Chapter 589 Zero Seven Charity Fund
The first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage ended. Real Madrid's home game against Millwall became the hottest content in the first round of reports. what's the problem'.

Millwall still maintains the strength of last season, which is a point reported by the media, but they can beat Real Madrid [-]-[-] in the away game, which cannot be described simply as "strong". Two goals, even three goals are normal, but winning five is not normal, even against a small club in the Premier League, it is not easy to score so many goals.

The media interviews after the game broke the news, which is also for the content that the European media cares about.

The locker room problem exists in many teams, but such a serious locker room problem will definitely cast a shadow over Real Madrid's new season. The Spanish media continue to report, most of which criticize Robinho. But he is also full of disdain for Schuster. Facing such a powerful Millwall, Schuster also admitted that he was "careless" and "unexpected", which made people question his ability.

The media also didn't think that Schuster was able to adjust the conflict in the dressing room. Robinho publicly criticized him, explaining that most Real Madrid players lack respect for Schuster.

It is very dangerous for a coach without authority.

Last season, Capello coached, even in the face of huge external pressure, the Italian was still able to stabilize the locker room, and no player dared to stand up and express dissatisfaction.

Summarizing a series of questions about coaches, players, etc., what happened to Real Madrid?
Many Spanish media once again attributed the problem to the club chairman Calderon. Calderon is the No. 1 of Real Madrid. He must be responsible. When Florentino was the chairman, there were not so many What's the problem?
Many Real Madrid fans began to miss Florentino.

This is not good news for Calderon, which means that his chairmanship is becoming more and more unstable.

As far as the British media is concerned, they are just gloating about Real Madrid's problems, and that has nothing to do with them.

After the game, the British media praised Millwall, and the "Times" said, "Just watching this game, you know that Millwall has already qualified! Yes, the group stage has only just been played, and Millwall has only one match. Three points, but the team that beat Real Madrid by five goals in the away game, is it still a problem to qualify for the group stage?"

Millwall's overall performance was praised, as were individual players.

In the game, the players with the best performance were Vardy, Simpson, and Morris. The first two scored two goals, and Morris contributed two assists.

The assists are not as good as the goals, so they are not very attractive, but the media commented on the season, unanimously affirming Morris' performance. Recently, Morris's performance has been very low-key, especially after Sneijder's arrival. After this game, everyone's opinion has changed.

Not just because of the performance, but also because of the location.

The media analyzed Millwall's new formation and found that the formation of double midfielders will allow Morris to have sufficient playing time, because Braniff is not a professional midfielder, and Sneijder can also play as a midfielder. , but for the time being Morris has performed better.

The new lineup has a central midfielder, that is, the core of the frontcourt. Morris can play, Braniff can play, Sneijder can play, and even Simpson can try. The competition for this position is the most intense.

Therefore, Sneijder's biggest competitor is Braniff, and Braniff's performance is very stable and outstanding. He wants to squeeze out Braniff's main position. Judging from the current situation, it is almost Impossible.

Will Sneijder play as a substitute?

Of course not, such an outstanding player will definitely become one of the main players. The "Daily Mirror" analyzed, "Zhang Yang is trying to get Sneijder to play more. Cooperation and understanding of tactics are not enough, Zhang Yang still likes to use veteran players in many big competitions, but as the season progresses, Sneijder will gradually become the main force."

"Zhang Yang tried to play Braniff as a striker. He and Vardy partnered and played very well."

"Millwall fights on multiple lines, and players will not lack playing time. But in any case, it sounds like a luxury for Sneijder to be a substitute in a major competition."

"..."

Zhang Yang didn't worry about the positions of the midfielders. He thought there were too few outstanding players in the new season.

Sneijder is a very good player and has always performed quite well. The only thing is the tacit understanding with his teammates, which needs to be gradually strengthened. He does not want to be like Vardy and Braniff. After all, he needs to improve. Performance will also get better.

Zhang Yang is still looking forward to Sneijder. He hopes that the Dutchman can gradually adapt to various midfield positions, both the front midfielder and the midfielder.

Sneijder is not only a performance player, he is also a leader-level player. His character has leadership ability, and he can replace Morris in the future and become the core and captain of the team.

The perspective turns back to the country.

The Chinese media did not hesitate to praise Millwall's victory. It is unimaginable that the five-goal victory over Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League is still in the UEFA Champions League.

The current domestic football is bleak. In the Asian Cup in the summer, the Chinese team failed to qualify and lost to Uzbekistan in the competition, which once again refreshed the "bottom line" of fans' perception of the poor performance of the national team.

When the new European season comes, there will be a large number of domestic fans, who will no longer pay attention to the bleak domestic league, but turn their perspective to Europe.

Zhang Yang led Millwall and defeated Real Madrid strongly, which is very exciting.

