Chapter Seventy-Nine: Headache
If you want to say that you are not tempted by the opportunity to be in charge of the Turin team, it must be so fake that it can't be fake, but from Valentino Cairo's words just now, Li Mudi feels that this kid seems to be wishful thinking! That's a bit unreliable. All kinds of thoughts in my head, I couldn't come to any conclusion when I was about to "overclock", so I simply asked: "What do you mean by transformation?" And why do you think so highly of me? It can't really be because I've beaten a few young players before! After that, I still felt very interesting, and smiled unconsciously.
The topic has changed from ordinary chatting to "Longzhong Pair", and the handsome little guy who has not been very careful before has also become serious and restrained his smile. After motioning to the waiter to change a new cup of coffee for the two of them, he replied in a solemn tone: "We have to admit that the foundation of modern football has completely changed from heritage and tradition to gold yuan, and without money, you can't play in this circle." Looking at the whole of Europe and the world, any club that has always been outstanding has extremely strong financial resources, and even a small surplus can hardly make the team competitive enough in the European battlefield. From the Champions League in recent years, it can be seen that the champions after 2010: Barcelona, Chelsea, Bayern and Real Madrid, which one is not the master of spending a lot of money? Without this pride and confidence, there is no play at all, Milan's two teams have completely sunk, it depends on whether the tycoons in your country can increase investment and change all the lineups after buying the past. Let me reveal another secret to you, Juventus are also going to make a move after years of disappointment in the Champions League. Do you know which superstar they'll be chasing in the summer? After speaking, there was an expression of admiration and disdain intertwined.
While listening to the other party's eloquent conversation, Li Mudi, who was thinking about it, didn't react at all when he heard this seemingly casual question, and casually said a name "Higuain", and then ...... There was silence between the two of them again......
The cold sweat of the Castile coach flowed down at once, and he hurriedly picked up the hot coffee that had just been served, and took a sip of it carefully, regardless of the temperature that was still a little hot, to cover up the astonishing "prophecy" just now. And Valentino Cairo's expression on the opposite side is very interesting at the moment, the expression of being scared to tell the other party the shocking secret, coupled with the shock caused by Li Mudi's "one word to break the sky", the two feelings are mixed together, making the facial expression so awkward, like a funny clown making the audience laugh.
After a long pause, the "prince" of the Turin club sorted out his mentality, and after taking a sip of coffee, he asked in a tone full of doubts: "This is really amazing!" How did you know Juventus wanted to buy Higuain? You must know that this deal is still only an intention, except for a very few people, but there is no wind leaking out at all. I know that it was also because my father was planning to buy a stake in CRS from their club's parent company, EXOR, and found some clues from the financial documents during the preliminary investigation, and I happened to accompany my father to dinner with the president of Napoli the other day, and he asked us about Belotti's worth and trading possibilities, which we vaguely guessed. But you're ......."
Nima, this B is big! With such a high-level secret, you can say it casually without any possibility of knowing, which makes the storyline develop in the direction of fantasy! Fortunately, Xiao Li has always been a little anxious, and hurriedly explained: "The old lady is now a dominant situation in Italy, even if she doesn't recruit her, with this plastic surgery alone, she won't encounter any trouble in the league for two or three seasons." If they want to strengthen it, it must be for the Champions League, and now the appeal of Serie A is obviously not as good as the Premier League and the Western Super League, and there is obviously no chance of buying those top superstars from the outside, and some young talents who are still in the growth period cannot immediately bring immediate combat power to the team, so they can only dig from within your league. The remaining nineteen teams in the entire Serie A, it is really hard to find one that is stronger than Dybala and Mandzukic, maybe Inter's Icardi can be regarded as one, but if you want to say that the hottest and most powerful super striker at present, then in addition to Higuain, who has scored 30 goals in 28 rounds of the league, who else can there be? ”
After explaining, he pretended to be very comfortable, picked up the coffee that was already at the right temperature, and tasted it carefully, how handsome (cheap) and handsome (cheap) the expression was.
