On August 7, 1999, the new Premier League season finally started.\\qb5.c0m//
Because there were no major events in 1999. There was neither the World Cup nor the European Cup. Therefore, the Premier League started relatively early.
Su Yun led Sunderland to London.
In the first round of the Premier League, Sunderland will challenge the powerful Chelsea away from home.
Although it was an away game against the powerful Chelsea, Su Yun was not afraid at all. This kind of mentality is very strange.
Just last season, Su Yun was still very nervous when facing strong enemies. But this season has not yet started, and Su Yun can't wait to compete with all the masters. This subtle psychological change is even
Su Yun didn't even feel it himself.
When he stepped onto Stamford Bridge, what Su Yun was thinking about was an inexplicable excitement. If there were no other people around, Su Yun would really want to shout: Come on! Chelsea!
"Hello, Chairman Bates."
During this expedition to London, Murray also came to Stamford Bridge with the team. After Sunderland's results were good, Murray liked to follow the team to away games.
This time is no exception.
After Murray saw Ken Bates in the box, he went over to say hello with a smile on his face.
If it were before, it would definitely not be like this.
After all, although Murray is a billionaire, Sunderland is really an insignificant little player in English football. Compared with English football giants like Bates, they are not on the same level at all.
And Bates has a bad mouth.
You don't care about face at all when you curse.
Murray doesn't like dealing with people like him.
But as Sunderland's performance continues to improve in these two seasons, Murray also wants to make his voice heard in English football.
After all, no one wants to be looked down upon.
Murray is also a billionaire. A billionaire. He has the dignity of a billionaire. Seeing Bates and the bankrupt candy businessman David Dunn when they were ruling the British football world, Murray also felt a little bit.
envious.
It’s just that there were no conditions before.
Murray despised Bates, but actually he envied Bates.
Bates squinted at Murray, who was smiling, with a contemptuous sneer on his lips.
This country bumpkin from the north of England really thought that winning a League Cup was a big deal.
Is the League Cup winner also a champion?
"Tsk tsk! Sunderland spent more than 15 million pounds a season. After spending so much money, if there are no results, it will be in vain. Can Sunderland, a small club, bear such a big loss? Young people
Man, you are taking too many risks."
Bates is like educating his own juniors.
In fact, Bates's net worth may not be higher than that of Murray. But in British football, the two are not on the same level at all.
Bates is a giant in English football.
Not only does it have a very good relationship with the Football Association, but there are also a bunch of younger guys waving the flag and cheering.
But although Murray has been at Sunderland for more than ten years, because Sunderland's performance is so poor, Murray has no say in English football.
Bates not only mocked Sunderland's small club nakedly, he also scolded the juniors and talked about Murray.
Murray was furious. If it had been before, Murray would have swallowed his anger. But now Murray was unwilling.
Compared to Bates, who has a ferocious expression, Murray's expression is always indifferent.
Highly cultivated.
Murray is probably what English people would call a gentleman. Murray is definitely up to standard.
"Chairman Bates, I heard that Chelsea has a lot of debt. They have spent so much money this season. Isn't it a bit excessive? I always think that Chairman Bates' management of Chelsea is a model for running a club. But is it okay to owe so much money?"
Some problems? Can Chelsea afford it?"
Murray seems to be very kind.
In fact, it is ironic that Chelsea currently has a lot of debt.
There are many reasons for Chelsea's debt. The most important one is that it owed money to the bank when it repurchased the Stamford Bridge stadium. Also, in the past few years, Bates has made one big deal after another. Bates is not stingy in the transfer market.
of.
"What is a company without debt? Young people have a lot to learn in the future."
Bates is so angry today.
nǎinǎi.
Murray, a country bumpkin from the northern countryside, dared to show his teeth like this.
I really don’t know whether to live or die.
If you don't give him some color, you really don't know how high the sky is. Do you really think you are a sick cat?
Until Bates left, even far away, Murray still kept smiling.
Although it was a satire on Bates, I admired Bates's courage.
Although Chelsea currently owes a lot of debt, Bates is still a sway in the transfer market. This summer, Premier League teams have invested huge sums of money in the transfer market.
Manchester United's actions are considered small.
After Arsenal sold Anelka, they successively bought the talented French player Thierry Henry, as well as Laurent, Sylvinho and others. Liverpool's Houllier was even more dizzying. The transfers were one after another.
Hyypia was bought for 3 million pounds, Harman was bought for 8 million pounds, Henchoz was bought for 3.5 million pounds, Westerweder was bought for 4 million pounds, and Westerweder was bought for 4.2 million pounds.
