long live the king

It should be said that Manchester United's offer is quite sincere. If Saha's worth is included, it is still relatively good. "All Market" made a price of 1000 million euros for Saha. *When Saha transferred to Manchester United, he was worth 1 to 1000 million euros. Now it seems that the value has not depreciated much.The media in other countries ridiculed this as the prosperity of the Premier League.

However, the problem lies in Saha's worth. After several seasons, the state of the French shooter is really average. In addition, Saha is about to turn 30 years old. For shooters, The age of 30 is a hurdle. After the age of [-], the competitive state will begin to decline.

Therefore, Ancelotti didn't like Saha at all.

Alex, what are your thoughts?Galliani looked at Ancelotti, meaning, what do you think about this matter, you have to express your opinion.

Reject them, reject them all!Ancelotti replied without hesitation that he would not sell it for any amount of money.Just kidding, Ancelotti puts a lot of value on Zhang Yang, and he has trained Zhang Yang as the future standard bearer of the Milan team. Where will he sell him?Besides, Ancelotti could see clearly that he sold Zhang Yang, no matter how much money he spent, he would not be able to buy such an outstanding player!

Zhang Yang's talent and strength; Zhang Yang's hard work and attitude towards games and training, all of these make Ancelotti very satisfied. How could he sell such a shooter?

Stop thinking about it?Galliani laughed and asked, he was very satisfied, he had already guessed that Ancelotti would be his ally, and now it really is.

Ancelotti also laughed, and they have the same position on the matter of maintaining publicity.Ancelotti is the coach, he has only one preference for players, how is the performance!As long as the head coach is a shooter who likes to score goals, how could he not like it?

Ancelotti was a little annoyed that the big boss of the team wanted to sell the team's top shooter just because of his personal preference.

On the Manchester City side, Manchester City coach Mark.Hughes is also having a headache. What he has a headache is that the team really needs a shooter 1,.There have always been rumors about the future of Manchester City. The current boss of Manchester City is still the former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra of Thailand. However, everyone knows that Thaksin Shinawatra may leave at any time, and the new boss is coming soon.mark.Hughes also knew that the future owner of the club might be an Arab, but before everything was settled, no one knew what the final result would be.

But, it's today, Mark.Hughes met the team's future boss in advance, um, to be precise, the assistant of the team's future boss.A man wearing a turban found him in the hallway outside his office.

mark.Mr Hughes.Good morning.That person is very polite.

Hughes froze for a moment. He didn't know this person. Before he could ask, the person continued to speak.

I am Saleh, Mr. Fahim's assistant.The man introduced himself and seemed not at all worried about Mark.Hughes would wonder who that Mr. Fahim was.

mark.Of course Hughes knew about this Mansoor.Who is Mr. Fahim, the legendary new owner of the Manchester City club, at a time when many are still speculating about Mansour's background, thanks to his status as Manchester City's head coach, Mark.Hughes knows a little more about the team's new owner.

Mansour is the CEO of an international oil investment company. It is worth mentioning that this company owns one-tenth of the world's oil. In addition, Mansour has many other identities, such as the chairman of the International Horse Riding Association, the largest Mercedes-Benz Shareholders, in addition, this person also owns shares of Volkswagen and Porsche. His uncle is the head of state of the United Arab Emirates, and his father is the secretary general of the United Arab Emirates.The eldest wife is the daughter of the sheikh of Dubai, the second wife is the royal princess, and the Abu Dhabi consortium he belongs to is even rumored to have more than 5000 billion pounds.

Mansour is not just a businessman, he is also a politician, a member of the UAE Council of Cabinet and Minister of the UAE Head of State Affairs. [] Under his umbrella, he owns aircraft carrier-level assets such as the First Gulf Bank and the International Petroleum Investment Corporation.

Mansour is also the chairman of Al Jazeera Sports Club and the Chiefs Elite Racing Association.If he is short of money and needs some pounds, he can ask his wife Manal for help, because Manal is the daughter of Dubai Sheikh Al-Maktoum1.Mansur and Manal have two children, a 4-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old son.But he also has a wife and an older child.

