Football King Bale

After playing the game against Latvia, Bell drove back to Manchester the next morning, because three days later, at noon on September 14, Manchester United would usher in the fourth round of the Premier League.

Now Manchester United is in a bad situation. In the first 3 rounds of the Premier League, Manchester United only achieved 1 win and 2 draws, and the league ranking suddenly dropped to 7th. Although the season has just begun, the ranking at this time is meaningless, but as the overlord of the Premier League, in terms of face, Still a little ugly.

When the team regrouped, Bell discovered that there was one missing face on the team. Although he had received the news a long time ago, Bell was still a little disappointed.

At the last minute of the summer transfer process, Arsenal poached Dutchman Sneijder from Manchester United. The 29-year-old Dutch midfielder helped Manchester United win 2 Premier League championships, 2 FA Cup championships, 2 Champions League championships, 1 League Cup championship, 2 European Super Cup championships, and 2 European Super Cup championships during his two seasons with the team. After winning the Club World Cup and many other honors, he still left Manchester United.

In the original time and space, Bell's transfer to Real Madrid this summer triggered a series of transfers. But now, Bell has long since moved to Manchester United, and coupled with the introduction of Modric to the main team, Real Madrid has suddenly lost two pillars. Therefore, this summer, in addition to Higuain leaving the Apennines, Goldfish Eyes is still there. Real Madrid's position is very stable, and Real Madrid has no intention of purging him, so Arsenal failed to poach him from the Bernabeu.

Therefore, the professor targeted Sneijder, who had problems renewing his contract with Manchester United.

………………

Due to Sneijder's high expectations for a contract extension, huge differences with Manchester United, coupled with the rise of Pogba, a young player in the team's youth training, and Arsenal's offer to Manchester United that was difficult to refuse, Ferguson finally expressed his disapproval of the deal. The transfer nodded.

At 18:00 GMT on September 2, Arsenal announced on its official website that it had officially signed Manchester United midfielder Sneijder. The Dutch international's transfer fee was 40 million pounds (approximately 47 million euros), which also created a record transfer fee in Arsenal's history.

British media revealed that the two parties signed a five-year contract, and Sneijder's annual salary will reach 10 million euros.

British media believe that in this transfer, Arsenal and Sneijder achieved a win-win situation. Arsenal obtained the coveted midfield brain, while Sneijder received the last big contract of his career.

After all, the Dutch midfielder is 29 years old. After fulfilling this contract, he has almost reached the twilight of his career, and it will be difficult to get any big contracts. At that time, you can go to America or the Middle East to pan for gold or something.

Only Manchester United was the loser. Although they received 40 million pounds in funding, they lost their midfield commander. Although there is Pogba and Modric in the Manchester United team, Pogba is still too young and may not be able to shoulder the important task of supporting Manchester United's midfield attack; Modric and Sneijder are not the same type of players after all. It’s hard to fill Sneijder’s role.

For a time, the negative view of Manchester United was once again rising in England.

………………

Bell's loss is not only due to Sneijder's departure. In fact, Bell is open to Sneijder's departure.

Of course, Sneijder is still at the peak of his career, and it would be better if he could stay on the team.

The more reason for Bell's loss is that Manchester United management broke its promise.

In the contract extension reached between Bell and Manchester United last summer, there was a key agreement, that is, Manchester United will spend no less than 50 million pounds on signings every year.

But now, only one year has passed, and Manchester United has gone back on their word.

It can be seen from this that the Glazer family really only has money in their eyes.

Of course, as the agent of the Glazer family, Manchester United's new CEO Sandoko called Bale after the official announcement of Sneijder's transfer, saying that the team had offered Dortmund 50 million pounds at the last minute and packaged the purchase. Dortmund’s leading striker Lewandowski and midfield commander Shinji Kagawa,

However, due to the rush of time and Klopp's rejection, the transfer could not be completed.

Bell was a little speechless. If this transfer can really be achieved, Manchester United will indeed improve a lot in the midfield and frontcourt. Let's not talk about Kagawa Shinji. The Japanese international's performance at Manchester United in another time and space is hard to say successful, but if it can By winning Lewandowski, Manchester United's center position will be guaranteed for the next 7 to 10 years.

Don't look at the fact that there are still three genuine centers in the Manchester United team, but Robin van Persie and Rooney have passed their prime. Hernandez's strength is limited. He can still play a big role as a substitute, but he wants to take on the main role of Manchester United. The center's responsibility is beyond his capabilities.

Of course, with Bell's extremely comprehensive ability now, he can fully assume the important role of Manchester United's main center. However, from the bottom of his heart, Bell would rather be a sharp knife, or even take on the role of midfield commander, rather than play the role of midfield commander. Become the team's bridgehead, go to the opponent's penalty area and fight with other tall central defenders.

However, Bell feels that this is just a face-saving effort deliberately made by the Glazer family to stabilize Bell, and the real sincerity is not shown.

