Imagine the two biggest clubs in the world, Manchester United and Chelsea, turning their back on some very good players. An abrupt intervention, unannounced, from the manager of the great club Barcelona. It is like you start a game and suddenly the rules are changed on you!
Players the Two Wanted, Manchester United and Chelsea
We really do not know the names of the players Manchester United and Chelsea wanted to purchase; maybe those were very gifted ones. They may have been the extra goals and defensive savvy that could have stood to back those teams, or maybe they just were all-around stars.
A Big Deal for Manchester United and Chelsea!
The Unexpected Winner (or Villain?) Barcelona Manager Somebody stopped the deal. Managers really are similar to soccer coaches. Whether or not they actually choose who plays will depend on the club, but generally, managers organize the way the team trains and how the tactics shall be employed. But who really knows why the Barcelona manager stopped the transfer?
What Next? For Manchester United and Chelsea
Whenever a team buys a player, it is a huge negotiation. They have to agree about the price with his club and with the player himself. That is not easy at all; sometimes they cannot even find players as good as those whom they were bidding for.
Authors Opinion
They will try to fortify their teams with other players. Maybe they will be back for the very same players or, perhaps, for other players of equal value. It is just like grabbing a toy and finding it has gone! You have to get another one! The world of football keeps changing, and clubs just keep trying to better themselves.
