Whether Rome will regret it or not, no one knows, because they will not admit it.

But in fact, everyone does not need them to admit that Lazio fans are just using this way to ridicule Roma and hit their rivals in the same city.

Lazio beat second division side Stadera 3-1 at home.

In the league at the weekend, Lazio drew 0-0 away at Lecce.

Not to mention the goal, I almost conceded a goal.

If it weren't for Handanovic's excellent performance......

Perhaps the whole team was relieved after beating Juventus, but the performance of the whole Lazio team was not very good in this game.

That's the hallmark of young players, who can go above and beyond against tough opponents and beat incredible opponents.

It is also possible to lose the game by being listless in the face of the weak.

This team is still not stable enough. Chang Sheng has done his best to make the team a little more consistent, but his ability alone is limited, especially when he faces the entire Serie A league alone.

Although Lazio drew in this game, it was still in first place, Juventus won the game and had the same points as Lazio, but whether it was in the number of goals, or in terms of goal difference, or in the relationship between the two sides, Lazio was ahead of Juventus.

After the match against Lecce, the winter break of Serie A began.

Lazio finally won the winter break before the winter break.

This is a remarkable achievement.

Everyone who knows and cares about Lazio knows how difficult it is for Lazio to achieve such results.

Because of such good results, I believe that everyone should have good news when they have a Christmas dinner.

But when Lotito told the Lazio club that there was no Christmas dinner, he was stunned.

"None? Impossible, right? Isn't this a very important holiday? He asked Lotito.

Lotito smiled a little awkwardly.

"Well, given the club's current financial situation...... We believe that we should be diligent and thrifty, so we ...... The Christmas dinner was cancelled. ”

Chang Sheng looked at Lotito in a daze.

He didn't expect Lotito to get to this point......

But he also knows what Lazio is like. Although Lotito succeeded in getting the Italian tax authorities to lower the requirements for Lazio's debt, only 5.5 million euros a year would be repaid. But it only pulled Lazio back from the brink of death, but it did not get rid of the danger, so now the Lazio club still has to tighten its belts to get by.

Until now, media personnel have only been able to queue up for tickets in Lazio and collect them at one window.

Chang Sheng sighed.

The Christmas dinner didn't really cost much, but Lotito didn't allow anything to increase the club's financial burden.

He asked: "If you don't go to a fancy restaurant, you can't spend much money in the restaurant at the club's training base, right?" ”1

Lotito was hesitant: "You need money to buy ingredients......

Chang Sheng interrupted him: "Okay. Mr. President. You have to understand that spending such a small amount of money now will reap more rewards later. ”

"What does this have to do with having a meal?"

Chang Sheng shrugged: "Why is it okay?" I think having a good meal together at Christmas helps to unite the team. Improving combat effectiveness will help us achieve results next year. As our results improve, we will end up with more prize money, and when we get to the Champions League next season, we can transfer millions of euros in the group stage alone, which is enough money to pay off our debts. So it's a good deal for the money, and if you're really reluctant. So I'll pay out of my own pocket, right? ”

Chang Sheng thought that Lotito was going to refuse, but he didn't expect the other party to agree very simply: "Okay, you can pay it!" ”

Chang Sheng suddenly had a feeling that he had been pitted......

※※※

In fact, Chang Sheng really didn't spend much money, mainly the money for the ingredients. The team of chefs is ready-made. It's what comes with the Furmelo training base.

Except for a few people such as Lotito, no one knew that this was Chang Sheng's Christmas dinner out of his own pocket.

But you can still see that the club is only embarrassed by the economic crisis - unlike usual, every season in the past. Christmas dinners in Lazio are held in the best upscale restaurants in the city of Rome. Directly chartered, the restaurant did not pick up customers on that day. Only for Lazio.

And now, their Christmas dinner is held in the Autumn Garden Restaurant inside the Vermelo training base, which is also the cafeteria.

It's really shabby.

Although Rome, the city's sworn enemy, is not rich, but it is still possible to have a beautiful lunch in a high-end restaurant, under the attention of reporters' flashes and cameras.

Compared to Rome, Lazio is a refugee......

※※※

On the day of the end of the training, which was the first day of the Christmas dinner, Chang Sheng announced the plan for the Christmas dinner.

