Chapter 458 You only have 4 goals so farClick, click, click!
Jiang Yuan returned to the familiar press conference room at Stamford Bridge. Today was the match between Chelsea and Bayern, so there were naturally more reporters in the audience.
"Congratulations Jiang, you helped the team tie the game after coming on as a substitute. Not only that, you also helped the Chinese national team enter the World Cup three days ago."
"Oh, thanks, I think this has been a very good week for me."
Jiang Yuan smiled.
Although we tied with our opponent at home, considering the actual situation, the score is actually quite good.
"Bayern is a very strong opponent"
Jiang Yuan added.
"We saw that you played a very wonderful direct free kick in the second half, but apart from that direct free kick, you also missed a good chance. According to your level, you should have been able to seize that opportunity?"
"Um...I admit I may have made some mistakes."
The reporters suddenly began to criticize Jiang Yuan's performance, which caught Jiang Yuan off guard.
The reporter looked down at the note, then raised his head again: "Jiang, your current Champions League goal tally is 4, and the player ranked first has already scored 6 goals..."
Before the reporter finished speaking, Jiang Yuan's expression had already turned serious.
He was thinking about how to respond to the reporter's words.
"In the 15-16 season, you won the Champions League Golden Boot, and in the 16-17 season, you won the Silver Boot. However, judging from the current situation this season, you are not yet in the top 5 of the scorer list."
"..."
Jiang Yuan had a headache. This reporter was obviously here to stir up trouble. He only cared about the fact that he had scored 4 goals but didn't say a word about the fact that he had one less game.
“Let’s not rush it.”
Jiang Yuan opened his right palm and held it in front of himself protectively: "Let's not worry, okay? I know I'm behind now, but there's nothing I can do. I can't guarantee that I can score a lot of goals in every game. But now there are only three games, I don't think we can jump to conclusions, okay? Thank you, thank you."
"Cristiano said in an interview after the last game that you were his rival for the Golden Boot. What are you going to say to that?"
"Wait!"
Jiang Yuan raised his hand: "You said Cristiano sees me as a competitor for the Golden Boot. I don't understand why you still say I can't be in the top 5? Are you reporters going to take up all the top five in the scorer list?"
"I'm talking about now"
"Yes, I know it's now, but it's only been three rounds and the group stage is only halfway through. Do you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Yuan would not normally speak like this. He was indeed influenced by Mourinho. Of course, his temper was also a factor.
It's unlikely that Jiang Yuan wouldn't be anxious when the reporter said that.
……
"Fuck!"
Back in the locker room, Jiang Yuan handed his coat to the equipment manager, and his expression did not look very good.
"You've been targeted by reporters again!"
Hazard sat on the bench, pointing at Jiang Yuan with his hand holding a piece of toast.
"How do you know?"
"look"
Hazard pointed to the big screen hanging in the locker room, which showed a reporter interviewing Tuchel.
Jiang Yuan hadn't been to Stamford Bridge for a few days and had forgotten that he could watch the live broadcast on the screen in the locker room.
"You should scold those reporters, they are all idiots!"
Ibrahimovic walked in front of Jiang Yuan with his bare chest, swinging his clothes with his right hand. When the screen turned to the reporter, he suddenly threw Ibrahimovic up.
Snapped!
As a result, at the moment when Ibrahimovic's jersey hit the screen, the camera turned to Tuchel.
"oh"
"Hahaha!"
"wowww!"
The players in the locker room started to make noises, and Pogba pointed directly at Ibrahimovic: "Come on, if you have any opinions about Thomas, you can say it directly"
"It was a mistake, it was a mistake! Fuck!"
Ibrahimovic picked up the clothes on the ground. Obviously, he didn't expect the camera to switch so quickly.
"Hey, Jiang, come here, let's go out and scold those reporters together"
Ibrahimovic pointed at the bald reporter in the camera and said viciously.
"No! Zlatan, please don't change the subject, okay?"
Zouma and Pogba came up together, and Ibrahimovic quickly stood up and pushed Pogba back: "No, I'm talking about business, okay? Business, Jiang was targeted during the interview, we can't let that reporter go"
Pogba grabbed Jiang Yuan's arm and pretended to take Jiang Yuan out of the locker room: "Let's go and beat them up"
"Ha ha"
Hazard said while eating toast: "You should remind those reporters that you missed a game"
"This is useless. They must know that Jiang Shao will play a game."
Terry, like Ibrahimovic, was shirtless.
