Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 983 Set off for the new season!
Situ Yunbing returned to the UK with his son, and after Sigrid finished her official duties, the family of three went back and forth to play in resorts near Europe.

This may be the most carefree summer Situ Yunbing has had in his coaching career. He doesn't have to worry about the team's lineup, nor does he need to think about the pressure of the record.

Liverpool has no urgent need for signings. He asked the club to pay attention to a few players, but now they can only be loaned out, so they have to wait until the right time in the future to sign.

The Confederations Cup is a bit tasteless, and the attention is not lukewarm. On the contrary, the most sensational event in football this summer is Paris Saint-Germain poaching Barcelona's second superstar Neymar!

In the eyes of many people, this is almost impossible to happen!

Even if Neymar does not reach Messi's pillar status in Barcelona, ​​but such a scarce, superstar player, no giant will let him go!

Just like it is hard to imagine Liverpool selling Gareth Bale, Mbappe, Van Dijk, Chelsea selling Hazard, Manchester United selling Pogba, Manchester City selling De Bruyne
It's not that other giants don't want to poach corners, but the club will definitely protect its signature star tightly and will not give other giants a chance to get involved!
For a transfer of Neymar's level, if there is no player who is determined to leave the team, I am afraid there will be no possibility of facilitating it!

Under the constraints of UEFA's Financial Fair Play Act, it is impossible for Paris Saint-Germain to pay Barcelona a transfer fee of more than 2 million euros to buy out Neymar's contract.
So Paris Saint-Germain used a curve to save the country. The Qatari government hired Neymar as an image ambassador, and then paid Neymar an endorsement fee of 2.2 million euros. Then Neymar took the money to buy out his contract and become a free agent. Players, free to join Paris Saint-Germain!

Such an operation caused an uproar in European football!
The major giants are denouncing Paris Saint-Germain for not only disrupting the market, but also playing with the rules set by UEFA!
If the operation according to Paris Saint-Germain is legal, then the Financial Fair Play Act is completely meaningless. For those players who can buy out the contract, all clubs can entrust an agency company to perform intermediate operations, and then let the players become free agents. Join the club as a member of the club without having to record this expenditure in the financial expenditure!
UEFA also urgently amended the regulatory loopholes in the Financial Fair Play Act.

But for Paris Saint-Germain, they do not plan to punish them. After all, there are loopholes in the rules, so players cannot be blamed for taking advantage of the loopholes.

Neymar lost 2.2 million euros to Barcelona and left the team. Barcelona turned around and went to Dortmund to buy Dembele, a rising star in the Bundesliga last season, for 1.05 million euros.

Liverpool bought out Griezmann at a price of 8800 million pounds, which is only 1 million euros in euros!
Dembele is worth more than Griezmann!

The transfer market in European football is becoming more and more crazy, not only surprised the outside world, but even the insiders can't understand it!

At the beginning of July, Liverpool began to prepare for the new season. Situ Yunbing returned to the team and began to preside over the work. Except for Robertson and Azpilicueta who were still recovering from their injuries, all other players returned to the team to actively prepare for the new season. .

Situ Yunbing did not hold a new aid conference for Griezmann. He wanted to reduce the pressure on him. After all, it took a process of adaptation from La Liga to the Premier League, especially the pressure of Liverpool's striker competition is very high!

If Situ Yunbing hadn't wanted to compete for the championship across the board, I'm afraid he wouldn't have spent a lot of money on this signing!

He needs to have substantial reserves on all fronts.

The three players who were loaned out for half a season last season performed well. Situ Yunbing does not plan to loan them out again in the new season, unless they are eliminated in the local cups halfway through.

The International Champions Cup official once again invited Liverpool to participate in the International Champions Cup. Last year, Liverpool did not participate in the World Cup because of factors. Before that, they participated in the International Champions Cup consecutively and won the championship. Therefore, the outside world is looking forward to Liverpool's appearance.

However, in view of the fact that Liverpool was suppressed by various tyrants in the sprint stage of the season last season, Situ Yunbing was very aggrieved. He would rather give up the benefits of summer commercial promotion for the new season, just to better prepare for the new season!
Liverpool is not going anywhere, just trying to adjust the team to the best state at home!
Inviting some strong teams from the second-tier European teams to Anfield for a warm-up match as a guest, it made the atmosphere of local football very high!
When the time came to the beginning of August, the signings of the major teams in the Premier League were coming to an end. This summer, the Premier League teams are still the main force to spend money.

Liverpool's expenditure of more than 5000 million pounds is simply not on the table!

Chelsea introduced Rudiger, Morata, Caballero, Drinkwater, Zampacosta in the summer and spent 1.6 million pounds!
Matic, Ake, Cuadrado, Begovic and other players were sold, and about [-] million pounds were recovered.

