Chapter 202: Community Shield
The European transfer market is like a wet market.
When Chelsea saw which piece of meat Ferguson had a crush on, they immediately paid for it and snatched it, and it didn't matter if it was expensive.
Abu saw that Ferguson was paying attention to Nani and Anderson, and immediately asked Kenyon to do it, but it was a step too late. It's okay, didn't Ferguson take a fancy to Tevez again?
Abou called Tevez directly and asked him to join Chelsea, and with your looks and hardness, you can play for Chelsea.
"Easy to get homesick? It doesn't matter, I'll give you enough money, and when you miss home, you count the money at home, and when you count until you have cramps, you won't be homesick. ”
Tevez agrees with Abu's statement that if you have something to do, your homesickness will be alleviated a lot! And then Tevez
After doing this, Abu was a little proud, "Mourinho will definitely like it." Let's see if he dares to be dissatisfied with me and question my vision. ”
When Mourinho knew that Abou spent 25 million euros to buy Tevez, he couldn't believe it and stood there dumbfounded.
All he wanted was a lamp, and Abu always liked to stuff some sofas for him. There are too many sofas at home, there is no place to put them, and some desk lamps must be equipped anyway.
Jose Mourinho has an ominous premonition that Abou will definitely want to win the Champions League this season, and the Premier League title will also be within reach. If he doesn't, he may have to say goodbye to Chelsea.
Jose Mourinho has a deep affection for Chelsea and does not want to leave. Chelsea were brought in by him and he knew them very well, they had a good relationship with each other, so it's not easy to leave here and start over.
When the news of Tevez's arrival at Chelsea broke, Ferguson could hardly believe his ears.
"What's going on? Chelsea robbing us again? He was annoyed, and he was a step slower! If it weren't for the internal contradictions in the team, he would have shot a long time ago, and he would not have been cut off by Chelsea again.
In today's transfer market, there are not many players suitable for Manchester United, and it is easy to have problems if they make a hasty move.
Ferguson gritted his teeth and analyzed the competitiveness of the team, it was not bad, endure, endure until the winter transfer window and then make a move, just to judge the state of the team.
The new edition of the Premier League power list produced by the bookmaker came out, and the fans immediately caused heated discussions. The new season of the Premier League is definitely exciting. The summer transfer window has already warmed up.
Chelsea emerged as the favourites to win the title in the summer. They bought Tevez and Malouda, both of which are strong players, and with the original foundation of the team, they are most favored by Spinach and can win the championship.
Arsenal are second in favourites to win the title. That's one place higher than their league position last season. Arsenal's transfer window operation has also been quite successful, not to mention the purchase of Silvestre from Manchester United, but also the recruitment of Sagna, Da Silva and other strong reinforcements.
It has made up for the shortcomings of the team, and as the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Robin van Persie and Bam Adebayor have matured, the impact of Thierry Henry's departure has been further weakened, and there is a strong ability to compete for the title.
Manchester United are third in the odds to win the new season, and the operation of the summer transfer market is incomprehensible.
Only in and out, not in. Sell Heinze, Sylvester and Smith, who performed well last year, for 30 million euros, and then kick it in your pocket?
Manchester United has no money, and the owner is sucking blood, everyone knows this, but it won't be so picky!
Winning the Champions League and the league, Manchester United must continue to spend money if they want to go further, otherwise it will be impossible to maintain their advantage.
Ferguson is also helpless!
Liverpool have added players such as Benayoun and Babel, and their strength has improved slightly on paper, but with Gerrard, Hargreaves and Alonso working together more tacitly, Torres is integrated into the team, and Liverpool will definitely go further.
The team's odds to win the championship are in fourth place, but Benitez has already shouted the championship declaration: "Winning the championship in these two years!" We're ready. ”
The Premier League is preceded by a Community Shield between the league champions and the FA Cup winners, warming up the league.
Of course, if a team wins both the league and the FA Cup, the other side in the Community Shield will be replaced by the second place team in the league.
The Community Shield is only a warm-up tournament and is generally not included in the team's honor statistics, so the team's participation is only regarded as a warm-up and will not be too popular.
However, in recent years, both sides of the Community Shield are good, Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal are all regulars, often meet, who wins the Community Shield, is related to the face of the giants, it is not easy to deal with it too much, and the players are quite devoted.
In addition to the Community Shield match against Arsenal, Manchester United also had a warm-up game.
UEFA Super Cup.
The match between the winner of the Champions League and the UEFA Cup is usually played at the Louis II Stadium in Monaco. This year's UEFA Super Cup is scheduled for September 1.
Manchester United will take on new UEFA Cup winners Sevilla. In his last life, Sevilla won the UEFA Cup for two consecutive seasons, playing the Super Cup against Barcelona and Milan respectively.
However, in the 2005-06 season, Kaisa led the team to defeat Sevilla and win the League Cup. However, in the UEFA Super Cup that year, Kaisa left the team, and AZ Alkmaar was slaughtered by Champions League champion Barcelona with three goals.
In 2006-07, Sevilla reached the final of the UEFA Cup again, beating Espanyol, and will meet Manchester United this year.
Ahead of the Community Shield, Arsene Wenger was full of confidence and he thought the team was strong. You can win the Community Shield and get the season off to a great start.
Speaking to reporters, Arsene Wenger said: "I am very satisfied with the operation of the summer transfer window, although the transfer window has not closed, but our operation has been completed. We have more time to prepare, which is very important. ”
"It's not like some teams, even though they didn't buy anyone, they still boldly sold people. I guess they guess someone will come in soon! Arsene Wenger teased.
"Looking forward to the new season?" The reporter asked routinely.
Arsene Wenger is relatively low-key, rarely hears the announcement of the title, and when reporters ask questions, he does not carry much hope, but today he clearly miscalculated.
Arsene Wenger's fighting spirits, especially when he bought Silvestre from Manchester United, are a treasure and he looks forward to the new season with a high profile: "I think I can start competing for the title from now on. ”
"I'm not wrong, we're going to fight for the title this year. We have always been a strong contender for the title. ”
Arsene Wenger gave the microphone to the captain Cesc Fabregas, who was also interviewed, and Fabregas understood what Wenger meant, and was also very confident, "The opponents who won the championship are very strong, but we are not weak at all. ”
'We are confident of competing with Manchester United and Chelsea, and with Manchester United's summer transfer window running almost none, our chances are even greater.
"And, Manchester United's Kaisa will be beaten back to form this season, and he can't score as many goals again. Last season, all the Premier League teams were unfamiliar with him, this season is different. Kaisa will have the most difficult defense. ”
Fabregas still wants to compete with Kaisa, he wants to win the Golden Boy Award, but he is snatched away by Kaisa, and there is always a thorn in his heart.
'The Community Shield is the first chance of the season and we will definitely beat Manchester United and we will definitely get the season off to a good start.'
Manchester United, in the face of reporters, is much more low-key, Scholes was interviewed, he said very little, of course, low-key.
