Chapter 444 Turn to a New Journey 2

There are troubles and sorrows. In the process, Don Jack found that he began to integrate into his new life. He may be used to Liverpool's life, but now he is no better than last season. At Liverpool, he was just a 'potential' star. Now he is one of the top stars in the world, and his life is natural. It's different. His days in Newcastle are busier than in Liverpool. In the past, he used to have a lot of free time, but now it is difficult to squeeze out some time every day. However, Don Jack is not disgusted with the current living conditions. After all, people can't be insatiable. Compared with the previous life in Morocco, it is much better now.

September 7 is a memorable day. On this day, after participating in the morning training, Jack Tang asked for leave in the afternoon to do his own affairs. This is also required by the club. He is going to attend a 'debut' signing ceremony. Naturally, it is not the club to sign the player, but with the representative of Adidas.

Maximilian, Newcastle United Club and Adidas have finally finished the quarrel. The negotiation, which has lasted for nearly 20 days, is over, and Don Jack will also become a signing player under Adidas.

In the choice of Nike and Adidas, Don Jack finally chose Adidas.

There is not much difference in treatment between the two, but Adidas's foreign market and the relationship between Adidas and Newcastle United Club have added a lot of points to them, and Nike lost the competition about Don Jack. However, Adidas was also hit hard by Maximilian. Obviously, with Don Jack's current reputation, it is not easy to sign him. Adidas's treatment has increased by almost 50%. According to the agreement of the three parties, Don Jack has officially become the image spokesperson of Adidas in Europe. This is obviously different from other signed players, just like those NBA basketball stars. Don Jack shoots at least three advertisements for Adidas every year and participates in the company's business activities in Europe.

Such an agreement will naturally treat better. Every year, Don Jack can directly benefit 12.5 million pounds from Adidas. After signing a contract for five years, the annual increase is 20%. That is to say, in the past five years, Don Jack can directly benefit at least 70 million pounds in total. Adidas The big money can be imagined.

More than that, according to the tripartite agreement, Adidas has the right to sell Newcastle United's No. 10 jerseys on retail networks around the world. They can use Don Jack's photos as an unlimited number of times for advertising, etc. Of course, the sales of jerseys are naturally divided, and there are many shares. Newcastle United Club The Ministry is actually involved in this. They have a sponsorship agreement with Adidas, and it is impossible to change it within two years. They are looking at the sales of club jerseys.

In the past, this may not have been much oily, but now it is different. With the better and better results of Newcastle United, Don Jack is becoming more and more famous, and the sale of his jerseys must be a large amount. Adidas survey shows that this sale can bring at least more than five million pounds to the company every year. The direct benefit is still a conservative estimate. Naturally, the selling of the team's jerseys is inseparable from the club. Newcastle United received a dividend of 20%, Don Jack himself was 12 percent, and the remaining 55% belonged to Adidas.

Nevertheless, Adidas' investment in Don Jack can never be earned in a short period of time. They value the long-term. At the age of Jack Don, his performance will definitely get better and better in five years. As the only brand spokesperson, Adidas in Europe, In particular, the English market is naturally rising. Adidas also valued this. They need to expand the company's market in England and compete with Nike for English market share to achieve other breakthroughs.

These naturally have nothing to do with Don Jack. What he cares about is how much income he can earn.

There are at least 15 million pounds a year, which is a very good number. You know, Adidas sponsors a Chelsea team, and the one-year bra advertisement is only 10 million pounds. It sounds surprising that you earn more than a Chelsea club. But it is not surprising that the contract signed by Don Jack Don and Adidas can almost be described as a "deed of sale". After signing the contract, Don Jack officially became a contracted player of Adidas. He must wear clothes produced by Adidas in public, and Adidas almost bought out Don Jack's portrait rights. It is impossible for other sports companies to have anything to do with Don Jack.

Adidas is strong enough!

Few football players in Europe can sign such a contract, not even Beckham. He only has Adidas's second-tier contract. That kind of symbolic second-tier contract can only bring Beckham an income of two or three million euros a year, which is completely different from Don Jack's first-tier contract.

But it still comes from strength!

There is no doubt about Don Jack's strength. After he got his English nationality, he is the breakthrough point of Adidas in the English market. Needless to say, almost all English fans will buy him. This is his strength. He can lead a team to victory, while other players are just stars. More people see the 'great' potential in Jack Don, which is only owned by a few people, such as Bailey and Maradona in the past. Whether Jack Don will surpass these top players in history is also a debate in the European media, but more people think that the strength of this boy has been surpassed. All he lacks is honor!

Honor!

