Chapter XXIV
Lin Sen is not an arrogant person, but that doesn't mean he won't be arrogant.
chose to leave Manchester on the same day as Butragueno arrived in Manchester, although Linson could find a lot of high-sounding excuses, but the real intention did not need to be concealed at all, that is, he did not want to talk to the other party, of course, Butragueno would not run in vain, and it would be Pierce who was in charge of other affairs to "receive" him.
From the perspective of his position, Pierce is not rude to be at the same level as Butragueno, but he is in charge of everything, except for the transfer, so there is a meeting, but don't expect anything to come of it.
At such a meeting, Butragueno's reaction was first stunned, then a little annoyed, and in the end, helpless.
Stunned because if he hadn't really touched it, he didn't believe that the other party would have such an emotional move, and he was angry because the other party acted like this, which was not a professional move at all. And the final helplessness is because the other party has such a move, which is actually not difficult to understand. Butragueno was also not an arrogant person, or rather, anyone in this position should not appear too arrogant.
But in this transfer, it is clear that from Manchester City's point of view, Real Madrid are arrogant, and there is nothing to fight about.
In this regard, Putragno was helpless.
In fact, Real Madrid's delay in Bale's transfer until now is not that Real Madrid does not pay attention to Bale, on the contrary, on the contrary, Bale's name has always been the first place in Real Madrid's list of reinforcements this summer, because although Bale is not the first target handpicked by Ancelotti, he is the player that Florentino wants to win the most.
The reason why it has been delayed until now is because even if Real Madrid put Bale first at the beginning, this transfer will also be delayed until this time, because it is destined to be an impossible transfer to complete in a short period of time, compared to J Ronaldo and Kroos, although the difficulty is also not low. But it's much less difficult to operate than Bell.
Bale's transfer is not the player himself, but the club.
Whether it is J Ronaldo or Kroos, although their respective clubs are not willing to let go of their players, they are not too exclusive to Real Madrid's purchase, and Manchester City is different, Florentino has already spoken to Mubarak on the phone, but it is just business. The relationship between the two clubs of Real Madrid and Manchester City is definitely not as harmonious as the two speak. The reason for this is the continuous poaching in recent seasons.
To put it mildly, if a vote is launched among Manchester City fans for the most hated club at this time, it may be impossible to surpass the city's sworn rival Manchester United, but the second place, Real Madrid may be seated.
In this case, want to dig Bell, some kind of Cheng dù on. Even Manchester City FC is a little involuntary, because Manchester City fans definitely don't want to see their stars poached by Real Madrid again, which is understandable for the first time. The second time can be endured, but the third time? If Manchester City are still helpless, then for the fans. It's the club's incompetence.
It is also under this premise that this time, Real Madrid did not put the key to breaking the game on public relations at the beginning. Instead, they did what they do best: attacking their players.
So, next, the "arrogant" Real Madrid in Lin Sen's eyes was born-
Lin Sen, who returned to China with Boya, turned off his mobile phone and completely liberated himself from the chaos of transfer temporarily.
Of course, he is not completely hiding for the sake of avoidance, after returning to China, the one thing he did the most was to string relatives.
Although he had taken a year off before, because it was a trip to get married, Lin Sen received an invitation from Mubarak immediately after the trip, so Boya and most of his relatives had not yet met, and this time, the opportunity was just right.
By the time he finished stringing up his relatives, three days passed.
Then, when he turned on his phone again, the most on his missed call record was not from the club, but from Bale's agent, Barnett.
In the past three days, Barnett can be described as a year.
More than a month is enough time to handle any transfer, especially if the player has agreed, which Barnett certainly knows, which is why he can patiently wait for Real Madrid to play "Tai Chi". But now, when he finally waited for Real Madrid to make a move, Manchester City did not plan to accept it, and he once thought that the phone call to Guò had "opened up the joint" Lin Sen, who disappeared directly thousands of miles away.
Without that damn secret deal, Barnett could have been more comfortable with it, but right now, every day a transfer drags on means he's a little more dangerous. In this case, Barnett's mood is not difficult to understand.
