Chapter 271 Team Universe

"I already said no to Barcelona once, so I feel like I can say no to Barcelona again."

When Zhou Yi said these words with a smile on his face, the Catalan reporter in front of him was stunned. He did not expect that although Zhou Yi was smiling, his words were very hard and his attitude was firm. It's "no mercy".

When ordinary people face the fact that Barcelona is interested, whether it is true or not, they will first say: "It is an honor for me to be chosen by Barcelona. No one can refuse the call of a giant like Barcelona..."

As a result, Zhou Yi did not mention such a standard answer at all.

As for what he said about rejecting Barcelona, ​​the Catalan reporter has heard about it. When Dortmund met Arsenal in the group stage, the English media hyped this up. However, this reporter only heard about it and did not know the specific situation.

He always found it incredible. How could Barcelona be rejected by Zhou Yi, who was still seventeen years old at the time?

There must be something wrong here, or there must be something wrong...

Since Zhou Yi took the initiative to mention this matter this time, he had to go back and verify what was going on.

※※※

It is naturally impossible for no one to know about Zhou Yi's direct rejection of Catalan reporters. In fact, other reporters around him quickly spread the word to the whole world.

Zhou Yi rarely said harsh words, which made everyone very interested.

After some embellishing by the media, everything was said.

Some people say that Zhou Yi angrily rebuked Catalan reporters in person, while others say that Zhou Yi looked down on Barcelona’s invitation...

However, Zhou Yi is too lazy to explain these issues. He really has no energy and no need to start a war of words with the media now.

What others think is their business, and their thoughts cannot change Zhou Yi. Their praise can neither make Zhou Yi win, nor can their criticism make Zhou Yi lose. So why should Zhou Yi care about 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 wouldn't be the "crazy" in the eyes of some people.

But when his friend asked about it in the group, he couldn't ignore it.

"yes,

I said that. "Zhou Yi admitted.

"Damn, Zhou Yi, you're awesome!" Sun Pan gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up expression. As a player whose contract is still with Chelsea Club, Sun Pan doesn't have a good impression of Barcelona.

Zhou Yi said modestly: "I did this all to vent my anger on He Ying. It made them blind and let go of the top scorer of the Spanish League Two for nothing!"

He Ying made an eye-rolling expression.

"But He Ying is performing well in Valladolid now. After the season is over, Barcelona should move him to the first team, right?" Yang Muge asked.

"Must!" Guo Nu said. He was a little envious because he was also a die-hard Barcelona fan and hoped to return to Barcelona to play for him one day. But at present, he is too far away from this goal while playing 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 showed surprised expressions in the group. Only Zhou Yi said nothing because he could understand why He Ying said this, so he was not surprised by it. .

Faced with everyone's surprise, He Ying explained: "The competition for the first team's risks is too fierce. Even if I am transferred to the first team, I will be a substitute. Players like Tello and Pedro are now substitutes. I went I don’t know where to rank, 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 you may not be a substitute when you go back. Maybe you will be at first, but as long as you seize the opportunity, you can impress Guardiola." Guo Nu said. He still hopes that He Ying can play football in Barcelona. "Just like Lao Yang, you see, when he first joined the Schalke 04 first team, he was a substitute on the bench and didn't even have a chance to play. But now? He is already the main player."

"My situation is different from that of Lao Yang." He Ying explained. "I am the kind of player who needs the ball at my feet. I am a greater threat when I dribble the ball and shoot with the ball. And I play better in the center than on the wing. I played in the center at Valladolid, and I have a lot of ball rights, so I can score goals. But in the Barcelona first team, the offensive possession rights belong to Messi and Iniesta. If I go up, it will be more of a cover and a wall for Messi. Or whatever... I don't like that, that's not the way I want to play."

"Instead of sitting on the bench of Barcelona's first team for a few years before finding a way out, it would be better not to take that detour in the first place. I like Barcelona very much, but I have long since lost my illusions about it." He Ying finally said .

His words were a bit heavy. His friends knew how much he wanted to play in Barcelona at the beginning. He often used Catalan textbooks to learn the language, and he even started preparing for it earlier than that time.

