Chapter 766 Two Superstars
Unlike La Liga, where the two heroes are increasingly competing for hegemony, the Premier League has always been a four-nation story of the traditional top four. Second-tier teams such as Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa can also go crazy from time to time. .
And ever since Crazy Lee came to England with a miraculous appearance four years ago, and then almost hand-picked Newcastle, which was about to fall into the relegation zone, the pattern of the Premier League has become even more chaotic.
In the previous two seasons, the former hegemon of European football, the Red Army Liverpool, became a victim of chaos. It has not reached the Champions League for several consecutive years. The turmoil after Belites left has even made many people watch. It’s a sign that the former hegemon has completely fallen. Fortunately, with the change of ownership of the club and the arrival of the former [King] Dalglish, Portuguese midfielder Medeleis, [Buck-toothed Su] Luis Suarez and [Explosive Bear] An With the addition of Dee Carroll and a large number of talented players, the team slowly regained its upward momentum in the second half of last season.
The so-called prosperity and decline.
Compared with Liverpool's success, the upstart Newcastle has slowly lost its previous dominance and strength as time goes by. As a large number of core players such as [Flash Killer] Michael Owen and [Tough Guy] Alan Smith increase in age, the ball The team's state has inevitably entered a period of decline. The famous coach [Black Swan] Rijkaard tried his best, but he can only bring the [Magpies] into the European competition, and it is only the Europa League—— In last season's Premier League, Newcastle failed to withstand the menacing invasion of Premier League upstart Manchester City, finishing fifth in the league and losing qualification for the Champions League.
Newcastle failed to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in two years, leaving Newcastle in a storm. Media accusations came like a huge wave. The stubborn club chairman John Henry was criticized. The team's head coach Li Jaccard has been criticized, and the team's core players Owen and Alan Smith have inevitably been questioned.
At this time, Newcastle has inevitably entered a period of turmoil. This status quo is absolutely unacceptable to the ambitious club chairman John Henry. Therefore, in the midst of the cold wind and rain, the reorganization of the club was naturally put on the agenda.
In recent times, news about Newcastle's signings and purges have been reported in the media in England.
Wing Adams, defender Richards and former Wolfsburg center Edin Dzeko, who have lost ground at Manchester City, have all been rumored to have scandals with Newcastle.
In terms of midfield, Inter Milan core Sneijder, Tottenham midfielder Modric, Van der Vaart and others are also said to be players that John Henry is optimistic about.
At this time, Newcastle is facing the most typical embarrassment in the post-Crazy Lee era——
Losing the golden signature of Crazy Li and losing the qualification for next season's Champions League, the team's attraction to big-name stars will inevitably decline, so that in terms of signings, the situation of high and low is repeated again and again - - Players that Newcastle favors and believe can bring qualitative changes to the team are not interested in Newcastle, while players who are willing to play for Newcastle lack enough fame and strength.
However, the difficulties in signings do not seem to hinder the [Magpies]'s determination to purge players.
All of a sudden, shocking news repeatedly came from the major media——
In the latest report, "The Sun" was the first to break the news: "Newcastle, which is facing restructuring after the failure of the season, intends to purge the club's iconic star [Lightning Killer] Michael Owen..."
The news spread, causing consternation in the Premier League and even the entire European football world.
Countless people are in disbelief at the news that Owen has been sold by Newcastle. But after thinking about it carefully, I have to admit that the possibility has become very big at some point.
As the captain of the team, Owen has played for Newcastle for nearly 6 years. Except for the lackluster performance in the previous two years due to injuries, he later soared under the coaching of Crazy Li and showed incredible brilliance. He scored a lot of goals for the national team and club, becoming one of the most terrifying super ace forwards in European football. However, last season, long-lost injuries re-invaded the [Lightning Killer]. Irving only played 18 times throughout the season and scored 10 goals. He spent more than four months recovering from his injuries in the second half of the season, and according to Sports experts have diagnosed that Irving has relapsed from an old injury. Even if he comes back, he may return to the glassy state he had before 2007...
Obviously, Irving's current situation made the ambitious John Henry think of selling the [Flash Killer] before it depreciated too much to cash in, while introducing younger and potential players.
Henry was different from his father, Sir John Hall. He had always been an impersonal person. His previous experience as a successful businessman made him idolize Florentillo. Everything was based on commercial value, not to mention starting from a madman. Since the Lee era, the Newcastle club has been tacitly cultivating Steven Taylor, a loyal defender produced in the youth academy, as the core of the team's future. After all, Owen is a transfer and cannot represent Newcastle's tradition.
Under such circumstances, it seems reasonable for Newcastle to move on Owen.
