222. Borrow Kearney

On Tuesday, the team headed to London.

Previously, Wensheng contacted Professor Wenger and wanted to borrow Arsenal's Kearney training base for training. The professor agreed, but the old boy was stingy enough and actually told Wensheng that he needed to pay the rent.

The Kearney training base is much larger than Manchester City's Carrington training base. Although it has become Arsenal's training base since the 1960s, Wenger has been expanding and renovating it since taking office. Kearney should be regarded as a more luxurious training base in Premier League teams.

Although it is far from Wembley Stadium, Manchester City will check in a hotel near Wembley Stadium on the day of the game to avoid traffic jams.

Of course, next season, Manchester City will move to the Etihad training base next to Etihad Stadium, which is taller than Kearney.

After arriving in London, Mane talked to Wensheng again, and he expressed his willingness to obey Wensheng's arrangements.

"The reason why I don't want to sell you is because I am optimistic about your future! The starting point of your arrangement will definitely be for your future development, but Sadio, what kind of future will you be? No one can guarantee the vote, you can decide where your own limit is!"

"You have some of your qualities now, but in the future you need to grasp a degree, about freedom and discipline, when you should rush around, and when you should choose to trust your teammates, you must grasp it well!"

"In fact, there are many players like you in this world who have speed and excellent skills, but why do many people always fail to become generous in the end?! You must learn from such lessons, relying solely on flower work and simple sprinting to survive in modern football!"

This time, Wensheng took a longer time to talk to Mane. He hoped that Mane could make changes in some aspects and make up for his shortcomings. Wensheng also gave many reasons and introduced his views on the development of the football world to Mane.

To be honest, for almost a year, Mane felt that this time he had the happiest conversation with the boss, and he also understood a lot of things.

So when the two finished the conversation, Mane sincerely said "Thank you!"

"Do it well! I'm optimistic about you! I don't mean to tie you up. Sadio, if you really can't find happiness here one day, what's wrong with leaving! Now your identity is on loan. Maybe you're not doing well in the new team, but you will definitely have a chance to return to me! But if you transfer and leave, you are no longer a Manchester City player, and you will go the wrong way, and there will be no chance to come back! Even if I'm optimistic, you will not be able to help you!"

Mane was shocked and on the way back to his room, he carefully pondered Wensheng's words, and found that Wensheng's words were very reasonable. At least Wensheng's inexplicable trust was definitely difficult to find in other coaches.

Mane was moved by himself.

......

After the season, Wenger had not yet gone on vacation, so Manchester City rented Kearney training base. On the first day, he ran to the training base to visit the set.

"I think you can win the Champions League!" Wenger and Wensheng stood shoulder to shoulder on the side of the training ground.

"Just this season? On the 25th?!"

"right!"

"I'm curious about how you have such a premonition!" Wen Sheng was stunned for a moment, not understanding why the professor had such a premonition.

"Because you can control the rhythm of the game and do good defense. You can't win the Champions League without good defense! Alas, if we were slower in the final against Barcelona, ​​we might not lose that game!" Wenger recalled that game. After many years, the final was also in Wembley.

Of course, what Wenger wants to scold the referee Haug the most is the referee. That guy sent off Lehman less than 20 minutes into the game. Many people think that the penalty changed the situation on the court and made that showdown misdeed.

At that time, Arsenal was at its peak. The rapid-paced offensive football attracted countless people's attention. At that time, Barcelona was in the Rijcard era and Ronaldo's era. They were the spokespersons of artistic football. When the two teams collided, they were honestly optimistic about Barcelona because Barcelona had Ronaldo.

The referee ruined the game, but Wenger has also thought about some questions over the years. Why did Lehman knock down people on the edge of the penalty area? After all, it was his own fault. Lehman didn't feel dizzy, or Arsenal's formation was not so radical, and he wouldn't be fooled like that.

The professor's team brought the pace of the game too fast, but he didn't expect to end up getting himself in.

"No comparison!" Wen Sheng shook his head. At that time, football was not very utilitarian as it is now. Many excellent teams played art. The stars' imagination and talents were artistically displayed. Football brought the fans pleasing and comfortable feeling. The charm of football was the charm of football.

Fans with longer time spans will have a very obvious feeling. The art of football is slowly dissipating, and utilitarian football is becoming popular.

Who should I blame?! I can only blame society for progress.

This conclusion seems strange, but in fact it is true. With the progress of society and the improvement of living standards, the salaries of players are also rising rapidly. The operating costs and buying prices of clubs are rising steadily. Commercial income is only a small part of the income for many teams. The majority of teams in major leagues still come from broadcast fees.

If you want to get more money, you must get results. If you don’t have results, you won’t have money!

Furthermore, for the bosses, the first expectation of the club is the championship, and the second is to play beautifully. Not to mention that all the bosses think so, at least the order in the minds of most bosses is like this.

During that Champions League game, Wenger still held some beliefs and would not be against Barcelona. Later, when he met Barcelona for two consecutive years, his Arsenal was not very good, but he lost his temper. Now he was a little moved when he saw Manchester City Wenger. He still had to be careful when football was still, but Wenger might have no choice but to coach and defend.

"It's really not comparable. I'll be me if I change the time!" Wenger smiled.

"Arsena, it's time to make a change! Even the fans have no championship. No matter how good your offense is, it can't cover up your defense. Haha, it's time for you to buy people. You can't do anything with your group of people. You are capable, and you are awesome, but your players, well, how can you say it, it's not as good as you imagined!" Wensheng persuaded Wenger with a smile.

"Are you selling players to me?! De Bruyne, or Silva! Or Yaya Toure?!"

"You think a lot!" Wen Sheng was amused and crying, "Even if you want to sell them, you really can't get the money! I'll ask you, any of them starts at 6,000 pounds, can you buy it?!"

"You are blackmailing!" Wenger was stunned.

"I'm not a blackmail, they are priceless treasures. If they want to leave, the price may only be higher than this! Manchester City is not a charity hall!" Wen Sheng defended.

Wenger smiled bitterly. He would never spend such a large amount of money to buy a player. Even Messi and Ronaldo would not have such a possibility.
