Chapter 15 Quite a sense of achievement
On April 9, 1975, a football genius was born, Robbie Fowler.
Liverpool City's children always have teams they like since childhood, either Liverpool or Everton.
The same is true for Robbie Fowler. He hoped to like Everton since he was a child, not the Reds Liverpool. However, he found that the scout of the Thousand Miles was still Liverpool's scout, which made Fowler a member of Liverpool's youth training camp.
In 1994, when Evans took over Liverpool, the team underwent a major change. The young Fowler and his friend McManaman appeared on the Premier League stage together. No one expected that in the second game of appearance for the Reds, the fledgling Fowler took over all five Liverpool goals and became famous since then.
The continuous goals of the genius killer Fowler immediately replaced his idol - Rush, known as a genius of a generation, and became the new favorite of Liverpool fans.
Robbie Fowler has outstanding skills and outstanding abilities. He has a keen sense of smell in the penalty area, can shoot left and right, has excellent skills, and can do anything a striker needs to do. Therefore, he is also known as the most talented player in England after Gascoin.
Before the 1998 World Cup, the Liverpool forward combination formed by Robbie Fowler and Michael Irving made the opponent frightened.
Unfortunately, there will always be twists and turns for geniuses. At this critical moment, Robbie Fowler's cruciate ligament was injured. This injury was fatal to Robbie, which directly led to his failure to appear in the French World Cup with Irving.
Not only did he miss the World Cup, but more importantly, after the World Cup, England's future became another Liverpool talented boy - Michael Irving overnight, while Robbie Fowler, who was equally outstanding, could only drag his injured thigh and watch others' glory.
After returning from injury, Robbie Fowler's condition was also greatly affected, and he fell to the point where he could only devote himself to regaining the main position from Husky.
The next year, with his friend McManaman, he switched to Real Madrid. Soon Robbie Fowler discovered that it might only be a matter of time before he left Anfield.
The former Prince Anfield was affectionately become the genius killer of God by Liverpool fans. After scoring 171 goals in 330 games for Liverpool, he finally took off his red robe that brought him countless glory. He officially transferred to Leeds United for £11 million.
However, killers are always killers, and geniuses are not so easy to be erased.
In December 2001, Fowler scored his first hat-trick at Leeds United. On January 2, 2002, in the home game against West Ham United, Fowler scored his sixth goal in a month of transfer. On March 18, 2002, in the 2001-2002 Premier League, Fowler scored 2 goals in 3 minutes, helping Leeds United win a row. At the same time, this is also his 11th goal in his last 17 games.
Robbie Fowler at Leeds United is simply omnipotent!
It’s a pity that God is jealous of talent. Soon Fowler fell in front of the injured pass again. Due to a buttock injury, Fowler missed most games at the end of the season. In the new season, he rarely had the chance to play.
Even so, he was able to contribute goals and applause from fans in a short and limited time.
After God teased Robbie Fowler for a few years, he still refused to let him go. Leeds United's fiscal black hole allowed the club to transfer players significantly. Of course, outsiders like Robbie Fowler were not spared.
At the age of 28, Robbie Fowler came to Manchester and began his darkest and difficult career. His continuous injuries at Manchester City have led to extremely unstable appearances. Fortunately, his appearance is in good shape every time he appears. With his natural killer talent, his goal efficiency is pretty good. Now, he is the only striker to be mentioned in Manchester City's frontcourt.
Anyone who knows Robbie Fowler must admit that if he is not injured, he may have the opportunity to become England's best striker. The kind of smell and excellent and comprehensive skills that are born in front of the goal are definitely not something that ordinary frontcourt players can have.
Many people can only sigh when talking about Robbie Fowler
Wan Sheng would also sigh for Robbie Fowler. After all, this is a real frontline killer. Unlike others, he not only sighs, but also helps Robbie Fowler. With the mission system of the football training master, Robbie Fowler's injuries can definitely recover faster and be in a more stable state. At the same time, he can cure his hidden injuries. The improvement of his physical condition will definitely reduce the possibility of him being injured again.
This victory is equivalent to creating a Robbie Fowler who will not be injured.
