As the clock ticks into August, the footsteps of the new season are getting closer.

Since the Premier League started the first round of the new season on August 11, after entering August, the summer transfer operations of the Premier League teams have basically come to an end, and the recruitment of each team has gradually become clear.

Manchester United have undoubtedly become the protagonists of the European transfer market this summer.

After reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, Ferguson's side did not until the final round of the league to narrowly hold Liverpool down and win the league title by a very narrow margin, which made the Red Devils feel the crisis deeply.

Deep-pocketed Manchester United brandished their cheques over the summer.

Ferguson brought in Brazilian striker Anderson from Porto, known as Ronaldinho II, and Portuguese winger Nani from Sporting Lisbon, both of whom are expected to pay around 25 million euros.

For these two transfer fees, Manchester United spent 50 million euros.

In addition, Manchester United brought in England defender Owen Hargreaves from Bayern Munich for 25 million euros, which is a clear sign that Ferguson has strengthened his midfield.

After all, Scholes and Giggs are both old.

Heinze transferred to Real Madrid for 12 million euros, the Argentine left full-back was originally going to join Liverpool, Benitez and Heinze have basically negotiated, but they were strongly opposed by Ferguson, and the transfer deal had to be canceled after the Premier League ruling.

After Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's retirement, players such as Alan Smith, Rossi and Richardson also left the team.

The most recent transfer development, on the first day of August, Manchester United announced the loan of Argentine striker Carlos Tevez from West Ham United and paid him a loan fee of up to 20 million euros for two years, with the right of first refusal to buy him after two years.

Like Mascherano, Tevez's ownership is quite complicated, with West Ham and Corinthians, as well as an MSI agency owned by Horabuchin behind him, both owning the player, making it difficult for United to get their hands on him.

In contrast, Liverpool undoubtedly made a very shrewd deal with Mascherano, not only half a year earlier, but also decided to sign Mascherano early, which led to Liverpool's investment in the Argentine midfielder becoming quite cost-effective.

With the introduction of Carlos Tevez, Nani, Anderson and Hargreaves, Manchester United's overall quality has become quite impressive, not only in the first team, but also on the bench, and the overall quality is clearly higher than last season.

Therefore, before the start of the season, Manchester United was already the top favorite to win the title in the new season.

……

Compared with Manchester United, which has deep pockets and spends 100 million dollars, Chelsea's investment this summer has begun to shrink significantly.

Last season, the Blues were a big problem on the wings, so this season Chelsea have also spent €20 million from Lyon on French left winger Malouda and €6 million from Barcelona on right wing-back Belletti.

Jose Mourinho is clearly hoping to improve his wide attack and defence in the new season with this first and last two wide players.

At the same time, Chelsea have also brought in Brazilian centre-back Alex from PSV Eindhoven, midfielder Sidwell from Reading and striker Pizarro from Bayern Munich, all on free transfers.

With 26 million euros spent, Chelsea's investment has obviously shrunk a lot from before, but more importantly, the Blues have earned 36 million euros from the sale of Arjen Robben to Real Madrid, plus 10 million euros from the sale of Lars Diarra and Glen Johnson.

Overall, instead of investing, the Blues have made money in the transfer market this summer.

This once again confirms the speculation that the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has caused Abramovich's wealth to shrink significantly.

Everyone speculated that the Blues would have to get used to living smartly from now on.

……

Arsenal have also made money in the transfer market this year.

Las Diarra, Da Silva, Sagna, Fabianski and Nordved – the five players cost the Gunners around €35 million in transfer fees, but selling Thierry Henry would have earned €24 million.

In addition, Reyes sold 12 million euros, and three players such as Ljungberg, Arriadire and Memba also earned 10 million euros, and the Gunners also made a lot of money in the transfer market this summer.

And everyone is starting to think that after selling Vieira and Henry in quick succession, the Gunners have clearly lost their aggressiveness.

Whether it is limited by financial situation or Arsene Wenger's own adjustments, in a short period of time, Arsenal cannot find a player who can replace Thierry Henry, and this team is destined to accompany him in the new season.

……

Compared to the other three teams, Liverpool's investment is not as good as Manchester United's, but it is not a goalkeeper either.

Mascherano alone spent 24 million euros on the club, Benayoun and Lucas Rewa also spent 20 million euros on the club, and with San Jose, Liverpool spent 45 million euros on the transfer market.

Players such as Luis Garcia, Cisse and Pongele also recovered 22 million euros for Liverpool.

