Alex McLeish said: "East, I'm actually here today to persuade you to leave the Birmingham team with me and take on a new challenge! ”

A new challenge?

Dongfang Chen was shocked, slightly stunned, and his expression was a little frozen.

Because Alex Macleish is a person that Dongfang Chen is very familiar with, and it can also be said that he is very close to him, Dongfang Chen did not wear a mask in front of Alex MacLeish.

Alex McLeish could clearly see that Dongfang Chen was very shocked. Alex McLeish understands that Dongfang Chen never thought that he would leave the Birmingham team.

After a while, Dongfang Chen came back to his senses and asked, "New challenges?" ”

Alex McLeish stared at Dongfang Chen with blazing eyes, nodded firmly and said, "Yes, a new challenge!" ”

Dongfang Chen gasped, but he still couldn't accept the reality, and he asked again: "Do you mean to leave the Birmingham team?" ”

Alex McLeish naturally didn't hide it at this time, he nodded and said, "Yes! I'm leaving Birmingham and I hope you can come with me, I'm optimistic about you. ”

Seeing Alex McLeish's appearance, Dongfang Chen understood that Alex McLeish had made up his mind and would not change.

He was very familiar with Alex Macleish, and he could naturally see some of Alex Macleish's thoughts.

Dongfang Chen knew that there was no way to persuade him, so he dispelled the idea of persuasion, he groaned slightly, and then asked: "I know that you have left with an iron heart, and I will not persuade you." Still, can I find out why? The Birmingham team is doing well now! ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Alex McLeish immediately said: "Birmingham, isn't it good? ”

Listening to Alex Macleish's words, Dongfang Chen was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Alex Macleish to suddenly ask such a question.

Dongfang Chen was stunned and did not answer.

Alex McLeish didn't mean to ask Dongfang Chen to answer, he said to himself: "Yes, the Birmingham team is good now. But this is only for those who do not have a higher aspiration. ”

Alex McLeish continued: "I think you should know very well that Birmingham are not going to get any better results and they have no potential to dig into. This season's results are already the limit for Birmingham! Why? Because Birmingham are just a small team. ”

Alex McLeish didn't seem to say it to Dongfang Chen anymore, as if he was telling himself, which was like his self-persuasion.

Alex McLeish continued: "You can look at this season, we had a very good result in the league, we were very close to qualifying for the Champions League, and we were close to going to next season's Champions League. But why did we fail at the last minute? ”

Alex McLeish didn't let Dongfang Chen answer when he was hungry, he said to himself: "This is because of the limitations of the small team. This season is our best chance, and next season is not such a good chance, when Birmingham will be a thorn in the side of all the teams, and it will be difficult for Birmingham to make a difference. ”

At this time, Dongfang Chen suddenly interjected, and he said: "But Birmingham is not an ordinary small team, we have Carson, he should invest a lot of money to improve the team next season, and our strength will definitely be greatly improved." ”

To Dongfang Chen's surprise, Alex McLeish shook his head slightly, as if he did not agree with Dongfang Chen's words, and Dongfang Chen frowned slightly.

Dongfang Chen immediately said, "Isn't it? ”

Alex McLeish said: "I still say that, it's the limit for Birmingham now. ”

Dongfang Chen was slightly stunned, and wondered: "Why?" ”

Alex McLeish said: "The current group of players is the strongest Birmingham team can attract. With the appeal of a small team like Birmingham, it's hard to attract more powerful players and stars. ”

Alex McLeish said: "Even if Carson continues to invest heavily, it won't improve the team much. Because he can't attract those stars who are stronger before he is big, even if he can attract some stars, these stars are basically veterans over thirty years old, and these veterans must be here because of money! ”

Listening to Alex MacLeish's words, Dongfang Chen thought thoughtfully, as if Alex MacLesh was very reasonable. But he felt that something was wrong, Manchester City and Chelsea were not giants at the beginning, why were they able to attract so many stars?

Although Dongfang Chen didn't ask, Alex McLeish also saw Dongfang Chen's thoughts.

Alex McLeish immediately said, "I know what you're thinking? You wonder how Chelsea in the past and Manchester City in the present were able to attract stars? Isn't it? ”

Dongfang Chen's reputation was concealed, and he immediately nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

Alex McLeish smiled and said: "It's simple, can Birmingham have as much football as Manchester and London? For the players, the attraction of London and Manchester is immense, while Birmingham ...... Not necessarily! ”

Listening to Alex McLeish say this, Dongfang Chen understood a little, and after thinking about it carefully, this was indeed the case.

