Chapter 356 I don’t believe what you say, only what you do!
Among the Premier League BIG5, only Chelsea completed a coaching change in the summer.
Grant's failure to turn was unexpected.
Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, who resigned after leading Portugal through the European Cup, came to Stamford Bridge to take office.
Barcelona purged players in the summer, and Chelsea recruited Deco, Scolari's favorite from the Portuguese national team.
Barcelona then launched an offensive against Sevilla's Alves in the signing process.
When their offer of 3500 million euros was accepted by Sevilla.
Leeds United also made an offer of 3500 million euros for Alves.
Seville is in pain!
I secretly hate Leeds United for not making an offer earlier.
So that they can sit back and watch, watching Barcelona and Leeds United raise each other's prices.
But the matter has come to this, and Sevilla's senior management also chose to accept Leeds United's offer.
This time Shen Hao did not come forward. The club's negotiation team went to contact Alves, and all the processes were in order.
Barcelona's new coach Guardiola is a little helpless. He can only urge the department responsible for transfer negotiations to work hard and go all out to win Alves.
It was a fair choice for Alves.
The packages offered by Leeds United and Barcelona are similar.
And he finally chose to join Barcelona.
The main reason is that he is familiar with La Liga. Apart from the problem of team running-in, at least there is no cross-league adaptation test.
In addition to life factors, Barcelona obviously has an advantage over Leeds United in this regard.
The failure to win Alves will not be a grudge for Shen Hao.
There are only a handful of players he can like at the full-back position in today's football.
Maicon, Alves, Lahm, Marcelo... there are only a handful of truly top full-backs with irreplaceable strength.
...
Leeds United's signings this year have clearly fallen short of expectations.
It seems that after the failure of attacking Messi, Leeds United's ambitions in the transfer market have also plummeted.
The main thing is that my horizons have become higher.
It is already difficult to find your favorite player among the known famous players.
So Shen Hao had to use the system's scouting radar function.
This time he spent a total of 6000 points.
Two worthy goals were harvested.
And quickly took down both players.
"Leeds United signed 500-year-old Kyle Walker from Sheffield United for a compensation fee of 18 million pounds!"
"Leeds United signed 150-year-old Christian Eriksen from Danish club Odense for €16 million!"
Kyle Walker came to the team to participate in training and will serve as a substitute rotation player in the first team in the new season to gain experience.
The 16-year-old Eriksen was directly loaned to Portimao by Shen Hao.
The plan is to let Portimao train him for two or three years, and then see if he is needed by the first team when his strength improves.
In the summer, 5 players left and 3 players came, but only 2 players actually remained in the team.
But for the overall structure of Leeds United's first team, the thickness of the lineup is still reasonable.
After all, those young players in the past could play more important roles, and their playing time would also increase accordingly.
During the summer preparations, the players of Leeds United's first team paid more attention to Neuer's performance.
Because various signs reveal that Shen Hao attaches great importance to Neuer.
Some veterans have already guessed that Leeds United's goalkeeper position will change in the new season.
Shen Hao looked at Noelle, feeling happy in his heart.
This goalkeeper with a potential of 189 can be said to have the potential to rival all the legends of the goalkeeper position in the past ten years in today's football.
The goalkeeper position is easy to move. If you want to move, you must be stable and prepare for the long term.
According to Neuer's current strength, it will probably take another 2-4 years to enter the ranks of top goalkeepers.
But now that I have come to Leeds United.
Shen Hao will definitely find ways to help him quickly cross the top threshold.
In late July, Leeds United went to Southeast Asia for a seven-day Asian training camp.
Two warm-up matches will be held in Malaysia and Singapore.
Everywhere he went, the streets were packed with people, and the fans in Southeast Asia were extremely enthusiastic and wanted to worship Leeds United.
Leeds United continued its past warm-up match style and turned the friendly match into a friendly match.
Facing two opponents with the title of star team, Leeds United easily scored double-digit goals.
It’s enjoyable for the fans to watch.
Then they returned home with applause and cheers, appearance fees and sponsorship contracts.
This year's Rose Cup, Leeds United invited Ajax, Paris Saint-Germain, and AC Milan.
The gathering of three teams in Leeds triggered another wave of local football craze.
Leeds United performed normally in the warm-up match, winning consecutive games.
After the match against AC Milan, Shen Hao had dinner with Galliani.
Galliani did have something to talk to Shen Hao about.
