Football irons are burning

Chapter 319 Winter Break Transfer

At the end of December, the schedule is still intensive.

This is really difficult enough for the players. Other leagues have already started the winter break, but the Premier League does not have a winter break.

On December 12, Manchester United played against Middlesbrough at home. As a result, Manchester United played half of the main force, defeated their opponents 26:3, and continued to lead the standings.

Two days later, Manchester United ushered in the challenge of Nottingham Forest at home.

Last time, because of Li Tie's reasons, the team lost an away game, and this is the only loss this season.

This time, no matter what, the team will take revenge.

Before the game, Gong Li and Gong Yue also visited Li Tie's house. The children had fun, but the three adults were a little embarrassed.

Gong Yue's body also recovered at least 80.00%, and his body became fatter.

And Li Jiao is also round, she looks too much like Gong Yue.

They are about the same age, Gong is older.

The two young ones followed behind them, and their walk was still a little unsteady. The four children made Li Tie feel as if he had eaten honey.

Life is like this, what more can a husband ask for?

But during the game, Li Tie didn't show any mercy.

Not long after the opening, he turned around at the front of the penalty area and sent a through pass. Van Nistelrooy volleyed and scored, 1:0!

In the 14th minute, Conte brought Li Tie down and gave Manchester United a free kick in a good position.

Li Tie personally operated the knife, kicked a curved ball to attack the goal, and once again broke through Friedel's ten fingers.

Before the end of halftime, Li Tie's rubbed shot, the ball passed Friedel's fingertips and hit the side net, 3;0!
Only now did the Nottingham Forest players know how powerful Li Tie was.

In the first round of the confrontation between the two sides, if Li Tie did not end, would they still win?

In the second half, Nottingham Forest also launched a series of counterattacks, but Larson was defended by Glenn Johnson. This kid was also selected for the England national team recently. However, whether in Manchester United or the national team, he is Gary Neville's substitute.

In this game, Gary Neville also had muscle spasms and was forced to rest for two weeks.

However, Glen Johnson still filled the vacancy, and Manchester United's defense was not affected.

In the 66th minute, Glenn Johnson also set up an assist from the side. His cross helped Giggs volley and break the goal, locking the score at 4-0.

The final result of the game was 4:0. Manchester United beat Nottingham Forest, won the 19th league victory, and continued to charge towards the final championship.

The best news of this round is that Chelsea finally lost. They lost to Leeds United in the away game and were opened up by Manchester United by 9 points.

This can be regarded as a good end for 2002.

2002 has passed, and 2003 has come.

In the past year, Li Tie has experienced too many things, winning the World Cup, winning the Champions League, transferring, leading Manchester United to consecutive victories, children
Entering the new year, with a new year and a new atmosphere, Li Tie has reason to believe that he will have a better life.

On the first day of the new year, Manchester United attracted the third league game within seven days, the devil's schedule, and it really lived up to its reputation.

Many teams have fallen into the devil's schedule, but Manchester United has no sense of decadence this year.

The Black Cats, Sunderland, are also deep in the relegation zone, and this is literally a delivery.

The result of the game was 3:0, and Manchester United continued to win, while waiting for their opponents to make mistakes.

The derby between Arsenal and Chelsea is a good opportunity for Manchester United to expand their lead. In the last round, Arsenal was tied by Liverpool and fell behind Manchester United by as much as 17 points.

But this time, they helped Manchester United a big favor. After defeating Chelsea 3:2, Manchester United's lead expanded to 12 points.

The devil's schedule dragged down the Chelsea team.

During the game, Chelsea striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic also received a red card for elbowing Vieira and will be suspended.

Vieira's chattering provocations successfully angered Ibrahimovic, and the scene was also very exciting at the time.

However, Vieira obviously succeeded. After the absence of Ibrahimovic, Chelsea subsequently collapsed, and Henry performed a hat-trick to complete the reversal.

The suspense of the league championship is gradually disappearing.

After this game, the European Cup qualifiers were held again, and the team got another period of rest. However, it is really difficult for the international players in the Manchester United team to rest.

Stam, Ruud van Nistelrooy, De Jong and Van der Sar went to the Dutch national team, Giggs returned to Wales, Fletcher was called by the Scottish team, Solskjaer was the main striker of the Norwegian team, and Gary Neville, Scholes and Glenn Johnson were regular visitors to the England national team.

All of a sudden, the team shrank in half.

After entering the winter break transfer period, the trading market has also become lively.

