Chapter 59

Today’s information

[Brian Nichols thinks that Song Jae-jin’s ability is not worth being an agent alone.]

[Arsenal FC –30%

West Ham United FC +28%



Newcastle United FC +25%

Leeds United FC +19%]

As a result of using the skill, West Ham had the highest value change when Brian Nichols went to each team at 28%.

‘It would be better to dig into these four clubs only.’

Skill told me that the value would go up or down that much if I went to that club, but I couldn’t explain to manager Brian Nichols that West Ham is the team that can increase your value the most without any basis.

[Please ask for information about Arsenal, West Ham, Newcastle, and Leeds clubs.]

Jaejin, who requested the WSG for lack of club information by e-mail, soon began to delve into the player he was most confident in.

‘The hallmark of Brian’s tactics is flexibility.’

Each coach had a preferred formation or tactic.

But Bryan Nichols has always been flexible in crafting tactics to suit his opponents.

He has the formation he mainly uses, but the positions and movements of the players in it are literally inexhaustible.

Typically, he was a manager who often showed how to understand players well and not set limits, such as using a defender’s midfielder or midfielder’s defender.

‘Minimization of board intervention. The transfer market delegation is something to negotiate with the club.’

It certainly wasn’t easy.

It was because Brian Nichols was a manager with an old style that was different from the direction pursued by modern football.

Anyway, analyzing the video of the players from the four teams was not an ordinary amount, so Jaejin purchased the intermediate multitasking skill and played the video of each player on two monitors.

“I will be dead in a week.”

“Aren’t you supposed to go to your hospital first?”

The day I promised with Brian Nichols.

Brian Nichols saw Jae-jin’s gossip who came to the meeting place and he felt like he had committed a crime.

“You can take it as a sign of how much effort you put in.”

Jaejin sips the coffee in front of her with a sigh, and presents the prepared material.

“This is the first team we picked. The top 4 teams take the 1st place. Below that is the 2nd and 3rd places. And the second division was excluded.”

Brian burst into laughter when he saw the EPL team ranked first.

“You seem convinced that I will stay in the Premier League.”

“Yeah. I’m sure. The Brian Nichols I know isn’t the type of person who would go out of Chelsea like that and go to another league.”

There have been several instances in the past similar to the present.

He transfers to the rival team of the team that kicked him out and fucks that team.

“The first pass.”

Soon after, the second page was turned and the four EPL teams were in order.

“The team I recommend the most is Newcastle.”

“Newcastle?”

Jaejin’s choice was Newcastle United FC with the second most changeable system shown.

“Yeah. Newcastle United FC. Second is West Ham United. Arsenal would not recommend it. It would probably never be good to go to Arsenal under the current circumstances.”

“What is the basis for that?”

Brian didn’t like Newcastle, probably because he was swayed by a director who was already carrying the wealthy owner on his back.

“It has been 10 years since King Mohammed bin Salman took over Newcastle in 2020. Since then, Newcastle have won the League Cup or FA Cup, but not the Premier League or Champions League.”

King Mohammed bin Salman, who is often referred to on the Internet as being ten times richer than Mansour, acquired Newcastle through Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund.

And their goal is to build the Newcastle dynasty. However, 10 years later, although they are in the top position every year, they have been stuck every time and have not been able to lift the most important trophy.

“That’s why it’s the team with the strongest aspiration to win. Even though I spent more money than I expected, I couldn’t win.”

“Ugh. That said, wouldn’t the board’s interference be that severe?”

“It is, but I think that is something that can be negotiated through negotiation. As a result of requesting information from WSG, the owner’s intervention was on the weak side.”

In recent years, each football club has been showing a distinction between the roles of the manager and the board.

The so-called football director is responsible for signing and releasing players.

And it was a way for the manager to focus on the stadium and training ground, thinking about how to manage the players the director signed, how to combine them, and what training and tactics to implement.

And Brian experienced frequent friction with the board in this situation.

Chelsea’s case this time was a case of friction by signing players that fit the board’s taste but did not match the manager’s tendencies.

“If there is little club interference, then Newcastle is definitely a good club.”

And Jaejin flipped the tablet screen.

“And the second reason is the composition of the squad.”

Brian Nichols asked Jaejin seriously.

“Oh my gosh. Why are you an agent?”

“Yeah?”

“I’m not joking, don’t you want to quit your agent right now and come under me?”

The data of the team that I lightly glanced at were imaginary and were not of high quality that could come out in a short period of time.

“no. To be honest, when Alex introduced it, I thought it wasn’t too bad, but it’s not bad, it’s beyond my imagination.”

It was not something anyone could do to accurately and systematically grasp the strengths and weaknesses of a player in such a short time.

‘A player’s analysis ability like this will definitely help me.’

Jaejin burst out a satisfied laugh at Brian’s praises, which stuck out his tongue.

“Let’s talk about that later. From my point of view, you are a talent that only an agent is worth.”

“haha. I would like to ask if I can work for the club any time.”

“By the way, Newcastle’s discretion and the team alone would not have made the choice. What other reasons are there?”

“You got it right. After all, it’s because the team is the youngest and has the best composition.”

It was judged that older players are highly likely to rebel due to the manager’s tendency to constantly bully players while being treated like a geek like Brian Nichols.

