After resolving their misunderstanding, the young couple Li Yi and Dai Mengxi stopped talking about how they were having fun at home, because the Crystal Palace's new season assembly time was set for July 10th.
The European Cup finals were played on June 30. It was only 10 days from July 10. After the European Cup, Li Yi wasted two days because of parades and drinking, and later he had "
"Awkward", after a week of fooling around, after seven subtractions and eight divisions, there was only 2 days left for Li Yi before the team officially assembled.
Well, of course, there is something I have to mention here, and that is a conversation between Li Yi and Federer before officially gathering with the team.
Li Yi is the core player of Crystal Palace. Judging from the conversation between Li Yi and Mansour in the new season, Mansour is determined to do something big. No matter how crazy Crystal Palace is in the transfer market, even if
There is also a well-known figure in Europe like Li Yi in the team, and it is impossible for the media to rush to report on every transfer from Crystal Palace.
Therefore, before the team assembles, it is very necessary to chat with Federer and understand the composition of Crystal Palace's players for the new season.
…
"Uh, Lee, you have such good wine hidden in your house. How come I didn't know about it before? Is there any more? Anyway, you don't usually drink, so why not give it to me."
Looking at the Federer in front of him who had become familiar with him, had no grudges at all, and was becoming more and more "no big or small", Li Yi couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.[
Good wine? Of course it is good wine! Can it not be good wine? This bottle of red wine was specially sent to Li Yi by Mansour in order to celebrate Li Yi leading England to win the European Cup. Now Li Yi is not
Knowing the value of it, he hastily opened up and spoiled it with Federer like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit! Later, by chance, I learned that he drank this bottle of Liquor King. If it were auctioned, it would at least fetch a lot of money.
After paying 1 million U.S. dollars, it is said that Li Yi cried at that time! Of course, these are all things for later and will not be mentioned for now.
As for the brand of this bottle of wine, people in China may not be very familiar with it. This wine has a rather awkward Chinese name, called Romanee-Conti. Among red wines, it can be called the king of wines, Lafite.
Although the reputation is much greater, the actual value is far, far behind.
What's more, the bottle that Mansour gave to Li Yi is even more incredible. The year of its production is 1947, the most precious among the five years known to have the best quality of red wine.
It is said that the quality of the red wine produced in 1947 was not only improved because the weather was suitable for grape growth, but also because France won the war in that year.
The joy of the people! This is something that no red wine of any vintage will be able to compare with in the future.
Well, as a country bumpkin, even if his sense of taste is several times or even 10 times that of ordinary people, Li Yi will not tell you that in fact, when he drinks this bottle of Liquor King, he does not feel the same as he usually drinks those 1,2,000 euros.
What a difference the red wine makes.
Pouting his lips again, Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, Federer, you have drank the good wine. Now it's time to talk to me in detail about the summer transfer situation."
"Haha, okay! I knew Lee that you must be busy with the European Cup and don't have time to pay attention to these things. You have already done your homework!
Well, first of all, I have to congratulate you, Lee, your decision is indeed correct. Hehe, the new owner of Crystal Palace is really a man who is willing to spend money! Haha! You don’t know that this summer, because of him,
existence, how many team owners were so angry that they went to the hospital!
Okay, okay, let’s get to the point, let’s get to the point.
Wright-Phillips, who just participated in the European Cup with you, but he was basically a soybean, was acquired by Crystal Palace for 9 million euros.
In addition, Zabaleta was hired from Spain for 6.5 million euros, Vincent Kompany was snatched from Hamburg for 8.5 million euros, Llorente was bought for 10 million euros, and Mali was bought for 11 million euros.
Defensive midfielder Sissoko, bought French star Nasri from Marseille for 15 million, and poached Brazilian forward José from SK Moscow for 19 million.
Oh, there seems to be a young man named Ramsey. He is also from Wales. I heard that under the introduction of Gareth, Crystal Palace should be bought from Cardiff City for no more than 10 million pounds.
Such a player.
Well, of course, the above are not very important, the next ones are the big signings!
18 million, bought Glen Johnson from Chelsea.
33 million euros to buy Dutch star Wesley Sneijder from Ajax.[
For 36 million euros, he bought midfielder Yaya Toure from Barcelona.
For 40 million euros, he beat Barcelona to grab Sevilla captain Alves.
Um, since you haven't come back yet, Lee, I collected all this information from media reports. Maybe there are some new faces in the Crystal Palace formation, but the main transactions are these. Even if the Crystal Palace has poached some people, it won't be enough.
There can't be any heavyweight stars."
After listening to Federer's introduction, Li Yi nodded silently.
Mansour was indeed a big spender. In the list he gave, although Robben Ribery, the biggest and best player in later generations, was not included, he was able to get Vincent Kompany, Sneijder and Yaya Toure as he wished.
, Alves, has surprised Li Yi very much!
Moreover, here Li Yi also begins to look forward to his arrival on the wing of Crystal Palace in the new season!
Think about it, Bale on the left and Alves on the right. With the interference of these two wing maniacs, Li Yi really can't think of any team in the world whose defense line can definitely be defended.
However, after the surprise, Li Yi was a little confused!
So what, the person who troubled Li Yi was Sneijder.
Ten years ago, Sneijder was in his golden stage. What troubled Li Yi was naturally not Sneijder's ability. After all, based on his performance alone in 10 years, Sneijder should have been elected to the Ballon d'Or in 2008.
Years, his ability is absolutely nothing to say!
The root of Li Yi's struggle lies in Sneijder's position and the current presence of Modric in the Crystal Palace!
To be honest, after listening to Federer's introduction, Li Yi immediately regretted a little bit, regretting that he had done nothing to find trouble and went to Mansour Sneijder. If Li Yi didn't want to come to Mansour
I would never buy Sneijder, and the current situation would not happen!
It is said that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. In a team, it does not mean that the dual-core system will not be able to run!
However, this is always a great possibility. Let’s take the simplest example! Lampard and Gerrard, both of whom can be called the best midfielders in contemporary England, why do they play in the national team?
In games, the coach rarely arranges for two people to play together. Shen Deng is a substitute most of the time. Isn't it just because the two are incompatible?
Now, in the Crystal Palace formation, this problem is even more obvious, because Modric and Sneijder basically provide the same help to the team!
Li Yi shook his head lightly and didn't know whether it was because he was thinking about something or because he was drunk. He had a headache. Li Yi said to Federer, "What about other opponents? Such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and so on?"
"Well, this summer, Manchester United has been very calm so far. Apart from buying center Berbatov from Tottenham for a record price in team history, there has not been any big deal!
The situation of the Red Army Liverpool is similar. Except for the 20 million euros to acquire Robbie Keane from Tottenham, the other transactions are all small and insignificant.
As for Arsenal, their coach Arsene Wenger adheres to the principle of spending small money to do big things, and spent almost no money in the summer.
For Chelsea, Abramovich may have burned too much money in the past two years and won all the championships he should have won. He has no motivation to continue and there are no big deals."
