Chapter 416 People's hearts are a big problem
Compared with German football, the stock market reacted earlier. After the news was announced, Dortmund's stock soared 5% within 12 minutes. Deutsche Bank's stock analysts also raised Dortmund's rating from "hold" to "buy".
Most investors believe that this new contract means that Li Qiao will stay in Dortmund forever, because no one thinks that Dortmund will win the Champions League next season, which means that Li Qiao will complete his first contract until 2018, and if the contract is renewed for another 4 years, then Li Qiao will be 28 years old, which means that the golden time of Li Qiao's career has been given to Dortmund.
Club management is different from other companies. For a club, players are the most important thing, and the owner is second.
Although the outside world has noticed that the re-signing of the club also paid a price, an annual salary of 700 million, but what you need to know is that within 5 minutes, Dortmund's market value has increased by tens of millions of euros, so fools will forget this account.
Different from the stock market where money is paramount, people in the football circle pay more attention to football. The famous former Dortmund coach "Heathfield" is very optimistic about Li Qiao's long-term stay in Dortmund.
However, the former Dortmund star and German international "Metzelder" said that the club broke the rules by doing so. "The resurgence of the club in recent years lies in Zorc's ability to manage the money bag and implement a strict financial system. If a player is given a salary increase, what will other people think? Will they also ask for a salary increase? If they all raise salaries, then the club will inevitably repeat the old path of bankruptcy. If not, then people will be unstable."
In addition, another Dortmund star "Frings" also agreed with "Metzelder"'s point of view, "They are also players. When I was an athlete, what I cared most was whether I could be treated fairly by the club."
Different from the attitude of big shots, most Dortmund fans support Li Qiao one-sidedly. To be honest, Germany has changed now. Think about Guardiola’s salary of a head coach exceeding 1000 million euros.
For this reason, many bars in Dortmund hung three flags-the German flag, the Dortmund team flag, and the Chinese flag, and used such actions to support the club's decision.
But if you think that things are so simple, then you are wrong. Klopp and Zorc both understand that there must be some people who are dissatisfied, and there are quite a few. What's worse, this kind of dissatisfaction is in the heart, and it is likely to turn into resentment towards the club in the end.
In fact, running a club also requires superb political skills. Yes, you heard me right, where there are people, there is politics.
Zorc handed over the task of comforting people to Klopp. Although the latter felt that it was difficult to handle, he could only bite the bullet. After all, this is indeed Klopp's job.
*****
At the end of training the next day, Klopp asked the players to sit on the floor and form a circle around him.
"Have you read the news?"
"Look, the floods in Romania have done a lot of damage," Hummels said.
"Fuck you, you know what I mean",
Everyone laughed, it seems that the sloppy eye is not over. In fact, everyone wants to talk about money, but they are too embarrassed to talk about it. The only way is to play dumb.
Although Klopp had made it very clear, everyone looked down at the lawn and remained silent.
"As for Li Qiao's matter, I suggest that Li Qiao treat guests," Jing Duoan said.
Everyone booed for a while and echoed Gundogan, but Klopp didn't laugh. He knew that the key to managing a team is not to make people afraid of you, but to make people convince you.
"You little Turkish monkey knows how to mess around," Klopp said.
Gundogan sticks out his tongue and apologizes.
"Let me say it one last time. If you are not convinced by the club's salary increase for Li Qiao, you can raise your hand and tell me now."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone looked at me and I looked at you. No one raised their hands. Klopp looked at the players. He had predicted the situation before him. Klopp snapped his fingers to signal the assistants outside the field to come in.
The players turned to see the assistant coach holding a stack of tablets.
"Send them one by one," Klopp said.
After a while, the players each had a tablet, but everyone still didn't know what Klopp wanted to do.
"Open the above PPT file",
According to what Klopp said, the players opened the files on the tablet one after another. Pages of data flashed in front of their eyes. They were some data of Li Qiao’s average per game this season-ball possession rate, pass success rate, etc., and the second part was Li Qiao’s performance in several key games of this season-Rurderby, Clasico, and Champions League.
The last part is the average data of players who have entered the big list more than 20 times in the team (the data of players who basically do not make the big list are meaningless).
