A hearty victory came to an end. Millwall scored 11 points after the fifth battle, and made an early appearance. At the same time, he locked the group first.
As for the other opponents in the same group who will live and die, this is not what Millwall will care about.
Millwall stars stared on the court and returned to the locker room for a brief celebration. The battle was over, and everyone bathed and changed clothes, but the excitement in their hearts had not subsided. Even if they returned home, they could not sleep, so some players agreed Go play two sets of snooker and go home.
Outside the parking lot, Ronaldinho left the car window when he was leaving and beckoned Henry who was just about to open his door. He laughed and made a provocative action of drag racing. Henry smiled helplessly and did not intend to play this adventure game with the other party.
When Henry got in the car, his cell phone rang suddenly and took out to answer.
"Tieri, where are you?"
"I am going to a billiard room in the city to play two sets of snooker with my teammates."
"Let's meet now."
"why?"
"There are important things to talk about."
"it is good."
After noting where he met, Henry drove to the car, and on the road, he looked very worried.
The person who called was his agent.
This is his second agent.
In the summer of 1996, Henri, who was born out of the blue, led the French U18 to win the European Cup youth group championship. At that time, it attracted the attention of many European teams. This meant that Henry needed a professional agent to help him plan his career. Career and handling related matters, he hired a broker himself, at this time Real Madrid threw an olive branch to him, it was precisely the broker hired by Henry himself to negotiate the conditions of joining, just when everything seemed to come to an end, Monaco did A paper was handed over to the FIFA table because Henry’s agents did not have FIFA-approved broker qualifications. At the same time, Monaco spared no effort to leave Henry and introduce Henry to a professional The broker of FIFA decided that Monaco won the lawsuit, and the agreement between Henry and Real Madrid was invalid, so Henry continued to stay in Monaco, and this new agent will also serve him.
Henry sent a text message to his teammates on the way to meet his agent, and he seemed unable to play snooker.
The meeting point with the agent was in the suite of a hotel in the city.
Henry sat opposite his agent.
"What are you talking about?"
"Talk about your future."
"I don't understand, I feel good now."
Henry is hitting the English Premier League gold boots with all his might, and it can even be said to be European gold boots. At the same time, Millwall defending the league champion is in sight, and the Champions League has also advanced to the quarterfinals. Is there anything more wonderful than this?
His agent Svenvin, with a solemn expression and a deep voice, said: "I know, Thierry, you are now the first person on the Premier League shooter list. You will definitely get the trophy this year, but are you satisfied?"
Henry frowned and asked, "What the are you questioning?"
"Do you still have the ambition to become the world's first striker? Become the top-ranked figure among the great strikers in history?"
"You shouldn't question my aggressiveness."
Henry's expression is slightly unpleasant. He is not a child and does not need to show his determination to his parents, especially if the other party is only his own agent, and he does not need to prove anything to the other party.
"Then you should go to the World First League to prove yourself! Become the world's first striker in the World First League!"
The agent's words sounded loudly and knocked Henry's heart heavily.
He lowered his head and crossed his fingers against his forehead, and asked in a low voice: "Which club are you persuading me to join?"
"Juventus, they have shown enough sincerity, but this is not the main reason. Think about it, you go to Juventus, there is your national team friend Trezeguet, and Zidane, the world The champion's frontcourt works together, what else can't be done?"
These words are indeed very tempting.
Henry closed his eyes for a moment and said, "But I can also get a lot of honor in Millwall, and Millwall's achievements in recent years are not lower than Juventus."
The agent replied loudly: "Don't you understand? How important are you in Millwall? Larson is Mr. Golden Ball, Nedved is Mr. Golden Ball, and Ronaldinho is almost taken by the outside world. Described as Hall’s half-brother! You? You will always be in their shadow! If they value you so much, why did you perform so well in this year, but did not mention the things about continuous appointments? After? You and Ronaldinho, the Brazilian, earned as much, but you are the world champion! What does he have? You have more than twice the number of goals!"
For the club, no matter how beautiful it is, no matter how good the personal relationship is, even the main commitment is far less profound than the sincerity that money can embody.
Henry said flatly: "Maybe the boss thinks that it is not time to talk about money now. Our attention must be on the court."
"Don't be stupid, Thierry, I tell you, Larson and Nedved, the annual salary is one million pounds more than you, and the bonus is one million pounds more than you!"
Henry raised his head in surprise and asked, "Really?"
The agent nodded solemnly and said, "It's true!"
He absolutely didn't lie about this.
I don't know from which channel he heard the inside information of Millwall.
Larsson and Nedved have a higher weekly salary than Henry. At the same time, there will be an additional 1 million bonus this year. This bonus is not only the two of them, Southgate also has a million, other players such as Schneider , Materazzi, Makelele and other players also have 800,000 bonuses.
The appearance of this bonus is not accidental, and it was not given to the player on the whim of Millwall, but the "loyalty clause" in the player's contract came into effect.
