London, 2 August 1998.

Double-winning Arsenal have a club record transfer fee.

With 24 million marks converted into pounds of about 10 million, such a transfer fee is not enough to make people marvel if it is placed on the two giants of Serie A or La Liga, as well as the old rivals Manchester United. But if you put it on the professors and Arsenal who have always been good at cultivating demons and are calculating to the level of picking, it is enough to hold up a few weeks of sports.

Personnel play, tactical characteristics, salary levels, locker room order, head coach authority

These more in-depth discussions are high-grade and pursuing media talks, as for the three wives, the wedding of the century, and the national team turmoil, these contents are the patent of the tabloids.

Bergkamp's record £7.5 million transfer fee set in 1996 has been described as a great deal, and the Dutchman has become a well-deserved symbol of Arsenal after the Premier League double and the World Cup win over Argentina. Even the British media, which has always been picky and xenophobic, can only marvel and sigh in the face of this kind of master-level performance.

Now, in addition to him, there is another guy who has caused a sensation in Europe for a whole year, which makes the new season not yet start, and Arsenal's road to defending the title has been favored by everyone.

Of course, after winning the Premier League double, defending the title is not enough to arouse the appetite of the media and fans.

UEFA Champions League!

That's the team's biggest battleground.

At the moment, the team is strong, morale is high, pre-season preparation is quite hot, and everything seems to be developing in the direction of building a dynasty and consolidating the status of the giants. If they can break the club's all-time record in the new season and sweep Europe away with Arsenal's incredible attacking power, then the team and the technical football they represent will leave a mark on history.

The start of the new season is just over a week away. There was even less time left for Yu Mo to adapt.

There is no way, it is difficult for a family to come from the scenic town of Kaiserslautern and adapt to the metropolis of the world's financial center all at once. As the pillar of the family, it is impossible for him to be the shopkeeper, and it is already considered to burn high incense without bothering about everything.

There are reasons for this on both sides.

Arsenal's transfer offer and salary level are not the highest, even if Kaiserslautern will not be staring at the price. We will not give up the consideration of maximizing profits. Moreover, there are such things as transfers, which are done on the first day the window opens, and there are not a few who get it done at the last minute.

After all, he is the star of the house, and no one is willing to let go, and it is obviously not in line with the expectations of the club and the fans to sell it to the other party easily.

You Mo actually wanted to go to the team to report earlier, but the World Cup and the wedding after that delayed a lot of time. A series of commercial activities followed. The awards ceremony, interpersonal relationships, and continued to burn his time and energy, and finally got into the current situation.

The only thing to be thankful for is that his physical condition is still good.

If you haven't played for two months, it may have a big impact on others, and it is really insignificant for him.

Football is only his ultimate battlefield, and the achievements of other small battlefields should not be underestimated!

Last season was in the final stages. The fitness he has always been proud of has gone wrong due to a lack of pre-season preparation. If Rehhagel at that time was replaced by Arsene Wenger, it would be appropriate to use the injury and the disability.

This summer. The arrival of Babbel solved this problem perfectly.

The German parkour master is also a professional athlete, and now he has only become Youmo's personal trainer, and he has no intention of giving up his career.

Parkour is not too physically demanding, but you want to avoid injuries and prolong your professional life as much as possible. Targeted physical training is essential. In addition to this, strength, flexibility, and skill, these parkour attributes are far beyond the requirements of professional football players.

Youmo was able to achieve what he is now. These things are a great thing!

Of course, these things are not training with the ball, and not playing an official game for two months will definitely bring about a lack of ball sense. If you add his own technical shortcomings, the gap caused by Arsenal's proud technical flow play is wide.

How to fix it?

At the end of the first day of joint practice, Arsene Wenger also had such a problem.

The disconnect was expected, but the disconnect was so exaggerated, and the team's xenophobic reaction was so great, something he didn't expect at all.

The Frenchman is certainly aware of what happened on the beach soccer pitch in Dinard last season, but in his opinion, it was just a joke of the youngsters and would not affect the future relationship between the two parties. At that time, he was still a little uneasy, and after carefully asking You Mo about the final treatment, he was completely relieved.

If you win, you can take the initiative to lower your posture and give the other party a step, such a guy is mature enough to deal with people.

As for Anelka, that's an old talk. If it weren't for Real Madrid's offer that made him not very satisfied, such a thorn would have been dumped by him to Madrid.

