The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 591
As early as 2008, when FIFA announced the implementation of the 6+5 policy and received strong support from UEFA, many people began to spread that this may be UEFA’s move to limit the rapid development of the Premier League team arms.

You know, in the years before and after that, the strength of the Premier League completed a leap forward. As early as Ye Qiu led Chelsea to win the Champions League, then Liverpool won the championship, and then Tottenham Hotspur completed the feat of defending the title. , and Premier League teams have occupied four out of three of the semi-final seats for many consecutive seasons. All signs are showing that if appropriate restrictive measures are not taken for the Premier League, the Premier League will very likely become an oligarchic league in the Champions League.

This is definitely not alarmist talk, because since the phone door, the Serie A league has been in a slump, and since the Bundesliga bubble burst in 2002, the Bundesliga teams have always believed in a healthy management policy, which belongs to Xiaojiabiyu's family management, and La Liga is a long-term one. Caught in a situation where Real Madrid and Barcelona dominate.

Under such circumstances, relying on huge international capital, Premier League teams have acquired top superstars everywhere, from the prosperity of Chelsea, to the revival of Liverpool, to the rise of Tottenham Hotspur, and now Manchester City, West Ham United, The influx of local tyrants such as Newcastle has completely turned the Premier League into a gold dollar league, and the purchasing power of players is invincible in Europe.

Take last season's Premier League share as an example, even the No. 20 relegated team can earn more than 4000 million pounds from the Premier League in one season, and the income of the Premier League is increasing. It is rising steadily, that is to say, the income of the relegated teams in the Premier League even exceeds that of some mid-upstream teams in Serie A and La Liga.

What does this mean?This means that the Premier League team has enough strength to wave their pounds to buy famous stars everywhere, use these stars to strengthen their own strength, and further drive the influence of the Premier League. With the further increase of influence, The Premier League's broadcast fees and various incomes will also increase, forming a virtuous circle.

And you must know that the stadiums of Premier League teams are all private property, and all acquisitions belong to the club. This is unmatched by many teams in Serie A or even La Liga.

The club’s three major sources of income are match day income, broadcast fee sharing, and commercial sponsorship. The Premier League has two of the three major sources of income far exceeding its competitors in other leagues. The Premier League is also the most successful league in commercial operations. One can imagine, if the situation in the Premier League is not contained, how far will the Premier League develop?
But in fact, some people think that such worries are unfounded.

For a long time, the competition in the Premier League has been very fierce, more intense than the current Serie A, La Liga and Bundesliga, and they do not have a winter break, so some people believe that the fierce competition in the Premier League has led to the Premier League teams in the Champions League. It is the knockout stage, which will be affected by the fierce competition in the domestic league.

Of course, some people think that such a statement is incorrect, so the two sides have a lot of controversy.

But just when UEFA was ambitious to implement the first year of the 6+5 policy, 6 teams in the Premier League protested against the FA, and it quickly swept across Europe. Football, and has also been officially recognized and affirmed by the European Union, believing that the so-called 5+[-] policy fundamentally violates the European Union's constitution.

Although in the field of football, both FIFA and UEFA advocate the internal settlement of disputes, and even some violent incidents on the pitch do not involve crimes, but there is no precedent for matters related to the EU constitution, that is, the famous The Bosman Act, which directly led to huge changes in European football.

Therefore, both FIFA and UEFA have to reconsider. Once things become stalemate, will there be a second Bosman Act?Will it further weaken the authority and industry leadership of FIFA and UEFA?
You know, they themselves are not clean, but no one is willing to confront them directly before, but if it really gets stalemate, those rich teams don't need to come forward at all, and they can help a small team to come forward, and they can ruin the world. Football Federation and UEFA, this is also the way they used to play when G14 was still there.

Just when FIFA and UEFA were under pressure, and some insiders revealed that they might reconsider the softening signal of the special situation of the 6+5 policy within the EU, the Premier League started a game. It is a big bargain-hunting acquisition when the European football transfer market is extremely sluggish.

