Star Coach

Chapter 427 Left Back Selection

In the winter transfer window, West Ham made a decisive move. Although it was only a small amount of 10 million pounds, their goal was very clear, which was to strengthen the left back position.

Heynckes had already proposed that the left back position must be strengthened. Out of respect for the head coach, Jiangshan listed a list and asked Heynckes to tick it. Of course, Heynckes was not stupid. Jiangshan even knew which player was suitable better than him.

"As long as the team buys the player, I will use it."

"With your words, I will let Woodward do it." Jiangshan smiled. Of course, he would not be crazy enough to buy players like Marcelo and Abidal. Not being able to buy them is one aspect, and he may not be able to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League.

Ashley Cole is of course the most ideal left back candidate. He has been in good shape in recent years and still firmly occupies the position of England's starting left back. But poaching from Chelsea? West Ham does not have the money or the face. As for Evra, Manchester United will not let him go.

"Is Baines really enough?" Woodward was a little surprised. "He can't even get into the England national team. Can he really be used?"

"Of course, he is not as good as Ashley Cole, but his strength is definitely top in the Premier League. Even in Europe, he can be among the top 20 left-backs. Don't worry about the negotiation."

What Jiangshan is most worried about is whether the funds are sufficient. Baines joined Everton in 2007 and cost Everton a transfer fee of 6 million pounds. In recent years, Manchester United and Arsenal have contacted him, but nothing has happened.

It is not easy to convince Everton to let him go. Everton CEO Elston is definitely not easy to deal with. They also have ambitions to get into the top four. Similarly, Everton's current head coach Moyes is quite optimistic about Baines and is reluctant to let him go.

Transfer negotiations are just a matter of wrangling. Woodward finally convinced Everton that West Ham will loan Harry Kane to Everton for one season next season. With the secondary share of Baines' transfer, they are finally willing to let him go.

9.8 million pounds is not a high price, but the secondary transfer share is as high as 40%. If West Ham sells Baines for 10 million pounds, they will have to give Everton 4 million pounds, which is the invisible price.

Before the winter transfer window closed, the deal was finally reached.

Baines put on West Ham's jersey and became a member of the championship team. Baines didn't want to leave, but he received a call from Jiangshan, "If you have the opportunity to win the Champions League, not leaving Everton is irresponsible for your career."

"I believe that within 5 years, West Ham will win the European Champions League trophy. This is my promise." Jiangshan learned from Hengda and announced that he would win the Champions League within five years. He was bragging.

At the same time, Baines also knew that if he was at Everton and Ashley Cole was in good shape, he would never be selected for the England national team, but if he appeared in the European competition, his status would be different.

Having European competition experience is one of the criteria for many national team coaches to select players. Having played in the toughest games in Europe, such experience cannot be measured by money.

Baines seized the opportunity and became a member of West Ham's defense. Heynckes was particularly satisfied with the team's deal.

"I believe that in the second half of the season, we will be one of the best teams. I will qualify for the Champions League." He was full of confidence, "Our goal is to win the league, and I will definitely do it well."

On the defense line, West Ham has put together a quasi-England national team lineup of Baines, Cahill, Matthew Upson and Glen Johnson. Except for Glen Johnson who can often play in the national team, the others are substitutes among substitutes. Baines has not yet got time to play in the national team.

Although the England national team has repeatedly failed in major competitions, such a defense is already considered top-notch in the Premier League. Except for Manchester United and Chelsea, no one's defense is more solid than theirs.

The goalkeeper is the weakest link. Neither Green nor James Walker can withstand the pressure of major competitions and are not long-term candidates. But Jiangshan was well prepared and arranged De Gea as a chess piece in the first team.

De Gea has played in cup games most of the time this season and has played three games in the League Cup, but now he lacks physical confrontation and confidence in the face of collisions, and it is easy to lose the ball.

Heynckes knew that Jiangshan wanted to train De Gea, and also arranged physical training and goalkeeper training for De Gea. In addition, the team did not set a goal of winning the championship in the cup game, so even if they lost, it would not be a big deal.

Jiangshan walked into the office, and the documents on the table were gradually decreasing. After taking over the team for almost half a year, he had few documents to deal with, and major matters would be handed over to him for decision.

Woodward can usually maintain a good operating state, and this guy is very good at building relationships and finding sponsors. The team's income is growing significantly, and he has made great contributions.

If David Gill of Manchester United was not still there, Woodward would not have the opportunity to take over. It would not be easy to convince Manchester United to let him go! Now he has picked up a treasure. If this guy can improve his ability to buy and sell players, he will be one of the best CEOs in Europe.

Jiangshan looked through the club's various reports and signed easily. This is the feeling of the boss in his imagination. He only needs to be responsible for signing, and the rest will be left to professionals.

"Boss, as of the first quarter, our profit reached 3 million pounds. At the end of this season, we should be able to break even." Catherine sorted out the documents on the table and sent the recent news.

After half a year of adaptation, she became very capable and did a great job as a secretary.

Jiangshan was in a good mood. Seeing Catherine bending over to collect documents, she looked very charming. He knew that this girl did it on purpose and often seduced him like this, but he couldn't stand the seduction and got hard again unconsciously. "This girl has a really charming figure. She also said that her figure will be more charming after giving birth to a child. I believe it a little bit."

After giving birth to children, Cheryl and Samantha at home really have more explosive figures, which makes people want to see them.

Jiangshan walked forward, and Catherine smiled and twisted her hips, as if calling. Jiangshan pulled down his pants, then picked up the cloth strip under the skirt with his fingertips, and directly poked it in...

The two of them often did this in the office, and it was quite fun.

"Hiss..." Catherine gasped, "I didn't seduce you!"

"Nonsense, no seduction, no water? You must have done it on purpose, knowing that I am easily impulsive." Jiangshan continued to move, pressing Catherine on the table and attacking from behind.

The door of the office was locked tightly, and the sound insulation was good. Otherwise, with Catherine's crazy screams, even the spectators in the stadium not far away would probably hear it.
