Episode [166]: The Corner Destined to Be Dug Out!

Sheffield, sunny.

The scorching sun was in the sky, but the cold wind was still blowing, and the slightest chill still invaded the earth.

In the club office building of Sheffield Wednesday.

Kramer sat in the chairman's office, staring at the team's head coach, the Dutchman Van Gaal, and asked very solemnly: "Louis, are you confident to win this game?"

For Leeds United, Kramer's heart is naturally full of hatred. These hatreds all come from that damned lunatic Roja, and Kramer still remembers the endless humiliation he endured in the shooting gallery. From that moment on, he made up his mind that he must trample Zhong Cheng under his feet in the field that Zhong Cheng is best at, so that he will never turn over!

Since taking over the Sheffield Wednesday team, he began to take revenge on Zhong Cheng, frantically poaching Leeds United, and took away Leeds United's top scorer and head star Huntelaar. This incident has always made Cramer very happy and very cool.

However, these are not enough!

Cramer must defeat Leeds United and trample Leeds United and Zhong Cheng under their feet!

Van Gaal knew what he meant on the chairman line, he nodded and said: "Boss, don't worry, we will win this game in Sheffield on Wednesday!"

Cramer was very happy to hear that, and shouted: "Okay! This is the result I want!"

Louis van Gaal said: "Although Leeds United is very powerful, our Sheffield Wednesday is not weak, and the main thing is that I have a way to deal with them!"

Cramer still believes in Van Gaal very much. Van Gaal's achievements in leading Sheffield Wednesday in the past two seasons are obvious to all, and he also helped Sheffield Wednesday introduce a lot of famous Dutch players, which made Sheffield Wednesday His fame was instantly hit out, even catching up to Leeds United, and even surpassing Leeds United.

Cramer is naturally very happy. He said: "As long as we can beat Leeds United this season, our club will spend at least 60 million pounds in signings next season. Next season, I hope the team can completely surpass Leeds. Leeds United, let us be the only face of Yorkshire football for Sheffield Wednesday!"

Van Gaal took a deep breath. It's okay to beat Leeds United once, and it's easy. But it is really not easy to surpass Leeds United. This is an extremely determined task. However, Van Gaal is happy to accept such a task, it is only fun if it is challenging!

Van Gaal said directly: "Boss, don't worry, I am confident to complete the task!"

Cramer couldn't help nodding, with a smile on his face. He was very, very satisfied with Van Gaal, so he reached out and patted Van Gaal on the shoulder.

Suddenly, Cramer said again: "Louis, what do you think of Ribery of Leeds United?"

Van Gaal's eyes tightened and his heart trembled. He suddenly understood what Kramer wanted to do?

Van Gaal immediately said: "This is a super-strength player. Although he has some problems this season and is injured now. But these can't obliterate the fact that he is a super talent. I believe, wait for him After recovering from injury, he will shock the world again!"

The corner of Cramer's mouth raised slightly, and he said, "I didn't expect Louis to be so optimistic about Ribery."

Van Gaal immediately asked: "Boss, are we going to introduce this French star?"

Cramer nodded and said: "Yes, we currently have this idea. It can not only strengthen our strength, but also disintegrate the foundation of Leeds United. This is what I am most happy to do!"

Van Gaal was overjoyed first, being able to let Ribery bring it over, this is naturally a super happy thing. But then Van Gaal's face darkened, was Ribery so easy to introduce?

Van Gaal said: "Boss, Ribery is not easy to introduce at all. I think we should be unlikely to introduce him! Leeds United will definitely not let him go!"

Cramer said with a chuckle: "Louis, don't worry, we have plenty of money. When the time comes, we can just pay the liquidated damages directly. Does he, the lunatic Luo Ya, agree or not?"

Van Gaal was slightly taken aback and took a breath. Franck Ribery's liquidated damages are definitely not low, and Kramer is preparing to bring in Franck Ribery with a lot of blood.

At this time, Van Gaal was thinking about whether it was worth spending so much money to introduce Ribery to the ground. With so much money, Van Gaal has attracted several other high-quality players in the transfer market.

However, seeing the joy of his boss, Van Gaal didn't mention this, and didn't disturb Kramer's interest.

Kramer glanced at Van Gaal, he could see what Van Gaal was thinking, he said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, I, Kramer, lack everything except money!"

After finishing speaking, Cramer patted Van Gaal on the shoulder, and then it was amazing.

