Vol 4 Chapter 613: Difficult domestic and foreign affairs

On the afternoon of December 22nd, Anfield Stadium.
In the eighteenth round of the Premier League, before the game against Portsmouth, Liverpool fans came to the stadium earlier than usual.
Because they know that before the game, the team will hold a special celebration.
Yang Yang, who has just picked up World Football from the Zurich Opera House in Switzerland, will show all Liverpool fans at the Anfield Stadium the trophy he has just won and the European Golden Globe trophy.
Liverpool fans are also full of expectations, everyone came to the stadium early.
Before the game, before the referee brought the two teams of players into the stadium, Yang Yang held a trophy in one hand, accompanied by the club's general manager Rick Parry, came out of the player channel and came to the middle of the stadium.
In an instant, the whole Anfield stadium was applauded and more than 50,000 fans cheered in unison.
This is the Premier League, and even in the history of the English Premier League, the first World Footballer, this honor will always belong to Liverpool, as if the first to win the European Golden Globe for the English Premier League is Irving.
All this is the glory of Liverpool, which is recorded in the history of the club.
Although it has been three days since the award, Yang Yang still looks particularly happy. He raised his trophy high in the stadium and swinged towards the fans in the stands, showing the results of his hard work in the past season.
Liverpool fans have been cheering and applauding for a long time.
The stadium's commentators are also constantly introducing Yang Yang's contribution to the team in the past year, and the honors and championships he has received for the team since he joined the team, which has changed the fans in the stands. Be even more excited.
At the beginning, some fans shouted out the league champions one after another, and more and more, the momentum became bigger and bigger.
In the eyes of Liverpool fans, the Premier League title has an extraordinary meaning.
In fact, in the eyes of the Premier League team, the weight of the Premier League champions does not lose to the Champions League.
Of course, this is not to say that the Champions League championship is not important, but because the gains of the Premier League championships are very large, the profit is not even lost to the Champions League championship, plus the importance of local fans to the Premier League, so in a way, the Premier League champions The weight is not lost to the Champions League.
But for Liverpool, the league title is not just a question of money, it is also related to the revival of Liverpool.
When more and more fans shouted for the league championship, there were also a lot of fans who played banners and let Americans get out quickly, which made Rick Parry's expression very embarrassing.
Liverpool ’s recent financial situation is not ideal, and the two American bosses have basically stopped coming to Anfield.
The reason for all this is that not long ago, the United States Bank of America and the Royal Bank of Scotland announced that they will temporarily suspend the loan plan of up to 350 million pounds for the two US bosses of Liverpool for a year.
That is to say, before 2009, the bank will not approve the loan plan of the two American bosses of Liverpool.
As early as February of this year, two American bosses acquired Liverpool through a loan of £ 220 million from the Royal Bank of Scotland, and announced that it will spend £ 60 million to build a new stadium that can accommodate 70,000 fans.
But half a year later, after media disclosure, especially after the US subprime mortgage crisis, everyone gradually discovered that these two American bosses simply did not have so much money to operate such a large project.
Especially after the bank loan of up to 350 million pounds was shelved, it made Liverpool caught off guard by surprise.
The project approval for the new stadium has come down, but the loan has failed, especially after the media digs deeper, it is found that the two American bosses have had bankruptcy experience before, and the finances are not at all ample, and the bank is not at ease with them .
It is said that it is shelved, but it is practically impossible to approve it.
Just like the relationship between Manchester United and the Glazer family, the two American bosses are in financial crisis, and Liverpool is not much better. According to the current debt situation, Liverpool has to pay up to 30 million per year since 2008. Sterling interest, which will bring heavy operating pressure to Liverpool.
Even with the arrival of the winter break transfer, the outside world has been rumored that Liverpool does not rule out the sale of a batch of players such as Crouch and Reese in exchange for considerable funds to improve the club's operating conditions.
As Liverpool's most valuable player, the outside media has also been rumored that if Liverpool receives a suitable offer, it will not rule out pushing Yang Yang to the transfer market, but Liverpool must at least receive a transfer fee of more than 80 million euros.
Even before the media revealed that Liverpool rejected Barcelona's offer of 60 million euros.
In this case, not to mention the fans, even team captain Gerrard is very annoyed, because he welcomed the two American bosses with both hands, but who can think of the final result?
...
There are rumors in the outside world, and the Liverpool team is also panicked.
As the team's number one star, Yang Yang is also duty-bound.
