Chapter 14: The Only Player in the Front
The domestic media was really excited, as evidenced by the football news reports on various websites that night.
Various reports are talking about the news of Manchester City's listing of Mills and Satcher, and various football experts and professors are also analyzing the reasons for Manchester City's actions and the 'far-reaching' impact.
But no matter what you say, there is always a player's name, and that is Sun Jihai.
All fans who pay attention to Sun Jihai's appearance know that he actually does not have a fixed main position in Manchester City, he is the panacea of the backfield, he can be competent in any position, and even sometimes the position is premised, the back, the midfield, he can make a temporary cameo, such a jack-of-all-trades player is what any coach likes, because he can supplement every position, but everything is good, and it also means that the ocean is sparse, so it is very difficult for Sun Jihai to have a fixed main position.
Many people can say the truth, but Chinese fans still hope that he can have a main position, which also means that his 'staying abroad' is more successful, and now seeing Manchester City listing Mills and Satcher, they immediately thought of Sun Jihai.
After Mills and Satchel left, Manchester City directly vacated two full-back positions, and Sun Jihai was afraid that there would be no chance at that time?
A review and analysis of "Xinlang Sports" believes that this is a sign of Wansheng's reuse of Sun Jihai.
He has begun to consciously give Sun Jihai a chance, and Sun Jihai will definitely have more playing time in the new season.
This kind of analysis is a bit of a feeling of taking Sun Jihai as the protagonist and Wan Sheng as a supporting role, but in fact, because Wan Sheng is a football coach and has had good results in Europe, the domestic media don't regard him as the 'protagonist', they hope that Wan Sheng's success can drive several domestic players to succeed together, after all, he is the head coach. It can still help domestic players to some extent.
When he saw these news, Wan Sheng could only smile bitterly.
He is not paving the way for Sun Jihai.
Perhaps, if Sun Jihai's strength is really quite good, he doesn't mind doing it, after all, Mills and Satcher don't fit his tactical philosophy, provided that Sun Jihai has the strength and also seizes the opportunity to find his form.
In his heart, Sun Jihai is still the best addition to the lineup.
In fact, Wan Sheng still pays more attention to personal feelings, even if he is very rational and does not bring personal feelings to work, but if it is in the choice of two players with the same ability. He will definitely choose to have a relationship with himself, Sun Jihai and himself are compatriots, Chinese should help each other overseas, if Sun Jihai meets his own requirements, he will definitely be willing to give Sun Jihai more opportunities to play.
But in fact, Wansheng knew that it was unlikely.
His tactical philosophy, his tactical requirements, etc., these things take time for professional players to adapt, and Sun Jihai is the same. Even if there is a football training master system to help him adapt to tactics faster, and even improve some personal abilities by the way, after all, it will take a while, and Sun Jihai's spiritual attributes can only be regarded as average. Without a miracle, he will certainly not be able to compare with those young and powerful geniuses.
Like what...... Leto Ziegler......
Therefore, it is not easy for Sun Jihai to have the main position, but it is not completely impossible, for example, Wan Sheng wanted to reuse Sun Jihai at the beginning of the season. This is actually a helpless choice, because the team's main central defenders Dunn and Distin are injured, and they will certainly not be able to participate in all the pre-match training camps. Therefore, Sun Jihai will definitely not lack playing time at the beginning of the season.
In addition to Leto Ziegler, the other wing also needs a steady dìng's main force, which requires the team to transfer in, Wan Sheng has a few players he likes, but all of them still need transfer negotiations, Wan Sheng also plans to sell Mills and Satcher to get the transfer fee, and then use it to supplement the defensive players.
Wansheng has two players on his eye, one is Lescott, who currently plays for Wolfhampton Wanderers, and the other is Chelsea's young full-back Glenn Johnson.
Both of these players will be future pitchers on the wings of England, but at the moment they are just ordinary players.
Glen Johnson is slightly better, he is also playing as a substitute at big-name Chelsea, while Lescott is still playing in the second division, relatively speaking, a player who can be won for, and it will be difficult for Woolfhampton Wanderers to retain talented players.
In fact, Wan Sheng wants to get Derby's Leyton Baines or Lichtsteiner, but obviously Pierce can't sell players to Manchester City, which is the same as not selling players to competitors, such as Chelsea, Manchester United and other teams, almost no exchange players, Wan Sheng and Pierce have a very bad relationship, plus Manchester City has poached Morris and Leto Ziegler from Derby County, they will definitely not sell players to Manchester City again, Manchester City even if they submit a transfer request, they will definitely refuse directly, Or maybe the lion opened his mouth and said a price that was impossible for any team to accept, so Wan Sheng didn't have any hope of buying his own descendants, and he could only consider supplementing the squad from other aspects.
