ball at foot

As Liverpool prepare to play, they also have another thing to do.January is here, and every team in the Premier League also needs to prepare for signings.

Liverpool's current main lineup can be said to be quite good, and there is no need for major surgery.Although there was a problem with the midfielder, Liverpool couldn't find a new midfielder for a while.But even so, after half the season, some adjustments still had to be made.

First, several people who didn't have a place on the team wanted to leave: Smicer was one, Kewell was another.In the summer, Liverpool had just won the championship, and everyone was happy, and they were willing to stay in Liverpool, but after half a season, they had no chance in Liverpool, Smicer could hardly play, and Kewell On the other hand, they fell into a state of injury on the field again, which made the two of them make up their minds to leave.

The departure of the two of them can still bring some transfer fee income to Liverpool.Smicer and Ligue 300 clubs are willing to introduce him. His transfer fee is also set by Liverpool at around 700 million before he can leave. This price is not high, and some teams are willing to introduce him.But Kewell is more troublesome, his strength is higher, but because his injuries have too much impact, few mainstream league teams are willing to take a gamble and buy a high-level player with many injuries. .On the contrary, Turkish players are willing to pay around [-] million yuan to introduce him, but Kewell himself is not very willing to leave the mainstream league. Therefore, their deal has always been under negotiation.

In addition to their departure, Liverpool also decided to sign up.But now, the players who have the most rumors with Liverpool are still mainly forwards. [

Several of Liverpool's strikers are actually not bad.Morientes and Milito are playing very well now, while Fowler has not scored many goals in the past half season, but his state has also recovered.Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Liverpool does not need a supplementary striker.

But Benitez doesn't think so.He still wants to introduce another striker, and the biggest reason is that none of these three strikers is fast. If Liverpool needs to counterattack, they will not play a big role. Now they can only rely on Zhao Yaning and Gerrard, if there is a speed shooter, it will be of great help to Liverpool.

On this issue, Benitez agrees with the club: it is better to buy a British native than a Spaniard.Although Spain has many good players, when it comes to speed, they are indeed not England's opponents.After all, the training focus of Spanish football is different. Comparing body and speed with the guys in the Premier League is completely asking for trouble.

And England's best speed shooter need not think about it, everyone knows that it is Michael Owen.In the summer, after he officially broke up with Liverpool, even Gerrard, who had the best relationship with him before, would no longer open his mouth to welcome Owen.That man is a taboo in Liverpool, no one will mention his name now.

As for the other shooters who rely on speed and counterattack, the most outstanding ones, and the ones Liverpool can afford, should be Bellamy and Walcott.

When it comes to pure combat power, Bellamy is naturally better: born in 79, he is much older, with more mature abilities and more sophisticated style.And although Walcott is favored by the whole of England and touted as a star of tomorrow, he is still a little kid after all. In terms of immediate combat power, there is no way to compare with Bellamy.

After all, Bellamy is a player who has been in the Premier League for many years, and he is much more mature than Walcott.In fact, in terms of his strength, there is no problem at all as a substitute for a strong team in the Premier League.His speed, dribbling ability, and ability to combine man and ball are even higher than Irving's - but his shooting skills and ball quotient are much worse than Irving's, which also limits his level .But if you arrange a suitable tactic for him, he should be able to play a role.

Walcott was a different story.He is a new star in England, with great potential, and his speed is amazing. The English media said that when he ran with the ball, no defender could keep up with him, and even said that his speed was the speed of a track and field athlete. These things, after watching After he played football, it really made people think it was possible.But potential is just potential after all, and it is difficult for him to be of much help to the team before it is transformed into strength.If bought, he might not be able to make an immediate impact.

After all, among all the abilities he has shown now, except for his amazing speed, his dribbling, passing, and shooting skills are all good among his peers, but they are not so extraordinary.Although many people think that he is going to become a star, it is hard to say whether he can really develop. After all, the youth training tradition in England is not very good, and there are too many people here who have not developed.Having potential and showing strength are two different things.

But if he developed it, it would definitely be very scary.Such a player with strong ball ability at his feet and speed support, as long as he can get the hang of it, is an absolutely valuable signing.

