Bridge doesn't want to leave Manchester City.

He's not the highest-paid player at City, and he knows he's not the most important player at City, but he loves it. It's understandable that the salary is not the highest, but Manchester City have always been stingy with salaries, not the most important, but in the past year, Bridge's head has been crowned with several accolades, and of course, the most important thing is that there are Bridge's most trusted teammates.

During that time at Friends and Wife's Gate, in that duel with Terry, which was known as a "direct confrontation between men", although both were defenders, it was Bridge's teammates who helped him breathe a sigh of relief.

But not wanting to leave doesn't mean you refuse to leave.

Bridge is not willing to be a drag on the club, and even if Linson doesn't say anything about Arsenal's away game, he knows it will be his last chance to prove himself. Players can be confident in their own ability, but no one can be confident in their form, because even Messi Ronaldo has times when he is not in good shape, and for players over 30 years old, the state is especially elusive.

After being replaced by Lin Sen, Bridge's head was interpreted by the media as a variety of meanings, but in fact it was just his helplessness about his state.

Before the first offer from the club that did not involve Bridge, Linson actually had an interview with Bridge, just like Linson's well-known style for the players, Linsen, who has always been straightforward with the players, did not play brain games such as "you know" with Bridge, and he bluntly told Bridges that Bridges could stay and compete for his position, but he will likely be Linson's third choice at left-back.

Unlike Azpilicueta, who can play on both wings, Bridge's position is still too single, although he can also be pushed to the left midfield, but Linson has even more options in the left midfield position, so although the choice is in the hands of Bridge, in fact. He doesn't really have many options.

Staying, with a year and a half left on the contract, of course, he can continue to "mix", but leaving is the right choice to extend his career.

Bridge eventually chose to respect the club's decision, and then in the second offer, Manchester City also added him to the offer for Baines, and in order to try not to affect Bridge's mentality, the proposed transfer proposal was not to treat Bridge as part of Baines, but as another transfer.

On January 15, Manchester City's scandal with Sergio Aguero was still flying. But Baines' transfer is quietly close to being completed. In the 23rd round of the English Premier League on the same day, Manchester City faced the league vice-captain Wolves at home, and Bridge, who did not have any injuries, did not appear in the game squad for the first time, Manchester City did not give any explanation for this, but how could Bridge's whereabouts "escape" the eyes of the English media, and soon, the "Sun" exposed Bridge's whereabouts: Liverpool.

Liverpool have two teams, Liverpool, who have just changed their manager, and Everton, who have a poor record, but Liverpool, who are clearly not short of left-backs, will not be Bridge's next home. Then, Everton, the main left-back and Manchester City who have always had scandals, is naturally the only possibility.

After a 4-3 win at home to Wolves, Linson, who was asked about Bridges and Baines after the game, was no longer tight-lipped about the transfer. Instead, he singled out the two transfers that have been largely finalised: yes, we're interested in Bynes. Bridge? He's a good player, but he's not at his best and we had a face-to-face and honest conversation. I believe he can make the right choice.

Sure enough, the next day, Everton were the first to announce their first deal of the winter on their official website: Manchester City defender Bridge joined the team on loan plus a conditional mandatory buyout. Followed by. In the evening of the same day, Manchester City announced the departure of Bridges on their official website at the same time as the signing of Baines, and then, in accordance with international practice, Manchester City did not disclose the transfer fee involved in the deal.

On January 18, due to the previous draw with Leicester City, Manchester City had to play another rematch with the other side, the only consolation is because the last time was away, and this time the rematch was at home, in the pre-match press conference, sitting next to Linson was the new Manchester City Baines.

Baines is in one of the most energetic moments of his life, and the age of 26 is considered the best age for a professional footballer and undoubtedly the best age to enter the big club. Because the players who land in the giants at this age are basically impossible to use as a reserve, they can only be immediate combat power, of course, as for what role to play in the team, it depends on the ability of the player.

Baines was pretty sure he was at least capable of competing for the main opportunity, and he was immediately given the opportunity to prove himself.

Against Leicester, Bynes started the game and he delivered a satisfactory answer, with two of City's four goals, one direct and one indirect, making it 4-2 to make it to the last 32 of the FA Cup.

After Baines, Linson began to turn his attention to Spain, and Aguero, who was only "testing the waters", will officially enter the stage of Manchester City's operational preparations.

