Chapter 650 Unspoken rules (Second update, ask for a monthly pass!)

At first Niang thought it was just Dalglish forgetting to sign wide players, but he didn't expect it to be much more complicated now.

He'd better talk to Chen Xing about this kind of thing, after all, he will get Chen Xing's support and authorization next time - he wants to take back the transfer right from Dalglish.In other words, the transfer is out of Dalglish's control.Dalglish, the head coach, has the right to suggest who the team buys and who to sell, but not the right to decide.The decision rests with Niang.

This is normal in clubs in Italy and Spain, Germany, but England is the exception.England is a manager responsibility system, but this manager does not refer to a general manager like Niang, but the head coach of the team. They are called "managers" in England, not "coaches".

In English football, the manager, the manager, is in charge of everything, from the construction of the team to the vests the players wear to training and the showers in the dressing room. The nozzles are all under their control.

Among them, what they value most is the right to transfer.

Because they often know their teams best. They know what kind of team they want, which players to bring in, and which players to sell.

So letting them lead the transfer is good for the team itself.

But everything has pros and cons.The monopoly of the head coach can easily make the team more effective and stable, but it can also lead to the emergence of dictators.Especially in terms of transfer rights, it is easy to bring some black gold benefits.

Because the team's transfer is all decided by the head coach, whoever he says he wants to buy, the club has to pay for him.As for why you need to buy this person, the head coach has many opinions, such as the player club needs, this player is a local player, this player is willing to come, this player is cheap, this player has potential, this player... Anyway, there are no reasons. It was thought up by people.

The head coach can draw his own commission from this transfer transaction for profit.In fact this is not allowed, but it is very common in English football.

Generally speaking, when players transfer, it is the agent who benefits from it, so the agent will hope that the players will transfer frequently. In the continuous transfer, the value of the players is getting higher and higher, and the salary is getting higher and higher.In this way, the broker can remember to draw his own proportion from it.However, if a player wants to transfer, it may not be successful, because if he wants to leave his old club and go to another team, he needs the consent of the head coaches of the two teams.

In this way, the agent will naturally go to the PR head coach and promise to give them a certain percentage of commission if the transfer is successful.In order to get this money, the coaches will naturally try their best to facilitate this transfer transaction. They will use various means to put pressure on the club, telling the club that his team needs this player very, very much.

Taking kickbacks is common in many industries in China. Although it is normal, it is not necessarily the right way.Similarly, when coaches in England sell or bring in players, they will ask for kickbacks directly from player agents and even opposing clubs. This is nothing new—if the head coach of a professional football club Is it appropriate to have a stake in someone else's company and deal directly with those agents when buying or selling players?Would it make sense if the agent who was dealing with the coaches happened to be their relative, or even their son?

The above is not just nonsense, but a fact that actually happened in English football.The most famous sports agency company in the UK, PROACTIVE, used to be the largest sports agency company in the UK. It has a number of head coach shareholders within the company. Many team head coaches and players themselves own a certain amount of shares in this company. , listen to the names of these shareholders - Bobby Robson, Graeme Souness, Steve Coppel, Howard Wilkinson, Kyle Keegan, Sam Allardyce ...Of course, these names are all from 2002. Some people sold their shares under the pressure of public opinion, but no one is willing to explain to the public why they own the shares of this company, nor why Many of the transfer transactions between these coaches and clubs are completed within this brokerage company. A certain player under one shareholder is transferred to another shareholder. This is a typical "conflict of interest".

Even in China, many people often talk about the requirement of "justice, openness, fairness and transparency".But in the English football circle, these things are hidden in the dark corners, and no one in the circle is willing to show it to everyone in a fair, open, fair and transparent manner.They take it for granted, it is the rules of the game in this circle.Relying on mountains to eat mountains depends on water to eat water, and groups that rely on football to survive naturally eat football.

Every season, there are tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of pounds, of transfer fees circulating in the market. Professional players, especially the Premier League, get astronomical wages every season. Can the fans be sure that they will be passed down from generation to generation? Are the supported clubs making decisions on player transactions in the interest of the fans?
After understanding these back stories, it is not difficult to understand why there are so many inexplicable transfer transactions that no one can understand every summer and winter.

