The work efficiency of the Manchester City Club was quite fast. Marwood finished the conversation with Wan Sheng. That night, Kevin Tagore, who was still in Newcastle, received a call from the Manchester City Club. Chairman Mr. Waddell asked to see Kevin Tagore. It is best to see Wansheng directly. He wants to talk in person about the specifics of the Manchester City coach who invited Wansheng.
In fact, Wan Sheng was still a little surprised that Manchester City demanded himself. Before he traversed into this world, Manchester City was already a world strong team, but they only started to rise in 2008 after they were fully acquired by foreign capital. In 2005.
Three years left!
Even if he does n’t know much about Manchester City at this time, he must know that this team ’s situation is not good. They just returned to the Super League the year before. The club has some foreign debt and the economic situation is not good. Coach Keegan has some conflicts with some of the team's players and even the club's top management. Coupled with the team's poor performance in the top league, they can only barely relegate. Manchester City's situation can be imagined.
He did not expect Waddell to invite himself.
But think about the contradiction between Keegan and Manchester City in the media. In fact, there is no surprise. Manchester City is sure to change the head coach. Then it is natural for them to consider their own contract renewal with Derbyshire.
In the end, Wan Sheng decided to go to Manchester himself.
May 14 is the final round of the Premier League. The opponent of Derbyshire is Portsmouth. This game is like a chicken to both sides, so the game at Pride Stadium is more like a warm-up In the game, Derbyshire defeated Portsmouth 2: 1. Won the final round of the league.
But no one cares about this, because the outcome of the game will not affect anything.
After the game, Wan Sheng announced the dissolution of the team, and he drove to Manchester with Kevin Tagore.
The town of Greater Derby is about two hundred kilometers from Manchester, not far away. It takes about two hours to drive. When the two arrived in Manchester, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, but before they came, they had already arranged a time with the staff of Manchester City, so they just arrived in front of the Manchester Club. Someone was already there.
The Manchester City Club is located in the heart of Manchester, close to the commercial avenue, and is surrounded by Manchester ’s most prosperous area.
Entering the Manchester City Club, you will see a green area surrounded by floors, which can be found upon closer inspection. It used to be a regular football field, but due to planning area and other reasons, half of the field was occupied by surrounding buildings.
This is the Manchester City Club.
If you do n’t know, you ca n’t imagine that it will be a football club, because there is not even a regular football field, but in fact, Manchester City ’s first team, including the reserve team, youth team and u-16 below. They are all training in the bases in the suburbs, but the core club is only the staff of the commercial department.
The chairman's office is in a room on the edge of the main building, when the staff walked in with the two of them. Manchester City Chairman Waddell is already waiting there.
Waddell was in his fifties, a little short, slightly blessed, but his eyes were bright, and he looked like a smart guy.
Malwood was also sitting on the sofa.
Seeing Wansheng walk in, Wadel greeted him. Marlwood also stood up and politely introduced each other to shake hands.
Wald is the chairman of the Manchester City club. He is one of the club's major shareholders and he is also a partner of the club's chief shareholder Martin. In 1998, Wald began working for the Manchester City Club and became the club ’s chairman two years ago.
When Wald took over the club's chairmanship, the Manchester City club just rushed back to the top league. Kegan's team has not achieved any praiseworthy results since these two seasons, and even now has to prepare to break up with Manchester City Therefore, it can be said that as the chairman of the Manchester City club, Wald has not made any achievements worth mentioning. Even many Manchester City fans think that the chairman of Wald is almost the same as or not because his work is completely fruitless.
Wald was naturally very dissatisfied with this situation.
He hopes that he can make some achievements in the position of chairman. Even if he ca n’t lead the club to glory, he ca n’t fall behind in the Premier League. At least not like this season, the team actually has a relegation crisis. Be wary, so Keegan, who leads the team with poor performance, can only prepare to leave, and he is also ready to bring a new coach to the team.
Finding a new manager who thinks you can guarantee the team's performance, and if you have the ability to fight for a better result, this is Wald's temporary goal.
He took a fancy to Wan Sheng.
Wan Sheng ’s leading performance is undoubtedly very dazzling. Derbyshire became the Premier League champion and attracted almost all the attention of England. Wald naturally also learned a little about Derbyshire. In his view, this Derbyshire is now There is no doubt that it is much better than Manchester City, but even so, there are still some gaps with Manchester United, Chelsea and other strong teams. This young Chinese led such a team to win the Premier League championship, which is obviously very capable.
