Godfather Of Champions

Real Madrid lost to Nottingham Forest. This result is not considered a "unpopular". It is normal for the two teams to beat each other. After all, where is the strength of the Forest team.

On the second night, Dunn took the whole team to watch the match between AC Milan and Lokomotiv Moscow to observe their opponents in the final. Although it was only an invitational tournament, Dunn decided to take it seriously.

The popularity of this game is guaranteed because of the host's participation. The stands are full of people, most of them are Lokomotiv Moscow fans from Russia, and AC Milan has a handful of fans.

Although there are few people, they are generally optimistic that it will not be a problem for their team to beat Lokomotiv Moscow. But this is the case. Compared with the other three teams, the host is not strong.

But it must be eliminated?

Football is round. Who knows the result before the end of the game?

At eighty-five minutes, Dunn stood up in the stands and stretched: "Go back and rest, guys. There is nothing to watch in this game."

At this time, the score on the big screen is: "2:0".

The home team is in front and the away team is behind.

Yes, AC Milan is behind.

Ancelotti did not send all their main players, and the Lokomotiv Moscow team is on the strongest lineup. One side wants to train and the other wants honor, and the result can be imagined.

In the end, AC Milan lost to Lokomotiv Moscow. A week later, Lokomotiv Moscow will compete with Nottingham Forest for the trophy of the Railway Cup, while AC Milan will play a game with Real Madrid to determine third place.

This result disappointed many people. Originally, they wanted to see the Champions League final re-stage in Moscow, but who thought AC Milan would lose in the first round.

A week later, Nottingham Forest won the opponent 3-1 at Lokomotiv Moscow and won the first championship trophy of the season.

Even though it was only an invitational champion, it can also boost morale. After just winning the Champions League, the forest team players at the award ceremony were still very excited.

Beckham assisted his teammate twice in the final to score, and he was selected as the best player in the final.

For David Beckham, he doesn't have to worry about integrating into the team. After these two games, he is completely "his own."

And Beckham's performance in the Invitational also blocked some people's mouths.

Before, there were voices who thought that Beckham could no longer achieve any success, and his career has entered the final stage early due to frequent business activities. Real Madrid chose to drive him away is extremely correct, because his championship in the last season is just a return. It took only four years to win a championship in a league like Spain. After going to the faster-paced and fiercer Premier League, Beckham's constantly injured body, what he can accomplish.

Beckham has been a controversial player since his debut. He himself has a deep understanding of this, so no matter what the outside world says about him, he just trains every day and then shows his level in the game.

Dunn didn't buy him to help sell the jersey. He valued Beckham's right cross and the precise long pass in the midfield. These are technical features that complement the Forest team's counterattack. Albertini is gone. The Forest team lacks a man with accurate long passing ability. Van der Vaart's short pass is very creative, but the long pass is far from it. In this regard, Beckham's ability is unique in the world. When he was at Real Madrid, he used countless long passes from the backcourt over 50 meters to accurately deliver the football to his teammates.

In the past, both sides of the Forest team relied on speed to win, but once the opponent compresses the defensive space, the Forest team's wing attack will be blocked. Now with Beckham who is good at long passes, the Forest team has more diversified flank offensive routines, making opponents undefeable.

In addition, thanks to the four years in Real Madrid, Dunn can also make Beckham a cameo and launch an attack directly with a long pass, which is much faster than rushing up with the ball.

Nottingham Forest, who won the first championship of the new season, also ended their training in Russia and set off to fly back to the United Kingdom to prepare for the upcoming Premier League.

They had no way to participate in the Charity Shield. The Premier League champions let Manchester United take it. The FA Cup final was a meeting between Manchester United and Chelsea. The two sides reached a 0:0 tie within 120 minutes. In the end, they won a penalty kick and Chelsea won. . Therefore, the new season's Charity Shield will repeat the FA Cup final of last season-Manchester United VS Chelsea.