Newcastle, which received capital injection from the Qatari consortium, took the lead in launching a big bargain-hunting acquisition. The Magpies announced that they had introduced Swedish powerful center Zlatan Ibrahimovic from Inter Milan at a price of 500 million euros, which shocked the whole world. The Swedish center forward is regarded by Newcastle's Redknapp as an important sign of the team's revival.

But this was only the first step. Just one day later, Newcastle announced again that they would introduce Robinho, a Brazilian genius who had fallen out with the team, from Manchester City. This Brazilian genius will continue to stay in the Premier League. Odd formed a luxurious double striker lineup, and sources revealed that in order to get Robinho, Newcastle offered a higher salary.

Just when everyone was surprised by Newcastle's big money, Liverpool, which was acquired by the Indians, finally showed an ambition that had never been seen in the past ten years, and began to show courage in the transfer market.

After Benitez chose to stay with the team, he received a transfer check from Ambani, which was called an unlimited transfer check, so Liverpool quickly made moves in the transfer market. Directly at a package price of 500 million euros, they got Juan Mata and David Villa from the old club Valencia, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Coupled with the current Spanish golden boy Torres and the team's soul Gerrard, Liverpool's strength this season has been greatly improved, especially the strong offensive power of this team. When Leah and Juan Mata formed a powerful attacking phalanx, I believe that the whole of Europe will be panicked.

And soon, the former big local tycoon Manchester City was not to be outdone, and successively won Aston Villa's James Milner, Inter Milan's striker Balotelli, Atletico Madrid's striker Aguero, and Lazio left. Defender Kolarov, although many transfer transactions have not announced the specific amount, but everyone is guessing that Manchester City's investment is also very amazing.

After all, Aguero alone is worth as much as 500 million euros, and the other players are basically famous European stars, which makes Manchester City's overall signing strength definitely not weak.

But when people were still guessing whether it was Manchester City or West Ham United, or Liverpool and Newcastle, who would invest more, Manchester City announced three blockbuster transfers in one breath, first with 500 million The euro's worth from the Serie A runner-up Roma introduced wolf king Daniel? De Rossi.

This transfer is a transfer deal hand-picked by Mancini. He believes that the arrival of De Rossi can help Manchester City improve their midfield strength to the greatest extent, and the introduction of Van der Vaart from Real Madrid is also for this purpose. It will give Manchester City a huge boost in midfield.

But what attracted the most attention from the British media and fans was Manchester City's introduction of substitute goalkeeper Joe Hart from Tottenham Hotspur at a high price of 500 million euros. This transfer transaction created a record transfer fee for a Premier League goalkeeper , making Joe Hart the most valuable goalkeeper in England, while Mannich said that Joe Hart's transfer fee is very cheap and cost-effective.

However, some people think that Mancini is having fun in bitterness, because Joe Hart did not play many games in Tottenham Hotspur. not sure.

After signing several big orders one after another, Manchester City seems to have no intention of giving up at all. Instead, it announced in a high-profile manner that it would intervene in the ranks of Manchester United's poaching of Inter Milan's right-back Maicon, and raised Maicon's worth to two in one go. The price of 500 million euros made Manchester United a little daunting.

In the end, after a period of stalemate, Manchester City won the former world's number one right back, Maicon.

Looking at all the transfers of Manchester City this summer, Ye Qiu admired Maicon the most. Leaving aside Maicon's strength, after capturing Maicon for Manchester City, it completely destroyed Manchester United's plan to strengthen their right-wing strength, and Ferguson had no choice. Instead of continuing to worry about the right side, Ye Qiu felt that Manchester City's deal was a good deal.

With the aging of Gary Neville, Manchester United's weakness on the right has always existed. Ferguson tried many players, including Brown, O'Shea, Fabio and Rafael brothers, but the effect was not very good, and even It was last season that Manchester United won the Champions League, but the weakness on the right has always been there.

Therefore, the most important thing for Ferguson this summer is to strengthen the team's right wing. The other introductions of Smalling and Hernandez are all to further strengthen the team's bench lineup. , Manchester City's cross-cut love, not only took away Maicon, strengthened its own strength, but also completely destroyed Manchester United's plan, killing two birds with one stone.

