212. Boateng who wants to go
The Croydon guys were all familiar faces, very familiar faces. They all greeted Wen Sheng affectionately. Wen Sheng noticed that Amy Traore was not there, so he casually asked Hawking.
"I just found out that this guy stopped playing! He injured his ankle and stopped playing after he recovered!" Hawking said.
"Oh..." Wen Sheng understood that Traore's family was in a bad situation and he didn't dare to mess with his body. This time the injury was healed, but what about next time? He might not be so lucky.
Hawking continued to ask Wen Sheng why he wanted to come here today. Wen Sheng said quietly: "Klose agreed to join the team!"
"Really?!" Hawking was also very happy.
"Is it true? He called me himself. Is this fake? But everything depends on Peter's performance. I think the problem is not big. There is a 90% chance that he will join us!"
Wen Sheng is very confident. He knows the club's bottom line. The weekly salary is 70,000 pounds, but the contract period can be three years.
The salary that Klose can get is close to 2 million pounds, plus bonuses and so on, which is completely good. Of course, the key point is the three-year contract.
"It's good now, the frontcourt offense can survive!" Hawking nodded.
"I hope he can plug and play!" Wen Sheng is also full of expectations. Players are creatures that really need aura, which is called talent. Some players understand tactics quickly and integrate into the team quickly.
Wen Sheng expects Klose to be such a player.
After chatting for a while about the team, Wen Sheng and Hawking joined everyone's discussion circle.
After staying here for two hours, Wen Sheng said goodbye to everyone, and Hawking sent him outside the bar.
"Danny, it's actually good that you can come out and sit around often!"
Wen Sheng shrugged in confusion. He really didn't quite understand what Hawking meant.
"Look at you, you work all day long. Apart from work, I think you should also have your own life! Isn't it good to be like this now? I think it's good to relax yourself properly. Being a coach is so stressful, you
You have to learn to relax!"
"Farke, Donald, are you concerned about my physical and mental health now?!" Wen Sheng laughed endlessly.
"I'm just making a suggestion. I think it would be good for you!"
"Then do you think I am physically and mentally healthy now? Is there any problem?" Wen Sheng asked.
"You're fine. I'm just reminding you!"
"Then it's over! Thank you for your advice, brother! But I feel very good and there is no problem." Wen Sheng and Hawking hugged each other.
Wen Sheng does feel pretty good. His life is so happy now. He has a high income, plays football that he likes, and has a lover he can talk to. Wen Sheng feels that his life is quite satisfying.
The person who came to pick up Wen Sheng was Joey. He did not drive or drink after drinking. Wen Sheng would never make fun of his own life. Although he did not drink much, safety came first.
...
The first day of 2011.
This day was a mixed blessing for Wen Sheng.
Fortunately, Morelli has settled the negotiations with Klose's agent Alexander Schutte. The two parties have reached an agreement on salary, contract length, personal image rights, etc. Next is Schutte's work.
Need to convince Bayern Munich to release him early.
Bayern Munich has a high possibility of letting Klose go. First of all, Klose can't play under Van Gaal and is of little use. Secondly, letting Klose go now can save half a year's salary. Finally, Klose is also the number one player in the past.
, although the relationship between everyone has not been harmonious for more than half a year, the club cannot deliberately harass Klose, which will affect the club's image.
Of course, the last reason is not the main reason, the main reason is the second one to save money.
The bad news is that today at Maine Road Stadium, Crystal Palace visited Manchester City. Manchester City responded with a 3:0 to Crystal Palace.
In the first half, Crystal Palace beat Manchester City badly at their home court, which was a bit miserable.
In this game, Crystal Palace had serious problems on both offense and defense.
On the defensive end, Wen Sheng used the combination of Benatia and Van Dijk. This combination was the main force in November and December. The team played at a climax in November, and the two central defenders naturally contributed a lot.
His luck was a bit unlucky. Van Dijk, who started the game, was replaced due to injury after playing for more than ten minutes. Wen Sheng considered that he would face Birmingham at home on the night of the 4th and the schedule was relatively close, so he asked Onyewu to play. As a result
This substitution turned out to be a disaster.
Mancini still has the configuration of 442, but in this game Tevez and Dzeko partnered, Tevez retreated deeper, and Dzeko was like a single arrow.
Onyewu couldn't hold Dzeko off at all, allowing Dzeko to score a header in each half.
Benatia also made a mistake, pulling Adam Johnson in the penalty area and giving Tevez a penalty kick.
Judging from the key statistics such as ball control and shooting throughout the game, Crystal Palace is no worse than Manchester City, and is even better. For example, in terms of shooting, Crystal Palace outperformed its opponents twice in the game, with a total of 18 shots, and there were enough shots on target.
8 times, but couldn't score a single goal.
It cannot be said that the players on the offensive line did not perform well. In fact, everyone was already good, but they were just not good enough.
Wen Shengxin said that this game might have been different if Klose was there. He looked a bit dazed now, staring at the table closely with Klose.
When reporters asked Wen Sheng after the game how he felt about this game, Wen Sheng said: "I think we should deserve a point no matter what, but the reality is that we can't get a point. I am disappointed with the 0:3 score."
The score is honestly hard for me to understand!”
"We created a lot of chances, but Joe Hart did a great job and saved their door!"
A reporter asked whether Wen Sheng would criticize Onyewu and Benatia?!
"The responsibility for defense belongs to the entire team. Although they made mistakes, I think this responsibility should also be borne by me and other players! I think this is also a lesson for them. They could have done better!"
Benatia is more brave. Wen Sheng felt a little lucky until today. The team has not received a red card so far in the season. There are not many such teams in the league. With Benatia in Wen Sheng, Wen Sheng feels that this risk is quite high.
It's so high, I didn't expect this kid to survive until now without taking it.
He still won't let Benatia change his style. It's been okay for so long. What does it mean? It means that Benatia is actually very accurate in intercepting and stealing. It's not the kind of intentional injury, and it won't be easily recognized by the referees.
Red card action.
Reporters will still ask about the transfer, and the paparazzi are very good at it. They have already heard that Crystal Palace has basically reached an agreement with Klose, and now they are waiting to release him. Asking Wen Sheng is just to confirm the accuracy of the news.
Wen Sheng finally became more generous this time and said: "I think we have made good progress! There is no doubt that Mino is the kind of player that every coach dreams of! He is very good, and his arrival is a great help to us.
A very useful addition and he will bring us championship experience!”
But when people asked about Boateng, Wen Sheng was not happy anymore. He originally wanted to talk to Boateng, but it turned out that there were a lot of things going on in the past two days. From December 29th to January 1st, there were only two days.
, he was so busy that he didn't have time to talk to Boateng, and he didn't think of how to persuade Boateng.
At this moment, Boateng was questioned by reporters again. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed and accused Milan.
"Their behavior is disgraceful! We are very disappointed with their approach of contacting players privately! Boateng's future?! Well, his future is still here!"
"He said he wanted to leave, but he still has a contract with the team! I hope he fulfills his contract!"
He was happy to receive a call from Morelli in the morning, but he was in a bad mood when he returned to London Wensheng in the evening. He was too lazy to think about it. After he got off the bus after returning, it was already very late at night and he still called Boateng to him.
office.
"Do you really want to leave?!" Wen Sheng asked directly.
"Boss, the opportunity to go to Milan doesn't come around all the time! Now they are interested in me, but in summer, no, I don't have to wait until summer. This opportunity may not exist!" Boateng was grateful to Wen Sheng.
But what he does is not authentic.
Chapter completed!
