Chapter 2 The money is the club's, and the results are their own

Simon? Grayson asked the club to make an offer of only £80 million for Shaq, which really scared a group of people, but he was so sure that Russell only thought about it a little and felt that there must be a reason he didn't know.

As a successful head coach and pioneered the "solar system tactics", Simon? How could Grayson not go out of his way to ensure that Shaq would play under him?

When he left Manchester United to coach England, Simon? Grayson left himself a back door, his "solar system tactics" must have Shaq play under him as a premise, no matter which team he coaches, what he wants first is Shaq, when he added more than 50 million pounds to Shaq's contract, it must depend on the player's personal opinion, Simon? Grayson was ready for the future.

Of course, if Shaq had a good time at Manchester United, maybe the kid wouldn't have left Manchester United, but the current situation is that Shaq is not very comfortable under Ryan Giggs, and Simon? Grayson also considered that if it wasn't for Shaq's loyalty to him before the World Cup, he would not necessarily choose to go to Spain to coach Barcelona right now.

Simon? Grayson took his team and Russell directly to Spain, and now it was the middle of July, and there was not a lot of time left for them, and the trivial matters of moving or something could only be postponed, and it was true that they could get to work as soon as possible.

Today's Barcelona can indeed no longer be compared with the original "Universe Team", the original group of invincible divisions composed of Messi, Xavi, Iniesta and others has lost to a common enemy of all athletes...... Time.

Simon? As soon as Gray and his team arrived in Barcelona, they were discovered by La Masia and your media, and then the news ......of "Brutal Simon" entering the Camp Nou spread!

The owner of the Camp Nou was replaced by Simon, who had just led LinkedIn Gran to lift the Hercules Cup? Grayson. This news caused a shock in the entire European football world, the Spanish media are exclaiming "the wolf is coming" and "Barcelona is rising", the English media is shouting happily, and even Mourinho, Van Gaal and others are all gearing up to do a big job.

Simon? Grayson has been in charge of the England team for two years, but in the past two years, the "Red Devils" still firmly dominate the Premier League, and their four consecutive titles have firmly suppressed the city's rivals Manchester City, Leeds United, Chelsea, Liverpool and other teams. There is only one reason in the end...... Sark!

Now Simon? Grayson has started to coach Barcelona, and it would be a fool to think that Shaq will stay at Manchester United!

Manchester United fans have also said that they do not want to lose the club's all-time top scorer Shaq, who has scored 436 goals for Manchester United and has already become the most goalscorer in Manchester United history.

But something...... It cannot be transferred by human will, what should happen must happen!

Barcelona's offer of up to £80 million activates the clause in Shaq's contract that is close to liquidated damages, but they still have to pay a lot of money to get Shaq, just to pay Shaq personally and Glenn? Oxley alone spent more than 60 million euros. Later, he gave Shaq a five-year contract with an annual salary of 31 million euros after tax, as well as various bonuses, which allowed Shaq to sign his name on the new contract.

At present, Barcelona's highest salary Messi is 15.5 million euros after tax, Neymar is 12.5 million euros, and the addition of Shaq suddenly got twice the salary of Messi, which also makes Barcelona's salary burden very serious.

In this regard, Simon, who has already taken the reins of the team from Russell? Grayson wasn't polite at all. The high-paid players in the team should take a pay cut, and sell what they should sell. As soon as he and his team arrived in Barcelona, the purge began, with Pedro, Andres Iniesta, Kompany, Sanchez, Mascherano and Pique all thrown into the transfer market.

And then Simon? Grayson has started a large-scale salary cut again, and he needs to have a more generous salary budget to sign the players he needs. Parker and other veterans, including Ganso and Rivero, are all on the verge of expiring contracts with Manchester United. Barcelona doesn't even need to pay a transfer fee, so naturally they have to pay a higher salary.

Krissettig was originally in Simon? Grayson's men are simply the reincarnation of Pirlo, but in the hands of Ryan Giggs, his form has deteriorated, and he has not played in the main team since he was injured in the game against Juventus, and is now marginalized by Manchester United. Want to go to Simon? Grayson's mood was quite urgent.

As for Ben? Parker is Simon? Grayson's former favourite, when he was in charge of Leeds United, Ben? Parker and Jonny? The two Hausen were his two favorite players before Shaq didn't show up.

