This summer, the transfer market has been a little quiet so far, and compared to the sky-high transfer fees set by Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo last year, this summer seems to have fallen a lot. Villa, who transferred from Valencia to Barcelona from Valencia www.biquge.info is still worth 40 million euros, but this price is less than half of last year's Cristiano Ronaldo.

Before that, many media thought that after the World Cup in South Africa, some superstars and talented new stars would shake the transfer market, but it backfired. German newcomer Thomas Müller is still at Bayern Munich and has not yet shown any signs of making a sky-high transfer price. However, there is still some time before the transfer market closes, and in the remaining month or so, the possibility of a miracle cannot be ruled out, although judging by the current trend, this is not very likely.

Zhang Shujie and Li Mu are most concerned about Parma's movements, as of mid-July, Parma, which is in poor financial condition, does not have too many personnel turnovers, but on July 4, it was announced that they would permanently buy out Manchester City's abandoned Bodinov, in addition to Lanzafame will return to Juventus, and there are some painless transfers, most of which are midfielders, and will not constitute a competition for Zhang and Li.

The biggest impact on them was the departure of manager Guidolin, who did not want to leave Parma before, and only he knew why he had to leave suddenly. As early as June 2, Guidolin was ready to leave, and the club had prepared a replacement for him, this person was the former Udinese coach Marino.

During that time, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu were busy with the national team and had no time to pay attention to Parma, and then they had to deal with personal matters in the next few days, and then watched the World Cup. Although they also learned that Guidolin was leaving, they both thought it was a joke, and it was only recently, when they turned their attention to Europe again, that Guidolin was really leaving.

I wonder if Manzo will continue to stay in Parma?

Guidolin's departure and Marino's arrival did not make much of a splash in the football world, and it was not enough for a small team and two coaches with no accolades on their sleeves to attract the attention of the public. Especially a few days ago, there was the big news of Mourinho from Milan to Madrid, and the reporters all turned their cameras on the crazy coach who led Inter Milan to an unprecedented five-time title, and Zhang Shujie's attention was also attracted by Mourinho's transfer.

If nothing else, perhaps the biggest news in the transfer market this summer will not be made by the players, but by Jose Mourinho.

There won't be any more games in July, and the players who have worked hard in South Africa for a month can finally take a good break. On August 11, the Chinese team will play a friendly match between Nanning and Bahrain, and Zhang Shujie and several others were still called by Gao Hongbo, with the exception of Yan Tao.

On the day of the game, Gao Hongbo held the idea of training and let Ma Junqiang appear as the main force, and then Zhang Shujie, Li Mu, and Zhao Wenkang were also replaced in the second half, and none of them scored. The final result of this game was 1:1, Ma Junqiang had been replaced when the Chinese team conceded the goal, and the goalkeeper of Belgium's Sint-Truiden held the goal for 45 minutes, and his performance was remarkable, and he was the best of the four foreign players.

Zhang Shujie originally scored a goal in the game, but it was blown off by the referee, on the grounds that the referee thought that Zhang Shujie had handballed, but judging from the slow motion, Zhang Shujie used his shoulder to catch the ball, and the ball did not touch his hand, and this penalty was undoubtedly misjudged.

Li Mu also had a shot on goal that was quite threatening, and Zhao Wenkang also tried to shoot once, but unfortunately he couldn't score. Li Mu's shot still hit the bottom edge of the crossbar, and after bounced into the penalty area, it was destroyed by the opposing defender.

The result of the game made the fans and the media not very satisfied, they thought that the Chinese team had defeated South Korea and France, so it would definitely be okay to win Barry, but the Chinese team only played a draw by taking advantage of the home field, as the head coach knew that Gao Hongbo would inevitably be criticized by reporters and fans, but Gao Hongbo remained silent from beginning to end. There was no response to the media and not much was said about the performance of the players.

After the end of this game, Zhang Shujie and the four foreign players will return to the club to prepare for pre-season training. In order to save time, they did not go home and took a flight to Europe the next day to report to the team.

***************

Serie A Parma.

When Zhang Shujie and Li Mu came to the team, it was already the thirteenth, and the team's training officially began today. As usual, European teams have already started pre-season run-in training, but due to the World Cup, many teams have slightly extended the holiday for a few days, on the grounds that they are worried that the players will be too tired to play continuously and will not be in the best condition.

Parma also has some national team members in this small team, but they are all weak football countries and basically miss the World Cup. However, since August 11 was the international break, and these members of the national team returned to China to participate in the competition, Marino simply set the time for joint training on the 13th, and the league will not officially start until the 29th, and there is still half a month to run in.

In fact, at the beginning of August, in addition to the international break, some matches have also been played, such as the qualifying round of the Champions League, the first round of the Coppa Italia, etc. However, Parma did not play in this season's Champions League, and their eighth-place finish in the Coppa Italia last season did not have to start in the first round of the Coppa Italia until December.

There are a lot of people in and out of the team, but Zhang Shujie is relieved to see that Manzo is still there. Due to the departure of Lanzaframé, Zhang Shujie took over the No. 9 jersey, to be precise, Manzo proposed to Marino to hand over the No. 9 jersey to Zhang Shujie, and Parma's No. 10 jersey was temporarily vacant, and it was also Manzo's suggestion that Li Mu got the shirt.

The existence of Manzo can take care of Zhang Shujie and Li Mu to some extent. Besides, Marino doesn't care about the jersey number, no matter what number of jersey he wears, he can't play enough and can't have a chance to play.

If you want to play, you have to rely on your quality to fight for it, not on which shirt you wear.

