Winning the Super Cup is a great encouragement for the young Metz, not just an extra trophy in the honor room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But the lads at Metz didn't have time to rejoice for too long. In a week's time, the new season of Ligue 1 will kick off, and a new journey is about to start in front of them.

One of the immediate benefits of winning the French Super Cup is that the popularity of Metz has been further enhanced, and players who were hesitant to come before are now hesitant. Before the start of the league, Metz took out Mexico's international central defender Francisco. Javier. Rodriguez.

An important step in the upgrade of the backline has been completed.

On the same day, Metz also talked about Ahmed. Yayiovi's franchise agreement.

His arrival has strengthened Metz in the midfield position, but he still needs to continue to work on it. Fernandes advised Jayovi on his first day to report to the team that if he wanted to improve his level, he had to learn from Chu Zhongtian.

Jayovi had heard of Chu Zhongtian, but he was not impressed, he fought for his future in Ligue 2 last season, but it was fruitless...... He doesn't care much about Ligue 1 things. In fact, in the current Metz team, he has only one acquaintance, and that is Jeremy, who used to play with the French under-17 team. Menez. But in terms of talent and performance in the national youth team, he is not as good as Menez. He also made his debut in Marseille and is also a good friend of Nasri, and now Nasri is the pillar of Marseille, and he has been reduced to the point that no one wants to play in the second division, but fortunately he met Fernandes at this time.

So since it's Coach Fernandez's request, there's nothing wrong with that. He nodded in agreement.

Back in the dressing room, he was unfamiliar with the rest of the team, but he was able to talk to Menez, who enthusiastically briefed his former youth teammate about Metz. The two of them were in a corner of the locker room, head to head, and whispered "talking" about their teammates.

"That's Ribery...... He's the boss of the locker room, but I don't listen to him. Menez pointed at Ribery and said to Jamievi.

"I know he's the only France international, Metz...... 'I mean,' said Jamie in a low voice, for fear that Ribery would hear what they were talking about.

When it comes to international football, Menez has to pout: "I will also be an international player in the future!" ”

He didn't want to say anything more about Ribery, so he went on. He pointed to Chu Zhongtian, who was standing next to Ribery and was talking to Ribery: "This is Chu, he helped me when I first arrived at the team, and he is a very good person." ”

Yayiovi was only looking at Chu Zhongtian at this time, the black-haired and yellow-skinned player was different from the people around him, he was very conspicuous in the locker room, and he could be seen at a glance, it was said that he was a Chinese player. He's the core of Metz? The man who led Metz to League Cup glory? From the outside, it's ordinary...... He remembered what his previous coach Fernandes had asked of him, and told Menez about it.

Menez laughed after hearing this: "You are all backs, and you are an organizational back, you can indeed learn from Chu." And with him, it's easy for you to integrate into the team. ”

He also followed Chu Zhongtian to smoothly integrate into the team.

"Really?" Yayiovi knew almost zero about Chu Zhongtian, and he didn't quite understand why Menez admired this person so much.

'He's on good terms with Ribery, and Ribery is the boss in the dressing room, what do you say?" Menez asked rhetorically.

Jayovi understood.

"And he was nice and helpful. If you have any difficulties, he will help you. Remember the Bosnia-Herzegovina striker I introduced you earlier? ”

Menez was talking about Ibisevic, and Jayovi nodded.

"It's only the first day Ibi has been in the team, and Chu took him to rent a house for him. By the way, speaking of the house...... Menez suddenly remembered where Jayovi should not have settled now, and he asked, "Where do you live now?" ”

"The hotel, the club give money ......"

"Don't stay in a hotel." Menez is lukewarm to the rest of the Metz team, but he is still enthusiastic about the teammate who once played with him on the French National Day and lifted the European Youth Championship together.

He pulled Ya Ovi towards Chu Zhongtian and Ribery.

"The kid is coming." Ribery, who was chatting with Chu Zhongtian, saw two people walking towards them, so he whispered to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian turned around and looked at Menez and Yayiovi who were standing in front of him.

"Chu, this is Ahmed. Yayiovi is my former teammate in the national youth team. Menez introduced the two men.

