While Chelsea was advancing, the city of London finally had his news reports.

Times - Today, Chinese Zheng Zhi finally gave up his crutch and walked on the road like a normal person. Perhaps, he doesn't have to wait for a season to come back? This is not good news for Arsenal.

However, the Arsenal coach smiled after seeing the news. He said in an interview with Sky Sports TV: "What's scary about us?"

"The whole Premier League will be scared, but Arsenal will not be scared. We are unbeaten in 13 games now, and no one can defeat us. And we are about to welcome Chelsea, and we will kill them."

“We are invincible this year.”

Wenger is really confident this year and doesn't take other matches seriously. His old opponent Manchester United has not brought pressure to Arsenal. Chelsea? Even if the coach is Mourinho...

But then Wenger said the truth, "Okay, if the Chinese return to Chelsea, it would be a huge variable, but it is obvious that he is recovering from injury now. I know that this disease is terrible, and it is impossible to make a comeback in a hurry... See you next season!"

"But I still want to say that the Christmas schedule is coming, Chelsea will fall behind, they may beat Manchester United, but they may not be able to continue in this state..."

Unexpectedly, Chelsea fans did not respond much to the news about Zheng Zhi.

Outside Stamford Bridge Stadium, a Chelsea fan was asked by a Times reporter about Zheng Zhi's opinion, and he replied: "First of all, congratulations on his preparation for coming back, but to be honest, I am very worried now that once he comes back, it will destroy the balance of the team. We now have an invincible team, and we have almost no failures this season, which shows that this team is quite mature. I know that the Chinese were once the number one person in the world, but the future... after all, it is the future, and I am conservative about this."

Then the Times interviewed another fan, and the fan's words were very tactful: "Of course we welcome his return, but now Marklele, Lampard and Perron are doing a great job, and it may take him to get used to it for a while when he comes back."

"I hope he can make a comeback at the end of the season. We need a strong bench thickness!"

Head coach Mourinho also talked about Zheng Zhi, "It's too early to talk about his comeback now. We are all focusing on our own affairs. Until that day comes, I firmly believe that as long as you are a healthy Zheng Zhi, you will be the strongest Zheng Zhi, and there is no doubt about this."

Then he talked about Chelsea again: "Chelsea is still a little pony now, not a favorite to win the championship, whether it is the league or the Champions League..."

"Arsenal is strong, but he can't win the whole season..."

...

Zheng Zhi also saw a lot of reactions from England on Sohu. He had both positive and negative comments, but his mentality was still very peaceful. He was at his age and had never experienced any bad things?

As Wenger expected, Chelsea was still extremely fierce, killing Manchester United 1:0, but then tied by Leeds United 1:1.

This is the cruelty of the Christmas schedule.

Chelsea lost in the third game, losing 1:2 to Bolton. The second defeat in the league allowed them to slip directly to third place, with Manchester United coming from behind and ranking behind Arsenal.

Chelsea's form began to become unstable. Although he beat Fulham 1:0, he lost to Charlton 2:4 away and defeated Portsmouth 3:0.

But Manchester United always ranked second.

New Year's Day in 2004 finally arrived.

Zheng Zhi flew from Chenyang to the capital, and then flew from the capital to France. Accompanied by Mendes and Wu Di, he will attend the 2003 Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Originally, he was the most promising candidate to win the Golden Globes and World Footballer, but he only played for the first half of the year!

Of course, the advantages will never exist.

Now, the most popular one is the Czech Nedved, who is only ranked second in the odds of winning the Golden Globes.

Arsenal's Henry ranked third in odds.

His arrival finally attracted the attention of European media reporters.

"French Football" did not interview him before the award ceremony. He made an album for him. Zheng Zhi knew that he would not win the Golden Globe, but he still came to participate in the award ceremony.

Zheng Zhi was interviewed at the entrance of the French TV station.

"Zheng, are you confident of winning this Golden Globe?"

Zheng Zhi smiled, "If I were not injured, I think I would win it with confidence, but now I think it should be Nedved or Henry who won the award."

“Lost?”

"I can't always have good luck, I can't always have bad luck, right? It's fair, I can't always win the Golden Globe."

Zheng Zhi was very calm. Life had ups and downs, good and bad, and fate was already good enough for him.

"You have such a good attitude. When do you expect to return to the court?"

"It's about half a year left. I've made a long-term recovery plan now, but I'm definitely not going to take risks."

"Do you weigh 200 pounds?"

"No, I've actually lost a few pounds, and when I could walk alone, I started losing weight because I wanted to get back to the court as fast as possible."

"What if it cannot return to its peak in previous years?"

"There is nothing to do, but I will do my best..."

...

※※※

In the TV reception room, Zheng Zhi met Nedved and Henry. After they arrived, they immediately gave Zheng Zhi a thick hug and then blessed Zheng Zhi.

The awards began. Unexpectedly, Nedved won the Golden Globe Award, but unexpectedly, Henry ranked second and Zheng Zhi was only third.

Zheng Zhi could let go, there was no pain, but Henry was different, his eyes were full of loss and pain.

Missed the goal.

But who told him that he was unable to lead Arsenal to the Champions League final? Although he led Arsenal to the top of the standings with an unbeaten record this season, his personal league goals not only led England, but also led the European Golden Boot list.

Nedved's comments were also modest.

"I think if Zheng was not injured, this honor would not belong to me. He was the perfect champion, and I was very lucky. But I know Zheng would definitely return to this stage, maybe at the end of this year or early next year, or at the end of next year, soon..."

The camera immediately hit Zheng Zhi, who clapped his palm with a smile...

"I also think Henry deserves to win the Golden Ball Award. He performed so well in England and he deserves the Golden Ball Award."

Henry was laughing too, but he just smiled and didn't. He looked quite uncomfortable...

"I don't feel very honored to come here to receive the award as the runner-up of the Champions League. All I can do is to lead Juventus to the finals again this year and bring the Big Ear Cup back to Turin."
