I am Crazy About Money in Football

After retiring, no matter what Ballack does, Ye Feng doesn't have to worry about his life.

After all, Ballack was once the working emperor, with a total annual salary of more than 150 million euros throughout his career, which is definitely at the top level in football.

Of course, after tax, only half of it is left.

As long as Barack doesn't lose his mind and indulges in extravagance, and has a little bit of financial management concepts, he can live a comfortable life.

As for whether he will have a higher level of spiritual pursuit, that is his own problem.

Anyway, when you reach the level of Ballack, no matter whether you are a coach or a commentator, you will not starve to death.

Ballack's farewell game is over, and it is destined to be as popular as the Champions League final.

In addition to the protagonist of Ballack, Ye Feng, the guy who stole the show in Ballack's farewell game and derailed the entire farewell game in one fell swoop, has naturally become a hot topic of conversation.

I knew that Ye Feng would not let this opportunity go.

Barack: Inviting Ye Feng to my farewell game was a mistake.

Barack had passed out in the toilet crying.

Even Ballack was led astray by Ye Feng and actually scored an own goal. Can you believe it?

I guess Balak and Ye Feng are no longer friends. It's okay not to have such friends.

I want to know now, when Ye Feng has his farewell game in the future, will Ballack come back with revenge?

Ye Feng: The labor and management won't hold a farewell game. I'm going to piss you off.

...

It is estimated that after this time, Ye Feng will not be invited to any farewell games of retired stars. He has been blacklisted by everyone.

For example, Bayern's main goalkeeper Butt is already planning to retire. Now it seems that the first thing he needs to remember is not to invite Ye Feng.

Naturally, Ye Feng would not take these ridiculing remarks to heart.

Do you think it will be okay if you don’t invite me?

Haven't you ever heard of the word uninvited?

I don't believe it. I'm so shameless. How can you still not let me play?

Let me see who retires next?

...

Ye Feng did not participate in several warm-up matches and qualifying matches of the German team. He took advantage of the holidays to return to China and visit his grandparents. This has become his habit.

As for whether there is any other purpose for returning to China, only he himself knows.

At this seemingly calm time in football, the transfer market is always turbulent.

The summer transfer window is here, and everyone should clean up, strengthen, and use this opportunity to build a more competitive lineup. This is the unanimous goal of all teams.

Of course, not everyone can achieve their goals, because you don’t know whether the person you sell will suddenly become a big player for other teams, and you don’t know whether the person you buy is a legendary parallel import.

Anyway, let’s heat up the transfer market first.

However, everyone's general understanding is that today is a small year for transfers, and there will not be any big moves.

What is a big deal?

Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer fee of nearly 100 million to join Real Madrid is a big deal;

Kaká’s move to Real Madrid is a big deal;

Ibrahimovic’s transfer to Barcelona is a big deal;

As for the 30-40 million transfer, it can only be called a blockbuster.

There is no doubt that there will be no shortage of blockbuster transfers this summer.

Ye Feng also always pays attention to the football transfer market. After all, he is also a football practitioner. If he doesn't even care about major football events, it would be a bit unreasonable.

Among them, the one that impressed Ye Feng the most was Manchester City.

The oil tycoons are waving a lot of euros and searching for stars unscrupulously. They are not worried about not being able to pay, they are only worried that the players they are optimistic about will look down on Manchester City.

45 million euros bought Aguero;

27.5 million euros bought Nasri;

There are also Clichy and Savic, who are worth less than 10 million. This is the first time in three years that Manchester City has invested less than 100 million in transfers.

But even so, Manchester City's lineup is luxurious enough, and even Ye Feng feels that they may have great achievements.

Of course, the premise is that they can get rid of the name of mercenaries.

There are several players in the Manchester City team who have interacted with Ye Feng.

For example, center Dzeko was competing with Ye Feng for the Bundesliga Golden Boot more than a season ago.

The other is David Silva. Ye Feng has played against him in the World Cup and is also an outstanding player who is very difficult to deal with.

Maybe, the tycoon Manchester City can really make a splash in the Premier League in the new season.

Real Madrid's lineup is relatively reasonable, so the investment is not large. They bought Coentrao, Varane and Shaheen, which can be regarded as minor repairs.

