Chapter 1104 Don’t you regret it later?
"...In the just-concluded quarter-finals of the Europa League, Leeds City got off to a good start at their home court. They defeated the visiting Royal Cathorn 2:0 in the first leg...Although Leeds City easily defeated their opponent at home, But head coach Tony Clark still said in an interview after the game that this does not mean that they can advance to the quarterfinals of the Europa League. Royal Cathorn is a strong team, and they will go to Leeds City for the second round. It won’t be easy to fight..."
"Real Caterun head coach Jean Osvaldo also said that losing two goals in the first leg away does not mean they have been eliminated from the Europa League... He is confident that he can lead the team to a comeback after returning to home. . 'This is football, anything can happen,' Osvaldo said..."
"Hulay scored twice again in this game, allowing his personal number of goals in the Europa League to quickly rise to five goals, and he has already approached Valentia, who currently ranks top scorer in the Europa League. Forward Nuno Alvarez, the Mexican striker currently has a total of seven goals in the Europa League... It took him nine games to score seven goals, while Jule scored in just three games Five goals..."
"Hulay's super efficiency in the Europa League almost shocked the entire Europe. Although the Europa League did not receive as much attention as the Champions League, after the game, major European media still rushed to report on Hulay's 'feat'. Some media Said that if he had not played in the Champions League first, but had participated in the Europa League from the beginning, then he should be far ahead of everyone in the scorer list now..."
"...Someone analyzed Hulay's performance in these three Europa League games and found that he actually did not get many opportunities, because his opponents still attached great importance to him. But despite this, he always Able to seize the few opportunities and complete the fatal blow...It is said that Hulay's outstanding performance has attracted the attention of other teams from Europe, including many giants..."
"As Julay continues to contribute wonderful performances in the European war, the name of the Kings of Madrid is also frequently mentioned... After all, they almost got Julay. At first, Julay rejected the Kings of Madrid and chose a Premier League relegation team. Many people have also criticized the idea of giving up the King of Madrid. With such a high-quality platform, choosing Leeds City is a gamble that is bound to fail. Xavi Sanchez, the Football Director of the Madrid Kings, also said that the Madrid Kings will not regret missing Jule... So I don’t know if he will still hold on. This point of view..."

“I think the media just doesn’t have a topic and is hyping it up, just for the traffic and popularity...”
"Yes, we, the Kings of Madrid, are not the only ones who missed Hu. Didn't Catalan United also miss it? Why not ask Catalan United if you don't regret it?"
"Besides, we already have Meili, why do we need Hu? The two of them are completely in conflict..."
When Melly walked into the first team locker room at the training ground, what he heard was several teammates discussing the recent news.
The latest news is of course that the media has once again "fried rice" - about the feud between Hulay and the King of Madrid.
Ever since the media knew that it was Julay who rejected the King of Madrid, they felt like they had found a treasure.
Whenever Hu Lai performs well, he will almost always be criticized by the media.
The Kings of Madrid are the top football club. While enjoying countless honors, there are actually many people who dislike them and take pleasure in discrediting them.
So after tireless media hype again and again, everyone has now closely linked the King of Madrid and Julay - but this connection may not be what the King of Madrid wants to see...
Every time Hulay performs well, many netizens and fans will appear on the Internet to make fun of news related to the Madrid Kings and ask the Madrid Kings if the club has any regrets.
To be honest, this approach is actually quite annoying. After all, even if the King of Madrid missed Julay before, it would not be polite to expose others' wounds. Moreover, over time, it will make those Madrid Kings fans or some passers-by have a bad impression of Hulay.
Although Hu Lai has never said this, in the end, the idols themselves must bear the responsibility for what the fans do...
Therefore, this topic is often discussed. At first, many people thought that the King of Madrid was a clown in this matter, but now fewer and fewer people think so.
Moreover, some passers-by and fans of the Madrid Kings believe that if Hulay's fans continue to do this, it will actually cut off Hulay's path to join the Madrid Kings. After all, does it do Hulay any good to disgust the Madrid King fans?
Does he want to play in Leeds City for the rest of his life?
As a professional player, how could anyone with ambition not want to join a top club like the Madrid Kings? Moreover, he himself has a fate with the King of Madrid. He initially rejected the King of Madrid because the King of Madrid could not give him a stable chance to play.
But when he matures, the Kings of Madrid will definitely have a place for him. At that time, if he loses the opportunity to join the Kings of Madrid just because the fans are so happy now... How regretful would that be?
Is there any team in today's football that can compete with the Madrid Kings, who have won ten Champions League titles?
Now that Madrid Kings fans are disgusted with Julay, will they still want their idol to join the greatest club on the planet in the future?
Judging from the performance of some players in the locker room of the Madrid Kings, it seems to confirm the thoughts of the Madrid Kings fans-the Madrid Kings players are somewhat resistant to Hulay because of repeated speculation in the media.
If he really transfers to this team in the future, he will definitely face a harsher environment than ordinary new players. Because neither the players nor the fans here...like him very much.
Unless he doesn't come to Madrid, then naturally there will be no such trouble.
Melly hopes that Hulay will not come to Madrid.
It's not a "conflict" as teammates said.
He and Hu Lai actually have no conflict. Although both men are offensive players, their characteristics are completely different.
Hulay is not the kind of player who needs to occupy the ball, so he and Melly can actually coexist.
However, Melly never refuted this statement. He hoped that everyone would think that he and Hu Lai could not coexist.
Because he doesn't want to be teammates with Hu Lai, he wants to be his opponent and defeat him.