After Ye Qiu heard the news, he even made a special phone call to disgust Ferguson. The old man on the phone was so angry that he scolded Mancini and threatened to make him look good, while Ye Qiu was in a bad mood on the phone. excellent.

Tottenham Hotspur did not operate very well in the transfer market this summer. Neymar and Coutinho both entered the team successively and successfully applied for labor certification, but Lucas Moura failed to get it in the end With a labor certificate, he can only go to Ajax on loan to practice. Ye Qiu has asked Ajax to take care of Lucas Moura.

Ajax sold Alexis Sanchez before and made a lot of money. They sold Di Maria this summer and sent the Argentine to West Ham United for 3000 million euros, making another big profit. A windfall, and all of this should be attributed to Tottenham Hotspur, so they didn't have any hesitation in asking Ye Qiu.

Ajax made money, and Ye Qiu also made a lot of money. Ramirez moved to Chelsea. Ye Qiu not only asked Ancelotti to call him personally, but also knocked Chelsea 500. The high price of [-] million euros, and Ye Qiu didn't spend much effort to bring in Ramirez.

The former boss of Newcastle, Crown Prince of Qatar Tamim Al-Thani talked to Ye Qiu about the transfer in person, and made a list. Newcastle wanted Joe Hart, Falcao, Ziglinski, Several Tottenham Hotspur stars such as Coentrao and Alves.

Long before Tamim Al Thani proposed it in person, Newcastle had applied for a transfer for Thiago Silva, with an offer as high as 4000 million euros, but Ye Qiu rejected it, even unwilling to negotiate In order to prevent players from being poached, Ye Qiu also personally talked with Thiago Silva about this matter. The captain of Tottenham Hotspur expressed his willingness to stay in the team.

Thiago Silva is able to be what he is today, and Ye Qiu’s further study and cultivation of him in the past few years are inseparable. Therefore, he himself loves and respects Ye Qiu very much, and he also has great respect for Tottenham Hotspur. He has feelings, and now that Ye Qiu has spoken, he chooses to stay without any hesitation.

Besides, 4000 million euros is enough to take away the captain of Tottenham Hotspur?joke!

But soon, Newcastle shifted their target and became Thiago Silva's partner Ziglinski, and offered no less than Thiago Silva's worth of 500 million euros, but Tottenham still refused.

When Tamim Al-Thani started negotiations with Ye Qiu in person, the crown prince of Qatar was indeed a big local tycoon. He didn't talk too much at first, and agreed to the sky-high price of 500 million euros. The Portuguese left-back Coentrao, who performed very well on the field, offered a high price of 3000 million euros.

Two transfers, Ziglinski and Coentrao, Tottenham Hotspur knocked Newcastle for 500 million euros, plus Joe Hart's 500 million euros, Tottenham Tottenham's three players have a net income of 9000 million euros, making them the biggest sellers in the transfer market.

But just when everyone thought that Tottenham Hotspur might stop at this point, especially considering Ye Qiu's principle of selling people, it should not be sold again, but unexpectedly, Tottenham Hotspur It was soon announced on the official website that the team had agreed to West Ham United's transfer request for Rodamel Falcao.

Soon, the Colombian also announced through his agent that he accepted the contract treatment submitted by West Ham United, and expressed his gratitude to Tottenham Hotspur for his cultivation, but he hopes to prove his strength in West Ham United and get Approval and affirmation from all.

The interpretation of this from the outside world believes that the reason why Falcao chose to leave Tottenham Hotspur has something to do with Ye Qiu's preference for Cavani. What is interesting is that both players were poached at the same time. Vani has attracted the attention of teams such as Newcastle, Inter Milan and Real Madrid, while Falcao has also been seduced by teams such as Real Madrid, Newcastle, West Ham United and Manchester City.

Under the situation of choosing one or the other, Ye Qiu finally chose Cavani and gave up Falcao.

