"That's not realistic."

When Dong Fangzhuo talked about Feng Xiaoting, Lin Xu categorically denied Dong Fangzhuo's idea.

"It's impossible, you think a player is so good that you can buy them out. You're doing a thankless job and ending up in a mess. It's not a matter of one or two players, let me put it this way, if all the players in the national youth team have a team to buy, but all the clubs are talking big and open, can you still pay for it......"

But Lin Xu did not directly extinguish Dong Fangzhuo's hope, but gave him new advice: "I think you can talk to Mr. Qu Weiyuan, as the most authoritative and professional football newspaper in China, the influence is huge, while the club has not yet appeared in this situation, "Sports Weekly" is the first to burst out, blowing the wind, so that other clubs may converge, maybe it will also have an impact on Chen Tao to join Anderlecht in the future?" ”

Dong Fangzhuo scratched his head, and said in his heart that he was a football player after all, and his brain was still not enough, unlike Lin Xu, who always thought about things very well and took all aspects into account. It's a good way to put pressure on the club through media coverage......

Anyway, he couldn't watch Feng Xiaoting and Chen Tao get buried.

While there is still time, the other players have not yet encountered these situations, and maybe there is still time to save.

※※※※

Dong Fangzhuo later found Qu Weiyuan and talked to him about it specifically, but he didn't expect Qu Weiyuan to hit it off, and then wrote an article in the "Sports Weekly" published on Monday - "Accountability - Who is preventing young players from going to the world?" 》

"It is rumored that the German Schalke 04 Football Club offered Dalian Shide 1 million euros, but Dalian Shide bit 3 million euros and did not let go ......"

Anyway, that's what it means, and then domestic online media have reprinted this article. For a time, Dalian Shide Club was immediately on the cusp. Anyway, now everyone thinks that the reason why Feng Xiaoting can't join Schalke 04 is entirely because the club lion opened his mouth and refused to let Feng Xiaoting go......

There is only so much that Dong Fangzhuo can do for the time being, and he can only wait for what direction the situation will develop.

And he himself has been on the cusp of the storm in recent days, and the English media is still making a lot of noise about his affairs, and his acting behavior in Chelsea games, bombarding Atkinson, whether he can really carry the offensive banner of Manchester United, etc., have become the topics of media keen coverage.

But with the Premier League opener approaching, his news was gradually replaced by other news.

Despite winning the Community Shield, Spinach is still not optimistic about Manchester United's Premier League prospects this season, and their odds to win the title are still behind Chelsea and even lower than Arsenal.

The Times published an article - repeating the same old tune? Yes, in the 2005-2006 Premier League season, the main theme is likely to remain blues.

Before the start of last season, many experts predicted that Chelsea would win the title, largely because they were tired of the eight-year north-south confrontation and other teams such as Adou, who could not be supported, and instead hoped that the charismatic Mourinho would break the binary monopoly and avoid a repeat of the tragedy of the Soviet Super League in England.

But if we continue to be optimistic about Chelsea this season, it will be not expecting, but sure and worried. Jose Mourinho's individual quality is undeniable, Chelsea's squad is stronger than it was a year ago, and the strength of the two rivals Manchester United and Arsenal has not increased, what can stop Chelsea from lifting their third league trophy immediately?

Jose Mourinho's first season in charge of the league title broke the balance of the North-South rivalry over the years, which is a good thing, but Chelsea have almost unlimited resources and the Premier League could return to Liverpool's one-man team in the late 70s and early 80s, where dictatorship is not necessarily better than a binary monopoly.

The Times is quite bearish on Arsenal: "With Patrick Vieira gone, an ageing squad and young players unable to take over, Thierry Henry's Arsenal still have no future in sight this season. The most direct manifestation is that they will suffer a lot in tough battles, and this season's Champions League journey will test them even more. ”

As for Manchester United, the Times is even less welcome: "Although Manchester United bought Nemanja Vidic, which can strengthen the defense to the maximum, Manchester United's midfield is still no different from last season, counting on Park Ji-sung to save Manchester United?" Or is it counting on the front three to lead United to victory for an entire season without Ruud van Nistelrooy? Last season proved everything. Thankfully, they have been able to hold Liverpool third this season. ”

"Manchester United's lessons last season are not profound, and if the unsatisfactory results in the game lead to a concentrated outbreak of conflicts, Ferguson's future may not be as solid as Glazer Jr. said earlier."

'Ferguson was hoping for the West to stop Chelsea last season, but Everton, Liverpool, Newcastle and Bolton all had their own plans to stop Chelsea. Ironically, United themselves have dropped a whopping 14 points against the underdogs, suggesting that it is unreliable to expect others to take advantage of their own fire. ”

"If the probability pie of winning the championship is split, Chelsea easily occupies half, William Hill's odds are Chelsea's favorites, Arsenal and Manchester United are three times the odds of Chelsea, only enough to evenly share the remaining ninety, Liverpool's odds are as high as 1 to 15, even more small."

The Times also looked ahead to Manchester United's opening game away to Everton: "Considering Manchester United playing away and Wayne Rooney is back, Manchester United are likely to get a draw here. ”

Finally, The Times also published William Hill Spinach's odds to win the championship and top scorer odds.

Chelsea 1.66

"Fack, my odds are only 25?" Ronaldo read the news of the "Times" and was quite unhappy, "How unoptimistic is this......

"Dong, you are actually lower than Cisse."

"The guy who wrote this must have had water in his brain. Is the title already engraved on the Chelsea man's forehead? ”

'Chelsea, Chelsea, every day it's Chelsea, didn't Chelsea just lose to us? What reason do they have to be the most favored? ”

"Hey, Wayne, why are you listless all day?"

"Because I'm going back to Goodison Park......"