Under such circumstances, the average age of Newcastle players was quite young at 25, and at the same time, there were many active players.

In this situation, I thought that there is a high possibility that Brian would wear his own color without experiencing friction with the players like Chelsea did.

‘Personally, I thought West Ham was the most appropriate.’

As coach Brian Nichols listened to the explanation, he carefully read each player’s data that Jae-jin had organized.

The most important thing I thought about was friction with the board or the owner,

After he joined the team, he had no idea what kind of players there were.

He only thought of recruiting players in insufficient positions after he entered the team.

In that sense, this briefing reminded him of something he hadn’t even thought of.

“What do you think, Director Brian?”

“Good. very good. To be honest, I was only thinking about West Ham. I know the board has little influence. But, as you say, Newcastle is the best team if the board guarantees it.”

“That’s the agent’s realm. Then we will negotiate with Newcastle on the basics.”

“It’s okay. But is the club trying to give you all the rights?”

“Obviously, you wouldn’t want to. you know best The trend of clubs these days is that they recruit players they want from the board like in MLB, and the manager operates tactics accordingly.”

“Ts. I don’t like it. You can implement the tactics you think of only when you sign the players the coach wants.”

“So I plan to present it in stages. I’ll show you the results, so yield accordingly. It’s like this.”

Brian Nichols, who listened to Jaejin’s explanation, agreed as it was within the range that he could understand if it was just as he said.

“And personally, I would like to finish the negotiations as soon as possible and take over the team. Because the season has already started. Wouldn’t that be good for each other?”

“He also prepared for it.”

The same confident answer as when he first met.

However, unlike the time when he was doubtful, Nichols had an expression full of anticipation.

“Okay, I’ll trust you completely this time!”

Unlike the transfer of players, the transfer of the manager who will run the club in the future was an important issue and problem.

Therefore, in the case of a manager’s contract, when the agent arranges a meeting, the manager and the owner or agent meet and talk in person, and only after that, in many cases, the details are coordinated and the contract is signed.

“Nice to meet you. I am Song Jae-jin, the agent of director Brian Nichols.”

“You are a famous agent in the industry these days. I have heard the rumors.”

Jaejin, who shook hands with a man in the center of a luxurious office, was deeply surprised by the unexpected person.

‘I heard that Chairman Yasir al-Lumaan is coming in person.’

Even at Newcastle’s first negotiating table.

‘There’s the chief executive officer, the chief operating officer. Besides, a lawyer? I must be a little nervous.’

Today, I thought it was just a presentation of the doctor, but Jae-jin heightened the tension by the splendid side of the board at the negotiating table.

“If I had known that the people in charge of the entire club were coming today, I would have been seated with manager Brian Nichols.”

“haha. You don’t have to feel so burdened. As I said, today is the right place to check each other’s needs.”

In response, Jaejin smiled lightly.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Then can Newcastle hear what Brian wants?”

The polite greeting was enough, so Jaejin brought up the main topic right away.

“We won the league in three years. And we want to keep performing in the Champions League.”

After Mansour took over Manchester City in August 2008, his first league title was 11-12 seasons, and a Champions League win would not have been possible until more than a decade later.

That said, lifting the Champions League trophy is not an easy task.

“Then, are you saying that you will give me enough investment and enough authority?”

“In terms of investment, there is no problem. However, the standard for that authority must be clearly defined.”

“I want the full ticket. About recruiting and recruiting players.”

“Hmm.”

It was a requirement that I had expected well enough because I already knew through the information network what situation Brian Nichols was in and how he was sacked at Chelsea.

“But you know it’s not easy, right? Brian Nichols is a great manager, but there is no way in modern football to give a manager full control as in the case of Alex Ferguson in the past.”

“I can understand that. That is why it is important to set clear standards. Here’s my suggestion. If you win one of the cup competitions this season, you have full control over the selection of players in the second year. If Newcastle wins in three years as they wish, I hope they have full control over the signings after that. Of course, you’ll have to keep talking to the board. Wouldn’t it be best to win-win with each other?”

“I don’t think it’s bad for a start under those conditions. If we show it as a result, we will have to yield what we have to yield. First of all, let’s get the draft that way. The final decision will be made by the owner.”

A few days after negotiations with Newcastle were settled, the British press produced numerous articles every day about the future of manager Brian Nichols.

[What is Nichols’ next destination? EPL team strong.][Send a love call to coach Nichols, one of Europe’s leading teams.][Are you signing Bryan Nichols for PSG Champions League success?][The lowest ranking destination selected by experts is Newcastle. 1st place is West Ham.]

– In Chelsea, after all, because of friction with the owner, the oil money team Newcastle will not go.

– West Ham isn’t bad either.

– Could it be possible to go to a league other than the EPL?

– Dortmund is also worried right now. I want to go to the Bundesliga and see them kill giants.

At that time, when I was looking at the reactions of many media and fans,

“What are you doing without coming in? Did you come all the way to the sea?”

At the call of director Brian Nichols from behind, Jaejin closed the hologram window he was looking at and turned his gaze to the open sea in front of him.

‘Huh. Big too. Isn’t it just that I’m not rich?’

Jaejin was at the invitation of King Mohammed bin Salman and was on a 150-meter-long luxury yacht off the coast of Monaco.

‘Is this the oil money class? He was unimaginably rich. class is different Class.’
