I am a giant in football

Chapter 156 Attacking the Champion

The league is over, but the players and fans of Sheffield United dare not relax.

For them, the biggest test is coming. The storm before the final battle has even spread to the Sheffield United training ground.

Of course, before that, on the morning of May 5th, League One officially announced the top scorer of the 4-2014 season. Chinese player Zhang Yuning won the League One Golden Boot for that season with 2015 goals (including 31 penalties).

But the best player in League One is not him, but Zhang Yuning's teammate Ali, who contributed 11 goals and 18 assists throughout the season.

This should be said to be well-deserved. Everyone knows that without Ali in the first half of the season, Sheffield United may not be able to get up.

In the best team of the season, Zhang Yuning, Ali, Basham, and Stevens were selected. The others did not perform well, but did not play enough games.

Like Salah, Kanter, Gnabry, Alisson, Umtiti, etc., they all joined the team in the second half, which made them disqualified for honors.

And Ali was very hopeful to get the honor of PFAMVP-the best young player of the men's football team of the England Professional Players Union in April this year.

However, his performance fluctuated too much in March and April, which made him miss this award.

Now he finally got the best player in the 2014-2015 season of League One. When the news was announced, Ali, who was still training, heard what Osborne said, so excited that he took off his clothes and went around the training ground to cheer up.

Then everyone on the Sheffield United field jumped up and chased to celebrate. It can be said that this is the best compliment to Sheffield United.

Of course, Ye Fei also won the honor of the best coach of the League One. If he can lead the team to win the FA Cup, it is possible for him to be like the best coach of the BBC or the coach of the year of the League Managers Association (LMA).

When the news that Ye Fei led the team to the FA Cup final reached China, the executives of the Chinese Football Association even contacted him, hoping that he could return to China during the offseason to discuss [major events].

However, Ye Fei didn't care too much about this, he just politely said hello after talking to the other party, and then hung up hastily.

Anyway, in Ye Fei's mind, he doesn't plan to be the head coach of the national football team right now.

Another piece of good news is that Ye Fei obtained UEFA's A-level coaching certificate just after the League One season ended. Without this guy, it is estimated that next season he can only sit in the stands and direct.

This A certificate is not easy to get. Ye Feileng spent almost 200 hours of study time, plus various notes before passing the exam. He really relied on his football skills to "sell goods".

June 5th…………

Sheffield United held a city-wide parade for the League One champions. According to rough statistics, more than 30 people participated in the parade.

This amount is not too big but not too small. For this reason, Sarah, as the treasurer, prepared 10 pounds for the event.

The parade lasted for three hours before it ended. Along the way, Ye Fei saw many Chinese students holding signs with Ye Fei's name on them.

After finishing these chores, Ye Fei gave the players a three-day holiday and regrouped on May 5, aiming for the FA Cup champion on May 10.

May 5th... Tony, who traveled all over Europe, finally came back, and there were two scouts with him,

The most important one is that: "Satellite Club Feasibility Report"

It includes the basic situation of each team in the four major leagues of La Liga, Ligue [-], Ho Liga, and Ligue [-] this season, as well as the comprehensive scores of each team given by scouts.

Of course, the La Liga teams only examined the last 5 teams, that is, the teams in the relegation zone.

The Ligue 10 is looking at the league ranking after [-]th, why is this so?The main reason is that Ye Fei has no money. Isn't it a joke to compare his little budget with several big families?
And why didn't you choose the Serie A and Bundesliga teams? The first one can't afford it, and the second one is not so easy for Chinese players to succeed in these two leagues.

Although Yang Chen has proved it in the Bundesliga, but when did it happen, the current Chinese players are simply unable to compare with the 02 generation.

Therefore, Ye Fei's main goals are Hejia and Bijia, and Ligue [-] and La Liga are just passing by.

And between Hejia and Bijia, Hejia is stronger, so Ye Fei looked at Hejia's team immediately after picking up the information.

