Chapter 133 Back to Turin
In Inter Milan's Pinettina training base, there is a small conference room next to Mourinho's office, where the coaching staff meetings are usually held.

If it's one of those big meetings with the whole team that includes players and even some staff, you have to go to the big room on the other side.

Needless to say, Mourinho and his coaches are discussing the arrangements for the next league game.

Not knowing what they were talking about, Mourinho didn't speak. He tapped the pen on the table regularly, nodded from time to time, and listened carefully to his assistant's speech.

"I think Zhu can continue to start. On the one hand, he performed very well in the last game, and he should be allowed to continue this scoring momentum.

Secondly, he is very familiar with the Turin team. I think it should not be a problem for him to score against his old club. "

"No, I disagree, Zhu Hantao is still a young player after all, I don't think his body can withstand such a high-intensity continuous battle.

Even out of love for him, he shouldn't be allowed to start consecutive games. "

"I don't agree either. There are loopholes in your opinion. Zhu may indeed be very familiar with the Turin team, but on the other hand, the coaches and players of the Torino team are also very familiar with Zhu's characteristics.

They don't know how powerful Zhu is. If we let Zhu start, wouldn't they make targeted defenses against Zhu? "

"Don't you think that Zhu and Zlatan cooperate very well in the frontcourt? Whether it is the usual training or the game against Panathinaikos, I think their two partners are a very good choice."

Assistant coach Giuseppe Baresi, known as the fitness coach, is actually not only responsible for the team's physical fitness management, but also undertakes some data analysis work, and even Faria who drives Mourinho, data analyst Giovanni Serra, who once coached Inter Milan's youth team, and the current first-team coach Bernazani, Villas-Boas and others gave speeches and stated their ideas one by one.

Regarding their views, Mourinho neither agreed nor opposed them. After they finished speaking, the Portuguese looked around and found one who hadn't spoken. "Sylvino, why didn't you express your own views?"

Silvino Lauro: ? ? ?
"José, I am a goalkeeper coach, on the issue of forward selection, do I also have to speak?"

"I want to hear your opinion. You can give us some different angles from the perspective of a goalkeeper." Mourinho said seriously.

"Okay then," Silvino thought for a while, "I have a certain understanding of these strikers in our team. From my point of view, I think Zhu Hantao will be an opponent that any goalkeeper would not want to face."

Mourinho nodded clearly, "I understand, so be it..."

……

Zhu Hantao is very happy. Although the head coach Mourinho has not yet announced the starting lineup, Zhu Hantao has entered the squad. Whether he will have the opportunity to play is another matter. In short, he can leave for Turin with the team.

Sitting on the club's bus with the Inter Milan team logo printed on its body, Zhu Hantao's heart had already flown back to Turin.

I used to live there every day, I didn’t feel much, and I always felt that this place was not good and that place was not good. In addition, I have only been away for a few months since I returned to China for the competition, but it seems that I have been away for a long time, and I miss it very much.

Balotelli, who was sitting next to Zhu Hantao, was listening to loud music with headphones on. Zhu Hantao couldn't stand it and elbowed Balotelli, "You're too loud. I want to squint for a while. Can you make it quieter?"

The voice in Balotelli's earphones was too loud, and he didn't hear what Zhu Hantao was saying at all. He blinked his big black eyes, "What did you say?"

Zhu Hantao pointed to Balotelli's earphones, "Don't you think it's noisy? I can hear it even when I'm next to you!"

"Ah? What are you talking about? I can't hear you!"

Forget it, Zhu Hantao gave up the treatment and waved his hand, "It's fine, it's fine, don't worry about it."

"Oh, that's fine." Balotelli continued to close his eyes and listen to the song.

Zhu Hantao:? ? ?
Can you hear me?You are not stupid, I am stupid!

Zhu Hantao had no choice. It seemed that he couldn't rest in the car. Looking at the scenery on the roadside outside the car window, his thoughts drifted far away.

