"The latest news this morning, Manchester City announced last night that the club's board of directors has reached an agreement with the Abu Dhabi consortium from the Middle East United Arab Emirates, which invested 86.1 million euros in Manchester City and controls 55% of Manchester City's shares. In addition, the Abu Dhabi consortium also We are successively acquiring shares from small and medium shareholders in order to achieve a wholly-owned acquisition!"

"As for the acquisition of Manchester City, Alfasim said to the outside world that this is a long-planned acquisition, and they intend to operate Manchester City for a long time. At the same time, the money injected into Manchester City is not only used to repay the huge debt owed by Manchester City, It will also be used to acquire players."

Alfasim's chubby face appeared on the live broadcast of the TV. He was interviewing reporters in some local English, at the Giger Lane Stadium in Berry, which was temporarily rented by Manchester City.

"We are determined to bring the club to the forefront of the league and work hard to win the championship. I hope that one day, Manchester City can participate in European competitions like Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and other teams, and become the top team in the Premier League and even Europe. , I know it's not easy, but we are really working hard for this goal!"

"I talked to the club's head coach Keegan, I hope to win a title in the first season, the club must do their best for this, I know that with this team that was relegated last season, The team is not enough, I will talk to Keegan, as long as it is a player for the right club, let alone £20 million, even £30 million or even £50 million is not a problem!"

Alfasim looks very rich, especially when introduced to reporters, he said that the club's plan to build a new stadium will be put into operation immediately. This new stadium will cost 150 million pounds and will be opened as soon as possible in the 06/07 season , because he feels that the current Berry's Gig Lane stadium simply cannot satisfy Manchester City.

The camera switches to the news anchor again. The female anchor introduces the players that Manchester City is currently looking at, almost involving the four lines of Manchester City's forwards, midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers.

Manchester City currently has a lot of strikers locked in, all of which are the hottest stars in European football today, including Ronaldo of Real Madrid, Henry of Arsenal, Ruud van Nistelrooy of Manchester United, Trezeguet of Juventus, Irene of Ajax. Blahimovic, of whom Ibrahimovic is rumored to have signed a transfer deal with Juventus privately, will move to the Bianconeri in the winter.

This is a little different from Xiao Yu's previous life. At that time, Ibrahimovic left Ajax on the last day of the summer transfer, but now it has been delayed. With the intervention of Manchester City, I am afraid he may not go to Juventus. , because Keegan admires the tall Swedish striker.

In terms of midfield, Giggs, Scholes, Ballack, Sneijder, Cambiasso, Figo, Pirlo, Hargreaves and other powerful stars, and Keegan is also rumored to be right. Beckham, De Rossi, Essien and Yaya Toure are interested, all of whom are the type of players Keegan admires and who have proven themselves in the Premier League.

"It is said that the Abu Dhabi consortium has injected £130 million of transfer funds into Manchester City for Keegan to operate in the transfer market. This money will allow Keegan to introduce players he admires on all lines, even if These players are from rivals and Manchester United."

………………"It seems that the Premier League is going to be more and more interesting!" Xiao Yu didn't know whether to be excited or to smile bitterly.

The reason why I am excited is because if it is from a commercial point of view, the Abu Dhabi consortium will enter Manchester City ahead of schedule, which will indeed bring a huge sensational effect to the Premier League. People see the potential of investing in the Premier League.

At present, many Premier League teams including Birmingham, Aston Villa, Fulham, etc. are caught in the turmoil of being acquired. From this, it is not difficult to see that investors' interest in the Premier League is not unreasonable.

Abu Dhabi consortium enters Premier League

This is bound to increase their influence around the world, especially in the world of fans, and in order to enhance Manchester City's competitiveness as soon as possible, they are bound to make big signings. As a result, the influence of the Premier League will also rise with the tide.

This is definitely a great thing for Premier League operators.

However, as the boss, Xiao Yu had to see another point, that is, with the rise of Manchester City, the competition in the Premier League is bound to become more and more intense, and it will become more and more difficult to win the Premier League championship.

"According to the current market, 130 million pounds of funds have entered Manchester City, which is enough for Manchester City to sign on all fronts, but if you want to buy a star of Ronaldo's level, you may not be able to get it just by relying on money." Mark ? David laughed sarcastically.

In order to attract a star of Ronaldo's level, in addition to money, there is also competition, and at the same time, it is necessary to know how to manage this brand and enhance his value. From the current point of view, Manchester City definitely does not have these requirements.

Xiao Yu nodded with a smile, that's why he decided to set up the Ministry of Commerce in the first place. There is no Ministry of Commerce, let alone Beckham. Even Kaka, Messi and other players will not stay at the club for a long time. Become someone else's star processing factory.

"I don't know about other players, but the players in our team must be stable. We are playing in the league and the Champions League this season. I don't want the rumors from Manchester City to affect the team." Xiao Yu proposed himself to David. requirements.

Everyone knows their ability in player management, and at the same time they all know how difficult Xiao Yu and David are. If you want to buy players from your hands, even if you convince the players, you have to spend a lot of money.

Essien and De Rossi are Mourinho's most reliant stars, and they are also the current main players. They are the heroes of last year's championship. If you want to poach them, even if you charge a sky-high price, you must be able to convince Xiao Yu to nod, because They also have three or four-year contracts with the club.

