　　 "Mr. Mancini, Manchester City was eliminated from the UEFA Europa League by Sporting Lisbon, but Southampton beat Sporting Lisbon three to one in the semifinals, avenging Manchester City. What do you think?"

　　 asked a reporter with a smile.

　　 It looked like it was like Manchester City begged Southampton to help him out.

　　 "I have no opinion. The competitive environment faced by Manchester City and Southampton is completely different, and there is no comparison."

　　 Mancini replied hesitantly.

　　 The subtext is that we are in the Premier League and they are in the Championship. I didn't even see them in my eyes.

　　 "It is true that there is no comparability. The favorites to win the Premier League were eliminated. On the contrary, the Premier League teams successfully advanced. How to compare?"

　　 There was a burst of laughter in the entire press conference hall.

　　Rao is Mancini who has been mentally prepared for a long time, and can't help but feel angry.

　　 Fortunately, a month ago, he was still gloating about Ferguson’s face-to-face beating by the media, and he almost fell into trouble.

　　 It's all right now. Coincidentally, he also enjoys Ferguson's treatment.

　　 It's just that this is more like a humiliation to the proud Italian.

　　 But the reporter obviously didn't plan to let it go.

　　 It was hard to create a topic, if they are not good at using it, then they really shouldn’t be called a paparazzi.

　　 "Then use comparable, three major cups, the League Cup, the FA Cup and the Europa League. Manchester City were all eliminated, but Southampton either had the last laugh or reached the final. What do you think?"

　　Mancini is obviously on fire this time, and he snorted, "I said, I don't have any opinion!"

　　His temper is better, at least he didn't go wild on the spot like Ferguson.

　　 Because he knew in his heart that these reporters were waiting for him to go crazy.

　　 However, when the reporter asked about Southampton for the third time, Mancini finally couldn't help it, stood up angrily, put down a cruel word, and left the table angrily.

　　 "Southampton, Southampton, you are all waiting to see it, you will be in the Premier League next season and see what they can do!"

　　The implication is to say that Southampton, which you keep talking about, is playing sideways in the English Champions League and the Cup. It is really going to be the most brutal competition in the Premier League. They are not as good as our Manchester City!

　　……

　　 When Mancini's ruthless remark at the press conference appeared in football news through the TV station, the executives sitting in Yang Huan's office suddenly became dissatisfied.

　　 Did you talk like that?

　　 Why did we in Southampton provoke you?

　　 You have to refute the reporter, there is no need to step on us, right?

　　 "This time I was shot while lying down!" Yang Huan shook his head with a wry smile.

　　 "Mancini hasn't been as handsome as he is, what right does he have to comment on others?"

　　 "That is, play in the Premier League next season and see if we don't kill Manchester City!"

　　 "It's better to beat them to find teeth!"

　　 "It's not that they have never played. Manchester City lost to us in the Cup last season, but they were not convinced!"

　　 Everyone said one sentence by one, but they were not angry.

　　 If it was because of what Mancini said on TV, it would be completely irritated, that would be too useless.

　　 Dasuo's family usually treats these remarks as a joke, just listen to it.

　　 "By the way, have Gareth Bell and Modric's agents come?"

　　 Yang Huan checked the time, and the two parties had agreed at 15 o'clock in the afternoon. Now the time is almost up, but there is no figure in sight.

　　 Ron Gurley saw Yang Huan looking at him, and shook his head with a wry smile.

　　 "Just now Modric's agent called and said that something would be delayed temporarily, while Gareth Bell's agent got through but didn't answer it."

　　Sun Yue laughed, "It's still an old trick!"

　　 The same technique was used by Roselle when Yang Huan planned to import Ibrahimovic from Barcelona.

　　 To put it bluntly, it is a means of negotiation.

　　 Modric’s agent is the vice chairman of the Dynamo Zagreb club, Zdravko Mamic.

　　Southampton had had a few dealings with him before, and had a good relationship.

