"However, Federer, if you refuse, you will refuse. We are familiar with each other. I still need to remind you. I am very happy at Crystal Palace at the moment. I don't want to, nor am I willing to have anything wrong with the team because of such a trivial matter."
Necessary friction, you understand what I mean?"
"Don't worry, Lee, I will help you solve this matter satisfactorily. In short, I would like to convey a positive message to Mansour, that is, we are willing to renew the contract, but you don't want your freedom
Imprisoned by money.”
"Okay, then I'm relieved!" Talking to smart people saves effort. When Federer quickly brought out the effect he wanted to achieve, Li Yi nodded with relief.
After carefully writing down Li Yi's request in the small notebook he carried with him, Federer glanced at Li Yi a few times and tentatively said with some hesitation, "Lee, let's see if we can continue the first topic."
?”
"The first topic? What's the first..." Li Yi originally wanted to ask what the first topic was, but when he realized what Federer wanted to say, Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, Federer, tell me."
"
"Well, actually Lee, if you really want to ask me to talk, I don't have anything to say. These are all commonplace. But I still feel it is necessary to say something.
Although Crystal Palace has achieved some good results in the past two years under the leadership of you and some good players, it is not a wealthy club after all and lacks foundation. In this situation, even if you can lead the team to win a few more Premier League championships, or even
Leading the team to the top of Europe and winning the Big Ears Cup will not change much.
Moreover, although the team's new owner Mansour is very rich and willing to invest in the team, who can guarantee how long his investment will last? Think about Chelsea back then. Chelsea's original investment could not
No worse than Mansour today, even crazier, but what about now? Isn’t their development stuck in a bottleneck? [
After talking about the team, let’s talk about individuals. After you led the team to win the European Cup, your commercial value at Crystal Palace has reached its peak, but it is only your peak at Crystal Palace. From an economic point of view,
Not to mention leaving the UK, you should at least go to a few wealthy teams in the Premier League to maximize your commercial value.
In addition, even if you put aside the economic point of view, from a competitive point of view, Lee, you should try to change your career. Before I say the next words, I need to explain that I really don’t mean to flatter you, I really mean it.
I feel that you are different from those great but not the greatest stars before. You are a player who has the potential to reach the heights of Maradona and Pele, and is the most promising player of the new generation to achieve the title of world champion.
Although leading an unknown team like Crystal Palace to win various honors can already explain a lot of problems, all of this is not enough.
Because, if you only play for one team from beginning to end, the outside world will think that it is the team's system that makes you, not you that makes the team.
Therefore, if you want to prove your ability, you must conquer various opponents through transfer.
Just like the famous saying of Julius Caesar - I come, I see, I conquer.
Only by conquering all kinds of opponents can you reach the top of the world. Even if the Premier League has become the world's number one league in recent years, just being in the Premier League is still not enough for you."
"Pah, pah, pah!" Li Yi clapped his hands gently, stood up with a smile, went to Federer, patted the former's shoulder, and then said loudly, "Yes, Federer, I have to admit, you are a
He is a very good lobbyist and has successfully aroused my desire to transfer."
"Then I'll contact you..."
Patting the opponent's shoulder again, interrupting Federer, Li Yi continued, "But, just like you said, I come, I see, I conquer! The Crystal Palace is the starting point of my career.
Before I really consider a transfer, I have to go through Crystal Palace!"
"Okay, I understand what you mean Lee!"
"Well." He smiled again and patted Federer on the shoulder. Li Yi said with a smile, "Federer, you don't have to cry and look sad! Maybe, in your opinion, Crystal Palace's desire to win the Champions League is a joke, and the first game with Real Madrid
In the game, we also played like shit. But, in my opinion, it is not the case.
In fact, if you do more homework, it is not difficult to find that the current Crystal Palace, even if you don't count me, is competitive enough in any of the five major European leagues. Not to mention me, who you are
Do you think you are a player who has the potential to become the "Ball King"?
The record was not good some time ago, but the team is still in the running-in period. I don’t even say that it will take another 2 or 3 seasons. I said that this season Crystal Palace has the hope of winning the Champions League and reaching the top. Believe it or not.
?"[
"How can it be?"
"Hey, is it possible for Federer? Just wait and see! Okay, let's end our conversation today!"
…
After seeing off Federer, he returned to the living room and found Dai Mengxi sitting on the sofa with his eyes wide open, seemingly thinking about something. Li Yi slightly curved his mouth, walked to sit next to the former, and said softly, "What's wrong, ours?"
Little Daisy Beauty, what philosophical issues are you thinking about?"
"Ah!" I was thinking about the problem when I was interrupted by Li Yi's voice. I screamed instinctively and found that the person speaking was Li Yi. It was rare that Dai Mengxi did not stand up with Li Yi, but asked a little depressed, "Li Yi
, do you think you will transfer to a foreign country in the future?"
Smiling and touching his nose, Li Yi returned, "Who can say clearly about the future? However, as Federer said, if I really want to reach the top of the football pyramid, I have to conquer it."
Several of the five major leagues are necessary. What's wrong, why do you want to talk to me about this today?"
Li Yi Shitou cursed in his heart, but on the surface Dai Mengxi pretended to say "Nothing. Just asking!"
After staring at Dai Mengxi seriously for a few times, he could see the deep embarrassment of the other party. Finally, Li Yi, who wanted to understand what the other party wanted to express, put away his cynical smile and said to the former very seriously, "I know!
What you want to say is that if I transfer to a foreign league in the future, you have no status and cannot follow me, right?"
"Yeah!" Dai Mengxi responded instinctively after being told what he meant by Li Yi. However, when he realized what he had just said, Dai Mengxi blushed and shook his head and said, "No, who cares where you go!"
"Haha!" He smiled and scratched the other person's nose. Before Dai Mengxi returned to his tigress nature and wanted to settle accounts with himself, he stood up and moved towards his bedroom. Li Yi said, "If I say, I am currently
A big part of the reason why I don’t want to transfer is because if I transfer, I have to move and can’t continue to get along with you, would you believe it?”
Looking at the direction Li Yi left, Dai Mengxi's face changed color quickly several times. Finally, he put on a smile and went back to his bedroom.
At this point, the relationship between Li Yi and Dai Mengxi has been basically confirmed. The two of them just lack the final touch. Of course, these are all things for later and will not be mentioned for now.
After playing the game against Chelsea and taking only two days' rest, Crystal Palace ushered in a new round of competition tasks for them.
Here, I have to lament that there are two domestic cup competitions, the FA Cup and the League Cup, and the Premier League is the only one among the five major European leagues that does not have a winter break. The rhythm is really very tight.
No, just after finishing the league at the weekend, Crystal Palace faced the League Cup match in mid-week.
Fortunately, Friedman has always been a cup fanatic who does not pay attention to the League Cup and the FA Cup. Faced with the useless League Cup, Friedman aims to bloom in both the Champions League and the Champions League this season.
It was just the beginning of the league, and there was no problem with the physical strength of the main players, and a large rotation of 11 people was still arranged.