As the so-called three fires for new officials to take office, Marino doesn't know how to light this fire. Today is the first day of training, and Marino, like any other coach, has to restructure the team.

Despite Parma's eighth-place finish last season, there was a lot of turnover in the squad, and with no rule out that there would be people coming or going in the next 20 days, Marino had to make a change.

To put it nicely, it is an adjustment, but it is actually a dismount.

"Well, from today onwards, I will be your boss and lead you for a year. I don't know how Guidolin coaches you, and I don't want to know. If you work under my hands, you must be at my disposal. ”

Marino said this to the players in the dressing room. Everyone can hear the meaning of this, if you rely on your ability or qualifications to be old enough to disobey, then sorry, the bench will be your long-term waiting.

This is really a dismount!

Zhang Shujie glanced at Morrone, who was sitting next to him, the old captain's expression was serious, and he couldn't see any emotional changes, the other players were okay for the time being, and the veteran Crespo was also calm, after all, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, and it had long been commonplace, only Palosky and other young players frowned slightly.

Newcomers such as Paletta, Marques and others are unlikely to protest against the coach because they are newcomers.

Marino seemed to be pleased with the reaction, so he added: "I've seen the video of your game last season, and on the whole, your performance is not very good, if it weren't for the last month or so of the rebound, coupled with the poor results of your rivals, I am afraid you would still be struggling in the relegation army." ”

This sentence made the players can't help whispering, it is true that the whole season, everyone's performance is indeed not the top, but everyone is working hard, especially during the relegation period, the players have played a high-quality game, and can be promoted from thirteenth to eighth place in the final stage, indispensable to the hard work and struggle of the players, and secondly, even if everyone has no credit, there is hard work. But today, Marino thought it was a "rebound" and a "poor record of the relegation opponent", which made Parma pick up a big bargain.

Marino's words were indeed a little excessive, he did this in order to "suppress the field", but he was not a famous teacher with great achievements, and he did not receive any honors, and when he said such words, everyone was naturally unconvinced.

I think that when Mourinho first went to Chelsea, he faced a large group of top stars such as Lampard and Terry, in order to suppress these kings, he said straight to the point: "I am a championship coach, and now you are nothing!" Mourinho naturally has his own qualifications, he has already won the European championship at that time, but Chelsea has not even won the Premier League, let alone the Champions League.

Marino's approach today is quite similar to Mourinho's back then, except that he is not as crazy as the "madman" in terms of words. Mourinho has his own capital, he has a title, but Marino has nothing.

Zhang Shujie whispered to Li Mu: "Papaya, do you think it's appropriate for him to say this as soon as he comes up?"

Li Mu shrugged: "I don't want to make any comments, there have been very few reports about his coaching in China before, and we don't know what the level is." ”

"If he can surprise the team and the fans at the beginning of his tenure like Jose Mourinho, then I will admit it. ”

When the two teenagers talked in a low voice, Marino's gaze happened to be elsewhere, so he didn't see it, and when he swept his gaze, the two had stopped talking.

The locker room gradually quieted down, only Marino's voice continued to echo: "I don't know what your training time was like before, but I think I need to redefine it for everyone, at 7:45 in the morning, everyone will eat in the club's cafeteria, at 8:30 in the locker room, I will explain the basic tactical essentials to everyone, and then officially start training at 9 o'clock, the time is about 90 minutes to two hours, and the afternoon training starts at 4 o'clock, the time is about two hours." You don't have an opinion, do you?"

The players have no objection to this, and this routine is not much different from when Guidolin was in the past, which is completely acceptable. In fact, even if everyone doesn't accept it, Marino is the coach, and everything in the team is up to him.

"Very good, there is no objection to my arrangement, I am very happy. I know how Guidolin trained before, he seems to have trained too little in the physical area, we all know that the physical confrontation in modern football is very important, and I will strengthen your physical and strength training in the future training. ”

Marino was telling the truth, and even Manzo agreed. Last season, Guidolin did not train the players physically, basically in formation, tactics and run-in, which is also because there are several players with good skills in the team, which makes Guidolin determined to follow the technical flow. Of course, this doesn't mean that he didn't arrange strength training, it's just that he didn't lead everyone to do it together, and they all went to train separately.

Marino decided to do some strengthening in this regard, to improve his strength and increase the intensity of his body's confrontation within the scope of the players' physical condition.

More importantly, Marino will also have some trade-offs in the selection of formations and personnel. He said: "In my coaching style, there are capable people, regardless of nationality, regardless of skin color, regardless of age, regardless of race, as long as they have the ability, they can get more playing time. I know you have a couple of good attacking players here, so to speak, it's overcrowded, and I can't guarantee that all of you will be able to play, so it's up to you. Marino smiled a little slyly as he spoke.

Good Marino, is this for everyone to start intra-team competition on the offensive line?

Every team has internal competition, which, if done right, can create a change of direction that benefits both the player and the team, but if it is not handled properly, it can become a contradiction. Marino made this kind of statement clear at this time, is it the pros or cons?

Manzo, who was standing beside him, didn't speak, just turned his head to look at him, and then turned his head back to look at Zhang Shujie and Li Mu.

Marino looked around at the players, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and finally he smiled: "I'm not going to schedule any training this morning, you guys are free to do and come back at four o'clock in the afternoon." After speaking, he looked at Manzo: "Andrea, you stay for a while, I have something to say to you." ”

Manzo nodded, "No problem. ”

Marino then said to the players: "That's the end of the morning's instructions, at four o'clock in the afternoon, I hope you will be on time at the training ground." Disband!"
