Chapter 303 Mourinho takes a fancy to Lin Feng

“Who are those people? Why did they come to our training base?”

The Chelsea players who were in training also noticed the sudden appearance of the National Olympic Team. Many of them stopped training and gathered together to discuss.

“It seems like they are our next warm-up match opponents. They all look like a bunch of little brats!”

“No wonder the boss wants to keep so many of his main players on the bench. I feel like we don’t need any main players to play against them. Just pure substitutes will be enough!”

Even Chelsea’s substitute players are all outstanding players from various countries. They have rich experience in professional leagues and have appearances in the league and even the Champions League.

So they do have reason to look down on their opponents, after all, their opponents’ resumes are far worse than theirs.

The so-called World Youth Championship champions are just so-so in their eyes. Maybe when this group of people are no longer in their golden age and come to compete with them again, they may look up to them, but for now, forget it!

“I think Robben alone is enough to deal with these brats!”

“I agree. I bet that the opponent will not be able to defend against Robben’s breakthrough!”

Robben, who was praised by Chelsea’s substitute players, had a proud look on his face and glanced at Lin Feng who was walking in the middle of the team.

Except for a few players who studied abroad such as Lin Feng, he had never heard of the rest of the National Olympic Team and didn’t care about them at all.

The only person he really cares about is Lin Feng!
You are the European Golden Boy, right?

I want to see how strong you are!
Lin Feng noticed something and followed the other person’s line of sight, and saw Robben giving him a cold and hostile look.

He felt a little puzzled. He had no connection with Robben and had never dealt with him before. He didn’t know where this guy’s hostility came from!
What Lin Feng didn’t know was that when the first Golden Boy Award was presented, Robben was once very close to this honor.

But in the end he lost to his compatriot and teammate Rafael van der Vaart by a narrow margin and missed the Golden Boy Award.

Since then, due to his own ups and downs in form and age restrictions, Robben never had the chance to win this honor again, which has become a great regret in his heart.

There are many other stars who have the same regret, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, who finished second to Rooney in 04, and Kaka, who finished third to Van der Vaart and Robben in 03.

Due to age restrictions, these players may only have one chance to compete for the Golden Childhood, and if they miss it, they will never have it again!
Compared to them, Lin Feng’s journey was so smooth!
When he was less than 18 years old, he easily won the honor as he wished by relying on the MVP of the World Youth Championship and the outstanding performance after transferring to Inter Milan. Within a year, he received honors that most players only have one chance to get in their lifetime – World Youth Championship champion + MVP and Golden Boy Award.

I don’t know how many players have been envious and jealous of this!
Robben was also envious, even jealous, and wished he could replace him.

But if that were all, there wouldn’t be any hostility towards Lin Feng.

The reason why he was hostile to Lin Feng was mainly because he heard from his agent that half a year ago Mourinho had expressed to Abramovich his desire to introduce Lin Feng. In exchange, he would be sold to Inter Milan by Chelsea as a bonus for Lin Feng’s transfer to fill the vacancy left by Inter Milan’s left winger Martins after he was abducted by Newcastle.

Although the transfer was eventually ruined by Abramovich’s behavior of chasing stars at public expense, Chelsea’s performance in the past half season has proved that Mourinho was right and Abramovich was wrong. The players he bought during the summer transfer window had no effect at all.

So when the summer transfer window opens this year, Chelsea will most likely continue to make an offer to Inter Milan.

Robben is a very proud man. Even if he really wants to leave Chelsea, he will take the initiative to seek a transfer instead of being traded as a bargaining chip.

That’s a humiliation to him!
Lin Feng, who didn’t know the inside story, just felt that the other party was inexplicable.

Not all people on Chelsea’s side are hostile. Head coach Mourinho and CEO Kenyon both expressed a warm welcome to the Olympic team’s visit.

The two not only led the National Olympic Team to visit and explain Chelsea’s training base, but also presented Chelsea uniforms to the player representatives of the National Olympic Team and took photos with them.

Originally, the representative sent by the Time and Space National Olympic Team was Chen Tao, and the photo of him and Mourinho came from this. Later, after observing his performance on the field, Mourinho praised him highly and publicly invited him to try out at Chelsea.

It’s a pity that due to obstruction from the club, this overseas study trip was ultimately unsuccessful. Chen Tao missed opportunities one after another and did not complete his overseas study until he retired, which made many fans sigh.

