Chapter 18 The enemy is all-round competition (the second one is asking for a monthly pass)
When Manchester United fans and the media began to call on the Manchester United club to increase its efforts in the transfer market, Ferguson happened to be in an interview with Manchester United’s owner Glazer. "" Novel Netizens Hand Hit
What he did is the same as what the fans and the media have called for, that is, he hopes Glazer can spend more money to help Manchester United continue to maintain the position of Premier League hegemony.
He must convince Glazer that Liverpool has become a very terrifying enemy. If Manchester United do not increase investment and deal with Liverpool as they did in the previous seasons, I am afraid that they will die miserably in the end.
"Is Liverpool really that great?" Glazer was a little skeptical.
He suspected that Ferguson was an excuse that his opponent was very strong, and then he made money from his pocket. In the past few seasons, facing the challenges of Manchester City, Manchester United did not deliberately increase investment, but also maintained the momentum of consecutive championships.
In his view, Manchester City is very powerful, and Liverpool are just as good as Manchester City, and they are almost the same.
How could Ferguson not know what his boss was thinking, he explained: "A hundred times better than Manchester City!"
Glazer raised his eyebrows, he didn't believe it.
Manchester United itself is not a hundred times more powerful than Manchester City. Why is Liverpool?
Ferguson had to continue to explain to him, and explained in great detail.
"In England, Liverpool's reputation is no less than ours. Their appeal among English players even surpasses ours. Such a team, if it weren't for the previous lack of money and no right person, would have become with us. The same team. But now they have money, and they also have a lot of outstanding players, if we are not vigilant, our position in the Premier League will be surpassed and replaced by them..." Said these are actually good for Glazer It's useless.
Seeing that Glazer was unmoved, Ferguson had to throw out his killer.
"If Liverpool were to take the place of Manchester United, then Manchester United's brand value would fall, and profits would also fall. In other words, boss, your assets would shrink as a result."
After speaking, Ferguson looked at Glazer.
This sentence really worked. Glazer heard that his money would become less, and immediately couldn't sit still.
He moved his hips, and then asked Ferguson, "Well, how much do you want?"

Ferguson felt that there was only one thing in the world that could stop him from moving forward, and he couldn't change it.
That is "money".
Not to mention that a penny is hard to die a hero, even ten million may get him into trouble. Without money, no amount of his ambitions can be realized. Without money, he can only lower his goals, stabilize his position in the domestic league, and temporarily abandon the European war. Without money, he can only watch his opponents buying one by one, but he has no money to do, and he can only tap the potential internally.
In fact, in recent years, Manchester United has been able to win the domestic league championship consecutively while reducing capital investment. Ferguson has already done his best.
Change a coach to bring Manchester United, maybe you can't even qualify for the Europa League.
Although this kind of performance proves that he is not old, it proves his strong coaching ability. But Ferguson would rather be accused of winning the championship because of a strong lineup.
Looking at the crazy buyers of Manchester City next door, even to the point of waste, it is fake to say that it is not envious.
Looking at Liverpool in the summer of Pepe and Goetze, he really felt the crisis.
If there is no money, he may really have to lose in this battle.
So he needs money.
With money, he can declare war on Liverpool and bring this downturned dynasty trying to revive back to the abyss for another five hundred years. Completely ruined the hope of Liverpool's revival.

Everyone is waiting for news that Manchester United will declare war on Liverpool in the transfer market.
Many players are now connected with Manchester United, but those are all rumors, and which ones are true will have to wait for the official announcement.
Shinji Kagawa joined Manchester United and spent 20 million Euros. But this is not enough, Manchester United also needs more players.
And like Liverpool, they also need to strengthen their strength on the bench.
However, if you just buy a substitute, there is no way to boost Manchester United's morale. Only the head coach knows the importance of a substitute, but the fans who are watching don't care. They just want to see big-name stars join.
Only in this way can they rekindle their confidence.
So Manchester United needs a sensational transfer news.
At the end of July, Manchester United finally made a move.
On July 28th, the Manchester United Club officially announced that Modric, a midfielder like Tottenham, was transferred for 38 million pounds!
The news is like a doping shot for Manchester United fans.
Modric has performed very well at Tottenham Hotspur in the past few seasons. He is the core of Tottenham's well-deserved midfielder, able to organize attacks on his own as well as command and dispatch. He is the best midfielder in the Premier League last season. In the early years, he received the attention of many giants, such as Real Madrid is very interested in him.
He almost went to Real Madrid last season, if it weren't for Bell's transfer...Because of Bell's transfer, Modric's transfer negotiations were suspended. Bale's departure has been considered a major injury to Tottenham, and if Modric leaves again, Tottenham's midfielder will be even more troublesome.
Modric promised to stay with the team for one year, on the condition that if a giant team is interested in him next season, Tottenham will let them go.
