That's right!
After all, football is a sport played by 11 people.
Even if Fly has cheat-like boosts and his strength surpasses all other players, he still needs the help of his teammates.
Otherwise, he can't play against 11 people by himself.
Leaving aside distant examples, let's just mention the Dream Three Barça, the 'Cosmic Team' that dominated for a few years.
If it weren't for Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, and Busquets.
Relying solely on Messi, no matter how much he carries the team, it would have been impossible for Barcelona to achieve such tremendous success.
For a top player to achieve honors, they must have a supporting squad.
Messi was able to win the sextuple and quintuple at Barcelona because he met Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, and Busquets.
Cristiano Ronaldo was able to win three consecutive Champions League titles at Real Madrid because he met the 'Ceremony Midfield'.
Top players achieve greatness together; there's never a situation where one leaves and the other can still keep getting results.
Without Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, and Busquets, even if Messi evolved into a super number 10 in 2019 and put on incredible performances, he still couldn't withstand the 4-0 comeback by Liverpool.
Without the 'Ceremony Midfield', even with a hat-trick comeback against Atletico Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo still couldn't withstand his teammates not scoring a single goal in the Champions League knockout stage besides himself.
It can be said that even Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, once they leave good teammates, basically miss out on top club honors.
Fly believes that he still has a considerable gap compared to peak Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Even if he takes off in the future and becomes the player with the strongest individual ability since the sport of football was born.
He would still need the help of his teammates.
It's just that his requirements for teammates aren't as high as Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's...
But low requirements don't mean just anyone can team up with him.
For example, if Fly were to team up with players at the level of the National Football Team, Fly would be out of reach of top team honors for his entire life.
No matter how good he is, he could only guarantee that the team could barely survive in the Premier League.
Striving not to be relegated each season would be good enough; nothing else could be expected!
After careful consideration, Fly gave his response:
"Boss, I can convince my Dad about the transfer fee; my father should support my career."
"But as for the wishes of those players, that will be up to you, Boss, to convince them."
"After all, there's only one week left until the transfer window closes. Is there still time?"
Upon hearing this, Arsène Arsène Wenger felt a weight lifted off his chest, and his subsequent words even sounded a bit cheerful to Fly:
"No problem, I was waiting for you to say that. I already sent people to contact those players a long time ago, and they are basically personally not against it. As long as the transfer fee is in place, we can proceed immediately."
"Don't worry, it can definitely be sorted out before the transfer window closes."
Hearing that Arsène Arsène Wenger had already been in contact, Fly couldn't help but feel speechless.
Wait, what's going on?
I hadn't even told the Boss my thoughts yet, and it turns out the Boss was already working on it behind the scenes?
Where did he get that confidence?
After all, contacting them is useless without money!
Fly was immediately a bit bewildered.
He probably never expected that Arsène Arsène Wenger had already been planning this matter in his mind from the moment he promoted him to the first team.
It could be said that everything was ready, only lacking the final piece!
As long as Fly had the idea of asking Dad Li for money.
Arsène Arsène Wenger's signing plan could be implemented immediately.
Having a plan beforehand naturally makes things faster.
After hanging up the phone, Fly thought for a moment and still dialed the number he hadn't contacted for a long time.
After a few 'ring-ring' sounds, the other end of the phone was picked up.
Fly and the person on the other end of the phone remained silent simultaneously.
Ultimately, it was the impatient Fly who spoke first: "Dad, are you doing well?"
Originally, Fly planned to first show some care for his old man, let him feel his son's filial piety, and then slowly get to the main point.
Unexpectedly, Dad Li knew this unfilial son Fly too well, and interrupted this "deep father-son affection" atmosphere as soon as he spoke:
"You stinky brat, spit it out if you have something to say, get to the point. What are you dilly-dallying about?"
Being 'broken through' by his old man's words, Fly felt a bit awkward, but still thick-skinnedly offered his concern.
After listening for a couple of sentences, Dad Li became truly impatient and directly exposed Fly's purpose:
"Alright, stop the nonsense and speak. What do you want by calling your old man?"
"Don't tell me you're asking me for money. Your wife earned a lot from her concert a while ago. You two certainly aren't short on money now, don't treat your old man like an idiot!"
Upon hearing this, Fly felt speechless and wished he could just hang up the phone.
Hold it in, hold it in. I still need the old man to pay, can't make him angry.
Finally, Fly couldn't be bothered to beat around the bush with Dad Li anymore and directly stated his purpose.
Originally, Fly had prepared for rejection and was ready to use his persuasive skills.
If that didn't work, Fly was already prepared to play the 'indirectly save Arsenal' card, calling his Mom directly then and having her step in to convince Dad.
But unexpectedly, Dad Li agreed directly after hearing Fly's request:
"So, after all that, it's just about this? Alright, got it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the call being hung up came from Fly's ear.
Well, that's truly Dad's style, as decisive and efficient as ever.
Fly secretly gave a wry smile, but he was still quite grateful for his Dad's support for his career.
Putting everything else aside, although his own Dad always verbally disliked him, when he needed help, he was truly unambiguous!
"Honey, what did Dad talk to you about?"
Fly immediately felt a gentle touch from behind.
Using his hand to turn Taylor's head, Fly leaned in for a kiss.
Taylor didn't resist, quietly enjoying her boyfriend's intimate gesture.
"Nothing much, it's just that our Boss wants to sign players for Arsenal, but the club doesn't have extra transfer fees, so I went to ask my Dad for some."
Upon hearing this, Taylor nodded gently, then opened her blue eyes like a Persian cat's, asking doubtfully: "Honey, these signings won't affect your playing time, will they?"
Taylor, being an American girl, originally didn't know much about football.
But ever since Fly joined the Arsenal youth academy, she started consciously paying attention to European football.
Although she is still just a half-understanding 'fake fan', she is very aware of her boyfriend's situation.
At least she is very clear about one thing: her boyfriend is not a regular starter yet; currently, he is just a substitute who is very high in the pecking order.
Therefore, she had to ask clearly if these signings would pose a threat to her boyfriend's position.
After all, her watching football was simply to watch her boyfriend play on the field.
She didn't care about anyone else at all!
Even this football club, Arsenal, if it weren't for her boyfriend, she wouldn't pay the slightest bit of attention.
Now that she knew the club was going to sign players, her primary concern was whether Fly would be affected.
If he would be affected, Taylor would definitely advise Fly not to ask his Dad for money.
After all, where is the logic in paying out of your own pocket only for it to end up affecting your own playing time?
