Chapter 372 Premier League First Battle
In the afternoon, a luxury plane flying from Alaska, USA slowly landed at John Lennon Airport in Liverpool.
Not long after, Abramovich walked out of the VIP passage at the airport under the escort of a group of bodyguards in black suits.
There is a long row of parking at the airport gate, with more than a dozen silver BMW 735 luxury cars. The most conspicuous one in the middle is the limited-edition version.
The BMW 735, which has such a large number and a uniform color, is extremely rare even in London. Such a grand occasion naturally attracted the attention of curious passers-by inside and outside the airport.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a group of powerful bodyguards standing next to the car, someone would have walked up to find out.
Soon, Abramovich and his group left the airport hall, got into the long row of BMWs, left the airport, and headed straight for Anfield Stadium.
As Abramovich's cronie and chief assistant, Marina Granovskiya knew her boss' temperament very well, so she had prepared newspapers to spend time in the car and soaked a cup of fragrant American coffee in advance.
Sitting in the carriage, crossing my legs, savoring the hot coffee, and looking at the freshly baked newspaper.
"Why are all newspapers related to Gao Han today?" Abramovich was a little surprised.
The Sun, Times, Mirror, Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, Independent...
In a large stack of newspapers in the carriage, almost all the front page headlines were about Gao Han and Chelsea, which made Abramovich, who had been on vacation in Alaska, the United States for a while.
Marina Granovskiya immediately briefly said what happened yesterday, but did not express her own opinion, but waited for the boss to express his opinion.
"This time I offended the entire British media." Abramovich laughed.
Look at him, it seems that for him, it is just a very trivial matter.
Put down the newspaper in his hand and look at the assistant opposite him, "What? What's the problem?"
Marina Granovskiya replied without hesitation: "It's Pini."
"Pini?" Abramovich nodded, "What's the problem with him?"
"He told me that this summer, except for a few British players, all the other players are handled by Jorge Mendes, and there are doubts about several transfers, and he thinks there are some problems."
After hearing this, Abramovich was silent at first, just looking at his assistant silently, but then laughed, "It's normal. If we want to poach people and compete with those wealthy families, we must have to pay a higher price."
"There are two things that are most attractive in professional football, one is fame and the other is profit. Since we are fame and cannot compete with wealthy teams, we have to work hard on profit. These are all mentally prepared."
As he said that, he gently pulled open the curtains in the back row of the BMW and pointed to the rapidly regressing scenery outside the window.
"Marina, look, people always say that you have to slow down to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window, but for us, if you slow down, you will never catch up with those wealthy families in your life. If you want to overtake on the curve, we have to be faster and more ruthless than them."
"But..." Abramovich looked back at his assistant again and chuckled, "...It's almost time, I'll miss the beautiful scenery, so, most importantly, we must clearly grasp what we really want. Do you understand what I mean?"
Marina Granovskiya was naturally not an ordinary person to be able to become Abramovich's close assistant. She was very smart and often had a little bit of clarity, so she quickly realized the meaning of the boss.
Whether it is right or wrong, Pini Zahavi's words are of no use for Chelsea today.
Since Abramovich chose Gao Han as the team's head coach, he has handed over the burden of revitalizing Chelsea to Gao Han. Not to mention that there is no tangible evidence to prove that Gao Han is greedy, even if there is evidence in front of Abramovich, he will not even pay attention to it.
Just that summer transfer, how much can I collect for black gold?
Millions, okay, tens of millions, enough, right?
But in Abramovich's opinion, this amount of money is not even a big deal. Will he care?
As long as he believes that Gao Han can help him achieve his goal as soon as possible one day, he will not pay attention to such rumors.
If one day he wants Gao Han to get out of class, it must be that he thinks Gao Han will not complete the task he gave him.
When it really comes to that time, no matter whether there is a problem or not, he says there must be one.
Because at Chelsea, he is the supreme heaven!
"I understand, boss." Marina Granovskiya replied as she was taught.
She now knew what Abramovich meant.
"Just understand." Abramovich pulled the curtains again, and the carriage became much darker again.
"But Marina, you know, Pini is a broker. He said that because we spent 200 million this summer, but he didn't get much, and the biggest part was taken to Jorge Mendes, so he was unhappy, but he was also very smart."
Marina Granovskiya understood what the boss meant. At least Pini Zahavi did not participate in this media action against Gao Han, and he also took the initiative to inform Marina Granovskiya, which was a smart team.
