Chapter 275: The eve of the battle at Tianwang Mountain, fireworks feast in West LondonThe home team's locker room at Anfield was silent. A draw with Chelsea at home was actually a good result for Liverpool this season. Of course, it is a pity that because of the draw in this game, Liverpool will completely bid farewell to next season's European war. I can’t participate in any of the Champions League, Europa League, or UEFA Champions League competitions! Of course, the same goes for Chelsea. Because of the draw, the suspense of the championship will be left to the next game four days later, when the Blues will face Leicester City at Stamford Bridge. "Jiang" Zuma put his arm around Jiang Yuan's shoulders and said, "Don't read the media comments, they don't understand football!" "Um" Jiang Yuan nodded and put his phone back in the cabinet. Zuma thought Jiang Yuan was reading the media comments after the game, because Jiang Yuan always did this after the game. However, what Jiang Yuan was reading on his mobile phone today was not media comments, but something more important than media comments. The wind-blown boy coaches 16 national Olympic teams! "Don't lie, I can see you're nervous"
Zuma didn't buy Jiang Yuan's account, and of course Jiang Yuan didn't intend to explain anything here. It's true that everyone is a good teammate, but there's no need to say everything. Snapped! After finishing the interview, Mourinho walked into the locker room and saw that all the players were dejected. As the head coach, he was naturally very dissatisfied. "Hey, what are you all doing? What's the meaning of no one speaking? Are you dumb?" “We didn’t play…” Terry stood up from his bench to speak, but before he could finish his words, Mourinho pushed him back onto the bench. The Portuguese coach looked around the locker room and asked, "Did we lose?" "We didn't lose, so there's no need for you to be so dejected. How are you going to face Leicester City in this state?" "Look forward!" "Look forward!" "Look forward!" …… Dongqiudi - Chelsea vs. Leicester City, the battle of the Premier League, who will win the Barclays Cup?

…… Chelsea's management was very quick. As soon as the scandal between Manchester United and Jiang Yuan broke out, Marina, the club's shareholder and transfer director, met with Jiang Yuan for a talk. "Mr. Jiang, please take a seat." Marina motioned for Jiang Yuan to sit on the chair in front of her. As a member of the club's management, she had an acquired dignity and elegance. Coupled with the extremely gorgeous decoration of the shareholders' office on the third floor, Jiang Yuan, who was wearing a training suit and training shorts, felt out of place here. "Good afternoon, ma'am." Jiang Yuan took two pieces of paper on the table and wiped the sweat off his body. He was called here just after finishing training. To be honest, Jiang Yuan was still a little embarrassed. "You and I both work for the club, there's no need to be so restrained, just be casual." Marina smiled, put her elbows on the table, and crossed her hands in front of her: "Jiang, I can hear rumors about you and Manchester United everywhere recently..." "cough cough" Marina's meaningful words made Jiang Yuan sweat profusely: "Yeah, I've heard that too." "I would like to know your interest in Manchester United" While speaking, Marina's eyes were fixed on Jiang Yuan. There seemed to be a strong penetrating power in her gaze. When Jiang Yuan looked into Marina's eyes, he always felt at a loss. However, Mendes had already thought of the words for him, and Jiang Yuan only needed to slightly adjust them according to the situation: "Well... Madam, I must admit that Manchester United is very attractive to me. I hope to play for them. Chelsea has the same appeal to me. Manchester United and Chelsea, these two clubs are equally important to me." "Um……" After thinking carefully for a while, Jiang Yuan made a "a little bit" gesture with his hand: "Of course, Chelsea is definitely a little bit more attractive to me." "Ha ha" Marina laughed: "I know what you mean" She opened a drawer and took out a thick document. "This is the new contract given to you after discussion among the club's top management. But I need to tell you that this new contract was prepared before the rumors about you and Manchester United started." What Marina meant was that the club's top management attached great importance to Jiang Yuan and treated him very well, so there was no need for Jiang Yuan to leave Chelsea. Jiang Yuan didn't say anything. He put his right hand on the document and tried to pull it over. Marina held down the folder with her index finger, which made Jiang Yuan a little confused. Although he was strong, he couldn't pull it hard unless Marina let go, right? "Um...Ms. Marina?" Fortunately, Marina didn't make things difficult for herself. After pausing for 5 or 6 seconds, she finally stretched out her hand. Jiang Yuan seized the opportunity, quickly picked up the document, sat back in his chair and looked through it. The paper was all in English, but for Jiang Yuan, who had been in London for almost a year, understanding the English was not a difficult task. Jiang Yuan took a rough look. Chelsea wanted to renew his contract until 2021. The basic weekly salary was 26 pounds, and bonuses were all there, but... Jiang Yuan looked up at Marina: "No penalty for breach of contract?" "certainly" Marina smiled: "In La Liga, every player's contract must have a penalty clause, but this is the UK, and the FA does not have relevant regulations."
