Football’s First Defender

The victory in the opening game is a good sign for the start of Liverpool's new season.

The new season of the Premier League, with the end of the opening game, also officially opened the curtain.

The Premier League this season is definitely an era of heroes competing for hegemony.

The six giants of the Premier League have been preparing for the entire new season before the start of the new season, and they have all carried out a certain degree of lineup reinforcement.

Even Tottenham, which has lost the absolute core of the team, used the 85 million pounds sold by Bale to buy powerful players in the transfer market, without the posture of a miser at all.

Tottenham did make a lot of money in the transfer of Bell, but in the end it was only equivalent to a big deal of one exchange for many.

The huge sum of 85 million pounds allows Tottenham to wave the money in their hands wantonly during the transfer window. Bought Brazilian midfielder Paulinho from Corinthians for 17 million pounds, Eriksson from Ajax for 11.5 million pounds Mela, 9.3 million bought defensive midfielder Kaboue.

It can be said that Bell's transfer and departure instantly raised Tottenham's relatively weak midfielder to a higher level.

In order to deal with the offensive vacancy brought about by Bell's departure, Tottenham directly spent 26 million pounds. In the competition with many giants, they introduced striker Soldado, who performed extremely well in La Liga last season.

As long as he can show his own strength, although Tottenham's striker will have some decline in strength compared with Bell, but with other supplements, Tottenham's overall strength should not decline much, and may even improve. right.

In the end, after several other rotation players left the team, Tottenham added Ziriches, a rotation player with certain strength like Chadley.

After a Bale sold for a sky-high price of 85 million pounds, and with Corker, Parker, Dempsey and other main and rotation players leaving the team, Tottenham's net profit in the transfer market did not exceed 20 million pounds. It can be seen that Tottenham are really trying to spend money to supplement the team lineup.

Among the six giants, in the past two seasons, only Arsenal and Tottenham have been squeezed out of the Champions League qualification zone. For the bonus and broadcast share of the Champions League, Tottenham is trying to maintain the strength of the team. And Arsenal also changed their previous style of saving money.

Maybe it's because the team's record in the past two seasons is not good, and the players can't sell the price anymore, or Arsenal really changed their minds and finally ended the embarrassment of not having a championship for many years.

In this year's summer window, Arsenal did not sell a core player, only Gervinho's 8 million pounds and substitute goalkeeper Mannone's 2 million pounds.

After that, Wenger, who has been searching for good attackers in the transfer market, refused to come to Arsenal, a team that did not qualify for the Champions League after many players he was optimistic about. Apart from the fellows Flamini and Sagueno, only one real transfer transaction has been completed.

That is, Arsenal bought Ozil, who will not be reused after Mourinho leaves the team, from Real Madrid at a record high price of 47 million euros.

But in any case, after such a transaction is completed, it will definitely be a huge supplement to Arsenal's team strength.

The team goal that Arsenal set before the game this season was directly raised to win a championship trophy, reach the top four in the league, and qualify for the Champions League.

The immediate goal of Tottenham and Arsenal this season is to qualify for the Champions League, while for other giants, the championship is the team's highest goal in the league.

Chelsea, which ranked fourth last season, may have brought back the team's meritorious coach Mourinho as the most important signing in the summer.

Mourinho, who "entered the palace for the second time", returned this time and was also appointed by Abramovich, who urgently needs to improve the team's performance.

The foundation of the Chelsea team is actually extremely good, it just needs a qualified coach to integrate the strength of the players.

In the summer, Mourinho did not "clean" the players after returning to the team. There were not many transfer operations for selling players. He did not sell any core players. Instead, he did it in the introduction of players. Targeted supplements.

At a price of 30 million pounds, winger William was bought from the "black shop" miners, and another 18 million pounds brought Schurrle from the Bundesliga to the Premier League. The introduction of subsequent players only focused on strengthening the team's rotation.

Eto'o, Mourinho's former favorite at Inter Milan, came to vote from Anzhi on a free transfer.

Then, thanks to Chelsea's rich player reserves, Mourinho recalled Essien, who was on loan to Real Madrid, and recalled young talents such as Lukaku and De Bruyne who were working hard outside.

After that, Mourinho devoted himself to the tactical transformation of the team, in order to allow Chelsea to form the competitiveness of the championship as quickly as possible.

And last year's runner-up, "Blue Moon" Manchester City, continues to be the biggest "big dog" in European football.

Tevez is not easy to use, so just sell it to Juventus at a low price.

Manchester City has never been shy about spending money. Even with UEFA's financial fairness investigation, it is enough to get a few high sponsorship fees from the "home" premium.

This year, Manchester City will continue to buy and buy in the transfer market. Navas, Fernandinho, Negredo, Jovetic, although there are not too famous superstars, but you can know that the player's strength is absolute by looking at the player's worth. not weak.

Fernandinho's 30 million pounds is definitely the top price in the midfield position, and the other players are also worth around 20 million pounds, showing that they are definitely the most powerful players in European football today. Manchester City is now not only starting, but even the bench is very strong, which is very enviable.

And the joining of veteran central defender Demichelis, who has been playing for a wealthy team, at a price of 4 million pounds can also inject a greater guarantee into Manchester City's defense.

This year's Manchester City is full of fighting spirit to regain the lost championship.

And this season, Manchester United, which is aiming to attack the defending champion, will be replaced by his Scottish fellow Moyes after Ferguson retires.

For the sake of team stability, Manchester United did not make much action this summer.

Apart from the retirement of Scholes, there has been no loss of players.

As for the introduction of players, it was only in accordance with Moyes' request that he bought his favorite disciple in Everton, midfielder Fellaini, to Old Trafford for 27 million pounds.

Being able to coach a very stable championship team, Ferguson left a valuable "legacy" to Moyes.

Except for the top five of Manchester United, after losing Ferguson, the mountain above their heads, they all have more opportunities this season to compete for the Premier League's highest honor.

In the opening game, after Liverpool took the lead in winning, the other five giants played in this round, except for Arsenal, who were upset in this game and lost to Villa at home, becoming the only giants that lost the chain, the other teams won easily. The absolute strength of the Premier League's first group.

The battle for hegemony in the Premier League in the new season has officially begun!