In the past few years, Croatian football has produced a number of good stars. The Southampton team has successively introduced central defender Yedvaj from Dinamo Zagreb, frontcourt attacking genius Halilović, and midfielder. The genius Kovacic.

　　 are the hands of Mamiqi and Pini Zahavi.

Gareth Bell’s agent is a veteran British brokerage company. This company represents the brokerage business of more than 500 players, all over the world, and they have become his agent since Bell was sixteen. , They brought Bell from Southampton to Tottenham Hotspur.

　　 The chairman of this company Jonathan Barnett and David Manas are both famous vampires in European football circles.

　　 Yang Huan has been mentally prepared for a long time, and the two big agents are both well-known and difficult to talk about.

　　 Especially Jonathan Barnett.

　　 "What is the reaction of the outside world now?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.

　　 Since people like to put up scores, let them do it. There is no need to be angry.

　　 If you really want to be angry about such a little bit of sesame mung bean, Yang Huan would have been angry long ago.

　　 Because of his large and small companies, he conducts business negotiations almost every day. What kind of negotiation tricks have not been seen?

"No reaction!" Sun Yue shook his head. "But I heard that Manchester United had contacted Tottenham Hotspur and wanted to bring in Gareth Bale, but they didn't make a specific offer, and Manchester United definitely couldn't make that. More cash."

　　 Now Manchester United is heavily in debt and is planning to carry out debt restructuring. I am afraid that I can't draw so much cash and can only take a mortgage.

　　 Southampton’s offer is not low, but the more attractive one is cash transactions, which is unmatched by Manchester United.

　　 Peter Kenyon, who hasn't spoken all the time, listened and sighed rather sighfully.

　　 "Manchester United finally realized that they had lost after selling Cristiano Ronaldo!"

　　 Everyone immediately looked at Peter Kenyon.

　　 The former Manchester United CEO shook his head and smiled bitterly: "David Gill's operating ability is not bad, but his vision is very poor, even worse than Ferguson!"

　　 "How do you say?" Nicolas Cortez couldn't help asking curiously.

　　He is also the executive chairman of Southampton, which is quite interesting.

"As we said before, professional football has ushered in a new era, but there are still quite a few people who are still looking at football in the new era with past thinking and vision, just like the entertainment of stars. Development, this is an irreversible trend and trend."

"Before and after 2009, the three most appealing superstars in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and Messi, among them, Kaka is restricted by position, coupled with the overall decline of Milan and Serie A So, the two most appealing superstars at the time were Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi."

"Many fans say that there are no superstars in professional football now. It is not as good as the 1990s and the beginning of the century. In fact, it is the opposite. Now there are very, very many. Because with the rise of the Internet, the ability of starmaking I don’t know how many times stronger it is before, and how much more meticulous football tactics are than before. How can there be no superstars?"

　　 Everyone can't help but nodded. The so-called current stars are far inferior to the past. This is all a hooliganism.

　　 because you can't refute it.

　　 Can't travel through time and space, Guan Gong fights Qin Qiong, right?

　　 "If Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are taken out, professional football is now more prosperous than it was in the 1990s and the beginning of the century, with more stars and brighter competition, and more intense competition."

　　 Peter Kenyon’s statement is interesting.

　　 But I have to admit that the stars of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are indeed too dazzling. No

　　 is so dazzling that countless fans mistakenly believe that today's professional football talents are withered.

"I still remember that when selling Cristiano Ronaldo, Ferguson told David Gill that Cristiano Ronaldo was worth at least 150 million pounds. At the time, David Gill thought it was impossible and ridiculous. So, 80 million pounds was offered, and Real Madrid agreed."

　　 Everyone nodded again.

　　 This incident is also reported by the media, which is not a secret.

"Ferguson seems to be old and stubborn, but in fact he is not stubborn. He has been in charge of Manchester United for 20 to 30 years. Without the ability to advance with the times, it is impossible to achieve. His vision is very vicious and he can see through the core at a glance. ."

　　 "That is, if Real Madrid wants to compete with Barcelona's Messi, they have to buy Cristiano Ronaldo, it can only be him!"

　　 "This is the only choice, even if you bring in Kaka!"