※※※
Modric's transfer proved Manchester United's ambition-they are absolutely unwilling to let Liverpool ride to the neck. Whether on the court or in the transfer market, they have to break their wrists with Liverpool.
It is not enough to buy Modric, and Manchester United continues to make a **** storm in the transfer market.
They then bought Barnes, the main left back of the England national team, from Everton for 18 million pounds.
De Jong, the main Dutch midfielder, also came from Naples for 15 million pounds.
In addition, they also snatched Pedro from Barcelona, costing them 25 million pounds.
Manchester United's series of actions in the transfer market made Manchester United fans hooked, and they were full of confidence in Manchester United's new season. With such a strong lineup, Sir Alex Ferguson is obviously aspiring to a thousand miles. This time it should not only be a little trouble in the domestic league, he must go to the European arena to play Yang Wei!
At the same time, these people have also said that Liverpool's actions in the transfer market are not enough to see, only Pepe and Gotze are the most famous, and the quality of others is obviously not comparable to Manchester United's transfer. So after the start of the new season, they have been waiting to see Liverpool's jokes.
In the face of Manchester United's aggressive offensive, does Liverpool have to make any response?
※※※
Martin O'Neal called a meeting of three captains, this will have something to do with Manchester United, but not all with Manchester United.
In fact, before the start of each season, the head coach will convene three captains for a meeting. Before Carragher had not retired, there were four captains. Chen Yingxiong was the fourth captain and could also participate in such meetings. This time, Niang, the club’s general manager, also participated.
The first thing to discuss is the issue of transfer.
Facing Manchester United's aggressive offensive in the transfer market, will Liverpool continue to sign in?
"You can continue to sign in, but I'm afraid I won't be able to spend too much money. It will be very difficult to buy a player of Pepe's level."
General Manager Niang introduced to everyone the current financial situation of the club. Liverpool is unable to fully support the team in the transfer market because it needs a lot of funds to restart the construction of the Stanley Stadium in the new season. In fact, this summer, Liverpool has already spent a lot of money on buying people.
It cost 30 million euros to buy Pepe. The purchase cost 23 million euros plus a Shaheen. It cost five million pounds to buy Thornton, which is about seven million euros. James McCarthy is worth 13 million pounds, which is about 17 million euros. Michael Kelly spent five million pounds for Liverpool, which is about seven million euros. Two million pounds, equivalent to approximately 2.6 million euros, bought substitute goalkeeper Alex Smith.
These players spent a total of 86.6 million Euros for Liverpool, which is nearly 100 million. Such transfer investment is counted in European football this summer. It can be seen from this that Niang and Chen Xing have put a lot of effort into this team, and they also cooperate with Martin O'Neal. They can be regarded as very cooperative management.
Martin O'Neal also knows this. The club has already spent a lot of money this summer and brought him a lot of players he likes. He has no excuse to continue asking the club for money.
But Manchester United is so aggressive, don't Liverpool really need to store more players? He was a little worried.
"If it doesn't work, we will find more cheap and good-quality, cost-effective players to enrich the team's bench. Last season, our biggest problem was that the strength gap between the bench lineup and the main lineup was too large..."
Martin O'Neal's words were quickly interrupted by Chen Yingxiong.
"I don't think I need to buy people, boss." Chen Yingxiong said to Martin O'Neill.
Everyone turned their attention to him.
"I think we are strong enough, let alone dealing with Manchester United with this lineup, even if it is dealing with Real Madrid and Barcelona, I think it is enough."
His words shocked everyone present-how ignorant or arrogant it is to be able to say such a thing...
Is Chen Yingxiong ignorant?
No, then he must be arrogant.
Niang asked him, "Are you sure, hero?"
Chen Yingxiong nodded: "I have confidence in myself and my teammates. I think if Manchester United buy a few people, we will follow to buy a few people, then we will lose, because we are weak in momentum, we There should be a difference between buying people actively and buying people passively. What you lose cannot lose momentum!"
Gerrard nodded after listening to Chen Yingxiong's words, and then expressed his support for Chen Yingxiong.
"The hero is right, boss. It was our actions in the transfer market that forced Manchester United to buy people. This is a fact everyone knows. Now if we buy too, it does not mean that we are forced by Manchester United. Is it untenable? In this way, how will the media hype this matter? What will our fans think of us? If the performance in the transfer market is a war, if we follow the rhythm of Manchester United, We will lose. Perhaps the best thing to do is to ignore the other party."
Rainer raised his hand: "I agree with both of them."
Niang looked at Martin O'Neill: "Then don't buy people?"
Martin O'Neill thought for a while, and felt that his disciples were right that war is all-round, and momentum is also a very important indicator. He is not as arrogant as Chen Yingxiong. He doesn't think this lineup can deal with European powerhouses, but he thinks it shouldn't be a problem to deal with Manchester United at sunset.
He also nodded: "There is no need to buy people, we can directly announce the end of the transfer."
