Chapter 282 The Spring of Juan Mata
In the morning, it's sunny!
When the warm sun poured in from the large floor-to-ceiling window, the golden columns of light after being overcauated by the glass brought a slight scorching heat, basking on the buttocks of a stuffy man who was sleeping... Well, it's so hot!
Li Tongfan stretched out his hand and pulled the quilt, trying to cover his "delicate" buttocks and continue to sleep. Unexpectedly... hiss~~ A burst of soreness came from his limbs, and the little sleepiness suddenly disappeared!
Old Li turned over from the soft big **, moved his arms, and looked at the blue sky and waves connecting to the distant sky. The white seagulls rang and drew wonderful notes between the vast sea and sky... A comfortable morning!
Get up and come to the bedside, open the glass, and a cold sea breeze blows in with a salty smell. Li Tongfan remembered the crazy scene last night - last night!
When the team's bus came to the highway exit on the outskirts of Newcastle, the players were surprised to find that the large parking lot of the highway gas station next to it was full of dense vehicles and crowds!
It's still raining!
Seeing the bus with the logo of Newcastle Club slowly coming, the silent crowd suddenly burst into warm cheers, like the spring thunder in early March, touching!
It turned out that Newcastle fans were waiting here for the return of the city hero!
It's about two o'clock in the morning, but the cold night rain can't stop the enthusiasm of Newcastle fans, so that in the face of the crowd of supporters, the team had to temporarily decide to hold a unique fan meeting in the lobby of the gas station!
Flowers, beer, applause, champagne... All the essential things to celebrate the victory of the game have long been prepared by crazy fans, and the loud and passionate cheers can almost overturn the roof of the gas station hall... Although it is only a league victory, it has won a crazy one than celebrating the league championship. A warm event!
However, Newcastleians don't think it's too much!
Because the madman Li maintained the dignity of the magpie with a hearty victory!
Before the game, they almost watched the whole broadcast with their hands together with the most pious prayer posture!
You know, Newcastle's poor record for most of the season has made every fan sleepless all night. What people are most worried about is that if the invincible madman Li can't win, then Newcastle is really hopeless... Fortunately, the man who came from the myth and legend did not let Newcastle I'm disappointed!
So, there is a reason to be excited!
There is a reason to be crazy!
And the enthusiasm of the fans has obviously infected the Newcastle stars. Although they have tried their best in the game and are very sleepy at this moment, every hammer is intoxicated by the exaggerated pursuit of the fans - "Hey, Michael, you are really our angel... Haha, it's unbelievable. Happy Big Four!! If I had a daughter, I would let her marry you..." The white old man patted Owen on the shoulder excitedly, as if he were really looking at his son-in-law!
The unrestrained beauty lifted her coat and revealed her pink underwear: "Hey, Alan, look here, please sign for me here. You are really ** on the court..."
"Uncle Emre, I want to know why you can let the football dance on your knees?" The blonde Xiao Zhengtai in the trumpet magpie uniform blinked her big blue eyes and asked the Turks with admiration!
...In front of the window, the sea breeze is blowing slowly!
Li Tongfan stretched four activities. Because he was caught in the rain last night, he even sang and danced with the fans in the lobby of the gas station... It's so crazy that it hurts all over today!
However, the pain is on the body, but the heart is extremely happy!
In the first game after coaching the "defeated division" Newcastle, I met the strong enemy Tottenham Hotspur, and the preparation time was less than three days, so that even after the modification, the abilities of the players in reality have not completely increased to the limit... Therefore, yesterday's Battle of White Deer Lane for the old Li said it was actually a big challenge!
Fortunately, Li Tongfan survived!
The opponents in the next few games are all weak teams, and Lao Li has enough time to improve the team according to his own ideas! Waiting for the league to play against a strong team such as Liverpool and Manchester United at the end of the league, there will be greater certainty!
So now, it's time to plan for the team's lineup in advance!
Thinking of this, Li Tongfan took out the Hummer GO0-BOOK, launched FM2008 to be loaded into the archive, and began to study Newcastle's existing lineup!
Forward!
There are already Michael Owen, Ameibi, Viduka, and although Nicholas Bentner is on loan from Arsenal Arsenal, he will go back after the season, but it is more than enough to survive the 07-08 season!
