It's cheating, but Hazard

Chapter 195 Chapter 193 Minotaur vs. Pure Love Warrior (Daily Transition)

On March 3, Charles was completely free from crutches and Barcelona won 15-3 at home against Valencia.

Just three days later, Barcelona faced Stuttgart at home.

Charles and Ibrahimovic both sat on the bench.

Messi scored twice, Pedro and Bojan scored one goal each, and Barcelona finally won with a score of 5:1.

As soon as the game was over, after Valdés returned to the locker room, Charles went straight to him.

"What did you say?"

Valdez looked at Ciel with a puzzled look.

"It's the hairstyle manual you showed Busquets. I want to see it too."

Charles repeated.

Valdes looked incredulous. He didn't expect that Charles was not scared off by Busquets' French fry look and even dared to come to him to look at the hairstyle manual.

"Okay, I'll bring the manual tomorrow. But if you really do a tomato hairstyle, don't tell me you saw it from me."

Valdez felt vaguely uneasy.

Ciel nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, I won't get a tomato hairstyle."

The next day, Valdes brought several hairstyle manuals from home and also brought his own membership card.

"Once you have made your choice, just use my membership card. This hairstylist's skills are quite good. He did all my hair."

Valdez explained.

Charles took over several thick hair manuals and asked, "Is Busquets' haircut also done by this barber?"

"what?"

"I think his craftsmanship is quite good. Busquets' hairstyle is still intact now."

Charles explained quickly.

Valdez breathed a sigh of relief.

"He did it that day with the membership card I gave him."

After chatting with him for a few more words, after Valdes left, Charles couldn't wait to open the hairstyle manual.

Finally, the hard work paid off, and Charles finally found the same hairstyle as Busquets in the middle of a hairstyle manual!

With the hairstyle manual and the membership card given by Valdes, Charles went directly to the barber shop recommended by Valdes.

Although men's hairstyles are relatively simple, it still takes a lot of time to make the same French fry hairstyle as Busquets.

In the evening, Charles finally got his hair done and happily returned to the training base.

The draw for the Champions League quarter-finals will be held tonight.

Ciel is going to watch the draw with his teammates.

The eight teams in the quarterfinals this time are Lyon, Arsenal, Bordeaux, Manchester United, CSKA, Inter Milan, Bayern and Barcelona.

Among them, although Bordeaux is a small team, in the group stage, Bordeaux beat Bayern Munich by 6 points and advanced as the first in the group.

The only team that can be said to be a soft persimmon is CSKA Moscow.

But CSKA is far away in Russia, and it is not easy to play away from home, as it is far and cold.

After getting off the car, Charles immediately went to the meeting room.

As soon as he opened the door, Busquets noticed Charles' hairstyle.

"Ciel! Why did you dye your hair too? And the same hairstyle as mine!"

As soon as Busquets finished speaking, all eyes in the conference room turned to Charles.

"Oh my god, I thought you were just going to dye your hair a tomato style, but I didn't expect you to like this hairstyle so much."

Valdez couldn't help but shake his head.

Charles sat directly next to Busquets.

Under the light, it looked like two boxes of French fries side by side.

The only difference is that Charles has more hair, and the French fries on his head look a little more than Busquets.

"I knew my hairstyle was full of charm, and you like it too, right!"

Busquets excitedly shook Charles' arm.

Ciel closed his eyes and nodded, "Yes, yes, it's really amazing."

"Really? Ciel, you're really not lying with your eyes open? Ibrahimovic almost spat out a mouthful of blood."

He decided to stay away from Valdez's hair manual.

He was afraid that one day he would become depressed, so he dyed his hair into the same French fry style.

Charles opened his eyes directly, "No, I had my eyes closed just now."

In an instant, the entire conference room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Busquets, a smile on his face, poked Charles.

"From now on we will be the most famous 'French Fries Brothers' of Barcelona. I am French Fries No. 1 and you are French Fries No. 2. Together we will dominate Europe."

After a while, Guardiola and other coaching staff members came in, and the players became more serious.

Puyol came in with a bag of fruit and distributed it to everyone one by one.

The draw ceremony won't start until 11:30 pm, so it's still early.

Charles took an apple from Puyol's bag and ate it slowly.

Seeing this, "French Fries Number One" also took an apple and said, "French Fries Number Two, who do you think we will draw this time?"

"I hope it's Bordeaux, which is close, not as far as CSKA, and not as difficult to play as Inter Milan and Manchester United."