A.T. Kearney Training Base, Head Coach's Office.

"It's only the first day, are you asking too much of him?"

Pat Rice was sorting out the information, and after working for a while, he didn't see any movement next to him, so he looked up and looked at the frowning guy.

"yes, it's probably a bit more demanding. However, if you bring this kind of training situation to the competition, it can be a big problem. Wenger tapped his fingers on the table and didn't look up, his eyes still full of worry.

"It's normal, when a newcomer first arrives, there will always be people who don't like it and want to give him a taste of bitterness. At the worst, we must also use a sense of distance to maintain the original order. Pat Rice smiled and nodded.

"What about Daniel and Tony?" Wenger breathed a sigh of relief and turned to ask.

"You don't know the temper of two people. Daniel loves perfection in everything, and the newcomers can't quite get into his eyes. Tony is happy to see a guy who looks like him, but his attitude is representative of the entire locker room, and he will not easily show any inclination until an agreement is reached. Pat Rice had apparently noticed the two of them since the morning, and now replied in a straight voice.

"Anelka is a bit surprising!" Arsene Wenger laughed.

"yes, it looks like the French team has won the Hercules Cup. It was not a small irritation for him. Pat Rice also laughed.

"I hope so."

Arsene Wenger got up, turned his neck and watched his old partner come over.

This guy who is half a year older than him has an easy-going face like an uncle next door, and the smile that often hangs on the corner of his mouth is very infectious, which can make the person he communicates with unconsciously excited.

Pity. The years make people old, and the gray hair is late.

In just two years, the other party's gray hair and wrinkled eyes have become the object of ridicule for each other.

"As soon as this year is over, we will be 50. The construction of the new stadium is still two years away, so hurry up! ”

"Yes, the storm of money is about to blow, and the idealists are running out of breath."

Meanwhile. Inside a single-family house in north-west London.

The family has been busy moving recently, and their feet don't touch the ground, and today is finally over, and everyone is tired enough.

Moving this kind of thing may not produce much physical strength, but it is appropriate to disrupt the rhythm of life, and the trouble caused by unfamiliar language and environment aggravates the sense of discomfort, making the originally simple things complicated, and finally inevitably affecting the mood.

Besides. The British are not as enthusiastic as the Germans, and their subconscious anti-Chinese tendencies make their attitude difficult to compliment. The family was not less wronged when they went through various procedures.

If there is no comparison, this kind of thing will be over.

Unfortunately not.

"These British people are so annoying, they are deferential on the surface, but in fact they look down on people, and there are no Germans to deal with at all!"

Jiang Xiaolan now seems to have changed from an angry little maid to a noblewoman, and her tone of voice is much more confident than before.

The mother is more precious than the son, and this kind of thing has never been a lie.

"The house is expensive to death for. Such a 6-bedroom villa, the actual size is about the same as that of Kaiserslautern, and the price is more than three times more expensive! ”

Wang Dan didn't lose her job because of this transfer, but her old man didn't plan to separate from each other. Kaiserslautern also took into account her specific situation. She only needs to come back once a week, and the rest of the time it is online.

Now that the family has arrived at the world's financial center, they have fully seen the extravagant pomp and grandeur of London's wealthy districts and the strange look of the British under politeness.

How can she endure it with her arrogant nature?

It's a pity that there's nothing to be done about it.

The 900,000-pound villa has almost emptied Youmo's account, and it is unlikely that he will be able to make some money from investing in the project in the short term. If you don't have money, you naturally don't have enough confidence. If you don't perform, you can only eat the old book, which is obviously a bit outdated for competitive sports that keep pace with the times.

Youmo's magical performance in the myth of the Red Devils has been praised by the British media, and it stands to reason that there is no such thing as a need to prove himself. However, the media depends on topics to eat, and if you rely solely on off-site news to maintain popularity, it will inevitably give people the impression that they are not doing their jobs.

The British newspapers and tabloids don't know very well whether this guy is good or not, and he is currently in the tentative stage, his wording is more cautious, and his behavior is not out of line.

Now, more than two months have passed since the myth of the Red Devils, and repeated heated discussions will make people aesthetically tired. In this case, the World Cup, which ended in early July, made up for this shortcoming.

Bergkamp and Overmars, the two Dutch strikers; Seaman, Adams, the two central defenders of England; Petit and Patrick Vieira, the two French midfielders, both played well at the World Cup in France. The last two guys also lifted the Hercules Cup, which made the British media envious and hateful.

