Chapter 4 and One: "Love" is not what you want to sell, you can sell it if you want to!

After sending Mata away, Chelsea entered the stage of signings again.Serbian midfielder Nemanja Matic, who had a lot of scandals with Chelsea some time ago, is known as Chelsea's primary target in the winter transfer market. Mourinho wants to bring this midfielder Stamford Bridge took over the mantle of the magic lamp Lampard.

At the beginning of the season, there were rumors that Lampard wanted to leave Chelsea and go to other leagues.Of course, this wasn't a betrayal, but the magic lamp thought that he was too old to help the team, so he wanted to go to the minor leagues to pan for gold and spend the remaining professional time.But Mourinho's return disrupted his plans. The Portuguese, who entered the palace for the second time, had a personal chat with Lampard, hoping that the other party could stay at Chelsea, at least this season.

Although Lampard stayed, but the hero's twilight is a problem that will be faced sooner or later, so who will take the position of the Blues' starting main midfielder has become a hot topic.

Of course, the above are all "rumors from the rivers and lakes", but the so-called "no wind, no waves"
As a result, in the end, Matic and Chelsea "achieve a positive result". Chelsea officially announced the completion of the contract with Benfica midfielder Matic. The 26-year-old Serbian will sign a contract with the Blues. A five-and-a-half-year contract.

The specific transfer fee has not been officially announced, but according to major media reports, the transfer fee is about 100 million pounds.

What's interesting is that Matic joined Chelsea from the Slovakian team Kosice in [-] and played three times as a substitute in the [-]-[-] season. In January [-], as the Blues introduced David- Ruiz was sent to Portuguese club Benfica as part of the deal.

Matic made his Chelsea debut at the age of 21, when the Blues beat Wolves [-]-[-], and Matic also played in Chelsea's [-]-[-] defeat of Wigan in the final round of the Premier League in [-] , He also witnessed the Blues winning the Premier League trophy that season.

In August 1.9, Matic was loaned to the Dutch team Vitesse for a one-year lease, but was transferred to Benfica as part of the Brazilian central defender David Ruiz's deal halfway through.With his outstanding ability to control the scene and his passing skills, the 1-meter-four left-footer will gradually become Benfica's regular main force in the [-]-[-] season, and his performance is becoming more and more mature.In the direct dialogue with Chelsea in the Champions League [-] quarter-finals that season, Matic played in both legs.

After Li Zihan learned of the transaction, he almost couldn't help but ran to Stamford Bridge to sing the popular "Square Dance Base", the favorite "Love Transaction" in the hearts of grandparents.

"At the beginning it was you who wanted to separate, and you separated when you separated, but now you want to use true love to coax me back. Love is not what you want to sell, you can sell it if you want to sell it"

But he really didn't dare to go, fearing that "the strong man will never return once he leaves".
On the Arsenal side, Wenger was also asked by reporters about the transfer of the Bundesliga powerhouse Schalke's [-] young talent Draxler when he attended the club's press conference.

Wenger said that did not appear to be happening. "It's January 1 and we're not going to sign anyone. In every transfer window press conference I feel a little bit guilty because I don't have signings to announce, but I'm not going to lie. Ours The wounded are all recovering, and overall we have a strong lineup, and we will buy people if there are special circumstances, but not everyone can enhance the strength of the team, and adding players does not mean increasing strength."

At the same time, Wenger also told reporters that he would renew his contract with captain Vermaelen: "I am ready to renew my contract with Vermaelen. He is an excellent player and I am open and honest about it."

If the scandal between Draxler and Arsenal can be traced back, it can continue to the summer at the beginning of the season or even last season!

There are media rumors that Wenger wants to bring this young genius to Arsenal, and then make changes to him like cultivating Podolski.

And the German genius has indeed performed brilliantly in Schalke [-], just like Li Zihan in Arsenal now.At a young age, he has become an indispensable frontcourt core for Schalke [-], and the statistics of goals and assists are also considerable.

Although there are rumors that Wenger has always wanted to bring the Ruhr genius to the Emirates Stadium, the media initially estimated that the price should not be low.And after the professor transformed Li Zihan into a frontcourt "panacea", Arsenal's need for Draxler was no longer so urgent, but when Podolski, Walcott and Ozil were injured one after another. , it seems that Arsenal's demand for the German teenager is urgent again.
Leaving aside those "rumors" about the transfer, the battle for the league was rekindled immediately after bidding farewell to the FA Cup.

When the league comes to the No.20 third round of this season, Arsenal will go away to challenge the Saints Southampton, who have performed well this season.In the last round, Arsenal defeated Southampton at home, but this time the away trip is hard to say.

