    "I think our goalkeeper's position is still a bit lacking." He met with Mourinho privately: "Given is a good goalkeeper, but his height is a bit short. It may not be a big deal now, but it may become a goalkeeper in the future.  The bottleneck that restricts us from achieving better results. Besides, he is not too young at 27 years old. He does not need a lot of games to accumulate experience, but he can definitely become a good substitute goalkeeper.¡±

    "Don't mess around." Mourinho warned Pei Wei: "Given's prestige among players is second only to Shearer You are new to Newcastle, so it's best not to touch such an old minister easily.  "

    "I know this very well" Pei Wei showed a mysterious smile on his face: "I don't plan to touch him now, I just plan to invest in the future For Newcastle now, Ji Wen as the main goalkeeper is enough  But for Newcastle in the future, Given is not the best choice as the main goalkeeper.¡±

    "Then who are you going to invest in?" Mourinho understood what Pei Wei was planning.

    "A very outstanding young man, you will definitely like him in the future, very, very much." Pei Wei laughed.

    "Pet Cech, the main goalkeeper of Rennes in Ligue 1, has just turned 21 years old. He is 1.96 meters tall and weighs 90 kilograms. He has a large defensive area. What is even more rare is that he has such a huge height and still has the ability to defend.  He has keen reflexes and is good at saving penalty kicks. He became a professional player at the age of seventeen and led the Czech youth team to win the European Youth Championship in 2000. "Pei Wei took a piece of information and said to Mourinho: "This goalkeeper I love.  I have been paying attention to it for a long time. If the Chinese league does not allow the use of foreign goalkeepers, then I would have planned to bring him to Yunjia Tianyu the year after Xiao Fei's accident, but it would be good to bring him to Newcastle now  A very promising goalkeeper, if we have him, we won¡¯t have to worry about the goalkeeper position for at least ten years.¡±

    "Judging from these information, he is indeed a young goalkeeper with a bright future." Mourinho nodded: "As for the real situation, I haven't seen his game, so I can't make a judgment I think  , If Newcastle¡¯s goalkeeper hadn¡¯t been Given, you would have bought him to Newcastle a long time ago.¡±

    "That's right." Pei Wei said proudly: "Given is indeed a good goalkeeper, but compared to Cech, both his future development and potential are not at the same level In modern football, the height of the goalkeeper is definitely  The taller the better. What's more, apart from his height, this guy's reflexes are no worse than those of shorter goalkeepers. When Buffon gets older, there will only be two or three goalkeepers in the world who can compare with him!"

    "Are you really so sure?" Mourinho asked with some confusion.

    "Don't worry, I've never made a mistake about a player. When you pay more attention to his game, you will know what a rare genius he is." Pei Wei said with certainty, joking, a few years later.  There is a saying in European football circles that "the best goalkeeper in the world in the past ten years is Buffon, and in the next ten years, the best goalkeeper in the world will be Cech". At his age, he can compete with  In terms of strength and evaluation, he is almost the same as "Saint" Casillas, who became Real Madrid's main goalkeeper at the age of nineteen.  Although Brazil's Cesar and France's Frey were also top-notch goalkeepers, they were still inferior to Cech in terms of overall level in all aspects.

    As for Italy, which has always been the birthplace of first-class goalkeepers, maybe it was because the monster Buffon was so good that within ten years after Buffon was born.  Italy does not have a super-level goalkeeper, and most of the goalkeepers of the domestic strong teams are controlled by foreign goalkeepers. For example, Milan and Roma chose the second-generation main goalkeepers of the Brazilian national team Dida, Cesar and  The substitute goalkeeper is Doni, and the French goalkeeper Frey is guarding the door of Florence. Good goalkeepers such as Amelia and Petzzoli can only play games in the middle and lower reaches of the team like Livorno and Reggina. No wonder  Later, some Italian fans lamented: "After Zoff there was Zenga, after Zenga there was Pagliuca, after Pagliuca there was Peruzzi. After Peruzzi there was Toldo, after Toldo there was Buffon, Buffon  After Feng, who will guard the door of the Italian national team? "

    After calming down, Pei Wei returned his thoughts to reality - he didn't need to worry about who would guard the gate of the Italian national team. You must know that the goalkeeper's condition can be maintained for a long time. Maybe before Buffon ages,  A new monster will emerge in Italy.  Just like Zenga quickly took over after Zoff retired.

