Manchester City's current lack of personnel also has a lot to do with Wen Sheng, who made similar mistakes at Manchester City to when he was at Crystal Palace, not focusing on the depth of the squad.

Manchester City brought in Philippe Coutinho in the summer, but as the transfer window was about to close, Wensheng loaned Coutinho to Espanyol.

Coutinho was loaned to Espanyol for half a season when he was at Inter Milan last season, and the youngster played a lot of games as the main player in that half season, making great contributions to the Spaniards, Coutinho transferred to Manchester City in the summer, and when the window closed, the Spaniards came to ask for rent, Wensheng considered that the team still has Nasri, Milner, Mane, De Bruyne, Silva and other players, Coutinho may not have too many opportunities to stay, and it is not a bad thing that there is a person between him and Mane who is on loan, So in the end, Coutinho was loaned out to the Spaniard again.

However, now that Silva is injured and James Milner is also injured, Mane is not in the ideal form of Wensheng, and there is a shortage of people on the wing.

Zahal played for a night here, completely forgetting about the phone call to Wensheng, just when Christmas came, he completely forgot about it.

On the 26th, Manchester City went to the Stadium of Light to challenge Sunderland.

A few days ago, when Manchester United defeated Sunderland, Wen Sheng was a little angry, but he was jealous of Manchester United winning, in fact, Sunderland's current situation is simply a very difficult thing to stop Manchester United, Sunderland has been in a cycle of consecutive winless games since November, no one knows what happened, Martin. O'Neill's position also looks precarious, considering that Sunderland are in 15th place, they are only four points away from the relegation zone. O'Neill did not bring positive changes to the team.

In the first half of the season, Manchester City relied on Kolarov's excellent performance to win 3-0 at home against Sunderland, and on the 26th, they relied on Sergio Aguero's excellent performance to win 3-0 away again.

Martin. O'Neill was on the defensive at home, but there were too many mistakes in their defenders, and as a result, Manchester City opened their doors early on, with De Bruyne rotating and Sergio Aguero hitting a weak Sunderland with one pass and two shots.

It is a pity that Manchester United also won in this round of games, and the points gap between the two has not widened.

Back in Manchester, Begiristain brought a good news to Wensheng, initial contact with Barnsley, the other party has agreed to Manchester City's offer of 4 million pounds, willing to sell Stones, Wensheng is very satisfied with Begiristan's work, he is surprised that Begiristan can persuade Barnsley to release in just a few days, really to say surprised, mainly he feels that 4 million pounds feels a little little.

"£4 million is a lot! Stones is still just a kid and has no experience in the Premier League! Zahavi thought so when he spoke to Wen Sheng on the phone again.

"Hehe, Begiristan can get Stones and the money is in place! Besides, I've heard that Barnsley's finances are not very good, and there is no reason for someone to pay such a price for Stones! Zahavi continued.

Wensheng came to Zahavi for one thing, Kyle. Walker's transfer, Walker is very troublesome, mainly because Levy is very difficult to handle, in the summer he sold Modric and knocked Real Madrid hard, and Wensheng also knew that Levy would knock Real Madrid in the summer of 13.

In Wensheng's view, Bale's transfer to Real Madrid is a bit of a loss for Real Madrid on the whole, but it may not be a loss from another perspective, after all, Bale later made repeated contributions in the key battles of the Champions League and contributed greatly to Real Madrid's success.

Because Levi was Jewish, Wen Sheng wanted to do a good job for Levi through Zahavi.

"All I can say try is try! You also know that Levi is a shrewd business, and he can't just cut the price because of me, what I can do may be able to help him make a decision to push for Walker's transfer! "Zahavi doesn't dare to give Wensheng a ticket, Tottenham does dare to sell anyone, but it is also timed, the summer window is still good to say, the winter window Levy is definitely not willing to sell Walker, this young player is now the main force of Tottenham Hotspur's right-back.

"Do you think £20 million will be able to convince him to let him go?!" Wen Sheng asked.

"£20 million?!" Zahavi was dumbfounded.

"What?! Is this less?! Wen Sheng knew that Walker's worth as much as £54 million was later, but this was later, not now.

"Less?! I fucking think you're too good at raising the price! Zahavi complained, "Daniel, Walker is not a winger, let alone a central striker, he is just a defender, he is not worth 20 million pounds!" ”

This is also the reason for Wen Sheng's descendants, in the next few years, the defender is frighteningly expensive, and now the defender is not worth much at all, even if Walker has a household book, it is not worth 20 million pounds.

"Liverpool paid £16 million when they bought Klein!" Wensheng takes Klein as an example.

"But it was a failed trade, and Klein hasn't been able to take the main position so far! So the market of young defenders should have dropped a lot! Hehe, Liverpool is wronged, and you have slaughtered him! Zahavi laughs at the thought of the deal, as it was rare for an English full-back to sell for such a high price before Klein.

Of course, Manchester City can be willful if they have money, but Zahavi feels that Wensheng doesn't need to be wronged, what did Walker buy?! It's the backup is the future, not the absolute main force, why do it?!

Thinking that Wen Sheng has always liked to cut through the mess with a quick knife, Zahavi persuaded again: "You are really not good at business!" It's really terrible! You're too direct, and you tend to bid like the reserve price, which is not good at all! ”

"You think it's your reserve price, even if you tell people it's the final price, but I'm sure people don't think so, even if you make them happy with your reserve price, but there's a good chance they'll raise the price on top of what you offered, and if you refuse, then you won't get the player you want! Your transfer goals will be difficult to accomplish! ”

"But if you don't expose your floor price and negotiate slowly, I think you can control the price within your floor price range, and even have a balance! Danny, there are fast and slow transfer transactions, you have to be patient if you don't want to be wronged! ”

Wen Sheng nodded on the other end of the phone, in fact, he also knew that this habit was not good, and he was not a fool, he was engaged in this method of directly brightening the floor price in Crystal Palace, mainly because there were many young players introduced at that time, and Crystal Palace's bid had made the other party have no room to increase prices, this trick can only be used on young players, just like Stones, 4 million directly appeared, and Barnsley also knew that there might be no such store in this village.

But if it is to bring in a famous player or a famous club player, he will definitely not directly show the reserve price!
