Ye Qiu called Peter Kenyon in his garden. He was not willing to let his wife know about his troubles. But as the closest and most familiar person, Huang Chu could not know what his husband was thinking.

She did not disturb Ye Qiu's phone call, nor did she affect her husband's thoughts. She stood quietly behind him and looked at him silently, just as if she was silently watching him in the stands every game.

As if he had noticed it, Ye Qiu turned around and saw his wife with concern. He squeezed out a stiff smile and waved to Huang Chu. Anyway, today is a holiday and the team is on holiday, so he has enough time to spend with his wife.

Huang Chu showed a blooming smile, walked to Ye Qiu's side, sitting next to him on the long stone chair in the garden, gently knocking his shoulders, without saying anything, just leaning quietly and accompanying him silently.

She knew Ye Qiu very well and knew very clearly that at this moment, what Ye Qiu needed was not suggestions and explanations, but listening.

"I'm a little tired of this kind of life that I can't help but feel uncontrollably," Ye Qiu sighed and said.

In the eyes of many people, Ye Qiu controls everything at Chelsea and holds the power of life and death, but only he himself knows that in fact, all this cannot give him a sense of security, because all this does not belong to him, but to Abramovich.

Ye Qiu has never been a person who would choose to bow down for the sake of power. He never flatters Abramovich, nor has he ever pleased the Russians. On the contrary, he has always dared to argue, and even Peter Kenyon is not as good as him. But the facts prove that Ye Qiu is right even now.

To put it in mind, Ye Qiu could also understand that it takes a lot of courage and measure to hire such employees and tolerate such employees. Therefore, Ye Qiu has always been diligent. He always felt that if Abramovich trusted him, he would have to make achievements and give rewards. This is his professional ethics.

But he will not change some principled things, for example, he will never allow anyone to point fingers at his locker room. Therefore, even if Abramovich wants to go to the locker room, he has to call Ye Qiu in advance.

Everything went smoothly since we arrived at Chelsea, but just yesterday afternoon, the words of Pini Zahavi sounded a wake-up call to Ye Qiu, that is, Abramovich's will is the key to truly determine Chelsea's fate.

If described as Microsoft's u operating system, Ye Qiu is the user who has the greatest authority in the system, but Abramovich holds the authority of the system administrator. He can use the authority of the administrator at any time and anywhere to interfere with Ye Qiu's power, and even directly delete the user Ye Qiu and rebuild a user ID.

This made Ye Qiu feel a sense of fatigue. Perhaps he didn't feel much when the weather was going smoothly, but now, he was clearly feeling the threat. At least Abramovich actually carried him on his back to operate the transfer, which made him feel dissatisfied.

Of course, things are not serious enough to resign directly, because at least Abramovich has not admitted anything to him personally, nor has he said anything to him personally. It is too early and too hasty to react now.

Although Ye Qiu is young, after spending time in professional football for a long time, others become mature.

"I heard Eliza say it several times, and I think she is saying it well. If you think it's not good to work for someone, then buy a team yourself." Huang Chu said softly.

Eliza has also mentioned this proposal many times. She also suggested that Ye Qiu acquire a League One team or a Dutch team, but Ye Qiu has his own ideas because he is very clear about what the future trend of football is.

It's like Leeds United, which was relegated this season. It's too cheap to acquire Leeds United now, but the problem is that if you acquire this team, you have to bear all the debts of Leeds United, up to 100 million pounds of debt, which is nearly 500 million euros. Moreover, after the team is relegated to the League One, the situation will become even more embarrassing.

According to Ye Qiu's estimate, if you want to lead Leeds United to rise again, the initial investment will require at least 100 million euros, and it is necessary to ensure that most of the team's main players do not go. The subsequent later investment is the key big end.

You know, Leeds is not a big city. Northern England has some former heavy industrial bases, and now it has declined. Even Manchester is working hard to transform, so it is difficult for Ye Qiu to make a big move when buying Leeds United.

Of course, if you just want to get a mid-range seat in the Premier League, occasionally play European competitions, lead the team to appreciate and then sell it, there is nothing to say, but Ye Qiu wants to buy a club to do business, so he has to carefully choose.

Looking at today's football world, almost all the giant teams have one thing in common, that is, they are all in big cities.

Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle in the Premier League, Manchester, Liverpool, London and Newcastle are all big cities. Even Birmingham, where Birmingham and Aston Villa are located, are all big cities, with a large fan base and wide influence. In addition, the business is relatively developed, which is far from comparable to small and medium-sized cities such as Nottingham and Leeds.

Let’s look at La Liga. Real Madrid and Barcelona are located in the two largest cities in Spain, while Italy is Rome, Milan and Turin, Germany is Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, etc.

Of course, there will also be some small teams, which are more obvious in Germany, but they also have their own special features, that is, many small teams are supported by large companies, such as Philips in Eindhoven, the Agnelli family in Juventus, Bayer Pharmaceutical Factory in Leverkusen, etc.

