Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

Of course, saying that Abramovich has found a treasure is just a joke.

As the head of Chelsea and the leader of Premier League gold-dollar football, Abramovich is not short of money.

In 2003, Abramovich acquired Chelsea, which was in debt at the time, and his arrival made this English team enter the ranks of giants.

The funds of the Russian tycoon made Chelsea come alive directly, and the Blues began to wave money in the transfer market to buy a lot.

Makelele, Veron, and Joe Cole joined one after another.

Then in 2005, "Buffalo" Essien transferred to the Blues for a transfer fee of 24.4 million euros!

This price made Essien the highest bidder in English football that year!

To be frank, 24.4 million euros can be said to be a big signing in the 24/25 season!

And you should know that in the summer window of 2020, which was affected by the epidemic, Abramovich did not stop, but continued to throw 200 million into the transfer pool, buying Havertz, Werner, Chilwell and Ziyech for the team.

It can be said that triggering Chen Chen's 30 million liquidated damages is nothing.

However, this has a great impact on Frank.

After all, since he took over Brentford, the high-priced transfer players he has come into contact with are only Ivan Toni at 5.6 million and Mbeumo at 6.5 million.

Frank can't make the decision, so he told Benham about it.

Benham said a long list, but there are two central ideas.

First, don't sell it to Brighton that bastard!

Second, Chen Chen will soon be an international player of the England national team. Making money is secondary. The most important thing is to make him transfer comfortably.

After all, no matter how much money you make from selling people in a transfer window, you can't make as much money as Benham does from running a gambling agency.

It is better to build good relations with all parties for the future.

Frank understood.

He said that he would put all the offer contracts in front of Chen Chen and let him choose.

Benham nodded, and then he said, yes, but not now.

At present, they still have the most important games to play, and they can't let the most stinging hornet in Brentford be distracted!

. . .

After the match with Watford, Brentford's last league game will be in 7 days.

Therefore, the little bee players got two days of rest.

The other players left the base to relax and have fun, only David Raya accompanied Chen Chen to practice on the training ground.

Well, in fact, it was just two single dogs looking for something to do when they were free.

Although David Raya was very painful for missing another clean sheet bonus, fortunately, his few good performances in the game attracted the attention of other teams.

Although Watford only scored one goal, it does not mean that they did not have other shots.

It was also because David Raya was focused enough that the score did not become 6-3, 6-4 or something like that.

However, Brentford also had more shots.

If the Bees had not been too casual in kicking the ball to the back, there might have been a 91 tragedy today!

Stoke City and Coventry City, both in the English Championship, have extended olive branches to David Raya. In addition, Leeds United in the Premier League also made an offer to him.

If he really wants to transfer, David Raya will choose Leeds United in the Premier League. After all, they have no worries about relegation this season, and they will have Premier League games to play next season!

But it should be noted that Leeds United goalkeeper, 20-year-old Frenchman Mellier, is firmly in the starting position at Leeds United.

It seems that Leeds United bought him to replace 33-year-old second goalkeeper Casillas.

So now David Raya is in trouble.

The level of the English Championship team is low, but Stoke City and Coventry City promised to give him a salary increase.

If he goes to Leeds United, he will probably be the second goalkeeper, but if he stays at Brentford, he will probably be the second goalkeeper.

After all, if the team is promoted to the Premier League, it will definitely need to be strengthened in the future. He is not sure that he can still maintain his starting position in the competition.

After being deceived by Chen Chen's 1v1 single-handed attack several times, David Raya sat down breathlessly and waved his hand, indicating that he would not practice anymore.

Chen Chen handed Raya a bottle of water and asked him,

"Is that all?"

David Raya did not answer him, but looked at the sky and asked him,

"Chen, what do you think is the meaning of life?"

"Not far from our training base is the Thames and the Brent River. Go, ask how much sorrow you can have, and a jump will solve all your sorrows."

"Hey! Dude! Listen! I'm here to consult you. I mean, I don't have any good ideas, so I need you to judge for me."

Chen Chen sat down, nodded and looked at him, waiting for the next words.

"Well, it's like this..."

David Raya told Chen Chen about his hesitation.

Chen Chen knew that David RayaDavid Raya's future direction, so he said, "Stay in Brentford, believe me, even if we are promoted to the Premier League, you will be reused by Frank." Raya hesitated, Chen Chen said for him, "You are worried about becoming the second goalkeeper and what to do if we fail to be promoted to the Premier League." "I understand your concerns, I can't explain it to you because it's hard to describe. But I want to say that Brentford's tactics are very suitable for your performance. Modern football relies more and more on the performance of goalkeepers." "Under Frank's 343 formation, you will definitely get a lot of ball possession opportunities and exposure. As long as your performance is good enough, maybe one day, you may be bought directly by the big6 in one step!" "You must have confidence in yourself! You are very strong now! Practice more at Geffen Park, you must be stronger than Ederson, Alisson, and De Gea!" "By the way, which team do you like?" David Raya was a little embarrassed by Chen Chen's praise. Am I really that strong? Raya took a sip of water and replied,

"Like it? I admire Arsenal! Their goalkeeper, the German Leno, has a quick reaction when he gets down to the ground, which is very worth learning from!"

Chen Chen snapped his fingers!

"OK! It's on target!"

"What's on target?"

"Nothing, did you get enough rest? I'll practice free kicks near the sideline."

"No more practice, no more practice! I'm too tired today! What the media said is right, you are a man-eating hornet! Even your teammates are addicted!"

Soon it was May 8.

The 46th round of the 2020/21 Championship finale!

In this round of games, all 24 teams started together.

There is nothing to watch in the promotion play-off area, as the four teams have already been determined.

But the relegation zone is full of highlights.

Let's look at the standings first. Sheffield Wednesday, the last team, has 40 points. Wycombe Wanderers, the second-to-last team, also has 40 points. Rotherham, the third-to-last team, has 41 points. Derby County, the fourth-to-last team, has only 43 points.

Theoretically, Derby County has the possibility of relegation.

However, they will play against Sheffield Wednesday at home in the last round. Regardless of the fighting spirit, Sheffield Wednesday, the last team, should be the easiest opponent in terms of strength.

However, Sheffield Wednesday also has the possibility of relegation. If things go wrong, this "gift package" will hurt Derby County!