But as the number one black shop in Europe, it is not an easy task to make Tottenham Hotspur let go, especially considering that Falcao currently has competition from teams including Real Madrid, Newcastle and Manchester City, so Tottenham Hotspur had an advantage in the transfer, but West Ham United finally made a compromise. The player transfer fee was as high as 7000 million euros, completely surpassing Ibrahimovic and becoming the top player in this summer's transfer market. The number one mark on the king.

When this explosive news came out, everyone had only one feeling, and that was black!

too dark!
You must know that when Tottenham Hotspur brought Falcao from Ajax a year ago, they only paid a transfer fee of 500 million euros, but one year later, Falcao's worth is as high as 7000. million euros, although in the past season, Falcao has shown the strength of a top scorer, but it is only one season.

More people think that, Tottenham Hotspur's price bonus for selling stars in the past, as well as Ye Qiu's personal charm, coupled with the competition from many wealthy teams, ultimately left him without the slightest advantage. , West Ham United, which can only rely on non-stop spending money to attract players, paid a sky-high price for the Colombian center.

Falcao's sky-high price of 7000 million euros immediately aroused huge repercussions all over the world. The name of West Ham United Chairman Rybonovlev once again appeared on the pages of the world's media, and the shock caused even shocked Liverpool. The news that Javier Martinez was introduced from Athletic Bilbao for 3000 million euros was completely covered up.

Benitez wants to build a Spanish gang in Liverpool, but it is clear that stars are king!

After selling four players, Tottenham Hotspur received a transfer fee of up to 6000 million euros, but as in previous years, Tottenham Hotspur once again stated that the team will not take high Ye Qiu paid [-] million euros to the London Olympic Organizing Committee, and this was also the last payment for the Stratford Stadium.

After paying this sum of money, Tottenham Hotspur can already wait for the end of the 2012 game to take back the Stratford Stadium, but after taking it back, it probably needs to invest more than 2000 million euros. Transformation, after all, Tottenham Hotspur have very high requirements for the home court.

According to Ye Qiu, the team wants to build the most advanced seven-star stadium in the world.

Not only that, but the Tottenham Hotspur real estate company has announced a new plan, which will invest [-] million euros to acquire an unfinished project in Gunnersbury, West London. It is next door to Tford, which is regarded as an emerging commercial office area in London, including the famous Chiswick office park.

Chiswick Office Park is regarded as an emerging commercial office park in London. The rent is cheaper than the financial district, but the appreciation potential is huge. Large companies including PepsiCo, Swarovski and Tullow Petroleum have settled in this area.

The unfinished project that Tottenham Hotspur took over is just south of the Chiswick campus. Like all buildings in West London, it is a low-rise building with only five floors, but there are six buildings in total, covering an area of ​​150 square meters. acres, the surrounding traffic is very convenient.

Affected by the subprime mortgage crisis and the European debt crisis, the developer went bankrupt and fell into an unfinished stage. At the beginning of this year, Blackstone Group evaluated it, valuing it at 3000 million euros, but no one took it over. Todt After Nam Tottenham's bottom-hunting this time, it is expected that in the next year or so, that is, before the end of the project, they will continue to invest about [-] million euros in funds.

However, considering that the current office rent per square meter in the surrounding area is 20 pounds, which is still [-]% lower than that of the Eastern Financial District, it has attracted many large international companies to settle in, and the potential for future appreciation is great, so what do you think of this transaction? Very good deal.

Ye Qiu has been buying real estate in London for the past few years, whether it is in the financial district or in the east. Now that he has entered the west, the properties currently held by the Tottenham Hotspur real estate company have a high valuation, but Ye Qiu didn't plan to make a move for the time being, at least until after the London Olympics.

And he feels that being a charterer is actually a very good choice. After all, in the UK, especially in places like London, real estate prices will definitely rise for a long time in the future, and there is no need to doubt this.

After all, Ye Qiu is now a professional bargain hunter!

But Ye Qiu's company has a dedicated person responsible for these matters, so he doesn't need to be involved or worried at all. The most urgent thing he needs to do now is to adjust the team's state for the new season, and at the same time pay attention to the team's leftovers after selling players. For the vacancies that come down, make appropriate signings, and he basically has goals and ideal targets for these.