Lesquat is a good choice, but it is not easy to get such a talented player, one is that the transfer funds are limited, Wolfhampton Wanderers are not fools, they cannot sell their players at a low price, and the other is that Wansheng is very famous in England, many people know that he is good at developing young players, if the media breaks the news that Manchester City has taken a fancy to Lescott, Wolfhampton Wanderers Club and not talk about it, maybe they will have a few more competitors!?
Wan Sheng thought about it carefully and finally called the club's manager, Bill Nix.
Professional things are best done by professional people, Bee Nix was originally the manager of the club, and poaching this kind of thing can only be done by him.
When Wan Sheng came to Manchester City, Bee Nix expressed his absolute support for him and promised to come to him if he needed help.
Wan Sheng dialed Billy Nix.
"Knicks, I have a crush on a player, can you find someone to run?"
"Who is it?" Bee Nix was interested, he knew about Wansheng's fame and was curious to know what player he had his eye on.
Wan Sheng said it.
"Lescott!? A player for Wolfhampton Wanderers? "Billy Nix was at a loss.
Lethcote is still a bit famous around Wolfhampton or in the second tier, but that doesn't affect Manchester, it doesn't affect the Premier League. From the perspective of the Premier League, an excellent player in the second league is just like that, and ordinary teams in the Premier League may not be able to play as substitutes, this is the gap at the league level.
But Bi Nix doesn't have to think too much, because this is what Wansheng is optimistic about, he only needs to poach according to Wansheng's intentions, as for whether this player is very talented, that is Wansheng needs to consider, and it has nothing to do with his poaching work.
So he directly agreed. "No problem, I'll get someone to go...... No, I'll go personally! ”
"Thanks, Nyx!"
Bill-Nix laughed and said, "We're starting to work together, so get closer and just call me Bill!" ”
"Alright, Bill!"
The two exchanged a few words. I hung up the phone.
Wan Sheng is not too worried about whether Bill Nix can poach Lescott, although Manchester City cannot compare with the arch-rival Manchester United, but they are still a Premier League powerhouse, and they are not much better than Wolfhampton Wanderers. And the appeal of the top league to professional players is also conceivable, as long as it is not a young player with too strong a sense of belonging, it is difficult to resist the temptation to land in the top league.
The most important thing is not to leak the news and let Lescott himself know that Manchester City are interested in him. If you are interested in him, then he can choose to join Manchester City.
In a transfer, the player's own opinion is quite important. Generally speaking, it is very difficult for clubs to stop players from deciding where to go, especially small teams like Wolfhampton Wanderers, who cannot afford to lose too much, and it is better to complete the transfer with a head than to fall out with the player and suffer losses, so that they can still have a transfer income.
This is the naked reality of the world of football.
Of course, UEFA has long had clear regulations on private contact with players, and once confirmed, the relevant clubs will definitely receive penalties, but this provision is difficult to have any effect, for example, Chelsea has repeatedly violated it, and the media can always break the news that Chelsea has contacted a famous star, and they are not disguised at all, as for UEFA's investigation and punishment?
Just let them come, Chelsea don't care!
On the surface, in order to protect the interests of the smaller clubs, UEFA prohibits the two clubs from having private access to players until they have reached a deal, but in practice, almost all clubs ignore this rule.
Bee Nix is very professional in doing this, as the manager of the club, it is not the first time that he has poached a role, and David Silva has also come forward to settle it himself, and he is still somewhat famous in European football.
In short, after Wan Sheng handed over the poaching job to Bill Nix, he could pay attention to other places.
For example, the team's forward line.
In Wansheng's plan, the tactics in Manchester City must be stronger than those of Derby County, and the 'strong' here refers to the technical content of the tactics.
Wansheng is at the helm of Manchester City, in fact, it is equivalent to rebuilding the team, which takes time, and the formation of the team must be done step by step, but the goal must be clear at the beginning, so as not to deviate in the construction of the team.
Making the tactics more technical requires a high level of individual ability from each player and the ability of the whole team to work together.
It takes time.
However, the league cannot wait for Manchester City to restructure their team, so a strong forward line is a must to ensure that the team's results will not be pulled down until the team is revised.
A strong forward line is the only way to guarantee goals and to guarantee victory.
Many people say that defense can win, so the first requirement of many teams in Europe is defense, in fact, Wansheng's tactical thinking is also very conservative, but he is different from other coaches, he has coaching skills, under the guarantee of skill effect and tactics, defense alone must not meet the needs, he can be more demanding of the team.
Manchester City's forward line is not very good, whether it is Ireland or Miller, the strength is only as good as Cheng Dù, who barely appeared in the top league, and the performance can be imagined.
In fact, they were able to stay with the team because they were the ones who were promoted to the top flight with Manchester City.
Such a player naturally doesn't have to expect anything.
On the front line, there is only one player that Wansheng really likes - Robbie Fowler. (To be continued......)
