The seventeenth round of the league is followed by December 21, after which La Liga enters the winter break. Traditionally, each club has a Christmas dinner before Christmas. It's just that the Christmas dinner of the giant club has media attention, and the grassroots team is not interested.

This time, Valencia also had a Christmas dinner in accordance with tradition. Even because the president of the club has just changed, this Christmas dinner was quite grand.

It seems to be to show the grandeur and demeanor of the new chairman.

But the reality is that underneath the pomp and glamour, this year's Christmas dinner has a strange atmosphere.

A lot of people who used to know each other have left the club, and there are more new faces in the club.

This kind of Christmas dinner always has a feeling of awkwardness and distraction.

People can't even speak their minds.

Chang Sheng was not arranged to sit at a table with the chairman of the club, directors and shareholders this time.

In fact, with Chang Sheng's current results and status, he deserves such treatment.

But now the president of the club is Soler, not Otti.

So Chang Sheng can only go to the table with his own players.

But Chang Sheng felt that it didn't matter, anyway, he didn't want to sit at the same table with a group of sycophants who only knew how to praise Soler and pat Soler's sycophants.

When the time comes, if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, maybe he will flip the table directly.

- It's quite rhyming!

In fact, it can be seen from the arrangement of this seat that Soler is really an extreme person, and he has done a good job of excluding dissidents.

In the Otti era, everyone had a Christmas dinner, although there was friction or something on weekdays. But no matter what faction you are, you can still sit at the same table and eat. Of course, sometimes it is inevitable that there will be a few quarrels, just like Chang Sheng's original confrontation with Soler.

But they were still able to sit together, and Ottie did not use his chairmanship to forcibly intervene and engage in factional fighting on a festive occasion such as a Christmas dinner.

And these disappeared after Soler came to power.

Let's take a look at the seating arrangement of everyone at the Christmas dinner, Soler's faction is concentrated in the center, and the stars and moons surround the table where Soler is located. It fully highlights the high status of the president of the club.

The losers of the struggle, Ottie's faction, were all driven to the margins, and Ottie and his supporters seemed lonely and bored.

During the dinner, Soler enjoyed the praise and hope for a bright future for Valencia under his leadership.

Sycophants have said that Valencia is under the great leadership of President Soler. It will definitely go from glory to glory. Achieve the great revival of the Valencia club!

Chang Sheng sneered at the other table.

He knew what kind of virtue Valencia was under Soler, and the debt had climbed from 200 million euros to a maximum of 800 million euros!

Looking at the whole of Europe, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find a second one.

That's the level of leadership. What hope is there for a great revival?

It's a great joke, right?

After the boring Christmas dinner, Chang Sheng left Valencia again, this time naturally to find Avril.

He agreed with Avril that they would spend Christmas together every year. If it's not convenient for him, then Avril comes to him. If Avril is inconvenient. Then go find Avril yourself.

At this time of year, Chang Sheng will be particularly emotional, feeling that this year after year has passed very fast in the busyness of two people.

Whether it is herself or Avril, her career is on the rise and she is very busy.

Usually gather less and leave more.

As a result, Christmas every year has become extraordinary.

Gathering once a year is like a ritual.

※※※

After his Christmas break with Avril, Chang Sheng returned to Spain.

He's going to be extra busy this season.

The league and the Champions League, he has to attack.

In the league, he has ambitions to win three consecutive championships. Any dynasty needs three consecutive crowns, and he wants to build a dynasty in Valencia. Even because of Soler's existence, the goal of a triple championship cannot be missed.

As for the Champions League, he also wanted to see what different scenery there was in higher places.

However, as soon as he returned to Spain, he received a call from Reyes. Or strictly speaking, the plane has just landed, and Chang Sheng has just taken out his mobile phone and turned it on. I got a call from Reyes.

On the phone, Reyes looked disappointed and frustrated, and he asked Chang Sheng, "Don't you need me, coach?" ”

Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment. Didn't react at all - where is this?

If a woman calls and asks Chang Sheng like this, Chang Sheng will seriously think about whether he drank too much one night. He sowed a debt.

But a man said to himself so resentfully, "Don't you want me", Chang Sheng felt that something must be wrong in this world.

To figure this out, he asked, "What's wrong, José?" What happened? ”

"Aren't you going to sell me?" Jose. Reyes's voice was as if he had just been dumped by his girlfriend, pitiful.

Chang Sheng let out an "ah".

Sale?

I've been in the U.S., I'm on full leave, how do I sell players?

Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed through his head, and he grabbed something crucial.

"Who notified you of your transfer?" He asked.

Reyes also seems to have noticed that the situation is not what he thought it would be.

"Yes...... Uh, it's Sanchez, the manager of the club. ”

As soon as Chang Sheng heard the name, he understood: Sure enough!

