Chapter 22: Downing? ()！ (The first update, ask for a monthly pass!) ）

Niang wanted to talk to Dalglish about it, but he didn't tell Chen Xing. Chen Xing is not only the president of the club, he also has other positions and jobs, it is impossible to sit in the team for eight hours a day, five days a week, so many times, the person who has the final say in the club is actually Niang.

Communicating with the head coach is such a trivial matter, Niang naturally does not need to make a special phone call to report to Chen Xing, prepare a case or something.

He went straight to Dalglish's office to find ().

"Hey, Kenny. Are you available now? After knocking on Dalglish's office door, he walked in and asked.

"I'm getting ready to leave work." Dalglish shrugged. "What's the matter, Lu?"

"Actually, it's nothing, let's talk to you, we rarely talk about it, right?"

Dalglish smiled: "It's true, we rarely talk alone like this. But I guess you didn't come to me to discuss what to eat tonight, did you? ”

Niang also smiled: "Of course. What do you think of the heroes? ”

"He? He's a very good centre-forward and I think he can be the next Allan. Shearer. "Compare Chen Yingying to the next Alain. Shearer, Dalglish have a pretty high evaluation of Chen Yingying. When Dalglish was coaching at Blackburn, why the team was able to win the championship had a lot to do with the fact that he used Shearer well.

"He's got a good header, isn't he?" Niang asked knowingly.

"Of course."

"So...... Don't you think we should consider bringing in wide players? Niang had no patience to negotiate with Dalglish, and he was straight to the point.

When Dalglish heard his words, he slapped him: "Ha! I was about to tell you, way! I have a goal and I think he will come in and improve our wide attacking ability in a big way. ”

Niang was a little surprised, he didn't expect Dalglish to be really prepared to bring in wide players, if this was the case, he would be wronged......

He was intrigued by what Dalglish was looking for: "Who is that? ”

Dalglish reported a name: "Downing! ”

Niang was stunned for a moment after hearing the name: "Who?" ”

"Stuart. Downing ()! Dalglish repeated.

Niang was curious: "Why? ”

"Why?" Dalglish also reacted strangely to the team's general manager.

"yes, why Downing?" Niang asked.

"Why can't it be Downing?" Dalglish spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders and asked.

"I don't think he's good......" Niang said.

Dalglish frowned: "He's got a decent pace and technique, he's more versatile, I think he's the talent we need, and he still hasn't said the subtext, which is – you're an Italian, how much do you know about our England players?" You just say that people are not good!

Niang's heart exploded when he heard that Dalglish was actually planning to buy Downing, and he had already decided that he must block the transfer deal no matter what.

He was telling the truth, he really didn't think Tang Ning was good, his speed was not fast, and his skills were average. He was really amazing when he was at Middlesbrough, but after so many years, he didn't play, but regressed. The most important thing is that he thinks that Downing will not use his brains to play, the ball quotient is not high, such a player will only bury his head in the ball on the wing, and he can't bring it to the bottom line, and then he will cross it, as for the quality of the cross...... That's okay.

Expect such a person to deliver cannonballs to Chen Yingying? Dream on!

While Downing was Aston Villa's Player of the Match last season, so what? This is Liverpool!

Moreover, Downing, as a young and famous English player, was hyped as a genius by the English media, and now his value is inflated.

"He's got a terrible ball quotient, Kenny (). I don't think he's going to help us much in the team......" he tried to convince Dalglish.

But Dalglish interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "I have been following him for a long time, the road. I think he's dangerous on the wing. Most importantly, he is an English player. ”

"So what?" Niang's tone of voice was no longer polite.

"UEFA's new policy this season requires a minimum of six homegrown players in the starting line-up for each game. Downing is a homegrown player, and buying him can also solve this problem. Dalglish explained, but inwardly he was skeptical of the general manager's business abilities. I don't even know the famous "6+5", what club manager is he still in?

Dalglish has always believed that Niang came to power because of his relationship with his boss Chen Xing, otherwise with that person's ability, he would definitely not be able to sit in the position of general manager.

"We could buy another English player, but you don't have to buy Downing." Niang said. 'I don't think he's going to be able to help the team when he comes...... To be honest, he was really good when he first debuted, but in recent years, he has played more and more back, and he has not improved at all, and there are many better full-backs than him, so there is no need to keep an eye on Downing. ”

Seeing Niang repeatedly questioning the person he fancied, Dalglish was a little annoyed and decided to show Niang some strong evidence.

He turned on the TV and VCR.

"Look at this." He pointed to the TV screen and said to Niang.

As the screen lit up, Niang saw Downing in his Aston Villa training shirt, with his back to the camera, three trash cans lined up on the training ground in the distance, and three footballs at his feet.

Downing turned to give the camera a thumbs up, then kicked the ball.

Kicking three balls in a row, all three soccer balls flew into their respective trash cans accurately, and the lid of the trash can was buckled off ()!

