Chapter 505: Memories and Expectations
readx;
In the first two days of the game, Carlo allowed the players who participated in the Spanish derby to continue to recuperate, while the focus of training was to have the team play an intra-squad match, mainly to allow the Real Madrid players to readjust to the Premier League side.

In training, Wang Li's condition is still steady, and his continuous scoring helps his team win the match, which makes Carlo in a much better mood.
Now the core of Real Madrid is undoubtedly Wang Li, after the Spanish derby, Wang Li has conquered all the fans and teammates with his performance, in the team, his important surname is undoubted.
As long as Wang Li is in good shape, then Carlo has the confidence to win the game.
In Carlo's mind, this brunette is the perfect existence - serious in training, doing his best in competitions, working hard for victory, and having the world's top skills and strength.
Perhaps, what he is not satisfied with is that Wang Li is not very low-key off the court, it should be said that he is not a hit, and he is a blockbuster: he rarely gives interviews to reporters, but every interview can cause strong controversy in the Spanish media.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the big picture.
For Wang Li's 'small' shortcomings, Carlo can only turn a blind eye. But in fact, his status in the team is lower than Wang Li, although he is the head coach, his voice is definitely less than Wang Li
A day later, the transfer of the Real Madrid superstars arrived at London International Airport, and they were greeted by a variety of flashing lights, and when the plane landed at the airport, there were already many journalists from all over the world waiting at the airport for a long time.
They all want to be the first to know the news.
Perhaps, this game has not received so much attention before, because the other confrontation in the Champions League can also attract the attention of many media and fans, but since Real Madrid's 8-0 victory over Barcelona a few days ago, many fans feel that Real Madrid is the strongest team, and they will of course turn their attention to it.
"There will be a new era of Real Madrid in European football." That's the opinion of a lot of fans.
So, this game has added more attention.
This is the second time Real Madrid have come to London this season, having just beaten Arsenal here last month and now they are set to play Chelsea, and the Spanish media are certainly hoping that Real Madrid can still win, and if they win against two top teams in the Premier League, wouldn't it prove that La Liga is stronger than the Premier League?
In the current Premier League, the teams with representative surnames are Chelsea and Arsenal, as for Manchester United? That team was eliminated right there and is now only third in the Premier League, and has been forgotten by the world media.
Successive victories over the first and second Premier League teams have made the hearts of the Spanish media heat up. They came up to interview the Real Madrid players and asked them about their current form, the state of the team and so on.
Look, they're like a babysitter.
But Real Madrid players are not in the mood to be interviewed, even Wang Li is the same, there is a big game tomorrow, before the big game, what they need to do is to recuperate.
So, the team didn't stop at the airport, and took the bus directly to the hotel where they stayed
By the next day, Stamford Bridge was surrounded by fans, there were many patrols on the surrounding roads, security had been strengthened, and the atmosphere of the tournament was getting stronger.
By noon, Real Madrid's buses had pulled into Stamford Bridge.
This is the first time Wang Li has returned to Stamford Bridge since leaving Chelsea, and after entering the pitch, he did not immediately follow his teammates to participate in the training of adaptation to the field, but spun around the pitch alone.
Here, there are many memories of him.
Although it is a thing of the past, Wang Li still has a sense of intimacy with this place, and the surrounding player tunnels, pictures of superstars, and the familiar layout of the stadium can remind him of many things.
On the outside of the players' tunnel, Wang Li found a photo of himself.
In fact, when he left Chelsea, the club had hung his picture here.
The players here are all stars who have contributed greatly to Chelsea Football Club, and it is clear that Wang Li helped Chelsea achieve the quadruple last season, which is much more than most players, and he is qualified to hang the photo here for Chelsea fans to remember.
Looking at his photos, Wang Li was also a little satisfied, these are his achievements.
After staying here for a while, Wang Li walked around Stamford Bridge again, and he was ready to go to the pitch to participate in the pre-match training, in fact, this training did not help him at all, not to mention his form, he was very familiar with the Stamford Bridge pitch, and he did not have to adapt to the field at all.
However, after turning a corner, Wang Li encountered a not very pleasant thing - Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho appeared in front of him, at this time, Mourinho was walking in his direction, the two walked face to face, and both involuntarily stopped.
After standing still, neither of them said anything, they just looked at each other, as if they were trying to see whose eyes were more lethal, and after a period of time, Wang Li was defeated, and he felt that this was a waste of time.
Wang Li nodded towards Mourinho and said in greeting: "Boss! 'You're not a Chelsea player now.' Mourinho replied with a twisted face.
Hearing this, Wang Li waved his hand indifferently and said, "Okay, sir, is this okay?" ”
Mourinho nodded, walked over to Wang Li, and asked, "Why didn't you go to training?" ”
"I want to walk around the pitch."
Mourinho's face darkened and he said: "Participating in training with the team is the work ethic of a professional footballer, and it is an obligation that must be fulfilled, you take a salary, but you don't participate in training!?" ”
"You're still so lazy, you used to be."
Wang Li frowned and said, "But it's none of your business." ”
"Humph! I'm just stating the facts. ”
"I think you should think more about how to win the game than about that. You know, today you're going to lose, Chelsea will be eliminated and Real Madrid will be in the last four."
Hearing this, Mourinho's face was so dark that he almost dripped water, he walked directly past Wang Li's side, turned around and said: "It's impossible, you're dreaming!" ”
Wang Li waved his hand indifferently and said, "See you on the court, I will let you recognize the facts." ”
After saying that, he didn't pay any attention to Mourinho and walked straight forward.
