Chapter 549: Only one, no semicolon


"Master Huan, all of this group of guys are ill-intentioned and have bad intentions!"
After attending the dinner and returning to the hotel, Peter Kenyon, Ron Gurley, Sun Yue and others all followed Yang Huan to the presidential suite with invincible sea view. Mobile phone reading
As soon as they sat down in the living room, everyone began to chat about what they had encountered at the dinner party.
"Oh?" Yang Huan was a little amused, knowing this was the case a long time ago, "let's talk about it."
Peter Kenyon and others are also funny.
"David Gill talked to me about Matic and Manchester United want to use him to strengthen the midfield."
Yang Huan couldn't laugh at this moment.
The position of the midfielder is indeed too critical, especially in the modern tactical system. The midfielder plays a pivotal role.
Regardless of the Matic's tall and magnificent, but the footwork is good, the passing is very stable, the defense is also strong enough, it can be called a strong barrier in front of the Southampton defense line.
Tony Cross is another style. Although his defense has improved a lot, he is still not good enough, but his skills, organizational skills, and passing ability are quite good, and he can even get in and out from time to time. Shoot.
In Southampton, the presence of Tony Cross and Matic, two players, enables Bielsa to adopt different midfield configurations according to different opponents to deal with different situations.
If you sell Matic, you can really make a lot of money, at least 20 million pounds will not run.
But the question is, where can I find someone to fill Matic’s vacancy?
These years, in the midfielder position, there are very, very few players that can provide solid defense, stable shot ability, and even a little organizational ability.
Schneiderlin, who was sold to Tottenham Hotspur in Southampton, has made great progress, but compared with Matic, there is still a gap.
Besides, Manchester United is now Southampton's opponent. How can they weaken themselves and strengthen their opponents?
"It seems that we have to renew the contract with Matic and sign a new contract!"
Peter Kenyon and Ron Gurley looked at each other, and both smiled and nodded.
Southampton's current finances are pretty good. The annual membership fee of the Saints Fan Club alone generates 100 million pounds. Coupled with the sponsorship income, Southampton's business income reaches more than 200 million pounds.
If you get a generous share of broadcast fees in the Premier League this season, plus the game-day income of the stadium, you should be able to reach about 350 million pounds.
This is quite eye-catching in the entire European football scene.
Looking across Europe, there are only a handful of teams with an annual income of over 300 million pounds!
Of course, Southampton also spends a lot of money, such as player salaries and team bonuses.
In European professional football, there are mainly two different ways of playing.
One is the way Barcelona and Real Madrid play. They only pursue results and don't care about the team's finances.
There is another way of playing Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Juventus. They pay attention to financial health. In terms of transfer fees, they try to spend every money on the blade and live a life carefully.
It's hard to say which of these two different gameplays is better or worse, you can only say that each is good or bad.
The former gameplay piles up stars and produces fast results, but the financial pressure is huge. Once the boss behind the scenes tightens their money, the team will immediately have problems and the results will be greatly affected.
And in recent years, with Platini's fiscal health policy in Europe, this type of team has also been restricted.
The second kind of gameplay is slow. It depends on years of accumulation and occasionally burns money, but once a blockbuster transfer fails, the team will have to take a breather for a year or two to get over.
But usually a team with this kind of gameplay will have a very complete set of long-term plans. It is very clear and pragmatic to set every goal, such as Arsenal, do not sign, do not win, and grab the top four every year.
You can accuse Arsenal of not being aggressive, but you can't deny that Arsenal are quite healthy and excellent in terms of performance stability, investment, and the club's financial situation.
Southampton is the first gameplay.
In Yang Huan's view, the so-called self-financing is nonsense.
There are only two or three teams in Europe that can be self-financing, not including Real Madrid and Barcelona.
For Southampton, with so many stars and so many achievements, it is impossible to be self-financing, and even if it accumulates for a few years, there is no way to get ahead in the Premier League.
The reason is very simple, you have to be responsible for your own profits and losses, once your players perform well, they will be dug immediately.
In the end, a self-financing team can only become a star processing factory for the local tyrants.
Of course, it's okay to explode once in a while.
Since there is no way to be self-sufficient, what should I do?
Looking at Southampton from the perspective of running a company, there is no need to worry about debt. It is a good thing to have debt. It proves that the bank thinks you are reliable, so they are willing to lend you money.
Therefore, the real problem is not to eliminate debt, nor how much money you owe the bank, but how to control the risk of debt within a reasonable range.
The way to play with Real Madrid is to introduce superstars, make every effort to expand their influence and brand value, increase the bank's trust in me, and the commercial value of the Real Madrid brand, and then go to the bank to borrow money and then introduce superstars.
In this set of gameplay, the team's performance is not important, who is the head coach, is not important, and who is the star is not important.
What is important is how much Real Madrid’s golden sign is worth and the team’s financial income.
