Dominate the midfield

Chapter 598 Chapter 598: The brutal knockout match has begun!

After hearing the news, the British media chanted long live, and immediately dialed the mobile phone they wanted to interview the player. Wang Rui's phone was almost ringing, so he had to turn off the mobile phone.

Peter never got tired of it, and he happily accepted interviews from one media after another, but when he reached No.15 media, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and turned off his cell phone like Wang Rui.

It's not that he doesn't like being interviewed by the media, but the content of the media interviews is similar. Peter feels that he has almost become a repeater, repeating those words over and over again.

The two looked at each other and smiled wryly. If you don't accept media interviews, you will be interviewed by the media without exposure. This is simply suffering.

Girard's visit solved their problem. The England captain said: "Throw this problem to the agent, let them choose a trusted media, and then buy a mobile phone card. After the World Cup, throw this card away. , no one can disturb our vacation."

"The media's news war is very powerful, we can also use this opportunity to make a small profit, you know..."

After being stunned, Wang Rui and Peter nodded deeply. Jiang is really old and hot!
OK, let's do it!

The next day, the British media was full of interviews and reports on England players!
The person with the most names in the media is not the captain Girard, nor the radiant Wang Rui, but Peter. More than a dozen media have published interviews with him.

Peter is teary eyed, God, it's all money, but I gave them an interview for free...

The main players such as Girard did not participate in the last game of the group. They used these precious days to rest and recover quickly.

England's training was carried out in a relaxed atmosphere, and Rooney put more energy into training. His position as England's first striker was strongly impacted by Peter.

If Peter was alone, it would be easy to deal with, but there are Wang Rui and Kenting behind Peter, plus Girard, Jean Lampard and others are obviously on Wang Rui's side...

If Rooney doesn't even understand this situation, he won't be able to drive Ronaldo away.

The temporary dormancy is for a more splendid outbreak!
