Abramovich sat in the stands of St. Mary's Stadium.
His left and right positions are empty, and in the past is the team's CEO Ron Gurley.
Around his position, thirty bodyguards in black were scattered everywhere, causing many positions to be empty.
This is the pomp of the Russian rich!
But this dynamic is not small, in the crowded stands of the St. Mary Stadium, it seems like a pebble thrown into the ocean, not even a spray can splash, let alone attract the attention of the audience. .
Sitting on the hard seat, Abramovich cursed Southampton's bad stadium hardware.
But in my heart there is not without envy, jealousy and hatred.
At least, the home atmosphere in Southampton is surprisingly hot.
The game is about to begin, and the atmosphere in the stadium is getting more and more enthusiastic, especially when the warm-up band rushed into St. Mary's Stadium and swept the audience with explosive rock music, which ignited everyone's hearts. Passion.
He has to admit that Southampton is really good at creating a home atmosphere.
"Ron, why can they do so well at home? But our attendance has been declining?"
Abramovich asked Ron Gurley beside him with a serious face.
The latter was originally the deputy of former Chelsea CEO Peter Kenyon. After Peter Kenyon had a conflict with Abramovich, after leaving Chelsea, Ron Gurley took over as CEO. .
Because of this, he has always been very conscientious, and he has lingering fears for the boss who seems to be kind, but in fact likes life and death.
When asked by him, my heart trembled.
This question is not easy to answer!
"This is caused in many ways." Ron Gurley said ambiguously.
Abramović kept pressing, "Let's talk about it."
Ron Gurley pondered, "On the one hand, our style of play is really not pleasing enough. From the technical style of the players to the overall tactical characteristics of the team, we can't play a gorgeous offensive football."
This was established from the Ranieri period and reached its peak during the Mourinho period.
Even many later coaches, including Ancelotti, who broke 100 goals in the first season of coaching, could not break.
Abramovich has always had a knot in his heart.
He is eager for Chelsea to play brilliant offensive football, but he has been unable to do so.
"anything else?"
Ron Gurley thought for a while, "One more thing, I think it has something to do with the aging of players."
Seeing that Abramovich didn't say anything, he knew to continue.
"The aging of the players will inevitably lead to the rigidity of the team's tactical style. Without the smooth running that fans now appreciate, it loses the pleasing offensive, and our group of players are basically fans watching. Old faces that have been for many years lack freshness."
"The team's tactical style lacks freshness, and the players also lack freshness. Coupled with the gradual aging of players in recent years, the competitiveness of the team has declined year by year, which ultimately led to the low attendance rate of the team at home."
Abramovich still didn't say anything, looking ahead and listening silently.
"In fact, this is true in many fields, such as Hollywood."
"In Hollywood, a star will definitely have a sequel after making a hit commercial blockbuster, but usually the third one is shot, no matter how good the box office is, how much fans like it, the film company will not consider it in a short time. To shoot the fourth part, even if you want to shoot, you must replace the entire celebrity team with a new set of faces."
This is a commercial law in the field of movies, and it also applies to football.
Throughout Chelsea, this group of players in the team are basically old faces, and it is inevitable that they will be aesthetically tired.
Having said that, Ron Gurley looked at Abramovich hesitantly.
In the end, he still said it.
"In fact, Britain, or all fans who like the Premier League, are tired of the current Premier League situation."
"Before the rise of Chelsea, the Premier League was always controlled by Manchester United and Arsenal, so the rise of Chelsea almost triggered a major earthquake in Premier League football, and even European football, and the resulting momentum was amazing."
"But after we won the championship for two consecutive years, Manchester United returned, Arsenal declined, and the Premier League has become a game between Chelsea and Manchester United. Especially the semi-finals are monopolized by several powerful teams. Arsenal lacks ambition to win the championship. His ambition to be in the semifinals every year has aroused dissatisfaction and indignation from countless fans.
"After all, they are fed up with this old-fashioned drama."
"In this situation, they need the stimulation of fresh blood. Although Manchester City has appeared in the Premier League, Southampton is not as eye-catching as there is no League One, because everyone is looking forward to a scene. In the Premier League!"
"Now, the whole of England, the whole of Europe, and even the whole world are looking forward to one thing."
"That is, whether Southampton can really return to the Premier League, whether it can continue the money-burning game, or even challenge the status of a traditional super team, and even claim the Premier League championship!"
Speaking of this, Ron Gurley had to admire it in his heart.
In terms of promoting and marketing a brand concept, Southampton is really a very successful one.
They not only showcased their own brand, but also exported their own ideas, attracting countless resonant fans around them and paying attention to their every move.
Abramovich hadn't spoken all the time, sitting silently and listening.
It was not until Ron Gurley finished speaking that he hummed proudly and turned to look at Ron Gurley.
"They won't have such an opportunity!"
