Chapter 8: Wayne Rooney

The next day, the front page headlines in major sports newspapers across Europe were not France's reversal of England, but a magical prophecy about Chelsea's new coach Joe Wanxian.

The Times wrote: "Mr. Qiao Wanxian used his incomparably advanced football thinking to correctly interpret this wonderful group stage of the European Cup. It may be too early to say that Eriksson can't lead LinkedIn Gran to the title, but there's no denying that his understanding of football is commendable. Zidane's performance of two goals in three minutes was simply like discussing it with Qiao Wanxian in the dark. ”

The Daily Mail put it succinctly: "The new Chelsea manager is shocking and a slap in the face to some football experts!" ”

Even the "Sun", which has always looked down on Qiao Wanxian, suddenly changed its words: "Maybe Mr. Abu and Mr. Kenyon have really done Bole, and Qiao Wanxian is not useless." However, what happens to him depends on the state of the league in the new season. ”

At this moment, Qiao Wanxian is fully focused on Rooney, and last night's offer to Everton has not received a reply from the other club, and he came to the club early in the morning to discuss this transfer further.

However, in front of the club, there was already a circle of reporters, and when they saw Qiao Wan, they seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and they rushed forward one after another, chattering and asking questions, and they became noisy in an instant.

Qiao Wanxian hurriedly yelled: "I won't say anything about yesterday's game!" ”

Suddenly, the scene became quiet. Suddenly, a sinister reporter squeezed up, handed over the microphone, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Wan Xian, I heard that you have made an offer of up to 15 million pounds to Everton to buy Rooney, is this true?" ”

A normal manager would be absolutely silent about such a question, but Qiao Wanxian did the opposite, and said unabashedly: "Yes, Wayne Rooney is a talented player, Goodison will only limit his development, and Stamford Bridge is his hope for the future!" ”

This is definitely a slap in the face, and the reporters whose emotions had just been suppressed suddenly became hot again, and they pricked up their ears one by one for fear of missing a little information.

"In the first game of the European Championship against France, Rooney's performance was mediocre and unremarkable, how does Mr. Wan Xian think he is a talented player?"

Qiao Wan pouted his lips and said disdainfully: "I have already said something, Mr. Erikson is not suitable for the England team, and he has made a big mistake in using Rooney. Yes, maybe Wayne Rooney will score in the next game against Switzerland, but I dare to assert that if Eriksson dares to continue to press Rooney like this, he will definitely not be able to complete all England's games at the European Championship! ”

The reporters were excited and manic, this Qiao Wanxian is simply not shocking and endless, yesterday he bombarded England coach Eriksson, and today it is even more intensified, for them, such news is definitely more important than the European Championship game.

"Mr. Wan Xian, listen to your tone, do you mean...... Rooney is vulnerable to injury under Eriksson's tactics? ”

Qiao Wanxian showed a compassionate look and sighed: "That's right! Well, young players are in the development period, and their bodies and skills are growing rapidly. If they get injured at this stage, it will be a fatal blow to their careers. ”

This Qiao Wanxian is simply full of magnifying cannons, Rooney is now alive and well in the England team, just like a little bulldozer, you dare to be so sure that he will be injured?

At this time, many reporters have already typed the next news draft in their hearts "Joe's cannon is open, little Rooney will be injured?" 》

Jowan Xian only wants to use the media to convey one thing to Everton and Wayne Rooney, that is, Chelsea Football Club is very interested in Rooney and will do whatever it takes to bring him in.

But he didn't know that because of such an interview, he had such a nickname - Joe Cannon.

At the same time, there has been a study of offers from Chelsea within the Everton club, and based on Rooney's current performance, £15 million is definitely a lot. It's just that the team's head coach David Moyes has repeatedly stressed that Rooney can't be sold!

The manager of the Premier League club has very large authority, so Chelsea's offer of 15 million was returned.

Rooney's agent, Strayford, is insatiable and wants to get a huge signing fee and a commission on the fee from Rooney's transfer. As soon as he heard the news, Strelford was immediately annoyed and approached Everton's chairman Kenwright to ask for an explanation, saying that Wayne Rooney is a talented player, and staying in the Everton team will only limit his development, and he needs to move to a bigger club to show his talent.

So the pressure on Everton suddenly increased, from the double pressure of Chelsea and agent Strayford, although the manager Moyes has repeatedly stressed that Rooney is not for sale, everyone knows that if Rooney is bent on leaving, the club will never be able to stop it.

Just when Jowan was smug and thought that Rooney's transfer would be successful soon, an interview from Portugal poured cold water on his head.