"Are Leeds United interested in signing Ronaldinho?"
Shen Hao has nothing to hide from Galliani.
After all, the two had a pleasant experience working together.
Whether it is sending Vieri to Milan City, or Rui Costa, Stam and the others came to Leeds United.
As for the Champions League final, Leeds United defeated AC Milan.
But this does not affect the continued exchanges between clubs.
They are not mortal enemies.
"There is none at the moment, and I don't know why he insists on joining Leeds United. If I were really interested in him and wanted him, then I would have made a purchase offer to Barcelona long ago. You know my style. "
Galliani nodded after hearing this. He did not doubt Shen Hao.
Because it is not necessary.
Leeds United can offer Messi 1.2 million euros. Do they have concerns about Ronaldinho?
Just quote if you want.
He sighed: "I don't know why, but he seems determined to go to Leeds. Even Chelsea's new coach Scolari failed to persuade him to change his mind."
Shen Hao smiled and passed by.
He didn't want to explore Ronaldinho's inner world.
Anyway, there is no intersection.
Galliani told another story.
"Manchester City has changed its owners again. This time the backend is a Middle Eastern consortium. Their purchasing power is amazing. I asked Kaká about it. He is still pursuing Robinho from Real Madrid. The Premier League team is getting stronger and stronger. , enviable."
Manchester City changed hands again in the summer.
Former boss Thaksin Shinawatra had to sell off overseas assets because of his involvement in lawsuits.
Manchester City club was taken over by a Middle Eastern consortium.
How much money the Middle East consortium... has in their hands depends on how much oil they are willing to dig out.
With a piece of cloth on my head, I am the richest in the world.
Shen Hao sighed: "Yeah, the cost of running a club is getting higher and higher. It's all the changes brought about by this group of rich people. The Premier League's top salary of 10 pounds per week has become the norm in the past few years. It's because Abramovich took over Chelsea. The upper limit of the maximum salary.
Now that Manchester City have become rich overnight, I hope they can stop. "
Before Abramovich joined Chelsea, a weekly salary of 10 pounds was unimaginable, and it was rare.
But after Abramovich took charge of Chelsea, in just two or three years, there were a lot of players earning £10 a week in the Chelsea team alone.
Leeds United have extended contracts with most of their players this summer.
Ronaldo, Deisler, Modric, Kompany, Ze Roberto, Baines...
Among them, Ronaldo's weekly salary has risen to the weekly salary level of 12 pounds.
But this is no longer the top salary in the Premier League. It can only be said that it is not far away and belongs to the top salary level.
Other players also saw significant salary increases.
Because the increase in the maximum salary limit will inevitably lead to an increase in the cost of the median salary structure.
Even though there is no such thing as equal distribution in football.
But if the salary gap is too big, everyone will have emotions.
Galliani raised his red wine glass and clinked it with Shen Hao, and said with a smile: "How can Manchester City stop before they win honors? The first step is to enter the Champions League in the Premier League, and then challenge for the championship. Challenges, and then Europe, the competition in the Premier League is so fierce, which also means that Manchester City needs to continue to pay a high financial price, but also has to spend time to accumulate accumulation. This process will gradually impact the entire league, and even European football. But ultimately it comes down to how much they are willing to invest.”
Shen Hao smiled and said: "Let them do whatever they want. Leeds United can go from the British Championship to the current height. How can we not allow other teams to also forge ahead and reach the top?"
Galliani gave a wry smile.
In comparison, AC Milan is really in decline.
Of course, this is inseparable from the entire Serie A environment.
The Calciopoli scandal has dealt a heavy blow to Italian football that will probably take decades to recover from.
Simply put, match-fixing brings the league into disrepute.
Even their local fans have begun to be stingy about entering the stadium to watch games. Can they still expect more and more fans around the world to like them?
After having enough wine and food, they parted ways.
At the end of the Rose Cup, Leeds won three consecutive victories.
Shen Hao is quite satisfied with the preparation and warm-up throughout the summer.
Although he could see that Robben sometimes seemed preoccupied during breaks, probably still thinking about the beautiful scenery of Madrid.
But he didn't worry.
When the transfer market door closes.
Players should also concentrate on working hard for the team.
Enter August.
Shen Hao received good news first.
Bai Muxin happily told him: I am pregnant with the baby!
Shen Hao could only be happy for her, but he did not express his deep hope that his third child would be a girl.
