Chapter 893: Self-inflicted


"Our reporter reported that in order to greet the annual Boxing Day, major British businesses have launched the largest discounts and promotions. Although there was a sudden heavy snowfall on Boxing Day this year, it still failed to affect people's shopping enthusiasm. ."
"Outside the Glory Plaza in Southampton, in order to seize the shopping opportunity, there are nearly 10,000 enthusiastic consumers. Ten hours before the opening of the square, they stood in a trembling long queue ahead of time under the cold wind. "
"In order to allow consumers to buy their favorite products in advance, Harrods opened its doors at 7 o'clock in the morning two hours in advance, and it attracted more than 3,000 customers to rush into the store in the first time."
"In the first hour after opening the door, it set a record of two million pounds in sales. People's enthusiasm for consumption is surprising."
"According to the reporter's on-site observation, Glory Plaza currently attracts at least 80,000 consumers, and it is estimated that the daily passenger flow will exceed 300,000. This is incredible in Southampton."
"Earlier, due to the rise of Black Friday in November and the promotion of major merchants this Christmas, many people were pessimistic about the sales prospects of this year’s Boxing Day, but it turns out that although there are Black Friday and Christmas The big festival promotion is ahead, but Boxing Day is still the most popular shopping carnival in the UK."
"In addition to Southampton's Glory Plaza, the reporter also got news that the West End business district of London will also attract more than 700,000 consumers today, and Birmingham's most famous Burling Shopping Plaza will have more than 20 visitors this year. 10,000, and the shopping plaza in central Liverpool will also exceed 120,000."
"In view of the current gratifying consumption situation, major businesses believe that boxing day sales this year will be higher than last year."
"For this situation, the professional analysis, the main reason is that the major merchants have greater preferential power, and at the same time they have also innovated in marketing and publicity methods."
"For example, the Glory Plaza in Southampton, they built a business ecosystem around the Glory Stadium in Southampton, and created a way of exchanging points for tickets, which greatly attracted fans and users. The large discounts offered by merchants naturally stimulate people's enthusiasm for consumption."
"Southampton has innovatively created this new business model, which not only changed the business model of the traditional retail industry, but also attracted many Premier League teams to learn from it."
"Tottenham Hotspur in north London said that they will learn from Southampton's Glory Plaza around the new stadium, which is about to be fully completed in two years' time, and build a commercial shopping center, and will soon attract investment."
"It can be seen that Southampton's approach is not only for consumers to pay for it, but also for the competitors of the Premier League team. They are also very envious and actively learn."
"The chief executive of the Premier League, Richard Skudmoore, when interviewed by our reporter, publicly called for more Premier League clubs to learn from Southampton's business model."
Abramovich sat on the sofa in the living room, staring at the news on the TV, watching coldly, his face calm.
Only those who are familiar with him know that he is not happy in his heart.
At this time, whoever goes up to provoke him will definitely be unlucky.
Therefore, both Granowski and Bruce Buck sensibly chose to sit aside and not speak.
It’s better to be a boring gourd than a spit star who is scolded all over his head, right?
As the operators of the club, they all have to admit that Southampton's management is indeed quite outstanding.
First, they really value professional talents, and second, Yang Huan also knows how to reuse these talents.
Therefore, in just a few years, Southampton has become the best and most successful top team in Europe.
However, it is difficult for Chelsea to learn from the successful experience of Southampton.
At the management level, Chelsea personally sent away management experts such as Peter Kenyon and Ron Gurley, leading to the loss of the club’s talents. At the same time, the ownership of the Stamford Bridge stadium, its location, and the surrounding environment are all It is difficult for Chelsea to be like Southampton.
Also, although Yang Huan often interferes with the team, he knows the ball well and knows how to stop.
But his own boss, in many respects, is obviously better than Yang Huanxi.
However, these words can only be rotten in their hearts, if anyone dares to say, they must die miserably.
In front of his boss, Yang Huan is a taboo.
But the good news is that after just broadcasting the Southampton Glory Plaza news, Sky TV soon began to forecast the live broadcast of the Premier League tonight.
"Tonight, the Premier League will usher in the eighteenth round of the game. This is also the first game of the Christmas Devil's schedule. The highlight is the defending champion of the league. Southampton will host Chelsea."
"Southampton has continued the outstanding performance of the previous two seasons this season. From the beginning, it has firmly occupied the throne of the league leader. No other team has been able to shake Southampton's position."
"On the other hand, Chelsea, the current situation is not ideal. Mourinho's team is ranked sixteenth in the standings and only two points away from the relegation zone. It is very shocking."
"There has always been news from the outside world that the Chelsea management has lost patience with Mourinho and has ordered that they must win Southampton away, otherwise, Mourinho will be dismissed again due to poor grades."
