Xiao Qing applauded Arsene Wenger's clean clapping in the transfer market, although Nasri and Cesc Fabregas are better, but for Arsenal they don't necessarily need the strongest players, they need players who can unite with the team, players who can continue to move towards a common goal.

Cazorla and Arteta's strength may still be a little lacking, but it doesn't matter, because Arsenal don't need them to be the core of the team, they just need to play for Xiao Qing with peace of mind, and their main task is to become Xiao Qing's supporter at the offensive end. Arsenal's clear core is Xiao Qing, and Arsenal's attack will also revolve around Xiao Qing, rather than other players trying to grab power, which is also an unwise choice that will weaken the team's combat effectiveness.

Arsenal's current strength is definitely a regression compared to last season, but now Arsenal is also more clear about the determination to build a team around Xiao Qing as the core, at this time everyone can see that the new season's Arsenal will be a team that belongs to Arsenal thoroughly, and even Van Persie is now only Xiao Qing's senior helper.

In the summer of 2010, the Premier League's total spending on the transfer market was only £360 million, a six-year low, and such a figure was on the premise that Manchester City threw out nearly 130 million. The total net investment of the three giants Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal is still less than 50 million, which seems to announce that the Premier League, the largest player in the transfer market, has fallen silent.

I don't want to be a year later, the Premier League "aristocracy" who has pulled into his trouser belt suddenly gives generously, and Manchester City's oil and black gold are still rolling in. Neither Glazer nor Abu are stingy. Anfield's new owner, Thierry Henry, even gave the "King" a transfer budget of more than $50 million. Even the "house slave" Arsenal is thinking about going into the sea to set off a huge wave. After a wave of transfer storms, we can even assert that this has been perhaps the most bitter season in the title race since the inception of the Premier League.

At this time last year, Manchester United were one of the most dormant giants in the European transfer market, buying the lesser-known likes of Smalling, Hernandez and Babe for just £22 million. Exactly. Last season, Manchester United completely lost their competitiveness in the league, at least compared to Arsenal, they fell early on the road to the league title, and in the five meetings with Arsenal in a season, the Red Devils Manchester United lost even the bottoms.

Ferguson realised that he had to make a difference in the transfer market, not only because other competitors were already in the arms race, but also because he needed to complete the renewal of his squad as soon as possible, and he needed to make sure his squad was competitive; No one knows when Ferguson will retire, but he needs Ferguson to ensure that he will retire after retirement. Manchester United were able to make a smooth transition to the next manager.

Manchester United has invested more than 50 million in the summer, and Manchester United's transfer strategy can be described as "rather lacking than excess, going forward". They are trying to improve their competitiveness, and as the most successful team in the Premier League, the Red Devils will not allow what happened last season to happen again, they need to be competitive enough!

Compared to Manchester United, Chelsea's actions last summer were indeed much bigger, but this was mostly manifested in the selling of personnel, including Deco, Ballack, Joe Cole, Carvalho and a dozen other players left the country, while only Benayoun, Karas, Ramirez and Dragci joined Stamford Bridge, with a net investment of less than 20 million, and even Drogba had to admit that their bench depth was far less than in the 2009-10 season. Such a devastated injury largely led to Chelsea's collapse in the middle of last season, and even the winter investment in Torres and David Luiz did not help.

Since Russia won the 2018 Shijie Cup, Abou has shown his determination to revive Chelsea, not only bringing in "Jose Mourinho II" Villas-Boas this summer, but also continuing to add new blood to the transfer market, with Romelu Lukaku, Koutuis and Romeu all promising youngsters; If a midfield commander can be acquired, then Chelsea will go a long way towards alleviating the lack of creativity in attack.

In terms of personnel, Chelsea's strength has continued unabated this season, with Villas-Boas having more room to deploy his players. In theory, it's going to be a perfect team. The question is whether Villas-Boas can level the dressing room, and when Mourinho came to Stamford Bridge, he could say that he was the Champions League-winning manager, a group of players who were nothing; But Villas-Boas is up against a group of bigwigs who hold multiple Premier League and FA Cup trophies.

