Chapter 429: Leaving may not be a better choice

"The score of 6:1 is not perfect, I would rather be 5:0, which shows that our defense in the game is not focused enough, desertion, a player who wants to win the championship must strive for perfection, get rid of all the shortcomings, and conceding a goal means that there are still hidden dangers in our defense."

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho actually expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's defense and believed that the team should not concede a goal. When it came to why he replaced Zheng Zhi in advance, he said, "When the overall situation is decided, I want to try other ways of playing, after all, Zheng needs to go to the Asian Cup, I don't want to lose him, but I have to prepare in advance." ”

"I'm very lucky to have Zheng, as long as he's on the pitch, he can make the game a lot easier, that midfield volley, I don't think even if Maradona was standing there, he wouldn't have been able to score such a wonderful goal."

Accidentally, Maradona was pulled out for a walk again. At this time, how can Maradona do without stepping on a few feet, Maradona's words before the game were quite contemptuous, but Zheng Zhi slapped Maradona in the face with an excellent performance, and also let Maradona's Napoli get a big defeat.

"Zheng was not only the scorer of the campaign, but also the best performer, and he started almost all of Inter's attacks before he went off, showing his centrality in the team. Thanks to Zheng's organisation, we had a complete upper hand on ground advancement, which we didn't see with Inter Milan before. ”

Mourinho then spoke about Adriano, "He's fantastic, we've all seen it, he can score easily, if I don't replace him, he'll still score, as long as he keeps scoring like this, he'll be a world-class striker in no time." ”

……

……

Maradona wanted to secretly leave Meazza by car, but was blocked by a reporter from the newspaper "Milano Sport".

"Diego, what do you think of this match?"

Maradona thought for a moment, "Times have changed, this is a football world dominated by money. It's not that Napoli didn't play well enough, it's that Inter Milan won the game with money. Napoli is not ashamed to lose because they have no money. But if I stand on the pitch, it will be Napoli who will win. ”

Maradona is still hard-mouthed, and he still assumes that he is standing on the court.

"Zheng Zhi scored a goal today and also gave an assist, what do you think of his performance?"

'He just did what he had to do, Inter spent so much money to buy him, he should have behaved like this, isn't that normal? If he can't, that's bad. ”

He still doesn't want to admit Zheng Zhi's excellence.

……

……

However, the media's comments on Zheng Zhi are very fair. They hyped up Zheng Zhi's role.

"Milan Sports News" with the title of "Zheng Zhi's goal directed Inter Milan's big victory again", believes that Inter Milan played very well under the command of the Chinese, and did not give Napoli a chance at all.

"Roma Sport" gave Zheng Zhi a game-high 8 points, believing that he has beautiful footwork and superb passing.

"Torino Sport" commented on Zheng Zhi as the best player in Serie A this week.

The Chinese media also reported the news of Zheng Zhi's goal for the first time, Sina Sports said: One goal and one assist, compared with one goal and two assists in the Champions League, Zheng Zhi's performance has 'fallen', but this is because he only played 45 minutes. For Zheng Zhi, both goals and assists are two fairly simple things. There is reason to believe that Zheng Zhi could replicate last season's glory at Bayer Leverkusen this season. As long as he continues to perform like this, we have reason to believe that Zheng Zhi's name will appear at the European Golden Globe Awards at the end of the year?

"Sports Weekly" gave the headline to Zheng Zhi, and they said in the headline on Monday: The best midfielders in Europe this year are none other than Figo, Zidane, Zheng Zhi, Figo's performance at club and national team is good, Zidane helped France win the European Cup, and Zheng Zhi helped Bayer Leverkusen achieve the treble, and also helped the Chinese team win the Olympic championship, Zheng Zhi is very competitive.

However, the view of "Sports Weekly" is too narrow, and the Ballon d'Or is not only based on midfielders, isn't the forward more competitive?

And on Monday night, Serie A officials also announced that the winner of last week's Serie A player of the best was Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi got his first best after coming to Serie A.

Last week, it was Ronaldo who beat him to the election, and this week it will be his turn to beat Ronaldo.

Zheng Zhi became the cover character of "Sports Battle" and was interviewed by "Sports Battle". The editor-in-chief, Zazaroni, personally went into battle.

When talking about becoming the best of the week, Zheng Zhi was not excited at all.

"I remember when I first landed in the Bundesliga, I also won the Weekly Championship in the second round. I've won the Bundesliga 13 times in the Bundesliga, but it's still special to win it for the first time in Serie A. Ronnie won the best last week and I told him that I would try to get it once, I didn't expect it to be so fast. ”

The next questions are varied.

Zazaroni: "Why did you come up with the idea of building a wall around your mansion?" ”

Zheng Zhi: "I just don't want the paparazzi to crawl around my house, and I don't respect other people's privacy at all." ”

Zazaroni: "So you have a lot of rat traps?" ”

Zheng Zhi: "Yes, there are so many mice, how can I do it if I don't let it go, no one does it, but I like to be a mouse, what can I do?" ”

Zazaroni: "I heard that you have an annual income of $15 million, is that true?" ”

Zheng Zhi: "I haven't calculated these specifically, this is all handled by my agent, but this number should be more real, but now that I have received several endorsements, it should be a lot higher." ”

Zazaroni: "How much higher?" ”

Zheng Zhi: "Five or six million, I don't know the specifics." ”

Zazaroni: ......

It was so shocking that the well-informed Zazaroni had to change the subject, "Your current girlfriend is Bundchen?" ”

Zheng Zhi: "No, we're just ordinary friends. ”

Zazaroni smiled weirdly, not to break his words, ordinary friends? Who doesn't know that you are a big carrot, he continued to ask:

"At Inter, who's your best friend?"

