Chapter 291 He came with the aura of the Triple Crown!

The 2014 World Cup final was between Germany and Argentina.

In the two semi-finals before that, Argentina defeated the Netherlands on penalty kicks, while Germany defeated Brazil 3:1, a relatively normal score.

In other words, there really was no tragedy of 7:1.

Pan Yi understands that this should be his "contribution" to Brazilian football through time travel.

The ball was indeed lost, but at least we didn't have another day of national humiliation.

In the finals, there was no change in the result.

The two teams played into overtime, and Gotze's goal helped the German team defeat Argentina and win the World Cup.

It was this winning goal that delayed Messi's road to becoming the king for eight years;

It was this winning goal that seemed to sacrifice all Gotze's luck. After that, his competitive level began to be erratic, and his football career also began to decline...

But having said that, Gotze alone can contribute to two famous scenes in football history, so what is there to regret?

Oh, the first famous scene is when he beat Argentina. What is the second famous scene?

Of course it’s the photo of him hugging his beloved wife and unable to control himself!

After the German team won the championship, head coach Loew said after the game that he had learned a lot from Pan Yi during his previous visit to the team in Hamburg.

Pan Yi also gave a lot of professional advice, including in the selection of the German competition lineup.

Therefore, Loew expressed his sincere gratitude to Pan Yi!

——

Just a few days after the World Cup ended, there were several consecutive pieces of blockbuster news that detonated the world football world.

First, Real Madrid spent 80 million euros to sign Colombian star James Rodriguez from Monaco!

In this World Cup, Ronaldo scored 6 goals, won the Golden Boot, and led the Colombian team to the quarterfinals of the World Cup.

Such a good performance, coupled with his extremely good looks, made Real Madrid unable to help but take action.

And with such a high price, it’s not even the top bid this summer.

As if to compete with Real Madrid, Barcelona also officially announced the introduction of Uruguayan striker Suarez from Liverpool, with a transfer fee of up to 81 million euros!

As a result, Barcelona's new forward combination MSN, which can compete with Real Madrid, has also been formed.

However, compared with the following piece of news, the two pieces of player transfer information above are a little dull.

That is, Chelsea officially announced that Pan Yi, coach of the Dragon Kingdom who just led Hamburg to win the Triple Crown last season, will officially take charge of Stamford Bridge!

This also declares that the battle for the most high-profile coach in the world has come to an end in the past two months.

Of course, this news alone is not exciting enough.

According to well-informed sources, Chelsea actually offered a sky-high annual salary of 20 million euros in order to win Pan Yi's joining!

This is already the highest salary in the world among coaches.

Even if all players are included, it is actually lower than a few people such as Messi and Ronaldo.

Therefore, when Chelsea announced that they would hold a grand signing ceremony at Stamford Bridge, the press conference room was packed with reporters from all the media present!

In fact, the ceremony itself was very simple. Chelsea Chairman Bruce Buck and CEO Ron Gurlay accompanied Pan Yi to sign a contract that had already been drafted and allowed reporters to take photos.

After a few simple gestures and a few more "papapapa" sounds, the signing ceremony was over.

Pan Yi has officially become Chelsea’s new head coach!

Then comes the part that these swarming media from around the world are most concerned about: the press conference!

Just labels like "Treble-winning coach switches to Chelsea" and "World's highest paid" have caused an explosion of traffic.

Not to mention, the head coach Pan Yi succeeded is himself the "traffic king" Mourinho!

Media reporters have already prepared a lot of questions to ask this young coach from the Dragon Country. Of course, they also hope that he can say something surprising, just like Mourinho did when he first came to Stamford Bridge.

Therefore, when Pan Yi walked into the press conference hall, various long guns and short cannons had already been set up, and the muzzles of the cannons were aimed at the middle position of the podium.

As soon as Pan Yi sat down, there was another burst of flashing lights, and then a reporter from "Bild" stood up and asked:

"Is it because you left the Bundesliga and went to the Premier League because the money here is more? I understand you want a new challenge, but why not go to Bayern Munich?"

This is obviously a German reporter with a bit of resentment.

After all, Pan Yi's two years in Hamburg objectively brought more exposure to the Bundesliga, and even helped the German team's performance in the World Cup to a certain extent.

