Chapter 417 Time to leave
The farce about Mamadhoo-Sakho has continued.
After the young central defender completely broke his face with the magpie, like a "French version of Xianglin's wife", he kept telling the media reporters about his misfortune, and accused the brutality of the madman Li in Newcastle!
However, after being stopped by angry fans and knocked out his front teeth in the street last time, in order to prevent another beating by fans who were not crazy, the French teenager obviously learned a good lesson and hired seven or eight bodyguards under the arrangement of his agent. For several days, he stayed in his luxurious villa and never came out...
And those giants who originally declared their interest in Mamadou-Sakho, under the ultra-high listing price of 2000 million pounds that Newcastle refused to budge, all retreated, and did not have the guts to make an offer to Newcastle.
Everyone understands that this is Madman Li declaring his existence with strong means!
Take that unlucky ghost who dared to betray him, there is no sense of point killing chickens for monkeys to see. Before the winter transfer period really comes, taking Sakho as an example will obviously give some shock to other young players in the first team who have unreasonable thoughts!
Sure enough, after the strong ban on Sakho, the first-team large-scale contract renewal work hosted by [Kotou Junshi] and Newcastle transfer department director Tolosi-Tang has made breakthrough progress...
This renewal work is mainly aimed at young players.
Therefore, Michael Owen, Ronaldo, Fernando Gago and Podolski and other stars who already enjoy high wages are not in the plan.And Marcelo, Pastore, Manzienni, Hugo Lloris, Nicolas Gigi and others have all been notified by the club to renew their contracts!
It's not like nobody's up to no good!
Originally, Pastore's agent father, who was a little greedy for money, wanted to delay the contract renewal for a while before bargaining, or borrow the favor of other clubs to win a super big contract for his son...
But after experiencing the club's brutal ban on Sakho, the old Javier was terrified, and rushed to be the first to sign a new contract with Newcastle!
The most active performer was Gareth Bell's father Rodgers.
The middle-aged uncle slapped his chest loudly: "Li, you are my son's benefactor, I believe you will find the most suitable path for Bell..."
It seems that before Christmas, Li Tongfan's plan will be perfectly realized!
Soon, every player in the plan obediently signed the contract.
帕斯托雷周薪3.5万，马塞洛4万、加雷斯-贝尔3.5万、萨米-赫迪拉3万英镑，穆萨-西索科2万英镑，胡戈-洛里斯4万、曼齐恩尼2.5万……
Such a salary structure is at the lower middle level among the 20 Premier League teams, and it is completely acceptable for Newcastle.
Moreover, if after the end of the season, the team can win several important championships as planned at the beginning of the season, then it should not be a big problem to achieve a small surplus in the 08-09 season!
However, Lao Li's crazy methods can scare his own players, but they can't stop those giant teams who are slobbering at the Magpies!
As the opening of the winter transfer market is approaching day by day, there are more and more news about player transfers on the portals and newspapers of the football media of the five major leagues, flying all over the sky!
Among them, due to Newcastle's crazy performance in the first half of the season, the players whose value has soared are naturally the most popular among the major giants.
Sacco is not just a special column, Marcelo, Pastore, Khedira, the Eastern European duo [Tsar] and [Eastern European Ronaldinho] naturally attracted many "crazy bees and butterflies"...
"The Times" --
"...Ashley Cole's absence from injury has made it difficult for the Blues to win the championship. In order to fill the vacancy at left back, the Dutch interim coach Guus Hiddink recommended his favorite student in the national team Yuri Zhirkov to the boss Roman Abramovich..."
"News of the World" -
"...Professor Wenger is very interested in the Russian tsar Arshavin. Arshavin's wonderful performance in Newcastle's game against Arsenal has long attracted Wenger's heart...After Walcott and Bendtner were injured successively, Arsenal now urgently need to introduce a frontcourt player with super scoring ability, and the Russian, who is not an absolute main player in Newcastle, is obviously a very suitable choice...
"Sunday"? ——
"...David Thornton's rapid growth in St. James made the Serie A giants Inter Milan, who let go of the supernova at the beginning of the season, regret it... Now, whether it is Moratti or the madman Mourinho, they all hope to be able to bring Thornton back to the San Siro Stadium after the winter transfer market opens...
"Gazzetta dello Sport" -
"... Galliani admitted that they are very interested in Newcastle rookie Nicholas Gigi. The general manager of Milan believes that Gigi's elegant aristocratic temperament is very suitable for Milan. He has the potential to become the next Inzaghi... According to the reporter's analysis, this is not the real reason for Milan's interest in Gigi. With Shevchenko on loan struggling to show his former strength and Borriello unable to integrate into the team for a long time, it is obviously unreliable for Milan's striker to rely solely on Pato and Inzaghi. It is difficult to come up with a large transfer fee during the session. In this way, Milan can only focus on those young players or veterans who are cheap but have good strength. They have been playing as substitutes in Newcastle, but Gigi, who has a good scoring ability, is obviously a very suitable target, and he is still very young..."
"Aspen"...
"Marca"...
"World Sports Daily"...
In this season, news about player transfers and the signings of major giants in the newspapers are like flying catkins in April in the south of the Yangtze River, flying all over the sky, confusing people's eyes, and no one can tell the truth from the fake...
For the players, every time the transfer window opens is an opportunity.
Unhappy people can try their luck with another player, the star of a small team can find a way to climb high and enter the giants to show their strength, the guy who is dissatisfied because of the low salary can get better treatment by changing jobs, and those who hang out in the low-level leagues can jump to the higher-level mainstream leagues...
This is a season of wild desires!
……
In late December, almost all the other five major leagues have entered the winter break, but instead of the winter break, the Premier League has ushered in a more intensive and difficult schedule of games——
Devil's Christmas schedule!
