On New Year's Day, January 1, which was the first day of the winter window, Chelsea officially announced several transactions.

First of all, of course, the Oscar transfer rumors came to a conclusion, and it was announced that the Brazilian star would transfer to Shanghai SIPG for 80 million euros.

Then the team's goalkeeper Cech was loaned to Arsenal for half a season, with a buyout clause attached.

Chelsea also bought 19-year-old winger Gnabry from Arsenal for £5 million.

Of course, there is also the 22-year-old Argentinian goalkeeper Martinez. This deal only cost Chelsea 2 million pounds.

Such news, of course, has aroused widespread discussion among the media and fans.

For Chelsea fans, it is definitely not satisfactory.

Mainly from a book perspective, Chelsea's strength has declined.

Oscar, together with Schürrle, who had already officially announced his departure from the team earlier, and the meritorious goalkeeper Petr Cech, these three are all long-established and absolute stars;

And where did this Gnabry come from?

Poaching a wicketkeeper from Arsenal is also a puzzling operation.

Even if Cech really wants to leave, wouldn't it be okay to replace Szczesny? Even if it's to bring Ospina!

The result was a No. 3 goalkeeper who couldn't play a single game at Arsenal for several years...

The only advantage seems to be that it is cheaper.

Among the several deals that have been reached in the winter window, Chelsea's income is almost 120 million euros, but the expenditure is only 7 million pounds...

How is this like Chelsea's style?

Even a small team like Swansea has spent more than 10 million!

Immediately, there were constant voices of doubt.

Of course, some sensible fans pointed out that whether the team's strength will improve or decrease depends on the subsequent games.

When Pan Yi brought Cancelo and B-seat twin stars from Portugal during the summer window, including the little-known Marcos Alonso from Florence, weren't there many people who questioned it?

But as soon as the Premier League started, everyone shut up.

These people have all performed to a high level under Pan Yi and are also important members of Chelsea's current half-season championship.

Especially Marcos Alonso, before him, everyone had never seen a full-back with such a slow speed...

Therefore, you still have to believe in Pan Yi’s vision and his training ability!

Moreover, now that the winter window has just begun, perhaps coach Pan Yi is still planning some big news, preparing to shock the world!

Some fans are even thinking about whether they really want to go to Barcelona to get Messi...

——

Of course what Pan Yi wants to get is not Messi, but the person behind Messi - Lingard!

This originated from a meme on the Dragon Kingdom fans forum.

Probably when Messi wants to leave Barcelona in the future, many people will of course be concerned about his next club.

Many teams want to get Messi, and countless fans are watching this big show. There are piles of fans in the trees, and it is impossible to squeeze them out.

Zhang Lu commented at the time that lack of physical fitness and running ability are Messi's current weaknesses. Having him in the team is equivalent to missing half a person to play the game.

This news immediately sparked heated discussions on the Internet, with countless Messi fans complaining that Zhang Lu does not understand football.

Fans with great imaginations even came up with an excellent plan: let Messi move to Manchester United, where there is an immortal player who can help him.

"Messi's physical fitness is the biggest bottleneck right now, while Lingard's only advantage is running."

"Inspired by this, we can let Messi transfer to Manchester United. During the game, let Lin Lin run on his back. When he reaches the right position, put Messi down and start playing like a king. This can make up for the physical disadvantage to the greatest extent."

"Another obvious advantage of this tactic is that once Messi loses the ball, Lin next to him can launch a counterattack on the spot to regain the ball for Messi."

"Messi is good with the ball, Lingard is good without the ball, Lingard is running with Messi on his back, using his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses, and joining forces, he will be invincible!"

Of course, this so-called "solution" has also caused widespread discussion, and some people have even proposed a better solution:

"You don't have to go through so much trouble. After buying Messi, sign Bolt over. Wouldn't it be more powerful to have Bolt carry Messi on his back? Just run with the ball into the goal and save a lot of trouble."

…

Of course, Pan Yi wants to buy Lingard not just to let him run behind Messi.

But doesn’t this joke just show that Lingard has a wide range of activities on the field, runs without hesitation and has a positive attitude?

This in itself is Pan Yi's favorite player characteristic, whether it is Kanter or Ward-Prowse.

Of course, Lingard has more than these advantages.