Sanchez was a close confidant of Soler, and after Soler came to power, Pitacci resigned, and Sanchez was propped up.

However, Chang Sheng has never dealt with Sanchez, and after Sanchez became the general manager of the club, the two did not communicate at all.

Each other treats each other as air.

Soler sees himself unhappy, and Sanchez, who is Soler's confidant, naturally sees himself unhappy too.

It doesn't matter if you win, you see that I am not happy, and I still see that you are unhappy. But don't provoke me, that's right. Let's not interfere with the river water, just give me peace until the end of the season.

I didn't think it was just an extravagant hope.

How could Soler possibly make him comfortable and lead the team until the end of the season?

So he asked: "What's going on, can you tell me in detail?" ”

Then Reyes began to tell Chang Sheng what happened.

It was just now that Sanchez called Reyes and told him that the club were planning to sell him because there were several clubs interested in Reyes. Among them are teams from other national leagues, such as giants such as Arsenal.

Sanchez told Reyes that the club intend to complete Reyes considering it is a great opportunity for Reyes himself.

But Reyes didn't want to leave at all.

He told Sanchez that he wanted to stay in Valencia, but Sanchez didn't listen at all.

Reyes, who hung up the phone, thought about it. I don't think it's right.

The club is so resolute...... Could it be that the manager agreed? Because in the team. Only the manager has the power to decide who leaves and who stays.

If it weren't for Chang Sheng's nod, how could Sanchez possibly call himself?

But why would the manager agree to sell him?

Is it because you are not performing well?

Reyes became a regular after Vicente's injury and he did very well in the game.

After two seasons of tempering and running-in. Reyes is now much more mature and is at home in Valencia's tactics.

As of the 17th round of the league, he has three goals and four assists in the league. There was also a goal and two assists in the Champions League.

With a total of six assists, second only to Deco with seven. Tied with Villa and Ronaldinho for second place in the team's assists list.

With such a good performance, why did the manager sell himself?

Is it because Vicente is back?

The more Reyes thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.

After all, compared to Vicente, he is still too young. Vicente is a veteran of Valencia's many years.

He was also a regular on the left side of the team until his injury......

But it's okay if you don't be the main force, no one is indispensable in Valencia to play, you can be a substitute, you can have a lot of opportunities, he is not greedy......

Why did the manager sell himself?

Reyes really couldn't figure it out, and finally called Chang Sheng.

Hit the first often win on the plane. The phone is turned off, so when he dials, it prompts "The user you are calling has been turned off".

He didn't know Chang Sheng's whereabouts, and he thought that Chang Sheng was hiding from himself when he turned off the phone.

However, Reyes showed rare tenacity in this incident.

Chang Sheng turned off the phone, and he called again and again. He didn't believe that Changsheng would shut down all the time.

As a result, Chang Sheng had just gotten off the plane. Turning on the phone, Reyes's call came in.

In fact, Reyes didn't have to talk about the despair and helplessness when he called Chang Sheng again and again.

Chang Sheng already knew what was going on.

It's clear that Soler is starting to do something to his team, and he is not willing to take the transfer power into his own hands. He's going to take control of the team himself.

The sale of Reyes was completely unaware of in advance. I guess the media don't know that Soler has done a good job of secrecy in this matter......

If it weren't for the fact that Reyes and himself had a deep relationship and a close relationship, and they couldn't figure it out, so they called him to question him, but he was afraid that he would have been kept in the dark until the media published a photo of Reyes holding another team's jersey, and he would have known that Reyes had become a player of other teams.

It seems that they still know what to do behind their backs......

But they must not have expected Reyes to call him and let him know what they were doing in advance...... The conspiracy was revealed with a phone call. If Soler knew the cause and effect, he was afraid that he would definitely vomit three liters of blood in depression.

If it weren't for this call, he would have lost a right-hand player for nothing, which may have fatal consequences for the second half of the season...... Reyes has been outstanding this season, cutting inside as a right winger and providing assists from crosses, and his pace and technique have been able to disrupt opposition defences single-handedly.

In Valencia's forward line, Reyes has Reyes on the right, Ronaldinho on the left, and Villa in the middle.

If Reyes is really sold and Vicente can't play on the right, Angulo and Mista's quality is a little worse than Reyes. Plus right wing-back Paul. Ferreira is more conservative and usually does not assist. Without Reyes, Valencia's attack on the right flank would have been at least two-thirds paralyzed.

So Reyes must not go. Even if Vicente returns from injury, Chang Sheng has no intention of moving Reyes' position.

Fortunately, it didn't end up being a big mistake, and Reyes called himself now, which means that there is still room for manoeuvre.

I'll let you know what happens to those who move Lao Tzu!

In addition to his anger, Chang Sheng suddenly had the illusion that his manager who coached Valencia was not a football novel, but a palace fighting drama......

Damn, did Lao Tzu enter the wrong set?
