218 Bassak Star
"Albelda, high ball...... Jankoller, Jankoller leaned on Pep Guardiola and headed the ball to Mendieta. Mendieta, pass! ”
"López, López got the ball. He was offside and he burst past Reziger. López he inserts into the box and shoots! ”
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Benitez's Valencia and Ranieri's Valencia have not changed much. The midfield is based on Claude Makelele and Albelda as defensive midfielders, and their task is to intercept in the middle of the field. Needless to say, Albelda, as a young man at 22 years old, is currently one of the most defensive midfielders in Spanish football.
Albelda's excellent positioning, not slow speed, strong tackling ability, is a very famous tough guy in Spanish football. With Claude Makelele and Albelda protected, Valencia's backline is solid. It is precisely because of them that there is enough space for Mendieta to play freely. Left, center, right does not limit Mendieta, and Benitez gives Mendieta the most power.
Then López and Angulo are both good counter-attackers. Angulo is a traditional Spanish winger, fast and passionate, and very fast on the right side when counter-attacking. And López is a counter-attacking general.
Benitez used Jankole to suppress the opponent's backline, and then relied on Mendieta, López, and Angulo to counterattack. Because there is enough space, it is just right for the three of them to play.
That's what happened with Barcelona this time. Claude Makelele and Albelda controlled the midfield and frantically scrambled for the ball. After grabbing the ball, it was handed directly to Jankoller. Jankoller is not bad at his feet. But the best part is the header. Among the current defenders in Spanish football, the one who surpasses Jankole in header contention has not yet been born.
Jankoller's header advantage was too great. He was able to watch his team-mate's movements calmly and handed the ball to Mendieta in the back. Mendieta has a strong ball control, a good passing ability, and a passing ability.
So when you stop the ball, it's a beautiful through stop. Passing through the junction between Barcelona's centre-back and full-back was just the right time for Lopes to use his explosiveness and speed. This is the most suitable style of play for López's counter-attack. After López launched, Reziger simply couldn't keep up with López.
Barcelona played with a back three, with only De Boer at centre-back. After López ran, Reziger was already thrown away, and even De Boer was too late. So De Boer could only drop back to protect the goal, but Lopes did not enter the box. Rather, it is inserted from the left side. It was a left-footed shot straight away. The ball flew in from the near corner.
"López. Lopez. Lopes is truly a Barsac star, it was his eleventh match against Barcelona in Valencia and his twelfth goal for Barca in Valencia. López is a veritable Barsac star. ”
Worm Lopes has been Barcelona's number one nemesis since he joined Valencia. As long as he faces Barcelona, López is crazy. He faced Barcelona with a one-goal rhythm of one goal.
"Jaime. López is such a good player. He is also a good fighter for counterattacks. It's just right for Valencia right now. ”
This is already the ninth round of La Liga this season. Valencia's results were not great, though. In the previous eight rounds, Valencia only got two wins, four draws and two losses, and the points were only 10 points. They are currently only eighth in La Liga. Therefore, the pressure on Benitez is relatively high. After all, Ranieri allowed Valencia to enter the Champions League last season. However, after the start of the season, they only finished eighth. The important thing is that the opponents in the first eight rounds were not too strong, but there were four draws.
This is the ninth round of the match, and they face La Liga giants Barcelona at home. Rist looked at the game and knew a little about it. At the moment, Benitez's transformation of Valencia is not over. Valencia's current style of play is relatively simple, relying more on counter-attacks. In the face of weak teams, there is no room for counterattack. In the face of a team with an attacking style of play like Barcelona, it performed very well.
As long as Benitez is given some time, Rist believes Valencia's attack will become much richer. Rafael Benitez is a master tactician, and designing a variety of tactics is his forte. After a while, Rist believes that there will not be only one way to fight back, as he is now.
"Yes."
Ottie nodded. For Otti, the results this season are not very good, but they are not unsightly at all. Because although Valencia is in eighth place, the fourth place in La Liga is only 14 points, and even the third place is only 16 points. The gap between everyone is not big, until the third place is only six points, which is the difference of two games. As long as Valencia have two wins, they will soon be able to close the gap.
Therefore, he has not taken a position now, and it is not time for him to take a stand. He also needs to pay attention to the fact that although Benitez, who is only 39 years old at the moment, has been criticized by the media, Otti is still relatively satisfied.
"Inter and Parma are both interested in López, what do you mean?"
After coming to Valencia, Lister understood that Weishenme Kragnotti would be in such a hurry. Since Rist wanted to help, of course, he found someone to understand the current situation of López. After this understanding, Rist knew a lot. It's not just Lazio that are interested in López right now, Inter Milan and Parma in Serie A are also interested in López. Valencia's tough rejection of Lazio in the summer made López a little angry.
When he heard the news, Rist relieved most of his heart. As long as López is willing to move and Valencia is willing to let go, then the deal will be much simpler. Because among the many buyers, recommending Lazio could not be easier for Rist. And Lazio is generous in spending, which is on par with Inter's Moratti.