Although he did not play in this game, as Chelsea's old captain, Terry wanted to celebrate with his teammates.
"If Jiang said he played one less game, those reporters would definitely ask if Jiang could guarantee to score two goals in the second round. I can guess what those idiots would say."
Terry is the one who is experienced.
"What should I do?"
Hazard spread his hands.
“Two ways!”
Terry staggered to the middle of the locker room, and the players' eyes slowly turned to Terry.
"One, you just need to leave right now."
"xuuu!!!"
"John, this is not an option at all!"
Not only Pogba, but other players in the locker room were not very satisfied with Terry's method.
Suddenly leaving the scene when facing reporters' questions, what is the difference between this and showing weakness?
"Don't worry, I still have a second solution!"
Terry pushed Pogba back, then mysteriously extended his second finger and faced Jiang Yuan.
"You won the Golden Boot this season"
The players' eyes turned to Jiang Yuan who was standing at the door.
Pogba gave a thumbs up: "Oh, you are right, this is indeed a good idea"
……
The Times - Tuchel said Chelsea are confident of achieving their goal of a top-four finish in the Champions League this season.
Premier League Table for 2017-2018
1. Man United, 21 points
2. Chelsea, 19 points
3. Man City, 18 points
4. LiverPool, 16 points
5. Arsenal, 14 points
Karina, editor-in-chief of The Times: Faced with the siege of the two Manchester giants, how can Chelsea break out?
Football Expert: Jiang Yuan scored 2 goals in 4 games and was questioned by reporters about his performance in the Champions League this season.
[Awesome reporters, 2 goals in 4 games are also questioned by them?] [If I were Jiang Yuan, I would go up and punch those reporters, brother, am I doing the right thing?]
[In Jiang Yuan, you can even see that he averages 2 goals per game but is questioned by reporters]
[But Salah is really awesome, he scored 3 goals in 6 games. I remember Salah was from Chelsea before, right? Did Mourinho sell him?]
[Mourinho can't always make the right transfers. Wasn't it great enough to get Jiang Yuan from Porto for 2000 million? Now he can't even add another zero.]
[However, Chelsea's form this season is indeed relatively stable. They played poorly against Bayern, but they still managed to draw in the end.]
[It’s useless. There are many strong teams in the Champions League this season. Liverpool has already risen.]
[Chelsea's goal this season is still to win the Premier League title. Manchester City, Manchester United, and Liverpool are all incredibly strong this season]
[What's the use? Chelsea is in ruins this season]
……
After the Champions League group match with Bayern, club shareholder Abramovich had a private chat with Tuchel.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
During this conversation, Abramovich made it clear that they want to compete for the Premier League title this season, and of course reach the top four of the Champions League. Neither of these two goals can be lost.
"Yes, Mr. Roman."
Tuchel looked a little embarrassed: "You know, Manchester United, Manchester City, and Liverpool are all very strong this season. It will be very difficult for us to win the Premier League title."
Although this is true, Tuchel did express his thoughts through practical actions.
In the 9th round of the league, taking advantage of Manchester United's shocking defeat to newly promoted Huddersfield, Chelsea defeated Watford 4:3 and successfully returned to the top of the Premier League standings.
After the 9th round, the Premier League standings suddenly changed. Manchester United, which was originally in first place, dropped directly to third place, with Chelsea and Manchester City in first and second place respectively.
Karina, editor-in-chief of The Times: A brief analysis of how Chelsea broke through the siege of the two Manchester City giants through one game.
"Blue is the colour, football is the game~"
"We're all together, and winning is our aim~"
"..."
After returning to the top of the standings, Chelsea fans celebrated by parading around Stamford Bridge.
At 10 . the next day, or 5 . Beijing time, the Chinese national team's celebration parade for qualifying for the World Cup officially began.
The parade was broadcast live jointly by CCTV1 and CCTV5.
In the video, a bus carrying the Chinese men's football players started from the National Olympic Park South Road and began their parade celebration around the Fourth Ring Road.
"Through the live broadcast, we can see that there are a lot of Chinese national football team fans on the road. Most of them are wearing red clothes and are following the bus on the road."
"This is the first time that the Chinese men's national football team has entered the World Cup finals since the 02 World Cup in Japan and South Korea. It has been 15 years now, and it will be 16 years soon."
"We can see that the person standing on top of the parade vehicle is Mourinho, the Portuguese head coach of the Chinese national men's football team. Behind him are No. 10 player Wu Lei, No. 18 player Gao Lin, No. 4 player Jiang Zhipeng..."