There was nothing about the Forest team in this game, they were thorough spectators. Their first major championship of the new season was on August 31, when they competed with UEFA Cup champion Liverpool for the European Super Cup.

This opponent made Dunn uninterested, clearly the European Super Cup, because the opponent is a league team, it feels like the "England Super Cup", there is no new feeling at all.

He prefers to play against Seville.

But it is a pity that the best club team selected by FIFA last year wanted to defend the title, but was defeated by Liverpool in the final and lost the championship.

There is no alternative. If you don't win a decent champion, Benitez may be dismissed. In addition to helping the team win the Champions League magically in the first season of coming to Liverpool, Benitez has done nothing in recent years. Benitez was originally not good at playing leagues. With the sudden rise of the Forest team, they lost their qualification to enter the Champions League for two consecutive years, which made club directors and fans very dissatisfied.

If he loses the UEFA Cup again, Benitez will have to take the blame and resign.

Fortunately, this champion saved his coaching career in Liverpool.

Liverpool recruited for the new season, vowing to return to the ranks of the championship.

The signing of the new Premier League TV broadcast contract brought more money to the Premier League teams. According to the new broadcast contract, the Premier League champion team can get a bonus of 50 million pounds, and even the bottom team can get 30 million pounds-catching up with the Premier League championship bonus of previous seasons. Regardless of the level of the England national team, the Premier League is still the most profitable league in the world.

In this context, except for the Nottingham Forest, which is to build a new stadium, other clubs have only two options: either spend money or be left behind.

No one would choose the latter.

Liverpool bought Ryan Babel (Ryan_Babel) for £11.5 million, Benayoun (Yossi_PBenayoun) from West Ham for £5 million, and Waller was introduced from Leverkusen free transfer Ning (Andriy_Voronin), their biggest deal is to buy Torres from Atletico Madrid for 21.5 million pounds.

Just looking at the money spent on these transfers can show Liverpool's ambitions. Of course, Dunn has reason to believe that after spending so much money, if Liverpool still cannot break into the Champions League next season, then he must have only one way to go.

Life is always full of various surprises.

The Liverpool people will not forget the humiliation that Nottingham Forest gave them at the end of last season-kicking them to fifth in the league and losing their Champions League qualification for two consecutive years.

Now comes the opportunity for revenge.

Benitez's team can take away the first substantial championship of the new season in Nottingham Forest at the Louis II Stadium in Monaco. Isn't Dunn always saying "he is the head coach pursuing the championship"? Then stealing his championship trophy is the best revenge for him.

Even the English Premier League hasn't started yet, and Liverpool's media are beginning to speculate on the game on the last day of August. For many Merseyside people, they have never wanted to win a game like that-defeating Nottingham Forest.

According to the schedule for the new season, the first round of competition will be fully rolled out on August 11. In the last warm-up match before the beginning of the season, Manchester United and Chelsea tied again in the Charity Shield, relying on penalty kicks to decide the victory.

This time it was not Mourinho who had the last laugh, but Ferguson.

The two teams have faced each other in 30 games in the history of the Premier League. Among them, Manchester United has eight left, 13 draws and nine losses. Mourinho has made a lot of contributions here. After he came to Chelsea, he allowed the team to perform well in the Premier League's strong teams except Liverpool.

The loss of the Charity Shield to Manchester United is just a small part of the two people's grievances.

Mourinho congratulated Manchester United on winning the Charity Shield, because that would mean that they would lose the league title and Chelsea would win the championship again.

Ferguson ridiculed that Mourinho was still talking about the old almanac, and that the curse of the charity shield is a thing of the past. And even if Manchester United can not win the league championship, Chelsea will not win the league championship.

The much-anticipated war of words between the two sides was staged before the league started, and the best advertising for the new season of the Premier League.

This is a brand new Premier League season, a new way of selling TV broadcasting rights, new TV broadcasting contracts, new players, new teams, and...new champions.

