Tottenham started trading in the winter.

This news is not a particularly strange thing. Since Li Bin took over this season, the question of who will be the first of Tottenham's three England defenders to leave has been a topic of discussion in the media. This doesn't have anything to do with Li Bin's choice, it's simply because, generally speaking, there are really not many European coaches who can look at England defenders. Tottenham's three injury baskets, no matter how you look at it, are very dangerous, who will leave and who will stay, has always been a key topic of discussion in the media. It's good that they've been able to survive the winter break, and it's normal for them to leave now. It's just that it's Woodgate who is selling instead of Dawson It's a little funny: because Dawson is injured, no one is buying it now, and as a result, he was injured, which made Li Bin firm in his idea of selling, but it was Woodgate who was unlucky, and it was also a little embarrassing.

However, what has been discussed a lot is that Tottenham have chosen this particular timing. On December 19, the Premier League just stipulated that from next season, the maximum number of foreign players is 17, and the number of local players must not be less than 8, and a few days after the news was announced, Tottenham Hotspur was going to sell Woodgate, which was completely taking advantage of the opportunity to make money.

"We have always ignored that Li Bin seems to have a lot of potential in being a black-hearted businessman. Selling Gilardino, selling Robbie Keane, selling Berbatov, selling Melo, selling Bonella, in the old days, he sold players to buy bad deeds. And now he didn't even bother to cheat, he just robbed it openly. ”

The Premier League media blamed Li Bin's actions with some anger and some envy. As soon as this regulation came out, the price of local players must have skyrocketed, and Tottenham chose to sell Woodgate at this time, which is to grab it in the open.

Eight homegrown players in one team is not very difficult for the bottom teams in the Premier League, but it is a very difficult process for the strong teams in the Premier League. Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, these teams are complaining about this decision, they have less than eight local players in the team, England players have skyrocketed overnight, and Tottenham Hotspur is taking a fringe international at this time, clearly to tell other teams: take the opportunity to raise the price, the price is speculated, and in the summer, it is possible to pit those wronged leaders......

Such a shameless approach has made the Premier League teams scold the streets, but they are also honestly helping Tottenham to fire Woodgate's value: in the days to come, the price of the account will rise, and this hyped deal cannot be lost.

With the help of other league teams, Tottenham successfully sold Woodgate for £9 million and sold it to West Ham United in the same city - they had just sold Bellamy to Manchester City and had spare money. This is 1 million more expensive than when he bought Woodgate, and this price has also caused quite a stir in the Premier League: Bellamy's 14 million, Woodgate's 9 million, this world, is really the household registration book is starting to be worth a lot. A few years ago, what was the household register in the Premier League? The media always says that Arsenal in France, Liverpool in Spain, and Chelsea in the United Nations are all good now, and they all have to buy household registration books!

And Tottenham Hotspur specially pressed the household registration book for half a year before making a move, they shouldn't have done it on purpose, right?

Li Bin doesn't know what to say about this topic, if he knows what he does, he will definitely cry out for being wronged: where did he do it on purpose? If it was really deliberate, he would press it for another year and a half, and at that time, a household registration book of 15 million is the basic price, and the level of the player is calculated separately......

Such a question has caused a lot of discussion in the outside world, so much so that when Palmery announced his transfer to Tottenham for 12 million, not many people noticed this transfer. In fact, the media is not without attention, but this transfer seems to be a simple reinforcement, Li Bin bought a player of his own lineage, although it still attracts some attention, however, considering Li Bin's results, it is okay, and the purchase is a young man, and people's reaction is not very big.

"Palmeri is a player who made his debut at Parma last season. As a lucky one, he won the Champions League as a substitute on his debut, including a good performance against Liverpool. But this season, his performances have slipped a bit. Parma are now two games less and in the middle of the Serie A standings, and Palmery has received a lot of criticism at the back, especially in the recent Club World Cup, where he has been criticized very much, and media analysis has also contributed to his transfer. As his former coach, Li Bin knows him very well and should be able to teach him to play good football, but now Tottenham's back line is relatively stable, and the combination of Ledley King and Thiago Silva has not conceded many goals, and the media is also analyzing how Tottenham will change their backline so that he can have enough playing time......"

The media evaluation of Palmeri is also generally not very high. If he had transferred six months ago, he might still be worth a lot. However, now Parma's results are average, the Club World Cup has lost again, Palmeri's reputation has also plummeted, and the Italian defenders have always had poor results abroad, so there are few people who are optimistic about him.

The problem of the media is also the problem of the Tottenham players. At least, Neuer and Piszczek were talking about it when they saw Tottenham Hotspur on their training ground and Palmery already in their Tottenham shirts.