Many fans on the Internet shouted the slogan "Let Zhang Yang coach China", but most of them just shouted. Many fans who opposed said, "The poor performance of the national team is not simply a coaching problem. Even if Zhang Yang coaches, the results will be the same. Difference!"

"Zhang Yang should lead the team well at Millwall!"

Some media analysis pointed out that Zhang Yang was very successful in coaching Millwall, and it is impossible to leave to coach the national team.

The next piece of news related to Zhang Yang immediately shifted the attention of the fans.

The "Youth Football Development Foundation" led by Zhang Yang was formally established. The brand name of the foundation is "Zero Seven", which simply means that it was formally established in 2007.

The establishment of the foundation was very sudden. Before that, there was only news from Zhang Yang. There were media reports that Zhang Yang's agent went to China to operate. After that, there was no news, and the matter seemed to be over.

Many media outlets felt that it was sudden. They received news saying, "The [-] Youth Football Development Foundation is about to hold an inaugural meeting and hold a press conference."

Immediately many reporters merged into the venue.

The internal meeting of the foundation is also very interesting. You can see many celebrities in the football world. In addition to some retired stars, football commentators and other industry insiders, you can also see some active players and agents. etc.

Most of those who came were managers, representatives of some stars, etc., and the more famous ones were retired stars Fan Zhiyi and Hao Huandong.

The two seem to have come to "support the scene".

The foundation's internal meeting is where Andy and other people who plan and operate together explain the general direction of the foundation's development and some internal operating methods to all those who donate to the foundation. Others can also express their opinions and participate discuss.

It's about developing a development strategy together.

The outside world does not know about the internal meeting. After the meeting, the foundation held an official press conference.

Andy is the main character.

The establishment of the entire foundation was led by Zhang Yang, because he himself could not return to China, and Andy basically did all the work.

At the press conference, Andy roughly explained the purpose of the foundation, "...Many people can see that the training of Chinese youth football is very expensive. Only some middle-class and rich families can train their children to go to China. kick the ball."

"There are many children who are very talented, and they can play in the future if they are trained well, but they don't have the corresponding resources, which wastes their talent and potential in football. The [-] Youth Football Development Foundation is to solve this problem."

"Our funding is to help those children with potential to learn how to play and kick the ball. For this reason, we have set up a special department to investigate families who apply for football training funding, and to evaluate a The corresponding potential of the child, and so on."

"As long as eligible families and children can receive funding, they will be sent to football schools that cooperate with the foundation, or echelons of professional teams at all levels for systematic training."

Andy's statement received unanimous applause.

Next, he announced the list of donors for the establishment of the foundation. Zhang Yang ranked first, with a donation amount of 1000 million yuan. If the conditions are met, an additional donation of 200 million US dollars will be confirmed. There are nearly a hundred other people in the football industry who have made donations , the total amount of donations reached 6000 million RMB.

The foundation is of a public welfare nature. If it wants to maintain long-term operation, it is impossible to rely entirely on social donations. Andy finally explained the mode of operation, "We will set up a specific economic company, and the children who receive funding also need an agent. The future also needs the operation of economic companies.”

"We also hope that through the operation of commercial economic companies, more and better children can be sent to grow up in a better environment."

The last simple statement immediately made the reporters boil.

That's not good news, nor is it bad news. It's just a way for the foundation to make money, but the commercialization of the foundation's operations may bring about 'long-term operation'.

If we all rely on social donations, we may go bankrupt due to "no donations" in the future, and the foundation's long-term operation will not be solved. With a special brokerage company, the children who receive sponsorship are also part of the economic company. There is real potential in the future Becoming a football star will definitely bring benefits to the economic company, and it will be able to support the long-term operation of the foundation.

This kind of football foundation operation mode is definitely the first in China, and it is even said that it is rare in the whole world.

Because... playing football, the proportion that can really kick it is too small!
Even in foreign professional clubs and professional scouts, one out of five children will become famous, and the ratio is very high, because the children are too young, even if they receive professional guidance, no one can tell what the future holds.

Such an operation method is definitely a loss-making business in a professional football economic company.

However, considering that the foundation is "non-profit" in nature, it will receive donations from the society. If it is cultivated and excavated, the benefits are not bad. operating strategy.

At the end of the press conference, other confirmed managers of the foundation also expressed their views and expectations for the development of the foundation. The last piece of news also made reporters and fans very pleased--
The financial operation of the foundation, including every donation received, all operating expenses, and every investment and expenditure for youth football, will be disclosed in detail and subject to everyone's supervision.

Financial transparency is so important!
What many people like to hear most is transparency, because many domestic organizations are opaque. For example, how much salary does a local organization have for its employees?How much is the year-end bonus?How much did you collect in taxes?What are the expenses?

and many more.

Most people don't know, and there is no way to check the details after careful investigation.

Financial opacity will cause many problems, and it will also give the public a sense of "corruption". After all, where the money is spent and whether each expenditure is reasonable, other people have no idea at all.