　　As a midfielder, Kaka’s goals are always a weakness.

　　 To put it a bit biased, the most fascinating thing in football is scoring. The vast majority of new fans do not care how effective your tactics are and how effective they are, they just focus on one thing.

　　 Who scored more goals!

　　 Therefore, when Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi score goals, they are actually scoring their own fame.

　　 This brush directly put them both into the ranks of super football stars.

　　 Southampton in the past year, what is the most interesting news for fans?

　　 Ibrahimovic and Drogba’s goals!

　　 The two top centers kept scoring their goals in the English Championship, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Europa League and competed wildly.

　　 You enter one today, I will enter two tomorrow, and you perform a hat trick the day after tomorrow.

　　 In such a contest between you and me, the media is *, and the fans are also caring.

　　 The only regret is that the English Champions League has lost a bit of influence.

　　 If the change is in the Premier League, then hehe!

"Florentino himself knows this very well, so let alone Manchester United's 80 million pounds, even if it is 100 million or 200 million, as long as he can afford it, he will agree, because of the value The higher the value, the more astonishing the accompanying influence, and at that time, 150 million pounds was the limit that Real Madrid could bear."

　　 "It can be said that in this transfer, David Gill's stupidity caused Manchester United to lose 70 million pounds in vain!"

　　 After Peter Kenyon's explanation and analysis, everyone could not help but suddenly realize.

　　 "Then why do you say that after Manchester United sold Cristiano? Ronaldo suffered heavy losses?"

　　 Nicola Cortez thought of the question again.

Peter Kenyon nodded and smiled, "Because after Manchester United sold Cristiano Ronaldo, the commercial value has not increased but decreased in the past few years. If it were not for the overall influence of the Premier League in recent years, Manchester United would not be able to sustain it now. ."

　　 Everyone listened, and suddenly they looked at Peter Kenyon curiously, wanting to hear his thoughts.

　　 "Ferguson has a very vicious vision, but as the head coach, he first thought about the problem from the perspective of football, so he decided to sell Cristiano Ronaldo. This directly led to Manchester United becoming a leader in the marketing of the entire club."

"If you compare Manchester United to a crown, then Cristiano Ronaldo is the most shining gem in the crown. If you lose this gem, the crown may still be the crown, but it's not dazzling at all, and lost. The core value."

"It can almost be said that by selling Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United’s commercial value quickly slipped from super first-class to first-class, while Real Madrid relied on Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, directly from Calderon’s semi-first class. , Even a second-rate, transformed into a super class, keeping pace with Barcelona of the Grand Slam!"

　　 Shopping malls are like battlefields. As the commander-in-chief of Real Madrid, the star team, Florentino has excellent vision, means and courage, which is amazing.

　　 On the contrary, it is Manchester United under the helm of David Gill. Indeed, as Peter Kenyon said, it has lost the opportunity to become a super-class team, which is also a pity.

"Gareth Bale undoubtedly gave Manchester United a hope~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ As long as it works properly, he can hope to achieve the influence and commercial value of Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008, so Manchester United will think To get him."

　　 "Well said!" Yang Huan nodded with a smile.

　　 Many of Peter Kenyon’s ideas coincide with him.

　　 And only Mr. Bald, who is so familiar with Manchester United and who has unique insights into football marketing, can say such a thing.

　　 "It's a pity that Manchester United is now in debt, and I am afraid it is not qualified to compete with us!"

　　 Sun Yue laughed and taunted Manchester United.

"As long as Manchester United don't get rid of the heavy debt crisis for a day, it will be difficult to return to the peak of 0809. Chelsea was on the right path, but now Abramovich turns around halfway through, Arsenal and Liverpool can both Ignoring it, Manchester City has not found a business direction so far, and there are many internal problems in the team."

　　 "In the next few years, the Premier League will have no leader and a melee, and this is our opportunity for Southampton to emerge!"

　　 Peter Kenyon said this loudly, and his expression was unspeakably excited.

　　 With a pair of aura eyes, he seemed to see a bright future.
