Chapter 847 What would you do if you were Ferguson?
Lass Diarra has always been a player with mixed reputations.
On the court, he has excellent stealing and interception abilities. He is known as the new Makelele and is highly favored by countless people. He will surely become a defensive master.
More importantly, in addition to his outstanding defensive ability, his good footwork and passing ability have also made him highly praised. Especially in recent years, European football's requirements for defensive midfielders have become more and more comprehensive.
under the general environment.
But off the court, his behavior is extremely strange.
Lass Diarra, who was born in 1985, started his career in the youth training of the French club Nantes. However, when he was sixteen years old, due to his short height and thin body, he was abandoned by Nantes and he was transferred to the then club.
Still at Le Mans in Ligue 2.
But not long after joining Le Mans, Las Diarra complained bitterly in the media, thinking that he was not valued by the team and wanted to leave the team. This completely offended Le Mans, who even disagreed with Las Diarra.
Yara terminated his contract, leaving him in a situation where he had no ball to play.
A year later, Lass Diarra joined Le Havre and quickly shined in this team, earning the title of the new Makelele and attracting the attention of top league scouts.
In 2005, Chelsea brought him to Stamford Bridge from Le Havre for a high price of four million euros.
At this time, Stamford Bridge is full of talents. Mourinho has gathered Essien, Lampard and other famous players under Mourinho. How can there be a chance for youngster Lass Diarra to play?
But in the second season after joining Chelsea, Mourinho tried to let Lass Diarra play as right back. He performed well for a time, occupied the main position of the team, and was selected for the French national team.
The ambitious Lass Diarra was not satisfied with his position at Chelsea. He began to want more, but Mourinho could not accept his request. In addition, Chelsea filled the right back position through transfers.
There was no opportunity, so in the summer of 2007, Lars Diarra jumped ship from Chelsea to Arsenal.
Arsenal only paid 2.61 million euros for Lass Diarra, which was a big drop from the 4 million euros that Chelsea introduced in two years, but Lass Diarra and his agent made a fortune.
Signature fee.
But this time it is even more outrageous. In Arsenal, Lass Diarra failed to get the core main position he wanted, especially after the younger Cesc Fabregas became the main player and captain, the French midfielder even more
dissatisfied.
In just six months, he publicly stated that he wanted to leave Arsenal and moved to Portsmouth for 6.3 million euros.
Redknapp, who was coaching Portsmouth at the time, had great trust in Lars Diarra and immediately supported him as the team's main midfielder, and Lars Diarra also performed very well.
To repay Redknapp.
That season, he helped Portsmouth win the FA Cup.
At this moment, everyone felt that the grievances between Las Diarra and Chelsea and Arsenal were more likely to be misunderstood by the two giants.
Real Madrid also entered the game in January 2009, and Las Diarra did not hesitate to choose Real Madrid. In the summer of 2009, after Sneijder left the team, he gave up the No. 6 jersey and wore the so-called
It is the No. 10 jersey of core players.
This proves the ambition of Ras Diarra.
After Pellegrini left, Mourinho, who had an unhappy relationship with Lass Diarra at Chelsea, took charge of Real Madrid, but the relationship between the two failed to get out of the shadow of the past.
Mourinho obviously wants Lass Diarra to focus on what he should do as a defensive midfielder, but the Frenchman wears the No. 10 jersey and he wants to be the core of the team's midfield.
He thinks he has such strength.
After being unsatisfied with Real Madrid, when Manchester United, who was eager to improve the team's strength, extended an olive branch, Lass Diarra chose Manchester United without hesitation, even going to the Old Trafford Stadium without even skipping training.
After getting his wish, the joining of Lars Diarra has indeed injected balance into Manchester United's midfield and has become the midfielder that Ferguson relies on most. Many people even think that he is Manchester United's best defense after Roy Keane.
midfielder.
But Las Diarra never forgot his core complex.
He never felt that he was a defensive player, he should be wearing the No. 10 jersey.
But in Manchester United, with Sneijder in front and Carrick in the back, Lars Diarra in the middle only needs to do his best job as a defensive player.
The French were not happy.
Ferguson is a very strong head coach. He has always suppressed Las Diarra, and everyone also feels that under Ferguson's training, Las Diarra will gradually get rid of his shortcomings and flaws.
.
Especially as he gets older, he should become more mature.
Unexpectedly, just after Manchester United played Benfica, Las Diarra's agent John Williams suddenly accepted an interview with the media and stated that Las Diarra was considering leaving Manchester United after the end of this season.
