Section 511 Management of Manchester United

u8 update fastest reading network "To be honest, I still don't know what the boss you contacted was for."

At Manchester United at this moment, when Ferguson spoke, his tone was with some obvious dissatisfaction, and he didn't know whether it was for the new owner Glazer or for Given, "He has no money, he doesn't understand football, he doesn't have anything, what do we want him to do?" ”

"Sir, I have a question for you." Given's accusation against him is not angry, although as a club coach, others are worried that the boss has fired him, but this one thinks about the idea of firing the boss, which sounds very weird, but Given's not thinking it is strange at all, for Manchester United, this coach, it is possible to blow anyone away, "Do you think, as a club, the best club in England, Manchester United is short of money?" ”

Ferguson thought for a moment before he spoke, "It's not lacking, I don't bother to ask about the club's finances, but when I asked for money to buy people, it was still happy, and the team shouldn't be short of money, right?" ”

"There is no shortage of money." Givens nodded, "Then, let me ask again: Sir, as the management of the club, what is the most afraid of encountering?" ”

"What do you want to say?" Ferguson asked rhetorically.

"What we are most afraid of is that we are afraid of meeting people who don't understand and blindly commanding. As a team, we're not afraid to spend money, we're not afraid to spend the wrong money, money, it's nothing to us. But what we fear is that the team buys the wrong person, disrupts the dressing room, or has a tactical problem. Right? ”

Ferguson nodded. The foundation of a team is competition, and without competitive results, everything is nonsense. Money, you can earn if you spend it wrong, and if you lose the game, you will be in big trouble.

"These people from the Glazer family have no money." Given's mouth was very straightforward, "Their family runs a supermarket chain, and they mortgaged the supermarket to buy Manchester United in exchange for a loan." Not to mention that they don't have the money to recruit them, they even have to take the money to repay the loan from Manchester United's profits. ”

'But even so, I still think they are the best owners in the Premier League. The reason is simple: they don't interfere in the club's management. They have a very wise idea: leave the professional things to the professional people to do the work. And we're the professionals they identify. In other words, although we can't get enough money from them, our money is up to us. ”

"Who's money isn't up to them."

"Is Mourinho the final say on Chelsea's money?" Given's question was immediately asked, "Liverpool's money, Benitez said it may not be counted." Abu and Pari will cause trouble for them, but we don't have to worry about that. One of the major hidden dangers of commercialisation is that it will inevitably lead to the regularisation of a club's management, and standardized management, in a sense, undermines the tradition of the Premier League and reduces the authority of the manager. ”

When Given's words came to this, he was a little excited, "I've thought about this question many times, how to combine commercialization and institutionalization? After thinking about it, I came up with a theory: we should not think of football clubs as for-profit institutions, but as scientific research institutions. We are not a group of money-makers, we are experts in the study of the sport of football. The most important thing in engaging in scientific research is not funding, but a stable development time and environment. ”

"That's what you use to talk to Americans?"

"I've told a lot of people that Americans believe me." Givens replied, "Sir, I hope you believe me, too. Glazer doesn't have any money, but they trust us and they are willing to give us a lot of confidence and tolerance. We can go and build Manchester United the way we want it without worrying too much finger-pointing and pressure, which is more important than anything else. ”

This also made Ferguson think.

Manchester United are not short of money.

Ferguson certainly understands this question. As one of the best commercialized clubs in the world, Manchester United has never had to worry about money. Manchester United has a lot of income, which is rare in the top five leagues, the advantage of English, Manchester United's club status, and the style of focusing on publicity, which makes Manchester United benefit amazingly. And they don't have the same exorbitant salary payouts as Real Madrid, so they actually have enough money to spend.

But money can't solve everything. The biggest fear of a team is never that it runs out of money and brings in the wrong people.

For a team, there is no money, and there is a way to make up for it. If you can't afford Owen, you can at least buy a Bellamy, and if you can't afford Essien, you can make do with Park Ji-sung. I can't afford Ashley Cole, so I can at least hold Del Horno for a while.

But when you are forced into someone who does not match the tactics, the trouble is big. Is it necessary to use such a person? If so, how to use it? They don't fit in with the team's tactics at all, and it's wrong to use them. If not, how can you explain it to your boss?

Chelsea had this problem last season, when the best shè player in the Eredivisie was brought in, but it didn't work out with Mourinho's tactics at all, and it never worked. This season, they brought back Crespo, who was also a man who didn't fit the demand. Similarly, Liverpool brought in Fowler, a buyer who had nothing to do with what Benitez had asked for. And they are still thinking about buying Irving, which is another signing that Benitez does not want. The harm of these reinforcements is far greater than the lack of money, because these people will have a very far-reaching negative impact on tactics.

Not everyone can do what an Italian coach does, especially if he has a passion for results. Even a well-known good gentleman like Carlo Ancelotti had to deceive when he encountered such a situation. Because Berlusconi wanted to see two strikers, he put Kaka in the forward line when he was setting up, and then told Kaka, "The first ten minutes are dangling on the front line, and after ten minutes, you get past the boss, you withdraw and play how you play, how to play......"

Such an attitude is because he has a good temper. But most coaches are absolutely unavoidable. But you can't manage tactically, but you arrange people in the lineup, which is also annoying enough.

