Chapter 995: Messi is here!

Although Stamford Bridge is located in the West End where the wealthy of London gathers, it is surrounded by old traditional houses. ≦≮≮≈⊥≈≈.
Everyone knows that when Abramovich bought Chelsea, he actually suffered a big loss.
Why do you say that?
Most of the English team’s home ownership is controlled by the club, but the ownership of Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge stadium is controlled by a company called the Chelsea Owners Committee.
This must bring up a piece of history.
The Stamford Bridge stadium was first built to be leased to Fulham, but Fulham did not use it, so the owner of the stadium established the Chelsea Club to use this stadium.
In the 1970s, Chelsea was on the verge of bankruptcy and had to transfer the ownership of Stamford Bridge Stadium to Mahler Estates, a well-known real estate developer in London, and later to Kafra Estates.
In the hands of real estate companies, Stamford Bridge Stadium even almost turned into a shopping mall and department store.
It was not until Ken Bates bought Chelsea for a symbolic pound that he cooperated with the bank and redeemed Stamford Bridge Stadium in 1992. In 1997, through the establishment of the Chelsea Owners Committee, Raised funds from fans and bought the ownership of Stamford Bridge.
In other words, after Abramovich bought Chelsea, he was depressed and found that the stadium was not included!
This is more disgusting than when a man marries a woman and now buy one get one free.
At that time, Chelsea's training ground was just north of Heathrow Airport, a dilapidated place almost like an amateur team. ≥∈≡.┮.
This thing has always been taken as a warning throughout the English League.
That is, the water of investing in football is so deep!
It has been eleven years since the acquisition of Chelsea, and Abramovich has been dealing with this owners committee all the time.
He wanted to buy back the ownership of Stamford Bridge Stadium, but the owners committee would not sell it.
OK, don’t you? Can't I move back?
I can't provoke him, can I still not hide it?
So, Abramovich wanted to leave Stamford Bridge. He found the original power plant site on the south bank of the Thames and wanted to buy it and build a new stadium. But the owners committee said that they signed an agreement with the club. If Abramovich moves away from Stamford Bridge Stadium, he will no longer be able to use the Chelsea name.
This is so much more than cheating, even the ancestors are cheating!
Okay, don’t sell it, don’t move, don’t move, you uncle, I can always expand, right?
Sorry, no!
Why?
First of all, Stamford Bridge Stadium is surrounded by residential buildings and there is no place for expansion unless the residential buildings are relocated. But in the very expensive West End of London, how much does it cost to requisition such a large piece of land?
Besides, although the Chelsea Stadium is here, the surrounding area is not a gathering place for Chelsea fans. Who will bird you?
If by any chance there are rival fans, it would really be...
Well, think about the scene where Manchester City demolished to the door of Manchester United fans' homes for the training base. ≤Net.╈.
Also, the most important point is that the surrounding areas are residential areas, and the expansion is too dynamic and environmentally friendly, and it will definitely not be approved.
Therefore, the expansion and relocation of Chelsea's Stamford Bridge stadium have been mentioned almost every year, but they have been stranded every year.
In addition to the surrounding area, the transportation is not very convenient, and it is not even as good as Fulham's Craven Farm Stadium.
There is no need to think about subway stations or anything. Even bus stops are far away. It is really inconvenient for fans to run to watch the football.
In addition, in recent times, Chelsea's performance is not ideal, and now it is ranked in the middle and lower reaches, and Mourinho's coaching style is not pleasing, the blues' home attendance is also declining.
So far this season, the English League has played seven rounds, Chelsea have two wins, two draws and three losses, ranking 14th in the UK.
Such a record is indeed quite bad compared with the glory period of the Blues, but if compared with the past two seasons, it is still normal. After all, Chelsea have been ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the past two seasons.
The only gratifying game this season was in the last home game, beating Wenger's Arsenal 2-0.
But if we look back further, it would be a 1-2 at home that was upset by Crystal Palace, and a draw with Swansea in a 2-1 at home.
As for the away game, a zero-three loss to Manchester City and a one-to-three loss to Everton are all naked defeats. ≥∥⊥≡≠⊥∈≮≠Net≧∈.╬╇.╳c┼om
After a bad season, Mourinho once again ushered in a sad start. Almost at the beginning of the league, Stamford Bridge met him with boos from fans.
It is reported that Abramovich finally can't stand it anymore and Mourinho may dismiss get out of class at any time.
But, who knows?
With the current defeat of Chelsea's remnants, facing the wolf-like saints, the fans know how much they can win.
Therefore, even if it is playing at home, in fact, on the day of the game, the Stamford Bridge stadium seemed very deserted.
It's not that there is no one, it just doesn't seem to be a hot market.
