I Just Can Score

early morning.

Newcastle United dressing room.

As usual, Michael Owen came half an hour early. He leaned against the closet to organize his backpack, took out the clothes and folded them.

The door was pushed open.

Steven Taylor came in, he looked up and glanced at the locker room, and greeted Owen with a smile, "Michael, you came so early."

"Good morning!"

Owen turned his head and replied.

"Good morning!"

The two said hello to each other, and went about their own business, no one paid any attention to the other, but occasionally they would glance at each other, Owen said with confidence on his face, "I'm sorry, Steven .”

"There has never been absolute fairness in this world!"

the other side.

Tyler was thinking the same thing, and his expression was also relaxed, because in his opinion... Owen was as pure as a virgin.

This refers to private life.

Owen is a very good man, and his wife is a childhood friend of his childhood sweetheart. There is almost no emotional gossip about him in the news, which means that his private life is very healthy, and his family should be considered happy, right?

but……

"He determined his relationship early, how can he understand the happiness of being single?"

Then Taylor looked forward to joining the "lucky combination".

Taylor doesn't believe in "increasing luck". Zhen Shaolong, Milner, Barton, Nzobia and others performed well because of their strength, not luck. Before there was no lucky combination, Zhen Shaolong also maintained high efficiency. Miller Na, Nzobia, and Button are also the main force in the midfield.

Smith...

This combination is almost ineffective for him, because he is only a full-back, and no matter how many assists he goes forward, there is still a big gap between him and the midfielder.

Taylor thinks that the combination is very fun. Besides, he and Nzobia have the same thoughts, "I want to be the focus too! After joining, I will definitely increase my exposure!"

"In addition, I want to improve my status in the team!"

The latter is also important.

Since the start of the new season, Newcastle United has undergone great changes. Many players have left, and many are newcomers. Even the club's owner has changed. It can be said that it has changed a lot inside and out.

After careful observation, Taylor found that Zhen Shaolong was the most authoritative.

Followed by Barton, Smith.

The reason why Zhen Shaolong has authority is very simple. He is the best player in the team. If some teammates have conflicts with him, no matter who is right or wrong, the club will definitely favor him.

Of course.

Zhen Shaolong's temper is also good, and his personality is also a person who can be a friend. He will not take the initiative to have conflicts with others, but he must have the authority to show influence.

Button and Smith are two 'violent madmen'. English football can be said to be 'famous', and Button among them can be described as 'notorious'.

They have just entered the team, and none of their teammates dare to provoke them.

The combination of Zhen Shaolong, Patton and Smith naturally became the most authoritative combination in the dressing room. In the past, Taylor's status was not high. He came from the youth training of Newcastle United, but he is really young. Everyone in the team can say If you are a 'senior', you naturally have no right to speak.

Now he sees a chance for a change!

As long as he can hang out with Zhen Shaolong and others in the future, the team will be at the "first echelon" level, and his words will definitely carry more weight.

In this regard, you can refer to Nzobia.

Nzobia has always been a "transparent person" in the locker room, but after joining the group, his words have become more weighty, as if he has attracted attention immediately, and Taylor also hopes to achieve a similar effect.

————

As time passed, the locker room quickly became much more lively.

Zhen Shaolong and others have all arrived.

Those who came early waited in the locker room, waiting for the last Smith to arrive. Under the expectant eyes of Owen and Taylor, Zhen Shaolong immediately organized a voting activity, "How about this, everyone names the names they support, and a simple count will do."

"First...Joy!"

"Steven!"

"One vote for Steven!" Zhen Shaolong pointed a finger,

Asked Smith, "What about you? Alan."

Smith glanced at Owen, hesitated and said, "I abstain. Yes, I can't decide. Steven and Michael are both good teammates of mine."

Owen was startled, with a bad premonition.

"Okay. Next up is Charles."

"I support Steven." Nzobia whispered, and looked at Owen apologetically.

"James?"

Milner said without hesitation, "I support Steven!"

Four votes.

Two voted for Taylor and two abstained.

The result is obvious.

Owen finally couldn't help but explode, and asked Milner angrily, "James! Didn't you agree to support me yesterday!"

Milner shrank his neck, but he mustered up the courage to explain, "But riding a horse is not attractive. I prefer to ride a woman."

"Steven promised to introduce me to local beauties, either female students at school or single white-collar workers. You know, we usually don't have access to these women..."

It's kind of a sad thing.

A professional footballer who has made a name for himself is a real public figure. It seems that he has been divorced from the public, and reporters may follow him when he goes out. It is difficult to meet ordinary women of the same age.

Taylor was different.

Taylor grew up in Newcastle. He is a native of Newcastle, so he naturally has many channels.

Milner couldn't resist the temptation.

Owen is defeated!

Between riding a horse and riding a woman, Milner decisively chose the latter, and Owen asked himself that he would also choose the latter.

Then Owen looked at Smith depressed, and Smith said, "Steven invited us to the Christmas bachelor party. There will be many beauties, not celebrities or models, but ordinary beauties. By the way, there will also be girls organized by fans. Cheerleaders, I don't know which is better, so I have to abstain."

