winning hand

"Why do you ask that?"

"Because your business is too big. On the one hand, it is the reform of the team. On the other hand, it is the replacement of players. I took a closer look at the players you introduced. Most of them are from the 84-87 stage. I think

You should have a plan, but it will be difficult for us to achieve results next season, and you have made such a big move, which makes it even more difficult to achieve results. So I want to ask you, what kind of results are you preparing for?

"

"Next season, or long-term?"

"Better tell me everything."

"For next season, the best goal is the top four. The score for the Premier League championship is about 85 points. This is very difficult for Tottenham, especially since we have to reform, it is even more difficult. Basically there is no

Any possibility of success. Therefore, my idea is to score 70 points and compete with Arsenal for the fourth position. This is the goal for next season."

"It will be difficult for us to grab fourth place, right?"

"Yes, it's not easy, but it's not particularly difficult. If you score 70 points, it's probably done.

Winning 10 draws and losing 8 is enough. Even if we lose all the top four teams in the Premier League and play inconsistently in the league, we still have a chance to do this. Moreover, we will not play against Manchester United or Liverpool this season.

The competition with Chelsea will reduce a lot of pressure. In addition, we can fight on a single line. If we do not suffer major injuries and perform better in the two games against Arsenal at the same time, we still have a chance.

It's huge. Even if the Arsenal team doesn't take into account its habitual collapse problem, they at least have to play on two lines. Their points in the past few seasons have always been in the early 70s. According to what I said

In terms of signings, their personnel is not much thicker than ours. If there are injuries in the second half of the season, their personnel will definitely be worse than ours. If we compete with them for fourth place, they are better than us because they have rich experience in competing for fourth place."

"Why do you always think about losing all against strong teams every time you calculate points... If you finish fourth, that's okay, especially if you can squeeze past Arsenal, the fans will be very happy. So what about the long term?

Do you have long-term plans?"

"In the long term, I said, let Tottenham become a giant."

"What I want is a concrete plan, not empty words."

"Then let me talk about the plan: the first step is to win a Premier League championship within three years. Among the top four in the Premier League, Liverpool cannot keep up financially, Chelsea's players are about to start to age, and Manchester United's

On the other hand, it is estimated that Ferguson will have to undergo another generation change, while Arsenal's situation is slightly worse every year. Coupled with the recent tax reform discussed in England, the Premier League will inevitably have a period of decline within three years.

Because the problem of upgrading is inevitable - we can take advantage of the situation and win our first championship. You said that my people are all in the 84-87 stage, because I only prepared for three years.

If they win the championship three years later, they will all be 24-( years old, which is exactly in their prime. Other teams are changing generations, and we are in our prime, so this is our opportunity."

Li Bin's plan refers to memory and the current situation of the Premier League. Although the Premier League is now in its heyday, there must be a trough after the peak. With the tax reform, the more stars there are now, the heavier the burden will be in the future.

The wealthy clubs have all carried a heavy burden, and they will definitely give it up. At that time, it will be the time for Tottenham to take advantage of the situation and establish their power.

Therefore, most of his players were players born in 1987 or earlier, instead of choosing to use young talents born in 1989 or even after 1990. Three years later, the 1989 class was only around 21 or 22 years old. At that time, their combat effectiveness

There are still some shortcomings, not enough to play a big role.

It does not meet the needs of Tottenham's development. It is an issue that cannot be ignored when the players are brought together in their peak period in order to rise. Those who are older will be old by then, and Tottenham will also face the problem of generational replacement.

, if you are younger and cannot support it, you will be in big trouble.

When it comes to rising, no step can be missed.

"How are you sure it was us who took advantage of the situation and not Manchester City?"

"I still have experience in beating Mancini..." Li Bin smiled, "I won't tease Mancini anymore. To put it simply, Manchester City is richer than us and is a big competitor that should not be underestimated. However,

This does not mean that they are definitely better than us. Within three years, with me here, they will not be able to compete with us - in the first year, they

There is no European war, and we can’t buy good players even if we have money. This is the same for us, but at least I can bring in Yaya Toure and Cavani based on face. Although our foundation is weak, we are better than Manchester City. If we can really grab them

If we are in the top four, then we will have a Champions League spot in the second year, which will have an attractive advantage over Manchester City and can suppress Manchester City.

For a moment, we can enter a virtuous cycle, but they can't. Even if they can't enter the top four, they can't, and we have nothing to fear. Although they have money, they still can't buy top players the next year, and on Taobao

, I think I have an advantage over the local tycoons. In the third year, I think they are the ones who are with us.

When we reached the semi-finals, but at that time, it was already time for us to win the championship - both in terms of thickness and personnel, we were stronger. In the final analysis, if our foundation is slightly thicker than theirs, we can enter a virtuous cycle

, within three years, it will be difficult for them to compete with us. But after three years, they will be in big trouble..."

