Chapter 698 2011 Winter Transfer ④ (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)

At the post-match press conference, the focus of the media was on Fang Jue, who led Aston Villa to tie Arsenal's 49-match unbeaten record.

All kinds of words of praise and flattery surrounded him without money.

This snubbed home team Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger aside.

The professor had a calm expression and watched all this with great restraint.

Fang Jue was still thoughtful, he shifted the topic to Arsenal, praising the glory of Arsenal's unbeaten record of forty-nine games that year.

"I was very surprised when I saw this news on the TV news." Fang Jue said with a smile, "I thought at the time, it's amazing."

After praising the past Arsenal, Fang Jue began to praise today's Arsenal again. He praised Arsenal for playing well today. If it wasn't for the lack of time, Arsenal might have tied the score.

Although some reporters curled their lips, even if Arsenal equalized the score and Aston Villa's three-pointer became one point, they would still tie Arsenal's unbeaten record of forty-nine games.

However, in any case, Wenger, who lost the game, was very self-cultivated, and Fang Jue, who won the game and tied the record, was also very graceful.

At the end of the press conference, Fang Jue and Wenger shook hands and hugged.

It looks harmonious.

As for what the two parties were thinking, there was no way of knowing.

After the press conference, the Aston Villa team left the stadium and returned to the hotel where they were staying to rest.

The media got the news that the Aston Villa club had prepared an internal dinner at the hotel where they stayed to celebrate the team's record of tying Arsenal.

Emirates Stadium.

The Arsenal fans had already exited the stadium and the players left in buses.

Only the staff are checking the turf maintenance and the cleaners are cleaning the litter from the stands.

Wenger put his hands in his trouser pockets, did not speak, and just paced around the sidelines alone.

He bent down and touched the turf of the field.

"The turf is good and the pitch is beautiful." A voice sounded behind Wenger, "However, we are still more used to and miss Highbury."

The professor turned his head to look, and was stunned for a moment. He clapped his hands and wiped off the grass clippings, "You guys are here."

Arsenal club official website photographer Wilton pressed the shutter, clicked, and took a picture.

In the empty Emirates Stadium, 61-year-old Wenger stood there with deep wrinkles on his face. In front of him were 41-year-old Bergkamp, ​​37-year-old Pires, 41-year-old Lai Man, at the far end, thirty-three-year-old Henry was walking slowly with two people.

In the empty stands, a banner slogan was faintly visible: Arsenal, this cannot continue

...

In the newspaper published the next day, almost all the headlines belonged to Aston Villa, who were unbeaten in 49 league games.

Diego Costa, who scored four goals alone, and head coach Fang Jue.

The photo of the two is the most frequently used photo on the front page.

Even though they only tied Arsenal's record, in today's Premier League, Fang Jue and his team are enough to make everyone admire and admire him.

I can't exaggerate.

Fang Jue gave the team players half a day off.

There are fewer first-team players in the training base, and it is obviously much quieter.

Fang Jue didn't have a holiday, the players could have a holiday and rest, but the coach didn't have a rest.

"Did Liverpool answer?" Fang Jue asked.

Just after yesterday's game, Aston Villa issued an ultimatum to Liverpool:

Costa's transfer fee is 50 million pounds, not less than a penny.

Liverpool gave a hearty word, if they are willing to spend the money, the transfer will be completed; without this courage, the transfer negotiations will be terminated.

Aston Villa asked Liverpool to give an answer within 24 hours.

...

"What do you think of Villa's announcement?" Liverpool boss Henry asked.

Even for such a large-scale negotiation of 50 million pounds, the big boss of the United States did not come in person. He participated in the meeting through a video call.

"The news we got is that Costa scored four goals in yesterday's game, which made Fang Jue regret it. He hesitated and didn't want to sell Costa." The club's sports director Comoli said.

"It's possible." Michael Edwards, the club's director of technical analysis, said, "We have also received news from our side that Costa's agent Mendes' enthusiasm for promoting the transfer has also faded. It is said that Mendes' My daughter came forward to communicate and helped Fang Jue persuade Mendes not to continue pushing for a transfer."

"It's Marina Mendes who has a good relationship with Fang Jue's wife. He is Mendes' daughter." Gordon said to the big boss Henry.

"How about the coach, what's your opinion?" Henry asked Dalglish.

The old man was silent all the time, he was turning the pen silently. The technique of turning the pen was very bad, and he failed after earning two laps, but he enjoyed it very much.

"My opinion has always been clear," Dalglish said loudly. "I want Costa."

