Chapter 302: A good championship situation cannot be destroyed
"How is it, I won, right?" Tiger said proudly in the locker room.
Valencia's players were speechless, but they began to admire Tiger. Even if they were lucky, they could do it after saying it. This is really awesome for Tiger...
"Okay, Tiger, you won."
After a long period of disarray, Mendetta said helplessly: "Tell me, what do you want us to do?"
"It's not the time yet." Tiger waved his hand mysteriously: "I remember that you all owe me a bet. After the season is over, I have something to ask you to help you, and I'll just come and help me."
Valencia's players looked at each other and became curious.
Halfway through, Tiger, who was concealed, was immediately forced to confess by other players, but Tiger followed the fine tradition of a good man, that is, "I won't say anything if I beat him to death"...
In the end, the teammates who had no choice but to stop, but they also knew that Tiger would definitely not let them do anything too difficult, so they could only bury this doubt in their hearts.
Tiger smiled in his heart. In fact, it was nothing to say that his plan was clear. The football-related movie that Jones told him that he wanted to invest in. Tiger and Jones spent half of their investments, but the investment was not high. After all, most of the scenes in the entire movie were carried out in the same prison, which means that even in a desolate place, there were several houses to be arranged and filmed, and the shooting equipment and other constructions were built. Ritchie could help support it.
, with the help of Jones's face, Jason Fleming and Jason Statham, two well-known actors and some of the actors who participated in "Two Big Bowls", will come to play guest roles. The roles that require the most skill will be played by these professional actors, and other extras can be found. The most important part of the whole movie will be in the last game. At that time, the players in Valencia will be taken to be extras, which will save much money...
According to Jones' estimate, even if this movie has no market in the United States, it will definitely have a strong appeal in the UK. After all, Jones is not very famous, and Tiger will be even more sensational if she participates in it. If Valencia players also make guest appearances, they will have a lot of market in Spain, and you can make a good fortune.
This kind of guest appearance is basically a playful nature. At most, it is to symbolically subsidize these players, but it has obtained much more than these things. Tiger can still calculate this account...
Of course, even if this movie is to be filmed, it will only be filmed after the season is over. Anyway, such a low-cost movie will not take too much time, and there will be no major competitions this summer, and Valencia's players will have time at that time.
With a complacent mood, Tiger returned to his apartment. Today's game was really rewarding. He hoped to win Real Madrid and win the league championship increased greatly. If this movie in the summer is well operated, not to mention anything else, there will definitely be a few million pounds of income, which can be considered as adding a lot of weight to his ideals.
However, what Tiger did not expect was that when he was proud, a rumor against Tiger or Valencia began to spread gradually...
The rumors first came from Real Madrid's chairman Florentino. After returning to Madrid with the entire Real Madrid team, facing the reporters who came to interview, he did not show any dissatisfaction or any anger, but instead expressed: "Real Madrid's economic situation has improved a lot. The introduction of Figo last summer has greatly helped the team. However, Real Madrid is not strong enough and needs to introduce more top players. In the next summer, Real Madrid will also introduce a top superstar to strengthen its strength."
Such a declaration is not too sensational. After all, Real Madrid is indeed rich now. The Madrid city government spent hundreds of millions to buy Real Madrid's training base and then provided the training base for Real Madrid. This alone allowed Real Madrid to fill all the deficits and have a considerable surplus. Such a move also caused dissatisfaction from Barcelona. However, the fact is that Real Madrid's economy is not always on the verge of bankruptcy like the Sans era. In terms of business capabilities, Florentino can indeed surpass former chairman Sans.
However, after Florentino made such a propaganda, Real Madrid's mouthpiece "As" published a picture of Tiger wearing a Real Madrid jersey the next day. In fact, after the game, Tiger and Marklele exchanged jerseys and put the jersey on themselves. Interestingly, Tiger's number in Valencia is the same as Marklele's number in Real Madrid, both number in No. 24. At a high level, I thought Tiger was wearing Valencia's jersey...
Then the rumors began. Real Madrid Chairman Florentino admired Tiger's remarks all over the world. Florentino liked to introduce players who had defeated Real Madrid. Figo is an example. Real Madrid has prepared a transfer fee of up to $60 million to introduce Tiger - Tiger's termination fee is exactly $60 million...
At first, Tiger didn't know these things, and it was not until two days later that he realized something was wrong.
"I said guys, you don't really think I'm going to Real Madrid, right?" Tiger asked his teammates helplessly on the training ground.
