After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 1638 - 451: Absolutely Unexpected
Guardiola chuckled and said: "It’s a personal choice, but I believe Kevin has that ability. Ivan’s words are not wrong; he is very concerned about the world and understands these international matters well."
Having not received the desired answers from the last two questions, the reporter turned to Ranieri.
"Claudio, did you reject Milan because you’re not fond of AC Milan, or do you hate AC Milan?"
Cough cough—
Ranieri nearly choked on his saliva. He had just been watching Guardiola’s interesting responses, not expecting his turn so soon.
Ranieri quickly explained: "AC Milan is a very great team, and many legendary players have been born from them. But you all know I’m a Roma fan. I’ve supported Roma since I was young, and my biggest dream is to lead Roma to win the championship. Coaching Roma is already a dream life, and I’ll never accept an invitation from another team while on Roma’s coaching seat."
He has always been a die-hard Roma fan; only if Roma fires him will Ranieri leave for another team.
"What about your relationship with Totti?"
The reporter pressed on.
"I have no issues with Francesco; I respect him, and he understands me. We both have Roma DNA, and we both crave victory; that’s our relationship."
Ranieri said.
"Let’s talk about the transfers, Mr. Guardiola."
The reporter shifted targets again.
Guardiola shrugged and said: "I haven’t gotten involved in the transfers yet. I know the kid you’re talking about, but do you really think AC Milan has a spot for him now? If the team wants to sell him, I think it would be a good thing for his career. I’ve played for big clubs, like in Barcelona, where many youngsters couldn’t get playtime and left; that’s football."
Seeing Guardiola still had more to say, Ranieri coughed once and directly stood up, saying: "Today’s press conference ends here; I need to go back and brief some players."
The reporters intended to scoop some big news from them.
Ranieri didn’t want to sit there any longer.
Guardiola took the opportunity to stand up as well.
Otherwise, he was ready to answer more questions.
...
"Today’s San Siro Stadium is packed; since the warm-up, AC Milan fans have shown their enthusiasm. Interestingly, we also saw quite a few Inter Milan jerseys. Only a player like Huang Kaiwen could make fans of the Milan rivals put aside their differences and support together."
"Yes, quite a few Inter players have good relations with Huang Kaiwen. Veteran Materazzi even said that if Huang Kaiwen someday becomes a coach, he’d recommend himself to join Huang Kaiwen’s coaching staff. Not being able to play alongside Huang Kaiwen is his biggest regret in his career."
"Indeed, Argentine players like Sannetti and Cambiasso have also praised Huang Kaiwen. Huang Kaiwen manages to maintain such good relations with players from rival teams, which shows his skills in socializing."
[Inter Milan] Bar.
"Sannetti and the others were definitely tricked by this guy. Back then, he played the shemale account and wanted to snatch people’s equipment."
"Huang Kaiwen is indeed quite capable; he manages to get praised by many players and coaches in whichever league he goes. Both the Professor and Sir Ferguson said his departure was a loss for the Premier League, but it’s good for Manchester United and Arsenal."
"No one questions this guy’s abilities."
"Of course, Roma is just there to lose today."
"Totti seems to have a pretty good relationship with Huang Kaiwen as well."
"Huang Kaiwen was ruthless when playing against the little sticks; Italian international players must be happy. Back then, Totti got a red card in the match against the little sticks."
"Looking at this, Huang Kaiwen’s popularity has reasons; he’s indeed done quite a lot."
"You guys better respect, Brother Kevin is the world’s top star, show some respect."
"Who the hell are you?"
"WTF, you don’t know him? It’s Brother Paralysis! Back then, Huang Kaiwen wanted to snatch his equipment, and he shamelessly became Huang Kaiwen’s sidekick."
"Bar admins, get to work."
"If you kick these people out, I’ll give the bar admins an authentic Inter jersey each, and draw 20 Inter fans from the forum to send jerseys as well, I’ll buy and send player version jerseys while going abroad in a few days!"
"Sure thing, bro!"
"Damn, you knelt for five buckets of rice..."
[Inter Milan] Bar began mass banning and deleting posts.
At this time, the players on both sides had finished warming up and returned to the tunnel.
Huang Kaiwen walked in front, following the coach out of the tunnel again, and the atmosphere in San Siro reached its peak.
With Huang Kaiwen confirmed to start, the Rossoneri finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Milan fans raised the huge banner again of Huang Kaiwen embracing Kaka, with the backs of number 10 and 22 being a classic scene at San Siro."
"Roma fans followed suit with applause, as Huang Kaiwen just stepped onto the field, he clapped towards the stands in gratitude, haha, not many players get such treatment."
"Indeed, this season Huang Kaiwen also became AC Milan’s captain, the first Asian one in history. Park Ji-sung and Sun Jihai have worn captain armbands, but neither was the first team captain. Huang Kaiwen is the first Asian player in history to become the primary captain of a European team, in a super club like Milan!"
"Yes, but let’s first look at the starting lineup on both sides."
AC Milan 4231 twin defensive midfielders:
Goalkeeper: Buffon,
Defenders: Zambrotta, Thiago Silva, Godin, Papastathopoulos,
