In the post-match press conference, the media focused on Fang Jue, who led Aston Villa to equal Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten run.

All kinds of praise, boasting, don't want money to surround him.

This left home team Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger in the cold.

The professor's expression was calm, and he watched all this with great self-cultivation.

Fang Jue was thoughtful, and he turned the topic to Arsenal, praising the glory of Arsenal's unbeaten record of 49 games that year.

"I was amazed when I saw it on the TV news." Fang Jue smiled and said, "I thought at the time, it's amazing. ”

After praising Arsenal in the past, Fang Jue began to praise Arsenal today, he praised Arsenal for playing well today, if it weren't for the lack of time, Arsenal might have equalized the score.

Despite the pout of some reporters, even if Arsenal equalized and Aston Villa's three points turned into a point, it will still tie Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten record.

However, in any case, Wenger, who lost, showed a lot of self-restraint, and Fang Jue, who won and tied the record, was also very personable.

At the end of the press conference, Fang Jue and Arsene Wenger shook hands and embraced.

It looks like a piece of harmony.

As for what the two parties thought in their hearts, there is no way to know.

After the press conference, the entire Aston Villa squad left the pitch and returned to their hotel to rest.

According to the media, Aston Villa FC have prepared an in-house dinner at the hotel to celebrate the team's equalling of Arsenal's record.

Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal fans have left the pitch and players have left in buses.

Only the staff were checking the turf maintenance, and the cleaners were cleaning up the trash in the stands.

Arsene Wenger put his hands in his trouser pockets and didn't speak, just pacing on the sidelines alone.

He bent down and touched the turf of the pitch.

"The turf is good and the course is beautiful." A voice rang out behind Arsene Wenger, "However, we are still more accustomed to and miss Highbury. ”

The professor turned his head to look, stunned, he clapped his hands and slapped the grass clippings, "You're here." ”

Wilton, a photojournalist on the official website of the Arsenal club, clicked the shutter and snapped a picture.

In front of him at the empty Emirates Stadium, 61-year-old Wenger stood with deep wrinkles on his face, and in front of him were 41-year-old Bergkamp, 37-year-old Pires, 41-year-old Lehmann, and at the far end, 33-year-old Henry was walking slowly with two men.

In the empty stands, a banner was looming: Arsenal, can't go on like this

……

The next day's newspaper had almost all the headlines belonged to Aston Villa, who were unbeaten in 49 league games.

Diego of the Quaternary Single. Costa, manager Arsene Wenger.

The photo of these two men is the most frequently used on the front page.

Although it only equaled Arsenal's record, in today's Premier League, being able to equal this record that was originally considered difficult to chase again, Fang Jue and his team are enough to make everyone admire and impress.

I can't praise it enough.

Fang Jue gave the players of the team a half-day off.

There were fewer first-team players in the training base and it was noticeably quieter.

Fang Jue did not take a holiday, the players could take a holiday to rest, and the coach did not rest.

"Did Liverpool call back?" Fang Jue asked.

Just after yesterday's game, Aston Villa issued an ultimatum to Liverpool:

Costa's transfer fee is £50 million, not a penny.

Liverpool gave a painful word, if they are willing to give this money, they will complete the transfer; Without this courage, transfer talks would have been terminated.

Aston Villa have asked Liverpool to respond within 24 hours.

……

"What do you think of Vera's information?" Liverpool boss Thierry Henry asked.

Even for such a large-scale negotiation as 50 million pounds, the big American boss did not come in person, he participated in the meeting through video call.

"The news we got was that Costa scored four goals in yesterday's game, which made Fang Jue regret it, and he hesitated and didn't want to sell Costa." Said the club's sporting director, Comoli.

"It's possible." Head of Technical Analysis at the Club, Michael Brown. Edwards said, "We also got the news that Costa's agent Mendes was less enthusiastic about promoting the transfer, and it is said that Mendes's daughter came forward to help Fang Jue persuade Mendes not to continue to promote the transfer." ”

"It's the Ma Lina who has a good relationship with Fang Jue's wife. Mendes, who is Mendes' daughter. Gordon said to Big Boss Henry.

"What about the coach, what is your opinion?" Henry asked Dalglish.

The old man has been silent, he is silently turning the pen, the pen is very bad, and he will fall after earning two laps, but he is happy to do it.

"My opinion has always been clear." Dalglish's voice was loud, "I want Costa." ”

"Mr. Dalglish, we have communicated before, and you agree that Carol is an alternative." Comoli said.

