Chapter 365 Getting Shot While Lying Down


"Mr.

Mancini, Manchester City was eliminated from the Europa League by Sporting Lisbon, but Southampton defeated Sporting Lisbon 3-1 in the semi-finals and avenged Manchester City.

What do you think?"

a reporter asked with a smile.

It looked like Manchester City was begging Southampton to help them vent their anger.

"I have no opinion.

The competitive environment we face at Manchester City and Southampton is completely different.

There is no comparison."

Mancini answered without hesitation.

The subtext is that we are in the Premier League and they are in the Championship.

I don't pay attention to them at all.

"There is really no comparison.

The favorites to win the Premier League were eliminated, but the English Championship team successfully advanced.

How can we compare?"

The entire press conference hall burst into laughter.

Even though Mancini was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel angry.

Fortunately, a month ago he was still gloating about Ferguson being slapped in the face by the media, so he almost made matters worse.

Now he is fine.

Coincidentally, he has also enjoyed Ferguson's treatment.

But for the proud Italians, this is more like a humiliation.

But the reporter obviously didn't intend to let it go.

It's not easy to create some topic.

If they are not good at using it, then they really shouldn't be called paparazzi.

"Let's use comparable comparisons.

In the three major cup competitions, the League Cup, the FA Cup and the Europa League, Manchester City were all eliminated, but Southampton either had the last laugh or reached the final.

What do you think?"

Mancini was obviously angry now and snorted coldly, "I told you, I don't have any opinion."

He has a better temper, at least he didn't lose his temper like Ferguson did.

Because he knew in his heart that these reporters were just waiting for him to get angry.

However, when the reporter asked about Southampton for the third time, Mancini finally couldn't help it anymore, stood up angrily, said a harsh word, and left the table angrily.

"Southampton, Southampton, just wait and see.

We will go to the Premier League next season and see what they can do."

The implication is that Southampton, which you keep talking about, is playing tricks in the English Championship and Cup.

But when it comes to the most brutal competition in the Premier League, they are not as good as Manchester City.

When Mancini's harsh words at the press conference appeared on the football news through TV stations, the executives sitting in Yang Huan's office were immediately dissatisfied.

Have you ever spoken like this?

Why did we at Southampton provoke you?

If you want to refute reporters, there is no need to step on us, right?

"This time I was shot even while I was lying down," Yang Huan said with a wry smile and shook his head.

"Mancini is a guy who hasn't secured his position as handsome man yet, so what right does he have to comment on others?"

"That is, we will play in the Premier League next season and see if we don't kill them Manchester City."

"It's better to beat them until they are full of teeth."

"It's not that we haven't played before.

Manchester City lost to us in the cup last season, but they were not convinced."

Everyone was talking to each other, but no one was angry.

It would be too cowardly to be completely angered because of something Mancini said on TV.

Most of the people took these remarks as a joke and just listened to them.

"By the way, are Gareth Bale and Modric's agents here?"

Yang Huan looked at the time.

The two parties made an appointment at 15 o'clock in the afternoon.

It was almost time now, but no one was seen yet.

When Ron Gurley saw Yang Huan looking at him, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Modric's agent called just now and said that something had to be delayed temporarily, but Gareth Bale's agent called but didn't answer the call."

After hearing this, Sun Yue laughed and said, "It's still the same old trick."

The same technique was used by Russell when Yang Huan planned to introduce Ibrahimovic from Barcelona.

To put it bluntly, it is a means of negotiation.

Modric's agent is Zdravko Mamic, the vice-president of Dinamo Zagreb.

Southampton has dealt with him several times before and has developed a good relationship with him.

In recent years, Croatian football has emerged with a number of good stars.

Southampton has successively introduced rookie center back Jedvaj, frontcourt attacking genius Halilovic, and midfielder from Dinamo Zagreb.

Genius Kovacic.

All by the hands of Mamic and Pini Zahavi.

Gareth Bale's agent is the old British agency Stegrou.

This company represents more than 500 players all over the world, and they have been Bale's agents since he was sixteen years old. , they were the ones who took Bale from Southampton to Tottenham Hotspur.

The chairman of this company, Jonathan Barnett and David Manas, are both well-known vampires in European football circles.

Yang Huan had been mentally prepared for a long time.

The two major agents were both famous and difficult to negotiate.

Especially Jonathan Barnett.

"What is the reaction from the outside world now?"

Yang Huan asked with a smile.

Since people like to show off, let them do it.

There is no need to be angry.

If he really wanted to be angry over such a trivial matter like sesame seeds and mung beans, Yang Huan would have been pissed to death long ago.

Because companies of all sizes under his command are engaged in business negotiations almost every day, what kind of negotiation techniques have I never seen before?

"No reaction."

Sun Yue shook his head, "But I heard that Manchester United had contacted Tottenham Hotspur and wanted to bring in Gareth Bale, but there was no specific offer, and Manchester United definitely couldn't come up with that much cash. ” Now Manchester United is heavily in debt and is planning to reorganize its debt.

I am afraid that it will not be able to spare so much cash and will have to take out a mortgage.

Southampton's offer is not low, and what is even more attractive is the cash deal, which Manchester United cannot match.

Peter Kenyon, who had never spoken a word, sighed sadly after hearing this.

"Manchester United finally realizes the losses after selling Cristiano Ronaldo" Everyone immediately looked at Peter Kenyon.

The former Manchester United CEO shook his head and smiled bitterly: "David Gill's operational ability is pretty good, but his vision is very poor, even worse than Ferguson."

"How do you say it?"

Nicola Cortez couldn't help but curiously asked.

He is also the executive chairman of Southampton Town, so he is quite interested in this.

"As we said before, professional football has ushered in a new era, but there are still quite a few people who still look at football in the new era with the thinking and vision of the past, just like the entertainment of stars.

