Chen Xi has long been accustomed to the crazy hype of the media. However, he can also somewhat foresee that this summer, once he does not renew his contract with Tottenham, many giants will send him an invitation, and he must be in a sweet trouble.

After the first leg of the UEFA Cup against Lazio, Tottenham will face the FA Cup semi-finals in midweek.

Two of the FA Cup semi-finals are from League One (later the Championship), and I really don't know whether to say that the Premier League teams are weak or the League One teams are too strong.

The two Premier League sides were Tottenham Hotspur and their local rivals Arsenal, who were drawn against Watford and Sheffield United respectively. It seems that the FA is also hoping for a north London derby in the FA Cup final!

Tottenham's opponents, Watford, are mid-table in League One and their reach for the FA Cup semi-finals is a surprise if not a miracle. However, they did not face any strong teams on their way to qualifying. The two Premier League teams Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion that we have met before are both mid-to-lower teams, and the others have been drawn from teams in the same league as them, or even lower, so they are lucky!

Even though it was already in the semi-finals, Hoddle still did not plan to send the main players. Chen Xi, who fought for 90 minutes in Rome three days ago, and some other main players were rested.

It's been a week off from the flu last time, and I only played a game and rested, which made Chen Xi a little uncomfortable, but thinking about the other teammates, they were all fighting continuously, and at the end of the season, everyone's fatigue had accumulated, and they really needed to rest.

Chen Xi is also just ready to think about his future plans.

So far, his mind is inclined to leave the team. Although Tottenham Hotspur has performed well this season, Chen Xi knows that these achievements are basically based on the team's strong attacking power. Tottenham Hotspur is one of the top scorers in the Premier League and Europe this season, but it is also the team that has conceded the most goals among the top teams in the major leagues!

As long as you meet a team with some strength, it is basically a goal battle, such a scene looks cool to the fans, but it is very psychologically burdensome in the eyes of the players!

No one wants the lead they have worked so hard to earn is wiped out in an instant due to instability at the back.

Chen Xi knows very well that if he plays for a giant team with excellent defense, his record this season can definitely be better, although his personal data may not be so good, but he does not have to bear so much pressure.

Chen Xi does enjoy the feeling of being a savior, but he doesn't want the team to stand up and save every important game. What if I don't feel good one day, or if I get injured and I encounter an important final? Isn't that just to watch the championship give up?

Of course, when he thought of those heartfelt fans of Tottenham Hotspur, Chen Xi had an urge to stay and continue to bring them honor. After all, Tottenham is the first professional club that Chen Xi plays, and Tottenham fans are also his first batch of loyal fans.

After thinking about it, Chen Xi still couldn't make up his mind, he could only wait until the end of the season and find a time to discuss it with George Hamm. After all, George Hamm knows which teams are interested in him, but he just wants him to hold them down for the time being.

In this way, one weekend, Chen Xi was about to spend it at home. Halfway through the afternoon, he received a call from Eva.

When he saw Eva's name displayed on the mobile phone screen, Chen Xi was very surprised, because this Nizi rarely took the initiative to call herself, and answered the phone with a smile, and he was used to saying with a smile: "Beautiful Miss Eva, do you know that I am lonely at home, and you are ready to soothe my empty heart?" ”

On the other end of the phone, there was no coquettishness or laughter and scolding that Chen Xi imagined, but Eva's somewhat anxious voice: "Come to the central hospital, David, he is injured!" ”

"David? What happened to him? Is it serious? Hearing Eva's anxious voice, Chen Xi knew that the situation might be a little serious, David Marven was the first few friends he had crossed over, and he was naturally very concerned.

He ...... It's serious, come here! When Eva thought of the terrifying scene he had just seen, she didn't dare to say anything, but asked Chen Xi to hurry up.

"Well, I'll be right over, and I'll call you when it's time to call!" After Chen Xi finished speaking, he hung up the phone, put on a piece of clothing casually, and rushed out of the house with the car keys.

Driving all the way, Chen Xi didn't know how much he was speeding and how much he would be fined. All he knew was that his friend was seriously injured and was in the hospital at this time.

Yes, Chen Xi seems to be a heartless guy on the outside, and sometimes he seems to be a little forgetful of friends, but he actually cares about the righteousness between brothers very much in his heart. Before the crossing, when he was young, he fought and made mistakes for the sake of his brother's righteousness. After he matured, although he knew that those fights when he was young were very irrational, he didn't regret it, and at the same time, he didn't let go of the righteousness in his heart, but he just changed the way he showed righteousness.

