greenery is king

Chapter 1330 Statues
The bus is driving on the first motorway in Gelsenkirchen. At the end of this road is Pride Schalke. Chelsea players are sitting on the bus. Some people are looking at the scenery outside the window curiously, while others He whispered or closed his eyes to rest his mind, but Ai Huan, who was sitting in the last row, was different from others. He closed the curtains and nestled in the seat, but his eyes looked out through the gaps in the curtains.

There is an idiom in China called being close to the hometown. Ai Huan didn’t have such a strong feeling before, but this time he had a brand new experience. He wanted to know what changed in Gelsenkirchen after he left for more than half a year. But I was really worried that this place was no longer a place I was familiar with.

Fortunately, everything was exactly the same as when I left. This city showed neither loathing nor enthusiasm for me. It was what it was, standing here quietly, unchanged, but showing warmth all the time. .

Recently, Chelsea seemed to be on the run, running around non-stop, but the victory in the last game allowed them to continue to maintain their advantage in the league, which was enough to give them a short respite, but that was only ten It's only five hours, because there are less than fifty hours before the last game, and the second round of the Europa League started in Gelsenkirchen.

But Chelsea had no chance to choose, they could only bite the bullet and stand up, because these games are unavoidable in any way.

Mourinho is sitting in the first row of the car. He has been closing his eyes and recuperating. He is already familiar with the scenery outside. What he is thinking about now is whether his formation is the best plan. For Whether the opponent has done the most thorough and perfect analysis, and whether there will be other mistakes in this battle, he has to think about everything from the beginning, this is the last chance.

Ranieri had a great impact on him in the last game. In fact, these two people have always had some wonderful connections. When Mourinho injected Chelsea for the first time, he took over from Ranieri. After leaving this team, and then he made a complete change to this team, which made Chelsea reborn and finally reached the position of the Premier League champion.

Since then, he has always believed that Ranieri's level is very average. He is a coach who is only suitable for small clubs, and his control over big clubs is no longer on the same starting line as himself. Jean suddenly discovered the fact that once Ranieri controls everything in a team, the combat effectiveness of his team is absolutely surprising.

He was very impressed by Schalke's counterattack in the last game, so a seemingly unattractive lineup can play a very exciting counterattack just by using one or two fulcrums, and He can be threatening almost every time, which is not something everyone can do, so he knows that he must not underestimate Ranieri.

Chelsea won the final victory in the last game, but why was that?Ai Huan scored two goals and assisted one by himself. It can almost be said that he killed the opponent by himself, but what if there is no Ai Huan?Mourinho couldn't help but shudder.

What will Ranieri do this time?Can they continue to play defensively and counterattack?This should be impossible. After all, they are already two goals behind. It is meaningless to simply defend, but is it really possible for Schalke to play an all-out offensive posture?
Mourinho's mind was spinning rapidly. He deduced every detail from the beginning again, and felt that nothing was left behind, so he gradually relaxed. But at this moment, he suddenly heard someone from a distance You don't need to look to know that Aofu Schalke has arrived.

Sure enough, Aofu Schalke appeared in the sight of everyone. It was the first time for a few people from Chelsea to come here, so they couldn't help but admire at first glance. Anyway, this is a five-star stadium in Europe. Inside and out, there is an air of arrogance exuding.

"Look, what's that? It's Ai Huan's statue!" Suddenly Ake's voice came from the middle. He is considered to be a relatively active young player, so he usually stays in the middle of the bus. Now suddenly Calling a sentence immediately attracted the attention of many people, even Ai Huan couldn't help but look over.

It was four o'clock in the afternoon in Germany time. Although the early spring sunshine was miserable, it was still shining on the front of the stadium. Before the gate of Schalke, you could see a statue about three meters standing quietly. Standing in the sunlight, the golden statue is also reflecting golden light.

It was the action of Ai Huan preparing to shoot. Every muscle in his body was tense, and his clothes were tightly attached to his body. Even every wrinkle of the jersey was carefully drawn. , it can be seen that this is a work of great effort by skilled craftsmen.

Ai Huan was also a little dazed when he first looked at it. This is no longer the statue at the beginning. He also knew that his statue was pushed by angry Schalke fans when he left, and when is this statue standing now? What about here?
After all, De Bruyne stayed in Schalke for half a year. He still knew this matter very well, and immediately explained, "The previous one was pushed down and then hit by a car, so it couldn't be recovered. But later the fans They understood your difficulties and understood that you left for the club, so they made a new one for you again. This time, they used a marble base of about one meter below to prevent anyone from destroying it. Don’t even think about crushing it even if it’s a big truck.”

After hearing this, Ai Huan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and immediately showed a wry smile, "I didn't expect such a statue to have such twists and turns. I thought it would be toppled down."

De Bruyne shrugged his shoulders, "You haven't read the text written on it. The same words are written in German, English and Chinese on the marble base."

"What did you write?" This time not only Ai Huan, but also Lampard and others became curious.

"It says that God stayed here and fought for Schalke. We believe that one day, he will return to this place, and his glory will cover us again."

"Damn, so arrogant." Lukaku couldn't help but screamed.
