football's number one madman

Chapter 766: Something Happened!

"The CHAMPION of Europe!"

"King of Europe!"

Just three days later, on August 8, in distant Istanbul, Chelsea won their second trophy of the season:
UEFA Super Cup!
As the champions of the Champions League, they are facing Arsenal, the winner of the Europa League last season and has completed two consecutive hegemonies!

As the most successful head coach in the history of the Europa League, Unai Emery is quite satisfied with his achievements.

Although he only ranked 5th in the league last season, he had the last laugh in the Europa League from being surrounded by Real Madrid, Manchester United, Paris, Naples, and Valencia. tickets!
This achievement has not been easy.

However, Emery was not proud of this. Instead, he encouraged the club's top management to invest a huge sum of 1.4 million in the summer window for signings.

Seeing how generous Kroenke was after he left, Wenger almost shed tears!

Then he got a call from the man behind the new Wimbledon club - ah no, the big boss behind it:
"Professor, let me teach you a lesson for these ungrateful fellows!"

"That's it, you don't have to thank me!"

Then... Wenger was on the TV, watching the big boss rampage in the red crowd, and finally shot the goalkeeper Leno out of his feet!

16: 0!

After seeing this score, Solskjaer was even more dissatisfied!
[You got 18 of me, why did you only get 16 when you kicked Nana? 】

【You are blatantly discriminating against us! 】

Emery wiped away a tear:
[How is this considered discrimination? 】

[Our Arsenal was No.5 last season, and you are No.6! 】

[Our Arsenal summer window cost 1.4 million, and your Manchester United only tens of millions? 】

[Isn't it a matter of course that you were scored two more goals by Chelsea? 】
-
In just 10 days, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal, the three traditional giants, were all slaughtered by Chelsea, and the entire football world looked at them.

Although they were all double-killed, even triple-killed and quadruple-killed by Chelsea last season without exception, the effect of the show officially reached its peak after being killed consecutively in such a short period of time!
All of a sudden, rumors spread everywhere:

"One family dominates! The Premier League has finally become the second Bundesliga/French/Serie A!"

"Foreign capital may flee the British Isles!"

"The Premier League is about to lose its competitive vitality!"

"To stop the Blue Army's dominance, the British government may intervene!"

"Abramovich has been accused of multiple charges, and the Blues are afraid of dismantling it!"

Among the many messages, there is one that stands out.

Here's the breaking news from The Sun:

"It's been revealed! Lee Polo is deeply involved in the quagmire of gambling! He may face a complete ban!"

In the report, this gossip tabloid contacted the largest gaming company in the UK and found out a secret many years ago.

According to reliable sources, Lee Polo participated in gambling many times in his early years, investing hundreds of thousands through himself or his friends.

After a conservative estimate, they got hundreds of millions in return!
According to the trial, such gambling is definitely against the law!
As soon as the news came out, the entire football world was in an uproar!
"Professional players are prohibited from participating in gambling activities" is something explicitly prohibited by the Football Association.

Although there are a lot of players involved in gambling in British football, most of them just gamble in private.If it is put on the bright side and hard evidence is presented, the FA will definitely punish it severely.

A more recent case comes from the former bad boy Joey Barton.

As a youth training player of Everton, and later played for traditional teams such as Manchester City and Newcastle, Button once had a lot of popularity-on the one hand, because he was only negative.

Elbowing Tevez, kicking Aguero, shoveling opponents, beating teammates, attacking fans, locker room squabbles, red card specialists, bad mouth attacks, frequent suspensions, master-student rivalry, and the habit of drinking by British players...these For him, it was as normal as breathing and drinking.

In 2014, Barton, who had fallen to Burnley at the time, was revealed to have participated in gambling a few years ago and bought his own team...

Despite the remoteness, the FA found evidence and Barton was eventually charged with taking part in 12 bets over 1260 years, including some of his own.

The FA imposed a severe penalty of 18 months of suspension and a fine of 3 yuan, but after Barton's 3-year appeal defense, the suspension time was shortened to 13 months. Already 35 years old, banning the game has no meaning for him...

As the most influential newspaper in the world, the reliability of the "Sun" in the transfer market is almost zero, but the authority of these gossip on the sidelines is self-evident.

He is almost the most authoritative tabloid except for the citizens of Merseyside who scoff at his news!
In the face of raging public opinion, the FA had to respond:

"We have launched the investigation process and believe that there will be detailed reports in the near future."

"Even for a superstar with a title like Lee Polo, we will definitely enforce the law impartially!"

When everyone turned their expectant eyes to Li Poluo, they realized that the number one football star in football history, who always liked to enjoy the attention of public opinion, fell silent at this moment.

"Li Polo is guilty!"

"If it was him in normal times, he would definitely use the harshest yin and yang to scold the media that smeared him bloody!"

"Idol completely collapsed!"

"I have a bold guess: These 16:0, 18:0 scores, even his Champions League championship and Hercules Cup, as well as those Golden Globe Awards and World Footballer, were they bought with those black-hearted money?"

"After all... With Lee Polo's wealth, it is possible to buy the entire football world, right?"

"It's really ironic!"

"Lee Polo, who has achieved unprecedented dominance over the entire football world, is now coming to his end!"
-
Facing the malice of the whole world, Lee Polo has indeed fallen into an unprecedented crisis.

First of all, such things as gambling are indeed true.

It is not too difficult for the FA to investigate the evidence.

Especially when he asked Lisanna to bet on Leicester City to win the championship, the huge bonus of more than [-] million pounds, even if it was dismantled into dozens of accounts at that time, it was absolutely impossible to hide it.

Fortunately, he is not alone.

Agent Jonathan Barnett, who hadn't shown up for a long time, brought a team of lawyers to support him this time.

The father-in-law, Bruce Taylor, also immediately introduced his most trusted personal lawyer.

But these are not the most important things.

On August 8, after Chelsea swept Leicester City 18-10 in the second round of the Premier League, Lee Polo ushered in a familiar guest.

Chairman of the FA, Greg Clarke.

The guy who once served as the chairman of the Leicester City club, even if his old club has just been bloodbathed, is not too sad.

He just took the coffee the maid had just made and took a deep breath.

Then I asked:
"How do you want to solve this matter?"

What he meant was simple.

Li Polo can refer to the case of Joey Barton, have been appealing to the FA, and then repeatedly rehearing.

Wait until seven or eight years, or even ten years later, when Lee Polo, who is about to retire, will receive punishment...

It's just that it's a bit ugly to eat like this...

But Lee Polo shrugged:

"I plead guilty, how do you want to punish me?"

He has the confidence to push the problem to Greg, because the FA has long been on the same boat as himself.

Li Polo is not only the top star of the Three Lions, the guarantee of achievements and trophies, but also... the foundation he established has also carried out in-depth cooperation with many institutions under the Football Association, which can be said to be a trigger. whole body!

Even Greg himself invested a lot of pension money in Lee Polo's foundation.

Lee Polo must not fall down!

Greg thought for a long time, and finally picked up the coffee:

"Are you going to participate in the world championships in track and field in late September?"

"Then at that time, I will suspend you for a few weeks!"