Arsenal's Klopp focused on introducing Salah and Karius from Roma, and cleared out some marginal players. The overall investment is not large, but the improvement is obvious. His trident finally took shape!

The main event is the Manchester duo!

Mourinho led Manchester United to win the UEFA Europa League last season, and found another way to enter the new season's Champions League. Manchester United continued to increase their efforts in signings. Lukaku, Matic and Lindelof Add up to smash more than 1.4 million pounds!
Manchester City is even more ruthless!

Guardiola almost rebuilt the defense, goalkeeper Ederson, defender Walker, Mendy, Danilo, midfielder Douglas Luiz, winger Bernard Silva, a total of more than 2 million pounds!
The seller only recovered 6000 million pounds!
All the powerhouses in the Premier League are trying to become stronger, while Tottenham are still doing business on a budget. They sold Walker and recovered more than 5000 million pounds. They brought in Aurier to replace them, and then introduced Sanchez and Llorente. support balance.

Last season's FA Cup final was a London derby. Klopp led Arsenal to defeat Chelsea, leaving Chelsea empty in the final season.

The 2017 Community Shield will feature Liverpool and Arsenal.

The day before the Community Shield match, Situ Yunbing attended the pre-match press conference at the Melwood training base.

The entire press hall was overcrowded, even the aisles were full of people.

After a summer of silence, the reporters were all overwhelmed!

After Situ Yunbing sat down on the stage, he greeted everyone with a smile: "Hi everyone, are you happy for the holidays?"

There are not only Fleet Street in the audience, but also media reporters from other European countries. They smile at each other. Players and coaches have vacations, but where can journalists have vacations?

The most distressing thing is not only no holiday, but also no news!
It can be said that the summer of non-competition years is the most difficult for them.

It's not interesting to turn over and over the news that it's nothing more than hype about the transfer.

Situ Yunbing is very familiar with many reporters in the audience. After all, he has been coaching in the Premier League for five years. Apart from the Sun, other major newspapers and tabloid reporters, including traditional media and emerging Internet social media sports reporters, He is very familiar with them, and sees them almost every week, even though he has never had any in-depth communication, he never looks up.

When the press conference officially started, the reporter of The Times asked solemnly: "For the upcoming new season, are you satisfied with Liverpool's lineup? Will there be new moves in the transfer market? New season What is Liverpool aiming for?"

Situ Yunbing laughed immediately when he heard the words: "It's really the style of "The Times". Such a serious question requires me to think carefully before answering."

Everyone in the audience burst into laughter, and the reporters who were familiar with Situ Yunbing knew that before the season, he would not be too serious, and he could even speak freely with them.

Situ Yunbing only paused for three seconds and then said: "I am also troubled by signings, so I hope you can give me some suggestions, what do you think are feasible transfer targets that are helpful to Liverpool?" ?”

The reporters shrugged their shoulders. Obviously, everyone knows that according to Liverpool's current level, there are very few players they can look at, and most of them are even if Liverpool are interested, but they can't buy them at all!

Therefore, signings should actually be combined with the actual situation.

Situ Yunbing has been coaching for nine years, and he has never performed blindly in the transfer market. He has a perfect grasp of the balance between the cost-effectiveness and demand of signings.

Situ Yunbing then smiled and said: "I think Liverpool's season goal should not have a second goal besides going all out to win all the championships that can be won, right?
Although such a question sounds very formal, it is like asking a recruit, you are going to the battlefield, what will you do, how many enemies will you kill, are you determined to win the war for us? "

Everyone in the audience laughed again.

The "Times" reporter said to Situ Yunbing helplessly: "It is obvious that Liverpool gave up the League Cup and the FA Cup last season."

Situ Yunbing said unabashedly: "In your eyes, Liverpool has given up two cup games, because we did not send all the main lineup in the losing games.

But what is the reality?No team can equip two top-notch 11-man lineups, and at the same time guarantee that these 22 people will not suffer injuries!

No team in the world can do it!
And if you use a lineup with the greatest probability of winning the game, is it an all-out performance?
Maybe, but that kind of all-out effort may end up with nothing!
Because no matter how strong a player is, he needs to rest!
If you consider a deeper level, team lineup construction also needs to allow the team's substitutes and young players to have enough playing time!

So did Liverpool go all out?I think it can be seen from the results that we won the most important championship, which is the best result that the team can finally get after giving everything! "

The reporters at the scene nodded in agreement.

At least no one will think that Liverpool's home cup exit is a strategic abandonment, and it is normal to lose the game with conditional efforts.

No need to nitpick.