He needs to conduct the first round of screening, and then hand over what he has determined to Rogers to decide.

in the office...

Tony and the two scouts sat there quietly watching Ye Fei carefully review the report, and it took an hour to read it!
"Tony, this is your own investigation. Which team do you think gives you the best impression. Of course, I'm talking about a budget within 1500 million pounds."

Ye Fei put the report in his hand on the table, and then looked at Tony like this.

"There are four teams that I am optimistic about, namely Groningen, Heerenveen, Den Haag from the first league, and Lokeren from the first league."

"This is also the conclusion reached by two scouts together. In terms of cost performance, Groningen and Heerenveen are the highest."

"Oh... Where does this come from?"

Hearing Ye Fei's question, Tony immediately said:

"The first one is the team's hardware facilities. The stadium in Groningen was newly built in 2006 and can accommodate 22000 people, while the stadium in Heerenveen can accommodate 27000 people. The other two teams only have a capacity of about 15000."

"We all know that in a modern football game, especially for second-tier leagues such as Hejia and Liga, the ticket revenue is basically all the team's income, and the most important thing is that the fans in the cities where these two teams are located are very enthusiastic."

"Another aspect is the youth training. Groningen and Heerenveen have a high level of youth training, which can provide the team with a steady stream of reserve talents."

Tony just said that Ye Fei understood, and then he asked David to fax the contents of the document to Rogers who was still packing up in Liverpool.

And after Tony left, he talked with Rogers on the phone, told him the scout's opinion and Ye Fei's own opinion, and finally asked him to choose the team by himself, and told Ye Fei before the 15th.

After dealing with this matter, Ye Fei called Sarah to the office again.

"Honey, what's the matter?" Sarah came to Ye Fei directly after entering the door, and after a normal kiss, she asked Ye Fei.

"Sarah, I want to know how much money is in the team's account?" Ye Fei asked straight to the point.

"And about £2100 million..."

"Why are there so many? It shouldn't be!" Ye Fei looked at him in shock.

Then Sarah began to make a comprehensive report. It turned out that the promotion reward for the League Cup and the half-year dividend of Li-Ning Sports had arrived.

In addition to the income from game tickets, broadcasting share, etc., the money in this account will immediately increase.

"You prepare 1500 million pounds for me and put it in another separate account. I can use it!"

"OK...no problem!" After finishing speaking, Sarah was about to leave, then stopped and came to Ye Fei and showed another handful of "dog food" on her own initiative.

Then, she quickly turned around and walked out. Sarah was like this, and she never dragged her feet when she did anything.

In terms of economic management, he is definitely born with talent, and he is fast and accurate in doing things!
In the next few days, because 1500 million was not a small amount after all, Sarah had to go to the bank to get it, and the speed of the British banking system was just like that. It was only after Ye Fei's vacation time that the account and money were credited.

In this way, the two-person world is gone, not to mention playing, dancing, and other entertainment activities, which are completely unnecessary.

At 5 o'clock in the morning on May 10th...

When the team is assembled, the first class is the "championship honor" encouragement class for everyone.

In this class, Ye Fei made full use of the competitive spirit of this group of players and made many advocacy, which made everyone have a strong sense of urgency for the FA Cup championship.

It was brought into the pit step by step, and then it was given candy, promising that as long as they won the championship, each player who played would be rewarded with 1 pounds, and those who did not play would be rewarded with 2000 pounds.

This is higher than the wages of many people, especially the players who did not play, whose wages are not high. The 2000 pounds is definitely enough to improve.

Maybe you can still eat a set of "meat food"!

Finally, let out another sentence to re-sign the contract if you win the championship, and all wages will be increased.

Once this set of combined punches is played, it will be fun, and the people below are so excited that they are going crazy.

No way, this is the passion exuded by this team with an average age of 21. Even Messi and Ronaldo will be moved for money, let alone these young guys who have just debuted.

