SIPG training base, Sanremo open training day.
Reporters and fans looked at the players on the training ground with excitement.
"Who is that? It's so fast! In the 50-meter race, he almost beat the second place by four or five positions!"
"Baizami! Former Inter Milan youth training player, Sanremo's starting left winger, known as one of the fastest young stars in Serie A!"
"Where's that yellow-haired midfielder? I feel like he's very good at his little skills. He and Lu Yang passed the ball to each other for three minutes, and the football never landed. There was no mistake at all!"
"Yeah, Lu Yang still had a few passes that weren't quite accurate, but Huang Mao took them all easily."
"That's Molic! He's Brother Lu's die-hard younger brother, the core of Sanremo's midfield, and a good cake maker! There was news a few days ago that Molic brought a family of more than 30 people to visit China, that is, the Lu Yang Gang They just took it easy, they have a good relationship."
"Where's that tall guy? His header feels so fierce! With his figure, he can completely dominate SIPG's defense."
"Naji! Sheng Yifeng!"
"A center forward?"
"No, he is a centre-back, the most scoring centre-back in Sanremo! Last season he scored more than ten goals and own goals in Serie C. He was the only centre-back in Europe to score in double figures last season. "
"The veteran over there is Berrettelli. He was also a good striker who played in Serie A back then. His dribbling skills are two levels higher than those of domestic strikers!"
"Fernandez, a young player from Sanremo, is the starting right winger all year round. Although his skills are comprehensive, there are no breakthrough points but there are no shortcomings."
"Sanremo center Sogel performed well in this year's European Youth Championship and is known as the future pillar of Italy's forward line! Friendly reminder, he is a loan player from Milan. Sanremo spent a lot of money to keep him this season! "
"Versach, Sanremo's all-around midfielder, scored more than eight assists and goals last season! A typical all-around fighter!"
"Kamijon is a swingman at left back and center back. He is very strong. He is a great weapon to defend against domestic strikers who have neither body nor speed!"
"Ratoidi! Former Milan superstar! Once a world-class midfielder!"
"Kanyes! Juventus supernova, Sanremo's summer reinforcement!"
"Bernoulini! Former Juventus superstar! World-class central defender! At his peak, he was a strong contender for the world's No. 1 central defender!"
Not only the fans, but also some SIPG players were looking at the Sanremo players in a daze.
Is this really just Serie C players?
No, they are already in Serie B now.
No wonder!
Even the Chinese Super League may not be able to match the level of competition in foreign secondary leagues at home.
Otherwise, why is the national football team composed of famous Chinese Super League players far from being a rival to teams composed of players working in various secondary leagues?
Of course, as professional players, SIPG players can also see the "imbalance" of the Sanremo team.
The gap in the ability of Sanremo players is actually quite large.
The abilities of some players are probably above Serie C and below Serie B.
But there are still some players who are considered to be strong players in Serie A.
For such a team, it is obvious that their strength has not yet completely stabilized, and they are still in the period of soaring ability.
"Little Shitou, how are you? Are you sure you can replace their Fernandez?" SIPG players cheered together.
The little stone is called Shi Tian. He is 21 years old and is one of the main forwards in the SIPG team. He is very talented.
Shi Tian shook his head in embarrassment: "Compared with Bayizami, Soger, Berrettelli, Lu Yang and others, Fernandez seems to be mediocre, but compared with me, I feel that he is simply an all-round forward. !”
Speed, small skills, coordination, physical confrontation, Fernandez is slightly better than Shi Tian in all aspects.
In this way, it is said that Fernandez will mainly play in the rotation in Sanremo in the new season, because Fernandez is only 19 years old and cannot be overused.
Many SIPG players were ashamed of this.
"Ding!"
The mobile phones of some media present rang, and then several reporters took out their mobile phones.
Sanremo people are sitting in China, and transfers are coming from the sky!
"European Football Transfer Breaking!" Sanremo still wants to buy someone? 》
"With an offer of 9 million euros for Cortino, Sanremo intends to take away the European Youth Championship's iron-blooded midfielder!" 》
"Torino refuses!" Said that Cortino has an indispensable importance in the team lineup this season, Cortino is not for sale! 》
"Fifteen million euros!" Sanremo moves forward with multiple lines and offers Ligue 1 supernova Ceballos! 》
"The local tycoon makes a second effort, what is Sanremo's intention to buy at the end of the window?" 》
"Has the European Youth Championship in Italy given Sanremo confidence?" Regarding the impact of this European Youth Championship on Italian football, the value of young Italian players has generally increased! 》
"Monaco refuses to discuss Ceballos' future with Sanremo, saying Ceballos is worth at least 20 million euros! 》
"Sanremo's second offer for Ceballos, 17 million euros!" 》
"Monaco refused again, their bid for Ceballos was much higher than Sanremo's bid! 》
"Professional agent analysis: Ceballos will not transfer until next year, and his worth is likely to be higher than 25 million euros!" 》
"make persistent efforts! Sanremo offers 8 million for Premier League Liverpool youth player Jan Lahm! 》
One piece of news came after another, making the transfer window that had become silent become active again before it was about to close.
