Chapter 174 This Guy Is Hyping!

Football has entered the 21st century. In fact, the pace of football's complete industrialization has been nearly completed. In a world where "resource management is everything", football clubs have diversified their player networks so that clubs can quickly recruit any young player who does not have a professional contract. With the high-profile appointments of some European national team coaches, the negative impact surrounding the hiring of foreign coaches has been gradually diminished.

Whether at club or national team level, football has always been hierarchical, with a few strong teams winning so many titles.

However, in 2004 this rule was subverted by an obscure team and its head coach who knew where their weaknesses were and exploited them in their tactical system to minimize risk And maximizing their gains, they achieved the most incredible victory in international football.

This is Greece!

Football has been enthusiastically sought after by the people almost as soon as it was introduced to Greece, but the Greek national team has rarely had a laudable victory.

It was not until 1980 that the Greek national team entered the finals of major international competitions and was given the opportunity to participate in the European Cup that year. However, their Italian summer was short and unpleasant, and they went home after being beaten by the Netherlands and Czechoslovakia in the group stages and a 0-0 draw with West Germany.

It was 14 years later that the Greeks had another chance to prove themselves on the world stage, but their performance at the 1994 World Cup was even more disappointing, the team not only stopped in the group stage, but also failed to score a goal and were eliminated by the team. The three opponents in the group stage, Argentina, Bulgaria and Nigeria, scored 10 goals.

Since then, the strength of the team has gradually improved in the recovery, and it is only one step away from the finals of the 1996 European Cup and the 1998 World Cup.

But that's all, it's really not worth mentioning compared with the strong European teams, and even speaking, it is not easy for Greece to enter the European Cup finals.

Such a team can win the European Cup! ! ?

If there is a metaphor. It is estimated to be compared with the Chinese team entering the World Cup finals in 2002. At that time, the Chinese team entered the World Cup finals for the first time. Who can expect the Chinese team to win the World Cup championship? It is estimated that it can only be YY in my head.

That's almost impossible.

Greece won't get to that point, but in previous years it was difficult for teams to enter the finals of the European Cup. How difficult it is to count on them to win the European Cup. It's entirely conceivable.

Therefore, the 2004 European Cup has become a 'Greek myth'.

'Myth' is called a myth. It is because no one thought that among the 16 teams in the European Cup, Greece was the bottom of the table. At the beginning of the game, their odds of winning the championship were at least 100 times, that is to say, they only needed to hold down 10,000 pounds. So in the end there will be a profit of 1 million pounds. Even after deducting the huge tax of 20%, it would still be £800,000.

In regular bookmakers, there is an upper limit for a single team’s personal pressure. In the UK bookmakers, it is 5,000 pounds. The European bookmakers in the Netherlands are higher, but only 8,000 euros. These two are the most formal bookmakers in Europe. , the two companies together. Almost monopolized the entire sports betting industry in England, precisely because it was a monopoly. Therefore, their scale is quite large, and there is no need to worry that they will be "bankrupt" and have no money to compensate.

Wansheng can bet on Greece with peace of mind, and even a small bet on a single game.

As long as the course of history does not change, millions of pounds are naturally trivial.

Wansheng has nothing to worry about. Although there is a 'butterfly effect', only one player from Derby County is in the national team, and it is Cahill. He represents the Australian team and is not eligible to appear in the European Cup, so he This 'butterfly' basically will not have any impact on the European Cup.

Wansheng won't explain so much, he just talked about Greece, but Kevin Tagore is still incredulous, even if he doesn't know much about football, he knows how difficult it is for Greece to win the European Cup.

"Are you sure this isn't a waste of money?" Kevin Tagore asked.

Wan Sheng smiled and said, "Don't you believe my vision?"

"You always have to say why!"

Wansheng shook his head, "The reason is that this is a kind of gambling. Gambling, you understand? If you go to beat Italy and France, there will be basically no profit at all. Trust me! "

This sentence makes Kevin - Tagore can only smile bitterly.

He believes in Wansheng's vision, at least in terms of stock investment, Wansheng has proved a lot of things, and he is also very successful in the coaching industry, but that's all, suddenly saying that he is optimistic about Greece... He still feels very unreliable.

Fortunately, it doesn't require much investment, and tens of thousands of pounds is not a big amount for the two of them.

It doesn't matter if you lose.

...

Over the weekend, Wansheng was a guest on the sports column of Sky TV.

This is an invitation from Sky Sports TV to the managers of the three upgraded League One teams. They are guests in the sports column, talk to the host, look forward to the Premier League next season, talk about the team and English football, etc. Fans are still happy to watch This kind of sports column that upgrades the coach's views on the league may also be because it is difficult for TV stations to invite the coaches of giant teams.