If it weren't for Beckham's red card, who wouldn't have had the last laugh!

"The British generally have a down-and-out aristocratic temperament, and it is not difficult to get their approval."

In fact, Wang Jiujing is the fastest to adapt to the environment among all people, one is the historical, cultural and linguistic attainments, and the other is the problem of his own positioning.

In his opinion, if you change the environment, you have to say goodbye to the past completely. If you are still reluctant to give up the life that was once beautiful, it can only show one problem.

I don't have the courage to face a new challenge head-on!

"Yes, the people in this country are very good-looking, they like pomp, and they are not as direct as the Germans."

Zhou Xiaofeng walked out of the room and answered.

He and his wife have no shortage of overseas travel experiences and are no strangers to the UK. However, there is still a significant gap between coming here as a tourist and being immersed as a host.

"Today is Momo's first time participating in training, will a lot of interesting things happen?" After listening to the conversation between the two old men for a while, Jiang Xiaolan calmed down a lot, glanced at the time, and began to chatter.

"Interesting? I'm afraid it's a little difficult. The British are not easy to get along with, the French have a personal vendetta against him, and the Dutch are arrogant, and the team won two more titles last season. Even if they don't put their heads up to the sky, they will look at the guy who set the club's transfer record with tinted glasses. ”

Zhou Xiaofeng's words silenced the originally lively living room.

It is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country.

Although the upward road is difficult to walk, the people are united and their efforts are unreserved. Once you reach the top and enjoy the scenery at a glance, it is hard to guarantee that no one will be selfish and want to make some trouble out of nothing.

The brief silence was quickly broken by the doorbell, Wang Dan jumped up from the sofa, took out the momentum to interview the Bundesliga MVP, and rushed over to open the door.

His expression was calm, his smile was lazy, and he couldn't tell what he was doing that day!

"How?" When reporter Wang Da saw him like this, his heart was half relieved.

The most feared thing in my own house is the emotional guy, those who are arrogant, pedantic, and contrived, all of them will not be taken seriously.

"I don't understand, it's not that you don't know my level of barely passing English level 4." You Mo saw her cautious appearance, so he decisively threw the backpack to her.

"It's so heavy, what are you buying?" Reporter Wang Da instantly incarnated as Secretary Wang, and his professional smile bloomed.

"I bought some TNT, please send it to Lu Wei."

“TNT？”

Wang Danleng paused for a moment before he realized the problem from Jiang Xiaolan's snicker.

"It seems that my reasoning is correct." Zhou Xiaofeng also stood up and walked over.

For the godfather, You Mo is naturally not good at prevaricating with jokes.

"I didn't touch the ball much in the summer, and my feet felt astringent, and I was laughed at a lot on this day."

"Jokes? What kind of joke? Wang Dan had some ominous premonitions in his heart, and dragged the arm of this thing.

"The kind of ridicule. I went upstairs to see Xinya, and called me after dinner. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was more than silence in the living room.

Cold.

When Jumo first arrived in Germany two years ago, Kaiserslautern was in deep crisis. Coach Friedel pushed him to the front in order to be a dead horse doctor, took on the responsibility of scoring goals, and asked the whole team to create chances for him.

This kind of start is not perfect, and it is still difficult to have the last laugh if you can't grasp the proportion, but in any case, it is much better than this first impression in front of you!

Laughing at this kind of thing is the most irritating.

Ignore it, and don't be weak. Raising the bar will give a worse first impression.

Offering to please?

Is this the kind of thing that the pillar of the family should do?

"Wow, why do you buy so many hot pot bases on a hot day?"

In the silence, Jiang Xiaolan was trying to warn herself to worry less. Picked up You Mo's backpack on the sofa, flipped through it slightly, and couldn't close his mouth in surprise.

"Boss Wang sent it, the one in Fengyi Building, do you remember, someone sent it over." You Mo just hugged her daughter out and replied casually.

"Oh, I miss it." Jiang Xiaolan stared at the bags of attractively colored hot pot bases, and her thoughts drifted far away.

Seeing this, Wang Jiujing shook his head, sighed, and asked, "How do you plan to deal with the situation in front of you?" ”

You Mo also sighed.

"It's been a long time since I've been treated like this, it's a rare opportunity, seize the time to reflect." (To be continued......)
