Chapter 63: Are You a Fool to Me?

With two golden goals, Zhang Xu was once again voted the best player of the game and received champagne for Sheffield United's second best player. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Receiving the champagne from the hands of the committee officials, Zhang Xu was still very happy, although it was not the first time, and it would have been perfect if it had not been for the Sheffield Wednesday fans singing and booing in the stands.

Next, various media began to rush for interviews.

This time, when he was interviewed, Zhang Xu seemed much smarter, and he was sloppy to those media reporters who liked to make things difficult, and he answered seriously to media reporters with a more friendly attitude.

Zhang Xu, who was fooled, finally entered the locker room and drank champagne with his teammates to celebrate the victory, but before the celebration was over, assistant coach Evan came to the locker room and informed Zhang Xu to attend the post-game press conference with head coach Wilson.

Zhang Xu took a moment, although he knew that Wilson had regarded himself as the main player after completing the main task of the system, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to accompany the head coach to be interviewed by reporters today.

Fortunately, this is not the first time he has been interviewed by reporters with the manager, and he has also experienced it when he was at Belgian White Star Club, especially after being captain on the field, he often attended press conferences.

So, this time he didn't care very much, after apologizing to his teammates, he quickly rinsed up, changed his clothes, and followed Evan to the scene of the press conference.

When he came to the conference room, the head coaches and player representatives of both sides had already taken their seats, Zhang Xu apologized embarrassedly, and quickly sat down next to Wilson.

After Zhang Xu took his seat, the press conference officially began.

After the head coaches of both sides exchanged polite exchanges, they entered the stage of free questions from reporters.

"Hello Mr Zhang, I'm Mars, a reporter for Sheffield Sports Alert, and first of all congratulations on scoring a brace in this game and being the best player of the game. I have a question here, could you please explain, we saw that you made a move to the Sheffield Wednesday fans before the game and after you scored a goal, can you ask what that action means? ”

Zhang Xu didn't expect the reporter's first question to shoot at himself, and pointed to his provocative actions at the moment of the game, if he admitted the fact of provocation, then he was likely to be punished by the FA. Although this punishment will not make you suspended, it is a penalty of pounds.

So it's a question that can't even be acknowledged.

Zhang Xu frowned, and smiled at Mars: "Many people think this is a provocative move, but in fact, I am saying to the fans of Sheffield Wednesday: You are good, you will win!" As he spoke, he deliberately gestured to the first action, which really looked like that.

Then he went on to explain: "The second action is more friendly, I'm saying to them: It's only one goal behind, don't be afraid, come on!" So much for! ”

Hearing Zhang Xu's nonsensical explanation, Mars was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, are you playing with me? Are you a fool of me? But he can't stand up in front of so many people and scold directly, and Zhang Xu's explanation makes sense in theory.

In the end, Mars could only sit down depressedly.

The first one hit a wall, and other reporters understood that it seemed impossible to pry valuable news out of Zhang Xu's mouth. So, they turned around and started asking questions of the others.

Zhang Xu was happy, holding his hands with a smile on his face and watching the excitement.

Although there were still reporters asking him questions later, after Zhang Xu said a few words that were not nutritious, these reporters also wilted.

The press conference ended quickly, and on the way back, head coach Wilson smiled and said to Zhang Xu: "Zhang, your explanation is really ...... It's so amazing, if it weren't for the press conference, I'd have laughed out loud! ”

"Hehe, didn't I learn from you?"

"! I didn't teach you this! ”......

After this local derby with Sheffield Wednesday, Sheffield United are about to enter an intensive period of league action. Let's take a look at the schedule: home to Scunthorpe on 1 March, home to Oldham on 3 March, away to Walsall on 7 March, away to Brentford on 10 March, away to Gilchestet on 14 March, home to Trenmere on 17 March, away to Knorth County on 21 March and Chesterfield on 24 March!

Eight consecutive league rounds, one game after another, with each game only three or four days apart, and some even only two days apart, such a dense competition is indeed a severe test for Sheffield United.

That's when Sheffield United's bench depth is really tested!

Head coach Wilson looked at the schedule with a depressed face. 4 of the 8 games are away, and 3 of them are still back-to-back! This was a particular headache for Wilson.

How should I line up? Wilson looked at the list of players in his hand, and he was even more entangled, in this long list, I am afraid that only Zhang Xu is untouchable.

