Jagged Wings

Chapter 141 Premise left behind

The first is to transfer out. Bergkamp took a curtain call in the Champions League final. His retirement not only marks the loss of a generation of masters, but also represents the further rejuvenation of Arsenal.Then there was the departure of Ashley Cole. This soap opera was as long and complicated as Vieira's soap opera. Wenger didn't want to sell it at first, but Ashley Cole recognized Chelsea's high salary and kept going to others. It was posted upside down there, and then Wenger was willing, but Mourinho was unwilling, which led to the relationship between Wenger and Mourinho being on the verge of tearing apart.

Last season, the left-back Del Horno bought by Chelsea showed a large degree of dissatisfaction with English football. Although there were occasional shining moments against Arsenal, it could not conceal the sluggish performance throughout the season.So Chelsea, who are short of left-backs, once again set their sights on Arsenal.

As a result, Cole, who was played hard by Chelsea, gave up his morals again in the face of the high salary, crying and shouting to "be friends" with Chelsea, a local tycoon, but this time Wenger was unwilling. No matter how crying and rolling, he just keeps his mouth shut!
The third member to leave the team is Tie Shu Campbell, one of the members of the 03-04 undefeated champion. Campbell was injured for most of the season last season. I can't move anymore.Coupled with the rise of teenager Senderos and Wenger's "one-year signing" policy, Campbell, whose contract expired, chose to leave and join the downstream team Portsmouth.

The "soy sauce man" Xigan on the defense line also fulfilled his dream of "bench grand slam" after winning the Champions League, so his new dream is to become the main force, which Arsenal can't give him, so he followed Pires went to Villarreal for a fee of £200 million.

Then the young player Abeye left the team. Wenger's selection was a "big wave to wash away the sand", and the young Abeye was obviously the one who was taken away. Arsenal sold him to Moscow for 250 million euros.

Wenger, who has made a lot of money, is very "generous" to pick out a small part of the club's "huge" budget to buy people.

The first is the biggest transfer of the summer: Arsenal spent £680 million to buy Thomas "Football Mozart" Rosicky from Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga.Cooperating with Wenger's "beautiful offensive football" fleet thinking, Rosicky has gorgeous passing and dribbling skills, is capable of multiple positions in the frontcourt, and can well command the team's offensive rhythm.Unlike Hleb who likes to attack on the side, Rosicky prefers to get the ball in the middle!

The 26-year-old Rosicky is a "veteran" at Arsenal. After attracting him, Wenger's next signings returned to the point of "shotacon". First, he recalled the loaned teenager Hoyt from Sunderland. , he will replace Xigan.

Spend 400 million pounds to buy the Brazilian genius Denilson, promote the youth team teenager Lansbury, dig the teenager defender Merida from Barcelona, ​​dig the teenager Fonte from Sporting Lisbon, and recall the striker Jeremy Ariadiere ...

The best of these teenagers will become the future pillars of the Gunners!

Of course, there is still one transfer that has not been finalized, or two. The 33-year-old left-back Carlos is still brave and tenacious, but this cannot conceal the fact that he is old. The former "world's number one defender" now has the word "one" behind it, plus With the retirement of Real Madrid's left midfielder Zidane, the club urgently needs a powerful and famous left star.

They drafted Reyes!

Although Reyes only won the silver medal in the World Cup, but this does not conceal his brilliance. He started five times and made one substitute in six games. He handed over four assists and three goals.Especially Spain's two goals in the semi-finals and the final, the former was a penalty kick created by him, and the latter was a header he scored!

According to the German professional media "Kicker" magazine, Reyes' worth has reached an astonishing 5000 million euros!
If Real Madrid wants to buy Reyes, they have to compete with giants such as Chelsea, Manchester United, Barcelona and Inter Milan.

In February, "Lafayette" Florentino stepped down, and the new chairman Calderon was not as fond of "high-end atmosphere and class" as Florentino, and bought a vote to help Cassano, Owen, Van Nistelrooy is such an expensive "water dispenser player", he advocates "low-key luxury with connotation", he must have both fame and strength!

Reyes just so happens to fit his profile best!
The introduction of Reyes has also become Calderon's primary "achievement project" since he came to power. Although he can't be as extravagant and extravagant as Lafayette built a galaxy warship, it is also necessary to meet the status of Real Madrid!

If Reyes knew that his performance in the World Cup only had the comment of "worthy of Real Madrid" in Calderon's mind, I don't know how he would feel!
At this moment, although the Arsenal club's "poaching and being poached" is in full swing, Reyes, the protagonist, is still enjoying the summer beach style in Malaga.