Parents should be busy in the store at this time. I don’t know how the business in the store is doing recently. Every time they video call with them, they don’t talk about these things, they just care about all aspects of themselves.

The last time I went back to Turin, I just met them in a hurry, and I haven't seen them for another month. They must miss themselves very much.

In fact, it is true, obviously I have asked them to transfer the store, don't be too busy, opening a restaurant is so hard, and my income is enough to support my family.

But what did my dad say, "Playing football is your hobby, and it is also your profession now, we as parents have basically never cared about you, and your parents have always let you make your own decisions.

And opening a restaurant is the career of parents all their lives, so don't worry about us, okay? "

Zhu Zeyu told his son that, what else could Zhu Hantao say?Originally, I thought that Lao Zhu would take Mrs. Zhu, Ms. Lin Xiuyan, on a trip, not to mention traveling around the world. It would not be nice to go around Europe, and it was just a way for them to make up for the honeymoon they didn't have back then.

Since parents want to be busy, let them continue to be busy. It is true that they are still young, and it is impossible to let them be free so early. Zhu Hantao mentioned it once and never mentioned it again.

And those friends in the Turin team, Corini told Zhu Hantao to retire last year, and they will not retire this year, and they are not too young, so why not find another job, can the body still bear it when playing on the field?

Rossina should be more mature than before. As the captain, he needs to be more responsible, and he can't just know his own performance.

Coach De Biasi doesn't know if the club has bought him his favorite players during this transfer period, and he should still have a headache about how to line up.

When you see them during the game, you can give them a warm hug, and you can also chat with them after the game and talk about the current situation, but on the field, Zhu Hantao will definitely not show mercy.

The Nerazzurri's bus drove into Turin, Zhu Hantao saw the city's roads getting familiar, and suddenly felt a sense of peace of mind.

Is this the feeling of "going home"? I have been on this road, played football here when I was a child, and ran here in this park. The familiar scenery brought back memories of Zhu Hantao.

It's great, unconsciously, I have lived in this city for more than ten years, and I seem to have regarded Turin as my hometown.

Thinking of my previous life where I went to school and worked in different cities, I just got a little familiar with a city, and I have already set off for the next stop before leaving my mark. Even the hometown I grew up in is already blurred, only occasionally appearing dimly in my dreams.

Soon, Inter Milan arrived at the hotel that the club had arranged long ago. Tomorrow's game will start at [-]:[-] pm. It is necessary to come here one day in advance to check the status and get familiar with the venue.

That night, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the others thought that Zhu Hantao would go back home with head coach Mourinho on leave, but they didn't expect Zhu Hantao to stay in the hotel with everyone.

"Don't worry, wouldn't it be better to ask the coach for leave and go home after winning the game?" In the words, there was a kind of pride that Dayu had never entered the house after controlling the flood.

On Sunday, September 2008, 9, at the Olympic Stadium in Turin, more than 21 spectators came to the scene, almost filling the entire stadium.

They are not just watching this ordinary Serie A game, but also for a kid from Turin who is going home today.

"Good evening, viewers and friends, welcome to the Italian Serie A live broadcast by the sports channel, the third round, Torino's home game against the defending champion Inter Milan.

I'm Liu Jianhong, and what I'm going to explain to you tonight is Zhang Luzhang's guidance that everyone is familiar with. "

"Good evening, audience friends. Hey, I'm Zhang Lu."

"There are many things to watch in this game, and the time is also very friendly to our domestic audience. It starts on time at [-]:[-] p.m. Yanjing time."

"Yes, that's right. According to the starting roster announced before the game, Zhu Hantao, who grew up in Turin, will start the game again on behalf of the team. This will be the first time he will play against his old club. Last season, this young Inter Milan player won the Serie A Golden Boot in Turin."

"Can Zhu Hantao score goals in tonight's game, what kind of performance can he achieve, and whether Mourinho can lead the team to the first away victory in the league? Let us wait and see."

"Oh, the players from both sides are ready to enter the field, and I will take advantage of this time to introduce to the audience friends the list of 11 starting players from both sides for tonight's match.

