The 227th local tyrant is coming
Champions are always exciting and memorable!
The next morning, the whole Manchester United team returned to Manchester from France on the club's chartered flight, and the defending UEFA Super Cup team was warmly welcomed by the Manchester United fans, although it was far from the so-called crowd of thousands of people, but the scene was still extremely lively.
As for Jonker personally, scoring at the Stadio de Monaco II to help the team win the UEFA Super Cup, scoring his first goal of the new season, but also temporarily freeing himself from the criticism of the media, those who were ready to read jokes and criticize Jonker, after seeing Jonk help Manchester United win the cup, immediately shut up, and removed the manuscripts that were ready to criticize Jonk, and turned to some almost numb praise.
Fortunately, Jonker now has a certain immunity to what the media says, whether it is praise or criticism, otherwise, he will really be numb to death when he sees the words of reporters, and he himself knows that although he has scored, but in the European Super Cup match with Zenit St. Petersburg, his state can only be said to be average, far from being as awesome as the reporters say.
Manchester United's home game against Fulham has also been postponed due to their participation in the UEFA Super Cup, and the match will be replayed at a later date.
In the games that have ended, Liverpool were held to a 0-0 draw away by Aston Villa, Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw by Tottenham Hotspur in the London derby at the Emirates Stadium, and only Arsenal, who lost in the last round of the league, beat Newcastle 3-0 at home.
Overall, though, with Manchester United having one game less. Several other big teams have not been able to pull away from the gap.
This round of league games will be followed by a two-week league suspension. It's the national team break, and the 2010 World Cup Europe Qualifiers in South Africa will kick off on September 6. This also means that the whole football world has really entered the countdown time for the World Cup in South Africa.
The Portuguese team was concentrated on 1 September, so Jonker, who returned to Manchester from Monaco, was only able to stay at home for one day before having to travel to the Portuguese team for training.
This also made Jonk shout tired, this is not hypocrisy, it is indeed tired, from last season to this season. Jonk barely rested, and his whole body was in a state of strict overdraft.
These days are also suffocating, and Jonk has to find some relaxation for his day's vacation......
In the morning, in a daze, I was thinking about how to spend a day of vacation, and suddenly felt that my hand was being held, and then I felt the good feel of the jade rabbit.
No, it feels a little wrong, and it's a little bigger......
JONK LOOKED DOWN JUST IN TIME TO SEE 'NANA' OPEN HIS EYES. He looked at himself red-faced, and his breath was very short.
"Hell! Melissa? Is that you? Jonk jumped to his feet.
There was a uh-huh, but it really sounded like a moan, in the dark red light. It's so seductive.
Jonk screamed again, turned on the chandelier in the living room, and lay down on the couch. The little blushing was not Melissa. Moreover, you can see the snow-white breasts. With heavy breathing, it shrugged slightly.
"Uh...... Melissa, I didn't know it was you, I really didn't, I thought it was NANA, oh,, by the way, when did you come here and how did you get in? ”
Jonk was babbling a lot, he didn't even know what he was talking about, he was just thinking about what he had just done. It seems to be ...... It was as if he had reached into Melissa's pajamas...... Well, it feels very good...... Oh, what are you thinking!
Melissa is the daughter of the housekeeper's uncle, and occasionally looks after the house for Jonck. Jonk hurriedly poured two glasses of ice water, one for himself and one for Melissa.
"Thank you." Melissa took the glass of water and took a sip, "Today the school organizes an event, it's too late, the dormitory is closed, so I'm here......"
Jonk cooed, drank water vigorously, and motioned to Melissa to continue, he didn't open his mouth because he didn't know what to say, and it was embarrassing at this time, just thinking that when he kneaded Melissa's breasts just now, it was best not that the little girl did it on purpose, however, even Jonk himself didn't believe in this possibility, but he heard Melissa moaning, don't be too hard, it hurts.
At this time, Jonke just thought about how to explain, but he didn't notice that he touched Melissa in a daze, it shouldn't be anything!
However, Melissa took the initiative to hold her hand and touched it, and she still enjoyed it, uh, it's a big deal?
"Have you had dinner?"
"Eat." Melissa nodded, but continued, "I'm a little hungry again." ”
Jonk hurried to prepare food for Melissa, he didn't ring the bell to call the maid in the maid's room, this was to find something to do for himself, to relieve the awkward atmosphere.
I got some food casually, and hastily ate 'dinner', and both of them were silent, which also made Jonk breathe a sigh of relief, he was afraid of what Melissa would say now, and he really didn't know how to answer, he didn't go out to fool around for a few days, who would have thought that just a little idea, something so strange would happen.
