781. The transfer market is a mess
2017 International Champions Cup China ......
It was probably the toughest competition Liverpool have played in recent years.
Lonshit started from the first second, but they still couldn't beat their opponents!
"Goal shootout! Liverpool drew 5-5 with Bayern! ”
"Ajax drew Liverpool! Longshute is difficult to save the master with eight goals in a single game! ”
"Captain Dragons scored a hat-trick in both halves! The Reds draw 4-4 with AC Milan! ”
Some Liverpool fans who did not watch the live broadcast even hallucinated after seeing the third news headline:
tmd! You're underestimating the level of education in our British Empire, aren't you?
The top and bottom halves scored hat-tricks, so Liverpool scored at least 6 goals, right?
But how is the score only 4-4?
Don't tell me...... Will the dignified Dragon Shute score an own goal?!
The reason why Chelsea and Everton agreed to send the full squad to participate in such a game, in addition to the high appearance fee, there is another important reason.
Ronshit has pledged to play just 45 minutes for the Reds in their game against Liverpool.
And in the other 45 minutes, he will join the opponent's lineup and fight back against Liverpool!
So these competitions, unsurprisingly, have turned into personal exhibition competitions for Long Shute!
He played five games in five cities, playing the full 90 minutes in each game, scoring a total of 38 goals, an average of 7.6 goals per game.
Due to only two victories over Chelsea and Everton, Liverpool only got 9 points, ranking second in China behind Bayern with 11 points from 3 wins and 2 draws.
It was the only runners-up trophy that Lonsette had won since joining Liverpool, but he was not ashamed.
Instead, he felt that such an event was ...... It's fun!
After two incredibly successful seasons, it is indeed of great significance to be able to unceremoniously teach Liverpool a lesson to their self-proclaimed invincible team-mates!
In the second half of July, the summer transfer window in Europe has been carried out for more than half of the time.
Many important signings are also close to landing.
Due to Neymar's sky-high transfer in 2016, today's player market is rising, and any star is more than 40 million, and even the hairy youth boy who has a little potential and has never played in the first team can shout out tens of millions of prices!
Barcelona, who failed in all competitions last season, is clearly the most unstoppable.
I don't know if they burned their brains and made a formal offer to Liverpool for 100 million euros to buy Salah!
Before Long Shute could respond, the whole football world burst into laughter.
Are you kidding?
Coutinho sold 150 million last year, and now Salah, who has scored more goals than him, only has 100 million?!
Salah is also quite tough, and he directly stated in the public media:
"It's not impossible for me to join Barcelona, but only if it ...... I'm going with the dragon! ”
Barcelona could only smash their fax machine with a hammer:
Now Long Ritian, there is no 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Barca, who failed to make a bid for Salah, took a different approach, signing French star Ousmane Dembele from Borussia Dortmund for a total of €130 million.
In order to transfer to Barcelona, Dembele, who is only 20 years old, can be said to do everything.
He was late for training, he had a conflict with his teammates, he went out of training, he boycotted the game, he lost contact......
Dortmund's attitude was very tough at first, and they even resorted to an intra-team ban to try to make an example, which also received a wave of praise at the time, and most people thought that Dembele's transfer drama ended here.
But the Frenchman disappeared from Dortmund for two weeks!
In this way, he completely broke with Bumblebee!
If it was at Manchester United, Mourinho could make Dembele completely rot on the bench, or even not let him play for a second for three years, and when his contract expires, who knows if you are a human or a ghost?
But Borussia Dortmund cannot afford to do so, and they can't afford to waste the value of their players for the sake of their aggressiveness.
In a way, this is also the difference between the two clubs......
So in 2015, Real Madrid attacked De Gea for more than three months, and finally was detained by the tough Van Gaal.
Dortmund, on the other hand, had to let go of the French youngster.
The same French youngster, another younger, Kylian Mbappe, also set a new record.
The 18-and-a-half-year-old Mbappe joined Paris Saint-Germain at a total price of 1.8 euros for a total price of 1.8 euros that surpassed Dembele and Coutinho, and successfully met Neymar, who was 200 million euros.
As for Cavani, he was sold out by Paris because of the previous penalty turmoil......
And in the center of the striker, Grand Paris signed French fellow Oliver Giroud.
Real Madrid, who lost to Cardiff, finally kept their academy Morata behind, while at the same time, they also wanted to poach one of Icardi and Dybala to bolster their attacking firepower in midfield.
But perhaps given that their midfield is already overcrowded, perhaps ...... It's just that the two Argentine internationals were reminded by a teammate of the national team, and Real Madrid ultimately failed to succeed.
Not only did they fail to recruit new blood, but they also had to let go of a big player, Colombian star J Ronaldo, who was on loan from Bayern.
In addition, Real Madrid bought defender Theo Hernandez for 30 million and midfielder Dani Saballos for 13 million, purging a large number of veterans such as Danilo, Pepe, and Coentrão to prepare for the new season.
Barcelona's side moved much bigger.
In addition to Dembele, they also used 40 million to poach the defender Paulinho from the Chinese Super League giants Evergrande, bought Semedo from Benfica for 30 million, and repurchased their own youth academy Deulofeu from Everton for 12 million, with a net investment of nearly 200 million!
The money that was earned by selling Neymar...... Already TMD is spent!
Now that Alvaro Morata is not leaving, while former striker Diego Costa is insisting on leaving, Chelsea will have to buy a replacement.
Their original target was Everton's Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku, who was also interested in returning to the Blues, but Manchester United, who have the nickname "Raise the Prices United", took the "new monster" with Rooney + cash.
Conte could only shake his head and sigh, then accept Mourinho's provocation.
After all, Chelsea today is really no better than Manchester United, who burns money......
Chelsea had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, buying Romelu Lukaku's international rival Benteke from Liverpool.
As Liverpool's midfield mix became more and more compatible, it was clear that Bentekeke, who was tall but lacked enough skill and awareness, could not squeeze out Firmino's place, and with rivals such as Sturridge, Divock Origi and Ince also eager to play, he had to seek a transfer.
For the teammate who has played side by side for two seasons, Lonshette did not make it too difficult, Chelsea paid 30 million pounds, and Liverpool just let him go, and the whole process can be called smooth.
At the back, Sako and Moreno have also opted to leave, and it is true that they have struggled to secure a consistent starting position in this team, with the former returning to Ligue 1 and the latter returning to La Liga, both of which are the leagues they are most familiar with.
Reliable defenders are not easy to buy, but Liverpool today have no such worries.
Now as long as they beckon in the transfer market, there will naturally be a large number of players coming to them!
Money?
Liverpool, which has just raised a large amount of money with the help of the listing, has money!
Honor?
You may not have heard that for the 2017-18 season, the Liverpool captain has announced their targets.
They are going to keep winning all the championships!