So there is no need to impress the front line!
Of course, if there are high-potential little demon children to buy one or two, it is a good choice to make a long-term investment!
In the midfield!
Alan Smith, Emley, James Milner and Duff are all good, but the orthodox winger is only Duff, and the Irish system is not very good, and he is often injured. Lao Li doesn't want to waste his character points on 28-year-old Duff. He must find one or two first-class edges. Feng!
Fortunately, such a candidate has already had one in Li's heart!
Back waist position!
Although Joey Patton is strong, his brain-damaged performance in White Deer Lane last night was that it was difficult to vote for him with all the trust votes. Once the red card is banned, Lao Li will have to face the end of not being able to stand up, so he must prepare in advance!
A potential substitute back is indispensable!
As for the defender line, Steven Taylor is naturally impeccable, but everyone else has to change!
In yesterday's game, if it hadn't been for the low-level mistake of Czech central defender David Lozehar, the "souzy brother" Berbatov would not have easily found such a good shooting opportunity in Newcastle's penalty area!
You must find a qualified partner for Taylor as soon as possible!
As for the full-backs, the existing Jose Enrique and Charles Enzobia are barely enough to support until the end of the season!
But if we have to deal with more tough games next season, the two will still be eliminated!
Therefore, although the substitute candidate is not in a hurry, it is better to prepare early!
Goalkeeper Ji Wen is reassuring!
Unfortunately, another 32-year-old substitute goalkeeper, Steve Harper, is a little unsatisfactory!
For a head coach like Li Tongfan with severe pedophilia, a goalkeeper with ultra-high potential is indispensable!
... After carefully looking at the computer screen and making an evaluation of Newcastle's existing lineup in the FM2008 system, Li Tongfan opened the FM2008 scouting tool and began to find players suitable for his needs according to the expected search criteria!
[Potential Ability]!
[Current ability]!
[Team listing price]!
[Player's personal wishes]!
The above four points are the key to using scouting tools to search!
So, every time he finds the right candidate in the scouting tool, Li Tongfan will enter the FM2008 system and arrange Newcastle's electronic scout to inspect the player!
In this way, you can know whether people are willing to come to Newcastle's three acres of land through the electronic ball report!
One... two... three... Exactly four hours later, Li Tongfan finally breathed a long sigh of relief and closed the notebook that had recorded four or five pages of information with satisfaction!
Finish the work!
The names of the subtitles on the notebook will be Li Tongfan's capital to dominate the world in the next few seasons!
Some of these players are still unknown, some are a little famous, some are at the lowest point of their lives, and some have just embarked on their own football careers... And what Li Tongfan has to do is to do everything possible to get them in their bags and lead them to the golden peak of world football!
Of course, in addition to the new little demons found in the FM2008 scouting tool, the little demons who "cheated" into the [Flashing Red Star] brokerage company last year have also reached the "harvest" season!
After a year of development, if the demons signed by [Flash Red Star] have the ability to have outstanding talents, they must let him come to Newcastle if conditions permit and the players are personally willing!
At least it's "my own people", don't use it for nothing!
Grumbling ~~~~ At this time, the stuffy man's stomach rang unsuffocatedly!
Lao Li just realized that he and uncle, I haven't had breakfast today... He turned his head and looked at the alarm clock on the wall. The time passed so fast that it was past eleven o'clock at noon!
The team is on holiday today!
The canteen of Newcastle's Reeperton Training Base is closed!
Alas, Lao Li, a shameless bachelor, has to go out and make do with it!
Before going out, I gave Tolose Tang Fei a phone call and discussed the itinerary for the second half of the day. Li Tongfan quickly found a place to eat and drink to fill his stomach!
Because after dinner, Li Tongfan and his "dog-headed sgt" will go to Manchester to pick up a person back in person!
A person who has been struggling in despair for a long time!
... Carrington Training Base - the place where the world-famous Red Devil superstars often train!
Today is the first day after the game, so Manchester United's first team got a vacation because the game just ended yesterday!
Therefore, the lively Wellington training base seems a little empty! Without the big stars of the first team, Manchester fans will not come here to watch the training!
In such a large base, only the reserve team and U18 young players carry out boring daily training under the guidance of the coach!