Many German journalists already regard Pan Yi as "one of their own", but to go to the UK, which they have always disliked, inevitably makes them feel uncomfortable.

So as soon as he came up, Pan Yi faced such a rather acute problem.

And Pan Yi was already prepared and said with a slight smile:

"This may be because my definition of challenge is different from your definition."

"Challenging new leagues, new opponents, including challenging the highest salary in the world, this is what I like."

"I mean no disrespect to Guardiola or Bayern, but leading a team like Bayern to dominate the Bundesliga is not part of my definition of challenge."

"I am a professional coach. Chelsea Club is willing to give me the highest salary in the world, which shows that they recognize my value. And I will prove that I have this value in the next season."

As soon as Pan Yi finished speaking, there was a round of applause.

His answer was neither arrogant nor humble. He easily resolved the German reporter's questions and showed his determination. It was really a textbook template.

"Do you think there is any difference from the Bundesliga to the Premier League?" Then it was a reporter from the "Manchester Evening News".

"There is a difference, but there is no difference." Pan Yi replied easily:

"The difference is that the Premier League may be the most difficult league in the world today. There are more strong teams here and the competition is more intense. Whether it is Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool or Arsenal, they all have countless talented players."

"Thanks to the Premier League's good financial revenue and the club's large-scale investment, the mid- and lower-tier teams in the Premier League are also very strong, so I am looking forward to the new season here."

"And what I said is that there is no difference..."

"Anyway, I also defeated the Premier League champion Manchester City when I was in Hamburg, and I also defeated strong teams like Arsenal when I was in Milan, so the Premier League team is nothing special to me."

"When I come to Chelsea now, I will still beat them and then win the final championship!"

The reporters present all looked at each other.

It is indeed Pan Yi.

On the first day after arriving at Chelsea, he shouted the slogan of winning the championship.

Although Chelsea's lineup is indeed very good, he himself said that there are many strong teams in the Premier League, is he really so sure that he can win the championship?

"The current Chelsea lineup was basically created by Mourinho. Will you make drastic changes to it?" This is a local reporter in London.

"If you're talking about playing style, obviously he and I are not on the same path." Pan Yi replied:

"Mourinho prefers defensive counterattack tactics, and I will continue to use my offensive style."

"I can't tell you yet what kind of tactics I will focus on at Chelsea, but it will definitely be different from what I used in Hamburg."

The London reporter asked: "Does that mean you will drastically purge players? Four veterans including Lampard have expired and left the team. Will you make big purchases in the transfer market next?"

Pan Yi replied: "I will only decide whether a player will stay based on whether he can meet my tactical needs. There is no purging."

"Among the players whose contracts have expired, I found that only captain Terry can still meet the needs of my current team, and he can still play an important role, so I chose to renew his contract, and that's it."

"Moreover, I will retain most of the players in Chelsea's current first team and will not let them leave."

"As for operations in the transfer market, there will be. To be honest, the generosity of the club owner Mr. Abramovich surprised me. I doubt that even if I proposed to buy Messi or Ronaldo, he would agree without hesitation.

"

At this point, everyone in the press room laughed.

The good guy actually asked: "So, will you go to Barcelona or Real Madrid to buy them?"

"No." Pan Yi replied simply:

"Although Mr. Abu is indeed very rich, I don't want to spend it like this."

"On the contrary, I may not buy too many people or spend too much money in the transfer market this season."

"I will only make targeted reinforcements in some key positions, and in other positions, I will choose to dig internally."

"Chelsea has too many talent reserves! Whether it is young players on loan or youth team players, I am willing to give them more opportunities."

What Pan Yi said made the reporters present feel very surprised.

Everyone knows that Chelsea Club has money and Abramovich has money.

Now that they have hired Pan Yi with the highest salary in the world, they must have given him a sufficient transfer budget to disrupt the entire market this summer.

Just like what Pan Yi joked about Messi and Ronaldo, if they really implement it, there is even a certain chance that it will come true!

No one dares to doubt Abramovich’s funds and love for football!

But now Pan Yi says he wants to focus on developing young players for his team?

If it were a team like Manchester United or Liverpool, which has always paid more attention to its youth training players, everyone would understand.
