"Sandro, I'll be bold enough to say it. You and Huo An are both people who value their youth training, and I think this line of thinking is very correct. Promoting great Academy players and then bringing in some good players should be the best strategy for a strong team to be sustainable. At the moment, Barcelona have players like Valdés, Puyol, Xavi and the young Andres Iniesta. That Mota isn't bad either. ”

Speaking of Barcelona's academy players, Rosell nodded. In fact, at present, Barcelona's youth players have not come out at all, far less than Real Madrid. In terms of Spanish football, although Barcelona's youth training is good, it has not reached the top level. Real Madrid already has Raul, Casillas, Guti and other well-known players. Raul is already a superstar, Casillas is also the main goalkeeper of the national team, and Guti is a little worse but also a talented midfielder with great energy.

And Valdés on Barcelona's side is not the absolute main force of the first team, and he has just played in the first team at Barcelona. Iniesta didn't even mix up the main substitution. Of course, this has something to do with Iniesta's age, and Iniesta is only eighteen years old at the moment. Even if the players Puyol and Xavi, who have become the absolute main players of Barcelona, are far less famous than later, at most they are slightly famous. And Motta is vague at all Barcelona academy, if you trace the source but it is a player from Brazil, he came to Barcelona at the age of seventeen, and he is now twenty years old, and he has not achieved any outstanding results. Therefore, the front is just that Rister has given gold to the current Barcelona youth training.

"But they're not enough. Since the Boseman Act, clubs that rely solely on their own youth training have become extinct. This is not even more likely to be the case with a giant like Barcelona. But I'll start with the players in the Barcelona team who should be purged at the moment. ”

"First of all, Riquelme. Speaking of which, Riquelme is really a genius. It is not unreasonable for Argentine football to regard Riquelme as the successor of the football king, and he has enough talent to become a generation of football kings. It's a pity that the current shijie football world is not ten years ago, if it was ten years ago, Riquelme would definitely be the superstar of that generation. It's a pity that the current European football scene is no longer the time for players like Riquelme to be wanton. It is impossible for a wealthy family to put the treasure on one person. ”

Speaking of Riquelme, he was definitely born at the wrong time, and Rister sighed for him every time he thought about it. A player of this type like Riquelme, if he is placed in the front of Shijie football, is definitely the brightest star. Maybe the achievements will not be lower than that of a superstar player like Zico. It's a pity that with the advent of full-time defensive midfielders, and modern football, which pays more and more attention to overall defense, is to strangle Riquelme's type of classical midfielder.

"That's what I thought about too. Lister, the Ronaldinho you recommended, I have investigated it in depth. Modern football is becoming more and more about speed. Riquelme's rhythm does not correspond to the development of modern football. Ronaldinho is exactly what you say. It is very suitable for the current Barça, suitable for becoming the new core of Barça. ”

Abandoning Riquelme as the core is the consensus of everyone. Rosell also believes that Riquelme is not suitable for a giant like Barcelona. So hearing Rist's words, Russell nodded.

"So. Sandro. Riquelme should not stay at Barca. His sweet spot is at the heart of some mid-table teams. Barcelona could try to send him out on loan. ”

"Yes."

Riquelme is outstanding. But it's not so easy to sell him in a short period of time. Rental is a very good option.

"Villarreal, I spoke to Mr. Roygue. They are serious about wanting to take Riquelme on loan. Sandro, if Riquelme is really loaned out at that time. I hope you will give priority to Villarreal. ”

"I'll think about it."

The relationship between Rist and Villarreal, Russell is well clear. Not to mention anything else, Rist's development in Spanish football so far has been a smooth sail. But the first time I went to the city was in Valencia. At that time, Rist was a rare member of the board battle in Valencia, and it was Francisco who supported him. Royg. Now Villarreal Fernando. Roig was his younger brother.

But Russell didn't find it inappropriate. Because after Riquelme left Barcelona, a loan was inevitable. But to whom is lent is a question. As for Villarreal, the relationship between Villarreal and Barcelona has always been good, and Barcelona's academy goalkeeper Reina is currently on loan to Villarreal. And even if Rist were to take Riquelme out on loan to Villarreal for his own benefit, it would be normal. How could Rist help Laporta's campaign if he had no interests. Speaking of which, Rist has every right to do so at Barca.