"Rest early." Jonk didn't bother to wash the dishes, so he left them there and waited for the maid to come and wash them tomorrow morning.
Melissa agreed, jumped upstairs as if she was nothing, walked halfway, ran back again, walked to Jonker's side, and looked at Jonk's eyes very seriously, "Is it comfortable to touch?" ”
"It's okay, it's just a little smaller." Jonk subconsciously said casually, after saying that he wanted to slap himself, and then just when Jonk was embarrassed and thinking about how to explain, Melissa suddenly stood on tiptoe, kissed Jonk on the forehead, and ran towards the upstairs guest room with a smile.
What kind of thing is this TMD?
Jonker felt like his brain was going to explode, and even when he was in a goal drought after the start of the season, he didn't bother him so much.
Lying in the bedroom, Jonker stared at the ceiling and thought wildly.
To Jonk's reassurance, it seems that Melissa doesn't intend to tell her butler Anthony about it. Well, that's the most important thing. Jonk was absolutely convinced that if Anthony knew he would dare to 'punch her chest' at Melissa. It seems that he is still kneading wantonly for half a minute, and he will definitely fight with himself.
Wait, Melissa seems to be still underage, if this matter is known by the media, a sexually harassed underage girl, I can't figure out that I will be invited to coffee.
Touching his forehead, Melissa kissed the part just now, Jonk sighed, the question is. He still remembered the feeling of kneading it just now in his mind, hell, what's wrong.
This is the daughter of her housekeeper, or a little Lori, but she can't breathe and think about it.
The phone rang, it was a text message.
"Melissa will definitely have a better feel than Nana's sister, don't worry."
What is this, don't worry, what do I care? Jonk threw his phone on the bedside, crying and laughing.
On this day, Jonk didn't feel very good, and the original plan didn't go ahead.
In a room not far away. Melissa was also tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and the little girl glanced at the door from time to time...... The door of her room was hidden......
The next morning. Jonk gets up early and gets breakfast ready. Tell Melissa to get up for breakfast, and he himself has to drive to London early. The special plane went to the place where the Portuguese team was concentrated.
Unlike Jonker's nervousness, little Lori Melissa is very calm, as usual, from time to time to say some interesting things in school, to this, Jonk can only keep laughing and responding, he makes himself as normal as usual.
"In half a month, Melissa will have a coming-of-age ceremony." Melissa said abruptly changing the subject.
"Huh?!" Jonk looked up, munching on the vegetable salad in his mouth, stunned.
When Jonk arrived in Lisbon, reporters who had been waiting at the airport for a long time rushed to him.
This is the first time that the team has concentrated after Portugal won the Delaunay Cup in the European Championship to start the European qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, which is a big event for Portugal.
"Jonker, what are your goals for the 2010 World Cup and for Portugal?"
"I would like to draw attention to the fact that we are in South Africa and we have a long way to go before the World Cup finals, and of course we are confident that we will be in the World Cup finals." Jonk said with a smile.
"Isn't the match against Denmark on September 10 very memorable for you?"
'Denmark is a very special opponent for me, they are very strong and of course, before that we have the game against Malta, and we have to take this game seriously.
One would expect a lot of goals against Malta, but Trinidad and Tobago's performance at the 2006 World Cup proved that nothing will come easily, and Jonk said calmly, "Until you score the first goal, it's not going to be easy." We have to think about that all the time. ”
However, from Jonker's tone, there is no seriousness about Malta, of course, every Portuguese journalist present also thinks the same, for Portugal's opponent in the first game Malta, almost everyone thinks that it is an absolute fish belly, the only role of this team is to let Portugal's forwards score a few more goals before the heavyweight confrontation between Portugal and Denmark, improve self-confidence and hone their state.
No one thinks that Malta will bring trouble to Portugal, let alone that Malta is a fish belly, besides, Portugal is the champion of Europe, we are the king of Europe, and we don't see who will kill whom?
This is the general state of mind in the whole Portuguese football, that is, the second away game against Denmark in the qualifiers, the Portuguese have regarded this game as a revenge game, in the eyes of the Portuguese, Croatia made Portugal almost humiliated in the Euro 2008 qualifiers, and now, it is time for the European champions Portugal to teach Denmark a lesson!
Malta is an island country located in the middle of the Mediterranean, consisting of a number of islands in the Mediterranean, known as the "heart of the Mediterranean", and is a well-known leisure resort area.