And Given, as the CEO of Manchester United, helped the Glazer family buy Mann

Lian, the reason is actually this one: they really don't understand the ball, and they are even a little greedy for money. However, they have a benefit that no other owner can match: they don't want to put a player they like into the roster and thus have a full impact on the coach's arrangement.

In fact, the coach management transfer and tactical arrangement is theoretically the tradition of the Premier League, but the commercialization is deepening step by step, the transfer fee is getting higher and higher, and there are few bosses who are willing to put tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of transfer fees on the 'coach's cāo guard' at this time, especially when many coaches have a close relationship with their agents in private, and even Lippi, Capello and others simply let their sons be agents, and Lippi's son even has a brokerage company. It's the same in the Premier League, many coaches and agents are involved, how can the bosses let go? Even Ferguson had an awkward relationship with the boss and almost resigned, the so-called Premier League boss is to pay money, and the 'traditional model' that doesn't care about anything else only exists in the ideal model, but this ideal model is contrary to the commercialization of the big chÑo, and will be washed away one day.

And Jiwen wants to make the ideal into reality.

'It's hard for us to beat Chelsea financially. Not just because they have money, but because they are willing to spend money. There are many rich people, but how many people are rich and willing to sit on the sidelines and watch the game every game? We can't beat them. Fight to buy into the young, we can't fight Arsenal. Arsene Wenger is a Frenchman after all, and the French are too far ahead of our club in the field of youth training, youth player development and selection, and we can't fight them unless we change all the scouts at the club. But there are some things that we can win. We have access to greater authority than they do, and this is a condition for our success. We can't guarantee that every money will have a positive effect, but we can guarantee that the money will not have a negative effect. ”

Jiwen's explanation made Ferguson nod, and at this time, he also understood Jiwen's good intentions.

We can't make our bosses incredibly rich, but we can at least keep them from holding back. It's true that other people's teammates are as fierce as tigers, but there are times when they are as stupid as pigs. And ours, at least not muddy.

Ferguson's tactical talent, after all, still has the limitations of British coaches, and there is a big gap compared to those super coaches in the continental system. And now, Mourinho, Benitez and others are not following common sense and directly mainlanding English clubs, making Premier League football more difficult to play. In this case, the tactics are not as good as the people, the financial resources are not as good as the people, and Manchester United is at a disadvantage, but these can be recovered from the management of the club.

"Actually, that's what you can." Givens continued, "If it were someone else, they wouldn't have agreed to us doing this." They've been able to let you do this here because you've proven over the past 20 years that you're not going to take the club's money. ”

'Hopefully this will close the gap between us and Chelsea.' Ferguson muttered to himself, "Arsenal has built the stadium, investment will definitely not work, our competitors, only Chelsea remains." ”

"And Liverpool."

Given's words made Ferguson look up.

"Liverpool are getting rich now, too." "Now, they're talking to China about advertising. Once the negotiation is made, their income will increase considerably...... Although Liverpool's top management is stupid, and money may not be able to be spent right, but such a thing must be done carefully. We made a mistake at the beginning, and if we had bought a Chinese, we would have made a fortune now......"

"Don't associate economics with competition. I'd rather make less money than have a ball bully who can't be sold. Ferguson shook his head, "And how much money will they only get in total......

"You may still not know what this means - I'll give you an example."

"Do you know that Adidas paid 30 million euros for poaching him under its own banner this summer, for him alone, but even so, it still didn't negotiate with his agent." Given's words were a little sour, "The four-year contract, plus liquidated damages and signing fees, is a total of 30 million euros. However, according to their internal executives, the deal is still profitable β€” the Chinese market is unexpectedly large, and Adidas hopes to make an annual profit of about one billion dollars there, and after signing Zhao Yaning, they are trying to expand the existing 700 stores there to 1,200. Moreover, it is said that Adidas is going to launch a series of brands for him, specifically to attract the Chinese market - you can know how much influence and commercial value he has, right? ”

"You just tell me how much money Liverpool can get." Ferguson spoke with some irritation.

"If cāo is done well, more than 50 million...... Where are they bringing in reinforcements, they are inviting a Mercury back. Jiwen complained with some dissatisfaction, "Now those guys are not open-minded, the club is not commercialized enough, and people give sponsorship, they are all crooked." However, this kind of thing of taking money from other people's hands is very fast, and we have to be careful. ”

Ferguson's face was even more unhappy.

"I know you hate Liverpool and certainly don't want to see them rise......"

"Who said that?" Ferguson turned his head, "Who said I wouldn't want to see them rise?" I'm looking forward to it. ”

"The biggest regret of my life is that I didn't really lead Manchester United to fight against Liverpool during the European sweep. Our prime, staggered, our throne was not taken by them, but taken advantage of their weakness. But they rise and that's even better – I'm going to really snatch the throne from them and really prove that we're the best club in England. ”

"Manchester United is strong, and it doesn't need the weakness of the enemy as a foil. The stronger they are, the stronger we are. Fighting against the strong can let people know the greatness of Manchester United! It's great that they've recovered, and I want people to know that Manchester United's throne was stolen, not stolen! ”ω· u(8) Update the fastest reading network