Tottenham's training program today is set-piece training, Tottenham has a lot of set-piece players, but Neuer's set-piece defense must be weak. When grouping, I saw Li Bin put Palmeri in the defensive group and stood in front of Neuer to line up the human wall, Neuer was also a little scared, his level was not enough, which would cause a loophole.

He originally thought that Li Bin bought Palmeri to train him as a substitute and an outside player, but looking at this meaning, Li Bin trusted him very much.

"He seems to be younger than Bell." Neuer cares a lot about this, he is a goalkeeper, and the quality of the back line directly affects his performance. And over the years, almost every Italian defender in the Bundesliga is synonymous with the word cheating daddy, seeing the young Palmeri, Neuer is also hesitant in his heart, "Can he really do it?" ”

"The old subordinate of the head, let's take a look and talk about it." Piszczek replied that as players from the Bundesliga, they sometimes say a few words to each other, "If you just look at it, there seems to be no problem." ”

If it were only a look, so to speak, Neuer would not be able to refute it. Palmeri is close to 190cm tall, looks quite burly, looks like a defender's material, although he is young, but he stands on the court, he looks no weaker than Ledley King and others, such a physical condition, it looks no worse than anyone else.

"It's big enough, but I still don't think it's reliable, the Italians left Italy, how many are reliable?" Neuer whispered.

"Hey, the training has started, we'll talk about it later!" While they were still talking, Palmeri had already walked over, pointed to the door, patted Neuer, and said in broken English, "Go and stand, kick well, don't be afraid, I'm here, no problem!" ”

When Palmeri finished speaking, he walked to the front by himself, and his movements made Neuer a little dumbfounded.

"He's directing me to stand? He's directing me? It's amazing, the young man learned to command me when he first arrived......"

"It's better to let him command than to let you command - if you are to command the defense, I wonder if you will make arrangements to play in the legendary 0-1-10 formation and let yourself play in the center circle......" Piszczek teased, "Go ahead, it's important to defend well." ”

"This kid is interesting, on the first day he came, he wanted to command me......" Neuer was still muttering, but apparently didn't pay much attention to it.

Obviously, Palmeri's command was more than just a word, and as soon as he arrived on the field, he began to dictate the positions of his teammates. Although Neuer was still complaining just now, after seeing his command, he gradually fell silent. As a top goalkeeper, he can see how good the defenders are. What is the level of Palmeri, Neuer does not know, but what the level of his command, Neuer can still do it at a glance. Lining up the wall, arranging the runs, arranging the attack, these are the most basic techniques, and in this regard, Palmeri has not done a solid job.

"The opposite position, don't butt the football, our goalkeeper can control it, don't patronize the danger, and the back of your head is concentrated, it's more dangerous than a hit in the crotch!"

Palmeri was coaching loudly, his English was poor, and he was talking and gesturing, turning the player with his back to the penalty kick around, and at the same time, arranging the direction of the wall to spread out for a while. The details of these arrangements made Neuer also a little admired: this kid is really bold, and he dared to say so many things on the first day he came.

However, he was quite right. When taking a free kick, some of the players standing on the wall stand with their backs to the goal, but they can't see the direction the ball is coming from, and it is very likely that they will be used to cause flaws around them, not to mention the subsequent formation scattering, these problems are very big. Neuer also knows this, but he didn't care about it before, because his back to the server is also good, and his back to the penalty taker can better help the goalkeeper control the ball, and it can also help the goalkeeper command the position. But if you think about it carefully, Neuer asked himself, he doesn't need others to help him control the ball, and the level of command does not seem to be very high. Standing with your back to the goal like this, it seems that there must be no benefit? Why didn't I find out before, and no one mentioned it?

Ledley King is not a managerial temper, Neuer, as a goalkeeper, his ability to command the wall of set-pieces is average, and he doesn't want to offend his teammates for this little thing - this is nothing, among the top goalkeepers, Casillas's level of commanding the wall is also very bad - dare to take out all these problems, Palmeri is still the first.

This kid is bold enough. This made Neuer a little interested, and I often heard people say that the backline needs a commander, an Italian player, and a high level of command at the back, which he didn't pay attention to in Germany before, and now he really believes it. It's really surprising that such a kid can also command here, and the level of command is not low.

However, this kid is so bold, as soon as he arrives on the court, he dares to direct his teammates' running, and someone supports him, right? looked at the sidelines, Neuer also smiled a little wryly: The descendant line is the descendant line, and this kind of treatment of a godson is really incomparable.

However, after all, there is such a thing as team status, which cannot be given by the coach's help. Neuer also looked at the young conductor with interest: what is his ability to make the coach regard him as a godson? Will he be able to earn his position on his own?