Seeing Hulay's performance in Leeds City, Melly strengthened his inner thoughts - such a good opponent, using him as a teammate... how boring!
So now the more the media hypes that the Madrid King regrets missing Jule, the happier Melli becomes.
This is equivalent to completely blocking Hu Lai's way to join the Madrid Kings in the future.
I believe that with Mr. Sanchez’s temper and being so ridiculed by the media, he would definitely be even less likely to regret missing Hu Lai, right? Not only that, in order to show that he has no regrets, he will even resolutely deny all suggestions to introduce Hu Lai.

Xavi Sanchez is sitting in his office, opposite Louis Francis, the club's ambassador, retired star, midfield master, legend, and one of the former "Four Kings".
The once legendary player is now retired. However, Louis Francis did not leave the club after retiring. He was hired as the club's global ambassador, responsible for promoting the Madrid Kings Club.
At the same time, he is also responsible for some matters that are inconvenient for the club to come forward...
Just like what Sanchez wants Francis to do now.
"Louis, what do you think of the rhetoric in the media?" Sanchez looked at Francis and asked this question, trying to guess his true thoughts through the changes in Francis's expression. "Do you think we should regret missing Hu?"
Francis grinned at the old friend who signed him: "When you asked me this question, I knew the answer, Harvey."
Sanchez frowned: "Is it so obvious?"
"Of course. You refused to mention the Chinese boy before."
"Okay..." Sanchez nodded, "Let me ask another question: Do you think... we need Hu?"
"It's not very needed at the moment. But in the long run... we need him. Because Cerrados will not always be the king's sword - he will be thirty-three years old this year." Francis finished this sentence After speaking, he thought for a moment and added:
"Although we have Melli, we also need an efficient scorer. In fact, Hu and Melli do not conflict, because Hu does not need the ball, nor does he need someone to constantly feed him the ball. He is very rare. Players who can still perform well next to Melli and will not disappoint. Having both of them at the same time can upgrade our offensive firepower to the strongest in Europe.”
Francis said, and Sanchez nodded.
Sanchez seems to attach great importance to the opinions of this club's legend and once the number one superstar in world football.
"...But there is a very fatal problem." Francis wanted to laugh when he saw Sanchez like this, but he held back and raised a finger with a straight face.
When Sanchez heard what he said, a solemn look appeared on Sanchez's face: "What's the problem?"
"A matter of face."
Sanchez looked at Francis quizzically.
"Now there are rumors outside that we regret missing out on Hu. If we really introduce him, it will confirm those rumors - we really regret it. And you, Xavi, as the club's recruitment director, once expressed 'The Madrid king will not regret not signing anyone' In this case, signing Hu means that you have admitted your past mistakes. This is a big problem, Xavi.
After Sanchez heard what Francis said seriously, he laughed: "I thought you were talking about such a serious problem, but it turned out to be this...compared with the interests of the club, what is my face? Do you think I am?" Have you never been ‘slapped in the face’ in this position?”
Francis was speechless when he heard what he said. It was exactly what Sanchez said.
Even a football director as good as Xavi Sanchez, who is good at discerning people, will always make mistakes. He is famous for discovering super talents like Mellie Banega for the club.
But it doesn't mean that every transfer deal he makes is successful.
The Kings of Madrid bring in so many people and sell so many people every year. There are always people who perform poorly after coming to the Kings of Madrid and become "parallel imports." There are always people whose performance suddenly improves after leaving the Madrid Kings.
To exaggerate a bit, these can all be attributed to the vision of director of football Xavi Sanchez.
But in fact, how can there be so many so-called "slaps in the face"?
Players are a "commodity" with a very special nature. There is no qualification label or instructions for correct use.
There are too many factors that can affect whether a player performs well or poorly after coming to the team. For example, the team's tactical style, the player's personality, the cultural and dietary differences in different regions, or even simple luck... The vision of the transfer decision-maker may be the least important one.
But both the media and fans are accustomed to simplifying complex things. After all, this makes it easier to spread hype. If you analyze so many fans about why this player performed poorly, it is far less likely to attract more interest than saying "The famous transfer trader Xavi Sanchez made a mistake" in the title.
Therefore, if a new player performs poorly, everyone will habitually think that there is a problem with the club's transfer signings, rather than other problems.
Let’s take Hu Lai as an example.
Although Hulay is now out, Francis also supports Sanchez's original decision - for the Madrid Kings, Hulay is a talented young player, but it is impossible for him to play in the first team when he comes to the Madrid Kings. So even if the Madrid Kings sign him, they will rent him out.
As for whether Hu Lai's growth trajectory will be the same as now after renting out, it is completely unknown.
It is even possible that Hulay's growth after moving to the Madrid Kings is completely inconsistent with everyone's expectations of him, and is far from as dazzling as it is now.
So use Julay's current performance to prove that the King of Madrid's choice to give up Julay was wrong, and then ask the King of Madrid if he will regret it...
"Grand Commander" Louis Francis thought it was all a media hype.
Of course, there is no need for the Madrid Kings Club to regret not signing Jule in the first place.
"Actually, I have something I want to ask you for a favor, Louis." Sanchez said.
Francis was surprised: "Help?"
"Yes, help. I am helping the club in my personal capacity."
Francis was even more surprised.
He has an employment relationship with the club. If the club is handling matters, why should he help in a private capacity?
"I hope you can find an opportunity to contact Hu privately."
In Francis's doubtful eyes, Harvey Sanchez revealed his true purpose of coming to him. (End of chapter)