Well, in a word, the new boss of Manchester City is a super rich owner with two wives. Of course, the most important thing: this is a owner who is really not short of money.

The question is, why did Manchester City become the lucky ones?Why did Mansour choose Manchester City?

And that's exactly what Mark is.Hughes' doubts, he really couldn't understand why such a rich man would choose a mid-lower team like Manchester City?

That question now seems to have an answer.

Ah, Mr. Saleh, good morning.What do you want from me?mark.Hughes asked suspiciously.

This doesn't seem like a good place to talk about things.Saleh doesn't seem to be out of touch at all.

at mark.After Hughes let this Mr. Saleh into the office and offered a cup of coffee himself, Saleh said straight to the point, I know many people are confused about why we chose Manchester City, in fact, what I want to say is Mr. Fahim is also a fan. He hopes that through football, Abu Dhabi will become more globally famous like Dubai.

mark.Hughes automatically filtered the first half of the sentence, and he believed even more that the latter sentence seemed to be one of the reasons.

It's an honor for City and, of course, it's also an honor for me.mark.Hughes said.

According to our plan, Manchester City will build the world's largest youth training camp and the world's largest football tourism area.Saleh went on to say, this to Mark.Hughes feels that this is the owner's assistant, and this trip is to show himself the new owner's ambitions for the team.

All of these require a condition, that is, the results of the first team must be guaranteed.mark.Hughes nodded.In fact, what he wants to say the most in his heart now is that it is good to have plans and ambitions, but you have to spend money, you have to spend money to buy people 1,.Otherwise, everything is empty talk.Therefore, he was not interested in Saleh's description of the grand blueprint for the future.

Saleh seemed to know Mark.Hughes was thinking about something. With a polite smile, he went on to say that although there is still some time to go (to complete the acquisition of the club), Mr. Fahim hopes to send some gifts to the team in advance.

Do you mean?mark.Hughes was taken aback.

Mr. Fahim thinks that some major adjustments should be made to the team's lineup. He hopes that you, Mr. Hughes, can draw up a list and hand it over to him.Saleh nodded slightly.

mark.Hughes was stunned, he was shocked, and then he was happy after reacting. This sentence can be said to be what any head coach wants to hear the most. Of course, if possible, Mark.Hughes wanted a 'suffix' after this sentence.

However, immediately, the suffix came.

Mr. Fahim wants to improve the strength of the team, so he wants to know your request, Mr. Hughes, you just need to know that for Manchester City, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it will no longer be any problem. question.

Well, when Mr. Saleh said this, his expression was haughty, even a little hateful, but at this moment, Mark. [] How can Hughes care about whether the other party's attitude is friendly or not.

At this moment, he was like a person who was directly knocked out by a large piece of pie, and his mind was not fully awake, and he was in a trance.

The most intuitive advantage of currency is that it can be exchanged for things.

Mark at this time.Hughes has the most intuitive understanding of this. In his thoughts at this time, it is the same as when he was a child who always hoped to have a few pennies in his pocket to buy his favorite ice cream when he was a child. The new boss Mr. Fasim Maybe he likes to play football manager games. Now that Fahim is an adult, he has more money in his pocket for him to use and operate. In order to realize his dream, that is to play the most realistic version of football manager.So he exchanged a few cents in his concept for the ownership of Manchester City.Then this guy's stats are very high, and I want that guy's stats are also very high, and I want 1, too.Hey, this guy looks so pleasing to the eye, he looks like my cousin, give him popularity <Heaven is coming!

It's good to have money!

As for some media critics saying that these oil kings treat the team as a toy, Mark.Hughes snorted and ignored it at all. He is the head coach of the team. As long as the club is willing to invest and buy people to enrich the strength of the team, as long as the new owner does not intend to change coaches, as long as he can lead the team to gold The yuan road is advancing, so what do you do with so much? !

The head coach of Manchester City was very excited and immediately stated: Mr. Saleh.I have no doubt that Mr. Fahim wants the team to be stronger.It is good that Mr. Fahim is willing to help the team earlier than planned.Now that last season has just ended and the transfer market has just begun, so now is the best time to buy players.

That's right, that's exactly why Mr. Fahim decided to give fans an early gift.Saleh said.

