Chapter 46 Surprised the whole world!
Bielsa was really shocked!

He has learned from the club's core management that the team has basically finalized the transfer of Ibrahimovic and will announce it in the next two days, and Neymar's transfer is also coming to an end.

In other words, in the new season, he will have a shockingly extravagant attacking lineup even in the Premier League.

Such a set of lineups to play in League One is really reckless!
Unexpectedly, when the team suffered a draw with their opponents in the first game, Yang Huan even offered to sign in.

At this time, Bielsa was not only shocked, but also moved.

Because he felt Yang Huan's trust in him, support for him, and affirmation for him.

These are all heartfelt!
"Is the team still operating Pogba and Ravel? Morrison?" Bielsa asked with concern.

Yang Huan nodded, "Yes, these two players were sidelined by Ferguson, but I'm afraid it will take time to recruit them. I will try my best to get them done before the end of the transfer period, but they are still young."

"Then I need a player in midfield."

"Who?" Yang Huan said without hesitation, simply.

"Leverkusen's midfielder, Arturo Vidal."

Yang Huan knew this player, "Will he come to Southampton?"

"I'll try to convince him." Bielsa was quite confident.

This player was brought into the Chilean national team by Bielsa and won the main position of the national team in the hands of Bielsa. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was single-handedly promoted by Bielsa.

"Okay, as long as you take care of him, I can take care of Leverkusen!"

Bielsa has initially given up the 3313 tactics in the Chilean national team, and occasionally adopts a four-back formation according to the opponent. After coming to the Premier League, he insisted on a four-back formation.

In the midfield, he tends to equip a player from the wing next to the midfielder, plus a comprehensive midfielder, and adopts an irregular triangle position, so that the organizational responsibility will not be all on one player.

From this point of view, Vidal is in line with his positioning of the midfielder.

"Is there still no way to introduce Hummels?" Bielsa asked again.

Yang Huan nodded. He wanted to introduce Hummels through Mino Raiola before, but the Dortmund central defender has only played the main force in Dortmund. It is time to improve his strength quickly, so his agent father, who is also Bayern Munich's youth training coach, politely declined Southampton's interest in Hummels.

But he is now taking advantage of Southampton's interest to put pressure on Dortmund to renew his contract and raise wages.

Bielsa also knows that the team is currently only in the League One and is not attractive enough to many players.

Perhaps this situation will improve after Ibrahimovic joins.

The introduction of Zlatan Ibrahimovic is not only to improve the strength of the team, but also an excellent opportunity to show Southampton's ambitions, which is enough to make everyone clearly realize that Southampton is definitely not reconciled to dormancy.

"I want a goalkeeper." Bielsa thought for a while and asked again.

"Jose Fonte is indeed responsible for the goal just now, but goalkeeper Kevin Davis is also responsible, and considering his age and characteristics, he is not suitable to continue to be the main force."

Yang Huan nodded again. He also thought that a goalkeeper should be introduced, but now it seems that the signings are about to be accelerated.

"Okay, Vidal and a goalkeeper, you'll get it before the transfer period ends!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Huan patted Bielsa on the shoulder, "Don't feel pressured, take your time, I will always support you!"

Bielsa nodded heavily.

He really felt Yang Huan's trust and unconditional support for him.

After Southampton's home draw with Plymouth, everyone thought it was just an accident.

And many people who are familiar with Bielsa know that the Argentine lunatic has always had a bad start.

Although some media reported that Yang Huan went straight to the locker room angrily, no one took it too seriously.

But what no one expected was that two days later, Southampton lost 0:1 away to Swansea in the English Championship in the first round of the League Cup. Rodgers' team defeated Bielsa's Saints at home.

This defeat not only caused Southampton to be eliminated from the League Cup, but also caused Bielsa to be questioned by the outside world.

Southampton, as always, adopts aggressive and high-intensity oppressive tactics, crushing the home team Swansea, and also got 61% possession rate.

In the end, Southampton reaped their first loss of the season and bid farewell to the League Cup.

After the game, Bielsa couldn't hide his disappointment with the result of the game.

"We will not change our style, we will continue to adopt aggressive tactics, no matter who the opponent we face, no matter how strong the opponent we face, we have only one goal, to knock him down!"

Bielsa's remarks also received strong support from Southampton's management.

In an interview with The Sun, the team's executive chairman Nicola Cortes expressed the management's full support for Bielsa and expressed his firm belief that the team can quickly get out of adversity.

However, the outside world questioned Bielsa and Southampton's voice was getting louder and louder.