Originally, it would take about twenty minutes to drive, but Chen Xi only took ten minutes to arrive.

As soon as he arrived at the hospital and parked his car, he dialed Eva's phone and asked where Marven was being treated.

When he got upstairs, Chen Xi saw Eva's somewhat helpless expression, and he walked over and asked, "What's wrong with David?" ”

He ...... His leg was ...... Shovel broken! As soon as she said this, Eva sobbed and fell into Chen Xi's arms. As the team's medical staff, she was obviously frightened after seeing Marven's injury.

"Broken leg?" The result that Eva said was obviously more serious than Chen Xi imagined. He wasn't in the mood to go to the warm nephrite in his arms at this time, "Can I go see him now?" ”

"He's still receiving emergency treatment, and he may have to wait a little longer!" Leaning on Chen Xi's thick chest, Eva felt much better at this time.

Chen Xi didn't speak again, he just patted Eva in his arms, but he was thinking about the future for Marven in his heart.

Marvin's family conditions are very bad, relying on his low salary in the reserve team to barely support, once he can no longer continue to play, it will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to him and his family!

Just as Chen Xi was thinking, a doctor came over and informed: "Are you relatives and friends of David Marven?" He's now treated! ”

"Can we go in and have a look?" Chen Xi asked anxiously.

"Yes, but it's best not to stay too long and let him rest!" The doctor said truthfully.

Chen Xi nodded, and then walked to the ward with Eva.

At this time, David Marvin was half-leaning on the head of the bed, and his face, which was always smiling, was now lifeless.

"David, how are you feeling?" Chen Xi was the first to break the silence.

Seeing Chen Xi, David Marven was accustomed to wanting to show a smile, but he seemed to have suddenly forgotten what a smile was, and the expression on his face looked very awkward: "It's terrible!" ”

"Don't worry, now that medicine is so advanced, it should be curable!" He didn't even believe what Chen Xi said, but he just hoped that Marven would be better.

"It's useless! When that dog~ mother's guy was on my lap, I knew that I was finished, everything was finished! Marven closed his eyes and shouted in pain.

For a while, Chen Xi didn't know how to comfort Marven, he could only stand there.

"I'm so stupid! I thought that if I did a little better in the FA Cup, I would be able to sign a new contract and I would be able to get into the first team! It turned out to be ......," David Marvin said with a sad face again.

"Don't think about it, David! We have an ancient Chinese saying that it is natural to go straight to the bridge, which means that you don't have to think too much, and there will always be a solution to the problem when the time comes! You heal your injuries first, and then think about the future! Chen Xi continued to comfort.

This time it was David Marvin's turn to be silent, and he just leaned on the head of the bed in a daze, and did not reply.

"You have a good rest first, and we'll come back to see you later!" Chen Xi remembered that the doctor had just said that he wanted him to rest well, so he said so.

After saying that, he and Eva walked out of the ward, and he said to Eva again, "Help me go and ask the doctor how David is doing!" ”

Eva nodded and headed towards the doctor's office.

Chen Xi also took off the strength he had just disguised at this time, leaned his back against the wall, and covered his face in pain. He certainly knows what a broken leg means to a footballer. Chen Xi suddenly felt how vulnerable they were in the face of injuries. All it takes is one egregious foul to ruin a player's career!

Looking at Marven's appearance, Chen Xi seemed to see his future. Who can guarantee that he will not be the next person to be shoveled with a broken leg?

At this time, Eva also came back, and seeing Chen Xi's depressed appearance, she was a little distressed, but she still said truthfully: "The fibula of his left leg was broken, and his left ankle was dislocated because of this......"

"I don't know what that means, you just tell me if he can get back on the court?" Chen Xi shook his head and asked.

"Theoretically, yes, but in fact, being able to make him walk normally is a very good result!" Eva apparently understood this aspect of the problem, and said in a depressed mood.

Of course, Chen Xi knew what Eva's words meant. Even top players are hard to get back to their peak form if they have a serious injury, not to mention that David Marvin is only a reserve player. The club obviously won't spend a lot of money to save his career, they just make sure he doesn't end up with a disability.

Even if Marvin does recover, I'm afraid no team will want such a seriously injured reserve player.

Finding another way out may be David Marvin's only option
