Chapter 577: Helping Manchester United
When Yang Huan was talking to Peter Kenyon at the Landmark Hotel, in a mansion in London's West End, Marina Granovskia was also reporting information to her boss.
"I just had a special conversation with Ian Al after the meeting ended."
"Well, what did Ian El say?" Abramovich asked with concern.
It's time for Chelsea's forward line to adjust!
Torres is already a complete parallel commodity, even if Benitez has a certain form after coaching, it is still difficult to take charge alone, and Mourinho has made it clear that Torres is not in his plans.
Demba Ba, who was introduced during the winter break, was clearly not worthy of the Blues' status as a giant, and was destined not to be reused.
In this case, it is imperative to bring in a strong scorer!
Looking at the whole of Europe, how many goalscorers can be regarded by Chelsea and have strong strength?
Mendes played for Paris Saint-Germain's Falcao, Napoli's Edinson Cavani, Liverpool's Suarez.
These are the three players that Chelsea are targeting, but the first two are quite high in value and have great hidden dangers.
Who knows if they'll be able to adapt to the Premier League?
On the contrary, Suarez has no adaptability problems, and the technical characteristics and tactical adaptability of the players are quite perfect.
So, Chelsea are aiming for Suarez!
But Marina Granovskia shook her head helplessly, "Ian Ayr has a very tough attitude, Liverpool can't sell Suarez to us!" ”
"Why?" Abramovich's eyelids jumped.
Ian Al is guilty of his rebellion!
What the Liverpool general manager means is that Suarez is good for anyone, but definitely not for you Chelsea!
Marina Granovsky understood her boss, smiled bitterly, shook her head, and said: "When we poached Torres during the winter break, Liverpool has always been obsessed with this matter, plus the previous poaching of Gerrard ......"
Abramovich was out of luck now.
Even if the Russians are now full of resentment, they may vent it?
From the perspective of any team, who would want to let go of a team soul like Gerrard?
There are also the likes of Fernando Torres, who are Liverpool's thighs, guaranteed goals, and just scored a brace before moving to Chelsea, but on the last day of the winter break, he moved to Chelsea.
This blockbuster transfer that fans talk about has brought heavy losses to Liverpool.
Judging from the chain reaction, Carroll, who was introduced in a hurry, was not only overvalued, but also completely unsuitable for Liverpool's tactical system in the end, and the Reds had to suffer in the end.
Of course, Chelsea's introduction of Torres was not a success in the end.
But in Liverpool's opinion, if you Chelsea hadn't forced Torres to poach at the beginning, wouldn't it be like this?
So it's no surprise that Liverpool are now reluctant to sell Suarez to Chelsea.
But who is Abramovich?
"Not for sale?" The Russian snorted coldly, "We use the termination clause, we can't help them!" ”
Marina Granovskia immediately understood what the boss meant, and went straight to the digging.
Anyway, as long as Chelsea are willing to pay Suarez a £40 million release fee, as long as the player nods, it has little to do with Liverpool.
But in this way, Chelsea's image must have been further tarnished!
But Granovsky knows his boss.
In these years, the most useless thing is the festival, how much is a pound? The more the merrier!
"That's right, Marina!" Abramovich seemed to remember something again.
"Boss!" Granovsky hastened to agree.
'I've just looked at this season's Premier League standings and Southampton are five points behind Manchester United!
Granovskia couldn't figure out what the boss was trying to say, so she could only nod.
"Yes, it's five points behind."
"And what do you think about the future of the Premier League?" Abramovich asked.
Granovskia thought for a moment, "With four rounds left in the league, a five-point gap is not entirely impossible, and in recent times, Southampton has been winning and Manchester United have dropped points in a row, and the shape may change." ”
Abramovich nodded faintly, "The Saints have a better chance of winning?" ”
The Russian woman shook her head, "Not necessarily, Southampton reached the FA Cup final, and also reached the Europa League semi-finals. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Besides, Manchester United is not a fuel-efficient lamp, after the first few rounds of the table is not good, the last two rounds have improved a lot, Ferguson is experienced, as long as Manchester United does not make mistakes in the remaining four rounds of the league, Southampton has no chance, even if they win all, it is impossible to win the championship!" ”
Hearing this, Abramovich couldn't help but smile and nodded.
I don't know why, anyway, the more he looks at Yang Huan, the more unpleasant it becomes.
He doesn't even want to see Southampton win the Premier League.
Because, that represents Yang Huan's saints will create the history of the Zào club for more than 100 years and create a new situation.
With one more team to win the title, Chelsea have one more formidable rival.
"In the next round, Manchester United's opponent is Arsenal?"
"Yes!"
"Are you sure?"
