Hollywood New Century - Chapter 386

London’s winter gives people a very uncomfortable feeling. Well, in fact, Simon has always had a bad impression of London’s rainy climate.

The freckles on the faces of the British are the most serious countries in Europe and the United States, and the traditional baldness of British men; Simon has thought more than once that in addition to the hard water quality, it is estimated that it is the fog and rain in London.

London, City Airport in the South East, where Simon’s private jets land, City Airport, one of London’s five business jet airports, is the closest to central London.

Now that private business jets are being commercialized more and more frequently, in a busy place like London, of course, the airport that stops at will not be a large private airport like London Heathrow. Not only is it inefficient, but it is also difficult to apply and expensive.

As a result, small and medium-sized airports such as London City Airport, Farnborough Airport, and Luton Airport were born with business jets as the mainstay.

The Premier League season is almost halfway through now. West Ham United has 7 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses. The standings and Bolton have the same 26 points, and Bolton ranks 7th in the number of goals.

Manchester United are 11 points away from the top of the table, and Manchester City are also 6 points away from fourth in the table.

In the summer, it cost 200 million euros to sign, and Pegleri’s performance obviously cannot meet the expectations of the fans!

Simon wanted to come back because of the winter signings. The Christmas schedule would have consumed players’ physical strength. Fortunately, West Ham United only plays the League and the League Cup, and the FA Cup will not start until January next year.

In the future, entering the Champions League, that is, the Premier League, the European arena, the FA Cup, and the League Cup.

The thickness of the players should be enough, but it is still a long way to think about it now. What we are striving for now is to achieve good results in the league, at least it is necessary to enter the Champions League.

The news of Simon’s coming to London was quickly leaked by the media.

“The Times”: West Ham’s American young master seems to have discovered that running a football club is not as simple as making a movie!

BBC Sports: Maybe Mr. Simon from the United States is not happy, 200 million euros in exchange for seventh in the league, Manchester City’s fourth place is not bad!

“Sun”: Well, but our Master Simon’s grades are at least better than his American fellow John Henry, Liverpool is only ninth now!

The “Daily Mail” photo has a picture of Simon Parker, and his mental state is not good, so he shared whether Pegleri can still be in charge.

London, Hyde Park, Simon’s luxurious villa, sitting on a chair casually flipping through the newspapers, Simon looked bewildered.

“Now, the media here calls me Master Simon?”

Sarah Bradna, who is now the news presenter of West Ham United, laughed: “It was called that very early, it was the first name of the “Sun”, and then many people in the football circle called it. TV stations and news media are also called on;”

“After all, as a person in Hollywood, there is a lot of news on your body. Haven’t you paid attention to the news here in the United States?”

Simon is stunned, pay attention? There are so many things to do in the United States, how can I pay attention to these gossip news, and to pay attention is also to pay attention to the major events of the club.

“By the way, the team’s performance is still not very good. The media guesses whether you will dismiss the employer’s coach!” Sarah Bradna asked with some doubts.

Simon shook his head and said with a smile: “It’s only been half a season. The team has almost changed a group of new players before. I know it needs to be run in;”

“As for my bad face, that’s because I just came from BJ last night. You took a long flight of seven or eight hours. Are you in good shape?”

“Well, what the team needs now is a stable army, and the club can only win if they are united!” Sarah Bradna said.

“I understand, go to the base!”

West Ham United’s training base is located at the Rush Green Base Training Centre in the east London suburbs.

The Rush Green training base is currently under construction on a large scale, and there are many construction projects involved. Now only half of it has been completed, and the other half will not be completed until May next year.

The current office building is a newly built building, where the offices, reception and R&D centers of staff at all levels are located here.

In the conference room on the second floor, Simon called the team’s head coach Pegleri, CEO Karen Brady, the technical director, the scouting director and the high-level business operations for a meeting.

Simon didn’t speak, watching everyone sitting quietly, the atmosphere was a little depressed. After all, West Ham United has invested too much, and the players’ ability and talent are not bad.

“Okay, everyone won’t say it, I’ll just say it,” Simon broke the silence, looked at the head coach Pegleri, and asked,

“Which positions still need to be strengthened, the winter window will open soon, and then the FA Cup will start, and the depth of the team must also be considered!”

Pegleri let out a sigh of relief, then thought for a while, and said: “We need to strengthen both the front line and the defense. Next year, there will be a multi-line battle mission. After the Christmas schedule, the physical strength of the players will drop significantly. Goalkeeper Neuer is doing very well, but there is still a rotation at the back!”

“I heard Chelsea are poaching Liverpool’s Torres?” Simon asked.

“Yes, because Chelsea’s Roman Abramovich likes it very much and is going all out to poach, the possibility is very high!” Karen Brady was a little surprised,

“Boss, don’t you think so too?”

Torres is a big player in Liverpool. Liverpool definitely don’t want to sell it. Chelsea is poaching at a very high price.

Simon was just looking at some player information collected in his hands, of course, mainly young players and players who fit the position of West Ham United.

“The leading striker of Ajax in the Eredivisie, Luis Suarez, bit someone last month and was suspended for 7 games. Hehe, he should want to come to the Premier League, buy it!” Simon said.

Karen Brady frowned: “This estimate will not be cheap, the estimated price is more than 25 million euros! And we have other competitors.”

Simon didn’t seem to hear it, and continued to look at it, Chelsea training camp striker Daniel Sturridge, a British account book.

“And this, Daniel Sturridge, a local British striker, has a good evaluation. He has no chance to play in Chelsea, and it is no accident that Liverpool can’t keep Torres, and John Henry does not have the courage. When Torres joined Chelsea, Daniel Sturridge doesn’t even have to think about playing, let’s talk!”

Simon said and smiled: “Don’t be discouraged, do your job seriously, Suarez and Sturridge are both forwards, we also have Lukaku, Harry Kane, it should be almost enough to rotate; “

“As for the competition, tell them directly, we at West Ham United are cashing out and delivering the money!”

The power of cash cannot be ignored. Now most clubs must pay in installments. Once the cash comes out, it will be fun. Otherwise, why did West Ham United buy so many promising players in a short period of time in the summer?

Now the European debt crisis, the financial tsunami recovery period, how can the club have so much money?
