Moreover, football is a very complex and systematic sport. Even in 2013, when the world's technology is so advanced, there is no way to systematically and scientifically sort out all aspects involved in football, and then come up with a law and method that can guarantee winning.
Because it involves people, teamwork, tactics, and even the diet and daily life of the players before the game and many other fields, and no one can find out a winning rule from such a huge amount of data.
Therefore, in the field of football, although there are high-tech assistance, the most important thing is the most traditional, experience!
Experience can only be felt, not expressed in words. Some people are born with it, but some people can't learn it in their lifetime. It's hard to say.
After listening to Nana's words, Li Yuxin fell into deep thought. He remembered the conversation he had with Santa Cruyff when he went to the Nou Camp to watch the Barcelona game in 2011!
Sitting outside the balcony of a four-star hotel room under Barcelona, looking at the street below the hotel building, the excitement before the big game is everywhere, and there are Barcelona fans everywhere, and you can feel the strong atmosphere of the game anytime, anywhere.
According to Cruyff, this kind of atmosphere is often seen in La Liga this season. Since Barcelona regained its strength, the passion of Barcelona fans has reached its peak.
"Fans are very real, no matter what team they are fans of." Cruyff sighed.
The Dutch footballer specially came to the hotel to visit Li Yuxin. Although he is the godfather of football in Barcelona, he is also a football legend. Therefore, it is common to visit the team before the game. After chatting with other people for a while, he chatted with Li Yuxin in the room.
Today, Barcelona has continued to have extravagant hopes for the league championship and Champions League qualifications. The league championship is no longer a problem. All they can strive for is to qualify for the UEFA Cup. For the proud Barcelona people, it is simply an unacceptable result.
Of course, no one will attribute all the achievements to Guardiola. In fact, Guardiola has done a good enough job. It is Laporta who really brought Barcelona a revival. After Guardiola took office, the team’s performance has improved by leaps and bounds, and the team has performed very well. But without Laporta’s management, to be honest, because the predecessor wasted too much money...Barcelona earned more than 5000 million US dollars from Figo, but it was spent in one season. , In the next few seasons, the players who spent a lot of money on the introduction could not bring Barcelona back to form. Perhaps the only worthy of their worth is Motta bought from Mallorca... Now Barcelona has no money. 4000 Two million is the highest price we can offer. If you still don't agree with this, there is nothing we can do. Laporta was filled with resentment when he thought of this passage. If it hadn’t been for that idiot Gasparte who left him such a mess, why would he say it so bleakly in front of Jose? You must know that a membership club like Barcelona doesn’t need to consider the balance of payments at all. Out of the money to inject capital into the club.
And Barcelona's expenses in the next season may be much less, because Kluivert's contract with an annual salary of 470 million has expired, and Barcelona does not intend to renew his contract. At the same time, Saviola, who has an annual salary of more than 400 million, will also be loaned out by Barcelona.
In the 0506 season, Laporta had cleared Kluivert, whose contract had expired, and was about to rent out Saviola, and deal with the two main forwards of last season. Naturally, a major earthquake was needed on the front line. They are now contacting Monaco's captain Juli. Eto'o, who has long been optimistic, has become a player who must be introduced.
"Laporta has done a good job! The removal of redundant staff in the Gaspart era is effective. This successful move is even more effective than signings." This is not a compliment. Today, wages are increasingly becoming the largest part of the team's expenditure. Clearing up a group of players, the free salary space can do a lot of things. It is important to introduce good players, but it is also important to sell those players who are no longer in the plan, especially those players with high salaries. Kluivert and Saviola with 500 million yuan, Overmars, Riquelme, and Luis Enrique with more than 200 million, Cocu, Quaresma, Reziger, Rustu, Gerard with close to 200 million... On the contrary, the salaries of Ronaldinho, Motta, Valdes, Oleg, Marquez, etc. who performed well last season are not as good as these players who have begun to be unable to play the main force. There is also great damage.
From this perspective, successfully clearing a player with a high salary but not a major player is no less meaningful than introducing an outstanding player.
Laporta was also lucky. The contracts of those players that Gaspart introduced that didn’t fit the team’s plan are almost expiring. Whether it’s termination or loan, they can be completed relatively smoothly. Barcelona, which has saved a lot of salary space, naturally has the confidence to sign in—even if the saved salary is only theoretical rather than cash, but the most feared thing for a club like Barcelona is that they have no money to buy people—because they are a membership system.When the chairman of clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid, the fear is not about spending money, but about not being able to spend the money and not being able to get value for money!
For example, Barcelona's expenditure limit for next season is 5000 million. Originally, their other expenditure budget for next season is 5000 million, so Laporta can only spend 1992 million to buy people, but if Laporta saves other expenses to [-] million, then he can spend [-] million to buy people!The money saved can be turned into cash immediately. This is the terrible thing about membership clubs. Of course, only clubs with a wide membership base like Barcelona and Real Madrid can play like this. Those small clubs will owe a lot of money when they play like this, just like in [-]...
The chairman of Arsenal is not so good in comparison. Of course, their work is also successful. After all, they have saved a lot of cash for Arsenal. According to the "Daily Telegraph" estimate, Arsenal currently has 1.54 million pounds of cash available, while the total cash of the other 19 clubs is only 1.81 million pounds.The money was there, the loss of Champions League qualification was obvious, and both the Arsenal board and Gazidis wanted to support Wenger financially.In this case, Gazidis's negotiating ability is increasingly questioned.
