I'm 1.9 meters tall and weigh 200 pounds, can I pull the hem?

News articles are being released one after another.

Manchester United suffer a 1-2 home defeat to Aston Villa after seven winless matches!

Liu Yang makes his comeback, scoring his second goal!

"A Super One-Stop Service! He Made Kaka Dizzy!"

Henry: Liu's ball control is a lot like mine.

Carragher: Manchester United's current defense can't even stop Neville as a striker. If I were 20 years younger, I could have kept a clean sheet against Liu Yang!

"If you can't beat them, buy them? Manchester United may make an offer for Liu Yang!"

The number of comments, likes, and shares skyrocketed.

- [No way? Liu Yang really single-handedly defeated Manchester United?]

- [This individual performance felt even more exaggerated than against Arsenal! Manchester United may be weak, but their midfield solidity still surpasses Arsenal's!]

[A 20-year AC Milan fan is moved to tears; Liu Zhen looks so much like Kaká back in the day! Can Milan buy him?]

[Serie A, now in dire straits, shouldn't get involved; Liu Yang's transfer fee won't be low!]

- [Yeah, you know what, aside from Arsenal's buy-back clause, the only club that might be able to afford Liu Yang in the winter transfer window is Manchester United, with their deep pockets and money!]

What nonsense is Carragher spouting now? He played his entire career for Liverpool, and the number of goals he scored for Liverpool is less than the number of own goals he scored against Liverpool!

London.

Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal narrowly defeated relegation-threatened Newcastle United 1-0 at home thanks to a header from Laurent Koscielny.

The chain, which had fallen off in half, was barely put back on.

With a long sigh of relief, Wenger finally calmed his racing heart and came to attend the press conference.

He calmly answered some routine questions.

A reporter raised his hand to ask a question.

"Mr. Wenger, it is said that Manchester United are very interested in Liu Yang, who scored two goals in the just-concluded match at Old Trafford, helping Aston Villa defeat Manchester United."

Do you think this will increase Manchester United's interest in him? If Manchester United makes an offer, will you use the buy-back clause to compete?

What the hell?

Manchester United are interested in Liu Yang?

What is that old man Ferguson up to?

Or perhaps it was Van Gaal's intention?

Why haven't I heard any news at all?

Wenger felt his heart starting to feel uncomfortable again.

……

On the bus from Manchester back to Birmingham.

The atmosphere within the team remained cheerful and harmonious.

Grealish nudged Liu Yang beside him.

"Hey buddy, let's go to the bar and have some fun tomorrow! The next game isn't until a week later!"

"We've won four straight!"

"We haven't lost a single game since you joined the first team!"

"We now have 19 points!"

"If we double that number before the end of the season, we can stay in the Premier League!"

"We should definitely celebrate!"

"I'll treat everyone tomorrow; I'll invite any teammates who are free."

Seeing Grealish's enthusiastic invitation, Liu Yang had no reason to refuse.

If Grealish gets drunk and passes out, I'll have to take him home.

Liu Yang suddenly remembered the Best module he had drawn last night.

"Dude, this thing actually works!"

……

British pubs are large indoor spaces with a wide variety of entertainment options.

You can play bowling, billiards, shuffleboard, and darts.

They can also go clubbing and sing karaoke.

There are even video game arcades.

Of course, the most important element is indispensable—alcohol, and drinking games.

The British enjoy drinking.

Even high-ranking officials like Jim Hack and Humphrey would take a glass of sherry during their weekday lunch break.

In the early hours of the morning, the sky over Birmingham was already beginning to lighten.

Liu Yang, who had drunk an unknown amount, steadily supported Grealish, who was like a rag doll, and hailed a taxi.

I declined the invitation from the slightly tipsy blonde, blue-eyed lady at the next table.

The lighting in bars is most likely to confuse people.

When the little sweetheart they brought back went back, she was likely to turn out to be an old hag.

At another table, a curvaceous young woman offered to take in Grealish, who was incoherent.

Liu Yang very righteously refused on his behalf.

We must protect the purity of our brothers.

What if your brother Jack is still...?

……

It was already morning when Liu Yang got home.

Aside from being tired from playing all night, he wasn't drunk at all.