Some ideas are not there, but once they appear, they are difficult to contain, and many times, people call them dreams, but more often than not, it may be more appropriate to call them desires.

Sergio Aguero has such a desire.

For a player, this desire is called ambition or ambition, in short, not everyone can accept it. But Aguero is still thinking about it very seriously, and it seems increasingly difficult to control himself from thinking about it.

It all began, of course, with the interest from England.

The reason why it is difficult for Aguero to take it as an irresponsible speculation of unscrupulous media is that an "acquaintance" person personally confirmed this interest.

Lin Sen and Aguero are no strangers, the two have a certain friendship in Atletico Madrid, although when Lin Sen left Atletico Madrid, Aguero did not use his identity to exert some beneficial influence on Lin Sen, but that is not an obligation after all, no matter how it will make Lin Sen care about this, and realistically speaking, Lin Sen may be one of the reasons why Aguero will be interested in Manchester City, but it is definitely not the whole reason.

From the most practical salary to the most high-sounding pursuit, no matter how angry Atletico Madrid fans are at Aguero's "disloyalty" are willing to admit it, the current Atletico Madrid and Manchester City are not at the same level. Interestingly, in the last round, Atletico Madrid lost 1-4 away to promoted El Helles, and Aguero was substituted in the 78th minute due to injury, but his departure was not the reason for Atletico's heavy defeat, because before he left, Atletico Madrid was already 0-4 behind, but in the just-concluded new round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid, without Aguero, defeated Mallorca 3-0 at home......

Of course, this can't just say that Aguero is a cancer of Atletico Madrid, but at this special time, there is obviously no shortage of people with some intentions to do some interpretations with ulterior motives, especially Atletico Madrid's fans are not easy to provoke-

When Lin Sen read in the newspaper that Aguero was booed by Atletico fans for refusing to "pledge" allegiance to Atletico Madrid, Lin Sen only shrugged his shoulders, for him who had even been attacked at his residence back then, such a protest was simply pediatric. However, it is precisely this kind of pediatrics that can often become the fuse of some real earthquakes.

Of course, Linson didn't expect Aguero to have a showdown with Atletico Madrid now, and most of the seismic transfers will have to go through a thunderous process, just like the transfer of Torres in the summer. By the winter, Chelsea had clearly stepped up their attacking campaign against Torres, and it was said that Chelsea owner Abou had written a blank cheque, which is an exaggeration, of course, but it was clear that Chelsea were already aiming for Torres.

It is also said that Liverpool's new boss Dalgeshley is already looking for a replacement for Torres, and Newcastle's homegrown striker Carroll is said to have become a major target for the Reds, not just Carroll, Liverpool are also targeting a name that Linson did not expect.

Balotelli.

Due to Linson's interference, Suarez, who should have been one of Torres' replacements, failed to appear in Liverpool's list, and also due to Linsen's interference, Balotelli, who was supposed to come to Manchester City from a prodigy to the city "Ba God", failed to come to Manchester City, although one of Balotelli's stops in memory is indeed Liverpool, but who would have thought that Balotelli would become Suarez's "replacement" at this time?

Whether Balotelli can succeed in Liverpool, Linson does not know, but if there is no deviation in memory, whether it is Torres or Carroll, I am afraid it is destined to be a lose-lose transfer, Torres has since become an "iron guard", and Carroll has also become a typical representative of England's household register.

Unlike Chelsea and Liverpool, both Manchester United and Arsenal have chosen to invest in the future at this time, and prudently. The old gentleman signed the young goalkeeper Lindegaard from Al Sund, Norway for 3.5 million, and Wenger's eyes jumped out of Europe, aiming at the Japanese league he once coached, Ryo Miyagichi, the Chukyo University Club affiliated to Chukyo University in Japan, the way? Gratis.

In contrast, the blockbuster deal has not yet happened, and the small investment cannot be put on the table for the time being, Manchester City, which has spent 15 million to bring in Baines, has become the club with the largest investment in the Premier League's winter transfer at the moment, of course, Linsen is not worried about how long Manchester City's hat will be worn.

On January 23, in the 24th round of the English Premier League, leaders Manchester City suffered a heavy blow, they lost 0-1 away to Aston Villa, and the goal was scored by an England international who Marwood wanted to bring in several times but was vetoed by Linson.
