Chapter 605 Manchester United Bet Big, Follow!
"Liverpool ended AC Milan's dream in 90 minutes!"

"AC Milan suffered a humiliating defeat at the San Siro!"

"Liverpool show the quality of the championship favourites!"

"Situ Yunbing's ambition: the first player in history to lead three different teams to the Champions League!"

The reports after Liverpool's defeat of AC Milan were particularly shocking, but in fact the game was lackluster. In addition to Liverpool's strong performance, AC Milan's low resistance actually made the game lack of highlights.

The city of Milan is full of feathers, whether it is Inter Milan or AC Milan, it seems to be a mess, and that is not what Situ Yunbing cares about.

Since the UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals scored a very large score in the first round, Situ Yunbing did not rotate in the league, but continued to use the midweek lineup.

Situ Yunbing will lay the absolute foundation for winning the league championship before April!

In the 27th round of the league, Swansea visited as a guest. Liverpool was in great momentum and played well at home. Coutinho continued his excellent form in the middle of the week and helped Liverpool open the scoring at Anfield. His kick The iconic long-range shot went straight to the dead end and the fans cheered him again.

Fans even choreographed songs for him.

"Either you don't score a goal, or if you score, it will be a world wave!"

Swansea's performance has dropped slightly compared to last season. The main reason is that Michu, who was prosperous last season, lost his form after an injury. Looking back at this time, he was just a flash in the pan last season.

Liverpool played wonderfully against Swansea at home. After more than a year of technological transformation, Swansea is indeed a pleasing style of play, but good-looking football has little to do with efficiency. They just lack the efficiency of the fatal blow in front of the goal. .

Suarez scored twice in the header to seal Liverpool's victory midway through the second half.

Liverpool finally defeated Swansea 4:1 at Anfield and took all 3 points!
In this round, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City have won at home. Liverpool's lead has not continued to expand, but there are only 11 rounds left in the league!

Liverpool, 72 points.

Chelsea, 60 points.

Manchester City, 56 points.

Arsenal, 56 points.

There was no battle in the middle of the week, and Situ Yunbing gave the team a day off.

On Monday night, the club management held a dinner. Situ Yunbing brought Sigrid to attend. The boss Henry booked a restaurant in the city. The middle and senior managers of the club brought their families to the dinner.

Situ Yunbing naturally sat at the same table with club chairman Werner and owner Henry.

The dinner was full of laughter and laughter, and when the meal was almost over, the men chatted together with wine.

Boss Henry rarely asked Situ Yunbing about a recent focus event in the Premier League, or it may have caused a certain sensation.

"Rooney's contract extension, what do you think?"

Situ Yunbing knew that it was impossible for Henry to ask him about Wayne Rooney's future at Manchester United, or the future fate of the Manchester United club. Of course he was asking about Rooney's contract renewal conditions with a weekly salary of up to 30 pounds.

Situ Yunbing sighed: "The development of the times, the economic situation determines everything, people are talking about the financial tsunami, maybe the life of ordinary people has indeed been difficult due to the impact of the financial crisis in the past few years, but what about the football circle? The broadcast fee of China is still increasing significantly, the broadcast fee of the European arena is also increasing, the sponsorship fee is rising, the ticket price is rising, even the jersey price is rising, and the salary of the players is also certain.

But it is undeniable that Rooney’s salary has a premium component. There are two reasons why Manchester United is eager to lock his future. The first is the current situation of Manchester United. Their attractiveness in the transfer market is declining sharply. It is difficult, so of course we must lock in the existing ones. The second is that Rooney is one of the few stars that England can take out now. In a sense, he is the face of the Three Lions, no matter what the outside world thinks The Three Lions, after all, there is a market for this signboard. Another point may be my villainous heart. Rooney broke with Ferguson before. Now that he has the initiative, how could he not seize the opportunity to ask for prices?

At £30 a week, he has earned £150 as I finish these few sentences.

Ten years ago, Abramovich gave Lampard £[-] as the maximum salary in the Premier League when he entered Stamford Bridge. Ten years later, the maximum salary has tripled! "

Chairman Werner has been frowning. To be honest, Manchester United's weekly salary of 30 pounds for Rooney made other club presidents want to stamp their feet and scold their mothers!

The reason is also very simple. This is not about Manchester United renewing Rooney's contract, but it is related to the salary structure of other clubs.

The Premier League's maximum salary has reached a new height. Those stars who dare not say that they are better than Rooney, but they are not too far behind, how much weekly salary will they ask?
Not as good as Rooney, but at least it can't be too far behind, right?
And Liverpool club chairman Werner is very headache.

