Football coach

Chen Ping did not stay on the training ground.

Martin Anthony?

With too little potential and talent, Chen Ping had no interest.There will be a lot of talented players waiting for Chen Ping in the future.Chen Ping is now considering top talents like Messi, Ronaldinho, Robben, Ribery, and Neymar.Although I don't know why I came to this world inexplicably, but it seems that God is destined to let me meet you geniuses, and then help them become kings.With so many geniuses, how could Chen Ping have the time to care about waste materials like Martin Anthony.

And what Chen Ping is most anxious about now is to find Feroz Carson and sign his first head coach contract.

So instead of continuing to care about Martin Anthony, he went straight to Philoz Carson's office.Around Feroz Carson's office, Chen Ping found many angry fans.

Many people were shirtless, their eyes were red and red, and they looked like they were about to fight someone.Chen Ping understood the anger in the hearts of these Oxford United fans.

After all, there were still League One teams with dreams and a future three years ago, and many people even fantasized about the club going to the Premier League.But in the past three years, the club has changed from a League One team to a League Two team, and will become a League C team next season.There is also a lot of gossip that the club is about to go bankrupt.

Fans are sure to be outraged.

But Chen Ping was in a good mood.

If it wasn't for Oxford United's relegation, if it wasn't for the point where Oxford United was about to go bankrupt, how could I have the opportunity to become the head coach of Oxford United.Therefore, Chen Ping walked into Feroz Carson's office very easily.

"Mr.president."

"Chen, sit down."

Very simple office, empty inside, nothing.Even the chairman of the Oxford United Club in front of him didn't have a secretary.Because the previous secretary had already left the club when the club was downsizing.

The angry voices of the fans outside the office can enter here, but the club president in front of him didn't show any anger or other expressions.His expression was very flat.

"Chen, you also heard the voices outside. I originally wanted to continue to let Matthews coach, because it was not his fault for the poor performance last season. But now that the fans have reacted so strongly, I can only feel sorry for Matthews. Besides Our club can't afford to pay Matthews now either."

"I understand you, Mr. Chairman."

"Chen, you also have three years in the club. You must be very clear about the club's situation."

Said here with a sigh.

Firoz Carson is really miserable, watching the club's relegation step by step, but there is nothing he can do.Players without money have no spirit, players have no spirit, how much can the head coach do.

"Chen, next season we can only play in the English C League, and although the club's financial problem has improved a lot, it is still not completely resolved. So when it comes to salary issues, you have to understand the club. Your salary will only be slightly higher than now Only a little bit."

"I know."

Seeing that Chen Ping didn't care, Philoz Carson could only smile wryly.

If there is a choice, why would Feroz Carson choose a young Chinese coach like Chen Ping, a young coach who is only 27 years old.Five years ago Oxford United was an ambitious League One club, the club in England's second tier.At that time, the club chairman vowed to guarantee that the club would go to the Premier League, and announced a series of grand plans.

Including building new stadiums.The owner of Oxford United at the time assured him that he would bring Oxford United into the Premier League and play in a brand new stadium.

It's a pity that the cowhide is exaggerated.

Soon the club's capital chain broke, and it began to default on the wages of the club's staff and players, and the plan for the new stadium also encountered financial problems. After the end of the 98-99 season, the Oxford United Club was relegated to the League Two (the third level of England).

The owner of the club, in a hurry, sold the club to Philoz Carson for a pound.Although it is a relegation, the Oxford United Club is not so cheap, but the main reason is that they owe too much debt.

A League Two club owes more than £500m in debt.

Philoz Carson was not a very rich man, nor was his net worth that much. After taking over the Oxford United Club in 99, all his energy was put on how to reduce the club's debt.

He sold his manor and began to develop the land around the stadium to reduce debt and ease the pressure on the club.But the club couldn't even pay the salary at that time, and the results can be imagined.

In the 99-00 season, the powerful Oxford United Club ranked No. 20 in the League Two, and it was difficult to avoid relegation.In the just-concluded season, that is, the 00-01 season, the Oxford United Club failed to relegation, and instead lost face in the League Two.Because there were only 46 rounds in the League Two, but Oxford United lost 33 games throughout the season and was conceded [-] goals, setting a record for conceding goals in the history of the League Two.ridiculed by all.

To be relegated, Oxford United can only go to England's fourth tier league, the English C League.

Originally, even if Oxford United were relegated to the English League C, there would be no shortage of coaches. After all, the English League C is also a professional league, and Oxford United is still very strong.Oxford United's relegation from League One is definitely not because of the team's strength, but because of the team's economic problems.Oxford United has not yet solved its financial problems, and even the salaries of the staff cannot be paid in full on time.

Many players are also sold to reduce the pressure on the club.

Therefore, as a relegated team, it has become a popular team for relegation from the English League C.Just after the end of last season, the media said that the future of Oxford United would either go bankrupt, or continue to be relegated from the English League C and go to the amateur league.

Without money, there is still no hope for the team, so it is very difficult to find a coach to take over.The salary of the head coach of the low-level league is not high, and the salary given by Oxford United is even lower, and they cannot support themselves.Therefore, Feroz Carson finally chose Chen Ping, a young coach. After all, Chen Ping also stayed at Oxford United for three years and is familiar with Oxford United.

Moreover, Chen Ping's salary can be very low.

"Some players need to be sold in the summer."

"can."

Oxford Union is poor.

Need to sell some players to raise some money, and can save a lot of wages.For the current Oxford United, hundreds of thousands of pounds is a lot of money.Looking at Chen Ping with a calm face, Feroz Carson suddenly became worried.

