Red Rebels

698 Three sets of plans

The staff at Hongkou Stadium can swear that they have never seen such a grand scene in their lives.

The huge press conference hall was so crowded that many reporters who came late could not find a seat and could only squeeze in on the side. Poor camera staff could only carry the cameras on their shoulders. .

The hall was as lively as a vegetable market. Even though the air conditioner was turned on to the highest level, everyone was still sweating profusely. It was not because the temperature was too high. In fact, at this time of night, the temperature in Shanghai had dropped a lot. , coupled with the air conditioner, it will definitely not be so hot.

But in this press conference hall, there are too many people, and it gets hot.

Looking at the reporters in front of them, there are some from authoritative media across the country and from all over the world. The influence of the Shanghai Football Team is not enough to attract them. They have only one purpose here, the Red Rebels.

This is the second press conference held by the Red Rebels after they came to China. It is different from the first one held at Kunming Hongta Base. This time, the head coach of the team, Mourinho, is in charge of the press conference. I heard that the transfer progress of the Red Rebels was going to be announced, so reporters from all over the world came non-stop.

Seeing the grand occasion in front of them, and thinking about the ticket sales of this game at Hongkou Stadium, everyone had to admire the Red Rebels' management and promotion capabilities. Just through this press conference, It attracted the attention of countless reporters, who started to hype the team's game for free a few days ago, causing the tickets to be sold out.

It's been several years since we've had such a hot ticket sales situation.

The reporters were waiting anxiously, and the crowd was noisy, but when Mourinho walked into the press conference hall with Cassel and Ozil, the scene suddenly fell silent.

The press officer of the Red Rebel Army was responsible for hosting this press conference. He seemed to be familiar with all this.

At the beginning of the press conference, Mourinho took the lead in introducing to everyone the German teenager Ozil who had just been signed by the Red Rebels. This transfer has been announced to the outside world in advance and has been confirmed on the official website. Reporters We all saw this player on the training ground when we were in Kunming.

Regarding Ozil's resume in Germany, reporters have already dug out the ground, but no one knows what the Red Rebels like in him.

"What is it that matters to me?" Mourinho smiled when asked by reporters. "He is a very smart player. He can play unique football on the football field. He can give We bring richer tactical changes.

"

"Does that mean that Ozil's arrival means that the Red Rebels have opened a pass for Asha's transfer?"

Mourinho shook his head, "Ozil and Asa are two different players. Ozil can play multiple positions in the frontcourt, both left and right wingers and attacking midfielders. He will not be anyone's replacement. So whether he comes or not has no direct relationship with Asha's transfer. I am still very sure that until now, Asha is still a player of our Red Rebels."

The reporters below were in an uproar, but some people speculated that Mourinho was acting.

Asha submitted a written transfer application. It was clear that he wanted to leave the Red Rebels. Many wealthy teams in Europe were asking for Asha. This is a player with a price but no market. The reason why Mourinho That said, the purpose is to raise the price.

No one is sure how much the player Asha is worth. Chelsea and Manchester City's quotations are capped at 5 million pounds, and they are unwilling to add more. Arsenal, Liverpool and Inter Milan are more waiting to see. In addition, according to rumors Many teams such as San Antonio and Bayern are also interested in Asa. As for Barcelona and Real Madrid, who were the first to have scandals with Asa, they have clearly withdrawn.

Barcelona was banned from transferring for one year because Asa said that if Barcelona would never join Real Madrid, Real Madrid would not allow the purchase of such a player.

A magical European Cup, an amazing debut season in England, everyone can see that Asha has the ability, and at 7 years old, he is in his golden age, but the key question is, how much is he worth?

The Red Rebels originally bought him for 4.5 million pounds, which is equivalent to five times the amount now. This is definitely another cost-effective transfer for the Red Rebels, but the Red Rebels are still stubborn even now. He bites and doesn't let go.

Afterwards, the reporter asked several more things related to Asa's transfer. Mourinho gave positive answers, but they were vague. It was difficult for people to guess what the Red Rebels were thinking, so they changed the topic to Ozil. on you.

