Chapter 118 The Final Battle of the King's Cup

While Valencia's players were actively preparing for the Copa del Rey final, Lee Polo received an invitation to attend the head coach's private banquet.

"Did your agent reject the contract extension proposed by the club?"

As the head coach and sporting director, Gary Neville is of course in control of the contract dynamics of all players. He is just asking questions knowingly.

Li Polo did not hide it, he smiled and nodded:

"Boss Lin's love for football is not enough. The club's entire management team is sometimes not professional enough.

Big Neville shrugged his shoulders, of course he knew these problems.

Although when he first acquired the team in 2014, Boss Lin spent a lot of money in two consecutive summer transfer windows, and even spent more than Real Madrid and Barcelona at one time, it only took two years for Boss Lin to "suddenly wake up".

After looking at the identity of the boss behind Chelsea, Manchester City, and Paris, and then looking at his bank account, he understood a truth:

With his net worth, it is impossible for him to continue playing so unscrupulously every year!

Football...is a bottomless pit!

I don’t have oil or natural gas in the Middle East, so I should learn from Arsenal, Tottenham, and Dortmund, not Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and the big tycoons!

So when Barcelona proposed buying Paco and Gomez last year, there was almost no resistance from the club's top brass.

When Arsenal poached Mustafi at the buzzer, the Valencia management only complained a little and bowed their heads in front of the huge sum of 45 million euros.

"I'm not here to persuade you to stay in Valencia."

Ouchi shook the red wine in the goblet, took a sip, and showed a shallow smile:

"You know my other identity."

Li Polo's eyes flashed and he also laughed:

"You want to persuade me to join Manchester United?'

Ouchi nodded:

"Manchester United is the most successful team in the history of the Premier League, with the largest fan base in the world, and its media exposure is not inferior to Real Madrid. In contrast, the club's financial resources are by no means comparable to Valencia. As long as you agree to join, you will

He can become the top superstar with the highest weekly salary in the entire football world."

Li Polo raised his knife and fork noncommittally and slowly cut the steak on the plate.

Just listen to the other person continue to say:

"I know you will resent them for not finishing in the top four of the league, so they will miss the Champions League next season. But they are still fighting for the Europa League. As long as they win the final, they can qualify for the Champions League."

Lee Polo nodded, of course he knew that Mourinho would lead the Red Devils, which was full of injured soldiers, to the final victory. Seeing that he was wavering, Ouchi struck while the iron was hot:

"Compared to the demanding Guardiola, Mourinho's requirements for players are relatively simple, and you are undoubtedly a good match for his tactics. He has always wanted a center as powerful as Drogba. You are undoubtedly the best

Suitable candidate.

Are you talking about Ibrahimovic? After all, he is very old and has been seriously injured this season. He cannot play a core role anyway, right?

While chewing steak, Lee Polo listened to him describe the future, and even tried to persuade him based on the head coach's personality: "Mourinho and you are both confident and even arrogant people. You will definitely sympathize with each other!"

But he secretly shook his head.

[No, you don’t understand, a truly arrogant person will never play with another arrogant person!]

[I'm afraid that if I get crazy, I will piss Mourinho off to death!]

This private banquet did not achieve any substantive results.

Neville was not too disappointed, because he had long known that neither Lee Polo nor Barnett behind him were easy to deal with.

Although he wants to use the influence of the head coach to take a shortcut, it is impossible for the players to hand over the big move so easily.

Even if Lee Polo really decides to join Manchester United, his agent will continue to bargain with the new club to maximize his own interests!

In today's football market, emotional tendencies are the least important factor.

If someone continues to talk about his "Erhuang Dream" or "Ersa Dream", it must be because the other teams have given him too little!

The 6 days of preparation time passed quickly.

It was not until May 26, with only one day left before the King's Cup final, that Lee Polo reappeared at the Patna training base.

