Chapter 373 The Royal Family's Invitation

Having won the Champions League and the Premier League, Shao Bo filled the gap in Arsenal's honor,

After the UEFA Champions League, June will usher in the European Cup, and after a while, the time will belong to the Athens Olympics.

Every year, the league season alone lasts about ten months, and there is not much time left for them to rest.

This year's European Cup, if Shao Bo remembers correctly, it should be that Greece became the dark horse of the counterattack and won the championship under the circumstances that no one was optimistic about.

Originally, 04 was a year of dark horses and frequent upsets.

Monaco and Porto should join forces victoriously in the Champions League final, and Greece will overcome their strong opponents to win the European Cup.

However, thanks to Shao Bo's efforts, both the Monaco and Porto teams lost the opportunity to add a fortune to the honor book.Although Greece is the national team, Shao Bo has indirectly changed the fate of many players over the years. Who knows if they will be able to perform as they have in history?
Shao Bo's interest in this European Cup is not too great. The nerves have been tense this year, which made Shao Bo feel very tired.

Now that the season is over, he is ready to relax completely, without a phone, without involvement in club decisions, without thinking about anything football-related.

The holiday was set by Shao Bo during the period of the European Cup. After all, the club still has a lot of transfers, new stadium arrangements, new jerseys, and new sponsors.

Shao Bo really wanted to give up his job for a long time, but he really couldn't do it.

At the beginning of June, Shao Bo left North London after explaining all the arrangements, and boarded a plane to Northern Europe with Emma.

This year's European Cup was held in Portugal, a hot southern European country, and Shao Bo took Emma to Northern Europe.

It is summer now, the latitude of northern Europe is higher, the days are long and the nights are short, and it is only warm and comfortable in summer.That's why Shao Bo took advantage of this time to travel to Northern Europe.

If they ran near the equator at this time, Shao Bo and Emma would definitely be tanned by the end of the holiday.

For the first stop, they chose Norway, which has the title of "Land of Ten Thousand Islands".

With its rich oil resources, it has become an extremely wealthy country, and its social welfare ranks among the top three in the world.However, for Shao Bo, who is extremely wealthy, the tax rates in Nordic countries such as Norway are too high, and it is not suitable for him to settle at all.

June is a good time to come to Norway, the fruit trees are in full bloom, the mountains are slightly covered with snow, and the waterfalls are splashing along the mountains.

The flowing waterfall and the snow on the top of the cliff formed a sharp contrast. Shao Bo sat on the tourist boat and played fishing with great interest.

But after playing for a long time, let alone a fish, I didn't even catch a piece of clothing, a wooden barrel, or a drift bottle.

Seeing that professionals can get something from time to time, Shao Bo put down his fishing rod with envy and hatred, turned around and walked into the cabin and ate the chopped salmon vigorously.

Norway is the country with the largest salmon production in the world. How can you not taste the local delicacies when you come here?

The salmon floating in the deep cold sea was delicious and textured, and Shao Bo ate two plates in one go.There are also a lot of Norwegian prawns, and both Shao Bo and Emma's plates are full of prawn shells.

Emma, ​​who is no longer a little girl, is influenced by Shao Bo, and she doesn't have the habit of good education when facing food, and she doesn't have any sense of eating.

Along the coast they played from Norway to Sweden, and in Stockholm they enjoyed unexpected scenery.

Not only the temperature has been kept above 20 degrees because of the warm current, even the sky is not completely dark at night.

Of course, they will not forget to visit various buildings related to Nobel when they come to Stockholm Schaub.

Shao Bo received traditional domestic education when he was a child. At that time, his dream was to become a scientist like other children.Of course, most people will not embark on the road of scientific research in the end.

The world is unpredictable, who would have thought that Shao Bo would become a football coach now?
Before time travel, he never thought of engaging in a football-related career.

At noon, Shao Bo took Emma to the gate of the Swedish Royal Palace.

Although Shao Bolian has been to the Forbidden City and other places that are a hundred times more luxurious and majestic than the Swedish royal palace, he has never visited the royal palace of his master.

After Arsenal won the first Champions League in team history and London's first Champions League, the British royal family invited the club.They invited Arsenal players to the Royal Palace to share afternoon tea with Queen Elizabeth.

This is a great honor for the British. Even a guy like Shao Bo, who has been immersed in proletarian thinking since childhood and has no feeling for the royal family, feels very honored.

