When it comes to choosing a right back, George has considered many players, such as Sergio Ramos and Daniel Alves currently playing for Sevilla, Porto's José Bosingwa, Serbian defender I Vanovic waited, but in the end, he chose Maicon, who was loaned out to play in Monaco, and listed the future right winger as Tottenham's number one target for signings at the right back position!
Although Monaco's trajectory has changed under the influence of George, what has not changed is that Maicon still joined the French Ligue 1 club last summer and served as the main right back to help Monaco win the Champions League in the 2004-05 season. He entered the semi-finals as a dark horse, became famous in European football, and became one of the high-profile rising defenders!
With such an amazing performance in his first season in Monaco, there are naturally not a few clubs that are interested in and intend to introduce Maicon. For a time, Juventus, Milan, Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea and many other wealthy clubs expressed strong concern for Maicon and planned to introduce Brazilians to strengthen their respective lineups!
And now, Tottenham Hotspur, who magically won the European Champions Cup this season and created another dark horse miracle, have also joined the competition for Maicon! And the most terrible thing is that Tottenham has a natural advantage in introducing Maicon, because the Brazilian is a player they have loaned to Monaco for training!
How difficult is it for the parent team to recall its loaned players? At most, the players just need to put more effort into their ideological work!
"Why are Tottenham so lucky? These players who were loaned to Monaco have all paid their dues!" Seeing that Tottenham can further enhance the team's strength without any effort, during this period, in order not to damage the team's finances, Under the premise of strengthening the lineup and worrying about losing a lot of hair, the old fox Mo inevitably had a lot of envy, jealousy and hatred, "Falcao, Maicon, Meireles, Modric and Thiago Silva. ...If these people can grow up smoothly and choose to return to White Hart Lane, then Tottenham’s bench depth will be really terrible!”
"Luciano, sometimes I think you should feel contented." In response to Moggi's complaint, Juventus's other giant Bettega shrugged and comforted his old partner in a relaxed tone, "You are the most satisfied now. I think so. Fortunately, Tottenham are not interested in Falcao because they have Klose and Drogba as two great centers. Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to win this Colombian tiger now."
At the end of last year, FIFA changed its transfer rules and announced that starting from January 1, 2005, players can transfer twice within one year. That's why Falcao was able to join Juventus this summer after being bought out by Monaco first. Otherwise, even if the Colombian center wants to play for the Bianconeri, Moggi will not be able to make a transfer offer for him - they don't want to buy a player who will be suspended for a year upon arrival.
Therefore, after learning that Tottenham was preparing to recycle Maicon to take over Stephen Carr, the transfer battle came to an end in an instant. Rich clubs from all walks of life came to take advantage of the excitement and then returned disappointed. They watched with great envy as Tottenham acquired this promising Brazilian right back!
By the way, Maicon was somewhat resistant to returning to Tottenham at the beginning. However, Paratici quickly convinced the Brazilian with his excellent eloquence, and the reason he gave was quite straightforward-we Tottenham are the Champions League champions and have defeated Juventus, Real Madrid and AC Milan. The three top giants have won the championship trophy. I wonder which team in Europe can do this now? Furthermore, if you go to other giants, you won't be used as the main force anyway, and head coaches like Capello and Ancelotti don't like to rotate. If that's the case, then why not accept Tottenham's arrangement and return to White Hart Lane to prepare to succeed Stephen Carr, who is coming of age?
Despite having a pretty good season in Monaco, Maicon is still quite aware of his own baggage. He knows that with his current evaluation and performance level, it will be difficult to get the main position and stable playing time in those top giants!
The reason why Maicon in his previous life was favored by Inter Milan shortly after his transfer to Manchester United failed and quickly settled into the main right back position was because of the strong recommendation of compatriot Adriano and Mancini's order to solve the problem of Figo's old The problem is to move Zanetti forward to the wide midfielder. Now, Inter Milan is negotiating with Real Madrid about the transfer of Figo to strengthen the right wing, and team captain Zanetti is at his peak. Maicon, who did not have the opportunities in his previous life, naturally cannot get many opportunities in Pinetina!
To be honest, Maicon has not received an evaluation consistent with his true strength, which is inseparable from Deschamps' tactical play that emphasizes offense and neglects defense. Although the French coach has set off an offensive frenzy in Monaco that has attracted everyone's attention in the past two years, he has promoted many frontcourt attackers such as Giuly, Pulsaud, Morientes and Falcao, and played jaw-dropping At the same time, his playing style is not very friendly to backcourt players such as Evra, Thiago Silva and Maicon. They often encounter situations where they face the opponent's forwards directly during the game, or they are exploited by their opponents in their defense zone because of too much pressure on the offensive end. As a result, many of them receive similar evaluations, and thus they are invisibly suppressed. People's psychological expectations and ability assessments of them.
Therefore, after listening to Paratici's words, especially knowing from the other party that Phil Neville will not appear at the right back position next season, Maicon can't help but look forward to returning to Tottenham. !
At this time, the benefits of George's preference to rotate the lineup during the season are reflected. Almost all players playing in Europe now know that as long as you are good enough, have a correct attitude towards the game, and can integrate into Tottenham's tactical system, then players absolutely don't have to worry about their playing time!
Moreover, playing a rotation with Karl, who has been troubled by knee injuries... no matter how you look at it, he will definitely have no shortage of playing opportunities!
In contrast, among the wealthy clubs interested in Maicon, AC Milan has Cafu, Inter Milan has Zanetti, Juventus' Zebina is not stable but is also trusted by Capello, and Barcelona And Manchester United also have Belletti and Gary Neville on staff. In other words, no matter which team Maicon goes to, it will be difficult for him to get the main position immediately!
Seeing that Maicon no longer had negative emotions about returning to Tottenham to play football, Paratici couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief - although Tottenham could choose to forcibly recall Maicon, but in this case, the players It is very likely that under the influence of emotions, there will be a situation where the work is not effective. Therefore, it is undoubtedly very important in Paratici's view to get through the ideological work of these players!