The CCTV commentator introduced the coach and players of the Chinese team one by one. At this time, Mourinho stood at the front of the parade and waved to the fans on both sides.
“China is awesome!”
"Mourinho!"
"A famous coach is capable!"
"come on! Come on!"
The atmosphere was lively, Mourinho rested his hands on the guardrail with a smile on his face.
【Take off, fly, fly! ! ! ! 】
【come on! Come on! 】
[Damn, I should have gone to the scene earlier]
[There are so many people. Didn't they say that no one would watch if Jiang Yuan didn't come? Why are they all here? ]
[I heard that Jiang Yuan will have a video call with Zhang Yuning and Wei Shihao? ]
[Is this true? When will they connect to the microphone? Hurry up and call Xiao Jiang over. What are these people celebrating for?]
There are a lot of comments flying around at the top of the football emperor’s homepage.
A simple celebratory parade, but it means a lot to Chinese fans.
"Ding!"
Jiang Yuan received a message from Li Shubin on WeChat. Following Li Shubin's instructions, Jiang Yuan went to his laptop, downloaded some software with the help of Karimova, and then turned on the built-in camera of the laptop.
“Are you going to broadcast live?”
Karimova held Jiang Changhan in her arms and handed Jiang Yuan a plate of fruit platter.
"Reporter Interview"
Jiang Yuan explained that the live broadcast was completed under the guidance of Li Shubin.
At this moment, on the CCTV5 channel, on the left was Jiang Yuan’s national football team bus parading, and on the right was half of Jiang Yuan’s head.
"Oh, sorry sorry!"
Jiang Yuan turned over the notebook and made sure that his entire head was in the picture.
Football Emperor: Jiang Yuan will participate in a video link-up on CCTV5, come quickly!
The CCTV staff was very quick. As soon as Jiang Yuan adjusted the picture, He Wei's voice came out immediately.
"Jiang Yuan, you guys should have just finished the game against Watford yesterday, congratulations on scoring twice in the game."
"Thank you, thank you, haha"
"You sound really happy. Is it because of winning the game yesterday or because of this celebratory parade?"
“Both, but parades probably account for a slightly larger proportion.”
Jiang Yuan spoke more strictly: "It's mainly because I missed too many club competitions before. Otherwise, I could have gone to the parade. It's a pity."
“Video connection is actually not much different”
He Wei said.
Now many fans at the scene were waving at the bus while looking at their phones, pretending that Jiang Yuan was also on the parade bus.
Jiang Yuan's connection suddenly got stuck, but it wasn't a big deal, as the network was restored soon.
"Is the network back online? Well, Jiang Yuan, as the captain of the Chinese national football team, you almost carried the team into the World Cup. After the Asian qualifiers, do you have anything to say, to the fans or to your teammates?"
“Well, as for my teammates, I really want to thank them.”
Jiang Yuan's expression gradually became serious: "I know the process is difficult, but it is precisely because the process is difficult that we will be very happy when we succeed in the end. After playing against Australia last week, I said in the locker room that we should not only participate in the World Cup, but also play in the knockout stage."
“Oh, this is very difficult!”
"That's right, but if we go to Russia with the mentality of just participating in the group stage, I think we will fail in the end. We need to set our goals further."
"And... as for the fans, I really appreciate everyone's support, haha. To be honest, I was quite surprised on the day of the match at the Bird's Nest. The most shocking match I've ever encountered was the Champions League match against Real Madrid. The Bernabeu left a deep impression on me, but I don't think it was as good as the Bird's Nest in last week's Asian qualifiers. I am very grateful for the fans' support."
Jiang Yuan lowered his head slightly facing the camera.
"Okay, you just said that if you want to participate in the World Cup, you have to play in the knockout stage. The draw ceremony for the group stage of the World Cup in Russia will be held on December 12st. Is there any team you particularly want to meet?"
"Um……"
Jiang Yuan looked thoughtful: "The group stage is divided into tiers. We are in the fourth tier, so the teams we meet will definitely be stronger than us, especially the teams in the first tier."
"Yes, that's right. At present, all the teams in the first tier have been confirmed. They are Russia, Germany, Brazil, Portugal, Argentina, Belgium, Poland and France. Which team do you like to face the most among these teams?"
He Wei thought Jiang Yuan would talk about Russia.
As a result, Jiang Yuan came straight to the point of being ruthless.
"Well...if possible, I think Germany is a good opponent."
what?
