Chapter 373 Manchester United Needs a Right Winger, Barcelona's Second Pursuit of Tang Ye

Manchester Evening News – In addition to Dembele, Chelsea winger Willian is also one of Manchester United's options.

"Compared to Dembele, whose market value exceeds 100 million euros, Manchester United's pursuit of Willian is clearly a more suitable option."

Willian's current estimated value is around 4500 million euros. His excellent dribbling and passing abilities make him a worthy starter for Manchester United.

The problem is that the whole world now knows that Manchester United needs a right winger, which is essential for their pursuit of better results next season.

Taking this factor into account, a price of 4500 million euros is unlikely to be enough to entice Chelsea.

They'll want more!

With the transfer market poised to explode, Ashley Young was at his home in Manchester, where Manchester United players gathered together.

Wow, that's amazing!

"Benzema!"

"Oh, haha!"

Tang Ye covered his head with both hands.

They are watching the Champions League semi-final between Real Madrid and Juventus.

Manchester United lost to Juventus in the quarterfinals, so the players are wondering if they could be a match for the defending champions Real Madrid.

Leaning back on the sofa, Tang Ye took a sip of juice: "Hiss... Actually, I feel Juventus still has quite a few problems. If we practiced set-piece defense beforehand, we might have a better chance."

"I strongly agree with this view."

The younger brother, Rod, immediately sided with his older brother.

"Oh, please, let's not talk about that game."

Ashley Young interrupted Tang Ye and Rodri, who were discussing tactics: "Don't talk about that game anymore, don't talk about that game anymore."

Losing to Juventus in the quarterfinals was a huge blow to Manchester United players.

"Alright, alright, Yang, then I won't talk about this anymore."

Let out a breath and refocus his attention on the ongoing match.

This is Real Madrid's attacking opportunity.

It's Cristiano Ronaldo!
"Holy crap, that ball!"

Tang Ye stood up.

Carvajal's pass was too far back!

Ronaldo began to retreat inside the penalty area.

Jump up with your back to the goal!
boom!
A bicycle kick, and Real Madrid scored.

"Holy crap..."

Touching his head, Tang Ye sat back down in his chair.

Carvajal's pass was a bit off, but surprisingly Real Madrid still managed to score in the end.

Wow, Ronaldo!

Manchester United players erupted in cheers in the living room, while Tang Ye carefully watched the replay provided by the director.

Carvajal had too little time to adjust, so his passes were somewhat off.

Cristiano Ronaldo himself ran into a position to receive the ball!

"Wow, that's a really high jump!"

Tang Ye took another sip of juice to calm his agitated emotions.

"Tom, if you were in that situation, how would you pass the ball?"

Rashford pointed at the television screen.

"Shoot it straight at Ronaldo! Ronaldo's headers are amazing!"

Tang Ye expressed his thoughts: "But I didn't know he could do this..."

In Tang Ye's memory, Ronaldo shouldn't be able to do a bicycle kick.

It can only be said that Tang Ye could deliver a more accurate pass than Carvajal within the same adjustment time.

But if Tang Ye had passed the ball, Ronaldo probably wouldn't have had the chance for a bicycle kick.

De Gea slowly shook his head: "I feel no goalkeeper could have saved that shot."

"Even you can't pounce on him, David?"

"I probably wouldn't have been able to make the save either, the angle was too good."

De Gea explained.

"I think I can be the goalkeeper; I feel I can save this shot."

"You're going to be the goalkeeper?"

De Gea shrugged at Tang Ye: "Are you going to stand in front of the goal as punishment?"

"Hey David, you don't believe me? I used to be a goalkeeper when I was a kid. Our goalkeeper got a red card and then I became the goalkeeper."

"We actually won that game. You probably don't know how cool I look when I save free kicks."

Tang Ye added a sentence.

……

Barcelona.

Regarding Dembele's transfer, Barcelona's management spoke with head coach Valverde.

“Osman is not for sale. He has great talent. He only played less this season because of injury. He will perform very well next season. I can assure you that.”

Valverde's stance is clear.

Ousmane Dembélé will not be put on the transfer market this summer!
"I think you should consider this; it's our chance to break even."

The club manager advised.

Dembele was bought for 1.3 million euros, but he has played like a player worth around 6000 million euros this season. So far, it seems that Barcelona is losing money.

