Chapter 902 Difficult?(1/2)
Skudmore now fully understands what Master Huan means.
To put it simply, the Premier League is like a society, and a club is a family that forms a society.
Society is developing rapidly, and the cake is getting bigger and bigger. The income of every family is rising steadily, and it looks beautiful.
But what about it?
While social development is also developing, the cost of living is also developing rapidly. Housing prices are still unattainable, and prices remain high. The expensive cost of living is still making every family breathless.
Then, has it really changed?
Or is it just a product of capital speculation that looks beautiful but actually becomes a product of a whole egg?
In the Premier League, is the rising broadcast contracts that have led to the increase in players' salaries and transfer fees?
Or, the high salary and transfer fees of players put pressure on the club, and the latter is then transferred to broadcasters through the Premier League and then transferred to fans by broadcasters. This has always been a difficult question without answers.
If you really want to explore it, it will eventually turn into a verbal battle between the two sides about whether to lay eggs or eggs.
But one thing is quite obvious, that is, when the mid- and lower-level Premier League teams have higher purchasing power than the mid- and lower-level teams in other leagues, while the Premier League giants cannot compete for top players, such as Real Madrid and Barcelona, the gap in the internal strength of the Premier League teams has been shortened to a very small extent.
Under such circumstances, the giant teams cannot guarantee their position in China and must fight to the death for the top four of the league. How can they be distracted from playing in the European arena?
You know, the broadcast fee for a season of the Champions League is not as much as the broadcast fee for a season of the Premier League.
Of course, everyone knows the importance of the Champions League. It is undoubtedly the most important display platform for giant teams.
But now for Premier League teams, we must first ensure that the team can participate in the Champions League, or go further to ensure that the group can qualify, which can not only win both fame and fortune, but also compete with the top four in the Premier League.
Could it be that Arsenal is not playing such a calculation?
Is it true that the Gunners have been competing for the titles of the Four Crazy Demons in recent years?
As for those who say the Gunners are still in debt, they should really check out the nearly £200 million cash deposit in Arsenal's bank account and the rising ticket prices at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal’s problem is ultimately just one sentence, lacking motivation.
Since you can keep the top four in the league and keep such a sling lineup, you can make money while lying down, why bother to sign up a lot?
If it weren't for the strong rise of Manchester City, Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur in recent years, threatening Arsenal, would the Gunners hit stars such as Ozil and Higuain?
By the same token, Premier League teams always have the same attitude towards the Europa League as if they were useless.
The reason is also very simple. If I have free time to play such a game that can't make a lot of money, I might as well concentrate on winning one or two rankings in the domestic Premier League. The money I earn is more abundant than winning a championship, and whoever wants to play will play.
What? European War points? It’s my business!
For many years, this is the attitude of Premier League teams in the Europa League!
Therefore, when La Liga, Bundesliga, and even now Serie A are in full swing in the Europa League, the Premier League still holds hands and looks at the group of hanging silk with cold eyes, but doesn't know that they will fall into a big fall anytime and anywhere.
Richard Scudmore's concerns have been mentioned to Yang Huan before. If the Premier League loses its fourth Champions League place, the league will go crazy!
That kind of arms race where all teams are burning money in a crazy way will not only make the Premier League crazy, but also make the whole of Europe go crazy.
Because theoretically, Southampton, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are all ambitious to qualify for the Champions League. Once they change from four to three, the competition will be even more tragic and bloody.
Even if you are not careful, the entire league will collapse!
I guess this is why Richard Scudmore came to Southampton so worriedly.
The Premier League presidential summit is imminent, and as the CEO of the Premier League, he will definitely want to do something.
But for Yang Huan, the quota has been reduced, which is a good thing.
As long as Southampton maintains its current competitiveness and keeps the team's strength unchanged and the quota is reduced, England's big cake in the Champions League prize pool will lose one person to score, and they will get more.
With this income, I can further consolidate Southampton's position in the Premier League. Isn't that good?
So, sometimes, Yang Huan even wishes that the Serie A team will be more successful and more powerful.
At the same time, I hope that the Premier League team will not be more successful.
