Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son

The score was unexpected before the game.

Although Manchester City has been in the upper hand against Manchester United recently, no one expected such a big score difference.

Moreover, for Manchester United, this score will have the most serious consequences.

That is the goal difference.

Before this game, Chelsea led Manchester United by three points and one goal difference.

But if this game ends with this score, Manchester United's goal difference will be four behind Chelsea.

In the last round, even if Chelsea loses, Manchester United will need to make up for the goal difference to surpass Chelsea and come third.

This is undoubtedly more difficult for Manchester United.

So, they still hope to score another goal to leave a theoretical possibility for the next game.

But unfortunately, their efforts failed to get a goal in the end.

With the referee's whistle, Manchester City won a beautiful victory over Manchester United 4-1 at home!

And Manchester City also qualified for the Champions League with this victory!

At the press conference after the game, a Guardian reporter asked Van Gaal: "Mr. Van Gaal, although there is still one round of the league, you have already completed the season goal in advance. I want to ask, how many points can you give to the team's performance this season?"

Van Gaal looked at him, but suddenly seemed to think of something: "You are a reporter from the Guardian, right? Where is your colleague David Jones?"

The reporter looked strange: "He hasn't come out to attend a press conference for a long time."

Van Gaal showed a regretful expression: "At the beginning of the season, he spoke nonsense to me and belittled our Manchester City infinitely. Now that we have locked the top three in the league, I really want to ask him in person how many points he can give to our Manchester City this season."

The reporter smiled awkwardly and had to sit down awkwardly.

Van Gaal is certainly a vengeful person, how could he forget that David Jones had offended him!

Reporters from other newspapers certainly would not let go of this little episode, and they all recorded it, preparing to go back and process it artistically.

As you can imagine, our Mr. David Jones will be a little angry.

In the next and last round of the Premier League, Manchester City, which sent a full substitute lineup, defeated Everton, which had successfully retained its position, 2-1, and locked in the second place in the Premier League.

The only goal for Everton was scored by the blessed and healthy Lu Xiaopang.

If he does not consider returning to his roots in the future, it is estimated that this will also be his last game in Everton.

Manchester United, which is in urgent need of buying players, will definitely target him this summer.

Chelsea defeated Leeds United, which was determined to be relegated, 1-0 and achieved third place.

Although Manchester United also won, it still could not change the result that it could only rank fourth.

In the end, this season's Premier League came to an end.

Arsenal completed the feat of being undefeated in the season and easily won the Premier League championship.

Manchester City also emerged as a force that cannot be ignored in the Premier League.

At the season summary meeting, Yang Luo took to the podium: "Everyone, thank you for your hard work this year. We have also achieved very gratifying results. In order to express my gratitude to you, I decided to take out 10 million pounds as your bonus!"

As soon as this was said, the audience cheered.

Yang Luo smiled and pressed his finger: "This money is not only for the players, but also for everyone who has contributed to our club!"

Now, the members of the coaching staff couldn't help cheering.

After all, who doesn't love to get money?

Yang Luo smiled: "The distribution of this money will be the responsibility of Mr. Bernstein. Now you can find him!"

Bernstein on the side looked bitter, you little bastard is really bad...

The season is over, and the players and coaches who received the bonus can also go on vacation.

And Yang Luo and other uniform members will start to get busy again.

San Dezi found Yang Luo: "Boss, I'm here to report to you."

Yang Luo nodded: "How much money did we lose this season?"

San Dezi smiled awkwardly: "Without considering the transfer fee, this year... we lost 35 million pounds."

Yang Luo raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

San Dezi said: "The biggest expense this year is wages. Last year's total wages were about 15 million pounds, and this year it has reached 25 million pounds.

About pounds. Although the broadcast revenue increased by several million this year due to the significant leap in performance, the ticket revenue decreased by three million pounds this year due to the reduction in the number of seats in the stadium. And we also spent 10 million pounds to upgrade the training facilities, and 10 million pounds in bonuses..."

When saying the last sentence, Yang Luo clearly felt his teeth clenching.

Yang Luo quickly changed the subject: "Okay, I know all this. How are the results of your commercial development during this period?"

San Dezi smiled a little: "Due to our outstanding performance this season, we have received several new sponsorship contracts. The total amount of these contracts exceeds 10 million pounds per year."

Yang Luo smiled: "It seems that our existing sponsors also need to be updated."

San Dezi nodded: "I have been communicating with them."

Yang Luo praised: "Well done."

San Dezi continued: "I did a survey and found that the popularity of some of our players in the hearts of fans has soared sharply."

Yang Luo raised his eyebrows: "For example? ”

San Dezi smiled: "Of course it's Kaka and Ronaldo! Especially Kaka, his appearance has conquered many fans, and many young female fans have run to the training ground to cheer for Kaka."

Yang Luo was not surprised, after all, Kaka's appearance was a presence that he had to temporarily avoid.

So he said: "So, what are your plans?"

San Dezi said: "I want to open a flagship store that mainly sells player peripherals, and the target group is this group of fans."

Yang Luo supported his idea very much: "I support you. But have you chosen a store?"

San Dezi thought for a while: "I want to put the flagship store around the city stadium, so that it can form a linkage with the surrounding jersey and sneaker stores."

He paused, and then said: "But the ownership of the surrounding shops is in the hands of the Manchester City Government, and we have to pay a large amount of rent..."

San Dezi meant to ask Yang Luo to approve his rent, but Yang Luo obviously misunderstood.

He thought for a while: "Yes, it's a hassle to always rent a house. How about this, you go and talk to the Manchester City Government for me, and we can just buy the City Stadium!"

San Dezi was petrified on the spot.
