Football King Bale

Seeing that Barnett was turning around to leave, Levi became anxious. He quickly stood up and grabbed Barnett, and said, "Jonathan, don't be in a hurry. If you have any requests, just ask them. We can discuss them!"

Naturally, Barnett would not really want to leave, he was just using this to put pressure on Levi. Seeing that Levi held him back and refused to let him go, he borrowed a step to step off the stage.

After sitting down again, Barnett said: "Daniel, my request is very simple. Tottenham's weekly salary for Gareth must reach at least 70,000 pounds!"

Levi quit immediately, and said loudly: "Impossible! Jonathan, you are a lion!"

Although Tottenham are one of the Premier League powerhouses, they have always been relatively strict in terms of salary control. The team has a clear salary cap, which is a weekly salary cap of 100,000 pounds.

In fact, none of the current Tottenham team has a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds. The highest is the team's second captain, Robbie Keane, whose weekly salary reaches 80,000 pounds.

And Barnett said that Bell's weekly salary will reach 70,000 pounds, which is considered the top salary in the Tottenham team, and it is naturally impossible for Levi to agree.

Barnett sneered, and said lightly: "Daniel, nothing is impossible! You think it is impossible, just because Tottenham are too picky. Do you know how much weekly salary they will give as long as Bale agrees to go to Manchester United?"

As the overlord of the Premier League, Levi knows how proud Manchester United is. Even in the summer, Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez left, but there are still a few of them with a weekly salary of around 100,000 pounds. For example, Rooney, Ferdinand, Berbatov, Vidic and others are all at this level.

However, he was still a little curious about what conditions Manchester United would come up with to recruit Bell, so he asked, "How much?"

Barnett held out seven fingers and said, "Seventy thousand pounds!"

Levi immediately shook his head and said, "Jonathan, stop joking, this is impossible!"

Levy knows that although Manchester United is proud and pays players high salaries, 70,000 pounds is considered an upper-middle level. Bell, a young man who has just turned 20, has only performed well in the league for about two months. It is impossible to give such a salary.

Barnett sneered and said, "Daniel, you don't understand the world of rich people at all. You said that it is impossible for Manchester United to offer Bale a weekly salary of 70,000 yuan? Then do you know that the Koreans who renewed their contracts with Manchester United in the summer all I have already received a weekly salary of 70,000 pounds!"

Levy shook his head and said: "I don't care how much weekly salary Manchester United pays Koreans, and I don't care how much weekly salary Manchester United pays Bell, but at Tottenham, we can't give Bell a weekly salary of 70,000 pounds!"

Levi knew very well that if he really agreed to Barnett's request, the Tottenham team would really mutiny. Bell, a young man who is just 20 years old, can get a weekly salary of 70,000 pounds. The absolute main players of the team, such as Modric, Jenas, Defoe, Crouch, and Lennon, how much should they get? Weekly salary?

Not to mention 70,000 pounds, even 50,000 pounds is absolutely impossible!

In Levi's view, the weekly salary of 30,000 pounds he just mentioned is actually a very sincere and suitable offer.

The psychological price difference between the two was too great, and they finally broke up unhappy. Anyway, there is still more than a month before the opening of the winter transfer window, so everyone can talk slowly.

………………

Barnett told Bell that the first negotiation with Levi had collapsed, and at the same time told Bell not to worry about the contract renewal, he just needs to perform well in the game. The better he is in the game, the better he will be in negotiations.

In this regard, Bell naturally understood. Therefore, in the subsequent training, Bell performed more actively, and did not affect his state at all because of the unsuccessful contract renewal.

A few days later,

The 14th round of the Premier League is in full swing.

Tottenham's opponent in this round is Villa.

This season, Villa's performance in the league is very strong. After thirteen rounds, they achieved 6 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, ranking fifth in the league standings!

Moreover, their performance in the strong dialogue this season is amazing. In the third round, they beat the Red Army Liverpool 3:1 away, and then beat the Blue Army Chelsea 2:1 at home in the ninth round. Now facing Tottenham, they Still want to take all three points at home.

The match between Tottenham and Aston Villa will be held at 5:30 pm GMT on November 28th. Because Birmingham, where Villa is located, is only 150 kilometers away from London, Tottenham did not rush to Birmingham on the first day. , but on the day of the game, after having lunch, he leisurely took the bus to the away game.

One hundred and fifty kilometers, and the whole journey is high-speed, the driving time is less than two hours.

During Tottenham's journey to Birmingham, this round of the Premier League has played six games at three o'clock in the afternoon. Fulham played against Bolton at home, Wigan Athletic played against Sunderland at home, West Ham United played against Burnley at home, Portsmouth host Manchester United, Blackburn host Stoke City and Manchester City host Hull City.