"Ah, hello." Chu Zhongtian stretched out his hand to the other party.

"Hello, Chu." Yayiovi also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chu Zhongtian.

"I want your help with something." Menez continued.

"You say."

"Does Ibi still live there?" Menez asked.

Chu Zhongtian didn't know, he only asked Ibisevic, so he asked Ibisevic on the other side of the locker room loudly: "Hey, Ibie! ”

The Bosnian striker is listening to music with headphones on, a moment of relaxation before training. He didn't hear Chu Zhongtian's voice.

Ribery reached out and hooked a ball in the dressing room before kicking it softly, right in the hip of Ibisevic.

Ibisevic felt something concentrating on his ass, turned around, and just in time to see Chu Zhongtian hooking his hand at him. He took off his headphones: "You're looking for me, Chu?" ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded: "I want to ask, didn't you say two days ago that you planned to buy a house in Metz?" ”

He scored the winning goal in the Super Cup, helped the team win the Super Cup, lifted the Super Cup, and broke Lyon's four-season monopoly. After the game, Fernandez strongly supported Ibisevic, saying that he is an important part of his plans for the new season, and the coach's weight and the congratulations of his teammates have boosted Ibisevic's confidence. He is also not worried that he will be sold by the team this summer, so it is not convenient to rent a house all the time, and he also wants to buy a house in Metz, which is not as big as Chu Zhongtian and Ribery, but it is much more than the two-bedroom house he rents now.

"Yes, I've already found a house."

"That's fast." Chu Zhongtian exclaimed.

"I don't like to drag mud and water, hehe." Ibisevic walked up and scratched his head and smiled.

Chu Zhongtian introduced him to Yayiovi, and then introduced Yayiovi to Ibishevich. After the two of them said hello, they continued with the topic just now.

Ahmed is still staying in the hotel, and Jeremy wants to find him a place. You're a good place to live. I think if you move out, I'll go to the landlord and rent the house to Ahmed. ”

Chu Zhongtian briefly introduced the situation, and Ibisevic nodded again and again: "This is no problem, I will be able to move all the way the day after tomorrow." ”

After solving the problem of his own residence in a few words, Yayiovi saw Chu Zhongtian's status and energy in the team, and he felt that what Menez said was really right - following him, it would be smooth to integrate into the team. Because he is very popular, everyone has to sell him a little face.

"After the day after tomorrow training...... Well, the day after tomorrow is race day. You call me the day after the race, and I'll show you the house, and if you're satisfied, you'll be able to sign a contract and move in. Chu Zhongtian took out his mobile phone and left his number for Yayiovi.

After thanking Chu Zhongtian and Ibisevic, Jayovie returned to the corner with Menez, who continued to introduce him to the members of the team.

And the topic between Ribery and Chu Zhongtian has also changed from Emily's new film to Ya Ovi.

"That boy is so handsome...... Ribery pouted, "but I have a good impression of him, at least much better than when Menez came." ”

Chu Zhongtian also felt that Ya Yiovi was indeed very handsome, with long hair, a smile on his handsome and fair face, and he didn't look like a professional player, but like a sunny boy next door.

"He's not as crazy as Jeremy was when he first arrived, maybe it has something to do with his experience. It is said that he has not been able to play in the second division before. ”

Ribery thought of something: "He's also playing at the back. But looking at him like this, he doesn't look like a defensive and fierce midfielder......"

"Don't judge people by their looks, Frank. Don't forget that Rorick. Karna, he doesn't look like a killing machine. ”

Ribery shrugged: "I think he's definitely a playmaker and I'm wondering what the old man bought him for...... I guess he also thinks you've been in Metz for a short time, right? After speaking, he looked at Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian didn't answer. He thought about his future, and he didn't know how long he would be able to stay with this team. Maybe at the end of the season, he will leave with Ribery, and maybe he will stay for another season after Ribery's departure.

He looked at Yayiovi who was continuing to whisper with Menez, but his eyes were not focused, and he was distracted.

※※※During training, Fernandez called Yayiovi and Chu Zhongtian in front of him and asked him to help the new teammate in training.

