Chapter 466 South Korea wants to warm up

? Because of the European Championships, the season preparation time of each club has been greatly shortened, but this is only for giant clubs or strong teams with many international players.

However, even though Notts County is the new king of the Premier League, there are not many players who have played with the national team in the European Championships. Only Carvalho and Deco of Portugal and Robben of the Netherlands are considered to have played the game. There are more, so the pre-season preparations are still sufficient.

In terms of the selection of the warm-up match, the invitational match, which was planned to be held as a long-term competition system during the preparations last season, did not take shape this time because of time, and Notts County had no idea of ​​going abroad for training, so they simply invited a few English clubs to participate in the competition. Warm-up match.

However, as the new king of England, Notts County does not go to others, but there are still many people who come to Notts County to warm up.

In the end, Notts County chose Inter Milan and Lyon as their warm-up opponents, but the only requirement was that they need to play in England.

However, just when David had finalized the warm-up opponent, the Notts County Club suddenly received an invitation letter from the Korean national team for a warm-up match. As long as Notts County can play a warm-up match with the Korean national team, the Korean side will pay to Notts County will pay $400w to appear, and it will also help Notts County contact Korean companies to become its sponsors.

In all honesty, such conditions are really unambiguous, and even higher than the market price of the appearance fee of the giants, and it is possible to expand new sponsors. If it were normal, such a warm-up match would have to be won. .

But apart from Jun Zhixian, David doesn't have even the slightest affection for South Korea, and he lacks interest when he hears the word Korea.

The most important thing is that the arrogant stick actually wants Notts County to play this warm-up match in South Korea at the critical moment of pre-season preparations. This alone is not something David can endure!

It is true that David has always hoped that the Notts County Club can rely on the club’s own operating ability to achieve a balance of payments, and the appearance fee given by the Korean side also seems to be rich, but in any case, everything is for the competition. Not to mention $400,000 in preparation for the game in Notts County.

Of course, South Korea's request is actually reasonable. In order to prepare for the World Cup qualifiers, invite a strong team to warm up and let the team compete with the world's top clubs. It would be better if they win. It has become a world-class player, and it can further restore the image of Korean football in the world football world. As for the 4 million dollar appearance fee, they are willing to pay, and through business expansion and sponsorship, they can probably earn this money back.

David pondered for a while, and promised to go to South Korea to play the warm-up match is definitely impossible, even if the appearance fee is not required, it cannot delay the team's preparations, but now the Korean stick is actively asking for abuse, such an opportunity does not come every year. of,

David has long wanted to clean up these arrogant little sticks.

So David asked his beautiful secretary to send a fax back to the Korean Football Association. The meaning above is very simple. It is no problem to play the warm-up match. However, because the season is about to start, Notts County may not be able to complete the trip to Korea. It is best to go to Korea. The national team can come to England and Notts County for a warm-up match, and Notts County may not even ask for an appearance fee.

The Korean Football Association sees that there is still a good thing. If you don’t want to pay for appearances, then the Korean national team can go to England. Even without some domestic industry promotion, you can still make a lot of money through sponsors, and the team also After completing the purpose of warm-up, don't hurry to set off, or you will be waiting for Notts County to go back on it!

As a result, Notts County's warm-up match during the preparation period added a game with the South Korean national team.

According to gossip, after finalizing the warm-up match with the South Korean national team, there were often horrifying laughter in David's office.

Soon, Notts County ushered in its first warm-up opponent, Belgian club Be Weilun, the first satellite club that David invested in.

Last season, Bei Weilun's club performed well, winning the runner-up in the Bundesliga and qualifying for the Champions League play-offs. However, David is not optimistic about Bei Weilun's ability to pass the play-offs. At that time, there were not so many blatant insiders. As the top game in European football, he didn't want too many underdogs from small countries to enter the Champions League. Therefore, Bei Weilun will never receive special care in the draw, and it is the most critical. The thing is, in this summer, Be Weilun lost their midfield core.

Yaya Toure has performed very well in Bei Weilun's two seasons, and his strong performance on both ends of offense and defense has made him the coveted target of many giant clubs.

Although David would like to bring this future top B2B midfielder to Notts County, he will not get too many chances in Notts County at present. Instead of letting Yaya Toure waste his talent on the bench, he will also Not as good as defense, how could Notts County hoard all the stars in the world.

After some fierce competition, Barcelona, ​​who urgently needed to strengthen the midfield, brought Yaya Toure to Camp Nou at the price of euros. If they did not get Deco as they did in history, then buying a Yaya Toure can be considered as compensation. , even if the current Yaya Toure is far from reaching his peak, and there is not much comparison with Deco, but at least in the next few years, the team will not need to worry about the position of the midfielder.

David did not expect Bei Weilun to become a regular player in the Champions League. For him, the interests of Notts County are the most important, as long as Bei Weilun can provide Notts County's youth players with a good training environment. That's it.

It would be hilarious if Bey Weilun actually made it to the Champions League and was in the same group as Notts County.

Even if David only owns no more than 50% of the equity, presumably UEFA will investigate!

In Notts County's first warm-up game of the new season, Notts County, who started in the first half, easily suppressed Bei Weilun, but after the Notts County rotation played in the second half, the performance was a bit different. Horrible.

The backcourt players are okay to say that although they are also young, they have been rotated in Notts County for one season, and their performance is remarkable.

But the performance of the midfield and frontcourt was a disaster. Whether it was Ozil or Messi, on a field full of strong men, they were like elementary school students. Even if they had the ability to fight physically in the youth team, they were still rejected in the professional arena. The aggression on the Internet was so frightening that he didn't dare to make any moves later.

Seeing this scene, Loew knew very well that even if the technical ability was achieved, I am afraid that the psychological ability would still take a long time to adapt. Notts County still has a long way to go if it wants to continue to be brilliant! (To be continued.)
