"When Zhang Yang played for Marseille, I had the opportunity to bring him to Chelsea. Unfortunately, I missed that opportunity. This is also the thing I regret most during my tenure as Chelsea head coach. Otherwise, Chelsea would have won the Champions League trophy." Mourinho was quite regretful in his words.

This immediately made the reporters on the scene crazy?

What does this mean? Is Mourinho going to coach Manchester City? Or is the madman sending an invitation to Zhang Yang? Considering that Mourinho just coached Inter Milan, it is impossible for him to leave the Nerazzurri at this time, the media prefers the latter.

Whether it is Inter Milan or AC Milan, both teams have the habit of introducing stars with the same city rivals. Although Zhang Yang only played for AC Milan for one season, he still has a great influence in the hearts of Milan fans. What's more, Zhang Yang himself is a superstar and one of the best scorers in football. If Zhang Yang can join Inter Milan, he can not only enhance the team's strength, but also severely attack the arch-enemy rivals in the same city. Inter Milan President Moratti is absolutely willing to do this.

Mourinho's words really made the Chinese media very excited. If Zhang Yang goes to Inter Milan, it would be a good choice. Inter Milan has a large number of fans in China, and the number of these fans is definitely much larger than that of Manchester City. In China, the number of fans in AC Milan and Inter Milan is quite large. Even some AC Milan fans have complicated emotions about Zhang Yang's "possible joining" Inter Milan. They are neither willing to happen, but they also think that it is best for Zhang Yang to leave Manchester City and join the giants again.

They cannot understand Zhang Yang's dream of creating a legend in the era at Manchester City. In the eyes of fans, players should play in giants, and this is the most correct way.

Because Mourinho's words involved Zhang Yang, the Chinese media responded very quickly. Almost that night, news broke on the Chinese Internet that "Morrinho invited Zhang Yang to join Inter Milan, and Dad Moratti was going to take action."

This news appeared in Inter Milan, but the title shows that the poster's excitement is beyond words.

For some reason, after saying this, the next day, before leaving Manchester and returning to Milan, Mourinho "overturned" his comments yesterday in an interview with the media.

"I have never said Inter Milan wants to introduce Zhang Yang. I said I want to become his coach. This is because I accepted the invitation to be the coach of the "Ronaldo Friends Team". Zhang Yang is a friend of Ronaldo and will definitely attend the match between the "Ronaldo Friends Team" and the "Ziedane Friends Team".

Then, Mourinho said something else that made people speculate too much, "Of course, no head coach doesn't want any star like Zhang Yang..."

The Times also focused on Mourinho's return to England to watch Chelsea's game against Manchester United. "...The most special one is back. He just took him in Manchester for two days and caused a storm. Obviously, Scolari would not like some of the words his ex said, and Manchester City would be vigilant. Although there is no evidence that Zhang Yang has a connection with Inter Milan, which in history has great influence before success? Zhang Yang came to Manchester City from AC Milan last summer, which was explosive news in itself..."

Because it is now the winter break, this has made people even more talked about this matter.

Manchester City Club responded immediately, "...Zhang Yang is a Manchester City player. We also think that Mr. Mourinho's words were out of praise for Manchester City No. 10 and had no other meaning. In fact, as far as we know, Zhang Yang was very happy at Manchester City, and Manchester City fans had nothing to worry about."

On January 17, 2009, Manchester City played at home with Vigan Athletics, which was the 22nd round of the league.

Manchester City won Vigan Athletic 2-0 at home, and he scored the first record for Manchester City in the first half, which was also his 21st goal in the Premier League this season.

Manchester City won Vigan Athletics, which is not big news. The focus of this game happened during the halftime break.

During the intermission, Zhang Yang came out of the locker room before his other teammates. He came to the sidelines and walked towards the reporters on the sidelines. He picked up the microphone from a reporter and delivered a speech.

This is also Zhang Yang's refutation of the media's rumors about him leaving Manchester City in the past two days. Speaking of which, Zhang Yang was both a little amused and unhappy about Mourinho's dragging him into this transfer scandal.

"Every transfer period, there will be some rumors about my future. I didn't need to say anything, but I think it's still necessary to say something. Manchester City's current performance is very good, and I don't want this good situation to be affected... I'm very happy at Manchester City, yes, I'm very happy here, I won't go anywhere!" Zhang Yang said loudly.

His words aroused a huge cheer from Manchester Municipal Stadium.

"I came to Manchester City, and I have my own dream here. Yes, this dream is to achieve great things with this team! I enjoy my life and games at Manchester City, and I also believe that we will achieve brilliant success!"

