One Thousand and Nine Gao Shen, Wash up and Sleep!

"Tell me about you, the world's top coaches, with four Champions League titles in hand, don't you feel ashamed that you play so wretchedly?"

"What kind of team is Real Madrid? It's an aristocratic team, pursuing magnificence, nobility, and elegance."

"But what about you? I'm really sad for the Real Madrid fans who turned Real Madrid into a farmer's team."

After the game, in a small conference room at Old Trafford, Ferguson drank two glasses of wine in one breath and complained a lot, but he still didn't vent the depression in his heart.

The last Champions League game of his coaching career was actually lost to this stinky boy, which makes people feel annoyed when he thinks about it.

Sitting opposite him, Gao Shen looked at him with a playful smile, and drank water from time to time, which he brought with him.

He had already guessed that the old man was so bad that he probably wouldn't even prepare water for him, so he brought two bottles with him.

Facts have proved that do it yourself and have ample food and clothing.

Desheng is sincere and does not deceive me.

"Sir, don't worry about whether the Real Madrid fans are hurt or not, and worry about your Manchester United affairs." Gao Shen still replied cheerfully.

"Did I said wrong thing?"

"That's right, I remember, you also shouted to play offensive football at Manchester United, but why did you shrink like that at the beginning of the first half? And don't forget, we are all better at possession rate, number of shots, and threatening attacks. How many of you..."

Gao Shen said to yourself, which of us is conservative?

"I'm talking about the last 20 minutes of the game."

Gao Shen suddenly realized something, followed by an expression of not wanting to answer.

Your territory, you have the final say.

I still want to get out.

"Okay, let's not talk about the game, let's talk about you and me." Ferguson waved his hand and became more energetic.

"I'm older than you, right? You said you decided to coach after reading my autobiography. I believed you, but what happened? Have you won four Champions League titles? I'm going to retire now, so don't you know how to be polite? "

Gao Shen was full of slander.

Nima, aside from the game, what else can we talk about?

"Sir, isn't that the kind of flattery I said in order to get close to you when I was soft-spoken back then?" Gao Shen had a very surprised expression. Do you believe such kind words?

Ferguson almost vomited blood.

Fuck, are you going to directly press me to death and rub against the floor?

Really don't save me any face?

...

Both of them were actually joking.

Ferguson simply wanted to hit Gao Shen and regain some ground. At first, Gao Shen refused to give up an inch and showed his sharpness, but soon he "surrendered" knowingly and wittily, and gave away two boxes of good wine.

And made a promise that even if Ferguson retires, he will still give him wine on New Years and holidays in the future.

"I heard that you cooperated with Zidane to buy a winery in the Bordeaux region of France."

"You know this as well?"

Ferguson smiled smugly, Xiao Mian, how big is our circle?

A little bells and whistles, can I not know?

"It's a friend of Zidane's. We thought it was just right, so we invested a little each, and it will be exclusively for our Chinese market in the future."

Ferguson's eyes lit up immediately.

The Chinese market is a big piece of fat.

How much alcohol do a billion people drink every year?

The cooperation between Gao Shen and Zidane is nothing, after all, the business of domestic companies is getting more and more prosperous.

In 2012, they even bought a large piece of land in the western provinces of China and built a winery integrating planting, wine making, sightseeing and hotels, with a lot of investment.

As for the acquisition of the Bordeaux winery with Zidane, it is purely a private investment by Gao Shen.

The old jazz was obviously also thinking about the Chinese market, so he immediately mentioned to Gao Shen that he wanted to earn some retirement money.

Gao Shen also agreed, as long as he can help and cooperate, he will support it.

...

"To be honest, sometimes I really want to suggest that the research institutes at Cambridge and Oxford universities take you and slice you to see how your brain is different from ours."

Ferguson stared at Gao Shen suddenly, and said with emotion.

"How to say?" Gao Shen became interested.

"Varane is really good, and Carvajal, that Casemiro is not easy, and look at Leeds United..."

At this point, Ferguson suddenly sighed and said something that made Gao Shen's heart skip a beat.

"I really want to buy Leeds United directly."

"What's the meaning?"

"Players, that group of players is really good, and many of them are still very much needed by us at Manchester United."

Ferguson hired Schneiderlin from Leeds United, which is really useful.

Now Manchester United's standard configuration is that Carrick lags behind and Schneiderlin moves forward, which directly allows Manchester United to straighten up in the Premier League.

But Carrick is old, so he must find a successor, right?

Jorginho was doing really well.

There is also midfield, Paul Pogba has shown a high level of performance for two consecutive seasons, and the improvement is very obvious.

Vidic and Ferdinand in the defense are both old. Coulibaly's physical fitness is really eye-catching, and he has excellent ball ability, which is even more difficult.