hiss-- Jiang Yuan frowned and took a deep breath. Without penalty, he would lose the initiative to transfer. Like now, he has a 1 million euro penalty clause. Manchester United can go directly to Jiang Yuan without asking Chelsea's opinion, just like what Chelsea did to Porto before. As long as they are willing to pay the penalty, Jiang Yuan's club cannot restrict him. But if Jiang Yuan signed this new contract, he would lose the protection of the penalty clause, and losing the protection of the penalty clause would mean that Jiang Yuan would hand over the final decision on the transfer to the club. If Chelsea doesn't want Jiang Yuan to leave, then Jiang Yuan can't leave. But... this new contract is really tempting! As long as the contract is signed, Jiang Yuan's basic weekly salary will become 26 pounds starting from the weekend after next week. This is the only top salary in the entire Chelsea team, and even in the entire Premier League, this weekly salary level is the highest - on par with Rooney of Manchester United. There is also an additional clause in the contract that if Jiang Yuan's value exceeds 1 million euros, his weekly salary will reach 32 pounds. In addition, if Jiang Yuan fulfills this contract, that is, plays for Chelsea until the summer window of 2021, he will directly receive a loyalty bonus of 4000 million pounds. Looking at the Premier League, this treatment is the best. The only drawback is that there is no penalty. Without the penalty, Jiang Yuan always feels a lack of security. "Um...Ms. Marina." Jiang Yuan looked up at Marina who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Do we have a chance to discuss this penalty?" "Of course!" Marina smiled, then stood up and sat next to Jiang Yuan. "We can talk about it, but there is a prerequisite." Jiang Yuan was overjoyed: "What's the premise?" Marina reached out and lifted Jiang Yuan's sweaty training short-sleeved shirt, revealing the strong and well-developed muscles on his abdomen. Because he had just finished training, the sweat on his skin was still clearly visible, and with the light in the room, it reflected and sparkled: "Top professional players like you have muscles that are really incomparable to ordinary people." "Cough cough!" Jiang Yuan jumped up from his chair, holding the documents and ran to the door. He said goodbye to Marina after keeping some distance: "Ma'am, I am very interested in this contract, but I need to discuss it with my agent first. You know, I am just a football player, and contracts are not my strong point." …… On the other hand, after Manchester United defeated Norwich 1-0 away, the official announced that Dutch coach Van Gaal will leave the team after the end of the season. As soon as the news came out, Manchester United was pushed to the forefront by major media newspapers. The club had to hold a press conference for this purpose. Attending the conference was Manchester United's transfer director Matt Judge. Judge admitted at the press conference that he chose to terminate his contract with Van Gaal due to the team's poor performance. In order to break up with the Dutch coach, Manchester United will pay a termination fee of 500 million pounds, and of course a championship bonus of 40 pounds. "Louis (van Gaal) deserves it. Although we won the FA Cup, the league results were not good." Judge said so. "So who will be your new coach next season?" Facing the reporter's questioning, Matt Judge's answer was very simple: "It's not Van Gaal anyway." From what Judge said, it seems that the Dutch coach and Manchester United management are not very happy.
