"There are a lot of reporters out there"

In the reception room on the second floor of the Premier League headquarters office, Peter Kenyon walked to the window, glanced at the road downstairs, and found that some reporters who had received the news were waiting at the door, probably waiting for Ye Qiu and the news of the hearing.

"It's really pervasive," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

He really understood the power of British journalists, and in front of this group of reporters, it was almost difficult to have any secrets.

"This is the first time that a hearing has been held since the Home Office issued the approval, and the media attention is understandable," Eliza Moon smiled, "As you said, you were the first person to eat crab, how it tasted, you have to tell someone, right?" ”

Peter Kenyon also laughed when he heard this, and thought Eliza's analogy was very good, "According to the attitude of the judges I just saw, there is a high probability of passing, because we now have two votes, Eriksen and Chris Waddell, and they are also professionals, and they are very heavy, as for the other judges, I think your remarks just now are very convincing." ”

Ye Qiu's words just now neither belittled England's local youth training nor exalted Messi too much, but just elaborated on a thing that is beneficial to English football and all aspects from a more professional perspective, which is easier to get the affirmation and support of the judges.

In the final analysis, the labor certification is to protect your own family, if you criticize their own family, it is impossible for you to be killed, and you will be blacklisted in the future, and you can't exalt others too much, because with the English people have always been arrogant, too elevated others, they will not be convinced at all, and the possibility of causing trouble for you is also very high.

The so-called hearing, in fact, is to give you a chance to convince the U judges, pass, that's it, very subjective things, there are no rules, there are no legal provisions, is to convince them.

"Now there is news from outside, saying that the upper authorities will continue to shoot, and recently they have been inquiring about Rooney, Shevchenko and Nedved, do you know about this?" The waiting time is always very difficult, and Peter Kenyon found a topic.

Although he is not in his position, although he is not nominally Chelsea's CPO, in fact he has put himself in this role, Paul Smith is only his temporary replacement, and in the month, the position is still his, so he must think about Chelsea's future planning.

"I heard," Ye Qiu was a little cold about this topic, "but I haven't received any relevant news." ”

There are a lot of rumors in the transfer market, Chelsea is going to make a move, this is a topic that all the media are hyping up, who is the target, I don't know who to do, Abramovich didn't reveal anything to Ye Qiu, and Ye Qiu couldn't ask, otherwise, he was just busy discussing with Abramovich every day which news was true and which news was false, and it was enough for him to be busy.

Shevchenko, Nedved and Rooney, Ye Qiu has no doubt that these three people are all Abramovic's favor, but whether he made a specific move, Ye Qiu doesn't know, but he believes that if the Russians really make a move, they will definitely notify him, otherwise, wouldn't he, the head coach, become an ornament?

"There is a lot of pressure on the team right now, and I tentatively estimate that the loss this year will be very serious." Peter Kenyon frowned and said he was a professional manager whose task was to take control of Chelsea's operations, make the club profitable and even rebuild a Chelsea empire.

Ye Qiu smiled, of course he knew that most of the losses came from his own operations, "Before I came to Chelsea, I asked Abramovich, excellent results and stable club operations, he chose the former, and even gave me a transfer budget of 300 million euros, but I only spent more than 100 million." ”

"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to blame you at all," Peter Kenyon quickly explained, "I just think that continuing like this is not the way to go, I originally wanted to break even in three years, but if I continue to spend money like this, it will not be possible at all." ”

The pressure on the manager comes from the results, the pressure on the CPO comes from the business situation, Peter Kenyon is ambitious to rebuild a Chelsea empire to prove his strength, but when he came to Chelsea, he found it very difficult.

Eliza, who was on the side, listened to it and joined the chat, proposing: "Why do you seem to be completely ignoring the management of the home atmosphere?" Even Manchester United, which claims to be the best in business operations, is actually not ideal for the operation of its home stadium, is it because of the success of overseas markets? ”

Peter Kenyon had heard of Eliza Moon, and knew that although this woman was too beautiful to resist, she was actually a very shrewd agent and was very famous in the circle, so after hearing her inquiry, he thought about it very seriously.

"I think there are a lot of reasons, compared to Manchester United and other Premier League teams, there is a clear difference is that there are a lot of professional management talents, other Premier League teams, even including Chelsea, apart from Paul Smith, how many do you count?"

"You know, a club's stadium advertising and sponsorship income is very important, and the derived peripheral goods are also a million profits, but if we look at other teams in the Premier League, in addition to scarves or scarves, in addition to jerseys and jerseys, there is no way to diversify the market, and in the final analysis, there is still a lack of professional talent."