So for another team, Manchester City, led by this young Chinese with ‘less power’, will certainly not be too bad, at least you do n’t have to worry about relegation, maybe the team can still compete for European tournament qualifications.
Wald thinks so.
After understanding each other, he directly talked about his thoughts, "... I believe that your arrival will make Manchester City stable. Our goal next season is to strive for European tournament places, I I think Manchester City has a chance, so the club will also prepare a fund to strengthen its strength ... "
"Your contract is completely different. I hope you can work longer in Manchester City. Although I am the club chairman, I also know football very well. A coach can work for a team for a long time. It ’s better to fabricate, maybe two or three years later, our strength will be greatly improved. I believe this, your success in Derbyshire has proved a lot ... "
"So the club will consider giving you a long-term contract for more than four years. Martin also recognizes this, and I talked to him. So you do n’t have to worry about salary treatment at all ..."
Martin mentioned by Waddell is the largest shareholder of the Manchester City Club. Although he is not the chairman of the club, his impact on the Manchester City club is not bad at all. If both Martin and Waddell agree to give Wansheng a big contract, it is equal to All the way through. There is no problem with contract negotiations.
Waddell kept saying that he was actually expressing his sincerity.
He just wanted to express a meaning to Wansheng-I, and the entire Manchester City club, hope you can come to coach, for this we are willing to provide a big contract. Willing to provide a long-term contract, and will give you a lot of time to build the team, even if there is no results in one or two years.
This is what Waddell wants to express.
It must be said that this is definitely very tempting for the average football coach.
Football coaches and professional players are different, it is not easy to sign a long contract.
The long-term contract guarantees that outstanding players will remain on the team. Even if the players do not perform well, the club can still sell him. But coaches are different. Coaches have almost no "worth", and the nature of their work is similar to that of some companies. They are the leaders of a professional team. If the coach leads the team poorly, the club will definitely consider changing the coach instead of ‘staying on the team and selling it’.
If you want to change coaches, it naturally involves contract issues, and long-term contract itself is a guarantee. If the general agreement is broken, it will compensate all the remaining time salary.
The job of the football coach is very unstable, and the results of leading the team for a period of time are not good. It is enough for a head coach to be fired, so long appointments are naturally very attractive.
A football coach takes over a team. Surely it takes time to adapt and transform the team, so Vardel also promised that “it does n’t matter if he does n’t make a difference in one or two years.” This is absolute trust. That's it.
These two conditions are superimposed together, and the "big contract" that Manchester City Club can almost guarantee will be tempting to put on any football coach.
The same goes for Wansheng.
However, he was very sensible and did not immediately agree, and did not say whether Wadel could guarantee what he said, more importantly, he was more capable, and his requirements were different from other coaches.
Just as Waddell finished, he looked at Wan Sheng with Malwood and wanted to hear his answer. Winning finally spoke, "Mr. Waddell, thank you for your trust in me, but I want to emphasize one point. .... "
Wan Sheng said seriously, "As long as I choose to come to Manchester City Club, no matter whether it is the first season, the second season, the third season, my goal will be only one, that is the championship!"
Waddell froze for a while, and he even felt that he had heard it wrong.
champion?
The goal of coming to Manchester City in the first season is the championship?
What is this young Chinese thinking? ?
Waddell feels that his mind is a bit out of step ~ www.novelhall.com ~ He always believes that he is still young ... at least not into old age, but why is his thinking unable to keep up with the routine?
According to normal logic, this young Chinese should not say something like 'will definitely work hard', 'fight for better results' after thanking for trust, but just jump to' my goal can only be a champion 'Go on?
Are you really old?
Wadel froze for a long time before finally recovering. He and Malwood looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes, only to make sure that they had heard correctly, turned to look at Wansheng seriously, and said, "Mr. Wansheng ,I do not quite understand you?"
"I think what I said is very clear!"
Wan Sheng said seriously, "If I choose to come to the Manchester City club, then my goal can only be the championship, not like what you said," It doesn't matter if you don't have a result in one or two seasons ", or" fight for relegation ", so I need to know more about the specific situation of Manchester City ... "(to be continued). Easy. Watch. Small. Say.
