Chapter 300 Brother Toure
After getting Klose, Shao Bo has to continue to add talents to the team.

In addition to the main goalkeeper Petr Cech, Arsenal must also prepare a player of similar strength as a substitute.

For a long time, Shao Bo has been making do with Manninger, who was transferred for 60 that year, and the No. [-] goalkeeper has always been promoted from the team's youth training.

It's just that Shao Bo has never found any good goalkeeper seedlings from the youth training, which makes Manninger always occupy the position of the second goalkeeper.

The main reason is that Manninger is often injured, and the frequency of his absence even exceeds that of the main goalkeeper Petr Cech.

If it weren't for the old goalkeeper David Seaman who was often absent due to injuries in the later stages of Arsenal, I am afraid that Manninger would not even get a chance to play.

It is the same now, except for the League Cup and the FA Cup, Manninger still has no chance to participate in the usual Premier League games.

After all, Cech has played steadily for a season, basically completing the task with full attendance.

And what about Manninger?He's been in hospital as many as four times this season, luckily each with minor injuries of about a week or so.

There are many minor injuries, Shao Bo can also see that Manninger will not protect his body.

There is no way but to help him adjust his body through scientific and reasonable training.However, as a veteran who has joined Arsenal for many years, it stands to reason that these scientific training should have been applied long ago, and there should not be so many problems.

However, I heard later that the training method Manninger received in the Austrian national team was not the same as that of Arsenal.

This is another example of the national team affecting the club!
After learning the truth, Shao Bo couldn't help scolding the Austrian Football Association.

Their training methods are really backward, and they still run without the ball, which cannot keep up with the times.

A healthy Manninger is a good goalkeeper who can compete with Petr Cech occasionally.As a substitute, Shao Bo couldn't find any more problems.

However, they still need to find a player, which can be regarded as a supplement to Manninger, in case he is injured again at any time.

The strict scouting system played a role-a young goalkeeper from Slovenia's oldest club Domsaler, Handanovic's figure caught Shaobo's attention.

The player who had just started his career excitedly agreed when he heard that he had received Shao Bo's attention and was invited by Shao Bo to become a member of Arsenal.

Although Handanovic also knows that the current Arsenal actually already has a good enough goalkeeper Petr Cech.But this kind of opportunity to join a wealthy family may only come once in a lifetime, so how can he let it go and miss it?
Slovenia is not a good place for Handanovic to practice quietly.

The young Handanovic will now serve as a powerful supplement to Manninger, and Arsenal only paid 80 euros for the training fee.

With the progress of one task after another, the Toure brothers also came to the Kearney training base smoothly and became a member of Arsenal.

Among them, the slightly more troublesome younger brother, Yaya Toure, has also obtained a labor certificate under the FA, so he no longer has to worry about it.

Côte d'Ivoire's football has developed well in recent years. Although Yaya Touré is young, he entered the national team early and played in international competitions.

As the elder brother, Kolo Toure, although he came to Highbury earlier than his younger brother, he did not have a few chances to play.This all stems from the fact that there are too many defensive players in the Arsenal team, so that Shao Bo has never had time to pay attention to him.

However, after Hyypia left the team, Kolo Toure naturally filled his position. He also believes that starting from this season, he will become an important member of Arsenal's defense.

And Shao Bo believes that this structure in which European and African players each occupy a certain proportion will greatly help the team maintain its competitiveness.

Everyone knows the impact of a competition on a player.

In addition to the World Cup that all players yearn for and can recruit most outstanding players, there are also intercontinental competitions belonging to all continents.

The European Cup, African Cup and America's Cup, these three intercontinental cups are one of the most unstable factors affecting major European clubs.

The America's Cup generally has little impact on players going to Europe, let's not talk about this for now.

However, due to climate reasons, the African Cup was scheduled for winter.

This has forced many African players to leave the team in the middle of the season in the mainstream European leagues and return to the national team.

It’s okay if the national team is eliminated early, but if they play smoothly in the African Cup, they will inevitably consume a lot of energy that was originally used for club games, which will have a great impact on the club.

