Volume 1 Chapter 244 Meritorious Shocking Lord
"This Ye Qiu is indeed powerful, looking at today's European football, who can do better than him?"
In one of the VIP boxes at Highbury Stadium, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich smiled from ear to ear when he heard the referee blow the whistle at the end of the first half, he didn't expect that Ye Qiu would bring him such a huge surprise in just a few months.
The opening streak of victories has shocked the whole of Europe, no, the whole world, who else can compare to Chelsea?
Thinking of Ye Qiu's self-confidence at the beginning, he would be able to build another wealthy family if he gave money and time, and he was full of pride, although Abramovich was optimistic about him at the beginning, he didn't think it was so fast, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, he did it.
Chelsea are not yet giants, but they are the most high-profile team in Europe, beating countless giants
Originally, Abramovich gave Ye Qiu a transfer budget of 300 million euros, but in the end, he left more than half of it, saying that he wanted to support the team to build the Cobham training base, which was also completely constructed in accordance with Ye Qiu's requirements and plans, and will benefit the future of Chelsea.
"Ye Qiu is indeed very good, but that's also Roman You have a vision at the beginning, so many handsomes don't choose him" Pini Zahavipi, who was sitting next to Abramovich, said with a smile on the side, especially when talking about Ye Qiu, what was in his eyes was not friendship and approval, but a deeply hidden jealousy.
"Don't praise me, I know my own things, when I said I wanted to buy Belon, Ye Qiu refused, thinking that Belon was not suitable for his tactics, so he decided to introduce Deco, you see, Deco's performance is much better than Veron's now, and sometimes we have to admire the vision of a professional coach." Abramovich laughed and praised.
He didn't notice that when he mentioned Peron, Pini Zahavi's eyes were visibly gloomy.
The Israelis now have a very sad and angry, but very helpless feeling, he feels as if he has worked hard to pick up girls, and finally succeeded in proposing, but the result is that other men have entered the cave room and robbed the bride, but he has no place to cry
Before he did everything possible to curry favor and instigate Abramovich, he hoped to use the strength of Russia's super-rich to raise his influence to a higher level.
At the beginning, the Brazilian Figer was known as the godfather, and almost all Brazilian players came out of the country through his connections, and almost everyone thought that he could not fall like the Argentine agent predator Muscati, but now? Figer is already clearly out of popularity, and in a few years, perhaps Figer will follow in Muscati's footsteps.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, this is a football trend, but also the sadness of the agent.
Pini Zahavi just wants to get on Abramovich's thigh, moving from buying and selling players to buying and selling teams, and after Abramovich bought Chelsea, he hopes he can be Chelsea's only partner in the key position of transferring and buying players.
Therefore, after Abramovich bought Chelsea and invited Ye Qiu to coach, he took the initiative to propose to Abramovich to bring in Veron and Crespo, these two players are now on very good terms with him, and Abramovich has also seen the former.
Unexpectedly, he persuaded the Russians, but was directly stopped by Ye Qiu, Veron went to Inter Milan, Crespo did not come to Chelsea, but introduced a black, little-known Drogba, and Deco from Porto.
If Chelsea's performance is a little worse, Pini Zahavi will be better, but what is worse is that today's Chelsea is really as Ye Qiu said, sweeping the entire Europa League, winning consecutive games in all competitions, just for this amazing record, who dares to question Ye Qiu?
Pini Zahavi can't get benefits from the formation of Chelsea, but Ye Qiu's beautiful agent, Eliza Moon, this young woman is really powerful enough, directly involved in every transfer of Chelsea, not to mention the benefits, but also further expanded her business, although on the surface it is not famous, and fans generally do not know her, but in the circle, she is already one of the most famous agent companies in Europe.
In the end, the foundation he worked so hard to build became someone else's wedding dress, and Pini Zahavi's mood can be imagined, if it weren't for the two transfers of Joe Cole and Scott Parker to talk about masturbation, he would have been excluded from Chelsea's inner circle at all.
However, Pini Zahavi is a human spirit, he can get to this day, but it is not by luck, he knows how to read words and feelings, and he also knows how to get along with people, when to endure and when to retaliate, he knows very well.
"Roman, don't be too modest, although Ye Qiu is indeed a very good head coach, but you are not bad, boldly delegating power, not to mention, but also entrusting him with important tasks, without your trust and support, it is impossible for him to have his current momentum"
After a pause, Pini Zahavi smiled, "Now there is almost no one in the whole of Europe who does not give Ye Qiu's Chelsea a thumbs up, if he wins the championship again, his momentum will be even greater than now"
Abramovich's original smiling expression was a little stiff after listening to Pini Zahavi's words, especially when he heard Ye Qiu's Chelsea, which made him feel very possessive, and he only felt very comfortable.
