Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 427 Waste of Resources
"Jiang Hao, you did a really good job." Pei Wei wanted to laugh when he thought of the price. Although he earned more than 300 million dollars from this transfer, this was not what he valued: "600 million... …Gosh, I never thought a Chinese player could be worth this price, although I think he is worth this price, but in the transfer market of European football, a player’s worth is not only determined by his strength, Roma Ken I was really surprised by the price.”

"Thanks to Mr. Gao Qi." Jiang Hao said with a smile on the phone: "He is the most cunning club president I have ever seen, who can maximize the interests of the club. His tough attitude at the beginning was just a gesture , if he hadn’t bitten so tightly, Rome would have offered up to 200 million.”

"Actually, it's just a small profit." Pei Wei snorted: "He pays too much attention to immediate interests... If it were me, I would rather ask Roma for a few young players to take the lead, so that I can build a good relationship with Roma and also have a good relationship with Roma." To obtain higher actual benefits, the Roma youth team now has a few good players... In terms of details, he has done a really good job, but he has no long-term vision."

"That is, how many club owners can compare with you." Jiang Hao flattered him without showing any signs.

"Haha, you don't have to flatter me... I can think this way because I have enough financial resources, but Gao Qi doesn't. Sometimes I can only focus on immediate interests first... But this time you also earn money. Quite a lot, Mr. 5.00%." ​​Pei Wei said with a big smile.

"A little bit, boss, you can make a living under you, and you can always get some benefits." Jiang Hao replied with a smile.

Just when Pei Wei was about to hang up the phone, Jiang Hao suddenly said: "Boss, I heard a piece of news yesterday...Deng Jia is about to retire."

Pei Wei was taken aback.

Dunga, a well-known tough guy in international football, the captain of the Brazilian national team for two World Cups, a 37-year-old veteran this year, and the first real world superstar owned by Yunjia Tianyu Club, is he about to leave?

In fact, Dunga's career has lasted long enough. He was born in 1963 and is now 37 years old. Players of his age, such as Laudrup and Klinsmann, have all retired. Dunga is one of them. One of the latest retired stars in his age group.

Pei Wei doesn't know what Dunga will do in the future. In fact, he never paid attention to Dunga's news after the 98 World Cup in his previous life. Dunga is as unknown as his position in life, unlike his other Those champion teammates, even after retiring, are still radiant, never disappearing from people's eyes, low-key, unpretentious, but extremely important, this is Dunga.

After knowing the news, Pei Wei once called Dunga, hoping that Dunga could take up a position in Yunjia Tianyu Club, but Dunga politely declined. He has accepted the invitation of the Brazil International Team and will take up the post next year. The head coach of the team.

However, Pei Wei did not have nothing to gain. Dun Jia agreed to serve as the honorary principal of a football school in Yunjia Tianyu. Will come to this football school to teach young players.

**********************************************
After the Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team has completed their mission. Because of the outstanding performance in leading the team, Milu automatically became the head coach of the Chinese national team and will take on the task of the national team's impact on the 2002 World Cup, but no one will I think Milu can't complete this task. This World Cup is very easy for the Chinese team. Although FIFA has only allocated [-] places for Asia, Japan and South Korea have directly entered the finals of the World Cup as hosts. There are only a few teams such as Saudi Arabia and Iran that are threatening.

More importantly, due to the excellent results of the Chinese team in the past few years, coupled with the fact that the Chinese Football Association has become more and more influential in the AFC, it is almost certain that after entering the final top ten, the Chinese team will definitely Will become the top seed of the group, so the Chinese team will gain a very favorable position in the group.

As a person who has been there, Pei Wei is naturally aware of this situation, but the successful entry into the World Cup actually became the fuse for the complete decline of Chinese football. The then chairman of the Football Association "Yan Wang" gambled heavily on the World Cup and suspended promotions for two consecutive years. The fundamental of Chinese football, the league, suffered a devastating blow. The suspension of relegation made the league lose its biggest attraction. Sponsors’ enthusiasm for investment was hit the hardest. Fans completely lost interest in the league. Match-fixing and black whistle , The probability of tacit understanding of the ball is maximized. Less than two months after the Chinese national team successfully entered the World Cup, the "11 to 2" incident brought the anger of fans across the country to its peak. He received the most severe punishment, but it was too late. The roots of the entire league were rotten, and the league lost all credibility. The last glory of Chinese football.