And Mourinho behind him was not directly angry, looking at Wang Li's back, he showed a look of memory, when Wang Li had turned another corner, he whispered to himself: "It's still so rude." ”
After the episode with Mourinho, Wang Li went to the field to train with his teammates.
At this time, the fans also began to enter the stadium, and the Blues fans who had just entered the stadium all looked at Wang Li, and at the beginning, these fans were just staring at Wang Li, and each of them was reminiscing about last season, when this black-haired boy led the team to victory over opponents.
But now things are different, this brunette boy already belongs to Real Madrid, and has become an opponent of Chelsea.
However, that doesn't overshadow Wangli's place among Blues fans, who was one of Chelsea's biggest contributors to last season's quadruple victory. When the fans found their positions, there were scattered cries in the stadium: "Alan! Allan! ”
At first, few people responded, but after a while, the crowd was full of fans and louder voices, and even though they were now rivals, they would not forget the laughter and honour that Wang Li brought to Chelsea.
"Alan, you're really welcome."
Seeing this scene, Ronaldo, who was not in good shape but was still included in the squad by Caro, could not hear a trace of sourness and jealousy in his words.
During Ronaldo's career, he landed in the top five leagues from PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie, joining Barcelona. A year later, he moved to Inter Milan, where he was successful, and in 2002, he moved to Real Madrid.
Speaking of which, his career has little to do with Barcelona, but every Spanish derby, Barcelona fans will still spurn him as a traitor, not to mention the former Barcelona captain Luiz. Figo too.
Now, with Wang Li at Stamford Bridge, he may be in a worse position than the two, but the fans cheered him on, and Wang's reputation is evident here, and despite his move, he is still loved by the Blues fans.
Even the Chelsea players on the opposite pitch didn't get more cheers than he received right now.
If that were the case, it might have been Wangley's home game, but that's obviously unlikely, the game hasn't started yet, it's normal for the fans to cheer, and if it does, the Blues fans will definitely be rooting for Chelsea.
Seeing this scene, Wang Li also felt slightly in his heart, speaking of which, his biggest reluctance to leave Chelsea was these lovely Blues fans, and now that he has left, the fans are still very supportive of him.
"Then I'll repay the Blues fans with my performance." Wang Li waved to the fans, thinking.
If the Blues fans present knew what Wang Li was thinking at this time, I am afraid that this cheer would immediately stop abruptly!! Their cheers were for Wang Li's performance last season, but it had nothing to do with this game
Real Madrid were very low-key ahead of the game, as was Jose Mourinho, which could be bad news for the media who came to Stamford Bridge because they struggled to get any big news.
However, with the lessons learned, reporters are looking forward to the pre-race press conference. Unfortunately, at the beginning of the press conference, when Carlo walked into the hall alone, the media was completely disappointed, and they couldn't help but look at each other and salute Carlo in unison, but the meaning of their eyes was not very friendly.
Seeing this, Carlo Leng was so stunned that he even felt that there was something wrong with his dress, but when he saw the dissatisfaction in the eyes of the media, he understood everything.
In the past, Carlo wanted Wang Li to attend the press conference with him, but Wang Li is in no mood to fight with the media now, he is meditating in the dressing room to adjust his physical condition, and wants to 'repay' the Blues fans by working this memorable stadium.
So, he refused. But fortunately, Mourinho helped him out of trouble, because he brought the person the media wanted to interview - Michael. Irving!!
Owen was tackled by an opposition defender in a league game last month and was still back in form at the end of March, so he didn't play in the last Chelsea and Real Madrid meeting, and now that he is behind Jose Mourinho, the meaning of this is simple.
Owen has also been in an inconsistent position at Chelsea in the league this season, with his biggest rival being Didier. Drogba.
In the first half of the season, Owen also performed well, scoring nine goals and providing seven assists in 17 league games, which is why Mourinho trusts Owen.
Compared to La Liga, Owen is indeed more comfortable with the Premier League.
'Michael is very strong and has been doing well in training over the past few days and he deserves to be in the starting line-up for this game. In the face of an interview with reporters, Mourinho explained.
After that, the press conference became 'Owen time', and there was so little that reporters wanted to know about the managers of both teams, the most important being that before the game, the low-key Carlo and Mourinho would certainly speak some official language, which they were not interested in.
"The game was simple, we just had to try to win, there was no other way to go. I'm ready and I hope I can score today and I'll do my best! ”
This is Michael. Owen opened his words, when the reporter asked what he thought of Wang Li, Owen smiled and said: "In private, he is my friend, and we often talk on the phone. But now we're opponents and I want to be on the pitch and try to help the team win, that's it, as for Allen!? He's very strong, he scored five goals in the Spanish derby a few days ago and I admire him and I'm looking forward to playing with him. ”
In fact, Owen knows Wang Li's quality very well, he knows that he is by no means an opponent, and Chelsea have little chance of this game.
First of all, the team played a 3:1 away game, itself two goals behind Real Madrid, and Real Madrid just beat Barcelona, the team's morale is high, although half of their main team is absent, but it is not easy to win such a Real Madrid. However, he is really looking forward to playing against Wang Li, who has not played against Wang Li since the European Championship the year before.
Of course, for the game, Owen must hope that Chelsea will win, although he admits in his heart that he is not Wang Li's opponent, but football is an eleven-man sport, although the chances are small, he feels that Chelsea can still win.
For that hope, he will also have to work hard to score goals and add to the stakes for his team's victory
