I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 139 The local tyrant is coming! We are going to win the triple crown! [Subscribe]

"Okay, another chance to steal the ball in the midfield!"

"A quick counterattack by the Chinese in Bayswater."

"It was still passed to the left and given to Di Maria."

"Look at this time Di Maria dribbled down the left wing."

"Zambrotta's defensive positioning was very good."

"Di Maria made a cross and it reached the front of the penalty area."

"Arshavin volleyed it straight away."

"The ball hit Milito in the penalty area."

"Dzeko blocked Puyol with his body, stopped the ball and had no chance to turn around."

"The pass went out of the penalty area and was passed back to Di Maria."

"Di Maria passes again."

"Back point, Arshavin!"

"The header didn't go in."

“After the start of the second half, the Bayswater Chinese were still very aggressive and their attack was very threatening.”

“Especially the left side.”

"Di Maria was very active at the start of the second half."

“If, in the first half, Bayswater Chinese’s attack was mainly concentrated on the right side, then now, Di Maria’s side has become a very important offensive means.”

"The score is still 3-0!"

"Rijkaard doesn't seem to have any good solution."

"There's not even any sign of a desire to change players."

"At this time, Barcelona should actually strengthen its defense appropriately."

"The Bayswater Chinese attack was so fierce and they repeatedly created threats in the penalty area."

"If Barcelona continues like this, it is very likely that they will lose the ball again."

……

"Barcelona's midfield coordination."

"Xavi passed the ball to the right side of the frontcourt."

"Eto'o passes the ball across the field to Bojan."

"Thiago Silva made a tackle."

"Bojan fell to the ground, but the referee did not blow the whistle."

"Yaya Toure made a quick pass to Modric."

"A quick counterattack by the Chinese in Bayswater."

"Barcelona's defenders need to hurry back to defend."

"Look at this time, Modric advanced to the midline and sent a straight pass behind him, still looking for Di Maria."

"Di Maria and Zambrotta are competing in speed."

"The Argentine was faster and caught up with the ball first and entered the penalty area."

"Stop suddenly, spike the ball..."

"Fake action!"

"Di Maria was like a noodle man, dribbling past Zambrotta, running down the baseline and firing a cross."

"Puyol headed the ball away at a crucial moment."

"The ball landed outside the penalty area."

"Modric is coming up."

"Let's see how we handle this time."

"Dribble the ball to the left side of the arc, pass it to the left side, and look for Di Maria."

"The Argentine didn't stop the ball and just made a cross, this time it was a low shot."

When Di Maria made this cross, Dzeko was blocked by Puyol on the left side of the penalty spot.

The Bosnian center forward simply couldn't move forward.

On the contrary, Modric just passed the ball through the crowd and then quickly moved forward.

But how can his speed be as fast as the ball?

Just when everyone thought that no one would respond to this pass, suddenly a red figure came from the right side of the penalty spot and went straight to the right side of the goal.

When Di Maria's cross came over, Arshavin threw himself out.

This ball is dangerous.

If you are not careful, you may hit the pillar at any time.

But Arshavin no longer cared about that.

Because he is facing Barcelona!
A team he has loved since he was a child and dreamed of joining.

In fact, he had already thought about it long before he decided to join Bayswater Chinese.

The Premier League is just a stepping stone for him, and Bayswater Chinese are just a bridge for him to reach Barcelona.

He longs to play for Barca!

He hopes to have a dream career at Barcelona!

The best way to join Barcelona is to give your best performance in the game against Barcelona and let Barcelona see your strength!
So Arshavin threw himself out at all costs.

He didn't care even if it meant hitting the right post.

The Russians' tough approach even shocked Gabriel Milito.

He tried his best to stop Arshavin, but in the end, he couldn't stop him at all.

The Argentine center back could only watch Arshavin slide past him and, with a sliding shot, send both him and the ball into Barcelona's goal.

It almost hit the right pillar!

Too dangerous!

but……

"The ball went in!!!"

"Arshavin wins again!"

"Two goals!"

"The Russian player is very motivated. He even risked getting injured in order to seize this opportunity and win another victory for the Chinese in Bayswater!"

"4 to 0!"

"The army was defeated like a mountain!"

