Chapter 210 Breaking News
On the afternoon of May 5th, the 13 teams in the Premier League started their final league matches at the same time, and ended the 2011-2012 season at about the same time.
The final relegation battle was very exciting. Bolton and Queens Park Rangers led most of the half, but were equalized by their opponents in the second half.
Aston Villa was lucky to go ashore in the end, but Bolton fell into the British Championship due to the disadvantage of goal difference, failing to grasp their own destiny.
As for the Queens Park Rangers, the invincible team in the British Championship last season, this season they stumbled and succeeded in relegation in the last round of the league.
Norwich, who is also newly promoted, is ranked No.11, and the future can be expected.
Not to mention Sheffield United, not only reached the Champions League, but also won the League Cup this season, becoming a veritable super dark horse!
The "Miracle of the Blade" resounded throughout the English football world, and Li Mo has confirmed the position of the new generation of players.
Among the new generation of stars this season, none can be compared with him. The stats of 35 Premier League goals + [-] league assists are too buggy. Let alone new stars, all the Premier League stars who have been famous for many years have been strongly pressed by him.
However, apart from Li Mo's record-breaking incident, which caused a major football earthquake, the most eye-catching event in the finale of the Premier League had to be the championship battle between the Manchester City duo.
Manchester United defeated Sunderland 3-0 in the last round, which directly shattered Manchester City's championship dream. Manchester United also successfully defended the league title. It seems that it is likely to establish a dynasty for three consecutive league titles.
Facing the challenge of Tottenham, Arsenal also succeeded in a 3-2 shopping at West Bromwich Albion in the last round, securing fourth place in the league.
In the unfavorable situation at the beginning of this season, Arsenal can finally reach the Champions League. Van Persie can be said to be the biggest contributor.
It's a pity that even if Van Persie exploded, scoring [-] goals and [-] assists in a single season, he still had to be inferior to Li Mo and only won the Premier League silver boot.
Lu Xiaopang was even worse. He was in such a good state at the beginning of the season, but he couldn't maintain it. In the end, he only ranked third in the Premier League scorer list with 29 goals.
It can only be said that the competition for this year's Premier League scorer list is too fierce.
Last year he was able to win the Premier League Golden Boot with 21 goals. This year Rooney scored 29 goals but can only rank third in the scorer list. It is really a trick of fate.
Lu Xiaopang's dream of the Golden Boot was shattered again, and the possibility of getting the Golden Boot in the future is getting lower and lower.
After all, as long as Li Mo and Van Persie don't transfer to the Premier League, they will have a goal battle next season. Lu Xiaopang's scoring ability is not as good as these two. Fans don't think that Rooney next season will be the opponent of these two.
But there is one thing to say. Although Rooney said that his state has fluctuated a lot this season, he is still very carry in the league. Not only is he scoring goals in front of him, but Manchester United's mended midfielder also has to rely on Rooney to retreat from time to time to hold the ball. organize.
As the thickest thigh of Manchester United after Ronaldo left, Rooney can be said to have given everything for the Red Devils. This league championship is also the biggest compliment to him this season.
And with Rooney's performance this season, coupled with Manchester United's championship blessing, the possibility of him winning the honor of the Premier League player of the season is quite high.
But just like what the Italian commentator said after Li Mo broke the record, according to Li Mo's personal performance this season, if he can't get the best player in the Premier League this season, then the FA is committing a crime!
Bringing the newly promoted Sheffield United to the third place in the Premier League and winning a League Cup, Li Mo's performance is considered to be outstanding. It will depend on the official evaluation. If there is no accident, the best player is basically It was born between Rooney and Li Mo.
In addition to the Premier League's official player of the season, maybe Rooney and Li Mo will pay more attention to another award.
That is the best player in the Premier League PFA.
This is the English Footballer voted by the players union. In terms of fairness and gold content, PFA's English Footballer is undoubtedly a more convincing award.
Of course, in addition to the official and the players union, the media will naturally get involved.
After the end of each season, the Journalists Association will also select the best player of the season, which is the so-called FWA best player.