Selling Dembele to Manchester United would be Barcelona's only way to recoup their investment.

"No, no, no, Osman can't be sold. He's talented; I can see that. He just needs a little time."

Are you sure? What would you do if Manchester United offered players in a swap deal?

The supervisor suddenly said.

"Player swap? Haha, even if they let us have Rashford, I wouldn't agree to that transfer. Hmm... Rashford + Rodri might be something to consider."

Valverde remained firm: "That's just how it is, Osman cannot be sold, and I will not agree to his transfer."

"Um……"

The manager suddenly looked up into Valverde's eyes: "My idea is... let's see if we can use Dembele to try and win over Tom."

But then again...

Valverde chuckled: "I'll go tell Osman to pack his bags."

"Besides Ousman, do we have any additional conditions? We could add Busquets, then they'd fill the midfield gap. Dembele plus Busquets, Kuhn, what do you think?"

"If Tom transfers, Coutinho might not have a place in the team. We could trade Coutinho and Osman for Tom, but Manchester United would have to add some money. You know, Coutinho is also very talented."

Valverde suddenly became agitated for some reason.

"Please sit down, please sit down. We will discuss this with Manchester United."

If it's Dembele + Busquets, then Barcelona would totally agree.

But Manchester United would definitely not agree to that.

But if it's Coutinho + Dembele...

Two players worth 1.3 million euros each, totaling 2.6 million euros, would be a huge loss for Barcelona even if the trade target is Donny.

Of course, there's another reason: it's impossible to successfully trade Coutinho and Dembele for Tang Ye.

Coutinho previously played for Liverpool, which means he would face criticism from fans if he transferred to Manchester United.

I don't know what to do...

……

Marca, Issue 14 – Manchester United are interested in Barcelona's talented winger Ousmane Dembélé, but Barcelona have stated that Dembélé is not for sale.

Marca, Issue 15 – Barcelona are hoping to make a player swap with Manchester United, and they are open to a transfer for Dembele.

"Barcelona have stated they are keen to bring Dembele to Manchester United to showcase his talent, but only if United include Tom in the deal. If United are willing to trade Tom, Barcelona are willing to offer De Jong as a free gift."

Barcelona is really persistent!

Why not just add some money last season? Why wait until Tang Ye makes a name for himself at Manchester United before buying him? And they even wanted to trade Dembele for him!

Manchester United fans are not worried at all; the probability of Dembele being replaced by Ten Hag is higher than the probability of Dembele being replaced by Tang Ye.

[Brothers, I have a suggestion: trade Messi for him.]

Wow, this is really good!

The schedule is gradually clearing up, but the Manchester United coaching staff is still very busy these days.

With the transfer window about to open, Ten Hag needs to find new players for Manchester United!

Ten Hag is actually quite helpless. Currently, there are only left wingers in the football world, and Manchester United just happens to have one.

They want to buy a right winger, but other teams are unwilling to sell.

After looking at it from all angles, Dembele does indeed have the best talent, but his training attitude is a bit problematic.

As for training attitude...

Ten Hag believed that since he could even modify Tang Ye, controlling a mere Dembele would naturally be no problem.

"Michelle!"

He called out to Van der Gaël, who was reading the newspaper: "Bring Greenwood to the first team for training!"

"Mason? What about the U18 matches?"

"Whether he trains with the first team or plays in the U18 team, I need to see how he performs."

Ten Hag will not give up looking for other suitable right wingers, and Greenwood is his defensive option.

If Manchester United fail to sign a suitable right winger in the summer transfer window, then they will really have no choice but to try out 17-year-old Greenwood.

……

During training, Ten Hag further optimized Manchester United's set-piece defense.

Tang Ye's role in Manchester United's set-piece defensive system is not significant, so during set-piece training sessions, Tang Ye would lead Lingard in passing practice.

When training with Tang Ye, Lin Jiade was very proactive and even took the initiative to get water for Tang Ye.

Lingard seems to want to be Tom's underling.

However, the matter of having a senior brother and a junior brother must be handled with caution.

Tang Ye still needs to consider whether or not to make Lingard his subordinate.

"Jesse, you should have started observing the ball before you received it. It's too late to observe it after you get it."

"You need to think about what your teammates up front will do. If it's a through ball to Mata, you can't give him too much space, but when you're passing a through ball to Marcus, you can give him a little more space."