Because it is recognized that Suarez and Gareth Bale are far better than Rooney, how much weekly salary should Liverpool give them?

Therefore, Manchester United's move is really hateful.

The key is that it was Rooney who signed this contract, not Ronaldo or Messi. If there is a star who can match Ronaldo or Messi to get such a contract, other clubs will really watch it, but Rooney ?

Among other things, has he scored in the top three in the Premier League over the years as a striker?

Liverpool has Suarez, Manchester City has Aguero, each of them scored more goals and contributed more than him. Is it unclear that other giants must follow up and raise the level to the threshold of 30 pounds a week when renewing the contract of the star?

After thinking for a moment, Henry asked Situ Yunbing: "What do you think we should do?"

Situ Yunbing looked at Werner. This kind of thing should be Woner's concern, not him, but since Henry came to ask him, he must have had some communication with Werner before.

Situ Yunbing guessed that Werner was still undecided, because he was not sure whether Manchester United's contract extension for Rooney would lead to a trend of star salary increases, or it was just an example. Maybe Manchester United would sell Rooney in the summer. dropped it?

Situ Yunbing smiled and said: "There is nothing to hesitate, it's the same as we play cards, we have a lot of chips compared to Manchester United, our cards are better, the opponent bets heavily, why don't we follow?
Should we cherish the chips?
That might lose a little bit, but if we keep up, we will maintain the advantage and even win more.

When we first met that year, I said that my goal was to make Liverpool not only return to the ranks of the giants, but also to make this club a star club. When we are in the spotlight, our brand value will be beyond imagination! "

Henry nodded slightly and was full of confidence. In fact, in the past two years, Liverpool's brand value has increased rapidly, especially after winning the first Premier League championship in team history!
And now because Situ Yunbing is very optimistic about Mbappe and Arnold, this makes Liverpool's youth team and reserve team start to negotiate jersey sponsorship contracts.

These extra incomes were brought by Situ Yunbing after he coached.

The main reason why the boss and the chairman are so cautious is that the salary ecology changed by Manchester United's contract renewal has indeed had a great impact.

Let's put it this way, Gareth Bale and Suarez now have a combined weekly salary of only close to 30 pounds, which means that Liverpool's annual salary cost on them is between 1300 million and 1400 million pounds.

And if the salary of one player reaches 30 pounds a week, after a year, the salary of two players alone will need to spend as much as 3000 million pounds!
This is not counting the salary increase attached to other players in the team. It can be said that it affects the whole body. It is directly proportional, or whether the basic needs are met, I am afraid that there will be a comparison.

The top ones will be compared with other teams, the middle ones will be compared with their own members in the team, and the bottom ones have never had a say.

To make the team harmonious, this layer of relationship must be sorted out properly.

Once Liverpool chooses to follow up, even if they will not deliberately create a new Premier League maximum salary, it will at least increase the team's annual salary expenditure cost by at least 3000 million pounds!
Henry is not a philanthropist, he cannot invest endlessly in Liverpool, besides, he has tried his best to bet on Situ Yunbing. This season is already a harvest season, but the current situation makes him feel a little bit not optimistic.

Football clubs are absolutely money-burning investments.

But if you say you can't make money, then it is definitely a lie.

The Premier League has long ranked first in the league in terms of per capita revenue per club in the world. However, the Premier League has been losing money before tax in recent years, because some clubs are losing money. Unsuccessful clubs will lose money and spend tens of millions of pounds on signings. Clubs that have raised wage costs by tens of millions of pounds and then performed unsatisfactorily or even relegated are typical.

In addition, money-burning clubs like Manchester City are naturally losing money. Their revenue may not even match Arsenal, if the part of their left-handed and right-handed sponsorship fees to beautify their financial reports is removed.

Liverpool is barely self-sufficient. Since the last year, it has forged ahead in commercial income. What is rare is that the team's record, overall strength and star effect have continued to improve!

Regardless of the record, Manchester United can indeed make money, and it is the club that can make the most money. If Real Madrid does not have the support of the city government, it is impossible for them to snatch the top spot in the global football club revenue list from Manchester United.

Manchester United's global marketing strategy has lasted for nearly half a century. It has been working hard since the Edwards family. Even if the team has a poor record in the league, or even a short-to-medium term, it is difficult to change this!
And Liverpool is trying to catch up with Manchester United. It can only be said that the environment and conditions of this era will not treat enterprising people badly, because in the Internet age, popular traffic will make marketing more effective!