"We still need him now" Abramovich quickly showed a smile again, but the smile was somewhat devoid of the heartfelt joy before, because he knew very well that everyone now only knew Ye Qiu, but not Abramovich.
It's not that Ye Qiu is stealing the limelight everywhere, but the media likes to chase him, plus the Premier League has always attached importance to the tradition of head coaches.
Pini Zahavi knows how to read words, and he has been keeping an eye on Abramovich's face, this shrewd businessman knows Abramovich very well, even better than those professional managers, which is why he can accompany Abramovich to the Highbury box to watch the game, while the club's agent CPOf Paul Smith can only sit in the business table outside, even if it is difficult for Peter Kenyon, who is poached from Manchester United in the future, to sit in it.
As a successful person like Abramovich, he has a strong possessive desire, and his purpose in coming to the Premier League is also very obvious, which is to boost his influence in the places of Europeans, but now the situation seems to be a bit the opposite, although his popularity has soared, but almost most people will think of Ye Qiu when they mention Chelsea.
It's a very contradictory complex, Abramovich doesn't want to show himself all the time, but on the other hand, he wants everyone to know him, know him, and even praise him.
The high merit will inevitably shake the master
That's why everyone will say that there is no room for a second Ferguson in today's football
"I think that after Peter Kenyon arrives, the power structure of the troika that we have planned before will still be implemented, you know, when the power is monopolized by one person, especially this person can leave at any time and anywhere, this is a big taboo for you and for the team," Pini Zahavi said lightly.
Abramovich looked at the bottom of the court, his brows were tightly locked, there was no expression, but he showed a trace of it very coldly, and he couldn't tell whether it was a sneer or a joking smile, "You are too careful, Pini, Ye Qiu said that he will stay at Chelsea for a long time, and you see, he has poached two more young players from Barcelona, the meaning is very clear, I believe he will not leave." ”
Zahavi accepted it when he saw it, he just wanted to plant a seed in Abramovich's heart, "that's naturally the best"
That was the end of the topic, and neither of them continued to say anything more.
"By the way, Pini, have you seen Wayne Rooney at Everton lately?" Abramovich asked.
Pini Zahavi nodded, the agent in the Premier League did not pay attention to him, it was definitely a failure, because after Owen gradually lost his golden boy halo, Rooney took advantage of the trend and became the new hope of England fans, Manchester United and Arsenal, the two giants, are rushing to ask for him, it depends on who wins.
"It is estimated that if you want to get him, it will be about 35UU million pounds." Pini Zahavi said.
"So tall?" Abramovich was a little surprised, because he recently went to Juventus through Pini Zahavi to learn about Nedved's market, although Moggi denied that he had contact with Abramovich on the surface, but an Italian agent revealed that the price was 30UU million pounds, that is, about 45UU million euros, and Juventus would release him.
AC Milan's Shevchenko is Abramovich's hometown, and he also wants to get Ukrainian nuclear warheads, AC Milan refused to negotiate, but Pini Zahavi said that if the bid is right, it is not completely unnegotiable, but the price will definitely be 50UU million euros higher.
In this way, isn't Rooney's worth about the same as Shevchenko?
"You know, that's how much money you pay for your local account in England," Pini Zahavi said with a smile.
Abramovich shook his head helplessly and amusefully, "Damn and cute Englishman"
The start of the second half was still a stalemate in the first half.
However, there is a clear sign that Chelsea's defence is no longer as close as it was in the first half, but Arsenal are still showing no signs of counter-attacking and their attack is still lacking in lethal threat.
But when Chelsea wanted to slow down the tempo appropriately, Arsenal suddenly launched a wave of attack, directly speeding up the tempo and creating two chances, in the 54th and 57th minutes, Gilberto Silva and Pire's long-range shots went directly into Van der Sar's arms and failed to create a threat.
But this speed made Ye Qiu feel bad.
Chelsea's squad are all internationals and have played in two international games during the two-week international break, and combined with the back-and-forth and training camps for the national team, they are not in good form at all.
Of course, Arsenal and Chelsea are also the biggest victims of the national team, but the problem is that Arsenal's players are obviously more tacit, they play together longer and cooperate more skillfully, while Ye Qiu's Chelsea has just been formed, once the physical fitness declines, the shortcomings of lack of tacit understanding will be magnified, and their cooperation with each other is prone to problems.
"He looks like he's grabbed us by the tail," Tenkat said with a laugh.
"If you haven't seen it until now, if you haven't found a solution, then Wenger is not Wenger"
Ye Qiu has never treated Wenger as a fool, on the contrary, Wenger is definitely a respectable opponent, even if it has always been his weakness to command on the spot, but that is also relative to the top coaches, for others, Wenger is excellent.
"Let Garras warm up, McConn's physical fitness is obviously not good," Ye Qiu shook his head and said.