When the number on Barnett's mobile phone appeared that he was so familiar with it that he couldn't be more familiar with it in the past few days, Barnett who answered the phone was not excited. ”Whatthef……“
Barnett was so angry that he completely forgot who he was up against, so that before he could fully utter that nasty word, there was already a beep on his phone.
Lin Sen, who was far away in China, seemed to be a little stunned with his mobile phone in his hand, but it quickly turned into a sneer, and then he pressed and held down one of the keyboards on his phone......
Shutdown.
Barnett was stunned for a long time.
He was momentarily carried away by anger, but he wasn't stupid, and he came back to his senses as soon as he got his swear word in his throat before he could say it completely.
Then, when he called the phone back again, he was depressed.
It's about to enter August.
Tang Hua's mood also became nervous.
On August 9, this is the start time of the League Two League, that is, there are less than ten days left before Tang Hua's first exam.
Tang Hua seems to have more confidence in his team, in the last four warm-up games, Cambridge United have won three and drawn one unbeaten, scored ten goals and conceded only one, and looks ready and ready to play just for the league to start, but the experience of the past few years at Manchester City has taught him never to take the results of the warm-up games seriously.
Just because you don't take the result seriously doesn't mean that the warm-up game is useless. The good news is that he seems to have really picked up a treasure, George and Colin, the two "newcomers" he originally intended to use to enrich the lineup, seem to have a faint tendency to compete for the main force in the warm-up game.
Of course, this good news is far from good enough to make him relax.
Tang Hua, who hesitated repeatedly, finally decided to call Lin Sen, not asking for help, but hoping that his conversation with Lin Sen could calm him down, but unfortunately every time he was prompted to turn off the phone.
Then, Tang Hua thought of the recent media scandal about Manchester City, so he had to give up.
For Manchester City, the former club, Tang Hua can't talk about any deep feelings, after Lin Sen left Manchester City, he also left, but this is the starting point for him to start his coaching career after all, and naturally it is impossible to be a stranger from now on. One thing that no one knows is that in Pellegrini's first season in charge of Manchester City, that is, last season, Tang Hua is still doing the same thing as before in every game, analyzing every game.
In Tang Hua's view, perhaps out of prejudice, he believes that Pellegrini's transformation of Manchester City, although it cannot be said that it is completely useless, but to be honest, it has had little effect, and some, even simply for the sake of transformation, the most obvious is the arrival of Negredo.
With Falcao, Sergio Aguero and Luis Suarez in the squad, Manuel Pellegrini still gave up on renewing Adriano's contract and instead spent a lot of money to bring in the Spanish striker.
It should be noted that Manchester City's entire forward line was introduced by Linsen, whether it is Suarez, who has transferred to Barcelona, or the goal scorer Qì Falcao and the attacking core Aguero.
In this case, Pellegrini made Negredo the main striker at the beginning of the season, and then it didn't work well, and he changed to 442, and Negredo was still one of the starters. However, in the end, throughout the season, Pellegrini still relied on the team left by Linsen. As for Negredo, he has become the last option in the striker, and there were even rumours that he was returning to La Liga this summer.
This summer, Lin Sen returned, and in Tang Hua's opinion, it was Pellegrini who was unlucky, and it was Pellegrini who was lucky.
At this time, Tang Hua once again forcibly focused his attention on the pile of boring numbers, so as to relax his nerves on the other side, which was also a relaxation method exclusive to him. At this time, his mobile phone rang.
Tang Hua took the phone and looked at it.
It was an unfamiliar number, however, when Tang Hua picked up the phone with some doubts, a familiar voice had already passed before he could speak.
"Nervous?"
This is Lin Sen's voice.
Lin Sen changed the phone, because he had turned off the original mobile phone, but Lin Sen would not forget the call that should be returned.
Tang Hua called him a total of five times, and for Lin Sen, who was familiar with Tang Hua's character, it was the first time he had seen such a thing. And it is not difficult to guess what can make Tang Hua act like this.
Lin Sen can vaguely remember his mood when he took over Atletico Madrid halfway through, although compared to himself at that time, the pressure faced by Tang Hua at the moment is simply pediatric, but after all, the two things cannot be compared, because Tang Hua does not have his plug-in, compared to him, who cheats everywhere, he is a regular player and a novice player.
