Chapter 1059 Manchester City's signings

Milner has no objection to joining Manchester City. In today's English football, as long as he is a smart person, few people will refuse Manchester City's invitation.

Because now everyone can see that Manchester City is ambitious, and they frequently move in the transfer market to enhance their strength.Secondly, Manchester City still has glory, and having him means having a championship.

So going to Manchester City can actually win the championship.

This may not be attractive enough for those top players, but for middle-level players like Milner, it is definitely a fatal temptation.

Everyone is eager to win the championship, but can Aston Villa win the league championship?
very difficult.

Even if you want to win the League Cup and the FA Cup, you still have to count on the giants to take a nap or something.

But going to Manchester City, this is not a problem.

Follow Glory, the popular ones drink the hot ones, are you afraid that there will be no champions?
Glory has only come to Manchester City in two seasons and they have won three championships-the FA Cup, the Community Shield and the Premier League.

Every season has at least one championship to win.

Who wouldn't want to go to such a team?

And the salary provided by Manchester City is also better than that of Aston Villa.

So Milner decided to come to Manchester City without any hesitation.

All that's left is for Manchester City and Aston Villa to haggle over how much Milner is worth.

Aston Villa will definitely not sell it to Manchester City cheaply. On the one hand, Manchester City is a fool with a lot of money. On the other hand, Aston Villa knows why Manchester City is interested in Milner, because Milner is a local player in England. This account is already very valuable.In order to qualify for the Champions League, Manchester City has to win Milner no matter how much money they have.

Therefore, in the Premier League, even if local players are not particularly good, they can often be sold for a lot of money.

This is what Chinese fans commonly call the "hukou book".

While negotiating with Milner, Manchester City also sent away the second captain Dunn.

Central defender Dunn didn't have many chances to play for Manchester City last season. When Kompany was injured many times, Godin was always on top.Godin's performance is very good, and it is impossible for Dunn to snatch the chance to get out of the game from him anyway.After Kompany recovers from injury, he and Godin will still be competing for playing opportunities, let alone Dunn.

If he stays in Manchester City, Dunn can still win the championship.But Dunn is not reconciled to retire so early, he is still eager to play, so he chose to leave Manchester City, go to a team that is not strong, may not be able to win the championship team, may not even participate in the European war, but it can give him enough opportunities to play.

After Dunn left, there were only three of Manchester City's regular central defenders. Although Richards could play as a central defender, he played more often as a right back, rotating with Zabaleta.

So Manchester City had to find a central defender, and Benitez took a fancy to Jerome Boateng, a Ghanaian-German player who played for Hamburg.

This young black defender can play multiple positions in the midfield, including right back and center back.

In Benitez's view, he is a very good rotation player.

In the 2008 European Youth Championship, Boateng was placed in the central defender position by the head coach of the German youth team at the time, Helube. This adjustment has created an excellent central defender.Whether it is Barcelona's "Messi No. [-]" Bojan, Italy's rising star Balotelli, or England's long-established "little tiger" Walcott, they all seem at a loss in front of Boateng and cannot find a chance to score.The excellent positioning and high-altitude ball advantage made the opponent have no chance to take advantage of it, especially in the match between the German team and Finland in the group stage, Boateng's one-on-one defense success rate was as high as [-]%!

The German team only conceded one goal in five games in the European Youth Championship. In addition to Neuer's magical performance, Boateng's outstanding performance also contributed.

If such a young central defender joins Manchester City, it will definitely improve the overall strength of Manchester City's defense, especially the thickness of the bench, which will allow Benitez to arrange tactics more easily.

Now it's up to Hamburg to let go of their star hopeful.

Benitez is trying to introduce more players with English household registration, but the players with English household registration in the team want to leave now...

This also gave him a headache.

Center Sturridge was originally a rotation center in the team. Most of the time he was a substitute for Berbatov, ranking even before Deldiyok.

Therefore, he played a lot last season, with a total of 28 appearances in various starts and substitutes in the league.

But this situation will change with the arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is here, and Berbatov is going to play as a substitute, let alone Sturridge?