After Puyol distributed the fruit, he sat behind Charles.

"It's unlikely. There's nothing special about us and Bordeaux. I think it's very likely that we'll have to choose between Manchester United and Inter Milan."

Harvey turned around and asked, "Why?"

Puyol went on to explain, “There’s no need to talk about Manchester United and us. We played against them in the last Champions League final. Inter Milan is also worth watching.”

"What do you think of what Gazzetta dello Sport and Mundo Deportivo said?" Iniesta turned around and looked at Charles when he heard this.

Not long ago, these two newspapers predicted the results of the quarter-final draw.

Their predictions were made in Platini's usual style.

The first point is to encircle the Premier League;

The second point is that the teams with clear grudges meet, which is guaranteed to be a highlight;
Platini's home country team may get a "guarantee" of third place.

"The point is not whether the draw is fair or not, the point should be to minimize the influence of the referee on the game in the future and avoid misjudgments."

Ciel answered quickly.

The teams that can now enter the quarterfinals of the Champions League have more or less a lot of records of confrontation, so there is still plenty to watch.

The main problem is that the current refereeing problem is too serious.

As everyone finished eating the fruit in their hands, the draw ceremony for the Champions League quarter-finals began. As the balls were drawn one by one, all the opponents in the quarter-finals were clear at a glance.

Lyon vs. Bordeaux, this is a civil war between two French Ligue 1 teams;
Bayern vs. Manchester United. In the 1999 Champions League final, Manchester United won the treble by stepping on Bayern's body.

Inter Milan vs CSKA, it’s a good draw;
Barcelona's opponent is obvious - Arsenal.

In addition to Barcelona's reversal of Arsenal to win the 2006 Champions League final, there are many other highlights in this game.

First, the former King of Highbury, Henry, returned to Arsenal, but played for Barcelona;
The second is the story of how Wenger and Charr almost signed him;

What followed was the confusing "host-host showdown" between Fabregas and Barcelona.

"What the hell, what is Platini thinking? We are in the same half as Inter Milan. Even if we beat Arsenal, the next opponent will most likely be Inter Milan."

Pique was a little dissatisfied.

"Is he trying to kill two birds with one stone? It's not enough to get a spot in the group stage, he has to do it again in the semi-finals."

Puyol was also a little unhappy, but he didn't say it directly like Pique.

Ciel did not join in Pieck's complaint meeting.

The news about Fabregas' transfer has not stopped yet.

The latest version of the rumor is that Real Madrid will use Higuain plus a sum of cash to buy Fabregas. After Wenger gets the money, he will use the cash, plus part of the transfer fee and Higuain's transfer to Barcelona in exchange for Charles to join Arsenal.

He should have known that UEFA would not let go of this opportunity.

For this year's Champions League, Platini's theme seems to be "return".

But this time Barcelona drew Arsenal, which Charles thought was more like "the Minotaur vs. the Pure Love Warrior".

Soon, as the draw was over, the "pure love battle" between Arsenal and Barcelona immediately appeared in newspapers of major media.

"Mundo Deportivo": "Barcelona's road to the Bernabeu has been designed, if Real Madrid really wants Charles to be the king at the Bernabeu."

"This season's Champions League final will be held at Real Madrid's Bernabéu Stadium and Real Madrid have been very eager for Charles to return to Madrid."

"This season, the first step for Barcelona and Charles to return to the Bernabeu is to defeat Arsenal."

"After the ultimate artistic football showdown with Arsenal, the Blaugrana will once again face Mourinho's Inter Milan or CSKA."

"After that, carrying the glory of the defending champions, the style of the five-time champions and the faith of the Catalans, Barcelona will go to the Bernabéu, waiting to be crowned king!"

"The only regret is that Barcelona is in the bottom half and can only be considered as the visiting team in the Champions League final and cannot use the home team's locker room."

"Otherwise, the Barca people will 100% satisfy Real Madrid's wish - let Charles step into Real Madrid's home team locker room, leave Barcelona's mark, and become the king here!"

"Marca": "Benitez is out! Fabregas should help Arsenal advance to the semi-finals."

"This summer, Real Madrid signed 2007 Ballon d'Or winner Kaka, 2008 Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo and Lyon's top scorer Benzema, but Real Madrid was still shut out of the Champions League quarterfinals."

"Benitez has absolutely no experience in coaching a top team and has made many jokes. Real Madrid's Galacticos are like a tractor in the hands of this country bumpkin Benitez."