Zhang Yang also expressed that he hopes that the fans will support the team more, and he and his teammates will hand over a good report card to everyone at the end of the season!

Zhang Yang's speech at this halftime break was a big deal in English football and European football history, and later looking at this history, which was a big deal for Manchester City club.

His words expressed his confidence in the future at Manchester City, which made fans feel at ease. In addition, there is another advantage, that is, Zhang Yang's statement also played a great role in continuing to expand his strength. Especially when Manchester City's performance continued to maintain a good momentum under the leadership of Zhang Yang.

However, in addition to Zhang Yang, Manchester City has other players who have also been tempted by some other European clubs.

Juventus expressed interest in Modric. As a young international in Croatia, Modric has attracted the attention of many giants in the European Cup last summer. In the transfer to Manchester City, Modric's performance was even better. Zhang Yang is a great contributor to Manchester City's outstanding performance, but this is inseparable from the outstanding performance of players such as Modric!

According to Italy's "The Whole Market", in addition to Juventus, Roma also favors this midfielder.

In addition, there are many chasers for Wright Phillips. Although the English winger was only swept out by Chelsea last summer, Wright Phillips' performance this season is quite eye-catching. The main pursuit of Wright Phillips is the Premier League team, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool, and even Manchester City's arch-rival Manchester United hopes to get this England international.

In addition, Manchester City's central defender, Belgian Kompany, also attracted the attention of the giants with his outstanding performance. It is said that Ferguson is interested in this powerful central defender, and AC Milan also hopes that he can strengthen the team's defense line.

Regarding these transfer rumors, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes concentrated on refuting the rumors: "I'm glad that someone is interested in my players, which shows that our results are very good. However, I want to tell everyone that Manchester City will not leave, at least, those players named by the media will not leave!"

Manchester City Club Chairman Alfaim even explained Manchester City's attitude in the transfer market in one sentence, "Manchester City will not sell people because of money. You all understand this principle."

This is very arrogant, but the fact is that Manchester City is rich. Unless the players themselves are clamoring to leave, they will not be able to sell the main players of the team. In addition, Alfaim has a certain amount of capital to say this. Strictly speaking, Manchester City is not a real grassroots team. They need money, people, software, and hardware. The difference between them and those giants is only brilliant achievements. The brilliant achievements are created by people. Now they are on the road to creating a brilliant history. Now, the team has excellent performance and high morale, and it is impossible to sell the main players. The players probably won't have the idea of ​​leaving at this time.

Of course, the words of Manchester City coach Mark Hughes still expressed two meanings. One is that Modric, Wright Phillips, Kompany and others who were "named" by the media will not leave the municipal stadium. The other is that some players who are unstable in the team may be cleansed by the team.

On the third day after the league with Vigan, Manchester City's cleanup of redundant staff began.

The official website of Manchester City Club announced that the team's English scorer Vassel transferred to Aston Villa for 500,000 pounds. Three seasons ago, Manchester City got Vassel from Aston Villa for 2 million pounds. Vassel is also a star trained by Aston Villa's youth training camp. Returning to Aston Villa this time is a good result for the 29-year-old England scorer who has become the fifth striker at Manchester City.

Vassel left, and another frustrated man, Bozinov, has a relatively bleak future at Manchester City. After half a season, the Bulgarian scorer's performance in limited play opportunities is really average, which also makes Mark Hughes, who still has hope for Bozinov, no longer able to tolerate the Bulgarians.

Of course, Mark Hughes's attitude is also related to the club's senior executives' statement that they will use funds to continue to enrich the front line this winter.

Manchester City's goal is Hunter Lar.

Mark Hughes is quite interested in this Dutch center, because there is really no top center in Manchester City's current lineup. Zhang Yang is not a center in pure sense. He is more like a forward, and Robinho is a forward who roams the wing. Therefore, Mark Hughes is very eager for Dutch center.

Ajax originally wanted to make this deal with Manchester City because the Premier League nouveau riche was willing to pay 40 million euros. This is definitely a sky-high price in today's economic crisis! The two sides almost hit it off. In the eyes of many media, it was only a matter of time before Hunter Larl joins Manchester City. The media has even regarded Hunter Larl as the benchmark transfer in the Premier League and even the entire European in this winter.

However, in the transfer market, as long as both parties do not have the final signature, everything will have variables, which is true.

The biggest reason is that Hunterlaer doesn't look down on Manchester City at all, and he only has Real Madrid in his heart.

