However, the highest level leagues are in Spain, England, and Italy. Although all those countries seem far away it isn’t as hard as it seems to make it to a team from one of those countries. The teams from the major soccer leagues send scouts all over the world to give children an opportunity to play for them, no matter where they play. If the scouts feel someone is good enough, they will call and put in a good word for a player and more scouts will go watch until they decide whether or not to give the player a chance. The fact that it doesn’t matter if they’re playing on the street or if they’re playing organized soccer makes the game more accessible.

Although, the case study of Manchester United gives us a good example of a brand’s ability to globalize, it does not give us a clear picture into how a league as a whole accomplishes these same goals. To get this clear picture of a successful global soccer league we can review a case study by Matthew Holt that examines the UEFA Champions League and its ability to succeed. The UEFA Champions League(UCL) was established after the UEFA European cup started to see more revenue increases based on the increase in television and digital technologies. (Holt, 2007) The goal of the UCL was to increase revenue through a newly structured European club soccer league. The first way that UCL accomplished this was through centralized marketing. This was accomplished through selling the television rights as the UCL brand rather than allowing the clubs to individually sell the rights to the games. This increased the value of the television rights and in turn increased the profitability of the clubs. (Holt, 2007) UEFA sold this UCL brand

Cantona was a talent with an abundance of self-confidence, but had been a destructive force inside the dressing rooms of his previous clubs in France. He had been known as much for punch-ups with team-mates at Auxerre and Montpellier as his ability with a ball at his feet” (Fenn). Cantona is a great footballer as it is called in Europe but his mentality is his own kryptonite and it has led him to try and find different jobs in the world of soccer.

The first concern is a lack of clear goal for Alex. From the presentation, it’s not entirely clear what he’s trying to achieve in his actionable goal with in his inner goal. Granted, he wants to be on England’s rugby team. The presentation doesn’t highlight his strong determination to get on the team. He doesn’t seem to be proactive about it. Maybe his goal is to be the best rugby player in England. Make sure to declare his actionable or external goal. Alex might say: “I’m going to be the best player England ever had.” Show what Alex does to achieve his goal. His goal should drive the plot.

“McClure, you are a waste of oxygen and life”, my verbally abusive coach spit from him flaming mouth one last time as I walked out of his office. I was numb, and in shock, but relaxed, oddly feeling at peace with myself and my decision. Soccer had brought so much confidence, passion, work ethic, and pure joy to my life, it was something so stable and rewarding for 15 years. 15 years of endless passion enwrapped in pain and sweat, accompanied by life lessons I could not have gone on without, yet within 2 years, this wonderful aspect of my existence collapsed.

Paul Brown is one of the most well-known coaches ever. He is a hall of fame coach who led the Cleveland Browns to dominance in the 1940s and 1950s. In high school, he coached a powerhouse team that had very good success. He then went on to College and the NFL. After his career In Cleveland, he went to the Cincinnati Bengals where he achieved some success and even had the stadium named after him. Gladwell defines certain characteristics in the book Outliers that make people successful and an outlier. Paul brown Exemplifies many of these ideas. Paul Brown was a coach for many years. Brown was one of the best coaches ever and he did great things that weren’t just in football. “His work ethic on playbooks and classroom techniques make him one of the most well-known coaches of all time” (Barnes). Brown is an Outlier because he exemplifies 10,000 hours of work/practice, he exemplifies the Mathew effect, and he had opportunity for meaningful work.

In his book “Wooden on Leadership,” the coach reveals that he never focused on his teams’ records or gauged success or failure on wins versus losses. Rather, he defined success as “peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are

At first, Hall claims that Callum Gribbin, a young skillful soccer player, handles the pressure of playing at a high league such as Manchester United in a professional manner with the evidence provided from Gribbin’s Coach, Kenny Swain (Hall 2).However, later in his article, Hall asserts Callum Gribbin’s hot temper and lack of discipline leads Callum to rashly complain about the minimal playing time he once dealt with. When Hall provides the details of how Gribbin whined on twitter, it contradicts Hall’s argument that Gribbin handles the issues of being a skillful player professionally. Hence, the concrete evidence of the tweets written by Gribbin outweighs the remarks of the coach, Kenny Swain. Conversely, the author strengthens his stance

In this assignment I will be exploring the ways in which Internal and external factors have an impact on the core revenues of Clubs and how clubs themselves can potentially help put the factors in their favour. Topics such as Fans and their behaviour and Player conduct on and off the pitch will be explored. Things that can occur which clubs have little or no power over – such as a major political shift – which can affect a clubs income will also be covered.

Talking about success, in a YouTube video by Jandafrique (2009), it shows Jobs himself explaining the rules of success. In the video, Jobs quoted, “You got to love it, you got to have passion”. I strongly agree to what Steve Jobs had said because to succeed, you need to be passionate about what you are doing. A given task would not be a burden to one if that particular one loved their job. They would enjoy doing every bit of it if they love doing it, therefore making everything simpler and faster to accomplish. Other than that,”No matter how smart you are, you need a team of great people” (Jobs cited in Jandafrique 2009) was also quoted by Jobs. One cannot open an organization and work alone to be successful. It would almost be impossible. As quoted by John Heywood, “many hands make light work.” Therefore, this shows the ways and traits in which made Jobs an inspiring man.

Then, we cannot say that Philip Anderson is a bad manager. Indeed, by reading the text, despite the new failure of his team which has not reach the targets fixed for them, this man seems to have a strong character, he used to manage a team. In my opinion, his is just not to the right place. The description of this manager suggests that the man could have built and managed his own enterprise. Indeed, we can read that Philip is “individual”, “enjoys being a manager” and he has a lot of experience in the professional word. Moreover, the man thinks of himself that he is “hard-working and loyal employee”...
