The fans sitting next to Lister all chanted along with the commentator... Among the entire stands, Lister was the only one sitting there with a smile on his face as he watched Preston win again.
When Lister recommended Redknapp to Daniel Levy, he suddenly thought of the best way to gain a foothold in England. Although Lister exported many players to England, the players alone were not enough.
To truly establish a foothold in English football. Because those players are all foreign players, it will take time to rely on them to establish a foothold in English football. List needs a way to truly establish a foothold.
There are only a few best ways to gain a foothold in English football. One is to have absolute connections like Michael Williams. Everyone in English football, from the Football Association leaders to the senior leaders of major clubs, is very familiar with him.
The connections in the football world are no worse than those of Stretford, the current number one agent in England. If Michael Williams were not so greedy for petty gains and acted more generously, he would definitely not be as successful as he is now. Sometimes Lister really doubts, Michael
.How did Williams become a senior executive in business promotion in so many companies?
It's just that Lister is not as good as Michael Williams and Stretford. Because they have been operating in English football for 20 years, this kind of network is not something Lister can match.
The other one is to intervene in the club's buying and selling, like Pini Zahavi. Pini Zahavi is not the only one in European football, but he is also one of the few agents who participates in the club's buying and selling. Like Abramo later
Vic took over Chelsea, Gaedmark purchased Portsmouth, and M private consortium purchased West Ham United. Zahavi was the one who pulled the strings behind the scenes.
But this skill of Pini Zahavi is really not something that ordinary agents can learn, including List. Because Pini Zahavi has the support of the Jewish wealthy circle, he is able to do so with ease. Like Gade
Mark's father is an old friend of Zahavi's. His father, Arkady Gaedmark, also became rich by selling off state-owned assets after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The French government at that time also suspected that he was laundering money, so he moved to Israel.
, with a net worth of more than 500 million pounds. After arriving in Israel, he purchased the Israeli club Beitar Jerusalem, which was brokered by Zahavi.
It is precisely because of Zahavi's connections that he was able to intervene in the club's transfer. Only Zahavi, it is impossible for others. Even if List starts to do things now, he can't compare to Zahavi.
Another way is to rely on local English stars. Like Beckham, Owen, Gerrard, these local stars with extremely strong appeal can be accepted by English football in a short period of time. But Lister
As an outsider, it is difficult to get the support of some conservative English stars. And it is impossible for Lister to take away those famous English stars.
The last way is the best and shortest way. That way is of course to choose a British coach. Because the coach is a very powerful position in English football, and if you get an excellent coach,
You can control the team's transfer market with this coach. After all, in English football, the head coach has more say in the transfer market than the club general manager. Once you capture a head coach, you can not only
Mastering the transfer market can also recruit local English stars. After all, there are very few real agents in British football who can influence the club's transfer market like Arsenal's Jerome Anderson.
The only option available to List is the last one. List has screened many coaches in England, but the number of coaches for List to choose from is extremely limited. This is because most of the local coaches in England already have their own connections and do not need List.
At the beginning, Lister was most optimistic about Sunderland's head coach Peter Reed, because his ability is still very good. In addition, he and Sunderland still have cooperation.
It's a pity that since Lister had a conflict with Stretford, this has become impossible. Because Peter Reid and Stretford are in a cooperative relationship, Peter Reid did not suppress Lister's two
The players have already given a lot of face. Of course, Gilberto Silva and Senna also performed well. The important thing is that they spent a lot of money, and Peter Reed couldn't suppress them.
This is the strength of Stretford. When he is dissatisfied with List, List has very few options in English football. Because currently half of the head coaches in the Premier League have a cooperative relationship with Stretford
, half of the remaining half have a good relationship with him. The remaining half, that is, a quarter of the head coaches, are big-name coaches like Ferguson and Wenger. This has led to Riester being able to contact
The number of head coaches is very small, and the number of clubs that can be cooperated with is also very small.
So Lister finally fell in love with the young coach who is still at Preston, David Moyes, who is currently only 37 years old. Speaking of the great coaches in later generations, Benitez, who is not the most famous, is Real Madrid.
Origin. One of the reasons why he was able to fight repeatedly in Spanish football and still have clubs inviting him was because of the connections he left behind at Real Madrid.
There is also Mourinho, although many people only say that he is a translator. But the person Mourinho translated was the famous Bobby Robson. Mourinho has also been an assistant coach in Barcelona for a long time.
