I brush achievements in football

After the silence at the press conference, reporters were quick to mount their assault.

"Aside from the fact that his name sounds like Jesus, I really don't see how this young man named Kiya can be the savior of Southampton. His only property is the newly established St. Mary's Football Group and nothing else. Although the St. Mary Football Group's finances are very healthy, it is still doubtful whether it can support the operation of a professional club."

"Southampton's economy is not good. So far, they still owe Norwich Bank a loan of up to 5000 million pounds. If Southampton is still in the Premier League, there will be no problem with the income from Premier League broadcast fees, but now It is in League One! It will take at least two years for Southampton to make up for their lack of income through operations."

"Kiya is already the chairman of Southampton, but it is still a whimsical thing for this 25-year-old young man to want to take the helm of a professional club. If it is for the good of Southampton, then he should be hired. More experienced managers will manage the club, and they will only be responsible for paying for it.”

The voices of the media seemed to make sense, but when Ji Ya saw it, he just curled his lips—why?I paid for the club and let someone else manage it?Then am I a fool...

And Ji Ya doesn't feel that he can't manage the club well.

Because Southampton is a mature club, Mark Frye is in charge of various things in the current club, and Dave Jones is in charge of finances. Time-tested and system-identified, trustworthy people...

This is also the preferential treatment of the system-as part of the big gift package, the managers of the two clubs and the youth training director Prost all acquiesced that they are loyal to the club and loyal to him as the chairman.

Of course, this kind of loyalty will naturally decrease over time. Only when Ji Ya manages the club well, makes their work happy and earns a lot of money, can this kind of loyalty be maintained.

But at least at this stage, Ji Ya doesn't have to worry about someone stabbing him in the back.

The loyalty problem of the club's management has been solved for him by the system, but the players may not have much confidence.

Veteran captain and goalkeeper Kelvin Davis was forced to participate in the trial training of West Ham United before. After all, if Southampton failed to find a next home, the team would be disbanded!

Fortunately, Ji Ya appeared, and although he was not in the Southampton youth training, Davis, who has been loyal to the team since joining in 06, did not say a word of nonsense, and immediately chose to renew his contract with the club.

It's not that he has confidence in Kiya. At the age of 33, he just wants to play for Southampton before retiring.

The power of role models is endless. After Davis renewed his contract, two other veterans, central defender Chris Perry and midfielder Paul Norton, also announced that they would stay at Southampton, and even announced that they would cut their salaries to achieve In line with the standards of the League One - you must know that at their age, it can be said that one year of playing is one year less...

Driven by the veterans, the young players also chose to stay behind. It's not that they have nowhere to go, but the attraction of Southampton is still there.

Lallana, who has gradually emerged in the British Championship in the past two seasons, also announced that he will stay and renew his contract with the club for three years. After the news came out, the Southampton fans cheered thunderously. After Gareth Bale, Stern John and other stars, Lallana is now a representative of Southampton's youth training.

He can renew his contract with the club, which also represents the recognition of the local youth training players to the club's new owner!

Changing to another club, maybe it’s not a big deal, but Southampton has always had a tradition of youth training players being the masters of the house, and the recognition of the youth training forces is extremely important!

The respected veterans have recognized it, and the representatives of the youth training have also recognized it, and the hearts of the club's first team have stabilized.

Of course, not everyone will choose to stay. After all, there are many famous clubs that have been relegated to the lower leagues, but few can get up.

The youth of the players is limited, and wasting time in the lower leagues is not something everyone can afford.

Last season's main midfielder, 23-year-old local midfielder Andrew Suleman, was poached by Wolves, the champion of the British Championship last season, worth 250 million pounds.

Last season's main striker, the same 23-year-old local center David? McGoldrick, moved to his hometown team Nottingham Forest, worth 150 million pounds.

The departure of these two people made Southampton's strength drop a lot. After all, Suleman scored seven goals in 43 games last season and was the player with the most goals in midfield. Lallana was just helping him. And McGoldrick scored twelve goals in 44 games, the most among strikers.

Moreover, these two people are playing in their prime. Southampton has no shortage of veterans and young players, but the departure of this Mesozoic generation will cause a great loss.

Ji Ya didn't care about that.

"When players leave, players will come," Ji Ya said to Frye.

Frye nodded. He knew the current situation of the club. After the capital injection of St. Mary Football Group, although the club's cash was not much, it still had several million. In addition, the departure of these two players brought 400 million to the club. With an income of [-] pounds, Southampton's cash flow is the most abundant in recent years.

For League One clubs, nearly [-] million in cash is already exaggerated enough!

And Southampton's reputation allows them to take advantage of signings.

If the signings are effective, it can even bring Southampton's strength to a higher level.

The only thing that worries Frye is that there is actually a circle in the transfer of players. Newcomers always have to pay tuition fees when they come in. The transfer of England's lower leagues is also a circle. As a newcomer, Ji Ya can come quickly Will a convincing transfer stabilize the minds of the team and fans?

Frye is now worried that Ji Ya foolishly took the money to buy someone, and then was tricked into going bankrupt...

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Kiya patted his chest and said to Frye.

He's not bragging.

Under Frye's worried eyes, Kiya drifted away.

Three days later, Southampton held a press conference and announced the signing of a 27-year-old local center, Ricky Lambert!