Why?
The same old saying is good for Southampton!
Why are Barcelona and Real Madrid awesome? Why are other La Liga teams only accepting the current way of distribution of interests?
Because the Spanish Super League is the banner of La Liga, without the existence of transcendent teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid, the influence of La Liga will inevitably be greatly reduced, and they may not even be able to make any profit now.
By the same token, why do Bundesliga teams tolerate Bayern Munich?
Because they need Bayern Munich's flag to compete in the European arena for them and increase the influence of the Bundesliga.
What about the Premier League?
It used to be Manchester United, but now?
Arsenal has become mediocre, Chelsea has become sluggish, and Manchester United is also injuring. Who else?
Manchester City?
Manchester City can't make any difference without finding a set suitable for playing in European and Premier League games.
And you have to know, what is the average age of Manchester City? How long can it last?
Why did Mubarak introduce De Bruyne, Sterling, Abu Bakar and Mangala?
Do you really think Manchester City is a stupid person who comes with a lot of money and a high price to sign up as a substitute?
Wrong, they are planning for the future and reserving talents!
After two or three years, if you look back, you will find that this group of players is too cheap!
When these teams have no intention or strength to raise the banner of the Premier League, Southampton has to stand up unswervingly.
But, I think so in my heart, but I can't say that.
Not only can't say it, but you have to shout a few words in the opposite direction.
"Richard, to be honest, our current situation is also dangerous!" Yang Huan sighed, looking very sad.
It's a bit like Jing Ke on the edge of Yishui, very tragic and tragic, but unrestrained.
But who is Richard Scudmore? How could he be fooled by Master Huan because of this?
“How to say it?”
"Belsa is leaving. You know how important he is to us. I have tried my best to keep him, but he is very determined and he left after the season. What he originally wanted to leave last summer was forced to stay by me."
Hearing this, Skudmore's face darkened and he screamed in a dark voice.
Bielsa's resignation will have a big or small impact on Southampton.
To put it bluntly, Manchester United after losing Ferguson is the lesson of Southampton.
Can Southampton get over the hurdle that Manchester United can't overcome?
"And, you know, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich's poachers all reached out again."
Speaking of this, Yang Huan sneered.
"Hazar, Sanchez, Suarez, Tony Cross, Di Maria, Matic, Varane, Danilo, David Alaba, Neuer... If they are really rich, they may be eager to hollow us out!"
Scudmore was not surprised by this, because the Saints players are indeed quite popular, so it is natural to be poached.
"Master Huan, this is not a good phenomenon!" Skudmore reminded.
Now the Premier League European battle is entirely supported by Southampton. If the Saints collapse, the Premier League will be over.
"I know, but what can I do?" Yang Huan spread his hands and shook his shoulders, feeling helpless.
"If we want to retain this group of players, we have to pay more, and the team has to bear higher operating costs, which is difficult for us to do!"
Difficult to deal with?
Richard Scudmore certainly doesn't believe it.
Southampton's finances are now the best in the Premier League, with higher incomes than Manchester United. Although players' salaries have grown rapidly in the past two years, overall, they have been well controlled and their finances are very healthy.
Especially this season, after moving into a new stadium, revenue is expected to hit a new high.
In this situation, Young Master Huan said it was difficult to deal with, who would believe it?
However, the current situation in the Premier League is indeed not optimistic, and the Saints do need to stand up. Therefore, Scudmore had to comfort him and say a lot of good words.
Who is Yang Huan?
How could he take it seriously if he talks but doesn’t really come?
Besides, he had no hope of digging out any real benefits from the Premier League from the very beginning.
To put it bluntly, Scudmore and the Premier League are just the butlers of twenty Premier League teams. What can they promise?
No matter what the attitude of the Premier League is, Yang Huan must do his best to make the Saints rise.
Of course, Scudmore should not expect to get any promises or even suggestions from Yang Huan.
Especially when it comes to the Premier League Chairman's Summit, Yang Huan never mentions what is about to happen.
This made Scudmore feel very depressed, but helpless.
After sending Skudmore into the car and watching him leave, Yang Huan smiled.
