Chapter 163: A Busy Summer (The Third Month!) )
Chen Yingying's nationality turmoil came to a complete end because of his celebration in the game, as well as his words after the game, although there are still some epilogues, but they have nothing to do with the overall situation, and these epilogues are unanimously praised for him, such as praising his patriotism, praising his mature handling methods in the face of crises (). In particular, the celebration of the national flag is considered by many to be the most successful crisis public relations method, and the public relations departments of government departments and large enterprises have been asked to learn from it. Some people think that Chen Yingxing is much more mature than before, and he is growing up little by little and changing.
Liverpool's trip to Beijing was over, and the day after the match, they flew to the United States.
This time they are going to play two invitational tournaments in the United States.
For Chen Yingying, although the nationality matter has passed, another trouble has found him......
Because in the United States, there is Taylor Swift!
In the match between Liverpool and the LA Galaxy, Taylor Swift appeared in the stands, wearing a red Liverpool jersey with Chen Yingying's name and number printed on the back...............
Obviously, she came for Chen Yingying.
The televised camera was focused on her several times during the match. After Chen Yingying's goal, she cheered. When Chen Yingying missed the opportunity, she held her head in her hands and looked very depressed, "Locke, guess what this scene reminds me of?" The ESPN commentator quipped, "I think of the World Cup in France in '98, when Ronaldo fought the field, and Suzanne in the stands attracted more attention and murdered a lot of film for the reporters." How like, hahaha! After the game, Chen Yingying was surrounded by reporters again, and everyone asked him if he knew about Taylor Swift's visit to the game.
Chen Yingying spread his hands: "How could I not know, she called me." I know what you're asking, I mean, can you all have a pure mind? I'm just friends with her, and I see her as a sister......" On the other side, Taylor Swift was surrounded by another group of reporters.
"That's right, I'm here to cheer on the heroes. And because he's a Liverpool fan now! ”
"Then the ...... between you and the hero, a reporter asked.
Taylor Swift said solemnly: "We are good friends, he is like my brother." ”
Both sides insist that they are just friends, and they call each other brother and sister. But the media obviously won't just give up, now it's a hero and a girlfriend. If Chen Yingying is single one day, we don't believe that you can still be together!
So, it seems that the scandal between these two people will continue......

After two friendlies in the United States, Liverpool finally flew home, where they took a break and played another warm-up game before the new game was about to kick off.
While the whole Liverpool squad is flying around the world, Niang is also busy bringing in reinforcements for the team.
Through last season, Niang now feels that Martin O'Neill is right, and that Liverpool don't really need to make drastic changes all at once, and it may be better to do it gradually.
Last season's results speak for themselves. It's just that Liverpool, who have made personnel adjustments in some places, have not broken their muscles, which also allows them to remain competitive enough in the new season, otherwise it is estimated that the whole team will have to delay a lot of time in order to run in this matter last season.
So this season's transfer is still sticking to this line of thinking.
Where there is a shortage of people, it is supplemented in the weak areas, and it is not left in other places.
Bale's introduction strengthens the squad on the wings.
Liverpool now have Bellamy, Adam Johnson, Alexis Sanchez and Gareth Bale on the wings, while Kuyt can also play as a winger.
It's basically enough.
But the problem of the middle lane remains.
Gerald is old. This is a reality that every Liverpool fan is unwilling to face, but has to face. Gerrard's form and quality in all aspects have declined to varying degrees compared to before. He had to find a successor.
Charlie Adam's mediocre performance can only show a useful addition to the bench.
Inle is a purely defensive midfielder.
What Liverpool are missing right now is a midfielder who can thread the needle and tie the whole team together.
In the past, Xavi Alonso could have done the job, but he went to Real Madrid and became the heart of Real Madrid.
Liverpool need to find a new core.
In fact, the target Ni nose has already been there, and he wanted to dig it last season, but people are reluctant to leave.
That's Real Madrid's midfielder Shahin.
Shaheen has been on the move to Real Madrid for two seasons and has not performed well, the first season was due to injury and lack of playing opportunities, and the second season was because of the first season, and lost the trust of Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho and has been excluded from the main team ().
Niang wanted to poach him last season, but at that time Shahin was unwilling to leave Real Madrid in such a gloomy way, which would be seen as an escape, and he wanted to prove his ability at Real Madrid.