A charitable foundation that accepts the supervision of everyone can give the public more confidence and attract more donations.

Immediately after the press conference, the Foundation made public the status of the donations received and the expenses incurred during the establishment process. Each and every item was clearly listed, and the channels for the public to apply for fund support were also made public.

----

The [-] Youth Football Development Foundation has been supported by a large number of domestic practitioners since its establishment in the first day of junior high school. Many influential figures in the domestic football industry have expressed their opinions and expressed their support.

At the same time, the foundation has also established cooperative relations with various famous football primary schools and professional clubs.

The media has given absolutely positive praise.

During the discussion among the fans, they also expressed their great support for the foundation. As the leader of the foundation, Zhang Yang also gained a lot of fame and praise through this.

It is impossible for everyone to be happy in everything. Zhang Jian, the leader of the youth football department of the domestic football association, was very unhappy. He finally thought of a way to raise funds to establish more than a dozen football schools. Even if it is useless in the end, it is still a big deal. achievements.

Finally?

The youth football department sent employees one by one to lobby people in the football community to donate. As a result, the amount confirmed so far is less than 500 million yuan.

When the Zero Seven Foundation was established, those who refused to donate all went to the Zero Seven Foundation to donate. Even those who had agreed to donate before had the idea of ​​regretting it. Donated to the Zero Seven Foundation.

Judging from this situation, the preparatory work of the football school will definitely not progress.

Zhang Jian gritted his teeth in hatred.

But he has no choice. The establishment of the football school has not even been approved by the Football Association. The higher level of the Football Association is concerned about the professional league. Youth football training is also very important, but the domestic situation is like this. Who will pay attention to the future?

The current leader in football may go down in two years. How football will develop in the next ten or 20 years has nothing to do with most officials.

Therefore, the "losing money" youth football department has become the least valued organization within the Football Association.

Zhang Jian was also criticized by the leaders for this, because he failed to do what he did, and the impact was really not small. A public donation announcement made the whole country know, and the anticlimax of the matter also affected the overall prestige of the Football Association.

"It will be even more difficult to think about what to do in the future." Zhang Jian thought gloomily, not forgetting the instigator Liang Jiayong.

Liang Jiayong went to London to persuade Zhang Yang, but he didn't get a penny for the donation, forcing him to open his own foundation and leave the Football Association's department aside?
How does this work!

----

London Millwall Club.

The first-team players are training hard, and Zhang Yang is standing by the court. For the past two days, he has personally supervised the training.

Zhang Yang also knew about the affairs of the domestic foundation, but he didn't care too much. He just gave his work advice. Andy would not do too badly in his own name.

Andy's ability to work can still be trusted.

For Zhang Yang, the most important thing is to lead the team. Recently, Millwall's schedule is not intensive, but the competition is very stressful. After the Champions League against Real Madrid, he returned to London and immediately prepared for the match against Arsenal.

There are only two days between the two games.

In other words, today's training is over, and tomorrow we will go to the Emirates Stadium for a game. The two days are too short, and there is no way to prepare for it. Fortunately, Arsenal are not too difficult opponents, and Zhang Yang is still very confident.

Although I don't want to 'bury' my old friend Wenger, Arsenal led by Wenger will have a very small chance of winning against Millwall with a normal attack.

It has been proven in the past two seasons.

What Millwall is most afraid of now is the offensive opponent. Unless it is like Barcelona at its peak, the ball-handling ability is too strong, which will make Millwall very troubled. threatened.

The tight schedule still brings some troubles, which will affect the state of the players. In arranging the starting lineup, Zhang Yang was really troubled by the help of "spiritual divination".

No matter how many troubles there are, the game should come or come.

At noon the next day, the Millwall team went to the Emirates Stadium in North London to participate in the game.The attention of the whole of England was attracted by this game.

This is not only a focus battle, but also a battle for the top of the Premier League.

At present, in the Premier League standings, Millwall and Arsenal have [-] points with [-] wins and [-] draw. The advantage is not guaranteed, whichever team can win the game can stand out in the competition for the top of the league.

Both teams certainly take the game very seriously.

Arsenal's situation is better. They only participate in the UEFA Cup, and the UEFA Cup group stage is much less stressful. Their last game was also five days ago, and they were more fully prepared for the game.

Millwall is fighting continuously, and they are all big battles. Even if they beat Real Madrid in an away game, flying back and forth and playing games will be a challenge to the physical condition of the players.

Arsenal is also playing at home, and the external advantage is still relatively large.

However, the game mainly depends on the strength and performance of both sides. No matter how many external advantages are analyzed, it is also necessary for the team to perform on the field. Millwall showed full confidence. What gave them confidence was not only the good results in the league, but also the away victory over Real Madrid. , It also brought high morale to the whole team.

When the game started, Millwall also put up a 352 formation, planning to have a head-to-head head-to-head with Arsenal away.

result……

Arsenal started to defend.