The League One promotion play-offs have come to an end. In the end, Crystal Palace defeated Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion respectively to obtain valuable promotion qualifications. This is not easy for them. They have only achieved sixth in the league this season. name, but in the end they beat the other competitors and got the promotion spot.

Norwich coach Worthington and Crystal Palace coach Daowei have come a long time ago. When Wansheng came to the TV station, he happened to meet the two of them. The three are league rivals, and they will still be league rivals next season, but now It's not the league season, it's doing a show together, so we also say hello to each other and congratulate the other team on their promotion.

Wan Sheng also echoed twice, congratulating the Crystal Palace coach Dao Wei, after all, the other party has just completed the upgrade.

While the three were chatting, the show was about to start soon.

The host is Christine. The high ratings of this show are related to Christine. She has beautiful blonde hair and always wears low-cut clothes. It brings out the breasts that are much larger than ordinary people, and the towering and deep grooves are thought-provoking. Many people watch the show instead of watching the content, but to look at the groove of this beautiful host.

Soon the show started, and the three of Wan Sheng entered the live broadcast room together.

The three sat down separately. All facing Christine. Christine was sitting with his chest upright. Even Wan Sheng couldn't help but look at that angle twice, as did Worthington and Daowei. Christine had long since looked at the three of them. Getting used to it, she kept smiling. As if not caring at all. On the contrary, he raised his chest even more, and Wan Sheng couldn't help swallowing secretly.

Kristin seemed to see Wan Sheng's action, and immediately she smiled at Wan Sheng, and Wan Sheng could feel the woman wink at him.

"What a goblin!" Wan Sheng cursed inwardly.

Christine is also very interested in Wansheng. Speaking of the three head coaches, in fact, Worthington and Daowei have nothing to say. The two middle-aged head coaches led the team to the second place and the promotion playoffs. way to the Premier League. This is really nothing to talk about, but Wansheng is still very young. Moreover, he has been very famous recently. If he can use the fame of this young Chinese to make himself popular again, it will definitely be beneficial to his career, so Christine is still very interested in Wansheng.

When asking questions, she kept looking at Wansheng.

This made the other two secretly jealous, but Wan Sheng kept his appearance as a gentleman, as if he didn't care about beauty at all.

At the beginning, Christine first congratulated the three teams on their promotion to the Premier League, and then asked the three to look forward to the next season.

Worthington and Daowei basically said that the team will work hard to achieve relegation and the like.

Norwich and Crystal Palace are strong teams in League One, but in the Premier League they can only try to avoid relegation. It is not bad for them to be able to avoid relegation. Small clubs do not have too much investment, and there are no star players. It's tough for them.

Soon it was Wansheng's turn.

Kristin blinked his eyes at Wansheng and asked, "What do you think of next season? Do you have the confidence to lead Derby County to relegation?"

Even if he was prepared in his heart, Wan Sheng was still a little moved by the beauty, but he quickly adjusted, shook his head, and said confidently, "No, our goal has never been to avoid relegation!"

"Oh?" Christine asked Wan Sheng to continue with interest.

Wan Sheng said, “This is not the first time we have come to the Premier League. Derby County was in the Premier League three years ago. Although we were relegated, many people in the team still have Premier League experience. I think that with our strength, we will not only put The goal is to avoid relegation, although we are also a promotion team, but we are not Crystal Palace and Norwich, so our goal is at least to compete for European places!"

The other two coaches mentioned in this sentence turned black.

What does this mean?

Norwich and Crystal Palace can only stay out of relegation, Derby County is not Norwich, not Crystal Palace, so their goal is at least to compete for European competition places?

What logic is this!

If the goal is to get a place in Europe, it's nothing at all, but why must Norwich and Crystal Palace be mentioned? Is this blatant contempt, or something... Worthington and Dao Wei were very dissatisfied with Wan Sheng in an instant, but Wan Sheng didn't care. The three seemed to be joking, but they will become competitors next season. What's the use of keeping a good impression between the two, and he's just telling the truth, Norwich and Crystal Palace are definitely not capable of competing for European places, and Derby County has the strength, so...that's it.

Kristin was also stunned, even though she knew about Wansheng, she still felt that this guy was a bit arrogant!

But that's what makes it attractive!

I am afraid that the fans in front of the TV do not want the three coaches to say that they are working hard to avoid relegation, so what's the point of watching TV shows?

Kristin blinked his eyes at Wan Sheng and continued to ask, "So what will Derby County do to prepare, such as signings in the summer?"

Wan Sheng shook his head and said calmly, "There won't be much changes to the team's lineup in the new season."

"Does Derby County have a chance to compete for a place in Europe just by virtue of the League One lineup?" Christine asked suspiciously.

Wan Sheng smiled, full of self-confidence, "I don't think there is any problem with our lineup, we just beat Manchester United!"

Suddenly Christine felt speechless, and the other two couldn't say anything if they wanted to be ironic.

