Chapter 822 This is going to go against the will of heaven!

"It's official, it's official!"

In the largest Manchester United fan group on WeChat, someone suddenly shouted loudly.

This shout immediately made the group boil.

"What's the official announcement?"

"Yeah, can you explain it more clearly?"

"Could it be that our league, which has been raising prices for a century, has finally turned things around and succeeded in recruiting players?"

"How is this possible? You underestimate us, Sandezi!"

"That's right. Our Sandezi has professional ethics. He has been focusing on raising the price for more than 40 years. Can he do such a thing as successfully recruiting players?"

"That's right, didn't San Dezi say it before? We have to lift at least a hundred more people this summer!"

"Uh, please, can you stop insulting Sandezi like that? He clearly said he was going to assess a hundred players, okay?"

"Hehehe, same meaning, same meaning!"

The group suddenly became noisy and lively.

"Hey, why don't you tell me quickly, what has the official announcement been made?"

"Oh, I'm talking about the official ones, not Manchester United, but Southampton and Real Madrid!"

"What do you mean?"

"Yeah, what does it have to do with these two teams?"

"Could it be... Oh my god, let's set off firecrackers to celebrate, Rooney finally got rid of it!"

"Wow, is this true? Did we finally sell Rooney?"

"We must celebrate, we can't not celebrate!"

"This is simply the most exciting transfer this summer!"

The person who first shouted for the official announcement sent a WeChat emoticon of Rooney's waterfall of sweat.

He must have felt that Mr. Lu was shot even when he was lying down.

But it is not difficult to see from this that Manchester United fans have resentment towards Rooney.

"Please, can you guys just listen to me?"

"Okay, okay, go ahead and talk, everyone be quiet!"

"Yes, everyone be quiet, and speak quickly."

"Southampton and Real Madrid officials announced at the same time that Real Madrid will introduce Croatian midfielder Modric from Southampton in exchange for cash and Di Maria. The specific amount of additional cash is kept secret by Real Madrid for the time being."

"What?"

"Di Maria went to Southampton?"

"Oh my god, I knew it, I knew it, Sander is too professional, he was so focused on raising the price that he forgot about recruiting players. We chased Di Maria for a whole summer, but he used Modric as a bonus for the transfer."

"San Dezi, ah San Dezi, it's not easy to say I love you!"

"We have reached the pinnacle of bidding, raising the price without being seen. If we hadn't done that, do you think Real Madrid would have been able to trade Di Maria for Modric?"

"Well, that's true. Real Madrid should be grateful to us!"

"Yes, San Dezi has calculated it. Now we help Real Madrid raise the price. In the future, Real Madrid will sell Gareth Bale to us at a low price. This deal is a good deal no matter how you look at it."

"Oh my, it turns out that the shrewd Sandezi is playing a very big game of chess!"

"Isn't it? How can you ordinary people understand?"

"San Dezi is truly too great. I think the big commotion in the European transfer market this summer must have been caused by him on purpose, just to make it easier for us to raise the price!"

"Just think about it, they promoted Ranocchia and Icardi, but Mazzarri was sacked; they promoted Evra to Juventus, but Conte was sacked. The ability of these three Germans to raise prices is unprecedented and will never be surpassed!"

"Tsk, what's that? Didn't you see that a few months ago, San Dezi just announced that he would help Dortmund to lift Shinji Kagawa, and it almost caused Dortmund to be relegated. The famous coach Klopp was directly fired. Who else has this skill except the great San Dezi?"

"So, you guys are just naive. Sandezi is just throwing smoke bombs. Do you really think that Manchester United will be interested in players like Di Maria, Pedro and Schweinsteiger? We don't really want to buy them. We just want to raise the price!"

"Ah, Irelia's Moyes is crying, Boss, it's not that I'm not strong enough, but you accidentally lifted me up and dropped me!"

"Uh, it's okay, it's okay. If we take away Moyes, we still have Giggs."

"The great Sandezi is playing a big game of chess. He has 200 million pounds in transfer fees. We are going to create a bloody storm in the transfer market and only buy the expensive ones, not the right ones!"

"Well, then may I ask, why is it that it's already the end of July and we haven't seen any signings yet?"

"Well... you don't understand, right? The European economy is so depressed right now, and the unemployment rate is so high. We at Manchester United, in the spirit of humanitarianism, give priority to talented players. We will then bring in the remaining players who are not talented, to avoid rising unemployment and reduce the burden on the government."

"What the above person said is right. If I hadn't seen Master Lu, he would have been laid off long ago if he was in another team, but in our team, he has the highest salary in the world!"

"Oh my, it turns out that Manchester United is not only focused on raising prices, but is also a humanitarian pioneer group!"

"That's it, that's it!"

"Hey, you guys are going too far. How dare you slander Rooney?"

"That's right. If it gets darker, I'll call the police and check your water meter!"

"Oh my, I'm so scared, Mr. Lu, I'm running away!"

"I escaped too!"

"Fuck it, they're still making an official announcement. It has nothing to do with our family. Just do what you have to do!"

"This team, these signings, damn, there's no way we can survive with this, I'm leaving too!"

WeChat users went silent one after another.

Before long, the WeChat group fell into deathly silence again.

However, among the fans of Southampton next door and in the media around the world, this has already caused an uproar.

Southampton officially announced the signing of Di Maria from Real Madrid.

As soon as this transfer was announced, fans all over the world were excited and countless Saints fans were excited.