He comes from a famous family. Let’s talk about Guardiola, he has a well-established background in Barcelona.
But David Moyes is different. He wandered around in some lower leagues in England and finally retired at Preston. At the age of thirty-four, he became the head coach of Preston and performed well at Preston.
, brought a team that was in the relegation circle of England's third tier to a strong team in England's second tier. Now Preston can qualify for the Premier League play-offs. So he is just over 37 years old.
David Moyes is a very popular young coach in English football.
"Hello, Mr. Cherny."
David Moyes was dressed very formally, with a red and white tie. He did not expect to receive a call from Lister. After Lister introduced himself, David Moyes did not even react.
David Moyes has been coaching in the lower leagues of England, and Lister has just started to enter English football this season, so David Moyes is not very familiar with Lister. Lister himself rarely appears in the media
But after answering the phone, David Moyes immediately investigated.
For an agent of the level of Lister Cherney, even if he does not appear in front of the media, it is easy to get some information. David Moyes was very surprised when he found Lister's information, because at this time
The strength shown by Lister on the surface is already amazing. But David Moyes doesn't know why Lister is looking for him.
"Hello, Coach Moyes."
Compared with local English coaches, Scottish coaches have made the greatest contribution to the development of British football. Several great head coaches in the history of British football are Scottish coaches. From Chapman who created the Arsenal dynasty to creating the history of Manchester United
Busby, who reached the first peak, Shankly, who created the Liverpool dynasty, and Sir Alex Ferguson, the godfather of Manchester United, are all Scottish coaches.
In addition to their well-known names, there are also people like Dalglish, Graham, Coyle, McLeish and David Moyes in front of them. The level and performance of these Scottish coaches completely surpass the English coaches. They are very good at
The contribution of English football, or European football, definitely exceeds that of all agents.
Let’s talk about the Moyes in front of us. In Lester’s previous life, it happened to be the winter of 2013. At that time, because Moyes’s initial performance at Manchester United was very poor, many people criticized his level. Especially under the leadership of his successor Martin.
After Ness's performance at Everton was good, many people thought that Moyes was nothing more than that. They thought that Moyes' performance at Everton was not that good. Martinez did better than Moyes. But this is definitely
It's not objective.
I won't comment on Moyes' performance at Manchester United. In fact, Martinez's performance at Everton is not much better than Moyes. Because when Moyes was at Everton, he also created a record of ranking first in the Premier League after seventeen rounds.
Excellent results in second place. At Everton, Moyes finished fourth once, fifth twice, sixth twice, and seventh three times.
However, Everton's investment is far less than that of other clubs, ranking behind in the Premier League. In the ten years from 2002 to 2012, it spent a total of 130 million pounds in the transfer market, with almost only one player in each season.
Thirteen million pounds. Even a club like West Ham United, which has been in the English Championship for two years in this decade, has a transfer fee of 120 million pounds.
Although Lister did not see the final results of Martinez's Everton, ranking fifth at the end of the 18th round of the Premier League cannot be said to have surpassed Moyes. Because behind Everton are Newcastle, Manchester United,
There is only one goal difference between strong teams like Tottenham. Given the thickness of Everton's lineup, it is really not certain where they will be ranked at the end of the season. Everton can maintain fifth place, and sixth place is considered Martin.
Ness is doing well. Such results are really no better than Moyes.
"Mr. Moyes, I believe you already know who I am. I am an agent and own a sports agency. I have more than 260 players and three coaches under my management. Several representatives have the last name
I believe you know the players. Lazio's Pavel Nedved, Barcelona's Boboski, Valencia's Jankoler and Vicente, and Manchester United's Ruud van Nistelrooy are all my players. There was also a lot of hype some time ago.
Rosicky is also my player."
David Moyes didn't speak, but he was shocked. Although he had looked for information on List, but because he didn't have much time and the information he collected was limited, he didn't expect that List would have so many big-name players.
Among the information he found, the only one that mentioned the most was that List was the number one agent in the Czech Republic and owned Czech superstars such as Bobowski and Nedvěd. Only now did he know that List also owned Ruud van Nistelrooy and Wiesen.
Specially these Dutch players and Spanish players.
"Not to mention the players, I have a coach that you must know. Valencia's Coach Benitez, I have been working with him for four years. Coach Moyes, the cooperation with Coach Benitez has made me
I have accumulated enough experience and know how to cooperate with coaches. After I choose a coach, I will not let my coach buy my players because of the small profits in front of me. On the contrary, my approach is to do everything in my ability to help my coach.