Wenger lined up all the main players he could get. Among them, Li Zihan and Cazorla, who did not enter the squad in the FA Cup and got a rest, played one after another, and Wilshere appeared in the starting list.

From the very beginning of the match, the two sides tried their best not to leave any room for the other side.With players such as Lambert, Lallana and Gaston Ramirez (Uruguayan midfielder), the Saints are not weak offensively.

In the first 10 minutes of the game, the two sides completed a total of five shots.Among them, Li Zihan's shot was the most threatening, but unfortunately it hit the corner between the crossbar and the post of the goal.

The Saints and Arsenal have one thing in common, that is, there are many very good young players.For example, they played against Lallana and Ramirez in their prime, as well as the full-back Luke Shaw who attracted the attention of many giants, and the iron-backed Wanyama who joined the team this season, and the young Center back Chambers and talented midfielder Ward Prowse.

Lallana was born in [-], and Ramirez took the last train born in the [-]s.And Wanyama and others are young players of the post-[-]s generation, and the youngest is the central defender Chambers born in [-].

Although these players are young but talented, they are now Southampton's main players.The outstanding young players who came out of this young guard know how well the Saints' youth training is doing. Now many giants are drooling when they see Southampton, and they can't wait to swallow it in one gulp.Among them are the inheritance of the two red jerseys of Liverpool and Manchester United, as well as the London duo Arsenal and Chelsea who want a share.

No. In the 15th minute, Luke Shaw sent a diagonal 45 cross from the wing.Koscielny was at a disadvantage in the fight for the header with Lambert. The French central defender made a mistake in the judgment of the landing point. Lambert went straight to the goal, but the height was not well grasped, and the ball went directly above the crossbar. .

No. 17 minutes, Arsenal in a ground coordination.Wilshere picked a pass into the penalty area to Li Zihan, and Hanniang tapped it to Chamberlain who came from the wing.Chamberlain made a pass from the bottom of the penalty area, but instead of going to Li Zihan and Wilshere in the middle, it was handed over to Cazorla in the far corner of the goal, and Cazorla shot the goal.The cooperation was wonderful, but the ball still failed to score and the ball was confiscated by goalkeeper Boruc.

The two sides just attacked like this, and the fans who watched it were hooked.It's just that the fans of Arsenal and Southampton are not feeling well.Because of this level of offense, maybe he or the opponent will score a goal in the next second.So my heart is always hanging, both excited and exciting.

In the No. 40 minutes of the game, the goal was long overdue.

Ramsey's shot from outside the penalty area hit the thigh of the midfielder Wanyama who blocked the ball route.But Li Zihan first controlled the ball's landing point. He didn't stop the ball, but faced the irregular rebound, raised his thigh, and swept a half-volley volley.

The ball flew into the opponent's goal quickly and urgently. The central defender Lovren and the goalkeeper Boruc could only stare blankly.
Li Zihan used his excellent sense of smell in front of the goal to bring Arsenal an away goal, and at the same time, he also expanded his league goals to [-] goals. Now he is proud of the top scorer in the Premier League, ranking behind him The most outstanding is the Uruguayan striker Suarez with two goals less.But considering that Suarez was suspended for six rounds at the beginning of this season, he didn't play his first game until the seventh round of the league.Suarez, who has played six games less, is obviously more terrifying than Li Zihan's scoring statistics!
When Li Zihan made his debut in Serie A last season, he was a strong contender for the Serie A Golden Boot, but he lost to Cavani in the last regrettable goal.But I didn't expect Li Zihan to attack the league's top scorer in the first season of joining Arsenal, and his biggest opponent this time is also a Uruguayan.
Last season, he won a league silver boot award and a league assists leader, which made Li Zihan covet the throne of the league's top scorer even more.

But Li Zihan and Arsenal's goals were not happy for long. After a 15-minute intermission, the score was rewritten at the beginning of the second half.

On the first play of the second half, the Saints struggled to get the ball into the thirty-yard zone.Captain Lallana swept the middle from the bottom of the penalty area, and Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez shot in front of the goal.It was just rejected by Szczesny, but the crisis did not come into contact.

The ball came to Southampton's top scorer, center forward Jay Rodriguez.Facing the half-high ball blocked by Szczesny, Rodriguez touched his forehead, and the ball quickly flew towards the goal.

Modesat stretched out his long legs in front of the goal, trying to fish out the ball, but the speed of the big man was not as fast as the ball.The ball flew into the goal before his long legs straightened!
