Chapter 1547 The Star of Tomorrow
In the document in front of Li Mu, there are only three Chinese characters in the dense English alphabet, which is the name of "Sun Jihai".
Li Mu is also a veteran fan. In his last life, the Huaxia men's football team entered the World Cup. Li Mu was so excited that he didn't sleep well for a few days. All three were negative.
But even so, until Li Mu's rebirth, he firmly believed that in the previous Huaxia national teams, the team with the strongest strength and the best mental outlook was the team that competed in the World Cup in 2002, Hao Haidong, Yang Chen, and Fan Zhiyi. , Li Weifeng, Sun Jihai, these well-known players are basically the peak representatives of Chinese football in that era. I dare not say anything else. At least their achievements, no one in Chinese football in the next ten years can surpass them.
As for Sun Jihai, Li Mu also quickly recalled some memories about him. Sun Jihai's position on the field was mainly a defender and a midfielder. At the end of the 20th century, he fought with Fan Zhiyi in the British League One. Later, he has been playing in the Premier League for many years. It's just that Li Mu didn't expect that the team that Sun Jihai played for in the Premier League was the Manchester City club already under his name.
This is so interesting. I have always wanted to acquire a Premier League club to provide a better stage for outstanding Chinese players in the future. I did not expect that there is now a Chinese player in the team.
Looking through the information about Sun Jihai, Li Mu smiled and said to Davidson: "It seems that buying Manchester City Club is really the right one."
Davidson said: "The Macmillan family has always been the major shareholder of Manchester United and the actual controller of Manchester United. Your Manchester City is in the same city as them. I think they will definitely target your club everywhere in the future."
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Manchester City's strength may be a lot worse than Manchester United this year, but I believe that next season, Manchester City will play Manchester United all over the place."
After that, Li Mu said to Davidson again: "Please help me arrange it. I want to go to Manchester in these two days."
"Go to Manchester?" Davidson waved his hand hastily and said, "Isn't it a good time to go to Manchester? Since you beat the George Macmillan family last time, the Macmillan family has been gnashing their teeth at you."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Could it be that if I go to Manchester, they will assassinate me?"
Davidson said with a serious face: "You have to be more careful in everything. With me, the Macmillan family dare not do anything to you, but if you go to Manchester, it's really hard to say, even if the Macmillan family does not dare to do anything to you. Whatever happens to you, George's son of a bitch may also find a chance against you."
Seeing that Li Mu doesn't seem to take his own words seriously,
Davidson added, "George, who looks like a dog, is actually a very sinister villain. Although there are few good things in these noble children in the UK, George is really the worst here. one of."
Li Mu nodded and said, "I will pay more attention. Since I am the owner of Manchester City now, I always have to visit my club."
Davidson had no choice but to say, "If that's the case, then I'll accompany you there when the time comes. We can drive directly from here, and the journey is not too far."
Li Mu said, "No problem. I brought my assistant and a few bodyguards with me and I'm not familiar with the place in the UK. It's more troublesome to toss. The best time is the next two days. You can arrange it."
Davidson immediately agreed and said, "Then let's set off early the day after tomorrow. I'll let the general manager of Manchester City know and say that their new boss is going to meet you the day after tomorrow."
Li Mu shook the contract in his hand and asked him, "No one outside should know that you gave me Manchester City Club, right?"
"Of course." Davidson said: "Apart from you, only a few core members of the Goldberg family know about it. The outside world thinks that the Goldberg family bought Manchester City to enter the football sports market. After all, the Goldberg family has always had golf in the industry. There is nothing surprising about this branch, the acquisition of a football club."
Li Mu asked with a smile, "How do the outsiders comment on the Goldberg family's acquisition of Manchester City?"
Davidson shrugged his shoulders and said: "Most of them are badmouthing, they think that the Goldberg family has no vision to buy Manchester City club, and it is really difficult for the Premier League Manchester City team at this stage to see the hope of rising, especially in Abu Dhabi. After making a big deal at Chelsea, the manager of Chelsea is now buying around £100m, and they want to add some fresh blood before the end of this month, before the summer transfer window closes."
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Abu can invest money, so can I; Chelsea can buy people everywhere, so can Manchester City."
...
After talking with Davidson, Li Mu began to prepare for his trip to Manchester City.
Since he didn't know much about the current Premier League in his memory, he shut himself in his room and studied the Premier League news all day.
He doesn't pay attention to Manchester City's current head coach and player lineup, nor does he pay attention to the changes of other teams in the new season. What he cares about is what big players can be introduced at this stage.
Messi is definitely out of the game. He has joined the Barcelona club in 2000, and has already shown his temperament of the king. Barcelona will not sell Messi at this time;
Ronaldinho also just joined Barcelona last month, and the contract is signed for five years. More importantly, after a few years, Ronaldinho's state will decline rapidly. Buy him at this time. nor wise;
And the superstar lineup of the 2002 World Cup is now dominated by Real Madrid. A large number of top players gather in Real Madrid, and Real Madrid will soon start his galaxy battleship career;
On the whole, Li Mu does not want to invest 100 million pounds on those top players who have become famous. Beckham’s transfer to Real Madrid in June is 35 million euros. If Li Mu chooses, he is definitely not willing to spend this money. On Beckham, after all, Ronaldo is now worth just over 10 million pounds, and this buddy has just turned 18 this year.