"Mr Dalglish, we have spoken before and you agree that Carroll is an option," Comolly said.

"Yes, I admit that I agree to consider Carol, and that young man is indeed good." Dalglish said angrily, "However, Costa has the highest priority."

"What did Newcastle say?" Gordon asked.

"That miser in Ashley offered 35 million pounds and refused to accept a price reduction." Edwards said, "Although the Villars are also greedy for Costa's price of 50 million pounds, but the conclusion of my analysis here is that Costa more reliable."

"Gordon stays, others can leave." In the video window, Henry said.

After the others left, Gordon closed the door.

"The thing is obvious. Now they all know that we have sold Torres for 50 million pounds. Therefore, the asking price is very high, and they are not willing to lower the price."

At this time, Edwards, the director of technical analysis who had just left, quietly pushed the door in. Compared with Comolli of the General Administration of Sports, this young man is more trusted by the big American boss.

"Moreover, it is very important that neither Costa nor Carroll, Aston Villa and Newcastle have any reason to sell." Edwards said, "Even if Costa offered a transfer invitation, but, The news we got is that the relationship between him and Fang Jue has not been affected, as long as Fang Jue actively persuades, Costa may withdraw his decision to transfer and leave."

"So, that means we have to spend money to get players, and both Aston Villa and Newcastle understand that."

"Michael, what's your opinion?" Henry asked.

"I choose Costa. This player is in very good condition and is the top scorer in the Premier League." Edwards said, "This is Costa's second Premier League season. He has adapted to the Premier League. Mr. Coach has a word that I am very happy Agree, from the tactical position, in the current competitive state, Costa is more useful than Torres."

"As for the price of 50 million pounds, it is indeed high." Edwards said, "However, this is the best choice under the current circumstances. It is difficult to find a more suitable player for a winter transfer."

The two of them have finished what they should say, and now it's up to the big boss Henry's decision.

"Greedy Brit, they're all staring at my money." Henry cursed angrily.

"Ashley is British, Fang Jue is Chinese." Gordon reminded.

"They're all guys staring at my purse." Henry got angry, and after a while, he finally said, "Don't consider the money factor, Costa for Torres, do you think it's worth it?"

"It's hard to say." This is Gordon, "But Costa is really good."

"It's worth it!" This is Edwards, and his position has always been firm.

"Inform Dalglish that his request has been satisfied." Henry pondered for a few more minutes before finally making a decision, "I hope our 50 million pounds can show value."

...

That evening.

Vera training base.

After finishing the training in the afternoon, the players have left the training base.

The lights in the conference room of the office building remained on.

Including head coach and owner Fang Jue, club chairman Leiberto, club vice chairman Evelyn Papa Karina, club chief executive Bob Clark, club general manager Byron, club technical director John Pieter Si and others gathered together.

Clark's cell phone rang.

After a simple call, Clark hung up the phone and said happily, "The Liverpool people have agreed, and the fax of the offer of 50 million pounds has been sent."

The high-level Villars in the conference room cheered, except Leiberto, who winked at Fang Jue and moved his lips: dog capitalist.

Fang Jue ignored this guy.

"I'll announce next." Miss Papa knocked on the table, "Three things."

"Strive to accelerate the completion of Costa's transfer process, and Mr. Clark will be responsible for this."

"The negotiations with Ajax on the transfer of the Uruguayan should also be accelerated. Mr. Byron is responsible for this, and Mr. Peters is also involved in the negotiations."

"There is one last thing." Papa turned to look at her husband.

"Leave it to me." Fang Jue smiled, "Everything is ready, and I have been waiting for the money from Liverpool."

...

After the meeting.

Miss Papa made Fang Jue a cup of coffee.

Leiberto knocked on the table, "Papa, mine."

"Don't pay attention to this guy." Fang Jue said angrily.

Miss Papa was used to bickering between the two, and she also made a cup of coffee for Leiberto.

"Still calling?" Leiberto said to Fang Jue.

"Whether I call or not is none of your business."

"Ha, I already knew you were thinking about this." Reberto had a look of seeing through everything, "Last summer, Real Madrid wanted to poach the Croatian, and Fatty Li was thinking about agreeing to the offer. , However, if you said that it is not suitable for you to go to a wealthy family, the Croats listened to you and chose to stay in Ibiza."

"Fatty Li also noticed it. At that time, he complained that you are the most insidious one."

"I understand this as slander from jealousy." Fang Jue crossed his legs, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed a number, "Luka, it's me."