These three awards are also known as the "Three MVPs" of the Premier League every season.
In terms of gold content, PFA is the highest, followed by FWA, and the last is the best player selected by the Premier League.
Because the subject of the selectors is different, after the end of the season every year, there will often be scenes where the best players selected by various institutions are different.
However, this year Li Mo has a great chance to win the "Three MVPs". As long as the Premier League officials don't mess around and finally choose to award him the best player, Li Mo can basically win all three MVPs in a single season.
After all, when the players union and the media judge the awards, they still pay more attention to the individual performance and ability of the players. Generally, they will not forcefully select players from the Premier League champions. Li Mo won these two MVPs based on his statistics and hard-fought performance this season. It's a certainty.
Mendes' team also started the publicity machine after the Premier League finale.
This kind of time is a good time to build momentum for Li Mo. The ace team under Mendes will not miss it. Every time Li Mo wins a heavyweight individual award, it will become an important bargaining chip for them to negotiate commercial contracts in the future.
Last year, Li Mo persuaded Mendes to eat a big cake after getting an important personal award.
And now, it's time to harvest.
Li Mo didn't care about these things at the moment. According to his words, he was only responsible for playing well and winning prizes, and Mendes was in charge of making money.
Li Mo also explained to Mendes very clearly which brands he would not accept. He was more assured of Mendes' ability and integrity.
Li Mo doesn't care how to arrange the commercial activities in the summer, as long as he has enough time for special training.
Anyway, when the time comes to receive awards, shoot commercials, and do commercial promotions, Mendes will ask the team to make a schedule.
Now, Li Mo is still celebrating happily with his teammates, interacting with Sheffield United fans at the Bramall Lane Stadium.
What Maguire was worried about did not happen. The fans of Sheffield United were quite sensible and did not rush to the field to pick up the players' underpants. The players of Sheffield United walked around the field and sang the team song with the fans, celebrating this successful season.
However, although the pants were not taken off, the jersey, shorts, and even sneakers and socks could not be kept.
Li Mo even took out the dirty jersey he had replaced in the first half and gave it to a small fan in the front row.
Wearing sweatpants prepared in advance, walking on the turf shirtless and barefoot, Li Mo held the captain's armband and raised his hands, applauding and waving to the fans non-stop.
Wherever he went, there were wild cheers from the Sheffield United fans.
The Sheffield United team also thanked the home fans many times under the leadership of Li Mo. Almost half an hour after the game, the Sheffield United players reluctantly said goodbye to the fans.
"See you next season!"
Finally, he waved his arm vigorously, and Li Mo roared at the top of his voice, then turned around with a smile and walked towards the players' tunnel.
When the noisy sound gradually weakened and finally disappeared with the closing of the locker room door, Li Mo's heart also became a little empty.
Three months offseason.
The thought of not being able to enjoy the cheers of the fans at the Bramall Lane Stadium for more than three months made Li Mo feel very uncomfortable.
But the second-rate teammates quickly drove away the emptiness in Li Mo's heart.
"Welcome our big star! The strongest scorer in the Premier League!"
Following Medel's strange cry, four or five Sheffield United players rushed out from the corner of the dressing room with champagne in their hands, and sprayed wildly at Li Mo.
As if it was a signal, Maguire directly moved out several boxes of champagne, and Sheffield United's dressing room suddenly became a place of chaos.
After being attacked, Li Mo naturally refused to let it go. Laughing wildly, he grabbed a bottle of champagne with one hand, swayed wildly, and chased after Medel.
Speed and the members of the coaching staff who entered the locker room were not spared, and Speed was the focus of the players.
However, after a while of madness, there were still a lot of business to do, and the players let Speed go after having fun.
Later, the whole team has to go out and accept interviews with reporters.
After rinsing and putting on the sportswear prepared in advance, the Sheffield United players walked out of the dressing room one by one like dogs.
However, Li Mo and Maguire were intercepted halfway by the club's staff.
Facing the puzzled two, Speed didn't explain much, just smiled mysteriously, and then let the two and the staff go back to the club first.
Li Mo also met a compatriot at the press conference arranged by the club.
