Chapter 1057 New season and new journey

At the end of the Olympic men's football final, the Chinese Olympic team beat Argentina 4:2 to win the gold medal.

This is the most important gold medal in this Olympics. The Chinese team won this gold medal, making its title of No. 1 in the gold medal list even more brilliant.

A day later, the 29th Capital Olympics closed. The Chinese team dominated the world for the first time with 52 gold medals. The United States ranked second, winning only 36 gold medals, Russia ranked third, and winning 23. The two superpowers combined only have 7 more gold medals than the Chinese team.

Chinese football has always appeared in front of China and the world with a negative image, but in this Olympics, Chinese football is impressive. They became heroes for the first time and received unanimous praise from the media, officials and fans.

After the Olympics, when other Chinese Olympic team players were busy accepting interviews, shooting advertisements, and attending various activities, the biggest contributor to the Chinese team's championship, captain Chen Yu, had already flew to Europe to participate in the fierce Premier League.

Due to the tight time involved in the Olympics, Chen Yu and Zhang Shubin were unable to split up and distract themselves. After a brief discussion, Chen Yu and Zhang Shubin rejected the invitation from other clubs and chose to stay in Liverpool.

Faced with the World Footballer who is in a state of perfect condition and does not look old, the two American bosses who are in an economic crisis also offered Chen Yu an annual salary of 10 million euros without hesitation, ranking first in the world.

Because Chen Yu did not transfer, it caused a chain reaction. For example, the rumors of Cristiano Ronaldo, Drogba, Adebayo, Villa, Al Shawen and others did not make it. The highest transfer value this summer was Brazilian cycling genius Robinho, who transferred from Real Madrid to Manchester City for 42 million euros, followed by Berbatov. After Manchester United failed in the Champions League, the old Sir Judg spent 37 million euros to snatch Berbatov from Tottenham, hoping that Baba could play the same role as Chen Yu and help Manchester United win the league and Champions League championships.

Chen Yu's stay made Liverpool very stable. Rick Barry only did five transactions this summer, selling Crouch, Carson and Riser, and buying Robbie Gene and Liera.

Although the departure of Liser and Crouch made Liverpool fans regretful, after Liser left, there was Aurelio, and even Abero Ado, who could play. Crouch was too thin, and with Chen Yu, Liverpool needed a striker like Robbie Gene to seize the opportunity created by Chen Yu.

After Manchester United made up for Berbatov, its lineup can be almost perfect. From last season's performance, we can see that the only problem with Manchester United is the lack of a capable shooter on the forward line. After Berbatov joined for 37 million euros, Manchester United's final weakness has been improved. Now Manchester United's lineup is almost the best in the club's history, and it is one of the few in the Premier League today.

Manchester United's performance is also very good in resale players. Only three of the main players of the team left the team. Although Pique scored two goals for Manchester United last season, his ability is actually not able to assume a big responsibility in Manchester United's central defender position. He transferred to Barcelona and earned 5 million euros for Manchester United. This deal can only be said to be cost-effective. The departure of Sylvester and Sach, the two French glassesmen, will not have any impact on Manchester United's strength.

Chelsea's transfer market this summer has both disappointing and surprising points. The sell-off of Ben Haim, Bolarus, Sidwell, Wright and others have recovered 29 million euros for the club. Although it is not as good as the cost price, Chelsea spent only 30 million euros to buy people this season. After changing coaches, Chelsea did not set off a storm in the transfer market this summer, and it is absolutely surprising that it basically maintains a balance of income and expenditure.

The disappointment is that although Chelsea acquired Bosingwa, the weakness of the right-back link was enhanced; the acquisition of Deco made the club's midfielder stronger in the middle, and artistic football was initially reflected. However, after Chelsea sold Wright, neither Chen Yu nor Robinho could come as he wished. The midfield still did not achieve the direct strike ability that Scolari hoped. Without Robinho on the wing, Chelsea seemed to lack a winger, and Scolari's team could not be considered perfect.

In addition, Chelsea let off veteran Marklele in the transfer market, and loaned two major squadrons Shevchenko and Pizarro. In order to streamline redundant staff, Chelsea completed quite well.

