With the advent of the Africa Cup of Nations, how to let the team smoothly survive the month of the Africa Cup of Nations, so as not to be taken advantage of by competitors to widen the gap in the standings, has become the consensus of all managers who are troubled by this competition!

Tottenham don't need to say much. The presence of Klose and Larsson was enough to see Tottenham through this difficult time. Considering Tottenham's schedule during the Africa Cup of Nations, and Klose and Larsson in good form, George has little to worry about the front line being unavailable!

As for Chelsea, who have been more affected by this, the Blues' response is quite simple, which is to continue to spend money on the transfer market!

However, while Abou has generously expressed his willingness to invest more in the winter transfer window to help the team strengthen their strength, the problem is that Chelsea simply can't find the right players in the transfer market this time!

Chelsea's awkward situation is partly because Jose Mourinho's habit of less rotation has become so common that few players are willing to take the huge risk of being left on the bench by a madman after a month of playing for the Blues, and partly because Chelsea have lacked a CEO with enough connections and skills in European football to help them through this difficult situation, following the sacking of Kenyon.

Just like in previous lives, Chelsea and Manchester United in this life are also in a heated dispute over the final ownership of Nigerian teenager Mikel. Although when the three alliances were formed, Abu, Ferguson, and George reached a private agreement to prohibit malicious competition and mid-course truncation among themselves, Kenyon's character was really not flattering. Knowing that Mikel had initialed his contract with Manchester United, the former Manchester United CEO still chose to cut off his beard and forcibly poached the 05 World Youth Championship Silver Ball winner to Stamford Bridge!

Although, under George's mediation and pressure, Chelsea eventually paid Manchester United a fee of up to £12 million as compensation for the Mikel incident. Coupled with the good enough performance of the midfield composed of Carrick and Hargreaves, George privately recommended several young talents such as Nani and Rakitic to the Lord, which greatly appeased Ferguson's anger at being taken away by Chelsea, which did not let the three leagues that were founded less than two years ago end hastily!

You know, in George's plan, the three alliances of Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester United are an indispensable part of Tottenham's dominance of European football. Only by tying these two clubs and Tottenham into the same vehicle will George be able to lead Tottenham to Champions League glory, rather than devoting his limited energy to endless league infighting.

In George's previous life, the reason why the Premier League repeatedly underperformed in European competitions after a brief period of glory was largely due to the excessive infighting in the league that consumed too much energy from the strong teams - if the Premier League had concentrated resources on supporting a few or even one of the clubs like La Liga and the Bundesliga, then the Premier League teams could definitely dominate the whole of European football as they did in the seventies and eighties of the last century!

It's not like George is out of the question. Don't forget, the time when the Premier League club was at its strongest in Europe was when the "BIG4" dominated the Premier League. Since then, as the internal competition in the Premier League has become more and more fierce, the "BIG4" has lost its monopoly on the Champions League places, and the performance of the Premier League teams in the European competition, especially in the Champions Cup, has begun to decline, and has never regained the glory of the "Three English Battles". Therefore, in George's view, if the Premier League wants to remain strong in Europe, it must implement the existing broadcast fee sharing plan to ensure the overall competitiveness of the Premier League, while trying to avoid the tragic internal friction like in the previous life!

In this way, it is undoubtedly a better choice for several teams to form an alliance of interests, reduce malicious competition between each other, and unify the guns to the outside world to weaken the strength of other competitors!

For Tottenham, it is much better to form an alliance with Chelsea and Manchester United and let these two clubs qualify for the Champions League than to hand over this seat to Liverpool and Arsenal - the Reds are already on the same page as Tottenham because of Gerrard's relationship, not to mention that its top management is really lacking in vision and financial resources are far from being comparable to Manchester United and Chelsea; not to mention, as Tottenham's sworn enemy for a century, George will never pull the Gunners into this alliance dominated by Tottenham!

Therefore, after the Mikel incident, in addition to trying to appease Ferguson and appease the old man's grievances, George also solemnly expressed his dissatisfaction with the incident to Abramovich - forcibly poaching players who have been signed by allies, which is not the proper action of a qualified ally!

If it weren't for George, Abou probably wouldn't have cared about the alliance between Chelsea and Manchester United. In the Russian tycoon's view, if Chelsea want to dominate English and even European football, Manchester United, the old hegemon, will inevitably become an obstacle that must be overcome on the road to dominance. That being the case, it is clearly in Chelsea's immediate interest to defeat them rather than form an alliance with them!

However, George's resolute attitude forced Abu to change his mind. After all, both George's strong background and his strong influence in England and around the world are the forces that the Russian tycoon desperately needs. Therefore, after George made a clear statement, Abu, who had asked for George, immediately decided to give up Kenyon and make every effort to repair relations with Manchester United on the premise of keeping Mikel's fat that has entered his mouth!

In this way, after the dust settles on Mikel's transfer, Kenyon, who is the initiator and culprit of this incident, cannot escape the fate of being settled by the autumn queen!

This time, though, it won't be easy for the Chelsea CEO to find a new job in football. After all, during Chelsea's rise, Kenyon encroached on too many people's interests and undermined too many unspoken rules between clubs. Add to that the lack of a work ethic during his tenure as Chelsea's CEO (note: Kenyon used his knowledge of the Red Devils to move to Stamford Bridge after making the move to Chelsea). This move, which is close to selling for glory, has greatly reduced Kenyon's reputation in the football world. Even the three alliances that George had painstakingly built were nearly ruined by his actions. After so many great deaths, Kenyon will end up like this, which is naturally a reasonable thing!

Not to be immortal, to use this word to describe today's Kenyon is obviously the most appropriate!