Founded in 1900, the Malta Football Association has a long history, having joined FIFA in 1959 and became a member of UEFA in 1960.
Although Portugal's first opponent in the 2010 World Cup qualifiers in South Africa, Malta, was poor, Sky TV reported in more detail given that it was the first game of the European champions Portugal in South Africa.
Portugal enjoyed the treatment of kings on their home turf.
There was a burst of laughter in front of the TV, and the Portuguese fans were high. They were enjoying the glory of the kings of Europe, for the mighty Portugal. Malta really has nothing but being ridiculed and laughed at.
However, it was just as Jonk left Manchester and drove to Lisbon for a training camp in Portugal. Another storm was set off in Manchester.
The focal point of the storm is Brazilian star Robinho.
Hours before the transfer window closes, a battle for Robinho involving Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester City heats up. Robinho has been in contact with Chelsea, and he has openly said that he wants to leave; However, there has been no agreement between Chelsea and Real Madrid on the transfer fee.
Negotiations stalled, and at this critical juncture, Manchester City, who had just changed their chairman, suddenly stepped in to negotiate and Manchester City bid for Robinho for a record £32.5 million, which was in fact also seen as a replacement for Manchester City's bid for Jonker after Manchester United adamantly rejected it.
Manchester City's offer broke the deadlock once and for all. Real Madrid immediately agreed to City's offer.
One hour before the transfer window closes, that is, at 23 o'clock last night, the official website of Real Madrid issued an official statement, which declared: "Real Madrid and Manchester City have reached an agreement in the last time before the transfer window closes, and Brazilian player Robinho has successfully joined Manchester City".
At the same time, the newspaper "As" revealed that Robinho will enjoy an annual salary of 6 million.
Subsequently, Real Madrid president Calderón confirmed that Robinho was personally willing to join Manchester City. Calderón said: "The fact is that it is. Robinho has accepted City's offer and has also indicated his reluctance to play for Real Madrid this season. Selling him is not Real Madrid's policy, but for the sake of humanity, we think it's the best solution. ”
Arrive at the Lisbon training base. The Portuguese team doctor gave Jonker a detailed medical check-up, and it was on TV as he lay down at the masseur to receive a massage from the Portuguese team's masseur. Sky is tracking Robinho's arrival in Manchester.
A large number of Manchester City fans can be seen welcoming Robinho's arrival, and Manchester City fans are holding up his portrait. and a banner welcoming Robinho to the arrival of the Brazilian star at Manchester Airport.
at the airport. Robinho greeted the City fans with a smile on his face, and the cheers could be heard even in front of the TV as he held up a 'Blue Moon' shirt aloft in the air.
Manchester City manager Mark Murphy. Hughes looked excited in an interview with the media, saying that after the medical examination, Robinho will officially sign with Manchester City. Facing the camera, the Manchester City manager said with a smile on his face that he had a vertigo sense of happiness: "How do I feel? I felt both dizzy and excited like all the fans......"
After the day's training, the Portuguese players were talking about Robinho's move to Manchester City, and few paid special attention to the home game against Malta.
Manchester City has always given the impression of nouveau riche, and it is difficult to attract superstars to join, which is a bit of a feeling of raising eyebrows. Of course, this also has to do with the fact that Robinho's position does not conflict with their position and does not pose much of a threat, otherwise, it would be too late for these people to worry.
Al-Fahim has a very amiable round face, and the way he smiles at the camera is not at all intimidating. But when he casually said that the winter transfer market was ready to bid for £134 million for Jonker, the arrogant tone not only shocked the Red Devils fans in the same city, but the Glazer family, the chairman of Manchester United, almost couldn't resist it, and they pursued Berbatov for a summer, and they were almost brought to the sky blue stadium by Fahim for a higher transfer fee.
To investigate how rich Al-Fahim really is to lose his direction. Fahim, nicknamed "The Downer Trump of the Middle East", is the most prominent genius in the American real estate industry, almost single-handedly sketching the outlines of New York, Washington and other cities.
Al Fahim is only 31 years old, proficient in chess and has an extremely high IQ. In 2005, he founded Hydra Real Estate Company, and in just three years, he built skyscrapers everywhere in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, and has become the brightest new star in Abu Dhabi, where the real estate industry is developed.
In the Middle East, a land full of rich people, Al-Fahim's personal wealth has reached 14th, surrounded by women. It's all Hollywood superstars like Demi Moore.
