    The Champions League semi-finals are getting closer day by day, and good news about Chelsea will appear in the newspapers every day. For example, Chelsea wants to buy Ronaldinho and Aguero; for example, Henry plans to return to the Premier League, but the next stop may be Chelsea, and Chelsea is  Buying Van der Vaart, for example, Chelsea's injured Drogba and Ballack have returned from injury. Lampard is looking for someone to take care of his seriously ill mother in order to fight against the Red Army. In short, Chelsea has a lot of money and a very bright future.  Liverpool's side was calm but some bad news came out from time to time. First, substitute center back Hyypia was injured in training, then Gerrard twisted his neck during the competition, then Babel had diarrhea, and finally "  The Times suddenly broke the news of infighting on the team's board of directors.  Hyypia and Babel are just Liverpool's substitutes. Gerrard's neck cannot affect his performance in the game. At most, it is inconvenient when heading for the top. However, the revelation of the infighting in the board of directors has a huge impact on Liverpool, because this  It even involves club CEO Rick Barry, head coach Benitez and Chen Yu.  Chen Yu should not have been the focus of the news. He has been scoring goals and leading Liverpool forward. Although there are constant poaching rumors, for a player like Chen Yu, transfer rumors are too common.  However, too much information exposed by the boardroom civil war shows that the 60 million pounds Liverpool spent to buy Chen Yu, Babel and Mascherano were temporary loans from the club; these three people are like mortgages for mortgages.  If the "Red Army" cannot solve the financial crisis soon, they may need to sell them to cash out this summer!  It is reported that when Hicks and Gillette restructured their debt in January last year, they included this loan into the total debt of 350 million owed by them to buy the club.  The debt is for 18 months, and Liverpool also opened a letter of credit for the 60 million.  If the Red Army cannot pay off the loan or restructure its debt by then, the bank has the right to forcibly auction Torres, Mascherano and Babel!  This is heavy bad news for all Liverpool people: the Chinese Superman has scored more than 40 goals in every season in the Premier League. This is the first season in the history of Liverpool that a scorer has scored more than 40 goals. The previous one did  The only player who scored more than 30 goals was Fowler 14 years ago.  How could such a genius be let go?  Unfortunately, Liverpool's property rights issue cannot be resolved for the time being.  Hicks wanted to acquire Gillette's shares so that he could dominate Anfield alone, but Gillette made it clear last weekend: "It's a pity that Hicks got angry again. He should have discussed the issue within the board of directors, especially us.  There is a crucial Champions League semi-final to be played soon. It's time for Hicks to stop. He should know that CEO Parry has my support and his words will not change my position. Hicks must also understand that I will not take it.  Even if Gillette is willing to sell to Hicks, Hicks may not be able to find the funds to match the Dubai Investment Group.  Although he hired Merrill Lynch as his financing representative, he has encountered obstacles in the City of London in the past few weeks due to the global credit crisis, and his parent company "Hicks Sports Group" is rumored to be in financial crisis and even needs to be sold.  The team lives.  Time was not on Hicks's side either: under his 14-month-old takeover agreement with Gillette, Hicks did have first dibs on Gillette's shares, provided that it came within 90 days of Dubai's offer of ¡ê200m (50% stake).  Come up with cash while Dubai offers end on February 27th.  In other words, Hicks must raise the funds before May 27 - less than a month away.  If Hicks cannot solve the financial problem by then, how can Liverpool fans who are already dissatisfied with him tolerate the prospect of losing Chen Yu because of his stubbornness?  In addition, Hicks also needs to quickly find another fund to complete the construction of Liverpool's new stadium. Local MPs in Liverpool have asked the British Minister of State for Sports to intervene as soon as possible to avoid affecting the development plans of the area.  In an unfavorable situation, in order to pursue the initiative and win the support of Benitez and the fans, Hicks did not care about the test the team faced in the Champions League semi-finals. He broke the news to "Sky Sports" that Rick Barry and Collins  Mann had two private meetings of which he had no prior knowledge.  "I didn't even know who Klinsmann was at the time. Gillette knew him, and he called me and said we had a problem to solve. Let's study Klinsmann. I searched for this on the Internet.  Who was that person, and Gillette had already talked to him, communicated with Rick Barry, and arranged an interview in New York, so I went to New York, but when I got there, Rick Barry was already there.  I had been chatting with Klinsmann for three or four hours. Gillette and I talked with him for another three or four hours, but then I talked to reporters about the situation, and everyone thought that I was the one who was trying to win over Klinsmann.  That's not the case at all, that man!" Hicks then launched an attack on Rick Barry, hoping he would resign as soon as possible.  "If you look at Liverpool under Parry, we've fallen well behind other top clubs.??, this is a disaster.  The new stadium should have been built 3 or 4 years ago We only have 2 or 3 main sponsors now, when we should have 12 to 15!  We have done nothing in Asia, but Manchester United and Barcelona have gone there.  ¡°Under Parry, Liverpool never had a commercial department, which is why our revenue lagged significantly behind.  We have a top brand in world football, but it has not been commercialized at all.  Parry did not trust commercial director Ian at all, but even so, Ian still organized a great team and restored good relationships with sponsors and fans.  " "In the first meeting between me, Gillette and Benitez a year ago, Rafa told us that he missed many good players because he could not communicate with Rick Barry.  Benitez was not in charge of the contract. He just handed over the negotiated players to the CEO, but after waiting for too long, nothing happened.  " "Rick Barry must resign. He has dedicated his life to this team, but now is the time for change.  A club has to grow and that's the key to your success.  You should at least have the ability to work with a coach, right?  I think Barry has proven he can't.  We need change and we have enough talent to choose from.  " Hicks's effect of diverting trouble has been achieved. Liverpool star St. John said: "It is okay for one person to manage the team, and he takes full responsibility.  But if two people manage the team, what if there is a disagreement between the two parties?  Pari was supposed to be the link between the bosses and Rafa, but in the end, Rafa found out that he was also present at the private meeting What would Rafa think?  'Wait a minute, he has a secret too.  ¡¯ I was shocked to be honest, Rafa must have felt isolated when you heard that Pari was at the meeting.  Now, who can he turn to for support?  " Some Liverpool fans also joined the anti-Parry ranks. One fan left a message to "The Sun" saying: "Parry is not a popular person at Anfield. Most fans can't stand him.  We want the American owners to go away, but Parry is the one responsible for bringing Americans into the club.  He is also responsible for almost losing Gerrard and I hope Parry and the Americans get out of Anfield.  "Some fans said: "If Parry still has any love for the club, if he still wants to retain his dignity, he should resign immediately to avoid being kicked in the butt.  "Under Hicks' aggressive offensive, Parry had no choice but to hold on. The day before the Champions League game, he issued a statement saying: "Only the board of directors can make me resign, and Hicks cannot do it alone.  I answer to the board and the board has not discussed this with me.  At the moment I will focus on taking care of the club because the Champions League is coming soon.  I would be happy if I could sit down and talk to Rafa.  My record in English football and at Liverpool is impeccable and it would be inappropriate for me to comment on these allegations as this should be a matter for discussion by the board.  In fact, continuing to publish this information in the media will obviously not help the work at this critical stage of the season.  That's not the way Liverpool does things, Hicks is clearly taking a Dallas Cowboys approach.  " Benitez has been involved. He wanted to study tactics quietly. It was no longer possible to lead the team in training. Benitez had to hold a press conference to respond. In order to appease the fans, Benitez first  Said that he will not leave Liverpool at present, "I still have two years of contract with the team. I am very happy here and I hope to stay."  Things on the board of directors have not affected me. We are all professionals and we know what to focus on and do well.  After winning Fulham, the overall situation of the league has been basically decided, and all our energy is now focused on the Champions League match against Chelsea.  " Benitez then expressed his anger about the contact between Rick Barry and Klinsmann, "This is not the first time I have heard about the private meeting with Klinsmann, but it is the first time for me about some of the participants.  Learned.  I was surprised that some people showed up at the meeting and I felt like I was being backstabbed.  This is why I hope to talk to the board of directors as soon as possible, and I hope to get clarification from the board of directors or relevant people.  I won't talk about the bosses at the press conference, but I will talk to them, if possible at the same time.  I want to know more and I'll ask some questions.  "Finally, Benitez hopes that the fans and players will turn their attention to the field. Liverpool's opponents in the Champions League semi-finals are very strong. They need to concentrate and need the support of the fans. "Whether Chen Yu will be sold is what worries the fans the most.  Anxiously, at the press conference, Chen Yu, who was in a bad mood due to the club's messy things, also expressed his position. He said that he would not consider those off-field matters. If the club is not prepared to sell him, he will not  Will leave Liverpool, and he will lead Liverpool to create a great era with Gerrard. The civil strife in Liverpool will definitely not calm down because Benitez and Chen Yu have expressed their intention to stay. In fact, this is just the beginning, but the Champions League half.  Finals??Arrived as expected.
