Coming to Brussels, Aldridge still used his long-sleeved skills in dealing with the media. He sold it to the BBC.
Although it is impossible to say with absolute certainty in the formation of the European Elite League, when England, Germany, Italy, and Spain have unified their positions, at least this certainty is about 90%, so when he came to Brussels, he invited the BBC Do a live broadcast.
Other reporters, if there is a TV agency, naturally have no such preparation, and the BBC has received exclusive live news!
Aldridge settled on the throne, cleared his throat, and said loudly to the reporters here: "Gentlemen, here, I am proud to announce the establishment of the European Football Elite League on this day! The founding members of this league are:... …"
In addition to 16 out of 19 members of the original G14, kicked out 3 members of France, and the rest plus Chelsea, a total of 17 top European clubs became the founders of this league!
The reporter's head was buzzing!
Not long ago, Lyon’s Chairman Olas announced the dissolution of G14 as the G14 rotating chairman!
Just breathing, the new giant alliance was established!
Reporters also know that the price of the dissolution of G14 is the guarantee agreement provided by UEFA and FIFA, but...
That agreement was signed!
UEFA Secretary-General Taylor just confirmed this fact just now, which is by no means an oolong!
The only explanation is...
The reporters stared at Aldridge talking on the stage and talking about the purpose of the alliance's founding, and their eyes have changed.
Handsome!
Not kind!
Play Yin again!
Half a year ago, UEFA gave the authentic Champions League trophy to Millwall, you played UEFA once, and still did not participate in the European War!
Now, he has played a word game with UEFA again.
Yes, G14 is disbanded!
But you immediately set up another organization, changing soup without changing medicine!
It seems that UEFA played a word game with you at this time last year. One year later, you also played a word game with UEFA.
And, you guys took a big advantage!
The contract signed by FIFA and UEFA with the European club is signed and effective!
Take a security fund of 200 million euros!
That's right, Aldridge played UEFA again, but the last time he won the Champions League authentic trophy, he didn't care about it, it was originally Millwall!
Take away what belongs to me and give it to me, do I have to thank you?
But the knife he stabbed today is indeed untrue in terms of means!
But this notorious Aldrich came to the back, and other giants can only say that they can open their eyes in front of the interests, and get more money, no one can get up.
At this moment, the representatives of these giants were very happy.
Haha, if the big-name players are injured in the national team, FIFA and UEFA will compensate them. If they are injured in the European War, the league will also compensate. This risk has been reduced a lot.
Aldridge subsequently announced that in the 09-10 season, they will host the first European Super League, referred to as the Europa League!
Full of surprise!
The dream that belonged to the giants was once out of reach, but now, will it be realized? !
After Aldrich's announcement, the sponsors and TV broadcasters present also expressed their expectation and support for this event!
In the question-and-answer session, Aldridge was asked whether the establishment of the UEFA Super League was related to retaliation for UEFA.
Aldrich shook his head and said: "We have been working hard to create the best football for the fans. When the outside world is tired of Millwall's strength in the Champions League, I think the problem is not that Millwall is too strong, but the Champions League. The level has become lower and the quality of the so-called Champions League is lost! Of course, you can say that the Turkish champion is the champion, and the Ukrainian league champion is also the champion. However, the competitiveness of these champions, in the Premier League, in Serie A, in La Liga, can Are you in the top four in the league? What do we want is the top-level contest! Now that's okay, if we play Europa League, will Millwall have the courage to send a full bench to play in the group stage?"
In answer to the decisive factors that emerged in this tournament, Aldridge directly criticized the egalitarian policy now implemented by UEFA.
"The UEFA president said that Andorra fans have the right to see Ronaldinho at home. I don't deny what he said makes sense. It seems that this is the society we are in, and everyone should have the power to claim it! However, the Champions League has already had a huge impact on football matches around the world, and the target group is fans from all over the world! We should meet the expectations of most fans around the world. Do North American fans want to wait to see Millwall and Andorra in front of TV? Team game? Do Asian fans want to watch such a game that even the Premier League's strong and weak dialogue is not? What about African fans? Indeed, we meet Andorra fans, but let more fans around the world feel disappointed! So we have to break free of such constraints, stop in the wrong direction, and get back on track to satisfy the wishes of most fans around the world! Someone will definitely say that I am selfish, that I have hurt Andorra, or something like Andorra Fans in this country, sorry, I just told the truth, I also have the consciousness that I will not be liked by everyone, and some people will hate me, hate our league, but we will give most fans the games they want, The splendid European football will push the level of European football to a higher level!"