Looking at Cramer's back, Van Gaal was taken aback for a moment, and then swears: "Damn, it's good to have money!"

━━━Separation line━━━

Leeds, the weather is fine!

The weather in Leeds is pretty good, not too cold, and extremely warm under the scorching sun.

In the Leeds United club building.

Zhong Cheng was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the office, looking into the distance through the transparent glass!

For the Sheffield Wednesday team, Zhong Cheng is not particularly worried, although this team has performed very well over the past year, and their results are also very good. But there is still a gap in strength between Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds United, and it's not small.

Now, Zhong Cheng is not worried about this game, but about the Leeds United players.

Now that Leeds United is performing so well, there are more and more clubs staring at their team, and more and more people want to poach the corner of Leeds United.

Zhong Cheng is not afraid of other teams at all, what he is afraid of is Barcelona!

Yes, now there is news that the Barcelona club has taken a fancy to Pique and wants to get Pique back to the Barcelona club.

Pique has been a Barcelona fan since he was a child, and their family is a Barcelona fan. He has a deep and special feeling for Barcelona, ​​and Pique couldn't refuse Barcelona's call.

Although, Leeds United has not yet received inquiries and offers from Barcelona Club. But Zhong Cheng has already realized the crisis!

Even if Barcelona didn't take a fancy to Pique this season, what about next season?

Pique's performance in Leeds United is getting better and better and more stable. He is now a top-ranked central defender in the Premier League and seems to have matured. Will FC Barcelona be tempted?

Moreover, the Barcelona club's defense is also about to be rebuilt, and new players are needed to step up. A young man like Pique who came out of the La Masia youth training camp will naturally be loved by the Barcelona club.

Therefore, the rumors from the outside world may not be true!

Therefore, Zhong Cheng would have such and such worries at this time. Pique is very important to Leeds United, and the defense formed by him and Kompany is simply impenetrable.

Suddenly, Zhong Cheng turned around and asked, "Brendan, what do you think is the chance of Gerrard leaving?"

Rogers frowned slightly, thought carefully for a while, and then said: "Boss, we don't realize how deep the lads from La Masia have for Barcelona. But I believe that they will never reject the Barcelona club." Summoned!"

Hearing Rogers' words, Zhong Cheng sighed!

Why didn't he know it himself? In fact, Zhong Cheng had already thought of such a day when Pique was poached away, but he just didn't expect it to come so soon.

Think about Cesc Fabregas in later generations, how high he is in the Arsenal team, how much Arsene Wenger thinks highly of him, etc., but when faced with the call of the Barcelona club, he still chose without hesitation Barcelona...

Pique's feelings for Barcelona are definitely not weaker than Cesc Fabregas, so Zhong Cheng didn't intend to persuade Pique at all, he knew it was useless.

Zhong Cheng knew that Pique would leave Leeds United sooner or later!

Now that Zhong Cheng doesn't care about it, at least Pique is still a member of his own club this season. Of course, Zhong Cheng is also about to start preparing. After Pique leaves Leeds United, who will be Kompany's first partner.

Vermaelen is doing well, but it seems that he often suffers minor injuries and is sidelined from time to time, which is very unfavorable for a stable central defender combination.

It seems that Vermaelen is not suitable to form a fixed central defender combination with Kompany, so only Ivanovic and Gary Cahill are left. The strength of these two people is still about the same, but Gary Cahill is more ferocious and fierce.

Ivanovic, on the other hand, is more versatile. He can play in all positions on the defense line, especially as a full-back.

In the future, Leeds United will have David Luiz return, and the partnership between David Luiz and Kompany is also very good. However, now Zhong Cheng still thinks that Kompany and Gary Cahill are more suitable partners.

Of course, for now, Leeds United's main central defender combination is Pique and Kompany. But Zhong Cheng felt that it would be an opportunity for Kompany and Gary Cahill to have more partners in the following games, laying a solid foundation for Pique to leave. When Pique really wants to leave, Gary Cahill will be able to connect seamlessly.

Zhong Cheng made up his mind and let the matter of Pique go.

Zhong Cheng suddenly turned around and said to Rogers: "How are you preparing for the match against Sheffield Wednesday? We can't lose this match!"

This game is not only because of chasing Manchester United, but also because the opponent of this game is Sheffield Wednesday, which is the damn Kramer's team.

Rogers nodded firmly, and said: "Boss, don't worry, we have made all preparations, and our Leeds United will win this game!"

Zhong Cheng nodded, he has great trust in Rogers!