Also, like Basham, Sharp, Dunn, etc., old comrades over 25 years old, money is the foundation of supporting their families, and they come out to play football desperately for money.

With this promise, Ye Fei estimated that he would get an extra 20 pounds, but if he won the FA Cup, he would be rewarded with an extra 160 million pounds.

It is equivalent to more than 1000 million RMB, how could Ye Fei miss such a good thing.

After the first class, super rigorous training followed immediately, and the original half-day training became a full-day training.

At the end of the day, everyone was exhausted. The reason why Ye Fei dared to practice like this was because there were still 20 days before the competition!

As long as the control is good and the players are not injured, his idea is to increase the amount and let some players break through the bottleneck period.

For example, Zhang Yuning, Basham, and Alisson, whose ability values ​​have exceeded 80, now it is extremely difficult to improve a little bit.

Because the ability value of 80 points has reached the starting level of the Premier League giants, what they lack is the experience of the competition, so Ye Fei can only increase the amount of training to improve the players' stress resistance.

Another reason is that their FA Cup opponent is a powerful gunner-Arsenal!

And they also have a world-class godfather-Wenger!
This is an unprecedented challenge and pressure for Ye Fei.He has never been nervous before the game, but this time he couldn't sleep for a few days.

To be honest, if Arsenal's players are of personal strength, they don't have a star level, at most they have a few star levels.

But it was such a team that allowed Wenger to bring them to the FA Cup final and the third place in the Premier League.

With one round left in the Premier League, Arsenal conceded the second fewest goals, followed by Chelsea, which ranks first in the league, and the two teams conceded very similar goals.

Conceding fewer goals means that the defense must be particularly good. Under Wenger's team football, the zone defense has been built with great enthusiasm.

Although they don't have that kind of player worth hundreds of millions, Sanchez, who was introduced for 4251 million euros a year ago, has performed very well this season. This is Wenger's favorite practical player.

Coupled with the fact that Ozil, who also spent 4700 million euros on the introduction, sits in the midfield, making Arsenal a truly offensive and defensive team, or a total defense.

Every time Ye Fei thinks of this, his head gets dizzy.

Then it was to study Arsenal's tactical loopholes with assistant coaches and tactical analysts, or to find their weakest and most out of gregarious person!
..............................

In this case, the time is slowly coming to May 5th!
This morning, the Sheffield United team, escorted by more than 1 fans, left Sheffield United for London, England.

The venue for the FA Cup final is Britain's most famous Wembley Stadium, which can accommodate 90000 fans and is known as one of the greatest football stadiums in the world.

Playing here is an absolute treat!
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Sheffield United came to the hotel where they stayed and settled down, and held a pre-match joint press conference with Arsenal.

And at this press conference, Ye Fei was sloppy throughout the whole process, praising how awesome and powerful Arsenal is, and Wenger is his idol, and has always been his guide on the road of coaching.

Such shameless bragging without drafting, only Ye Fei with a thick skin can say it.

Before that, he had never seen Wenger at all!At most, I saw it on TV. Now that I say that, I think I have known him for many years!

Even Wenger himself thought to himself: "Did I really have an intersection with this guy before?"

With such doubts, the press conference ended so simply and hastily. There was no flames of war that the media had expected before, and there was no declaration of war between each other before the game. Everything was so unbelievably peaceful.

This calm continued until 5:31 pm on May 3st...

The FA Cup final is here!

At this second, players from both sides began to enter the field!

"Wow...Wow...it's so big! I've seen Wembley Stadium on TV before, but I didn't expect it to be so big here." Morrison, who was the first to enter the stadium, was like a bumpkin entering the city, screaming in surprise while looking in four directions.

Then the second, third, fourth, and until the last one, everyone's pupils dilated in shock after they came out.

They were all shocked by the size and luxury of Wembley. Compared with Sheffield United's own old stadium that can accommodate 3 people, Wembley is a modern urban stadium that can accommodate 9 people.

This gap is not ordinary!