A handsome guy in his 40s from Huaguo.
Under the enthusiastic explanation of the opponent and the team's big boss McCabe, Li Mo and Maguire gradually understood the "big event" that will happen later.
Both Li Mo and Maguire were very shocked.
The old handsome guy from Huaguo is called Wang Mu, a character Li Mo has never heard of in his previous life, but starting tomorrow, he will be the team CEO of Sheffield United!
McCabe sold most of his shares, leaving only 5%. As the honorary chairman of the team, he will no longer participate in the management of the club in the future.
But the real new boss did not show up. Li Mo only knew that it was an investment from Huaguo. After today's press conference, Xie Feilian is about to enter a new era!
"Xiao Li, don't worry. The follow-up capital investment is sufficient. I have read your contract. Before the start of next season, we will re-adjust the team's salary structure. Don't worry about salary. Play well. The ball, the sincerity of the club, you'll see it soon."
Wang Mu's smile was very kind, and he took Li Mo and Maguire to talk for a long time. Li Mo and Maguire's first impression of the new team CEO was still very good.
Although Li Mo had a lot of doubts, but at the moment he was very smart and didn't ask any questions.
Since he and Maguire are called here, it shows that the team's new boss attaches great importance to them.
Li Mo doesn't care who the boss is, but he seems to be a local tycoon who is not short of money. He can make McCabe sell almost all the shares and help the new CEO take over the team with a smile. It seems that he spent a lot of money.
"The boss must have known about this, no wonder he smiled so weirdly at the time, he wasn't worried, I was worried about a P."
Li Mo suddenly remembered Speed's smile just now, and immediately felt relieved.
As the head coach of the team, Speed must have met Wang Mu in advance. With Speed's tough temper, if the new CEO doesn't suit him, he will definitely not be able to bear it.
But now it seems that Speed has been happy during this period, so there is only one possibility.
Speed endorses a new boss and a new CEO.
Among other things, Speed must have obtained the conditions he wanted in terms of signing funds and buying people in the summer. It seems that the new boss is also very satisfied with Speed's work, and did not rush It means joining the team.
Maguire obviously figured it out quickly, and exchanged glances with Li Mo, both of them relaxed.
If the new boss is really a rich man, it is really good news for Sheffield United.
Although the boss McCabe loves Sheffield United very much, the financial crisis has greatly shrunk his assets. Since 10, Sheffield United has basically made no big moves in the transfer market.
Professional clubs need reasonable and long-term planning, but they also need a lot of capital investment. To put it bluntly, if McCabe continues to take charge of Sheffield United, then winning a Premier League championship may be the end of this Sheffield United.
Because McCabe does not dare to disrupt the team's financial structure easily, it involves not only a few million funds, but tens of millions of funds if it is moved, so once the players ask for a salary increase, then Sheffield United will be in danger. Likely to choose to sell this player.
But if McCabe chooses to sell Sheffield United, everything will be different.
Local tyrants don’t care about money, they only care about results. The current Sheffield United just happens to be producing results. A salary of tens of millions is nothing in the eyes of local tyrants. As long as there is a champion, they are willing to invest, and Sheffield United can truly complete the transformation .
Not to mention that like Manchester City and Chelsea in the past, they spent hundreds of millions to form a super lineup. Even if they only spend [-] million pounds, it is enough for Speed to spend happily.
Moreover, there are only a few positions in Sheffield United that need to be strengthened. One hundred million pounds is not a small sum of money in 2012, and it is more than enough to buy two or three powerful stars.
While Li Mo was thinking about it, a large number of reporters began to pour into the scene. Li Mo and Maguire went to the back conference room to rest under the arrangement of the staff. When the press conference is over, Wang Mu will Talk to the two of them alone for a while.
This level of emphasis made both Maguire and Li Mo feel very useful.
At 5:13 on the evening of May 19th, the press conference held by the Sheffield United Club officially began. At the same time, an explosive news quickly spread in English football.
Sheffield United officially announced the change of ownership, and Wang Mu made an appearance!
A new era has begun!