The superstar who has been famous for decades will naturally participate in the World Cup. No matter which player leads the team to the World Cup championship in the World Cup, he can be praised by all fans, because he has done a good job, whether it is luck or strength. In short, he can lead the national team to win in the World Cup. It is the key. If Don Jack wants to reach the height of Maradona and Bailey, he must join the national team and hold the Hercules Cup.

After signing the contract with Adidas, Don Jack's life returned to the track of training. On September 10, all the first team players have returned to the team. On that day, the team gathered to train together all day, and Soness began to prepare for the next league the next day.

In the fifth round of the Premier League, Newcastle United's opponent is Fulham.

The strength of Chelsea's century-old enemy is only average. In 1879, a group of church worshippers founded the football club, and it was named Fulham in 1888.

In 1907, Fulham joined the English Football League. It was not until 40 years later that they entered the top league for the first time, but they were soon relegated to the second division. From the 1950s to the 1970s, Fulham held on to the top league under the leadership of the legend Hynes, and later legends such as Bobbi Moore and George Best Deng all played for Fulham in the 1970s. But the weakness of the background eventually relegated the team. In the late 1970s, they were relegated from the top league and fell into the abyss.

After entering the 1980s and 1990s, the new president Fayed made a generous move, and the team finally advanced to the Premier League in 2001.

In the 0203 season, they struggled to relegation under the leadership of Tigana. In the end, the youngest coach of the Premier League, Coleman, kept the Premier League's seat with 13th place after taking over. However, Fulham is still considered to be one of the candidates for relegation. However, Fulham's lineup is very similar to that of Newcastle United, and their offensive and defensive capabilities are very different. They can propose offensive football and have the ability to score against any opponent, but the defensive side is surprisingly weak. The same is true of Newcastle United, but compared with Fulham, Newcastle United's attack is stronger, but the defense is not much stronger. The Sun and The British Football all predicted in the summer that by the end of this season, Fulham is likely to be still struggling on the edge of relegation, and keeping a Premier League seat is their most important goal.

Fulham's transfer in the summer also gave these media more confidence in the 'prediction', because Fulham's strength was greatly weakened during the summer transfer. First of all, Van der Sar's transfer to Manchester United is a big blow to them, and the striker Andy Cole contributed 12 league goals last season. Now that he has gone to Manchester City, it may be difficult for the newly joined vacancy of Helguson from Watford to replace him. In addition, the departure of Bonisel and Clark has weakened the thickness of the midfield and backfield, and Fulham is likely to pay for excessive blood loss in the summer.

Before the game between the two teams, Fulham coach Coleman looked very low-key. He just repeatedly emphasized the team's 'football spirit', which may be the only thing he can emphasize. Compared with Newcastle United's luxurious offensive line, Fulham's attack is good, but it is still much worse, which can't let Coleman find himself. His only confidence can only come from hope: he hopes that the team can work miracles away from home.

But miracles are easy to happen, so it's not a miracle...

In the game held at St. James Park, Newcastle United still formed 442 formations. What excited the fans was that Michael. Owen and Alan. Shearer's partner started, and the two led the Newcastle team. Don Jack was the midfielder and Scott. Parker's partner, Janus, sat on the bench.

After the start of the game, Coleman did not see a miracle, and the scene of the game seemed to be a little unexpected. Fulham, known as "good at attacking", fought a defensive counterattack at St. James's Park. Coleman seemed to want to win a chance for the team in this way, but in the thirteenth minute, Fulham's defender lost the pass. Wrongly, Don Jack and Parker cooperated to pass the ball to the penalty area. The opponent's central defender fell to the ground at the critical moment, and then Owen easily scored.

"The goal is scored, 1 to 0! Michael-Irwin-"

This is more like a goal given by the opponent to Owen, but Jin Tong still looks very happy. Since breaking the goal shortage, the goal seems to be much easier for him, probably because there is no psychological pressure.

In the thirty-fifth minute of the game, Luke, who had a strained thigh muscle, was forced to leave the field, and the unlucky defender Steven collided with the goalpost. Taylor was also replaced at half-time. After that, Fulham was very tenacious. Don Jack and Owen cooperated continuously in the front court, but Fulham's crowd tactics are very practical. Although their defense is more like a group of unmoving wooden stakes for Don Jack, he can bring two back and forth in Fulham's half, which is a bit of praise, but Looking at the enthusiasm of the fans at the scene, you can know how good Don Jack performed in the front court. Those Fulham defenders were almost completely useless. Once Don Jack even quickly took the ball from the middle to the penalty area for a few seconds. Fulham's defense was useless. However, Fulham players are very tenacious. They blocked the goal again and again, constantly resolving Newcastle United's attack.

After entering the second half, Newcastle United still didn't have much chance until the 78th minute, the opposing player Boa. Mott fouled Don Jack in front of the penalty area, and Don Jack used a free kick directly into the net at the front of the penalty area to rewrite the score to 2-0.