Thanks.I will submit this list after careful consideration.mark.Hughes said.

ok!Saleh nodded and said, before submitting the list, Mr. Fahim asked me to ask you an additional question, what position does the team need most?

Hughes didn't need to think carefully about this question. Without thinking about it, he blurted out: Forward.

Yes, Manchester City's front line is terrible.

After Thaksin entered the home team last season.Brought a lot of newcomers to the team, but the quality is really not flattering...

mark.Although Hughes has just taken office at this time, he still knows this team very well. In his opinion, the worst part of the Manchester City team is the striker!

Neither Corradi, Bojinov or Vassell could satisfy him, and Elano is not the kind of player who is good at scoring goals. As for Cassetti, Mark 1,.Hughes ignored it even more, Sturridge was at Mark.Hughes' eyes are good, but he is still too young to be the leader for the time being.

The more you think about Manchester City's striker lineup, Mark.The more helpless Hughes became, there was almost no scorer who could do it.Let's look at the superpowers of the Premier League, which one doesn't have a master shooter?Manchester United has Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tevez, as well as the legendary Berbatov who may join.Liverpool have Torres, Arsenal have Adebayor and Theo Walcott and Van Persie.Chelsea has Drogba and Anelka, what does Man City have?Nothing!

In a word, in Mark.In Hughes' mentality before, maybe such a lineup is still possible, but now that he has a rich father, the mentality is naturally different, in Mark.In Hughes' eyes, these shooters on the team are not the kind of stars who can reassure him, um, maybe before Mark.Hughes didn't dare to want to have those first-class stars, but now, after listening to Mr. Salehsi, he couldn't calm down.

Hughes' performance in the coaching position is also remarkable, raising the Welsh national team ranked 105th in the world to 50th, and almost entered the European Cup in 04. In 04, he resigned as the head coach of the national team and became the head coach of the Blackburn team. His performance in the club team is also quite good.Stabilized the team's performance in the middle and upper reaches of the Premier League.

Now that he has become the head coach of Manchester City, this gentleman realizes that his opportunity has come!

Although Hughes can be called an excellent head coach, he cannot be called a rich head coach. In the last ten years of the Premier League, Ferguson, Wenger, and Mourinho deserved this title. Well, maybe add Benitez's name, after all 'Istanbul Night' is where the super legend is.

mark.The only thing Hughes is linked to the giants is his achievements in the player era and the title of Ferguson's successor dubbed by the media.Many people have had this title, and the English media often hype the topic of the so-called "Ferguson's successor". Now, if Hughes doesn't improve his performance quickly, he will soon become the unpopular among many Ferguson's successors 1 member.

But now, the generosity of the new boss seems to have made Hughes see the possibility of leading the Manchester City team to kill all directions, making great achievements, and becoming a member of many wealthy head coaches. How can he not be excited? !

mark.Hughes' request to increase manpower on the forward line was agreed by Saleh, who nodded: It won't take long, Mark.Mr. Hughes, you can have a world-class striker.

mark.When Hughes heard this, he was frightened. "A world-class striker", he was sure that he heard correctly. Mr. Saleh was talking about a world-class striker.He just wants a first-class shooter to join him, a world-class striker, Mark.Hughes really didn't dare to think about it.

Although he will be more excited that the new boss has money, he will not be so excited that he does not know the southeast and northwest. Manchester City is not the Chelsea of ​​the year, and it is really unattractive to most top players.Some things cannot be achieved with money alone.

Abramovich's money offensive was only one reason why Chelsea was able to attract players such as Crespo and Veron, who were still among the top players at the time.The most important reason is that after the foreshadowing of Hoddle, Gullit, Vialli and Ranieri, Chelsea was already considered a strong team in the Premier League at that time. The ranking in the league can often be squeezed into the top four, and the Champions League is also Regular visitors, even won the FA Cup and the European Cup Winners' Cup, basically considered a quasi-rich.Under such circumstances, with capital injection, they can immediately transform themselves.Those top stars, while being tempted by money, will not be so resistant to joining Chelsea. After all, this team already has a certain foundation, and with money as a support, it is not impossible to become a wealthy family, so , Crespo is here, Mutu is here, Veron is here, and Makelele is here too.Coupled with Chelsea's own Terry and Lampard, their rise followed the trend.Not a big surprise.

