Chapter 103 The difficult first round of Serie A
After the Champions League draw, all the Italian fans were waiting for the news of the start of the first round of the game, but bad news came.
News came from the official website of the Italian Football Association that negotiations between the Serie A League as the investor and the Italian Football Union as the laborer failed, and the first round of a league was originally scheduled to be held this weekend, which will be postponed.
The original labor contract expired in the summer of 2010, but the new round of labor contracts was too big due to the disagreement between the two parties. After the whole season, it was not agreed.
Even the Players Guild prepared a strike last season to threaten the Serie A and achieve its own interests. However, the Italian Football Association mediated it, which ensured the smooth progress of the Serie A last season.
However, so far, the labor and management sides have not reached an agreement, and the Serie A has been delaying again and again, repeatedly requiring the competition to be held first and discuss cooperation.
This kind of thing is like a wolf coming. The promises were made too many times but not fulfilled once. Now the players will refuse to give up and directly choose the final approach that neither side will benefit.
Strike!!
Moreover, this time the players' union has a very firm attitude and will not play games without signing a contract.
Even though the Italian Football Association expressed its willingness to invest 20 million euros to pay special taxes for players, this proposal was rejected by the Serie A, and the president of the Players' Guild Tomasi once again stated that he would "stop the game if he didn't sign a contract."
Thomassi said in an interview with the media after the meeting: "We found that there were some errors in Italy's football system, so we tried to correct these mistakes through negotiations. However, many of our requests have not been accepted in the past year and a half. We made another suggestion for improvement this morning, but it was still rejected by the Serie A. It can be clear that the players really want to play games, but the Serie A did not accept the conditions we offered. I hope our decision can be understood by the outside world, especially the senior management."
The suspension of the team is not a good thing for players. They will pay a week's salary. Italian Sports News analyzed that an average player will lose 23,650 euros. Of course, the highest-paid Serie A Serie A will lose as much as 304,600 euros.
Why this happens is obviously because of an eternal topic, interests.
Unlike the broadcast fee sharing in the Premier League, the broadcast fee of Italy and La Liga is mostly monopolized by several giants, and the remaining little bits cannot support the finances of small and medium-sized clubs.
There is a saying that we should not worry about lack of people but unevenness, and low-level league players take action. Given the improvement of the union system, those top stars whose interests are not damaged must also participate and use their own influence to help their peers, and the suspension will arise.
For example, Ibrahimovic has no impact on him, but he must stand on the side of the players' union, otherwise how could he continue to be a player profession?
If the players are targeting you on the court, they will definitely not be able to play on the court.
So was Gao Fei. At first, Raiola was worried that Gao Fei would be led by the media. Fortunately, Gao Fei was not a fool. He stood on the side of the Players' Union and agreed to solve this problem through a strike.
Why does the Serie A refuse to agree to the conditions of the Players' Guild? Because their income has become smaller and they even have no income, they have to pay in the future. In this case, they are unwilling to be suckers.
After all, Serie A's influence is too poor now, and its overall revenue has decreased. Last season, except for Napoli's home court, which was able to reach an attendance rate of more than 90% every time, other teams generally struggled.
With teams like Juventus and Milan's two-man Milan, the enthusiasm of fans will decrease, and the club's income will naturally be reduced.
Especially last season, Serie A's European points were surpassed by the Bundesliga, which means that the upcoming season will be the last season with four Serie A teams playing in the Champions League. Starting from the 2012-2013 season, there are only 3 places left in the Champions League.
After the phone gate incident, Serie A team won a championship in the Champions League except AC Milan, and then Mourinho's three-time champion, but at other times, Inter Milan and Roma, they mostly delivered food in the Champions League.
It is precisely this way that their points are surpassed by the Bundesliga.
Why would Mancini be dismissed if he led Inter Milan to win the league championship in succession? Foreign war laymen, civil war laymen.
After the new season begins, Serie A teams need to work hard for the top three.
If one quota is missing, it may be a lot less income, and then the Serie A will get worse and worse.
In addition to this, another very important reason is the loss of stars.
Back then, Zidane, Nedvedere, Maldini, Buffon and other stars were all well-known worldwide.
Now, besides Buffon and Ibrahimovic, there are not many top superstars who can make their reputation worldwide.
Without a star to consider joining Serie A, this is a vicious cycle and it is difficult to break.
The time is coming to September, and the labor-management agreement has entered its final stage. Before the second round of the league begins, there will definitely be a solution. Neither side can spend it anymore. This kind of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 by themselves is not advisable!
Although the team did not play, Gao Fei did not stop training. It was under Gao Fei's leadership that although the players did not have their first week's salary, they also felt that they came to participate in the team's training.
The coaching staff is very enthusiastic. When training on the court, no one talks about the labor-management agreement. They should not understand such things, they just need to wait for the final decision.
Naples has a very sufficient staff this season. In order to deal with the third-line battle, 25 people on the roster are already complete.
Goalkeeper Desanctis, Colognebo, Rosati;
Among the backcourt players are Grava, Fidelef, Aronica, Dorsena, Campaniaro, Zuniga, Britos, Cannavaro Jr.;
This is still a place where there are many people in the midfield, Gao Fei, Hamsik, Marjo, Ravic, Gargano, Zema Yili, Fernandez, Dezi, Donadal;
The forward line is also the main strengthening place in the summer, Cavani, Vargas, Chavez, Pandev, and Inle.
At this moment, Cavani finally won't complain anymore, but it will definitely feel the pressure. Pandev is a veteran with a lot of experience. Last season, his performance at Inter Milan was also very impressive.
Inle is only in his 27 years old and is officially the best age for players. The two of them will definitely add a lot of pressure to Cavani.
Others may not know, but as the ultimate beneficiary, Cavani will not know that the reason why he was able to win the Serie A Golden Boot last season was not to drive high-fly assists one by one.