Even if someone specifically counts it, it may happen that Saints fans wearing red and white arrow shirts may not be much fewer than Chelsea fans wearing blue jerseys.
Everything that happened in front of Stamford Bridge is just like the usual home games. Fans may be happily discussing the arrival of the Saints. They may not be Blues fans, but just for the stars-studded Saints.
Or maybe they walked into the court caring about the dispirited machines. They are the irons of the Saints, watching the game is a habit, and losing the game becomes numb.
"According to the data we got from the Stamford Bridge stadium, it was stimulated by the last home game, the 2-0 defeat of Arsenal and the star-studded Saints, the home game of this game may reach the last two seasons. New high, there will be more than 30,000 fans entering the stadium."
The film crew of Sky TV was filming the warm-up theme before the game. The reporter appeared at the entrance of Stamford Bridge Stadium. ?≦∥∧≮⊥∈∈≥∧.╃┼.╬c┭om
"Now, Chelsea has arrived at the stadium early and started to warm up. Mourinho said that the team will continue the unbeaten record of the past two rounds and will sniper the Saints at home."
"But based on the feedback from the fans before the game and the odds offered by the bookmaker, it is clear that most people are not optimistic about Chelsea, because the Saints have been so good this season."
"However, two or three days ago, there were media reports that Messi, who had just joined the Saints this summer, wanted to return to Barcelona before the winter break because of the delay in getting the chance to play. The Barcelona media It also said that they are ready to pick up Messi."
"Although the Saints have repeatedly refuted the rumors, but for the saints who are now in such a bad shape, whether there is Messi or not, it really makes no difference. Even many Saints fans feel that the introduction of Messi is purely for commercial considerations. ."
At this moment, the camera was aimed at the narrow road at Stamford Bridge.
"We saw the saint's bus coming."
"Southampton is about an hour's drive from London, so this time, the Saints did not arrive in London early, but stepped on the time of the game before leaving Southampton."
"Let's follow it now!"
As the most important broadcaster in the UK, Sky TV has a privilege that other media do not have, that is, entering the player channel and even following the locker room.
As the red and white arrow-striped bus slowly stopped at the player passage of Stamford Bridge Stadium, the door was slowly opened, and the coach Ancelotti got out of the car.
"This is the head coach of the Saints, the famous Italian coach Ancelotti, with a pair of glasses around his neck. It is really worrying. When he is directing the game, can he see everything that happens on the court?"
As Ancelotti got off the car, the players continued to walk out of the car.
Many Saints fans at the scene have already formed a circle. Under the security of Stamford Bridge, they shouted the names of every player. After hearing the movement, the players also greeted the fans.
The players got out of the car one by one, all of them got directly into the player channel.
But just when everyone thought it was over, suddenly a figure flashed in front of the car door, and a small figure walked out of the car. Everyone on the scene was stunned when they saw it.
After a full stunned for two or three seconds, there was a burst of cheers like thunder from the audience.
"Messi! Messi!!! Messi!!!"
The location host of Sky TV was also dumbfounded, "My God, Messi, we saw Messi!"
"Dear viewers, have you seen it? We saw Messi getting off the car!"
"This means that Messi has entered the 18-man roster for this game. This will be the first time this season!"
"Messi, the world's number one superstar, has been refrigerated by the Saints since his transfer to Southampton. There have always been rumors and even rumors that Messi wants to return to Barcelona because he did not get a chance to play."
"But now, we see that Messi has finally entered the roster!"
"The Saints fans at the scene shouted Messi's name frantically. Oh my god, this is surprising. There was no news before. Messi was on the list!"
"The fans are crazy. Messi is still as shy as ever. After greeting the fans, he got into the player tunnel, but we can clearly see that the fans are very excited."
"Yes, Messi is finally going to represent the Saints. After fans all over the world have been waiting for three months, the long-lost Messi is finally going to represent the Saints. This will be his first appearance in England. Games."
"Oh my God, Messi has already entered the player channel, but the fans at the channel have still been reluctant to leave for a long time. Many fans who have heard the news are crowded at the entrance. They want to see Messi, the Argentine superstar. Will it really appear?"
"If Messi plays on behalf of the Saints in this game, will he make the already unstoppable Saints even more powerful? Or will he disrupt the pace and pace of the Saints' original winning streak?"
"No one knows the answer!"
"It's like, countless people are suspecting that Messi will step on the back feet of superstars such as Belon and Shevchenko~EbookFREE.me~ to become another brilliant superstar who has fallen in England, but for On this issue, the Saints appear confident from top to bottom. Coach Ancelotti once said that Messi will succeed in Southampton."
"Now, Messi is about to play on behalf of the Saints. Perhaps the questions we and the fans care about will soon have answers."
