In a conference room, Paolo Maldini cannot catch Dejan Lu.
At this time, he didn't dare to run hard for fear of falling.
Also, it is not as flexible as Dejan Lu.
Paolo Maldini almost cried.
Although I didn't write too many bad things about my teammates, it is my own diary after all, and I will definitely make complaints based on my own thoughts.
Now that the diary is exposed, he and his teammates can only keep one.
"Dejan, please return it to me quickly!"
Seeing his teammates coming over, Paolo Maldini shouted anxiously.
Dejan Lu smiled and waved the diary.
I didn't want to complain to the whole team, but Paolo Maldini jumped like this, so he couldn't take it back easily.
"What do you want, just make a condition."
Paolo Maldini said resignedly.
Let's get the diary back first.
"I haven't thought about it yet, but I feel that brushing sneakers is a bit difficult. I'm thinking about learning a new way to brush sneakers recently." Dejan Lu tilted his head and said.
"I'll come, I'll come, I'll give you three months of training next season!"
Paolo Maldini said quickly.
"Forget it, I feel like you're reluctant Paolo. I'm not out of touch with the masses. If my teammates can clean their shoes, so can I." Dejan Lu joked.
"I like to brush shoes. I have liked to brush shoes since I was a child. In this way, for half, no, one season, wouldn't it be okay for me to brush your sneakers next season?"
Paolo Maldini assured.
"No one forces you. Do you really like to clean your shoes?"
Dejan Lu asked.
"I like it, I like it. I've liked cleaning shoes since I was a child. If I wasn't playing football, I would set up a shoe shine stall, just for a hobby!" Paolo Maldini said casually.
"Paolo, then help me clean my shoes too."
Costacurta stretched out his hand and shouted.
"Get out!"
Paolo Maldini said angrily.
Only ghosts like to brush shoes.
But for the diary, he must pay something.
We can't let the diary be exposed and become the public enemy of the whole team.
"Okay, it's settled."
Dejan Lu walked over and handed the diary to Paolo Maldini and said, "Look how much I trust you, I don't even need you to write a contract."
Paolo Maldini rolled his eyes angrily and immediately clipped the diary to his waistband. If someone wanted to snatch it from him, he would put it directly in his crotch.
Although it is a bit embarrassing to hide a diary in your crotch, it is better than being beaten to death by the whole team.
Paolo Maldini swears that I will burn all my diaries when I get back and never fucking write again!
This time, he has been working for the apprenticeship period. When he was first promoted to the first team, he would brush the shoes of Big Brother.
But brushing a pair of shoes is actually not that strenuous.
When punished or young people help, they usually brush many pairs.
This thing mainly smells, but it's not very difficult and doesn't waste time.
The players who were watching the excitement started to boo when they saw that there was no chance.
I thought Dejan Lu would announce some breaking news in the diary.
"Dejan, tell us what's interesting in the diary?"
Costacurta directly put his arm around Dejan Lu's shoulders and said, "I always read his writing before, and he was careful not to read it to me. Did he say bad things about us?"
"No, but Paolo wrote that he likes to smell smelly socks. He always takes off his socks when he gets home and smells them."
Dejan Lu said.
"I didn't..."
Paolo Maldini was about to explain, but then he shut up.
Just smell the smelly socks.
If we really deny Dejan Lu's statement, maybe there will be something else waiting for him.
"Really or not, Paolo still has this hobby?"
Verchowod asked.
"Don't act like you are so clean. After Italian Cup kicked Cagliari last time, I saw you holding up your socks and smelling them." Rossi said from the side.
"Be careful, smelling smelly socks can easily lead to lung infection."
Dejan Lu reminded.
"Really?"
Several people asked at the same time.
Dejan Lu:...
"Of course it's true. Even sniffing stockings can lead to infection. I've seen the news before. When the time came, because of this news, it was in the newspapers, and the whole of Europe knew about the weird habits of Milan players."
Dejan Lu joked.
Most people seem to have done this, just smell it and see if it smells bad.
But it's not right to do this all the time.
Seeing that his teammates no longer cared about the diary, Paolo Maldini also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was forced to buy Dejan Lu sneakers for a season, he was lucky that he was not beaten to death by the whole team.
Just the few paragraphs he described about the Baresi family made the old captain break off their friendship with him.
Paolo Maldini doesn't think there's anything wrong with what he wrote.
The child was the result of an affair with the old captain's wife. He specifically inquired about this matter and found out that there was only a small chance that the two people had black ancestors. However, the child's appearance did not conform to genetics and had nothing to do with Baresi. It was absolutely impossible to be his biological child after a paternity test.
Is this a problem? no problem!
But Baresi and his teammates emphasized that the child was his biological child.
If Baresi really sees the diary, he will probably beat him up and break off the relationship.
He also has to thank Dejan Lu for showing mercy.
