Chapter 968 Giving Up and Transferring

Goodison Park Stadium.

The home fans intermittently sent applause and boos, the former was given to the Everton players who performed well, and the latter was given to Sun Wu standing on the sidelines.

In the Premier League season, Everton has always been a tough bone. Moyes before and Martinez now are the best among the younger generation of coaches.

Although Baines and Coleman were successively poached by the Manchester duo, Everton is still full of fighting spirit. This taffy is very hard.

The most surprising thing is that Cleverley, the midfielder who left Manchester United because of lack of playing time, played very well in this game. He and Barry organized the midfield organization in an orderly manner through steady passing, allowing the frontcourt Miralas, Kone, and Deulofeu kept getting chances to face the goal.

"Fabinho is still easy to be swayed." Mike Phelan whispered: "The key is Kanter's absence..."

"If Kanter is there, Fabinho can play very well." Sun Wu agrees with this point of view, "You can try it in the next training, and the two will form a double midfielder."

"Double backs?" Rolf asked suspiciously, "4231?"

"Not necessarily, 343 is also fine."

"Oh, that would be surprising."

To be honest, facing a group of red kids, Everton players have enough confidence in mentality, skills and tactics, and personal abilities.

The deadlock was broken in the 61st minute of the second half. Deulofeu cut in from the left and took a long shot. The ball fell to the right side of the penalty area after two refractions. Miralas volleyed and broke through Romero's ten fingers immediately. .

Seeing that the ball was lost, Sun Wu's heart finally returned to his stomach, and he went straight back to the bench without making any adjustments.

Mike Phelan and Rolf also sat back, also silent.

With such a lineup, everyone knows that Sun Wu is giving up the League Cup. There is nothing wrong with it. Although there are only three games left in the League Cup including this one, the schedule in January is too dense, and at the end of February 1 The timing of the final at the beginning of the month was also very ingenious, it happened to be the week of the weekly match between the two weekly double matches.

In other words, if they reach the final, Manchester United is likely to continue with double matches a week until March with little chance to rest.

Anyway, the gold content of the League Cup is too low, Sun Wu secretly complained in his heart, let Liverpool and Manchester City grab it!
Although Rashford missed a set-piece and scored for Manchester United, Deulofeu made a long-range shot and Clavelli scored directly from a free kick. Everton defeated Manchester United's second team 3-1 at home.

Returning to Manchester with a group of little ghosts, Sun Wu faced the reporter's questions without changing his face or heartbeat.

"Abandoning the League Cup strategically?"

"how can that be possible!"

"I'm short of the Premier League title and the Carabao Cup, I swear I want it so badly."

"Unfortunately Everton played really well, Cleverley made me regret... no no no, I mean... Pochettino regrets... no no no, uh... get out of the way, I need to get on the bus Already!"

All the reporters expressed their admiration for Sun Wu's thick skin. There are so many famous coaches in the history of the Premier League. In terms of thick skin, only Ferguson back then may be able to compare with him. He really deserves to be the successor of Manchester United.

But the whole of the UK knows that Sun Wu gave up the League Cup, and even De Gea did not play, and all the main players returned to Manchester in advance to recuperate.

"Winning the Champions League is not necessarily a good thing." Sun Wu said to San Dezi in this way: "The Club World Cup has delayed two games, and the make-up match will make the schedule for the second half of the season very dense."

The assistant coaches on the side shook their heads to express their disapproval. If Enrique heard this, he must beat you!

"If we continue our trip to the League Cup, there will be another game this month, and another game at the end of February, which may delay the league and make up matches later... It's too difficult." Sun Wu coughed twice and explained: "And The 2-game winning streak in the league puts a lot of pressure on the team, and losing a game in the League Cup is also a good thing."

I was uneasy in June and July of last year. In August and September last year, I supported Sun Wu because of the sharp rise in stocks. Later, Falcao, who was bought by myself, was in good condition. He won 17 consecutive league victories, easily qualified for the Champions League, won the Club World Cup, and the Manchester Derby. After defeating the mortal enemy, the relationship between San Dezi and Sun Wu has now entered the honeymoon period.

"It's all within your rights." San Dezi nodded repeatedly, "I didn't come here today because of this matter..."

"Atletico Madrid let go?" Sun Wu's voice became sharp.

"No." San Dezi gave a disappointing answer, and then said with a smile: "Barcelona triggered Turan's termination clause, 5000 million euros. It is said that Turan paid 600 million euros himself."

Tsk tsk, you, a Turk, don't learn what is good, you have to learn from Cesc Fabregas, Sun Wu is gloating, if I remember correctly, Turan's life in Barcelona is worse than that of Fabregas.

"If there is no accident, Pedro will transfer to Chelsea in the next few days, and Salah will transfer to Manchester United. Both transactions will be concluded." San Dezi patted the table lightly, "The final offer from Chelsea is 2600 million pounds."

"Not expensive." Sun Wu said firmly.

Of course not expensive. Sun Wu witnessed Salah’s crazy season before crossing. In fact, he didn’t know that Salah has always maintained a high level after that. He raised the big ear cup.

Mike Phelan nodded, "In terms of ability, Salah is worth the price."

"Although Chelsea has never been able to play games, there is no doubt about the ability of the Egyptian winger." Rolf also agreed, "And now Manchester United is very short of wingers. It will take at least more than a month for Mane to come back, and the season in January is too intensive. Salah can provide instant combat power immediately."

Sun Wu was happy after leaving the office, but he was greatly surprised by the transfer information that followed.

On January 1, Manchester City announced through their official website that they had acquired Palmeiras' Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus for 7 million euros.

Sun Wu grinned and recalled, it seems that Jesus only transferred to Manchester City this summer, and he only officially played the game early next year.

But the news revealed that Manchester City has been observing Jesus for a year. The Brazilian striker only completed his career debut in May last year. He immediately became the main striker in the second half of last year and scored 5 goals in half a year. He also sent 11 assists and is the most promising young striker in Brazil.

Tsk tsk, it seems that Guardiola really fell out with Aguero. Sun Wu guessed this way with a dark mind, completely ignoring the fact that the current Manchester City striker is only Aguero who can come in handy.

On January 1th, Chelsea announced that Barcelona striker Pedro joined with a value of 8 million euros.

On January 1th, Manchester United ushered in the first opponent of the FA Cup this season, Sheffield United.

Manchester United, sitting at home, took their time. Sun Wu formed a mixed lineup of main substitutes. Lingard scored twice in the first half, and Bernardo Silva made a contribution with a pass.

In the second half, Sun Wu, Bernardo Silva and Griezmann went off to rest one after another, but the starter Harry Kane still failed to break the spell and always missed the goal. Falcao on the bench laughed leaning forward and backward.

4-0, Manchester United easily eliminated Sheffield United to advance to the fourth round of the FA Cup.

On January 1, Manchester United held a press conference to announce the joining of Salah. The transfer fee for the Egyptian winger was 11 million pounds, but San Dezi finally failed to lower the price.

At the press conference, Sun Wu claimed that Salah can become the top three wingers in the world. This evaluation made countless people excited.

On January 1, after only one joint practice, Sun Wu told Salah that you will start the game.
