Bring in another striker?

It is true that the Liverpool board of directors put forward the discussion plan, but there is a problem.

money!

In the list of players recommended by Liverpool’s scout team, Aston Villa’s Belgian high centre forward Benteke ranked first. This player ranked fifth in the Premier League’s scorer list this season and ranked in Iraq. After Brahimovic, Suarez, Van Persie and Gareth Bale.

More importantly, although Benteke has a long contract with Aston Villa, his weekly salary is very low, only 20,000 pounds, which is not worthy of the current outstanding performance of the Belgian center, so the transfer market has always been The news that Benteke was going to transfer went crazy.

But to persuade Aston Villa to release people, at least 20 million pounds or more!

In addition, Liverpool scouts also recommended Bayern Munich's Swiss international Shaqiri, who believes that the latter can effectively enhance the Red Army's frontcourt attack and the ability to advance the ball, but this player is worth at least 15 million pounds. the above.

Ian Al knew in his heart that it was impossible for the boss to pay 35 million pounds to sign up!

Therefore, if Liverpool wants to bring in Benteke and Shaqiri, there is only one way to sell Suarez!

It's just that this is a bit unwilling!

After all, Suarez is the only player in the Liverpool team with a top level.

To put it bluntly, Suarez's type of player is a strategic level in any team.

Selling Suarez, Liverpool want to compete for the league title in the short term, so don't expect it at all!

Yang Huan was always paying attention to Ian Al, watching the latter's face change, and he knew it.

It is difficult for anyone to make such a bold decision.

But sometimes, only in this way can the team have a future!

"Ian!" Yang Huan smiled and looked at the general manager of Liverpool.

"If your Red Army is willing to sell Suarez, remember to notify me, I am very interested!"

After the end of this season, Drogba may go to Monaco for retirement. At that time, Ibrahimovic and Sturridge will support the striker, which is seriously insufficient.

So, if Suarez can be introduced again, it would be perfect!

More importantly, Suarez is not only strong, he is also very comprehensive.

With his joining, Southampton can even try to learn from Liverpool's previous life, combining Suarez and Sturridge into a double striker combination, bringing more tactical changes to Southampton.

And with Suarez, Neymar, Gareth Bale, Ibrahimovic, Hazard, Southampton's entire midfielder, personal ability is really too strong.

At that time, let alone the entire Premier League, even in the European arena, who can stop it?

Thinking of this, Yang Huan really had an urge to keep Neymar.

But soon he gave up this alluring idea.

Because he knew that forcing Neymar to stay would do more harm than good to Southampton!

Ian Ayre is obviously reluctant to talk more about Suarez, because he knows very well that the Uruguayan is now the core player of Liverpool and has attracted the attention of many European giants. Once handled carelessly, things will be troublesome. Up.

"Master Huan, I heard that the teams that will expand next year in the International Champions Cup will be selected from the Asian Challenge teams, right?"

Yang Huan nodded, very candid, "Yes, if there is no accident, it should be so."

From the current signs, the expansion of the International Champions Cup next year is already imperative.

The reason is simple, the market response is too enthusiastic.

First, many countries and regions in Asia have thrown an olive branch to Miracle Media, and then Australia in Oceania is also very interested. Among them, Melbourne even offered a high government subsidy of 10 million pounds in order to attract the International Champions Cup.

If the semi-finals and finals can be arranged in Melbourne, government subsidies can be even higher.

In addition to Australia, Qatar in the Middle East is also very enthusiastic.

The conditions they offer are even more generous than those of Australia. If the International Champions Cup is willing to be held in Qatar, not only will all the expenses be comprehensive, the Qatar government is willing to pay for the team’s playing costs while also offering high government subsidies.

All these have made Miracle Media clearly realize that the International Champions Cup has a lot to do, and the expansion of the army is imperative!

It is precisely because of these rumors that Ian Al was very moved.

Liverpool’s owner is from the United States, and the sponsor is New Balance’s Brave Sports. In this case, if Liverpool can participate in the International Champions Cup, especially the International Champions Cup held in the United States, it will be of great help to the Red Army.

Besides, who doesn't know in European football now, whoever participates in the International Champions Cup will make a lot of money!

"Master Huan, I don't know, will Liverpool have a chance to become an official member?"

Yang Huan looked at Ian Al and smiled slightly, "We are still studying the issue of army expansion, and the specific quota has not yet been determined. Liverpool is also our key consideration, but the specific situation still depends on the company's research results."

After listening to Ian El, he was a little disappointed. He knew very well that this was Yang Huan's Tai Chi promoter.

What company research results?

To put it bluntly, isn't it just who Miracle Media wants to choose, who can participate?

The popularity of the International Champions Cup, the attention of the media, the enthusiasm of the fans, and the excellent schedule of the game, as long as the team participating in the competition is not too bad, the strength is not too weak, who is not the same?

Really speaking of strength, can Arsenal be better than Chelsea?

How can there be only one Juventus in Serie A?

But for this kind of thing, Ian El dare not ask more.

Yang Huan saw everything in his eyes, and he knew it in his heart.