"I will lend you this tablet for one night. When you go back, you can compare your contributions to the team with Li Qiao's. If you feel that your contribution to the club is higher than Li Qiao's, then go to Zorc's office at this time tomorrow to discuss salary increases."
After speaking, Klopp pointed to the location of Zorc's office.
As soon as Klopp finished speaking, Gundogan threw the tablet on the lawn, and then raised his right hand, "We are convinced, but the treats must not be less."
As soon as Gundogan took the lead, the others booed and joined in one after another, raising their hands and shouting: "Please, please, please...".
Klopp was also happy, he knew it was done, so he said to Li Qiao: "Then it seems that I have nothing to do here, I leave it to you, Joe".
Everyone was originally surrounded by Klopp. As soon as Klopp left, everyone turned around Li Qiao. Li Qiao was arched and couldn't help it. He said: "Ok, okay, but can you not treat me to Chinese food this time?"
"Then what to eat?"
Li Qiao thought for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Gundogan, "Turkey is also the world's three major food kingdoms, let's go to a Turkish restaurant this time."
Think about it, everyone, anyway, as long as it’s not German food, I’m already tired of eating that stuff.
Gundogan recommended an authentic Turkish restaurant, more than 20 people ate, and Li Qiao spent a lot of money, but in short, a crisis of unity within the team finally passed.
*****
After Anne, it's time for Klopp to fight outsiders. There are two rounds left in the league, and Dortmund is the biggest favorite to win the championship. They only need to win both games, and then the Bundesliga champion this season will belong to Dortmund.
The last two opponents of Dortmund are "Wolfsburg" and "Bremen". The last opponent is easy to deal with.
After 32 rounds, Dortmund and Bayern both have 75 points. Wolfsburg ranks third with 66 points, and Leverkusen ranks fourth with 63 points. Although Wolfsburg is no longer able to compete for the championship, they have to keep the third place in the league.
Under normal circumstances, the play-off teams from the five major leagues will encounter relatively weak opponents, such as Norway and Belarus, but theoretically speaking, they may also encounter teams from Ukraine and Turkey, which will be stronger, so to be on the safe side, no one wants to play in the play-offs.
The Munich media had high hopes for this game. The "Munich Daily" praised Wolfsburg's head coach "Black Gold" to the sky. He is a tactical master, a conductor on the football field, and even said that he is the best candidate to succeed Loew in the future and join the German national team.
In addition, there are two former Bayern players in the Wolfsburg team, the Brazilian "Gustavo" and the Croatian "Olic". The Munich media hope that "Gustavo" can also help the team on another front. I wonder how Gustavo felt when he saw these remarks?It is estimated that there are three lines on the forehead, and he yelled: "Why?"
Dortmund is very cautious. Klopp knows the temper of the Germans. With a dead-headed temper, it is absolutely impossible to do anything convenient. Wolfsburg is likely to be the last stumbling block on Dortmund's way to win the championship.
Take a look at the lineup configuration of Wolfsburg, they are definitely the strongest team in the Bundesliga besides Bayern and Dortmund. Of course, this refers to the current lineup.
In recent years, the boss of Wolfsburg has been relentless in spending money. He has introduced "De Bruyne" and "Schuerle" from Chelsea, "Perisic" from Dortmund, and "Gustavo" from Bayern. The cost is between 1 million and 2 million euros.
During the meeting before the game, Klopp said to the players: "Wolfsburg is no easier to deal with than Bayern, but the team has no retreat in this game, 3 points, only 3 points, and other results are failures."
The good news is that this game is not the Champions League, so Hummels can play, and because he did not participate in the midweek game against Barcelona, Hummels' physical fitness may be the best in the team.
In the end, Klopp said earnestly: "Maybe some people think that the runner-up is also acceptable, but what I want to tell you is that the runner-up just looks beautiful. After 5 years, no one will remember you."
"Think about it, when you are 60 years old, sitting in your backyard with your grandson in your arms, and you tell your grandson that your grandfather once won the Bundesliga runner-up, your grandson will probably give you a blank stare and tell you that Schalke 04 has also won that thing."
Everyone laughed.
"If you tell your grandson that grandpa won the Bundesliga championship that year, I think he will compare this to you," Klopp gave everyone a thumbs up after finishing speaking.
