readx;

When he came to the training ground, he saw Xavi on the sidelines talking to Mourinho. Alonso. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

He was a little pleased.

"Harvey!" He screamed.

Alonso heard the shout, turned his head and saw that it was Chu Zhongtian, and also smiled and beckoned to him.

Chu Zhongtian walked up and patted him on the shoulder: "How are you recovering from your injuries?" ”

Alonso laughed: "I'm talking to the manager about it. ”

Chu Zhongtian said hello to Mourinho.

'Xavi should be able to make it to the Champions League final. Mourinho said to Chu Zhongtian.

"That's good news!" Chu Zhongtian slapped his face.

Harvey. Alonso was injured in the 33rd round of the league away to Hercules, when the result of the examination was a torn cruciate ligament and he directly missed all the remaining games. But Alonso's recovery from his injury has been better than everyone expected. Yesterday he was examined by the team doctors, who believe that if all goes well, Alonso will be in time for the Champions League final in a week's time.

If Alonso can really play in the final, it will obviously be a big reinforcement for Real Madrid.

He and Chu Zhongtian's midfield partner, after a season of running-in, has been very tacit. With him, Chu Zhongtian will be liberated, and Real Madrid will return to a dual-core state.

It's a powerful weapon against Barcelona.

Although Real Madrid beat Barcelona away in the league national derby, Mourinho knew that victory was a fluke - and if it weren't for Chu Zhongtian's sudden explosion in the second half, the initiative of the game might have been taken away by Barcelona.

If there is Alonso, Real Madrid's midfield will be able to completely compete with Barcelona, Barcelona has Xavi, Iniesta, and Butzques in the midfield, and Real Madrid's midfield also has Chu Zhongtian, Alonso, Kaka, and Ozil.

Alonso's position and role are subtle.

When he's on the pitch, people don't usually notice what role he's playing, he seems to be a dispensable person. In terms of direct assists and goals, he is not as good as his midfield partner Chu Zhongtian, and he doesn't often do things like being in the limelight.

But Chu Zhongtian knew very well how powerful this person beside him was. With him and without him, those are two completely different feelings.

This feeling is not visible to ordinary people.

In the games that Alonso was absent, Chu Zhongtian partnered with Khedira. Khedira is a very good defensive midfielder, but he can only share the defensive burden for Chu Zhongtian, and there is very little support for Chu Zhongtian in attack.

If Alonso is there, he can not only share Chu Zhongtian's tasks in defense, but also support Chu Zhongtian in attack, making him feel like a fish in water.

Because Alonso is also an offensive playmaker, he and Chu Zhongtian have the same ideas on the field, and he doesn't need Chu Zhongtian to say anything, he knows how to cooperate with Chu Zhongtian, which greatly increases the fluency of the midfield.

If Alonso does make a comeback in the Champions League final, then Real Madrid's hopes of beating Barcelona are one more point higher.

The three people present were well aware of this, so they all had smiles on their faces.

Alonso didn't end up training with the team, but he returned to the gym for his recovery.

However, everyone knew that Alonso was hopeful of returning before the Champions League final, and the news made everyone happy. Alonso is an important member of the squad and a leader in the dressing room.

Many thought they had a much better chance of beating Barcelona and lifting their tenth European Cup.

Of course, such good news cannot be hidden from reporters. Madrid journalists, who have good ties within the Real Madrid club, were quick to learn of the news from their respective sources. Some people are from the middle and senior levels of the club, some are from the players or members of the coaching staff, and some people have a relatively shallow relationship, so they can only come from the club's cleaners and turf care workers...... This kind of staff heard there.

But strictly speaking, these are just "rumors". The news of Alonso's expected return has not been officially confirmed by the team.

So the media can only use a speculative tone when reporting the news.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ This morning, news came from within the Real Madrid club that Xavi was born from within the club. Alonso could hopefully be back before the Champions League final......"

"Harvey. Alonso's injury was originally very serious, making everyone think that he was out of action for the rest of the season, but now there is good news from the Real Madrid team. Alonso will most likely return in the Champions League final against Barcelona! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I believe this is definitely bad news for Pep Guardiola. Originally, they had a headache to deal with one Chu, but now they have to deal with one Alonso, and the combined effect of these two people is definitely not as simple as one plus one......"

Of course, the Catalan media has a different interpretation.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ We can't rule out that it was a smokescreen by Jose Mourinho before the Champions League final – he is very good at doing it. Alonso was previously diagnosed with a torn cruciate ligament, and it is absolutely impossible for such an injury to fully recover in nearly two months, even if there is a miracle! ”

"The Madrid media said that Alonso is back from injury, so he really came back from injury? Can we also announce that Cruyff is back in action for Barcelona to win a fifth European Cup......

