"Peter"

After meeting Stretford, Ye Qiu made a phone call to Peter Kenyon, who was far away in London.

"I was about to call you" Peter Kenyon on the other side of the phone obviously returned from a noisy place to a quiet place to talk to Ye Qiu on the phone, "I have already mentioned it to the boss, he hopes to do his best to take down Rooney." ”

Ye Qiu was not surprised by this result, for him, there was actually no problem in buying Rooney, Ribery only played in the professional league for one year, although the first season was very good, but whether he could continue the excellent performance of the first season in the second season, no one is sure, the introduction of a Rooney, one more protection.

The rookie wall, this is not something to be said casually, many players were amazing in their first season, and then it is not for nothing that they are gradually sluggish.

"I didn't see Rooney, but I saw that Stretford who was like a vampire," Ye Qiu shook his head.

Peter Kenyon on the other end of the phone was obviously laughing, "This is a guy who even Ferguson feels is a headache, and even the Sun, which is praised by many football people as having no bottom line, uses the titles of hooligan, liar and blackmailer to describe this outstanding agent, think for yourself." ”

Ye Qiu really couldn't think of any good way to deal with these people, except for a wry smile, he really wasn't good at dealing with these people, if he hadn't come to Portugal to watch the game and wanted to meet Rooney by the way, he wouldn't want to see Stretford, dealing with these guys, his hair was gray.

"What did Everton say?" Ye Qiu asked.

Peter Kenyon shook his head, "They are clearly using delaying tactics because they expected Manchester United to make a move, and Wayne Rooney will continue to appreciate during the Euros, if England can win the title."

"Fuck win the championship" Ye Qiu scolded angrily, "If England can win the championship this year, I will screw my head off and use it as a chair for you to sit on, this team obviously lacks the ability to control the midfield, I can't think of a reason why they can win the championship at all"

"Ahem, please respect me, I'm also English," Peter Kenyon reminded with a cough.

"I'm sorry" Ye Qiu also felt as if he had lost his temper, that damn Stretford wouldn't even let him see him.

"Actually, although they shouted a sky-high price of 50 million pounds, but in fact, no one believes this, even themselves, I think the most important thing now is to confirm this transfer as soon as possible." Peter Kenyon didn't pursue it either.

After Ye Qiu sighed twice, he thought for a while, "Then don't rub shoulders with Everton, just be ruthless, pay in cash, 35 million euros, and kill in seconds" Sometimes, the negotiation of transfer fees is a tug-of-war between you and me, but often many times, the longer you talk, the higher the transfer price.

If Ferguson had finalized Ronaldinho earlier, it would have been a matter of several million euros, and if they had done Rooney earlier, it would have been estimated to be about 10UU million pounds, but because of friction, Rooney's price is getting higher and higher.

Ye Qiu knows very well the value of Rooney, the price of Rooney after Manchester United in the previous life was about 37UU million euros, and it was paid off in a year, which was actually not very satisfactory to Everton, because it was equivalent to installment payment, the player transfer passed, and Manchester United still had the possibility of delaying the payment in the future.

Therefore, relatively speaking, if Chelsea directly opens cash, the competitive advantage is still obvious.

And now Chelsea has a Champions League and Premier League title in hand, and this season is also the favorite team to win the Champions League and the Premier League again, on the other hand, Manchester United, as a traditional giant, Manchester United's performance last season was indeed unsatisfactory, so in comparison, Chelsea did not suffer at all.

"It's still the old rule, before the training camp?" Peter Kenyon already knew Ye Qiu's habits well.

"Yes," Ye Qiu nodded.

"Well, I'll talk to Everton again and give you an answer as soon as I can," Peter Kenyon said.

As it turned out, England did not have the last laugh.

On the second day of Ye Qiu's arrival in Portugal, England still stopped at the feet of Portugal and was unfortunately eliminated from the European Cup.

Christian Eriksen's side have played a very different style in this European Championship, holding high the banner of attacking football, but it has also exposed the flaws and inadequacies of the England midfield's control of the field.

Although Eriksen's England team seems to be playing very unrestrained now, in fact, it is still difficult to hide his slightly conservative mentality in his bones, playing France in the first round of the group, Tengkart described the scene situation to Ye Qiu is that England played too conservatively after taking the lead, shrunk too much, and directly led to a reversal by France.

Of course, England's defensive attention is indeed problematic when conceding goals in the final stages, but in the final analysis, it is caused by the conservatism of the tactical mentality, which gives the players a psychological hint that it is good to end the game as soon as possible and get three points as soon as possible.

On the one hand, you have to play aggressively, and on the other hand, you have to play conservatively, and it's really hard to have the best of both worlds.

There is also the problem, England's midfield seems to be very strong, but in fact there are many problems, David Beckham has an outstanding long ball arrangement, Sneijder and Frank Lampard excellent ability to score from the back, and in this game Eriksen dragged Lampard back and played in the back to intercept, which clearly exposed the coexistence problem between Lampard and Gerrard.