In fact, as an English player, even if he can't play at a very good level, as long as he is not seriously injured and has this speed as a guarantee, he will still play in the Premier League. His worth will definitely not lose too much .Even if he can't play, this journey with the gilded giants is enough for Liverpool to get back some when he leaves.

Which is better to buy - this is Liverpool's woes.

If you buy Bellamy, you are betting on this season.Such a player, on the one hand, will definitely not make much progress in the future, and on the other hand, his personality has never been very good, and it may not be possible to stay on the team for a long time.But fortunately, his worth is cheap, even if it is a winter transfer, he can be bought with about 500 million.Secondly, it is Liverpool this season, and it is indeed worth a gamble. If his arrival really helps Liverpool win the championship, this deal will be worth it.

But the team has other considerations: Figo is old after all, and he should retire after playing for at most three years. Even if he doesn't retire, he should consider finding a place to retire. He must not be able to adapt to the requirements of the rich.Liverpool always have to find someone to play on the right, and Walcott's age, with proper training, might be able to play on Liverpool's wing in the future.

And what makes Liverpool's management even more exciting is that Walcott himself is a Liverpool fan, and such star players who have a good impression of their team are rare.

And Walcott became a Liverpool fan, not because he was from Liverpool, or a diehard Liverpool fan.The reason why he became a Liverpool fan is an interesting story: he was spotted by Chelsea and West Ham United at the same time, and they all hoped to buy him.In order to attract him to join, the Chelsea team invited him to watch a Chelsea game, hoping that the demeanor of the Chelsea superstar in that game would impress him.And that game happened to be Chelsea against Liverpool.And after watching this game... Walcott became a staunch Liverpool fan

Of the two of them, which one to buy is Liverpool's biggest question.

And when Benitez hadn't considered this issue, Parry had already found out, "Our winter signings have already been figured out-we are going to buy Walcott from Southampton for 1200 million." , don’t be too happy, just treat this as a gift from me.”

Who said I was happy... Benitez said something in his heart, but at this time, he still had another question. [

"Why are you so generous this time?"

"I've always been like that... well, I've done it for a reason. Walcott has other people in addition to us."

After asking, Benitez understood why Parry was so generous.It turned out that Southampton told Liverpool and Wenger also made an offer for Walcott. Now Walcott has more than one choice.

If it was someone else's offer, Parry might not have felt anything, but since Wenger made the offer, it moved Parry's heart.Wenger's vision is well known all over the world. Can the players he likes be worse?

"I snatched this person from Wenger. Although it costs a little more, it is worth it. Can there be any mistakes in the person Wenger values?"

Parry is still very happy that he was able to snatch someone from Wenger.This season, Liverpool is finally a little richer.As soon as the Asian market brought by Zhao Yaning opened, Liverpool’s income increased by tens of millions in half a season.Such a situation naturally made Parry decide to splurge, even if he bought a rising star like Walcott, he didn't feel bad about it.

"This is indeed a good addition to the team." Benitez could only agree with this signing, "And if the club's funds are relatively rich, it is best for us to pay attention to the left Recruitment at the defender position. Neither Traore nor Warnock can play well in this position. We still need to pay attention to players in this position. Riise’s style of play requires high physical fitness , I think his peak period may not be too long, we have to start preparing for this position earlier."

This made Parry hesitate for a moment before speaking, "Why didn't you say this earlier, if I had said earlier, I would have packed Southampton's left back Gareth Bale, but you said it too late, he has already been taken by Wen But don't worry, we will definitely have other targets. Manchester United is also thinking about buying a left-back now, they are eyeing Monaco's Evra, or we will grab their people?"

"Evra is a bit older. If he comes, his peak period will inevitably overlap with Riise. The two need to seize opportunities. This is not good for the atmosphere of the team. It is difficult for us to predict whether there will be conflicts. .We should pay attention to younger people. And, it doesn’t have to be now, we don’t need him now, and we will need him later.”

"Ok."

When Parry finished speaking, he still couldn't help his excitement, "It's okay, you can leave this matter to me with confidence. We are rich now, and our fame has returned. Arsenal have their hands full and we've got our best half-time result for a long time and now we're short of a title, so let's take it down!"