Thankfully, history is completely different now.

After entering the World Cup without dividing the league into divisions in 98, both Chinese fans, Chinese players, clubs and the Football Association have become accustomed to putting national team games such as World Cup qualifiers between the leagues. Although it will affect the combat effectiveness of the national team to a certain extent-after all, the national team still needs enough time for training to allow all players to form a tacit understanding-but in the long run, failing to enter the World Cup once does not make a country The level of football in China has regressed, and the suspension of promotion and relegation in the league for two years will definitely lead to the destruction of the league that a country has managed so hard to manage!

The impact of this year's Asian Cup and the Olympic Games on the league is already obvious. Due to two important competitions, the league must give way, making this year's league schedule unprecedentedly dense. The enthusiasm of the fans has been exhausted in the Asian Cup and the Olympic Games. It's almost there, and the intensive schedule and tired players have reduced the excitement of the league to a certain extent, so the attendance rate of fans in the league this year has experienced negative growth for the first time.

Perhaps the most affected by the Olympic Games is Yunjia Tianyu. They have the most Olympic team players, reaching three. Among the other clubs competing for the championship, there are only two clubs in Dalian and Liaoning, and only one overage player in Jianghai in Shanghai. Shandong didn't even have a single player. In the final sprint, Yunjiatianyu was at a disadvantage from the very beginning.

******************************************
In front of coach Mourinho is a mess.

Although Adriano has come out of the hospital, he can't take part in the competition immediately without training for two months. The three Olympic team players, Zheng Zhizhu Guosheng and Wu Jiang, have been tired all summer, so don't let them rest for a few days No one can justify it, the loss of four absolute main players at once, Mourinho is really stretched in terms of formation.

Mourinho found Pei Wei directly, and said bluntly: "Pei, I don't understand why there is no one available under me... According to the observation in the past year, Yunjia Tianyu's players have the best potential ability , there is no Chinese club that has nearly ten echelon teams of all ages like Yunjiatianyu, but the first team has only 23 members! In this situation like now, I have no one to use! You are welcome to say , This is a great waste of club resources!"

After hearing these words, Pei Wei was taken aback. He always believed that to form a fighting force, a club needs about [-] players who can play the main role and seven or eight players who are capable and willing to be substitutes. The team building policy has always been based on this, and Mourinho suddenly said that this is a huge waste of resources, which surprised Pei Wei a bit.

After listening to Pei Wei's explanation, Mourinho nodded: "This approach is correct, but it has not considered a problem, that is, maybe these 23 players can get enough exercise, but the young players in the reserve team But it’s hard to stand up to them—they have been training and playing in the reserve team all the time, and they are familiar with the way of the reserve team. After all, the reserve team and the first team are still very different, so it is impossible to temporarily transfer players from the reserve team. Function——After the players of the reserve team and the main players of the first team have trained tacitly, the shortage of people has long passed. There is still a relatively large gap in strength between the current players and the first team, and they cannot be used as soon as they are transferred up. Players are not cogs, nor are they spare parts of a machine.”

"Then what do you think should be done?" Pei Wei couldn't help but be convinced. An expert is an expert, and he could tell at a glance that Yunjiatianyu's current player model was not right. This was also the reason why Yunjiatianyu often encountered shortages in the past two years.

Mourinho can see it, but Wenger and Benitez can't see it. It doesn't mean that they are worse than Mourinho. It's because Yunjia Tianyu was at his peak when they were coaching. In the Wenger era, Nie Fei, Hao Dong, Sun Chenghai and other strong players who would not be injured and missed the game basically prevented the substitute players from playing. In the Benitez era, Nie Fei and their strength have even improved. On the first floor, after Nie Fei and the others left, Yunjiatianyu had six world-class foreign aids, and there would be no problems in this regard.Speaking of which, Mourinho's luck was even worse. The Yunjiatianyu team under him was far inferior to the Yunjiatianyu in previous years in terms of strength.

"Then what do you think should be done?" Pei Wei asked.