He was once overjoyed to be able to enter the first training session of La Masia. He appeared in the pages of Chinese domestic media and was hailed as "the first Chinese man to capture La Masia". He was even more famous than Zhou Yi, who was still dormant in the Dortmund youth training camp. There is more scenery.

But in the end, he said that he no longer had illusions about Barcelona. The reality was so cruel that people didn't know what to say.

Just when there was a trend of silence in the group, Zhou Yi jumped out: "Save respect. I think He Ying is right. No one stipulates that those who come from La Masia must play in Barcelona, ​​nor does it stipulate that those who come from La Masia must play in Barcelona." Success is achieved by playing at Barcelona. All roads lead to success."

Everyone thinks Zhou Yi is right. None of them play in a wealthy club, but they are all working towards their dreams. It doesn't have to be in a wealthy club to realize their dreams.

"Thank you Zhou Yi." He Ying expressed his gratitude to Zhou Yi for his understanding. "But Barcelona is very difficult to deal with, they are very strong, you have to be careful..."

"I know." Zhou Yi said. "Of course Barcelona are strong, but it would be wrong if they weren't."

"That's a problem. It's so unlucky to face Barcelona. I thought you could move forward..." Yang Muge felt sorry for this. Although he is a player of the mortal enemy Schalke 04, he is now based on the Zhouyi I am talking about this as a friend.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi's reaction surprised him, including everyone else.

"Why can't we go further?" he asked.

"The opponent is Barcelona!" Guo Nu exclaimed. As a crazy fan of Barcelona, ​​he was completely exposed at this time.

"Yes, so what?" Zhou Yi continued to ask.

"How's it going? Team Universe, I'm just asking you if you're afraid!" Guo Nu said.

"Afraid of ghosts!" Zhou Yi replied. "If Barcelona were Team Cosmos, I would be Team Explosion!"

"What kind of joke is this?" Sun Pan couldn't understand. The Cosmos team is Barcelona, ​​and what does the Explosion team mean?

It was Yang Muge who helped him figure it out: "The Big Bang."

"What is that?" Sun Pan was still a little confused.

"In short, it means blowing up the universe!" Zhou Yi said.

"Oh, I understand." Sun Pan nodded.

"You can say nice things, but how do you win? Do you have any idea?" He Ying asked.

"No." Zhou Yi answered simply.

"Damn!" Sun Pan saw how confident Zhou Yi said before, and thought he already had a countermeasure, but it turned out that it was just talk... "No, what big talk are you talking about! If you don't show off, you will die!"

"You have to have confidence." Zhou Yi made a hand-spreading expression. "And the football is round, maybe we will win?"

"..." Sun Pan was speechless.

※※※

The first leg of the quarter-final between Dortmund and Barcelona was played on the evening of March 28th. Moreover, it starts at home and then away. For Dortmund, this is a very unfavorable schedule.

Now that there is still half a month left before this game, Dortmund can prepare well.

However, in the eyes of many people, no matter how prepared Dortmund is, it is no different than a death struggle.

Barcelona is so powerful...

This is the first thought that pops into many people's minds when they think of Barcelona.

It's human nature.

In other words, this is common sense for mortals.

Perhaps even Dortmund's own fans and players feel that being drawn against Barcelona is a very unlucky thing.

Of course, not everyone will think so.

When Zhou Yi and his teammates stood in front of a square, white house with no decorations, they were all confused.

Regarding this strange building, it has actually been built in Dortmund's training base a long time ago, but it has always been covered by dark mesh walls, and there is no sign outside the construction site. Everyone only knows that the training base is adding facilities, but I don’t know what the facility is, let alone what it is used for.

There were also some speculations among the players about this strange building. Some said it was a new gym, some said it was an institution similar to the Milan Laboratory, and some said it was a new restaurant. Anyone who guessed like this must be a foodie...

After today's training started, Klopp did not let the players start training on the training ground as usual, but instead brought the team to this mysterious building.

"What is this?" Someone stared at the house and couldn't help but ask.

Klopp pointed back at the mysterious building with his thumb and said to everyone: "This is our secret weapon to defeat the Cosmos!" (To be continued.)
