Chapter 377: The lineup is almost there
Aside from this transfer, this year's Inter Milan squad has basically come out, and there are still some minor repairs left.
Goalkeepers: Frei, Valardi, Kodaz
Defenders: Blanco, Córdoba, Gamarra, Zanetti, Materazzi, Simic, Grosso, Thuram, Ferrari, Oddo, Barzagli, Zaccardo
Midfielders: Di Biagio, Jugovic, Seedorf, Peralta, Pirlo, Brocki, Emerson, Stankovic, Redondo (chips)
Forwards: Ronaldo, Vieri, Hakan. Suke, Recoba and Chiesa
There are too many troops in the back line of this lineup, and Fan Shang wants to take half a year to see first, if there is an injury, then someone will be on top, and if there is no injury, then Zacardo or Barzagli and others will be loaned out during the winter break.
Another problem is that the goalkeepers are too young, all born after 80 years, and they are all around 20 years old. This is actually a big taboo for a club, at least one of the three goalkeepers is an experienced veteran player, so Vincent is ready to get another such substitute goalkeeper, this kind of player may not be many elsewhere, but in Italy, which is rich in goalkeepers, it is really a big catch.
Fan Shang didn't want to use his own brains, and told Facchetti that fortunately there were still millions of remaining transfer fees. Inter Milan soon made the move, buying a backup goalkeeper from Lazio, the 36-year-old veteran Balotta, and loaning Kodaz to a Serie C club.
Balotta is definitely a hardcore figure in the history of Serie A, if there are no major problems in history, the veteran will fight in professional football until the age of 43, and at the age of 43, he can also start in the Champions League for a certain Serie A team, and it has also become a record in the Champions League later, the oldest starter.
Now with this old brother, Inter Milan have also improved the depth of the bench in front of goal, and now they are ready to start training.
Redondo hasn't moved over there, Fan Shang is ready for him not to come, it's a big deal to take the money and buy a midfielder.
The day of Inter Milan's assembly is coming soon, because there is an old captain Bergomi in Vincent's coaching staff, so Vincent is no longer worried about the alienation between the players, of course, there are still many of his old subordinates in the team, such as Frei, Gamarra, Materazzi, etc., and the two French internationals Blanco and Thuram are also considered to be Fan Shang's descendants, so the back line Fan Shang must be able to control.
The biggest headache for Fan Shang is the striker, whether this luxurious forward can listen to him command Fan Shang really doesn't count, Vieri and Ronaldo belong to the kind of unruly master, Ronaldo left Inter Milan because Cooper asked him to defend, this guy is unwilling to produce contradictions.
Fan Shang didn't know the bottom of his heart, so he still found Bergomi to consult before the players gathered, "Giuseppe, what kind of people do you think Ronaldo and Vieri are?" ”
"Haha, Fan Shang, I know what you're worried about" After listening to Fan Shang's question, Bergomi knew that Fan Shang was afraid that he would not be able to suppress these two big names, "It's okay, they are all very professional players, although there may be some various news off the field, but when it comes to training and games, they will not be ambiguous." ”
Fan Shang nodded, "By the way, who is more suitable as the captain now?" Fan Shang asked the old captain again.
"Zanetti last year was very good, there is no need to change, he has been at Inter Milan for five years, and this season is the sixth season." Bergomi agrees with Zanetti.
"Do you think he can inherit your mantle?" Vincent asked Bergomi with a smile, looking at Bergomi's expression, Vincent thought that Bergomi wanted Zanetti to stay at Inter Milan.
"Of course, he will definitely become an icon of Inter Milan in the future." Bergomi is definitely there.
Fan Shangxiao's voice was louder, not a mockery, but an affirmation of this spirit of loyalty, the eternal captain in front of him has been playing for Inter Milan since he was 16 years old, of course, this is still not based on the youth training, and he has not left this club since he retired, what kind of spirit is this.
"Giuseppe, you'll have to help me when the players come back for training next week," Vincent said after laughing, "By the way, call Zanetti out and talk alone before continuing, at least let me know about the captain and let him know about me, what do you think?" ”
"No problem, I'll arrange it, by the way, there is also a candidate for the vice captain, do you think?" Bergomi gave Fan Shang another problem this time.
"I think it's just Di Biagio, his personality is a little impulsive, this kind of person is suitable for being the vice-captain, and he can give his teammates a head" Fan Shang also thought about this question again and again, and felt that this candidate was still very good.
"Well, that's what I thought too," Bergomi nodded, and then went to arrange a meeting between Vincent and Zanetti.
The meeting with Zanetti was a success, and he said that he would assist Vincent in managing the team's dressing room, and needless to say, this is what Vincent needs.
This time because of the European Cup, Inter Milan's assembly time is relatively late, and the distance from the Champions League qualifiers is about a week, but Fan Shang is still confident that if he is really planted in the qualifiers, then there is really no need to play.
However, the good thing is that the Italian Serie A starts relatively late, as long as these two qualifiers are passed, there will be a long period of preparation, during which Fan Shang can give the players a week off.
However, before these two games, Fan Shang must be on the top of them, Fan Shang took another look at the schedule, these two games were played on August 9 and 22, and the next game is to wait until September 8 and Lazio's Super Cup, and the league will not start until September 30, but if you advance to the first round of the Champions League group stage, there will be three games in September, so the intensity is really not low, it seems that these players can't be on vacation, who calls this year's European Cup.
August 2 is the day when Inter Milan assembles, and on this day their opponent in the third round of the Champions League qualifiers is also officially announced, is the Swedish powerhouse Helsingborg, this team is the runner-up of the Swedish Super League last year, in the last round they eliminated the Belarusian hegemon Borisov and successfully advanced, this time Inter Milan is the first away and then the home, Fan Shang believes that the schedule is still good.