Peter Kenyon shook his head when he said this, "I talked to Abramovich about this before, and I also hope that in the next period of time, I can further recruit professionals from all walks of life to strengthen the team's operation team and further improve the team's operation ability." ”

After hearing this, Eliza shook her head, "I think what you are talking about is only one aspect, and the other side is more complicated, the lack of management talent makes the Premier League seem to be infinite on the surface, attracting the attention of fans all over the world, but the club lacks to convert this attention into economic income." ”

Peter Kenyon listened and nodded repeatedly.

"But on the other hand, the local market is extremely deteriorating, many clubs, except for Manchester United and Arsenal, almost all clubs are listed, after listing, the football club is no longer a football club, but a listed company, listed companies have to consider profits, consider stock price fluctuations, for the sake of immediate interests, give up long-term slow operations, those who serve fans, thankless things are not there, which is easy for these clubs to embark on a vicious circle of business model, And in fact, the Premier League's dependence on broadcast fees is terrible right now"

"Yes" Peter Kenyon nodded incessantly, "Many clubs mortgage player ownership and home income to the bank in exchange for investment in reinforcements, which is a deformed model in itself, but the money comes quickly, and the results are fast, but on the other hand, after the introduction of players, the results are not good, but the results are good, but there are no professionals to transform the benefits brought by the improvement of the results into a powerful weapon to improve the team's operating income, and then promote the club's operation to improve, and finally become bad results, unsatisfactory management, and good results." , the operation is still not ideal. ”

Eliza thinks Peter Kenyon's analysis is very to her own taste, "After I came to the Premier League, I really found that the development potential of the Premier League is still very big, but too many fools have wasted this potential in vain" After speaking, this Nizi pouted very arrogantly, full of disdain.

Peter Kenyon looked at Eliza with interest, not admiring her stunning beauty, but her talent, "If you weren't an agent, I would have poached you into Chelsea's management with a high salary, and it wouldn't be too much to give you a CPO." ”

Although Eliza didn't say much, she was to the point, and it could be heard from her words that she still had a lot of ideas and opinions that she hadn't said, which showed that this person was indeed a very powerful management talent.

Eliza shook her head, "Even if I wasn't an agent, I wouldn't have gone to Chelsea." ”

"For what?" Peter Kenyon is a little weird.

Eliza shook her head, "It's just a feeling, I don't like Abramovich, I think he's a wolf"

After Peter Kenyon heard this, he immediately looked at Ye Qiu, and found that the latter was smiling, and suddenly wondered in his heart, could it be that Abramovich has taken a fancy to this beautiful agent?

"Don't get me wrong" Eliza saw Ye Qiu smile, and immediately knew that he had been misunderstood, "The reason why I say he is a wolf is because he is very possessive, I believe that he will not trust anyone except himself, and although he has deliberately lowered his posture after several contacts, I have the feeling that he believes in a principle, that is, there is nothing in this world that money can't do, I don't like such people"

Peter Kenyon frowned when he heard this, and Ye Qiu deliberately coughed a few times for the first time, both of them had embarrassed faces, and it was not good to comment on their boss to outsiders, which was very ungentlemanly.

"Why does it take so long to have a discussion behind closed doors?" Ye Qiu stood up depressedly and interrupted Eliza's words.

Peter Kenyon also stood up with a smile, "yes, it's been more than half an hour, it's really grinding, I'll take a look." With that, he walked out of the reception room.

On the contrary, it was Eliza, who pursed her lips and glared at Ye Qiu coquettishly over there, "Two cowards"

Ye Qiu was depressed, "Miss, hold the bowl to eat meat, put down the bowl and scold my mother, I really can't do this kind of thing."

Anyway, he is also working for Abramovich now, and it is never a gentleman to say that his boss is behind his back, and to be honest, he is not very familiar with Peter Kenyon.

"Don't you see that he wants to get close to you? Give him some heartfelt words, not only will he not say anything, but he will be closer to you. Eliza has her own set of reasoning and ideas, "And I bet you that in less than five years, he will fall out with Abramovich, because they are two types of people."

The so-called two types of people, Eliza's meaning is already clear, Abramovich believes in the principle of money, which is probably related to his background and rise, to put it mildly, he is a nouveau riche, while Peter Kenyon believes in a healthy and healthy economy.

The former is relatively fast, and if you spend money, it will be effective in one or two years, but the latter is slower, but it is more durable.

But the problem is that a lot of times, the upper echelons don't necessarily have the patience to wait for you to take your time, they like to be fast

Ye Qiu thought about it carefully, it seems that the two people who are the best at management in the Premier League, David Dunn and Peter Kenyon are the most disgraced and down, from this point it can also be seen that the so-called Premier League prosperity, in fact, the bubble is still very big, and if one is not handled carefully, it is likely to lead to a complete collapse.

