Chapter 420: Shock trading

The summer transfer curtain opened, and Millwall, as always, was astonishingly calm in the signing work.
Fans are used to it, and the media are used to it.
Almost no one now expects Millwall to introduce heavyweight stars in the summer.
In the past few years, facts have proved that many giants have not been successful in buying famous stars. Millwall also showed the outside world a position interpreted as adhering to the development policy of youth training from the operation in the transfer market.
Aldrich actually wants to buy some players who can come out with immediate results.
But after searching in the transfer market, he always dispels the idea.
He doesn't like it at an older age, and his price is too high.
Young people do not sell.
Even though the young stars that money may bring, it seems that it may not bring positive effects to Millwall.
Some stars are not easy to use. Genius shooters like Irving and pure shooters. If Millwall spends money to buy him, why not let Fanny go?
Some stars bought it as a bomb, and Anelka would occasionally publish an ambiguous declaration of leaving the team in front of the media. Aldrich was not interested in spending money to pay for it.
And like some stars of hope that can't stay in other giants, such as Kanu, Aldridge doesn't want to grab with others, really grab the hand, how much money is spent next, maybe make the player self-confident with a high nostril.
In the end, he discovered the reason, not that he couldn't find a player he liked, but the player he wanted. The youth team had been dug long ago, and the ones that could not be dug were basically held by other clubs and posted as non-sale items. label.
After Manchester United reached the Champions League, the goalkeeper Schmeichel left Old Trafford and moved to the Portuguese Super League. Ferguson bought Bosnich as a successor. At the same time, he also dug French star Sylvester. Coupled with Fanny's transfer, Manchester United spent almost 20 million pounds.
Arsenal have spent a lot of money this summer. Pennant, Kanu, Diawara, Luzni, Mars, Silvinho, Suk, Wenger added the Gunners lineup to almost 20 million pounds.
Tottenham still give people a mixed attitude, buy some "broken copper and rotten iron" from the midstream and downstream teams, Lin Lin's total investment of 10 million pounds is considered an explanation for fans.
Chelsea's "superstar policy" is still continuing. Deschamps, who is over 30 years old, came to Stamford Bridge. Sutton, who once achieved a brilliant record with Hiller, also put on the blue shirt, plus Melchio In particular, Ambrosetti, Tome and others, Bates wrote another 20 million cheques on the signing, but I don’t know how Chelsea’s fiscal deficit has reached.
Liverpool have been sinking for many years in a row. This summer has been painful. Hollier not only started to clean up the spicy buddies, but the club also gave an expensive budget. Husky, Harman, Smitchell, Westerveld, Hensau Yes, Kamala... Liverpool spent more than 35 million pounds! Net investment also exceeded 20 million pounds.
There are other clubs making waves in the transfer market, and Millwall does not seem to be interested.
But on the day of mid-July, Millwall and Leeds United officials announced a transfer news at the same time shocking England.
"60 million pounds! Ten Millwall players transfer to Leeds United!"
Many crazy Lion fans who lived step by step heard the news at first glance, and their noses were smoked and exploded!
60 million pounds!
How much beef can I buy?
Ten players left?
Simply renamed Millwall directly to Leeds United!
But if you calm down and think about it, the fans themselves think it might be a fuss.
I used to be used to a poor life. It’s okay to buy a Millwall and buy three for £60 million.
But it’s very different now, 60 million? Even in the main lineup, at best three or four people.
Fans waited to take a closer look at the official announcement of the deal, especially the ten players who left.
Basically, only three players are familiar to most fans.
Ferdinand, Duff, Mills.
As for the youth team and the U20 players of the reserve team, many fans do not know it. Of course, if they do not watch the reserve team or the youth team, they will certainly feel strange.
After understanding the details, the fans were relieved.
The main force didn't go, and all of them were taken off the bench. It can be exchanged for 60 million pounds, which is beneficial to the long-term development of the team.
Some high-profile young players have not left, such as Joe Cole and Villa. As for the Miguel flow that feels like a leafy role in the same period, the fans directly ignored it, and the greenery was afraid. Contrast and contrast, young players like Paulson, Dunn, Wasser, etc., put them in the reserve team or youth team of other Premier League teams, that is definitely a potential new star to focus on, but it can be placed in Milwaukee. I’m sorry, the youth team is a little weak, and there are more people who are more outstanding than them.
This transfer news not only caused a sensation in England, but the entire European football community is paying attention.
People are curious, Leeds United almost bought a team integrated by Millwall 2 + 3 team, is this transfer strategy effective?
Millwall’s excellent youth training is well known, but some semi-finished products have been taken away by packing, can they be adjusted and shaped?
If Leeds United can really achieve a breakthrough success through this summer's sensational signing, other clubs will certainly follow suit.
This triggered a wave of public opinion on Fleet Street.
Some insiders believe that Leeds United is betting their lives!
