For 14 days, from June 25 to July 9, Chu Zhongtian had been training in terms of physical fitness and strength specially arranged for him, in order to restore his weight and fat content to the previous level. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info After that, I will work with the team for physical training.

It will take a week for the World Cup internationals to join up with the team, at which point Fernandes will begin systematic tactical training.

Just when Chu Zhongtian was sweating like rain in the gym, frowning and eating in the face of the tasteless nutritious meal, the four-year World Cup had ended.

Before the final, no one expected that the final of this World Cup would be so dramatic, and no one expected that a legendary end would be through that controversial way.

The captain of the French team, Zinedine Zidane, was sent off by the referee for a red card for overheading Materazzi in the extra time of the final. The scene of him bowing his head and passing by the World Cup has become a classic scene of this World Cup.

In the end, the French team lost to Italy in the penalty shootout, but Italy, who were not favored before the game, defeated all opponents with a strong team and reached the top of the world every four years.

Ribery didn't win a trophy in his first World Cup, despite the fact that he was so close to that trophy at one point. If he does become a world champion, Mace will not be able to keep him anyway.

After the World Cup, Ribery's transfer rumors were lifted again. By the end of the World Cup in one month, he has become a well-known star all over the world, and he is no longer an ordinary player who is only famous in France.

The World Cup has opened the door for Ribery to another world, and he is eager to play at a higher level and get a bigger salary.

Mace, for his part, will not hesitate to keep the team's number one star.

As soon as the World Cup ended, Fernandes called Ribery to hope he could stay in the team. Ribery was ambiguous because of his agent, James. Merry has already received offers from a number of foreign clubs, including big clubs such as Manchester United and Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid are also said to have taken a fancy to the French star's rise to the Bernabeu.

In fact, now Ribery is also hesitating, he wants to play in those big teams and play in the Champions League. But he was reluctant to let go of his friends in Metz, especially Chu Zhongtian. originally said that if he could, he would transfer with Chu Zhongtian, but Chu Zhongtian had already decided to renew his contract with Mace in advance, and he could only go alone if he wanted to leave, and he was a little depressed.

Of course, Chu Zhongtian wanted Ribery to stay with him, he liked the feeling of being with Ribery, and it was also interesting to have this lively person as a neighbor. Moreover, they have to participate in the League Cup this season, and if they don't have Ribery, the strength of the team will be greatly reduced. At that time, Mace will really become a tricky character who will come back after a trip to the League Cup.

Whether it is considered from personal feelings or team results, Chu Zhongtian hopes that Ribery will stay. For this reason, he also called Ribery, hoping that Ribery would stay.

"If you really want to leave, it's not too late to leave when the season is over, Frank." Chu Zhongtian said to Ribery, "This League Cup qualification is something we have worked hard to fight for, how can we leave without enjoying the fruits of victory?" I'd like to play the UEFA Cup with you......"

"I'm pretty confused right now, Chu ...... I've heard James say that there are already a few clubs that have offered me a treatment that Metz would never give me. But...... I'm on vacation right now, but I can't play at all because of this problem every day......"

"Then make a decision sooner rather than later, Frank. Anyway, my teammates and fans and I want you to stay. I think so, Frank...... Money is not enough in any case, and there will be opportunities to earn it in the future, as long as you perform well. There are opportunities to join big clubs every year, as long as you perform well. Didn't Marseille and Lyon interest you before last season? But the opportunity to be with friends and work hard for the same goal doesn't come every year. ”

Chu Zhongtian's last sentence touched Ribery, and after thinking about it for two days, Ribery called his agent, James. Merry told him that he wanted to stay in Metz this season, but he would not sign a new contract, and if there was a club that wanted him next season, Metz could not raise the price indiscriminately, and must let him go at a reasonable price.

Molinari was so happy to hear the news that he announced the news to all the Metz fans the next day: "We talked to Frank and he decided to stay in Metz for another year! ”

All the Metz fans breathed a sigh of relief and then began to celebrate Ribery's stay in Metz.

No one thinks about what to do in a year's time, everyone knows that with Ribery's current development trend, Metz will not be able to keep him next season no matter what, and those giants are the ultimate destination for Ribery. It's not easy to get Ribery to play for the team this season.

"Now Metz can make a difference in the League Cup!" The local media outlet in Metz, La Belleale della République de la Ré

Franck Franck Ribery has not asked for a raise or re-signed contract, and will be paid €22,000 a week until the end of the season, before moving to a big club if the right opportunity arises. At that time, his salary will rise to a very objective point, so he doesn't care about making less money this year.

Now Chu Zhongtian has become the highest salary in the team.