But don't get it wrong: if you don't have an Abu Dhabi royal background. Al Fahim is, at best, a new Abu. He can't even reach the heights of the owner of Stamford Bridge, who is a football-fanatic, second-best monster.
Abu Dhabi royal family. Mansour Al Nahyan is the real power behind Al-Fahim, and the concept he brings to the Premier League is completely new and subversive. Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) are a topic that has been active in the world's financial markets in recent years, and most of them are concentrated in oil-exporting countries and export-oriented economies. The most active is the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, the most important institution in this acquisition of Manchester City.
To put it simply, the national income of oil- and gas-rich countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Norway, and Saudi Arabia is too high, and the government surplus funds are snowballing, so they manage this part of the fund in a very transparent way.
How much assets does Abu Dhabi Investment Authority have? Even a magazine like Forbes, which specializes in wealth assessments, can't say for sure, but it's estimated. Their investment in the world has reached $873 billion, in the fields of bonds, finance, real estate, etc., "buy an airline one month, buy the next team next month to play, this is their life." People familiar with this circle commented.
But it's not just oil-boggling Middle Eastern royalty who have their eye on the Premier League. Compared to North American bankers, they are already "second-generation immigrants".
The Glazer family's takeover of Manchester United has given smart Americans a sudden glimpse into a new way of thinking about playing ticket football: the White Wolf with empty gloves.
Relying on bank loans to buy a team, and then letting the club take on most of the responsibility of paying off the debt, he effortlessly watched the bank money roll in. American businessman Randy Lerner also came. He bought Aston Villa. However, due to Lerner's own strong cultural and artistic temperament, he has won the hearts of the people in the past two years.
Manchester United's success has made credit capital in the Premier League for a while, especially since London itself is a financial paradise for investment. The government has loose policies and has the advantage of overseas tax havens.
Manchester United are under pressure to repay up to £46 million a year, but rely on Old Trafford's frantic matchday earnings and results. In the Deloitte report every season, the club is in a good place.
Then dial it up. It was the now notorious Hicks and Gillette, who engaged in a face-to-face hand-to-hand fight with the oil capital. But the former chairman of Liverpool was a traditional old-fashioned British businessman. He trusted the Anglo-American financial circle, which was integrated with the inheritance, and gave up the unfamiliar DIC, the Middle Eastern oil capital that first began to flock to the Premier League, when there was a better choice. Today, Peter Kilfer, a member of the Liverpool House of Commons who was involved in the negotiations, looks back and regrets: "As a local government official, I thought DIC's wealth background was more appealing. If they take over the club, I believe it will help the whole city of Liverpool. Selling to the Americans, this is really a huge mistake. "But if former Liverpool chairman David Moore had understood that Abu had in fact started with Middle Eastern oil, would he have made the decision to choose Uncle Sam?
This "huge mistake" starts to emerge when investors can't borrow money from the bank. Americans who live on credit have a certain period of bank loans, and when the maturity approaches, they need to rely on refinancing to pay off short-term debt.
When Hicks and Gillett bought Liverpool in early 2007, they borrowed £250 million from the Royal Bank of Scotland, plus the subsequent costs of buying players and hiring an architectural firm to design the stadium, totalling £350 million. By early 2008, they had to finance the repayment of their previous short-term loans. The Americans almost didn't even jump over this hurdle.
The subprime mortgage crisis, which began in North America, was the one who started Glazel's difficult life. However, what makes the Premier League's credit-based investors even more frightening is that their opponents, the Middle Easterners, are the players of the banks on which they depend.
In November 2007, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority invested US$7.5 billion in Citigroup, the largest international bank in the United States, and acquired a 4.9% stake in the bank, becoming the largest shareholder of Citigroup. Who is the second shareholder? Saudi Prince! He holds a 4.3% stake.
The situation is very clear, and the banks that keep the Glazers alive have gradually become the playthings of the oil capital of the Middle East. They rendered New York, London and the Stock Exchange in black oil, then all kinds of sporting events, including F1, horse racing, golf and other aristocratic games, and then Manchester City.
The subprime mortgage crisis that is currently sweeping the world will indeed cost them a lot of money, but they are nothing compared to the strong and rising oil prices!
The collapse of credit is gradually showing its traces. At Old Trafford, debt-ridden Ferguson didn't dare buy anyone in the summer because they had to save money to eat Berbatov.
The Red Devils had a difficult start to the season, but fortunately, the manager had the courage to throw off a sentence: winning the championship without bringing in reinforcements, which gave credit capital some confidence, but it still could not hide the embarrassment that Manchester United really only bought one player this summer. (To be continued......)
