Chapter 271 Universe Team
"I have rejected Barcelona once, so I think I can refuse Barcelona once again."
When Zhou Yi said this with a smile, the Catalan reporter in front of him was stunned. He did not expect that although Zhou Yi smiled, his words were very tough and his attitude was firm. He could be said to be "ruthless".
When most people are interested in Barcelona, they will say first, no matter whether it is true or false: "It is my honor to be taken by Barcelona, and no one can refuse the call of a wealthy family like Barcelona..."
As a result, Zhou Yi did not mention such a standard answer at all.
As for what he said he had rejected Barcelona, the Catalan journalist had heard of it. When Dortmund met Arsenal in the group stage, the English media hyped it up. However, the reporter only heard about it, and the specific situation was not clear.
He always felt it was incredible. How could Barcelona be rejected by Zhou Yi, who was still a 17-year-old boy at the time?
There must be something wrong here, or something wrong with spreading rumors...
Since Zhou Yi took the initiative to mention this matter this time, he had to go back and check it carefully. What was going on.
※※※
It is naturally impossible for Zhou Yi to directly reject the Catalan journalist, but no one could know. In fact, other journalists around him quickly spread this matter to everyone in the world.
Zhou Yi made a rare tough word, which made everyone very interested.
After some pissing and firing from the media, everything was said.
Some people say that Zhou Yi angrily scolded Catalan reporters in person, and some people say that Zhou Yi looked down on Barcelona's invitation...
However, Zhou Yi was too lazy to explain these issues. He really didn't have the energy and no need to fight verbal with the media.
It is their business that others think. Their ideas cannot change Zhou Yi. Their praise cannot make Zhou Yi win, and their criticism cannot make Zhou Yi lose. So why should Zhou Yi pay attention to other people's opinions?
He has not been the kind of person who cares about other people's opinions since he was a child, otherwise he would not be the "psychopath" in the eyes of some people.
However, when his friends asked about this in the group, he could not ignore it.
"Yes, I said that." Zhou Yi admitted.
"Damn, Zhou Yi, you are awesome!" Sun Pan gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up. As a player who is currently in the Chelsea club, Sun Pan has no good feelings for Barcelona.
Zhou Yi said modestly: "I'm just trying to help He Ying vent my anger. Let them be blind and let the top scorer of the Spanish Second Division be used to spare!"
He Ying rolled her eyes.
"But He Ying is doing well in Valladolid now. After the season is over, Barcelona should transfer him to the first team, right?" Yang Muge asked.
"Must!" Guo Nu said, he was a little envious because he was also a hardcore Barcelona fan and hoped to return to Barcelona one day to play. However, at present, he is too far from this goal when playing football in Cesena...
But unexpectedly, He Ying said: "No, I don't want to go back to Barcelona."
This answer surprised everyone. Sun Pan, Yang Muge and Guo Nu all expressed surprise in the group, and only Zhou Yi said nothing. Because he could understand why He Ying said that, he was not surprised by this.
Faced with everyone's surprise, He Ying explained: "The competition for the risk of the first team is too fierce. Even if I am transferred to the first team, I am still a substitute. Players like Troy and Pedro are now substitutes. I don't know which number I have been to. Maybe I can only get some playing time in the Copa del Rey. Sitting on the bench in Barcelona is not what I want."
"But it may not be that you are just a substitute when you go back. Maybe at the beginning, but as long as you have the opportunity, you can impress Guardiola." Guo Nu said. He still hopes that He Ying can play in Barcelona. "Just like Lao Yang, you see, he was also a substitute for the first team in Schalke 04, and he didn't even have a chance to play. But now? He is already the main player."
"My situation is different from Lao Yang." He Ying explained. "I am the kind of player who needs the ball under his feet. I drive the ball and shoot the ball. I have a greater threat. And I play better in the middle than on the wing. I play in Valladolid in the middle and have a lot of ball rights, so I can score goals. But in the first team of Barcelona, the ball possession of the offensive belongs to Messi and Iniesta. If I go up, it will involve cover and make walls for Messi... I don't like that, that's not the way I want to play."