Hleb flew back to London a few days ago to prepare for the new season. Reyes was delayed by a week because of his return to the team, so he is still enjoying the bikini beauty on the beach in Malaga... er, enjoying the sun!

Regarding the transfer to Real Madrid, he did not let go, nor did he promise anything, he was just procrastinating.He is very worried about what happens to Arsenal in the future. He is just a player, not a coach. He may be able to change the outcome of one or two games, but he is powerless to comment on the operation and transfer of the entire club.

But even if you go to Real Madrid, what is there?Compete with Figo and Robinho for a spot?

Torres is still on the coast of Malaga with Reyes. Unlike Reyes, he is waiting to report to a new club.

With the perfect performance in the World Cup, Atletico Madrid knew that he could not keep him. Even Atletico Madrid coach Murnia said: "If Torres chooses to leave, then I can understand it, because the current situation of the club has delayed his progress. Developed. And I still hope in my heart that he can stay at Atletico Madrid forever, but things may not always go as people wish."

Since they can't keep it, it's better to get together and leave, so they even announced during the winter break of last season that they would sell Torres this summer.

Since he was about to leave the club, there was no need to go back to report, so he stayed here to continue his vacation, and when the transfer dust settled, he went directly to the new club to report.

For this 22-year-old Shinco World Cup Golden Boot, the major giants are definitely eyeing him: After having Drogba, Crespo, and Shevchenko's three forwards, Chelsea has a big appetite and an asking price of 3000 million The euro wants to buy Torres; Newcastle, the old overlord of the Premier League, wants to find a suitable partner for Owen; Left Gilardino and Inzaghi two strikers, they need a striker...

Of course, these teams are only slightly interested. In the pursuit of Torres, there are three fastest running teams: Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United...

Liverpool has his mentor Benitez, and they offer 3300 million euros; Manchester United is very sincere, they have always needed a player who can partner with Rooney, and they offer 3500 million euros; finally Arsenal, Wenger's bid is only 3050 million million euros...

"From the price point of view, this price is really not sincere..." Torres joked like a raving.

"Well, if it wasn't for selling Pires last season and selling Abeye for 1200 million pounds this season, the boss's bid might be only half of that..." Reyes picked up a grape, and then opened Opened his mouth and threw it in.

"Tsk tsk, as expected of the legendary stingy head coach..." Torres curled his lips: "Then what do you think? Going to Real Madrid? As far as I know, although there are many voices and rumors outside, the actual You haven't expressed your opinion, what do you think?"

What Reyes thought was another thing. In his impression, after Torres joined Liverpool, he and Arsenal became brothers and sisters.In the next few seasons, the two teams achieved nothing, and they were always overwhelmed by Manchester United and Chelsea in the league. The best results were only second and third, and even reached the point of relegation in several seasons...

So miserable!

Ultimately, after several difficult seasons at Liverpool, Torres moved to Chelsea.

At the beginning, Torres joined Liverpool because of the famous Spanish coach Benitez, and on the other hand, Liverpool won the Champions League last season, which made Torres, who could only play in the UEFA Cup at Atletico Madrid, salivate.

Manchester United has dominated for so many years, and only tasted the Champions League once seven years ago...

But what about Arsenal?Arsenal were the champions of the Champions League last season!If Torres can come to Arsenal...

Once this idea took root in Reyes' mind, it was like a magic vine seed that received nourishment. It began to take root and germinate crazily, and then blossomed...

"Hey Fernando, which team are you going to?"

"I'm still thinking, Manchester United or Liverpool, it's really nerve-wracking!" Torres scratched his head and said with some distress.

"If you go to Manchester United, you may become a defensive striker like Wayne Rooney, because Manchester United's tactical system determines that he will not give you a core position; Liverpool is a good choice, they have Harvey Alonso , Gerrard and Mascherano are a world-class midfielder, but the ability of the back line and striker is several galaxies behind the midfielder. If they have a game or two, they may perform well, but They might lose stability when faced with a lot of games over a long period of time."

"Then you mean to let me go to Real Madrid?" Torres rolled his eyes. As a player from Real Madrid's deadly enemy Atletico Madrid, he might find it difficult to accept his allegiance to the deadly enemy...

Mind blowing!

"Go to Arsenal!" Reyes said, "I mean it!"

***********
The next day, Wenger received a call from Reyes' agent.

"Antonio agreed to stay at Arsenal, you know he and Torres are good friends, the premise for him to stay in the team is that Torres must join the team!"