"This also makes people look forward to this upcoming game, to see whether the blues of the Portuguese madman can fight back in despair, or the Saints completely stepped the blues into the abyss of despair."
Hearing the news on Sky TV, all three people present were a little bit ridiculous.
Because this is all news that catches the wind.
It's not about the current situation of Chelsea, but about the news about the firing of Mourinho. This is definitely fake news.
The reason is simple. Who can afford to fire Mourinho?
It is estimated that the Portuguese madman is now anxious for the management to fire him, because he has completely lost control of the locker room.
However, he repeatedly emphasized that he would never resign on the initiative.
What does it mean?
This means that if the management thinks I did not do well, then fire me.
But, that was your initiative to fire me, so you have to pay me the same for liquidated damages and salary.
With a full plan and fired Mourinho, Chelsea will have to pay at least tens of millions.
What's more, European coaches are scarce now. After Mourinho is fired, who will take over the team?
This is why the Chelsea management has been silent.
Otherwise, based on Mourinho's performance this season, he would have dismissed ten times and eight times. Can he survive until now?
Abramovich sighed, turned off the TV, looked at the two high-level Chelsea leaders sitting on his left and right sides, and asked faintly: "How is the team now?"
"Still the same." Granovschia replied, "Since Mourinho fired the team doctor, the players have reacted fiercely, but the more they react, the more Mourinho wants to press. and so……"
Abramovich himself is quite aware of the character of the Portuguese madman, and he is not surprised at all.
In fact, his intention to fire the team doctor is to tell the players that everything in the team, even including your injury diagnosis and treatment, must be approved by me.
This was normal in the past.
But it's obviously different now. Players' self-awareness is much stronger now than ten years ago. So, where would they follow Mourinho?
As a result, the more the players resist, the tougher Mourinho will be, and in the end the two sides will have a fight.
"The team doctor also publicly stated that he wants to sue us. The whole thing is very troublesome." Bruce Buck said worriedly.
Abramovich raised his head and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a little headache.
He now truly feels that many things have become more and more out of his control.
As the saying goes, poor couples are sad, Chelsea is in a bad situation now, it is the time when everyone needs to work together, but at this time, so many moths are produced.
What's more sad is that the owner of his club has nothing to do with all this.
On the other hand, Southampton, being managed by Yang Huan, is prospering and flourishing.
If Southampton wins again this season, it will be three consecutive championships. It will completely surpass Chelsea and become the new Premier League hegemon. But what about Chelsea?
Whether it can be successfully relegated this season is not certain.
After a short silence, Abramovich sighed suddenly and said: "Tonight's game, you can lead the team, I will not go."
Granovskia and Bruce Buck looked at each other, and they clearly saw the meaning behind Abramovich.
He is not optimistic about this game tonight.
Right, Southampton is so strong now, not only the Premier League leader, but also the leading advantage is so obvious, the overall strength of the team is so strong, on the other hand, Chelsea, morale is low, not to mention, the strength is far from Southampton's level. .
In this case, Chelsea's visit to the Glory Stadium to challenge Southampton is indeed a life of nine deaths.
Abramovich is reluctant to go to the away game, and it is estimated that he does not want to see the team defeated, while avoiding the enemy of Yang Huan.
If Chelsea lose to Southampton in an away game, with Yang Huan's character, he will definitely come back to Abramovich to show off his power, so it's better to just look out of sight and save time to look angry.
After trying to understand this level, Granowski and Bruce Buck have nothing to say.
However, the former, as Abramovich's confidant for many years, decided to speak his mind after thinking about it.
"Boss, in fact, I think it is definitely not the way to continue like this."
Abramovich raised his brows and thought about the female subordinate for many years, "What do you mean?"
"I mean, if this goes on, in case... I mean in case, if the team falls into the relegation zone, then..."
The dismissal of Mourinho now is indeed a heavy price, but if the team is not dismissed, if the team is relegated from the Premier League, the loss will not be tens of millions, but over 100 million.
Because the loss of relegation is not only the broadcast fee of the Premier League, but also the weakening of the Chelsea brand, and even sponsors will definitely put pressure on it.
Just ask, they sponsored Chelsea at the level of a contender for the Premier League title. Now the team has a bad performance and has fallen downstream. They already have complaints. If they are relegated... the consequences are absolutely unimaginable~EbookFREE.me~Abramo Vikki understands what Granovskia means, but...
"Marina, then do you think, once Mourinho is over, who can take over?"
"This..." Granovsky was also very troubled.
With Chelsea's spirit, the selected coach must not be too bad.
But even Mourinho is over, who else can take over?
Besides, in the past few years, Chelsea's image in the field of coaching is indeed not good.
Guardiola was unwilling to take over as Chelsea.
Sometimes I think about it, Chelsea will come to today's dilemma, more or less a little self-inflicted.
However, I hope that tonight, the team will not lose too badly.