As for Peter Kenyon wanting to get close to Ye Qiu, it is not surprising, because Ye Qiu is now the number one leader in Athletic, and Chelsea's matters related to Athletic are all decided by him, and once Peter Kenyon launches any business strategy in the future, when Ye Qiu needs to nod, it will naturally be more convenient to have a good personal relationship

Just as Ye Qiu and Eliza finished speaking, Peter Kenyon, who had just gone out, came back, accompanied by Eriksen and Chris Waddell, as well as Premier League CEO Richard Scudmore, and from Peter Kenyon's cheerful smile, they all knew that Messi's labor certificate was in hand

Regarding the fact that the U judges of the hearing finally passed Ye Qiu's appeal and let the Argentine teenager Messi get the Premier League labor certificate, Ye Qiu gave a high degree of affirmation when he went downstairs and was intercepted by the British media, thinking that this matter was a huge progress for the Premier League.

"Leo is a very good talent, he has excellent skills, he is very good in passing and passing, he is still very young, only 16 years old, but I believe he will bring a huge help to the team, and I will continue to give him and other other talented rookies more and more consistent opportunities to play in the future, to give them a better environment and training."

"The emergence of the special talent clause can avoid the loss of Premier League talent to the greatest extent, and I believe that in the future, talented players like Messi will have the opportunity to enter the Premier League through this clause, and I also believe that with the influx of more and more excellent players, the Premier League will become more and more competitive."

They've given you a labor certification, so you have to say a few good words anyway, right?

Returning to Harrington training base with good news, Ye Qiu asked Roland to inform Messi as soon as possible to prepare for the Carabao Cup home game against Notts County the day after tomorrow, as well as Fabregas, Van Persie, Sun Jihai, Scott Parker, Joe Cole, Ribery and Robert Hout and other substitutes and young players in the team, and the substitute goalkeeper Cudicini, who has not played so far this season, also got the start.

Although there were not many Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge in October, this group of young players was still very excited, not at all disappointed because the opponent was Notts County, but they were all very excited.

As soon as the game began, Chelsea's youngsters showed their skills, especially Lionel Messi, who made everyone's eyes shine as he played as a left winger, and with his first touch of the game, the Argentine came with a beautiful backheel knock down the left flank.

However, it is a pity that not many people watched the game at the scene, and there was no live broadcast of this game, so this scene could only win sparse applause, but Ye Qiu's affirmation on the sidelines made Messi even more excited.

Messi performed well, and the other youngsters were not to be outdone.

In the ll minute, Cesc Fabregas got a pass from Scott Parker near the center circle, and a precise through ball was just right to the feet of Van Persie in the front, who was very skillful in using the stop to turn around, bypassing the central defenders of Notts County, and took a few steps with the ball, and hit it directly, 0

Immediately afterwards, Joe Cole and Messi combined one-two, the Argentine crossed diagonally behind the Notts County defence, Ribery used his speed to quickly insert the ball and barely got his feet, but the last shot was a lot wide of the goal, wasting a chance.

Messi himself quickly used a dribble to break into the penalty area on the left side, but the follow-up shot was soft, did not hit the strength, and was directly held in the palm of the opponent's goalkeeper.

It wasn't until the 36th minute of the first half that Joe Cole took advantage of a late insertion opportunity to get a cross from Son Jihai on the right and volleyed in the box unmarked to give Chelsea another goal, 0

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and Chelsea remained firmly in control of the situation.

Because he was compared by Ye Qiu with Zola in the hearing, after the outflow, Messi, who was hailed by the media as the new Zola, broke through at high speed on the left side in the first minute and gave the ball to Van Persie, who was pulled to the side, and then chose to cut from the left side to the middle, Van Persie knocked back, and the two had a clever two-by-one cooperation.

After Messi got the ball, he pulled the opponent's central defender out and distributed it to the right side of the penalty area, Ribery entered the penalty area from the right rib, and after getting the ball, he used his speed to shake off the opponent's goalkeeper and pushed the empty goal, 0

Chelsea then relented and Notts County launched a comeback and pulled a goal back in the 73rd minute.

But in the 75th minute, Joe Cole made a wonderful pass to the penalty area, Van Persie picked the ball but was knocked to the ground by the opponent's goalkeeper, the referee sentenced the opponent's goalkeeper to a malicious foul and sentenced him to death, red card and penalty, Van Persie calmly hit the penalty, 4L

After that, Ye Qiu made another substitution, all of them were young rookies from Chelsea, and the score of 4L was maintained until the end of the game, and Chelsea relied on this group of substitutes and rookies to reach the round of 16 of the League Cup.

It was also the substitutes and youth team players who played, Arsenal finally lost 0l at home to Rotherham, the League Cup stopped strong, and Manchester United was also not happy, losing away to Leeds United, but failed to break this hurdle.

As a result, only Chelsea have reached the round of 16 among the top three teams in the Premier League standings, and Chelsea's young players have naturally won the recognition of the media, especially Messi and Cesc Fabregas, the two 16-year-olds, who can be said to have become famous and become the new hope of Chelsea fans.
