"A joke. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Ten million pounds, what's West Ham going to do?"

"One agent manipulating two clubs?"

"Lambert Ribery?"

"Insider!"

Originally, this summer, everyone praised the transfer of West Ham United. In addition to the £1.4 million acquisition of Bynes, which some people consider risky, whether it is the introduction of Marlon Haywood, or the introduction of Leo Koke, and the free transfer of Sheringham, many people have greatly appreciated West Ham.

Really do big things with little money.

It took less than three million pounds to bring in many powerful players. Haywood, Coke and Sheringham are all real players in League One. Their arrival has greatly increased the strength of the team. Even the transfer of Baines was considered risky by many, but there was not much criticism.

After all, it is a young player who is eighteen and a half years old, and it can be regarded as bringing in young players. West Ham United is supposed to train young people, and it is understandable to buy these half-finished players.

But.......

As soon as they began to praise West Ham's low-key simplicity and style of doing big things with little money, West Ham shocked them. £1.4 million, bringing in two players from League One promotion.

How so?

Why are Lambert and Ribery so expensive.

They couldn't figure it out. These reporters are all supernatural people, and it was soon discovered that Chen Ping, along with Lambert and Ribery, were all coaches and players under the same agent. Lambert and Ribery were both players that Chen Ping brought when he was at Oxford United.

It's obvious.

They were able to come to West Ham because of West Ham's new coach Chen Ping.

That's easy to say.

Catty.

There's definitely something greasy in this. As a result, many newspapers were instantly surrounded by the transfer. Not to mention now, even West Ham United are very cautious about spending money in the Premier League.

It's rare to be so lavish. How did it cost tens of millions of pounds to buy two League Two players. Even if Lambert were the top scorer in League Two and Ribery was the best full-back in League Two, it wouldn't be that expensive. As a result, all kinds of doubts are getting louder. They all questioned Chen Ping, the new coach of West Ham, of pretending to be public and collecting money that should not have been collected.

Lambert Ribery?

The strength of these two players has also been questioned by many media.

However, Chen Ping ignored their doubtful voices, and still carried out the actions in the transfer market step by step.

Of course, although this voice is loud, it is not the most talked about in English football, and it is not the focus of English football at the moment. Because now the most talked about in English football is Chelsea, and the most concerned is still Chelsea, because Chelsea has a rich man Roman Abramovich.

With the arrival of the Russian tycoon at Chelsea, Chelsea began waving cheques to buy players around the world. The first club Ranieri has set his sights on is relegated West Ham United.

Ranieri has his eye on West Ham with two men.

One is Glenn Johnson and the other is Joe Cole.

Rich.

That's all I can say. Claudio Ranieri offered a whopping £6 million for Glen Johnson, who had only played half a season, and the hearts of West Ham's top brass began to beat fast.

If Chen Ping hadn't tried his best to oppose it, West Ham would have sold Glenn Johnson directly.

Because don't look at Glen Johnson as a talent produced in the West Ham Academy, but his real value is only two or three million pounds now. Even if the transfer fee is a bit exceeded, it will definitely not exceed five million pounds. If it can sell for four million pounds, it is already a pretty good sell.

But Ranieri came up with six million pounds.

However, Glenn Johnson is an important pawn in Chen Ping's strategy, and the two full-backs are very important in Chen Ping's strategy. And keeping Glenn Johnson was Chen Ping's request when he took office. Therefore, it is a pity that the top management of West Ham United still vetoed the transfer of Glen Johnson. However, Glenn Johnson Chen Ping can veto it, but Joe Cole's matter Chen Ping can't decide.

Because Joe Cole is indeed a genius, he is now hailed as the next "Gascoigne" by the current English football world. Such a player has a lot of autonomy and it is impossible to play League One with West Ham.

In that case, let's sell it.

Take the money.

Chelsea have money anyway. It has been rising from £5 million onwards, and West Ham have been biting because of the precedents of Canute and Sinclair. Anyway, the West Ham hierarchy also understands that Chelsea are really rich. Rumor has it that Abramovich gave Ranieri a blank check.

Sure enough, Chelsea are not afraid of you bargaining, they are afraid that you will not bargain. As long as you bargain, Chelsea are not afraid of anything.

After a flurry of price increases, Joe Cole's price quickly climbed to £9.8 million. West Ham eventually succumbed to the money offensive. The captain of West Ham United, England's most anticipated talent, has been charged £9.8 million for a transfer.

And that's not the final transfer fee. There are also other clauses attached, such as the number of appearances and goals scored at Chelsea, and if the additional clauses are activated, West Ham will be able to get more than £12 million from Chelsea.

West Ham are very satisfied.

Except for these starts, there were some small transfers, and the transfer fees were not high. But it's also fleshing out West Ham's squad. Most of them are some players that Chen Ping has brought in from League C and League Two.

On July 20, 2003, the team was assembled for pre-season training. After a busy summer, Chen Ping came up with a first-team squad of 25 people.

Of course, that's not all there is to West Ham United, who have excelled in the academy. Chen Ping could promote a number of young players from West Ham's academy at any time to join the first team.

However, on the whole, Chen Ping is still quite satisfied with this first-team list. This lineup should deal with the English League, and Chen Ping is very sure. As for the breakthrough in the cup, it depends on how the league goes.
