Chapter 648 Preparing for the New Season

On the day when Liverpool started their pre-season preparations, scandals involving coaches in Chinese football were made public, and the judiciary intervened.

Those who should be removed from the industry should be removed from the list.

Those who should be arrested should be arrested, and the defendant should be sued.

There are also some small media trying to whitewash them, claiming that without so many coaches, the team's work will be much less efficient, even if it is not paralyzed.

Sorry, what China lacks most is people.

And the biggest problem in Chinese football is that they eat vegetarian food, occupy the latrines and do not shit, and even use power for personal gain.

The official media applauded Situ Yunbing for the three fires that Situ Yunbing parachuted into Chinese football this time.

If the storm in 2012 was about beating tigers, then the storm caused by Situ Yunbing in 2014 is about swatting flies!
The team started summer preparations, and in late July they will go to the United States to participate in the warm-up match of the International Champions Cup.

Liverpool's transfer work this summer has been different than in the past.

When Situ Yunbing entered Liverpool, he started rebuilding, and in the summer of the second year, he steadily improved the team's strength. This is the starting point of the third year, and the team is mainly stable.

Renewal work comes first.

Then make replacement signings based on the players who leave.

Sane arrived to replace Sterling.

Lewandowski arrived to replace Suarez.

Coupled with the return of Mahrez, Robertson has further matured.

Liverpool is now strong and strong.

And other giants seem to have a sense of crisis, and have invested a lot this summer.

Arsenal, which finished fourth in the Premier League last season, followed the heavy introduction of Ozil last year, Wenger once again spent a lot of money on signings, which is relatively rare.

Sanchez at £3500 million, Welbeck at £1600 million, Chambers at £1200 million, Debussy at £1000 million, Ospina at £300 million.

Even subtracting the £1500 million that Vermaelen received back from his move to Barcelona, ​​Arsenal have invested over £6000 million this summer!
This is enough to make Arsenal fans look forward to the new season.

West London giants Chelsea have invested heavily in the summer to further build the ideal lineup in Mourinho's mind.

£3000m for Fabregas, £3200m for Diego Costa from Atletico Madrid, £800m for Remy, £1600m for Felipe Luis from Atletico Madrid, £2600m Matic, and veteran Drogba's free return.

Although the buyer spent more than 1.1 million pounds, the Chelsea seller also recovered a lot of money.

David Luiz's move to Paris Saint-Germain set a sky-high price of 5000 million pounds, Lukaku moved to Everton, Chelsea recovered 2800 million pounds from him, 800 cheap Demba Ba, Eto'o, Lampard left the team freely, while Torres, Van Ginkel and others left the team on loan.

Chelsea's net investment this summer does not exceed 4000 million pounds, but the lineup has changed almost half, which is considered economical.

Manchester United ushered in new coach Van Gaal after the World Cup, and then there was a wave of big sales.

Shinji Kagawa sent back to Dortmund for £630 million, Butner went to Dynamo Moscow for £530 million, Evra went to Juventus for £250 million, Bebe went to Benfica for £240 million, Welbeck went to Arsenal for £1600 million, and Hernandez left the team on loan.

Manchester United's management was obviously a little anxious. They refused to invest heavily in the Ferguson era, but after Ferguson retired and found that the team's record plummeted, they rushed to the doctor. After inviting Van Gaal, they also opened their wallets.

Not to mention that the team sells people cheaply, but there is obviously a premium for the introduction of players.

Di Maria, who is close to 6000 million pounds.

Luke Shaw at £3150m!
£2900 million Herrera!
£1600m Rojo.

£1400m Blind.

High salary loan Falcao.

Manchester United's investment this summer definitely gave Van Gaal enough face, with a net investment of more than 1 million pounds!
The Red Devils' rivals in the same city, Manchester City, are still on the road of reinforcement this summer.

According to Manchester City's lineup, if it weren't for the arrival of the top stars, the positions in the midfield and frontcourt are almost full.

After successfully snatching Sterling, Manchester City's reinforcements in other positions were not sensational.

Fernando at £1200 million, Caballero at £600 million, Mangala at £3200 million, Sagna on a free transfer.

The net investment is close to [-] million pounds!
Among the Premier League giants, only Liverpool has made money in the transfer market!
But in fact, everyone also knows that they have added all the money they earned to salary costs, including the sky-high signing fee directly paid by signing Lewandowski, which will not be calculated in the transfer market by the outside world.

As for the signings of other teams in the Premier League, there is not much worthy of attention.

In the Melwood training base, Situ Yunbing prepares for the training step by step. Compared with the past, he just needs to spend more time to pay attention to the relevant matters of Chinese football. Every week, a video conference will be held within the football school to understand those who came to Europe. What's going on with the kids.