For a time, everyone began to carefully analyze Sanremo's lineup.
Why are they waving checks so generously?
Impact on Serie A?
This... Calculate Sanremo's investment this season, even if they succeed in Serie A, they will not make any money.
And now they are in Serie B.
At the same price, it is definitely cheaper to buy players from Serie A teams.
If they really plan to hit Serie A, one or two years of polishing the existing lineup will be enough.
Soon, a senior reporter put forward a reasonable analysis, that is, Sanremo is...reserving energy!
"Sanremo will definitely have an impact on Serie A in the next three seasons, that's for sure. But the current operations of Sanremo's management reflect their forward-looking attitude." This reporter whose ID is Night Ranger His point of view is, "There have been many teams that have the ability to compete in the top leagues in recent years, but it is very rare that they can truly stay in the top leagues."
"One of the important factors is that after being promoted to the top league, they have to face the situation of players being poached, and on the other hand they have to accept the dilemma of not being able to buy anyone."
"With this ebb and flow, it will be difficult for them to stay on the big stage of the top league."
"Sanremo has obviously begun to reserve talent resources in advance. They have bought a lot of players in the past two years and have been polishing their skills in Serie B for one or two years. Then if they look for opportunities to be promoted to Serie A, even if some players are poached, their There won’t be much problem with the main structure.”
"When the time comes, if we invest heavily in two strong players, we may not be able to stay in the top league."
This is an in-depth analysis with a very correct angle.
The biggest headache for the newly promoted team is actually that they can't buy anyone.
In other words, you can buy people, unless the price is high.
Because everyone knows that the newly promoted team is in urgent need of reinforcements.
In the same top league, the old team may be able to buy someone for 10 or 20 million, but the newly promoted team will spend 30 million or even 40 million to sell it to you, because they know that you have this urgent need.
In the business world, once your needs are expressed, you are a lamb to be slaughtered.
Instead of waiting until the time comes to be ripped off, it is better to be prepared in advance.
Although it will still be inevitable to buy people at high prices, the less you buy, the less you will be ripped off.
Of course, Sanremo's purchases this time came fast and furious.
So soon the media raised the question again, that is, have these buyers communicated with Lu Yang?
Although Sanremo made a fortune from the transfer of Bechirci, the discord between Bechirchi and Lu Yang in the team was obvious to all.
This is true for a 4-million-euro Becherchi. If Ceballos, a 17-million-euro man, really comes, he and Lu Yang...
But when the media were writing headlines, they suddenly remembered the European Youth Championship that ended not long ago.
Italy's championship-winning lineup includes Cortino, Ceballos and others.
As the top player of the Italian National Youth Team, how did Ceballos get along with Lu Yang in the end?
Didn't Brother Lu tell Ceballos to rush forward, but Ceballos just rushed forward?
Brother Lu said Xiao Ke, you should retreat, but Cortino would just retreat to the back line?
So, why is Sanremo worried that this kind of purchase will cause Lu Yang's core position to be unstable?
So how come Sanremo didn't consider Lu Yang's feelings when buying people?
Quite the opposite is true.
Precisely because Sanremo regards Lu Yang as its absolute core, when purchasing players, the first priority is whether they can have a positive interaction with Lu Yang.
As far as buying people is concerned, Sanremo, which has gone through a wrong path once, has now figured it out.
Even, just to be safe, they copied the homework directly.
The Italian National Youth Team has been very successful this year, right?
Okay, then buy according to this lineup and quote one by one!
So, just when the media was tortured by Sanremo and couldn't stop and didn't know what headlines to write, Sanremo transfer rumors spread again, and this time the dust settled at an extremely fast speed.
"Heavyweight!" The best love is to let go of your hands! Sanremo officially announced that it has reached an agreement with the Red Army Liverpool! Jan Lahm returns to the Italian League with a transfer fee of 8 million euros! 》
"Jan Lahm, who is he?" As a youth trainee of the Red Army, he only played ten times for the Liverpool first team! 》
"Loan Player!" Lahm has been on loan by the Red Army for the past two years. This time, the Red Army should have completely given up on him! 》
"The new Champions League champion lets go of the youngster, and Sanremo completes the defense reinforcement to fulfill his benefactor!" 》
"Why Jan Lahm?" Sanremo got a wrong answer when copying homework this time! 》
For a time, the once unknown young player Jan Lahm became the headline figure in today's transfer.