In the interview, Wayne Rooney thanked Chelsea manager Joe Wanxian for his attention in the past two days, but said that he does not plan to discuss a transfer at the moment, and that working hard for England is the main task. While Joovan was idle about Eriksson's use of himself, Rooney remained silent, saying that everything would be seen after the European Championships.

That's right, don't you Qiao Wanxian like magnifying guns? Okay, let's see if Eriksson's tactics are really as bullshit as you claim.

The transfer was put on hold, which made Qiao Wanxian very unhappy. Once the European Championship is over, Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson is afraid that he will interfere with Rooney's transfer, will Rooney be willing to play under me at that time? A big question mark appeared in Qiao Wanxian's heart.

On June 17, 2004, in the second round of the group stage of the European Cup, England scored 3:0 Switzerland, Wayne Rooney scored twice, shining on the European stage, and Wayne Rooney officially stepped onto the international stage. Compared with Portugal's Ronaldo, the Netherlands' Robben, Rooney's starlight is even more dazzling.

On June 21, 2004, in the third round of the group stage of the European Cup, England beat Croatia 4:2, and Rooney did not win.

So far, the England team has successfully entered the top 8 with the second place in the group stage, but will face the strong host Portugal in the quarter-finals!

This Portugal team, led by Figo and Rui Costa, can be said to be the golden generation in the history of Portugal, and this cup is aiming to win the championship.

In the match between England and Portugal, Owen opened the scoring for England, and not long after, Rooney went down injured and left the field as Joovan expected.

England without Wayne Rooney were finally beaten twice by Portugal's Rui Costa in a good situation, and the score was locked at 2:2.

Penalty shootout, England lost 5:6, and the European Cup was out!

When England returned home, the entire England fan base was in a state of extreme grief. And major media outlets have also begun to publish articles to explain the reasons for England's defeat in the European Cup.

The headline of the football page of "The Times" put a sunglasses photo of Qiao Wanxian, young and handsome, but the accompanying words next to it were very domineering: "Everything is expected!" ”

The content of the article is very popular, and the content also reveals a lot of inside stories about Qiao Wanxian and Rooney.

The article first borrowed Qiao Wanxian's words to lash out at England coach Eriksson's conservatism and the serious mistakes of Rooney;

He went on to say that Chelsea had made a new offer to Everton FC for around £20 million, with a bold quote from Jowan: "A match against Portugal will keep Wayne Rooney from injury for three months." I don't want to be a genius, come to Chelsea, only my tactics can make you play the most perfectly! ”

Zuihou also published a quote from Wayne Rooney, who was recovering from an injury in the United States: "I will never appear in Goodison Park again in an Everton shirt!" ”

The Times is not a professional football newspaper, but when the article was published, it immediately caused an uproar in English football.

Everywhere there were demeaning voices: "Only you can use Rooney well?" Egomania! ”

"Wayne Rooney is the future of England and I don't want to lose my talent under that yellow-skinned man!"

"It's true that Wayne Rooney wants a bigger stage, but you can't choose Chelsea!"

Some media lashed out even more: "Young man, in front of Eriksson, you're a piece of!" ”

Of course, several media outlets saw Qiao Wanxian's magical prediction and said good things for him: "Although Joe Cannon is wild and uninhibited, it is undeniable that he has a very deep understanding of English football and Rooney. ”

On June 28, 2004, Rooney's economist Stredford came to Everton Club with a red face and issued an ultimatum to club president Kenwright and manager David Moyes: "Rooney has said he wants to join Chelsea!" ”

Kenwright and Moyes are already deeply aware that Everton may not be able to keep Rooney as a future superstar, and Jowan's magical predictions and media use have obviously touched the hearts of young Rooney.

Moyes sighed, turned to Kenwright and shook his head: "Mr. President, what was Chelsea's last offer for Wayne Rooney?" ”

Kenwright's face was gloomy and in a bad mood, and he said gloomily: "20 million pounds." ”

Moyes took a deep breath and said resolutely: "I want Chelsea to take Rooney with 25 million pounds!" With that, Moyes sighed and left the office.

Strefford was already impatient to start negotiations with Chelsea, and when he heard Moyes finally relent, he was overjoyed, and his eyes lit up and said: "Great! Mr Kenwright, Mr Moyes, I represent Wayne Rooney, I represent all England fans, xiexie! ”

Ferguson has developed a keen interest in Wayne Rooney since the Euros, and has already sent his younger brother to Everton to find out about him.

But unexpectedly, on July 1, 2004, the first day of the transfer window, Chelsea and Everton posted a message on their official websites at the same time, which shocked the old man and almost fell off his stool, muttering: "Joe Cannon, I won't let you go!" ”