The contract between the player himself and Real Madrid has even been agreed: the contract period is 5 years, the annual salary before tax is 6 million euros, and the transfer fee is 18 million euros fixed for 4 million euros.

However, this price is really not attractive in front of Manchester City's 40 million euros price!

Of course, the role of the player's personal intention in the transfer is also obvious. Seeing that Hunterlade was determined to go to Real Madrid, Ajax had to prepare to sell Hunterlade to Real Madrid when he felt sorry for the 40 million euros he was about to get.

Faced with the fact that the player himself and Real Madrid have promised a lifetime, Ajax had to propose a new price: 20 million euros fixed + 7 million euros floating.

Real Madrid said it could not accept this price.

At this critical moment, Hunterlaer himself made a concession and agreed to reduce the annual salary of nearly 6 million euros before tax to 3.8 million euros, and compensate Ajax for the difference. In the five-year labor contract signed by Hunterlaer and Real Madrid, the annual salary was also fixed at 3.8 million euros.

The reason why Hunteral is willing to make this huge concession is because he has always regarded becoming a regular player in Real Madrid as the highest ideal in his career as a professional player, and he has also used the word "dream" many times in his interviews and presentation speeches.

On January 23, Real Madrid announced that it would bring Dutch center Hunteral from Ajax to Real Madrid at the cost of £20 million and £7 million in floating capital.

Once this transfer was announced, the media immediately became lively.

Manchester City was willing to spend 40 million euros to buy Hunterlaal, and even almost successfully robbed people from Real Madrid, which aroused the vigilance of more wealthy families. Although after the transfer market last summer, they had long experienced Manchester City's "not playing by the rules" style of spending money completely, they still cannot accept this behavior now.

In the eyes of many wealthy families, Manchester City is even more disgusting than Chelsea back then. This is a bad guy who may disrupt the rules of the game!

Fortunately, Hunterlaer refused Manchester City's offer, which made many wealthy families, including Real Madrid, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huntral's behavior is worthy of praise, which interprets the true meaning of football. Football is not a slave to money. Football players have their own pursuit of dreams!" Ferguson, who had long disliked the arrogant behavior of Manchester City clubs, praised Huntral.

Arsenal head coach Wenger, Ferguson's archenemy, also stood in the same trench as Sir Ferguson, this time, "Manchester City's behavior should be resisted. They may give people the illusion that football players are born for money, and this is obviously wrong! Hunterlaer did a good job."

Hunterlaer became a 'hero' inadvertently, which became the most talked about story in this winter transfer window so far.

Nouveau riche is always easy to arouse others' annoyance. After Abraham acquired Chelsea, he spent countless money to expand the team, making Chelsea the most annoying team in the Premier League. However, with the recent "rise" of Manchester City, the title of the most annoying team in the Premier League has changed hands, and now Manchester City has replaced Chelsea as the most annoying team in the Premier League.

The whole Manchester City team was very angry about the statements made by the media and some football giants. You said that joining Manchester City is to become a slave to money. What does this mean? Doesn’t it mean that we are all slaves to money?

As Manchester City's flagship star, Zhang Yang immediately jumped out to express his dissatisfaction with his teammates. "Some people just can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour. Manchester City is rich. However, modern football is unimaginable without the support of money. I remember that Real Madrid always waves checks to buy people, and they buy people a lot more expensive than normal prices. Why no one says Real Madrid is not? Instead, they blame Manchester City!"

After firing a shot at Real Madrid, Zhang Yang also expressed his determination to enter the Champions League next season on behalf of the indignant Manchester City's "Multinational Forces" to the end of the season.

“No doubt we are on the right path now, we are very motivated, and at the end of the season, our fans will give us applause because we will be totally on that set goal.”

However, Zhang Yang does not deny the fact that Manchester City is now very hostile. He also agrees that Manchester City has replaced Chelsea and has become a team that many people hate.

"We have replaced Chelsea's past roles," Zhang Yang said without hesitation: "In the away game, you can feel the hatred on the court, and no one wants us to succeed. Chelsea also encountered the same thing before, until they won the league championship, and this hatred disappeared, and we will be the same. We must win the championship to make people stop hating us. After we have achieved good results now, I feel that the attitude of the fans has changed."

"Manchester City has a way to shut up critics. The only way is to win the championship. Just like Chelsea, after Mourinho led the team to win the Premier League championship for two consecutive years, Chelsea immediately established a certain fan base." Zhang Yang's eyes shone brightly when he said this. This is not so much his response to the bad environment the team is receiving, but rather his interpretation of his dream at Manchester City.