Manchester City made a big move. They sold Owen to Newcastle United for 1000 million pounds, and added money to buy Nottingham Forest striker Larson.

Anyway, this deal is a lot of loss. I bought Owen at the beginning, but spent 4500 million pounds. As a result, Irving has only scored 11 goals in Manchester City for such a long time, which is really unsatisfactory.

Larson has scored 17 goals in the current scorer list, ranking behind Li Tie and Henry. This is of course a striker with high scoring efficiency and is worth buying.

And Larson's weekly salary has also risen to 20 pounds, so the player himself is willing to go.

Of course, Nottingham Forest would also be sold. Gong Li's purpose in acquiring Nottingham Forest was not to be a savior, but to make money.

Such a good deal, why didn't she sell it?

What's more, Li Tie's agency can recommend good players for her at any time, and Li Tie himself will do the same. Gong Li is somewhat confident.

Together with Crouch who left before, Nottingham Forest's main striker combination disintegrated.

Manchester City bought Jardel from Porto again for a transfer fee of 2200 million pounds. In the past few seasons, Jardl has been an important scorer in Europe, second only to Li Tie's scoring efficiency.

Therefore, Manchester City was taken advantage of.

At the same time, they sold Di Natale to Udinese in Serie A. Although Di Natale can still score goals, he is still far from the top scorer, or in other words, his scoring efficiency in the Premier League is not high.

In this way, Manchester City has formed two sets of striker reserves.

Chelsea also bought Portuguese player Pauletta, who also scored a lot in Inter Milan. Mourinho likes his fellow countryman very much.

And Mutu, who was affected by taking illegal drugs, was hidden by Chelsea. This guy is still on the old road.

It seems that some things are predestined.

And Robbie Keane also suffered a serious decline and was sold to Tottenham by Chelsea for 1000 million pounds.

These two people are typical Hu Zhongyong, they were full of vigor when they were young, but after they became famous, they didn't know where to go, where to go, where to go, and where to go.

Liverpool sold Harman to Kaiserslautern. The transfer fee turned out to be a mere £500 million, and Kaiserslautern made a profit.

As a result of the trouble, Harman became a victim, and Diouf was retained by Liverpool because of his youth and good strength.

However, Liverpool used the money to recruit Salihovic. This is also a good guy, young and energetic, with good skills and worthy of training.

After Nottingham Forest sent away Crouch and Larsson, they brought in Zikic, loaned Dortmund teenager Odongko (with the right to purchase first), and purchased core player Xu Liang from the Northeast Boys Club. The team's strength seems to have dropped a bit.

But this is just an appearance. Even though none of these people have played in the Premier League, they are definitely not weak in terms of strength.

Zikic is tall and shoots, he can be called a shooting machine, Odongko is fast, Xu Liang has excellent skills, and free kicks are particularly powerful.

As long as they play well, these three should be able to bring Nottingham Forest a good attacking effect.

And Manchester United bought Benfica winger Simao for 2000 million pounds. This deal seems to be Cantona's fancy.

Simao's speed is indeed fast enough, and his skills are also good. Although his performance in La Liga was not satisfactory before, he still played well after returning to Benfica.

Therefore, Manchester United is also willing to spend money to bring him to play in the Premier League.

For this reason, the club also held a welcome meeting for Simao. At the meeting, Simao was also high-spirited, saying that he would contribute his strength to Manchester United and be a good helper for Li Tie.

Subsequently, the club introduced French players Roten and Saha. Obviously, this is what Cantona meant.

The strength of these two people is not bad, and they can effectively make up for the lack of offensive personnel.

Especially Roten, known as the French Beckham, his midfield organization ability is also quite good.

Manchester United moved very quickly, and they introduced Southampton full-back Bridge and Belgian teenager Vermaelen to enhance the strength of the defense.

Bridge's transfer fee exceeded 1000 million pounds, but Li Tie wanted to remind this kid to keep his girlfriend under control and not make any trouble at Manchester United.

However, after thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is a bit difficult to speak, so forget it.

Besides, it would be good for Bridge if he could recognize a woman through this kind of thing.

The introduction of five players at once cost more than 5000 million pounds. Manchester United boss Edwards is quite generous this winter.

In fact, people in the know know that after Li Tie transferred to Manchester United, the market value of Manchester United has increased significantly. They have already made a lot of money through the sale of jerseys and the temporary residence they obtained, and the use of the portrait rights authorized by Li Tie.

What is this transfer fee?

Of course, the joining of these few people has also allowed Manchester United's strength to continue to improve steadily.
