Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 633

July 17, 2007.

After Su Fei finished shooting the TV commercial for Anta, he met up with Sun Jihai and his family, and then took a flight for more than ten hours and landed in Manchester.

After more than a month of absence.

Finally returned to the familiar Xiaofei Manor.

Although no one lived there this summer, the house was still spotless because Su Fei had hired a special housekeeper to clean it in advance.

The huge house seemed a bit cold.

But soon.

Modric, who came back earlier than Su Fei, came to visit.

I haven't seen him for a whole summer.

Modric's hair was cut short, and he wore a headband on his forehead.

Although he looked a bit sissy.

But Su Fei knew that Modric had always been a tough guy on the court, just like Nesta who also had long hair.

"Su! Look what I brought you!"

"Huh?"

"Rakija!! Every time you go back to Croatia, you must drink at least three bottles!"

Looking at the box of Croatian specialty fruit wine Rakija that Modric placed on the ground, Su Fei touched his nose.

The unpleasant memories of the Triple Crown Parade celebration immediately emerged in his mind... Since then, Su Fei has made up his mind to quit drinking.

At least not during the off-season.

However, he received a gift from his good brother.

Su Fei still immediately showed a surprised and excited expression, giving back emotional value.

"Hahaha Luka, come and hug one!"

"I love this thing to death, you still understand me."

"Come in, I also brought a lot of specialties from China, ready to give you."

The two who had not seen each other for an off-season were like college students who had experienced a winter and summer vacation and returned to the "school dormitory".

The two chatted about what they did during the off-season.

The end of the topic.

It is natural to talk about the 10 new teammates the team has signed in the new season, as well as the old teammates who have left Manchester City.

Midfielder Musampa, bad boy Barton, American Reina, former central defender partner of Dunn, Distin, defender Stephen Jordan... Among them are the starting main force during Manchester City's two-time champion in the 2005-06 season.

Although in the last season.

Most of the above players rarely get a chance to play.

Because Stewart basically implements the idea of ​​a fixed starting lineup.

Only when the main players are resting.

The above people have the opportunity to play.

For the departure of these old teammates, the emotional Modric showed some sadness.

"It's a pity that we didn't even have time to hold a farewell party for them."

"Take it easy, Luca. But they participated in and enjoyed our treble parade and celebration."

"That's true..."

"And they will go to a team that suits them better and get more playing time and opportunities. Staying in Manchester City will just be a spectator on the bench."

The words are rough but the truth is true.

Once Su Fei said this, it was very effective in comforting Modric.

After lamenting the departure of the old teammates.

The next step is naturally the joining of new teammates.

Modric is just like most of the outside world and fans, unable to understand Guardiola's crazy signings.

"I still find it unrealistic, Su. We got 10 new teammates at once. I can only remember a few of their names now."

"It doesn't matter. Isn't there a special introduction meeting prepared by the team tomorrow? You will remember several more."

"You are right. But I have the illusion that I have joined a new team..."

"And when you came to Manchester City last winter, you quickly adapted to everything. You can do it this time too."

All Su Fei can do is to constantly encourage and comfort Modric.

A huge personnel adjustment in a team during the offseason.

It is always easy for old teammates to feel uneasy, maybe they are worried about their status, or they may be worried about getting along with new teammates... Modric obviously belongs to the latter.

However, adapting to the changes in the team's personnel.

It is also a basic quality that every professional player must have.

........................................................

July 18, 9 am, in a meeting room at Manchester City's training base.

New and old players arrived on time and gathered together.

A very clear dividing line appeared between the old and new players. The old players sat on one side, while the new players subconsciously chose to sit on the other side.

Except Mario Mandzukic.Of course, he sat with Su Fei and Modric, and formed a two-star Croatian.

The future Croatian "air master" became a loyal fan of Su Fei during the preparation and competition of the last European qualifier.

Today, he acted like Gareth Bale, who was particularly excited when he first arrived at Manchester City.

"My God, I thought I might play football in Croatia for the rest of my life. I really didn't expect that I could join a triple crown team, join Manchester City, and become teammates with you two!"

"Do you know?"

"When my agent told me that Manchester City wanted to buy me, I was so happy that I kicked the football out of the wall behind the stadium with excitement. Hahaha."

Mandzukic kept talking, and Su Fei and Modric were both amused.

In fact, what he said was not funny.

But both of them were infected by his emotions, and it also relieved some of Modric's pressure of having so many new teammates suddenly.

.........................................................

Everyone kept moving their eyes, looking around at their new teammates for the new season.

Su Fei's feelings were quite obvious. Almost every new teammate would keep their eyes on him for a long time, or look at him expressionlessly, or smile and wave to say hello after seeing Su Fei looking back.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you.

Karim Benzema, 20 years old, does not have the iconic beard yet, and there is not much hair on his mouth or head. He lacks a sense of humor, but he is still handsome?

Although Pepe, 24 years old, is very young, he is already the "big brother" level among this group of new players, and he looks no different from the monk in Su Fei's impression.

Mario Balotelli, 17 years old... has a natural old look of black people, and a tuft of yellow hair is dyed on his head. If you don't know that this is a professional football player, he looks more like a gang member in the slums of the old United States.

Some people look like they are born mature, but when they reach middle age, they find that they look almost the same as when they were young. 19-year-old Angel Di Maria is such a typical representative. His current hairstyle is even similar to what Su Fei remembered.

Then there is the future Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany. He is 21 years old this year and has less beard. He is not bald and has a small pot lid hairstyle.

Finally, there are young Yaya Toure, Ivan Rakitic, Dani Alves, Juan Mata...

These people.

They will become the backbone of Manchester City in the new season and the fresh blood injected into Manchester City.

Together with Manchester City's existing players, they will form a "Blue Galaxy Battleship" that is both talented and powerful!