Compared with Salah and Coutinho, which many teams pay attention to, Ferguson is interested in the substitute teenager Zaha.

Speaking of which, Ferguson's taste is quite unique.

It was Bolasier before, and now it is Zaha. He has a soft spot for this kind of pure winger.

"I have submitted a proposal to Ed Woodward, we want to buy Paul Pogba back." Ferguson said.

Although he is about to retire soon, but before he retires, he still hopes to leave a fortune of his own to Manchester United.

Now Carrick can still play for another two years, Schneiderlin is still young, if there is another Pogba, then the midfield configuration left by Ferguson can still fight for at least a few years.

"Okay, let's talk to Fernando Lucas when the time comes." Gao Shen was straightforward.

Ferguson stared at him for a while, shook his head and sighed.

"At the beginning, I didn't sign a repurchase clause with you, it was a big loss."

"I can't say that, Sir, in the past two or three years, we have invested a lot of resources in Pogba. What you see is his progress, but what you can't see is our investment in him. "

"Actually, we sell players at a conscience price close to the cost."

With a snort, Ferguson immediately sprayed out the red wine in his mouth, "Conscience price?"

Gao Shen nodded seriously.

"Then where did the new training base you are going to start come from?"

Before Gao Shen could speak, Ferguson added, "I heard about the investment of 70 million pounds. My God, apart from Manchester City, which club is as arrogant as you?"

"Tottenham Hotspur just built a training base with an investment of 45 million pounds."

"That's different." Gao Shen immediately protested, "We have a football field dedicated to the youth team, and some other facilities and departments, Tottenham don't have it, and our logistics team..."

"That's right, they didn't invite a master like Norman Foster to design it, did they?"

In terms of design fees alone, Leeds United will be much higher than Tottenham Hotspur.

But I have to say, the effect is also very good.

When Norman Foster's design was announced, it immediately aroused huge repercussions in the media, fans, and architectural circles all over the world. The top training base.

However, the investment of up to 70 million pounds is indeed prohibitive for all teams.

So many people say that Leeds United is a prodigal.

With this money, it is better to invest in the club.

But looking at the current Premier League rankings, Leeds United is ranked sixth, which doesn't seem too bad...

"To be honest, I really didn't expect you Leeds United to carry it until now." Ferguson was very surprised.

There are many dark horses who performed well in the first half and fell sharply in the second half.

But Leeds United can still hold on to the sixth place until now, and their team's performance is getting better and better, especially some players in the team, which is an improvement that is visible to the naked eye.

"Is your kid planning to expand the Elland Road Stadium?" Ferguson asked gossipingly.

Now many media outside are rumoring that Leeds United will expand the Elland Road Stadium, but Leeds United has not responded, mainly because the current situation of the team is still very unclear.

For example, he performed well this season, but then he will face the issue of contract renewal and salary increase.

In the past two years in European football, salaries have risen considerably, and the value of players has also increased, starting to show a momentum of soaring.

The Russian billionaire Rybonolev acquired Ligue 1 Monaco and threatened to make a big acquisition in the transfer market this summer.

Nowadays, the trend of the entire European football world has risen, and the value of players is rising, which cannot be suppressed.

As the big fat that bears the brunt, Leeds United now has to consider a problem. It is very difficult to ensure the team's combat effectiveness and control the salary structure.

If you can only choose one of the two, Gao Shen will definitely choose the salary structure without hesitation.

The strength has declined, and we can slowly make up for it, as long as we keep relegation.

But if the salary structure is broken, it will be a disaster for any club.

Although there was such a plan, Gao Shen didn't reveal a word.

"What's the point of expanding? You know me, that's not my style of doing things."

Ferguson was obviously taken aback, "You mean..."

"I plan to build a brand new football stadium. The capacity is at least 60,000 people. After it is completed, it must be the best football stadium in the world of football and even in the sports circle."

Ferguson let out a huff and laughed outright, "Did you take the wrong cup?"

"To build a football stadium like the one you mentioned, which can accommodate more than 60,000 people, it costs at least 300 million pounds, which is still the most rudimentary kind. But if you want to build the best football stadium in the world, you don't need 500 million pounds. Definitely can't take it off."

After a pause, Ferguson reminded: "And it's sterling."

"With the current revenue of your Leeds United, even if you sell everyone in the current first team, it will not be enough to make up the money, and no bank dares to lend you so much money."

After all, Leeds United's foundation is too weak.

"So, you should wash up and sleep, there is everything in the dream."

Gao Shen also laughed, "Think about it, what if it comes true?"

"Then accumulate slowly, and there is a long way to go." Ferguson regained a little confidence.

Gao Shen, a young man, has a beautiful wish, but the reality is cruel.

Ferguson concluded: Leeds United's new stadium will not be seen for at least ten years.