However, it was hard for Bell to say anything. After all, he at least did a good job in terms of face.

………………

Since it has already entered mid-September, the summer transfer window has long been closed, and the transfer matters have been settled, but the result is somewhat surprising.

In this summer, it is not the Galacticos Real Madrid, nor the football hegemon Manchester United, nor the three super tycoons in football, Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, but Monaco, another tycoon in Ligue 1.

Yes, it is Ligue 1 newly promoted Monaco.

With financial support from owner Rybolovlev, this traditional team introduced 18 new players at a total cost of 166 million euros. The more eye-catching ones are: Falcao for 60 million euros, Rodriguez and Moutinho for 70 million euros, Sevilla’s French midfielder Kondogbia for 20 million euros, and Tularan for 5 million euros. Euros and Lyon's Marthea for €5 million.

Although Manchester City failed to occupy the honor of burning the most money, they still maintained their second position. In this summer, in order to win the Premier League championship, the Middle East oil tycoons continued to make heavy attacks. Fernandinho paid 40 million, Navas 20 million, Negredo 25 million, and Jovetic 26 million. With only four signings, Manchester United Chief Sur spent a huge sum of 116 million euros.

PSG, which has returned to rationality, only ranked third on the money-burning list, but still spent more than 100 million euros in the transfer market. Three of them are the most valuable: Cavani for 64.5 million euros, Digne for 15 million euros, and Marquinhos for 31.4 million euros.

………………

As far as the Premier League is concerned, Manchester City naturally ranks first in spending money. The second-ranked team is not Chelsea, the blue team under Mourinho, who has entered the palace for the second time, but Tottenham!

Last season, Tottenham finished fifth by 1 point. The North London giants, who failed to win the Champions League tickets, made a big signing this summer. Boss Lewis spent 82 million pounds to introduce Paulinho, Chadli and Capoue. , Quiriches, Lamela, Eriksen and other high-quality stars.

After selling Bale and Modric in the past few seasons, Tottenham is not short of money, but Lewis is famous for his stinginess. However, perhaps the absence of the Champions League last season has led to Tottenham's income this season. The drastic reduction stimulated him, and the miser finally decided to bleed a lot.

It can be seen that Tottenham are determined to do something big in the new season.

Before Mourinho returned to Chelsea this summer, many British media revealed that Abramovich had prepared a signing budget of up to 200 million pounds for the Madmen. Chelsea's signings are extremely worth looking forward to.

However, when it came to full-scale recruitment, Chelsea encountered obstacles everywhere. Top stars such as Falcao, Hulk and Mangala were not able to be introduced. Mourinho also poached Alonso, Khedira and other former Real Madrid players. To no avail, despite the eventual introduction of Schürrle, Van Ginkel, Schwarzer, Quebas, Perica, Eto'o, William, Christian Atsu and others, the team that most needed reinforcements was For the center position, because he failed to poach Rooney from Manchester United, Mourinho had to bite the bullet and rely on the out-of-form Torres. It is unknown whether the 32-year-old Eto'o can adapt to the Premier League.

As early as the end of last season, there were rumors that the signing budget available to Wenger this summer would be an unprecedented huge sum of money. Later, Arsenal officials confirmed that the professor could be bought for 70 million pounds.

However, after the summer window opened, Arsenal's signings became a joke. Especially when Higuain underwent a medical examination but switched to Naples, the ridicule reached its peak.

However, Wenger was not discouraged. He first signed back his old player Flamini for zero price despite pressure and doubts, and then spent 40 million pounds to buy Manchester United superstar Spurs before the window closed, the highest price in team history. Ned.

Also this summer, Arsenal also dealt with Arshavin, Squillac, Gervinho, Chamakh and other high-paid redundant personnel. Now the Gunners' lineup has the strength to hit the Premier League championship.

Liverpool has performed well since the start of the new Premier League season. It currently ranks second with 2 wins and 1 draw. This summer's signings have played a positive role in boosting the team. The team has completed effective signings in positions that need to be supplemented. Kolo Toure, Alberto, Aspas, Mignolet and others have become effective forces, and the consecutive signings of Sakho, Moses and Thiago Ilori before the window closed have been generally praised by the British media.

In addition, we must also note that Liverpool sold Carroll, Downing and other parallel imports that have been criticized by the KOP for a long time this summer. Now coach Rogers can finally lead the most ideal lineup to hit all goals in the new season.

On the other hand, Premier League hegemon Manchester United's performance in this summer transfer window has been disappointing. They only introduced a little-known young central defender Van Dijk from the Eredivisie, but sold away another Dutch superstar Sneijder.

Some die-hard Red Devils ridiculed the Glazer family: Now the Americans are happy. They exchanged a Dutchman for a Dutchman and made a net profit of 35 million pounds. They insist on getting this business!