A transfer of 60 million pounds, what a joke, do they have a net income of 60 million pounds a year?
The club with the highest operating income in Europe two years ago was Manchester United. What was the income? In the early 50 million pounds, if you count the expenditure, you will earn more than 10 million pounds a year.
Millwall has made a lot of money every year in the past two years. In fact, operating income and expenditure are in a state of balance. The money earned is based on the transfer market to sell people, but their prospects are worth looking forward to, because their income on the game day The top ten of the Premier League can't be ranked in. When they move into the new stadium, their operating income does not dare to say that they have used the top position. At least the top five in Europe are no problem.
Chelsea's debt problem has begun to surface, and Leeds United has emulated a large amount of lending investment like Chelsea. Many people are not optimistic about the prospects of Leeds United, and even predict that Leeds United and Chelsea will go bankrupt in four years.
Not only the transfer fee of 60 million, but also their sudden increase in salary expenses, which is the same as Chelsea’s problem. In order to attract high-level players, the salary treatment must be higher than normal. When the accumulation is difficult to return, the club will fall into In order to survive the dilemma for years.
However, a considerable number of people in the industry believe that such a large investment as Leeds United represents their ambitions. Ritzdale and O'Reilly work together to make a real fight in the Premier League or European football!
Didn’t they make it to the UEFA Cup next season?
Team expansion is imperative to increase the thickness of the bench.
Of these 10 people, there are only three who can challenge the main force. Others could not have been on the bench at Millwall. If they can get to the bench at Leeds United, their career is going up.
As for the investment of 60 million pounds, it sounds very shocking. In fact, Leeds United cannot make such a big investment year after year. They spend the future money. Assuming that only 5 million pounds will be invested each season in the future, then four seasons later Looking back at the account, they only spent £20 million on the transfer market on average each season.
Compared with Tottenham, Liverpool have bought a few non-competent players every year in the past few years. Compared with the transfer policy of 10 million to 15 million pounds per season, Leeds United has only one test: Improve your track record as soon as possible!
Any club that has invested heavily in the club does not just want to make a difference in the Premier League, but also wants to share the big cake of the Champions League.
This season, the Champions League has expanded to 32 teams. The mainstream league places are also increasing. The Premier League has only three teams participating this season, but with the points earned by Manchester United and Millwall in the past three years to carry the Premier League flag in the European War, In the next season, the Premier League will definitely be able to get four Champions League places. At that time, if Leeds United can go further than the previous season this season, from the fifth league to the fourth league, next season there is hope to play with the giants. Games, follow the giant to make big money.
Did Ritzdale write?
Has Liverpool invested more than 30 million pounds in the summer? Their chairman even smashed the pot and sold iron to pay for the club, is it just a love?
Can’t Bets see Chelsea’s debt increase?
Arsenal is brewing a new stadium plan, but in the summer, the expansion of the lineup hit 20 million pounds.
Various tyrants have come up with money to increase their strength. Everything is for greater benefits.
If it is said that Leeds United will challenge the order of the Premier League powerhouses in the next two years, it is a fool's dream, but as long as they can enter the Champions League and are not playing soy sauce, then Leeds United's investment today may be the foundation of the glory of the next decade.
Admittedly, no one can guarantee that Leeds United will definitely play a highly anticipated record, but if Leeds United wants to make a difference, Ritzdale must give O'Reilly a better card.
Turning decay into a magical thing is not a common thing in football. The magic of turning a stone into gold is now only recognized by the media as Aldrich Hall. However, if O'Reilly holds the deck of last season, he wants There was a breakthrough in the new season, not because the outside world looked down on him, but the law of the Premier League. However, if a team performed very well in the previous season, if there is no obvious improvement in the second year, it cannot be said that it was beaten back to its original form. However, the difficulties encountered are obvious, and those defeated in the first year will not be willing to be knocked down continuously on the same enemy.
The white roses in Yorkshire seem to be blooming, and O'Reilly held a press conference with enthusiasm to welcome these newly joined players and display their new jerseys in high-profile.
Ritzdale was also full of red light in an interview, and the spring breeze talked with pride.
"Leeds United already has an excellent team of players and excellent coaches, coupled with our loyal fan base, I firmly believe that Leeds United can become an unshakable force in English football in three years, we will bring back for fans The trophy will also recreate the glory of Leeds United's climb to the top league championship."
Leeds United has become the focus of England this summer. Their transfer transaction with Millwall is also destined to last forever. Whether it succeeds or fails, people will often mention this summer for many years to come.
Many people want to know what Aldridge thinks of Ritzdale’s speech.
Millwall made money and Leeds United got good players. Did Millwall establish a strong enemy for himself?
Aldridge didn't have time to deal with the public opinion storms, and the club was going to be cleaned up. Millwall was slightly confused in the first half of this summer, but everything was with the transfer of a group of players led by Ferdinand to Leeds United. When the curtain came down, Millwall was on the right track and began signing in summer.
