Chapter Eleven: The End and the Beginning of an Era

Chapter 11 The End and Beginning of the Times

Shaq scored 12 goals in two games, causing a sensation in Spanish football. No star could have done this before him, whether it was Messi, Ronaldo, or Ronaldo, Stefano, etc. at his peak.

Shaq, who started writing records for La Liga in just two games, made the fans who originally supported Cruyff hesitate again. They once had top stars like Messi. They had been invincible for a period, but even so, they didn't think Messi could be compared with Cruyff, because the "godfather" used his football wisdom to plan the development direction of Barcelona for decades.

But now, a player who seems to be able to break the "Godfather" plan has appeared. Shaq, the third king of football in the world, has proved how magical his ability is in just two games!

What can such a Shaq bring to Barcelona!?

champion!

There is no doubt that Shaq will bring the championship trophy to Barcelona, ​​many championship trophys, and he may even create another era for Barcelona, ​​an era in which Barcelona dominates European football!

After two rounds of the Spanish League One, Barcelona fans' opposition to Shaq became much smaller, and the local media in Barcelona also sang hymns to Shaq. In 2 games, 12 goals, the strength of the World Football King is indeed against the will of heaven!

Although they still look to Cruyff, they don’t want to blame Shaq anymore. For a player who scored 12 goals for the team in two games... what else can you say?

Even if you don't support it... you can't scold me anymore!?

After two rounds of La Liga, the European continent started the European Cup qualifiers again. The new world champion and the defending European Cup champion England still have to start from the group stage.

Simon Grayson's successor was not beyond people's expectations. Legendary star Alan Hiller, who succeeded at Leeds United, took over his position and became the new coach of the "Three Lions".

However, even if the coach of the England team was replaced by Alan Hiller Shaker's position in the England team did not change at all. At most, in the 4-4-2 formation arranged by Alan Hiller for England team, Shaker is no longer the only offensive point. Alan Hiller reduced the team's dependence on Shaker.

Ben Parker, who was selected for the England team with Shaq, was selected for the England team after all, with Ben Parker transferring to the giants. His value, popularity, and reputation have all improved qualitatively, not to mention that he is also the main left-back when England won the world championship in the summer.

When Shaq and Ben Parker returned to London again, they gradually realized that the situation in England’s football has changed drastically. This summer... the changes in England’s football are really too big.

"Gunners" Arsenal has now become a big player in England!

"Little Fatty" Rooney finally left Manchester United, where he had played for fourteen years this summer, and joined the Gunners' Arsenal in a free transfer.

Add to Walcott, Barkley, Will Sher, Smalling, and young centre-back Sparks who transferred from Liverpool to the Gunners this summer for 23 million euros, Arsenal's number of players selected for England has reached as many as six players.

This summer, while the Gunners got Rooney for free, they also spent 70 million euros to buy people. Their goal this season is obviously to be on the Premier League championship.

Of course, Arsenal still has to compete with Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Leeds United, Liverpool and other teams, but they have seen hope this season. Just like Chelsea, Leeds United, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and other teams, when Shaq left Manchester United, the "Red Devils" had lost their dominance in the Premier League.

What's more, there were many stars including Ganso, Evans, Rivero, Krissettigue, Evans, Gareth Bale, Jose Angel, and other stars. These people were originally under Manchester United's contract and did not renew it. They just waited for what choices Shaq would make after the World Cup. As a result, they found that Shaq left, so they all followed.

If you continue to stay at Manchester United, there is nothing that is too great to win more championship trophys. There are more teams outside who are willing to provide them with high salaries, so naturally you will leave as soon as possible.

What made Manchester United fans even more frightened is that Giggs, who has coached Manchester United for two seasons, has also resigned. Giggs is going to take over the position of Wales head coach. No one can say anything, but his successor Diego Fran, a Uruguayan, still needs to prove himself.

Manchester United, which has lost a large number of stars, has also made several major moves in the transfer market. Ozil came to Real Madrid to make a comeback. Goze, Jovitic, Szesni, Sanchez, Kompany and many other stars have also come. If Fran can integrate these players well, the combat effectiveness of the "Red Devils" will not decline much.

However, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, Liverpool and other teams have invested a lot, and even the "Magpie" Newcastle has spent 60 million euros in the transfer market this summer.

In English football, after Shaq left, he entered the Warring States era overnight!

It is almost foreseeable that the four-year-long era when the "Red Devils" dominated European football. Since losing to the Champions League semi-finals with Leeds United last season, this time it has really come to an end.

However, Shaq's current position in English football is indeed unsightly, but he was just a little sad when he met his old friends such as Rooney, Jonny Hausen.

After taking over the "Three Lions", Alan Shearer has played two friendly matches, defeating Egypt 2:0 and losing to Turkey 2:3, mainly because the players are not very adaptable to tactical changes. After all, they are used to playing "Solar System Tactics" and relying on Shaq's strong personal ability to defeat their opponents. However, although the current England team still uses Shaq as the core, they are no longer playing "Solar System Tactics".

But no matter what, the world champion is the world champion. The English team, which has been ranked first in the fifa world ranking for four consecutive years, is still extremely strong in all aspects such as strength, confidence, and tactical literacy.

In the first game of Group C of the European Championship qualifiers, England defeated Israel with a score of 4:1 away, and Shaq once again continued his good form, staged a "big four joy" in the game, and tore the Israeli team's defense with his own strength.

After playing the national team, Shaq and Ben Parker returned to Barcelona and immediately welcomed the third round of La Liga opponent with the team... Sevilla!

Sevilla is one of the strong teams in the La Liga. In recent years, the league rankings have always been among the best. Last season, under the leadership of head coach Luis Enrique, he fought tenaciously to the last moment, winning the championship with 25 wins, 9 draws, 4 losses and 84 points. Although Real Madrid and Barcelona also scored 84 points, Sevilla won the championship because of fewer losses, which has broken the situation where Barcelona and Real Madrid took turns to be the banker in recent years.

Originally, Barcelona was also thinking about whether to let Luis Enrique lead the team, but after Rossell conquered Simon Grayson, the other head coach candidates were redundant. In this world... "Brutal Simon" is already the best head coach!

Although the "Solar System Tactics" is a bit monotonous in nature, it is nothing more than tactical cooperation around Shaq, but it looks quite good in actual use. It is very consistent with the taste of the Catalans in the game. The most important thing is that Simon Grayson can win the championship and many championships!

But no one expected that Simon Grayson, Shaq, Ben Parker, Rivero, Ganso and others would have a conflict with the "godfather" Cruyff, otherwise this summer's transfer market might become the most perfect summer transfer battle in Barcelona in recent years.

This season, although Sevilla lost the main talented central defender Batista, they also got 31 million euros from Barcelona. After all, Luis Enrique was born in Barcelona. Without harming the interests of the club, that is, when Barcelona gives enough transfer fees, no one can sell it. Anyway, with this money, he can buy more players with strength but no fame.

Although it can be seen through the video of the first two rounds of matches that Barcelona is very strong now, Sevilla has never thought of competing for the league championship this season, and they will be content with being able to perform in the Champions League. But Luis Enrique still feels that his team should have some chance to play at home this time.

But at the beginning of this game, Luis Enrique knew that he was wrong. Barcelona is very different from Barcelona in the past. Their ball control ability has not weakened much with the joining of the "Top Ten Stars". Instead, the speed has become much faster, especially the ability to accelerate suddenly has become stronger. With Ganso, Fabregas, and two people who control the rhythm, as well as Shaq, Vasquis and Salave, three attackers with outstanding explosive power, Barcelona already has the ability to quickly increase the rhythm of the game in an instant.

Facing such a Barcelona team, Sevilla is really a little...can't stand it!

Sure enough, it was only five minutes before the game started. After Shaq received a pass from Salavi, he dribbled the ball from Sevilla's right corner to the bottom line. Suddenly, he passed the ball back to the middle penalty area without pause during the run. The pass was very difficult, but Shaq completed it very well.

Then... Sevilla everyone watched Ganso run to the pass route and pushed the ball into the dead corner of the lower left corner of Sevilla's goal without anyone defending!

The Pisjuan Stadium became quiet, and Sevilla's fans were all dumbfounded. The ball... just entered like this!?