If only everyone had Zhang Xu's physical fitness! Wilson can only think about this, not every player is like Zhang Xu, not every player can be like a monster, and he can recover all his physical strength in one night.

These 8 league games are too crucial for Sheffield United, if they go through, promotion to the Champions League is basically a sure thing, if they can't get through, they are likely to be caught up by the teams behind.

And when Wilson was entangled, Zhang Xu was very happy, because for 8 consecutive games, how much experience should this have? How many attribute points should be randomly rewarded by the system?

The reality is so beautiful that Zhang Xu can't bear to look at it!

As a result, the league passed little by little in Wilson's entanglement and Zhang Xu's happiness.

On March 1, at home against Scunthorpe, Sheffield United won 2-1, Zhang Xu contributed an assist again, but the team's No. 4 Nicky suffered a thigh muscle strain and needed to recuperate for half a month!

On March 3, at home to Alderham, Sheffield United was forced to draw 0:0 by Alderham, except for Zhang Xu, the rest of the team was obviously tired. Fortunately, Zhang Xu was there in the defense, so he didn't lose the ball, but the offense was completely incomprehensible, and in the end he could only shake hands and make peace. And the team's No. 6 Johannes injured his toe in this game and had to recuperate for another half a month.

On 7 March, Wilson had to rotate a few players and bring on two young players, and the result was another disappointment for Wilson in the game. 1:1! It was another draw, and it was Zhang Xu who scored the only goal for the team to equalize at the end of the game!

Sheffield United won 3-0 away at Brentford on 10 March, thanks to the fact that the main players had been given enough rest in the previous rounds of rotation and everyone was in good shape. Zhang Xu scored a goal and an assist!

At the same time, the No. 36 youngster John made his first appearance for the team and his performance was average.

On March 14, Wilson rotated again against Gilchet, and he rotated six players in one go, but Zhang Xu performed well in this game, and a long-range shot penetrated the opponent's door, which allowed the team to gain valuable three points 1:0.

Wilson followed the same line-up from the previous round at home to Trenmere on 17 March, but the substitute failed to repeat the legend as the two sides drew 1-1 and Sheffield United missed three points.

Away to Northshire on 21 March, Wilson learned the lessons of the previous round and played at home to win the game 4-1. Zhang Xu scored a goal!

On March 24, at home against Chesterfield, Zhang Xu broke out and achieved his first hat trick in League One! Sheffield United also won 4:1!

At this point, the eight rounds of the league are finally over.

Sheffield United have won five and drawn three, picked up 18 league points, and are currently second in second place with a total of 80 points, while Charlton Athletic is in first place with 82 points. Third place went to Sheffield Wednesday with 74 points.

Overall, Sheffield United have performed better overall in these eight league games, continuing to maintain the pressure on Charlton Athletic at the top of the table, while also maintaining a six-point gap to third place.

With only 7 rounds left in the league, such a situation is still more favorable for Sheffield United. As long as there are no low-level mistakes, promotion to the Champions League is basically guaranteed.

The team's harvest is good, and Zhang Xu's harvest is also quite good.

In eight rounds, almost every three games, Zhang Xu can get experience points for promotion, and after defeating Chesterfield 4:1 at home on March 24, Zhang Xu has been promoted four levels in a row, becoming the current level 31!

After reaching level 30, the task system is automatically upgraded to version 3.0, the number of side quests and experience points are greatly increased, and the experience rewards and number of daily tasks are also doubled, so that Zhang Xu's upgrade becomes easier.

Upgrading to three levels in a row gave him 15 free attribute points, and after the last time he stacked long-range attribute points to win and score goals, he no longer allocated free attribute points as soon as he leveled up, but kept them in case he needed them.

At the same time, the system also randomly rewards a lot of attribute points, for example, the shot increases the attribute value by 3 points, which is rewarded by the system when he gets a hat trick; Steals increased by 2 and vision increased by 2...... Wait a minute.

Zhang Xu made a preliminary count that in these eight games, the system rewarded 14 attribute points, which was basically the same as the free attribute points obtained by upgrading to three levels in a row.

Now, Zhang Xu's current ability has reached 60 points, which shows that Zhang Xu has fully reached the level of a Championship player!

There are still seven games left in the league, and at this growth rate, in more than a month, Zhang Xu can be promoted to another three levels, and his ability is close to 65 points!

If the overall ability level reaches 65 points, coupled with his perverted physical fitness, Zhang Xu can gain a foothold in some small clubs in the top league!