At least he didn't say he liked playing with Barbie dolls or had a fetish for cross-dressing.
Today, as long as Dejan Lu doesn't say that he is the Alien or wants to destroy the world, he will have to admit it.
The current situation is actually a good one.
Looking at it this way, Dejan Lu is not just a lie.
I should thank Dejan Lu when I have time.
Today's swimming was not disturbed, it was good because the team had booked the hotel.
Dejan Lu Unexpectedly, Milan Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has many swimming experts on the team.
He grew up by the sea, but he didn't rank among the top three in the 100-meter freestyle.
This guy has two fucking brushes.
Normally, Milanello can't compare to Dejan Lu on its side, but in the water it becomes even more powerful.
Buffon handed Dejan Lu a glass of orange juice somewhat depressedly.
He just wanted to show off when he got into the water, but unexpectedly he got cramps and drank several sips of water.
"Dejan, I just suddenly feel uncomfortable with this water temperature. Cold water is better." Buffon explained.
"I didn't mean to laugh at you Gigi, but it's hard to understand that an athlete didn't warm up enough." Dejan Lu said while holding back a laugh.
Buffon had a black face.
A good swimmer drowns in water.
He relied on his good physical fitness, so he didn't warm up seriously. He was anxious to go down and show off, but he didn't expect to get cramps as soon as he went down.
Totti, who had just come up, shook Buffon with both hands and immediately mocked. "Isn't this our Gianluigi·Buffon who can't swim? Albania is a country by the sea. You should be the only player in football who can't swim."
Swimming has long been considered a good way to assist training. Athletes in many sports use swimming to relax or perform some light training.
There should be almost no people who can't swim playing football.
Buffon took a sip of juice depressedly.
Fortunately, there were no reporters here, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.
"There are still a few days until the game. Will the coach give us a day off and let us go out and have some fun?"
Totti asked.
There are still many fun places in a big city like Munich.
"Dream?"
Buffon said angrily, "Even I know the coach will definitely not let us go out."
To avoid accidents before the competition, you still need to be as cautious as possible.
Even in the hotel, people will remind you not to get hurt.
This unfamiliar person asked you to go out shopping. If you are really hurt, why don't you get angry?
Totti shook his head with regret.
He still wants to Munich go around again.
The players all go back to rest in the evening.
Dejan Lu got up and took a look, it was only June 2nd, and the final was on June 5th.
There is still plenty of time.
No wonder the Little Prince wants to go out for a walk.
How can any team train continuously for so many days?
Over breakfast, Sacchi announced that he would not train in the morning and would adapt to the venue in the afternoon. He was also reducing the amount of training for AC Milan.
Next is the summer vacation and the transfer period, and the season is about to end. We won't train the same as during the season. That is training content to prepare for frequent games.
Suddenly having a half-day holiday, Milan players are still not used to it.
The hotel was full of Milan players doing nothing.
Sacchi Families are not allowed into the hotel, and the players are wasting their energy.
Soon they started playing in various entertainment facilities in twos and threes.
Even Baresi, who trained very hard, did not go to the gym for more training.
At this time, reasonable training is better than additional training.
"I'm tired of playing pool."
Redondo complained.
He often played with this thing when he was at home, playing alone.
There was a time when he wanted to play professionally, but unfortunately his snooker skills were average.
Unexpectedly, after playing football, I would play table tennis all day long.
Playing in the club and playing on the road.
"How about we go play poker?"
Dejan Lu asked.
"How about playing chess, Chinese chess."
Redondo suggested.
"Okay, call the front desk and ask for a pair." Dejan Lu said.
He really hasn't played chess for a long time.
Redondo The second generation is really not simple. Chinese chess is not as popular in China as international chess in the world. People play it only if they are particularly fond of Chinese culture or have immigrants nearby.
This is a question of cultural export.
After Dejan Lu made the call, he looked at Redondo and said, "You know a lot of things. Does your father like Chinese culture?"
"I bought a pair after reading the introduction in the book and played with it for a while."
Redondo said with a smile, "It feels very similar to chess. It is said that both chess originated from Chaturanga in India."
"Then you are wrong. The Chinese academic community does not recognize this."
Dejan Lu said.
He was quite curious about the origins of the two kinds of chess, and always thought that Marco Polo brought them to Europe.
Later I learned that the earliest unearthed chess was Tang Baoying chess. The earlier ones were not close to the current version, but it also proved that Chinese chess did not originate from India.
Maybe India's style comes from China or something similar.
However, there are no outstanding cultural relics of similar chess equipment before the Tang Dynasty, so we cannot be too sure. This is one of the reasons why archeology is important.
Lest everything be snatched away by other countries and said to be their invention.
It didn't take long for the hotel to send chess.
Dejan Lu and Redondo simply started playing on the sofa next to the pool table, not bothering to go back to the room.
"You go first."
