Chapter 490

Manchester City's unexpected loss of points shocked the entire Premier League.

Crystal Palace, which had been sitting at the bottom (occasionally second to bottom) in the previous 20 rounds, turned out to be the spoiler of the championship. This development of the plot was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

Guardiola was taught a lesson by the "true king of North London". When he returned to the Etihad, he scolded all the players. If it weren't for his high prestige, Aguero, Ster Players such as Lin, Jesus, Gundogan, and Walker may all riot on the spot!
Guardiola, who had learned from the painful experience, immediately started to strengthen the lineup. Manchester City's transfer department was running at high speed, and there was a transfer action soon.

At a price close to 5700 million euros, they introduced the 23-year-old young central defender Laporte from the La Liga Athletic Bilbao team to replace Otamendi, who has been looked down upon by Guashuai, and Stones. Together form a central defender partner.

Also buying people quickly, there are Arsenal, Tottenham and Liverpool among the four contenders.

Arsenal used a record breaking team history of 6000 million to introduce last season's Golden Boot winner, Dortmund's Aubameyang from the Bundesliga.In order to reduce financial pressure, they had to clean up old players such as the "little tiger" Walcott and Giroud.

Since the No. 10 player was abolished by Li Polo before, and his career was almost scrapped, Arsenal originally wanted to forcibly keep Sanchez, the only thigh in the team. Will leave, Wenger can only accept Manchester United's plan, and Sanchez will replace Mkhitaryan.

Tottenham signed winger Lucas Jr. from Paris Saint-Germain at a price of 2800 million, further strengthening their offensive firepower.

Liverpool's road to buying is quite bumpy. Keita, who signed half a year ago, will not be able to officially join until next season. Lemar, who has been begging for several seasons, was raised all the way to 7000 million by Monaco, as well as Naples. Central defender Coulibaly, Mahrez of Leicester City, and even Van Dijk, who became a thigh in Valencia, their clubs are not willing to let people go easily...

Liverpool, who had hit a wall everywhere, had an idea, they gave up Lemar, and instead bid 5000 million, poaching the all-around backcourt Fabinho from Monaco!

Although Fabinho has been unable to participate in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, Liverpool's top priority is to compete with Tottenham and Arsenal for No. 4 in the league. It was time to use him to stabilize the defense!

As for Chelsea, there is no need to buy people for the time being, but some players have been lost.

For example, Michy Batshuayi, who has always been the No. [-] figure in Remy's black book, although he has won many rotation opportunities in the Blues, and his scoring efficiency is not low, but considering No. [-] forward Li Bo Luo is strong and strong, and has not even had a cold, fever, headache, and leg ailment in half a year. Batshuayi still decisively chose to transfer.

His new club is the "Bundesliga Hornet" Dortmund who just lost Aubameyang!
In addition to Batshuayi, defender Zouma, Musonda, Palmer and other youth teams have also been loaned to Stoke City, Celtic, Derby County and other teams.

The all-round midfielder or defensive midfielder that Conte has always wanted to introduce, but he finally failed to find it. Director Marina provided him with two options, Bakayoko and Drinkoko, but these two guys were rejected in the summer. Li Polo vetoed it, so until now, Chelsea's midfield candidates are still only Kanter, Xiaofa, and Golovin...

That's why Li Polo suggested to Conte that if there is really no one available, Luis can just play a cameo as a defensive midfielder!

Tough defense, strong physique, flexible turns, likes to grab, and has a long pass and long shot with high accuracy. He almost meets all the qualities of a midfielder!
However, Chelsea is not completely without buyers. They finally took in the French center of their city rival Arsenal, Oliver Giroud, at a cabbage price of 1800 million euros...

Unlike Batshuayi, who is unwilling to be a substitute all the time, the 31-year-old Giroud has no objection to being a substitute for Lee Polo!
After completing the signing, he even said to reporters with a smile on his face:

"Lee Polo is already the number one scoring machine in history. I am honored to be able to serve as a substitute for him!"

Remy took out his little black book, and after racking his brains, he finally wrote down a sentence:

"This person was so brazen on the first day he joined the team, and he will definitely be my rival in the future!"
-
It's no wonder that Giroud is so active in completing the transfer, because in the first game in 2018, Chelsea will go to the Emirates Stadium...

On January 2018, 1, when most people were still celebrating the New Year, the 1nd round of the Premier League had already started.

Liverpool reversed the biggest dark horse of the season 2:1 in the away game-Burnley, which ranked 6th in the standings, continued to secure its fourth position.

Manchester United, who played later, relied on goals from Martial and Lingard to beat Everton 2-0 at Goodison Park, leading Liverpool by one point.

1月2日,坐镇主场的曼城游刃有余地3:1击败沃特福德,将自己的联赛积分提高到了59分。

And Chelsea, with 60 points, had to wait until a day later before they could step into the arena.

When Manchester City took all three points, Conte had just led his players into Arsenal's press hall, preparing to participate in the pre-match press conference.

After learning the news of Manchester City's victory, Conte was not surprised at all:
"Not every team can become Crystal Palace. If you want to defend the league championship, the most important thing is to win every game in front of you, rather than expecting others to help us stop our opponents."

Li Poluo sighed, and then remained silent for a long time.

Conte gave him a strange look.

In the last few rounds of the league, the strength of the opponents was so weak that Li Boluo didn't bother to attend the press conference, which also caused the British media to lack enough hot topics to attract attention.

This round is not only a London derby, but also a focus match. Why is this kid not excited at all?
"In faraway China, it is often considered impolite for young people to criticize elders."

After a "long" wait, Lee Polo finally spoke:

"So, please allow me to explain to Mr. Wenger in advance that I have always respected him, and my next statement is absolutely not intended to offend."

【Here he comes! 】

Conte quickly reached out and covered his chin to prevent his facial expression from getting out of control.

The reporters in the audience were even more refreshed. They all pricked up their ears and held their breath.

I saw Li Poluo looking at the camera seriously:

"This season has played 22 rounds, the situation of the Premier League is very clear, Chelsea will 100% defend the title, Manchester City strives for the runner-up, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham, Arsenal, Burnley will compete for two tickets to the Champions League. "

Some of the reporters grinned wryly.

[Even if Chelsea can beat Arsenal in this game, they are only 4 points ahead of Manchester City. There are still 16 rounds in the league. How can they be 100% defending champions? 】

But Lee Polo didn't mind their doubts, and started his analysis seriously:

"Among these five clubs, I believe that Manchester United and Liverpool can enter the top four. After all, they have a deeper foundation and strong financial resources. The coaches are full of ambitions. The players are also full of desire for victory. Compared with the other three opponents, they have the advantage."

"I heard that during the ten years that Mr. Wenger has been in charge of Arsenal, he has always been able to ensure participation in the Champions League. This year's participation in the Europa League is only the first time in history. But if they don't take any action, next year I am afraid that this disappointing ending will continue.

Considering that the probability of the top four in the league is slim, I suggest that Mr. Wenger focus on the Europa League. With Arsenal's strength, if the tactics are right, it will not be difficult to win the final championship.

This is also their best chance to enter the Champions League next season! "

Lee Polo's face was full of sincere feelings:
"I'm all for Arsenal. I hope Mr. Wenger can think carefully about it."

But the host Wenger didn't appreciate it at all, and even dismissed it:
[You know what a fart! 】

【You just want to hit us psychologically! 】

[Controversy [-], I am the professional Arsenal! 】

[How could Manchester United and Liverpool be my opponents? 】