Bang bang bang~~~~ The sound of the football shooting into the net or the goalpost keeps coming from the base!
In the base, all the players who are lucky enough to wear the Red Devil's robes are working hard to sweat silently for their future!
Among the many players in Manchester United's reserve team, there is one person who has always made Li Tongfan feel a little guilty all the time!
He is running to the Wellington training base with the despair in his heart, sweating silently!
Spanish young player Juan Mata!
A little guy who seems to have been abandoned by fate!
19-year-old Juan Mata feels that his fate in this year is simply a long satire with strong black humor!
Yes, irony!
A year ago, he was still calling for the wind and rain at the most sacred Real Madrid Bernabeu Stadium in European football. He was still enjoying the reputation of the top ten supernova in European football in 2007, the tide of media praise and the deafening cheers of Galactic Battleship fans... That taste is so wonderful!
However, everything has changed after a year!
In rainy and humid England, he quickly became one of the top ten scolded by everyone in the history of Manchester United. He was like an abandoned concubine who was beaten into the cold palace and did not come out, waiting for a poor chance to play in Old Trafford... And even if he got the opportunity to meet him. But it's the harsh boos of the picky Red Devils fans!
I'm 19 years old!
For an ambitious professional football player, how many 19-year-olds can they squander? If it goes on like this, it will be buried in the training ground sooner or later!
... After receiving a casual pass from a teammate, Juan Mata shot directly from more than 30 meters away from the goal!
Oh!
The football is like a plane that has finally lost gravity. It crosses the goal high and hits the most red and weakly on the wire guardrail in the distance!
This shot, just like his development in the past year, is frustrating and desperate!
Just now... "...Hey, Juan, come here. Mr. Gene is looking for you!" Reserve leader Leletus greeted Mata loudly on the sidelines!
Gene?
Juan-Mata was stunned!
Gene is the director of the Manchester United Club in charge of the transfer contract. How could he come to him?
Are there any clubs interested in themselves?
Or did the club finally decide to end the contract and give up on itself?
Juan Mata is a little numb!
is also good!
Anyway, no matter where you go, as long as you can get out of the sad place of Manchester as soon as possible, it is a good thing for Juan Mata!
...20 minutes later!
Manchester United's transfer director Gene's office!
Juan Mata looked at the contract in front of him and Li Tongfan's smiling face on the opposite sofa, and couldn't believe it!
Happiness comes so suddenly!
The contract is clearly written in black and white: Newcastle is willing to obtain the right to use Juan Mata on a short-term loan in the next three months, and half of Mata's weekly salary will be paid by the magpie... If Juan Mata's performance at the end of the season can win the recognition of Newcastle Club, then Magpie is willing to buy it out for 2 million pounds!
This is a short-term rental contract!
According to the regulations of the Premier League, after the transfer market is closed, the team can get players by starting a loan contract to solve its shortage of staff!
Mata did not hesitate to sign his name on the contract!
Whether it's Newcastle or any other team, even if it's the second and third division of England... As long as it's a player coached by crazy Lee, Juan Mata is willing to join!
This is a blind worship!
"... Arrange your own itinerary and come to Newcastle's Reeburton two days later to report..." Li Tongfan stood up and patted Juan Mata's excited shoulder: "If you are in good shape, maybe you can catch up with the team's next round of the game against Fulham!"
This sentence is almost to assure Juan Mata that as long as you come to my territory, you will definitely be the main player!
Manchester United's transfer director Gene and reserve director Leletes looked at each other and smiled! Buy such a player to play the main force in Newcastle?
Crazy Li is really dizzy!
But well, Manchester United can finally get rid of this burden! Although the transfer fee of 10 million pounds has been wasted, Manchester United can save half of the salary expenditure of up to 40,000 pounds a week! The only thing they worry about is that in case Juan Mata does not perform well in Newcastle and is not bought out by Magpie, the transfer fee of 2 million pounds will be gone!
In the office, Juan Mata was not in the mood to observe the relieved expressions of Gene and Leister!
"Teacher" Li Tongfan's palm on his shoulder came with bursts of warmth, and the sun outside the window suddenly cleared up a lot!
This is an unforgettable afternoon!
2008 is about to enter April, and spring is coming!