On August 11, Nottingham Forest will go to Liverpool, but their opponent is not Liverpool, who is "extremely jealous when the enemies meet", but Liverpool's city rival Everton.

Moyes and Dunn have been friends for many years, and the smell of gunpowder in this game will not be too strong. The special place is that this is the first league game played by former Forest player Arteta for Everton, and he ran into his old club Nottingham Forest.

At the same time, this game was selected by Sky TV as the live round of the game. There are two reasons. One is because this is the first game of the new season for the European champions; the other is because Beckham is back. This is the first game for Beckham to return to the Premier League after four years. Attention, live broadcast of this game can also bring more advertising revenue to Sky TV.

When Beckham left Manchester United, economic experts once said that this is not only a loss for Manchester United club, but also a loss for the Premier League. There was even an exaggerated statement at the time: Beckham's departure meant the decline of the most profitable Premier League, and the world's first league was about to become La Liga.

Before this season, the Premier League company re-auctioned the television broadcasting rights of the Premier League for the next three years. The broadcasting rights were divided into six parts, each of which contained 23 games, four of which were sold to Sky TV. The price is as high as 1.310 billion pounds! The broadcast rights of all matches of the Premier League in the next five years will be shared by Sky TV and Ireland’s Sai Tanner, with a total value of up to 1.7 billion pounds! And this money is only the domestic broadcast fee, and does not include the broadcast rights sold by the league to foreign TV broadcasters-TV channels in more than two hundred countries will pay the Premier League for the next three years of the Premier League. US$1.23 billion, or about 617 million pounds, this figure makes the NBA feel ashamed. Their annual overseas broadcast revenue is only a mere 130 million US dollars, more than 50 million pounds. The new season's Premier League champions club's prize money is only.

Here, it cannot be said that it has nothing to do with Beckham's return. Beckham's return to the Premier League has given many large companies the confidence to continue investing in the Premier League, and it is also conducive to the promotion of the Premier League to the world. I believe that in the next five years, due to previous performance, the broadcast rights of the Premier League will be offered at a higher price.

The man was brought back by Tony Dunn, who benefited from this big cake, but was part of the food for Twenty Clubs.

You know, when Murdoch bought the rights to broadcast the Premier League five-year game, it used 191 million pounds. Five years later, it was 670 million pounds in 1997. In 2004, the Serie A economic bubble burst. After the bankruptcy of the German Kirsch Media Group, the broadcasting rights of the Premier League were still sold for a sky-high price of £1.02 billion. The Premier League is still the most profitable league in the world.

Allen and Evan decided to start a new stadium construction plan this season, not only because the Forest team won the Champions League again after a historic 27 years, but also because the new TV contract was signed before this season. Twenty clubs again have large sums of money at their disposal. Almost all of the 1.7 billion pounds in the league has been given to all Premier League teams. With this funding, all clubs can calmly plan and build their own future, including Nottingham Forest.

Dunn and Allen may have a lot of small frictions in their daily work. After all, they each perform their duties and seek their own politics. But when it came to signing in for Beckham, Allen was happily waiting to hug Dunn and give him a mad kiss.

Because the TV broadcast fee of the Premier League is not like the NFL (American Football League), the 32 teams are evenly distributed. It's the number of games a team is broadcast during the season and the final ranking. A team with a good performance will get more live broadcast opportunities and will receive more bonuses.

As European champions, they will get more TV broadcast opportunities. On this basis, because there are world-class stars and popular idols like Beckham in the team, their broadcast times will increase. Especially considering the large audience in Asia and America.

In the new season, Sky TV’s choice to broadcast the Nottingham Forest game is a clear proof-the charm of business is unstoppable.

The Nottingham Forest in the 2007-2008 season will become the star team that has attracted the attention of the World Cup. If they can get results that match this attention, then the goal that Evan has been looking forward to will be achieved ahead of schedule.
