Chapter 132: Dick Silk Mood!

Leeds United fell short in the league in the end, but the team set a record for goals in the English Premier League with 119 goals, and also won in terms of player statistics.

Carlos Tevez broke the single-season personal goal record with 40 league goals, became the deserved top scorer, and was named the best player in the English Premier League. Howson topped the list with 17 assists and became the Premier League's assist leader this season.

Except for the two most important awards won by Leeds players, the other Leeds players were only at the top of the selection and failed to reach the top, especially Zach? Thompson, who is second in average points per game after Tevez "The Beast", ranks sixth on the scorer list, is second to Tevez in the number of player in a single game with 9 times, and is also third in average steals per game with 7.05.

Although Zach? Thompson was not crowned king in one of the categories, but he is still the most important player in the Leeds United team, and his all-round blossom is the best display of his individual ability.

Simon? Grayson also won the Coach of the Season award, beating Ferguson and Arsene Wenger to become the best coach of the English Premier League this season.

For other teams, the arrival of summer means that the team has a chance to strengthen itself, but this is not the case for the "Young Guard". Grayson was almost a disaster and he could only breathe a sigh of relief when the summer transfer window closed.

Because there are too many drooling young players in his team, in addition to the "Leeds Three", like Sime, Red, Pivkowski, and even 16-year-old Ashley? Hood is a sought-after commodity, and one transfer rumor after another is also circulating around them.

'New Manchester United boss David Moyes wants to correct his mistakes. He was going to buy Shaq. ”

"Stamford Bridge welcomes Jose Mourinho, madmen praise Shaq and Red!"

"Barcelona have their eye on Shaq and are looking for a successor for Xavi!"

"Arsenal has no harvest again, Wenger has learned from the pain, and hundreds of millions of dollars have been forced to dig Shaq!"

Simon? Grayson was amused by the transfer rumours, and he knew they might have some truth. But most of it is just media hype, and at most it is just some players' agents who are trying to get a new contract for the player.

Zack? Thompson and his own agent, Glenn? Oxley also made a phone call, the agent is also a big deal, Shaq is just showing his prowess, he reached an agreement with the sports business giant Adidas, bringing in a three-year, 2 million euros a year sponsorship fee, in addition to the fact that he intends to talk to Leeds United about a salary increase, and four big clubs have already wanted to bring in Shaq, and he has been contacted. The conditions offered by the other party are still very tempting.

Zack? Thompson himself has no idea about transferring, and he is depressed that he has not been selected for the new England national team!

Hodgson is considering that the "Three Lions" will play the World Preliminary Match with Ukraine at home, and then play a friendly match with the French team away from home, both games for the England team do not need to go all out, the World Preliminary Tournament England team is as much as 7 points ahead of the second place Ukraine in the eighth group, the possibility of losing at home is very small, and the friendly match with the French team does not matter whether the winner or loses, so this time he picked a lot of newcomers. Chelsea's 23-year-old rookie left-back Ryan? Young players such as Botland, Manchester United's Cleverley and Arsenal's midfielder Gibbs have all been given opportunities.

Of course, Hodgson also considered giving Shaq more time to rest. After all, it's been a full season, and Shaq has played 61 games in all competitions for Leeds United and England this season, which is definitely not a small burden for a young player at just 20 years old.

Can Zack? Who is Thompson, with the help of the magical "black foot" system, his form has been very consistent throughout the season. Originally, he was expecting to play for the "Three Lions" and get some teammates bonus skill points, but he didn't expect to miss the opportunity like this, how could he not be depressed?

In an upset mood, Shaq euphemistically expressed his dissatisfaction to reporters in an interview: "For me, football is all I have!" I didn't think about taking a vacation. You know, I broke up with my girlfriend so I was ready to fight for England again, but now ...... I had to go on vacation. ”

These reporters are also a good thing, and soon took Shaq's words to interview Hodgson, and the coach of the "Three Lions" was not angry, the old man quite understood the young players' eagerness to play: "Well, I can understand Shaq's mood, but I still have to tell this kid that life is not only football, he is only 20 years old, he is still very young, he should find a girlfriend to fall in love, if he can get married, it will be more helpful for him to stabilize his state!" Finally, well, I wish Shaq a happy holiday! Hehehehehe! ”

Hodgson's good temper prevented him from being instigated by reporters, but gave Shaq some new advice.

Zack? Thompson, of course, wasn't idle, and he and Jonny? Hausen, Ben? Parker's two boys went on a vacation to South America in a group, Ben? Parker said that South American girls are passionate, beautiful, and sexy, how can the three boys hold back?