In other words, Real Madrid's debt repayment ability.
This is the reason why Florentino has been able to introduce the stars again and again.
Bank money can never be borrowed and spent!
Yang Huan is not as outrageous as Florentino. He has his own long-term plan, which is to build Southampton into one of the best super giants in Europe and the world in the shortest possible time!
To do this, you have to build a strong lineup of stars.
Relying on the identity of the traverser and the powerful scouting system in Southampton, it can be said that the Saints have come to this day very quickly and very successfully!
But then, Yang Huan will stabilize what Southampton has achieved so far.
The transfer strategy is also very pragmatic. It’s best to stay and raise the salary. If I can’t stay, then I will do everything possible to maximize my interests and try my best to extract the potential value of the players.
In Yang Huan's view, Matic could keep it!
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ferguson is going to retire, and no one knows what will happen to Manchester United.
Therefore, let alone whether Manchester United intends to dig out Matic, even if he has done enough, Matic may not be tempted.
Southampton is now second in the Premier League standings. It's a good time to participate in the Champions League next season.
Instead of going to Manchester United to take a risk, it is better to stay in Southampton, at least there are plenty of opportunities!
"Just now, Russell talked to me about Neymar and I can see that Barcelona is determined to win him!"
When Yang Huan talked about this, the corner of his mouth raised.
Russell is really...
how to say?
Not courageous enough!
If the price he just offered was more bold, perhaps Yang Huan would be really tempted.
Anyway, if you can't keep it, it's better to get the higher price.
"Sanchez also took the initiative to talk to me about Neymar." Ron Gurley laughed.
"Oh?" Yang Huan suddenly became interested, "What is the attitude of Real Madrid?"
Ron Gurley glanced at his colleagues and laughed: "Real Madrid is also very interested in Neymar. They offered a high price of 80 million euros, and listening to Sanchez's tone, it seems that we can talk more."
"80 million?"
When everyone heard this number, their eyes flashed suddenly.
Three years ago, when Southampton introduced Neymar, it only paid out more than 20 million euros, but now it is as high as 80 million. Is it not exciting?
"Eh eh eh, you guys, can you not be so petty one by one?" Yang Huan waved his hand, interrupting the brain and YY of these guys, and said with a smile.
"Isn't it 80 million? It's worth all the fuss about you?"
Everyone suddenly laughed, one or two.
Master Huan, you are rich and powerful. In your opinion, 80 million is a piece of cake.
But we are different. We are miserable wage earners, and 80 million is given to us, which is simply delicious and spicy.
"Actually, Master Huan is right!"
Peter Kenyon also spoke at this time.
"Just now, Nike’s senior vice president of Europe also talked to me about Neymar. Although he didn’t say anything, I can see that Nike is a sponsor of the Brazilian national team and a sponsor of Neymar, but our The sponsor is Adidas, and the sponsor of Barcelona is Nike!"
Peter Kenyon was born in Nike and Umbro. He has a clear understanding of sports equipment brands sponsoring stars and teams, and even influencing star transfers.
After what he said, everyone present suddenly felt that the things inside must not be that simple.
"Also, I checked, Nike’s sponsorship contract with Barcelona expired this year, and the original contract, Barcelona can only get about 30 million euros per year, which was considered very high when the contract was signed five years ago. High, but now, among the top giants, it is low."
Everyone thinks it makes sense.
Thirty million euros in jersey sponsorship is indeed low for Barcelona.
"There is another issue involved here, and that is Messi!"
Peter Kenyon clearly grasped the key issue.
"As the leading star of Barcelona, ​​the boots worn by Messi are Adidas. Nike has always hoped to get back Messi’s personal sponsorship. Roselle has been working hard for this, but always no effect."
"With Guardiola's resignation, Russell's relationship with Messi is not ideal. Not long ago, Messi's agent proposed to renew his contract and raise his salary. Bartomeu said that the team cannot continue with the players frequently. It’s too ridiculous to renew the contract every six months."
"From this point of view, the disagreement between Messi and the Barcelona executives ~EbookFREE.me~ is quite obvious!"
After Peter Kenyon's analysis, everyone suddenly felt enlightened.
"For teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid, internal conflicts are quite fierce, so as soon as Russell came to power, he chased his predecessor Laporta and sold Ibrahim at a low price. Movich, offended Cruyff and dismissed Guardiola, is desperately trying to grind off Laporta's traces in the team, branding his mark on this giant team, and winning Barcelona fans support."
"In doing these things, Roselle has succeeded, but the pressure is also very high. If Roselle wants to attack Messi, the most outstanding superstar during Laporta, there is only one way. It is to introduce a player who can replace Messi on both the competitive and commercial levels."
Peter Kenyon has analyzed this, and the answer is already ready.
"Then it can only be Neymar!"
Yang Huan couldn't help laughing happily when he heard this.
This is really the only one in the world, there is no semicolon! ()
