The transfer news of Karachi was released by Wansheng first, and it took half a day before the official Derby County official website released the news.

The media close to Derby County got the news as soon as possible, and half a day was enough time for them to do a lot of things, and soon the media in the Derby County area also got the news, but when many of the hostile media in Derby County received the news, the fans already knew the news, and they were a bit 'outdated' when they reported it, which made them secretly hate, they naturally knew what the reason was, and they secretly hated Wansheng.

Wan Shengcai doesn't care about the attitude of the hostile media, you are all hostile media, and you still ask to be the first to get the news?

Think too much!

After the news was released on the official Derby County website, almost all media fans also knew the news, and then a lot of comments about the transfer came to their heads, and the general comment in the media was, "The veteran Carraci may be okay, but he is certainly not as good as Oakes." ”

There is no doubt about Carachi's ability, after all, he is Perugia's No. 1 goalkeeper, and his ability must still be there, but compared to Oakes, the English media thinks that Oakes is stronger, and Oakes is also younger, he is four years younger than Carraci, which means that Oakes's peak state as a goalkeeper can be maintained for a long time, what about Karachi? Maybe three years would be good, which is one of the reasons why Karachi is not worth much.

Wansheng ignored the comments of these media.

Ability or something, no one can see better than him, Karachi is stronger than Oakes, this is certain. The English media have always favoured their own players. There is also some discrimination against non-European players, that's no doubt about that, so it doesn't matter what they say at all.

But in fact. In the eyes of neutral media, Karachi is still capable, and more importantly, Karachi has proven itself in the top flight, while Oakes has not. Karachi also has an advantage in this regard, with Karachi here. Derby County won't have to worry about the goalkeeper position for at least three years, as Karachi's table will be stable if nothing else.

Goalkeeper, stability is the most important.

Some of the goalkeepers are nerve knives, and the recurring table xiàn is quite good. However, there will also be a lot of small mistakes in the unstable dìng, which is simply fatal in some games, such a player may have good ability, but the unstable dìng's state can also be a headache.

Aside from the goalkeeper discussion, the media's doubts about Derby County are mainly up front.

The goalkeeper problem has been narrowly solved with the arrival of Karachi, but what about the striker? Gary Cahill is gone, Pesquisollido is on a free transfer, and there are only two players left in the Derby County striker. One is Burton Reiter and the other is Ian Taylor, Reiter's strength has been questioned. Last season, he didn't perform well, but it was League One after all, and when he played against a Premier League team in the FA Cup, LITE didn't have a good performance, so the media still questioned LETT's ability.

"This young man should probably exercise for another two years."

This is a common view.

The main problem with Reiter is that he is too young, after all, he has only played one season in League One. The strength is not too outstanding, and there is very little experience. There are still doubts about what he will do when he enters the Premier League, and Ian Taylor has signed a one-year contract extension with the team, but he is really old, and his form and strength cannot be guaranteed, and at this moment the Derby County forward line seems to be empty.

'Derby need at least two strikers to do so. Some football commentators have argued, "But so far they haven't found anything in the transfer market. ”

There is no need for media reminders, of course Wansheng knows about this situation.

But the European Cup is not over, it is not easy to buy good players, many players in Europe who participate in the European Cup, the strength is good, but if you want to talk about their transfer, you can only do it after the European Cup, and those players who did not participate in the European Cup, it is not easy to find the strength, Wansheng has been ready to buy a strong striker with a large transfer fee after the European Cup.

With Oakes' £5.5 million, plus Cahill's £9.2 million, minus the cost necessary to supplement other positions, the team can use at least £5 million or more to buy a quality striker, which is really quite a lot of money, especially for Derby County, a player worth more than £10 million may be better, but that kind of big-name star will not choose Derby County, so more than £5 million is enough.

During this period, many media eyes were still focused on the European Championship.

The group stage of the European Championship has come to an end, with England and France progressing from Group B to the quarter-finals, but with a second defeat to France in the group stage, they can only qualify as group runners, against Group A hosts Portugal.