A Robbie Fowler who is not injured is definitely a nightmare for every opponent. As long as Robbie Fowler is guaranteed, the team will not have any efficiency problems in the frontcourt.
Wansheng is already looking forward to it.
A Robbie Fowler can ensure the efficiency of the frontcourt, but a Robbie Fowler alone is definitely unstable. Even with a football training master system, it only minimizes the possibility of injury. It is impossible to ensure 100% non-injury. What's more, the front line cannot be pressed on one person, so the team's forward line still needs to be replenished.
It is best to add a top-notch forward, such as Michael Irving, who plays for Real Madrid.
In fact, after Wan Sheng became Manchester City's head coach, he thought of Robbie Fowler and Michael Irving. The combination of the two was once hailed as England's strongest forward line.
If Michael Irving can be recruited into the team, then he can recreate the classic forward combination.
Michael Irving's year at Real Madrid was definitely a tragedy. He was in good health, but he could only be a substitute, which even affected his performance in the national team.
During this period, many media were also talking about Michael Irving because he had made it clear that he wanted to return to the Premier League.
The memories of his previous life tell Wan Sheng that Michael Irving has not been in Real Madrid for a long time, which means that he is likely to return to the Premier League this summer, and he is not joining Liverpool.
Wan Sheng didn't have much impression of what team Irving transferred to, but since Irving could return to the Premier League, Manchester City would definitely have a chance. Unfortunately, the team's transfer funds are currently limited. Even if they sell Wright Phillips at a high price, it would be impossible for him to free up more than ten million pounds of transfer funds, so Irving didn't have to think about it.
Therefore, to add to the front line, you can only find those less famous players, or players who are free transfers.
There is a player that has been finalized by 80%. That is veteran Andy Cole.
Black Wind Double Evil. This is a commemorative noun.
The leading striker of the Premier League giant Manchester United at the end of the 20th century and early 21st century, Andy Cole and York formed a double evil spirit. Because they were black people, they were nicknamed the "Black Wind Double Evil". The frontcourt whirlwind of the "Black Wind Double Evil" that year made countless Premier League defenders frightened.
While helping Manchester United ascend the "triple crown", it also creates the legend of "Black Wind Double Evil".
Andy Cole, one of the "Black Wind Twins", is now infinitely close to Manchester City.
Although he is already a 34-year-old veteran, Andy Cole scored 14 goals in the league last season for Fulham. He became Fulham's chief scorer and his goal efficiency is guaranteed. However, after the end of the season, he was unable to renew his contract due to conflicts with head coach Coleman and became a free agent.
Soon Andy Cole's agent contacted Manchester City. Manchester City had lacked strikers. If Wan Sheng had not become Manchester City's head coach, Andy Cole would have already belonged to Manchester City, and would have decided to wait for Wan Sheng to win.
Wan Sheng thought about it carefully and decided to sign Andy Cole.
Wan Sheng prefers to sign some young and potential players, but coaching experience tells him that veterans often play a good role, especially veterans like Andy Cole who are in good condition. He can ensure his condition and efficiency as long as he appears, and veterans can also teach some experience to new players, which is a valuable asset for any team.
What's more, Andy Cole is still a free agent and doesn't have to spend a penny of transfer fees. It's better to sign him to supplement the front line.
However, Andy Cole is not the only forward player Wan Sheng wants to introduce. He hopes to get a truly efficient and energetic young forward. What he likes is Darren Bent, who plays for Ipswich.
Two years ago, he had a ten-win victory, but unfortunately, Derby County had almost no transfer funds at that time. As a second-tier team, its attractiveness would not exceed Ipswich. The next year, he got Rafael Van der Fate, so naturally he didn't need Darren Bent.
Manchester City's forward must need a young genius now.
Whether it is Robbie Fowler or Andy Cole, they are a little older. Even if they can guarantee appearance and form, the team must increase their vitality in the third line, so that the game and tactics can be played more flexibly, so it is necessary to be younger. From a tactical perspective, Andy Cole and Robbie Fowler are not pure forwards. It is better for them to be second forwards, so they naturally need to add a forward shooter who is stronger than the front.