The players are on vacation, Simon? Grayson, the manager, has no way to rest, and he is still actively looking for reinforcements with his colleagues in the coaching staff, Leeds United fell short this season, narrowly missing the league title, which is a rare and valuable experience, but it is also a painful lesson.

This experience made Simon? Grayson and his team understand how brutal the English Premier League can be, and if the overall quality of the team is not strong enough, it will be a miserable result if they only play a whole season with a single squad...... Very miserable!

And at the beginning of next season, the "Young Guards" will also compete in the Champions League, which will be more demanding for the team's squad.

Fortunately, Bierhoff is also a Bieken? Bates is an innumerable chairman of the German and has £50 million in venture capital raised from venture capital firms. Coupled with Leeds United's excellent performance this season and a lot of prize money, the sum of seven, seven, eight and eight is as much as 80 million pounds.

But the expansion plan of Elland Road Stadium also needs a sum of money, this stadium is too small to be enough for the current "Young Guard", not to mention that the Champions League also has requirements for the competition venue, and this 30 million pounds of expansion cost has already been set.

Ultimately. Simon? Grayson only got £30 million in transfer funds, but that's enough, Simon? Grayson doesn't have any plans to revamp the team's midfield, Tevez, Ameobi, Nelson? Oliveira, Jonny? Hausen, Pifkowski, Bentley are still very strong, plus their henchman Shaq, Leeds United's midfield scored 119 goals last season is really not a fluke.

Really let Simon? Grayson's headache is still the team's defensive line, which is enough in the league, but if it comes to the Champions League next season. I'm afraid I'm going to be dwarfed.

Root? Parker and Prune are all excellent, and Red is getting stronger and stronger. Dawson can also be regarded as stable, but Oudi's strength is really average, of course it doesn't matter if he plays a dozen substitutes, but if the team is really stronger, it is imperative to introduce a top central defender.

Simon? Grayson's first choice is Borussia Dortmund's big central defender...... Text? Subotic!

The Serbian centre-back has a very strong air defense and is very consistent on the field. It can be said that Dortmund was able to win the Champions League runner-up this season.

In addition to Subotic, Simon? Grayson also has his eye on Udinese's Argentine centre-back Matthias? Caruzo. The 28-year-old Argentine centre-back is a late bloomer, not tall but with strong marking ability and a more well-rounded technique, which is cheaper than Subotic.

Once the target was chosen, Leeds United began to make an offer, offering Borussia Dortmund £12 million. The offer for Udinese is £7.5 million, both of which are on top of the value of the two players.

After the offer was issued, the two clubs have not replied, Simon? Grayson has really received offers from other teams for his own players, and this time...... It's true!

The first is that the "Reds" Liverpool sent an offer of 7.5 million pounds to Reid. Simon? Of course, Grayson refused without hesitation, his team is short of central defenders, so naturally he can't sell it, and this money is ...... It's not a lot!

The second offer received by Leeds United was stunned, and the new coach of the "Blues" Chelsea, Jose Mourinho, actually gave Ben? Parker sent in an offer of £17.5 million!

£17.5 million!

Simon? Grayson thinks his eyes are wrong, Ben? Parker isn't Shaq or Jonny? Hausen, when did your players become so valuable?

Thinking about it for a long time, Simon? Grayson rejected Chelsea's offer with difficulty, and now the team is not short of money, and the board of directors has not asked him to sell players. Naturally, a player like Parker can't be sold.

However, what about Red, Ben? Parker's contract really needs to be resigned, otherwise these boys will lose a lot if they can't stand the temptation of other teams and go off the road.

Regarding Subotic's offer, Dortmund still refused, but about Madias? Caruzo's offer, but Udinese relented, they returned a price of 11 million, Leeds United after a little mediation, the two sides reached an agreement on the price of 9.5 million pounds, and the negotiations also entered the stage of negotiating a personal contract with the player.

Madias? Caruzo had few difficulties in negotiating with Leeds United, with the late Argentine international happily accepting Leeds United's contract and signing for Simon? Grayson said: "It's an honour to be in a team like Leeds United! I will try to contribute to the team! ”

Belch!

Simon? Grayson is a little crying and laughing, he feels as if he really underestimated the attractiveness of the team, today's "Young Guards" is no longer a dick team, they almost won the English Premier League last season, and finally qualified for next season's Champions League as the runner-up, plus with core players like the "Leeds Three Musketeers", it seems that no matter how you look at it, it is no longer an obscure small team, this change ...... You'll have to get used to it! (To be continued......)