"Ok!"

Zhen Shaolong glanced at Milner and Smith with contempt, and concluded, "This is a victory for ordinary people, it is great!"

Then he patted Owen on the shoulder and comforted, "Although Steven invited me, I still decided to vote for you!"

Owen rolled his eyes, feeling extremely depressed.

After the voting was over and Zhen Shaolong announced that Taylor would become the "first substitute in the group", Owen was very unwilling to think about it, and he gave away a thousand pounds and a lot of phone calls for nothing.

no!

Owen immediately walked up to Taylor, took a deep breath and asked, "By the way, when and where is your party? Can I attend?"

"Of course." Taylor asked puzzledly after finishing speaking, "But I organized a bachelor party, and only single players participated."

"You mean, Alain is single?"

"He doesn't have a regular girlfriend."

"I would also like to attend."

"But everyone knows that you are not single?"

"It doesn't matter. On that day, I said that I went to the party with Zhen. Louise has a good impression of Zhen. She thinks we should be friends. She will definitely agree."

"……Ok."

Taylor agreed.

Owen went to the training ground satisfied, and thought about it on the way. For some reason, he felt that Taylor's eyes at the end were strange.

————

two days later.

Newcastle United travel to London to challenge Fulham.

It was the last game before Christmas, and Allardyce's way of motivating the team was, "As long as we can win, add an extra day off!"

This is very useful.

There is no winter break in the English Premier League. After Christmas, the games are more intensive. Newcastle United’s schedule is not too tight. There are three games to be played in less than ten days from Christmas to early January. It will definitely be There are no holidays.

It is quite tempting to have an extra day off for Christmas.

Everyone wants to spend Christmas with their families, and they don't want to rush to practice on Christmas, and they are very active in the game.

Because the interval from the previous game was too short and the weather was getting colder, Allardyce considered Zhen Shaolong's physical recovery, and in addition to preparing for the intensive Christmas schedule, Zhen Shaolong only rested on the bench. duka.

Button and Nzobia were also substitutes. Grami replaced Button and Damien Duff, who had just returned from injury, led the offensive on the left.

Button is better, just a normal rotation.

Nzobia was a little worried.

Damien Duff is a former Chelsea star. He was once called "Perfect Wings" together with Robben. He has strong experience and strength. After Damien Duff returns, he will definitely pose a huge challenge to his appearance. .

In this game, Damien Duff was still recovering and did not show a very good state. Milner's right was still active. He led the right offensive and hit the ball to a threatening position again and again, which also helped Newcastle United scored the first goal.

The second goal was completed by Viduka. Gremi picked a pass from the penalty area in the middle, and Viduka successfully helped the team score with a header.

Newcastle United have not scored since then.

Fulham's defense is very good, Newcastle United has an advantage in the situation, but it still depends on luck and performance to score.

In the second half, Fulham used a counterattack to catch up with a goal, but eventually lost the game at home.

1 to 2.

Newcastle won their last game after Christmas.

This is a very ordinary victory, but also a very crucial victory, because in the same game, Arsenal lost to Middlesbrough away and failed to score points.

Newcastle United surpassed Arsenal in points and returned to the top of the league table.

When the round ended, almost all media reports revolved around Newcastle United's return to the top of the league table.

In the opening stage, Newcastle United used their winning streak and big score to occupy the top of the league table. Then, as the media predicted, their performance gradually deteriorated. They failed to win two or three games and were overtaken by Arsenal.

The media predicted that Newcastle United's ranking would be getting lower and lower, but they did not expect that they would be able to rank first again.

Newcastle United's first place also allowed them to win the 'half championship'. The Guardian happily expressed support and said, "Newcastle United deserves to win the half championship. They have the craziest shooters. Zhen Shaolong has already scored two Seventeen league goals!"

"They also have the best assist player, Joey Barton, and the 12 assist data is also quite gorgeous."

"Newcastle United scored 50 goals in the half, with an average of 2.7 goals in a single game. They are the team with the strongest attack power."

There is a statistic in the "Guardian" that did not say that Newcastle United conceded 23 goals, which is also a bit pitiful. The average conceded goals in a single game is nearly 1.3, and it can only rank in the middle of the league.

Other media also immediately discussed the "half-time summary". Newcastle United ranked first in the league and must be the best performing team, but the performance of other teams is also worthy of praise.

Such as Arsenal, Manchester United.

Both Arsenal and Manchester United performed very steadily and won most of the games. The reason why they ranked second and third was that they lost the head-on collision with Newcastle United.

The performance of the players is also the focus of the half-time summary. "British Football News" selected the best team for the half-time. Zhen Shaolong and Milner are both in the lineup. It is a pity that Button did not make the list. Button has a lot of assists, but most of his assists are due to Zhen Shaolong's good performance, not how subtle his assists are."

Barton looked a little sad at the report.

When the media was making a summary, the most important piece of news was suddenly disclosed, and it immediately became the focus of public opinion--

"Zhen Shaolong signed with Adidas and got a sky-high endorsement contract."
