The Greatest Performer on the Football Field

The first thing that flashed on the screen was Sun Wu's volley against Tottenham. He volleyed over the defender with his left foot, then turned around, padded his thigh, and volleyed sideways. This was also the best goal in the Premier League last season.

Then the screen flashed over last season's top scorer Aguero's light shot, Chelsea's ace Hazard's long-distance run, Liverpool Coutinho's cloud-piercing arrow...

The screen turned and Lineker and Alan Hansen appeared in the live broadcast room. This was a BBC commentary program on the signings of major Premier League clubs in the new season.

Everyone knows that starting from this season, the Premier League broadcast revenue has increased significantly, and each team has more sufficient transfer funds. Lineker winked, It's pitiful for Hull City, Cardiff City and Burnley, they are so unlucky.

But it's surprising, everyone is very sensible so far. Alan Hansen laughed: Even Liverpool and Manchester United are still making money!

Lineker laughed, Manchester United sent away Lukaku, Schneiderlin and Thomas Muller. Although they acquired as many as five or six new players, their worth is not high. The highest one is Bernardo. Silva is £25m.

And Liverpool sent Di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain for £58 million, and then used the money to acquire former Manchester City center backs Nastasic and Robertson.

Of course, the transfer window has not closed yet, and Klopp and Best may sign new players at any time. Alan Hansen added: Although Best claimed that the summer signings have ended, the Times Reports Woodward and Mendes dined together in Madrid.

From the current point of view, Manchester City's signings are the largest. In addition to the previous De Brau, Guardiola triggered the release clause and spent 56 million euros to bring Sane to the Elihad Stadium. Baines can Manchester City's attack and defense on the left have been greatly enhanced, and it is said that Manchester City is still trying to compete with Bayern Munich for RB Leipzig's midfielder Kimmich.

Of course, Manchester City has also carried out a purge. Nasri, Zabaleta, Kolarov and Jovetic have all been sent away, and Tevez may also leave the team.

It's great to have money. Alan Hansen sighed. De Bruyne and Sane alone have a combined income of over 100 million...

Even though the broadcast revenue has increased significantly, Manchester City is still generous in investment. Lineker continued: The signings of Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea can only be said to be quite satisfactory, and so far they have not exceeded 3,000. Thousands of pounds worth of signings, but one worth mentioning is Best.”

Yes, yes, although Pochettino only left Manchester United this summer, Best was involved in the team's transfer signings as far back as two years ago.

Alan Hansen nodded in agreement, At present, apart from Lingard, Rashford, Michael Keane and Fletcher who came from the youth training, most of the players in the Manchester United first team have been transferred to Sun Wu or More or less matters.

For example, two years ago he brought Griezmann, Thomas Muller, Motta and Coleman, and the next year he brought Alderweireld, Rojo, Mane, and loaned them out. Harry Kane and Kante, and this summer he brought in a large number of players such as Fabinho.”

Best's recruitment strategy has two characteristics. One is that the price is not high, and the other is that the players are often very young... Alan Hansen turned around and said: Gary, the second point is very interesting.

Best himself is not very old, and these two points are related. Lineker chuckled, But these two characteristics are true. The players Best introduced are not very old. Pavard is 19, Fabinho is 22, Bernardo Silva is 21, Van Dijk is 24 and Lucas is only 18.

The most valuable player is Bernardo Silva, who is worth 25 million pounds, followed by Lucas Hernandez, who asked Manchester United to pay a release fee of 18 million euros... It is unimaginable that Best's signing may become a The outside world accuses him of being an important weapon.

In the office at Carrington Base, Sun Wu, Mike Phelan, Rolf and others were all watching this program.

According to the current data, the average age of the Manchester United team is 23.8 years old, which is the lowest in the Premier League. Mike Phelan lowered his head and looked at the data. Among them, the left back is the least experienced, with 19-year-old Luke Shaw and 18-year-old Luke Shaw. Lucas Hernandez.

Both Baines and Felipe are unwilling to come... Sun Wu complained a few times, But youth also has its advantages. The key is that in healthy competition, one of them is likely to be able to make Manchester United the next ten years. No worries on the left side.”

You just have to be tough... Rolf glanced at Sun Wu, picked up the information and changed the topic, Do you still remember the Korean you mentioned when you first arrived at Schalke 04?

Son Heung-min? Sun Wu nodded, Currently Manchester United has no shortage of wingers. Shaqiri is very practical, Mane is even better, and there are different types of Bernardo Silva, Milner, Lingard, and Rashford. Virtue can also come in handy.”

Liverpool and Tottenham are competing, and it is estimated that the price may exceed 30 million pounds. Rolf said slowly: In addition, Arsenal is interested in Aubameyang, and Monchengladbach's Swiss midfielder Xhaka .”

Sun Wu didn't say anything, but he remembered that these two guys really went to Arsenal. It seemed that Wenger was forced to have no choice now.

The Bundesliga has really produced many outstanding young players in recent years. Mike Phelan admired.

Starting from Sun Wu, a large number of Bundesliga players such as Thomas Muller, Gotze, Cavani, Piszczek, Firmino, Shinji Kagawa, and Matip have defected to the Premier League. Although it may not be cheap, in general It can be said to be of high quality.

This summer, Premier League clubs have a large amount of funds, so they naturally extend their reach even further. This has caused strong dissatisfaction among Bundesliga clubs. Sane, De Bruyne and Kimmich currently introduced by Guardiola are all from the Bundesliga.

After going through all the sensitive information in the transfer market, Rolf said while packing up the information: Best, you didn't give Woodward a list, but he gave you one.

Sun Wu, who was also packing his things, stopped and asked, Who is there?

Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa, last season's Serie A golden boot Icardi, silver boot Higuain, and the aforementioned Aubameyang.

I don't want anyone from Serie A. Diego Costa...will Simeone sell it to us? Sun Wu shook his head. He and Simeone had already broken up because of Lucas.

Aubameyang is good and suits Manchester United's tactical system very well. Rolf suggested.

Well, if Woodward can buy it, that's great.

By the way, there's one more. Mike Phelan suddenly interjected: Porto's Colombian center Jackson Martinez, who won the Portuguese Super League Golden Boot for three consecutive years, was the top scorer in the Europa League last season, even though he is older. Dian is already 28 years old, but he is in good shape, and his release clause is only 32 million euros, which is relatively cheap.

Sun Wu twitched the corner of his mouth. This was a big hole, which once embarrassed Simeone...
