The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 241
"This Ye Qiu is really good. Looking at the current European football, who can do better than him?"

Inside one of the VIP boxes at Highbury, Chelsea boss Roman Abramovich was grinning from ear to ear as the referee blew the half-time whistle, without even thinking about it In just a few months, Ye Qiu brought him such a huge surprise.

The 12-game winning streak at the start shocked the whole of Europe, no, the whole world. Who else can beat Chelsea?
Thinking of Ye Qiu's self-confidence back then, he could rebuild a wealthy family with money and time, and he said it with great pride. Although Abramovich was optimistic about him at the beginning, he also felt that it would not be so fast, but he did not expect that in a blink of an eye, he Just did it.

Today's Chelsea is not a giant, but it is the most eye-catching team in Europe, surpassing countless giants!

Originally, Abramovich gave Ye Qiu a transfer budget of 3 million euros, but in the end he kept more than half of it, saying that he wanted to support the team in building the Cobham training base, which was completely in accordance with Ye Qiu's plan. Requests and plans for construction will benefit Chelsea's future.

"Ye Qiu is indeed outstanding, but that's because you had a good eye at the time, Roman. If there are so many handsome men, choose him!" Pini Zahavi, who was sitting next to Abramovich, smiled. Talking aside, especially when talking about Ye Qiu, what gathered in his eyes was not friendliness and approval, but deep jealousy.

"Don't praise me. I know my own business. At the beginning, I said I wanted to buy Veron, but Ye Qiu refused. He felt that Veron was not suitable for his tactics, so he insisted on bringing in Deco. Look at Deco's performance now. He is much better than Veron, and sometimes we have to admire the vision of professional coaches." Abramovich praised with a smile.

He didn't notice that when he mentioned Veron, Pini Zahavi's eyes were obviously gloomy.

The Israelis now feel very sad and angry, but helpless. He feels that he has worked hard to pick up girls, and finally succeeded in proposing marriage, but in the end, another man entered the bridal chamber and robbed the bride. place to cry!

Before, he did everything possible to please and encourage Abramovich, hoping to use the strength of Russia's rich man to raise his influence to a higher level. He didn't think being a broker was a promising thing, because Feng Shui turns and turns, and this industry always goes round and round.

At the beginning, Figel in Brazil was known as the godfather. Almost all Brazilian players went out through his relationship. Almost everyone thought that he could not fall like the Argentine agent Muscati, but now?Figel is obviously not popular. In a few years, maybe Figel will follow in Muscati's footsteps.

30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, this is the trend of football and the sorrow of the agent.

Pini Zahavi just wants to get close to Abramovich's thigh, from buying and selling players before to buying and selling teams. After Abramovich bought Chelsea, he hopes that he can become Chelsea's transfer team. The only partner who will deal with the key position of buying and selling players.

Therefore, after Abramovich bought Chelsea and invited Ye Qiu to coach, he took the initiative to propose to Abramovich to introduce Veron and Crespo. These two players have a very good relationship with him now. , the former Abramovich has also seen.

Unexpectedly, after convincing the Russians, Ye Qiu directly stopped him. Veron went to Inter Milan, and Crespo did not come to Chelsea. Instead, he brought in a dark and unknown Didier Drogba. There is also a Deco from Porto.

If Chelsea's performance is worse, Pini Zahavi will feel better, but the terrible thing is that today's Chelsea has really swept the entire Europa League as Ye Qiu said, winning 12 consecutive victories in all competitions For such an astonishing record, who would dare to question Ye Qiu?

Pini Zahavi couldn't reap benefits from the formation of Chelsea, but Ye Qiu's beautiful agent, Eliza Moon, this young woman is indeed powerful enough to directly participate in every deal of Chelsea. Transfer, not to mention earning enough profits, but also to further expand her business. Although her reputation is not obvious on the surface, and fans generally don't know her, she is already one of the most famous brokers in Europe in the circle. one.

In the end, the foundation that he had laid down so hard turned into someone else's wedding dress. Pini Zahavi's mood can be imagined. If he can talk about masturbation, he is simply excluded from Chelsea's inner circle.

However, Pini Zahavi is a fine human being. It is not by luck that he has been able to get to this day. He knows how to observe people and how to get along with others, when to endure and when to retaliate. very clear.

"Roman, don't be too humble. Although Ye Qiu is indeed a very good head coach, you are not bad. You have boldly delegated authority and entrusted him with important responsibilities. Without your trust and support, it would be impossible for him to have what he is now. momentum!"

After a pause, Pini Zahavi smiled, "When talking about Ye Qiu's Chelsea, almost no one in Europe does not give a thumbs up. If he wins the championship again, his momentum will be even bigger than it is now. Bigger!"

After hearing Pini Zahavi's words, Abramovich's originally smiling expression became a little stiff, especially when he heard the sentence of Ye Qiu's Chelsea, which made his very possessive heart sink. I just don't feel very comfortable.

