Chapter 66: Invitation to the National Team?
Returning from Manchester, José plunged headlong into the bed, and he didn't claim the system's rewards in time.
Despite not winning the eventual victory, he received 8,000 points and 6 silver chests with a double bonus and a clean sheet.
Now Jose has more than 74,000 points, and there are 17 silver treasure chests, but it is not enough for two "ten consecutive draws", Jose chose to save up.
The reward of the system is naturally pleasant, but there is one small thing that makes Jose feel a little distressed, and that is the gloves and bracers, after withstanding Silva's kick, the durability is only a dozen points.
You must know that the bracers and gloves were newly created by Jose, and a game actually cost more than 80 durability points.
But the thought of gloves and bracers to save himself from injury made José no longer obtrusive.
Luckily, Jose still has an equipment voucher in his hand, which replenishes his durability for the first time.
……
After a night without a word, José woke up from his sleep the next morning, and he almost missed breakfast.
Fortunately, Grealish, the little prince of the nightclub, was more eye-catching, and seeing that Jose had not arrived at the base canteen for a long time, he asked the chef of the canteen to leave a special one.
can let the British chef deliberately save the meal for himself, Jose can be regarded as a big face.
Most of the training on the second day after the game was recovery training, and the intensity was not very high, especially when Jose was in the period of physical development, and the coaches strictly forbade him to exercise too much.
Therefore, the morning was spent in a pleasant atmosphere.
During the lunch break, Grealish suddenly came to Jose's room, only to see him look at Jose with a sinister look on his face and ask, "Jose, are you interested in joining the England national team?" ”
At this time, Jose was sending a message to his family, and when he heard Grealish's words, he immediately put down his mobile phone, stared at the other party and asked in surprise: "You British Empire, there is no shortage of a goalkeeper for me, right?" ”
Jose couldn't wait for the call-up of the Chinese national football team, but waited for an invitation from England?
Of course, Grealish's invitation is only a way out, and the FA's top brass will only approach Jose personally if he is interested. Otherwise, as a youth player in Grealish, who is qualified to invite Jose on behalf of the FA?
"No country will dislike talented players, let alone Jose, you are not an ordinary talent." Grealish said seriously.
"Really?" Jose smiled faintly.
"Of course it's true, I'm the same year as you, and you're already the main goalkeeper of the first team, isn't it a genius?" Grealish hurriedly explained.
José didn't reply, just shook his head slightly, Grealish misunderstood what he meant.
Not long ago, Jose had a phone call with Mr. Xia.
Although it was not explicitly stated, Xia Guoyong's words faintly expressed a hint that if Jose receives an invitation from other countries' football teams, don't be in a hurry to refuse.
Jose didn't quite understand what Teacher Xia meant, but he knew that Teacher Xia must know something, and he must have his own reasons for letting him do this.
José is not a pedantic person, but he has been receiving patriotic education all the time since he was a child, and deep down he still wants to serve the country.
So José didn't give an accurate answer to Grealish's stone-throwing question, he was waiting until the day when everything fell into place.
…
A year and a half from now, the World Cup finals will be in José's 19th year. Thinking that Ronaldo was already the main force in Brazil at the age of 18, and the nineteen-year-old Jose was nothing.
It's just that the Chinese men's football team will probably not be able to enter the finals again.
In fact, even if you get in, what's the use?
In their opinion, it is impossible to win, as long as they don't lose too much, they can have an account.
Not for winning, then for what? Gilding players?
…
Without José's affirmative answer, Grealish didn't care, after all, he was just asking questions on his behalf.
What's more, he doesn't even know if he will be in the England squad in a year and a half.
As for the question of whether the national team can qualify, Grealish has never thought about it, and in his subconscious, England's only goal is to compete for the final title.
Although Chinese netizens jokingly called England a European Chinese team, in fact, England has never bothered about qualifying for the World Cup.
There is one thing Jose did not notice is that the 14 World Cup finals will be the last World Cup of the golden generation such as Lampard, Gerrard and Terry.
For the last World Cup in their lives, they certainly want strong team-mates to join.
It's not that Joe Hart is bad, it's that he has a buttery hand attribute that attacks from time to time, which makes people crazy.
…
Jose didn't think too much about joining the national team, he is currently more concerned about improving himself in future competitions, competition experience is one thing, the same is the distribution of physical fitness, and the use of stunts.
Jose is well aware that without cheating stunts, against Manchester City, he will concede at least five goals.
However, at this time, Manchester City, in European football, can only be regarded as a strong team at most, and there is still a big gap between it and the giants.
Of course, some people will say that since Villa is not strong, it would be better to wait until they return to Chelsea.
José has his own ideas about this, and the icing on the cake will not be remembered for long, only those who have single-handedly led the team to the top will be talked about.
For the next week, José insisted on training during the day and studying at night, and in addition to his dream of football, José also wanted to get a college diploma.
Players get university diplomas, which is a very common thing in the Premier League, and most Chinese players, once they embark on the road of professional players, will give up their studies, which is why once they retire, they begin to fall down.
Of course, most of the South American players don't like to learn, but they can use their fame to still get a bite to eat.
Which university should I go to? Jose felt that the University of Oxford was a good one, but considering the ease of studying after returning to Chelsea, Jose felt that UCL was a better fit for him.
If the students of Huaxia knew what Jose was thinking at this time, they would definitely complain that Jose wanted to eat swan meat. Whether it is the University of Oxford or University College London, they are among the top ten universities in the world.
Jose is just a football player, can he pass the exam?
……
The days are rushing and the thirteenth round of the Premier League continues.
The teams have appeared.
The focus of this round, in addition to the match between Chelsea and Manchester City, the top team, is the match between Villa and Arsenal.
On the contrary, Manchester United's game, because the gap in the strength of the opponent is too large, there are many fewer people paying attention.
Before the start of the game, fans were looking forward to what kind of sparks would be sparked when they met Arsene Wenger's youth army after winning Manchester United and drawing with Manchester City.
The match between the two teams was scheduled for November 25, at 17:30 local time, at the Villa Park Stadium, where the local temperature was 5-7 degrees.
The starting line-ups for both sides were officially announced before the start of the game.
