Chapter Seventy-Two: A Promise

Last season's Serie A, the most surprising was undoubtedly Atalanta, led by Degan, who won both the Serie A and Coppa Italia titles all season with Degan's terrifying goalscoring efficiency and near-perfect team play.

But if you want to ask which team disappointed the most last season, Fiorentina is undoubtedly one of them, bringing in a group of big-name stars in the summer transfer, enough to put together a luxurious squad, vowing to return to the ranks of the strong team, but the final result has been struggling in the relegation circle, until Zuihou defeated Brescia and barely succeeded in relegation, making fans worry to the limit.

Fiorentina brought in a large number of powerful players such as Hidetoshi Nakata, Maresca, Mikoli, and Ujfarusi in one go last season, and the team's top management made no secret of their goal, which is to enter the European arena.

In fact, given the composition and strength of Florence at the time, this was not too much to ask. But it is precisely this that hurts the whole team, because it is the introduction of a new squad in the transfer, on the one hand, it has caused a contradiction between the club's original shili and the newly introduced players, and more importantly, the team cannot quickly integrate into a whole in a short period of time.

Although they lost 0:1 to Roma in the first game, the team played with great momentum and gave people unlimited room for reverie. Unexpectedly, in fact, Roma's strength has declined significantly, this illusion has made Fiorentina suffer a lot, overestimating their strength, so that they are extremely passive in the later games, and Dravalai failed to achieve good results in the case of large investment, and fired the coach several times in a hurry, and introduced Bulgarian teenager Bodinov in the middle of the season, but unfortunately the latter has been injured and has not been able to play his role, and finally has been struggling in the relegation zone.

In the new season, Fiorentina continued the style of last season, and the team has undergone another major change. From coaches to players, the opportunity has been completely transformed.

Former Parma coach Prandelli has joined this luxury division, which is good news for the team, last season, including Zoff, coaches did not lead the team to good results, but at least it can make the club a little less impulsive, give the coach a little more opportunities and time, and last season's poor results, objectively, also gave him a relatively low, coaching environment will be much more relaxed.

In fact, Fiorentina had been trying to ask Prandelli to come out last season, but had to give up because the latter's wife had been sick.

Now that the club's ambition and sincerity have finally impressed the manager, the partnership between the two sides is sure to make the team grow by leaps and bounds.

In terms of players, a number of players such as striker Micoli, Hidetoshi Nakata, and Chiellini have not played well, and the veteran Di Livio has retired, which is a relatively big change.

In fact, Hidetoshi Nakata's performance at Fiorentina was extremely poor, and he could only play as a substitute in the later stages, while Mikoli, although slightly better, was still far from matching his value.

In terms of team introduction, the addition of striker Tony and goalkeeper Frei will greatly improve the strength of the team. Toney was one of the best performers in Italy last season in Palermo.

However, due to the limited fame of the club, he has not been able to play in the national team for a long time, and now that the Shijie Cup is approaching, it is clear that Tony will have to go to a bigger club to fight for more opportunities to perform.

Although Fiorentina did not perform well last season, their fame is clearly not comparable to that of Palermo. Toni is tall, his header is superb, and he has all the qualities of a high school striker.

The introduction of Pazzini and Montolivo is another victory for Fiorentina in the summer transfer, although last season's Atalanta obscured a lot of Pazzini and Montolivo because of the presence of the freak of Degan.

But there is no doubt that Pazzini and Montolivo, the twin stars cultivated by the Atalanta academy, are definitely among the best among Italian youth players.

Pazzini may not be the kind of striker who can solve problems with a single blow, but his ability to take chances in front of goal, as well as his ability to play wide is outstanding, and his previous combination with Deegan has proven that he is definitely a suitable person for a second striker.

There is also Montolivo, last season's success of Degan is definitely half of the credit of Montolivo, and throughout the season, Montolivo has provided a total of 21 assists for Degan, almost half of Degan's goals.

In the position of midfielder, Montolivo is not the most prominent in Serie A, but it is definitely a well-known powerhouse.

There is also Albertini, the Italian veteran who made a second spring in Atalanta, opted to move to Fiorentina in the summer and immediately became a regular in the team, conceding just four goals at the back in the first seven games, even one less than Juventus.

Not only in Fiorentina, but also in the Italian national team, Albertini also regained his main position, and the core of AC Milan's midfield, when he was in the national team, he could only play as a substitute.

The addition of Parma goalkeeper Frei, which has added another barrier to the defensive line, although Parma conceded a lot of goals last season, but this can not hide Frei's strength in the slightest, if it were not for his left and right blocks countless times to resolve the danger, I believe Parma is now preparing for the second division.

Including Bayern and many other giants have been favoring him, which is enough to show his strength, this time back to the mentor's account to continue the front, Frei also said that he must help the team return to Europe.

In addition to the two of them, Fiorentina have also brought in a number of stars such as Danish midfielder Jorgensen, veteran Pancaro and Mofeo, who has struggled in Spain, and the team has grown significantly, even if it enters the Champions League.

However, Fiorentina is still facing the same problem as last season, the run-in problem of the squad, if Prandelli can have a haode solution to the problem, then Fiorentina will be very strong to compete for a ticket to the Champions League.

At Parma, Prandelli's side were the most spectacular teams in Italy, with a powerful centre-forward Adriano and a fast-paced winger Mutu, the kind of beautiful defensive counter-attacking that is unforgettable.

Now that Toney and Pazzini have the potential to replicate the formidable strikers of the past, with their current staffing on par with Parma at the time, there is every reason to expect Fiorentina to perform.