This time, the representative sent by the National Olympic Team was no longer Chen Tao, but Lin Feng.

To be honest, Lin Feng didn’t really want to be the representative, because accepting a jersey given by the other party with his identity was actually a little bit sensitive.

If some unscrupulous media outlet cut out the beginning and the end and reported this out of context.

Those who knew the whole story knew that this was a friendly exchange between the National Olympic Team and Chelsea, while those who didn’t know thought he was flirting with Chelsea!
But his teammates couldn’t refuse, and Chelsea’s hospitality was hard to refuse, so Lin Feng had no choice but to do it with reluctance!

When presenting the jersey and taking photos, Lin Feng felt that there was something wrong with the look in Mourinho’s eyes when he looked at him.

It feels like the mother-in-law has chosen her son-in-law, and her eyes reveal eagerness.

“Lin, I look forward to your performance in the next game!”

But Mourinho also knew what to say in different occasions. After presenting the jersey, he just shook hands with Lin Feng, said a few words briefly, and left.

This made Lin Feng feel relieved. Fortunately, there was no scene of asking him to put on the jersey on the spot, otherwise it would be really embarrassing!

To be honest, as a young player, it is a great honor to be appreciated by a famous football coach like Mourinho.

Of course, for them it is something worth boasting about, because it means that the other party affirms your strength.

But at a time when the relationship between Mourinho and Abramovich is already tense, Lin Feng is extremely reluctant to come to Chelsea and wade into this muddy water.

He must be mentally ill to give up his job as the boss of Inter Milan and come to Chelsea to suffer this bully.

Putting aside other things, will the local gangs obey him after he arrives?
Is it possible for Lampard to give up his position as the team’s leader?

With the way Chelsea plays now, any attacking midfielder on the field will be useless. Even Drogba on the striker has to cover for Lampard. If he comes, he will only be reduced to working for Lampard.

Therefore, Lin Feng had no interest in joining Chelsea. Compared with Chelsea, he would even rather try Arsenal, Chelsea’s neighbor to the north.

……

First comes courtesy, then force. After the friendly exchanges before the game, all that remains is a real fight between the two sides on the court!

On February 2th, it was a rare sunny day in London.

Although the temperature is still not high, the highest outdoor temperature during the day is only about 7 or 8 degrees. But for the Olympic team players who have been suffering from continuous rainy weather since arriving in the UK, this is already a rare good weather!
Thanks to the improved weather and the lack of psychological burden, the morale of the National Olympic team was quite good before the game.

During the pre-match warm-up session, after completing the warm-up, everyone played a shooting competition on the court.

At the beginning, only one goalkeeper is assigned to guard the goal, and the rest of the people take turns to shoot to see who scores more goals.

Everyone was eager to show their skills in front of so many fans, but they didn’t expect that Zeng Cheng, who was in charge of goalkeeping, seemed to have a cheat code. He saved nine out of ten shots, making all the players of the National Olympic Team return home empty-handed!

“This backup goalkeeper is good! Where does he play? Why haven’t I seen him before?”

The Chinese fans who came to Stamford Bridge to watch the game were all pleasantly surprised to see Zeng Cheng’s good performance.

Among the goalkeepers of the National Olympic Team, Wang Dalei is the most famous and the strongest.

Wang Dalei started in most of the National Olympic Team’s previous games, resulting in fans not paying enough attention to other goalkeepers.

In addition, Zeng Cheng was not a main player in the Wuhan team at that time, and his appearance frequency in the Chinese Super League was not high, so it was difficult for fans to pay attention to his presence.

Previously, many people felt a little confused about why Krauchen included such a little-known goalkeeper in the big list, and felt that his level was not worthy of the National Olympic Team.

But after seeing Zeng Cheng exclaim in amazement at his performance-style save, they realized that this young goalkeeper really has something.

I just don’t know how this German old man Krauchen managed to dig out such talents from the corners. He can pay attention to people who have hardly played in the Chinese Super League. It’s really outrageous!
“Get out of the way, let me do it. You guys are a bunch of losers, and it’s obvious that you are not cut out to be strikers!”

Seeing his teammates getting frustrated one after another, Gao Lin laughed and pushed away the teammates who were blocking him, and came to Zeng Cheng in a domineering manner.

