Chapter 45 Chu and Cesc
Although Chu Zhongtian did not show any limelight in the war of words, there were still North London media mentioning him. Who made him famous now?
As the core of Real Madrid, he was also under psychological attack from the media. In the report, North London media called Chu Zhongtian "Fabregas' stand-in", which shows how he despised and disdained him.
Of course, this may not be really despising, it is just a means of psychological warfare. I hope to use it to anger Chu Zhongtian.
But Chu Zhongtian didn't care about how the media viewed him. When he first came to Real Madrid, the term "Fabregas's substitute" was used by some malicious media, and he didn't feel any disgusted at that time. First of all, Fabregas is indeed very good. Compared with him, he would not make Chu Zhongtian feel insulted. Secondly, he never thought he was anyone's substitute. When he was called Beckenbauer II, he did not think that he was really "Emperor II". So such belittlement did not work for him.
Chu Zhongtian is unwilling to go to a verbal battle because football is not won by saying it by saying it is a verbal battle, but by playing with both feet. So although both sides are now verbal battles in the media, sometimes Arsenal has the upper hand, and sometimes Real Madrid has left the opponent speechless. In fact, they are all false, and those who can still smile must have won the game, rather than won in a verbal battle.
※※When Real Madrid arrived at Heathrow Airport, Chu Zhongtian met Boss John and the others at the airport.
No matter which team he is in, as long as he returns to London to play, he will definitely see the faces of these old friends.
"Welcome to Mr. Seventy million!" Boss John and others held up such banners to cheer for Chu Zhongtian.
Chu Zhongtian walked over to sign them, but in fact he chatted with them on the grounds of signing and reminiscing about the past.
"Although I like Arsenal's football, I have to be a Real Madrid fan this time, ha!"
"Hey Chu, can you ask for Cristiano Ronaldo's signature for me?"
"I want Kaka! Kaka!"
"Do you all want me?" Chu Zhongtian pretended to be angry.
Everyone laughed: "We don't care about your signature anymore, Chu!"
"However, after reading the London media reports, they don't respect you enough, Chu! They actually said you are "Fabregas' stand-in". Real Madrid quoted Fabregas only 60 million, and gave you 70 million. Is there a stand-in with a higher value than the main owner?"
Old friends were indignant that the media looked down on Chu Zhongtian so much. Chu Zhongtian smiled indifferently: "Everything depends on your feet. Just let them know this during the game."
"Hey! I just like your mentality!" Boss John patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder. "Come on! We will go to watch your competition then! its_my_chuuuuuuuuuuuuu--" He headed together, and the people around him sang together.
Amid the singing, Chu Zhongtian waved goodbye to these lovely old friends and turned back to the team. This time he was also responsible for asking for autographs from his star teammates.
c. Ronaldo saw him return to the team and heard the songs of the fans. He smiled and patted Chu Zhongtian on the head: "It seems that you are very popular in London, Chu!"
"Aren't you?" Chu Zhongtian handed over a few jerseys.
The Portuguese were a little surprised: "Is this?"
"They asked me to find you for an autograph." Chu Zhongtian blinked at Ronaldo.
※※※The battle between Mourinho and Wenger continued until the press conference the day before the game. The two head coaches did not attend the press conference at the same time, but the smell of gunpowder was still strong and everyone smelled it.
At the press conference, Mourinho did not mention Arsenal at all, but recalled his years at Chelsea, saying that returning to London was like returning home. He met many old acquaintances here, which made him feel good. He was completely stressed.
Such a contemptuous attitude made Arsenal very dissatisfied. A reporter told him Mourinho's performance at the press conference after Wenger appeared. The Frenchman was very dissatisfied with Mourinho's attitude: "I think he lacks basic respect. It is his business for him to recall Chelsea, but he will soon understand that this time he is not here for vacation."
Regardless of whether Mourinho's attitude is arrogant or not, at least he has one thing right - returning to London is like returning home for him.
Even in this game, he has a large number of supporters. Just like Chu Zhongtian has supporters from Wimbledon, Mourinho has supporters from Stamford Bridge. In this game, many Chelsea fans will come to support Mourinho.
※※ Although Chu Zhongtian performed very low-key before the game, he was disappointed with his low-key performance. He did not respond to the provocation and insults of the pro-Arsenal media, which made people think he was scared.
But when the game started, everyone found that Chu Zhongtian did not dare to fight back, but used all his strength on the court.
As soon as the game began, he suddenly inserted into the penalty area and made a powerful shot.
If Arsenal's goalkeeper Amunia had not reacted quickly and saved the football side, perhaps Arsenal would have fallen behind in forty seconds.
Arsenal's radio commentator was speechless in the face of this shot. He had just begun to think about the starting list of both sides. Unexpectedly, Chu Zhongtian made a threatening shot, which he could not have imagined.