Chelsea will not allow it, Manchester United will not allow it, and neither Arsenal nor Liverpool will allow it.
Southampton has performed well this season, but there are already teams conspiring to dig their corners.
It is foreseeable that the better Southampton's performance, the more fierce the opponent's corner will be.
If Southampton does not have a good response, then their final result will be the same as all other mid-range teams, becoming a star processing factory for the top tycoons and being stepped on by them in the middle area of the pyramid.
Ron Gurley is also very clear that competition in the football industry is very cruel, especially the competition of capital.
To put it bluntly, a star is a scarce product, with a price but no market.
The most important thing for a powerful team is money. They have a huge advantage in poaching.
At exactly this time, Abramovich's phone rang again.
After that, Pini Zahavi smiled bitterly and said, "Roman, he refused!"
Abramovich stood up abruptly, grabbed the guardrail with one hand, gritted his teeth and cursed. He had the urge to drop the phone beside his ear, but he quickly calmed down and looked at Ron Gurley.
"How many odds do we have in this game?"
Ron Gurley doesn't know how to answer. Before a football match is over, who dares to win?
"The data given by William Hill, almost 94% of bettors bought us Chelsea, and we let the hemisphere."
Abramovich hummed and spoke to the phone again, "Furthermore, 50 million pounds. If he wins, I will give him two players for free. If he loses, he will sell Neymar to me! "
Speaking of Neymar, Abramovich's heart burst out uncontrollably.
He just failed in signings, but when he looked back, this damned League One team dug Neymar.
what is this?
Is this slap in his face?
Why did he take the trouble to drive the Eclipse into Southampton, just to hit the Chinese man in the face.
But now, the face was not beaten up, instead he slapped his face.
If he doesn't ask for it, he won't be reconciled!
"Roman, this..." Pini Zahavi thought this was crazy.
Abramovich refused to listen to him, "Tell him again, if you dare to gamble, you can bet, the conditions are good, and you don't dare to bet is a scam, that's it!" He just hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, he looked down and muttered, "Ancelotti, you better give me a big score to win this game!"
At exactly this time, the stadium lights dimmed.
All the lights in the audience were concentrated at one point and fell at the exit of the player passage.
A lively and beautiful girl, wearing a Southampton jersey, walked out of the player channel amidst the cheers of the fans and the focus of the lights.
Many young female dancers gathered around her.
But in this group of people, her innocence, her beautiful appearance, her tall and vitality all appeared so prominent.
"Who is she?" Abramovich was taken aback, the woman was so beautiful, so beautiful.
He swears that he has never seen such a beautiful woman in his life!
Even if he had never liked Eastern women, he couldn't help but look at him with a heartbeat.
Especially the lively vigor that exudes from her.
"She?" Ron Gurley looked at it attentively, "Oh, her name is Lin Yuner, the female star who has become popular recently, she seems to be a Korean, it is said that Yang Huan holds the red."
When Yang Huan smashed Aston Martin in South Korea for her, it was also published in major British newspapers.
"Really?" A faint color flashed in Abramovich's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
He is tempted!
…………
…………
"Master Huan, Mr. Abramovich has made the final offer, a transfer fee of 50 million pounds. Once we win, Southampton will let it go. If we lose, Mr. Abramovich will let you Choose two players from Chelsea."
"Free transfer!"
When Pini Zahavi said this, everyone around was shocked.
This is no longer a bet, this is simply a sigh of relief.
Is it because Yang Huan didn't let him stop the Eclipse into Southampton, so he wanted revenge?
"He is so confident?" Yang Huan also felt that this condition was a bit outrageous.
Pini Zahavi was dumbfounded, and he thought it was too ridiculous.
But there is no way, he is just a microphone, conveying it.
"Mr. Abramović also said that if you dare to gamble, you can bet. If you are not satisfied, you can talk about it. If you don't dare to gamble, it means..."
He didn't dare to say the last sentence, fearing that Yang Huan would turn his anger on him.
When Yang Huan heard this, he felt angry.
I dare not bet?
Damn, there is no such thing in this world that I dare not bet on!
I was forced to the door of my house by others, and there were so many people around watching. If I didn't dare to bet, how shame I would be?
"Okay~EbookFREE.me~ I bet!"
Yang Huan suddenly stood up again.
"However, I have one condition!"
Pini Zahavi saw Yang Huan let go, and felt relieved, "The conditions? Just say it!"
"Although they are the Premier League team and we are the League One team, I don't think we are weaker than them at all. So, you tell Abramovich, I will accompany you no matter how big your bet is, but we don't need him to let him , We are at home, we let them, even if we lose in a draw!"
Yang Huan said this proudly, but Nicolas Cortes on the side was shaken.
What a great advantage, Master Huan doesn’t want to, but instead gives it to the other party. This...
But he is also a man of spine.
There is a saying that it is good to lose, not to lose.
In this case, if you concede defeat, then it is really intolerable. ()