By the time Tottenham arrived at Villa Park for pre-match warm-ups, all six games had ended, three of which were draws, and the other three were decided.

Manchester United beat the deputy squad leader Portsmouth 4:1 in an away game, with 31 points, once again stepping on Tottenham to third place.

West Ham United and Burnley, two teams in the middle and lower reaches of the standings, staged a hearty confrontation. In the end, the Hammers defeated the visiting Burnley 5:3 at home.

Another game that decided the outcome was Wigan Athletic's 1-0 victory over Black Cat Sunderland at home, shattering Sunderland's hope of entering the European theater.

………………

In this game, Lao Lei is still in a 442 formation. Goalkeeper Gomez, four defenders Hector, Bassoon, Dawson and Joel Luka, four midfielders Palacios and Huddlestone dragged behind, Bell and Lennon are separated on the left and right wings, and the striker is still the combination of Crouch and Defoe.

Villa is also a 442 formation, the goalkeeper is the old American goalkeeper Friedel, the back four are Stephen Warnock, Dunn, Cuellar and Beyer, and the four midfielders are Ashley Young, Leo Cork, Petrov, Milner, the double forwards are also a combination of high and fast, Norwegian high center John Carew and Abanglaho.

In fact, the strength of Villa's lineup can be said to be no worse than Tottenham's. Although the old American goalkeeper Friedel is nearly forty years old, he is in good condition. He even moved to Tottenham in 2011 and played for several years.

Stephen Warnock was born in Liverpool's youth academy, but he was not reused in the Red Army. He only played 67 times in 9 years at Anfield. He joined Blackburn during the winter transfer period of 2006-07 and played 87 Premier League games for the team. On August 27, 2009, he was transferred from Blackburn to Aston Villa. He is a left-footed player, mainly as a left back, and can also play a guest role as a left midfielder. He is characterized by fierce tackles and a certain speed.

The 30-year-old Dunn and the 28-year-old Cuellar are both at the age of playing, and the central back line formed by them is an important guarantee for Villa's current performance.

The weakness of their back line may be the 32-year-old old right back Beyer. After moving to Villa this season, he has lost the state of Newcastle's best player in the previous two years.

Of course, Villa's strongest midfielder is their midfielder. The midfielder combination composed of Ashley Young, Petrov, Koke and Milner is definitely the top five in the Premier League. No match for them.

………………

After the start of the game, playing at home, Villa, who was aiming for three points, played very proactively. Using the strong strength of the midfield and the home court advantage, they almost completely suppressed Tottenham.

And luck seems to be on Villa's side. They scored a goal in the 10th minute of the game, which can be called a dream start.

At that time, Ashley Young's strong burst caused a corner kick, Milner took the corner kick, Cuellar headed forward and Basson blocked the goal line, but Dawson in the middle made a poor clearance, and Abang La Huo scored from close range.

Villa lead Tottenham 1-0 at home!

The score fell behind and it was an away game again. Tottenham played very difficult in the ensuing game.

Bell used the experience card of Giggs in this game, and the left-sided combination of him and Hector completely took advantage of the Villa right-sided combination of Ashley Young and Habika Beyer. Not at all cheap.

Although Beyer is not in his best form recently, his rich experience still played a big role. Coupled with Ashley Young's active return and assistance, Bell played very uncomfortable.

Bell couldn't help feeling that he deserves to be Professor Young who will be able to gain a foothold in Manchester United for many years in the future. This ability is really nothing to say.

Tottenham are not only restricted on the left, but the other two are not playing very smoothly, and the scene is under suppression. Fortunately, Tottenham's defense performed fairly steadily afterwards, and did not make a big mistake, keeping the score of 0:1 until the intermission.

At the end of the intermission, the head coaches of both sides did not make adjustments to the lineup, because their respective starters are basically the strongest lineup in the team now.

But Tottenham equalized shortly after the start of the second half.

It was Bale who made the contribution, and he used Giggs' possession for five minutes at the beginning of the second half. Coupled with the fact that coach Lao Lei asked the team to attack at the beginning of the second half, Tottenham's all-round attack finally suppressed Villa.

Under the huge defensive pressure, Villa finally relaxed the defense against Bell. Coupled with the ability of Giggs, in the 49th minute, Bell broke through the left side of the ribs and tore open Violet. Pull the line of defense.

Just when the Villa players thought that Bell would pass the ball, he unexpectedly did not pass the ball, but continued to advance, and finally succeeded in a short shot from the left side of the small penalty area.

1:1! Bell's goal helped Tottenham equalize the score, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.

When Tottenham celebrated their goal, the broadcaster turned the camera to the stands, and a middle-aged man in his fifties appeared in front of the audience. For this man, fans who follow the Premier League are no strangers, Manchester United CEO David Gill!