The next situation confirmed the report of "The Sun", including well-known English football media such as "The Times", "Newcastle Post" and "Daily News", as well as authorities such as France's "Team" and Germany's "Transfer Market" Football media have all reported the news that Newcastle intends to push [Lightning Killer] into the transfer market. Irving's agent company also admitted this news in an interview with reporters. They did receive a notice from the Newcastle club... …
For a time, many European clubs expressed interest in Irving.
However, there are only some weak teams in the middle and lower reaches such as Everton, Sunderland, and Blackburn. There are also teams outside England, such as Roma in Italy and Villarreal in Spain. The former wants to use Owen. To replace Vucinic, who is rumored to be leaving the team, and the latter is going to use Irving to make up for the Italian teenager Giuseppe Rossi who may leave Barcelona...
Rich teams such as Manchester United, Arsenal, and Inter Milan have little interest in a forward like Irving who is often injured and is old.
…
…
Newcastle, England, is to the east of the city.
Danister Manor on the coastline is one of the most famous high-end communities in Newcastle. Many celebrities live here, and most of the stars who play for Newcastle have purchased properties here.
It is worth mentioning that [God on the sidelines of football] Madman Li also bought a villa here when he was coaching Newcastle.
Even after he left Newcastle, Li Tongfan's villa was never sold.
The villa area is adjacent to the sea, surrounded by Newcastle's largest sea defense dam. The ebb and flow of the tide are mesmerizing with the sound of the waves. As long as you leave the courtyard of the villa, you will face one of the most famous bathing beaches in England.
Blue waves, white clouds, salty sea breeze, seagulls and distant ships...
All this makes Daniste Manor no less popular than famous people and resorts in the world.
Therefore, the family's vacation spot was chosen here this summer. In addition to Li Tongfan, Wang Qinghe and their parents, Li Tongxun also came here with his girlfriend. It was rare for the family to enjoy the wonderful time of the group members.
Due to the relatively good privacy of the manor bathhouse and the good confidentiality work done when I came here, even some of my best friends didn't know that Crazy Li had come here.
Without being disturbed by the crazy paparazzi, Li Tongfan took a break from his busy schedule and spent two days with his family, enjoying the rare tranquility.
Two days later, Lao Li had to start the summer recruitment work.
The situation in the transfer market is strange. You gain strength by attacking first, but suffer disaster by attacking later. If you want to introduce your favorite players, you are always facing competition from other teams, so any delay is fatal, Lao Li
The first object is your neighbor.
…
…
After the season ended, Michael Owen did not follow the example of his teammates and fly to major resorts around the world to enjoy the sun, beaches and beautiful women. Instead, he stayed at home in Newcastle.
His villa is also located in Danister Manor,
Every day, I get up with the sun on the seaside in the distance and run 4 kilometers along the Fanghai Dam to maintain the body's competitive functions. In addition, Irving also performs various necessary fitness exercises in the gym at home.
The news that the team wanted to purge him had already reached his ears through the agency. Irving was neither happy nor sad about this. As early as last season when he was injured and absent, he felt that today was coming, and the club He knows very well what kind of person Chairman Henry is...
Newcastle...it's time to say goodbye.
His wife Louise, on the other hand, felt very indignant about what happened to her husband at St. James' Park. My husband scored 87 goals for the Magpies in three years and made great contributions, but he fell out with him whenever he wanted. It was completely inhumane, not to mention that Owen was not too old to play football?
"Michael, I think going to La Liga is also a good choice. Villarreal enters the Champions League next season and is at least better than Newcastle. This time they abandoned you, not you abandoning Newcastle. The fans will understand you. …”
In the living room, Owen, who had returned from running, had washed up and was eating breakfast. His wife Louise beside him couldn't help but comfort her husband and tried to make suggestions.
"Well, I have informed the agency that I will definitely not stay in Newcastle. As for which club's invitation I will accept, let's wait and see." Irving drank the milk from the quilt in his hand and exposed it to his wife A gentle smile.
He and Louise have been together since they were 6 years old. They have supported each other through ups and downs until today. When Owen was in the most difficult time, Louise always stayed by his side to comfort him. The two of them were in this materialistic world. In modern football, a rare childhood love fairy tale was created.
Therefore, even if Owen is in a bad mood, he will always try his best to adjust his mood when facing his beloved wife and keep smiling at all times.
The two were eating breakfast when a phone call came in.
Owen picked up the phone casually, listened to a few words, and his expression darkened.
After hanging up the phone, Louise looked at her husband nervously and asked with concern: "Michael, did something important happen?"
