"So, what are our goals for the new season?"

"Relegation.￥f"

“Can’t it be a little higher?”

“Easy to relegate.”

...

Dave is a very funny old man, which is different from the club chairman Lin Sen’s past. During the Atletico Madrid period, Cerezo, who was a guide to Lin Sen’s coaching career, was considered an approachable chairman. Although Sans was not old in the Malaga period, he was also considered young and promising. As for Mubarak in the Manchester City period, he was even more of a far-sighted chairman.

However, in the process of dealing with these chairmans, even Mubarak, who is very close to Lin Sen, can still feel the distant sense of distance. But now Dave does not give him this feeling. This funny old man gives Lin Sen the feeling that he is really like an old-fashioned fan. He occasionally makes jokes about meat and vegetables. There are also some common but unrealistic ideas that fans often have. Most importantly, they also have some stubbornness that only some fans have.

So, Lin Sen felt very relaxed when talking to old Dave. It seemed that there was nothing he could not talk about with the old man in front of him except his age. Of course, the reason why he had this different feeling may be related to Lin Sen's different identity.

When talking about the goals of the new season, Lin Sen put his goal in relegation very realistically. On the one hand, it is because he does not put too much pressure on Tang Hua. On the other hand, it is also because with the club's planning and current situation, it is obvious that it is unlikely to count on higher goals. Dreams and expectations are still a bit different. Dreams can be endless, but expectations must be based on reality.

The goal of the new season is not a dream, but an expectation.

Regarding Lin Sen's words, Dave just smiled and joked about why he couldn't set it higher, such as upgrading. He also gave an example of Cambridge United's goal last season was to relegate, but now, Cambridge United is already a Class A team.

In response to this, Lin Sen, who knew that Old Dave was just joking, just smiled and shook his head.

Regarding the future blueprint of Cambridge Union, the tone is undoubtedly determined by Lin Sen, but not everything is Lin Sen's arbitrary. Boya does not interfere with him in this regard, so Lin Sen's main reference object is the old Dave in front of him. It can even be said that in this regard, Lin Sen should attach more importance to old Dave's opinions than Tang Hua.

Lin Sen does not deny that Tang Hua is a genius. Whether under his command or now he has been alone, Tang Hua has given proof of this, but it is always different to be in charge of a club and a team. If it is the latter, even ten old Daves will not be as good as one Tang Hua, but if it is the former, perhaps even ten Tang Huas may not be as good as one old Dave.

Of course, this does not mean that Old Dave is such an excellent chairman, and ability is second. There is only one reason, and no one is more familiar with everything here than Old Dave.

Since acquiring Cambridge United, Lin Sen, who stood behind the scenes, seems to be no different from when he was the head coach before. It seems that he has done everything in detail. But in fact, he has not really appeared many times. Except for the day when the acquisition was officially announced, in the eyes of Cambridge United fans, Lin Sen is still a person who has never seen the head.

In this regard, Lin Sen is very clear about his positioning.

His relationship with Cambridge United is currently in the eyes of Cambridge United fans. The only connection between him and Cambridge United is perhaps the sentence on the official website of Cambridge United: Lin Sen, who belongs to the club - from China, owns 95% of the ownership of Cambridge United Football Club.

On the surface, Linsen holds any position at Cambridge United, which is very similar to Chief Mansour to Manchester City. The difference is that Mansour handed over the Manchester City club to Mubarak, while Linsen intervened more. Of course, this is also because of the different attitudes of the two in this matter. For Mansour, Manchester City is just one of his industries, but for Linsen, this is his energy.

However, although it looks very similar on the surface, Lin Sen actually does not mean to underestimate Dave-Daogen.

He just drew a huge blueprint for Cambridge United, and then, next, everything will be handed over to Dave Daogen and Tang Hua. The former is responsible for the operation of the club outside the stadium, while the latter is responsible for the operation of the stadium. As for the division of authority, Lin Sen will give all the permissions that the two should have in positions.

Then, Lin Sen will watch from the wall.

The past season has been a fantastic season for Colin.

