[Football] The transfer fee is 10 billion

Arsenal's opponent in the quarter-finals of the Champions League was La Liga powerhouse Barcelona. At that time, as soon as the result of the draw came out, media commentators and neutral fans cheered.

Although the two clubs are in two different leagues, there is no shortage of old and new enmities between the clubs and the players.

First of all, the biggest entanglement is of course the 2005-2006 UEFA Champions League final.

In that game, Lehmann was sent off with a red card, but Arsenal took the lead in scoring. Ten to eleven persisted for most of the game. Seeing that there were ten minutes left in the game, Eto'o used a super goal A controversial goal equalized - he was offside before the goal and the referee turned a blind eye.

This obvious misjudgment directly caused Arsenal to be reversed with a 1-0 lead and missed the Champions League.

Wenger's ten-year hard work was lost to the golden finger of Barsap's godfather (Platini).

Later, in the 2010-2011 season, Arsenal faced Barcelona again in the knockout stage, with red cards and controversial penalties. Although Barcelona was very strong that year, the care of Pu Ganda did not decrease at all.

This is the grievance between the two teams on the court.The most sensational event outside the stadium was of course the incident of several Barcelona players giving Cesc Fabregas a jersey. As an Arsenal player, his half-push and half-acceptance aroused the anger of Arsenal fans. A series of coquettish operations opened the eyes of the fans even more, and this contradiction also rose among the clubs.

This time in the Champions League knockout match, it happened to be the first time Fabregas encountered his old club on the field after he transferred to Barcelona. Some time ago, there were rumors that he could not survive in Barcelona and wanted to return to Arsenal. Grid refused.

The onlookers, who are not too serious about watching the excitement, were silently looking forward to the draw, hoping that Arsenal would meet Barcelona, ​​so that they could see how Fabregas behaved differently when facing Wenger.

Of course there are many differences. Van Persie is a striker and has many chances to score goals. Fabregas is a midfielder, or a midfielder who can't play the main role in Barcelona. What opportunities can he have to perform?

"Speaking of which, Cesc Fabregas is also pitiful. At the beginning, he looked down on Arsenal for not having a championship, and he wanted to go to Barcelona. Now Barcelona wants to clean him up, but Arsenal doesn't look up to him anymore."

"What qualifications does Arsenal have to look down on him? Except for Alonso, is there really anyone in Arsenal's midfield who is stronger than him now? They are all young players with no hair. thigh."

The famous football commentator of Sky Sports asserted before this game: "Barcelona has Messi and Neymar in the frontcourt, Iniesta, Harvey and Busquets in the midfield, and Pique, Alba, Mason in the backcourt. Scherano and Alves, in contrast to Arsenal, although several young players have improved a lot under Wenger's training, but their reputation and strength are far behind Barcelona."

"But Arsenal's advantage lies in their great success in the domestic league this season. The league is unbeaten so far, the FA Cup has reached the final, and the English League Cup has won the championship. The last round of the Champions League reversed Bayern. Although the momentum is like a rainbow, But the players are also very tired, but there is no widespread injury wave in the team."

"Therefore, I am not optimistic about Arsenal winning this game, especially when they are playing away. As we all know, the style of these two teams is mainly pass and control. Arsenal is like a low-profile version of Barcelona. This game The game, I think the best outcome for them is to try to get a draw and go back to the Emirates Stadium and try again."

In fact, the commentator's analysis is quite pertinent, but it undoubtedly hurt the feelings of some gun fans. Their way of defending the home team is also very special: "That's right, facing the Cosmos team, our factory wins when it loses less."

"As long as I don't get kicked out of the tragedy, I can accept losing."

"I beg the universe team to treat you lightly..."

Ling Yun also knew that this game was not easy to play, not to mention other people, the name Messi alone was enough to make people frightened.Look at the praise of his fans online, look at the video clips everyone made for him, and look at the Golden Globes he won...