Sturridge is still very young, and he doesn't want to play as a substitute. He has always wanted to be a starter. Before that, he hoped to squeeze out Berbatov and become the starting center.But this goal was not achieved last season.

He wanted to continue to work towards this goal this season, but Ibrahimovic came.

Sturridge now has to beat not just Berbatov, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic...

Sturridge has gone to Berbatov, hoping to make him the main center in the new season, not Berbatov, not Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but him.

Benitez turned him down without even thinking about it.

So the next day, Sturridge's agent officially notified the Manchester City club that his players were unhappy in Manchester City and wanted to leave.

And soon the outside world knew the news that Sturridge was leaving Manchester City.

As the star of hope cultivated by Manchester City, the Manchester City club naturally does not want to let Sturridge go.

Because in Platini's policy, it not only involves the quota of local players, but also the quota of the team's youth training.

Therefore, players like Sturridge who are not only local players but also trained by the club's youth training are very valuable.

The two sides just signed a new contract last season. Sturridge and Manchester City renewed the contract until 2013. The contract expires.

So Manchester City tried to keep Sturridge.

But no matter how much he tried to persuade Sturridge, the black boy said, "Unless I'm the main force."

The topic couldn't continue any longer...

Sturridge is leaving, but he has no shortage of buyers in the transfer market.Because he is talented and capable, he also performed well with Manchester City in the first two seasons, scoring many goals.

He has no shortage of homes.This is why Sturridge dared to blackmail the club with a transfer.

If the club really does not give him the main position, he is not afraid that he will not be able to leave, and he will continue to be worn by Benitez in the team...

The Manchester City club really couldn't understand where Sturridge's self-confidence to be the main player came from... When the persuasion failed, they had no choice but to push Sturridge to the transfer market.

But the Manchester City club also has a principle, that is, it will never sell Sturridge cheaply.

Want to get the star of hope for the future of English football?Then you have to show enough sincerity!

Although the new season has not yet started, Manchester City's every move in the transfer market has attracted attention.Because this team is so rich, theoretically they can buy any player in the world.

But it's fine if it's just money, because some top players don't only consider economic factors when transferring.

They also consider other things, such as honor and development prospects.

Manchester City have also solved this problem - they have glory.

Glory is simply a championship guarantee.

As long as the glory does not go away, Manchester City is a very championship-competitive team.

Such a team, with money and championships, can be invincible in the transfer market as long as they want to.

However, Manchester City's performance in the transfer market this summer is very quiet, not crazy at all, and completely inconsistent with the image of "upstarts" in people's minds.

Benitez has his own plan. He believes that Manchester City no longer needs to buy many players every summer to prove their appeal in the transfer market.That's not going to cost money.

Manchester City already has a big frame now. Rong Guang, Sneijder, David Silva, and Ibrahimovic are the main offensive players. On defense, Matuidi, Lucio, Godin, and Kompany are also very stable. Although the goalkeeper Joe Hart is young, he has improved rapidly.

All Manchester City has to do now is to increase the thickness of the bench.

It is not necessary to buy too many players with main strength, but it will cause an imbalance in the locker room.

Therefore, in this year's transfer market, Manchester City has always been very restrained.

What he worries about is the negative impact the World Cup will have on the team.

In the Manchester City team, there are many players who participated in the World Cup. Two of the main players played to the end. They thought it was Sneijder, the core midfielder of the Dutch national team, and the other was David Silva, the main player of Spain.

The two teams eventually reached the final of the World Cup, and Spain defeated the Netherlands to win the World Cup.

The state of these two players will definitely not be very good after the start of the new season.

During that time, the team's performance may have some ups and downs. At this time, it depends on Rong Guang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, two players who did not participate in the World Cup...

Judging from the training camp, the training status of these two players is quite good, and their physical condition is also very good.

The only problem may be their relationship.

Will there be sparks between Rongguang and Ibrahimovic together?

Benitez also doesn't know how Ibrahimovic and Rong Guang can coexist peacefully.

But at least for now, it seems that there has been no conflict and friction between the two people. Benitez hopes that this kind of thing will never happen.
