Vieri, the king of Inter Milan in the past few years, during the period when Ronaldo was injured and left, he carried the forward line of Inter Milan alone, in Cooper's tactics, he was the most important player in the front, and for a long time, Toldo's save and Vieri's goal became Inter's only attacking method.

Dick admits that Vieri was the best Vieri in those years, but he also knows that since the beginning of this season, his form has begun to decline, in fact, after scoring 24 goals in 24 league games in the 02-03 season to become the top scorer in Serie A, Vieri's form has declined, he made 22 appearances last season, but only scored 13 goals, and injuries are increasing......

Even when Vieri was at his peak, Dick didn't want him, he was strong enough to be the core of any team, but although he was strong, he was also a player who was easily injured, and Inter Milan was a few times so close to the championship, because in the situation around him, there were some games where he was injured and couldn't play, and the performance of the whole Inter Milan began to decline, which is not in line with Dick's coaching philosophy.

Dick didn't need to have one of the most important players, he only needed a few important players, and under his men, he didn't need any kings, he just needed an army that was disciplined and obedient to command.

Whether it was asking Inter Milan not to rush to buy back Ade last winter, or now wanting to sell Vieri, he has come with this philosophy.

Kiko was abolished at Atletico because he knew that Kiko's strength had dropped very much, and the sale of Amoruso at Dortmund was because his high salary and relatively exclusive way of playing made Dick not need this player, and Inter Milan ...... It's because he doesn't need a king in the locker room.

So after thinking about it for a while, Dick dialed Vieri's number.

"Mr. Christian Vieri? I'm Dick. ”

"Hello, Mr. Dick." Vieri didn't care when he answered the phone, although Cooper was gone and a Dick came, he didn't feel that his position would be shaken, and he had heard of Dick's previous miracles, and he very much wanted to get some decent honors under Dick.

"Mr. Vieri, I think you already know about me becoming the manager of Inter Milan...... Yes, I made this call today to confirm all the players. I'm a form-oriented manager, in my eyes, there is no difference between the main team and the substitute, and anyone who wants to play the main team needs to show their good form in training. Inter Milan will have a lot of good strikers this season, I hope you can adjust your form, otherwise, I will not reserve an absolute main position for you. ”

Dick's words made Vieri stunned for a moment, although Dick said that he only looked at the state of the game, but for Vieri, he has become accustomed to being the most important striker in any team, Dick's words, is there something else in it?

"Mr. Dick, I think I'm in good shape and can perform at my best." Vieri also said politely that he had proven himself in the past time and that he felt he was qualified to say such things to anyone.

"No, Mr. Vieri, you weren't in great form last season...... I'm going to develop a new tactic for Inter Milan, what I need is for everyone to play around this new tactic, to obey the command, I'm going to give the players on the pitch a lot of freedom, but that's the freedom that needs to be under my control, you get the idea? The pre-season training camp will begin on 25 July, and players who have participated in the European Championship can come back to the team for a week, which is 2 August, and we will talk about it in more detail at that time...... Good luck to the European Championships. ”

Seeing Dick hang up, Vieri looked at the phone and fell into deep thought.

This new head coach...... Don't seem to value yourself? Thinking back to when Dick was the first to abolish or sell a striker captain-level figure in Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, Vieri had this doubt - does he also want to abolish or sell himself to Liwei?

And Dick called himself like this at the beginning, does it mean that he has been authorized by Inter Milan? Is it because of his remarks last year that the Inter Milan club began to be dissatisfied with itself?

Last summer, when Inter Milan sold Crespo and bought Cruz to fill the squad, Vieri once went berserk in the dressing room, saying, "I want to hang the managers of Inter Milan one by one!" Although this did not cause any repercussions at the time, it also made Vieri very depressed for a period of time and did not perform well, and the poor results of Inter Milan last season also had a lot to do with his poor form......

Coupled with the previous salary cut, 02 and the league championship passed by...... When all this came to mind, Vieri began to feel a little angry.

"I'm not a player that no one wants!" Vieri sneered in his heart, Capello is now in charge of Juventus, and he has said before after confirming that Vieri is the striker he admires the most, and he hopes to bring him to Juventus......

Even if he goes back to Juventus, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing, after all, he made a name for himself at Juventus, even if he can't go to Juventus, it's not bad to go to another team in Milan, where his good friend Inzaghi is there.