First of all, the home team Turin. Their head coach De Biasi continued the previous tactical play, but the personnel have undergone a lot of changes, and they still play a 4-3-3 formation.

Goalkeeper Cereni, left back Pisano, central defender Pratali and Di Loreto partner, right back Diana. "

"Oh? The starting goalkeeper of the Turin team is still the familiar Cereni, and one of the defenders is a new player from the Turin team. This summer, Torino spent 300 million euros to introduce central defender Pratali from Empoli."

"The three are midfielders Corini, Paolo Zanetti and Saumel, and the three forwards are Rosina, Rolando Bianchi and Amoruso."

"Saumeel is a defensive midfielder from Austria, Amoruso was transferred from Reggina to Turin for 300 million euros, and Rolando Bianchi was introduced from Manchester City by Turin for 700 million euros."

"From this point of view, although the Torino team sold Zhu Hantao during the transfer period before this season, they did not spend less money on buying players, and they also invested in it with a heartless heart."

"To be honest, if we sold the only reliable scoring point in the team last season and didn't introduce some more powerful players, it will not be easy for the Torino team to avoid relegation this season."

At this moment, huge cheers erupted at the Torino Olympic Stadium. It turned out that the commentators were also introducing the starting players of both sides. When they introduced Inter Milan’s starting striker Zhu Hantao, the enthusiasm of the stands far exceeded that of other players.

"Welcome home! Zhu!"

"We love you forever!"

"But don't score goals tonight!"

If you listen carefully, you can vaguely hear these shouts to Zhu Hantao, and the love for Zhu Hantao is revealed in every line.

Zhu Hantao was also full of smiles, raised his hands and clapped, thanking the fans in the audience.

That's right, Zhu Hantao is more popular than the Turin fans who started today. As a kid who grew up in Turin, he scored 22 league goals for Turin last season. The lovely fans have not forgotten him.

"Oh? We heard the fans at the scene express a very warm welcome to Zhu Hantao. It seems that Zhu Hantao is still very popular in the city of Turin."

"Hey, so facing his old club, his familiar teammates, and so many fans who love him, will Zhu Hantao show mercy?"

"I haven't said anything about Inter Milan's starting lineup, but Mourinho has also set up a 4-3-3 lineup, and the goalkeeper is Cesar of Brazil.

Four defenders Chivu, Burdisso, Materazzi and Maicon lined up.

The three midfielders are Cambiasso, Vieira and their captain Zanetti.

Ibrahimovic, Mancini Jr. and Zhu Hantao have three arrows on the front line. "

"Well, Zhu Hantao got the chance to start again after starting the UEFA Champions League match in midweek and played the whole game. It seems that he has won the trust of coach Mourinho through his own strength and performance."

While the commentator was busy introducing the starting rosters of the two teams for this game, the players of the two teams had already completed the pre-opening ceremony after entering the field.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Hantao shook hands with the eleven starting players of the Torino team one by one. There were teammates he was very familiar with, a big brother with a good relationship, and new players whom he met for the first time.

The former teammates were very friendly. Needless to say, Corini touched Zhu Hantao's hair affectionately in the player tunnel, and Rosina hugged him.

And Zhu Hantao didn't know a few players, so they all looked at him coldly.It’s also normal. When you go to a team to play football, the fans in the stands are cheering for an opponent’s player before the game. Even if that person used to be here, you will not feel very comfortable.

Pratali glared at Zhu Hantao viciously, thinking that I must teach this kid a lesson in this match, and if he can't prevent him, he will also be crippled.

"With the referee Stefano Farina's whistle for this game, the game officially began! In the first half, it was Torino who played from left to right and wore a maroon jersey, while from right to left, it was Inter Milan who wore a classic blue and black striped shirt."

"Inter Milan took the lead and didn't hit the frontcourt, the ball was intercepted by Torino's defenders in midfield.

It is a young midfielder, and Saumel from Austria showed his fighting spirit at the beginning of the game. "