Darren Bent just fits the requirements.
He is only 21 years old, and his state and strength are in an upward period. He is very fast and has a strong ability to grab points in front of the goal. Although he is not the kind of tall center forward, his bounce ability is quite excellent, so his header will naturally not be bad.
Although such a player is not as good as Fanny, Henry, Shepchenko and others, he is definitely quite outstanding. With the attribute bonus of the football training master system and the ability bonus of various coaching skills, even if he still looks a little immature, he is enough to compare with the world's top strikers.
In addition, on the better side, Darren Bent has only proved himself in the second division. His value is not too high and he will definitely not exceed 5 million pounds, which is within the scope of Manchester City's club.
This is also why Wansheng is eager to get Darren Bent.
It is not easy to get a player who can play the strength of the world's top striker now. As long as he has some fame, his net worth will exceed 10 million pounds. For example, Darren Bent, who is capable, in good condition and not worth a lot, there are not many players in Europe who are not worth.
So after making the decision, Wan Sheng immediately notified the club to start a transfer against Darren Bent. At the same time, he also asked someone to find Darren Bent's phone number and planned to talk to Darren Bent in person.
From this we can see that Wansheng attaches great importance to Darren Bent.
Nowadays, he only needs to hand over the transfer of players to the club. It is best to reach a deal. If he cannot reach a deal, he will consider other people, but Darren Bent has to call him.
Obviously, Darren Bent was also a little flattered.
At this time, he was on the beach with his girlfriend Mifaro. He was lying on the beach. Mifaro was piled up a pile of sand. Then he saw the phone screen lit up, and a strange number was displayed on it.
"Didn't your friend say that you came on vacation with me? Why did they call me?" Mifaro complained.
Darren Bent smiled, but picked up the phone and dialed the answer button. Then he heard a strange voice from the opposite side, "Hello, is it Darren Bent?"
"Yes." Darren-Bent replied indifferently.
"Hello, I am Wan Sheng, the head coach of Manchester City Club. I'm sorry that calling at this time has affected you, but I'm optimistic about your future and hope you can consider joining."
Wan Sheng said directly, but was immediately interrupted by Darren Bent's surprise, "Who do you think you are?"
"Manchester City coach won thousands of wins!"
"Manchester City coach Wan Sheng! Oh my God! God!" Darren Bent could no longer suppress his surprise. He stood up and asked, "Are you Mr. Wan Sheng? You said you are optimistic about me and hope I will join your team? Oh my God!"
""
Wan Sheng was speechless, he just listened.
"I really couldn't imagine that Charlton was very interested in me before, and I thought I must be going to Charlton. I didn't think about it before. But when you called, I was really surprised. I mean, yes, it would be hard for me to make a decision if I chose one between Charlton and Manchester City, but if I chose one between you and Mr. Kubishley, I would definitely choose you!"
"Of course, as long as the club agrees, I am biased towards you. I really want to join your team. That's great! You are a coach who can create miracles, and I can't help but think about standing on the championship stage next year!"
"I have been thinking about why Derby County won the Premier League championship. In the end, I can only conclude that, as the media said in the news, this is all your credit. Your ability to lead the team is much better than others. I think if I go to Manchester City, I will definitely be able to perform well."
Next, Darren Bent said something big, and Wan Sheng pressed his forehead and listened, but he felt good. The player he wanted to invite was actually his admirers, and he even praised him on the phone. Although this was different from what he imagined, it was better than he imagined.
The last conversation between the two ended successfully.
Darren Bent repeatedly guaranteed that he would prefer to join Manchester City. Of course, the premise was that the transfer fee paid by Manchester City should not be too shabby. Wan Sheng also praised Darren Bent's goal last season, which almost made Darren Bent jump up happily in two or three sentences.
Anyway, this is a very magical conversation.
After putting down the phone, Wan Sheng was a little confused, but he found that being famous was also very good. Just like the phone call just now, he had prepared a lot of words and even planned to make some promises, but he didn't say anything. Darren Bent agreed directly when he heard his name.
This is really a sense of accomplishment (to be continued.)