It's just because of the cumbersome procedures and the schedule filled with various affairs that they will only enjoy this opportunity after the European Cup is over.

The Swedish royal palace, which can be visited casually for a few dollars, is of course not as good as the heavily guarded British royal palace. Shao Bo deliberately rushed there at noon, just to see the scene of the changing of the guard.

The costumes are splendid and the ceremony is grand, but in Shao Bo's mind, this is not at all comparable to the flag-raising ceremony he watched on Tiananmen Square in the past.

Afterwards, Finland and Denmark also had their own unique scenery. Shao Bo originally wanted to buy a set of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tales for Emma in Denmark, but the girl’s eyes made him scratch his head. He has grown up and stopped reading these things for a long time. Slightly.

In addition to food, scenery, social system with extremely high welfare and other things that are famous in the world in Northern Europe, there is also a beauty that men all over the world covet.

Tall and fair-skinned, this is the favorite of all men.

Shao Bo had the idea of ​​going out to hunt for sex many times, but there were always girls playing tricks behind his back.

During more than half a month in Northern Europe, Shao Bo did not get a satisfactory result in hooking up once, and in the end he could only get on the plane back to North London with resentment.

At the end of the European Cup, England stopped in the quarter-finals. The atmosphere of public opinion in the UK suddenly changed from the extreme pride before the start of the game.

The FA announced after the European Cup that their new coach will be Eriksen, who has just resigned from Chelsea, and Abramovich has not yet chosen the next leader for Chelsea after dismissing Eriksen By.

Eriksson chose the national team, and the FA offered him a higher price than Abramovich.

But who will take over from Eriksen and lead Chelsea to Arsenal's rivalry?
Shao Bo doesn't care about these now, because no matter which head coach comes to London, Shao Bo must let him know that only Arsenal is the king of London!

After the European Cup, the players will not come back immediately.Who doesn't want to rest for a while after the intense intercontinental game.

Arsenal's players generally did not perform very well in this European Cup, probably because they consumed too much energy in the Premier League and Champions League in the 03-04 season.

After the Champions League game, the players did not have enough time to recover.

Although the players have become important members of their respective national teams because of the dazzling team honors, it is precisely because they are all in key positions that the players who are unable to shoulder the heavy responsibilities have instead dragged down the national team that could have played better .

After the European Cup, the value of Arsenal's players has also shrunk to a certain extent.After winning the Champions League, the value of these players generally rose sharply, but after a relatively sluggish European Cup, they fell back.

Fortunately, Arsenal completed player transactions with other clubs early. Although the value has dropped, it has not had any impact on the team.

The downturn of the players in the European Cup is also expected by Shao Bo. Some players whose condition has begun to decline must be sold at a good price while they are in good condition at this time.

However, before the European Cup, the club only negotiated a deal for one player.

Sol Campbell.

This is also the only player in Arsenal who is not in Shao Bo's plan now.

Campbell still has a two-year contract with Arsenal. When he left Tottenham Hotspur and joined Arsenal as a free agent, Shao Bo didn't want to wait until two years later to face the same dilemma.

Campbell is already in his 30s, and his condition has gradually declined with age. The final of this Champions League is a good example.

Arsenal's two conceded goals have a great relationship with Campbell.

Moreover, his annual salary exceeds that of Henry and Vieira, who occupy the position of the ceiling. The main reason for this is that Campbell came to vote for free, and the club also needs to give sufficient compensation.

But looking at it now, his performance does not match his salary, and his fiery temper often causes trouble for Arsenal. Shao Bo has good enough players such as Rio Ferdinand, Terry, and Kolo Toure. Under the premise of being a central defender, Campbell can be let go.

Moreover, with Chelsea, the big local tycoon, how could Shao Bo reject their offer?
Two years after Abramovich took over, he has spent a lot more rationally. As a veteran, Campbell, who is in his 30s, can be sold by Arsenal for 2000 million pounds, which is also a surprise.

Moreover, Campbell can get more salary than Arsenal at Chelsea, which is a transfer that everyone is happy with.

Some critics thought it was extremely stupid for Shaw to abandon Campbell, and they wrote articles in newspapers to criticize Shaw, lowering their hopes for Arsenal's performance next season.

But if they can be right every time, there will be no such thing as a head coach in this world.