"If you tell Pinney back, just say I understand, so he can rest assured."
"Understood."
"By the way, how are the TV reporters preparing?"
"Well, the famous reporters and interview team of bbc TV have arrived. They are in the private room and will accompany you to watch the game and shoot the entire interview."
"very good."

"Welcome to Sky TV, I am your old friend Andy Gray."
"Hello everyone, I'm Martin Taylor."
"Today we will explain this game to you. The most popular focus game in the first round of the Premier League this season, with the Reds Liverpool sitting in Anfield and facing the Blues Chelsea."
"I believe everyone is looking forward to this game because this is the first official debut of Gao Han this season after coaching Chelsea. We all look forward to knowing whether his Chelsea can set sail smoothly."
"Yes, yes, the first round of the league is crucial for the newly formed Chelsea," Martin Taylor continued.
"We can see that the owner of Chelsea behind the scenes, Russian Abramovich, also came to the scene in person, but Anfield fans did not seem to welcome him and booed him."
"Okay, we have already won the starting lineup of both teams."
"Liverpool still adopts its own 442 formation. Hollier's starting lineup is goalkeeper Dudek, defense is Riser, Hepia, Henjoz and Carragher, midfielder Diouf, Murphy, Biscan and Kewell, and the double strikers are Husky and Irving."
"Chelsea has adopted a 433 formation, with goalkeepers Van der Sar, defenses are Bridge, Galas, Terry and Ferreira, midfielders are Deco, Marklele and Perron, and frontcourt are Ronaldinho, Ibrahimovic and Etoo."
"Martin, what do you think about the starting lineup of the two teams?"
Martin Taylor immediately took over the topic, "Yes, I looked at Liverpool's starting lineup. Hamman, the main midfielder, was injured and failed to catch up with this game. This would be a big shortcoming for Liverpool, because we all know that in the middle of last season, when Harman was absent, Liverpool had eleven rounds of defeat."
"Yes, that's right." Andy Gray agreed very much. "Later, after Harman's comeback, Liverpool quickly got out of the downturn and made great contributions to their final entry into the top four in the league."
"Yes, there is also midfielder Gerrard who has not been on the roster. We all know that the media criticized him not long ago, believing that his condition was not stable enough for a long time, his skills were not rising, but his temper was getting bigger and bigger, especially the issue of renewal with the team in recent times has caused a lot of trouble."
"From the arrangement of Hollier's team in this game, he should still resolutely adopt the two-wing style, but we all know that the high center forward Husky on the front line is not very good at scoring, and Irving is relatively short, so I doubt whether the two-wing style can play a role in Liverpool."
"Well, it makes sense," Andy Grey praised.
"As for Chelsea, I think Gao Han's attitude has been very clear from the beginning. He still needs to play passes and controls. Marklele is definitely not the kind of defensive midfielder we imagined with rough foot skills."
"Yes, Zidane said that if Marc Lele was let go, Real Madrid lost a very important goal point in the midfield and backcourt, which shows the technical characteristics of the French midfielder."
"Yes, I personally look forward to the midfield combination of Markle Legal Cogaberon. Now it depends on whether Gao Han can use Peron well and successfully control the ball in the game."
"There is another very noteworthy part of Ronaldinho, Ibrahimovic and Etoo's trident. Gao Han has a very high opinion of these three players. We all know that Gao Han has always been good at exploring talents. He even bets with the British media for his bets for his favorite players, which shows his strong confidence."
"So, we're very much looking forward to seeing Chelsea debut now."
In the live broadcast of the game, the players of the two teams walked into the stadium one after another under the leadership of the referee. There were bursts of cheers coming from the entire Anfield Stadium, with boos mixed in between.
It is obvious that the cheers were given to the home team Liverpool, while the boo was given to Chelsea.
"The two teams have entered the game and the game is about to begin."
"We saw the head coach of the two teams, Gao Han, shake hands with Liverpool's Hollier at the exit of the player channel, but the Liverpool fans at the scene booed enthusiastically."
"Since his debut at Atletico Madrid, Gao Han has maintained a record of winning all the time, which is unprecedented in the history of the European Professional League. Hollier also said at a press conference before the game that defeating Gao Han would make him feel a great honor."
"Now, both teams are ready to go, and we can see whether Hollier can end Gao Han's winning streak, or whether Gao Han led his Chelsea to set sail smoothly."
Chapter completed!