    "Although our current goalkeeper position is pretty good. But Harper is just a suitable substitute. As for the third goalkeeper, it is just a backup candidate for precaution. Given is twenty-seven years old, which is not a good age for a goalkeeper.  It¡¯s considered old, but it also means it¡¯s impossibleIf we can make further progress, our goal in the future will definitely not be just to enter the Champions League every year. After all positions have been strengthened, the goalkeeper position may become a shortcoming in our lineup In fact, I think Given is a  He is a good substitute for the goalkeeper. Look, he is stable, taciturn, popular, and he is not too young. He does not need a lot of games to maintain his condition and after Cech comes next year, the two of them can start a healthy competition.  But they are not troublesome people. Given is known as a good old man, and Cech, a young man, also has a humility that is different from ordinary people. As long as a team has healthy competition, there will be no problems.  "

    "Do you plan to buy Cech this year, but not bring him in, and let him train in Ligue 1 for another year?" Mourinho said thoughtfully: "Then I don't have any problem, you can let him train more  One year will give me enough time to observe his performance, and Ji Wen can also feel a certain amount of pressure. After all, he has been the main goalkeeper for seven years and needs a sense of urgency."

    The negotiation with Rennes went very smoothly. Rennes itself is not a strong team, and they are not even ranked in Ligue 1. Now Ligue 1 has almost replaced Ajax in the role of blood transfusion for the four major league clubs. Every year from  There are countless stars who have gone out of Ligue 1, and naturally they will not care about Cech. What's more, the conditions offered by Pei Wei are extremely generous, a transfer fee of 7 million pounds, and the transfer is not immediate, but one year later.  Transfer, after receiving such a large transfer fee, you can still use Cech for free for one year, and only need to bear the salary-this kind of good thing is not often encountered.

    However, after the transfer news spread, Newcastle caused a wave of ridicule. For a goalkeeper, buying it for nearly 10 million euros is simply a sky-high price, not to mention a goalkeeper who is only 21 years old.  Yes, there are only young people with one year of experience in the Czech League and Ligue 1. If you buy a 29-year-old defensive midfielder for more than 20 million euros, the other players except Lucio and Nie Fei are not in the league.  A star who has proven himself in the World Cup, it is a great honor that the title of "taken advantage of" that fell to Chelsea in history fell to Newcastle.

    Although Chelsea spent a lot on players this year, they are all relatively well-known players. Veron, Crespo, and Duff, the three most expensive players, are all famous. Veron was once the best in the world.  In the midfield, Crespo has always been the world's super forward, and although Duff may be less famous in the world, he is also the leading winger in England. Unlike Newcastle, who is either a young rookie or not very famous.  For the powerful side, although the transfer expenditure of 87.2 million pounds is a little less than Chelsea's 88.5 million pounds, the cost-effectiveness seems to be much worse.

    "Laugh, laugh, laugh as much as you want. Whoever laughs last will laugh best." Pei Wei sneered in his heart. In fact, apart from Duff and Joe Cole, the players purchased by Chelsea this year are considered  In addition to being worthy of their worth, several other major investments were absolute failures. Mutu, Veron, Crespo and Gremi basically did not play a big role during their time at Chelsea.  At that time, he could not bring back a penny of transfer fees. At least Pei Wei believed that even if the players he bought now are useless in the future, he could still recover some of the cost by transferring them.

    This season¡¯s Premier League, with the strong participation of two rich men from Russia and China, immediately compared Serie A and La Liga in terms of money burning.

    Chelsea, with a transfer expenditure of 88.5 million pounds, and Newcastle, with a transfer expenditure of 87.2 million pounds. Compared with these two upstarts, the three old and traditional strong teams look much shabby. Manchester United purchased  The new Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, Brazilian international Kleberson, Cameroon international Djemba and American international Howard only spent a total of 23.97 million pounds, while the transfers of Beckham and Veron were  Cashed out more than 40 million pounds for the Red Devils. It seems that Sir Alex Ferguson has not lost his ability to make money after Kenyon left, while Professor Wenger is short of money. The club's plan to build a new stadium has forced the professor to tighten his money, except  After transferring to Germany's No. 2 goalkeeper Lehmann for 2.3 million pounds, the professor actually couldn't come up with the money and could only ask the Chinese club Yunjia Tianyu to extend Adriano's loan period for one year.  After getting Pei Wei's consent, Jiang Hao agreed to the request, but Pei Wei naturally would not let the professor go just like this. Arsenal and Newcastle secretly signed an agreement. If Sun Chenghai wants to transfer in the future, Newcastle has the first priority to purchase it.  right.  Another strong team, Liverpool, only spent 10 million pounds to purchase Australian star Kewell from Leeds United and Fulham's Irish right back Finland.

    After this series of storms ends, the Premier League in the new season will definitely be more exciting than the last season.?Much.  Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work