"The outside is hot now..." Menditta replied.
"Stop kidding, it's only a few days ago, how could I contact them... Besides, can't you see that? Now we have a great chance of winning the league championship. Who is our biggest opponent? Who is the happiest if we are in trouble? What are the characteristics of the news of "As" and "Marca"?"
Tiger looked at his teammates with contempt: "It's a good thing you have been in Spain for so long. Even my foreign aid who has only been here for less than two years knows what their idea is. You can't tell it. I really want to despise you!"
After saying this, Tiger was surrounded by his emotional teammates and beaten up - but although Tiger was beaten, Valencia no longer had his heart to be moved by these sources...
Two days later, Valencia, who was in a state of great momentum at home, defeated Arsenal with a clean and neat 2-0. Tiger scored the first record for the team in the first half, maintaining his record of consecutive goals. In the second half, Ayala received a corner kick from Mundeta to score. In this game, Valencia's players could not see the fatigue he had just defeated Real Madrid at home. He performed at a very high level in the game and scored two goals with his signature defense. Their stable defense did not give Arsenal too many scoring opportunities. Valencia reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for two consecutive years!
While Valencia fans were excited about the team going further in the Champions League, Tiger's words at the post-match press conference made their mood reach its peak.
"I am a Valencia player. I will not consider any team contact before playing this season for Valencia. Although no one can say good about the future, now I only think about the Champions League and La Liga matches, and we will strive for these two championships this season. At the same time, in my personal relationship, I don't want to wear any other La Liga team jerseys other than Valencia and play on the court. I will always remember that more than a year ago, when I wanted to leave Manchester United, the only team that contacted me and promised to give me the core position of the offensive was Valencia, not any other team."
After Tiger finished saying this, the local reporters in Valencia in the venue exclaimed thunderous applause. When the news spread, Tiger's position in Valencia fans' minds exceeded that of the local captain Mendita!
Even the excited Valencia fans announced that they would set up a statue outside the Mestalia Stadium, which scared Tiger. Although Batistuta had the precedent, he always felt that the erecting statue was prepared for the dead...
"I suddenly felt that Valencia's fans were so good... I just said I didn't want to go to other La Liga teams, nor did I say I wanted to live my life in Valencia. They were so moved... I was moved." Tiger sighed and said to Sideta.
"Are you going to die?" Mendita smiled bitterly: "It's simple to say, but how can it be so easy to do."
Tiger was stunned, then looked at Menditta carefully: "What's wrong with you... What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"Indeed... you guy is a little too smart sometimes!" Menditta continued to smile bitterly: "My agent told me that Lazio is very interested in me."
"Lazio?" Tiger was stunned for a moment: "They want you? But their midfielder is not short of people, Stankovic, Veron, Nedved, Simeone... Where is there a place? Besides, Claudio went there and played not very well."
"That's the reason." Menditta nodded, then hesitated: "But the salary they gave... is very generous."
Tiger continued to be stunned. He is now receiving an annual salary of four million US dollars in Valencia. Mendeta is on par with him. This number is among the top in the entire La Liga. Perhaps only Figo's annual salary of five million this year and Rivaldo's re-renewed contract can be higher than them. Mendeta can speak the word very generous...
"Six million, after tax, and my portrait rights are all mine." Although it was at the Tiger family and there was no one else, Menditta still lowered his voice.
Tiger took a deep breath. No wonder Mendeta was moved. He was on par with Rivaldo's salary, portrait rights and various bonuses. Tiger didn't know if he would be so moved...
"What do you think?" Tiger asked Mendieta.
"I don't know." Mendetta said the truth: "But now I'm the same as you, just thinking about the current game... I've won the Champions League last year, and I'm now eager to win a league championship."
"The same is true for me." Tiger smiled and stretched out his hand at Mundieta: "Then let's join forces and grab the league championship from Real Madrid... It's not the first time anyway."
"Haha!" Mendieta laughed with gloom. Indeed, he had already snatched it once last year...
Mendeta's words also touched Tiger a lot. Originally, he thought that he would not leave Valencia, Mendeta would not leave - after all, he could only be regarded as a passerby in Valencia. When he came to Valencia, he was already twenty-four years old. He was not young at this age, but Mendeta was Valencia's local youth training and a flagship figure. Valencia is not a small ball player, but he was not as rich as those rich families. However, in those era when wealthy families were spending money crazy, local people were indeed very fragile.
