Chapter 213 The Decision of the Winter Transfer
With the release of the UCL Journal and the reprints of research papers in various professional academic journals, more and more people know the news, and the influence of research papers is gradually spreading, and soon many big media know it. After receiving the news, they all began to mention in their reports that Wansheng released new research progress, and many professionals in the fields of medicine and kinesiology also began to carefully study the actual content of this paper.
At the same time, as a writer of research papers, Wan Sheng ignored the progress of the influence of his papers and devoted himself to leading the team.
In October, Manchester City's schedule was too dense.
After the League Cup with Arsenal, when the media "sarcastic" Arsenal and Manchester City's "harmonious" aftermath in the League Cup has not passed, Manchester City has ushered in a new opponent - Newcastle United.
In the past two years, Newcastle United have been in disputes and contradictions. Several incidents have had a significant impact on them. In the summer of 2004, Newcastle fell into infighting, and the old Robson had a relationship with the team's top star Alan Shearer. Contradictions, and eventually the old Robson was forced to leave the team, Souness took office.
However, the arrival of Souness did not succeed in quelling the contradictions within the team.
In the 2004-05 season, infighting became the most striking phenomenon in Newcastle. Bowyer and Dyer faced each other on the court. Bellamy and Robert publicly accused Souness. The contradiction in the locker room also led to a sharp decline in the performance of Newcastle United. .
Last season, Newcastle's state continued to be sluggish, and their performance plummeted. Souness was finally dismissed and the former West Ham coach Rodel took over. Under his leadership, Newcastle somewhat stopped the decline, but as a veteran powerhouse in England, it is still difficult to explain the result of only 7th.
This season is destined to be a milestone season for Newcastle. Alan Shearer, the legendary striker in the club's history, announced to hang up his boots before the season, but with the gradual role of Michael Owen, the gradual maturity of the young talents of Dyer and Janus, and the gradual maturity of Damien Duff. Waiting for the arrival of strong aid, Newcastle is still very much expected by the English media.
But no matter how committed Newcastle United's board is. No matter how hard the club works. They always seem to be linked to bad news, and as recently as August, there was unfortunate news from Newcastle United, and it was the attention of Michael Owen's injury.
Irving was seriously injured just minutes into the German World Cup group stage between England and Sweden and was taken off the field on a stretcher. After immediately travelling to the United States for medical treatment, there was a definitive result - Owen was expected to be ready on 11th. Monthly comeback, Newcastle coach Rodel said frankly a few days ago. Irving may miss the pitch this season.
Owen's accidental injury made Newcastle striker immediately stretched. Coach Rodell admitted that the current lack of strikers is unlikely to be resolved in a short period of time.
"Irving's injury needs to rest for a long time, I don't know if he (Irving) can still play in the new season. Irving is getting the best treatment, and the best doctor in the world will operate on him. However, Irving's injury needs It will take a while to recover, and if we have to predict when he will come back, it will be February at the earliest, and if he still can't come back by then, then we will be in big trouble."
There is no need to 'anticipate' at all. Now the big trouble is in front of us, Newcastle United have only won three games in the first eleven rounds. Ranked 15th in the league table, they are almost on the verge of relegation. The most important problem is the weakness of the striker. Without Alan Schiller and Michael Owen, there is almost no one in Newcastle United's striker who can provoke the lead.
Before the match with Manchester City, Newcastle United had been without a victory in seven consecutive rounds. This away game against Manchester City was also regarded by the media as a 'must lose' game.
"If you want to beat Manchester City, Rodl's Newcastle United is not qualified." British Sky Sports commentator, former English football superstar Lineker said, "If I were Rodl, I would give up the game in advance, with the current situation. Manchester City's momentum, they can't lose at home to Newcastle United, which is weak in scoring, especially the state of several Manchester City frontcourt players is very brave, perhaps Rodel should consider how the team can lose a few goals less."
Apparently, Rodel was also wise.
He is very aware of the gap between his team and Manchester City. The two teams are almost in two states-Manchester City is in good shape and red, while Newcastle United is in a downturn. This time it is an away game, so Rodel rationally put Bellamy The two generals, Sibilski, were placed on the bench, let them rest for a round, and then used a semi-substitute lineup to play against Manchester City.
However, Rodell has a lot of defensive arrangements. Perhaps as Lineker said, "Newcastle United should pay more attention to defense, and Rodell needs to consider losing a few goals less", so Newcastle United has done a very good job in defense. .
Except for a few chances in the opening and the final time, Manchester City had no way to take the intensive defense of Newcastle United. Although Manchester City has been suppressing, the scene is also very good for Manchester City fans, but in the end, Manchester City only relied on Ivan - Crewe's set-piece scored a goal.