It can be seen that every player is full of expectations for this. Christmas dinner is another opportunity to present yourself in front of the media and the public.

On the pitch they are players, but on occasions like Christmas dinners, they are like stars on the red carpet. They can be exhibited

Show yourself in fashion and show yourself a completely different image than sweating and panting on the court, which is more handsome, cooler and more stylish.

Everyone is young, and everyone likes to show off.

On the pitch they can't show off their cars, their tastes in dress, their personal image.

This can be done at Christmas dinners. Players from big clubs have more opportunities, and Lazio's players have only this chance.

So they were looking forward to getting out of the car and walking across the red carpet in front of the restaurant, with reporters on both sides taking pictures with their cameras, and many fans coming to cheer and cheer...... They enjoyed the cheers, and it was the best gift of Christmas.

But then Chang Sheng poured cold water on them.

"Dining place, Vermelo."

The players were stunned for a moment: Vermelo? Isn't that a training base?

Why not go to the most exclusive restaurant in town?

Chang Sheng saw the disappointment in the players' eyes and continued: "Yes, the dinner is in the players' cafeteria at the training base. When the time comes, please remember to come on time. ”

After saying that, he didn't explain much. Then he turned and left.

There are some things that he has to say at the right time to be effective.

※※※

As mortal enemies in the same city, anything can be used to compare and contrast with each other.

Because it's the most intuitive and effective way for them to prove that they mix better than each other.

In the league standings, Lazio are much better mixed than Roma, they are the winter break champions.

Such a result, Rome can't catch up.

But at Christmas time, Roma fans finally managed to salvage some of their frustration – their Christmas dinner was much more lively than Lazio's!

The media and fans alike flocked to Rome's most luxurious restaurant to see the biggest names in action. When Totti appeared, it caused a crazy cheer from the fans at the scene, and the reporters were eager to press the camera shutter to keep it loose, and the flash was connected.

And what about Lazio?

It turned out to be a dinner party inside his own training base! It's shabby and pathetic!

There were no reporters swarming, no cheering fans.

The Lazio players drove the car. Or simply take a taxi to Fermello, who, though they are all well dressed, are not in a high mood due to the lack of applauding spectators.

※※※

Lotito really didn't understand why Chang Sheng had to insist on a Christmas dinner. Looking at the current situation, the players did not look very happy when they entered the restaurant.

Rather than being so reluctant, it's better not to do it directly. Give everyone a holiday in advance, and do whatever you want.

At least they don't have to be compared.

But Chang Sheng seemed to be in a good mood, and he was even humming after driving to the training base.

Of course. If some people listen closely, they will hear him humming Avril Lavigne's song.

When the players arrived, the doors of the restaurant closed and the dinner began.

Of course. Before eating, it is always the leader who speaks. This makes no difference whether it is domestic or foreign.

Lotito took the stage first as president of the club, and he thanked the players for their hard work and dedication over the past year, especially after the club was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Lotito said a bunch of nice things, but none of them were real, such as raises and bonuses.

It's not that Lotito doesn't know how to say it, it's that he doesn't dare to say it.

Now the club's finances are still very tight, and he doesn't dare to make a wish at will. Naturally, he will not take the initiative to increase the team's bonus.

Looking at the players' low mood, Lotito himself was not in high spirits.

All he said very simply, and then went down.

There was applause, but a little sparse.

Everyone's mood is not high......

The players' restaurant is a familiar place for them, and having a Christmas dinner here is like having a party at your own home where you eat every day, and there is always a lack of novelty and excitement.

And let's be honest, since the chef was given a pay cut, things in the restaurant have become more and more unpalatable......

Who likes a Christmas party in a place like this?

They really don't know what President Lotito thinks.

If you really don't have any money, then don't open it at all!

In the sparse applause, Chang Sheng took the microphone and walked on the stage.

He's going to speak, too.

Seeing him on stage, the applause was finally louder than before, and the players' faces also erased the previous expressions of low emotion.

Everyone didn't dare to show a dissatisfied expression in front of Chang Sheng. Chang Sheng has used his ability and skills to conquer these players. Especially use a dog to help them correct the problem of not training hard......

They couldn't imagine how their boss came up with the idea......