"Mr. Ozil, what attracted you to join the Red Rebels?"

Ozil was still young after all. He looked at the club's press officer, who nodded slightly, and then he said: "I don't know, joining the Red Rebels is like a dream to me. At this moment , I am even extremely sure that the most important thing in my life is to join the Red Rebels, I seem to be born for this."

The reporters below were a little noisy. Some people recognized Ozil's words because he was sincere, but others thought that Ozil was just talking about appearance, because he had just joined the team and naturally wanted to do everything possible to say good things about the Red Rebels. .

“In the frontcourt of the Red Rebels, there are world-class stars like Kaká, Ronaldinho, Messi, Aguero, and Cesc Fabregas, as well as Theo Walcott, Di Maria, and Wilshere. As a rising star, are you confident that you can succeed here?"

"I don't know, this is a huge challenge, but I'm sure that joining the Red Rebels will be the most glorious chapter of my career. This is extremely proud and proud for me, but the most wonderful thing is not only Just playing for the Red Rebels, but helping the Red Rebels achieve more honors even though we are already the best and most outstanding team in the world.”

Seeing that Ozil answered the questions flawlessly, the reporters at the scene were immediately confused about him. After asking a few hasty questions, someone immediately changed the topic elsewhere.

"Mr. Mourinho, it seems that Rene Adler did not come to Shanghai with the team. I heard that he returned to Manchester. Is that true?" The question was asked by a reporter from the British Sun.

The Sun News is not good at other things, but when it comes to digging up transfer insider information, it can always get first-hand information.

Many reporters at the scene were immediately in an uproar. Rene Adler has returned to Manchester. Does this mean he is about to transfer?

If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to explain. After all, after Rene Adler spent a wonderful half-season with the Red Rebels, he almost completely lived in the shadow of Cech last season. The Czech goalkeeper is stable. The performance did not give the German any chance. He could only play in some cup matches and insignificant games, but he still proved his strength very well.

There is no doubt about Rene Adler's strength, nor is there any doubt about his potential. The key is to give him a chance.

There is news that Bayern wants Rene Adler because Lion Kahn has retired and Bayern needs a stable goalkeeper. They are interested in fellow German Rene Adler; but there is also news that he has always been there. Arsenal, who are troubled by their goalkeeper, also want to get this goalkeeper. Almunia can no longer meet Wenger's requirements.

"Yes, he left the country," Mourinho admitted without concealment.

The reporters below suddenly burst into uproar again, and then everyone immediately raised their hands high, and the entire press conference hall seemed to have turned into a forest.

"Mr. Mourinho, is Rene Adler planning to transfer and leave the Red Rebels?"

Mourinho sat calmly in the center of the rostrum and nodded, "Yes, we received an offer for him, an offer we can't refuse. Plus Rene is still young and he needs game experience." , this is a good ending for him and for us."

"Which club is the opponent? Bayern? Or Arsenal?" the reporter continued to ask.

Mourinho smiled and said, "No, it's Manchester United."

The reporters below were in an uproar. No one expected that it would be Manchester United.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not that there is no trace. Van der Sar is already 8 years old, and his performance dropped a lot last season. Ferguson has been looking for a suitable successor for him, but he has never been able to find one. turn up.

Rene Adler has always lived in Manchester, close to the water. Naturally, the Red Devils were able to observe the German youngster at close range. There have long been rumors that Ferguson personally watched Rene Adler's game, but it did not cause any concern at the time. Too much attention, now it seems that Adler's switch to Manchester United is a sign.

"Can you tell me how much the transfer fee is, Mr. Mourinho?"

"Of course, Manchester United paid a transfer fee of 5 million pounds, which gives us no reason to keep Adler. Although I am well aware of his strength, we have a stronger Peter Cech and we cannot commit to him. Adler has more, so in the end we chose to let go. I hope Adler can have a good future at Manchester United."