Amidst the doubts, Yang Huan finally ushered in the moment to reveal the cup.

…………

Morning, Southampton Airport.

Accompanied by agent Raiola and lawyer Pimenta, Ibrahimovic stepped off Raiola's private jet specially rented.

At this time, few people in the world knew that he had arrived in Southampton, even the staff at the airport.

After getting off the plane, Ibrahimovic picked up his mobile phone, took a photo of himself with the private jet, and then took a photo of Southampton Airport in the distance, and then sent it to the star account on WeChat at the same time.

As soon as he logged in, the 35 fans who follow his celebrity account all over the world received a reminder, and then everyone received the photos he sent up, as well as his messages.

"Today, I want to surprise the whole world with me!"

One sentence, two photos, immediately set off a huge response in the Internet and media fields.

In the past three days, die-hard fans, fans, journalists and media practitioners, as well as a lot of trolls, have hyped Ibrahimovic's WeChat star account, and there are various speculations about the new owner of the Swedish center forward.

The only thing that is certain is that Barcelona officially confirmed that Ibrahimovic is about to leave the team.

Where will he go?
This became a big suspense for everyone.

Therefore, as soon as Ibrahimovic's WeChat star account was updated, everyone went crazy.

"Private jet? Where is this airport building?"

"Milan?"

"No, I am familiar with the three airports in Milan, and I can be 100% sure that it is not Milan."

"That's Madrid?"

"Impossible, this is not Madrid."

"What's that place?"

At this time, it is not just guessing about Ibrahimovic's transfer, but guessing where the building in the photo is. Interestingly, no one guesses the answer correctly, but it does not prevent various rumors from spreading wildly.

Some said it was Manchester, some said it was London, others said it was Turin, and still others said it was a certain city in Sweden.

In short, there are all kinds of arguments.

An hour later, Ibrahimovic updated his WeChat star account again.

This time it was still a photo, a self-portrait of him lying on a hospital bed with his body bare, with various testing equipment attached to his body, and below it was a sentence, "They told me that my body is amazingly strong, what do you think?"

For a while, countless die-hard fans left messages below, most of them were supporting Ibrahimovic's words.

But there are also a small number of irony and sarcasm, which is nothing more than thinking that his one-year low in Barcelona has made it impossible for him to return to the top again.

At this time, the reporters, radio and TV stations and other media organizations that responded have paid attention. Even Sky TV Sports Channel also reported on Ibrahimovic’s WeChat live broadcast. At the same time, I contacted Ibrahimovic’s agent Mino Raiola and confirmed that a press conference will be held this afternoon.

However, this press conference will not adopt the traditional form of press conferences in the past, but will be broadcast live and interactive on WeChat. In addition to inviting media organizations, all interested fans are welcome to participate.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately exploded on the Internet. With the help of the trolls, countless netizens were excitedly looking forward to the holding of this special press conference.

You know, in the field of football, this is the first time that an Internet press conference has been held.

This undoubtedly caters to the tastes of those young fans, because they will not only have the right to participate, but also have the right to ask questions that only the media had before.

No longer like before, they can only play the role of watching with cold eyes and cannot enter the press conference. This time they will participate in the entire conference process on the spot. Many fans feel novel about this change, but they also welcome it.

As time gets closer, Ibrahimovic's WeChat star account is updated more and more frequently.

From the update once an hour before, to the update once half an hour later, and then later, 15 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes, even sitting in the car to take pictures and update.

On the Internet, more and more people began to notice this event.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, as the number one center forward in the world, has unquestionable influence, and rumors about his transfer have been hyped for half a year, and now, the answer is finally revealed.

And all netizens, all WeChat users can see this answer in the first time. This sense of witness to history and this sense of participation in history has attracted more and more netizens and mobile phone users to frantically pour into it.

Everyone hopes that they can witness this unique moment with their own eyes.

Some people may question Ibrahimovic's aura as the world's top superstar, and some even question Ibrahimovic's influence and appeal, but so what?
At least, all participants are eager to witness an innovation that has never been seen in football history!

Under such circumstances, hundreds of thousands of WeChat users became the best publicity medium. They publicized this event to their friends, relatives, people around them and everyone in their mobile phone address book. This also led to a blowout growth in the total number of WeChat users.

Under the quilt at home, on a bench in a park, at a company desk, in the shade of the main road, in the aisle of a bus... Countless people are holding their mobile phones, waiting for the start of this extraordinary press conference.

　Thanks to the two book friends [Feixu's Track] and [1076932425] for their rewards!
