18. Farewell
It should be said that outside netizens guessed accurately, Zhang Sheng's requirements for the team this season are really similar to the top four, that is, to enter the top three of the Chinese Super League and ensure the qualification for the AFC Champions League. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info but this goal is similar to Arsenal's fourth place in the Premier League to qualify for the Champions League!
And there are more attentive netizens and specialized in the annual history of the Dragon Club's buying and selling players. They found out that the Dragon Club really had another Arsenal trait: a captain who went out a year.
The earliest captain of the Longteng team was Li Fei, but he only played one season in the amateur league of the Longteng team before retiring, and then stayed in the team as a coach, which is the only captain who started and finished well. Then the position of the captain of the Longteng team fell on Li Yun, but Li Yun was sold to Red Bull Salzburg the next year after playing in the second division, and the team's vice captain Qin Minghao went with him.
It was Deng Chaoqun who took over the armband of the captain of the Longteng team, and Shu Jun was the vice captain. It's a pity that Deng Chaoqun, who has only been getting the captain's armband for half a season, was sold at the end of the season.
Then fans compared Arsenal's record of selling captains, and the seven successive captains Vieira, Thierry Henry, Gilberto Silva, Galla, Cesc Fabregas, Robin van Persie and Vermaelen were all sold. Some netizens asserted: "I bet with you that the Longteng team will sell another captain next year, if they don't sell it, I will eat Xiang live broadcast!"
The following is the reply of a group of people: "Sit and wait for the landlord to eat Xiang!" "Equal!" "How can such an exciting thing be without me!"
However, the fans still recognize the attitude of the Longteng team to vigorously cultivate young players and let young players play games, after all, there are only a handful of people in China who are willing to let young players play games and play results. Everyone praised the head coach of the Longteng team, Zhang Sheng, for his ability to cultivate young players. He specializes in picking players that others don't want, or players who can't be played for various reasons, and then basically brings them in for free and then trains them to play. Fans also compared Zhang Sheng with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, thinking that Zhang Sheng is more bullish. After all, Arsenal's Arsene Wenger is still looking for a little demon with potential and a little fame, Zhang Sheng is looking for a player that everyone doesn't know at all, and such a player can also be cultivated, so there are really a few brushes.
Some fans said: "I really hope that China can have more coaches like Zhang Sheng, train a bunch of good young players, and then spread them to the Chinese league to make the game level higher." ”
Someone below said: "Didn't the Longteng team suffer a loss, and the players who worked hard to cultivate were all taken away by other teams?"
The fans' answer is ridiculous: "It doesn't matter, as long as the Longteng team is not relegated, I am happier if he sells more people, anyway, I am not a fan of any Chinese Super League team, I am not afraid of big things when I watch the excitement!"
While the fans on the Internet were having a lot of fun, Zhang Sheng was also in the club to bid farewell to the players who had transferred out one by one.
The first ones to come over were Deng Chaoqun and Gao Jun, who transferred to Guangzhou Evergrande.
Deng Chaoqun's first sentence when he saw Zhang Sheng was: "Boss, I'm sorry." ”
Zhang Sheng was very open-minded and said with a smile: "There's no need to say sorry to me." You're all professional footballers, and from the first day I brought you into the team, I never had the delusion of being stuck in your own team. It's normal for you to have your own thoughts. Besides, to be able to train you and be looked upon by a world-class coach like Lippi means that Lippi also has to recognise my ability to develop players. ”
Deng Chaoqun said: "Boss, Gao Jun and I can't help it. As you know, Gao Jun and I have been practicing football since we were children, and my family has spent a lot of money since I started practicing football. Before practicing football, my parents still had some savings, but before I joined the Longteng team, my family already owed hundreds of thousands, all in order to spend money to give gifts to the previous coach. Gao Jun is even worse than me, his parents sold the house in order to give gifts to the leader, so they counted on him to kick it out. If it weren't for you, we ... But now the family also needs us to earn money to pay off their debts and help them improve their lives. ”
When Deng Chaoqun said this, Gao Jun also lowered his head and did not say a word.
Zhang Sheng sighed, shook his head and said: "Your choice is not wrong, you have the ability to get more income, and I will not stop you, but I only hope that after you go to Evergrande, don't forget the difficulties you have in entering professional football, and cherish your opportunities." ”
Deng Chaoqun and Gao Jun said in unison: "Boss, we understand what you mean! We are the people who went out of the Longteng team, and we will not let others look down on us." ”
Zhang Sheng patted Deng Chaoqun and Gao Jun on the shoulders respectively and said, "Come on." We'll see you on the pitch later. ”
After sending Deng Chaoqun and Gao Jun away, it was Xu Di and Sun Yu who came over again, and the two of them were a little embarrassed to come in. After all, the other players were bought by the team a long time ago, and the two of them were only contacted by Shanghai Shenhua at the end of the season, which can be said to disrupt Zhang Sheng's tactical arrangements for next season to a certain extent. Especially Xu Di, in the case that the team does not have a good goalkeeper substitute, it is still very inappropriate to propose to leave, but fortunately, Zhou Wei in the team is still able to keep up.