Rooney's route is actually to drop back to the midfield to get the ball, although he looks like a striker, but in fact he is a striker, and this characteristic was very good in the group stage, but when Rooney went off injured, England clearly lost control at this point.

Scolari is an old fox and obviously sees through this, so on the one hand, Deco firmly grasped the control of the midfield and possession of the ball, and on the other hand, he replaced Rui Costa to further strengthen the control of the midfield, which directly caused Portugal to score two goals in a row.

It can be said that by this moment, England was dead, even if Lampard equalized later, but in the penalty shoot-out, England obviously lost that breath, and the goalkeeper problem has always been England's weakness.

Ye Qiu watched this game live, and he felt that the reason why Eriksen lost was that he actually made two fatal mistakes, one was long-term and the other was short-term.

The so-called long-term is because he did not formulate a perfect offensive routine for England, too monotonous, which is the problem of offensive weakness exposed by England after playing offensive football, goals often do not represent anything, multi-routine ball advancement is the core of real offensive football, and Eriksen, a good defensive coach, obviously did not get this done.

The short-term problem was that after the goal lead in the game, Wayne Rooney went off injured and Eriksen let the midfielder retreat early to the edge of the box and give up all of his 30-metre area to the opposition, and Portugal's possession was basically carried out in this area.

The core of the defense is the 30-meter area, because in 30-meter possession, every pass of the opponent has the potential to turn into the last pass, and it is possible to create a killing chance, and even if most of the time, Portugal's chances of creating a killing chance are not excellent, but Scolari immediately replaced a most important passer, Rui Costa.

It's a logical result, I've been in possession in the 30-metre area, but I haven't created many chances, so I'm going to switch to a player who is good at making lethal passes in this area.

The mystery and fun of tactics lies in the fact that any manager must not only have a long-term strategic vision, but also have the on-the-spot adaptability and agility to face the current situation.

After watching the England game, Ye Qiu couldn't help but reflect on what he had been brewing for a long time, Chelsea's tactics this season, and he felt more and more that Rooney might be a very good candidate on the right side, who could form a strong competitiveness with Ribery and urge the Frenchman to continue to improve.

How so?

Ye Qiu wants to play 3I this season, but in fact, he can't say that it is 3I, because he wants to let the two left and right wingers attack the opponent's defensive combination more, that is, the two ribs, because there is Drogba in front of him to contain and suppress the opponent's two central defenders, so that unless the opponent is willing to use two backs to defend, otherwise, one side of the two ribs will always show a flaw.

And Ye Qiu's tactic is to use players such as Ronaldinho, Ribery or Rooney who are super capable and very good at fighting alone to attack the opponent's two ribs, and tear apart the defense line through the echoes of the two rib attacking players.

Ronaldinho is very good at cutting inside on the left rib, breaking through and passing diagonally to his teammate on the right rib, which is also a set of attacking routines that Chelsea was very good at last season, if the right rib is added this season, it will inevitably bring more painful blows to the opponent, and Chelsea's attack will also improve by leaps and bounds.

However, Ye Qiu also has balance considerations, so Frank Lampard and Drogba are very important at the tactical level, they are the first link in the team's defensive system, plus Ribery, or Rooney, who is willing to fight, Chelsea's entire central midfield pressure may be reduced compared to last season, but there will be a huge improvement in attack.

Ye Qiu's tactics last season were to seek stability, so he used the combination of Davis and Makelelele, but this season his team has been sharpened, and if he wants to improve and go further, he must win one, almost certainly Davis.

With such a huge squad and bench thickness at present, and such a rich offensive routine, as long as the team's entire offensive and defensive system is polished, Ye Qiu is fully confident that he can beat all opponents again.

Of course, this is also affected by various factors such as player injuries and the degree of adaptation after tactical adjustments.

But Ye Qiu is now ambitious, and wants to rely on this set of lineups and tactics to reach the top of Europe for the third time

The final result of the European Cup was not too surprising, like Ye Qiu's previous life, Rehhagel's Greece unexpectedly defeated all opponents, won the first European Cup championship in the history of Greece, staged a dark horse miracle that was blacker than Denmark that year, and won the admiration of the whole world.

Otto the Great Rehhagel, the German coach who led Kaiserslautern to the miracle of promotion to victory, is now leading the Greeks once again, creating a mythical miracle with a watertight cohesive defense and iron-clad tactical discipline.

This is something that no one could have imagined before the game, and after the game, everyone had a very strong interest in Rehhagel's Greece, and many people began to find that Rehhagel's tactics are to some extent similar to Ye Qiu, and even Rehhagel himself admitted that he did get some inspiration from Ye Qiu's Ajax and Chelsea.

The German coach's sincere explanation to the media made Ye Qiu feel quite embarrassed, because he is still studying Rehhagel's overall football concept through the study house of the godfather's cultivation system, but he didn't expect that Rehhagel would learn things from him in turn, who is the cause and who is the effect?

However, almost all the media believe that Ye Qiu is the cause.