"Thank you, Best!"

Liu Yang crawled into bed with the idea of ​​catching up on a full day's sleep.

Garde gave the team a day off so no one would disturb his sleep.

……

"Buzz—"

The cell phone on the bedside table vibrated, followed by a piercing ringtone.

Still half asleep, Liu Yang picked up his phone and glanced at the screen.

I suddenly came to my senses.

The call was from head coach Garde.

"Hey coach, what's up?"

Liu Yang glanced at the time; it wasn't even noon yet, and he had only slept for four hours.

Gard's tone was curt on the other end of the phone.

"Liu, Manchester United has made you a transfer offer."

"The higher-ups... have accepted it."

Liu Yang was stunned.

No, Manchester United, are you serious?

……

Liu Yang wasn't the only one stunned; Garde was also stunned when he learned that Villa had accepted Manchester United's offer for Liu Yang.

He angrily went to Almstadt.

"What's going on? Didn't they say they wouldn't sell Liu Yang even for fifty million euros?"

Almstadt's face was filled with helplessness.

"But Manchester United's offer is a down payment of 60 million euros, plus a whole bunch of installment clauses, bonus clauses, and a share of the profits from second transfers..."

Gard was stunned for the second time.

How many?

"I haven't made a decision yet, but the boss has already indicated that they want to accept this offer."

Gard was speechless.

Aston Villa's owner, Lerner, is struggling with his business and is eager to sell the club to raise cash.

Encountering a boss like this...

But Gard still didn't quite understand.

Although Liu Yang's performance was phenomenal, is it really appropriate to ask for such a price for a young player who has only played for the senior team for a month?

Normally, shouldn't we observe the situation more and make a move closer to the end of the transfer window?

Or should we start with a low price and then discuss it further?

Do Manchester United's management understand football?

……

There were quite a few major news stories in the football world from the end of 2015 to the beginning of 2016.

Chelsea announces the dismissal of Mourinho, with Hiddink taking temporary over.

Bayern Munich announces Pep Guardiola's departure at the end of the season; Carlo Ancelotti to succeed him.

Manchester City announces manager Pellegrini will not renew his contract; may they pursue Guardiola?

Real Madrid announces the dismissal of Benitez; Zidane temporarily takes over as manager of the reserve team.

However, there wasn't much news about transfers.

Reports indicate that Shakhtar Donetsk's rising star, Teixeira, is close to joining the Chinese Super League; he has scored 25 goals in 22 appearances this season.

Arsenal officially announce the signing of Basel midfielder Elneny for €500 million plus installments.

Arsenal officially announce the recall of German youngster Serge Gnabry from his loan spell at West Bromwich Albion.

Wolfsburg officially announces the termination of contract with Danish striker Bendtner.

Under these circumstances, the headline "Manchester United makes formal offer for Aston Villa star Liu Yang, transfer fee may exceed 60 million euros" exploded like a bomb in the football news.

Has Manchester United gone mad?

- [Liu Yang is good, but he's only been playing for a short time. Why the rush to sign him?]

If it gets flooded later, it'll be too late to cry!

- [How about Manchester United fans crowdfund to raise 20 million for Wenger to buy back Liu Yang!]

Manchester United's CEO, Ed Woodward, thumped his chest proudly.

Manchester United fans scoffed at his performance, while Chinese Red Devils fans gave him the nickname "San Dezi" (a derogatory term implying a lack of understanding or ability).

"I may not know that much about football, but I do know about stocks!"

"Liu's joining will greatly expand the Chinese market!"

"This will absolutely boost Manchester United's commercial value significantly!"

"He may not be a Chinese citizen, but so what?"

"A few years ago, there was a Chinese-American player in the NBA who suddenly had a breakout season."

"To be fair, he only played at a star level for that one month; after that, he was just an average NBA player."

"Even though he's not a Chinese citizen, he's still amassed a huge following in China!"

"Jersey sales even surpassed those of Kobe and LeBron at one point!"

"Moreover, Liu's performance during this period has been phenomenal."

"Perhaps even disregarding his commercial value in the future, his competitive ability will justify the huge transfer fee we paid!"