Development is an irreversible trend.”

"Around 2009, the three most popular superstars in the world were Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaká and Messi.

Among them, Kaká was limited by his position, coupled with the overall decline of AC Milan and Serie A. , Therefore, the two most popular superstars at that time were Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.”

"Many fans say that there are no superstars in professional football now, and they are not as good as in the 1990s and early 1990s.

In fact, it is just the opposite.

There are many, many stars now, because with the rise of the Internet, the ability to create stars is better than it was in ten or twenty years.

I don’t know how many times better we were before, and our football tactics are so many times more rigorous than before.

How could we not have superstars?”

Everyone nodded in disbelief, saying that today's stars are far inferior to those in the past is just a hooligan's statement.

Because you can't argue with it.

We can’t travel through time and space, let’s have Guan Gong fight Qin Qiong.

"If you take away Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, today's professional football is more prosperous than in the 1990s and early 2000s, with more and brighter stars and more intense competition."

This statement by Peter Kenyon is interesting.

But I have to admit that the stars of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are indeed too dazzling.

It's so dazzling that it makes countless fans mistakenly believe that today's professional football talents have withered.

"I still remember that when he was selling Cristiano Ronaldo, Ferguson told David Gill that Cristiano Ronaldo was worth at least 150 million pounds.

At that time, David Gill thought this was impossible and ridiculous, so he They offered £80 million and Real Madrid agreed.”

Everyone nodded again.

This matter has also been reported by the media, so it is not a secret.

"Ferguson may seem stubborn, but he is actually not complacent.

He could have been in charge of Manchester United for twenty or thirty years.

Without the ability to advance with the times, that would have been impossible.

His vision was very vicious, and he could see through the core at a glance. ”

"That is, if Real Madrid wants to compete with Barcelona's Messi, it must buy Cristiano Ronaldo.

It can only be him."

"This is the only option, even if you introduce Kaka."

As a midfielder, Kaka's goal scoring has always been a weakness.

To put it bluntly, the most fascinating thing about football is scoring goals.

The vast majority of new fans don't care about how effective your tactics are or how effective they are.

They only focus on one thing.

Who scores more goals Therefore, when Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi increase their goal scores, they are actually increasing their own reputations.

This swipe directly put both of them into the ranks of super football stars.

What is the most exciting news for Southampton fans in the past year?

Goals from Ibrahimovic and Drogba The two top centers are constantly scoring goals in the English Championship, FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League, competing crazily.

Today you score one, tomorrow I score two, and the day after tomorrow you score a hat trick.

In this back-and-forth battle, the media was all over the place, and the fans were also following in the carnival.

The only regret is that the English Championship has less influence.

If it were in the Premier League, it would be haha "Florentino himself knows this very clearly, so let alone Manchester United's offer of 80 million pounds, even if it is 100 million or 200 million pounds, as long as he can afford it, he will agree because of his worth.

The higher it was, the more astonishing the impact would be, and at that time £150 million was exactly the limit that Real Madrid could afford.”

"It can be said that David Gill's stupidity in this transfer cost Manchester United 70 million pounds in vain."

After Peter Kenyon's explanation and analysis, everyone couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"Then why do you say that Manchester United suffered heavy losses after selling Cristiano Ronaldo?"

Nicola Cortez thought of the question just now.

Peter Kenyon nodded and smiled, "Because after Manchester United sold Cristiano Ronaldo, its commercial value has not increased but decreased in recent years.

If it were not for the overall influence of the Premier League in recent years, Manchester United may not be able to survive now."

After everyone heard this, they all looked at Peter Kenyon curiously, wanting to hear his thoughts.

"Ferguson has a vicious vision, but as a head coach, he thinks about problems first from a football perspective, so he decided to sell Cristiano Ronaldo.

This directly caused Manchester United to become leaderless from the perspective of the entire club's marketing."

"If Manchester United is compared to a crown, then Cristiano Ronaldo is the brightest jewel in the center of the crown.

Without this jewel, the crown may still be a crown, but it has become less eye-catching and has lost its The core value.”

"It can almost be said that after selling Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United's commercial value quickly fell from super first-class to first-class, while Real Madrid relied on Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká to directly go from the quasi-first-class during the Calderon period to even It was second-rate, but it transformed into a super first-rate, on par with Barcelona in the Grand Slam.”

The shopping mall is like a battlefield.

As the commander of Real Madrid's star team, Florentino's vision, methods and courage are quite outstanding and amazing.

On the contrary, Manchester United under the leadership of David Gill did, as Peter Kenyon said, lose the opportunity to become a super-class team, which can't help but make people feel regretful.

"Gareth Bale has undoubtedly given Manchester United a hope.

As long as it is operated properly, he has the hope of reaching the influence and commercial value of Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008, so Manchester United will want to get him."

"Well said" Yang Huan nodded with a smile.

Many of Peter Kenyon's ideas coincided with his.

Only Mr.

Baldhead, who is so familiar with Manchester United and has unique insights into football marketing, can say such a thing.

"It's a pity that Manchester United is now heavily in debt and I'm afraid they are no longer qualified to compete with us."

Sun Yue laughed and ridiculed Manchester United.

"As long as Manchester United does not get rid of the heavy debt crisis for one day, it will be difficult to return to the peak of 2008 and 09.

Chelsea was originally on the right path, but now Abramovich has made a U-turn midway, Arsenal and Liverpool can Regardless, Manchester City has yet to find a business direction, and the team is full of internal problems.”

"In the next few years, the Premier League will be leaderless and a mess.

This is our opportunity for Southampton to suddenly emerge."

Peter Kenyon said this eloquently, and his expression was indescribably excited.

His bright eyes seemed to see a bright future. 16841d6su9h10605424gt:
