Star Coach

"Thanks to the rehabilitation center, after the Christmas schedule, our players are still in good health. In our winter transfer window, there are no players that must be introduced." Jiangshan smiled and announced this year's plan in front of a group of senior officials.

"In 2011, our profit reached 50 million pounds, exceeding the expected target. This is a huge achievement. Thank you for everyone's hard work." The summer transfer window cost less, saving a lot of money.

Last year's league and Europa League broadcast fee revenue was almost 100 million pounds, ranking high among Premier League teams. Even Chelsea does not have such high broadcast fee revenue.

Jiangshan immediately announced a dividend arrangement, and the top management was beaming. In just two or three years, the team has achieved profitability. The next step is to start the construction of a new stadium as long as the debt of 300 million pounds is paid off.

"In terms of debt, we have reduced the debt of 300 million pounds to 270 million yuan. This year's goal is to reduce it to less than 200 million pounds. I think it is not difficult to achieve this goal."

In the team’s plan, the player transfer revenue in the summer transfer window will exceed 100 million pounds. Yes, the net profit will be 100 million pounds. Except for Bell and Suarez, no one is worth such a high price. Jiangshan intends to at least sell One of them.

Since the beginning of the season, Jiangshan has secretly arranged to hype the player's worth. During the transfer evaluation, Suarez's worth has reached as high as 60 million pounds, which is similar to Royce. Bale's price is even higher, almost £65 million.

Lewandowski is also worth 50 million pounds, and several players in the frontcourt are worth more than 50 million pounds. Thanks to the media, several wealthy teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern have long been eyeing West Ham.

"There is no player that cannot be sold, as long as the price is right." Jiang Shan nodded, "Mr. Woodward, you will have to work hard again this summer."

Woodward received a lot of dividends, was eating well and was in a good mood. "It is my bounden duty to serve the team. Don't worry, there will be no shortage of our players without a reasonable price."

"Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United in the Premier League are constantly asking about the price of our players. Do we respond to them?"

"I will definitely respond, but I personally don't agree with players transferring to teams in their home leagues. This is simply capitalizing on the enemy! Of course, if they exceed the market value by more than 30 million pounds, it is understandable to capitalize on the enemy. "Jiang Shan smiled, "When other teams pursue improvement, we always have to give them a chance, right?"

When it comes to looking at players, Jiangshan is not targeting anyone. Several young people in the team are all top-notch players. With the addition of young players, West Ham will not have to worry about top players in the next five years.

"Many fans are reporting that they cannot buy the team's season tickets, or even ordinary tickets, and ask us when we will expand the stadium." Woodward was very excited, "So I suggest that we can first ask the Football Association Apply to give us Olympic players in advance after this year’s Olympic Games to solve the problem of fans watching the game.”

The Olympic Stadium has 60,000 seats, which is almost twice as large as Upton Park Stadium. If it is won in advance, the team can increase its revenue by tens of millions.

"Right now Tottenham are still competing with us and they also want to rent the Olympic Stadium as their home ground." Woodward added.

Jiang Shan thought for a while and asked the team's senior officials one by one before expressing his opinion.

"My opinion is the same as Wan Ling's." Jiang Shan said word by word, "We need our own stadium. Upton Park Stadium must be rebuilt. Although it is a bit harder now, the future benefits will be very considerable, and it can even become London Stadium." tourist attractions. As you can see, the sales of team tourism and peripheral products have tripled in the past two years and will continue to expand in the future.”

"My suggestion is that at the end of the season, we first carry out small-scale renovations according to future plans, and add about 10,000 seats without dismantling the new parts in the future. This expenditure will only cost about 20 million pounds. It’s an early investment in building a new stadium.”

The plan for the new stadium is actually almost complete, but it still needs to be submitted for approval by the London authorities. Coupled with factors such as funding and debt restrictions, it is impossible to invest too quickly. Jiangshan's approach is to solve the urgent need.

"Are we going to give up the Olympic Stadium to Tottenham? In the future, when we renovate the stadium, it will take at least three years to locate our home court somewhere else. Without taking control of the Olympic Stadium first, it will be difficult to find a better place. Tottenham He will definitely make things difficult for us. "Woodward is still holding a grudge against Levi for poaching West Ham!

Jiang Shan laughed, "The Olympic Stadium is given to Tottenham. When we renovate the stadium, we can also rent Wembley Stadium. Wouldn't it be better?"

There is no winter break in the Premier League. After the team layout was completed, Jiang Shan continued to lead the team in games and still lagged behind Manchester United in the league. This year, Manchester United took some medicine and performed particularly vigorously, firmly controlling the initiative in the league.

The league has passed 20 rounds, and Manchester United has not shown any signs of fatigue. It seems that they will have to wait until the Champions League round of 16 begins before their performance declines. What West Ham has to do at this stage is to hold on tightly to the points gap and not continue to expand.

In the semi-finals of the League Cup, West Ham faced Crystal Palace. Both rounds were quite easy. They successfully advanced to the League Cup final and will compete with Liverpool for the championship.

West Ham United won the League Cup last season, and now the chance to defend the title is just around the corner, so Jiang Shan will certainly not give up. "If we win the League Cup and then the league, this year's goal will be accomplished."

Two championships in one season, one league championship and one League Cup championship, are already the dream results of many teams. Of course, Jiang Shan also hopes to make achievements in the Champions League, at least to reach the semi-finals.

There are many accidental factors in the two-round knockout of the Champions League, and he can't fully grasp it. It's possible for anyone to win or lose.

After entering January, the game entered the fast lane, and the FA Cup game officially started. West Ham United's strategy is similar, and the FA Cup is also dominated by young players.

Of course, West Ham United's young players are also strong. Harry Kane, who was taken back in the winter transfer window, plus Kante, Mahrez and others, may compete for the top four in the league even in the Premier League.

In the Champions League round of 16, against Zenit St. Petersburg, West Ham United will play away first and then at home.

In the away game, Jiangshan deployed the team mainly for defense, to maintain a draw and win, and then return to the home court to decide the outcome.

In the away game, the combination of Kante and Ballack performed well, filtering out most of the home team's attacks, and cooperated well with the back line to shut out the opponent. Moreover, the team won the away game with Bale's goal, and the score of 1:0 was enough for West Ham to take the lead in the two-round match.

Back at home, West Ham showed its fangs, and Jiangshan deployed a strong offensive lineup. Amid the shouts of nearly 40,000 fans at the scene, the players showed their passion and almost pressed the players of Zenit St. Petersburg to the ground.
