Dina was the only team member who followed Lin Sen on a "publicly-funded tour" to South Africa.

Ariel has no work needs, and she doesn't like this kind of "travel" in the nature of work, while Tang Hua needs to participate in coach training.

Coming to Manchester City, there are still not many people who can talk to Lin Sen, and the communication with assistant coach Kidd is more of a topic at the football level, whether it is age or interest, it is determined that the two sides cannot hit it off at first sight and put their hearts together, so, in the end, from Madrid to Malaga to Manchester, after such a big circle, the person who knows Linsen's mind the most is Dina.

Dina quickly noticed Lin Sen's absent-mindedness, although Lin Sen still looked relaxed on the surface, and he also had a reason to relax, Manchester City won the two warm-up games, although such warm-up games could not be done, but no one would refuse to win, after asking Lin Sen, Dina knew what was going on.

Manchester United intervened in Bale's transfer, which was indeed unexpected by Linson.

In this regard, there is no need to make a fool of yourself, it is true that Manchester United are more attractive to players than Manchester City, especially since there is a little story between Ferguson and Bale that makes Manchester United's involvement even more troublesome.

The so-called derby has never been confined to the stadium. The transfer market is also a place where derbies are often staged, last season, Manchester United chased Berbatov for a whole summer, but Manchester City suddenly intervened at the last moment, and as soon as he shot, the price was accepted by Tottenham, Manchester City gave Berbatov a price of 35 million, and the transfer fee between Tottenham and Manchester United for a whole summer was only 28 million, and the final decision on this transfer was the player's personal wishes, Berbatov was not interested in Manchester City. It's just that due to Manchester City's intervention, Manchester United finally had to increase the offer, and the Bulgarian's transfer fee of 30 million also set a record for Manchester United.

So, the old lord suddenly shot Bell. Actually, it's not surprising at all. It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come, and this sentence will never be outdated. It's just that Lin Sen was a little unlucky and encountered an unwarranted disaster.

What are you going to do? Abandon?

Although Dina is only an individual coach, this does not mean that she does not know anything about the transfer market, after Manchester United intervened, she just thought about it carefully to know the trouble, but she obviously did not know the position of Bale in Linsen's heart, so in her opinion, since the trouble. Why don't you change your target as soon as possible, it's already been changed once anyway.

Lin Sen shook his head in silence. Abandon? This is of course an easy choice, and it is in line with Marwood's wishes, but it is not so easy to find a replacement of the same level.

In fact, this matter is troublesome to operate, but it is not a problem for Manchester City to deal with.

The most immediate response is to continue to increase the offer, and at the moment the attitude of the Spurs club is still unclear, and it is clear that they are still weighing the offers of Manchester City and Manchester United, choosing to accept one and reject the other. Or either accept or reject both, these are all possible. However, since it is a trade-off, it also reflects on the side that the gap between the quotations on the two sides is not large, so. If Manchester City chooses to increase the offer at this time, it is very likely that Tottenham will tilt their choice towards Manchester City's side and thus reject Manchester United.

In that case, the ball was kicked to Ferguson's side. Either you'll have to give up, or you'll have to match City to keep raising the offer.

If the transfer falls into such a routine, then. For Manchester City, they just spend a little more money, Linson knows that Ferguson admires Bale, but he doesn't think Ferguson will spend 40 million on Bale at this time.

So, the crux of the matter, as with Berbatov's transfer last year, is the attitude of the players. Bale's first choice was definitely Manchester United, but City were not completely out of chance, for the same reasons as when he chose Tottenham over Manchester United. Linson can guarantee Bale's appearance, but Ferguson may not, even if Bale is more mature.

And this is also the main reason why Linson is absent-minded at the moment, this cheating trip to South Africa will make him fall behind Ferguson in this regard, if Ferguson convinces Bale before he returns to the UK, then everything is really over.

When he heard Lin Sen express his worries, he didn't expect Dina to look at him with strange eyes, and then gave him a simple advice.

On 19 July, David Silva landed in Manchester, where at noon he went through a medical examination arranged by the Manchester City side, and in the afternoon, the official website of Manchester City announced the signing of the former Valencia star.

"I enjoyed the five years I spent in Valencia, they discovered and nurtured me, and Valencia will always be in my heart. I'm delighted to be joining Manchester City, one of the best teams in the Premier League, with a really great plan, it's a new challenge, the Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world and I want to be successful at Manchester City and win the title. Forest? I haven't spoken to him on the phone yet, but we met when we were in Spain, last year Malaga was one of the best teams in La Liga, Lin has proven that he is a good coach and I think we will be very happy to work together. David Silva, who was interviewed by the Manchester Evening News, had a big smile on his face.