Any player who played Millwall five years later will have a "loyalty bonus" in the sixth year!
The loyalty clause is not a reward for loyal players to chew on the old ones. It will be directly linked to the attendance rate. For example, after a certain number of appearances in the season, you can get the full amount, and the insufficient will be discounted.
Henry's agent did not state the content of this bonus, nor did he point out that Ronaldinho and Pirlo did not have this bonus. Their intentions, if they can't deepen their speculation, positive understanding cannot be insightful.
Millwall's team salary structure is not the highest level in the Premier League. For example, the highest-paid player in the Premier League is Manchester United player Roy Keane. Just three months ago, this midfielder renewed the contract with Manchester United and got Weekly salary of 50,000 pounds.
The three captains of the Millwall club are representatives of the highest salary, their weekly salary is 40,000 pounds.
But if the "loyalty clause" bonus is taken into account, on average, their weekly salary is more than 60,000 pounds, which has reached the highest level in the Premier League, but the bonus is ultimately a bonus. Compared with the dead salary, there are uncertainties. of.
Henry’s weekly salary is indeed not very high at Millwall, it can only be regarded as a middle grade. His weekly salary is 25,000 pounds, which is a significant increase from the weekly salary when he played in Monaco two years ago. , Even though he came to the team with the highest value of Milwall’s history, the contract treatment he received at that time was indeed ordinary, because players such as Nedved and other players have made different increases since winning the Champions League. salary.
Henry's head was a bit chaotic. After being bewitched by the agent, he always felt his thoughts turned. Some places were strange and unreasonable, but he couldn't find where the unreasonable place was.
If Aldridge is here, he will tell Henry outspokenly: You in the summer of 1998, a weekly salary of 25,000 pounds, what are you dissatisfied with? Will you get a salary increase within a year of coming to the team? Half of the time last season, you were healing, healing!
After Henry left, his agent took out the phone and called.
"I have begun to convince him."
"how is the progress?"
"In the summer, you move faster and you should be more stable."
"Then I will wait for your good news."
"What about my 400,000 rewards?"
"As long as he agrees to transfer, he will transfer it to you that day."
"It's a word."
The football circle and the various small circles in the society have common characteristics, and are full of invisible conspiracies, rebellion, bewitching, betrayal, and choice. Even though the story here does not affect the trend of the world, it does not rise to life or death, but the invisible sword and sword. The invisible smoke still makes this game impossible to be pure.
...
At the weekend's league, Millwall went away to challenge the Black Cat Sunderland.
In the game, Aldridge still used the back line of defense and the main offensive group.
A game that should have won the game, but failed to win because of Henry's abnormal performance, he wasted at least three excellent opportunities.
With 7 rounds left in the Premier League, the gap between Millwall and Manchester United has shortened to 12 points.
In the locker room after the game, Henry took a shower early and sat in the seat. He lowered his head and looked very blamed.
What the are you thinking about!
Zhou Zhong's conversation with his agent kept haunting him, which distracted him severely.
"Hey, don't get too entangled in the game. Sometimes it's strange. How to play, the ball doesn't go to the door."
Larson patted him on the shoulder as he passed by and smiled and unwrapped.
Southgate did not play, and spent 90 minutes on the bench. He walked neatly in front of Henry and asked, "Is it okay to see what you think?"
Henry raised his head and cheered up. "No problem."
Sausguet nodded and asked no more, the conjecture might be the influence of Henry's private life.
On the return bus, Aldridge asked Henry to sit beside him, and Jenson went to another place to sit down.
Aldridge turned his head to stare at the depressed Henry, did not think too much. The opponent was named the worst player in Millwall after the game. It felt that the state of the game was too strong. Only in the middle of the week did he score in the Champions League At the weekend, several golden opportunities in the league were squandered. This contrast has no sign, and it is also one of Aldridge’s greatest concerns.
Even if the state of most players declines, they will slide down bit by bit. You can see the signs through the specific data on the field. However, the short time interval like Henry's performance is very rare.
"Did you take a rest before the game?"
Henry shook his head.
"Hide the injury?"
Henry still shook his head.
"Tieri, I don’t understand. I’ve kept the density of at least 4 days for you to have a game this season, and it’s not necessarily 90 minutes of playing time. Your status should be fine recently, but you are on the court today. I act like I can’t play football. I never think that firing a player can immediately improve the player’s performance. My principle is that if there is a problem, then solve the problem, maybe you can’t solve it yourself, but We work together and should not be stumped."
Henry looked at Aldridge and said in a deep voice: "Boss, I'm fine, but I feel bad today. I promise you will be satisfied in the next game."
Aldridge stared at him for a long time, and finally nodded: "I don't need your guarantee, but I trust you, Thierry, now at this moment, the team needs you, what can we harvest at the end of the season, the team still counts on you Well, okay, sit back and take your place."
Aldridge took his eyes off, and Henry stood up and walked to his seat, circling Aldridge's words all over his mind.
Team, count on him!