"What does Raphael want to ask?"
Otti thought of Benitez. After all, López is now a very important player for Benitez, if the club sells López. He must have had something else in mind.
Rist didn't reply, and Ottie assumed it to be. Therefore, he sighed weakly and said: "Lister, it is already difficult for me to keep Lopes for a season, and his agent has already expressed his dissatisfaction to me. If López is forced to stay again next season, I am afraid that he will directly resist. If everyone really tears their faces, it may be a chicken and egg fight at that time. I can't keep the players, but I can't keep López's heart. His performance is not good, and when the time comes, it will be us who will be unlucky when his value drops. ”
Reesette nodded. Although Valencia is also a traditional Spanish powerhouse, at present, European football is still the world of Serie A. Serie A is the most haode league, and almost all good players are running to Serie A. López is no exception.
Since it is impossible to stay. Then it's easy to say. So Rist said, "Jaime." Before I came to Spain, I received a phone call from President Cragnotti of Lazio. Didn't he want López this summer? He is not dead yet, and wishes to express to you their Lazio position through me. ”
"Lazio?"
Ottie's face darkened for a moment, and then he said angrily, "Lister, it's not me who said that. Craniotti's son is more difficult to serve than his son. ”
Rist laughed. It turned out that Ottie and Little Craniotti were in a dirty relationship. The one who came to talk to Lazio about López this summer was Cragnotti Jr. Ottie's words don't end. continued: "But we are in business. I don't care about those things. How much Lazio is willing to pay. ”
Ottie didn't like Cragnoti Jr. But calm. In business, you can't put your personal preferences in business.
"It depends on how big your appetite is. But I think it's about the same between 30 million and 35 million, and if you have the ability, you can sell 35 million. It's all your business, as long as you're willing to sell López. And López himself should have chosen Lazio. Because Lazio has a lot of his Argentine teammates. ”
Ottie didn't reply directly. He already understood what Rist meant, and Rister was coming to talk to him on behalf of Lazio. He has no resistance to López's move to Lazio, as long as he gives money everywhere.
Between 30 million euros and 35 million euros, that's a good transfer fee. Otti thought for a moment and said to Lister: "If Lazio are willing to buy Lopes after a season, and there is enough transfer fee, our club can consider it. ”
"Then it's decided."
Talking about López turned out to be far simpler than Rist thought. Otti had long considered not being able to keep López, which saved Rist a lot of saliva. If Otti didn't have the idea of selling López, it would have been much more difficult to convince him.
Rist was in a good mood, looked at Otti and said, "Jaime, have you ever thought about López's replacement?" ”
"Considering. After all, there is still a season to go, and I believe we should be able to find it. ”
Rist smiled and said, "How's it going, Jaime." If you believe me, I'll recommend you two players how. I can guarantee that the two players I recommend to you are not as expensive as Lopez, and the two together are not as expensive as Lopez. But neither of the two is worse than López. If you can take both of them down, Valencia's strength will go to the next level. ”
Hearing Rist's words, Ottie immediately sat up straight. He doesn't underestimate Rister in the slightest, not because Rist is currently an agent with a lot of players. Mainly because of his vision. Several of the players he recommended to Valencia, as well as those he recommended in his partnership with Estrimadura, were outstanding. Therefore, he also wanted to hear about the players recommended by Rist.
"One is Vicente, the left winger of the Esttremadura club. If it comes to counter-attacking ability on the left side, Vicente is no worse than Lopez, or even better than him. And Vicente is young, not worth much, and is still a native Spanish player. ”
"He seems to be your player, and half of the ownership is in your hands?"
Vicente is the shining star of La Liga in the past two seasons. This season he has become the main left winger in Extremadura and has performed very well. A lot of teams are looking at Vicente's development.
"Jaime, I'm not going to smash my own sign. Vicente is my player, but if he doesn't have the quality to establish himself in Valencia. So for the sake of my reputation and for the sake of the future of my players, I wouldn't recommend it to you. Since I recommend it to you, it is because Vicente has the quality to be a main force in Valencia. ”
Rist, the player who recommended him, didn't feel embarrassed at all. Because Vicente was there, Rist didn't treat Valencia badly. On the contrary, Lister recommended Vicente, which was for Valencia's benefit.
"Go on, there is one more player who is ......"
"Jaime, the player I'm going to recommend to you now is no ordinary person. He is a super talent no less talented than Ronaldo, a player who can become a football king in the future. ”
Hearing such a high evaluation of Lister, Ottie's eyes widened. Because he was surprised, although he had not known Lister for a long time, he also knew that Lister would not talk falsely.
What is a player whose talent is no less than Ronaldo's and can become the king of the ball in the future. This evaluation is too high, outrageously high. So he wanted to know who it was that could make Rist look so differently.
"Ronaldinho from PSV Eindhoven. I'm nineteen years old, and I'll be twenty next spring. It's the most talented player I've seen so far, and if Valencia can take him, it will be pie in the sky. (To be continued......)