It seems that this is bad luck for Arsenal, and the Champions League will stop at the quarter-finals.

That's impossible, whether he meets Real Madrid, Barcelona or Bayern, in short, just do it!

He didn't want to put too much pressure on the players, so he tried to avoid appearing on the sidelines of the training field as much as possible, hiding in the office, and watching everyone work hard for the upcoming severe test.

However, Ling Yun has always been paying attention to Wenger's state. He found that since he rejected Fabregas to return to Arsenal, Wenger's attitude towards this matter has completely changed. It suddenly dawned on him that there were so many excellent young people under his hands for him to carefully craft, and he didn't need to be obsessed with someone who no longer had anything to do with Arsenal.

In this game, whether Cesc Fabregas performed supernormally or did not have a chance to play at all, he didn't care at all. All he wanted was to win the game.

The first round of the match between the two sides was held at the Camp Nou. The players arrived in Barcelona a day earlier, and Ling Yun flew there by private jet the next afternoon, five hours before the start of the match.

Along with him, apart from Nick who was always inseparable, there was also Luo Cheng who hadn't shown his face for a long time.

Before Ling Yun arrived at the airport, he received a call. Luo Cheng told him that Kroenke's football stadium in Inglewood, USA had been approved by the US government, and construction would start soon.

Ling Yun didn't realize for a while, what did this matter have to do with him.

He recalled the detailed reports he had seen on the matter at the time, and it seemed that it was a large-scale project that cost less than half of Kroenke's net worth.

When Ling Yun arrived at the airport, Luo Cheng had already arrived. After boarding the plane, the two of them read the documents at that time again.

This project is not just a rugby field, but a large-scale complex that combines business and entertainment.Kroenke and his wife, one of the heirs of Wal-Mart, need to invest $16 billion in this project, and they asked JPMorgan Chase and eight banks to invest $22 billion in this project. In the end, they didn’t have enough money, so they had to pool $[-] million. special bonds.

It will take 4-5 years to build this project, and it will take at least 2020 to put it into use. It also bears a huge debt of nearly 30 billion U.S. dollars. It will take 5-10 years to repay the debt. I don’t know if I want to make a profit. Have to wait until what year and month.

Luo Cheng said to Ling Yun: "This is the best time for us to acquire his shares."

Ling Yun also knows that now is the best time. Although Kroenke and his wife are rich, it is not a small amount to spend 16 billion US dollars in one breath, and this is just a budget. Who can say for sure when the project starts? Will there be any over-budget accidents in the future?

Now Arsenal is tasteless to Kroenke, and it is a pity to discard it. He can no longer get actual benefits from here, but he is reluctant to give up like this. After all, Arsenal is getting better and better now , the influence is getting bigger and bigger, and the market value will naturally rise with the tide.

Taking a step back, even if he wanted to sell the shares, he would have to hit Ling Yun hard.

Therefore, Ling Yun was not in a hurry to buy the shares in his hands. Anyway, he was panicked if he couldn't make any money. Arsenal didn't pay dividends, and they only had power struggles without any interest relationship.

Ling Yun arrived at Camp Nou half an hour before the start of the game. The last time he came to this place was in 2011, which was also the UEFA Champions League knockout match between Arsenal and Barcelona.

Just when he was about to walk into the box, Ling Yun received a text message from Alonso: "My parents are here, they came here specially to watch my game, and they want to see you too."

"..." Ling Yun looked at Luo Cheng next to him, feeling a little flustered, after all, Alonso's parents knew about their relationship, but Luo Cheng didn't.

The point is, if Luo Cheng finds out about it, then his whole family will know about it, and his father may fly over from China overnight, and then take him home and question him thoroughly.

But these are not the main points. What Ling Yun is really afraid of is that this matter will reach his grandfather's ears.

The old man is over 80 this year, and everyone in the Ling family doesn't know that he has high hopes for Ling Yun, the eldest grandson. If he suddenly finds out that his grandson's wife is a man with a beard, he might be very angry.