Zheng Zhi said: "That's a lot, Gresco, Pirlo, Ronaldo, the three of us talk a lot, usually Gresco always runs to my house, Pirlo's words, we are more about exchanging football, as for Ronaldo, he doesn't like to come to my house." ”

"Where's Zanetti?"

"He's a very quiet guy, he's a nice guy and he helped me a lot on my first day in Milan."

"Vieri?"

"Bobo is also very nice, he always invites me to nightclubs, but I don't like nightclubs."

……

……

On Wednesday afternoon, in the first leg of the first round of the Coppa Italia, Inter Milan challenged Cagliari away from the second division, and Mourinho sent almost all the substitutes. The team won 2-1 with goals scored by Recoba and Blanco. Vieri handed in another blank in the game and couldn't score against the second division......

Because Pirlo and Zheng Zhi didn't play, Inter Milan's results were not as good as the previous three games, and the gap was very big. Inter Milan, who had scored five goals in the past, suddenly turned into a hard-fought victory. It also reminded Mourinho that it is unrealistic to rely solely on substitutes to play the world.

Mourinho brought back his old squad when they played away at Udinese at the weekend, and the team beat Udinese 3-0 away. The game has become easy and simple again. The goals were scored by Ronaldo, Blanco and substitute Recoba. Adriano stopped the goal and Vieri didn't even get a minute.

In the blink of an eye, the Champions Cup is here again, Inter Milan is at home against Glasgow Rangers, Mourinho is still the main attack, the result is 4:0 Glasgow Rangers, Ronaldo, Pirlo and Zheng Zhi respectively, of which Ronaldo scored twice, Zheng Zhi contributed two assists.

In seven games this season, Inter Milan have won seven and drawn one, without losing a single one.

Next, they will face one of their title rivals, Roma.

And at this time, "Milan Sport" broke the news that AC Milan wanted to get Recoba - Uruguayan player Recoba, who has always been disgruntled with Inter Milan, was targeted by AC Milan and offered a contract with a weekly salary of $160,000 to lure him to join, which will give him a staggering figure of $41.6 million in five years.

Last season was an annoying one for Recoba. His agent, Casal, has been in talks with the club to secure a new contract worth $10,000. In the end, the negotiations did not reach an agreement.

If Recoba can really get such a contract, then his annual salary will surpass the annual salary of Roma's Batistuta and Totti, becoming the highest-paid player in Serie A.

Recoba's contract with Inter Milan will expire at the end of the season, as he is set to become a free transfer player at the end of the season, meaning AC Milan can recruit Recoba as long as they can meet the salary demands of Recoba's agent, Paco Casal.

AC Milan coach Zaccheroni believes that Recoba can make a big difference after joining AC Milan, because this player is not only an excellent striker, but also can play in the midfield position, which will make Zaccheroni more comfortable in the future in terms of formation. At present, AC Milan's Croatian midfielder Boban and Brazilian midfielder Leonardo are both older and certainly not as good as young players in terms of physical strength, while Recoba, who is only 24 years old, fits Zaccheroni's qualifications. He hopes that Recoba can become a great all-rounder and play a central role at AC Milan, just like Juventus' Nedved, Inter Milan's Zheng Zhi, Lazio's Veron and Roma's Totti.

At Inter Milan, however, Recoba has rarely had the opportunity to take on such a role, and there he is the lowest-paid player, earning only $576,000 a year. What's more, the new Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho doesn't seem to appreciate Recoba, often leaving him on the bench, and that alone is enough for Recoba to consider leaving.

However, if AC Milan eventually bring in Recoba, manager Zaccheroni will face a new and more headache, which is the player's salary. According to the weekly salary of 160,000 US dollars, Recoba's annual salary is about 8.3 million US dollars, so he can get 41.6 million pounds in 5 years, so AC Milan's Shevchenko, Albertini and Bierhoff and others will definitely be "red-eyed".

So......

This is unlikely.

Of course, Inter Milan doesn't want to let Recoba go, Inter Milan has been negotiating with Recoba, but the negotiations have reached an impasse, Inter Milan doesn't want to give so much, Recoba and his agent want too much.

The current Inter Milan is not the Inter Milan of last year, there are many strikers, and now there are only four strikers available in the first team, which is pitiful, and Recoba is relatively much more important than before.

Zheng Zhi also heard about it, and he chatted with Recoba on the training ground.

"Álvaro,"

"If you do go to AC Milan, you'll regret it."

"The situation next door is not much better than that of Inter Milan, and in the forward position, no one can guarantee that you will be the main player, not even Zaccheroni. Bierhoff, Shevchenko, Kaka, Komandini, Jose Mari, Shaodati, they have six strikers, plus you, that's seven, as for the midfield? Are they short of midfielders? ”

"You're going to have a worse time than you are now. Now it's not as complicated as you think, and you get playing time in almost every game. ”

"Actually, the only problem is money."

Zheng Zhi said very calmly.

"As long as it's about money, it's negotiable, isn't it?"

"Sometimes, you have to make your own judgment and not listen to the agent."

"It's not good for a lion to open his mouth, without any honor. And you can get a lot of money when you go to Milan, but what about the honor? Can't you see that we are better off than Milan now? ”

"You can just try to make a little concession and get a salary that you think you can do. Calm down, play well and impress Inter with goals. Have you thought about it, now Inter Milan really needs a striker who scores goals consistently, Bobo is not in good shape, Ade is not in good shape, Ronnie may also have physical problems, isn't this your chance? ”

Recoba was silent, analyzing Zheng Zhi's words in his heart.

Yes, I never really thought about leaving Inter Milan, but I couldn't play the main team here and couldn't get the matching salary. If it can be like Zheng Zhi said, then of course it would be good. And this Inter Milan team is full of hope!

Leaving is not necessarily a better choice.
