PS4: Who would have thought that Italy, who is known as the weakest country in history, would actually qualify for the group one round earlier...... Well done Conte!

It is precisely for this reason that Zhuang Mingge is puzzled by Carlos's decision. After all, under the influence of Zhuang Mingge's philosophy, Fiorentina can be said to be very generous in treating these meritorious players, so it is basically impossible for any player to choose to leave the Purple Lily because of salary or personal treatment issues, but there are many examples like Ronaldo and Shevchenko who decided to transfer and leave because of too much competition pressure in the team.

In this way, Carlos's situation is very similar to Gabriel's back then, both of whom dedicated the most golden years of his career to Fiorentina, and after aging, he first resigned himself to the second line, taking on the task of passing and leading the young players in the team, and then had to choose because of the position of the national team......

Wait a minute...... Buddy? National? World cup? Could it be that Carlos did not make this decision because he was unhappy about losing his main place in Fiorentina, but because of the World Cup that will be held in Germany next year?

"Boss, I think, this probably has nothing to do with salary and treatment." Seeing that his boss seemed to have come to his senses, Mourinho opened his mouth to answer the doubts in Zhuang Mingge's heart, "You know, next year is a World Cup year. While Robert has been the best choice for Brazil at left wing-back for the past decade, he will need plenty of minutes to secure a place in Andreas Pereira's squad for the talented Samba Army. ”

"Is it really because of the World Cup? No wonder Robert is planning to leave Florence......" Zhuang Mingge, who had heard Mourinho's explanation and realized the root of the problem, said with a wry smile, "If that's the case, then I'm afraid we really don't have a good way to get Robert to stay." After all, with the ability he is showing now, it is impossible to sit in the main position in Fiorentina. ”

As he gets older and his physical fitness begins to decline, Carlos is no longer the super left-back who was able to take over all the offensive and defensive tasks on the entire left side three years ago. He likes to attack, and he frequently loses his position due to excessive pressure in the game, which is the most direct reason why Carlos was eventually replaced by the younger and more solid defence.

Without the temptation of the World Cup in Germany, Carlos himself would not have had any thoughts about being replaced by Zivo, but would have taught him his game experience and defensive skills honed over the years. However, with the World Cup set to be held in Germany next year and Carlos not wanting to miss out on a third World Cup for the Samba Army, it is only natural that Carlos would like to attract the attention of Brazil coach Andreas Pereira by playing in a team that is not lacking in popularity and allows him to play as a main player.

Zhuang Mingge knows that although Brazil, the football kingdom, does not produce many excellent defenders, in the position of left-back, in addition to Carlos, Pereira does have several good candidates available. For example, Maxwell, who is currently playing for Lazio, and Adriano, who was recommended to Ajax by Zhuang Mingge and is now well-known in European football (not the Inter king), are all very powerful players, and they are enough to impact Carlos's main position in the national team.

Although so far, Pereira is still based on fame in the selection of players, and at the same time try to ensure that the main members of the World Cup-winning team in 02 are in the national team squad, but no one dares to guarantee that by this time next year, the coach who once led Brazil to the top of the World Cup in the United States will suddenly change his employment strategy and adopt the same means as in '94, kicking those stars who are talented in attack but weak in defense out of the World Cup squad?

After all, Pereira has a history in this area. At the World Cup in the United States eleven years ago, when he was the head coach of the Brazilian national team, he pushed Layi, who was the number one star of the Brazilian team at the time, on the bench, and who can guarantee that Pereira would not do it this time?

Therefore, in order to ensure that he can occupy a place in the national team and get a third chance to compete in the World Cup, Carlos had to choose to leave Fiorentina, where he played for nearly nine years, to play at a club that can provide him with a main position. Otherwise, the former world No. 1 left-back would definitely choose to retire at the Purple Lily.

You know, clubs like Fiorentina that treat meritorious players well can be said to be rare in today's European football. With the exception of AC Milan and Roma, two clubs that have done a decent job of this, most teams are the kind of clubs who kick players out of the way when they lose their usefulness, and few clubs have been able to do that.

'Well, it looks like we're not only going to have to find another good replacement for Andre [Pirlo] this summer, but we're also going to have to bring in a backup left-back." After confirming to Mourinho and Antonioni that Carlos would definitely not be able to stay in Fiorentina, Zhuang Mingge had to say with regret, "With our current popularity in Fiorentina, it shouldn't be a big problem to find a substitute left-back, at least not as difficult as when I found a replacement for Andre last year." ”

Although Fiorentina has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for the second year in a row, even so, the Purple Lilies are still the strongest club in Europe. Many people can see that the reason why Fiorentina has not been able to lift the St. Bride Cup in the past two years is mainly because of the luck of the pit dad and the slightly thin bench depth in the case of multi-front battles.

And compared with the extremely competitive midfield, Fiorentina is basically a carrot and a pit in the backline, and no one is just eating rice and not working. Therefore, Fiorentina's place at left-back is undoubtedly very tempting for players who are hungry for trophies and at the same time do not have a position crisis in the national team.