"You're his teacher now." Fernandez's words took Chu Zhongtian by surprise. 'You train with him and if you go out to play, you live together. Give him your stuff as much as you can, Chu. ”

In this way, Menez followed in Ribery's footsteps...... To say goodbye to Chu Zhongtian, and Chu Zhongtian ushered in his new partner in training - Ahmed. Yayiovy.

When his teammates saw Fernandes call the new team mates Yayiovi and Chu Zhongtian together, the smart people had already guessed what would happen next.

Ribery whistled and said with a slight sneer at Menez, who was next to him, "Aha, you are scattered too...... However, he's so much more handsome than you! ”

Menez didn't care about Ribery's sarcasm, and he pouted and shot back, "I already knew." ”

Ribery was bored with himself and was silent.

※※※Chu Zhongtian nodded. Although he was a little surprised, he still chose to accept the manager's arrangement. Who told him to be Captain Three now? As a captain, it is also his job to take on some more responsibilities than ordinary players, educate new players, help them integrate into the team, and help them improve.

Besides, his first impression of Jayovi wasn't bad.

Fernandez was very satisfied with Chu Zhongtian's attitude, and he asked the two of them to go back and prepare to start warm-up training.

As soon as the two men walked back to the team, Fernandez announced the decision to adjust the training group and the accommodation between the outings.

"Chu and Yayiovi are in a group and also live in a room."

When he finished saying this, everyone's eyes turned to Chu Zhongtian and Ya Yi Ovi.

Yayovi could feel his teammates looking at him, and he thought it was strange - was it special to train with Chu?

Of course he didn't know, his teammates looked at the two of them and thought, "Poor Chu, it's about to become the manager's babysitter......"

After making the adjustments, Fernandes announced the content of the training session. Then he asked assistant coach David Brown. Carré led the team around in circles, and he and the other coaches began to set up the training ground with the props they would use for a while.

After that, starting from the warm-up, Yayiovi observed Chu Zhongtian very carefully. Since the head coach let him learn from him, then he should take a good look at what this person is capable of, and what he can learn from this person...... while Yayiovi is observing Chu Zhongtian, the French league has also kicked off.

On August 4, 2006, the 2006-07 season of the French French Football League was played at the home of Nantes. An opening match took place at the Stadelouis Fonteneau. Last season's league champions Lyon take on the home team Nantes.

In this game, like the last Super Cup, Lyon still has many main players who did not play, such as the main goalkeeper Kupe, the main defender Chris, the main midfielder Juninho, Wiltord, etc. It was Nantes who scored first, but despite this, Lyon showed their quality.

They seem to have taken out their anger at losing the Super Cup on poor Nantes.

After being scored by Nantes, they scored three goals in a row. The equaliser was scored by 19-year-old Karim Benzema, who showed it was his season with a beautiful volley.

Lyon started the campaign with a 3-1 win over Nantes.

Later that same day, Metz played Lens away and their 06-07 season began.

Ribery continued to be a substitute in this game because he has not been very fit since playing in the World Cup. During this time, I have been training in terms of physical fitness, and the tactical training is very good.

In order to be able to make Ribery play better in the future, Fernandes did not rush to let Ribery play. In place of Ribery in this game is still Obertan, who is 17 years younger and had a decent performance in the last Super Cup.

But in this game, the instability of young people was undoubtedly revealed in him, and his sharp breakthrough was completely invisible, and he could only lose the ball again and again.

Sixty minutes into the second half, Fernandes replaced him and brought on Ribery. As soon as Franck Ribery went up, the right flank of the team was immediately restored. Chu Zhongtian can pass the penetrating ball there again.

Jayovi was named in the squad but was not given a chance to play, and he sat on the bench to watch Chu Zhongtian play the whole game, while his team-mate Menez did well to score the first goal of the game.

Mexico international Rodriguez, who also joined the team, also did not play and watched the entire game from the bench.

