Chapter 647 This is Professional Football!
The [-]-[-] victory over Manchester City made the whole world see the great strength of Liverpool.

The Red Army trained by Benitez has a balanced offense and defense. It not only has outstanding defensive ability, but also has excellent offensive power. It is the most competitive team in the Premier League and even European football.

After 38 league rounds this season, Liverpool conceded only three more goals than Manchester United, ranking second in the Premier League, but also scored more than ten goals more than Manchester United, making them the team with the strongest offensive firepower in the Premier League.

Especially the nine-goal victory over Manchester City in the last round shocked everyone.

Such a big victory is extremely rare in the Premier League.

Therefore, both the media and the fans agree that Liverpool deserves the title this season.

On the second day after the match against Manchester City, major British and European media also congratulated Liverpool for winning the Premier League championship. At the same time, all the media also reported Yang Yang's hat-trick. He successfully raised his total goals this season to 52 goals.

This makes Yang Yang the first star to score more than 30 goals in a single season in the past [-] years.

At the same time, he is also the second legendary superstar to score more than 70 goals in a single season in the past [-] years. The first is Gerd Muller.

In the [-]-year history of the four major European leagues, Yang Yang is the ninth player to receive this honor.

Not only the entire UK, Europe, and even the media all over the world are praising Liverpool's championship and Yang Yang's outstanding performance this season.

Yang Yang has scored more than [-] goals in a single season. He has surpassed this number in the Eredivisie league before, but that is in the Eredivisie league, which is completely different from the four major leagues.

But now, Yang Yang has scored 34 goals in a single season in the Premier League, 52 goals in the UEFA Champions League, a hat-trick in the UEFA Super Cup, goals in the League Cup and the Club World Cup. All these goals add up to [-] goals.

Sky TV even specially edited a special program, which recorded the whole process of Yang Yang's 52 goals this season, so that all viewers and fans can see Yang Yang's demeanor on all fronts this season.

Among these 52 goals, there are many classic goals. The most memorable one is the six-man match against Barcelona. This goal is also considered by countless media to be the most exciting goal in European football this season.

Liverpool won the English top league championship after 20 years of absence, the first Premier League championship in club history, and Yang Yang became the second legendary star in the past 70 years and the first legendary star to score more than 35 goals in a single season in the past [-] years. These undoubtedly aroused heated discussions among media and fans all over the world.

Everyone is paying attention to Liverpool and Yang Yang.

With the attention of the world, Liverpool's internal fighting has also been exposed in front of everyone.

……

As early as the week after Liverpool beat Manchester United, the media around the world began to report on Liverpool's infighting and the news that Yang Yang might transfer to Barcelona.

The British Times ridiculed: Whoever can solve the infighting of the Liverpool board of directors will be able to win this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

It can be seen that in Liverpool's board of directors, the battle between Hicks and Gillette has reached a fever pitch.

Originally in this dispute, Melwood remained neutral.

But the day after the team defeated Manchester United [-]-[-] and won the league title one round ahead of schedule, Hicks brought his son Tom to Melwood and had a meeting with Benitez.

Obviously, he is coming to seek support from the team.

Hicks then said that the talks were very positive, talking about a lot of club affairs, and the atmosphere was encouraging.

At the same time, Hicks also promised that the club has a bright future, and Benitez talked to him a lot about his vision for the future.

Maybe because Hicks' statement left an illusion that the team has supported him, Benitez quickly made a clarification. In an interview with the media, he said that he did talk about the future a lot, but it was mainly about the transfer this summer.

"I hope the team can end this chaos as soon as possible, because it has seriously affected the atmosphere within the team."

"The content of our conversation is not confidential. Rick Parry and George Gillette know it. I told them very clearly that we should have more ambitious goals. We have the strength to win more championships."

"This season, we should have gone further in the Champions League and the FA Cup. We could have played more aggressively, but unfortunately, the thickness of our bench limited our performance."

"During the meeting, I told them clearly that I want to introduce several players, but most importantly, we must try our best to retain the existing players, especially Yang Yang, who is the core competitiveness of our team."

"Yang Yang has scored 52 goals and assisted 69 goals this season, adding up to [-] goals, which is half of the club's goals on all fronts. I can't imagine that if we lose Yang Yang, what competitiveness will the team have?"