"Chu Zhongtian - Oh! Beautiful!" He Ping shouted very enthusiastically. Before the game, the London media belittled Chu Zhongtian's fans, which made him, Chu Zhongtian's fans, feel very happy. As long as Chu Zhongtian has a wonderful performance in the game, he will try his best to praise him. Although others are in the studio in Beijing, he fantasized about the expressions of the reporters who were shocked by Chu Zhongtian's performance, and he felt very happy.
Only Real Madrid players understand that if Arsenal really despises Chu Zhongtian and only treats him as Fabregas' stand-in, then Arsenal will be in great trouble...※※In fact, among the Chinese media, this game is considered a contest between two midfield masters. Real Madrid has Chu Zhongtian, while Arsenal has Fabregas.
So the collision between the two people in this game will be quite interesting.
In this game, Xavi Alonso continued to sit on the bench, not because he had not recovered from his injury. But Mourinho considered that it was a away game, Arsenal's midfield was very strong and needed an engineer-type midfielder who was specifically responsible for interception. No one was more suitable than Khdira.
He ran tirelessly in the midfield, doing dirty and tiring work silently, clearing out a relatively orderly midfield space for Chu Zhongtian, C. Ronaldo, Kaka and others.
And this is something Alonso cannot do. Although Alonso can defend, he is not a professional defensive player after all, and his effect is not as good as Khedira.
So Mourinho put Alonso on the bench.
It doesn't matter to Chu Zhongtian and his partner. He and Khedira cooperate well anyway. When he and Khedira partner, he takes less attention to defense and can devote more energy to offense, while Khedira is dedicated to defense. When he and Alonso partner, both of them need to attack and defense.
Of course, Chu Zhongtian also has a defensive task in this game. His defensive goal is Fabregas.
Mourinho intends to give full play to Chu Zhongtian's omnipotence. Since he can attack and defend well, he will let him curb Fabregas in defense.
As long as Arsenal loses Fabregas, it means he has no brains and is very confused.
In terms of defensive hardness, Chu Zhongtian is much stronger than Fabregas, and Mourinho is not worried that Chu Zhongtian will not be able to defend Fabregas.
After Chu Zhongtian volleyed his shot to declare war on Arsenal, Arsenal quickly made a reward.
After receiving Walcott's cross, Van Persie headed the ball in front of the goal, but unfortunately he was slightly off the ball.
Another person who needs to be very careful in this game is not Van Persie, but Walcott. His speed is too fast. If Arsenal seizes the opportunity to fight back, almost no one can stop the "little tiger" running at full speed.
So Mourinho requires the back line not to be too pressed or offside in this game. For this reason, he has not allowed Marcelo and Bale to start, but let Aveloa, who has a more stable defense, serve as the starting left back. Aveloa's offensive ability is far worse than the first two, but he is moderate in defense, obedient and does not press forward, so that he will not give Walcott too much space to play his speed advantage - as the left back, he just faces Walcott, the right winger.
※※※After each of the two sides had a threatening attack, the game officially opened.
The re-confrontation between Mourinho and Wenger attracted the attention of the whole world. The photographers on the sidelines did not aim the camera at the stadium, but frequently turned to Mourinho and Wenger.
After the game started, both head coaches sat on their coaching seats, did not come out to direct the game, and had no direct conversations.
Before the game, the two of them took it as a matter of course not to shake hands or hug any friendly moves.
Mourinho wants to take three points away from the away game, while Wenger can't wait to defeat the other side, and there is absolutely no friendship between the two sides.
In the eleventh minute, Real Madrid initiated an offensive. Khedira cut off Van Persie's ball and passed it to Chu Zhongtian. Chu Zhongtian just turned around and saw Arsenal's midfielder Alexander. Song rushed up. He almost made a conditioned reflex to avoid the ball. He stretched out his foot and poked the ball to the side, avoiding the snatch. Then he dodged the side and then bypassed Song and controlled the football again.
"Beautiful! The man ball has been divided!" He Ping shouted excitedly again. He now only regrets that he is not in the commentary seat of the Emirates Stadium and cannot use exaggerated actions to demonstrate to the London media - you are looking down on our Chu Zhongtian!!
After Chu Zhongtian dodged Song, he drove the ball forward. The person who came up to defend him this time was Fabregas.
The commanders of the two teams finally met head-on.
Fabregas did not snatch the ball rashly, but stuck until it forced Chu Zhongtian to slow down and prevent him from continuing to dribble the ball in. Everyone knows that Real Madrid's characteristic is fast, and as long as they can slow them down, it means that their defense is successful.
Chu Zhongtian did not entangle with Fabregas, and he turned around and divided the football to Kaka who followed the sidelines.
Then he ran over Fabregas without the ball.
Fabregas did not go back to defend Chu Zhongtian, but rushed towards Kaka. The person who came back to defend Chu Zhongtian was Song.
Wenger asked Song to defend Chu Zhongtian because Song is the most trustworthy midfielder with the best defensive ability in Arsenal midfielder. Of course, the best one has to deal with the best one.