Before the Community Shield contest comes, Shen Hao returns to China in a hurry.
He specially brought Vanessa Kirby with him on this trip, and of course she would also take Arthur with him.
Shen Hao, who stayed on the bed to rest in the luxury first-class cabin, accompanied Arthur and showed his time management skills to the extreme.
On the opening day of the Chinese Olympic Games, Shen Hao took Vanessa Kirby, mother and son, shopping in the imperial capital in a relaxed manner.
But before nightfall, he received a strange phone call.
...
There is less than an hour until the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
Shen Hao came to the Bird's Nest Stadium, which was specially built for the Olympic Games, and first settled Vanessa Kirby and her son, letting them stay with Li Fen and Shen Yao.
Shen Guoqiang has not returned, and Portimao still has a warm-up match to play.
Then Shen Hao walked around the stadium and came to a lounge.
After entering, I saw Ronaldinho and his agent brother Assis.
Ronaldinho stood up quickly, and Assis stepped forward to shake hands with Shen Hao. After saying hello, he deliberately bypassed Shen Hao and locked the door, for fear that someone would come in and break up their meeting.
This is when Assis mobilized all the relationship energy to create an opportunity for Ronaldinho to meet Shen Hao, and the time was still very short.
Although Shen Hao was invited to meet.
But he behaved like a master, reaching out for Ronaldinho to sit down, and he sat on the single sofa.
He raised his wrist to look at his watch.
“The opening ceremony is still half an hour away and we don’t have much time, so let’s make a long story short and get to the point.
Let me tell you first, why Leeds United did not take any action after you stated that you wanted to join Leeds United.
I'm disappointed in your performance over the past two years, your trajectory is downward!
On and off the field.
I don't mind how exciting a player's private life is, but everything has to be measured.
You give me the feeling that nightlife is your main job every day, and going to the stadium to play games is just for fun. "
Ronaldinho was actually mentally prepared. After all, Leeds United had not made an offer for him in two months.
He was a little panicked now.
He always felt that Leeds United would eventually make an offer for him, but it would only consume Barcelona's patience and test his determination.
But seeing that the new season is about to start, Ronaldinho knows that it cannot be delayed any longer.
He is now playing in the Olympic men's football team with the Brazilian Olympic team.
Ronaldinho is not a eloquent person, at least in front of Shen Hao, he cannot defend his past behavior.
So he also got to the point.
"What changes do I need to make to make you change your view of me? Or in other words, so that I can join Leeds United."
Shen Hao looked at Ronaldinho.
In fact, he never expected to meet Ronaldinho in this way.
"I believe you have heard a lot about Leeds United from Ronnie. We have an advanced and scientific training system and an excellent medical team. We can provide players with better career development conditions and environment, but this is not In order for players to come to Leeds United and enjoy it, we need warriors who are willing to fight for victory as a member of the team and go all out to defend glory.
You're not an average player, you're supposed to be unique, but when you're on a downward trajectory, I don't want to inculcate professionalism in a 28-year-old player, or be conflicted by the most basic work attitude.
Two years ago, no team in the world would say no to you.
Today, two years later, I see too many uncertain factors in you.
I don’t want to see the all-pervasive Fleet Street making headlines with photos of you and Ronnie hanging out in nightclubs, nor do I want to see you playing instruments in the bar all night, let alone being talked about for how many women you’ve slept with.
What I want to see is Ronaldinho's wonderful performance played repeatedly on the screen. I want to hear the praises of you from all over the world. I want to see you create more classic moments on the court. I want to see you more and more. I want to see your smile after victory after victory.
Can you promise to give me what I want? "
Ronaldinho fell into a brief silence.
Then he said firmly: "I can promise you, work hard to achieve what you want!"
Shen Hao stood up and reached out to Ronaldinho.
The two shake hands.
Shen Hao smiled when he saw the other party.
"Don't be too happy. Generally speaking, I won't believe your words, just like I never believe in Ronnie's guarantees to me. I only believe in what you show me with your actions.
Leeds United will make an offer for you to Barcelona tomorrow.
If Barcelona doesn't let him go, we will make some efforts, but if we can't reach an agreement in the end, at least I won't bully you.
At the same time, I also hope you understand that if you join Leeds United and your performance cannot meet my requirements, I will decisively give up on you. "
Ronaldinho's smile became a little helpless.
The Tyrant of Leeds is better known than meeting him.
Resolute and powerful as a tiger!