In Yang Huan’s view, with Ferguson’s retirement, Manchester United is bound to enter a period of adjustment; Manchester City’s poor performance this season will definitely usher in turmoil; Chelsea’s team’s metabolism is only halfway through, even if Mourinho II next season Entering the palace, the prospects may hardly surprise people.

In this way, Southampton will usher in a godsend opportunity.

Even if you really don't win the championship at the end of this season, next season, Yang Huan will take Southampton and bet on a league championship, and at the same time have something to do in the Champions League!

But this is only a short-term strategy!

So, what is the long-term strategy of the Saints?

It's very simple, that is to make the Premier League a back garden for the Saints!

La Liga has Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and the Bundesliga has Bayern Munich. In the future, the Premier League will belong to Southampton's prohibition!

If you want to do this, it's useless to have money alone.

Therefore, in the past, Yang Huan supported the youth training reform of the FA to promote the glorious revolution, actively played a role in the Premier League, and worked hard to maintain a good relationship with other Premier League teams, and so on.

Even if Southampton participates in the League Cup and the FA Cup, if the team encountered is from a low-level league, all the ticket income of the Saints is not a penny, and all is given to the opponent.

And some teams with relatively simple stadium conditions, or poor attendance, will take the initiative to arrange the game venue in St. Mary's Stadium, because in this way, they can earn at least hundreds of thousands of pounds in each game.

Think about it, for those low-level league teams, hundreds of thousands of pounds are astronomical.

But for Southampton, hundreds of thousands of pounds are really expensive, but from another perspective, the fans enjoy low ticket prices, the team has the advantage of the home court, the hope is greater for promotion, and it can also win the praise and gratitude of opponents. .

So, now Southampton's reputation in the Premier League is so good that it explodes!

In addition, Yang Huan is also actively wooing some alliances of interest.

For example, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, unceremoniously speaking, these two teams are Southampton's strongest league in the Premier League, only Southampton is the leader.

The relationship between Manchester United and Arsenal and Southampton is also increasing day by day, after all, they have common interests.

Only Chelsea and Newcastle are the only two teams that have forged a deep hatred with Southampton and their relationship is very bad.

But in the Premier League and even the English football are all praised Southampton up and down, a very small number of bad reviews of one or two teams does not damage the overall situation.

In Yang Huan's own words, the nine-character tactics for the saints to conquer the Premier League are: build walls, accumulate food, and slowly become king!

…………

…………

In the 30th round of the Premier League, Southampton finally defeated Liverpool at home with three goals from Tony Cross, Gareth Bale and Ibrahimovic at St Mary's Stadium.

Suarez relied on his personal ability in the second half to dug a goal from Southampton's steel line of defense.

This also surprised Yang Huan who was watching the game in the stands, and his determination to poach Liverpool was even greater.

But Ian Al’s attitude is still clear, and he refuses to let go of Suarez’s transfer.

And Yang Huan is also reciprocal and ambiguous regarding Liverpool's participation in the International Champions Cup.

Because Manchester United defeated Reading the day before, so even if Southampton beat Liverpool and won everyone's praise and affirmation, it still failed to shorten the points gap with Manchester United.

The gap between the two teams is still eight points!

After playing Liverpool, Southampton followed suit and defeated Basel of Switzerland 2-0 at home.

It was Drogba and Gareth Bale who scored for Southampton.

At the weekend, Southampton went north to Liverpool to participate in the FA Cup quarter-finals knockout and challenged Everton away.

In the end, with the goals of Varane, Vidal and Sturridge, Southampton beat Everton 3-0.

Although Moyes's team played at home, they still failed to stop the wolf-like Southampton, and eventually had to hate at home and were eliminated from the FA Cup.

In the middle of the week, it ushered in the second round of the Europa League round of sixteen knockouts. Southampton defeated Basel with a one-to-zero away game.

It was Neymar who scored the key goal for Southampton.

In the end, with a total score of three to zero, a two-round double-kill record, successfully eliminated Basel and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals of the Europa League.

In the quarter-final knockout draw, Southampton drew Lazio from Serie A.

This weekend, ushered in the 31st round of the Premier League.

Manchester United’s away game against Sunderland was held one day earlier than Southampton ~www.readwn.com~ As a result, Ferguson's team defeated Martin O'Neal's black cat Sunderland away with an own goal presented by the opponent.

This also makes the entire English media community feel fortunate for Manchester United.

If you look at the game process purely, a zero-to-zero draw is a more reasonable score, because Manchester United did not create a good scoring opportunity throughout the game.

But who would have thought that an own goal would help Manchester United score three points again.

At the press conference after the game, Ferguson smiled like that with an old face, closing his mouth from ear to ear, and kept saying that Manchester United had scored a valuable three-pointer and won a crucial victory.

Not to mention that Southampton's opponent in this round of the league is Chelsea.

Even if the Saints really defeated Chelsea and scored three points, can they still catch up with the eight-point gap in seven league matches?

Anyway, there are fewer and fewer people who believe that Southampton will perform miracles!