Tang Ye and Lingard shared their football experiences.

He doesn't usually teach others, but if it's a friend, there's no harm in teaching them.

Different teammates have different characteristics, and Tom hopes that his protégé Lingard can understand this principle.

Snapped!

Happily grinding through his skill points, Tang Ye felt a warm sensation in his feet. Hiss—

This is a sign that your attributes are about to level up!
With the season almost over, is his passing attribute finally about to break the 90 mark?

……

London Football – Arsenal face Manchester United in a crucial battle for a top-four finish. Can the Gunners secure all three points?
The Premier League Round 36 match between Manchester United and Arsenal is very important for Arsenal, who are fighting for a top-four finish.

The same applies to Manchester United.

The situation with Manchester City is still unclear, so Manchester United needs to seize every opportunity.

"China Media Group! This is a live broadcast for you..."

"The referee is checking his watch!"

"The match begins. Now, let me introduce the starting players for both sides."

"...Then comes the away team, Arsenal!"

Arsenal (4-2-3-1)

Goalkeepers: Ospina, Chambers, Mavropanos, Bellerin
Midfielders: Xhaka, Nelson, Niles
Forwards: Iwobi, Aubameyang, Mkhitaryan

Head Coach: Arsène Wenger
Both sides were playing a 4-2-3-1 formation, but it remains to be seen whether Wenger has made any improvements to Arsenal's tactics after the team's losses in the first half of the season.

Shortly after the match began, the camera focused on the home team's stands, where many Manchester United fans were holding up signs.

[Tennhav, don't sell Tom!]

Manchester United can do without Dembele, but they can't do without Tom!

"The Manchester United fans at the stadium seemed to be trying to get manager Erik ten Hag's attention."

"Yes, the season is almost over, and Manchester United has started looking for new signings, with the right winger position being the most closely watched. Barcelona has proposed to exchange Dembele for Tang Ye. Coach Zhan, do you think this deal is possible?"

The question was posed to Zhan Jun.

"Hiss... to be honest, that's unlikely."

"Tang Ye's impact on Manchester United was phenomenal. His technical characteristics are very unique. You couldn't bring any other player to Manchester United, not even Messi or Ronaldo. Neither Messi nor Ronaldo could have brought such a significant overall improvement to the team."

"Unless Barcelona includes one or two key players in the deal, I'm not optimistic about this transfer."

In the studio, Zhan Jun shared his thoughts on the Dembele trade.

What Manchester United needs right now is a top-class playmaker in midfield to control the entire game.

There are very few players in today's football world who can produce this kind of performance; at least in the Premier League, there are only two such players.

1. Tang Ye's original profession.

2. De Bruyne.

Therefore, unless it's a combination of Dembele and De Bruyne, the chances of other clubs signing Tang Ye are almost nonexistent.

However, Dembele and De Bruyne are not from the same team, so they cannot be bundled together in a trade.

Fans were discussing Manchester United's summer transfer window when Manchester United launched their attack.

A backheel flick on the right flank created a connection between Tang Ye and Mata.

Mata dribbles down the wing!

Tang Ye ran towards the top of the arc!
hiss--

It seemed too late to rush towards the top of the arc, so Tang Ye changed his strategy, sending Rodri to the top of the arc while he followed Mata down to the byline.

When faced with a defense, Mata stopped and passed the ball to Tang Ye, who was running behind him!
Okay, now is the time for GGBond to bottom out!
"Let's go!"

Urging his teammates to move forward, Tang Ye prepared himself.

Snapped!
The cross pass goes directly to Haller in the middle!
Break down the door!

Just a little too far off, Ospina caught the ball before Haller could reach it.

"Depend on!"

It was a bit of a pity, Tang Ye said, shaking his hand.

"Go Tom!"

"Don't go to Barcelona, ​​Tom!"

The shouts of fans came from the stands, and Tang Ye began to retreat quickly.

28th minute!

It's still Manchester United's chance!

"Come!"

Reaching out to Herrera for the ball, Tang Ye took it and decisively began to advance forward.

boom!
A through ball straight to Haller at the front!
Haller received the ball at the edge of the penalty area and was quickly pressed by Arsenal defenders.

Pass the ball to Rashford on the left!

Rashford, control the ball first!
He's waiting for his teammates to provide support!

Tang Ye is on his way!
"Keep an eye on them! Keep an eye on them!"