"Yes, I'll admit, I've agreed to consider Carol, and that lad is really good." Dalglish was dismayed and said, "However, Costa has the highest priority. ”

"What did Newcastle say?" Gordon asked.

"Ashley's miser has offered £35 million and has refused to accept the price cut." Edwards said: "Although the Villans are also greedy to put a £50 million price tag on Costa, my analysis is that Costa is more reliable. ”

"Gordon stays, and the others can leave." In the video window, Henry said.

After the others left, Gordon closed the door.

"It's clear that now they all know that we bought Torres and got £50 million in our account, so they're all asking a lot of money and they're not willing to cut the price."

At this time, Edwards, the technical analysis director who had just left, quietly pushed the door in, and compared to the General Administration of Sports Comori, this young man was more trusted by the big American bosses.

"And, very importantly, there's no reason why Costa or Carroll, Aston Villa or Newcastle have to sell." Edwards said, "Even if Costa offers a transfer offer, the news we get is that his relationship with Fang Jue has not been affected, and as long as Fang Jue actively persuades him, Costa may withdraw his decision to leave." ”

'So, that means we have to get players and we have to throw money at them, and both Aston Villa and Newcastle understand that.

"Michael, what about your opinion?" Henry asked.

'I chose Costa, a player who is in very good form at the moment and is the top scorer in the Premier League. Edwards said, "This is Costa's second season in the Premier League, he has adapted to the Premier League and there is one thing that I agree with Mr. Coach, which is more useful than Torres in terms of tactical position. ”

"As for the price of 50 million pounds, it is indeed high." "However, this is the best option in the current situation, and it will be difficult to find a more suitable player in the winter transfer. ”

The two of them have said everything they have to say, and now it's up to the big boss Henry's decision.

"Greedy British, they're all staring at my money." Henry scolded very unpleasantly.

"Ashley is British, Fang Jue is Chinese." Gordon reminded.

"They're all staring at my money bag." Henry's temper came up, and after a while, he finally spoke, "Regardless of the money factor, do you think it is worth it for Costa to Torres?" ”

"It's hard to say." This is Gordon, "but Costa is really good. ”

"It's worth it!" This is Edwards, who has always stood firm.

"Inform Dalglish that his request has been met." Henry thought for a few more minutes before finally making a decision, "Hopefully our £50 million will show value." ”

……

In the evening of the same day.

Villa training base.

The players have left the training base after finishing the afternoon training.

The lights in the conference room in the office building are still on.

Including head coach and owner Fang Jue, club president Rebeto, club vice-president Aveline. Patrick. Karina, the club's chief executive, Bob. Clarke, the club's general manager Byron, the club's technical director John Murphy. Peters and others are all in the room.

Clark's cell phone rang.

After a brief call, Clarke hung up and said happily, "The Liverpudlians have agreed, and the fax of the £50 million offer has been sent." ”

The high-level leaders of Vera in the conference room cheered, except for Rebeto, this guy squeezed his eyes at Fang Jue and moved his lips: Dog capitalist.

Fang Jue ignored this guy.

"Now I announce." Miss Papa knocked on the table, "Three things. ”

"Aim to expedite the transfer process for Costa, and leave this to Mr. Clark."

"The transfer negotiations with Ajax on the Uruguayan should also be accelerated, and this will be left to Mr Byron, who is also involved in the negotiations."

"One last thing." Papa turned to look at her husband.

"Leave it to me." Fang Jue smiled, "Everything is ready, I've been waiting for the Liverpudlian people to come with money." ”

……

After the adjournment of the meeting.

Miss Papa made Fang Jue a cup of coffee.

Reberto knocked on the table, "Papa, what about mine." ”

"Ignore this guy." Fang Jue said angrily.

Miss Papa was used to the bickering of the two, and she made Reberto the same cup of coffee.

"Still not calling?" Reberto said at Fang Jue.

"I can't call, it's your business."

"Ha, I already knew you were playing with this idea." Rebeto had an expression that had already seen through everything, "Last summer, Real Madrid wanted to poach the Croats, and Li Fatzi was considering agreeing to the offer, but if you said that it was not suitable to go to the giants now, the Croatians listened to you and chose to stay in Ibiza." ”

"Fat Li also saw it, and he complained at that time, you are the most insidious one."

"I interpret this as a slander of jealousy." Fang Jue crossed Erlang's legs, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed a number, "Luca, it's me." ”