There are three main points in discussing him.
One is worth eight million!
Do you think this value is high?
not tall.
After all, the upper limit of young players has been raised by Mancini to 40 million. A rising tide lifts all boats.
But...considering that Ram had never established a foothold in Liverpool before.
A mediocre youth training product from a wealthy family can be sold for 8 million euros. No matter how you look at it, it feels a bit like a stupid wealthy company.
Even Sogel, a youth training player from a wealthy club, was not worth more than four million before he played.
Basically, those who have not yet made it through the youth training of wealthy families are worth around three million.
Lahm that's almost tripled.
It wouldn't be unreasonable to say that Lahm gets the glory of Liverpool's Champions League.
However, Lahm did not enter Liverpool's first team at all last season. Instead, he was loaned to the Eredivisie or the Portuguese Super League, so naturally he did not have the Champions League buff.
In this situation and at this price, we can only say that Sanremo is... stunned.
A European Youth Championship is definitely not worth the price.
What's more... Lahm's performance in this European Youth Championship... is beyond words.
He is almost one of the lowest rated players in the Italian National Youth Team.
Although Pirola, who is also a central defender, has been criticized for his slow turning speed, he has also shown his strong points of strong frontal defense, strong organizational skills, and strong aerial ball. His advantages and disadvantages are clear, and his value has steadily increased.
Ram, on the other hand, was mediocre.
Not only did his speed advantage not come into play against top strikers, but his body was also beaten by Pawlowski. His defensive ability was second only to Pirola and was outplayed by Mancini and Henriquez. He was only 1.85 meters tall. Very weak against high-altitude balls.
After the first battle, he was basically the only one in the Italian National Youth Team whose value fell instead of rising, which is outrageous!
Sanremo shopped around according to the list of the Italian National Youth Team, and finally bought such a money-losing thing. It was simply...precisely eliminating all the correct answers and buying a wrong answer.
Absolutely.
…
"Ding! You led the team to win the European Youth Championship and won the European Youth Championship gift package!"
"Ding! You have obtained 3 basic points, 1 essence point, and a Beckham moment card."
Because he has been busy recently, Lu Yang only opened the European Youth Championship gift package at this time.
Don't tell me, it's true that the explosion rate is better if you endure a move and then open the pack.
Beckham moment card...
Lu Yang could no longer be satisfied.
Now that he has Messi + Beckham, he asks who else is there!
These two moment cards are enough for him to make a comeback in any game!
As for extra points, Lu Yang gave short passes to all three basic points, bringing his short passes from 74 to 80.
After all, short passing is the ability that a player uses most, and adding it is beneficial.
As for the highlight, Lu Yang gave the speed a boost from 80 to 81.
Because of the star barrier, Lu Yang only needs to increase the top data to about 83, leaving some space for the time card to avoid data overflow too early.
This is another life skill that Zero Krypton players have to worry about.
Krypton gold players don’t need to think about this. They can just fill up the data they want, regardless of whether it overflows or not.
Lu Yang was in a good mood after receiving the gift package, and even felt better when he came to pick him up at the airport.
By coincidence, a foreign friend appeared at the airport exit at this time.
"Hey, Ram!" Lu Yang waved.
Ram's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Yang, and the haze in his heart dissipated a lot.
Yes, Ram is here!
The official announcement was made in the morning and he flew over in the afternoon. Ram expressed his feelings with his attitude.
As a Liverpool youth player, his career at Liverpool was not successful. At the very least, it is indisputable that he failed to stay in the Liverpool first team.
In fact, he was unlucky.
Originally, the head coach told him to let him go out for training last season. If the results were good, he would start to join the Liverpool first team as a substitute this season, and then next season he could gradually take over the current Liverpool defense and become one of the starters.
Lahm's speed is still very important in the Premier League.
However, man's fate is destined by God.
Just when Liverpool was about to fall from the top team in the Premier League to the level of a first-class team, they backhandedly won the Champions League title!
All the Champions League champions have been won!
Management, why don't you strengthen the team and bring in a few superstars?
If there is a shortage of defenders, let alone the world's best central defender, it's okay to have a few of Bernoulini's level, right?
Of course it would be better if we could trade for a superstar defender in his prime from another strong team!
Fans' expectations have reached this threshold. Now if you say you promote a young player from youth training, do you think the fans will be satisfied?
If Lahm wants to play as a substitute for a strong team in the upper reaches of the Premier League, it is okay, but if he wants to play as a substitute for a top team and a Champions League champion team, then... he is not qualified.
Moreover, the head coach and management cannot bear this kind of pressure and rashly hire new players when the team reaches its peak. This is only done by teams in the decline and trough periods.