England manager Christian Eriksen was triumphant in his team's big win over Switzerland, but after the defeat to France, he didn't talk much and avoided the gamble against Wansheng, and it seems that he also sensed that the team may not be guaranteed to reach the last four, just because England lost to France and faced Portugal in the quarter-finals.

Portugal is still very strong as the host.

In terms of overall strength, if you divide the level, they are between the world-class and the second-rate, and they also have many stars, such as many well-known Luis Figo, new star C-Ronaldo, veteran Rui Costa, etc., but the problem in Portugal is that the famous stars are very famous, but the average players play in their own leagues, and there is no fame at all, that is to say, the difference in the strength of their players in various positions is still very large, and their games rely more on individual stars, such as Luis Figo, C-Ronaldo et al. play.

In contrast, England's squad with big stars on all three fronts is much stronger.

However, Portugal is the host, as the host team is often difficult to deal with, China has an old saying, "the time, the place, the people", as the host team, often three points will be occupied, so even if the overall strength of England is stronger than Portugal. But it won't be easy to beat Portugal.

This is also confirmed by the odds offered by European bookmakers for both teams, with Portugal winning slightly more but not much higher.

Wan Sheng cares about this game. The most important reason is the bet with Eriksen, and the other reason is ......

"Wansheng, which team to buy in this game?"

The day before the game, Kevin Tagore asked with interest.

In other words, gambling is indeed very attractive, especially gambling with a winning rate of more than 90%, which is even more addictive. Kevin Tagore has been obsessed with this lately, since the pair made a big bet together to buy Greece to win the European Championship. These days, Kevin Tagore comes to ask Wan Sheng for almost every game, and then suppresses every game, but Wan Sheng definitely doesn't remember the victory or defeat of the specific game at that time, and can only estimate it according to the way he remembers. For example, he knows that Greece, Portugal and other teams can qualify from the group, so he can roughly estimate the outcome of the outcome, the odds of winning or losing alone are not high, and pressing 1,000 pounds can only be doubled or tripled at most, but Kevin Tagore is happy to do it.

"I made a bet with the Swede, and naturally Portugal would knock out England." "I think it's likely that England will lose the penalty shoot-out in the end. ”

In this game, Wan Sheng can still be analyzed clearly by memory.

England have fallen on penalties on several occasions on the world stage, and Euro 2004 was definitely no exception. Even Wan Sheng clearly remembered that it was Beckham who missed a penalty and lost, but he didn't remember whether England was against Greece or Portugal at that time, but England lost on penalties in the end. That's enough.

"I believe in you!"

Kevin Tagore got the answer and immediately went to turn on the computer to press.

He is still very confident in Wansheng, because Wansheng has actually proved his ability to estimate the results in the group stage before, but Wansheng is not happy when he sees Kevin Tagore like this, "Kevin, don't you care about your friends?" If England wins the game. I'm going to kiss the donkey's ass......"

"No, I'm sure you can win."

Wan Sheng rolled his eyes.

But he didn't have the heart to joke with Kevin Tagore. In fact, when he came to Portugal to watch various games, Wan Sheng still felt a little emotional, he felt a little like an outsider, watching history develop, imagining the feeling of being able to grasp the result seems good, but Wan Sheng didn't know whether he was happy or sad, he hoped that his little butterfly could incite his wings and have some impact on the development of history, so he felt that he would have a sense of achievement.

So he's a little bit expecting England to beat Portugal?

But in the end, England still lost the game.

It's a classic battle.

The match between England and Portugal has captured the attention of fans around the world, and it is the most watched match of the quarterfinals.

Both teams started the game well and the game was intense, with England taking advantage of the pitch but failing to score in a normal 90 minutes.

In extra-time, Portuguese midfielder Rui Costa, who plays for AC Milan, scored in the 20th minute, which almost sealed Portugal's victory, but no one could have imagined that just three minutes later, Frank Lampard's turning and powerful strike would help England equalise and the two teams would end in extra-time.

