Chapter 398
Roger Moses sat in the office of the director of sports at the BBC headquarters, looking down at his mobile phone.

Knock Knock~

"Come in!" Roger Moses yelled when he heard the knock on the door.

Entering was Barbara Slater, director of programming for the sports department.

"We've just received news that Ferguson is bombarding Arsenal in Manchester," Barbara Slater said as soon as she entered the door.

"Bombard Arsenal? Why?" Roger Moses put down his phone with a strange expression on his face.

Barbara Slater smiled, "I heard that Arsenal used 250 million pounds to forcibly poach the two talented rookies of Manchester United, Paul Pogba."

"The Frenchman?" Roger Moses was a little surprised.

"Yes, didn't Ferguson send them to the youth team before? This time the management agreed to Arsenal's transfer deal of 250 million pounds, which is said to have bypassed Ferguson, but who knows?"

After hearing this, Roger Moses patted his desk excitedly, and laughed gloatingly, "Wow, that old Scottish man must be mad now, and what right does he have to bombard others? Didn't he use the same method to recruit Paul Pogba from Le Havre two years ago?"

Barbara Slater also nodded with a smile, "You should know, he has always been like this."

To use an old Chinese saying, only state officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps.

The relationship between the BBC, Ferguson and Manchester United has always been very bad. This is because the BBC filmed a documentary, exposing Ferguson’s third son as an agent, and enriched himself in some of Manchester United’s transfer operations. It aroused the indignation of Manchester United fans and was banned by Ferguson.

Since then, the BBC has never been able to get all the first-hand information related to Manchester United. Even on some official occasions, Ferguson will only arrange for the assistant coach to go abroad, just to avoid BBC TV.

"Good guy, you messed with Ferguson as soon as you recovered. Arsenal seems to be determined to make a big deal!" Roger Moses was a little excited thinking about it.

In recent years, English football has become more and more lively, especially with the influx of international capital into English football, it has made them who work in the news media even more addicted.

At the very least, don't worry about themes and topics that don't promote sales.

"Since Ferguson is unhappy, we don't mind making him angrier!"

Roger Moses stood up with a chuckle, "Tonight's news, let's extend the reporting time of this transfer. By the way, let me introduce the ins and outs of Paul Pogba's transfer last year and this year, and introduce the current situation of Arsenal."

After a pause, he glanced at this right-hand man who has been in the media for 30 to [-] years, "You should know how to do it, right?"

"Understood!" Barbara Slater agreed with a smile.

Since it's not the same as Ferguson, the enemy's enemy is a comrade in arms, and the guns must be the same!
BBC doesn't mind doing anything that makes Ferguson unhappy.

"We've been kept in the dark and I'm sure there's been an agreement between them. It's very disappointing. In my opinion, they haven't shown the slightest bit of respect for Manchester United!"

"This is a betrayal of Manchester United!"

After Manchester United officially announced that Paul Pogba had switched to Arsenal at a price of 250 million pounds, Ferguson was very angry at the possible private contact between Arsenal and the former Manchester United player, and said he would not rule out appealing.

"This is not a single incident. I want to say that it has had a very bad impact on our youth training system and made us panic inside. Their defection not only caused us to lose two very valuable players, but also caused an extremely bad impact."

Arsenal immediately held a press conference. The team CEO Gazidis said very seriously at the Emirates Stadium that Ferguson's accusations were all unreasonable speculations without any basis.

"I don't think Ferguson has any reason to accuse others, because he has been doing the things he said. Do I need to give everyone examples?"

"Arsenal did not sign any private agreement before signing Paul Pogba and even in the terms of our contract, we did not give players any unrealistic promises."

"We contacted Manchester United, showed interest in two of their players who had put in a written transfer request because they were sent down to the youth team, and offered the right price, and they agreed, and the whole thing was as simple as that."

"I don't think we have any links to violations."

Paul Pogba also confirmed this in an interview with a reporter from the Southern Echo.

"Arsenal didn't promise me a place in the first team. They just told me that here, I can play a lot of games, play with Lee and Ozil, and some other top players, play together and improve together."

"It made me want to join Arsenal, not just for the money."

As for what Ferguson said, Pogba defected this time and did not respect Manchester United enough, and Pogba also responded.

"When I came to Manchester from Le Havre two years ago, he promised me to play more games, but in the absence of players in the first team, he didn't trust me at all, and never considered giving me a chance. When I asked him to make more contributions to the team, he gave me the answer, go back to the youth team!"

"I can't understand why he thinks that I don't respect Manchester United enough, because I came from Le Havre on a free transfer, but now I have made a seven-figure transfer fee for Manchester United? Or, he thinks that I have not bowed to him. This violated his authority, which seems insufficient."

"But I want to say, if I was given another chance to choose, I would still tell him, no!"

Regarding Arsenal's upcoming introduction of Paul Pogba from Manchester United, after Ferguson's bombardment and Arsenal's strong counterattack, it immediately became a grand event in the entire English football world, and even attracted the attention of European football.

For the first time, Pogba and the 19-year-old talented star appeared on the pages of major European media.

Raiola also stood up and accepted an interview with the Italian media, accusing Ferguson of being too domineering and lacking respect for the players.

For a while, on the Internet and in the media, the transfer between Manchester United, Ferguson, and Arsenal Wenger quickly aroused huge discussions and controversies. Most of the fans were divided into two factions, arguing non-stop on the Internet and newspapers.

Some people think that Arsenal must have a problem. They must have contacted the players privately and encouraged them, causing Manchester United to fall into a passive position.

But some people quickly countered that it was a conspiracy theory without any evidence at all.

And Manchester United itself is not clean enough. Back then, Pique was poached from Barcelona, ​​and Pogba was poached from Le Havre later. I don’t know how many times this happened.

The bbc TV station also carried out a key report on the sports news, and subtly led the audience to believe that this was a scene of thieves shouting and catching thieves, which Ferguson often did.

This is the BBC, and its influence in the UK is equivalent to China's CCTV.

Therefore, when the bbc shouted, the whole of the UK was blown up, and the major newspapers chose their positions one after another, and opened fire as much as they wanted.

The Sun newspaper is a hardcore Red Devils party, but the local Manchester City Evening News in Manchester firmly supports Arsenal and attacks Manchester United.

The Times, Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph, Independent, Mirror and other media also have their own positions.

This caused the entire UK to quarrel because of this transfer worth only 250 million pounds.

But at this time, Arsenal Li Yuxin has no time to think so much, signing Pogba is great news, but now Arsenal need to think about the next game