There is no need to expect the Bundesliga. The teams in this league will not be sold to foreigners like Ye Qiu, and there is no need to think about La Liga. Putting aside the two major membership giants, it is difficult for other teams to compete with the two major giants, because they will be divided up by others before you can turn over.

The decline of Serie A has become a fact, and the Italian team's business operations are very bad, and even the stadium is not his own. It is difficult for such a league to bear the profit and loss in team operations, so Ye Qiu was not interested, and he always aimed at the Premier League.

The big cities in the Premier League are nothing more than London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool and Newcastle, but the teams in these cities are not cheap, and they have to consider the investment in the later stage. Not to mention anything else, a football club's fiscal expenditure in a season is at least over 100 million. Even if you save money, you will have to spend tens of millions of euros, right?

"It's not the time yet." Ye Qiu gently patted his wife's shoulders, turned his head, greedily sniffing her refreshing fragrance, feeling the warmth conveyed by her forehead against her cheeks, and her irritable heart gradually calmed down.

Yes, it's not the time. Now, the most important thing for him is to gain your own qualifications

The football circle is actually very strange. You say that it has a developed business and everyone pursues fame, fortune and money. This is true, but the problem is that he is also a human-oriented circle. Many players like to play football under the head coach who is familiar with and understands themselves, and even transfer to follow him for this.

If Ye Qiu is an unknown little person, even if he buys a Premier League club, no star is willing to join. But if he is the world's top coach, the situation will be completely different. I believe that by then, with his fame and status, it will be enough to attract a group of outstanding and potential stars to join, which will save him a lot of trouble and investment.

It can be said that if Chelsea did not invite Ye Qiu this season, Abramovich would not expect to attract stars such as Davis, Cannavaro, Ronaldinho and other stars with a transfer investment of about 500 million euros, because no player is willing to play football simply for money, at least these players are not that old.

Ye Qiu said no matter what, he has the glory of Ajax in the past, three years of Ajax's first-team resume, one League Cup, two Eredivisie champions, one Champions League semi-finals and one Champions League champion, and the most important thing is the last year's triple crown. These are his qualifications, and everyone has to admit it.

Even so, Ye Qiu is still very clear that Chelsea cannot really attract the top stars. Henry and Shevchenko had been killed before and refused to come to Chelsea. The Ukrainian has agreed now, and the reason is very simple. Chelsea has a lot of hope to win the Champions League this season, and if they continue to invest more next season, they will still be the most popular candidate for the Champions League.

If there is no Champions League this season, would Shevchenko nod?

"Do you think I'm useless? Nothing can help you?" Huang Chu asked sadly on Ye Qiu's shoulder.

She couldn't help Ye Qiu's career, and she couldn't help him coaching her. She was not good at helping him manage his business in the United States. She didn't even care much about her own Huangtian Group. Instead, Chen Zhong called whenever there was something, or came to Ye Qiu in person, and she was just a bystander.

Sometimes when thinking about it, Huang Chu feels that Eliza is much better than herself. She is in the United States, but she can still manage brokerage companies far away from the United Kingdom in an orderly manner. Moreover, the operations of Yezi Technology in the United States have gradually improved, and some websites have been launched one after another, which are very popular and highly praised, and the company's performance is booming.

She even thought foolishly that if she hadn't met Ye Qiu earlier, maybe Ye Qiu would have liked Eliza, the big helper, not herself, right?

Ye Qiu guessed his wife's thoughts. This man must not think that he doesn't need to coax women after getting married. That's wrong. Married women should continue to coax them. It's best that you can coax her for the rest of your life.

"Yes, if you don't say it, I don't know. If you think about it carefully, you are really useless and can't help with anything." Ye Qiu deliberately did not say good things, intentionally just wanted to use words to tease her and stimulate her.

Huang Chu pouted cutely, "Do you really think so?"

"Of course" Ye Qiu nodded with a smile, "Don't refuse to admit it, I'll calculate what you will do?"

Not to mention, Huang Chu really opened his eyes wide and listened to him with a look of concern.

"Uh, what you can do the most is cooking. I eat the dishes you cook for three meals every day, and I can eat the dishes you cook every day when I get home. Well, this is your credit; and your massage technique is good. I help me massage every night to activate my muscles and bones. Well, this is another one."

"Also, I think you have good medical skills and have regular physical examinations for me. I'm worried that I'm having a heart attack like Ferguson and Hollier. This seems to be more worried than myself. This is another one; Oh, by the way, you introduced the psychologists of our season this season. I'm very capable, and I'll count it one."

"besides"

Ye Qiu said on the surface that he had few advantages, but in fact he said it was smooth and smooth, without any hindrance. He said a lot of things directly, which made Huang Chu feel coquettish again, but he felt happy in his heart, just scolding this guy for teasing him on purpose just now, which made him think he was really useless.