With Arsenal's status as a team, it is impossible to win Gustavo with Wolfsburg. In addition to the salary, Gazidis, who is in charge of the negotiation, has a difficult responsibility to shirk.Since taking office in November 2008 to replace the departed David Dunn, Gazidis has not done much in terms of signings other than commercial achievements.Arshavin is the first important signing he brought after he took office. The good start has not been continued. The embarrassing situation of this season is just a repeat of the 11/2011 season.That year the team also claimed to introduce big-name players, but players such as Benayoun, Mertesacker, and Park Joo-young were not really "big names".
Gazidis negotiations may also be limited by salary.Gustavo switched to Wolfsburg and abandoned Arsenal, a veteran giant that qualified for the Champions League, because of the weekly salary.According to German media reports, the Brazilian midfielder joined Wolfsburg and received a weekly salary of 11.5. Arsenal's current highest paid player is Li Yuxin, with a weekly salary of only 13 pounds!Rosicky and Mertesacker only get 8, and the weekly salary of Cazorla and Arteta's two midfielders is only 7 pounds!Gustavo's refusal of the Gunners' offer proved that the team had no plans to break the wage structure for the Brazilian.
Negotiation ability and salary restrictions are the reasons why the Gunners have no one to sign!
Therefore, the strength of the team will always be determined by the players, coaches, management and objective conditions!
When it was widely rumored that Li Yuxin would transfer to the Nou Camp, the Barcelona management did not come out to deny it. The contract signed with Antić was also a temporary contract that expired after the end of the season. Therefore, everyone knew that Antić’s dismissal after the season would be inevitable. The only suspense was whether the new aid would really be Li Yuxin?
Li Yuxin doesn't think about the future at all now. He now feels that this battle at the Nou Camp is not easy to play, because Barcelona no longer has the burden of La Liga, and even the Copa del Rey.
Cruyff didn't come to be Barcelona's guest. He didn't think that Li Yuxin would deliberately release water. He just wanted to know Li Yu's true thoughts in his confidence and see if he had considered leaving Arsenal.
"You know, no team will last forever, especially for a team like Arsenal. Within two years, the group of players you bring out will be scattered, and your team's performance will be affected. You may even leave because of this. This is the tragedy of a team that lacks funds and influence.
Unlike other guests, Cruyff's statement hit the spotlight of Li Yuxin at this moment.
Last season, only Cesc Fabregas and Nasri were sold, which was the result of Li Yuxin's efforts to save them. Now the team is in trouble again. This summer, the giants split Arsenal.
In Li Yuxin's view, the board of directors gave the green light to this, so even now, their words are still alive, because they know that Arsenal can only continue to survive in this way, and it is not good for the club to force the players to stay. Is it possible to wait until their contracts expire and leave freely?
Sometimes professional football should be like this, only talking about interests, not about feelings.
"You know, what is the one thing I regret the most?" Cruyff asked with a smile.
Li Yuxin shook his head, but he could vaguely guess something.
"Just didn't leave Barcelona at the peak of the team"
This statement is also very realistic. If Cruyff had chosen to retire bravely, then his coaching career in Barcelona would have been perfect, without incompleteness. At least not like many fans now think about it, and can’t help but think that he was ruthlessly humiliated by Capello in the Champions League final and succeeded in revenge by Real Madrid.
Cruyff stood up from his seat and walked towards the railing of the balcony. Standing here, he could overlook the distant city of Barcelona. "Only by standing higher can you see farther. Arsenal can no longer satisfy you, and it is no longer suitable for you."
What can't be satisfied is Li Yuxin's self-motivation, but what is not suitable is Li Yuxin's strategy of insisting on the team's competitiveness. Obviously, the board of directors can't continue to accommodate Li Yuxin in this aspect, and stay. In the end, there is only one result, and they broke up unhappy.
Li Yuxin also stood up and smiled, "There is no doubt that you are a very talkative guest, John, but I don't plan to think about it so much now. For me now, I only have one thought."
Cruyff heard the implication from Li Yuxin's words, and smiled with satisfaction. He admired young people with fighting spirit and self-motivation, and he also felt from the beginning to the end that Barcelona's current problems cannot be solved by changing the head coach, but need to be reformed from the bottom of their hearts.
There is no doubt that Li Yuxin is the best pioneer of reform in Cruyff's view.
"That is to enter the Champions League." Li Yuxin expressed his current thoughts.
Cruyff still maintained a smile. He felt that he had obtained the answer he wanted today, but many things have not yet surfaced, as if the candidates for Barcelona have not been officially announced, Li Yuxin will definitely not express anything.
"Listen, are you going to get married soon?" Cruyff asked with a smile.
Li Yuxin was slightly embarrassed. Since the media broke the news, he had answered this question countless times.
"Yes, I will prepare after the league is over."
"I also heard that the bride met at Arsenal?" Cruyff laughed.
Li Yuxin shook his head, "No need, it must be the one with the big mouth of Van Persie."
Cruyff laughed out loud.
There is no doubt that the biggest news recently is that Li Yuxin is going to have a wedding ceremony.
"How? Are we welcome to watch the ceremony?" Cruyff asked.
Li Yuxin originally planned to invite Arsenal players and some good executives and staff, but he believed that there must still be many uninvited guests at that time. At least those all-pervasive reporters have already started to visit Xiamen. God knows what they will do then?
In a word, this matter is getting bigger and bigger.
"Of course you are welcome, but according to our Chinese rules, you have to give a big red envelope." Li Yuxin bit the big words hard.
How big is it?