As a result, Ram's bright future was shattered in an instant.
He will either be loaned out again or simply sit on the bench for a year, which is a cruel reality.
Fortunately, Sanremo took action at this time and took Ram away.
Lahm has no choice now. The Serie B team is completely worthy of him. What's more, Sanremo also has the Europa League this year, which is not much worse than the top teams in the Portuguese Super League and the Eredivisie.
Unexpectedly, the media had bad words for Sanremo's transaction, and they all believed that Sanremo bought the wrong person.
Can Ram be in a better mood?
"Brother, you came at the perfect time!" Lu Yang gave Ram a warm hug.
Ram's eyes turned red and he almost cried.
It’s better to have Brother Lu!
Everyone looks down on me, but Brother Lu understands me. He knows what a great central defender I will be!
Just as Ram was thinking about it, Lu Yang said in Ram's ear: "I know those rumors have an impact on you. Relax. Although your conditions are difficult to become an excellent central defender, you are in other positions. Say Maybe it can shine brighter?"
Ram died!
Two hours later, Ram completed the signing with the team and then went to Sotu's temporary office in Shanghai SIPG. Only then did he realize that Brother Lu was not joking with him.
It seems that Sanremo didn't buy him because he was a central defender.
With Camichon, Palacios, Bernulini, Nagy, Matias, Canyes, Sanremo has a very strong, well-fitting, and complete defensive starting lineup.
There were even two more people.
These six people can completely allow Sanremo's defense to rotate at full capacity and cope with any emergencies.
Ram is not very competitive here.
Playing as a central defender, he is not as strong as Bernoulini, not as stable and tall as Palacios, and not as tall and able to score goals as Najib.
Playing as a full-back, he is even worse than a professional full-back.
Why did Sanremo buy him?
"Ram, you are a player with very distinctive characteristics. I have talked about you with me a long time ago. To put it bluntly, we agree that in the position of defender, unless you are lucky, it will be difficult for you. Become a first-class central defender." Sotu's words really offended people.
But who made him the butcher?
Ram didn't dare to lose his temper and could only nod and listen.
"But... if your position moves forward, your advantage will actually be very prominent!" Suotu changed the subject, "This is what Lu Yang inspired me."
"You can probably tell from our signings this season what Sanremo needs most right now."
Having said this, Ram would be stupid if he didn't know better. He replied: "Waist?"
Sotu nodded.
Yes, it’s the waist!
This is a dilemma that most teams in football will encounter in the future, and Sanremo has already encountered it.
Sanremo's defensive midfielder is not enough!
Among the Sanremo midfielders, Moric can be used as a deep-lying organizational midfielder. However, this style of play is facing the impact of football trends. The new attacking midfielder led by Iseret and the high-pressure frontcourt led by Barcelona are very destructive to the organization's defensive midfielder.
Versage can play as a defensive midfielder, but only as a defensive midfielder.
Ratuidi can take on this important task, but he is old and needs rotation. One problem is that he is slow and easily eaten alive by speedy players. The second problem is that he is slow.
It is true that Lu Yang can play as a defensive midfielder, and he is very good.
But... putting a player who can score 60 goals and 33 assists throughout the season in the midfielder position is definitely one of the most luxurious things in world football.
It's like buying Messi to defend and Ronaldo to guard the goal.
Even if they really could, no one would use it like this, well...it seems that Paris coach Pochettino has a different view on this.
So while Sanremo has perhaps the best talented midfielder in the world, Lu Yang, they are really starting to lack midfielders.
If the waist is not good, the team will not be good no matter how good it is.
Senior "waist player researcher" Guardiola verified this at the cost of a Champions League trophy.
So Sanremo made an offer for Cortino.
But it's a pity that Turing has a keen eye and won't let people go.
Therefore, Sanremo could only find another way.
At this time, Lu Yang recommended Ram.
Perhaps among central defenders, Lahm's frontal defense, physical confrontation, height, aerial ball contention and defense are all considered average.
But if you put him in the midfielder position, these disadvantages turn into advantages, and even his speed advantage is further strengthened.
He and Ratuidi may be able to form the strongest defensive midfield combination in Serie B!
Of course, if a "double pull" combination like La Toidi and Lahm is played at the same time, then how Sanremo's midfielder should arrange the formation will become a new problem.
But that can all be solved.
"In the new season, Sanremo will adopt two main lineups to cope with different challenges from the league and European games. In one lineup, your main position is to rotate players as a midfielder and central defender, while in the other lineup In the lineup... you will be the starting midfielder or the starting central defender!" Sotu said.
Ram's eyes were instantly filled with light.
He had a hunch that he would follow Sanremo in Serie B and have a big fight!