Irving was silent for a moment, and then said: "I got a call from the agent's company. Newcastle Club offered me a transfer price of 20 million pounds. Villarreal and Roma thought the offer was too high and gave up the negotiation... "
"How could they do this?" Louise exclaimed, "These damn vampires... Damn John Henry, let him go to hell!"
Price tag £20m?
Even if she doesn’t understand the mysteries of football transfers, Louise also knows what a worth of 20 million means to Irving in his current state. Under normal circumstances, basically no football club will accept such a worth. Roma The abandonment of Villarreal is the best proof. That damn greedy John Henry clearly wants to extort money. In many cases, this approach has only one result - that is to continue to waste Owen's transfer opportunities. In the end, Newcastle will reduce the price based on the sale, whatever. Deal with Irving to some bad team…
For a player who has joined the '30s' generation, the last transfer of his career is obviously a last-ditch effort, and its importance is self-evident. Newcastle Club's approach is simply to regard Owen as a profitable commodity and go to It's a dead end.
"If they go too far, I'd rather retire!"
Owen's personality is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Once his temper is aroused, he would rather break than bend. Louise stood up and held her beloved husband tightly from her back. She could feel her husband's anger from the violent rise and fall of his chest.
at this time--
Ding dong ding dong ding dong!
The doorbell rang.
…
Ten minutes later.
After seeing off the most unexpected guest, Louise excitedly hugged her husband and walked around in circles. She couldn't help laughing and shouted: "Michael, you are going to Spain, you are going to Real Madrid!! Oh hahaha, this is unimaginable, so wonderful! My dear, God must be blessing us, right?”
Owen's eyes also flashed with excitement.
Through the window glass, he could still see the black figure. Four years ago, the man saved himself from despair. Four years later, this scene happened again incredibly. The golden rays of the rising sun on the Newcastle coastline shine over, coating the fading figure with half the brilliance of gold...
Owen hugged his loving wife tightly and nodded: "Yes, dear, you are absolutely right. It is [God] who has been blessing us!"
…
After receiving a positive reply from Irving, the next operation of this transfer became very simple. Li Tongfan holds all the transfer rights of Real Madrid and a transfer fee of 200 million euros. It is easy for him to spend 20 million pounds to introduce Owen.
The next thing is for the club to discuss personal treatment with Irving.
Li Tongfan breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why I chose the troubled [Lightning Killer] was, of course, due to my long-standing love for Irving and the emotions of individual fans, who did not want England's most talented superstar to be ruined by injuries; on the other hand, of course, Considerations in terms of team formation - when you take charge of a new team, bringing in direct descendants is something that every coach will do. Irving and Lao Li have always had a very good relationship. In recent years, they have been in hot form and are famous enough to deserve it. Real Madrid, and most importantly, Irving's playing style and tactical characteristics have always been the candidate most needed in Lao Li's tactical system.
What's more, Irving has had a previous experience with Real Madrid and may be able to integrate into Spanish football culture more quickly. Lao Li also hopes that [Lightning Killer] can complete the conquest again after entering the palace for the second time, let those who laughed at him last time pay the price, and use the dignity of a man to stand up again where he fell!
After getting the [Lightning Killer], Li Tongfan methodically carried out the next step of rebuilding Real Madrid. He and the [Dog Head Strategist] used Torosi Tang to cleverly avoid the attention of the media and drove to the British capital London.
There, there is another player that Lao Li believes can bring qualitative changes to Real Madrid——
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
This young man who started his career at Barcelona's La Masia youth academy and became famous at Arsenal is recognized around the world as the most likely to become another master of midfield control after [ventilator] Xavi - in fact , In the past few years, Fabregas has already proven himself that he is already a world-recognized top midfield superstar.
It is a pity that Arsenal's consecutive lack of championships has worn out the last patience of this young player who longs for honors. This summer, the Spanish youngster made it clear that he will leave Arsenal. Godfather Wenger also promised not to bother him as early as last year. …
Under such circumstances, Fabregas has become a huge star in the transfer market.
Although Barcelona had already expressed its willingness to introduce this lost 'pearl' two or three years ago, and the grateful Fabregas has repeatedly publicly stated that Barcelona would be his first choice, but for several consecutive years The pursuit for a season has been fruitless, and the high transfer fee has made the wanderer's wish to return home never come true.
In this transfer period, although Barcelona still claims that Fabregas is one of their important signing targets, Li Tongfan, who has the FM system, knows that this young top midfielder is getting further and further away from Barcelona.
Crazy Lee saw an opportunity.
There is no doubt that bringing Fabregas to the Bernabeu will be a fatal blow to the team's main rival next season.