However, as soon as the two met, they gave it away and left it. This was undoubtedly a humiliation for Song, who had become famous and made rapid progress in his youth. He must find this game back in the game.
Song, who came back to defend Chu Zhongtian, had a much more fierce movement this time.
When Kaka pretended to break through but passed the football to Chu Zhongtian, he suddenly bumped into the side. Such physical contact was nothing in the Premier League, but it might be a foul in La Liga. Song hopes to use such a collision to make Chu Zhongtian lose control of the football - he must have lacked real understanding of Chu Zhongtian. Although he watched a lot of game videos about Chu Zhongtian before the game, this does not mean that he really knows Chu Zhongtian's strength. There are many things that cannot be seen by watching the game video.
So his collision did not pose any threat to Chu Zhongtian, and Chu Zhongtian's figure did not even shake.
The Cameroon international was a little surprised, but his reaction was too fast. Seeing that his collision was not successful, he immediately reached out and grabbed Chu Zhongtian's clothes, preventing him from taking the opportunity to escape.
Chu Zhongtian did not intend to break through, but directly passed the football out, this time he passed it to Ozil who came back to pick him up.
Through this offense, Chu Zhongtian has tested what Arsenal's attitude towards him. Perhaps the pro-Arsenal media showed contempt for him, but Arsenal's head coach Wenger absolutely had no intention of contempt. He let the team's most outstanding defensive midfielder to defend himself.
However, for Chu Zhongtian, Song may be considered an excellent midfielder in the Premier League recently, but he still cannot threaten himself. Chu Zhongtian has encountered many very powerful midfielders. He has fought with them and has rich experience in fighting. He knows how to deal with these midfielders. Especially those with strong midfielders, this is the type that Chu Zhongtian is most afraid of.
After Chu Zhongtian passed the football out, he quickly got rid of Song's entanglement and ran to the next place.
Song ran over with him.
Ozil did not continue to pass the football to Chu Zhongtian, but turned around and organized the attack.
The advantage of Real Madrid is that they are not the only one who can pass the ball. Ozil and Alonso are all good players.
When Song was entangled with Chu Zhongtian, Ozil was short of people to defend.
Ozil pushed a straight pass, Higuain inserted into the penalty area, a little late, the football was stuck in the position early by Arsenal's central defender Vermalen and drove out with big feet.
Chu Zhongtian's idea in this game was that if Arsenal strictly guarded him and limited his role, he would pass more football to Ozil and hand it over to this very spiritual player to play football to deal with Arsenal's defense.
He only serves as the rhythm controller, similar to the character behind the scenes.
He also used this move at Hoffenheim. When the opponent cared too much about him, he passed the football to Salihovic or Eduardo, allowing these two people to organize the offense, and he was only responsible for controlling the rhythm. He made the opponent's defensive arrangement lose its effect and meaning.
After all, there are only eleven people on the field. If heavy troops take care of Chu Zhongtian, there will inevitably be loopholes in the defense of others.
※※※After understanding Arsenal's defensive strategy against him, Chu Zhongtian retreated a little, leaving the frontcourt position to Ozil.
Now he can use more energy to defend Fabregas.
Fabregas is characterized by delicate footwork, strong overall view, accurate judgment, very calm ball control and pass ball, and decisive shooting. He is an all-round midfielder organizer, and he does have similarities with Chu Zhongtian. It is no wonder that the media in North London call Chu Zhongtian "Fabregas's stand-in". They believe that Fabregas became famous earlier than Chu Zhongtian. Although Chu Zhongtian is in the limelight at the moment, according to the time of appearance, Chu Zhongtian is indeed quite like Fabregas' stand-in.
When dealing with such a player, Chu Zhongtian sometimes feels like he is dealing with himself.
Fabregas's only weakness is that his physical fitness is not outstanding enough, his ability to fight is not too strong, and his heading is not good.
Chu Zhongtian decided to start from here and deal with Fabregas.
When Fabregas received a pass from his teammate to him, Chu Zhongtian suddenly squeezed forward, preventing him from turning around easily, and also ramming him from behind, making him unable to control the ball.
Of course, Fabregas's footwork would not lose the ball with just a bump, but it would allow him to spend more time adjusting the football. When he re-controlled the ball, Real Madrid's defense was basically arranged. He could not find any good solution, and because he could not turn around, he could only pass back and cross.
In order to enhance the effect of this defense, Chu Zhongtian did not hesitate to foul, but also wanted to make Fabregas suffer.
Van Persie passed the football to Fabregas. Chu Zhongtian kicked Fabregas directly from behind this time. In the middle circle position, this was not a threatening attack, but Chu Zhongtian still did this. It can only explain one thing - he was warning Fabregas that there would be no good results when encountering him!
Fabregas lay on the ground, covering his heels, feeling a little painful.
Just now, Chu Zhongtian stepped on his shoe nails and his heels were just hanging on his heels. It hurts so much that he doesn't know if he has broken skin and bleeding.
This kick is really cruel... It seems that this game is not easy to play, even at your own home court...
