Chapter 10 The Pit
It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married.
Pere couldn't figure out whether Lin Sen's words were true or false, or how true or false, but Lin Sen was already very sure of one thing, that is, Suarez, who already had the idea of leaving.
As the saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet, but this sentence is extremely appropriate in football. When a player wants to leave, the final outcome of forced staying is basically a loss-win situation.
Linson handled David Sylva’s affairs in the past few years, and Linson had been smooth enough. Both sides had never even said it to the outside world. But even so, although David Sylva’s performance in the second season cannot be said to be intentionally slacking off, but without that point of concentration, his condition was still not as good as his first season as he joined.
Suarez wants to leave, which may be news for Manchester City fans, but it is not news for Linsen. As early as after Linsen left Manchester City, Suarez had clearly stated that he would not rule out the possibility of taking risks in other leagues, and even clearly mentioned the name of Barcelona.
Now, Barcelona is asking for Suarez and killing Linson, but he doesn't believe that Pere and Barcelona have maintained a pure relationship from beginning to end in this matter.
It's hard to say that since last season, Perre has been preparing for now.
Since that's the case, Lin Sen doesn't need to force Suarez. Of course, he can do David Sylva's affairs again, but don't say that he is no longer the head coach, even if so, what's the point?
Of course, Lin Sen had to call Perre, and there was no concealment, because no matter what, he would not and could not give the other party any excuse to turn the transfer responsibility on the club.
Besides, when he answered Lin Sen's words impossible, rather than resolutely not, Lin Sen has actually got an answer, that is, Suarez is not really as indispensable in Pellegrini's heart as he thought.
That being the case. Sanchez and Fabregas, why not? No one in the world knows the trajectory of these two players better than Linson.
After processing the quote from Barcelona, Lin Sen turned his attention to another name.
Mangala.
This is the club's chief scout Gary Worthington recommended central defender candidate.
Pellegrini wants a new central defender, which is the clearest position the head coach wants to strengthen at present. Of course, the club cannot neglect it. If you are anxious about transferring, you can't eat hot tofu. You must do it slowly. If you transfer, you need to be quick, accurate and ruthless.
Lin Sen has a lot of names for this position, but Pellegrini currently has the positioning of this candidate: a rotation player who can compete for the main players.
Just like the team's positioning when introducing Nastasic.
Therefore, Lin Sen could only look at the little beets that had just begun to emerge. Mangala, who came from Porto, the No. 1 black store in Europe, entered Manchester City's sight.
Linsen had no impression of Mangala. When Mangala was still in Liege, Linsen's Manchester City even "on-site inspection" the opponent, but Mangala was not playing as a central defender at that time. Of course, it is undeniable that as a central defender, Mangala handed over data in Porto that attracted many European giants' attention.
Unfortunately, Lin Sen knew very well what the ending would be for Mangala to come to Manchester City.
Not all things that seem delicious are delicious, especially things produced in black stores. In my memory, Mangala, who came to Manchester City with the most expensive defender in the Premier League, has a net worth of 32 million pounds. However, he has never given a performance in Manchester City that suits his value.
So. Even though I knew it was a pit, how could Lin Sen jump?
However, Linson could not just ignore Gary Worthington's recommendation.
As the manager in charge of the transfer, Lin Sen needs to deal with more personnel relationships than when he was a head coach, but his importance is not lower than when he was a head coach. In addition to acting as a communication bridge between the club and the head coach, the relationship with the club scout is also extremely important. For a simple metaphor, scouts are equivalent to players to the head coach for football managers.
As the main person in charge of Manchester City scouts, Gary Worthington used five stars in his scout report to Linson, which is almost the best evaluation of a scout for his target.
It should be explained that star ratings are not just something fabricated in football games, but are also widely used in reality, especially for scouts who are themselves to evaluate players' abilities and potential.
Star rating recommendations: Generally, five stars are full. In other words, players who get five stars ratings cannot be said to have to sign, but it can also be seen how optimistic Gary Worthington is about this player.
It is OK to reject other people's achievements, but at least a reason must be given. But now Lin Sen can't say that he knew that Mangala was a parallel product before he knew, so Lin Sen simply did not explain and asked for the price directly.