But alas, fate did not favor this Turkish genius. Mourinho did not give him a chance to prove his ability.
He has made only a handful of appearances for Real Madrid this season.
He has also repeatedly expressed his intention to leave Real Madrid.
At first, his idea was just to blackmail Mourinho and hope to get a chance to play.
However, Mourinho is not afraid of his threat, and if it is Ronaldo who threatens him, he may raise his hand and surrender.
Keshahin ......,
So when he later said that he was going to leave Real Madrid, he was really leaving.
It was in this situation that Liverpool came to the door again.
Shaheen was touched by the desire to express his desire for himself for two seasons in a row, and he also felt that Liverpool was the most sincere of his suitors. Wanting to join for two seasons in a row obviously shows that they need themselves too and going to Liverpool to get more appearances.
To that end, he agreed to Liverpool's invitation.
Real Madrid are also interested in selling the player.
I bought him to be Alonso's stand-in, but I didn't think that he was not angry, always injured, and his state was all about it, so he still went to the trust of the manager.
Alonso's stand-in is still needed, of course, but it is no longer Shahin's turn to do it.
One party wants to buy, one party wants to sell, and the two sides hit it off ().
In the end, Liverpool brought Shaheen from the Bernabeu to Anfield for five million euros.
Real Madrid originally brought Shaheen from the German club Dortmund for 10 million euros, but now two seasons have passed, Shaheen has not played his strength, and his value has shrunk significantly, directly twice as cheap as the original value.
However, Real Madrid has a lot of money and doesn't care about such a small amount of money, compared to Shahin's annual salary, his annual salary is 2.5 million euros a year, and he has three years left on his contract, and three years will cost him 7.5 million euros in salary alone.
In comparison, if it is sold at half of the discount now, Real Madrid has already earned it.
And for Liverpool, they can be regarded as earned. Although Shaheen did not show his ability in Real Madrid, it was because he lacked opportunities, and a super giant like Real Madrid had fierce internal competition and too much pressure, and Shaheen, as a foreigner, may not be able to withstand such pressure.
Liverpool's environment is a little more relaxed, and Niang also believes that Shaheen is still capable, as long as he is given the right opportunity.
And such an opportunity, Real Madrid can't afford to give it, Liverpool can give it.
Just give him his heart and give him time, and he will definitely show his style when he was at Dortmund. When Dortmund was able to break Bayern's monopoly and win the Bundesliga championship, the core of the midfield, Shahin, contributed a lot.
It is precisely because of this performance that he was favored by Real Madrid.
Shaheen himself is also very happy to join Liverpool. Liverpool won the Europa League by a huge margin last season, and their performances in this competition have stunned European football, especially Chen Yingying, who has scored 30 goals in one season.
This made Shaheen realize that Liverpool is a promising team, and coming to this team can obviously fulfill his wishes. And Liverpool is still in the process of building, and needs players like him to contribute, so it is certainly impossible for him to be without a place ().
As for the Premier League's style of football, he is not worried.
He's mainly in charge of the tempo, and the Premier League is very tempo-oriented. What's more, when he was at Real Madrid, he also learned a lot from Xavi Alonso, which did not have the opportunity to be displayed at Real Madrid, but Liverpool could benefit. Alonso has honed his experience in the Premier League and his experience will be crucial for Shaheen to adapt to the Premier League.
And most importantly, Alonso also contributed to Shaheen's choice of Liverpool.
When Shaheen was determined to leave, but didn't know where to go, Liverpool came to the door again, and Alonso strongly recommended Liverpool to Shaheen, believing that if he could succeed in Liverpool, Shaheen would definitely be able to do the same.
He said a lot of good things about Liverpool, his teammates there, his life there, he told Shaheen about it.
These lessons have also helped Shaheen adapt to life and football at Liverpool.
In this way, Shaheen transferred to Liverpool and became the second important player that Liverpool has gained in the transfer market this season.
Gareth Bale and Shaheen are the ones Niang thinks the team needs most at the moment.
One of the more important positions is the full-back. On the right side, Glen Johnson alone can't last the whole season, and another defender must be found.
But he already had a goal.
After completing Shahin's transfer, he flew directly from Madrid, Spain to Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
He is targeting right wing-back Gregory van de Wiel, the right wing-back of the Dutch national team.
It's been a busy summer for Liverpool FC, for Chen Yingying, for Niang...