"Gooooooal!!! Two to zero, this is Jack's eighth goal for Newcastle United this season!"

"With eight goals in five games, Jack still maintains his high efficiency. He is now a banner of Newcastle United's attack. As long as the opponent can't defend Jack, it means that the flag will not fall, and it will naturally be difficult for the opponent to win Newcastle United. Now Newcastle fans are very happy. They have people who have always scored for the team, and their opponents can only consider how to reduce Newcastle United's goals..."

Don Jack, who scored the goal, was also very happy, but he didn't celebrate anything. The opponent's strength was too weak, which was difficult to arouse his celebration. If it were Manchester United, Don Jack had to run half a lap around the court, which felt completely different.

This goal may have completely shattered Fulham's heart for victory. Fulham players were originally motivated by the 'miracle theory', but now they are still two goals behind in the second half, which makes them feel hopeless. Thinking about the first four rounds of the season, Arsenal and Manchester United fell at Newcastle United and the foot of the opponent's No. 10. What surprise can Fulham beat his opponent?

Such an idea is very sad... Then Fulham also surrendered, at least they were not very serious in the game.

So, the third goal came quickly, and it was still Michael who scored. Owen was a close-range volley. After winning a corner kick, Don Jack took the initiative to take a corner kick on the left side, and a tactical arc went straight to Owen's feet. All Owen needed to do was kick the ball into the goal.

Jin Tongmei opened twice!

Owen hasn't scored so smoothly for a long time. In excitement, he even learned from Jack Don and began to run around the court, but he seemed to overestimate his physical strength and endurance. After running for half a lap, Owen stopped panting. Thinking that after nearly an hour of competition, he ran half a laps quickly. Owen, who could be bad, almost fell on the court.

It's tragic. After the goal, Sones had to replace Owen, and then Janus got another chance.

Janus didn't have much hope for playing, but now it's an unexpected surprise to be able to play. He has been looking forward to being selected for the England national team again. Jenas is still very excited to have the opportunity to play. Unfortunately, the game time is not much. Fulham is not energetic and plays at home. Newcastle United plays. There won't be much spirit.

In the end, the game ended with a three-goal victory for Newcastle United.

※※※

At the end of the fifth round of the Premier League, unexpectedly, Don Jack, who scored the goal, was not selected for the best team in this round. This is the first time this season. In the first four rounds of the Premier League, Jack Don is almost always selected as the best striker combination. Although he often starts at home, the English media still habitually attributes him to In the forward range.

The best strikers in the fifth round are Yakub and Michael from Middlesbrough. Owen, who scored twice away against Fulham, while Don Jack only scored one goal. Yakubu made a "break" and "buy one get one free" assist Makarone's single goal. Don't forget that Yakubu's opponent is Arsenal, Middlesbrough and Arsenal. Yakubu can pass and shoot one shot, which is indeed better than Don Jack's inaction in the second half.

In addition, Bent, who also fought in the Championship last year, scored five goals in four games, surpassing many seniors to enter the second place in the scorer list. It is only the favorite of Don Jack's eight goals. In this round of the league, Bent scored the only goal for the team. Charlton scored four wins and one draw in five games, ranking fourth in the Premier League, which made the English media very surprised. Mirror, the Premier League has really changed.

These news are difficult to affect Don Jack. In fact, as a player at this stage, there is no time to pay attention to media reports. They are more concerned about the game. The fifth round of the Premier League has just ended. Only three days later, Newcastle United went to Blackburn City to challenge Black at Ewood Park. This team.

Black has been remarkable this season. After the hard relegation last season, the ability shown by head coach Hughes is convincing. Black himself and the English media believe that Hughes should be able to lead the team to a new breakthrough. In the summer, Hughes bought people very targeted. Last season, Blackburn's goal was the least in the Premier League, and the offensive power of the front line needs to be improved. Hughes then recruited his compatriot Bellamy from Newcastle, and the strength of the front line has been greatly improved. In the second half of last season, Blackburn's fierceness and tough defense in the backfield were impressive. What they lacked was only a good striker, and Bellamy may become the finishing touch of the team's overall improvement.

Of course, this is also one of the reasons why Soness is eager to strengthen the front line.

Berami brought hope and doubts to Blackburn. There is no doubt that his ability will greatly improve the strength of the team's front line, but his personality is also really strange, and it is unknown whether it will bring instability to the team. However, from the perspective of lineup strength, Blackburn's overall strength is average, and Bellamy's arrival has made them have characteristic good players and strength. Liter. At present, the main players of this team are Neil, Todd, Savage and other tough guys. Obviously, toughness is Blackburn's unchanging style.

This is a difficult challenge for Newcastle United!
