Chapter 890 Expansion of the Manor Territory
This time when Yang Cheng came to Liverpool, in addition to dealing with Messi's transfer, he also needed to go back to Beihai Manor. Carson had called before, and an old manor on the west side of Beihai Manor next to the Thames River was ready for sale. , Carson believes that Yang Cheng Yang Orange should be bought, so that it can be connected with Beihai Manor to expand the territory of the manor, and secondly, the value of the manor can be increased through the increase of the land area. The most important thing is that the price is not too expensive. , you must know that it is quite a miracle to find such a large area of land on the banks of the Thames.
Beihai Manor covers an area of only 60 acres, but Carson said that this manor has an area of 125 acres, which is more than 500,000 square meters. If it can be taken down and connected with Beihai Manor, the land area owned by Yang Cheng is not large. It is inferior to the duke fief in the past.
And what Carson said is correct, in this way, the value of Beihai Manor will double. Of course, whether to buy it or not needs to be investigated on the spot.
Now, Yang Cheng came to the Melwood base by car. The new base is under construction. Before the completion of the project, Melwood is still the main place for the Red Army's daily training and life.
In the office of the base, Yang Cheng met the head coach Loew who had just held a tactical meeting. He hadn't seen him for half a year. Mr. Loew, who used to be a gentleman, had exhaustion written all over his face. A little gray.
Yang Cheng couldn't help feeling that not everyone can do the job of a football coach.
"Boss~" Love revealed a little tiredness in his eyes.
Yang Cheng motioned him to sit casually, and asked Ian El's secretary to bring over two cups of coffee, and then asked concerned, "Have you been working hard recently?"
Love smiled wryly, could he say: Isn't it all the pressure from you?
Last time because of the grades, Yang Cheng called and sprayed Ian Ayer all over his body. Looking back, although Ian Ayer didn't scold Love, he exerted invisible pressure through several conversations.
Thanks to the hard work of the players, they have won successive rounds in recent rounds and stabilized their position at the top of the standings. The Champions League group stage is also advancing all the way, and the pressure on Loew suddenly eased. Otherwise, he would not be in the mood to sit and drink coffee with Yang Cheng now. up.
For the giant clubs in European football, the head coach has never been a long-lived career.
"Fortunately, the current situation of the team is good, and the cooperation between the players is becoming more and more tacit. The whole team is full of confidence in all competitions. As long as there are no large-scale injuries, the championship is just around the corner." Le The husband's loud words made Yang Cheng hear a different meaning.
The head coach obviously had something to say, Yang Cheng touched his chin and asked tentatively, "What does Mr. Loew think of the two football superstars Messi and Ronaldo?"
Yang Cheng and Ian Ayre did not disclose the rumors to Loew in advance about Messi's transfer. It can be said that they have been kept in the dark. But now that there is a lot of noise outside, how could Loew not know? ?
To be honest, his first reaction at that time was anger, but it was followed by surprise, and at the same time, he felt that the burden on his body was a little heavier.
Love can understand people like Yang Cheng's preference and dedication to stars, and such a big cause is not something that a head coach can intervene in. The team must have plans without telling the team, so after the anger passed, Love was very upset Calm down quickly.
No coach on this planet dares to say that he does not want to coach superstars like Messi and Ronaldo, but if he can really coach one of the peerless twins,
In the end, there were no good results. The fans will definitely unify their position and point the finger at the coach. After all, you can't win the championship with such nuclear weapons, which can only show that your coach is not strong.
"Boss, regarding Messi and Ronaldo, I have also expressed my opinion in the media before, and that is what I say from my heart. Compared with Ronaldo, I appreciate Messi's comprehensiveness, and they insist on letting me learn from them. Choose one of the two to coach and I will choose Messi."
Yang Cheng was very surprised. He didn't know much about football. Although he scolded the national pigs a lot, he really didn't have the ability to say something. He knew more about Messi and Ronaldo. It only exists on the surface. Now that he heard such a judgment from a professional top professional coach, it is no wonder that he was surprised. Could it be that he guessed wrong? Love does not exclude the arrival of Messi?
"Why do you say that?"
Loew replied, "Cristiano is indeed a very good player, he is very professional, and he is simply an unbelievable goal machine, but in my opinion, Messi is the most complete player, he can Go past all the players and get the ball into the goal."
Yang Cheng lowered his head and suppressed a smile. He felt that Love was exaggerating, but he didn't expect his coach to be a plum~
"Now there is one of the most accurate evaluations of the two of them in the circle. Ronaldo moved his position forward by 20 meters, while Messi moved his position back by 20 meters. The strange thing is that their number of goals is very low. More or less.
