"Mr. Viscount Nelson, thank you very much for inviting me to play in Tottenham. However, after experiencing the events of Lazio and Barcelona, ​​I think joining a strong team with fierce internal competition is not a wise decision. This is a truth I have summarized through these three years of experience." Mendetayi initially showed a very excited expression for George's invitation. But soon, Espanyol returned to his calmness and tactfully rejected George's proposal.

"You can't say that, Mr. Mendeta." After hearing Mendeta's reply, George immediately expressed his objection. Or, even if Mendeta's statement was indeed reasonable, George would never agree with the other party's statement at this time. After all, his purpose was to persuade Mendeta and bring this former European best midfielder to Tottenham, rather than listen to the other party's explanation of the reason for refusing his invitation.

"Mr. Mendeita, let's stop wasting time in circles. Just open the skylight and say something bright. To be honest, I can understand why you are unwilling to join the strong team with fierce internal competition. After all, your previous experience in Lazio and Barcelona is really hard to be happy, so it is understandable that you are unwilling to take risks in your career."

"Mr. Viscount, it's really great that you can understand this point." Seeing George point out the main reason why he was unwilling to play for a strong team again, Menditta was naturally very pleased, "So, I hope you can understand my difficulties, so don't."

"No, Mr. Mendeta, please listen to me to finish my words." To Mendeta's surprise, George shook his head at this time and interrupted him toughly. "In my opinion, it is not your problem, but Lazio and Barcelona themselves. They are just lying on the stars and do not consider how to arrange your position correctly. This is the direct reason why you performed poorly in these two teams later."

"Mr. Viscount, do you mean that because neither Lazio nor Barcelona have used me well, I was unable to show the right level?" George's view successfully aroused Mendeta's interest. After all, although he never said it and did not respond much to criticism and speculation from fans and the media, Mendeta was still resentful of this past.

"To be precise, it is because Mendeta's skills and playing style have been completely fixed, so if you want to maximize your strength, you must give you the greatest freedom on the court like Valencia. Otherwise, you will only be able to show the ability of ordinary midfielders on the court like before coach Ranieri coached Valencia. This is the main reason why you have lost your competitive state after leaving Valencia, and in Lazio and Barcelona can't play the level of being the best midfielder in Europe!"

Since the three years since Mendeta left Valencia, Espanyol's abilities did not show any obvious decline, there was no sign of self-deprecation, and there was no psychological problem. Therefore, in George's view, the main reason why Mendeta performed far less than people expected during his time in Lazio and Barcelona was a player with his own tactical system!

You should know that before Ranieri picked up the Bat Legion's coach, Mendeta was just regarded as a midfielder who lacked offensive ability. It was not until the pot maker took office that he liberated Mendeta and obtained great freedom of the Basqueese: Mendeta was born in Bilbao, the Basque Autonomous Region and became famous and entered the ranks of the top European midfielders.

To put it bluntly, Mendetta is a player who needs the support of a tactical system to play the right level. If his teammates do not support him enough, or the head coach is unwilling to formulate tactics with him as the center, then his performance on the court will decline sharply!

You should know that when Mendeta transferred to Lazio three years ago, the Blue Eagles, who were full of talents in the team, could not form a team around him, as a newcomer. Moreover, Lazio's frequent coach changes that season also made it difficult for the newcomer Mendeta, who was newly accused of being appreciated and reused by the head coach. After that, the same was true for the season when he was loaned to Barcelona. Van Gaal's stubbornness and the existence of Riquelme and Luis Enrique, greatly squeezed Mendeta's activity space and could not be as free as he was in Valencia.

Mendeta's performance this season has improved because of this reason. In the weak Middlesbrough, Espanyol is the undisputed core of the organization, and he will handle every attack. Therefore, although Steve McLaren Middlesbrough coach's tactical style is quite conservative and rigid, and he does not give Mendeta enough freedom, the improvement of the team's status has also made Mendeta regain some of the feelings he had when he was in Valencia in the past.

Therefore, George's assurance against Mendeta is that he will play the same role in Tottenham Hotspur as he was in Valencia, and can organize the offense according to his own ideas! The only difference is that Mendeta's position on the court in Tottenham Hotspur should be closer to the middle, rather than the right forward in Valencia.

In this way, with George's persuasion and promise, Mendetta finally changed his mind and decided to fight for his career again, and signed his name on a three-year contract worth a total of 6 million US dollars!

This means that this former European best midfielder will transfer to White Hart Lane as a free agent after the summer transfer window opens, officially becoming a member of Tottenham Hotspur Club!

As for whether he can play the main player in Tottenham, Mendeta did not have much expectations. The two years spent by Lazio and Barcelona have honed Mendeta's mood well, and his age has also made his personality more calm and low-key. Therefore, Mendeta only hopes that George can fulfill his promise and give him enough freedom and the power to organize the offense when he comes on the court.

Just as George successfully signed Mendeta, a message from Torino made George loaned to Barcelona by Juventus this season. The Dutch wild boar Edgar Davis, who helped the Catalan Legion, rise again in the first half of the game, has also accepted a two-year, two-million dollar contract provided by Marlotta and announced a free transfer to Tottenham Hotspur!