"Look, the road. Downing has that footwork and technique, is there anything wrong with that? ”

Niang was dumbfounded—not stunned by Downing's brilliant footwork, but shocked by Dalglish's use of the obscure footage as evidence for recruitment.

He now has big doubts about Dalglish's insistence on bringing in Downing.

Why did Dalglish insist on bringing in Downing? Downing's current value is not low, it is very high, and the level is not very good, at least it does not meet Liverpool's requirements.

He thought of Dalglish again and saw that he was going to bring in a young Jordan. Henderson even did not hesitate to shell out a high price of fifteen million pounds.

I'm afraid it's a little greasy...... Almost all of the older generation of managers in English football manipulated transfers to profit from them. Why did Arsenal's legendary manager Graham step down? Nottingham Forest's godfather, Brian. Clough received kickbacks in Sheringham's move to Tottenham Hotspur. On the other side of this is Vinables, who have a bad reputation in English football. Tottenham boss Redknapp Sr. was so frustrated by commissions on player transfers that even Ferguson, the symbol of Manchester United, has been similarly accused of having his son's agency almost monopolize the transfer of many United players.

Dalglish had the same thing, but that was a long time ago.

If that's the case...... It is even more impossible to let Downing come to the team. Niang cannot allow the manager to use the transfer of players to make a lot of money for himself, to the detriment of the team and the club.

The conversation between the two did not continue. After showing Niang Downing's footage, Dalglish made it very straightforward that he was going home and that he would talk about it tomorrow.

Niang didn't dwell on it either. He thought the tape was so weird that he had to look it up.

Nowadays, there are often videos like this, and it seems that Nike used this tactic when he was promoting Ronaldinho, kicking the crossbar several times in a row and then bouncing back to continue shooting the crossbar (). At that time, the video was released and caused a global heated discussion, and everyone was guessing whether it was real or fake.

Niang feels that even if Downing's video is true, it doesn't mean that Downing's ability is outstanding, because even an ordinary player, who has experimented hundreds of times, can still kick such a ball, which is not unusual. To take a juggling video of this, perhaps even a video that has been recorded many times, as evidence of recruitment, Dalglish is too child's play, right?

※※※

After returning home, Niang spent an entire night researching the matter, looking for evidence and research.

It's not news that Dalglish is interested in Downing, the whole of England knows it, and he's been pursuing Downing since last season.

Although there are other candidates in the wide position, such as Manchester City's Adam. Johnson and Gorish are the only ones who love Downing.

This kind of love seems inexplicable to Niang. If Liverpool are a relegation team, it is understandable to love Downing. But Liverpool is a giant, and the goal is to compete in Europe, and Downing is a little ungrade for Liverpool.

Don't Dalglish know? He's an old coach, don't you understand such a reason? Then why does he like Downing so much?

It's not just Niang who finds this strange, even Liverpool's own fans can't see it. In their opinion Adam. Johnson is much better than Downing, and Gorish likes Downing.

There are also reporters who have asked Dalglish such questions. Dalglish's answer is that Downing's level is sufficient, and the most important thing is that Downing himself wants to come to Liverpool, which will reduce the pressure on the team to bring in players, and will not be asked by the other party for so many transfer fees in vain.

Liverpool fans have accepted this explanation - it is true, Downing has repeatedly announced in public that he is going to Liverpool if he wants to transfer, and he is a Liverpool fan ().

This can indeed win the favor of many Liverpool fans.

But the problem is that Downing yearns for Liverpool so much, and his value has not decreased because of this......

Twenty million pounds! Aston Villa insisted that this number would not be loosened, and Downing himself did not make any moves to match his favorite gifts, such as blackmailing the club and insisting on a transfer. How did you Adam move from Blackpool to Liverpool? He has faced Bo Gong with his old club!

If you want to buy Downing, it's not impossible, but Niang can't accept paying 20 million pounds. 20 million pounds can sell a very good full-back in England and even the whole of Europe, so why pursue Downing?

What made him even more angry was that while collecting information, Niang also discovered the information about the video - this video was produced and filmed by Aston Villa's multimedia department, and the producer himself admitted that the video was "made" by them using video tools! Just like processing pictures, the grafting came out with Downing's god technique of hitting the trash can with three consecutive balls!

He blew up right then - if Lao Tzu really bought Downing back, wouldn't he fucking be laughed at by the people at Aston Villa for being a stupid Kaizi? I cheated myself out of 20 million pounds with a fake thing! Do you really think that Liverpool's money is falling from the sky?!

※※※

, about the Downing video, is true, there are also rumors that Liverpool decided to buy Downing after watching this video, and it is also true that Dalglish has always been interested in Downing.

But is there any necessary connection between this...... I don't know, but the writer, the necessary apocryphal can still be made.

Anyway, everything is for the needs of the plot~~

In addition, today is still an outbreak, three watches, and tomorrow is also three watches, so continue to ask everyone~~ro@.
