Chapter 216 Local Tyrant Vs Local Tyrant

August 2008, 8, was destined to be a crazy night, some people were looking forward to it, some people were gnashing their teeth, some people were beating their chests...

There were many more, who spent the night in the trees.

In the early hours of the morning, the Manchester United club announced that the team and Tottenham had reached an agreement to purchase the team's forward Dimitar Berbatov.Although the transfer fee was not disclosed, according to gossip, the transfer fee spent by Manchester United reached a staggering 3500 million pounds.This figure broke the transfer fee in Manchester United's team history.The highest transfer fee in Manchester United history was £3000 million spent on Ferdinand.

In addition, Robinho's transfer fee also reached 4000 million euros.

This figure has reached the second highest transfer fee in Chelsea's history.In the first place is Shevchenko, who is known as a "parallel importer"...

And what's more dramatic is that Manchester City's next league opponent is Chelsea.

The price was raised by Manchester City invisibly. I am afraid that Chelsea and Manchester United will be very exciting when they play Manchester City in the league.

The Manchester City fans who waited all night were a little disappointed. Manchester City did not sign on the last day of the transfer period, and it was obvious that the transfer window had been closed.

While Manchester City and Manchester United are playing the UEFA Super Cup, the Premier League has another round.

The leader Liverpool was equalized by Martin O'Neill's Aston Villa, while Chelsea came from behind, relying on the advantage of goal difference, to the first place in the standings.

The two teams have 7 points, Chelsea ranked first.After Arsenal lost to Fulham in the last game, they beat Newcastle United with 3 goals in this game and climbed to fifth place in the standings.

Manchester United, with one win and one draw and four points, is seventh.

Manchester City, which had two consecutive draws, slipped to 13th.

Of course, the league has only started three rounds, so it is too early to say everything.Maybe a victory in a game can become the leader.

After a brief look at the schedule, Duncan also paid attention to the physical condition of the players in the national team. After receiving all good replies, Duncan was relieved.

……

Apart from the Premier League, the most important game of this season is the Champions League.

At the end of the qualifying round, UEFA drew lots for the group stage.

Last season's champion Manchester United and the other seven league champions have been turned into seeded teams. In this case, at least Manchester City and Manchester United will not meet together in the group stage.

The final grouping result.Manchester City's group opponents include PSV, Marseille and Atletico Madrid.

Among them, Eindhoven was the opponent in the knockout round of the UEFA Cup last season. Marseille's home combat effectiveness is excellent. In the UEFA Champions League group stage last season, Liverpool also lost to Marseille at home.And Atletico Madrid, who returned to the Champions League after 12 years, is also a fateful opponent for Manchester City.

Because Manchester City just waved a hoe and bought Atletico Madrid's meritorious player who entered the Champions League last season, Aguero bought it.

So in the group stage, there will be a game where Aguero returns to the Calderon Stadium to play.

Compared with Manchester City, the fate of the other top three in the Premier League is relatively optimistic.Since Mourinho left, Chelsea has continued their excellent luck in the Champions League. Except for Roma, whether it is Bordeaux or Bruges, it is difficult to shake the Blues' top position in the group.

As for Arsenal, Porto's playing style is exactly what Wenger likes. The only variable will be Fenerbahce. This Turkish super team led by coach Aragones is expected to replicate last season's miraculous performance.

The contest between Manchester United and the Celtics has reason to become the focus of speculation in the British media. Among other opponents, Villarreal, who reached the semi-finals two years ago.It is likely that the fisherman will benefit.

In the blink of an eye, ten days later.

The last new aid of the summer, Thiago Silva also came and trained with the team for a few days.

The international match day is over, and the players who participated in the international match have returned to the club.Although a little tired, but fortunately the players are in good health. After two days of rest, they will be able to participate in the league match against Chelsea.

After three unbeaten games, Scolari gradually gained a foothold at Stamford Bridge, and the team showed a very good state.

In this encounter, Robinho obviously became a player who couldn't get around.

"Robbie is very happy to come to Stamford Bridge, and he has adapted well to the team. If there is no accident, he will appear in the lineup. Although there have been rumors of Manchester City introducing Robbie, in fact, as far as I know, They did not make an offer. So I still treat Manchester City's game with a normal heart. They are the defending champions, and this game is not easy to play." Scolari talked to the media.

Scolari did not say one more thing. Although Manchester City did not bid, there were rumors that they wanted to acquire Robinho, but they pushed up Chelsea's purchase price by another 500 million euros.

This data is enough to give Robinho a year's salary!
Scolari actually made a mistake, so he didn't think about it. If Manchester City really bid, then Chelsea obviously have no chance!
So logically speaking, no matter how much money was paid to buy Robinho, Scolari should thank Manchester City for not killing him.

Hey, old man, you have no sense of gratitude!
"There are rumors from the outside world that your two teams are the only two rich teams in the Premier League, and they both rely on a lot of money to build their lineups. So people are particularly interested in your direct dialogue. Have you ever thought about beating Le Mans City away? Duncan, how about you prove it to your boss?"

Scolari said: "In every game, no matter who the opponent is, I will strive to win! But it is only for the game itself. As for things other than the game, that is not something I have to consider. Manchester City's investment is indeed great. , and brought in a lot of players, but it will take a lot of work for Duncan to knead the team into shape."

"You bought Zhirkov, Robinho and Matic in the summer, how do you evaluate your transfer market in Chelsea in the summer?"

Scolari smiled, "Perfect! This summer is really a perfect summer, we have a good preparation period, I hope we have a perfect season!"

The last sentence also exposed Scolari's ambition.

"Manchester City wants to introduce me, I don't know! But I'm still very happy, thank you Mr. Duncan." Unlike Scolari's hidden needles and gnashed silver teeth, Robinho is quite happy.

If it weren't for the fact that there aren't so many jokes on the Internet, Robinho must be the founder of the happy football school.

In Manchester City's pre-match press conference, Duncan was answering reporters' questions.

"I think Mr. Scolari's remarks are problematic. We have brought in a lot of players, but these new foreign players have played at a good level. In the UEFA Super Cup, Yaya Toure scored a wonderful goal. Goals. So I think the team is getting better and running is not a problem."

"As for giving up on the introduction of Robinho, the boss has been in place for too short a time. We don't have time to investigate, so we have no choice but to give up. After all, to introduce a player, you can't just rely on his fame, but also on his actual performance."

Do you think I will tell you that Robinho's style of play is soft and he is a domineering player? If he doesn't train well, he is largely a parallel importer?

In fact Manchester City bought him and the guy was sold at a discount after one and a half seasons.