In the summer of 2010, Manchester City signed six stars in a row, including Yaya Toure, Balotelli and David Silva, and spent nearly 130 million pounds while cheaply letting go of players such as Robinho, Ireland, Benjani, Petrov and Bodinov, basically completing the upgrading of various fronts. While there are also inexpensive players like James Milner in the six new signings, City's success in the transfer market is evident in the fact that Manchester City have won the FA Cup and finished in the top three of the league thanks to the performances of Silva and Toure.

This is Mancini's two seasons at Manchester City, Manchester City has reached a relatively balanced situation in all aspects, so they have also tended to be rational in the transfer market this summer, Aguero, Klich, Savic and Nasri, Manchester City's current transfers are also relatively more targeted.

Roberto Mancini is now no longer spending lavishly, which means his team is in ideal form. So, this is also a team that has increased unabated, and this is also a team that has no squad flaws. Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City are also the three most promising teams to win the title this season. Roberto Mancini has to improve the consistency of the squad as quickly as possible, as they were beaten against Arsenal last season and they really need to continue to work hard for the next season.

As for the former Reds Liverpool, Dalglish has reason to make Benitez jealous and jealous, who in recent years has not only fought to the death with the former Reds CEO Parry during his time at Anfield, but also because of the miserliness of the two American owners who have not been able to make a big difference in the transfer market. The same was true for Hodgson at this time last year, with coaching, injuries and a weak squad for many reasons, which made Liverpool stumble in the first half of the season, and it is understandable that Hodgson was unfortunately sacked.

And the new manager Dalglish met a good owner, and this summer also became the largest net investment at Anfield, with Henderson, Adam and Downing alone spending 50 million, as well as Roma goalkeeper Doni who joined for free and Suarez and Carroll, who bought nearly 60 million at the beginning of the year, Liverpool's main squad is no worse than in the 2008-09 season.

Overall, Liverpool's squad has been strengthened a lot, but the team still has a lot of problems, the back line lacks top players who are second to none, and it is not stable enough; The midfield is redundant and lacks a player who controls the tempo and is very creative, which means that Liverpool can play against strong teams without falling behind.

But in view of the current Liverpool's financial resources and the basic law of team building, Liverpool can not eat a big fat man, the team's transformation and upgrading is a long-term process, next season's basic goal for Liverpool to enter the league semi-finals and obtain the Champions League seat, which can not only increase the team's income, restore the confidence of fans, but also attract more powerful stars. In fact, whether Liverpool can complete the revival in the next few years depends on the performance of the existing group of players, and Dalglish is also a key figure.

Missing out on the Champions League for two consecutive seasons is something that the proud Reds can't accept, a team with an incredibly glorious past, and now they are also the first to lag behind in the Premier League's traditional BIG4; Now they need to clean up the old rivers and mountains, they need to complete the complete rise in the trough, they can't wait any longer, they need to show more outstanding strength and competitiveness!

And Tottenham Hotspur, although they have made little move in the transfer market; But they don't have much player loss, for Arsenal's north London rivals, Tottenham is really a rising team, with Modric, Gareth Bale, which means they have the qualification to hit the top four in the league, they may not be the most luxurious team, but they have no obvious shortcomings, their squad is very simple, but it is also quite balanced.

As the defending champions, as two consecutive champions in the league, Arsenal will really have a lot of challenges in the new season; Other teams have been recruiting this off-season and there is no doubt that their main target is Arsenal, who have suffered from Arsenal over the past two seasons and know how strong Arsenal are. Now they are collectively improving their strength, and they are trying to break Arsenal's domination of the Premier League.

There is no need to doubt Arsenal's strength at all, perhaps Arsenal's squad is not the most luxurious in comparison, but Arsenal has the best strengths; Xiao Qing's existence makes Arsenal stand at a high enough height, as long as Xiao Qing's power can be played in the game, then it will be a success for Arsenal.

Arsenal has achieved incomparably brilliant results in the past two seasons, although last season's super squad has lost a lot this offseason, but Arsenal's confidence is still there; They are the defending champions and their squad has not been dealt a fatal blow. So Arsenal don't need to worry about anything at all, although their competitors are reinforcing each other, but Arsenal have already taken a lot of lead before, and they don't need to doubt too much, because Arsenal can be better!