It was Xu Di who spoke first, and he said, "Boss, I'm really sorry!"
Zhang Sheng didn't mean to be angry at all, and said: "Deng Chaoqun and Gao Jun in front have already said the same thing once, you don't want to come to pick up people's teeth! They are all professional players, and it is normal for them to transfer, so you can come to me to have a look before you leave, it's already very good." ”
Sun Yu seemed very calm: "Shanghai is very sincere, they promised that if we perform well, they will give us a house in Shanghai, although it is not only more than 100 square meters, but for the two of us, the more important thing is the Shanghai hukou." Boss, you also know that Xu Di and I are from northern Jiangsu and Anhui, and our relatives, including our parents, are all working in Shanghai, and for them our Shanghai hukou is priceless. ”
Zhang Sheng also nodded, he also knew that there were a lot of people in northern Jiangsu and Anhui in Shanghai, and many people spent their lives just for a suite in Shanghai, and as for the hukou, they couldn't even think of it. Many girls in these two places find a very ordinary man in Shanghai to marry for a Shanghai hukou for a very good condition, just for a Shanghai hukou book (not that I slander the people in these two places, but in reality).
Zhang Sheng has nothing to say about this, everyone is not a separate person, they all have their own families and their own life circles. Even the pros, sometimes they have to think about their families.
Zhang Sheng could only stretch out his hand to them and said: "Family is very important, you are all in your twenties and almost thirties, and your family is the one to rely on for so many years of life after retiring." I hope you play well, we will be opponents when we meet in the future, and my men will not show mercy. ”
Sun Yu also smiled and said: "We won't either, boss, you have been teaching us to do our best in the game, we will keep it in mind." ”
Zhang Sheng hammered Sun Yu's shoulder and said with a smile: "You kid, just wait to be abused by us when the time comes." ”
After sending Xu Di and Sun Yu away, Zhang Sheng ushered in Wang Peng and Liu Xing, which shows that the players still have a very tacit understanding.
As soon as Zhang Sheng met, he spoke first: "You don't want to say sorry to me, do you?"
Wang Peng and Liu Xing were also stunned, obviously being said by Zhang Sheng.
Wang Peng, who is still more extroverted, said: "Boss, we are the opponent of the Longteng team." A few days ago, Brother Yun called me and scolded me, saying that I didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and I didn't have the ability to be the boss and still wanted to be the boss. But I always wanted to give it a try, and maybe I would succeed. ”
Zhang Sheng actually agreed with Li Yun's words. With Wang Peng's current ability, if he is concentrating on defending on the field, at the level of the Chinese Super League, he is the top defender in China, but if he still wants to be distracted and command the defense, with his ability, it is really more than enough and not enough. And it is very likely that the lack of concentration will lead to mistakes on the court.
Zhang Sheng felt that he still needed to remind him: "Wang Peng." You're a good centre-back, but to say you have the ability to command a defender, you're not qualified right now. To achieve that, you need at least 5 years of experience at a high level. Otherwise, in the future competition, you will still have to suffer. ”
In the face of Zhang Sheng's words, Wang Peng still trusted him very much, not to mention that Li Yun had also called him before, and also mentioned his lack of ability. But even if he can't command the defense for the time being, Wang Peng at least wants an absolute position as the main central defender, which Zhang Sheng can't give him.
Wang Peng also expressed his attitude again: "I think I still need more games to exercise my command skills." ”
Zhang Sheng didn't say much about Liu Xing, Liu Xing's transfer this time was heard to be operated by his father behind his back, and he could only wish him good luck.
The last to find Zhang Sheng is Zhou Hai, for this player, Zhang Sheng actually likes it very much, he belongs to the kind of player who is conscientious on the field and doesn't talk much off the field, but he will always be trustworthy, if it weren't for Zhou Hai himself who needs to play games to maintain the position of the national team, Zhang Sheng very much hopes that he will stay in the team and bring newcomers.
Zhou Hai still has a lot of respect for Zhang Sheng, after all, it was Zhang Sheng who pulled him when he was about to quit professional football because of injury, and he himself changed from a player who was not wanted by others to an international player, although only a substitute. Now for the position of the national team, he can't play the main force in the Longteng team, so he can only choose to transfer.
After sending Zhou Hai away, Zhang Sheng could only wish him a good future in Luneng. Zhang Sheng also focused on the preparation of the new season and began to set off with the team to Kunming for a two-week training camp. (To be continued.) )