"Mourinho's psychological warfare is very mature, so we have to think first of all if this is a new kind of psychological warfare. To put that other way...... Actually, I don't think it's a big deal, even if Harvey. Alonso can come back, his form is not guaranteed, if I were Mourinho, I would not choose to let him play, he may not be able to help the team, and there is a great possibility that the whole team will be dragged down and become the weakest link of the team! ”

In fact, Pep Guardiola didn't think Alonso's comeback was a big deal.

Even if Alonso returns, he has just returned from injury and has not played in two months, how much game form is left?

The Champions League final is not a league and you can play game by game, five, ten, fifteen, twenty minutes...... In this way, you can slowly find the state. The Champions League final is a winner-or-lose game, a hammer deal, okay, no, no. If the starters are in good shape, it's okay, in fact, ten of them are in no state, not only will not make the team play better, but will limit the team and make the team at a loss.

Pep Guardiola didn't take Alonso to heart at all, he thought that the way to deal with Real Madrid was very simple - to curb Chu Zhongtian's play, if Chu Zhongtian couldn't play, it would be no different to deal with Real Madrid as it was a season ago. C. Ronaldo is also completely fearless. Because he is the kind of player who needs the whole team to support him alone, he can play his level, although he is also good at dribbling, very versatile, can dribble, can pass and shoot, but detached from the whole, what is the use of him being omnipotent alone?

Chu Zhongtian is completely different, this person's all-round ability is all-round in another sense - he can shoot and score by himself, and he can also help his teammates shoot and score. He can organize his own team's attack, and he can also stop the opponent's attack. He can not only be a hero alone from the whole, but also be able to hide himself and make the whole stronger...... Players like that are the real threat.

How to contain Chu Zhongtian will be the subject that Guardiola will study in the next week and a half.

If Chu Zhongtian knew that Guardiola valued him so much, I don't know if he should feel honored...... even the Madrid media have little interest in following up on the news of Alonso's possible comeback. After all, this is just an episode, in fact, everyone knows that if Alonso can make a comeback, it will be good news at best, but it will not play a decisive role. The person who can play a decisive role is Chu Zhongtian. If Chu Zhongtian is injured in training and may miss the Champions League final, it will immediately become the front page headlines of various media.

From this point, it can be seen that Chu Zhongtian's status in the team is now.

When Chu Zhongtian was in Metz, he had the experience of being injured before the League Cup final. It was a thigh muscle strain, which also attracted a lot of media attention at the time. However, Chu Zhongtian was not affected by the injury, still insisted on starting the game, and led the team to defeat Sevilla in extra time in the final, leading Metz to the first European championship in the club's history.

But this history doesn't tell the whole story.

Chu Zhongtian's physical condition is now at its peak, he can feel it himself, after training, some teammates feel very tired, but he is as comfortable as if he has just taken a massage, and he even wants to continue training.

At the age of twenty-eight, he was in the prime of his professional career – full of energy, quick thinking, quick movements, and strong physically. And his good habits and professional attitude towards football allow him to maintain the state of this golden age for a little longer.

And even if his physical fitness declines in the future, his awareness and skill are still there, and he can still transform into a pure playmaking midfielder, and he can still play a vital role.

Such a person is like a bug.

Such a bug is Mourinho's biggest reliance.

β€»β€»β€» This side, Real Madrid's Champions League final preparations are in full swing, and in Chu Zhongtian's motherland China, the attention and expectations for this game are also increasing day by day.

Although there are no institutions or individuals in China who have counted how many football fans there are in China, in 2007 FIFA announced the number of football players in each country, and this football population includes not only the players who play football, but also the vast number of fans.

At that time, the number was 26,166,335, the highest in the world.

For well-known reasons, there aren't many actually registered football players in China, so this number can be seen as the number of Chinese fans.

With 26 million fans, it is said that there are 20 million Go fans in China, not to mention table tennis, which is known as the national sport, and badminton, which is also very popular, and the supporters of both sports love more than 100 million people.

But to say that the Chinese who are paying attention to this Champions League final are definitely more than 20 million.

Football fans will of course be watching the Champions League final, but there will also be many people who don't usually watch football games, but pay attention to their compatriots. Just like the live broadcast of Li Na's French Open victory, it is said that the CCTV sports channel alone has more than 60 million viewers.

This data is very scary.