"Instead of staying on the Barcelona first team bench for a few years before finding a way out, it is better not to take that detour from the beginning. I like Barcelona very much, but my fantasy about it has long disappeared." He Ying said at the end.
His words were a bit heavy. His friends knew how much he wanted to play football in Barcelona at the beginning. He often used Catalan textbooks to learn languages, and even started preparing earlier than that time.
He was once delighted to be able to enter Lamacia's first training and appeared in the Chinese domestic media. He was known as "the first Chinese to conquer Lamacia". He was very glorious, and he was much more glorious than Zhou Yi, who was still dormant in the Dortmund youth training camp at that time.
But in the end, he said that he no longer had fantasies about Barcelona. The reality is so cruel that people don’t know what to say.
Just when there was a trend of cold events in the group, Zhou Yi jumped out: "Share the emperor. I think He Ying is right. No one stipulates that those who come from Lamacia must play football in Barcelona, nor does it stipulate that only playing football in Barcelona can be considered successful. All roads are successful."
Everyone also thinks that Zhou Yi is right. They are not playing football in wealthy families, but they are also working towards their dreams. It is not necessary to realize their dreams in wealthy families.
"Thank you Zhou Yi." He Ying expressed his gratitude to Zhou Yi for his understanding. "But Barcelona is not easy to deal with. They are very strong. You have to be careful..."
"I know." Zhou Yi said. "Of course Barcelona is very strong. If they are not strong, it would be wrong."
"This is a problem. It's too unlucky to go to Barcelona. I thought you could move forward..." Yang Muge felt sorry for this. Although he was a player of his mortal enemy Schalke 04, he is now talking about this as a friend of Zhou Yi.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi's reaction surprised him, including others.
"Why can't you go forward?" he asked back.
"The opponent is Barcelona!" Guo Nu exclaimed. As a brainless fan of Barcelona, he was fully exposed at this time.
"Yes, so what?" Zhou Yi continued to ask back.
"How is it? The Universe Team, I'll ask if you're afraid!" Guo Nu said.
"I'm afraid of a ghost!" Zhou Yi replied. "If Barcelona were the universe team, I would be the explosion team!"
"What's this?" Sun Pan couldn't understand. The Universe Team is Barcelona, and what does the Explosion Team mean?
It was Yang Muge who helped him solve his doubts: "The Big Bang."
"What is that?" Sun Pan was still a little confused.
"Anyway, it means blowing up the universe!" Zhou Yi said.
"Oh, I understand." Sun Pan nodded.
"You can say it nicely, but how to win, do you have a way?" He Ying asked.
"No." Zhou Yi's answer was also very straightforward.
"Damn!" Sun Pan saw that Zhou Yi was so confident that he had already made a countermeasure. It turned out that he was just talking nonsense... "No, why are you talking big? Are you going to die if you don't show off!"
"Do you have confidence?" Zhou Yi sent a look of spreading his hands. "And the football is round, maybe we will win?"
"..." Sun Pan was speechless.
※※※
The first leg of the quarterfinals between Dortmund and Barcelona was played on the night of March 28. And it was home first and then away. For Dortmund, this was a very unfavorable schedule.
Now there is still half a month left before this game, Dortmund can prepare well.
But in the eyes of many people, no matter how Dortmund prepares, it is no different from dying struggle.
Barcelona is so powerful...
This is the first thought that many people think of Barcelona at that time.
It's human nature.
In other words, this is the normal human nature.
Perhaps even Dortmund's own fans and players think it's a very unlucky thing to be drawn to Barcelona.
Of course, not everyone will think so.
When Zhou Yi and his teammates stood in front of a square white house without any decoration, they were all confused.
This strange building has actually been built in the training base in Dortmund, but it has always been covered with dark net walls, and there is no sign outside the construction site. Everyone only knows that the training base is adding facilities, but they don’t know what facilities are, let alone what they are used for.
The players have also had some speculations about this strange building. Some say it is a new gym, some say it is an institution similar to the Milan Laboratory, and some say it is a new restaurant. People who guess it must be a foodie...
After today's training began, Klopp did not let the players start training on the training ground as usual, but instead brought the team to the front of this mysterious building.
"What is this?" someone stared at the house and couldn't help asking.