"Tonight's game reminded me of the European Super Cup at the Stade Louis II in Monaco in late August 2007."

"That match was also 4-0!"

"The difference is that Barcelona was very unwilling to accept the defeat that time because they thought that their schedule caused them to be overly tired, which gave the Bayswater Chinese an opportunity to take advantage."

"But now, the two teams met in the Champions League quarter-finals, visiting Wembley Stadium, and Barcelona suffered another 0-4 defeat. Rijkaard's team has basically been eliminated from the Champions League."

"This is bound to be a painful blow to Barcelona."

……

When Arshavin's sliding shot sent the ball into Barcelona's goal, Yang Cheng on the sidelines could no longer contain his excitement. He clenched his fists and cheered towards the stadium.

4 is better than 0!

Another 4-0!

"The fate between us and Barcelona all comes from 4-0!"

Brian Kidd was also very happy. He rushed out of the coaching seat, pulled Yang Cheng's shirt and kept shouting.

The entire stadium was filled with cheers.

Yang Cheng stood in the middle of the court, feeling as if he was in a roaring ocean.

This feeling is really great!

On the field, the players performed brilliantly, in the stands, the fans cheered enthusiastically...

All of this made Yang Cheng feel an unprecedented sense of ambition and passion!
"Brian!"

Brian Kidd heard Yang Cheng's shouting with all his might and hurried over.

He found that at this moment Yang Cheng had stopped smiling, but his expression was extremely excited.

"This season, we are going to win all the championships!"

"Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, we want them all!"

"No one left behind!"

Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and spoke with all his strength.

Brian Kidd was completely excited when he heard this.

He rarely saw Yang Cheng lose his composure like this.

Over the years, he always felt that Yang Cheng possessed a maturity and stability that was completely inconsistent with his age.

For example, he never shouts slogans or goals that he is not sure of.

This time, he actually shouted that he wanted to win the Triple Crown!

I have to say that this goal is indeed exciting and thrilling.

Even though Brian Kidd's deepest reason told him that this goal was too radical, he still couldn't help but nod and support Yang Cheng's decision.

How many opportunities like this can you have in your life?
Brian Kidd has already missed a chance at a Triple Crown.

Because he chose to coach Blackburn midway.

Therefore, Manchester United's treble in 99 actually had little to do with him.

This is also his biggest regret in this life.

Those players were all trained by him personally, and he has a very close relationship with each of them.

But when they celebrated their success, there was no place for Brian Kidd.

So, Brian Kidd dreams of winning the Triple Crown.

Too aggressive a goal?
Then be radical!

The worst that can happen is failure and humiliation!

But if you have such an opportunity and don’t rush for it and fight for it, what a pity it would be!

……

Bayswater Chinese finally defeated Barcelona 4-0 with Arshavin's double goal and goals from Dzeko and Yaya Toure!

The news of this victory quickly spread throughout European football and around the world.

Countless media and fans are rushing to report on it.

No one expected that Barcelona, ​​which has suffered so many disasters this season, would be beaten so badly away from home.

If the 07-0 defeat in the 4 European Super Cup could be explained as an accident, what about now?
The Catalan media took the lead and directly pointed the finger at Rijkaard.

The Daily Sports believed that there were serious problems with Rijkaard's on-the-spot command, as he failed to change the team's lineup and tactics in time, which allowed the Bayswater Chinese to score again and again.

"This is the darkest match in Barcelona's history!"

Daily Sports believes that it was Rijkaard's stupidity and the incompetence of Barcelona's frontcourt stars that led to this disastrous defeat.

"It is the saddest thing that on this night at Wembley in London, there was not a single player on the pitch worthy of wearing the Barcelona jersey!"

Even Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta and others failed to put in a convincing performance.

Barcelona's midfield was even suppressed by the Bayswater Chinese midfield.

"The passing game that Xavi and Iniesta are best at lost its effect at Wembley. They were intercepted by the midfield time and time again and were beaten back on the counterattack time and time again."

As for the defense, there is no need to say more. They have been scolded countless times this season.

This is actually not the first time that Barcelona has suffered such a devastating defeat.

In La Liga, they lost 1-3 to Villarreal away from home.

A 2-4 defeat to Atletico Madrid away from home.