Barcelona bought back Fabregas, and then bought youngster Sanchez, with a combined investment of more than 70 million euros.

Chelsea also made several blockbuster transactions, buying Marta, Lukaku, Meireles and De Bruyne.

Comparatively speaking, the Bundesliga has always been more sensible than the other four major leagues in transfer investment. The Bundesliga's financial balance policy makes it easy for them not to invest blindly.

Except for Bayern, almost no other clubs see transactions worth more than 10 million. If you didn't know, you might think that all German clubs are poor.

Not to mention, Bayern really spent a lot of money this season.

Ye Feng received a call from Neuer two days ago. His contract with Bayern has been signed and he will wear a Bayern jersey to fight for Bayern in the new season.

In fact, this deal was negotiated long ago, and it was only officially signed when the summer transfer window opened.

In the new season, Neuer will fight side by side with Ye Feng again.

In addition to Neuer, another member of the Schalke 04 bad boys also joined Bayern.

That person is Rafinha.

Perhaps Bayern's senior management wanted to find a substitute for Lahm and Alaba, so Rafinha, who can play both left and right and has a tacit understanding with Ye Feng, came into their sights.

In the end, the deal cost Bayern 1,000,000 euros.

In other words, at least three members of the Schalke 04 Bad Boys will reunite at Bayern in the new season. This is simply to reorganize the rhythm of the Schalke 04 Bad Boys.

No!

Maybe it should be called the Bayern Bad Boys now.

What's even more interesting is that maybe Farfan is on his way too, and then there will be four of us...

But the strange thing is that Bayern, which has always been interested in Farfan before, seems to have no clue and no idea what happened.

Is it because Bayern has no money?

Neuer costs 30 million, and Rafinha costs 10 million. In addition, they are reserved because they need to strengthen the back line. Maybe Bayern really can't escape the money to buy Farfan.

Ye Feng felt a little regretful. He still wanted to be teammates with Farfan. With Farfan as a free man in the frontcourt, his forward penetration would be much more powerful.

Could it be that this style of kicking will become a swan song in the future?

Ye Feng will naturally not interfere in the team's transfer operations. Countless history tells him that when you expand to the point where you need the club to surround you, you are not far from death.

Therefore, Ye Feng wouldn't even ask.

The result of this is that he is completely unaware of the progress of the club's transfer operation and the deeper reasons.

Just when Ye Feng was staying in China and enjoying a wonderful vacation, suddenly a piece of news made it impossible for him to remain calm.

Bayern's trusted head coach candidate has been confirmed!

Looking at this name, Ye Feng was stunned for a long time. He never thought that Bayern's new head coach would be him.

Originally, he always thought Grande had a chance to become a regular player.

After all, Bayern's temporary head coach Shengsheng led Bayern to achieve a double championship. Even though the Bundesliga has the foundation laid by Klinsmann, the Champions League is Grande's real achievement.

After leading the team for two months, he won two major championships. Such a story may only happen in myths and legends.

How could he not reuse a head coach with such a good reputation and good results?

Therefore, Ye Feng has always felt that Grande can become a regular player and will officially lead Bayern in the Bundesliga and Champions League next season.

Although Grande's coaching ability is not very good, he can manage the locker room very well, maintain a very good relationship with the players, and knows how to play to the team's advantages. At least Ye Feng feels that Grande is qualified to continue coaching Bayern.

How about Klinsmann?

Although Ye Feng feels that his tactical coaching ability is not very good, he should at least be better than Grande.

But if you can't manage the locker room well and handle the relationship with the players, no matter how capable you are, you will never achieve any results.

Moreover, now that Bayern is at its peak, it is the time when its performance is at its best, and not every coach is willing to come.

What if Bayern loses its legs next season?

He was a double champion last season, but this season he has diarrhea, and he, the head coach, is taking the blame.

Therefore, not everyone is willing to take over this kind of Bayern.

Taking all things into consideration, there are not many people who are more suitable than Grande, but there are definitely not many.

But now?

It's really funny that Bayern chose such a head coach!

Ye Feng found it unbelievable anyway.

Guardiola!