The thought of Cristiano Ronaldo made Li Mu anxious, because the news about him on Google showed that Manchester United are now actively communicating with the young teenager, intending to sign Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.
There will be many superstars in the future of football, but there are only two football players who can maintain a high level for more than ten consecutive years, one is Messi and the other is Ronaldo.
Now that I want to sign Messi, the price is too high, not only the price, but also whether Messi is willing to leave Barcelona. Messi participated in the youth training in Barcelona at the age of 13. Until Li Mu was reborn, this buddy was still in Barcelona. If you really want to dig him, even if the money is in place, it may not be useful.
On the contrary, Cristiano Ronaldo is the most cost-effective player now. He did not become famous as early as Messi. Now he is just a relatively good rookie. The price of more than 10 million pounds is almost a bargain for his grandma's house.
Whether it is Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi, such a top player needs a second-in-command with sufficient strength and cooperation awareness on the field. Looking back on Ronaldo's time at Manchester United, the most impressive thing for fans was the Manchester United Gemini at that time. It is the striker combination of Ronaldo and Rooney.
Li Mu remembered that Rooney joined Manchester United after Cristiano Ronaldo. It seems that it should be next year, so he checked the current situation of Rooney. This later English football genius, who is not yet 18 years old, is in Everton. Club performance.
The overall strength of Everton is currently almost half a catty to eight taels with Manchester City. They are both teams that are a little bit lower in the middle of the Premier League. If Rooney is introduced at a premium now, the price should not be too high, more than 1,000. 10,000 pounds is estimated to be about the same.
As long as these two youngsters are obtained, not only the future of Manchester City is promising, but it can also impede the development speed of Manchester United, because he is equivalent to digging the twin stars of Manchester United directly. , It is estimated that the combination of Manchester City's twin stars can make Manchester United cry.
Moreover, Li Mu always felt that relying on the Gemini stars alone was not enough. It is best to have another striker with super speed and directly form a striker trident with the Gemini stars. Just like Bell, he can pass the ball to himself after a few seconds. The speed is so fast that it is almost unmatched in football.
However, Bell is very young, and it is estimated that he is still in middle school now, and it will take at least four or five years to grow up slowly.
Thinking of this, another person suddenly appeared in Li Mu's mind. That man is Peter Pan, Robben.
Robben's fast speed and strong breakthrough ability are also very famous in football. The only weakness is that his physical fitness is slightly poor, so he has been plagued by injuries. Although Li Mu doesn't know much about the ball, he can probably imagine it. Out, if a player like Robben puts him on the first scoring point, then he must be strictly guarded by the opponent, and his speed is too fast to solve, so when the opponent defends him, the key You can only choose to foul at any time, and Robben has a slightly poorer physical fitness, is often fouled, and has a much greater chance of injury.
If you bring in Robben, combine with Ronaldo and Rooney, but position Robben as the second or third scoring point, let him take advantage of his speed, inability to cut inside from the flank, and excellent crosses Ability to provide support for Cristiano Ronaldo, then his possession time on the court and his attention will be greatly reduced. For him, this is also a disguised protection, because the degree of attention by opponents is reduced. The chance of injury is also reduced.
Taking Ronaldo as the absolute core, you must treat Ronaldo as a baby. Everything except scoring must be served by someone. Someone must organize, schedule and pass for him. , Some people control the ball for him, some people defend him, so it is not enough for Rooney and Ronaldo to cooperate with Ronaldo.
With such a "trident" in the frontcourt, and a strong midfield is needed, the team's offensive ability is basically stable.
Li Mu took a look at the current list of main players of Manchester City Club. Among the midfielders at this stage, he is more familiar with Wright Jr. and Wright Phillips. After meeting Chelsea, he was reduced to a substitute, and has not been able to develop since then.
Therefore, introducing a strong midfielder to Manchester City has become the top priority for Li Mu to consider next.
When he thought of Ronaldo's career, he thought of Ronaldo during Real Madrid, and he thought of a player who has worked with Ronaldo for a long time and is known as the world's top midfielder - Modric.
Li Mu searched for Modric on Google, and the results were very few, but on a very inconspicuous small website, he saw a quick news: Dinamo Zagreb Football Club, Luka Modric Qi is on loan to Bosnia and Herzegovina...
Being loaned to Bosnia and Herzegovina to play football, Modric's current worth should be very low, and it is estimated that a few million pounds can take him down.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Rooney, and Modric are all players born in 1985. They are just 18 years old this year. Robben is a player born in 1984. They are 19 years old this year. It is no longer buried gold, but a diamond covered in mud. If you can take down the four of them and cultivate them carefully, it will not take long for them to burst into a powerful fighting force.
If the team's coaching staff and defensive team are properly optimized, then Manchester City Club can become the top giant in the Premier League and even the whole of Europe.
Real Madrid's strategy is to put together a group of 25-year-old international superstars. Although this is very strong, each player's character and style have been determined. Not only can they not be well integrated, but there will be a certain amount of internal friction. However, if a group of 18-year-old rising stars are put together and let them grow together, the combined force that can be generated in the future is limitless!