Valentino Cairo is also a person with a strong ability to accept, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what he said was indeed true, and after recovering from the shock just now, he admired Li Mudi even more in his heart, and he couldn't wait to hold the other party's hands and let go, and said in his mouth, "Mr. is really my Wolongye!" ”……
After admiring the other party's amazing analysis and prediction ability, the little fan brother continued to answer the previous question: "Where did you just go?" Oh, it's capital investment. This is the case in Serie A now, since the end of the 'small World Cup' of that year, this league has withdrawn from the top ranks, and it is not at all the opponent of the highly developed Premier League in terms of financial resources, and the competitive performance is far inferior to the top two in the Western Super League. In addition to the fact that Juventus, a dominant team, is somewhat competitive, Milan's two once-famous teams have fallen so far as to sign some well-known players who have been abandoned by other giants because they are too old for nothing, and in some ways are not even more attractive than the current Napoli, who are much better financially than them. ”
After saying so much, his throat tightened a little, and after taking a big sip of coffee, he elaborated again: "Even the Big Three of the 'Holy Alliance' are like this, and the situation of the other teams can be imagined. Due to the lack of competitiveness in terms of financial resources and results, small teams like Udinese and Empoli who trained young players and then sold them at a high price were almost cornered, and they had to be competitive by other teams to find good seedlings everywhere, and it was difficult to cultivate a good player who could not sell at a high price, which was very miserable. ”
After shaking his head slightly, he motioned to the waiter again for two new cups of coffee before continuing: "Of course, the worst thing is a team like ours, there is no youth training tradition, there are no characteristics in all aspects, there is no competitiveness at all, and the players introduced are all leftovers given up by other teams, and there is no hope at all." No matter how many years it goes on like this, the team will still be like this, half-dead in the middle and lower reaches, luck comes to pick up a European qualification to play soy sauce, and if you are unlucky, you will go to the second division to take a walk around to see the poor relatives......" Speaking of this, this young man who looked like a frivolous boy not long ago, with a sad face, but his eyes were firm and said: "No, this is not what this great team should experience, we used to be the hegemon of world football, how can we be satisfied with like Na. What about the French under the rule of the Pure who ate and waited for death? ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Mudi couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Is it appropriate for you to sit in a café in someone's capital, drinking someone's coffee, and enjoying someone's service, but you still use this kind of tone to insult (insult)?" ”
By this time, Valentino Cairo had already incarnated as a leather. Life. The fighter suddenly stood up and said loudly: "This is completely unacceptable, the great Turin dynasty will never sink completely, and the pioneers who have dedicated countless efforts and even their lives to the club will never agree." ”
I'm X, this Nima won't be a fanatical ** element, will there be any danger in getting involved with this kind of person, it seems that you have to think of a way out in advance, there is a back door in this place. Just when the Castilian coach on the opposite side was frightened and wanted to avoid the limelight for a while, the waiter of the café came over and tactfully reminded the two of them by asking if there was anything else they needed help with: Talk to me a little bit, don't make trouble, don't you see that the other guests who are so far away from you are not satisfied?
Fortunately, that kid was just excited, and soon returned to normal, and after apologizing, he sat back in his position like a gentleman, and said in a deep voice to Li Mudi: "I'm sorry, I was a little too excited just now." ”
Li Mudi had a good sense of him in his heart, and felt that he was a man of temperament, so he hurriedly signaled that he didn't have to care, and at the same time put on a posture of continuing to listen to his opinions.
I saw Valentino Cairo drink two sips of coffee in a row - this coffee is considered high today, and it is estimated that he may not be able to sleep at night - and then continued the previous topic after his mood completely slowed down: "The team's personnel turnover in recent years has been very large, and at least half of the regular twenty-man rotation list must be replaced every year. I think that with the current situation of the club, it is impossible to get a large amount of money to upgrade in a short period of time, so we should design a short-term plan for two or three years or even four or five years, first of all, we must have a relatively stable facelift and a steady stream of fresh blood. ”
Then he stared at Li Mudi with warm eyes, and said excitedly: "Since coaching Castilla last summer, I have paid special attention to your performance, and found that you are really a magical manager, and the group of boys who have no potential in my opinion from the Real Madrid Academy have burst out with such amazing energy in your hands." In addition, after the club loaned out the main core one after another, you were able to lead the remaining remnants of the squad to still play very well, and I thought it was a blessing from God at the time, that you were the one who could lead Torino back to the top. ”
Well, although the other party's praise is very exaggerated, Li Mudi does enjoy having such a supporter in his heart, this is the first time since he was born that someone has given himself such a high affirmation in his career, it doesn't matter if he is not worthy of the name, enjoying it is the most important thing to do at this moment......
But who would have thought that the other party's next words almost made the Castile coach vomit a mouthful of blood.
"It's a pity that my father didn't think like this at all, and he was still superstitious about the old coach Ventura, thinking that he would stay in the position of coach of the team until retirement, and with his ability, he could lead the team to rise sooner or later. Hum! I don't want to think about how the old fox, who has been galloping in Italian football for decades, can continue to spend on this unenterprising team, as soon as there is another better option, he will definitely get rid of us immediately, turn around and leave. And in my opinion, the old fox is not wholeheartedly contributing to the club and my father, with his rich experience and a fairly good level, how can he let the club toss so much, shouldn't I persuade my father to pay attention to his own youth training and stabilize the squad? Also, his philosophy is too old to keep up with modern football thinking......"
This guy was reincarnated as Tang Seng again, and he nagged for a while, and he couldn't remember how many cups of coffee it was, and it was finally cold. But Li Mudi no longer had the desire to continue listening, but kept lamenting his misfortune in his heart: How did he meet such a second goods, Nima made trouble for a long time, it turned out that it was not the chairman of the club who instructed him to contact him? Is this "prince" comrade dissatisfied with his father's actions and private behavior, this is to force the palace? Or is it just to find yourself to vent?
Alas...... My head hurts!