Not to mention losing 0-1 at home and 1-4 away to Real Madrid.

It is no secret that Barcelona's defense is terrible this season.

But no one expected that Barcelona would lose so badly in London.

We couldn't even score a single away goal.

Isn't this equivalent to being eliminated directly in the first round?
Mundo Deportivo also wrote an article accusing Rijkaard's players of lacking motivation to play.

"Barcelona felt strange in this match at Wembley in London."

"In this game, not even one person gave a satisfactory performance."

The frontcourt was divided into two groups, the midfield was blocked from passing the ball, and the backcourt was full of holes.

Even goalkeeper Valdes made several low-level mistakes during the game.

Such a Barcelona is unbelievable and there is no hope at all.

"There were calls for Rijkaard to be sacked as early as last summer, but the management decided to give him another chance."

"But now, it turns out that he can't save Barcelona at all."

Mundo Deportivo believes that Mourinho is the most powerful and influential coach among the current unemployed coaches at home.

Moreover, Mourinho is good at defense. If he comes to coach Barcelona, ​​he will undoubtedly reorganize the team's technical and tactical system and manage the locker room well.

This is what Barcelona needs most urgently at the moment.

However, not everyone sees it that way.

In his column, Cruyff made no secret of his disappointment over Barcelona's crushing defeat.

"The best team won and the Bayswater Chinese deserve recognition."

For Rijkaard's team, Cruyff believes that the main problem lies on the psychological level.

"The team's overall strength is not a big problem, but the players are experiencing a serious psychological crisis."

How to solve?

Cruyff does not think that Mourinho is the most suitable person to solve Barcelona's current crisis.

On the contrary, he believes that the Portuguese madman's coaching style, demeanor, and his skills and tactics are not suitable for Barcelona.

"If he comes to coach, it will be a nightmare for Xavi, Iniesta and even Messi!"

If not Mourinho, who should we choose?

Cruyff strongly recommends Tottenham Hotspur manager Juande Ramos.

As early as last summer, he believed that Juande Ramos had the ability to coach Barcelona.

If Juande Ramos is not able to play, Cruyff believes that Guardiola, the head coach of Barcelona B, would also be a good choice.

"But I'm not sure yet if he's ready for it."

As for the coming season, especially the second leg a week later, Cruyff once again expressed his views.

"I gave the team a heads up long before they left for London."

"Reduce some lateral passes and back passes, because Bayswater Chinese counterattack very quickly and are very efficient in switching from defense to offense. With our fragile back line, it is difficult to defend against them."

"As a result, everyone saw it!"

Cruyff believes that returning to Camp Nou is a game to prove himself and he can no longer dwell on winning or losing.

The most important thing is to play to Barcelona's own tactical characteristics.

“Try to suppress the Bayswater Chinese in the opponent’s half.”

"It turns out that if we can't suppress our opponent, our defense line won't hold at all. We're doomed!"

Cruyff also spoke highly of the Chinese players in Bayswater.

Especially for Dzeko and Arshavin.

Cruyff believes that this season Dzeko has grown into the most comprehensive and powerful center forward in Europe.

"He can play almost any role at the center position, and his tactical execution is very high."

"I can't imagine a better center than him."

"Ibrahimovic? Maybe he's better, but I like Dzeko!"

"Arshavin is a player who easily impresses people. He has shown his technical prowess on the court and he is very fast."

"He has been a Barcelona fan since he was a child. Does he like the Dream Team?"

"That's great, I think he's the type of player who was born to play for Barcelona."

……

Compared with the Spanish media, the British media were more inclined to praise the outstanding performance of the Chinese in Bayswater.

Especially Arshavin.

In this season's Premier League, Cristiano Ronaldo is undoubtedly the best performing star.

But Arshavin's performance is not inferior to Ronaldo.

Despite scoring fewer goals, Arshavin has many more assists than Ronaldo.

More importantly, the level of performance of the Tsar on the court is obviously higher than that of everyone else.

This is very rare!
As early as the winter break, the media had reported that top teams including Chelsea and Real Madrid were coveting Arshavin and hoped to sign the Russian Tsar this summer.

Not long ago, The Sun also broke the news that the battle for Arsenal has become fierce.