"The most important thing is that you are so beautiful and I am very proud of taking you out." Ye Qiu finally pinched Huang Chu's cheeks annoyingly, as if he was pinching the pink face of a baby, and it hurt so much.

Huang Chu was unwilling to be pinched, so he reached forward with both hands and pinched Ye Qiu's face. The two of them competed with each other.

"It hurts, be gentle, I can make a living by relying on this face," Ye Qiu shouted exaggeratedly.

"Just kill you." Huang Chu was filled with righteous indignation.

The two were quarreling on the long stone chair, wrestling and entangled. Anyway, there were only two of them in the villa, and there were no outsiders, so there was no need to worry about being seen. They would do whatever they wanted. In the end, Huang Chu was tightly held in Ye Qiu's arms and struggled desperately, but he was finally appointed.

"I tell you, can it be the same for me, but what I want is a wife who can always stand behind me and can see her encouraging smile as soon as I look back, so never doubt your importance to me, nor your ability, do you know?"

After being coaxed by him, Huang Chu was completely moved and was so obedient that he was like a little sheep that he could slaughter.

On May 15, after the 38th round of the Premier League, Chelsea ended the league.

On the evening of May, the Champions League final was held at the Schalke Stadium in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.

There was 1 day in between these two games, so Ye Qiu had very plenty of time to prepare for this important final calmly, but Ye Qiu did not give the team too much vacation, but instead had a holiday on the morning of the 16th and resumed training in the afternoon

It is not difficult to see from the training that Ye Qiu's entire training arrangement is arranged around the Champions League final 10 days later.

Chelsea's 1-day preparation time seems to be very abundant, but Porto is more abundant than Chelsea at this point, because Mourinho's team has ended 34 rounds of the Portuguese Premier League since May 5, and they have 1-day to prepare for this game calmly. It can be foreseen that the Portuguese will definitely make targeted arrangements for this game.

Mourinho is a very difficult opponent. Even though Chelsea poached Deco this season, Mourinho introduced Cardoso Mendez Thiago from Benfica. This midfielder with both offense and defense is formed with Maniche, Costinia and Mendes, which is a defensive midfielder.

But don't think Mourinho's lineup has not counterattacked. Although Porto's tactics this season tend to be defensive, even in the Portuguese Super League, his offensive ability is not obvious. He only scored 53 goals in the 34 rounds of the Portuguese Super League, which can be said to be very few, but his defense is very solid, with only 17 conceded goals, and averaging 05 goals per game is indeed very outstanding.

Ye Qiu is very sure that Mourinho will not easily change his tactical style, that is to say, defense is still the main theme of Porto in the finals, because there is a huge gap in the strength of Porto and Chelsea. If Mourinho blindly chooses to fight, it will undoubtedly be in Ye Qiu's mind.

Of course, he also knew very well that Mourinho could not just defend, because for a team like Chelsea that has excellent midfield and front-field pressure and has excellent ability to control the game in the whole game, passiveness means death, just the difference between dying early and dying late.

Therefore, Ye Qiu kept instilling in the players in various changes that may occur in the game during training, such as Porto seized the initiative after the start of the game. You should know that seizing the initiative does not mean that you must attack, but it can also achieve your strategic goals by destroying Chelsea's rhythm and control.

Of course, there may be a more extreme scene, where Porto sets up an iron barrel formation and defends to the end, but this possibility is not very high, because in this game, Chelsea's main center is the tall and mighty Drogba, and the Ivorians have outstanding dominance in the penalty area, which the Portuguese will definitely be afraid of.

This season, Porto's ace central defender is Carvalho, and another partner is to adjust between Angola central defenders Pedro Emmanuel and Joje Costa. Emmanuel is only lm in height and RU, and can still deal with the Portuguese Super League, but to deal with Drogba, partner Carvalho looks too thin.

Ye Qiu is sure that Mourinho's main central defenders must be Carvalho and Jose Costa, and he will definitely make a fuss about Chelsea's Drogba, and at the same time limit Ronaldinho and Lampard's back insertion.

In this way, Porto has few choices, and tightening the three lines becomes a must. Otherwise, Ronaldinho and Lampard will be given room for play, and with Deco's dispatch, Mourinho will not be able to defend even if he is outstanding.

Sometimes, the head coach’s tactics when setting up football games are to be bold and careful.

Looking at the head coaches who do not have the championship appearance, such as Ranieri and Cooper, they all have one obvious commonality, that is, they are not brave enough, and when they encounter problems, they think about being cautious, being safe, and how to control their opponents firmly.

But this is impossible on the football field, and no team can fully control their opponents.

Therefore, many times, the more cautious you are, the more likely you are to backfire, especially when you have a certain advantage.
