After defeating Valencia, Real Madrid only had one league ga left to play before January, after which they could enjoy a happy holiday period. In the final ga of 2009 before entering 2010, Real Madrid crushed their opponent 8-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
On December 20, 2009, this day was destined to be morable for Zaragoza fans. In the first half, the team was crushed 5-0 by Real Madrid, and in the second half, substitutes like Parejo and Benzema went all out, directly gifting their esteed mbers an 8-0 victory!
At the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, so fans even began chanting Pellegrini’s na, expressing their satisfaction and excitent about the team’s performance in this match!
After this match, Real Madrid also had more than 10 days of holiday. The next league match was on January 4, 2010, the next King’s Cup match on January 7, 2010, and the next Champions League match in February 2010.
Every player has their own holiday life to live, and Chen Zhong was no exception. During this period, most of his club teammates were striving for the 2010 World Cup, but Chen Zhong couldn’t integrate into such a life because they had already been knocked out of the World Cup qualifiers early.
During this ti, perhaps to prevent Chen Zhong from feeling lonely, forr and current teammates would contact him by phone, and even so countries hoped Chen Zhong would give up his Chinese nationality to represent their nation, which Chen Zhong politely refused.
"Chen, do you know Schalke 04?"
"Soone called Hao from your country joined their team."
"He beca the first player to join them in their century-long history, and recently there have been many of your compatriots in Europe." Pinta told Chen Zhong about the changes in Chen Zhong over the past three years over the phone.
Once considered a football desert, China has gradually produced so talented players, like Wu, who is now playing in the Barcelona Youth Team and seeking a loan.
He’s been considered by so as the "Chinese Inzaghi." This player has a distinctive personal style, showing a keen insight into positioning during attacks, often cutting behind the defense to get one-on-one chances, and he’s gained so fa in the Barcelona Youth Team.
Able to score over 20 goals in a single season, despite having many issues, he holds promise in the eyes of the Barcelona Club, who believe he can contribute to the first team in the future.
Besides Wu, Zhang at the Chelsea Club also gained the appreciation of then-head coach Ancelotti, who thought Zhang’s physical attributes were excellent. Though he was lacking as a central defender, at fullback, he showed so "Ramos" quality.
Unfortunately, due to work permit issues, Zhang found it difficult to play for Chelsea’s first team. Chelsea was considering loaning Zhang out during the winter transfer window, and the Milan Club in Serie A was quite interested.
And at Bayern Munich, Robben also ntioned a person called "Da Lei" in a call. It’s said that originally, Da Lei intended to go to the Chelsea Club, but in the end, Bayern Munich snatched him up, believing Da Lei shows so of Neuer’s qualities.
It’s precisely because of the ergence of such "geniuses" that many fans back ho feel like geniuses are blooming everywhere.
To so extent, this has diluted Chen Zhong’s weight in the minds of dostic fans.
Besides these pioneers, news occasionally appears of young players being picked by so clubs in various dostic large or small competitions due to their talent, leading the country to have to start cooling the fervor for "football."
Recently, there have been so ssages encouraging everyone to be rational, and that studying is the best path.
During this period, Chen Zhong also accepted so interviews, where reporters once again asked about national team matters. Chen Zhong reiterated his views on warm-up and friendly matches and called for standardized arrangents for these in the country.
Facing the caras, Chen Zhong said, "For players playing abroad, I think the primary goal should be to secure their position at the club and be able to play high-quality matches."
This statent was actually quite normal, as many Chinese players’ paths abroad were affected by constant travel, and many clubs began to reconsider whether to sign players from China because of these issues.
Chen Zhong’s words also caused so public opinion impact dostically.
So supporters thought Chen Zhong was correct, while others considered him "selfish," citing examples of Chen Zhong’s predecessors who "opposed" for the national team and club.
The holiday ti quickly passed. Besides training, giving interviews, and participating in advertisents, Chen Zhong also interacted with young players in the Sports City.
Among them, a few players left a deep impression on him.
The first one was Jose Luis San Martin Mato, simply called "Joselu."
He was a young man who could appear as a role player in La Liga. He was tall, with a crew cut, but his body seed a bit thin.
On the pitch, he didn’t seem clumsy but rather had a certain lightness. After training, Joselu consulted Chen Zhong, asking how he could serve the first team.
