Jagged Wings

Chapter 222 The second half of the season begins

"Reyes, who returned to the Premier League, was in a brave state. He first scored twice in the last group stage of the Champions League, and then performed a hat-trick in the strong dialogue with Chelsea. Then he played against Blackburn. Scored a goal, but hit the goal frame three times. Is it possible to have such a phenomenal performance, is it related to his recent emotional life off the field?"

British Sky TV, "Weekly Sports" program, the host is doing a special program for Reyes.Although they know that it is bad behavior to often feature the same player, but no one can cover up Reyes' brilliance.

If they don't do Reyes' special feature, they don't even know whose special feature they want to do. If they want to do someone else's special feature, I'm afraid the fans will not agree!

With Reyes' phenomenal performance, Arsenal finally climbed to the seventh place in the league before the winter break. Although there is still a gap compared with the previous two seasons, this ranking is also There is a European war to fight.

Before the transfer window opened, Diaby returned as expected, but Fabregas was injured again.This suddenly even alarmed the old coach Aragones who was far away in Spain. The old man called specially to take care of Cesc Fabregas' recovery.

The 2008 European Cup is about to start, and any player's injury is an unbearable situation for Aragones.

"Since Arsenal is not doing well in the league this season, you should use less effort. Don't worry, you will definitely have a seat in the European Cup!" In the phone call to Reyes, the old coach earnestly taught Reyes.

Spain at this time cannot do without the winger Reyes.

Although the old coach's words are inside and out, and he is a little ruthless towards Arsenal, but the fact is that it is true. Arsenal, which has lost many veterans, is no longer a replacement, but the growth of those young players.

At this time, no matter how demanding the grades are, it would be to spoil the growth.

After the start of the winter break, Arsenal did not make up any players. Wenger meant that if the team needed players, the young players of the youth team would be the first choice.Now that the results have been given up, more attention must be paid to the training of young players.

Of course, the latter sentence was what Wenger said to himself.

In Wenger's view, the championship is not the most important thing. This is a problem of business thinking, not that he does not have the heart of a champion.

But because he is not in the mood, it does not mean that other people are not in the mood.

The winter break had just begun, and Arsenal announced a major transfer. Torres joined Chelsea for £5500 million.This price is 1000 million pounds more than when Wenger bought Torres.

In this way, not only released a large part of Arsenal's salary space, but also returned a large part of the funds.In terms of the team's finances, it will be able to make more profits.However, the transfer of Torres is the willingness of all three parties, and Wenger is also happy to do the favor.

"I don't know when the old man will sell me." Reyes said slowly during the phone call to Liu Shi.

He knows Arsenal's tradition of selling captains. Although because of his existence, the team finally won the Champions League and Henry was able to stay, but now he is also the vice-team, and he doesn't know who Wenger will sell him to tomorrow.

"Do you like Arsenal?" Liu Shi asked over there.

"I like it... I can't tell, but I really don't want to leave it."

As a human being in two lifetimes, Reyes' actual age has reached his 30s, so he should be more mature in thinking about the problem.

"By the way, where do you want to hold the wedding?" Reyes didn't want to talk about those heavy topics, and picked a light topic.

"Tch, when did my sister say she was going to marry you? Don't be so smug, first get me the World Cup!" Liu Shi over there laughed.

"World Cup champion..." Reyes put his ear to the phone and buried himself in the sofa. At this moment, he suddenly thought of Zhang Jun and Sophie.

"I've decided to go to Volendam for the wedding. As for the World Cup champion, that's for sure!" Reyes said.

"Hmm... huh? You really want to win the World Cup? I'm just kidding, Spain has never won that..." Liu Shi's voice was filled with distress.If Reyes can't win the World Cup for the rest of her life, won't she be unable to marry for the rest of her life?
The relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend has been established for some time, but because both of them are busy with their careers, 99% of the time they are separated from each other.Liu Shi's career is on the rise. Whether she admits it or not, the establishment of her relationship with Reyes has really helped her career a lot.

In the entertainment industry, as long as there is news, there will be a market. The matter of Liu Shi and Reyes naturally became the focus of both the sports and entertainment circles.

"These are all mine!" In a corner, Ye Lili said bitterly.Now she is completely regarded as a clown. Originally, she wanted to use the photo with Reyes to make some waves, but under the strong announcement of the person involved, Ye Lili gained very little, which made her image in the public even worse. It's getting worse.

And Reyes never called her once from the beginning to the end—this made Ye Lili feel even more frustrated. The cruelest thing to do to a person is not to hate him or insult him, but to ignore him directly.

And now, Reyes is ignoring Ye Lili.Such ignorance is not pretending, but that he really has no interest in this woman.

Before you know it, it's Christmas again, Christmas is on the 25th, and Arsenal's games are scheduled for the 23rd and 27th.Although the game was secret, the coaching staff still gave the players half a day off to let them enjoy the Christmas atmosphere.

The considerate Liu Shi even flew to London to spend this Christmas with Reyes.Christmas is equivalent to the Spring Festival in the West. When Christmas comes, Liu Shi can spend the Spring Festival at home.

In the 27 rounds on the 19th, Reyes did not score a goal, but contributed three assists to help the team beat Portsmouth 4:1.

Four days later, in the first game of the new year in 2008, without Torres, Arsenal swept West Ham United 2-0 at home, showing a strong rebound momentum.

Although their ranking is only fifth in the league at this time, it has put a lot of pressure on the top-ranked Manchester United.Four years without a championship has made Manchester United, a veteran team, wait too long. They care too much about this championship.

Next Arsenal will face the Carabao Cup, the first of two legs in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, but Wenger also knows the depth of their bench.So although this game is still a North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur, Wenger still sent a substitute lineup including the goalkeeper.

Arsenal, who played all on the bench, gave Wenger a surprise. After 90 minutes of fierce fighting, they stubbornly drew Tottenham Hotspur 1:1 at home, showing their tenacious fighting spirit!
This also gave Wenger some ideas. The league is hopeless, the FA Cup is out, and the Champions League is still a long way away. Should we be able to win the visible League Cup champion?