Usmanov, a wealthy man from Russia, promised that if he took over Arsenal, he would bring Arshavin to Arsenal. This would be a revolutionary signal!

From now on, Arsenal will no longer sell players, but will bring in stars!
This also caused widespread discussion among Arsenal fans.

It is indeed important to maintain the club's British traditions.

But in the current environment of the Premier League, introducing superstars and improving strength is indeed very attractive.

After Abramovich took over Chelsea, the Blues' tradition seemed to have not changed much, but their overall strength has been greatly improved.

What's more, now the top five teams in the Premier League, except Arsenal, are all controlled by foreign capital.

Manchester United is the American Glazer family, the Bayswater Chinese are the Chinese Yang family, Liverpool is the American Gillette and Hicks, and Chelsea is the Russian Abramovich.

Arsenal is the only one left.

In this case, do the Gunners want to maintain their so-called tradition?
Or should we keep pace with the times, introduce foreign investment and enhance our own competitiveness?
This has caused heated discussions not only in the British media, but also among Arsenal fans and even within the Arsenal board of directors.

All kinds of opinions exist, and they all seem to make sense.

In response to the discussion in the outside media, Bayswater Chinese only had Adam Crozier come forward to repeatedly emphasize that Arshavin is the core player of the team and is not for sale.

Apart from this, everything else does not mix.

But in private, Yang Cheng secretly held a meeting with Adam Crozier.

"Until the European Cup is over, refuse to negotiate with anyone, I still say that..."

"Not for sale!" Adam Crozier now understands the essence of unscrupulous businessmen.

Yang Cheng laughed.

In his previous life, he had never coached Arshavin, so naturally he had no idea and thought that the Tsar just happened to perform above his level in the European Cup.

But now, he is sure that Arshavin will shine in the European Cup.

Because he was fully committed and even pinned all his hopes for his life on this European Cup.

He missed the 02 World Cup in Korea and Japan, the 04 European Cup in Portugal, and the 06 World Cup in Germany for various reasons. This is the biggest pain in Arshavin's heart.

The 08 European Cup was his first major international tournament so far.

Moreover, his current condition is also very good and his entire career has reached its peak.

Therefore, in this European Cup, no one can stop Arshavin.

As for how high he can go, Yang Cheng doesn't know.

"I heard that you are going for the Triple Crown?" Adam Crozer also heard the news.

The goals set by the coaching staff are no secret within the team.

Yang Cheng nodded.

The goal was set when I was excited, but thinking about it afterwards, it’s normal.

At this point, you still don't dare to shout out. Is that acceptable?

As for the goal, no one knows whether it can be achieved or not, but if you don’t even dare to shout it out, then you are too cowardly.

"The FA Cup semi-final..."

In the FA Cup semi-finals, Bayswater Chinese will challenge West Bromwich Albion away.

“We still play with all substitutes and young players.”

Yang Cheng nodded solemnly, "This is what we promised the players before the season. No matter what level they play, they will be allowed to play in all cup matches. So we must do what we say."

For West Bromwich, Yang Cheng is still very confident even if he plays with substitutes and young players. The head coach either does not make promises easily in the locker room, or once he makes a promise, he must keep his word.

Why is Gallas so determined to leave Chelsea?
It's because Mourinho did not fulfill his promise to him.

This is just one player.

What about the entire locker room?
The horizontal bar establishes credibility, Yang Cheng does what he says!
……

Three days after the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, the Premier League entered its 8rd round.

The most watched match in this round is Arsenal's home game against Liverpool.

Before the season, everyone thought that the Gunners should be a cast-iron bachelor.

Unexpectedly, Liverpool's performance this season is even worse than Arsenal's.

The current points gap between the two teams has widened to 6 points.

This direct dialogue will undoubtedly become a key factor in the final ranking.

If Liverpool beat Arsenal away, everything can still be saved.

Whether they lose or draw, the Red Army will have a very difficult time next.

In fact, it’s basically settled.

But I don’t know what the problem was, Liverpool’s opening tactics were actually cautious and tentative.

As a result, the game was naturally dominated by Arsenal, who had better passing and ball control capabilities.

By the time the Red Army's performance improved and the two sides began to fight back and forth, more than half an hour had passed.