There are still many mainstream media reporters nodding to give their approval.
In fact, Platini’s egalitarian policy is nothing more than pulling votes!
Don't say anything that makes most people enjoy football.
That's farting!
Andorra, teams from these leagues in Malta have enjoyed, how many fans around the world feel tortured?
Originally interested in depends on the new season's Champions League.
As a result, when I look at the draw results, the qualifying teams of each group have almost no suspense. In the 6 group matches, it may be just one or two strong dialogues to look at. Other games, regardless of him, the basic results are well understood, nothing more than just What is the specific score? Even though there will definitely be upsets, fans can't endure the boring 10 games. Looking forward to the possible one or two upsets?
It’s different now. The Europa League B-Class may be much less suspense than the previous Champions League, but it cannot be ruled out that the tension and stimulation of the group chaos and the suspense can occur, while the A-Class is an absolute tragedy. !
It is conceivable that four giants and one group, two promotion and two eliminations, 6 games, maybe from the first game to the last game is a battle of life and death!
The game is less, but the expected value of the game will be greatly improved, so that the waiting fans will never think it is a waste of time and enthusiasm!
The specific plan of the Europa League has not been announced today, but some of the architectural ideas Aldridge talked about, such as their intention to invite gold referee Corina to join and become the leader of the refereeing committee.
...
Switzerland, Nyon, UEFA headquarters.
There was silence in the administrative building.
Less than ten minutes ago, everyone, everyone was cheering the collapse of G14!
Celebrating UEFA's victory in the ten-year struggle!
Now, everyone, everyone is staring at the live broadcast of BBC Sports on the TV screen.
Listen to the speeches of Aldridge and other rich representatives.
They recognized the sponsor's representative, the TV broadcast giant's representative.
Those who are still UEFA's partners have publicly declared that they will no longer renew their contract with UEFA after the current contract ends, and TEAM Group also said it will not sponsor the UEFA Champions League.
Go back!
betray!
abandon!
Without Millwall, the Champions League is only subject to some controversy, and the degree of attention has declined, but if there are no 17 clubs, more than ten of the rich clubs can be called the appearance of the Champions League.
The Champions League?
What is left?
Platini looked dull in his office, his eyes red!
He originally wanted to see how the outside world praised UEFA for achieving the unification of European football and became a ruler without external threats!
Now, UEFA?
It is almost possible to declare control of the club and survive in name only!
The establishment of the Premier League is to get rid of the FA and sacrifice other low-level leagues in England!
The establishment of the Europa League now has the same effect as the Premier League.
European giants get rid of UEFA and become independent portals!
What is sacrificed will also be the interests of the teams under European football giants!
This happens to be completely opposite to the egalitarian policy promoted by UEFA, and extremely opposite!
European giants pursue elitism!
After the official start of the Europa League, these European giants will become an unshakable presence in their home country!
Midstream and downstream teams want to change the traditional pattern, relying on accumulated experience. This accumulation process may be three years, maybe five years. If you are lucky, maybe two years of team construction and transformation will have a skyrocketing effect. However, after the establishment of the Europa League, the economic benefits obtained by the giants from the Europa League will further monopolize the global football talent resources. Under the giants, even the attractiveness of the first-line teams will rapidly decrease, and excellent stars will sharpen their heads and devote themselves to Giants, why? Because there is no Champions League! Without that first-tier club, you may be lucky enough to go to the Champions League. If you want to appear on the top stage, you can only join the giants!
Moreover, the gap between rich and poor in economic income will also determine that the treatment of the rich will be beyond the reach of first-line clubs.
This gap may only be solved in the future by the gold lords of the Abu Dhabi consortium, which are rich in rival countries. Even the wealth of this level of Abu may not be able to burn this money. After all, the benefits obtained by the giants from the Europa League are too huge Now!
Platini dashed out of the office gazed madly and snarled wildly: "Call me the European Football Associations! Suppress them!"
