so they still play relatively well with each other.
Two days before the Community Shield tie against Manchester United, Chelsea played a warm-up match against local London semi-professional side Burton Albion at the Cobham training base to get their players to get their groove in front of the Community Shield, but the result was a 3-1 win over the opposition thanks to two late goals from Elo, which caused Mourinho to rage.
The dignified European hegemon Chelsea only won the semi-professional team Burton Albion by two goals, which is too difficult to accept!