While keeping Chu Zhongtian and Ribery, Fernandes also made some plans for the team's lineup, determining who could leave and which positions needed to be replenished.

Buying people is more important than selling people, and if the new season of Metz wants to participate in the League Cup, it will not work to rely on last season's squad, and it must be bought. For example, there are many positions in the team's back line, and there are only Chu Zhongtian and Promans in the defensive midfield, and Leka has decided to leave the team, and there is also a need for substitutes in this position. Ribery said that he was going to leave next season, so from now on it is necessary to find a good successor for him, a season to adapt, and when he is gone, it will be just on top.

Only Bobiconi and Meniri can be trusted at centre-back, but it is not possible to rely on just two people to play in the UEFA Cup. Fernandez signed their Malian centre-back Sami for one million euros from Nice. Traore (sammy_traore), the 1.94-meter-tall central defender is one of the representative central defenders in Ligue 1, with excellent physical fitness, 1.94 meters tall, excellent bounce, great headers and marking. At the age of 30, he has a lot of experience and is just the right fit for a team as young as Metz.

However, it is clear that only three centre-backs of the calibre are not enough, and there are at least four of them in this position, taking into account the factors of fitness, injuries and red and yellow cards. Through the observation of the World Cup, Fernandez fell in love with the central defender of Guadalajara, Mexico. Javier. Rodriguez (francisco_javier_rodriguez), the 24-year-old centre-back has made 33 appearances for the Mexican national team, scoring one goal, is 1.91 meters tall and has an excellent defence, making him a popular centre-back in Mexico. To bring him to Metz, Fernandez spent one and a half million euros.

In addition, the versatile backfield player Ibrahim, who plays for Belgian league side Brussels. Cabo (ibrahim_kargbo) also came into Fernandez's sights. The Sierra Leonean player can play as a centre-back, left and right wing-back, scavenger, defensive midfielder and central midfielder. And it's cheap and very good value for money. Metz eventually defeated Wilhelm II for 700,000 euros, taking him to France.

In addition, Fernandes is on loan from Marseille to bring in young Senegalese defender Khalifa. Ba (khalifa_ba), he can play at right-back and centre-back.

Nineteen-year-old Alsani in Toulouse. Camara (alseny_camara) has also signed a personal contract with Metz, after Toulouse had agreed to sell him to Metz for 400,000 euros.

Despite all the recruitments, Fernandes has continued to strengthen the team's backline, and he has loaned 23-year-old defender Jonathan from Belgian side Standard Liege (royal_standard_de_liege). Valasiak (jonathan_walasiak). The player is also versatile, playing as both full-back and right-hand attack, with speed, strong long-range shots and the ability to take free-kicks, making him an attacking full-back.

The line-up at the back has been strengthened and the midfield needs to continue to be added.

Let. Fernandes has been watching a player and now he thinks it's time to make a move. Ahmed, who plays as a defensive midfielder. Born in Marseille, Jaiovi (ahmed_yahiaoui) was originally a member of the French under-17 national youth team, and was favored by many people, in the midfield position, he has an elegant style of play and delicate technique. The summer of 2004 attracted the attention and offers of a number of clubs, including Chelsea, but they were all rejected by Marseille FC. However, in the 04-05 season, he didn't get much of a chance to play like his good friends Nasri and Taiwo. Eventually, in the summer of 2005, he moved on a free transfer to Ligue 2 club Eastres, where he played 16 games. However, he still hasn't had any decent chances at Easter, with most of those 16 games coming off the bench.

Fernandez values his potential, and at just 19 years old, he has a promising future as long as he cultivates it. And Jayovi also wants to play under a coach who values him. Fernandez has a good reputation for cultivating young people, and you can see his level by looking at the Ribery, Chu Zhongtian and Menez that he has cultivated in the past two seasons. Jayovi was happy to come to Metz and the two sides hit it off, with the French youth midfielder joining Metz for free for a zero transfer fee. In the new season, he will learn from Promans and Chu Zhongtian and be a substitute for the two of them.

In the wing-back position, Fernandes poached Matthew from former Bordeaux youth team Libourne. Valbuena (mathieu_valbuena). The attacking midfielder, who can play both central and wide plays, began his football training with the Bordeaux youth team, but was eventually dropped by the Bordeaux youth team because of his height. He then moved to an amateur team where he didn't stay for long, and one season later he was valued by Libona, a third-division side who made 55 appearances for Libona in the two seasons from 2004-2005 to 2005-2006, scoring 10 goals, nine of which were scored last season.

His performances caught the attention of some clubs, and Metz was one of them.