From the perspective of position on the court, Lingard can serve as a central midfielder, shadow forward, and left and right wingers. He is basically a versatile frontcourt player, which is very suitable for Pan Yi's comprehensive requirements for players now.

As a right-footed player, he can be more conducive to getting the ball by running smoothly on the right wing.

Going to the left wing, Lingard has a strong effect of cutting inside the ribs and launching an attack.

Lingard's ability to create chaos through his ribs can be said to be his personal characteristic.

Moreover, his technical skills are also good, plus he has a certain flexibility advantage, as well as flexibility, balance and touch with the ball.

When there is no absolute gap in strength, he is able to make good moves and often comes up with miraculous moves.

During his later loan spell at West Ham, he thrived in the tactics created for him by Moyes and scored many beautiful goals.

Of course, his shortcomings are also obvious.

That is, in addition to his good physical fitness, his physical condition is not very good and it is easy to become invisible in strong confrontations.

Occasionally he will have a world-wide kick, but more often than not his shooting performance is not very good.

The bad reason is that on the one hand, his shooting level is not high, and on the other hand, his shooting timing is poor.

Lingard can actually shoot with both feet, but the problem is that the shots with both feet are not very good...

But for Pan Yi, these shortcomings can all be improved.

If the body is not strong enough, Pintus can give him more supplements;

If you're not good at shooting, just practice!

Look at Lukaku, some people still say that his shooting is not good enough?

After all, Lingard is only 22 years old this year and still has a lot of room for development.

In fact, the main reason is that Pan Yi understands that Lingard's technical characteristics make him more suitable as an assistant.

When he was at West Ham United, he played as an attacking midfielder, and the two cores of the team were actually tactical center Antonio and defensive midfielder Shaucek who was very capable of penetrating forward and scoring.

Lingard kept running back and forth in the attacking midfielder position, connecting the space between Soucek and Antonio, while looking for opportunities to get the ball in the ribs and attack inside.

In the current Chelsea, they also have the versatile center Lukaku, as well as the powerful defensive midfielders Kante and Matic to help Lingard deal with the damage, so that Lingard can hide behind and do his best.

At the same time, Lingard does not make many mistakes when playing football, which gives him a chance to become a qualified green leaf player.

This also allows him to play at a high level in the England national team behind Harry Kane.

From the statistics of the 2018 World Cup, we can see that Lingard directly participated in 3 goals and played almost all the games.

In other words, even in his previous life, as long as Lingard is used properly, he can perform brilliantly whether in the club or the national team.

Therefore, Pan Yi is confident to bring out Lin Huang, who is currently doing nothing at Manchester United, and make him a true "Lin Huang" in this life.

only……

What he never expected was that Manchester United was unwilling to let him go!

The reason is similar to Liverpool's unwillingness to sell Alexander-Arnold, just because Lingard is the prince of Manchester United!

Although Lingard is not a native of Manchester, he joined the Manchester United youth training camp in 2000, when he was less than eight years old, so he had the famous scene of coaching Cristiano Ronaldo not long after.

It was not until 2012 that he was promoted from the Manchester United U18 youth team to the first team.

At this time, he could not play in the star-studded Manchester United, so he could only be loaned to Leicester City in the British Championship, where he made his career debut.

After returning to Manchester United, he was loaned to Birmingham City again.

However, when he returned to Manchester United again, although the head coach Louis van Gaal wanted to use Lingard, he did not have many opportunities to play in the context of practicing large-circle tactics.

But Manchester United obviously don't want to give up this player from their own youth training, so they still plan to train in the first team, and if it doesn't work, they can loan him out to train.

Therefore, at this time, Chelsea suddenly said that they wanted to buy Lingard, and Manchester United just said one word, not selling!

But the problem is, Lingard wants to leave.

Although he is from the youth training of Manchester United, although he has been a Manchester United fan since he was a child, although he really wants to stay at Manchester United in his heart...

But he is not like Ward-Prowse who has had relatively stable playing time in the first team.

After all, your career is the most important!

How can he be considered a real Manchester United player if he cannot play in the Manchester United first team and is always on loan?

In the current Manchester United team, it is obvious to the naked eye that Lingard has no chance, so he can foresee that his future can only be constantly rented out.

Although it stands to reason that there is no chance at Manchester United, let alone at Chelsea?