The European giants are not without flags, but they are in a giant family, and the transfer is nothing more than to go to another giant family. There are very few players with the strength of the giants and who are in a small team, and it can even be said to be none. In Tiger's impression, there is only one Letisel from Southampton. This is a legend that is often valued by Manchester United and other giants but has always been in Southampton. However, Tiger knows that he will not become such a player because he has greater ambitions.
Of course, there is one thing Tiger knows. No matter how the wealthy families pursue themselves, their foundation is based on their outstanding performance. When they are useful, they will naturally be incredible. Once their abilities decrease, they may face the situation of being abandoned.
This is the situation that mercenaries must face. When they decided to leave Preston, Tiger had this awareness. If they wanted to be abandoned without being passively, they could only take the initiative if they remained at the peak.
"My peak period comes later, but it will disappear very late." Tiger said to himself in his heart.
******************************************************
Valencia advanced to the semifinals. In other quarter-finals, Real Madrid reversed the situation at home, defeating Galatasaray three-zero and entering the semifinals, while their opponent eliminated Manchester United's Bayern in two rounds, three-to-one. Last season, Real Madrid eliminated Bayern in an unfavorable situation and entered the Champions League final. This time, meeting with Bayern again in the semifinals is also a continuation of the competition last season.
Valencia's opponent is another Premier League team - Leeds United played the most relaxed in the quarterfinals. This team, which is quite as good as Valencia's dark horse last season, won consecutive victories this season in the unfavorable situation. In the first stage of the group stage, they kicked Barcelona to the League Cup with AC Milan, and in the second stage of the group stage, Lazio was out of the game. In the knockout round, they defeated La Coruña three-zero at home. Although La Coruña, who returned to home, tried hard to score two of their goals, they were still unable to turn things around and were eliminated.
"This will be the ultimate confrontation between La Liga and Premier League!"
Valencia's local media used inflammatory article titles to stimulate the attention of fans. Compared with Real Madrid and Bayern's battle, Valencia and Leeds have no shortage of highlights - Valencia has encountered two of the three Premier League teams before, they first drove Manchester United to the second place in the group, and then eliminated Arsenal, which can be regarded as the nemesis of the Premier League, but Leeds United is even better than them - they eliminated Barcelona in the first stage of the group stage, and although they did not eliminate Real Madrid in the second stage, they still qualified with Real Madrid and eliminated La Coruna in the quarter-finals. It is really reasonable to say that the nemesis of La Liga is...
"Now, it depends on who will defeat those two nemesis."
The two semi-finals with Leeds United will be held in early May. Before that, Valencia has two league games to play, namely, away challenge Ovido and home against Valladolid. Both teams are weak teams close to the relegation zone. Although the relegation team has never been easy to play, they must do their best to defeat these two opponents and lay enough advantages before the Champions League!
Valencia has won ten consecutive games in all competitions. Tiger's outstanding performance and the good performance of all players are the decisive factors for such brilliant results. However, the fact that there was only one week of double games during this period also caused Valencia's players to decline in physical fitness. The decline in physical fitness brought about a decline in form. After defeating two strong enough opponents in succession, they fell in front of Ovido, a weak team...
The players were in poor condition in the first half, and the players missed many opportunities, and Ovedo's fierce defense also made Cooper worry - it was not a good thing if the main player was injured at this time, but he still suffered a heavy blow in the second half. Keelle injured his thigh in the press with the opponent. After the game, he was diagnosed with two weeks of rest, which means he will miss two semi-finals against Leeds and the next two league games.
Although Tiger assisted Mendeta to open the first record shortly after the start of the second half, Cooper, who was afraid that the players would continue to be injured, replaced the two absolute main players with Zahovic and Alberta. However, what he regretted was that before the end of the game, Ovedo scored a goal, and the long shot at the front of the penalty area hit Ayala and flew into the goal, and Canisales failed to save it.
In another game, Real Madrid relied on Raul's second goal and Savio's wonderful goal on the bench to beat Zaragoza, 3-2, and scored one point behind Valencia!
At this time, Cooper was no longer allowed to wave left and right. In the next home game against Valladolid, Valencia's main players played the whole game. Finally, relying on Baraja's kick and shot to defeat the opponent 1-0, while Real Madrid lost the chain. They were distracted by the Champions League and were tied 1-1 by the weak team Osasuna at home. Valencia once again expanded the lead advantage to three-pointers!
This result made Valencia ecstatic. Although the Champions League is equally important, there is no doubt that for Valencia, the league championship is now more important than the Champions League championship - this is the last championship that their players have never won. Such a good situation will never be ruined!
