The failure to win Xavi Alonso was undoubtedly a pretty big blow for the ambitious Benitez. www.biquge.info know that the former Real Sociedad midfielder is the most suitable candidate to be at the heart of Liverpool's organisation in the Spanish coach's vision. And now, Alonso has been cut off by Tottenham in the middle of the game, how does this not frustrate Benitez?

Although I was very depressed, I was done. Benitez could only watch as Tottenham came from behind, stealing his favourite players and focusing on finding a replacement for Xavi Alonso.

"In other words, Tottenham don't already have Basturk and Carrick in the midfield position, why are they still interested in Xavi Alonso?"

This is also the point that puzzles Benitez the most. Due to his interest in Xavi Alonso during his time in charge of Valencia, Benitez can't guarantee that Tottenham Hotspur will not be included in the list of potential buyers of Alonso, although he cannot guarantee that all of them will be known. If Tottenham had sent someone to inspect Alonso before, then Benitez, who was still in Spain at the time, would definitely have gotten the relevant news, and he would not have carelessly lost Jingzhou and was intercepted by Tottenham in an almost defenseless situation!

There have been no problems with Benitez's news network, and Tottenham have indeed not sent anyone to Spain to check on Alonso before this. But the problem is that with the existence of a time-traveler like George, who has memories of his past life, it doesn't actually make much sense for Tottenham to examine Alonso in advance - since he knows that Alonso can adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League game and knows the strength of the Spaniards, then naturally there is no need to examine Alonso again, so as not to startle the snake and make other teams interested in Alonso wary.

The existence of George's variable and his approach made Benitez mistakenly believe that no one would compete with him for Alonso at this time, and as a result, he made such an ending that the Spanish coach regretted a lot.

"Could it be that Tottenham are planning to sell Basturke or Carrick in the summer, so they will suddenly bring in Alonso to prepare for the possible departure of the two in advance?"

After pondering for a long time, Benitez finally found a reason for Tottenham's unusual move. And after coming to this conclusion, Benitez immediately came up with an idea - since you have robbed me of Alonso, then I will poach Carrick or Basturk, and I can still strengthen Liverpool!

With that in mind, Benitez made a tentative offer to Carrick and Basturk to test his suspicion that if Tottenham's purpose in bringing in Alonso was really to prepare for the departure of Carrick or Basturk, then he could take the opportunity to poach one of them from Tottenham as Alonso's replacement.

In Benitez's view, Carrick and Basturk's big-picture vision and command skills are not as good as those of Xavi Alonso, but they are also top-notch. Therefore, replacing Alonso's vacancy with these two is not a loss in the eyes of Benitez.

However, the news from London that followed sent a chill down Benitez's heart – Tottenham regretted that they had no intention of selling Carrick or Basturk to Liverpool. Moreover, Carrick has accepted the contract offered by Manchester United, and the deal can be completed when the summer transfer window opens!

With Carrick already confirmed, Tottenham Hotspur will not let Basturke go again. Otherwise, Tottenham will have to find another reliable rotation player for Alonso, which is clearly an undesirable outcome for Tottenham.

In addition, in the face of Benitez's olive branch, Basturk had no intention of moving. The Turk is not stupid, he knows that with his physical condition, he is not suitable to play in a fierce league like the Premier League, and being a rotation player is the most suitable option for him.

Since Tottenham's salary is no worse than that of those Premier League teams, and there are games to play, which will not cause too much load on the body, and the team's results and development prospects are quite good, then why accept Liverpool's invitation? With this point of view, Basturk did not hesitate to reject Liverpool's offer.

After learning that Tottenham and Manchester United had completed Carrick's transfer deal without saying a word, and that Basturk had also rejected his offer, Benitez's heart at this time could be said to be full of resentment. In his opinion, if Tottenham and Manchester United had not secretly operated Carrick's transfer deal, but had made the news public, then Liverpool would still have a good chance of snatching Carrick from Manchester United.

To be honest, Benitez did overestimate Liverpool's appeal to players this time. For Xavi Alonso, Liverpool, who can play in next season's UEFA Cup, have shown that he can stand on a higher stage but cannot use his talents in European competition because of the team he plays, and the Spanish midfielder has considerable appeal. However, even so, when Tottenham Hotspur, who have a Champions League spot, stepped in on the transfer, Xavi Alonso did not hesitate to abandon Liverpool and opt instead to accept George's offer of contract.

Not to mention Carrick. The homegrown midfielder is still not as well-known as the likes of Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard, but he has also won back-to-back League Cups and FA Cups with Tottenham this season, and has even finished runners-up in the league. Therefore, even if Carrick wants to transfer, he will give priority to Manchester United, which is more famous and has Champions League games to play, over Liverpool, who have not won a league title for more than a decade.

Although Benitez is quite unwilling to accept the fact that his attempts to bring in Xavi Alonso and Carrick have failed, he is unlikely to go to the FA or UEFA to complain that Tottenham and Manchester United have cut off the players he wants to bring in. If Benitez does do this, then he and Liverpool will become the laughing stock of European football.

You know, transfer transactions are based on their own abilities. If you want to get the player you want, you have to put your mind on this deal. And what about Benitez, the Spanish coach knew that Xavi Alonso was the key figure he used to transform Liverpool, but under the insistence of Owen's departure and the temptation of Robbie Keane, he thought that no one would look at Alonso, who had performed mediocre this season, and hastily focused on the transfer of Robbie Keane!

As a result of Benitez's actions, Alonso was cut off by Tottenham, and his carefully formulated plan for building a team around Alonso was completely disrupted!