Success, just like Rafael Benitez now."
David Moyes was silent, so Rist introduced himself without pausing at all: "Because I believe that only if my coach succeeds, he will be able to give me adequate rewards in the future. Coach Moyes, I am very
I appreciate you. If you are willing to let me be your agent, I will let you share my player information. At that time, you can freely choose the players you like in my player information, which can be my players or
It can be someone else's player. I believe my player information is more complete than Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United, and Arsenal's player information. I can share this information and information with you. Let's cooperate."
Riester had already extended an olive branch, but David Moyes did not express his stance immediately, but remained silent for a long time. Riester did not urge him, but waited quietly. Although Moyes is only thirty-seven years old,
But he himself is very opinionated. Because of his outstanding performance at Preston, Moyes has successfully attracted the attention of some Premier League clubs. Although they are all small clubs, they also show that he has three talents in Preston.
Years of coaching have been successful.
However, he declined invitations from some Premier League teams in the summer because Moyes believed that the development of those clubs was limited and could not allow him to fulfill his ambitions. Moyes chose his future very carefully. He only needs to find the club that suits him best.
.
Moyes would never choose the club he coaches at will, nor would he choose his agent at will. After waiting for almost ten minutes, Moyes raised his head and asked Liester: "If Mr. Cherney
Find me a club that suits me, and what kind of club will you choose?"
Lister knew that this was Moyes testing himself and whether the two people's ideas were consistent. Lister smiled slightly, because Lister understood Moyes' subsequent choice. Even Moyes himself said why he chose Evers.
Suddenly, Lister quickly replied: "Coach Moyes, you are young now. Although you have Preston's success, you still have no weight in the eyes of the big Premier League clubs. So don't expect to go to a rich club, just be strong."
Teams such as Chelsea, Tottenham, Newcastle United, and Villa are too difficult to fill positions. They have no strength but require results. Moreover, none of their bosses are very patient. Each one is weirder than the other, and they are too busy to serve.
It’s difficult. The club you should go to now has an owner who is very patient and will not interfere with the team’s affairs. In this way, there are three clubs that are most suitable for you.”
"Which three?"
Moyes was also suddenly interested. In fact, Moyes didn't think about it carefully, he only had some vague ideas. Lister smiled and said: "The first club is Everton. Everton is a traditional strong team in England, but
It has been in decline for many years. Although their board of directors is a group of misers, they will fully trust their head coach. After all, Everton is a traditional strong team and has a natural advantage in attractiveness, and the strength of their team is not
It’s considered very poor, but the foundation is still very good.”
Moyes nodded involuntarily after listening to Lister's words. Indeed, Everton is a club that Moyes has always been interested in. Moyes believes that Everton has a good foundation, but poor results.
"The second club is Sunderland. I have contact with Sunderland. Sunderland's Gilberto Silva and Senna are my players. Sunderland's chairman Murray is a very knowledgeable person.
He has money and is willing to invest money. The important thing is that he will not interfere in the team's internal affairs casually. When Peter Reid led Sunderland to relegation, Murray also gave him full trust. He is a good boss.
However, Sunderland also has a lot of problems. Peter Reid has been in Sunderland for too long, and Sunderland has already had his mark. Furthermore, Sunderland has always designed tactics around Quinn, but Quinn
I have reached the age of retirement. Of course, this is a tactical issue that should be solved by the head coach."
When Lister said this, Moyes listened very carefully because he saw that Lister had really studied the major clubs in the Premier League.
"The third company is Middlesbrough. Although I have not met the owner of Middlesbrough in person, I heard that the owner of Middlesbrough is very generous. In the past seven years, he has invested more than 70 million pounds, and he has never
Interfering in the internal affairs of the team. Even every time Robson's performance was not good, he would come out to support Robson. This person has money, is willing to spend money, and knows how to respect the coach. Robson bought it at Middlesbrough
Their boss can tolerate so many parallel imports, so he should be said to be a very good club president."
"In the current Premier League, I think these three clubs are the most suitable for your development. Other teams like Southampton and Bolton have no development prospects. If you choose a club, choose from the three clubs I mentioned.
choose."
Moyes was indeed very interested when he heard this. Because what Rist chose was completely in line with Moyes' ideas and conditions. So he stood up and said: "Mr. Cherney, can we talk about it in detail?"