Valbuena clearly did not want to be in the third division for the rest of his life, and it was at this time that Jean, who was known for producing young people. Fernandez appeared to him like an angel and invited him to join Metz. What is there to hesitate about? Valbuena nodded repeatedly. Ligona also know they can't keep the player who performed well last season. In the end, the two clubs reached an agreement to sign a four-year contract with Valbuena to join Metz for 400,000 euros.

Matthew. Valbuena is an acquisition with an eye on the future, and the one to solve the immediate problem is Fabio, who plays for Portuguese Premiership side Leiria. Felicio (fabio_felicio). Metz eventually brought the Portuguese full-back to France from Reria for 140,000 euros.

Both Valbuena and Felicio were left wing-backs, while Ribery was on the right, and Fernandes needed a young and promising ball to replace Ribery after a season, and he targeted Bordeaux's Gabriel. Obertan (gabriel_obertan), but Bordeaux are clearly reluctant to let go of Obertan, whom they are already signing.

Obertan is a graduate of the French football school Clairefontaine and has a bright future. In Metz's favour, although Bordeaux brought Obertan to the team a season ago and made him play in the development team, there was no way to give him a professional contract because of his age.

As long as Fernandez can convince Obertan to accept Metz's contract.

Clearly, any young Frenchman has heard of Fernandes, who produced Zinedine Zidane at Cannes, Pedretti at Sochaux, Franck Ribery and Chu Zhongtian at Metz, and a rising Menez. There is no young player who doesn't want to play under a coach like that.

Fernandez's charisma once again triumphed over his opponents, snatching Obertan from Bordeaux, whom they had been preparing for a year. Fernandez has tried and tested his hand to show his charisma to his signing. In the summer, Fernandez used this trick to snatch Jaiovi from Switzerland's Sion and Matthew from Marseille's mouth. Valbuena, and now Gabriel has been robbed from his lair in Bordeaux. Obertan.

Forward-wise, Fernandez bought only one man, getting French striker Seholle for free from third-division side Angers. Tello (cyril_thereau).

At the same time as buying people, the team is also cleaning up players whose strength cannot keep up with the team. Twenty-year-old Cameroonian shooter Elf. Tum moved to second division side Strasbourg for €750,000, and since Ibisevic joined the club in the second half of last season, he has been largely out of play, leaving is a good option for both him and Metz.

Another striker, Baba Carr. Gueye moved to Nantes for 1.1 million euros.

In midfield, Leka has not been able to play since he was injured in the 2004-05 season against Paris Saint-Germain, and he certainly does not want to be a substitute all the time, so it has been like Fernandes who has made a transfer request. Caen of the second division team took an interest in him and ended up getting him for half a million euros. Although the second division team is not as good as the first division team and cannot participate in the League Cup, he can get a regular starting place there. Compared to the League Cup, Leka prefers to be a main player.

Original centre-back Bruno. Pompier was also officially waived by the club this summer, and Metz terminated his contract, making him a free agent who could go wherever he wanted.

Right-back Frank, who played as a regular last season. Beria was also sold to Saint-Etienne by the team for one and a half million euros. He will be replaced by Ibrahim. Kabo or Khalifa. Bar.

The Metz team didn't sell much, after all, the overall framework of the team is still immovable, at most it is just tinkering with a single position.

Metz's attacking lineup is very strong, and the areas that need to be tinkered with are mainly focused on the back line. If you want to play well in the UEFA Cup, you need to have a good defense.

Ibisevic, who scored just one goal in the six months he joined last season, was not sold out by the team, and his equaliser in the French Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain eased the pressure a lot. Judging from the team's reinforcements in the forward line, he may still be the main force in the new season.

I wonder if this will put new pressure on him...... In addition to these guys, Fernandes has also appropriately redeployed several players from the youth and development teams to the first team to supplement the team's bench strength.

As can be seen from these player changes, Fernandes wants to concede fewer goals this season while continuing to hold high the banner of attacking football. So the backline has become a key focus for him, and he has brought in six new players in one go this summer. Last season, Metz scored 51 goals, the third-highest number of goals scored in the league in the whole league, behind champions Lyon with 73 goals and third-place Lille with 56 goals. The strength of the round attack is deservedly ranked among the top three in the league, but their loss number is also forty-eight, ranking fifth in the league. Conceding too many goals has severely constrained the team's further improvement. If you want to make a breakthrough in the new season, you must do a good job defensively.

The midfield has introduced four newcomers, all because the team's core players are concentrated in the midfield, and these core players may face the problem of leaving after a season.

In the process of preparing for the team, the renewal of the squad is gradually completed. Franck Franck Ribery has also returned to the squad from his holiday destination, and his ability to stay in Metz for the new season has given everyone more confidence in the team's results for the new season.