Benitez said that he has clearly informed the club management of his thoughts, and hopes that they can return to the negotiating table, temporarily put aside the controversy, and draw up a signing plan for next season as soon as possible, while appeasing the existing players in the team.

"I believe that as long as the signings are strong, we can win more next season, not only the Premier League, but also the Champions League."

……

The ambitious goal promised by Benitez is full of appeal to the media and Liverpool fans.

Soon the media broke the news that the Spaniard made a transfer candidate list to the two bosses, including Aston Villa's Gareth Barry, Blackburn's Bentley, Atletico Madrid's Maxi Rodriguez, Tottenham Hotspur's Gareth Bale, Middlesbrough's Downing, as well as a goalkeeper and a striker.

In addition, although the veteran Finnan has played a lot this season, he has gradually lost his qualifications to start the right back in terms of statistics and performance, so he will be gradually replaced by Arbeloa.

External media broke the news that Liverpool intends to exchange Finnan for Gareth Barry of Aston Villa and subsidize an additional transfer fee, but in this way, Liverpool must introduce another outstanding player at the right back position.

It is speculated that there are two players that Benitez is looking at, one is Dortmund's Swiss full-back Degen, and the other is England's native defender Glenn Johnson who plays for Portsmouth.

In addition to transfers and signings, the contract renewals of many players in the team are also placed in front of Benitez and the club's management.

Needless to say, Yang Yang, the contract renewal negotiation has been delayed for half a year. The contract renewal of left back Riise and striker Crouch has also become a problem for the team, especially Riise.

After training with Winston Bogard, Aurelio's physical fitness has been improved, and his injuries have been reduced a lot. Especially in the second half, he played almost all the games, which made it difficult for Riise to get the main position.

However, considering the multi-line battle next season, Riise is likely to stay on the team.

…………

…………

With the end of the last round of the league, disturbances from the outside world also came.

On the day after the match against Manchester City, the entire Liverpool team went to the St. Thomas Hotel to celebrate winning the championship. Except for Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso and a few others, they were all drunk, and even Benitez lost his composure again.

After a season of depression, they can finally get a chance to relax completely.

The difference is that this time the club has made proper arrangements so that Gerrard will not be allowed to stop the milk truck to go home again.

On the afternoon of the next day, the players came to the Melwood training base. After the last report of the season, Benitez announced the end of the season and the team disbanded.

But after disbanding the team, Benitez left Yang Yang alone and had an in-depth conversation behind closed doors.

Benitez told Yang Yang very clearly that the club has not received any offers so far.

"Rick Parry personally promised me that the club has no intention of selling you. The team is doing everything possible to stabilize the current situation. I believe you will receive news soon."

The meaning of Benitez's remarks is very clear, that is, all the outside news about Liverpool receiving an offer of 8000 million euros from Barcelona is false, and Barcelona has not given any offer so far.

As for whether Liverpool would agree if Barcelona really offered 8000 million euros, Rick Parry did not make a promise.

So, this is just empty talk.

Yang Yang's understanding is that Liverpool really don't want to sell Yang Yang unless it is a last resort. Whether it is the coaching staff or the management, they are very aware of the importance of Yang Yang to the team, so they hope to stabilize Yang Yang.

As for what Rick Parry revealed, the club is doing everything possible to stabilize the current situation. Yang Yang thinks that he should start with Hicks and Gillette to promote a ceasefire between the two sides as soon as possible and formulate a transfer plan for the new season.

Liverpool is not without money. This season the team won the Premier League title and the Champions League semi-finals. These two events have brought huge profits to the club. The key depends on whether Liverpool is willing to spend money and invest in transfer operations.

And since the door is closed, Yang Yang is also very frank, telling Benitez that he has not had any form of contact with any team so far.

"I respect my contract with Liverpool very much, and I also like the football atmosphere here very much, but frankly, I am very disappointed with the current status of the team. We could have done more and better."

Yang Yang's remarks were recognized by Benitez.

Just like the semi-finals of the Champions League, if there hadn't been those news before the game, causing panic in the team, maybe they would have won against Manchester United, and when they reached the finals, Liverpool might have won the five-time champion.

But regarding these things, Benitez was also very helpless, and could only sigh full of regret.

"This is professional football!"

In a word, the Tao is full of helplessness and sorrow.

But in any case, Benitez is very clear that the team must keep Yang Yang.

And the management headed by Rick Parry is also making the final effort.
