Afternoon of December 24, England.

In a villa area on the outskirts of London, one of the villas in the neighborhood is in the best location, and four young Chinese people are chatting in the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Yu Hai looked around in the living room, while Dong Fangzhuo went upstairs and turned around twice, and then walked downstairs.

"Dude, you can! Within a few years of coming to London, I could afford to buy such a big house. Dong Fangzhuo sat on the sofa and nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, the sofa is also very soft." ”

Sitting opposite him was Wang Chuhe, Wang Chuhe said with a smile: "Brother Dong, this is the home of the captain of Arsenal, and it is normal to be luxurious." ”

Chen Tao took out a few bottles of pure water from the refrigerator and threw them to Dong Fangzhuo and a few people: "Drink water, don't talk nonsense." ”

Dong Fangzhuo frowned: "No juice?" ”

"The professor won't let me." Chen Tao sat beside Wang Chuhe, opened the water bottle, and drank it all.

Yu Hai and Dong Fangzhuo sat opposite, and the four of them chatted.

"Captain Arsenal, where are you going to invite us to dinner tonight?"

"Otherwise, let's make dumplings at home, it's more festive!"

"Stop! I really don't want to eat dumplings anymore! ”

"What do you mean? After staying in Europe for a few days, you don't look down on Chinese food? Have you forgotten your roots! ”

"That's not what I meant! I mean, when I hear about eating dumplings during the holidays, I have a headache. Our family does not care about the New Year, New Year's Day, Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Chongyang Festival...... As long as it's a festival, my mom has to eat dumplings! Since I was a child, the last thing I can hear about during the holidays is dumplings......"

"Hahahaha! It's the same in our family, dumplings are everything. ”

A few young people laughed and chatted happily.

Far from home and playing football in Europe, although he can have a luxury house and a luxury car like Chen Tao, his homesickness cannot be compensated.

Yu Hai leaned back on the sofa, and his tired energy had not yet eased up: "After playing the game yesterday, I was already too tired to work, and I drove for nearly three hours one morning before I arrived in London." Dong Zhuo and I won't be here next year, so let the two of you come to Manchester. ”

Chen Tao waved his hand: "Forget it, it's better for you to come to me, my place is big, it's convenient to toss." ”

Dong Fangzhuo's eyes lit up: "What are you tossing?" Do you have any special programs in store for tonight? Will a lot of people come? ”

"What do you think! Scum! Chen Tao threw the empty bottle in his hand at Dong Fangzhuo, "You kid has learned badly!" I'll tell the boss to clean you up! ”

"I'm just kidding, don't be so stupid." Dong Fangzhuo muttered, "Besides, according to your Arsenal tradition, you are now the captain, it is not certain whether we can meet in London next year, maybe Chu He will come to Manchester alone to spend Christmas Eve with us." ”

"! From my point on, the history of the Arsenal captain's old team officially began! ”

"Patrick Vieira, Cesc Fabregas, Van Persie all said that back then, ambitious."

"Dong Zhuo! If you say it again, I'll strangle you! ”

Chen Tao and Dong Fangzhuo, the two sworn friends, are really happy to love and kill each other.

At this time, Yu Hai stood up, gave the sofa to the two of them to toss, and then sat down next to Wang Chuhe opposite.

"Chu He, although you have not been in the Premier League for a long time, you have integrated into the team faster than several of us, and you have now become the absolute core of Arsenal's midfield. Chen Tao is Arsenal's attacking core and spiritual leader, and you are Arsenal's Dinghai Shenpin, the calmest person in Arsenal. ”

"Brother Hai, you have won the award, I still have a lot to learn from you."

"We have all grown up in the past few years, and the results of the national team have been getting better and better. In the 2011 Asian Cup, when our group was eliminated, I still can't believe it. ”

"Alas, at that time, many of our foreign players were injured, Brother Hai, you didn't participate, and Brother Dahai, Third Brother, Brother Xiang, many people were injured and couldn't participate. I was also injured, but I played half the first game and I couldn't hold on......"

"But after all, Chen Tao and Dong Zhuo are all here, as well as Brother Zhi and Dabao, they are all participating, but we still can't go further in the Asian Cup in the end."

Looking at Yu Hai's extremely regretful expression, Wang Chuhe was also a little sad in his heart.

The 2011 European Championship was a big start to the year, so everyone is looking forward to their group of Chinese players to play well.

But in the end, one win, one draw and one loss in the group stage, and was helplessly eliminated, even with many foreign players, this national team still played poorly.

Wang Chuhe said comfortingly: "Brother Hai, although we didn't play well in the 2011 Asian Cup, we still played very well in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers." You, Brother Dong, Brother Chen, and I, we all have goals and assists, and we have already qualified for the first round in advance, which is very good. ”

Yu Hai nodded: "Yes, this time it's not bad, we finally entered the top ten." But in all fairness, I think with the current situation of the Chinese national team, even if they enter the top 10, it will still be very difficult to go further and impact the World Cup again. Especially in individual positions, we still seem to be particularly unbalanced. ”

Hearing Yu Hai and Wang Chuhe talking about the national football team, Chen Tao and Dong Fangzhuo stopped making trouble, and the two discussed together.

Dong Fangzhuo patted his chest: "The national football team is absolutely no problem with the forward line now!" I, Dabao, Gao Lin, Han Peng, the total number of goals scored by our four forwards is among the best in the qualifiers! The Huaguo team relies on the front line! ”

Chen Tao snorted disdainfully: "Don't talk about it, blow the striker in front of the three midfielders, are you embarrassed?" Didn't you read the news that the midfield of the current Huaguo team is the top midfield configuration in Asia! Brother Zhi is the core of AC Milan's midfield, Xiao Hai is Manchester United's main fullback, Chu He and I are the duo of Arsenal, as well as Brother Jia, Brother Jia, Brother Hai Bing in the Bundesliga, not to mention Xiao Deng, Xiao Wu and Xiao Sun, they can only play as substitutes. Huaguo's midfield configuration, even compared with European teams, is not far behind! ”

Yu Hai put down the water glass and sighed softly: "But the defensive situation of the Huaguo team is not very good now." The back line lacks a major general, and the goalkeeper position is an absolute weakness. I don't know when Zeng Cheng and Wang Dalei will be able to play in the first team, and when they will be able to get tough. ”

Speaking of the goalkeeper, Chen Tao suddenly talked about another person: "I called that little brother a few days ago, and I wanted to invite him to come to London to spend Christmas Eve together, but he politely declined. ”

Wang Chuhe shook his head: "It's a pity, but it's understandable." The Premier League has the Christmas Devils stadium and the Championship is more intensive. Their club is too far away from London, otherwise I would have liked to meet him and have a good chat. After all, he is a talented goalkeeper that the boss is very optimistic about......"