Teams with money are always difficult to fight against. After all, if you have money, you will have players. This is an unchanging truth. Heritage is a vague thing. Li Bin does not want to talk about Manchester City's lack of heritage.

That's nonsense. If Manchester City doesn't rise after three years, it will be too unworthy of its reputation as a rich man.

However, no matter how rich you are, you must follow objective laws. Even if you have money, it is very rare for a team to introduce those ambitious teams. Without two or three years of accumulation, Manchester City cannot immediately let everyone

Everyone is attracted by it: In my memory, Kaka rejected their 100 million offer, wasn't it because he couldn't trust them? Compared with them, Li Bin has Yaya Toure and Cavani, who can buy good players, which is enough for them.

Manchester City is helpless.

No matter how rich Manchester City is, they will have to play Taobao with Tottenham honestly within three years. In this regard, Li Bin is not afraid of Mancini.

"In three years, do you have a plan?"

"Yes. After three years, our players have matured, and my goal is to win a Champions League championship. Of course, this is a goal, and it does not have to be completed. Regardless of whether it can be completed, I think Ferguson is about to retire. He

After retirement, there will be no scary people in the entire Premier League. The goal is to win three consecutive league championships. Since the establishment of the Premier League, only Manchester United has completed three consecutive league championships. If we can win three consecutive league championships,

So after Ferguson retires, we will be the new overlord of the Premier League. If we had won the Champions League before, then at this time, we have basically established our own dominance in the Premier League. Even the Football Association has to let us three

points, when that time comes, it will be difficult for Manchester City and other teams to compete with us. We can imitate the path of dominance that Ferguson has taken again - this is the second step."

"But the path Ferguson took was very dangerous, and you may not be able to win three consecutive championships."

"We definitely have to fight for it. Whose position of dominance has not been snatched away?" Li Bin replied, "In those days, we can add some more good players. When the time comes to add more manpower, the ones who will be added will be those from 1989. In 1989

For players at this stage, most of the outstanding youth training centers are in Spain and Germany.

The economic conditions of these two countries are not very good. Even if the middle and lower-level teams have stars, we can buy them with money. As long as we have established a sufficient reputation before, then it is not difficult to introduce these players.

It’s not difficult. With them, we can definitely accomplish the feat of winning three consecutive championships.”

The players in 1989 are very interesting. Many of them were kicked out after being given up by the home team. For example, Li Bin knew that Royce, who was given up by Dortmund, was in Red and White Allen, and he knew that Alba, who was given up by Barcelona, ​​was in Valencia.

, also know that Sturridge is about to be given up by Manchester City, Hummels

He was given up by Bayern, Ziller was about to be given up by Manchester United, and Tasim Liang was soon given up by Milan - these players were all given up and then came back through their efforts in the lower leagues. They were bought early.

, on the contrary, it makes them stop working hard and unable to play, so it is better to let them go for a while.

Li Bin still knows that many talents can be used by players at this stage in 1989, and the reason why he is not in a hurry is because these people are still too young now. It will be difficult for them to compete with Tottenham when they are under 10 years old.

The players in the Spurs plan are fighting for form and position, so there is no need to rush to make a move.

Now I have some spare money. The net investment of 30 million per year is enough to buy them even if I can't buy big stars. In this case, there is no need to hoard talents too early, which will instead

The team is screwed.

But in the future, when he needs people, it would be great if he could introduce them from time to time. With this wave of people, he can achieve good results. After Ferguson retires, even the Premier League can remember Ancelo.

Famous coaches such as Thierry and Mourinho have been invited. With four to five years of experience, Li Bin is not afraid of anyone.

"After three consecutive championships, the team has been updated. You pay more attention to youth training than me. You also know that in the 93-95 generation, talents from France and Brazil have risen. France and Brazil are traditional player exporting countries. Players

Many of them are cheap. If their youth training is good, it will benefit the whole world. With them, we can complete the second-generation team. Similarly, the highest goal is to win three consecutive league championships and a Champions League - this is

The third step. After three steps, this team will be a giant."

Player-exporting countries like France and Brazil will not sink for a long time. Football is part of their income, and they are better at cultivating players than anyone else. If Tottenham can establish a good circulation system by then, then these players

, which is the basis for the next wave of rise.

Moreover, Li Bin also kept a careful eye here: If Tottenham is still good by that time, he will continue to stay. If not, the players in 93-95 will be his dependence after choosing a new team.

Li Bin told Esposito all his goals. He knew that it might be difficult for him to succeed in doing these things by himself, but this was the most ideal situation. His plan had to be based on Esposito.

People know.

"Don't worry, Lorenzo, in terms of big plans, I have arrangements. I have already made strategic arrangements. Just follow me step by step. There will be nothing wrong. We can always rely on our own strength."

Use your hands to capture a man with a bright future!"
