Chapter 231
This winter, in the La Liga transfer market, the team that has made the biggest noise is undoubtedly the yellow submarine - Villarreal. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Perhaps in terms of the value of the introduced players, they are not the biggest, a shot from a giant team, it is impossible to say that it can be worth several of their new signings, but as the saying goes, the quality is not enough to make up the quantity, in terms of the number of players introduced, the submarine can be described as the champion of La Liga.
Generally speaking, during the winter transfer period, clubs tend not to make much move, because in the middle of the league, the team needs more stability, and even if it needs to strengthen the squad, it will only be a minor repair. Such as Villarreal's "makeover" move is really extremely rare.
And this kind of action, naturally, has also attracted the attention of many fans and the media, many people are skeptical about the submarine's approach, and the old fans who really understand the ball naturally know that this kind of action is strictly speaking, not a good thing for the team, and it is easy to make the team fall into turmoil and chaos, so the voice of doubt in the market sounded from time to time.
Some media even said that what Villarreal did in this winter was a move to self-destruct the city wall, and Pellegrini's stupid move is likely to lead the team back to the pre-liberation period, a fragmented team that is not fully integrated will lose the qualification to compete for the top four in the league, and Villarreal is finally back on the right track after the big ups and downs, but all this, it is likely to end here, and the submarine will slide into the endless abyss again.
There has been a lot of talk and skepticism, and even the fans in the small town have not been spared, and they are also taking a wait-and-see attitude towards the team's big moves, not only because of the rumours from the outside world, but also partly because they have long been used to the players leaving in the winter.
The so-called people are not as good as new, clothes are not as good as the old, no matter how good other people's children are, they are not their own, and their own children naturally think that they are the best. What happens to the new players, it will be seen later, and the children who are very good in their hearts leave, they are naturally half lost and half worried.
Fans will be worried that our excellent children are gone, will it have a great impact on the team, whether the new arrivals can replace them, uh, it should be difficult, because these children are what they have watched step by step to today, and if they want to replace, how can it be so simple. Also, will they have a bad time outside, and will we really slump as the outside world said, as the outside world said, because of the loss of a few generals, and return to the pre-liberation period......
This is a very contradictory mentality, on the one hand, the fans of the small town want the new signings to play well and can bring a lot of help to the team, and they can't be worse than before; On the other hand, if the team continues to walk on the track of victory step by step, then it doesn't mean that the "old people" are right to leave, because they can't keep up with the pace of the team, and can only be eliminated - this is the scene that everyone is most happy to see, but from the psychological point of view, it is a little unacceptable, their own children, even compared to foreign children, how to look at this, they are parents, are failures!
In the contradictory and tangled mentality of the fans, time passed quickly, and soon, a new round of the league began. On weekend nights, the Love Song Stadium was once again packed, and 30,000 fans created a warm atmosphere in the huge stadium, which was a time to test the results of the team's winter transfer period, and the fans who doubted and watched were naturally not to be missed.
Arces sat in the commentator's seat, and before the game had even started, he gave a brief commentary on the team's continued efforts to bring in players over the course of the week.
'A lot has happened in the course of the week, yes, there are some players who have been with us for many years left, Pena,...... Parting is always sad and reluctant, and I don't want to comment on that, because the world of football is like that, there are people who come and people go, and no one can change that. What I want to say is thank you for the joy you have brought us in this stadium, maybe we didn't have a championship, maybe we didn't become a big team that the whole world watched, but this companionship is enough to leave an indelible mark on our lives. Have a nice trip and hope you all have a better start in your new place. ”
First of all, goodbye, although the people who left could not hear it, but the fans at the scene resonated, some fans had already prepared banners and slogans, all of which were some farewell words, maybe they couldn't see it, but what if they were also sitting in front of the TV at this moment and saw this scene?
Those who have left have left, and those who are still staying, all they can do is send a blessing.
A blessing that belongs to them, between the players and the fans, the memories of the past.
Then there are reviews and speculation.