Liverpool held a press conference before leading the team to the United States for the International Champions Cup.

When Situ Yunbing was asked by Fleet Street whether there would be any moves in the transfer market, he gave an affirmative answer.

"I am satisfied with the team's current lineup, I don't think the team needs signings, we have a strong enough lineup to meet the challenges of the new season.

I think the most critical test for Liverpool in the new season is not how many people we have in the first team, but our mentality.

We won the Premier League for two years, the Europa League and the Champions League.

Now we need to ask ourselves, do we still want to continue to win? We need to recall two years ago, one year ago, compared to ourselves at that time, has our fighting spirit become stronger or weaker?
This is a question that everyone in the club must ponder and face!
We must realize that if our mentality changes and we cannot adjust back in time, then we are likely to usher in a very failed season.

Many people are waiting to see our jokes, and our fans will look at us more optimistically than last year and the year before. Once we fail, it will bring great loss and pain to the fans! "

Last summer, Situ Yunbing once published a preview of the competition situation of the new Premier League season, which was considered to be a sharp hit in the middle and late seasons of the season.

Now Fleet Street wants to hear his insights. For the new season, what will his prediction of the competitive situation be like?
Manchester United?

Situ Yunbing said with a smile: "I really don't want to talk about Manchester United now. I already said it last season, because they are not Liverpool's opponents. They are our enemies, but they are not opponents at the same level. This is not my initiative. Despise Manchester United, if you are neutral and objective enough, compare the strength of the two teams and you should agree with me."

The reporter asked unwillingly: "Even with the arrival of Van Gaal and the introduction of many outstanding players, Manchester United is still not Liverpool's opponent?"

Situ Yunbing nodded with a smile and said: "Van Gaal will do better than Moyes, but to succeed in the Premier League, I think he needs more time.

We all know that Manchester United is very busy in the transfer market. They are waving money almost desperately trying to bring the best players in the world to Old Trafford, but those really top stars are not stupid. Trafford is still shrouded in a cloud of fog, no one knows what is going on inside, will the club get better, or get worse?
In the end, is Manchester United building an invincible aircraft carrier, or is it just a sunken ship, everyone is working hard to repair it, but in the end they can't change the sinking ending.

I just want to say that Manchester United has brought in a lot of players, they are very strong, but what will happen as a whole?No one knows yet! "

Manchester City?

Situ Yunbing nodded and said: "Manchester City is a strong competitor. As long as they can get rid of the anxiety about the Champions League and become more mature, they will still be a strong opponent to stop Liverpool from defending the title."

About the strength of Chelsea.

"Chelsea has obviously strengthened the midfield and striker. I think Chelsea will have a big change in the new season. Mourinho's team does not lack the necessary conditions for success in the big picture. The key lies in the specific situation in the game. Played, when everyone is getting stronger, the victory or defeat of one or two games may determine the final championship, so it is meaningless to discuss other things.

Just like my first year at Liverpool, you all analyzed that Manchester United and Liverpool performed on par, but Manchester United lost the championship because Liverpool beat Manchester United at Old Trafford and Anfield , That was the decisive factor for Liverpool to win the championship. Others, it can't be said that Liverpool was better than Manchester United at that time. "

And finally Arsenal.

When Situ Yunbing talked about Arsenal, he shook his head and smiled.

"I think what you'd rather hear is a prediction about the title race than me saying every Premier League team.

But you guys seem interested.

I still don't think Arsenal are ready for the title because they are too fragile.

Ferguson's Manchester United can win the other 18 teams in the Premier League, but they can only get the runner-up if they lose to Liverpool!
What Wenger's Arsenal has to solve is that they may have three to five teams in the Premier League. There is nothing they can do.

Their core problem used to be that the lineup was weak, but now the problem is that the team as a whole is too fragile. On the one hand, it is psychological, and on the other hand, it is the team's technical and tactical style.

There is no doubt that the teams that are eligible to win the championship must be able to fight tough battles!

Mourinho's team has the temperament of fighting tough battles, and Pellegrini's team is a bit reluctant, but they have a strong lineup, so crushing their strength is also a way to make up for it.

Arsenal?
I think they are likely to even Tottenham and Everton will make them burnt out, and it is not their turn to participate in the cruel duel for the championship. Of course, if Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea all have frequent low-level performances and lose points If there are too many, Arsenal has a chance, but the probability of that is very small. "

Fleet Street reporters were not surprised that Situ Yunbing underestimated Arsenal, who had really let Arsenal down for many years.