Therefore, in terms of total investment in the Premier League, Liverpool is second to Manchester United.

Although they have not invested much in the transfer market, Liverpool have renewed the contracts of a number of important players in the squad this summer.

As soon as the season ended, the club announced that the contracts of Gerrard and Carragher were successfully renewed, and the team continued to renew the contracts of Xavi Alonso, Aurelio, Rise, Finnan and other outstanding players in the team.

On the last day of July, Liverpool officially announced that it had successfully renewed Yang Yang's contract.

Although the Reds did not announce Yang Yang's contract renewal salary, British media immediately broke the news that Yang Yang signed a record salary for the highest salary in the history of the Premier League, with a weekly salary of up to 150,000 pounds, which further set a new record in the Premier League.

If the club's financial expenditure is compared to a balance, then salaries and transfer fees will always be at both ends of the scale, one side is high, and the other side must be kept as low as possible.

Liverpool won the Champions League, the Premier League also won the runner-up, and the financial income has skyrocketed, but with this round of contract extension, the team's salary burden has also increased, so it is natural to properly control the transfer fee.

After all, in terms of financial revenue, Liverpool can't catch up with Manchester United.

……

However, there is a saying that is very true, after all, the league still has to consider the overall strength.

With the accumulation of Manchester United over the past few seasons and the $100 million invested this summer, Ferguson's side are favored by all bookmakers, and everyone believes that the Red Devils are still the favourites to win the Premier League this season.

Manchester United's odds to win the title are as high as 2.37, which proves how much everyone is optimistic about Manchester United.

Chelsea is a confirmation of the saying that the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, although the Blues sent away Robben, and there are no heavy reinforcements in the transfer market, but in the end, the overall strength is still there, and Mourinho has threatened to make a comeback this season and win the Premier League title again.

As a result, all bookmakers, including William Hill, see Chelsea as the second favourites to win the title, with odds of 2.5 to sit just behind Manchester United.

Liverpool are priced at six to win the title, third in the Premier League, and Arsenal are eleven to win the title.

This shows how much everyone is not optimistic about the gunman.

As for other teams, Wigan Athletic, Fulham, Derby County and Birmingham are as high as 2,501 and are considered relegation favourites.

……

Since Yang Yang won all the honors of the Premier League last season and achieved an unprecedented Grand Slam in the Premier League, everyone is still very optimistic about Yang Yang's performance in the new season.

In the major bookmakers, the odds of the best player in the Premier League, Yang Yang is six to one, a veritable favorite, everyone believes that after Henry leaves Barcelona, Yang Yang will become the number one star in the Premier League this season.

After Yang Yang, Rooney and Xiao Xiaoluo, who play for Manchester United, are both seven to one.

Both Manchester United players have high hopes from the media, who believe that Wayne Rooney and Ronaldo are the most promising players to challenge Yang Yang, as the Reds are strong enough in their own right.

But there are also many media outlets that believe that Rooney does not have such strength, except for his status as a homegrown player.

Chelsea's Didier Drogba is fourth, one to eight, as he was the second highest scorer in the Premier League last season, which was also Drogba's all-time high-scoring season, and everyone is optimistic that the Monster will be at its peak.

Players such as Steven Gerrard, Cesc Fabregas, John Terry and Frank Lampard are tied for fifth.

Although the odds offered by the bookmaker do not mean anything, it just proves that in the eyes of all fans around the world, especially in the eyes of fans in the UK, Yang Yang has successfully proven his strength after his outstanding performance last season, and he has become a well-deserved top star in the Premier League, even the number one star.

And everyone is confident in his performance for the new season.

However, some media said that Yang Yang's strength is undoubted, but he missed the preparation period for the new season due to the fact that he received a call-up from the national team and participated in the Asian Cup, so it is always unknown whether the state of the new season can continue to be excellent.

In this regard, Liverpool manager Benitez said that he is full of confidence in Yang Yang.

'In fact, we've introduced a new approach to fitness for the new season, because in the past we were more focused on fitness, which led to us dropping too many points in the first half of the league, especially in the opening stages.

'We've changed our strategy this season and we're going to start picking up points from the first round of the league, so that's going to mean that every one of us has to get into the groove when the league starts.

'It's been a season for the team to win the Premier League and I have a lot of confidence in that.

"Yang Yang called me and he told me that he was full of hunger for the new season and that he had adjusted his condition."

Benitez's announcement for the new season had just been shouted, and Yang Yang quietly arrived at London Heathrow Airport on his hind feet.

He returned early!