The game ended 1:0.
This kind of score is a bit regrettable for Manchester City, which is at home, but Wansheng is in a good mood after the game, because the team is actually in a good state. There will be a good way, and he simply has players like Ivan Crew under him.
Ivan Kru’s performance this season has not been outstanding last season. This may be a problem with his personal state, or it may also be related to the outbreak of other teams in the team. On the whole, as a full-back, Ivan Kru Lu's performance is not bad. He can cooperate well with his teammates and create opportunities for them, but he himself has not scored goals.
However, this situation has changed recently. In the tenth and eleventh rounds of the league, Ivan Kru scored a goal each, especially in the eleventh round, Ivan Kru scored a free kick. Now It is another free kick, all the leagues added together, Ivan Crewe has scored four goals for the team, three of which are direct free kicks.
This efficiency has met Wansheng's expectations.
In fact, Ivan Crewe's abilities in other areas are somewhat mediocre, and he can only be regarded as a qualified main player. Wansheng values his ability to score from set-pieces. Whether Anelka or Murray is in the team S, David - Silva or Downing, Joey - Barton, Darren - Bent. The quality of these front-field players is not bad, but they are not very good at scoring goals from free kicks. Ivan Crewe is very prominent and important in this regard, just like this game, when Newcastle United defended the whole line. Even if the team's offensive tactics play "various tricks", it is difficult to find good opportunities. And a free kick from Ivan Crewe directly decided the outcome of the game.
That's what Wansheng needs, and that's why Ivan Krew is a main draft player.
In contrast, Sinclair, who was still the main force of the team last season, has very good ability and experience, but he has no outstanding place, nor does the team need the ability. So he was destined to be a substitute.
at the post-match press conference. Wansheng also brought Ivan Crewe. He hoped that Ivan Crewe would receive more attention. Compared to others like Morris, Anelka, David Silva, etc., Ivan - Crewe doesn't have many opportunities to appear in the media, which is mainly due to his personal problems - he does not have a star face, and his performance on the field when he does not score is very mediocre. He belongs to the kind of person who is easy to be ignored, Like Darren Bent. Goals have always been ignored, and the game has always been underrated. Ivan Crewe is that type of player too.
"He's one of my favorite players."
Wan Sheng praised Ivan Crewe, "I knew Ivan when I was an assistant coach at Derby County. He was just an ordinary player at the time, but I saw his potential. Players in the top leagues."
"He has an extremely rare talent in set pieces, more than everyone in the team, yes, I'm talking about everything, including David, including Lee or Nikolai, in short, he is unique in the team. , he's like Manchester City's David Beckham, sorry for saying that, but I think David Beckham's importance to Manchester United is unquestionable." This sentence will definitely be missed David Beckham Ham's Manchester United fans like it, but Manchester United manager Ferguson may be uncomfortable, but Wansheng said that, he was just praising Ivan Crewe, "He's a genius! Maybe he's not as good as David Beckham. Mum, but I'm sure he'll score more goals for the team in the future!"
After that, Wan Sheng left the press conference, leaving time to Ivan Crewe.
This is a chance for Ivan Kru to become famous. There are not many players who can be treated like this by Wansheng, but Ivan Kru deserves this.
. .
After the match with Newcastle United, Manchester City soon ushered in a new opponent, which is still a home game.
With Fulham's strength, it was considered a big victory last season to avoid relegation, but coach Coleman just took the team to a high position in 11th place, which is related to his tactic of 'protecting the home and letting go'.
Fulham's strong attack at home is shocking. Liverpool and Chelsea have become their losers, but they are too fragile on the road, and they are completely at the moment of passive beating, but in general, Chairman Fayets and Coleman should be Satisfied with such a team ranking.
As an internationally renowned tycoon, Fayed has been hesitant to invest in football, and it is impossible for the team to sell players like Saha every year in exchange for liquidity. Fulham's efforts continue to be biased in this season's transfer. Weak, Coleman can only bite the bullet and use the old lineup to cope with the new season.
result. . Fulham's situation can be imagined.
Like Newcastle United, they have become a team on the verge of relegation, and even worse than Newcastle United, Fulham's results are even worse, they only ranked 16th in the Premier League, only by virtue of goal difference to not fall to 17th.
In this game against Manchester City, Coleman continued to use his own strategy--keep the home and let the visitors go, and in the away game, especially the away game against Manchester City, he let the team directly choose to give up, and the offense was incompetent. , In terms of defense, they also played a mess. As a result, Manchester City won another 4-0 victory. Anelka, Morris, Dunn and even Ozil who came off the bench each scored a goal, which is worth a It is mentioned that this is Ozil's first league goal since his transfer to Manchester City.
