Evening of December 24, Madrid, Spain.

In the private room of a Spanish restaurant in the center of Madrid, four Chinese people had a good conversation.

Jiang Zhipeng, who was sitting in the outer position, said with a big grin: "Brothers, let go of eating today, don't be polite, anyway, this guy has a treat, who makes him the most money." ”

Huang Bowen sat in the middle position, helplessly looking at Jiang Zhipeng who was ordering: "Dude, are you embarrassed to kill me?" We're both new to Atletico Madrid, so the salaries are the same......"

"Although the salary is the same, your bonus is high," Jiang Zhipeng leaned in and squeezed Huang Bowen, "Half a season has passed, and you have two goals and three assists, which is quite good." Coach Simeone's prize money is also high, and today is a celebration for you. Isn't it, Xiao Wu, Xiao Cai? ”

Sitting opposite the two were Wu Lei and Cai Huikang.

Looking at the two little brothers sitting opposite, Huang Bowen patted his chest: "No problem, I have a treat today, who will give me more goal bonuses." ”

Wu Lei smiled shyly: "Let the royal brother break the bank." ”

Jiang Zhipeng handed the menu to Wu Lei: "Don't order casually, you are in the northwest of Spain, we are in central Spain, the distance is too far, and we rarely see each other, just on the phone." Slaughter this guy today, let him eat alone and earn so many goal bonuses. ”

Huang Bowen: "What is this called eating alone, it's not that you're too weak......"

The two were arguing, and Cai Huikang suddenly said: "The two of us are in La Liga, and the salary is far worse than that of La Liga, but if it is compared to the goal bonus, it is estimated that Wu Lei may earn more than Brother Huang." He has now scored 10 goals in La Liga, the fifth-highest scorer in the list......

"I'm rubbing! So awesome? What's the situation? ”

Huang Bowen and Jiang Zhipeng were a little dumbfounded.

To be honest, although the four of them played in Spain together, Huang Bowen and Jiang Zhipeng didn't pay much attention to the performance of the two younger brothers in La Liga.

The two of them are not very old, and they are unknown in China, and they are just practicing in Xiyi.

I was really taken aback when I heard Cai Huikang say this.

'Already scored 10 goals? Still in fifth place in the La Liga scorer list? Xiao Wu, you are amazing! ”

Huang Bowen and Jiang Zhipeng praised repeatedly, which made Wu Lei a little embarrassed: "The confrontation in Xiyi is relatively weak, mainly relying on overall cooperation and individual skills, and I am a little faster, which is a bit cheaper." Especially last season when I was in the AC Milan Academy, Inzaghi was my mentor and he taught me a lot and I benefited a lot. ”

Cai Huikang waved his hand with a big grin: "You're welcome, I think your current level has surpassed Inzaghi." ”

Wu Lei: "Am I compared with him?" One in heaven and one in the ground, don't kill me......"

Cai Huikang: "But you are faster than him, I think even if he comes to our team, he may not score as many goals as you." ”

Wu Lei: "The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes......"

Cai Huikang: "I'm serious. Don't say you, I feel like I'm as strong as Gattuso now. ”

Wu Lei: "You forgot when you were hit by Gattuso on the training ground, right?" ”

Cai Huikang: "I didn't have a good balance, if I was put in a good position, I would definitely be on par with him!" ”

Listening to the arguments of the two younger brothers, Huang Bowen nodded: "This time I will stand on Xiao Wu's side." Xiao Cai, I think you think the position of a defensive midfielder is too simple. Do you think Gattuso is a world-class midfielder because he is physically strong and mentally powerful? Yes, but not all! ”

'Gattuso's peak was at AC Milan and he and Andrea Pirlo complemented each other perfectly. I don't know if you have paid attention, Gattuso and his teammates are very well coordinated, in addition to Pirlo, with Ambrosini, Seedorf and other players, he can cooperate very well. It's not just about his strong body and his unfathomable style of play, it's also about his position selection and judgment. ”

"Gattuso isn't fast, but you can always see him running around the field, but where there's a situation, he's there. This is not only his physical fitness, but also because he predicted the direction of the opponent's attack in advance and made the most reasonable choice in advance. ”

"So, Xiao Cai, you can't just patronize strength training, you also have to use your brain more, so that you can become a more reliable defensive midfield barrier on the field."

Huang Bowen can be said to be the leader of the young generation of midfielders in Huaguo, and his words are not unreasonable. Jiang Zhipeng agreed with this statement: "Xiao Cai, you do things straightforwardly, but you must use your brains more on the court, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort." I hope you grow up as soon as possible, come to La Liga as soon as possible, and let's play football together. ”

Cai Huikang: "That's what I dreamed of!" ”

Jiang Zhipeng: "And in the national team in the future, you and this guy are both backs, you strive to compare him and become the main force of the national team!" ”

Cai Huikang: "This, I'll try my best." ”

Wu Lei dragged Cai Huikang: "Don't make trouble, you are far from Brother Huang, study hard first." ”

Wu Lei was afraid that Cai Huikang's open-mouthed mouth would make Huang Bowen unhappy, but he didn't expect Huang Bowen to smile instead: "Okay, if you can surpass me one day, I will be happy for you." Now in the Chinese team, excellent offensive players abound, but there are not many good defensive players. There are Dong Fangzhuo, Gao Lin, and Dabao in the front, and there are Brother Zhi, Xiao Chen, and Chu He in the midfield. But to be fair, it's the defense that stretches the hips the most. ”

Jiang Zhipeng was a little unconvinced: "Who said that defensive players can't do it, Zhang Linpeng's guy has also entered the list of the best 11 in international football this year." ”

Huang Bowen shook his head: "There is only one Zhang Linpeng, what can it do?" Among the remaining defensive players, Haibing is the best midfielder now, and the wind is very stable, but even if they play well, can they compare with the captain of Arsenal and Manchester United's main striker? ”

"Who are the remaining defenders? You, me, Li Xuepeng, Zhang Chengdong, how do our defensive players compare with other offensive players? The main position can't be played, and it's said that it's defensive crotch, isn't it normal? At the beginning of the Asian Cup, why was the group eliminated, wasn't it because the defense was not good and too many goals were conceded......

After Huang Bowen said this, several people were silent.

Jiang Zhipeng wanted to refute, but in the end he didn't say anything, and after a long time he whispered: "Dude, you're right, we defensive players must come on." Otherwise, even if we have already advanced to the top 10 of the World Cup qualifiers in advance, we must not hold back if we want to stand out......"