David Silva's words are somewhat insincere, because the current Manchester City is far from being the best team in the Premier League, but just joined, it is reasonable to tout the new owner, Manchester City may not be as good as Real Madrid Barcelona, who has had a scandal with him before, but in terms of prospects, it is far from Valencia, which claims to compete for the championship every year but discusses with other teams every summer how to sell its own stars, not to mention, the weekly salary of 120,000 pounds is four times that of his time in Valencia.

On the other hand, after signing David Silva, Espanyol's value of 30 million also makes Manchester City's current investment in the transfer market reach an astonishing 90 million, plus the transfer of Bale, which has been confirmed, there is no doubt that Manchester City's investment will exceed 100 million this summer. The arrival of the Spaniard has made all Manchester City fans rejoice, and compared to the other stars who have already won this summer, in their minds, David Silva is the real deal comparable to last year's Robinho transfer, and his arrival has also diluted their attention to Bale's transfer in recent days.

After joining Manchester City. David Silva will not be travelling to South Africa due to the team's warm-up game in South Africa at this time, and after taking care of his personal matters, he will return to Manchester to await the team's return.

On July 20, a secret club on the outskirts of London.

Bale and his agent were seated in front of the two of them, not Alex Ferguson, but someone who should have been far away on the continent at this time: Manchester City manager Linsen.

It is against the law to have private contact with a player without reaching an agreement with the club.

However, Lin Sen also knows that this ban is actually ignored many times. Because it's hard to get the evidence, like Mourinho's affair with Ashley Cole, which was revealed, is just a very isolated case, and it has to do with the fact that Chelsea and Mourinho were too strong at the time.

Regarding Bale's transfer, Lin Sen knew that Ferguson would definitely contact Bale, but in South Africa, he thought that he could only wait until the end of his trip to South Africa to return to the UK, but he didn't expect Dina to wake up to him with a word: Isn't it very simple, you can also go back to the UK.

Yes, who dictates that they have to stay in South Africa and wait?

Lin Sen, who came back to his senses, was a little embarrassed. But he soon discovered that it was a really good idea. Because Lin Sen returned to England at this time, it seemed that he was forced by the form, but for Bell. This is not a sign of sincerity.

In fact, it was because Linson personally returned to the UK from South Africa that Bale's agent, Barnett, agreed to arrange the meeting.

And for this meeting, Bell was not cold. As Lin Sen thinks, if there is only one choice between Manchester City and Manchester United, it is undoubtedly Manchester United. What's more, he was not on Tottenham's transfer list in the first place, and he himself did not think of leaving, although he was in trouble last season, but just as he did not expect Manchester City to suddenly be interested in him, he did not expect Linson to leave the team at this time and rush back to the United Kingdom, just to see himself.

It's not flattering, but for Lin Sen's attention to himself, Bell has no reason to turn it away, and what surprised Bell a little was Lin Sen's directness after meeting.

'Gareth, I know Sir Alex Ferguson has met you and he may have made some promises to you, but trust me, Manchester City is the better option for you. This is Lin Sen's opening remarks.

'I'm not doubting Ferguson's commitment, but commitment doesn't change all the facts. I'm sure you understand that, because you've turned down Manchester United, and no matter how good the blueprint is, if you can't be one of them, it's just a castle in the air. I don't know if Ferguson promises you the present or the future, but I can tell you what I can promise you, which is that if you choose Manchester City, then the whole wing is yours, not next season, not next season, this season! ”

"You don't need to question me at all, I didn't come back from South Africa to lie to you. Because Manchester City is the team that is really interested in you this summer, it was not Alex Ferguson who made an offer to you, it was me, and it was not Ferguson who thought you were worth 25 million, but me. With all due respect, I'm sure you've heard about the transfer of your former team-mate Dimitar Berbatov, and frankly, I don't think Ferguson really wants to bring you in, he's just reluctant to let you come to Manchester City. ”

……

Lin Sen said a lot, he felt that he didn't say so much to Adriano, but in fact, he didn't need to say so much, because in Bell's ears, most of Lin Sen's so many words, Ferguson had said when he met him before, to be honest, in terms of sensationalism, Lin Sen was far worse than Ferguson.

However, the prescient Lin Sen was very "lucky" to say a sentence, among so many words that Lin Sen and Ferguson said, only this sentence Ferguson did not mention, but it was precisely this sentence that really moved Bell.

A whole side road is yours!

Bale now plays as a left wing-back, and although he occasionally plays as a full-back, his main position is still left wing-back, and almost no one sees him as a winger, which is a matter of preconceived notions. But in Linson's words, Bale is not a defender, he is certainly not a defender, defense is not his job, offense is what he does best. (To be continued......)
