Chapter 24 I thought our relationship was broken

Arsenal won their first win of the season against Liverpool, which also made them full of confidence for this season.

After a relatively bad season, Wenger's retirement, team reorganization and other matters, many fans feel that Arsenal is finally back on track.

Of course, they are still far from complete, but Arsenal fans are still very optimistic about the future of the Gunners.

In the second round of the league, Arsenal challenged Leicester City away from home.

In the Community Shield, Leicester City lost to Arsenal and lost their first championship of the season. For this reason, they are eager to take revenge.

But Arsenal didn't make it so easy for them.

The whole game was quite depressing, and Leicester City had no way to deal with Arsenal's defense.

Although Arsenal had several good opportunities, they failed to seize them. In the end, Arsenal drew with Leicester City in the away game. The two sides failed to score any goals in the 90 minutes of the game.

In the post-match interview, Mourinho said: "The most important thing is not conceding a goal. This means that our defensive system is gradually moving towards perfection. As for the goal issue, I believe the Gunners can make good adjustments." ”

Mourinho's defensive supremacy, he prefers 0:0 to a 1:1 draw.

No matter how the game develops, as long as the team does not concede a goal, it means that the lower limit is stable.

As for how to raise the ceiling, this is a problem they need to adjust.

A recent UEFA announcement.

'The Premier League club Manchester City was fined 70 million euros for violating the Financial Fair Play Act. At the same time, the team was required to reduce salary levels and limit the maximum amount of a single transaction. In addition, the number of registrations for the Champions League this season has been reduced from 25 to 21! ’

This is the second time that Manchester City has been punished for violating the Financial Fair Play Act. The first time was in 2014. It was only two years before they were punished again. Many media are breaking the news. UEFA has severely warned Manchester City and certain players. Clubs limit transaction amounts.

Meanwhile, the clubs that have invested heavily in this season are facing investigations.

Arsenal is also among them. After all, Arsenal spent nearly 200 million in transfer funds this season.

During this period, vehicles with UEFA logos entered the training base from time to time to cooperate with the club in the investigation.

But no problem was found in the investigation. Arsenal's own transfer funds came from buying and selling players.

The reason why there is such a large investment this season is largely due to the sale of a large number of players and the issue of restructuring.

As for Arsenal's boss, he has rarely been seen at the club after falling short in his battle with David Dein.

Not to mention putting money into it.

All of Arsenal's funding sources were clean, but there were some issues investigated.

For example, Arsenal has invested too much this season and is now in a state of financial loss.

Arsenal's finances are in the red and it's a novel story.

After all, all clubs can lose money, but Arsenal is making money.

Arsenal must be one of the most profitable clubs in football.

But if Arsenal wants to achieve results now, it needs players of sufficient strength. Players need to be bought with money, which also causes Arsenal to be unable to make ends meet.

Coupled with last season's poor performance, Wenger's retirement and other factors, many sponsors and capital are in a wait-and-see mode and have not invested much in the club.

Arsenal even had no choice but to apply for a loan from the bank, but it seems that it has not been approved yet.

For a club, money is a big problem!

Although teams in financial crisis will always appear in football, Arsenal is now on a dangerous line. This is a problem that urgently needs to be solved.

Once it is not handled well, it is a trivial matter for internal conflicts to break out, and the team may sink from there.

For this reason David Dene boarded a plane to Moscow.

In a manor in Moscow, David Dein was led by the butler to a swimming pool.

Arsenal owner Usmanov was wearing a nightgown and sitting under an umbrella with a bottle of red wine on the table.

Seeing the arrival of David Dene, Usmanov said with a hint of sarcasm in his smile: "I never thought we would meet in this way!"

David Dein looked at the other party and smiled; "I think you should have received the news. You can say whatever you want. I'm here to ask for money!"

Usmanov was indeed a little surprised by such a grand request in the room.

"Why should I give you money?"

Usmanov shrugged; "It's good that I didn't ask the club for money."

In fact, it is commendable that Usmanov did not take a commission from the team like Kroenke did as a team owner, and injected funds many times while serving as chairman.

David Dein was silent for a moment, walked to the chair opposite Usmanov and sat down. He poured himself a glass of wine, took a shallow sip and said, "I admit you are a good boss. , but do you know what your problem is?"

Usmanov raised his eyebrows and said, "What problem can I have? I just want to make Arsenal a great club!"

"Yes! That's your problem, you're too anxious!" David Dein shook his head; "We all know that many teams are now using funds to expand investment in single transfers, which is also restricted by UEFA. But even without these restrictions, is this really a good thing for a club?”

"If you think about it carefully, those people are capitalists. They invest in the team out of novelty. When the game becomes more popular, they will invest without limit and continue to destroy the economic and financial problems within the club. The club is also forced to continue to Expand the scale and salary situation, and when they are tired and tired of playing, they slap their butts and leave, what about the club? "

David Dein looked at Usmanov and said: "You know what I mean!"

Usmanov narrowed his eyes slightly. As a successful businessman, he knew exactly what the other party was talking about.

Once those capitals leave, the club will be unable to continue operating on a large scale and will be in a collapse situation without the support of large funds.

It would be fine if this was a single situation, but the current football world has been continuously eroded by capital.

Once these problems become a chain reaction, it will be the collapse of the football system.

"Your ideas, your methods and your so-called commercial operations are all destroying Arsenal's internal financial system, so for Arsenal, you are a destroyer. I am not rejecting you, but rejecting anyone. The man who destroyed Arsenal!"

David Dein took a long breath and said, "Last year, I ran for team chairman."

Usmanov's cheeks twitched slightly and he nodded: "I heard it, and you failed!"

David Dein failed to run for team president last year, leaving Usmanov as team president.

"But do you know why it failed?" David Dein asked.

Usmanov gloated; "Those directors repented?"

"No! They are very supportive of me taking this position, and they also want to kick Russian capital out of Arsenal!"

Hearing this, Usmanov's expression became extremely ugly and he snorted heavily.

"So what's the reason!"

David Dein; "Wenger and Kay came to me and asked me to give up running for club president, and said that they still support you as club president."

Usmanov was stunned.

Wenger and Kay support him?

why is that?

Usmanov was shocked; "I thought our relationship was broken!"

David Dein: "They may not think so, but Kai has said that he agrees with one of your points!"

"The captain, the head coach and so on"

Usmanov: "Chairman! Trinity!"

"Yes, that's it!"

Usmanov sighed; "They still remember this."

"Actually, they are not against you, but they are against anyone having too much power in the club." David Dein laughed; "So I gave up, and it's actually very good now, isn't it? Arsenal is full of people now. With vitality, we are heading towards the Champions League again. If you have time, you can come back and take a look. I think Arsenal miss you too!"

Usmanov was silent for a moment and said, "Are you playing the emotional card with me?"

David Dein: "I'm just stating the facts, and would you really give up on Arsenal? That's your love!"

snort! !

Usmanov turned his head and snorted heavily.