When Ozil scored, the Manchester City fans applauded him.
The live broadcast Berbat also gave a special explanation to Ozil, "The player who just scored is Mesut Ozil, a teenager from Gelsenkirchen, Germany, who is only 18 years old this year. Perhaps many people remember that European In the third round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester City vs. Real Madrid, Ozil scored the decisive game. Although many people say it was a lucky ball, but the goal belongs to Ozil! In important games, he scored key goals, and now he has scored his first goal in the Premier League. We hope that the German teenager will grow at Manchester City."
"There is no doubt. His future is infinitely bright!"
Among Berbat's praise for Ozil. The Manchester City fans in the audience also sent blessings to the German teenager with applause.
At the same time, Wansheng is also very happy.
Watching the team's youngsters score goals in this official professional league represents their growth. Ozil is one of the players he is most looking forward to. Now Ozil is still very young, and he will still participate in the competition. A little nervous, but over time. With the accumulation of experience. He believes that Ozil will become more and more mature, and he will become the pillar star of the team. Then when the team faces the competition again, he will have more choices, and the team's results will get better and better. .
. .
After this game against Fulham, Manchester City has achieved a four-game winning streak in the league, which is very happy, but the post-match press conference. The trouble is that the questions raised by the media have nothing to do with the game.
Perhaps it is no surprise that Manchester City beat Fulham at home. Or maybe the influence of Wansheng's research papers has expanded to a certain extent. In short, these sports media who came to interview the game seem to have suddenly become fanatical pursuers of science, and the questions raised are all related to Wansheng's research. thesis related.
"Mr. Wan Sheng, can you talk about the latest research progress?"
"Professor Meier-Green from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology believes that your research is trans-generational and will bring great progress in sports medicine. What do you think of this?"
"Professor JORETORY believes that your research is absurd, there are some things in it that cannot be verified, and the 'practical application' is completely nonsense. What do you think about it?"
"Can you elaborate on your research?"
"That really helps athletes respond quickly?"
"Can you talk about any other developments in the research area?"
"..."
For these questions, Wan Sheng has a big head. He does not refuse interviews on his own research, but the target is definitely not these sports media, because he knows that these people are just reporting news, mainly because the researcher is him. , and not anyone else, so talking to them doesn't make sense at all.
He didn't have to rely on this to increase his fame.
So Wansheng just said indifferently, "I only answer questions related to the game." After that, the scene was silent.
Wan Sheng glanced at the scene, stood up and chose to leave.
When he walked out the door, the reporters on the scene were noisy, and various discussions broke out, "Look at it! Looking at his attitude, I don't know how to answer at all! Maybe his research is fake!"
"Who knows! He doesn't understand his research at all!"
"That's how he confuses people!"
Of course, there are also people who speak for Wan Sheng, "Wan Sheng can't do this, he has no reason, I think his research is true, but he just doesn't want to answer here."
"Yes, many experts have affirmed his research!"
"..."
Wansheng doesn't care about these. In fact, after the game, he began to consider the issue of winter transfers.
At present, the team's lineup is not bad, but it is also necessary to add players. A player must be added in the frontcourt, otherwise there will be an accident, and the team will have a personnel crisis. Time is approaching the high-injury period, and no one can guarantee the ball. The team has no injuries.
In addition, there is one player that must be dealt with, and that is Joey Barton.
Since the last time Joey Barton broke the news in the media about the hospital he left, and then was suspended for a red card, Joey Barton has begun to reveal his 'bad boy genes' that he's been holding back for a season, and he has frequently exploded off the court. Bad news-going to nightclubs, fighting, speeding, openly appearing in the public eye with prostitutes, etc. In fact, Wansheng can bear these private life style problems, after all, it is the player's private life , as long as it doesn't affect his normal training and state, he doesn't want to pay too much attention to it. What is unbearable is that Joey Barton starts to be late frequently in his normal training. Maybe he is testing his bottom line, or he doesn't care about Manchester City anymore. .
In short, Wansheng has been completely disappointed with Joey Barton.
So taking advantage of the approaching winter transfer, Wansheng plans to get rid of Joey Barton, and by the way also has the funds to buy suitable players to supplement the depth of the bench.
"Price is not a problem, just leave!"
This is the standard of Wansheng.
So soon, the media released the news that "Joey Barton will leave Manchester City during the winter transfer period". This news was released by Wansheng on the initiative. The authenticity of the news is very reliable. Be disciplined, like Joey Barton himself said to leave.
But in fact, Joey Barton himself was taken aback by the news! (To be continued ~^~)
