Chapter 370 Bow to the Champion

After hanging up the phone, Duncan couldn't believe it.

Blatter does not have the kind of urine in accordance with FIFA, arrogant and rude.

On the phone, he was as kind as an old man next door.

Of course, the high-ranking Blatter is definitely not an old man next door.

It's just that his kind address made Duncan a little at a loss.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
Duncan felt that there must be something wrong with Blatter's overtaking attitude.

On the phone, Blatter also very politely invited Duncan to attend the awards party, and he also said that the Manchester City players would definitely win the award.

how can that be possible?
The "Financial Fair Play Act" two years later is specifically aimed at teams that invest a lot of money like Manchester City.

A dominance is definitely a blow to FIFA's balanced policy.

So there must be fraud.

Duncan kept thinking, even when he was eating, he kept frowning.

"What's the matter, Steuben?" Sitting opposite Duncan and facing Jim Cassell, he noticed the abnormality in Duncan's expression.

"I'm a little strange," Duncan said while eating the rice on the plate, "Bratt called me, but his attitude on the phone was very strange."

Duncan talked about his guess and Blatt's attitude. Unexpectedly, Jim Cassell on the opposite side burst out laughing when he heard Duncan's words.

Laugh at your sister!Duncan gave his assistant a blank stare in his heart.

"Because Manchester City performed so well last season!" Jim Cassell said with a smile: "Actually, FIFA and Blatter don't want to let Manchester City take advantage of everything, but they have nothing else to do. choose."

"For example, if you compare achievements to numbers, Manchester City won seven consecutive championships last season and defeated almost all the giants, then their achievements are 100. Other teams, such as Barcelona, ​​are only 30. Only the domestic double champions have not performed brilliantly in international football. Even though Guardiola's tactics are strong, but on the football field, they still rely on their performance. Their achievements may only be [-]. Compared with Let’s come, the gap is a little bit different.”

Jim Cassell analyzed.

Duncan's eyes lit up, and he kind of understood what Jim Cassell meant.

"You mean to say that the impact of our achievements is actually much higher than that of Barcelona?"

"Of course," Jim Cassell smiled: "If one achieves 50 and the other achieves 60, they can operate in the dark and praise the winner as the team with 50 achievements. But when the achievement gap is too large, FIFA will operate in the dark. , That’s simply telling people: There are shady things and tricks in this selection. Therefore, Blatter called you because the situation forced him to do so.”

As soon as Jim Cassell said it, Duncan understood.

Last season, I and Manchester City were too dazzling, and I just won the Club World Cup, so FIFA can't pretend to be blind.

Otherwise, it is the enemy of the whole football game.

In fact, Duncan himself has a little understanding in his heart, because he is a little bit deluded by the authorities.

In my heart, I still regard Barcelona as the omnipotent and invincible "cosmic team".

But the reality is that Barcelona is still just getting started, and last season was suppressed by Manchester City a bit miserably.

So they may be very good in the future, but now they are not as good as Manchester City.

Compared with Barcelona, ​​the current Manchester City is actually more like a cosmic team.

For such a team, FIFA must make good friends.

Although they like to play the game of balance very much, if they are not close to Manchester City, they will not only be spurned by the fans, but also by the sponsors.

You must know that the sponsors are all "champion fans"!

Therefore, FIFA can only bow to the champion.

There are some differences between the Golden Globe Award of "French Football" and FIFA's World Player of the Year.

The three finalists for the Ballon d'Or are Shevchenko, Yaya Toure and Messi.

It can be seen that, compared with FIFA's trend of becoming more and more an entertainment company, "French Football" is still sticking to the football field, the final conscience of professional judgment.

Ironically, the authoritative source of data for the selection of "French Football" is selected by the news media, the eternal villains and defending kings in football novels.In that world, the only reason for the news media to exist is to be slapped in the face by a pig's foot.

What is even more ironic is that next year, the Ballon d'Or will be incorporated by FIFA.

At least now, the media are aware of Yaya Toure's important role in Manchester City.

And this is definitely not reflected in the number of goals, assists, and interceptions.

Of course, although Toure was selected, the meaning of running with him is obvious.

The same is true for the final selection.

In the selection of the French Football Ballon d'Or, Shevchenko won the Ballon d'Or for the second time with an absolute advantage.

Not only the Golden Globes, but even the best team of the year selected by French football, Manchester City has a very big advantage.

In this 442 lineup, Casillas occupies the goalkeeper position.

On the defense line, Chelsea's Terry, Manchester City's Heinze, Thiago Silva, and Barcelona's Alves.

Midfield four, Manchester City's Toure.David Silva, Xavi in ​​Barcelona, ​​Gerrard in Liverpool.

There are two forwards, Manchester City's Shevchenko and Barcelona's Messi.

As for the best head coach, it must belong to Duncan.

With 12 seats, Manchester City won 6 seats, occupying half of the entire lineup, and stole the limelight.

It is not difficult to see from this lineup that both Serie A and Bundesliga are no longer the same as they used to be. The Bundesliga has become the fourth league in Europe, and the status of Serie A has also been replaced by the Premier League and La Liga.

Although the Premier League is ahead of La Liga in terms of influence and business development, La Liga still has a unique advantage when it comes to award selection.

……

On December 12, Manchester City ushered in Stoke City at home.

With a small 1:0 victory over their opponents, Manchester City continued their league journey.

During the Club World Cup, Manchester City missed two rounds, but the teams behind them did not take this opportunity to get closer.

This game against Stoke City is the 19th round of the league, the Premier League, and it happens to be halfway through.

Although Manchester City missed three games, they still have a record of 14 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, with 43 points, leading the way.Halfway through the league, Manchester City's strength is desperate.

Chelsea continued their strong performance this season, with 13 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the half, accumulating 42 points and ranking second.

Then, Manchester United and Arsenal have the same score of 34 points, which is relatively far away.

Then, there are Villa and Tottenham in the third echelon. The two teams have 27 points, which is far behind the four.

What is more miserable is Liverpool. They only ranked seventh in the half-time, and even only one point higher than Birmingham, which is eighth. Their European seats for next season are at stake.