Ling Yun held the phone and thought for a while. Luo Cheng's English is good, but he doesn't know Spanish. Even if Ling Yun chatted with Alonso and his wife about the relationship between him and their son, Luo Cheng probably wouldn't notice ?

With this kind of luck, Ling Yun let Nick find the couple's location, and then invited them to his box.

He turned to Luo Cheng again and said, "There are two guests coming over in a while."

"Guest?" Luo Cheng was a little surprised. Ling Yun actually wanted to meet a guest at the Nou Camp Stadium. He didn't know if it was a sponsor who was negotiating cooperation, or a player agent who was interested in joining Arsenal.

However, he guessed wrong, Ling Yun quickly gave him the answer: "It's Brother Long's parents."

Luo Cheng understands that Alonso's parents came to the Camp Nou to watch their son's game, but Luo Cheng couldn't figure out why Ling Yun invited them to the box.There are as many as 25 players in Arsenal's first team. Could it be that Ling Yun has to take care of everyone's family members?

But he knew that Alonso was still living in Ling Yun's house. On second thought, maybe it was because the two had a good relationship that Ling Yun invited his parents to watch the football together in the box.

Anyway, this box is big enough, it's okay to sit two more people, Luo Cheng nodded, and didn't take this matter to heart, sat at the table and directly turned on the laptop, ready to chat with Ling Yun about work.

Ling Yun was not in the mood to chat with him about buying shares at this time. He had been paying attention to the movement at the door, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he immediately stood up and greeted him.

The last time they met was at Christmas last year. The couple were very happy to see him and brought him a small gift.

Ling Yun took the box from Mrs. Alonso with both hands, and opened it to find a jersey inside.Ling Yun took it out curiously and looked carefully, and found that it was a children's jersey, which belonged to a team he had never seen before. The clothes looked old, but they were well preserved.

Alonso's mother said: "This is the jersey that Xavi wore when he played football for the first time. We want to give it to you as a gift."

"Thank you." Ling Yun felt that this little jersey looked very cute, and looked at it several times. The game was about to start, so he folded the clothes and put them back in the box, asking Nick to help him put them away.

Everyone sat down to watch the game, there were guests in the box, and Luo Cheng couldn't keep dragging Ling Yun to chat about work.

To be honest, the game on the field was a bit boring. Both sides belonged to the pass-and-control type of teams. The game started 10 minutes, and everyone was patiently playing pass-and-control. There were no passionate long-distance attacks or quick counterattacks. .

Ling Yun, on the other hand, has been sitting beside Alonso's mother, chatting with her in a respectful and soft tone.

Luo Cheng couldn't understand Spanish, and he didn't know what they were talking about, and they would laugh heartily from time to time.He always felt that when Ling Yun faced Alonso's parents, he didn't treat the players' family members as if they were courting their daughters.

In the 30th minute of the game, Ling Yun was listening to Mrs. Alonso telling anecdotes about his boyfriend's childhood when he heard earth-shattering shouts from the stands.

Camp Nou is the largest professional stadium in Europe, which can accommodate nearly 10 people watching the game at the same time. The enthusiasm of the home fans has been high from the beginning to the present. For half an hour, the shocking shouts have not stopped even for a second. Very shocking.

In the area directly opposite to the box where Ling Yun and the others were located, the fans spontaneously put together an entire face of Messi's head. At this moment, each component of the huge head portrait has a slight angle, and the big head of the Messi king stands vividly. up.

Just now, Barcelona scored a goal, and the man who broke the Arsenal goal happened to be Messi.

A direct pass from Cesc Fabregas in the midfield, Mertesacker was a little slow to defend the cover, Messi pushed the far corner of the goal 8 yards from the left side of the penalty area, Fabianski He couldn't make a save and watched the ball roll across the goal line.

1 to 0, Barcelona temporarily leads at home!