This was followed by a penalty shootout.

Beckham kicked the first penalty for England and kicked it away, but the rest of England's players were good, after five rounds of penalty shootouts, the two teams scored three goals each, and then it was a brutal one-on-one duel, as long as one team scored in one round and the other team did not score, then the outcome of the game will be decided.

Finally, in the seventh round of the penalty shoot-out, Portugal goalkeeper Ricardo scored a penalty and saved Vassell's shot to help Portugal win against England.

Ricardo also became the hero of Portugal's victory.

Wan Sheng stood in the stands, feeling that history was playing out in front of him, he knew the result before the game, thinking that it would change, but in the end it still did not change, the wheel of history did not seem to have changed because of his arrival, perhaps his influence is still relatively small.

"Ricardo, ......"

At the end of the game, Wan Sheng sighed, he had also considered introducing Ricciardo to replace Oakes, if it was still possible before this game, but after this game there is no need to think about it at all, Ricciardo is definitely famous in a fight, he has become one of the most famous goalkeepers in the world.

Thankfully, the team has already settled on Karachi.

After the game, many players in the England squad burst into tears, especially captain David Beckham...... Of course, none of this had anything to do with Wan Sheng, and after the game, he went back to the hotel with the 'excited' Kevin Tagore, and there were reporters waiting there in front of the door.

Wan Sheng knew what these reporters were talking about, and they just wanted Wan Sheng to taunt Erickson.

The two bet before that England could not enter the quarterfinals, and Eriksen was going to kiss the ass of the donkey, and now that the game is over, England lost to Portugal and ended the European Cup journey ahead of schedule.

Wan Sheng naturally would not refuse the 'good intentions' of reporters, even if the England team at this time is actually worthy of sympathy, but the bet between him and Eriksen has nothing to do with it.

"I hope he will deliver on his promise soon."

He said.

Then it's all about Wan Sheng, he can say a lot about why England lost and so on, but he is just the manager of a team that has just been promoted to League One, he is still very young, his words are not very influential, he will not say these things boringly, those have nothing to do with him, he is more concerned about the transfer work of the team.

You must know that the European Championship will not be over until the end of June, and the team's training camp will be at the beginning of July, which means that he must hurry up and get the club to make a transfer.

Wansheng's next target is Vidic.

This is the name he saw in the player profile given by the club, and at first sight of Vidic, Wan Sheng didn't even react, but after thinking about it carefully, he thought of who this familiar name was - the future main central defender of Manchester United.

Vidic is 23 years old this year, he is still playing in Red Star Belgrade, he is a typical young player in Serbia, he wore the captain's armband at a young age, but Red Star Belgrade Club is a club that relies on buying and selling players, they think that Vidic is good enough in the domestic league, such a player can be sold, so Vidic was listed for sale by the club, of course, he himself also has the intention of leaving Serbia to break into other leagues, After all, the Serbian league is a small league, and every professional player wants to go to the big league.

At present, the price tag given by Red Star Belgrade to Vidic is 6 million euros, which is equivalent to about 4 million pounds, which is still quite high, so there are not many clubs that plan to buy Vidic, and Vidic is also recommended to Wansheng by club scouts, because he is exceptionally good in the Serbian domestic league table.

Wan Sheng didn't expect the club's scouting work to be so good that he could find such a player, and if it weren't for the scout's recommendation, he would never have thought of Vidic.

But the price of 4 million pounds still needs to be considered, after all, the team's backline does not have to replenish players, and Vidic is not sure that he will be able to adapt quickly when he first arrives in the Premier League, so Wansheng still plans to let the club negotiate a transfer with Red Star Belgrade first, delay for a while, and wait until the new striker is finalized and the transfer funds are left, and then consider Vidic's transfer.

After all, the club is not that kind of big club, and the transfer funds should still be put in the most important position.

Undoubtedly, the forward line is the most important position of the team. (To be continued) R580