It wasn't until the 42nd minute of the first half that Crouch scored against the Gunners.

In the second half, Arsenal continued to adopt a quick counterattack tactic, taking advantage of Aaron Lennon's speed on the right.

But in the 54th minute, Arsenal got a free kick opportunity on the left. Fabregas assisted Bendtner and scored with a header from close range, successfully equalizing the score.

In the end, the two teams shook hands and made peace.

This battle basically sentenced Liverpool to death.

There are only five rounds left in the Premier League, and the points gap between Liverpool and Arsenal remains at 5 points. It is basically impossible to catch up.

It is basically no problem for the Gunners to return to the Champions League this season.

This made Yang Cheng a little disappointed.

I originally thought that Wenger's team had broken the shackles of the top four.

But unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, we are back in the top four of the league.

It was also in this round that Manchester United drew 2-2 with Middlesbrough away.

C Ronaldo and Rooney each scored a goal, but still failed to beat Middlesbrough.

In the away game against Newcastle, Bayswater Chinese conceded a goal in the 18th minute through Martins, but Walcott equalized the score in the first half.

In the second half, Lewandowski reversed the score in the 58th minute.

In the end, Bayswater Chinese reversed Newcastle 2-1 away.

In this round, Chelsea defeated Manchester City 2-0 away.

As a result, after the 33rd round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese narrowed the points gap with Manchester United and is currently only 1 point behind.

By the way, young player Walcott has scored in three consecutive Premier League games.

Especially in the last two rounds.

The scripts for the last two games have been similar.

Bayswater Chinese lost the ball at about the same time and fell behind.

Then Walcott equalized the score.

Yang Cheng, Gianni Vio and others have also carefully analyzed this issue. It is a coincidence, but not entirely a coincidence.

If you look closely at the time when Bayswater Chinese lost the ball, it is easy to find that after the opening attack, if they fail to take the ball, it is easy to lose the ball in the following period.

This is not just a problem for the Chinese in Bayswater themselves.

Opponents are also taking advantage of the rhythm of the Bayswater Chinese. They will withstand your opening blitzkrieg first, and then counterattack you when you want to take a break.

Therefore, it is easy to lose the ball during this 10 to 20 minute period.

Neither Blackburn nor Newcastle are easy opponents. It is normal that the Chinese in Bayswater failed to score in the opening attack and were seized by the opponent to counterattack.

But Yang Cheng’s coaching team will definitely have to make some preparations for this next.

It's not a good thing to always lose it like this.

……

After the 33rd round of the Premier League, Arsenal has a high probability of retaining its qualification for the Champions League next season.

This immediately caused the Gunners fans to go wild.

But in the capital market, many things have been moving forward irreversibly.

After the home draw with Liverpool, the Independent, which has close ties with Arsenal, was the first to disclose that the Gunners' acquisition had made substantial breakthroughs and progress.

This is the first time that The Independent has revealed specific details of the negotiations.

According to the media close to Arsenal, the prices offered by the two potential acquirers are similar.

Both Usmanov and Kroenke want to acquire Arsenal for a valuation of £5 million.

But their acquisition methods are completely different.

Both of them set up a company specifically for the acquisition of Arsenal, but Kroenke himself could not come up with so much money and wanted to complete the acquisition of Arsenal through bank loans.

This is also a common means of capital operation.

The real difference is that after the acquisition, Kroenke is more inclined to help Arsenal out of its predicament through debt restructuring, and the company will be responsible for its own profits and losses in the future.

The apartment property project built on the site of the former Highbury Stadium is on Kroenke's list of properties for sale.

Usmanov is even richer and he set up a company specifically to acquire Arsenal.

He promised that after acquiring the Gunners, he would not only provide funds to help Arsenal solve its financial difficulties and take over all of Arsenal's projects and debts, but would also invest money to help Arsenal recruit players.

Especially Arshavin.

"Usmanov from Russia has a soft spot for Arshavin and thinks the Tsar is the most powerful star in the Premier League and should play for Arsenal!"

The Independent believes that Usmanov's promise has further attracted the Arsenal board.

At present, the two sides have basically reached an agreement, and Hill-Wood and other Arsenal board members have decided to sell their shares at a valuation of 5 million pounds.