In the salary reduction movement, Cesc Fabregas is indeed worthy of being the player who paid out of his own pocket to return to Barcelona, he has a very deep affection for Barcelona, just asked for a contract period, and reduced his salary from 12.5 million euros to 8.75 million euros, which also made Simon? Grayson's cold heart was touched.

As for Messi, this state has long ceased to be the brave Argentine, and now he doesn't want to do anything other than ask for a high salary, not only asking for a salary increase, but also threatening a transfer, which makes Simon angry? Grayson didn't hesitate to throw him into the transfer list.

Simon, already furious? Grayson was already carried away, turned his head and threw Pique, who had struggled a little more to improve his salary, into the transfer list.

It's only half a month, Simon? Grayson put almost all of Barcelona's old courtiers on the purge list, except for Valdés, Crisitto, Rafael, Acosta, Montoya, Vasquis, Neymar, Bojan, Salomon These are all Simon? Grayson threw in the transfer list.

The La Masians were prepared for how ruthless Simon could be, but it wasn't until they saw their team almost completely dismantled that they knew they were underestimating just how brutal the World Cup-winning coach was.

Russell is even more worried about Simon? Grayson's one-size-fits-all approach will cause dissatisfaction among fans. Grayson communicates. Hoping to make some amends, only to get Simon? Grayson replied coolly: "I'm only responsible for the team's results, as for those feelings and stuff, you deal with it." ”

After receiving this answer, Rosar also felt helpless, and for the first time he felt regretful, as if it was not a wise choice to invite "Cruel Simon"!

Good thing Simon? Grayson still knows how to calm the emotions of the fans. Shaq has already transferred from Manchester United for 80 million pounds and 92 million euros, and then the good news from Barcelona one after another, which simply smashed the fans of La Masia.

Ganso and Rivero will join on a free transfer, Simon? Grayson's charisma is vividly reflected.

And then--

Dynamo Kyiv goalkeeper Kovar joins for 8 million euros!

Ayew came from Arsenal for 11.75 million euros!

Krissettig was sold to Barcelona by Manchester United for 5.75 million euros!

Root? Parker rejoins his mentor for 40 million euros!

German goalkeeper Mark has been transferred from Leeds United for 18 million euros!

Italian talented player "Little Pharaoh" Shaarawy switched from Villarreal to Camp Nou for 14.25 million euros!

Also, Simon? Grayson bought 21-year-old talented Spanish centre-back Pedro from Sevilla for another 31 million euros? Batista!

When the time entered the middle of August, Barcelona spent 220 million euros in the transfer market, swallowing ten stars in one go, if it were not for Ganso and Rivero to sign for free, Barcelona would have spent close to 300 million euros in transfer fees.

Such a huge financial investment. Let Russell also give an account to Barcelona fans, under the banner of "reviving the king's wind", Rusell appeased La Masia fans very well, which can be seen from the club's season ticket sales of 84,000 copies, obviously Barcelona fans who have been tortured enough by the team's results in recent years now only look at the team's results, as for the tradition of La Masia's academy...... To hell with the!

There is a prerequisite for the pursuit of tradition, that is, the team's results must be guaranteed, and now there is no guarantee of results. Even in the Champions League, it has not been to the Champions League final for seven years, and it would be foolish to stick to tradition.

Besides. Although "Brutal Simon" is indeed iron-blooded and cold-hearted, his team's achievements really don't need to be doubted, and his "solar system tactics" can also bring enjoyment to supporters, the team plays well, and can win championships. That's all that matters.

If there is investment in the transfer market, there must be a return, in the player purge, Barcelona has also made several big deals, Sanchez transferred to Manchester United with 50 million euros is the highest transfer fee, and Messi, who went to Atletico Madrid, earned 35 million euros for Barcelona to come back. Kompany was also bought by Manchester United for 10.5 million euros, Pedro was bought by Manchester City for 13.25 million euros, and Barcelona temporarily recovered more than 110 million euros in the transfer market, which can be regarded as subsidizing the finances.

But even so, Barcelona's net investment in the transfer market still exceeds 110 million euros!

Such a crazy burning of money really made Russell feel a thrill, not to mention that the transfer market has not closed yet, Simon? Grayson still has a lot of money to squander, and he may be going to release another bombshell at any point.

Obviously, Simon? Grayson's understanding of the phrase "money belongs to the club, and results are your own" is really thorough!