After more than half a month of recovery, physical fitness coach Dias was originally very worried about his weight. However, when Li Polo got on the scale, Dias had some doubts about his professional knowledge:

"Why have you lost half a kilogram?"

Li Polo patted his abdominal muscles:

"As a top superstar, can you not have this kind of self-discipline?"

Zachariah glanced at the bruise on his thigh and curled his lips disdainfully, but did not prick it.

After all, I once secretly swore that I would never argue with Brother Polo again!

"Lee Polo will not be included in the starting 11. This is the decision of the coaching staff.'

At the pre-match press conference, Gary Neville announced the lineup, and Mina suddenly appeared at the center position. Regarding the media’s questions, the head coach’s answer was very frank:

"Of course I know what impact Lee Polo's absence will have on the team, but we are a team and will work hard to overcome the negative impact.

What's more, in the league, we also defeated Barcelona without him starting, so we have reason to be confident in tomorrow's game!'

Probably because he spoke so smoothly, no one from the more than a hundred professional media outlets in the audience reacted:

[Although Lee Polo did not start the game he was talking about, he came on as a substitute and was the one who decided the final outcome with a winning goal!]

May 27.

At the Calderon Stadium in the capital, the final of the Copa del Rey was ushered in.

As Ouchi said, even without Lipolo, Valencia can compete with Barcelona.

The pressing pressure that the Bat Legion has always insisted on is the nemesis of passing control. Unless Barcelona can return to the peak of the Dream Team, they will not be able to get the ball comfortably under the opponent's crazy running and pressing.

After the game started, the two sides directly entered into a hand-to-hand combat with real swords and guns without any probing.

In the 5th minute of the game, Iniesta made a pass from the left. Neymar overtook Jones from the outside and shot past Alves' palms!

Unfortunately, he exerted a little too much force, and the football spun and flew out of the goal, causing more than 20,000 die-hard bat fans to break out in a cold sweat. Valencia quickly retaliated, and Figuli failed to force Alba on the right.

Parejo could only pass back. Captain Parejo made a cross pass. After Perez's transition, he found DePaul on the left. The latter's half-high ball passed Mascherano's header and was headed by Mina.

!

It's a pity that Mina is not Li Polo after all. This header was a bit weak and was hugged tightly by Ter Stegen.

In the 22nd minute, Parejo hit the crossbar with a 25-meter long shot. Valencia missed an excellent opportunity to take the lead, filling the entire stadium with regretful laments.

But 6 minutes later, Messi and Suarez hit the wall and cooperated, allowing the former to successfully reach the top of the penalty area. Faced with Van Dijk's full marking, even the Argentine ball king felt huge pressure and kept his foot on the ground.

The arrow was pinned down by Alves.

In the 33rd minute, Valencia got a corner kick opportunity. Rodrigo made a pass from the left. Van Dijk failed to hit the pass due to Pique's interference. Jones, who was in the back, directly headed the ball into the stands.

Although both sides played a good offensive, when faced with shooting opportunities, neither msn nor Mina, Feguli and Van Dijk were able to score.

Until the 42nd minute, perhaps because it was about to enter halftime, or perhaps because of a decline in physical fitness and concentration, Barcelona made a small mistake in the midfield pass, and Busquets sent the football to Perret.

Si's feet.

The Bats deputy was obviously stunned for a moment, then lifted his left foot and sent out an outside instep arc.

DePaul moved forward with the ball knowingly, and Rodrigo set up the side to attract Roberto's defense, allowing the former to concentrate on challenging Mascherano one-on-one.

The battle between the old and new generations of Argentinian players decided the winner in just one second:

Mina reached for the ball in the middle, but Marco did not attack immediately, giving DePaul the opportunity to shoot from outside the penalty area.

With a little spin, the football drew an elegant arc in Barcelona's penalty area and finally jumped into the upper right corner of the goal! 1:0!

Li Polo, sitting on the bench, applauded his teammates!