"But the biggest obstacle at the moment is Kroenke's stake in Arsenal."

"According to sources within Arsenal, Usmanov is negotiating with Kroenke's team through David Dunn, hoping to buy the shares at a reasonable price."

"Kroenke bought Arsenal to make money. As long as Usmanov's offer satisfies him, I believe it will not be difficult to reach an agreement."

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused shock in the entire British football world.

The Gunners were taken over by foreign capital, which means that the top five teams in the Premier League standings this season are not all British.

This seems to have become a signal!
But Manchester City's progress is much faster than Arsenal.

Just after the 33rd round of the Premier League, the Manchester Evening News revealed that Thaksin was transferring his shares in Manchester City Club to a consortium from the Middle East.

At first, everyone thought it was a Middle Eastern businessman named Suleiman Fahim.

But later it was discovered that Suleiman Fahim was just a consulting consultant.

The person who actually took over Manchester City was Mansour from the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, UAE. He has personal assets of at least 170 billion pounds and controls assets of more than 1 trillion US dollars.

As the richest emirate in the UAE, Abu Dhabi also attaches great importance to the acquisition of Manchester City.

This made Manchester City fans almost die of joy.

After Chelsea's overnight rise to wealth and rapid improvement in overall strength, how many Premier League teams don't think so?

Especially Manchester City.

Over the past few years, he has suffered a lot from Manchester United and Ferguson's ridicule.

Now, with the joining of such a wealthy man, Manchester City has transformed itself into the richest club in European football.

The Manchester Evening News revealed that according to sources close to Mansour, the acquisition will be completed before the end of this season, and the Abu Dhabi consortium will take full control of Manchester City and invest funds.

"What is certain is that they will build a world-class training base for Manchester City, just like the Brent training base of the Chinese in Bayswater."

"At the same time, we will invest heavily in the transfer market to recruit players and improve Manchester City's competitiveness."

"Head coach Eriksson, as well as the club's management, will be retained as appropriate."

"As for the summer transfers that all fans are very concerned about, the Abu Dhabi consortium will not set a transfer cap, and all the hot stars in the transfer market will become Manchester City's targets!"

Just this simple sentence has already demonstrated the power and dominance of Manchester City's new boss.

The arrival of the wealthy boss makes the entire Premier League tremble!
……

When Yang Cheng received the news that Manchester City was acquired, his first reaction was that it was earlier than in his previous life.

But the competition in the Premier League is indeed more intense than before.

And the changes are getting bigger and bigger.

"It now seems very likely that Usmanov will take over Arsenal."

Adam Crozier analyzed and judged the situation based on the information he heard.

"This guy is different from the Americans. It is said that he is really willing to spend money on Arsenal."

Usmanov and Abramovich's purpose should be similar, both want to spend money to buy a talisman.

Coincidentally, he is an Arsenal fan.

In this case, it is not surprising that he is willing to spend money on Arsenal.

The real suspense is, how much can he spend?

Another team that gives Yang Cheng a headache is Manchester City.

"From the current perspective, if the Abu Dhabi consortium takes over Manchester City ahead of schedule, Eriksson is likely to stay in the job."

Speaking of which, Eriksen is also unlucky.

The coaching level of this famous Swedish coach is unquestionable. His coaching and integration of the team at Lazio are very much in line with Manchester City's current needs.

His biggest problem is that he was trapped by his experience coaching the England national team.

If he hadn't fallen, Eriksson's situation would be even better than it is now.

You know, Abramovich tried every means to seduce Eriksson.

Given the current situation, it may be difficult for the Abu Dhabi consortium to find a better coach than Eriksen.

Mourinho?

This guy is now fully focused on Barcelona, ​​and considering Chelsea, he should not easily coach Manchester City.

"It's going to be harder and harder to survive in the Premier League!"

Yang Cheng complained with a smile.

In the eyes of Adam Crozier and others, this is not a complaint at all, but more like a desire to try.

It seems that Yang Cheng is not upset because of the strengthening of his competitors. Instead, he becomes very excited.

It’s a bit like the excitement before a master meets another master.

"Will it have any big impact on us?" Adam Crozier asked with concern.

