Chapter 690 2011 Winter Transfer ① (Ask for a Monthly Ticket)

After losing to Wolves, Chelsea ranked fifth in the league. Although they are only 3 points away from third-placed Manchester City and fourth-placed Arsenal, there is still great hope for the top four in the league.

However, from the goal of competing for the championship to now competing for the fourth place with the four-treasure player Arsenal and the newly promoted local tycoon Manchester City, this gap is not small.

The media predicted big changes for Chelsea.

"The Sun" even said conclusively that Ancelotti may dismiss get out of class at any time.

Three days later, the third round of the FA Cup started in full swing.

Fang Jue rotated almost all the main players in the FA Cup match, and all substitute players such as Stroman, Sidwell, Albrighton, Danny Rose, Kyle Walker, and Siren Clarke all started.

Aston Villa's opponent, Sheffield United, is currently in the relegation zone of the English Championship. They also have a large rotation in this game, and they obviously have no interest in the FA Cup.

In the end, the bench players from both sides competed.

Aston Villa beat Sheffield United 4-1 away.

Fang Jue's first-team Vardy, who was temporarily transferred from the reserve team, came off the bench during the game.

And scored his first goal in the Aston Villa first team at the last moment of the game.

Fang Jue has always been concerned about Vardy.

Although Vardy's performance in the reserve team cannot be said to be amazing, it can be seen that this player has been improving and is trying to adapt to high-level games.

Currently in the Reserve League, Vardy has played twelve games, with four goals and two assists.

For a player who had only played in the amateur league before, this performance can be said to be very good.

After playing the FA Cup game, Vardy returned to the reserve team again.

Fang Jue has arrangements for Vardy. This player will train in the reserve team first, and he can be properly promoted to the first team for training in the cup.

As for Vardy, I don't feel in a hurry. After one or two seasons of training, when Shevchenko and Ronaldo complete their "mission" in the first team, they can just take over.

At that time, Costa will compete with Abanglahor and Vardy for the two main positions, and will introduce a young substitute, so the striker will have no worries.

...

The media had previously reported that Chelsea would make a big move.

After the FA Cup game, Chelsea's big move emerged, not the news of Ancelotti's dismissal.

England's major media broke the news almost at the same time, after Chelsea failed to buy Torres last summer, they once again launched an attack on Liverpool's Spanish golden boy this winter.

"Fifty million pounds! Chelsea vowed to take Torres!"

"Guardian" reported for the first time, Torres and Liverpool's renewal contract has a termination clause of 50 million pounds, Chelsea is ready to smash the termination fee of 50 million pounds to dig Torres.

At first, Liverpool fans didn't pay much attention to the report.

Even if the release clause exists, however, the first condition is that Torres decides to leave before the clause will take effect.

Considering that Torres just renewed his contract with Liverpool last summer, Liverpool fans are not too worried about this.

"Torres has officially submitted a transfer application to Liverpool Club!"

On January 11, in the semi-final of the League Cup, Aston Villa drew 2-2 away with West Ham United.

Diego Costa passed and shot in the game, laying a good foundation for Aston Villa to reach the final.

After the game, the team returned to the hotel on the bus, and the news was played.

Fang Jue glanced at it, but didn't care too much about it. He didn't care much about Chelsea's affairs. Currently, Chelsea is 17 points behind Aston Villa. The Blues have already withdrawn from the league title competition ahead of schedule.

Chelsea's current situation, even if Torres is bought, will not pose any threat to Aston Villa.

Therefore, Fang Jue watched Torres' transfer to Chelsea with the mentality of watching the excitement.

Torres' move to Chelsea is progressing rapidly.

Angry Liverpool fans started burning Torres' number nine jersey after Spain's golden boy submitted a transfer request.

In the case of the player's intention to go, Liverpool's American owner Henry finally nodded and agreed to Chelsea's transfer offer of 50 million pounds.

On January 15, Chelsea officially announced that the team had acquired Liverpool's Spanish striker Torres for a price of 50 million pounds.

This transfer deal shocked the entire European football world.

This is the most expensive deal in winter transfer history.

The transfer fee of 50 million pounds also created a record for the highest transfer fee within the Premier League.

When the drama ended, Fang Jue watched it with gusto.

On January 16, the 23rd round of the Premier League.

Birmingham derby.

Aston Villa faced their rivals in the same city in the away game. Relying on the goals of Shevchenko and Ronaldo, they took the lead twice, but were tenaciously tied twice by Birmingham.

The two sides eventually played to a two-two tie.

Not only that, a conflict broke out between the two sides during the game, and Aston Villa captain Deisler was sent off with a red card.

Ballack also left the game injured.

It can be said to be a very tragic derby.

The media is concerned that after Aston Villa's draw in this round, the league's unbeaten games have reached 48 games.

As long as they don't lose in their next game, they will tie Arsenal's unbeaten record of 49 games.

Moreover, it is very interesting and coincident that Aston Villa's opponent in the next league game is Arsenal:

Aston Villa will challenge Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium!

"Arsenal will face the opportunity to defend their honor!"

"This is a script that even a novelist can't write!"

The media is excited.

The Premier League broadcaster also announced in advance that the match between Aston Villa and Arsenal will be broadcast live globally.

Fang Jue attaches great importance to this game. In his opinion, this is not just a chance to tie Arsenal's unbeaten record.

If the team can defeat Arsenal, which has to defend its honor, it can also be regarded as another symbol of Aston Villa's strong rise to some extent.

The new king always steps on the corpse of the old king to ascend the throne!

...

Vera training base.

"what is this?"

As soon as he arrived at the office, Fang Jue saw two documents on the desk.

After flipping through it, Fang Jue's face darkened.

Two documents, one is a purchase fax sent by Liverpool, Liverpool officially purchase Aston Villa striker Diego Costa.

After losing Torres, Liverpool urgently need to sign up at the front line, and their goal is Diego Costa.

Fang Jue is not surprised that a team has taken a fancy to Costa, and he is a little surprised by Liverpool's purchase, but it is not surprising.

What made his face change and his mood was another document.

This is a transfer application submitted by Diego Costa to the club.

Obviously, Liverpool's bid for Costa and Costa's transfer application are definitely not isolated incidents.

It is conceivable that Liverpool has had private contact with Costa or Costa's agent Mendes, and has received a positive response and even a promise.

Then, Costa submitted this transfer application.

Fang Jue was furious.

He picked up the phone and dialed the number, which was Costa's agent, Mendes.

The grandpa of the child attacked suddenly, turning his elbow outward!

...

When Fang Jue's call came, Mendes was walking his baby to enjoy the sun.

Marina's child is over one year old, the little guy has red lips and white teeth, so handsome.

The old man looked at his grandson with love in his eyes.

At this time, Mendez's cell phone rang.

Seeing the caller number, Mendes snorted and hung up.

The bell rang firmly again.

Mendes hung up again.

The bell rang again.

Mendes pinched the tender face of his precious grandson, "Santiago, do you want to pick it up?"

Santiago is the name of the little guy, and his full name is Santiago Joseph Mendes.

Joseph came from Mendez's grandparents' name, Santiago was the name Marina insisted on, and Mendez seriously suspected that was someone's name for the child.

Little Santiago raised his tender little hand and pointed to the cell phone that kept beeping.

"Little heartless." Mendes glared at his precious grandson, picked up the phone, and pressed the answer button.
