Chapter 40 I need money!
On May 20th, one week has passed since the end of the 2011/2012 season.
This season, Manchester City won the top league title again after 44 years.
At the last moment, they completed a tie with Manchester United in the standings, and based on the rules, Manchester City won the Premier League championship in the 2011/2012 season with a goal difference.
This made all Manchester City fans ecstatic.
Manchester on that day belonged to the Blue Moon and to every Manchester City fan.
In the last game, Aguero’s shot was called a priceless goal.
Aguero, who was transferred to join for only one season, became the darling of Manchester City fans.
Manchester City won the championship, Manchester United regrettably failed to defend the title, but still showed the heroic appearance of the Manchester duo.
Manchester United, led by Ferguson, is still the iron-blooded lion!
Chelsea has completely abandoned the league and started the Champions League.
Despite being unfavorable in the league, in the Champions League, Chelsea has made great progress and has reached the Champions League final.
They will face off against Bayern Munich in the Champions League final on May 21st, tomorrow!
Boas has been sacked and replaced by Roberto Di Matteo as Chelsea’s head coach.
After the palace change drama initiated by the Chelsea veteran, Boas lost the support of the players, management and the owner. After eight months at Stamford Bridge, he finally left in disgust.
In the hands of the new coach Di Matteo, the Chelsea veterans seemed to be rejuvenated for the second time. They defeated strong opponents in the Champions League, and finally defeated the mighty Barcelona to reach the final and join Bayern Munich.
Arsenal has completed the task of qualifying for the European competition, and the main players have also left one after another during the holiday, and began to prepare for the upcoming European Cup.
Arsenal have been ups and downs this season, and Van Persie this season has been amazing.
To a certain extent, Arsenal’s Champions League was earned by Van Persie.
This season, Van Persie was not injured and completed his full attendance, so he also won the Premier League Golden Boot crown and became the best player in the Premier League in the 2011/2012 season.
Van Persie like this lifts the spirits of Arsenal fans.
They feel that Van Persie’s state will not be a problem to continue into the next season, and next season Arsenal will make a comeback and attack the championship.
In this regard, Arsenal are full of confidence.
Wenger has been busy lately.
Even though the season is over, he still has a lot to do.
First of all, he needs to sort out the transcripts handed in by the players last season. He has to approve the homework.
Van Persie’s data is undeniably luxurious, full attendance + 30 goals in a single season, it can be said that in the most difficult moment for Arsenal, Van Persie carried the team forward.
Van Persie’s performance makes Wenger very satisfied, and he is also looking forward to Van Persie’s performance next season.
In terms of midfield, Arteta’s performance is not amazing, but he is qualified.
Wenger doesn’t want Arteta to behave like Cesc Fabregas, he has to admit that Arteta is just a replacement for Cesc Fabregas.
Walcott and Arshavin performed very well,
Especially Walcott, Little Tiger has performed very well this season and ushered in an explosive period in Arsenal.
Compared to Walcott, Arshavin’s performance was a little worse, but he was still pretty good.
But next season, Wenger is ready to have more chances with Gervinho.
In terms of midfield, Rosicky is still injured. This time the injury is a bit serious. I don’t know if he can play next season.
Fortunately, Wilshere returned from injury.
This is a key point.
In Wenger’s vision, next season’s midfielder will be paired with Arteta, Luckey and Wilshere.
Of course, Lucky is in a rotation state.
Observed for half a season, as long as his performance is stable enough, Wenger will not hesitate to use him.
Thinking of this, Wenger picked up Lucky’s data this season.
Lucky has played a total of five times this season.
One FA Cup, four Premier Leagues.
All came on as a substitute and did not start.
In a limited time, he gave Wenger a big surprise.
In five games, he averaged 2.9 steals per game, 2.5 interceptions per game, 97% pass success rate, and 4 key passes.
As a substitute player, in a limited time, cutting this kind of data can be described as amazing.
This is why the professor is determined to sell Alexander Song in the summer window.
Take advantage of the fact that there is still some value, and quickly realize it.
Wenger believes that Lekai has been able to replace Alexander Song after half a season of training, and it will even exceed a lot.
After all, from the defensive level alone, many first-team players said that they trust Luckey more.
Although this was a private vote, it was a remarkable thing to gain the trust of his teammates in just five games.
Wenger is sitting at his desk, sketching a blueprint for the future.
Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door.
When he dared to shout, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Patrice walked in aggressively, holding a newspaper in his hand, slammed it on the table, and roared, “Another traitor!—”
Wenger was a little puzzled, he looked down.
Just this one glance, Wenger’s expression immediately stiffened.
Daily Mail: “Van Persie revealed that he will not be ready to renew his contract with Arsenal! Does it reveal the possibility of a transfer? 》
This was a bolt from the blue, and Wenger froze in place.
This is something he never imagined. Although there have been rumors in the team, Wenger is also actively contacting Van Persie and making adjustments between the club and Van Persie, hoping to find a win-win solution.
But he did not expect that Van Persie’s attitude would be so decisive.
Without any notice, it was directly exposed in the media.
This is a naked unilateral declaration.
Wenger forced himself to calm down, he quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed Van Persie’s number.
But he made several calls in a row, but the other party just didn’t answer.
In the end, Wenger had no choice but to call Van Persie’s agent.
This time, the other party took it.
“professor!”
The voice of Van Persie’s agent came from the phone.
Wenger said with anger in his voice; “I need an explanation!”
Van Persie’s agent was silent for a moment and said; “Actually, this is something we have decided a long time ago. Robin feels very lonely at Arsenal. He wants more honors and wants to go further in the European war, but Arsenal can’t give him these things. Robin needs a partner, not a teammate who only knows how to rely on him, professor!”
Wenger said with anger; “He is the tactical core, and it is normal for teammates to rely on him.”
“But he’s not happy, Professor!” said Van Persie’s agent.
Wenger pursed his lips and said softly; “We can discuss, can’t we?”
“Robin has already given you a chance, the summer window and the winter window, the ‘partner’ he has been waiting for has never arrived! So, he decided to leave.”
Wenger said; “Where is he going?”
Van Persie’s agent said; “He said he will not stay in the Premier League, he does not want to be an enemy of Arsenal, he will go to other leagues and continue to pursue his Champions League dream there.”
Wenger sighed, his hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and said, “What if I ask him to stay?”
This sentence caused Patrice to turn his head, and his expression showed an unbearable look.
The godfather of Arsenal, the once high-spirited Arsene Wenger had such a humble moment.
But now Arsenal really can’t stand the toss.
They can’t afford another captain to leave!
This will bring the whole Arsenal down.
The other end of the phone was also silent for a long time.
Patrice noticed that Wenger’s breathing became heavy.
After a while, Van Persie’s agent finally spoke.
“Sorry! Professor!”
hung up the phone.
And Wenger seemed to be drained of strength and fell on the desk.
Wenger’s expression became dazed and a little overwhelmed.
“Arsena.”
Wenger waved his hand to plan, he showed a reluctant smile, and his voice was a little hoarse; “Let me be quiet for a while, okay?”
Patrice looked at the other party deeply and nodded.
“I’ll be waiting for you at the door!”
The door of Patrice’s office stood quietly beside him.
His heart is also not the taste.
Some indignation, but more helplessness.
He felt worthless for Wenger.
This old coach who made great contributions to Arsenal has only experienced one betrayal at the end of his career.
If he could go back in time, would he have made the same decision?
Vieira, Henry, Lyman, Pires.
At this moment, what came to Patrice’s mind was the glorious Arsenal that year.
The gunmen who had great scenery that year!
I don’t know how long it took before the office door slowly opened.
Patrice saw that Wenger’s face had grown a lot older and was full of exhaustion.
“How do we do it?” Patrice asked.
In response, Wenger took a deep breath and said, “We’re going to see the boss!”
“Kroenke?” Patrice frowned, to be honest, he really didn’t have a problem with this boss.
On the one hand, it constantly erodes the club’s shares, and on the other hand, it has almost zero investment in the club.
Wenger smiled and said; “I’ve lost patience with him. He promised to live, but none of them were achieved! So, let’s find another boss!”
Patrice’s eyes lit up.
Arsenal also has a ‘second’ boss.
The same Russian oligarch as Chelsea owner, Usmanov.
This person has always advocated increasing investment.
But because Kroenke holds more shares, he cannot get involved in the running of the club.
“I will help him increase his support for the acquisition of the club’s shares, but he must not be stingy!”
Having said this, Wenger’s expression became hideous, and he rarely exclaimed: “I’m fed up with this kind of shit! I need money! A lot of money!—”