He has always had great trust in Yang Cheng's vision.

"If we look at the team's strength on the pitch, we don't have to worry about anything. With our current squad, we will be the strongest contender for the Premier League and the Champions League in the next few years!"

When Yang Cheng said this, he exuded a strong sense of confidence, which surprised Adam Crozier, Omar Berrada and others, and also deeply moved them.

The most essential thing about a football club is the football on the field.

When Yang Cheng has such confidence and self-confidence, what do they have to fear?

As for whether Yang Cheng would brag?
Don’t you see how brilliant Yang Cheng’s achievements have been in the past few years!

This is definitely a record that even famous coaches like Ferguson and Wenger may not be able to achieve, okay?

Not to mention, Yang Cheng has also trained so many young players for the team.

"In the next few years, we will continue to work hard on youth training, improve our ability to train young players, and at the same time win championships!"

Win the championship by hiding yourself?
Adam Crozier and Omar Berrada were both fresh to the idea.

But when I think about it, it's true.

From the current perspective, the construction volume of this new stadium is getting bigger and bigger.

Everyone supports building a bigger stadium, as 6.5 people is indeed too small.

Especially considering that there really is no room for expansion in the future.

But if we want to build it bigger, Norman Foster said, we have to dig underground, almost to the level of the grandstand.

This means that the workload of the entire project will be greatly increased.

Even the entire design plan needs to be redone.

After all, when digging a level of stands underground, many things have to be adjusted accordingly.

In addition to the four surrounding buildings, there is also a series of advanced technologies that Yang Cheng requested.

According to the most conservative estimate, 10 billion pounds is definitely not enough.

As for to what extent it will exceed the limit, no one knows until it is completed.

However, Yang Cheng also gave them an order not to learn from Arsenal.

What do you mean?
That means not selling the naming rights of the new stadium, the team’s long-term sponsorship contracts, etc. at a low price.

"I would never do such a thing even if I had to sell everything I had!"

Yang Cheng’s righteous words at that time are still ringing in everyone’s ears.

Arsenal's sponsorship and naming contracts with Emirates Airlines were indeed sold at a low price.

Bayswater Chinese's new stadium is located in the heart of London.

Not to mention anything else, just the advertising value, how can Arsenal compare to it?

Therefore, Yang Cheng will never sell it at a low price!

Adam Crozier and others thought that Yang Cheng wanted to support the team's commercial development and would rather endure a hard life than add burden to them, so they were very touched.

But they had no idea that Yang Cheng was certain that the UK would quickly lower its base interest rate.

With loan interest rates so low in the future, only a fool would sell at a low price.

I'm thinking of a way to borrow money from the bank. Isn't that great?
……

On the evening of April 4, the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Bayswater Chinese challenge Barcelona away.

At the pre-match press conference, Yang Cheng insisted in an interview with media reporters that even if the team lost 4-0 at home in the first leg, he and the team would still insist on attacking away from home!

"For us, offense is like a gene flowing in our blood, and we will not change it easily."

But actually?
Of course Yang Cheng did not play very conservatively.

This is a very stupid choice.

He still chose to go head-to-head with Barcelona, ​​but paid more attention to defense.

Therefore, in the 33rd round of the Premier League last weekend, Yang Chengxue hid many main players.

Including Las Diarra, Yaya Toure, Pepe, Maicon and so on.

There is another major benefit for the Bayswater Chinese in this game, that is, Messi still failed to play.

The Argentine didn't even make the squad.

Rijkaard basically used the lineup from the first leg, except that Gabriel Milito was replaced by French center back Thuram at center back.

Thuram is 36 years old and has lost his starting position this season, but in the first leg, Gabriel Milito was obviously beaten by Dzeko.

Just in case, Rijkaard chose Thuram, who has stronger confrontation ability and more experience.

All other positions remain unchanged.

The Chinese team of Bayswater still played with the same lineup as in the first round, and Yang Cheng did not make any substitutions.

After the opening, the Premier League team took the initiative and attacked Barcelona.

In just 2 minutes and 21 seconds, Dzeko took the ball in the frontcourt, turned around and made a straight pass.

Arshavin came from the back row, broke into the right side of the penalty area, and shot, but was saved by goalkeeper Valdes.