Granovskia thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't know, in the past five years, Manchester United's record at the Emirates Stadium is two wins, one draw and two losses, even the Red Devils Manchester United, who swept the Europa that year, failed to take advantage of the Emirates Stadium." ”
"But Arsenal's results and quality have not been satisfactory lately!" Abramovich said.
Granovskia understands that it seems that his boss wants Manchester United to win.
The reason must be that Southampton will end up empty-handed!
"So, a lot of people think that Manchester United are likely to get the three points!"
Granovskia thought for a moment and then said: "However, this game is the finale, Southampton's home match against West Bromwich Albion was held the day before, so ......"
Now that the two teams are on such tight points, there are only four rounds left in the league, and each one is crucial.
So, who hits first and who puts back, these are all advantages and pressures.
Manchester United were previously scheduled for Saturday and Southampton for Sunday, but now it's the other way around.
Abramovich nodded slightly, and beckoned seemingly casually, "Marina! ”
"Boss!" Granovsky immediately leaned some closer.
"I want to help Manchester United!"
As soon as Abramovich said this, Granovskya's eyes immediately showed a different color.
What does the owner mean by this, in the 36th round of the league, Chelsea will play Manchester United away and give away points?
Not to mention that Manchester United is playing at home, and Chelsea who are away from home have little chance of winning.
Besides, even if Chelsea loses, as long as they don't lose too badly, who knows?
What is the benefit of Chelsea if you can help Manchester United?
The answer is, no!
On the contrary, there are a lot of disadvantages!
"Boss, we're not optimistic at the moment, just two points ahead of Arsenal, and if we lose at Old Trafford, then the top four ...... the league"
Granovskia didn't say anything, but the meaning was already clear.
Chelsea are now in an awkward position, with a five-point gap between Manchester City and Manchester United and Southampton even more, and there is no chance of catching up.
But what about the future?
Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are both eyeing each other, one carelessly, losing points, these two London rival teams, it is entirely possible to succeed in the counterattack and reach the top four of the league.
Especially at the stage when this kind of league is nearing the end, once you are kicked out of the top four in the league, it is difficult to regain it!
Who knows, Abramovich listened, but shook his head, "The specific result will be determined by looking at the thirty-fifth round of the league!" ”
Roman Abramovich's message is clear, if United get three points from Arsenal, then Chelsea will push Manchester United.
Anyway, the Blues still have a points advantage over the Gunners.
However, in Granovskia's opinion, Abramovich's decision was risky.
It's not going to be exposed, I'm afraid that if one is not careful, after Chelsea lost to Manchester United, the Red Devils won the championship, but Chelsea lost points again in the last two rounds, and was finally kicked out of the top four in the league, which would be a big loss.
Participating in the Champions League, who is willing to earn tens of millions of pounds a year?
Look at his boss again, he is obviously angry with Yang Huan in Southampton!
Isn't it because the team is good and has hope of winning the championship?
Why fight him so much?
Is it even necessary to do such stupid things that harm oneself and others?
Take Chelsea's hot face and stick it upside down Manchester United's cold ass, and Ferguson won't be grateful to you, as for it?
Abramovich also seems reluctant to talk about it, perhaps he himself finds it difficult to talk about it.
But in his heart, no matter what, even if he did tricks and stumbles, he must prevent the saints from winning the championship!
"Okay, this matter is decided, I'll leave it to you!"
Granovskia is out of line now, can he still disobey the boss?
…………
…………
As the Premier League comes to a close, especially as the title race between Manchester United and the Saints heats up, fans around the world are watching the two teams in action.
When the 35th round of the Premier League kicked off, all the fans were glued to the Saints.
At St Mary's, Southampton were the first to welcome West Bromwich Albion under former Chelsea assistant Clarke.
The Bloomers have been one of the most impressive teams in the Premier League this season, and it has even been predicted that Clarke will be the favourite for Chelsea's boss next season, and he himself is looking forward to it.
Therefore, this battle, Clark is almost fought as a battle of life and death!
Southampton also have high hopes for this game.
Just kidding, there are only four rounds left until the end of the league, and any one of them is a final, and you have to win!
Therefore, Bielsa's team is playing as hard as possible, and the ace attack lineup Trident starts all.
Just six minutes into the game, the Saints opened the scoring for Southampton through the Bloomers through Gareth Bale and set up Neymar to take the lead and keep the score until the break.
But in the second half, Southampton's offensive continued unabated, and it was Neymar's exquisite assist in the 67th minute, and Ibrahimovic broke through Foster's goal, 2-0!
This goal sealed the Saints' three-point victory!
But after that, Ibrahimovic assisted Gareth Bale to score again, 3-0!
The ace trident, all of which are one pass and one shot, is very amazing, and it also shows everyone's strength and determination to win the championship in the last four rounds!
Even Southampton manager Bielsa said after the game that the team would win all the remaining games!
Southampton wins!
