As the curtain of the 2003-04 Premier League season slowly comes to an end, the rankings of the twenty Premier League teams in the league standings have been completely determined. [爱↑去△小↓说△网wqu] And after seeing the league rankings of the teams they support, the moods of the fans of each team are also different at the moment.

First, let’s talk about the three unlucky guys who were unfortunately relegated. The strong rise of Tottenham and Chelsea this season has not only changed the original championship pattern in the Premier League, but also made the battle for the league title from a two-person battle between Manchester United and Arsenal to a one-on-one battle. It is a deputy four-nation military chess, and it also makes this season's league relegation battle more tragic. You know, before the final round of the Premier League started, the four teams Everton (36 points), Leeds United (34 points), Wolves (33 points) and Leicester City (33 points) all had success. Hope of relegation!

It is for this reason that the relegation battle in the Premier League this season will become extremely fierce. Four teams including Everton, who also realized this, tried their best during the game to compete for the last relegation spot!

This is also the main reason why Wolves players did not choose to accept Spurs' overtures. Because no matter how many goals they lose to Tottenham, they will definitely bid farewell to the Premier League, already tied for last place with Leicester City in the standings. In this case, it's better to give it a try, and maybe we can win a chance for our own side!

However, it turns out that although the Wolves players' fight against fate this time was commendable, the final outcome was quite miserable - they were officially announced to be relegated from the Premier League with a 1-5 defeat. For the Wolves, Said, this is definitely a very painful experience.

After learning that Tottenham, who had locked up the league runner-up in advance, did not choose to let go in the last game, but beat Wolves 1 to 5 in the away game, Everton coach Moyes specifically said after the game. George made a phone call and expressed his gratitude to George very sincerely - after all, for any English team, no matter what the cost, they will do their best to stay in the Premier League, not Relegated to the second tier at the end of the season.

After all, league relegation is not only about the club's reputation and attraction to players, but also has a profound impact on the club's financial situation - since 22 League One clubs (the top league in England at the time) twelve years ago Since the decision to break away from the management of the Football Association and establish a Premier League company to operate the Premier League on its own, the gap in financial income between Premier League clubs and teams in other leagues in England has become increasingly wide, especially in terms of television broadcast income. On this piece. You know, the TV broadcast contract signed by the Premier League in 2001 was about 3.56 billion pounds for three years. This figure far exceeded the total TV broadcast fees of other leagues in England during the same period!

Therefore, even if it is for the sake of their own pockets, all teams entering the Premier League will try their best to avoid being relegated from the Premier League. After all, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Having been accustomed to spending money lavishly in the Premier League, suddenly returning to English League One where broadcasting fees are less than a fraction of the Premier League. The huge financial pressure alone is enough to destroy any club that is not strong enough.

The most typical example is West Ham United, which was unfortunately relegated last season. After being relegated to English League One with the highest points in the history of the Premier League, the Hammers cut a lot of expenses by selling team players and received a large amount of transfer income, but even so, West Ham United still failed. I can take a breather, but this season's attempt to surpass the league also ended in failure. This has further deepened the financial pressure on West Ham United, forcing West Ham United's senior management to continue to sell these high-quality resources in the team in exchange for the necessary funds to maintain the club's operations.

After witnessing West Ham United's predicament after being relegated, all Premier League clubs, especially those non-promoted teams, are even more afraid of relegation. After all, no one wants to repeat the mistakes of West Ham United and become the next unlucky guy.

I have to say that Everton's luck is really quite good. Its three direct competitors faced extremely tough teams in the final round of the league - Leicester City faced Arsenal away from home, and Wolves faced Tottenham Hotspur. , as for Leeds United, this young guard who impressed countless fans three years ago will challenge Chelsea at Stamford Bridge!

The bottom three teams in the league will face the top three teams in the final game, while Everton, fourth from bottom, only needs to go to Manchester to challenge Manchester City, which is ranked only one place above them. In addition, Everton is still two points ahead of third-to-last Leeds, so it seems that Everton's relegation is no problem. However, with a good relegation situation, Everton was beaten 1 to 5 by Manchester City at the City Stadium and lost this extremely crucial battle!

It is precisely for this reason that Moyes thanked George so much after the game - if any of Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea chooses to let go and lose, then Everton will be the unlucky one to be relegated. Egg.

To this end, Moyes also promised George that if Tottenham needs his help in the future, he will do his best. For example, if Tottenham takes a fancy to a player that Everton intends to sell in the future, or plans to loan the player to Everton for training, then Moyes will open the door for Tottenham.

George still admires Moyes' ability to train players. Although Everton under the coaching of the Scot still maintains the relatively simple and direct tactical play of the traditional English team, during the years when he coached Everton, he successively cultivated Arteta. Fellaini, Lescott, Tim Cahill, Jagielka and many other well-known stars in the Premier League. Therefore, if they choose to cooperate with Moyes and let Everton help Tottenham train players, Tottenham can still gain a lot of benefits.

For Moyes, reaching a partnership with Tottenham is also of great benefit to Everton. After all, Everton is not like Tottenham and Chelsea, who are backed by a wealthy owner; nor is it like Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and other teams, which have enough money-absorbing ability to ensure that they spend lavishly in the transfer market. Therefore, and Cooperation with Tottenham is of great benefit to Everton, both from a financial and human perspective.

In this way, in a few words, a verbal agreement was quietly born in the conversation between George and Moyes. Of course, neither of them expected at this time that in the near future, it would be through this agreement that Tottenham and Everton would achieve true mutual benefit and become the major giants in the Premier League in the future. A classic case that club managers are eager to refer to and imitate! Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