"It's rare for a team to make such a high-profile move in the winter, and everyone knows how unpredictable the impact of a spree on a team's consistency can be on a spree of selling and signings. I'm sure Mr. Manuel is well aware of that, so I think he has his own considerations. He's a wise manager, and if he dares to do that, there's a reason for him, and there's a lot of skepticism and criticism, but I want to say that no matter what the future holds, I, and all the small town fans, will always stand behind our team. Our children don't hurt ourselves, who will? ”
"Of course, this game can be said to be a test, a test to check the effectiveness of the team's recruitment and purge action! However, I think that Mr. Manuel should still focus on stability, although there are many old faces leaving, but the main framework of the team has not lost much, so I think that if the team sticks to the previous personnel and tactical play, in the short term, there should not be too many ups and downs......
Arcese was a man of his word, and his predictions about the team's starting lineup were hardly wrong. Just a few minutes later, he was in the home side's line-up for the game – almost unchanged from the previous league line-up, with only three differences, the left wing-back position, which Capdevilla replaced with Abaraina's departure. This is not surprising, in fact, even when Abarena is around, Capdevilla has often replaced him as the starter, and both men are excellent in this position, and the two have always been in contention. With the departure of Abarina, Capdevilla has successfully become the first choice at left wing-back. And another substitute full-back Jose. Enrique is also an extremely good young man, so the competition for this position is still fierce.
The second change is that Fan Bizhuang, who has completed the ban in the team, has returned to the position of the starting left wing-back, which needless to say, in the absence of accidents, the first choice for this position must be the Chinese teenager, the team's most relied on "thigh" in the new season, and the main position is almost untouchable.
And the third change is the newly transferred Diego. Lopes became the team's starting goalkeeper. This is a bit worrying.
As we all know, a good goalkeeper is enough to support half of the team, and when there is a problem in the team's backline, a good goalkeeper becomes the last insurmountable barrier.
Balbosa's reputation may not be on par with that of the top goalkeepers, but over the years, he has been a conscientious performer in submarines, rarely making mistakes, and his goal-line skills are also extremely good, often turning the tide in times of crisis. What's more, Barbosa works very well with the defenders in front of him, and everyone feels at ease with him in front of goal, which allows them to concentrate more on the game.
But Diego. López is different, although in these few days of training, everyone is convinced of his ability, but the actual combat and training are not the same, in the game, can he cooperate well with his teammates? Can he play his strength well in an unfamiliar environment? Also, will the new environment have a bad impact on him, and will there be unnecessary fluctuations in his mentality, so that he will not make any mistakes at all......
These are all questions.
It's not just the players and fans who are worried, it's manager Manuel Pellegrini. But this is also a helpless move, in Villarreal, there were originally two excellent goalkeepers, one was Vieira, and the other was Balbosa, who had just transferred away.
In comparison, Vieira is the team's first goalkeeper, but Vieira has a characteristic, to be precise, a big shortcoming, that is, the Uruguayan goalkeeper seems to have the attribute of "glass man", extremely prone to injury, playing for the submarine for nearly three years, he has not played a full season, always injured and stopped.
In this way, Balbosa's chances of playing become a lot. The two have been taking turns sitting in the position of the team's main goalkeeper.
With Barbosa leaving, it stands to reason that Vieira should have the exclusive position of the main goalkeeper, but unfortunately, the "glass man" has fallen into injury again, so the choice of goalkeeper position is a headache for Pellegrini.
He promoted a young goalkeeper named Enrique from the second team, but in the end he gave up the 19-year-old Spanish teenager and finally chose Diego, who recently moved from Real Madrid. Lopez.
In any case, the experienced veteran goalkeeper is more trustworthy, even if Lopes has never worked with new teammates, but the goalkeeper position is very special, if you pay attention to it, it shouldn't be too much of a problem - even if there is a problem, then you can only pinch your nose and admit it, who let the team in this position, there is really no one to find it?
While the fans were worried about an unfamiliar face in the goalkeeper position, Fan Bizhuang and his teammates had already warmed up on the field, and a group of people gathered together to talk quietly.