Fiorentina has performed very well in the new season, with five wins, one draw and one loss in seven games, ranking third in the standings, behind Juventus and AC Milan, and there is a good chance of qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League.

"Rod! Our goal is not to stay in Italy forever or to play in the Champions League every season, we have more ambitious goals, and you are the most important part of achieving this goal! ”

Mendes also interjected at this time: "Rod! Although I don't want to say this, however, your situation in AC Milan is really difficult, it's not a matter of strength, with your strength, you can get the main position in any European giant, but Ancelotti doesn't want to give you this opportunity, he admires Shevchenko, and now Inzaghi has also paid, Gilardino's performance is getting better and better, which will squeeze your living space in Milan! You're still young, you still have a lot of room for improvement, and I don't want you to waste your time in Milan! ”

Deegan looked at Mendes and said: "But, if I'm not mistaken, didn't you always wish I could join Chelsea?" ”

Mendes heard Digan mention this matter again, and suddenly smiled helplessly: "Of course I hope you can go to Chelsea, after all, I can get more salary than there, and I will be paid more, but I have thought it clear now, if I bring you to Chelsea, it is estimated that I will be very uncomfortable between you and Jose, you are all people with outstanding personalities, and Jose's tactics, you will not appreciate it, but Coach Prandelli's Fiorentina is different, he is a coach who advocates attack, He doesn't look like an Italian at all, and you get the most out of it! ”

Mendes has unknowingly begun to encourage Digan to switch to Fiorentina, and Delawa also looked at Digan with an expectant face.

At first, Del Valle didn't really care about Fiorentina, but with the team returning to Serie A, he realized that he couldn't do without football at all, and he hoped that Fiorentina could achieve more success.

I have to admit that Deegan is really moved!

However, he had some concerns, after all, he didn't want to repeat what had already happened at AC Milan.

Delawala, apparently guessing Degan's concerns, continued, "Rod! Originally, Coach Prandelli was going to come with me today, but he still has to prepare for the midweek game, so I can only come alone, what I can tell you is that you are a player he admires very much, Fiorentina's main center forward is Luca, but in the heart of Coach Prandelli, you are the most suitable person for the main center forward! ”

Trusting his own manager, familiar team-mates, an ambitious club president, these are all things that Deegan expects.

After thinking about it, Deegan finally spoke: "Mr. Dravalai! Can you keep being as committed to the team as you are now? It's still a momentary passion, just want to have fun! ”

Any club wants to have a crazy chairman like Roman Abramovich who doesn't take money as money, but it also doesn't want the chairman to be a person who is only three minutes hot, and when he sees that his investment is not rewarded, he will be impetuous, and even disturb the peace of the whole team.

Delava's tone softened a lot when he saw Digan, and he hurriedly said, "Of course! I've already discussed it with Coach Prandley and I made a commitment when I first invited him, and I won't be stingy with my commitment to the team! But everything must be rationalized! ”

De La Vale did not blindly make promises because he was in a hurry to impress De Gan, which was appreciated by De Gan, at least De La Vale was better than the previous president of Florence. Gauci is much more reliable.

If it was the former Digan, maybe he really agreed, his soul is a Chinese, the philosophical idea of the Chinese is to die for the confidant, since he was injured, AC Milan has not even seen a person, and the thirsty Florence is actually his chairman personally sent out to lobby, this value alone is enough to make Digan desperately nod and agree.

But after these twists and turns in Milan, Digan didn't dare to promise anything to others easily.

"Mr. Delaware! The fact that you have come to Brussels to say these words to me has shown me the sincerity of Florence, but I cannot make any promises to you at this time. ”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Delaware's eyes, and he said, "Rod! You can call me Andrea, that's my name, and even if you don't want to come to Florence, I hope we can be friends! ”

Deegan smiled and said, "Of course, it's my pleasure, Andre!" So be it! If I leave Milan one day, Fiorentina will be my first choice, but I hope that when I choose Fiorentina, Fiorentina will at least qualify for the European Champions Cup! I want to be able to show my strength on a big stage! ”

Seeing off Delaware, Mendes looked at Digan and said, "Rod! Have you already decided? ”

Deegan didn't nod or shake his head: "No! Not yet, but Florence is an option! ”

Mendes knows that Digan still has no heart to give up, and he still wants to succeed in AC Milan, although there are some words that are not easy to say, but Mendes feels that this possibility is really small, at least when Ancelotti is sitting in the AC Milan coaching box, Digan wants to succeed in AC Milan, this expectation is very small.

"Herhaus! Now is not the time to think about those things, maybe when I get better, I won't be able to go back to the way I used to be, and then maybe I will have to go to a small club to continue my career and then retire! ”

Mendes was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Degan smiling, he reacted, Degan was just joking, he was really worried before he came, this injury would cause a certain degree of blow to Degan's heart.

"Rod! You're going to succeed, I promise, and I can never be wrong! ”

"I hope so!"

By the time Dravere returned to Italy, the eighth round of Serie A had come to an end and AC Milan had won again, beating Palermo 2-1 at home to the San Siro to make it five wins in a row and still three points behind Juventus in second place.

In the first half, Caracciolo scored a goal for Palermo before Gattuso equalised with a rare shijie wave. In the second half, substitute Inzaghi scored his first goal since his comeback and his first Serie A goal since March 2004.

After the goal, Inzaghi rushed directly to the camera, lifted his shirt, and wrote a line on his shirt: Rode! Don't forget our promise!

Degan looked at the words on the TV screen, just smiled faintly, but his heart couldn't help but be moved, at least not everyone had forgotten him.