After watching the news of Manchester City with Mark David, and discussing the strategy against the surname, Xiao Yu decided to talk to Mourinho. After all, Manchester City is one of the three Premier League teams in Manchester, although they have been in the past two years. Living abroad, but also a mortal enemy.

Mourinho is not very concerned about the possible poaching of Manchester City, because players such as Essien and De Rossi are very loyal to the team. Both of them are youth training players cultivated by the team. Rejecting the temptation of Manchester United and choosing to stay in the team, De Rossi also rejected the temptation from AC Milan, Juventus, Roma and other Serie A giants.

Manchester City want to attract them to join, it is undoubtedly unrealistic.

After that, Xiao Yu talked to Mourinho about the upcoming derby. Although the Red Devils derby is very attractive, the Manchester City derby is equally exciting.

Mourinho is bound to win this game, because after the 8th round of the league, the Premier League will be suspended for two weeks, ushering in the national team game, and then the two-line battle of the league and the Champions League group stage will begin, which is also mixed. League Cup matches.

………………Sitting on the pitch, Mourinho made a strong lineup full of attacks to show his determination to destroy Manchester City with attacking attacks. On the other hand, Manchester City, due to the acquisition of the team, caused the players to be popular Frightened, in poor condition.

Keegan also clearly wanted to prove his strength in front of the new boss in this game. He did not choose to retreat when faced with Fulham, but asked the team to play more proactively.

Never be afraid of opponents who take the initiative to attack, especially in the face of teams that are inferior to their own strength.

The Chinese Suns, who have performed well in the Premier League this season, also appeared in the starting lineup, but he was greeted by a crazy Ronaldinho. He could not stop the Portuguese who were attacking with all his strength. His performance in the whole game only It can be described as tragedy.

Not only Ronaldinho, Kaka in the middle also showed strong attacking power. Driven by the engine behind Beckham and the bridgehead in front of Drogba, they defeated Manchester City’s defense line in one fell swoop. , do whatever you want.

7:0, Manchester City, in charge of Keegan, once again used the fact of blood to prove one thing to everyone, that is, to face, especially when your strength is not sustainable, only by retreating can it be possible to seek completeness. Attack to attack, it is definitely a pebble hitting a stone.

Newcastle just proved it and Manchester City impresses everyone once again!

Beckham continued his outstanding performance this season, with 1 goal and 2 assists, Kaka scored a hat-trick, Ronaldinho, Robben and Drogba each scored a goal.

The live TV footage is even more meaningful to find Alfasim in the stands. Although he has chosen Mubarak as the chairman of Manchester City to manage the team on his behalf, he still looks eager to see it with his own eyes. team wins.

Helpless, what he saw was a big rout!

The Manchester City players are not without effort on the field, and their performance also proves that they do not want to win, but the key problem is that now the club has changed hands, the players are panicking, and Keegan made a tactical mistake. Blindly optimistic that their team can withstand the attack.

But the result?

"It was a crazy win, Keegan's team was doomed from the moment he tried to contain the attack on the pitch, Manchester City's defense was too high, which made Ronaldinho, Drogba and Robben was always close to City's defenders and Beckham's passing allowed them to find a lot of one-on-one opportunities."

In Martin Samuel's column, he dissects the game so much, and at the same time expresses his doubts.

In a one-on-one situation, which line of defense can simultaneously imprison the four attacking players in the frontcourt?

"Arsenal didn't do it last season, Chelsea, who signed a lot of money this season, didn't do it, Manchester United couldn't do it, Liverpool almost did it, but in the end they still failed, and Manchester City think they can?"

"Kegan made a huge mistake, he didn't see clearly the gap between his team and the opponent, which led to his team's bloodbath on the road, and it also likely interrupted Manchester City's season. After a good performance, our hope for this team now is that Alfasim can use his petrodollars to boost the strength of this team!"

No one knows whether Alfasim regrets buying Manchester City now, no one knows what he is thinking, and no one knows whether he will make a change of coaches as some newspapers are happy to see. The decision to remove Keegan, the only thing he knew was that when he left the pitch, his face was as gloomy as the rainy weather in Manchester overhead.

It is believed that the rainy weather shrouded in Manchester City will continue for a long time.

On the other hand, after the big victory over Manchester City, the team was relieved, because Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-0 at home, which made the ranking rise again, and currently only lost to the victorious Manchester United and Arsenal.

However, Manchester United's recent situation is not very good. The Glazer family is buying shares in Manchester United. Manchester United fans are constantly protesting and boycotting. At the same time, they are also calling on those Manchester United shareholders not to allow the Glazer family to buy Manchester United.

"They are the devils of capital, they will drag Manchester United into the quagmire of debt, they will make Manchester United's pride disappear!"

Not only the fans reacted fiercely, but the club's internal reactions were also very fierce, especially players such as Roy Keane, who were resolutely opposed to the acquisition, but more and more shareholders of the board of directors recognized the dollars in the hands of the Glazer family. People continue to choose to surrender to the US dollar.

In this atmosphere, Manchester United beat visiting Middlesbrough 1-0, Alan Smith scored the winning goal for the team, but Manchester United has lost the spirit of the beginning of the season.

After the Premier League was suspended, the England national team ushered in two World Cup qualifiers against Wales and Azerbaijan. Beckham, who announced his retirement from the national team, did not appear in the national team's squad!