Just this morning, he met with Rick Parry, Benitez, Gerrard and Carragher at the Hope Street Hotel.
On behalf of the club management, Rick Parry solemnly promised that the club currently has no plans to sell players, except for Mohamed Sissoko, because this player has long wanted to leave the team.
The general manager of the club also appeased Yang Yang, saying that the team will never sell Crouch, which is a rumor in the media, and at the same time did not receive a quote from Barcelona, ​​because according to the rules, the club should notify the player agent after receiving the quote.
If you do not receive a quote, you will naturally not sell players.
Rick Parry solemnly promised that the club ’s finances will not affect the operation of the team. Even if the team ’s performance is better this year and the performance can be achieved in the Premier League and the Champions League, the club will pay a sum of money. Substantial financial revenue is invested in the summer transfer market and continues to strengthen the team's overall strength.
As for the winter break, the club is intensively finalizing a central defender.
Of course, with Liverpool's current situation, it is impossible to break into the first-line central defenders of the four major leagues. At most, it is to find those inexpensive, high-cost central defenders.
Simply put, it is to continue to scrape the lottery.
After introducing the club's operating status, Rick Parry also hoped that Yang Yang, Gerrard and Carragher could play a role in stabilizing the players in the locker room to ensure that they will not be affected by the outside world. .
Rick Parry also secretly revealed that the club is negotiating with a dig consortium from Dubai. This consortium had intended to acquire Liverpool as early as February, but in the end lost to Gillette and Hick in the competition Sri Lanka.
Now that Liverpool are in financial trouble, they are also making a comeback.
...
Yang Yang was also quite helpless about Liverpool's situation.
Capital operation is a major feature of the Premier League, not only for Liverpool and Manchester United, but also for Arsenal and other teams. Unless there is a big money like Chelsea, Abramovich also Also tighten the money.
This is the case for the giants, and other teams are even more embarrassed.
For example, Everton in the same city, they even mortgaged Rooney to the bank in exchange for funds to run the team.
Yang Yang is not familiar with this kind of capital operation and has little interest.
Liverpool ’s current situation was something he did n’t expect when he joined, because he did n’t know that Liverpool would be acquired by Americans, or that the US would have a subprime mortgage crisis, which would cause the assets of two American bosses to shrink significantly.
But anyway, now that the team has encountered this situation, it can only continue to move forward.
Both public and private, Liverpool must not be chaotic.
It's really messed up. It's not good for the club or Yang Yang himself.
What's more terrible is that Yang Yang hasn't felt well in the past two days.
There is no injury, but the state feels a little uneasy.
…………
…………
This pre-match celebration seems like a false prosperity, but it is actually an undercurrent.
However, under the auspices of Yang Yang, Gerrard and Carragher, Liverpool's locker room was as stable and harmonious as ever. Even Muhammad Sissoko, who was determined to leave the team, still trained and prepared for the game as usual.
In the eighteenth round of the Premier League, Liverpool's opponent was Portsmouth.
The Pompeii team has won three games in the past four games and remained undefeated. Redknapp's team has played fairly well.
Benitez is also playing his best in this game.
Yang Yang in the thirteenth minute of the opening game, just after a dribble into the penalty area, after picking the pass, Kuyt kept up with a hit and scored the first record for Liverpool.
Three minutes later, Liverpool in a quick counterattack, Yang Yang took the ball directly to the front of the penalty area, but the ball was blocked by the opposing center defender Campbell. As a result, he hit the center defender Distin's leg and shot into his goal. .
In the thirty-seventh minute, Mascherano made a straight pass after stealing the ball from midfield. Yang Yang scored into the penalty area on the left and went back to the middle of the triangle. Crouch followed the shot and hit three to zero!
After steadily winning, Liverpool started to play more securely.
Everyone can clearly see that the club ’s financial crisis has little effect on the players ’performance on the court.
Yang Yang also played very hard in the game and tried very hard to find opportunities. After contributing two assists and creating an own goal, he even tried hard to win a goal.
Because he has scored every game except the first round of the league so far this season, he hopes to continue this state.
But until the 70th minute of the second half, when Benitez replaced him, Yang Yang failed to score.
But the Liverpool fans at the scene still gave him warm applause and cheers, shouting his name.
Although he didn't score a goal, but with two assists, Yang Yang was very eye-catching.
After Yang Yang came off, Portsmouth scored a goal, and Liverpool was then followed by Gerald to the next city, eventually defeating Portsmouth at home 4 to 1.
But Yang Yang's continuous goal momentum was interrupted. d