This sudden news aroused strong concern throughout the Premier League.
what's the situation?
Why did such news suddenly break out?
Didn’t Lars Diarra play well before?
He played a huge role in Manchester United reaching the semi-finals this season. Why did he suddenly leave?
It was also at this moment that everyone realized that behind Manchester United's triumphant songs, Ferguson had been suppressing the conflicts and scandals within the team.
…
What happened to Ras Diarra?
This has become the focus of everyone in the Premier League.
From the media to the fans, everyone is paying attention and talking about it.
As Manchester United's mortal enemy and opponents in the Champions League semi-finals, Gao Shen and Manchester City are naturally paying attention to Manchester United's every move. In addition, the training ground is next door, so they get more news than others.
"According to the reliable information we have received, John Williams had met with Russia's Anzhi before, and Anzhi promised to give Lars Diarra a sky-high contract worth up to 7 million euros after tax."
As soon as Carlos Vargas finished speaking, Gao Shen, Carlo, Brian Kidd and others looked at each other in shock.
"After taxes?" Brian Kidd asked in shock.
"After tax!" Vargas replied with certainty, "Anzhi has become rich overnight in the past few years and is recruiting troops everywhere. Las Diarra and Manchester United had a quarrel before, but there was no news.
"
Ferguson's influence in English football is extraordinary, especially reflected in his relationship with the media.
Don't underestimate Ferguson's energy.
At that time, the BBC only exposed the inside story of the third son of the Ferguson family being an agent and enriching himself, and was immediately blocked by Ferguson.
Since then, Ferguson has not been interviewed by the BBC and has refused to attend any occasion where the media is present.
In European football, before the media publishes some news, especially some negative news, they will inform the club in advance. Ferguson does not know how much internal negative news he suppressed for this.
It is only now that people know that Lass Diarra had approached Ferguson once before to ask for the core position of the midfielder, but Ferguson refused.
After all, Manchester United has players like Sneijder and Carrick at the helm, so how can they accommodate players like Lars Diarra as the core?
But Ferguson's skill was also extraordinary. After he rejected Lass Diarra, he still allowed the Frenchman to continue playing football willingly.
But now, Russian tycoon Anzhi came forward and directly incited Lars Diarra and his agent to take action.
Which media interview did John Williams give this time?
The Independent!
Everyone in the UK knows that this media is owned by Arsenal fans.
There are not many British media outlets that dare to break the news with Ferguson and break such negative news first, and The Independent is one of them.
Obviously, John Williams also made preparations.
When Gao Shen heard this, he really didn't know what reaction he should give.
Gloating? Or grateful to Las Diarra and his agent?
The Champions League semi-finals are about to start, and they chose to break out at this time, presumably to create some pressure on Manchester United and seek the possibility of a summer transfer.
"He probably feels that Manchester United cannot do without him!" Gao Shen guessed.
Manchester United is indeed in trouble right now.
Fletcher is out indefinitely due to a strange ulcerative colitis and may not be able to play this season, while Anderson was out from November to March due to a knee injury, and has yet to regain his form.
Both midfield defensive players have problems, resulting in Manchester United currently having only one defensive player in the midfield, Lars Diarra.
The French probably knew about this situation, so they wanted to take the opportunity to raise a price.
He wants to further improve his status within the Manchester United team, especially his core position, and also wants a contract with a higher weekly salary.
I have to say that the timing was spot on.
Manchester United is about to compete in the Champions League semi-finals. This is a game with great interests at stake. Ferguson has always said that he is eager to win another championship before retiring.
In this case, it is really possible that Ferguson and Manchester United will compromise.
It was as if Ferguson had repeatedly compromised on Rooney's weekly salary demands.
"Do you think Ferguson can bear it?" Carlo looked at Gao Shen and asked.
Everyone knows that Gao Shen has a close relationship with Ferguson, and they have been close friends for many years.
Gao Shen smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I'm not Ferguson, how could I know?"
After a pause, he changed the topic, "However, if it were me, I would stabilize him first and let him concentrate on playing for me and perform better. Then, this summer, I will
Ask for a higher transfer fee and sell him!"
"If no team is interested, then put him in limbo and let his agent find a buyer on his own. Anyway, Williams is so capable, he will definitely be able to find a team that meets my offer."
Carlo and Kidd looked at each other, feeling chills in their hearts.
From now on, don’t offend anyone if you offend him!
But Gao Shen really can't guess what Ferguson will do.
Based on his understanding of Ferguson, he could vaguely guess something, but these were extraordinary times, and he was not sure whether Ferguson still had such courage and courage.