Dejan Lu said.
Be more generous when playing with foreigners.
Redondo nodded, took the red piece and placed it on the chessboard, which also proved that he did understand Chinese chess.
Dejan Lu was a little surprised when the back cannon was set up to draw two and four. The official cannon can be said to be a very stable start, which is somewhat unlike Redondo's style.
This position is destined to require the protection of a horse for the middle soldier. Dejan Lu is directly the first cannon with two cannons and five cannons. Both of them start with cannons.
In this situation, if you don't want to lose the pawn, Redondo can only advance from eight to seven with knights.
The two men started a battle of wits and courage around this soldier.
It has to be said that people who are good at reading have a brush when playing intellectual games, and their brains can convert words into graphics.
Redondo little pawns are flying.
In the first game, two people played fifty-six rounds, and Dejan Lu used veteran checkmate Redondo.
A foreigner with this skill can at least go downstairs to enjoy the bar after dinner.
If you want to play with the old man, it's still almost impossible.
After all, playing with the old man at Dejan Lu's level is just giving away food.
Apart from genius, chess is just hard work. If you don't memorize chess records, you have to rely on experience. The more you play and the more you lose, the higher your level will be.
Redondo obviously has no fighting experience, but his talent is really not bad.
In the second game, the two of them had to go through 72 rounds, and Redondo lost.
Buffon and Totti watched the battle for a while.
Buffon said, "Let me try it, I already know how to do it."
Dejan Lu quickly stood up and gave up his position. Redondo gave him a sad look.
Based on the education level of these two people, 80% of them are not good at board games.
Whoever gives up the position, the other will be tortured.
Dejan Lu decisively chose to follow the heart.
Playing chess with a novice is asking for trouble for yourself.
Soon it became a battle between Totti and Buffon, and the two were evenly matched.
Many teammates came over to watch the game.
"Chess is quite popular." Redondo curled his lips and said.
"No matter where you are, foreign things are more novel."
Dejan Lu said.
Compared with chess, Chinese chess has specialized defensive pieces and a larger space. It is better for novices. Even if you don't know how to play, you won't die in the first few moves.
Chess is very offensive, and you can really get defeated in the first few moves. It is almost impossible for novices and entry-level players to play dozens of rounds.
Chinese chess briefly became popular in Milan and kept the team occupied all morning.
Costacurta, who is studying for a master's degree, is obviously more powerful than other teammates.
This is not to say that this thing is linked to academic qualifications. If you learn well, you can often get exercise in logical thinking, reasoning ability, observation and memory, etc. These are the basic qualities required for chess and card games. In the initial trial stage, you are still better than other teammates.
Totti This kid is yelling and screaming while playing.
If he hadn't been so bad, Dejan Lu would have wanted to use DV to help him film a "Chess Soul" movie.
There were no problems in the afternoon training, but the Milan team heard something interesting on the way back. Ronaldo's agent complimented Milan during the interview.
There is nothing wrong with such remarks, but the timing is obviously inappropriate.
Considering that his agent is a scam, it's not surprising that this would happen.
Ferguson is going to have a headache.
Manchester United is obviously in more trouble.
Those old guys Robson don't have many demands, and Class of '92 is even more obedient. They basically didn't have an agent when they were players, or they didn't have high salary requirements.
Gary·Neville I signed the last contract after 2010 without looking at the amount. This is simply a fairy tale for subsequent players.
Little Neville had no position and low salary, and it was Ferguson who persuaded him to leave the team.
Not only are the youth training levels of this group high, they basically didn't cause any trouble as players.
Even Giggs has no problem as a player and is actually quite outstanding.
This makes Ferguson basically not suffer from the agent.
Scotland The old man finally met a problem person.
No matter what Ronaldo's agent wants to do, Ferguson won't like what he does.
Sacchi Sometimes he really should give a thumbs up to the Milan players. No one in the team gave him trouble for a whole season. This is not easy for a wealthy club.
With all the scandals and chaos going on in Milan this season, it is estimated that they did not lend their training base to Milan's home team for more than a week.
Milan's preparations are in order and they are getting closer and closer to the Champions League final.
On June 4, the entire Milan team got a day off, and all training ended by going to the field in the evening.
Dejan Lu It was rare for me to take a late nap, and it was already past ten in the morning when I got up.
"Morning, Dejan."
After Dejan Lu washed up, he opened the door and saw Totti setting up a chessboard at the door of his room.
"Francesco, what are you doing?"
Dejan Lu bent down and asked.
"They were jealous of my talent and didn't want to play with me anymore."
Totti said firmly, "I have improved very quickly, so they are all afraid of losing to me."
Dejan Lu:...
Are you sure that's what happened?
"What about Gigi?"
Dejan Lu asked.
As soon as Buffon was mentioned, Totti immediately slapped the ground and complained, "That guy beat me once and stopped playing. He is as childish as a child in kindergarten."