First he came from the amateur league to the B League. Although the latter is actually between professional and non-professional, it is already a leap for a young man who is a wild football player, but the greater surprise is still behind. The team he joined came from behind in the B League and finally soared to the top and came to the A League.

This is already a complete professional football.

Colin never easily reveals his emotions to the outside world, but the moment the team defeated his opponent in the final of the promotion, he was the most excited person on the court, so excited that he didn't even realize it when he hugged George, who had always regarded as his mortal enemy.

This season, as a midfielder, he scored five goals and six assists for Cambridge United.

Such a data is not conspicuous in the second division, but in this team, he is already the core figure of the team. Head coach Tang has clearly told him that he will still be the core of the team next season. Colin believes in Tang's words because it was Tang who brought him from the amateur league to this team.

Until yesterday, Colin was still focused on his mind and believed that he would start his new football career in Cambridge United, yes, until yesterday.

Just yesterday, when he received a call from his father to ask him to go home, then, when he got home, he found a stranger at home.

Colin thought that this stranger was just his father's friend, but just when he nodded politely to the other party, the other party took the initiative to shake hands with him enthusiastically, and then introduced himself that made Colin's heart jump.

His name is Dave Harrison, and he is from Manchester City.

When he heard the name Manchester City, Colin was stunned for a moment, and then used a puzzled look to confirm to the other party whether the name he heard was the club he thought of. He did not dare to believe his ears until the other party smiled and gave a positive answer. Then, Colin was a little at a loss.

Colin's favorite team is Manchester United. Psychologically, Manchester City should be the team he hates the most. In fact, every time he watches the game, he does not hide his disgust towards Manchester City. However, at this time, he found that his feelings for Manchester City may not be as bad as he imagined.

Manchester City is undoubtedly one of the best teams in England and even Europe. And how many young people can refuse the call from Manchester City in the whole of England, no, in Europe?

The favorite team is Manchester United, and such a reason is obviously not enough to be a reason for rejection.

Looking at his son's expression, Colin knew that his son was moved, which made him very happy. Unlike his son, he was a Manchester City fan. Otherwise, how could he give his son a Manchester City legend? In his opinion, Harrison's invitation was a good opportunity to "correct" his son's football belief.

However, just when he thought everything was going well, Little Colin's expression calmed down again, and then the following conversation came.

"Why me?"

"You may not know, but you've been on our observation list for a long time. We think you're very talented, and your performance last season shows that we didn't see anyone wrong."

"My club knows this?"

"No, not yet."

"Why?"

"You should know the reason, Manchester City and Cambridge United have just become affiliated clubs, so..."

“Isn’t this more convenient?”

"It should have been, but you forgot who was the one who acquired Cambridge United."

...

Then, Colin knew that the other party was just talking nonsense.

The man named Dave Harrison in front of him may be a Manchester City scout, but few of his words were true when he answered his own.

The opponent paid attention to himself very early? Where to pay attention? Before coming to Cambridge United, the team Colin played for was just an amateur team. What is an amateur team? Simply put, it is a team that cannot be visited by professional football scouts at all. Since that is the case, how can the opponent's attention start?

Of course, since the other party is here now, no matter why the other party notices him, what’s next?

Of course, Colin knew that Manchester City and Cambridge United were already related clubs, and everyone knew that the reason why Cambridge United was able to "climb" was because Cambridge United's current owner was the former Manchester City King, Lin Sen. So, why did Cambridge United not get benefits from Manchester City in a blink of an eye, but the other party first dug up Cambridge United's people? Colin thought that his mind was much more mature than his peers, but he couldn't understand the various things.

If it is normal, according to Colin's own principles of dealing with things he cannot understand, it is best not to interfere with. However, now, it is difficult for him to convince himself not to interfere.

Like all young people in England who dream of football, when he was a football boy, Colin also went to various football training camps and participated in various football training. Unfortunately, every time, he could only serve as an audience. He heard that a team he had seen on the training ground was attracted by, but as for himself, he never got favored.

Wild ball, that's just an unwilling struggle.

But now, there is an invitation right in front of Colin, from one of the best clubs in the world.