Wenger's voice came, and Xhaka quickly moved towards Tang Ye's position.

We absolutely cannot give Tom the opportunity to receive the ball near the top of the arc.

Otherwise, Arsenal's goal will be in trouble!
With a hand gesture, Rodri behind Tang Ye began to move forward.

Snapped!
Rashford passed the ball back to him.

Give it to Rodri!
Look at Rodri!

boom!
Rodri passed the ball to Tang Ye.

It's Tom's favorite through ball!

Run forward and grab the ball.

To shake off Xhaka, Tang Ye stopped the ball in place, turned around, and then passed it to Valencia, who was running up behind him.

Valencia to Mata!
Turning his head to glance at the penalty area, Tang Ye made a judgment in an instant.

This is a great opportunity!

Without any hesitation, Tang Ye made a cross-cutting run with Mata and finally received Mata's pass near the baseline.

"Still on the right baseline, let's see how Tang Ye handles this ball!"

"Pass it across the box directly!"

"Alai!"

boom!
The second online meeting of the God believers group!

The connection was successful!

1: 0!

Manchester United are in the lead!

"Roar!!!!"

Ale roared in the penalty area, and Tang Ye ran over and jumped on him.

"Sebastian!"

You have gained 10 comeback points.

[Financial Management Progress: Assistance (1/5)]

With his assist against Arsenal, Tang Ye took his first step toward the legendary chest.

"United!"

"Man United!"

Fans in the stands held up signs with Tang Ye's name on them.

TOM!

This is Tang Ye's name!
Great Tom!

"Don't go to Barcelona! Don't go to Barcelona!"

As I slowly walked back to my half, I could hear the voices of the fans around me.

Rashford put his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder and whispered, "The fans are under a lot of pressure right now."

"No! Why should we be under so much pressure? We're in the lead now."

Tang Ye pointed to the score on the big screen: "It's 1-0 now, and I have a feeling we'll be 2-0 soon."

"Haha, they're worried you'll go to Barcelona."

Rashford pointed to the signs held up by fans in the stands.

Although Tang Ye's move to Barcelona is a low-probability event, the news has caused many Manchester United fans to panic.

How could the best Tom go to Barcelona!
"Oh, they don't need to worry."

Tang Yechao gave a thumbs-up from the stands.

Manchester United fans don't want him to leave the club, which is making Tang Ye a little agitated.

Because he sensed the fans' reliance on him!
Just like how he relies on his friends on the team!
"Arsenal's situation in the standings is somewhat precarious right now, and they need to find a way to get points from Manchester United in this match."

"Yes, judging from the current situation on the field, Arsenal still has a certain chance."

The reason why CCTV commentators said Arsenal had a chance was mainly because Arsenal had a certain advantage in possession.

The camera focused on Wenger on the sidelines; the Arsenal manager had a serious expression.

Having possession alone is useless.

Arsenal need to find attacking opportunities!

boom!
Ospina launched a long ball from the backfield!
"Oh!"

Bailly burst out of the penalty area.

boom!
Bailly headed the ball back, deflecting Ospina's long kick.

It looks painful!
Tang Ye quickly retreated, positioning himself in front of Xhaka to try and steal the ball.

"Please help me! Please help me!"

Seeing that he was about to be defeated, Tang Ye quickly called his underling Luo De to come and help him.

After a series of passes between the two players, the Manchester United player ultimately regained possession of the ball.

Counterattack! Counterattack!

Rodri passes the ball to Tang Ye!
The strongest player in Manchester United!
Seeing that Tang Ye had the ball, Rashford made a forward run without hesitation.

Tang Ye!

boom!
As Tang Ye extended his right foot, his left foot slipped, and he suddenly fell to the ground.

The strongest person!
The strongest person has fallen!
"..."

After rolling half a circle to his feet, Tang Ye patted the water stains off his bottom.

"Fuck!"

hiss--

Ten Hag, on the bench, suddenly went black.

Tang Ye's passing still requires a lot of balance.

On a rainy day like today, maintaining a good balance in your body is not an easy task.

……

Halftime report: Manchester United 1-0 Arsenal, with Tang Ye providing an assist and tripping over his feet.

PS: There will be 3 updates intermittently over the next few days. I will be going to Hangzhou at the end of the month, so the bonus chapter for monthly tickets may be released earlier.