Hahaha.
Dejan Lu agrees with this.
But the Little Prince is not much better.
"Right Dejan."
Totti stood up and said excitedly, "I read the newspaper this morning and you were in the top five of the most handsome players of both teams, and so was I!"
"That's really good."
Dejan Lu asked, "Who is on the list?"
"You, me, Baggio, and forgot."
Totti said after waving his fingers for a long time.
"I'm going to have dinner, do you want to come with me?"
Dejan Lu asked.
"Forget it, I'm also going to study a new opening to make sure no one has ever used it." Totti shook his head and said.
Dejan Lu walked to the elevator without striking the Little Prince.
Chess openings are poorly studied and no one has ever used them unless you move two pieces at once.
Dejan Lu took the sandwich and coffee and sat down with the newspaper.
It turns out that "The Sun" made a list first, and "La Gazzetta dello Sport" followed suit.
The top five of "The Sun" are Beckham, Dejan the Football King, Baggio, Giggs, and Cantona.
There are more Manchester United players here, and Italy people are obviously not happy, so they made a list themselves, which are: Baggio, Dejan the Football King, Totti, Paolo Maldini, Beckham.
It can only be said that neither side is very objective, but Dejan the Football King successfully occupied the second position.
This is definitely because they all put players from their own countries first.
Otherwise, with more than 40 players, Dejan the Football King would not have failed to win first place twice.
In the second edition of "La Gazzetta dello Sport", Dejan Lu also saw someone showing love to the Little Prince.
Maria Massa said in an interview, "I have always liked Francesco·Totti. His eyes are very charming, and his performance on the court is also very good. Totti is a fighter."
Dejan Lu curled his lips.
Maybe this is really true love.
This is the Little Prince's girlfriend before Brasi. Unexpectedly, Totti left Rome early and was still attracted by her.
It can only mean that the Little Prince is more in line with her aesthetics.
There were a lot of other random displays of affection.
There are many smart women who want to shine in the Champions League final.
Others said they didn't care that Baggio was already married.
Dejan Lu decided to bring this newspaper with him next time he went to Baggio's house as a guest.
On the contrary, the report of "Bild newspaper" is very interesting. They wrote a special article about the comparison of the strength of the two teams, and belittled Manchester United as worthless.
Obviously looking for trouble.
Even with Dejan the Football King, this Manchester United is not an easy opponent to deal with.
Being able to step on Juventus, who has new medicine, to enter the finals is not an ordinary feat.
Compared with these things, Dejan Lu is more curious about whether Ferguson will change his tactics in the finals.
Manchester United has frequently changed tactics and formations in cup matches before.
Obviously, coach Scotland is making some attempts.
Based on Dejan Lu's understanding of Ferguson, he might actually have a new arrangement.
In addition to some newspapers today, Dejan Lu also saw newspapers from other countries yesterday.
The professor said in an interview, "The game between Manchester United and AC Milan will be very exciting. Both teams are very strong and rely heavily on the wings. Manchester United has changed this season, but the strength has not dropped much. However, facing AC Milan with Dejan, I am still not optimistic that they can win the championship."
Dejan Lu couldn't help laughing.
No wonder those two old men could fight.
The professor regarded Manchester United as his rival and would attack whenever he found an opportunity. With Ferguson's character, it's strange that he doesn't hold grudges.
This interview is a very obvious example. At the end, he specifically said that he did not want to see Manchester United win, but he was not optimistic about AC Milan winning. Obviously, he wanted to see Ferguson's team lose, rather than thinking that Milan was stronger.
As long as Manchester United loses the game, the professor doesn't care who Manchester United's opponent is.
During this time, these people have been causing trouble for Ferguson.
When coach Scotland frees up his hands, he will definitely find a way to bleed.
Sipping coffee and slowly reading the newspaper, after breakfast, Dejan Lu went to the waiter and asked, "Do you have those kind of scratch card lottery tickets?"
"The hotel doesn't have it, but Munich sells it."
the waiter said.
Dejan Lu handed over a large bill and said, "Buy me one with the largest denomination. I want to try my luck. The rest is a tip."
Looking at the $100 bill, the waiter didn't hesitate.
It would be disrespectful to Franklin to think about it for a second longer.
The things were delivered to Dejan Lu's room in the afternoon.
A scratch card with denominations of 5 Mark and 10 Mark is pretty good at getting things done.
At this time, 1 Mark is approximately equal to $0.64.
After the merger of the two Germanys, Germany's economy was in some chaos. In recent years, its development has not even been as good as Italy. The weakness of the economy is also reflected in the exchange rate.
The biggest prize is 10,000 Mark.
Just match the numbers in the scratch-off area with the numbers below.
Dejan Lu thought for a moment and put the things in his bag to try his luck before the game tomorrow.