Just three minutes later, Di Maria broke into the left side of the penalty area after a through ball from Modric. He fell after being disturbed by Rafa Marcos, but the referee refused to award a penalty.

After that, the Chinese in Bayswater launched a series of offensives.

First, Dzeko dribbled past Thuram and shot, but was saved by Valdes.

Then Modric completed a beautiful one-two with Dzeko, broke into the penalty area and was tripped by Thuram, but the referee still refused to award a penalty and instead gave a free kick from outside the penalty area.

He believed the foul was committed outside the penalty area.

After learning from the experience and lessons, the Chinese in Bayswater persisted in this wave of attack for more than 20 minutes, launching a series of surging attacks, which really put Barcelona at a loss.

It was not until the 26th minute that Barcelona launched a counterattack.

Eto'o made a quick attack on the right, shook off Leighton Baines, and passed the ball back to the right side of the penalty area.

Young player Bojan followed up with a shot, but Neuer bravely caught the ball.

This was Barcelona's first shot of the game.

But the two teams soon started to attack each other back and forth.

This was also Yang Cheng's arrangement.

Facing a team like Barcelona, ​​especially away from home, the fact that they conceded no goals in the first leg at home is the team's greatest confidence.

As long as the Chinese in Bayswater score one goal, Barcelona will be completely defeated.

And in the 39th minute, Dzeko received the ball from the side and sent a cross.

Di Maria made a run from the back row, broke into the left side of the penalty area, and scored with a low left-foot shot.

But the referee blew the whistle and the linesman raised the flag, indicating that Di Maria was offside when he came in from behind.

The entire Camp Nou stadium was filled with boos.

But this time's "break" obviously made Barcelona restrained a lot.

Rijkaard's team can no longer afford to concede goals.

If they concede one more goal, they will have to score at least 1 goals.

Therefore, they began to strengthen the defense in the midfield and backcourt and managed to survive the first half.

Yang Cheng is very confident that Barcelona will be even more desperate in the second half.

The countermeasure Yang Cheng proposed was to attack!
If they score one more goal, Barcelona will be completely desperate!

Of course, if they don’t score any goals, Barcelona will be almost in despair, but they are not dead yet.

At the beginning of the second half, Bayswater Chinese launched another attack.

In just over 2 minutes, Yang Cheng's team played a very beautiful combination on the left.

Di Maria made a straight pass, Dzeko was responsible for pulling away the defensive players in the middle, Arshavin quickly inserted into the back row, successfully got out of the offside position, and received the ball into the left side of the penalty area.

Goalkeeper Valdes decisively left the goal and went out to attack. Halfway through the attack, Arshavin easily lobbed the ball over Valdes and into the unguarded goal.

1 is better than 0!

After scoring the goal, Yang Cheng made a substitution quickly.

Young players such as Gareth Bale and Walcott all came on.

The team began to defend and counterattack.

Use the lightning speed of the two wingers on the left and right to attack Barcelona's defense line.

Losing a goal meant the outcome for Barcelona.

But this is at Camp Nou.

If they lose again and lose ugly, their situation will be even worse.

Therefore, without Rijkaard making any arrangements, the players on the field spontaneously adopted a more prudent tactic, especially focusing on the defense of the two flanks.

Why?

Because Gareth Bale and Walcott were playing at the Camp Nou for the first time and they were extremely excited.

Every time he gets the ball, no matter what, as long as there is space in the frontcourt, he will just dribble forward.

This made the Barcelona players go crazy.

You're already so far ahead, why don't you let go? Are you still attacking?
The most typical example was in the 69th minute, when Walcott received the ball on the right, dribbled all the way, broke into the penalty area, and made a low pass.

Gareth Bale rushed over from the left.

If Puyol hadn't taken the lead and shoveled the ball out of the baseline, disrupting the attack, Gareth Bale's interception from the middle would have scored another goal.

The speed of these two little guys is really too fast!

I can’t even catch up!
But with these two young players in the front, Barcelona did not dare to let go and attack.

So, the game remained in a stalemate throughout the entire game.

In the end, Bayswater Chinese defeated Barcelona 1-0 away from home and 5-0 on aggregate, successfully advancing to the semi-finals.