Of course, since the Champions League final was played in the early hours of the morning, the ratings were not as good as Li Na's French Open final. But 30 million believe that it should be possible.

As a rough estimate, about 30 million people will tune in to watch the Champions League final on CCTV's sports channel.

On the Internet, there are countless people who follow this game. Every day there is news about the final, and every day new people join the crowd to discuss the game.

Everyone is hotly discussing the Champions League final that is getting closer and closer, predicting, or looking forward to what kind of performance Chu Zhongtian will have in the Champions League final.

All kinds of celebrities are vying to predict the score, or predict Chu Zhongtian's performance.

Of course, there are also people who obviously know that they are newcomers at a glance to join in to express their opinions, although they try to pretend that they are veterans, but a single mouth reveals their true identity as rookie newcomers...... "Everyone is looking forward to this game so warmly, but I think it's better not to put too much pressure on Chu Zhongtian." After all, the expectations of so many people could completely ruin him, and if he played abnormally in the game, who would bear the responsibility? So everyone should be calm, don't pay too much attention, and don't impose your will on Chu Zhongtian......"

As soon as these words came out, the old people laughed.

If it was said four years ago, there was still quite a market for this, but after so many seasons, everyone found that Chu Zhongtian's ability to resist pressure was amazing. No matter how high the expectations were for him, no matter how much pressure the game was, he never let everyone down. And the more crucial the game, the more people follow, the better his performance.

It's like ...... "people are crazy"!

Anyway, everyone can now put their longing and expectations for football on Chu Zhongtian's shoulders, and he is like a vast and boundless land, absolutely able to bear it.

β€»β€»β€»Chu Zhongtian is very busy now, and he no longer has as much time to surf the Internet as he did when he played for Mace. In addition to training, he now has to spend more time dealing with company affairs - many times everyone only knows that Chu Zhongtian is a football player who plays for Real Madrid, but ignores that he has another identity, that is, a billion-dollar businessman...... So he may only have one day a week to entertain himself online, go to his official website to communicate with Chu fans all over the world, and then go to Twitter and Sina Weibo to post a few Weibo posts to see everyone's comments. If you're in a good mood, you'll reply to a few or something.

The consultation on the Internet is updated quickly, but Chu Zhongtian can still know the movements on the Internet after browsing it. Regarding the Champions League final, he has already received greetings and encouragement from Chinese fans on Weibo.

He couldn't respond to those enthusiastic fans one by one, so he reposted a Weibo to thank everyone. The result was undoubtedly an instant retweet and a large number of enthusiastic and surprising messages.

Many people were very surprised that he was able to communicate with everyone on the Internet in addition to such intense training. There are also people who care about telling him to rest early and not stay up late - these people must have forgotten about the "jet lag" thing.

The reason why Chu Zhongtian never regarded the fans' expectations of him as a burden was because he liked this kind of harmonious relationship very much. Soccer players are born to satisfy their fans, so what's the point of a player who can't satisfy his supporters? Look in the stands at the Bernabeu, look at the stands at the Rheinneckar Arena...... Looking at the fans who support him, how can he take it as negative pressure?

It should be regarded as motivation, and it is the support of these people that is the reason why he runs desperately on the pitch and pursues victory.

He still remembers how much he wanted the players and teams he supported to win when he was a fan, and when they failed, he was more miserable than the players. It is precisely because he knows how much damage defeat can cause to the fans, so after he became a player, he strives to make himself not fail again, and strive to make his supporters happy and proud of him.

He's going to be a winner, he's going to be a winner.

Looking at the time, Chu Zhongtian issued today's last meager message: "Thirty-day competition, witness with me!" ”

He didn't say what he testified, but everyone knew what he meant.

β€»β€»β€»After a week of intensive training in Madrid, Real Madrid boarded a plane to Munich, Germany, and headed to the final venue.

There they will train for another three days before going head-to-head against Barcelona at the Allianz Arena.

This glorious season is about to usher in the culmination of honors, and it is also a real end.

When Chu Zhongtian appeared at the exit of Munich International Airport with the team, he was somewhat surprised to see a touch of blue in the crowd - a group of fans wearing Hoffenheim jerseys were holding up posters of Chu Zhongtian when he played for Hoffenheim and waving to him!

"Chu!!"

"Welcome back to Germany, Chu!"

They waved their arms and cheered.

Unlike the Real Madrid fans in white jerseys at the airport, these blue Hoffenheim fans are not here to welcome the Real Madrid team, they are only here to welcome their old friend Chu Zhongtian!