Actually, what Alex McLeish said is very easy to think of, very easy to understand. Dongfang Chen didn't think of these before, it didn't mean that Dongfang Chen, but he considered the problem from a different angle.

Dongfang Chen is just a player, and he usually doesn't look at these issues with the comprehensive vision of a coach. Moreover, Dongfang Chen is now in the bureau, and the authorities are fascinated.

After thinking about Alex McLeish's words carefully, Dongfang Chen suddenly felt that the Birmingham team was not as good as he imagined, and next season, the Birmingham team would definitely be very difficult.

Alex, McLeish felt that what he should have said had been finished, so he didn't speak again, nor did he urge Dongfang Chen, just sat quietly, drank coffee, and let Dongfang Chen think about it himself.

Dongfang Chen is indeed thinking about the future of the Birmingham team, according to Alex McLeish, the Birmingham team will definitely have a difficult season next season. Now that Birmingham's decorated manager Alex McLeish has also left, it's even more difficult for Birmingham.

Dongfang Chen frowned slightly, so what should the Birmingham team do next season? At this time, Dongfang Chen felt a little confused about the future.

At this time, Dongfang Chen suddenly turned his head to look at Alex McLeish, and Dongfang Chen suddenly asked, "Can I ask who the other party is?" ”

Yes, at this time, Dongfang Chen was a little curious, curious about who Alex McLeish's new owner was?

In fact, at this time, Dongfang Chen already had an answer in his heart, he just wanted to determine whether it was this team or not.

Alex MacLeish's eyes lit up, it seemed that Dongfang Chen was moved by his persuasion, he smiled and said: "Of course you can, in fact, you should have guessed that she is the Red Army Liverpool team!" ”

Dongfang Chen sighed in his heart: "Sure enough! ”

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, as can be seen from what Alex McLeish has just said, he has been emphasizing the limitations of small teams and the team's ability to attract stars, from which it can be seen that Alex McLeish's new club must be a big club, at least bigger than Birmingham, more attractive, and likely a big club.

Because now that Birmingham have won the League Cup and FA Cup double, some teams will not be able to attract Alex McLeish, it will be the big clubs and the big clubs.

And there is only one giant club that is most likely to attract Dongfang Chen, and that is the Red Army Liverpool.

At this time, Chelsea in the Premier League has just changed managers this season, and Carlo Ancelotti has achieved very good results, winning the Premier League title, Chelsea will definitely not change managers at this time, and Alex McLeish and Carlo Ancelotti are not comparable.

Arsenal and Manchester United, this is even more unlikely, Wenger and Ferguson can be secured, if it were not for the automatic resignation and retirement of these two people, it is unlikely that others will pry the positions of these two people.

Manchester City also brought in Italian coach Roberto Mancini in December last year, and they certainly won't change their manager.

If you exclude these, you'll be fine. And the Liverpool team has been making a lot of noise about the selection of a coach recently.

Rafael Benitez had already decided to leave Liverpool to take over from Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan, leaving the Liverpool manager's seat vacant.

And recently, there have been rumors about the scandal between the Liverpool team and Alex McLeish, so it is easy to guess, Dongfang Chen has already guessed it, but he still has to confirm it.

Alex McLeish immediately said: "Liverpool approached me a long time ago, I didn't make up my mind before, but recently I figured it out and made up my mind recently. ”

Dongfang Chen also understands that the Liverpool team must have started to contact Alex McLeish very early, otherwise, Alex McLeish would not have made a decision so quickly, after all, it has only been long since the league ended.

Seeing Dongfang Chen thinking, Alex McLeish continued: "I agree to join the Liverpool team, I made a request to Liverpool, that is, I must bring a henchman over, I am talking to them about you!" ”

Hearing Alex McLeish say this, Dongfang Chen was a little moved, and he was very grateful to Alex Macleish for his attention, very grateful.

But this didn't make Dongfang Chen immediately make up his mind to go to the Liverpool team with Alex McLeish. Moreover, Dongfang Chen didn't think about leaving the Birmingham team before, and now that he has this thing, Dongfang Chen is really difficult to choose.

Dongfang Chen's brows furrowed tightly for a while, and then he said to Alex McLeish: "Boss! It was so sudden, I thought...... I'm not in a position to make up my mind for a while, and I'll have to think about it before I can give you an answer. ”

Alex McLeish sighed silently, a little disappointed. But he could understand that this matter was indeed too sudden for Dongfang Chen.

Alex McLeish said, "Okay, you have a good test, think about contacting me, and hopefully we can continue to work together." ”