It is indeed difficult for Adler to refuse 5 million pounds. No wonder the Red Rebels will allow their players to switch to Manchester United. However, another unknown thing is that Ferguson personally called Xiao Yu and Mourinho. , convinced the two of them to let Adler go, and Manchester United also offered a high price of 5 million pounds.

This price is 5 million pounds higher than Adler's valuation, but Ferguson has no choice. He is interested in Adler, and if he wants to persuade the Red Rebels to release him, he can only pay more money. Of course, He also promised to give Adler more opportunities to take over from Van der Sar.

The Red Rebels are now like a gold-plated factory. Asha performed well in one season with the Red Rebels. After playing at a high level in the European Cup, his worth immediately increased by more than 5 times; Adler spent a such a good time in the Red Rebels. After a dreamlike half-season, even though he has been on the bench for a season, his value has still increased significantly.

Some people say this is a bubble, but in fact, in European football, the wealthy teams seem to have an incredible superstition, that is, it is almost impossible to buy parallel imports from the Red Rebels, so even if the price is slightly higher, it is still possible. accepted

Of course, although there are no parallel imports, there is still an adaptation period, and it can be long or short.

After letting go of Rene Adler, the Red Rebels now need to find a suitable backup goalkeeper for Petr Cech. The scouting department has outlined a plan, including recalling the improved Chris Taylor from Sunderland. , the other is to introduce the 6-year-old Australian goalkeeper Schwarzer from Middlesbrough; the other is to introduce the American goalkeeper from Blackburn, who is also the first goalkeeper in the United States after Casey Keller retired, Friedel.

Chris Taylor has undoubtedly made great progress. As the so-called goalkeeper of a weak team, a season of experience in a newly promoted team like Sunderland has helped him improve his strength. However, the Red Rebels coaching staff believes that it is not necessary to withdraw at this time. , letting him live on the bench is undoubtedly a waste of his talent.

Schwarzer's contract with Middlesbrough is over. He has made it clear that he will not renew his contract with Middlesbrough because the latter is only willing to renew him for one year and then renew it depending on the situation, but he wants to For two years, we have been unable to reach an agreement.

Schwarzer is 94 meters tall and has good reflexes, but rarely makes wonderful saves. After all, he is not young anymore, but his positioning and defensive awareness are excellent, he is experienced, and his performance in England is very good. Stable, from 2005 to 2007 was his peak period. Many fans said that at that time, Schwarzer was not a world-famous player and never conceded goals. It is not difficult to see his strength from this point.

Nowadays, Schwarzer is older and his condition has declined a lot, but a goalkeeper like him who relies on awareness and experience will always have a longer career. The Red Rebels’ scouts believe that he can play for another two seasons. No problem at all.

After American goalkeeper Casey Keller retired, Friedel began to compete with Howard for the position of the main goalkeeper of the United States. Although he could not play the absolute main force in the national team, he performed well in England. He is 88 meters tall and has excellent abilities in all aspects. Balanced, although his body looks too strong, which affects his speed and flexibility, his performance is very stable.

Some people say that Blackburn performed well last season and the defense was guarded by Friedel, but they don’t know why. After Blackburn announced that they would replace Mark Hughes with Paul Ings as head coach, Friedel He was also thrown into the transfer market, and Al Blackburn introduced England national goalkeeper Robinson.

I heard that Blackburn put a price tag of 00,000 euros for Friedel. This amount of money is not a problem for the Red Rebels, and the scouting department also has a high evaluation of Friedel. As long as he is suitable, the Red Rebels can definitely win him. .

Mourinho and the coaching staff are currently discussing to see which plan to adopt, but generally speaking, they are more inclined to the latter two players. After all, both Schwarzer and Friedel have been playing in the UK. Veteran players with many years of experience, and they are not too young, they can become powerful substitutes for Cech.

As for the team's third goalkeeper, Mourinho will promote a small goalkeeper from the youth team to serve as the goalkeeper. However, everyone knows that the third goalkeeper will have almost no chance to play unless there is another goalkeeper like the one two years ago. massacre.