Yayiovi found out from this game that Chu Zhongtian's physical fitness was excellent, but his own physical fitness was not weak. And Chu Zhongtian's most outstanding trait is that he has a strong understanding of the game, as a player who controls the offensive rhythm, he directs the whole team's offense and defense as if he is the conductor of an orchestra, and he is at ease. Chu Zhongtian's style of play is not elegant, and his technique is not delicate, but his control of the pace of the game is beyond the reach of Yayiovi.

The only downside is that he repeatedly held the ball for too long during the game and was cut off by his opponents.

But he didn't know that it was Chu Zhongtian testing the results of his technical training this summer in the middle of actual combat, and the result made him not very satisfied, it seemed that there was a long way to go to improve his skills...... Metz eventually relied on goals from Menez and Oblagnac to beat Lens 2-0 away. With their first win of the new season, they won the Super Cup five days ago and now they have won their first league game, which is a good sign.

The day after returning to Metz with the team, the team was on vacation, and Chu Zhongtian kept his promise and called Yayiovi to take him to see the house.

Jayovi was quite satisfied with the environment, and he was not a very demanding person, so he signed a rental contract with the landlord on the spot and lived here.

And I heard that Chu Zhongtian was back, and the old man who lived downstairs, Le Goff, had to invite Chu Zhongtian to a meal no matter what. As a result, after Ibisevic, Yaiove was introduced to Le Goff by Chu Zhongtian, and the former Marseille player also saw Chu Zhongtian's status in the hearts of fans...... His understanding of Chu Zhongtian was gradually deepening.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian is like a fish in water in Metz, and he did not show his performance in the club team in two games in the national team, which also made the Chinese media feel regretful. Some people criticized Zhu Suishen for not giving Chu Zhongtian enough opportunities and status, while others thought that Chu Zhongtian was not suitable for it, and it would naturally be fine after a long time.

On August 10, the Chinese team had a warm-up match with Thailand, and Zhu Suishen issued a convening order to Chu Zhongtian, but was stopped by the Metz club, who did not let Chu Zhongtian return to China on the grounds that this was not an important international A-level event such as a qualifier.

After all, the French league has begun, and the team will face Le Mans at home on the 12th, Chu Zhongtian is the absolute core of the team, and if he leaves Metz, it is equivalent to the collapse of half of the team, and there is a reason why Metz does not let go.

As a result, this matter also brought a little trouble to Chu Zhongtian, I don't know why, there are rumors that Chu Zhongtian played a big name and was unwilling to return to China to compete, and there was no country in his heart that he only knew how to make money.

Xu Xiaodi called him to ask what was going on, only to find out that this rumor was spreading in China, and hurriedly found a Chinese reporter to clarify the matter after the training, saying that he was absolutely not without a country, and it was even more inexplicable to play a big name - "I am a newcomer who has just played two games for the national team, and I don't even add up to 90 minutes, how can I be qualified to play?" I really didn't know there was such a calling, I only knew it after you told me...... I thought that if I fought an opponent like Thailand, Director Zhu could solve it by finding someone at will......"

Here he unconsciously made Zhu Suishen and those who wore his own rumors uncomfortable.

"Of course I want to play for my country and I don't have a problem with my physical strength, but Mr. Fernandez has his own considerations and if he doesn't agree with me leaving, then I can't do anything. However, I believe that the Chinese team can play at least 4:0 against a player like Thailand, and it will not be a problem to win. I'm here in Metz to cheer for the national team......"

Chu Zhongtian's sincere attitude, coupled with Xu Xiaodi's help in the media circle, this rumor storm quickly disappeared into invisibility, no one mentioned it again, and Chu Zhongtian did not return to Chengguo. And coincidentally, the Chinese team really beat the Thai team 4:0 in the end...... Xu Xiaodi called Chu Zhongtian and summed up the lessons of this incident with him, and came to the conclusion: "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and as you become more and more famous, it is estimated that there will be a lot of similar troubles." Some people in China praise you, and naturally some people belittle you. It is impossible to want only good things and no bad things. So there's no need to be angry about this kind of thing. ”

Chu Zhongtian smiled on the other end of the phone: "I'm not angry, I just think this thing is funny." ”

Someone has finally put his black hand on his head, let's ride a donkey and read the script - we'll see!