Arsenal suffered heavy losses in the transfer market in the new season. It is still a small matter to let go of Gilberto, who has hope of becoming the captain of the season, and Sendros left Milan only a problem of being a main substitute. But the departure of Hleb and Flamini had definitely had a great impact on the Gunners. 15 million euros, Arsenal seemed to have never retained the heart of the Belarusian. Flamini had begged the club last summer to express his hope of renewing the contract. Wenger did not expect that the French young player would perform so well last season and refused to provide him with a new contract. The loss of heavy players can only be said to be the result of his own fault. In the midfield position, Arsenal can now expect it. First, don't have any wounded players; second, the young players who are on the top can shoulder the heavy responsibility.

As a new player, Nasri is Wenger's most important acquisition. The strength of this French young player is obvious to all, but whether he can adapt to the Premier League still needs to be proved by time. Ramsey is Wenger's new hope. Although he has outstanding strength, it seems that it will be difficult to become the main force of the team in the short term. Another young Walcott, Wenger's team is always full of hope.

This summer, the biggest money-burning king in Europe is Manchester City. They spent more than 100 million euros to buy players, and Manchester City has greatly strengthened its lineup. Ben Haim and Kompani may become the main central defender partner of Manchester City in the new season. Zabaleta and Wright Jr. may have a positional dispute on the team's right side. If the Brazilian and Robinho successively break Manchester City's transfer fee record, in terms of selling people, Manchester City only transfers Korruca, who is already difficult to have a position, and then sends Bianchi, who seems to never be able to adapt to the Premier League, back to Italy. These two deals brought back 17 million euros of income to Manchester City. At the end of the season, Chinese defender Sun Hai was one of Manchester City's abandoned sons, but because of Sun Hai's outstanding performance in the men's football team at the Olympics, Manchester City finally left Sun Hai.

Tottenham had a major change this summer, buying people for a huge sum of 84.9 million euros, but selling people also made 75.75 million euros. Selling two leading scorers last season, Tottenham received 61 million euros, and Cabriano's joining Portsmouth also gave Tottenham a return of 6.5 million euros. But except for these three, other resales will not have much impact on the team. In terms of buying people, Modric 21 million, Pavlyuchenko 17.4 million, Bentley 22 million, Korluca 10.5 million, Gome 8 million, and Ramos's team has been significantly changed.

In this summer, the Premier League clubs spent 614.655 million euros, earned 342.42 million euros, and had a deficit of 272.235 million euros. They once again became the largest client group in the European transfer market. After the final madness of the transfer window, the four giants basically completed the team's transformation. After the two teams Tottenham and Manchester City made great efforts, they have hope to make a breakthrough in the Premier League's top four. After a minor repair and make up for it, the mid-range team hopes to stabilize their results in the new season. The relegation team has also made great efforts, and the reputation of the Money League has been confirmed again.

When Chen Yu returned to Liverpool after the Olympics, the Premier League had already started two rounds, with Liverpool and Chelsea winning two consecutive games, while Manchester United, which was highly anticipated, had one win and one draw, and Arsenal even more had one win and one loss.

Originally, Benitez was very dissatisfied with Chen Yu staying in China to play the Olympics, but Chen Yu's brand is too big and important to Liverpool. Moreover, Chen Yu has not renewed his contract, which made Benitez dare not express any dissatisfaction, and was worried that Chen Yu would transfer to other teams in anger.

After the start of the game, the team performed surprisingly well, and the grouping situation of the Champions League group stage was also good. Liverpool, Marseille, Atletico Madrid, and Eindhoven were assigned to the same group. There were no giant teams. Liverpool's group first was very stable, which made Benitez very happy. In the third round of the game against Aston Villa, simply let Chen Yu, who had just arrived, sit on the bench.

Obviously Benitez is a bit arrogant. Aston Villa is very ambitious this season. Although the start is one win and one loss, they won Manchester City and lost Stoke City.

Facing defending champion Liverpool, Aston Villa was not afraid at all, and frequently used counterattacks to threaten Liverpool's goal. The game ended at 65 minutes, and the score was still 0:0. Benitez was anxious and sent Chen Yu to break the deadlock on the court.