Selling Modric is a long-rumored soap opera, and Di Maria leaving Real Madrid is nothing new, but no one expected that Di Maria would choose to come to Southampton!

What's even more frightening is that Southampton had previously introduced Spanish midfielder Fabregas from Barcelona.

Toni Kroos, Fabregas, Di Maria, Pogba, Matic, Kaka, Oscar, Kovacic...

Oh my god, isn’t this midfield lineup so luxurious?

This pace is simply going against the will of heaven!

Many fans who had previously disagreed with Southampton's decision to sell Modric and James Rodriguez were immediately excited when they heard the news.

With such a midfield lineup, Southampton's overall level will definitely not be worse than last season, and may even be stronger. What's more frightening is that the team has made a considerable profit from this series of operations.

The Sun's chief reporter Steven Howard commented in his column that Southampton's summer transfer operations were as efficient as ever, and Peter Kenyon and Ron Gourlay were simply amazing!

Charlene Lahri, a reporter for the Southern Echo, also pointed out in her column that Southampton's transfer signings were very targeted.

"Usually when a team reaches its peak, the person in charge tends to reorganize, and Bielsa is no exception."

"Selling James Rodriguez and Modric and bringing in Di Maria and Fabregas undoubtedly shows Bielsa's thinking."

"After Ibrahimovic moved to Paris Saint-Germain, the team's front center position will undoubtedly belong to Suarez."

"The two center forwards have different technical characteristics, which means they need different midfield support."

"From the recruitment ideas, we can see that in the new season, Bielsa will continue to adopt offensive football, and the midfield will inevitably participate more actively in the frontcourt offense."

"If Southampton paid more attention to control last season, then now, I believe Bielsa's team will play more directly and more threatening, so we definitely have reason to look forward to the Saints in the new season!"

Not only Steven Howard and Charlene Lahrie, but also other professional football newspapers in the UK, Germany, Spain and other countries have given high praise to Southampton's summer signings.

It is believed that the Saints spent the least cost and completed the team's high-quality recruitment and reorganization.

Fans from almost all over the world, while marveling at the Saints' efficient operations, are also full of expectations for the new season of the Premier League.

But just after Southampton announced the signing of Di Maria, Tottenham Hotspur followed suit and announced that the North London team had brought in the Dutch striker Depay, who had performed brilliantly in the World Cup, from Monaco in Ligue 1 for a high price of 35 million pounds.

This transfer is also the fourth major transfer of Tottenham Hotspur this season after Miranda, Felipe and Schweinsteiger, with a total investment of more than 100 million.

Football fans all over the world are amazed by the Qatari tycoons, and Tottenham Hotspur has made everyone feel their determination to fight for the top four of the league, especially after the strong arrival of World Cup-famous coach Van Gaal, they have a better chance of being in the top four.

Manchester City, also a wealthy team, is not to be outdone.

After finishing below Southampton last season, Manchester City has learned from its mistakes and its summer signings are very targeted.

They brought in Brazilian midfielder Fernando from Porto for 15 million euros, defender Sagna from Arsenal on a free transfer, and then brought in French international Mangala from Monaco for a whopping 45 million pounds.

With such impressive offensive capabilities, Manchester City is determined to revamp its defense in order to continue its push for the league title in the new season!

Coincidentally, Liverpool, which performed brilliantly last season and reached the top four of the league, is surrounded by strong opponents this season. In addition, its return to the Champions League has led to a surge in revenue, and it has further stepped up its efforts to recruit players this season.

First, they brought in Italian striker Balotelli from AC Milan for 20 million euros, and then brought in central defender Lovren from Lyon for 25 million euros.

Next up is Moreno from Sevilla, Origi from Lille…

Liverpool also showed its ambition to maintain its top four position in the league in the new season.

Even Arsenal, which finished fourth in the league last season and has always been tight-fisted, has made a rare move to increase investment this summer.

First, Debuchy was brought in from Newcastle for 15 million euros, and then Ospina was brought in from Nice for 4 million euros.

After failing to sign Krychowiak from Atletico Madrid, Arsenal have turned their attention to the Bundesliga, hoping to bring midfielder Lars Bender from Bayer Leverkusen.

In addition, the Gunners also hope to introduce German star Gotze, who is not favored by Guardiola, from Bayern Munich. They hope that Gotze's joining can form a gorgeous attacking lineup in the Gunners' frontcourt together with Ozil.

As for the reinforcement of the defense, Arsenal's target is Inter Milan's main central defender Ranocchia.

Compared with other competitors who are aggressively recruiting players, Manchester United and Chelsea, whose league rankings dropped last season and who lost their qualification for European competitions, seem a bit slow in recruiting players.

It was not until August that Chelsea officially announced the signing of Rakitic from Sevilla and Italian winger Cuadrado from Fiorentina.

But at the same time, Chelsea also let go of stars such as Lukaku, Demba Ba, Eto'o, Ashley Cole and Lampard.

Almost everyone believes that if Chelsea does not make any strong signings, it will still have no hope of finishing in the top four of the Premier League in the new season.

Manchester United's situation is even more embarrassing.

After Fabregas and Di Maria moved to the Saints and Pedro moved to Atletico Madrid, the Red Devils hurriedly introduced Athletic Bilbao midfielder Herrera from the transfer market with a transfer fee of 36 million euros.

But there is still no news about the most important fate of the forward and back line.