Two days later, in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Manchester City faced Derby County away. Zhang Yang made a pass and shot in the game, helping Manchester City eliminate their opponents. They also reached the top 16 of the FA Cup in the 2008/2009 season.

However, in this game, Manchester City received a bad news, that is, the midfield defensive player, French veteran Marklele left the court with serious injury. After the game, the team doctor also told the team a very bad news that Marklele was seriously injured. Conservatively estimated that he would have to leave the court at least for three months.

Needless to say, the importance of Marklele to the whole team is largely because Marklele's star offensive group can focus on attacking without distraction in the front because Marklele's excellent interception role in the midfield ensures the team's defensive quality.

Now, Marklele is seriously injured and will be absent for more than three months, which also means that Marklele will almost bid farewell to the rest of the season. This will be a huge blow to the entire Manchester City team.

"Marklelai said goodbye to the season with serious injury, Manchester City faces a huge crisis!" - After the game, the Daily Mail reported on the front page that Marklelai would be absent for three months after being seriously injured.

Other media also expressed their views on the huge impact of Marklele's injury on Manchester City.

The most intuitive performance is that the English bookmaker quickly adjusted the odds of Manchester City entering the top four in the league. Obviously, they also realized the impact of Marklele's absence on this team.

The Manchester Guardian also expressed a pessimistic view. They even said that in Manchester City, there are two people who are truly indispensable. One is Zhang Yang, so there is no need to say more, and the other is Marklele. Moreover, neither of them has a suitable substitute. Zhang Yang's super strength makes no one able to replace him, so there is no need to say that. The Manchester Guardian said that Manchester City did not provide Marklele with spare tires in the midfielder position, which is the biggest mistake. German veteran Harman on the bench is old and has long passed his peak period. It is a fantasy to expect Harman to make up for Marklele's vacancy.

Indeed, Marklele's serious injury put the entire Manchester City team in a crisis, and even some players realized the importance of this French veteran to the entire team at this time.

Manchester City must find a replacement for Marklele right away.

Mark Hughes fell in love with Dutch midfielder De Jong who played for Hamburg.

De Jong is an Ajax youth training product. He is now playing for the Bundesliga Hamburg team. This Dutch international is not tall, but his defense is very fierce, his physical fitness is outstanding, and he also has certain assisting skills. De Jong is a versatile midfielder with fierce fighting and tenacious style. He is one of the most powerful midfielder monsters in the CM series. After changing to play as a midfielder, De Jong showed good potential in both offense and defense.

There have been news that Manchester City's city rival Manchester United coach Ferguson is very interested in him and wants to buy him and train him to become Roy Keane's successor.

The reason why Sir Alexander did not take action is that the contract between De Jong and Hamburg will expire in one year. According to the contract, in half a year, Manchester United will only need to spend 2 million pounds to get this midfielder. If you can complete the transaction with the least amount of money, the Sir Alexanderer will naturally be more happy to wait for half a year.

The media have always believed that there is a tacit understanding between De Jong and Manchester United. The Dutch strongman is almost a Manchester United player. De Jong is waiting for half a year to join the Red Devils.

However, now, because of Mark Lele's serious injury, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes has set his sights on De Jong, which has changed everything.

The Sun reported on the entire process of Manchester City chasing Dutch champion De Jong.

On January 25, Hamburg Club received a fax from Manchester City Club asking if it was willing to sell Dutch star De Jong.

The Hamburg clubs were surprised and willing, they were so willing! Because De Jong was unwilling to renew his contract with Hamburg, and the contract between De Jong and Hamburg stipulated that in half a year, any team only needs to reach an agreement with De Jong to buy out the tough guy for two million pounds, which means that the Hamburg team will lose a lot. You should know that the market estimate of De Jong is now about 10 million pounds. This also means that if the Hamburg team cannot sell De Jong this winter, but wait until the summer to allow other teams to buy out De Jong, they will lose at least 8 million pounds!

The problem is that Hamburg has always wanted to sell De Jong, but it can't be sold. The entire football world knows that De Jong has a buyout clause of 2 million pounds. Since we know that we only need to wait for another half a year, we only need to spend 2 million pounds to buy De Jong. Who would be willing to spend a lot of money to introduce De Jong now? It's only half a year to wait for half a year. No one will be too busy.

But, now, for the Hamburg Club, things seem to be turning around.

Because everyone on earth knows that this person who is not short of money has come to ask for the price.