Because Chen Ping was too calm.

How could this be so?

Obviously the salary is very poor, let alone the head coach of the English C League, it is the English League C.

The salary of the head coach of the English-African Union club in the fifth tier of the Grand League will be higher than that of Chen Ping.Chen Ping's salary is almost the salary of England's sixth-level head coach.

Also, the club is now demoralized and has to sell some players, which is almost fatal to the head coach.

But why is Chen Ping so calm.

But Feroz Carson can only continue: "The club wants to sign a one plus one contract with you. As long as you can lead the team to avoid relegation in the English League C next season, the club will automatically renew your contract. One year. If relegation fails, the club has the right to terminate the contract."

"can."

Chen Ping nodded again.

Then he smiled and said to Feroz Carson: "I agree with everything you said. But you have to promise me one thing."

"Say."

"I am solely responsible for the team's signings. I will introduce several players during the summer transfer, and I hope the club will not stop it. And if the club wants to introduce any player, it must obtain my consent."

"Well, Chen. It's no problem for you to be responsible for the transfer. But you should know the current financial situation of the club. We can't bring in some players with high salaries."

Philoz Carson said hesitantly.

What Oxford United has to do now is to lose weight and reduce player salaries.Players with high salaries have to be cleared out.

"Mr. Chairman, don't worry. The salaries of the players I brought in are not high, probably not as high as our players. I know the club's situation better than anyone else, and I won't introduce players indiscriminately."

"That's good."

Philoz Carson breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation is really dangerous now.As a newly relegated team, it is considered to be the biggest relegation favorite in the English League C. There is nothing more absurd than this.

But the reality is so ridiculous.

As the chairman of the Oxford United Club, Feroz Kasen knows the current situation of the Oxford United Club better than anyone else.The club has never been able to get rid of the financial crisis, and the entire club has lost its morale.

If you don't pay attention to it, the club may be relegated or face bankruptcy.Just like last season, no matter how weak Oxford United was, it was still a mid-to-upper team in League Two.But the club has no money, and the team has no morale. Without morale, the game is a mess.

Feroz Carson's request is very simple, that is, Chen Ping can avoid relegation.As long as he can avoid relegation this season, then Feroz Carson has a solution to solve most of the financial problems.

"Okay. Chen, here is the contract I prepared. You can take a look."

"Mr. Chairman, I believe in you."

Chen Ping simply glanced at the contract, and then signed his name on the back.A head coach contract in the English League C is not that complicated.

2001年5月25日，陈平正式成为了牛津联俱乐部的主教练，和俱乐部签订了一份1+1的合同。

"Mr. Chairman, you will not regret today's decision."

After signing, Chen Ping stretched out his hand.

Feroz Carson felt that Chen Ping was very strange today.During his three years at Oxford United, Chen Ping has been the busiest member of the Oxford United coaching staff.Due to the reduction of club coaches, Chen Ping, as an assistant coach, has to be responsible for everything.Feroz Carson had also met Chen Ping many times before.

Although Chen Ping has always been neither humble nor overbearing, Feroz Carson really didn't realize that Chen Ping was such a confident person.

The way she looks now, it seems that it is an honor for me to choose Chen Ping.Anyway, Chen Ping didn't have any worries or excitement about becoming the head coach at all.

Instead, he is full of confidence.

"hope so."

Feroz Carson shook hands with Chen Ping.

Feroz Carson looked at the confident Chen Ping, and was in a daze for a moment.Perhaps this young man under 30 years old in front of him can really give himself a surprise?

Philoz Carson immediately shook his head slightly.

The reason why Chen Ping was chosen was because of Chen Ping's low salary and Chen Ping's understanding of Oxford United.He didn't expect much from Chen Ping.

"Mr. Chairman, I'm going to be busy with summer transfers. You don't need to tell me who you want to sell. You can choose by yourself, and then give me a list. But I hope that after this summer's slimming down, next season's minimum player's salary It must be issued normally. The strength of our team is still good, as long as the salary can be issued normally, we can avoid relegation with our eyes closed."

"it is good."

Philoz Carson likes Chen Ping's answer.

After all, Oxford United was relegated from League One to League Two, and then downgraded to League C again.And the relegation speed is so fast that many of the players still have some capable or famous players.

Some of them are even players who play in League One and haven't had time to leave Oxford United.The sale of such players can raise more than one million funds, which can greatly alleviate the current situation of Oxford United.

I was afraid that Chen Ping would not agree.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ping didn't care at all.As for guaranteeing the salaries of the players, as long as the weight-loss plan is successfully completed, there will be no major problems.After all, as long as these high-paid players are cleaned up, the club's financial situation will definitely improve greatly.

"However, Mr. Chairman. Should you also give me certain authority so that I can sign some players independently."

"For players with a weekly salary of less than [-] pounds, you don't need to go through me, you can sign it yourself. Finally, hand over the contract to me, and I will sign it."

"Thank you, Mr. Chairman."

After Chen Ping finished speaking, he left Feroz Carson's office.

Chen Ping went outside and looked back at where Feroz Carson was.From memory, Chen Ping admired Feroz Carson very much.The club should have gone bankrupt two years ago, but it was Feroz Carson who insisted on renewing the life of the club through various methods to keep the club alive until now.

Although Feroz Carson was forced to take over the position of head coach today, but since you choose yourself, Chen Ping will not let Feroz Carson down.If Feroz Carson gave himself a chance, then Chen Ping would let Feroz Carson know how wise his choice was today.

Oxford United.

Although it is only a club in the third league, Chen Ping is now full of confidence.Your coaching journey starts here.