Thinking of this, Vieri called his agent.

"You know the news that Dick has taken over Inter Milan, right? He just called me......"

Vieri told his agent everything about Dick's conversation with himself, and the agent frowned after listening: "Bobo, Dick seems to want to get rid of people......

"I'm aware of it, too." Vieri replied in a deep voice.

"Actually, staying in Inter Milan now is also a good choice, no matter what Dick's reputation is, he does have the ability, the probability of winning the championship is very high, if you stay in Inter Milan, the possibility of winning the championship will be very high."

"If I were to be a substitute......"

Vieri's words were not finished, but the agent knew what he meant, and with Vieri's status, he won a championship as a substitute, so it was better not to take it.

"I see, but don't worry Bobo, you've got a team that's going to ...... I'll be sure to get in touch with you. The broker finally said.

The connection between Vieri and the agent, Dick is not clear, but he doesn't care what Vieri thinks, if he is willing to obey discipline to stay, it is not impossible to consider, as long as he does not make trouble, Vieri is still very useful, the key is that Dick is not willing to leave a striker who still wants to be a king, but no longer has the strength of a king, in his mind, Inter Milan now needs to play overall football, not superstitious about a certain player......

Dick didn't know why Cooper, who played pretty good overall football in Valencia, started to play the uglier defensive stack after coming to Inter Milan and counterattacked with this tactic of relying on Bobo, but at least for him, he would not use this tactic.

Cruise, Adriano, Martins, these three players will have a big role next season, Adriano is the main force, he will also find another striker, Cruz and Martins as substitutes are enough, Recoba and Vieri, willing to stay as substitutes, he will find a way to let everyone have a chance to play, and guarantee the results, if he is not willing to stay, he doesn't care.

Called the players who didn't want to stay, and then called the players who would be sure to stay, the new coach took over, if you are a little confused about the future, it is easy to cause instability in the army, as long as you let them know in advance whether they are going to stay or not, naturally there will not be too many problems.

In particular, some players who did not perform very well last season but are famous will be more nervous at this time, such as Cannavaro, such as Materazzi, such as Zanetti......

But Dick first made a phone call to his old department.

"Julio, I'm Dick."

"Hello Mr. Dick, I'm glad you to be here at Inter Milan, I really didn't expect it......" Cruise, who usually seems relatively silent, seemed to be gushing at this moment, and it seemed that he was indeed excited......

"I didn't expect you to come to Inter Milan...... It also makes me happy. You may not be a regular next season, but your place at the club will be important, you know? Don't have any other pressure, just take a good vacation and get ready to come back for the training camp. Dick said with a smile.

"I see, sir." Cruise replied quickly.

Then Dick called three members of the Italian national team who participated in the European Championship, including Cannavaro, Materazzi and Zanetti, and said to Cannavaro that you are in my plan, I have a way to solve the problem that several of your central defenders cannot coexist, and he reassured Materazzi, after all, Materazzi's performance was a bit poor last season, and as for Zanetti, Dick also told the other party, you are in my plan.

Young Nigerian striker Martins, Greek Karagunis, Pandev returning from loan from Ancona, Spanish midfielder Farinos, Argentine wide player Kieli, young Pasquale, substitute central defender Adani, Dick told them that you will be in the first team next season, but the main position is not guaranteed, more likely to play as a substitute, if you can accept it, you will stay, there will be no chance to play, if you are not willing to stay, go out on loan or seek a transfer, it's up to you.

Except for Martins, who played a lot of games last season, the rest of these players are basically marginal players, so naturally they don't have too many ideas, and Dick doesn't know how many they will stay, just substitutes...... It's also easy to find, and it's not so easy for other teams to dig these players, at least without the right price, Dick won't let them go.

As for Stankovic, who joined last season in the winter, Dick also called him: "Dejan, don't worry, although I haven't come to Inter Milan when you transfer, but I am very familiar with your characteristics and know them very well, you are part of my plan, and you can prepare for the next pre-season training camp with peace of mind." ”

Zanetti and Cordoba are the two captains and vice-captains, Dick did not call, Moratti has done this thing, in the new season, they are still an important part of the team, the specific arrangements, Dick plans to wait until the pre-season training camp to tell them.