Sun Jihai also played the national team game, running back and forth, his physical fitness was also not good, Ye Qiu did not plan to use him in this game, French defender William Gallas can be qualified for multiple positions in the left center and right of the back line at the same time, and it is just now to play a dozen on the right side.
But not long after Ye Qiu let Gallas go out to warm up, Arsenal launched an attack on the left side.
After Pirere pulled to the left touchline to receive the ball, he kicked the ball forward, and Henry, who was pulled to the side and ready to respond, retreated from the front, leaving McConn, who was physically weak and obviously unable to keep up with his beat, and knocked back to Pire, who ran to the gap in the middle, and then quickly inserted himself into the penalty area.
Pire didn't stick to the ball again after winning the ball, and pushed it directly to the feet of Bergkamp, the Dutch Ice Prince passed to Ljungberg on the right, and the Swede inserted into the box and fired a low shot without stopping.
Van der Sar has been shifting and changing his position with Arsenal's passing and receiving cooperation, and his performance in this game was very steady, repeatedly resolving Arsenal's attacking crisis, but this time Arsenal's passing and receiving coordination was really fast, and Chelsea's left and right ribs were hit with a gap.
When Ljungberg got up, Van der Sar instinctively made a flying pounce, and did save the ball, but he couldn't save it far, and the ball fell to the left of the penalty spot, at which time Henry, who had just sprinted in from outside the box, directly met the incoming ball and fired the ball into the empty net.
McConn, who was chasing Henry, was panting, his eyes straight as he watched the Frenchman who had scored the rebound raise his arms and shouted, he had an urge to fall on the pitch, because he chased hard, but he couldn't catch up with Henry's speed.
'Thierry Henry, the king of Highbury, equalised for Arsenal'
The on-site narrator shouted very excitedly and excitedly.
"Arsenal's attacking coordination was very beautiful, and very quickly, from the left side to the right side, Chelsea, who had defended Arsenal throughout the game, finally showed a flaw this time, strictly speaking, this is one of the few mistakes in this game, and the only fatal mistake, but it was caught by Arsenal."
'Throughout the game, Arsenal and Chelsea didn't make many mistakes in this game, Chelsea only made one fatal mistake, Arsenal had two, but both teams took their chances, only Chelsea wasted one, and now the situation is obviously more unfavorable for Chelsea because their players are obviously not fit.
"Of course, Arsenal players are also facing a lack of fitness, and the impact on them during the national team break is still very obvious, which is why Gl4 has recently put pressure and complaints on UEFA."
After seeing Arsenal equalize, Ye Qiu exhaled heavily, because he could see that the team had lost the ability to beat Arsenal, so he quickly replaced McConn with Gallas, and then replaced Deco with Ribery to bring Lampard's position back.
After two successive substitutions, Chelsea's overall formation gradually retreated.
Ribery is the first time to appear in such an important game, he has appeared several times this season, basically as a substitute, the performance is average, not good or bad, this appearance makes him very excited, but Arsenal is not a fuel-efficient lamp, Ye Qiu asked Ribery to pull to the side to get the ball, but the Frenchman failed to create a threat in the end.
The only bright spot was in the first minute, eight minutes after Arsenal's equaliser, when Franck Ribery took advantage of Arsenal's left-back Ashley Cole on the right to press the gap left behind by the attack, and after Chelsea broke the ball, he quickly slashed in and formed an anti-offside position.
This time the quick counterattack, Ribery's explosiveness was very obvious, but immediately after, Ribery insisted on advancing with the ball on the side, and did not form an internal cut to echo Drogba, wasting a God-given opportunity.
France's Scarface crossed from the right, Drogba was caught left and right by Kolo Toure and Campbell in the penalty area, although he grabbed the spot, but was saved by goalkeeper Lehmann in time and failed to play hard.
This made Ye Qiu on the sidelines want to scold his mother, because such an excellent opportunity was wasted by these two guys.
But Ye Qiu was not discouraged, and immediately replaced Gudjohnsen with Joe Cole and continued to strengthen the attack.
Chelsea's players are not physically fit, Arsenal's players are not much better, both teams are 50 steps and 100 steps, no one takes advantage, but Chelsea's players are obviously more physically advantageous, so after replacing Joe Cole, Chelsea began to regain the advantage of the game.
On the contrary, Arsenal, who played at home, saw that Chelsea still did not give up attacking and began to strengthen their own defense, Sigan replaced Pire, Parlour also replaced Ljungberg, and Edu also came on......
In the end, Chelsea failed to break through Arsenal's goal again, Ye Qiu and Wenger's first direct conversation, and finally ended in a draw, which made both sides satisfied, because Chelsea was playing away, and Wenger stopped Chelsea's 8-game winning streak, so that the impact of Chelsea's heavy vehicle was contained
I just believe that after the game, the media will continue to hype the Premier League's Coach of the Month curse and Chelsea's 13-year winless spell against Arsenal.