Guardiola, who just left Barcelona, ​​became Bayern's new head coach!

You know, Barcelona coached by Guardiola had just lost to Bayern in the Champions League final. Within a few days, Guardiola became Bayern's head coach...

Ye Feng didn't know what to say for a moment!

Public opinion also boiled because of this. Just like Ye Feng, everyone initially thought the news was false and someone had brought it out as a joke.

But when Bayern held a press conference to officially announce the news, everyone was really shocked.

Isn't this a bit nonsense?

What was a life-and-death fight a few days ago has now become a family, leaving them no time to brake or change their attitude.

Unlike Grande, Guardiola is already considered the top young coach in football.

The six crowns he led Barcelona to win are his real achievements, and the three consecutive La Liga titles are also a manifestation of his dominance in leading the team.

Most importantly, his pass-and-control football philosophy can almost be said to have set a trend.

Although his name is not as famous as Mourinho, he is definitely the hottest young coach in world football.

After Guardiola left Barcelona, ​​there were many scandals. Today it was said that he signed with Manchester City, tomorrow it was said that he signed with Paris, and the day after tomorrow it was said that Barcelona's top management resolved the conflict and returned to Barcelona.

But no one expected that in the blink of an eye, Guardiola would come to Bayern.

This is too fantasy!

Indeed, Guardiola resigned and Bayern still lacked a head coach. It seemed like they hit it off.

But the problem is, Guardiola and Bayern don't get along!

As the representative of the German team, Bayern has always been known for its tenacity, emphasizing tactical discipline, and at the same time paying attention to big openings and closings. After Ye Feng returned, he added quick counterattacks after pressing in the frontcourt, and the tactical system has long been mature.

Guardiola is the leader in passing and controlling tactics. In his tactical philosophy, passing and controlling is everything.

This is obviously the opposite.

Moreover, Barcelona, ​​coached by Guardiola, just lost to Bayern in the Champions League final. Guardiola shouldn't fall into the arms of Bayern in a blink of an eye, right?

So no one thought at all in the direction of Guardiola coaching Bayern.

But who would have thought that this completely impossible thing would actually happen.

Ye Feng felt as if he had heard a fantasy, and he couldn't accept it.

I have a very bad feeling. I don’t know why, but Ye Feng feels that he and Guardiola won’t get along.

Regardless of personal relationships, from a tactical perspective, Ye Feng does not feel that Guardiola will rely on him.

First of all, Guardiola is an absolute supporter of passing and controlling tactics. It is impossible for him to change his tactical philosophy when he arrives at Bayern, right?

Therefore, the highest probability is that Bayern will play pass control in the future.

In this way, my position is a bit awkward.

how to say?

Yaya Toure is now the real leg of Manchester City and another super versatile midfielder in the Premier League after Gerrard and Lampard. Even in terms of age, many people think that he is already the best player in world football after Ye Feng. The second most versatile midfielder.

But such a super versatile midfielder that all clubs covet was actually put on the bench by Guardiola during his time at Barcelona.

Obviously between Yaya Toure and Busquets, Guardiola chose Busquets and gave up Yaya Toure.

This is a tactical decision!

Ye Feng actually didn't think there was anything wrong with Guardiola's choice at that time.

For Guardiola, the choice of a defensive midfielder does not depend on whether he can pass the ball, whether he can score goals, or whether he can push the ball into the 30-meter area of ​​the opponent's half. When going forward, what he wants to look at is the player's sense of position, which provides the most powerful guarantee for the defense.

Although Yaya Toure has a stronger impact, Busquets can provide better defensive rigidity, and he completely beats Yaya Toure in terms of tacit understanding of passing and receiving and the quality of the ball.

In other words, it's not that Yaya Toure is not strong, but that Guardiola's tactical system does not require Yaya Toure to be that strong.

That's why Yaya Toure later left Barcelona and joined Manchester City, where he became a real asset to the team instead of just staying in Barcelona and sitting on the bench.

So now comes the problem!

What role will Ye Feng, who has a similar style to Yaya Toure, play in Guardiola's tactical system?

Ye Feng pessimistically believed that he might be used as an engineer.

This is not alarmist at all!
