Ten more eruptions are over! ――

Ashley Cole's contract extension talks were already on the agenda a few months ago, with a dangerous year left on his Arsenal contract.

Ashley Cole has asked for £80,000 a week, and Arsenal's initial budget is to give him a £55,000 week, perhaps among the European football giants, Arsenal will look stingy.

But if you know that Pire's weekly salary is only 45,000 pounds a week, you can understand that Arsenal is not stingy, but cannot be compared with other giants, and the financial austerity is for healthy development, not simply picking on the door and being stingy.

Ashley Cole was very unhappy with the conditions given by Arsenal.

At the same time, there was the "Colmen" incident that shocked the football world.

Ashley Cole has been spotted in a private meeting with Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho in his VIP room at the Park Royal Hotel in London!

The FA stepped in to investigate, with Ashley Cole and his agent insisting they were unaware of Jose Mourinho and Chelsea CEO Kenyon being at the hotel.

When questioned by the FA, Mourinho argued that he had never considered signing Ashley Cole on the grounds that Ashley Cole was not of the right height and that he had only gone to see Ashley Cole to inquire about the Arsenal dressing room.

In the end, this incident led Arsenal FC to renew Ashley Cole's contract despite being forced to renew his contract, and after negotiation, Ashley Cole's weekly salary was increased to 70,000 pounds, becoming the third highest-paid player in the Arsenal team.

But it's no secret that Arsenal's board and management are unhappy with Ashley Cole.

Ashley Cole also had a rift with Arsenal's hierarchy, and the relationship of trust between them collapsed.

The end result of this matter is that Arsenal can only offer Qin Xiong a weekly salary of 55,000 pounds after renewing Ashley Cole's contract. It was only then that Qin Xiong's contract renewal came to an impasse.

It can be said that if Yiqiē is in the control of the club's top management. Then put the weekly salary budget for Ashley Cole's extra place here with Qin Xiong. Then grit your teeth and squeeze out some, Qin Xiong's contract renewal will be satisfied, and the matter has already been settled.

Arsene Wenger now has to think about it, and he doesn't want Qin Xiong's contract renewal negotiations to hang in the air.

He plans to talk to Dane after the game, and ask Dane to raise Qin Xiong's weekly salary to £70,000, even if it is a matter of finalizing this matter in the winter or next summer by selling a multi-million pound player to cover the financial expenses.

When Arsene Wenger came to his senses, he suddenly frowned, and Arsenal, who had already led by three goals, were beaten by Fulham with a normal wave of attacks.

Fulham's left midfielder Boamott takes on Lauren one-on-one. It seems that Boamot doesn't have too much impact, but he breaks through Lauren in a change of direction, and Lauren chases back and releases the tackle in a hurry, and his foot hooks down Boamot!

In the restricted area!

The referee's whistle blew and Fulham was awarded a penalty.

Arsene Wenger looked disgruntled.

Since the pre-season preparation, he actually felt that Lauren's form had declined, which is why in the last game against Chelsea, he would tell Ljungberg to actively retreat to form defensive pressure on Chelsea's left wingers, which can be regarded as insurance for Lauren's defense.

Unexpectedly, Lauren's form not only did not pick up in this game, but also continued to decline from the beginning of the season.

Fulham's penalty was awarded in one fell swoop. They pulled a goal back.

However, with eight minutes to go, Arsenal scored another goal.

It was a long-range shot from Pire that was blocked by goalkeeper Werner. Qin Xiong followed up and also blasted a high-quality long-range shot on the periphery, but unfortunately he still played a little right, making a save from Wernall, and Ljungberg sent the ball into the goal with a follow-up shot in the penalty area.

'At full-time, the defending champions started the season with three wins in a row, Fulham beat Highbury 1-4, their courage in the game was commendable, but the defense was a bit terrible, but we don't have to be overly critical of Fulham's defence, there are very few teams in the Premier League who have kept two clean sheets against Arsenal in one season, and that's where Arsenal's attack is strong."

At the end of the game, Arsene Wenger shook hands with the Fulham boss and walked to the players' tunnel.

Taking all three points does not mean that the team has no problems, Lauren is a lingering haze in Wenger's heart, but Wenger intends to give Lauren some more chances, after all, he is a veteran who has been with the team for many years, plus his exploits when he is undefeated.

But Lauren's replacement, Wenger must prepare early, this is planned, Eboue's entry from the second team to the first team is to make a backup for Lauren, but initially it was only a rotation, and now, it is possible that Eboue will be replaced.

Arsenal's attacking firepower of three goals per game in three games has made the Premier League and European football feel a little numb.

When will Arsenal's goalscoring frenzy end?

On Monday, Dane offered to invite Freddie to the office for a meeting.

Freddie waited for Arsenal's offer, hoping that both parties would be satisfied, and that they would reach a contract extension as much as possible, and it had been delayed, but in fact, Qin Xiong's side also had to take the risk.

For example, if Qin Xiong is seriously injured, then Arsenal will definitely have a reason to lower the renewal conditions, but if the renewal has been completed, even if Qin Xiong is seriously injured, he can also get a high salary.

Qin Xiong's contract renewal with the team has dragged on from the end of May to the end of August, during which the progress has been slightly slow, but they have been able to sit down and talk calmly.

Dane openly handed a contract to Freddy, saying: "This is our greatest sincerity, Qin Xiong can become the third highest-paid player in the team, he is our star, we hope he can always play for Arsenal, as far as I know, Qin Xiong himself is very satisfied with staying at Arsenal." ”

Freddie glanced at the terms of the contract, shook his head and said, "£70,000? Arguably Arsenal's third-highest salary, but there should be a note to add that it is tied with Ashley Cole. I can't agree with this contract, Qin Xiong's value is much higher than Ashley Cole, especially Ashley Cole has caused such a storm before, if it makes a fuss, it can make the club make concessions, then I will definitely encourage Qin Xiong to contact Real Madrid or Inter Milan, why not? Because we respect the Arsenal club and we want the club to respect us! This contract is still a little short of what we are looking for. Mr Dane, I'm tired of this kind of slow negotiation, and my terms are that my salary is £80,000 a week, a signing fee of £500,000, an appearance fee, a goal and assist bonus, and a championship bonus of 50% on top of this contract. I'm not kidding, Thierry Henry is paid more than £100,000 a week, but would anyone say that the money Arsenal put on Henry is an overflow investment? No, it's great value! Henry's competitive value is much higher than the material return he received from Arsenal, then, please Arsenal calmly, rationally, objectively and fairly measure the competitive return brought by Qin Xiong, whether it is worthy of the conditions I offered, if not, it means that we have a disagreement on Qin Xiong's value recognition, then we can't talk about it anymore, if you think it's worth it, please bring the contract, thank you, goodbye. ”

Freddie left, Dane was expressionless and couldn't see joy and anger, he couldn't refute Freddy's words, but he knew that Arsenal had fallen into a very difficult situation on the issue of Qin Xiong's contract renewal. (To be continued......)