Yes, Derby County beat Manchester United with this squad. And he played very well, can beat Manchester United's lineup, can't he fight for a place in the European competition?

Certainly!

But just that...it always feels weird, after all Derby was a League One team last season.

By this time, the TV program seemed to have only one guest, Wan Sheng, and the other two. Both Worthington and Daowei are just foils. They feel this way themselves, and sometimes they can't get in if they want to, and they even have to accept Wan Sheng's ruthless taunts.

This feeling...the two even wanted to curse.

Fortunately, they know that this is a live broadcast, but they can't do that kind of demeanor. Fortunately, Christine quickly changed the subject, "The three gentlemen will talk about their views on the Premier League next season? Which team do you think is most likely to win the championship?"

There are only a few teams in the Premier League that have the strength to compete for the championship. This problem is very simple.

"Manchester United will definitely have to supplement the squad in the summer. This season their results are not very good. But next season will definitely be the strongest contender for the title."

"Arsenal have been strong this season. There won't be any big changes to their squad next season, so we still have a good chance of winning the title."

The two said separately.

Manchester United and Arsenal are really strong.

Arsenal are the league champions this season. They have Vieira in the midfield, Henry in the front, and the two flanks and the back are all generals. As long as their strength is not weakened, they will definitely be champions next season. Strong contender.

The same goes for United, who were affected by Beckham's departure last season. The play is not very good, but the rise of Portuguese star C-Ronaldo makes up for Beckham's position. He was not very mature last season, but this season, his performance is still worth looking forward to. In addition, there are rumors in the media that Manchester United are spending a huge amount of money to acquire stars. Everton teenager Rooney is within the scope of Manchester United's acquisition. After the addition of the lineup, Manchester United will certainly be very strong.

Then it was Wansheng's turn.

Wansheng’s point of view is completely different from the two. He is very aware of the development of football in the next ten years. He naturally knows that normally Chelsea will be the champion next season, so he said, “I think Chelsea has a good chance of winning the championship next season.”

"Chelsea? That Russian rich team?" Christine smiled.

The other two didn't even smile.

At this time, many people look down on Chelsea, because Chelsea no longer belongs to the English, and most people think that just throwing money into the transfer market will not really bring any good results, so Chelsea is looked down upon. .

But Wansheng said indifferently, "I think Chelsea will be a good contender for the championship. They have shown a strong performance this season, second in the league. This result is not something that ordinary teams can achieve, and they have just Signing Mourinho, Mourinho led Porto to the European Championship last season, his ability is certain, and I think Chelsea will perform very well in the league next season."

After speaking, Wan Sheng added, "Of course, I look forward to the performance of Derby County, after all, I am the head coach of Derby County."

Christine also laughed.

However, looking at the expressions of her and Worthington, they still disagreed with what Wan Sheng said. But she is the host and will definitely not argue with Wansheng about this, what's more, she is also very interested in Wansheng, and soon he shifted the topic to the upcoming European Cup and asked the three of them to talk about the European Cup separately.

Worthington and Daowei are both talking about France and Italy, the strength of the two teams they think are the most hopeful to win the championship.

However, Wansheng said, "Italy and France are both popular, but I am more optimistic about the host Portugal. As the host, their results will definitely not be bad. If there is a team in the strong team that has a chance to win the championship, I will Going to Portugal, of course, they're not even a strong team, but the hosts always have an advantage."

Wansheng did not point out that this European Cup was actually dominated by Greece, and of course he would not tell others, but the final was the match between Portugal and Greece, and naturally Portugal would perform well.

As for why?

So many football games why!

Kristin listened to Wan Sheng's point of view and continued to ask, "Are you a fan of Portugal?"

"No, I'm not a fan of any team." Wan Sheng shook his head.

While the two were talking, it seemed that both Worthington and Daowei had been ignored, but Christine also felt that their words were nothing new. Look at Wansheng, even if his words are very different, the alternative will always be different. Attractive, and Worthington's views are too popular to be attractive.

"So can you talk about the England team? The England team is now called the strongest England in history. Do you think England has a good chance of winning the championship?"

Wan Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't think the England team is weak. In fact, it is not uncommon for a team to be full of stars, but Eriksen's tactics are too conservative, and the Swedes may become the England team to win the championship. The biggest obstacle!"

This is direct disdain and ridicule.

The ratings of this show are very high. Many people can imagine that Erickson will fight back against Wan Sheng later. Speaking of which, the two are not on the same level, so this young Chinese just wants to use this show. A way to hype it?

Many people disdain Wansheng's statement.

If it's not hype, how can it be said that the current England team has little hope of winning the title? Is the problem with head coach Eriksen? No, no, no, the Swede's performance is still good, and he has almost unanimous support from the whole team, so far no one thinks there is anything wrong with Eriksen leading the team.

Well, this guy is hype! (To be continued ~^~)