Of course, such things as drawing commissions are not exclusive to English football, but in other countries, the person who makes profits has changed from the head coach to the general manager of the club or the head of the athletic department who is responsible for transfers.

Niang certainly knows the unspoken rules in this circle, and he also knows that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.He doesn't care if the head coach makes some money if conditions permit, as long as the people they bring in are helpful to the team.

Just like Mijatovic spent 3000 million euros to bring central defender Pepe from Porto when he was the manager of Real Madrid. At that time, Pepe was not well-known, and many people thought that Real Madrid was a winner Later, some people speculated that Real Madrid chairman Calderon and general manager Mijatovic must have collected some kickbacks in this transfer transaction, otherwise how could an unknown central defender be sold for 3000 million euros?In fact, the money was indeed collected, but after Pepe's arrival, he added hardness to Real Madrid's defense. Now he is Real Madrid's well-deserved main central defender, Iron Gate.

In this way, everyone gradually forgot the quarrel between Calderon and Mijatovic.

Niang also had the same thoughts. If Tangning could really improve the strength of the domestic team, then spending 2000 million would not be out of the question.The problem was that he didn't think Downing would be of much use after he came to Liverpool, and the team still had to pay him a high salary.Although Tang Ning said that he loves Liverpool very much, it is impossible to expect him to lower his weekly salary to join his favorite team because of his love.

That being the case, what do I spend 2000 million to buy him, is it fun to be taken advantage of?

Niang told Chen Xing the whole thing.

After Chen Xing heard it, he didn't slap the table in a rage and scold his mother, but laughed: "Using a PS video as an advertisement? Aston Villa is really thoughtful. I wonder if we also asked Our own multimedia department also does this kind of public relations? For example, players like Joe Cole can be marketed like this...It must be more convincing than Tangning, haha!"

After laughing, he said to Niang: "You are right, Tangning cannot be bought, and we have to gradually withdraw the transfer rights. Nowadays, more and more English clubs have begun to let the general manager of the club be responsible for the transfer, 'King' We must also recognize this trend, and his old ways can no longer be played. He can suggest, but what he says doesn’t count.”

With Chen Xing's support, what should Niang's natural way do? Of course he won't go straight to Dalglish and say to him: "Hey, old guy! From now on we're going to take back what's in your hands. The right to transfer! In the future, transfer will be in your hands, if you tell me that, I will decide whether to buy it or not!"

It would be foolish to do so, he is not a person with zero EQ.

There are many ways to make Dalglish Dao no longer able to decide by himself, it is better to have an excellent opportunity in front of him now!

"...Kenny Dalglish once again announced Liverpool's interest in Downing. He believes that Downing is a very talented player. He will become a new legend of this stadium when he comes to Anfield!"

"Liverpool's 'King' hopes to bring Downing to Anfield. Currently, the Aston Villa player is caught in transfer rumors...Liverpool spent a lot of money this summer to introduce high center forward Chen Yingxiong. Long headers, obviously Dalglish wants to take full advantage of the hero's advantage in headers, so he needs good wide players..."

"Tangning himself was flattered by Liverpool's interest in him. He said that he has been a Liverpool fan since he was a child, but he did not say that he will definitely transfer to Liverpool. He still has a contract with Aston Villa... "

In the past two days, many English media have been paying attention to the news that Liverpool coach Kenny Dalglish is pursuing Downing.Downing was really amazing when he debuted in Middlesbrough. He was considered by the English media as England's future star and England's wide player for the next ten years.But considering that the English media always like to use exaggerated and exaggerated rhetorical techniques, Tangning's true level is indeed questionable...

How did Dalglish respond to such transfer rumors?

"Yes, I am very interested in Tang Ning, he is a very good player. I hope he can join Liverpool. Yes, we have a hero now, we need a wide player who can break through and pass the ball, Tang Ning He is the best candidate in my mind..."

Niang looked at these remarks in the newspaper and laughed.

Does this count as using the media to put pressure on me?

This trick is neither new nor technical.