After all, buying is one thing, and whether or not buying is another thing. When talking about transfers with Porto, the most lacking thing is always money, and the most lacking thing is always disagreement.

June 28th.
The Brazil World Cup group stage has all ended, and the top 16 will be decided, and some are happy and some are sad.
For many English fans, they are afraid that their World Cup has ended, because the English team, which is more in love with the sky, has a life of thinner than paper again, and this time it is even more miserable than the last time. They draw and lose in three group matches, and are eliminated at the bottom of the group.
The poor results made the England team returning to the UK even unanswered. For a moment, Hodgson's coaching position was in danger. At this time, the Sun broke out a news: The FA is considering changing coaches, and one of the main goals is Lin Sen, who has just become Manchester City football director.
As soon as this news came out, many fans who were familiar with the habits of The Sun were laughing.
All those who are familiar with English football know that the English, who claim to be the ancestor of modern football, have looked down on outsiders, whether they are players or coaches, from Erikson to Capello, this has been proven.
Lin Sen is of course the hottest head coach in Europe in the past few years, and his success in the Premier League has won him recognition from many English fans. But you should know that the Premier League has never lacked foreign coaches, and in the history of the English national team, there have only been two foreign coaches.
Now, letting an Eastern Confucian man take charge of England? This is still unimaginable for many people.
Sure enough, the news from the Sun only came out for less than a day, and the FA quickly clarified that the current head coach Hodgson will continue to coach England until the 2016 European Championship qualifying stage.
At this point, a gossip news ended quietly before it even appeared. Just like the impression given by the Sun, it only pursues explosiveness, but in the end it is just eye-catching rumor.
However, is this really gossip?
At least Mubarak knew that things were not as simple as the outside world thought.
"I'm really afraid that you would accept it at that time." Mubarak said half-jokingly while calling Linsen.
Some things are all about wind and waves. Manchester City club did receive faxes from the FA, and the content was to ask Lin Sen if he was interested in taking charge of England.
It is conceivable that Mubarak was depressed when he received this unexpected fax, because it was almost an invitation to "loopholes" in Manchester City's contract with Linsen. If Linsen intends to accept it, then Manchester City has almost no reason to block it.
Moreover, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be a very tempting invitation.
"If their invitation was before you," Lin Sen smiled.
Linsen did not lie about this. If England had asked for an invitation earlier than Mubarak, then perhaps Linsen might have accepted it.
"Are you sure?" Mubarak said, "that's not an easy job."
"Didn't it mean that the English head coach's rights in England are second only to the Prime Minister?" Lin Sen smiled.
"That's just for their own people." Mubarak sneered.
Mubarak has been experiencing the anthelminbi of the English since he came to Manchester City, and every time he thought he was about to forget, there was always someone or something that could remind him again.
Lin Sen smiled and agreed.
"By the way, I received a call in the morning." Suddenly, Mubarak said, "Do you know who it comes from?"
"Huh?" Mubarak's tone made Lin Sen feel a little bad, but he did not guess, but asked quietly, "Who?"
"Florentino."
----------------
If Manchester City was the most glorious team in Europe the previous year, then the most proud team in Europe last year would be Real Madrid.
After Florentino returned to Real Madrid, Real Madrid, which has been following a superstar policy for several consecutive seasons, finally came to a harvest season. Under the leadership of Italian coach Ancelotti, they not only defeated their rival Barcelona in the Copa del Rey in China, but also won the tenth Champions League championship with special significance in their club history.
In Florentino's words, the tenth Champions League is a relief for Real Madrid fans, but for him, this Champions League is enough to make him feel relieved, because this is the champion of the team, and isn't it his "political achievements"?
But is this the end? No, because Florentino also said another sentence: Now, every Real Madrid is starting to discuss the eleventh.
Winning a Champions League just tied Florentino's first time in Real Madrid, and the second time, he wanted more than that.
So, as Lin Sen thought before, Real Madrid will continue.
At this time, what did Florentino call Mubarak do?
Apart from Bell, Lin Sen couldn't imagine any other topics. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
