A brief review of Arnold's joining Real Madrid incident, I think what Arnold did in this matter should be said to be not a big problem!

Modern sports, including football and basketball, it should be said that it is not appropriate to only talk about loyalty. Fans have reason to ask players to be loyal. After all, fans are the real parents of players, but one problem that cannot be solved at present is that under the current business model, there are still problems between players, team bosses and management between players. In today's highly commercialized team, senior management decisions are often cold-blooded. Even if you are a meritorious captain or a core player, as long as you decline or are not suitable for the coaching system, the team will still sweep you out without hesitation!

The most classic example is Gerald, the former team spirit of Liverpool. It was a hot topic when Gerald was going to Chelsea. In the end, Gerald stayed at Liverpool, which became a good story. However, Gerald was unable to retire at Liverpool in the end because he had some disagreements with Rodgers in his philosophy back then, and Gerald finally left sadly!

I believe that Gerald would feel very wronged before leaving, and Arnold should have said that he had definitely referred to Gerald's departure incident and felt that it was not impossible to stay in the team in the future, but loyalty cannot be used as a meal. At the end of his career, once you say that your salary expectations are not in line with the club, the club will sweep you out without blinking! So I might as well choose a place I want to go more at my peak than being kidnapped by loyalty in the eyes of fans, because when I was nemesis, the fans couldn't help! The same principle is also the recent de Bruyne!

This is one of them. In addition, according to the recent news integration, Arnold actually won’t get much more money when going to Real Madrid’s comprehensive salary plus signing fee than when he is currently in Liverpool. So we can basically rule out that Arnold left for the sake of money. It can only be said that Arnold still has a greater ideal. After all, Real Madrid’s platform is still higher than Liverpool. Although Liverpool’s current strength is not worse than Real Madrid, in terms of platform size and influence, Real Madrid is still higher. Good men are determined to be in all directions and people go to a high place. Arnold’s approach is not bad. As for whether Arnold wants to win the Golden Globe Award, let’s not talk about it. He just wants to challenge himself on a higher platform and go out and take a look. It is completely understandable from the perspective of personal career development!

The third point is that Arnold did not say he deceived Liverpool. This is not like Inter Milan's Skriniar. Under the guise of affirming loyalty to renew his contract, Skriniar finally chose to run away, get a high signing fee, and set up a club. This kind of behavior that has no bottom line, is not kind and dishonest, and is full of money, is naturally not ashamed of the fans! But Arnold did not. In fact, let’s reason about the current results. Arnold may have wanted to leave Liverpool for more than a day or two. The club has negotiated with him for a lot of time to negotiate a contract renewal and choose to sell him for money, but in the end he still chose to leave him until the end of the contract, so the issue of not leaving a transfer fee for the team. Obviously, you can’t say that Arnold is not kind enough in his life!

In the end, Arnold's days left behind helped Liverpool win the Premier League championship this season and made absolute credit on the way to win the championship. The club chose to stay with him while the contract was difficult to renew, and received high returns. Therefore, both sides were very happy. Arnold also wanted to participate in the Liverpool championship parade, which proved that he was still open-minded. If it were others, such as Qian Duoduo or Skriniar, they would have been covered and still marched with you and that!