However, the current Manchester City is different. Although in the city of Manchester, Manchester City fans account for the vast majority, and their history is even longer than Manchester United, but the results are really terrible.The most glorious achievements are only four FA Cup titles and a Cup Winners' Cup, and it is too long from now.It is really not attractive to the current players 1,.More people just regard them as a traditional mid-range team in the Premier League.Six seasons ago, they had just climbed back from the second-tier league to the top league in England. How attractive can such a team be?How many world-class players will condescend to come to this team that may not even play in the UEFA Cup next season because of such a small amount of money?

So, Mark.Hughes heard that Saleh said that he wanted to buy a world-class striker. He really wanted to ask, who did Saleh refer to as a world-class striker?

When Abramovich waved his checkbook to buy people, he attracted Sir Alex Ferguson's displeasure and contempt. The Manchester United coach said: Even if you can buy 11 stars, it doesn't mean you can buy them. They can form a team.In addition, Sir Alex also mentioned the history of the team: Manchester United did not get everything overnight. For any team, history is very important, and we have a proud history.In fact, to put it bluntly, the so-called history of a wealthy family is the foundation of a team. No matter how rich a team is, if you don't have the background of a wealthy family, it will be difficult to become a real giant.

Well, Chelsea was so despised at the beginning, it is conceivable that Manchester City is not very popular with many coaches and top players.

World class striker?mark.Hughes asked.

Well, yes, a world-class striker!I think, maybe that player should be the most powerful shooter now, Mr. Hughes, I can reveal one thing, that person was hand-picked by Mr. Fahim. Besides, if possible, we want to bring Kaka.Saleh said.

Kaka?mark.Hughes was completely stunned this time. Compared with the so-called world-class striker whose name is temporarily unknown, the name Kaka brought a greater impact.

Oh, this, the matter of Kaka will take time, but Mr. Fahim admires Kaka very much. Sooner or later Kaka will be a Manchester City player. Now, let us look forward to the joining of that world-class shooter.Saleh said.

Who is this guy?mark.Hughes asked.

That's right, you are the head coach and you have the right to know. Mr. Fasim said that he will not interfere with your formation. This time, Mr. Fassim knows that this player will definitely satisfy you, so I didn't discuss it with you, I hope you don't mind 1,.Saleh said.

mark.Hughes is so entangled, do all Arabs talk so slowly?

Well, that person is Zhang Yang.Well, I still have something to do, so I'm going first, and I wish you good luck, Mr. Hughes.Wait for our good news.After finishing speaking, Saleh turned around and left. He is really busy now. Although there is almost no problem with the acquisition of Manchester City by the Abu Dhabi consortium, there are still some details that need to be discussed with the seller Thaksin, and this is why Abu Dhabi The Zabi consortium has not yet publicly issued an announcement announcing the reasons for the success of the acquisition of Manchester City.

Saleh flitted away, leaving behind a stunned Mark.Hughes.

I heard it right, Saleh actually said that he wanted to buy Zhang Yang?The head coach of Manchester City has a strange expression. Facing such news, he really can't calm down. This is not excitement, but unbelievability, as if he saw a ghost in broad daylight!

Long time, Mark.Hughes came back to his senses, he looked at the left Arab man and shook his head.At this time, he felt that he could more or less understand the new boss's mind.

Obviously, the new boss, Mr. Fahim, doesn't know much about football. The new boss has many, many, countless pounds. He thinks he can buy everything with money...including the world's top stars.

For what Mr. Saleh said buy the publicity, Mark.Hughes really didn't know what to say. Well, he thought about it for himself and estimated that the possibility of Zhang Yang coming to Manchester City was less than [-]%. Well, this is still Mark.In his heart, Hughes made an unrefusable offer to C Milan on behalf of Manchester City.

mark.Hughes really couldn't calm down now.Worrying about gains and losses.

Today is the [-]th year, and Zhutou is here to wish everyone a happy new year.I wish you all good health and good luck in the new year.

Well, Gong Xi Fa Cai, Fa Cai.