"We still need him very much now!" Abramovich quickly showed a smile again, but the smile was somewhat lacking in the joy from the bottom of his heart before, because he knew very well that now everyone just Know Ye Qiu, but not Abramovich.

It's not that Ye Qiu is stealing the limelight, but the media likes to chase him, and the Premier League has always attached importance to the tradition of head coaches.

Pini Zahavi knows how to read words and expressions, and he has been paying attention to Abramovich's expression. This shrewd businessman knows Abramovich well, even better than those professional managers. That's why He was able to accompany Abramovich to watch the game in the VIP box at Highbury, but the reason why the club's acting CEO Paul Smith could only sit on the business seat outside, even if Peter Kay, who was poached from Manchester United in the future Nien, it's hard to sit here.

As a successful person like Abramovich, he has a strong desire to possess, and his purpose of coming to the Premier League is also very obvious, which is to boost his influence in the place of Europeans, but the current situation seems to be On the contrary, although his popularity has soared, almost most people think of Ye Qiu when they mention Chelsea.

This is a very contradictory complex. On the one hand, Abramovich does not want to always show his face, but on the other hand, he wants everyone to know him, know him, and even admire him.

High skills will definitely shock the Lord!

This is why everyone will say that today's football world simply cannot accommodate a second Ferguson!
"I think, after Peter Kenyon comes, the power structure of the troika we planned before will still have to be implemented, you know, when the power is monopolized by one person, especially when this person may leave anytime, anywhere. Man, this is a big taboo for you and the team!" Pini Zahavi said lightly.

Abramovich looked down at the court, his brows were furrowed, expressionless, but he showed a cold smile, he couldn't tell whether it was a sneer or a joking smile, "You are overthinking, Pini, Ye Qiu said, He's going to stay at Chelsea for a long time and, look, he's brought in two more young players from Barcelona, ​​and the meaning couldn't be clearer, and I'm sure he won't go."

Zahavi accepted it as soon as he saw it, he just wanted to plant a seed in Abramovich's heart, "That would be the best!"

That's the end of this topic, and neither of them continued to say anything more.

"By the way, Pinney, have you learned about Everton's Rooney recently?" Abramovich asked.

Pini Zahavi nodded. If the agent in the Premier League didn't pay attention to him, he would definitely fail, because after Irving gradually lost his golden boy aura, Rooney took advantage of the trend and became the new hope of England fans. Manchester United and The two giants of Arsenal are scrambling to get him, and it depends on who succeeds.

"It is estimated to get him, about 3500 million pounds." Pini Zahavi said.

"So high?" Abramovich was a little surprised, because he recently went to Juventus to learn about Nedved's market through Pini Zahavi. There has been contact, but an Italian agent revealed that if the price is 3000 million pounds, that is, around 4500 million euros, Juventus will release him.

AC Milan's Andriy Shevchenko is a fellow of Abramovich. He also wants to get the Ukrainian nuclear warhead. AC Milan refuses to negotiate, but Pini Zahavi said that if the bid is right, it is not completely out of the question , but the price must be 5000 million euros higher.

Calculated in this way, wouldn't Rooney's worth be about the same as Shevchenko's?
"You know, the local account in England is so valuable!" Pini Zahavi said with a laugh.

After hearing this, Abramovich shook his head helplessly and amusedly, "Damn and cute Englishman!"

…………

…………

The start of the second half still maintained the stalemate of the first half.

But there is an obvious sign that Chelsea's defense is no longer as high as it was in the first half, but Arsenal still has no signs of counterattack, and their offense still lacks a deadly threat.

But when Chelsea wanted to slow down the tempo appropriately, Arsenal suddenly launched a wave of offense, directly speeding up the tempo, and created two kicking opportunities, respectively in the 54th and 57th minutes , Gilberto Silva and Pires' long-range shots all directly hit Van der Sar's arms and failed to create a threat.

But this moment made Ye Qiu feel bad.

This group of Chelsea players are all international players, and they all participated in two national team matches during the two-week national team match day, coupled with running back and forth, as well as the national team's training camp, so their state is not good at all.

Of course, Arsenal and Chelsea are also the major victims of the disaster for the national team, but the problem is that Arsenal's players obviously have a better understanding. They have played together for a longer period of time and their cooperation is more skillful. Ye Qiu's Chelsea has just been formed. Once the physical fitness declines, The shortcomings of lack of tacit understanding will be magnified, and their cooperation with each other will easily cause problems.

"He looks like he's got us by the tail!" Ten Carter said with a laugh.

"If you haven't figured it out until now, and haven't found a countermeasure, then Wenger is not Wenger!"

Ye Qiu never regarded Wenger as a fool. On the contrary, Wenger was definitely an opponent worthy of respect. Even if he had always been weak in on-the-spot commanding, that was compared to the top coaches. Everyone else, Wenger is outstanding.

"Let Gallas go to warm up, Maicon's physical fitness is obviously not good!" Ye Qiu shook his head and said.