Of course, this press conference will definitely not end hastily. "Mr. Matt, Mr. Matt, I have another question. Last week, Metro reported about your affair with Jiang. Is this true?" "..." Matt Judge was silent for a while, then nodded: "Although I don't know how they (referring to the Metro newspaper) learned about our transfer news, I admit that we are indeed interested in Jiang. Everyone's eyes are bright. Jiang is a very good player. Good players should stay in good clubs. I think he is very suitable to play for Manchester United." "Sir, I heard that Chelsea is willing to revise the contract with Jiang. If the revision is completed, Jiang's contract may no longer contain a penalty clause..." "well" Judge raised his eyebrows: "Jiang and Chelsea haven't changed their contract yet, right? We will have a chance. Unless Jiang admits in person that he doesn't want to come to Manchester United, we won't give up." "But yesterday, a Chelsea reporter reported that Jiang and his teammates said he would not come to Manchester United..." Judge expressionless: "I don't believe it" …… The Premier League season is still a week away, and the La Liga season is not over yet, but the championship has already been announced. In the 1th round, Barcelona beat Granada 38-3 away, leading Real Madrid by 0 points with one more game to play, and won the La Liga championship this season. After the training, Jiang Yuan, who was watching the whole game in the Cobham canteen, immediately sent his condolences to Casemiro. Casemiro's mentality is pretty good. When he learned that he had already lost the championship before even playing the last round, he said: Barcelona is indeed very strong. We didn't seize the opportunity this season. We must win the championship next season! [There’s really no need to be sad, you still have the Champions League in two weeks! ] [Haha, Jiang, you are right. But... we almost won the championship this season, you must keep working hard. I heard that Leicester City is ridiculously strong, I don't know what's going on, I think the total value of their players is quite low] Casemiro has already missed the league title, so he naturally doesn't want his good friend Jiang Yuan to miss the title as well. In the 15-16 season, it was much more difficult to win the La Liga title than the Premier League title. Of course, we can't compare them this way, because La Liga is a duo of Real Madrid and Barcelona, and the Premier League is a little different. The characteristic of this league is that the bottom team sometimes suddenly explodes and kills the top team. In the 6 games that Leicester City lost this season, one of them was a loss to the leader Aston Villa. However, it was the beginning of the season and no one realized the horror of Leicester City, so there was no media coverage of this matter. We will win the Premier League, just like you will win the Champions League Jiang Yuan typed these words slowly, sent them and put the phone aside. "National team teammate?" Terry, who was sitting across the table, looked at Jiang Yuan with a smile on his face. As the captain, he knew that Jiang Yuan often chatted with his national team teammates on his mobile phone, and Jiang Yuan seemed to enjoy it very much. "No, it's a friend from Real Madrid. Barcelona just won the championship and I have to comfort him." "Wow, you have friends in Real Madrid, why didn't I know about it?" Hazard looked at Jiang Yuan beside him, the salad dressing on the corner of his mouth still unlicked. "Carlos Casemiro, you should know him, he was loaned to Porto from Real Madrid, I have known him for a long time" When it comes to Casemiro, Hazard was stunned for a long time and didn't know anything. Zouma, who was sitting opposite him, reacted: "I know him, the Brazilian with a slightly round face. He is very good at intercepting in the backcourt and is a good defensive midfielder." Terry nodded and agreed with what Zouma said: "That kind of player has a very high ceiling. He has secured a starting position just after returning to Real Madrid on loan, which is enough to prove his ability." "Hey, why do you all know this and I'm the only one who doesn't know?" Hazard put his fork back on his plate and marveled at how well-informed Terry and Zouma were.