During this period of time, various competitions such as the English League Cup, FA Cup, and league games came one after another, and almost every Premier League team faced a situation of double matches a week.
Team morale, rotation, bench depth, injuries...
Almost all the above factors that determine a team's record are likely to explode during this time period. Therefore, a team's record in the Devil's Christmas schedule almost largely determines their league ranking at the end of the season!
Here comes the real test!
However, for Newcastle, the schedule is still lucky.
Although the Magpies will face 12 games around December 25, the opponents are not too strong, almost all the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League.
12 month 23 day.
Newcastle played against Middlesbrough in the fifth round of the League Cup at home, and finally relied on Nicholas Gigi scored twice after coming off the bench in the second half, defeated the opponent 5-2, and advanced to the quarter-finals of the League Cup.
On December 12, the day before Christmas, the 24th round of the Premier League was rekindled.
Newcastle's opponents were a superhumanly disgusted 'Golden Dollar' Manchester City.
In St. James, this "mercenary" with a large number of powerful stars caused a lot of trouble for the Magpies. Newcastle led three times and they equalized three times. Finally, relying on Argentine veteran Hernan Crespo's lore, Newcastle escaped 4:3!
On December 12th, Newcastle ushered in the first FA Cup game of the season, sweeping Nottingham Forest 27-3 away...
On December 12th, in the 30th round of the Premier League, the Magpies challenged the 'farmer' Fulham away, relying on the goals of Ronaldo and Michael Owen, Newcastle won 20:2...
After this game, the Devil's Christmas schedule of the Magpies finally came to an end.
Of all the teams in the Premier League, Newcastle, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal are all unbeaten in the league...
For the Premier League, this is an era that is heading for glory!
In less than 32 hours, the door to the winter transfer market will be opened. Mamadou Sakho, who was blocked by Li Tongfan, still has not found a club willing to pay him 2000 pounds, but Li Tongfan has long been prepared for the Frenchman's departure!
……
Go back in time for a week.
City of Milan, Italy.
San Siro Stadium.
The Rossoneri AC Milan played at home against Lazio, the last league opponent before the winter break.
"...GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Matuzalen!! He broke through the goal handled by Abbiati...1:0!! AC Milan is behind at home..."
"...Milan's back line made a serious mistake, who is it? Oh, God, it's Senderos again. The Swiss made his 10th league appearance this season, but made the No. 11 mistake...Why did Ancelotti send this glass man and a big colander to play?"
"...Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo God !! Senderos made another mistake
"...At the 70th minute of the game, AC Milan is still 2 goals behind. If they lose the last game before the winter break, they will fall out of the top four in the standings. There is only a theoretical possibility left to win the championship..."
"...Ancelotti replaced Andrei Shevchenko at this time!"
"...But this former Milan hero, after his return on loan this season, played a total of [-] times in the first half of the season as a starter and as a substitute. He had no goals or assists, and completely lost the power of the old warhead. Could it be that Ancelotti is counting on him to save the team?"
"...Good opportunity!! Kaka's through ball is a one-shot... Shevchenko! Shevchenko!! Shevchenko!!!... How is it possible? This is incredible, this is incredible!! He actually shot the football into the stands on the third floor behind the goal. This... This is a one-shot goal!"
"The game is over. AC Milan lost 2:1 to Lazio. Kaka assisted Inzaghi to score a face-saving goal for the Rossoneri! And Shevchenko, who came off the bench, wasted at least three excellent opportunities. Listen to the roar in the San Siro stands. Milan fans use the most fierce words to curse the former heroes..."
The song ends.
The hustle and bustle of the stadium is a stage play with joys and sorrows. After nine or ten minutes of excitement, there is no one there, and the eternal tranquility has been restored...
Shevchenko returned to his home in Milan.
His wife and children stayed in the UK, and now he is alone. In addition to the luxurious furniture, the huge house is more lonely and dark...
The game just now was still slowly replaying in his brain. Shevchenko was tired and leaned weakly on the back of the sofa. He knew that his glory in San Siro was completely over, and he would never get it back...
Six months ago, he originally thought that he would be able to find his status in his old place. He still hoped that the fans of Milan City would forgive him for his betrayal, just like a child who made a mistake, looking forward to the forgiveness of his parents...
However, the cruel facts have proved that these expectations are impossible to realize!
The Sheva of this era has bid farewell to the Sheva of that era forever!
The six months that have just ended have made the former hero understand that the forgiveness he was expecting has become an impossible luxury!
Here, he has been marginalized and is no longer the main force of the team. He has to sit on the bench and wait for opportunities. When Pato, Ronaldinho, and even Borriello are tired from playing, he can only get a few 10 minutes of playing opportunities...
And more often, he can only sit on the bench after 10 minutes, watching the game end, and his former teammates celebrate on the field...
The scene of celebration is so familiar, but he is no longer in the happy figure!
San Siro’s applause will no longer ring for him, and the fans of Milan City will no longer scramble to wear the No. 7 jersey as before. For those fanatical fans before, now, the name Andrei Shevchenko is more like a symbol of a changing era...
The fireworks are brilliant, but they can't last long after all!
Maybe it's time to leave!
But where to go?
Chelsea?
That place filled with boos louder than San Siro, that place that ruined the last glimmer of a career, that place where you can only feel cold and helpless... Will there still be a place for that place?
Or... Or go back to the most primitive place where the dream began, Kipdynamo?However, the nuclear warhead is really not reconciled to leaving the European mainstream league so early...
At this time, the phone rang suddenly——
Jingle Bell! ! !
In this empty and dark room, Shevchenko was startled by the sudden ringtone. He picked up the phone and saw it was an unfamiliar number...