He wanted to give it a try and see how powerful the other party was!
Seeing Gao Lin appear with the ball, Zeng Cheng’s attitude obviously became more serious!
In fact, for a goalkeeper, if the opponent shoots outside the penalty area and there is no one in the penalty area to interfere with his vision, it is not particularly difficult to make a save. It is definitely not as difficult as a penalty kick!
However, it would still be difficult to save the ball when encountering an expert who is good at shooting, because these people’s shots are not only at tricky angles, but also very powerful, which will not leave him much time to react.

Gao Lin is not a big talker. Although everyone has been teasing him for liking to masturbate, Gao Lin’s shooting skills have actually been steadily improving over the years.

Although there is still a big gap between him and the top shooters, it is already a first-class level in China!

Zeng Cheng tried his best, but failed to save Gao Lin’s first shot.

Gao Lin’s first shot went straight to the blind corner. Not only was the angle tricky, but the speed was also incredibly fast. Zeng Cheng only felt a shadow flash by, and he had just made a move when the ball went in!

After scoring the goal, Gao Lin turned around and spread his hands to everyone, as if to say:
The proud look of “How about it, now you know how powerful I am!”

“Come on, Xiao Zeng. Don’t give in to this kid just because he has more experience. Show us your true abilities!”

“You’ve never given in to us before, so you can’t be partial to one and ignore the other!”

“As long as you can save his next goal, I’ll treat you to a meal after the game!”

Seeing Gao Lin’s show-off look, the others immediately became unhappy and started to cheer for Zeng Cheng.

Encouraged by his teammates, Zeng Cheng nodded heavily and his attitude became more serious.

Seeing the other party’s attitude, Gao Lin put away his playful attitude and had to get serious.

There are so many people watching. It would be so embarrassing if the ball didn’t go in!

He had just hit the ball towards the upper left corner, but now seeing Zeng Cheng’s position had moved slightly, he immediately changed his strategy and aimed at the upper right corner.

A true top shooter must be able to shoot with both hands!
Gao Lin, full of confidence, completed the shot with his left foot. The angle of the ball was equally tricky, but the speed was slightly slower than that of his right foot!
And just this little bit gave Zeng Cheng the opportunity to react.

Being on guard, he quickly pushed off the ground and jumped into the air, stretched out his long arms in the air, and lifted the ball over the crossbar with one hand!
Oh oh!

There was a cry of surprise from the stands, and then people started applauding.

“Well done, Xiao Zeng!”

“Nice jump!”

“Haha, Gao Lin, are you still showing off? Have you been sanctioned?”

After seeing this result, the National Olympic Team immediately took advantage of Gao Lin’s misfortune.

It’s not that they are targeting Gao Lin, it’s just that this kid is too despicable. He is the kind of person who will start a dyeing factory if he is given a little color. If he is not suppressed, he will become lawless!

“Ahem, well, I just made a mistake, this ball doesn’t count, let’s try again!”

Gao Lin used a tactical cough to cover up his embarrassment and generously said he would give the opponent another chance.

It was obvious that he had failed in the challenge, but he still wanted to continue the challenge and even said with a shameless face that he would give others a chance.

After hearing what he said, everyone else was speechless!
It turns out that only you, Gao Datou, can do such a thing!
However, it was not known whether he was nervous or his old illness came back, but just when everyone thought Gao Lin was going to give everyone a hard time, he suddenly had a big bowel movement.

He was ready to shoot, but the ball flew directly into the stands.

Zeng Cheng in front of the goal was a little dumbfounded, subconsciously thinking that the other side was letting the game go:
As expected, there are still a lot of good people. If Brother Gao didn’t let me go, I might not be able to catch him!
But Gao Lin’s teammates behind him didn’t think so. After seeing Gao Lin kick the ball away, everyone couldn’t help but burst out laughing!

“Hahaha, as expected of you!”

“As the name suggests, Gao Lin, Gao Feiji!”

“I said Gao Lin is the best shooter in our team. No one has any objection now, right?”

The Chelsea players who were warming up in the other half of the field couldn’t help but look back curiously when they heard the movement from the Olympic team.

Although I don’t know what the other party is laughing at, I can feel the relaxed atmosphere in the other team.

Although it had nothing to do with them, it made many Chelsea players feel unhappy.

Humph, just laugh as much as you want. Once the game starts, you won’t be able to laugh anymore!