More seriously, it may directly affect the team's championship!

The same is true for the European Cup. If the players affect the state of the new season because of the European Cup, who will the club cry to?
European local players are the main players, with a few African players as strong supplements, so that we can try our best to reduce the impact of this kind of national team on the club.

However, this is a negative avoidance after all, and it cannot really solve the impact of the national team competition on the club.

If you want to really solve the problem, it is impossible to complete the task by relying on one or two weak clubs.

Teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Bayern Munich may be able to stand upright when facing small national football associations like Egypt and Slovenia.

But if they are allowed to directly confront the Spanish Football Association and the German Football Association, they will have to cringe.

Even if they have always had most of the top international players in their country, even the club is equivalent to half of the national team.

At this time, they can only solve the problem if they hold together and form a whole.

G14 was established for this purpose.

Although Arsenal originally withdrew from G14 because of their disagreement with Manchester United due to the idea of ​​​​the organizational line, but within two years, Arsenal received the invitation again and became the first batch of new members of G14.

And this organization has indeed won a lot of benefits for the major clubs.

The most obvious of these are the restructuring of the European War and the division of spoils by clubs.

The restructuring of the European competition naturally includes two events, the Champions League and the UEFA Cup.However, the degree of attention received by the UEFA Cup is much lower than that of the Champions League, and everyone is more concerned about the outcome of the restructuring of the Champions League.

Fortunately, the new policy will be implemented in the new season.They also don't have to play two stages of the group stage, wasting so much time in the European war.

After all, many teams are often dragged down by the Champions League because of their inability to perform perfect multi-line battles, which will affect their domestic league results.

And the clubs share the spoils... No, the clubs and the Football Association share the competition broadcast fees and bonuses, which is also one of the benefits that G14 has won for the major clubs.

You must know that intercontinental competitions and competitions between national teams are also broadcast on TV, which will naturally generate broadcast fees.

The broadcast fee will also be used as a bonus, which will be shared according to the results between countries.

A huge bonus is also equivalent to a huge cake, stirring everyone's hearts.

In the past, players trained by clubs were always recruited by the national team for free.Then no matter what kind of performance the national team plays in the European Cup, African Cup, or World Cup, the club always gets nothing.

Moreover, they have to bear the responsibility of supporting the players until the contract expires in case the players are injured!

What's more, this won't be compensated by the Football Association. They also call it "playing for the country" and "dedicated to the country"!
For a club whose main goal is to make profits and win championships, this is nothing short of exploitation!

As a representative of the top clubs in Europe, G14 naturally hopes that the major football associations can change.After a long negotiation, they finally got a fairly satisfactory result.

Nowadays, if a player is injured while playing for the country, the Football Association will give the club a certain amount of financial compensation.Although this was not what they wanted most, it was still a satisfactory result.

What makes everyone even more excited is that the club will also be included in the broadcast bonus share in the future.

As long as the players in the top-ranked national team belong to a certain club, then that club can get the bonus share.

How much is determined based on factors such as the number of times a player plays and the number of players he has.

This is relatively more advantageous for those clubs whose players are all in football powers, but they also have to worry about the competition of their players within the country.

In this way, each club also has a stronger motivation to train players, so that football can develop more vigorously.

The last reform, although compared with the first two, is not taken seriously, but it has also had a profound impact on major clubs.

G14 asked FIFA to unify the global national team competition schedule.

After all, no one wants to spend a lot of money to invite foreign players, but because they have to participate in the international cups and friendly matches of national teams of various countries, they are often absent, so that their best team is always missing!
This requirement is somewhat troublesome.After all, it is impossible for FIFA to fully accommodate the interests of a few people in Europe.

After all, in FIFA, people need to vote by head. It is not that the development of football in Europe is more brilliant, and Europe just says what it says.

Although they have the advantage and dominance, as long as they threaten the interests of other continents, they can be stopped at any time.

Although this reform is not large, it has also made some changes in the competition schedule to make the international competition day more fixed and centralized.

In this way, there is no opposition from other members of FIFA. After all, this is a reform that is also beneficial to teams from other countries.