'In addition to Riquelme, I'll talk about some of the other players. Ovimas, who is not at half the level of the Arsenal era now, has become a chicken rib in Barcelona. Ovimas lost a lot of money on this deal, and Barça lost a lot. Not just the transfer fee, but also his salary, it should be time to decide. Including Kluivert, the form is too unstable, the performance is really poor. If Barcelona wants to revivenation, they need a goalscorer, a goalscorer who can score goals consistently. Kluivert is clearly not in this ranks. ”

Because of Cruyff, the Dutch gang in Barcelona has always been the most powerful faction. But it is precisely for this reason that the Dutch gang and the local players have always been at odds with each other, especially in the last two years. After discussing with Laporta and Russell, Rist was able to understand their thoughts. Although Laporta admires Cruyff, he has absolutely no dislike for Dutch players. Laporta and Rosell both believe that Barcelona should be purged of the Dutch Shili. Rist was just following them.

"Do you really want to move them?"

"Yes. Sandro, there is an old Chinese saying that when you are decided, you are constantly suffering from chaos. Although Barcelona is a giant, it is definitely a huge burden to raise so many stars. It is necessary to deal with it, and it is precisely by virtue of the opportunity for the new chairman to take office that it is the best way to do it. ”

Russell sighed. When Barcelona bought them, they were all stars in European football. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, they have reached the time when they need to deal with it. In this back and forth, Barcelona doesn't know how much money it has lost.

"Go on."

"I won't go into the details of some of the other players, but I talked about them in my report. I'll talk about the other player, Saviola. ”

"Saviola? Do you think he should be cleaned too? ”

Rusell was somewhat dissatisfied with Saviola, but not with his strength, but with his salary. Although Saviola became famous at the World Youth Championships, Barcelona was just a rising star when he introduced him. But Gaspat was simply insane. At that time, the top superstars in European football had an annual salary of only 6 million euros. A large number of superstars, including Real Madrid, have salaries in the range of six million euros.

But Gaspart, a madman, went so far as to offer a salary of six million euros for Saviola, a fledgling talent. At first, everyone thought that Barcelona had snatched a talent like Saviola, but now they realize that the salary is too high.

"Sandro, Saviola's problem must be resolved. Barcelona wants to rebuild, not just bring in players. Maybe their players will be based on Saviola's salary, what will you do then? Six million euros, what level of salary is this. Real Madrid's Raul, Zidane, and Ronaldo's salaries are also at this level. ”

"Selling? Salary cuts? ”

At the moment, Saviola's performance at Barcelona is not very bad. Russell didn't think about cleaning Saviola, but he was always worried about his salary.

"Sandro, do you know Saviola's agent, Suela?"

"I've heard of it, but I haven't had any contact. You should know that I have a lot of ties to Brazilian football, but I don't have much contact with Argentine football. ”

"Sandro, this person is not easy to mess with. I wasn't very familiar with him, so I was a general acquaintance. But many peers commented on him that this person has a strong wrist, and he will not let himself lose a little bit of benefits. It's hard and hard to get Saviola to take a pay cut. If he is not willing to take a pay cut, even if Barcelona wants to sell it, no club will buy it. ”

Raiola later became famous and was considered a vampire. In fact, Suela's reputation at this time is not much better than his, but Suela does not have the wrist of Raiola.

"So what do you mean?"

"Let's rent. Continue to reuse him, and the salaries of the other main players will be on par with Saviola. Sell, as long as Saviola doesn't take a pay cut, it's hard to sell. The best way to do this is to force them to take a pay cut, and if they don't take a pay cut, they go out on loan. ”

Don't say it's just Saviola, even if it's stronger than Saviola, sometimes you have to be ruthless. It's not a matter of two players, it's about the success of Barca's generation. As long as there is a benchmark like Saviola, those agents of Barcelona will definitely fight for enough benefits for their players. At that time, it will put a lot of financial pressure on Barcelona. Therefore, Saviola must be cleaned up, whether it is suppressed, loaned, or sold, it must not disrupt Barcelona's normal salary system.

"Hmph. I don't know what Gaspat was missing in his head, how he signed this kind of contract. Six million euros, really don't take the club's money as money. ”

Russell complained about Gasparter. In fact, this transfer is not only worth complaining about, and even Lister believes that there is definitely something greasy in it. Because Gaspart has a good personal relationship with Suela, and he is crazy about giving Saviola a salary of six million euros, if there is no cat, Rist will not believe it. In any case, Gaspat is a veteran negotiator, how could he give such a salary.

"Sandro, it's not just one or two of Gasparter's messes. There's a lot more to deal with. ”

"Yes. Rist, after talking about the players that should be cleaned up, let's talk about the players to be brought in. (To be continued......)