The reason is very simple, almost all the media believe that the Champions League is gradually becoming the vane of football tactics in the world, and Ye Qiu, who has led the team to the top of Europe in the past two years, undoubtedly represents the vane.

Overall football, meticulous teamwork, and defensive system from front to back are the basis of Ye Qiu's tactics, and they have all been verified in Rehhagel's body, so when the European Cup is over, for a while, when the whole world discusses football, we must talk about Ye Qiu, Rehhagel, and overall football.

In the best team of the European Championship, Chelsea, as the new European champions, encountered embarrassment and doubts, because they only had Frank Lampard selected, while Manchester United had Cristiano Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy, Liverpool had Barosh selected, and Arsenal was even more embarrassed, no one was selected for the best team.

However, this list clearly does not tell the story, such as the Czech Republic's Petr Cech and Greece's Nikoporidis, but in fact, if you look at the situation as a whole, Sweden's Isaksson is the most consistent goalkeeper, and the current Swedish Premier League goalkeeper has attracted the attention of many of Europe's top league teams.

With the end of the European Championship, the transfer smoke of Europe's four major leagues has also begun to thicken, and the major giants have also sounded the clarion call for the outstanding performance of the European Cup, including several popular players such as Baros and Rooney.

The first to ignite a wave of Premier League transfers was Newcastle, with the Magpies announcing the signing of Kluivert from Barcelona, a move clearly aimed at strengthening the team's forward line, while Arsenal announced the arrival of midfielder Flamini from Marseille but let go of striker Kanu, who left for West Bromwich Albion.

Arsene Wenger's transfer strategy is clearly to further rejuvenate the squad, as is Manchester United.

Alex Ferguson announced the arrival of young player Gerard Pique from Barcelona and then the talented striker Rossi from Parma in Serie A, the talented striker who has scored 133 goals in 14 games for Parma's youth team is known as Italy's new Paulo Rossi, and his performances for the Italian national team at all levels have also been very impressive.

In addition, Leeds United, which has been relegated, has become the target of major teams in the Premier League, and players in this team, including Alan Smith and Viduka, have been poached and seduced by major teams such as Manchester United.

There is a saying that is true, the wall is down, everyone pushes the drum, and even West Ham United, who have long been relegated, will not escape the doom, and the main midfielder Michael Carrick has switched to Tottenham Hotspur in north London.

Also making a big deal is Liverpool, with the departure of coach Houllier, Rafael Benitez from Valencia is in charge of Anfield Stadium, and his arrival has also made Liverpool panic, golden boy Owen may switch to Real Madrid, Daniel Murphy also has to vote for another team, and the arrival of Benitez has also made Liverpool's reinforcements biased towards Spain, including Aimar, Luis Garcia and other players have been involved with the Reds.

At the same time that the main Premier League opponents have sounded the horn of the arms race, Chelsea's reinforcements have not made much movement, Ye Qiu returned to London after the European Cup, and the media also knew that Ye Qiu had returned, but Chelsea did not have much movement, so far, it has only announced that it has rejected Paris Saint-Germain's proposal to buy out Michael Essien and recall the Ghana midfielder.

Ye Qiu commented on the official website announcing the return of Michael Essien, believing that Michael Essien will become an important member of the team, and he has enough quality and potential to compete for a place in Chelsea's midfield.

At the same time, there is a lot of media in the transfer market that Chelsea have made a transfer offer of up to 350,000 euros for Everton's golden boy Wayne Rooney, and if Everton agrees, Rooney will become the most expensive young player after Saviola.

This piece of news quickly attracted the attention of the whole world, because all the fans were watching whether Chelsea will continue to make big signings this summer like last season, and whether Wayne Rooney will be one of them?

In an interview with The Times, Ye Qiu said that Chelsea will no longer blindly make large-scale recruitments, and will only strengthen appropriately in several weak positions in the team.

'We've got a really good group of players, a group of talented potential rookies and I don't think we need to continue to make big moves, so all the talk about Chelsea bringing in another superstar is unfounded.'

Ye Qiu's statement is also tantamount to drawing an end to the rumors that Chelsea have brought in superstars, including Shevchenko.

And he knew very well in his heart that this piece of news must have been leaked by Everton or Rooney's agent, and the meaning was also obvious, that is, to attract as many potential buyers as possible, and Ye Qiu's coping strategy was to deny it to the outside world and not move.

With Chelsea's denial, many people thought that this was Everton's unilateral hype, and the price of 35UU million euros was indeed expensive. One Rooney costs 35UU million?

Manchester United also seem to have been affected and continue to hold their ground, using the introduction of Rossi and Alan Smith to create pressure.

Ferguson also knew very well that such a blockbuster transfer by Rooney would not be able to be completed overnight, and it would be a long-term battle, so he was not in a hurry, but set his sights on the reinforcement of the left-back he had always wanted to strengthen.

But at this time, Chelsea suddenly held a press conference to announce the transfer results and said that the summer transfer door was closed