Jins Mitchell and so on.
Arsenal and Liverpool spent more than £20 million this summer.
The money spent is not small.
But none of them are as good as Chelsea.
Bates is no mercy at all.
Moreover, the players introduced are all famous players and very strong.
First, he bought Blackburn's high center forward Chris Sutton for 10 million pounds. Chris Sutton was Blackburn's main center when they won the Premier League championship. He is only 26 years old this year and is still in his prime.
After that, Deschamps, the captain of the French national team, was introduced. Needless to say, Deschamps. Although Cantona once laughed at Deschamps for doing dirty work, there is no doubt about Deschamps' strength. In Juventus, he is in the French national team.
It's a barrier.
He also bought Melchiot, a product of Ajax's youth training. Chelsea, which was already strong, has added such a good player, and many media are bullish on Chelsea.
Murray is a little envious of Chelsea.
Look at Chelsea's appeal.
Even Deschamps can bring him in. If it were Sunderland, even if he was given money, Deschamps would not choose Sunderland.
Unlike Murray's self-cultivation, Bates is not a good-tempered person.
After turning around and walking only a few steps, he cursed Murray. "Shit! Murray, a country bumpkin. Winning a League Cup championship is already extremely arrogant. Look how Sunderland will die."
…………
When Su Yun walked out of the players tunnel, he took a long breath.
Su Yun feels that today's weather is particularly good.
Although it is already his fourth year in the UK, Su Yun is instinctively disgusted with the shitty weather in England. Sometimes Su Yun even feels that the sky in England is too short, and the clouds are only a few dozen meters away from his head.
feeling.
And the nasty rain keeps falling all year round.
Su Yun was not used to all this. He even disliked it very much.
It is rare to see such good weather in the first round of the Premier League this season.
Su Yun felt that this was a good sign.
The weather is good and my mood is even better.
Maybe it was because of the weather. I don't know why Su Yun was in such a good mood today.
Vialli felt baffled when he shook hands with Su Yun, because Su Yun was actually very happy, and the smile never left Su Yun's face.
This made Vialli a little angry.
In Vialli's opinion, in such an important strong dialogue, Su Yun was so relaxed and smiled so clearly that he looked down on Chelsea.
Su Yun also dares to look down on Chelsea?
Vialli's face turned ugly as soon as the idea came to him.
Although Chelsea has never won the Premier League title in the past few seasons, even Manchester United and Arsenal dare not say that they can defeat Chelsea when they arrive at Stamford Bridge.
Because Chelsea has always been very strong.
Unexpectedly, he was underestimated by Sunderland.
How could Vialli not be angry?
"Hello everyone. It is the beginning of another year of the Premier League. This is the first round of the Premier League, and the highlight of this round is Chelsea facing Sunderland at home. Both Chelsea and Sunderland are recruiting players this summer.
Ready to show off our skills in the new season.”
"Chelsea, which won the League Cup and Cup Winners' Cup last season, only finished third in the Premier League last season and was completely isolated from other champions. Bates also made great determination to introduce
We have received strong reinforcements such as Sutton, Deschamps and Melchiot just to win the championship in the new season."
"Sunderland, who won the League Cup as a newly promoted team last season, are obviously not satisfied with their current results. They have successively introduced Southgate and Duff, and they are also preparing to show off their talents in the new season."
"We are all looking forward to how these two teams will meet."
The highlight of the game, Martin Taylor and Andy Gray commentate on this game.
"When you see Vialli and Su Yun, you will find that it is really the world of young coaches now."
"Yes. One is 35 years old and the other is 33 years old. They are currently the two youngest coaches in the Premier League."
While Martin Taylor was explaining, the players on both sides were already in position.
"The game is about to start. Let me first introduce to you the lineups of both sides. The goalkeeper of the home team Chelsea is De Houye, and the back line from left to right is Babayaro, Desailly, Leboeuf, and Melchior.
Special. From left to right, the midfielder is Poyet, Wise, Deschamps, and Petrescu, and the striker is Zola and Chris Sutton. Melchiot, Deschamps, who were just introduced this season,
Chris Sutton is all in."
"Look at Sunderland. The goalkeeper is Given, the defense from left to right is Michael Gray, Southgate, Lucas Neal, Danny Mills, and the midfielder from left to right is David
Mean Duff, Robbie Savage, Jack Williams, Boboski, and the forwards are Quinn and Kevin Phillips. Coach Suyun also brought together the two players who just joined Sunderland this season.
Players were put into the lineup."
"The referee's whistle has sounded. Let's look forward to a wonderful game."...)