This comment is enough to prove everything. "
Hearing this, Yang Cheng nodded, but decided to speak clearly, "Then you won't refuse Messi's arrival, will you?"
Loew didn't make any detours anymore, and said bluntly, "On the contrary, Messi joining at this time will do more harm than good to the team."
Seeing Yang Cheng frowned, Loew hurriedly explained, "There is a reason for me to say that. First of all, the team has been well-formed and the state is getting better. At this time, Messi's joining will destroy the perfect balance of the team, and it needs to be reorganized." Running-in, especially technical and tactical aspects, must be rebuilt. The season has already begun, and we cannot afford to delay;
Secondly, Messi is undoubtedly a top player, but he has never left Barcelona in his career and has not proved himself in other leagues. Compared with Ronaldo, who became famous in the Premier League, this is undoubtedly a big disadvantage;
Finally, I am worried that the arrival of Messi will interfere with the players' self-confidence. They will think that they are not good enough and can only rely on a superstar like Messi to win the championship. This is a fatal blow to young players. "
Yang Cheng pressed his hands, "I understand, but don't worry, Messi's transfer has too much impact, it is definitely impossible to complete it during the winter transfer period, and it will be next summer at the earliest, you have enough time to solve the problem.
Mr. Loew, I hope you understand that my expectation for Liverpool is not only the return of the championship. I am a businessman and hope that my investment will be perfectly returned. Messi is a crucial piece of the puzzle, so no matter what How about Messi, I’m going to make a decision. I hope you can let go of all prejudices and work hard to help Messi integrate into the team and help him adapt to the Premier League. Don’t forget that Messi’s career is limited, and Mr. Loew you still young. "
While pointing out that it is imperative for Messi to join, Yang Cheng also reassured Loew that Messi will not play for a few years, and if there is no accident, Loew may die in Liverpool. The importance is self-evident .
Sure enough, after receiving Yang Cheng's hint, the wise Loew immediately stated, "Don't worry, boss, as long as you give me enough time, I will definitely let Messi shine in the Premier League."
After a pause, Loew asked, "So Messi has decided to join?"
Yang Cheng smiled and shook his head, "Not yet, but the duck he got can make him fly?"
Loew didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but he still saw Yang Cheng's confident performance. It seemed that Messi's joining Liverpool was already a sure thing.
. . . . . .
After chatting with Love for more than half an hour, after drinking the coffee, Love left and Yang Cheng flew back to Beihai Manor by helicopter. Carson brought Anna and his servants to wait.
Yang Cheng jumped out of the helicopter against the strong wind brought by the propellers. There was drizzle in the air. The sky was clear when he left Liverpool, but when he arrived in London, it caught up with the drizzle. This damn weather, come and scold once.
Carson came forward with an umbrella, protecting Yang Cheng from the rain, "Master, welcome back~"
"I haven't seen Carson for a long time, how are you doing?"
When the two entered the room, Anna hurried up to take off Yang Cheng's coat, and sent a towel to dry her wet hair.
"I'm great, master. Thank you for your concern. Please go to the living room. I invited the real estate agent over and asked him to introduce the details of the manor next door."
Carson remained unsmiling and quickly entered the role.
Knowing his character, Yang Cheng didn't say much, simply wiped his head, and took a sip of the hot chocolate from Anna, a warm current slid down his throat, driving away the chill.
The two walked into the living room one after the other, and a white man with long blond hair and a suit and leather shoes stood up and greeted Yang Cheng from a long distance away, "Dear Mr. Yang, I am Mike Andrew, a real estate agent. I'm Mike, I'm very happy to be a guest at Beihai Manor, this is really a great castle~"
Sure enough, the real estate agent's mouth was tight, and a few words shortened the relationship with the client.
Yang Cheng smiled lightly, walked up to shake hands with McAndrew, then pointed at his big back, and joked, "Nice to meet you, please make a special trip, your hairstyle is very handsome~"
McAndrew stroked his blond hair and said excitedly, "Thank you Mr. Yang for your compliment. I think so too. If Mr. Yang has time, I can introduce you to the neighbor next door."
Yang Cheng had no choice but to drink hot chocolate and asked, "I heard from Carson that this manor covers an area of 125 acres? The location is perfect, why is it vacant until now?"
McAndrew nodded, spread out a picture album on the table, which contained photos of the manor next door, and said with gestures, "Yes, this is a manor with a beautiful view of the Thames River and the surrounding area. It covers an area of 125 acres. It was once used by aristocratic families as a racetrack, but it has not been maintained for more than 30 years, because the cost of maintenance and renovation is too high, and the descendants of the original owner cannot afford the cost, so they can only remain vacant there."