“Because you don’t like watching the game” Jiang Yuan pointed out the problem in one sentence. What a joke Hazard is. He has such great talent and skills, but his interest in football is not like that of a professional player at all. During the previous La Liga match between Real Madrid and Madrid, the entire Chelsea team, including the support staff, were watching the game. Only Hazard and Azpilicueta were hiding in a corner playing Yahtzee, a dice game with gambling elements. Hazard had asked Jiang Yuan and Zouma to play with him many times, but neither Zouma nor Jiang Yuan could appreciate the fun of the game. "no no no" Hazard shook his head: "I've said before that I prefer watching football in the stands to playing on the field, but unfortunately, I can't get such a high salary for watching football in the stands. By the way, Jiang, do you want to change the contract with the club?" Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment. Hazard must have had a purpose in raising this question. However, since they were all teammates, Jiang Yuan did not hide anything about this matter. "That's right, but I haven't agreed yet." "Um" Hazard nodded and said: "My performance this season is too bad. I have to play better next season and try to change my contract. Making more money is the real thing." Terry looked up at Hazard, then glanced at Zouma, and finally his gaze lingered on Jiang Yuan: "Rather than talking about the pound, we will compete with Leicester City for the championship the day after tomorrow. Aren't you nervous?" “I’ve already won the championship.” Terry spread his hands, and his meaning was very clear. Players with league championship experience can often show more composure than other players when facing this kind of game. This is the confidence brought by experience and strength. After saying that, Hazard and the other two turned their eyes to Jiang Yuan at the same time. "What do you want to say?" "Jiang, you are the only one here who has never won the Premier League championship" "Hey, what's the point? Worry about yourselves. I'm calm!" "Wowowo, I'm anxious, I'm anxious!" "Fuck, I'm not in a hurry!" …… This season's Premier League decisive battle is about to begin. On Twitter, the popularity of the match between Chelsea and Leicester City rose to the second place in just 6 hours, and the search index ranked second only to the British government's Brexit referendum plan. The game time is 3 pm in London, which is actually quite awkward because Leicester City is about 150 km away from London. For the team bus, 150 km will take at least 3 hours. According to research by sports experts, driving for more than an hour and a half before a game can affect the players' cerebellum, leading to a decline in their athletic performance. In order to ensure that the players are in good competitive condition on the day of the game, the entire Leicester City team, including 1 logistics staff, arrived at the London Hilton Bankside Hotel at 38 o'clock the night before the game. Tonight, Leicester City players and coaching staff will rest in the hotel. I can only say that Leicester City is still too young. They actually dared to come to London the day before such a championship battle. They really thought too kindly of the fans. At 11:40 . London time, there was not a single car on the road next to the Hilton Riverside Hotel. It was filled with people, at least seventy or eighty people, and half of them were wearing Chelsea jerseys. "Chelsea, hey! Chelsea, hey hey!" Chelsea's die-hard fans sang and danced outside the stadium. Afterwards, a young man wearing a baseball cap took out a ZIPPO lighter from his pocket. In front of him was a huge firework, roughly estimated to be at least 70cm high. Fireworks in London are very expensive, and this firework costs about 200 pounds or more. "wowwww!"
"wwwww!" At the urging of the fans next to him, the boy in the baseball cap lit the big firework. Two seconds later. "boom!" "boom!" "Boom!" The shells shot straight into the sky and exploded on the rooftop of the Hilton Hotel. At the moment of the explosion, an increasingly large circle of fireworks appeared. It's a pity for the Leicester City players that they had to endure magical attacks from the opponent's fans the day before the game. The fireworks were very big and the sound was very loud, but unfortunately there was only one and it was gone in just two seconds. At this time, a 2014 sports version of the Range Rover slowly drove over from the far end of the road. When the trunk was opened, it was filled with firecrackers of all kinds. "Snapped!" A man who looked to be in his 40s walked down from the driver's seat and said, "You don't have enough fireworks? Come and get some. The fireworks from the UK are rubbish. We have to import them!" Chelsea fans on the road immediately rushed over and moved all the fireworks from the uncle's trunk onto the road. The old man put his hands in his pockets and wore sunglasses on his head, looking very cool: "These firecrackers are all produced in Jiang's hometown. We are Chelsea fans. We must support our players while playing against Leicester City." Hearing this, everyone turned the fireworks over to the bottom and saw the same "Made in China" logo, with a sentence written in Chinese below: "Fireworks, fire and moisture proof", and a GB/T191-2008. I don't understand it, but it works. As for the fans, they are really unambiguous when it comes to supporting the players of their own club. "Hey!" At some point, the uncle had a small loudspeaker in his hand: "Guys, Chelsea is now at the most critical moment. Our opponents are about to compete with us for the league championship this season. As Chelsea fans, we need to stand up when the team needs us the most." "We have to fight alongside the team!" "wowww!" Everyone took out their lighters and almost simultaneously lit the Chinese-imported fireworks placed on the ground. boom!Boom! Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang! call out! At 5:15 am on May 12th, there will be a fireworks display in West London. …… (End of this chapter)
