Chapter 123
The Rhine Football Newspaper is a small circulation but well-known newspaper in Manchester that tells gossip about football.
In today's front-page headline, a photo of Chen Huan and Rooney standing on the pitch was published, but in the photo. Yang was printed with a huge thunder symbol, which at first glance seemed as if thunder divided the two into different spaces.
At the top of the photo, there is a line of large and eye-catching letters.
"Manchester United rising star suspected of breaking with captain Wayne Rooney!"
Underneath the eye-catching headlines is the speculation of the reporter of this article based on the performance of the two people on the field and some unusual actions of Rooney recently.
This even quotes a lot of rumors that have gone viral on the Internet, and the reporter's full text has only one main theme - Rooney has broken with Chen Huan, and now the two have been in a fight in the locker room, and even the problem has become so serious that the club must choose one of the two to stay and let the other leave.
This article, which was mixed with a large number of rumors, personal speculation, and conjecture, was quickly reposted on the Internet, and then this article began to become popular on the Internet.
"Is this true? Oh my God, no wonder Rooney hasn't been getting a chance to start lately. "
Yes, I have a friend who interned at Manchester United and said that Chen and Wayne Rooney fought in the dressing room and Rooney didn't win and was thrown to the bench by the coach."
"Don't listen to the upstairs, Rooney is just in bad shape! Don't spread rumors! "
......
This article, which caused a lot of heated discussion on the Internet, quickly attracted the attention of Manchester United officials, and on the morning of training day, Van Gaal was taken by the club. Xi called out for the meeting.
The first-team players and staff seemed to understand something, and United's otherwise relaxed training atmosphere quickly froze.
Carrington Training Base.
The afternoon sun seemed to dispel the winter cold, Chen Huan received a pass from Carrick, turned to face De Gea in front of the goal with the ball, and the ankle swung continuously, and after the deceived De Gea handed over the center of his body, he shook the instep of his ankle and shot the ball into the goal.
"Damn, you lied to me again." De Gea said in a low voice as he got up from the ground.
"Accepted."
De Gea was about to say something more, but it suddenly stopped, he lowered his head and began to tie the laces of his sneakers.
"Chen." A slightly muffled male voice sounded from behind him.
Chen Huan turned his head and saw Rooney standing about a meter behind him, lowering his head and tapping the ground with the tip of his shoe.
"Rooney, what's the matter?" Chen Huanhu asked suspiciously, this is the first time Rooney has taken the initiative to speak to him since Chen Huan became the core of Manchester United's attacking end.
"Are you free tomorrow?" My wife Colleen wants to invite you and Timothy to my house for dinner, she has good craftsmanship, maybe..." Rooney was only halfway through his words, but stopped and looked in the other direction with Chen Huan.
Coach Louis van Gaal has returned and is walking towards the two.
"What to talk about?" Van Gaal squeezed a smile, but it was clearly not sincere.
"Rooney invited me to his house for dinner," Chen Huan replied honestly.
"Is this something you should talk about on the training ground?" Van Gaal's eyebrows trembled slightly, and his tone had become stern.
"Nope." Rooney replied.
"Then hurry up and go to training!" Van Gaal raised his voice and roared.
Chen Huan and Rooney quickly ran away.
Van Gaal turned his head and glanced at the other players and team staff who were whispering, and then roared again, "Say they didn't say you?" Right away, do what you have to do, I don't want to say these words a third time!
"Yes." The players all ran away quickly.
Van Gaal tilted his head and suddenly grinned softly at an angle that no one could see, but this smile was genuine.
When Rooney took the initiative to communicate with Chen Huan, it meant that some problems were being solved, which was definitely a good signal.
......
In front of the door of the garden villa, Timothy turned his head and whispered to Chen Huan before knocking on the door: "There are reporters."
"Got it."
Timothy knocked lightly three times, and only for a moment, the cherry wood courtyard door was opened from the inside, and Rooney stood in front of the door with her wife Colleen.
The two women greeted with a smile, while Chen Huan just nodded lightly with Rooney.
"Please come in." Rooney made an inviting gesture inward, and then led Chen Huan into their villa.
The villa's restaurant is full of delicious food, which of course is healthy for professional footballers.
Timothy seemed to have known Colleen before, and of course perhaps because the two women were familiar with each other, and they quickly laughed over a topic.
Seeing this, Chen Huan and Rooney, two men who had nothing to say, looked at each other, and both shook their heads with a smile.
At the end of the meal, Colleen pulled Timothy to visit the back garden, and the two women ran away, leaving behind the men who were both a little restrained and embarrassed.
"Hey, we..." Rooney spoke first, trying to find something to talk about.
"You want to talk to me about the team, right?" Chen Huan didn't want to go around the corner, he looked at Rooney and asked directly.
Rooney was slightly stunned, then nodded.
"Listen," Chen Huan said not tactfully, but straightforwardly, "Actually, I don't care what you think, or what your status in the Manchester United team is, etc... The club has paid me over £10 million in wages, so all I care about this season is whether we can lift the league trophy.
"What? Wait a minute? Let's rethink our thinking, you think... Win the league? Rooney felt a little unable to keep up with Chen Huan's train of thought.
"Yes, I want the league title, right this season." Chen Huan repeated what he had just said.
"We've beaten Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, why can't we pick up the league?"
Rooney was stunned again when he heard Chen Huan say this, as if he had suddenly woken up or something.
Yes, Manchester United, although they finished sixth last season, have crawled out of the quagmire of a bad start this season and have finished in the top four.
The Premier League title seems to be something to look forward to.
Rooney suddenly felt very ashamed, his salary was much higher than Chen Huan, but he let his state decline so much because the other party was somewhat similar to Ronaldo.
"Yes, you're right, our goal this season is to win the league."
