Go back to the past and be the king

Chapter 43 Shi Lei Gets Too Much Attention
Lu Chen's starting lineup in Munich 1860 is now stable, and Kurz has high expectations for him.

But Shi Lei's career has encountered a turning point.

Shi Lei's two-year loan contract to Toulouse has expired. Toulouse wanted to buy out Shi Lei's ownership from Arsenal, but was rejected by Arsenal.

The main goalkeeper of Arsenal last season, Lehmann, has just transferred and left. Although the professor has chosen to promote last season's substitute goalkeeper Manuel Almunia Rivero as the main goalkeeper, but for Shi Lei, an outstanding Players, still don't want to let go.

Rumor has it that Professor Wenger has a "genius collector", so Shi Lei will definitely be taken back by Arsenal.

In fact, goalkeeper is a position that needs to accumulate experience. If Shi Lei can only be a substitute goalkeeper at Arsenal, he might as well be loaned out again.

But the temptation from Arsenal is too great, even Shi Lei can't be completely immune.

Now that he has decided to stay, Shi Lei's labor certificate is a big problem.Although Shi Lei has played for Toulouse for two seasons, helped the team achieve good results, and even won a gold glove.However, even Wenger himself has no idea whether the hearing of the special genius clause can pass.After all, the FA fucked up for all to see.

In fact, Shi Lei's own idea is to stay in France, because he was an absolute main player in the team in Toulouse, and it's hard to say whether he will be second or third after returning to Arsenal.

Although the FA are fucked, they are not so unreliable as to let such a true talent go easily.

However, the hearing was also very difficult.Arsenal started to apply for Shi Lei's hearing before the season started, but Shi Lei's work permit did not come out until the first round of the Premier League was over.

Things went smoothly after that. Shi Lei successfully returned to Arsenal and became the first Chinese goalkeeper to play in the Premier League. He also renewed his contract with the club until 2011.

This incident also caused an uproar in China. After all, when Shi Lei was playing in Ligue [-], many fans who followed Ligue [-] had climbed over the wall to watch Shi Lei's games.

Now Shi Lei has become a rising star of Chinese players studying abroad, and has become a hot spot for domestic fans.

After all, Sun Jihai chose not to renew his contract with Manchester City last season, but moved to the Championship team Sheffield United as a free agent.Last season, Shao Jiayi was not valued in Cottbus, and he suffered from constant injuries.

At this time, Shi Lei from Ligue [-] suddenly broke into the attention of domestic fans.

At this time, everyone realized that there was also a Chinese player in Ligue [-], and he performed extremely well.

But after all, there are not many domestic fans who pay attention to Ligue [-]. Even if Shi Lei becomes famous, his fame is only in a very small area.However, this season, when Arsenal announced the withdrawal of Shi Lei, the domestic media was completely uneasy.

Come to think of it, where is Arsenal?Rich!Besides King Dong, who other Chinese players have joined a team of this level?

But after seeing Shi Lei being blocked from the Emirates Stadium due to labor certification issues, the enthusiasm of the domestic media instantly calmed down.

The British labor certificate is not something that can be obtained casually. Didn't the king Dong have to practice in the Belgian second division for so long because of the labor certificate?

What people didn't expect was that Shi Lei's application for a labor certificate was successful. Not only was the domestic media surprised, but even the British media was like Chinese New Year...

Is this what the FA is talking about, or is there any agreement between Wenger and the FA?These are the points that the British media pay attention to. As for who this Shi Lei is, now is not the time to pay attention.

But the domestic media seemed to be stepped on the tail, and they were impatient. All the newspapers sent reporters to London to interview first-hand information.

However, Shi Lei didn't overexpose his intentions, he believed that players should play football well, and don't punish those who are not, just like stars.So Shi Lei hid in his own house outside of training, read books, exercised, and lived a fulfilling life.

The reporters couldn't find Shi Lei, so they could only go to the club to find Wenger to find out the situation.But Wenger is a very busy person. He just accepted a simple interview and said: "I am looking forward to Shi's performance."

Just this one sentence is enough, and the reporters can make a flower out of nothing.As far as this compliment is concerned, Wenger who didn't write it personally invited Shi Lei back from France, so they are not worthy of being called uncrowned kings.

After these reporters returned to their respective newspaper offices, pieces of nasty and hair-raising articles were published by major newspaper offices.

What is "Chinese players conquer England", similar to "Wenger said that the hope for the new season is all on Shi Lei", and some even wrote: "Wenger: 'This Chinese player will become the next Yashin.'"

All the Chinese media are YYing, the country is finally about to produce a top goalkeeper.

But the reality gave them a big slap in the face. When the roster for the second round of the Premier League was announced on August 8, Shi Lei didn't even make the roster, not to mention his debut.

The Chinese media quit all of a sudden. I have been bragging in China for so long, but you actually come here. Do you want my old face?
Then, a Chinese reporter asked Wenger: "Why isn't Shi Lei included in the big list?"

Wenger glanced at the reporter and replied: "Shi is a very good player, but he has just returned to the team and needs time to get used to the team."

Wenger's answer is actually not very satisfactory to the Chinese reporters. After all, he is a player from his own country, and they all want him to play as soon as possible.

……

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

But Lu Chen and Shi Lei were also harassed by reporters, but Lu Chen didn't have such good luck.

The hotel where Lu Chen stayed was exposed for some reason. As soon as Lu Chen went out that day, he saw a group of reporters waiting to interview him. He was so scared that he hurried back and didn't dare to leave the door.

This situation is not because Lu Chen is already famous, but because of the timeliness of the news.Lu Chen played the best in this round of the Bundesliga Bundesliga, and everyone didn't know much about Lu Chen, so of course it attracted the attention of reporters.

Lying on the bed in the hotel, Lu Chen finally made a decision in his heart - it's time to rent a house, after all, just living in a hotel is not a serious matter.

In the end, the club was also very generous and rented a house directly for Lu Chen. Although the 1860 fans rented it to Lu Chen, this house cost a lot of money.

It can be seen that the club still attaches great importance to Lu Chen. After all, by playing the emotional card, Lu Chen can choose to stay in the team after the loan ends.

The house that the club rented for Lu Chen is in a very good location, there is a supermarket not far downstairs, and the transportation is very convenient.Even walking to training takes less than 10 minutes, which can be said to be quite convenient.

Lu Chen moved here from the hotel that day, because there was nothing he could do, and it was too annoying to be asked by reporters.After accepting several interviews, I was always asked what color underwear I wear.

The second round of the Bundesliga is on August 8, and Lu Chen's starting lineup is already a certainty, because Lu Chen usually wears the main team's training shirts during training.

Although Kurtz said every time he was divided into groups that he would not choose the starting list because of what training shirt you wore in training, but this is already an unwritten rule.

However, Kurtz hadn't decided what formation to play until the day before the game, and even the original tactics were overthrown and rebuilt because of Lu Chen's arrival.

What Kurtz originally thought was to let Lu Chen play as a left midfielder, continuing the bottom cross tactic of the previous game.But the next game is against Mainz, and their air defense can make people feel hopeless.

In the end, Kurtz was determined to play a defensive counterattack. After all, it is the best tactic for a weak team to play a defensive counterattack against a strong team.