Sun Jihai also played for the national team. He ran back and forth, and his physical fitness was also not good. Ye Qiu didn't plan to use him in this game. French defender William Gallas can play multiple positions on the left, center and right of the defense at the same time. Hit a dozen right.

But not long after Ye Qiu asked Gallas to go out to warm up, Arsenal launched an attack from the left.

After Pires pulled the ball to the left line to catch the ball, he took advantage of the opportunity to kick the ball forward. Henry, who was pulled to the side and was ready to respond, retreated from the front, leaving Maicon, who was physically weak and obviously unable to keep up with his rhythm, behind him. , After receiving the ball, he knocked back to Pires who was running towards the gap in the middle, and then quickly inserted himself into the penalty area.

After Pires got the ball, he didn't stick to the ball anymore, he pushed it directly, and transitioned to Bergkamp's feet. The Dutch Ice Prince passed it to Ljungberg on the right. The Swede went into the penalty area and shot low without stopping the ball .

Van der Sar has been shifting and changing his position with Arsenal's passing and receiving. His performance in this game was very stable, and he repeatedly resolved Arsenal's offensive crisis. The combination of passing and receiving the ball was really fast, and Chelsea's left and right ribs were hit for a time.

When Freddie Ljungberg kicked, Van der Sar instinctively made a flying jump to catch the ball, and he did catch the ball, but he couldn't make it far, and the ball fell to the left side of the penalty spot. At this time, Henry, who just sprinted in from outside the penalty area, directly faced the incoming ball and missed it, and shot the ball into the empty goal.

Maicon, who was chasing after Henry, was out of breath, staring straight at the Frenchman who had succeeded in a follow-up shot. Can’t catch up with Henry’s speed.

"1:1!!! King Henry of Highbury equalized for Arsenal!!!"

The on-site commentator shouted excitedly and excitedly.

"Arsenal's offensive coordination this time is very beautiful, and very quickly, from the left to the right. Chelsea, who have defended Arsenal tightly throughout the game, finally showed their flaws this time. Strictly speaking, this It was one of the few mistakes Chelsea made in the game, and the only one that was fatal, but it was caught by Arsenal."

"Looking at the whole game, Arsenal and Chelsea didn't make too many mistakes in this game. Chelsea had only one fatal mistake, and Arsenal had two, but both teams seized the opportunity, but Chelsea wasted one. Now the situation It's obviously worse for Chelsea because their players are obviously not fit enough."

"Of course, Arsenal players also face the problem of lack of physical fitness. The impact of the national team's match day on them is still very obvious. This is why the G14 collectively pressured and complained against UEFA recently."

After seeing Arsenal equalize the score, Ye Qiu heaved a sigh of relief, because he could tell that the team had lost the ability to beat Arsenal, so he quickly replaced Mai with Gallas. Kong, and then replaced Deco with Ribery, pulling Lampard's position back a bit.

After two consecutive substitutions and adjustments, Chelsea's overall formation gradually retracted.

It is the first time for Ribery to make his debut in such an important game. He has played several times this season, basically as a substitute. His performance is average, neither good nor bad. This time he is very excited. , but Arsenal is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Ye Qiu asked Riberidola to go to the side to get the ball, but the Frenchman failed to create a threat in the end.

The only bright spot came in the 82nd minute, eight minutes after Arsenal's equalizer, when Ribéry used Arsenal's left-back Ashley Cole to press on the right flank and what was left behind In neutral, after Chelsea steals the ball, he quickly slashes behind him, forming an anti-offside.

In this quick counterattack, Ribery's explosive power was very obvious, but following it, Ribery was obsessed with dribbling the ball from the side and did not form an inside cut to echo Drogba, wasting a godsend opportunity in vain .

France's Scarface made a cross from the right. Drogba was flanked by Kolo Toure and Campbell in the penalty area. Although he grabbed the point, he was caught by goalkeeper Lehmann in time and failed to hit the strength.

This made Ye Qiu on the sidelines want to scold her, because such an excellent opportunity was wasted by the two of them.

But Ye Qiu was not discouraged, and immediately replaced Gudjohnsen with Joe Cole, continuing to strengthen the attack.

Chelsea's players lack physical fitness, and Arsenal's players are not much better. The two teams are playing at their best, and no one has taken advantage of it. On the contrary, Chelsea's players are obviously more dominant in physical fitness, so in After replacing Joe Cole, Chelsea began to regain the advantage of the game.

On the contrary, Arsenal, who were playing at home, saw that Chelsea still did not give up their offense and began to strengthen their defense. Cigan replaced Pires, Parlor also replaced Ljungberg, and Edu also played...

In the end, Chelsea failed to score against Arsenal again. The first direct dialogue between Ye Qiu and Wenger resulted in a 1:1 draw. It is to stop the momentum of Chelsea's 8-game winning streak, and the impact momentum of Chelsea, a heavy tank, has been contained.

I just believe that after the game, the media will definitely hype the curse of the Premier League's best coach of the month and Chelsea's 13-year invincible curse against Arsenal.