"Benitez must be held responsible for Real Madrid's defeat. He should have been sacked before the national derby and replaced by a coach capable of leading the Galacticos."

"Besides that, the only thing we can be thankful for is that our home team's locker room will not be trampled by Barcelona."

"Charles will definitely return to the Bernabeu and use the Real Madrid dressing room, but definitely not in red and blue."

The Guardian: "In the history of the Champions League, Arsenal and Barcelona have met three times, with Barcelona winning two and drawing one and remaining unbeaten."

"In the 1999/2000 Champions League group stage, Barcelona drew 1-1 with Arsenal at home, with Luis Enrique scoring."

"Away from home, Barcelona won 4-2, Rivaldo scored a penalty, Luis Enrique, Figo and Cocu each scored a goal."

"In the 2005/06 Champions League final, Henry scored a goal for Arsenal, but then two goals from Eto'o and Belletti helped Barcelona reverse the game 2-1."

Gazzetta dello Sport: "Henry, Charles, Fabregas: red or red and blue?"

"The first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals will be held in North London, at home, and Fabregas needs to prove that he is fighting for the reds."

"How will Henry face his former country away from home?"

"If Charles continues to perform at his usual high level at the Emirates Stadium, how will Wenger, who is eager to pursue Charles, feel?"

"In the second round, back at Camp Nou, what choice will they make?"

The Mirror: "The love-hate relationship between Barcelona and the Gunners will be staged again in the Champions League."

"In this Champions League, return is the key word."

"In the group stage, Kaka returned to San Siro. He will always be the prince of San Siro;"

"Eto'o returns to Camp Nou, maybe he and Guardiola can put aside their differences;"

"Ibrahimovic returns to Meazza, but he may no longer be the God of Meazza;"

"In the knockout rounds, Beckham returned to Old Trafford, his home after seven years away;"

"Mourinho returns to Stamford Bridge to kill the blue beast he has cultivated with great effort."

"And this time, the word return has once again landed on Arsenal and Barcelona."

“Is the word ‘return’ too heavy a word for these two teams?”

"Henry played for Arsenal for many years and was king at Highbury, but the closest he came to the Champions League trophy there was in the 2006 Paris final;"

"After joining Barcelona, ​​the club that destroyed his Champions League dream, Henry was compensated with five titles."

"Highbury is gone, but this time, Henry can return home in glory."

"Wenger has been chasing Charles like crazy since last year."

"He is French like Henry and he has performed well. No one doubts that he can become the next Arsenal star if he joins Arsenal."

"Wenger said his biggest regret was that he bought his flight to Benedikt in the winter of 2009 too late."

"But even though he missed this time, Wenger was still unwilling to give up. His desire and enthusiasm even frightened Cruyff."

"Cruyff had to write a letter to warn Wenger not to go after Charles."

"Wenger and his Emirates Stadium, waiting for his love but not getting it."

"Fabregas has become the captain of Arsenal. Although he is in London, his heart will never forget the scenery of Catalonia."

"A few months ago, Fabregas said in an interview that Barcelona will always be his favorite city."

"On the other hand, both Laporta and the presidential candidates almost regard him as a key signing for next season."

"If Arsenal beat Barcelona this time, Fabregas is likely to return directly to Barcelona."

"If Arsenal lose to Barcelona, ​​just like in the 2006 Paris match, Fabregas is likely to stay at the Emirates Stadium for a year, just like Henry did."

Sky Sports: "Arsenal head coach Wenger said that although Arsenal is definitely not the favorite to win the championship compared to the defending champion Barcelona, ​​on the field, the ball is round and everything is possible."

"Whether it's Barcelona or any other team, this is the inevitable result in the quarter-finals."

"Barca is a good team, but for me, that's it."

"Charles? I really like this player. He is very good. The ball is like magic under his feet. Every move of Charles on the field is free and easy... He has the demeanor of a master... I think Charles has reached the level of Zidane in terms of how to express football skills... It's like... All he lacks is the World Cup title and the media effect brought by the earthquake-level transfer... Yes, that's right, Arsenal's door will always be open to him."

Cruyff had just gotten up when he saw the interview on Sky Sports.

He already felt a little regretful that Barcelona had no way to enter Real Madrid's home locker room.

But after watching Wenger's interview, he did not have any regrets, but was furious.

"Damn Wenger! Was the last letter I wrote too tactfully? How dare he set his sights on Charles? How dare he!"
