Chapter 137 Lineup for the new season
Chapter 137 Lineup for the new season
Zheng Xian didn't know what to say when the head coach asked him his opinion on the current situation of the team.
He has not played in La Liga yet, nor has he played against a La Liga team. What is the real level of La Liga?
No intuitive impression yet.
With the team's current lineup, can it cope with La Liga?
Zheng Long is not too clear.
Zheng Long thought about it seriously, and said cautiously.
"Sir, I don't know much about the others. However, I think the team needs to consider introducing a good right back. If we play La Liga this season, it is hard to say whether the three-back lineup is suitable for La Liga. It is better to introduce a right back. Be safe, and have more tactical configurations!"
Popovich nodded when he heard it, and said: "This matter is also something that the team is considering and operating recently! The team is planning to introduce the right back of Lille, France."
Zheng Long's decision to stay in Zaragoza made the team rely more on him and planned to make him the team's top card.
Regarding some things about the team, Popovich plans to communicate with Zheng Long.
"Well! I believe the team has made efforts to improve their strength!" Zheng Long said politely.
"Dragon. What do you think about Nani and Costa, the two wingers? You know, their lease is coming up. Now you can either buy them out or let them go back!"
Of course, Popovich didn't simply ask about the shortcomings of Zheng Long's team, but more importantly, about the introduction of two players, Nani and Costa.
Nani, Costa and Zheng Long are all signed players under Mendes.
Regarding their handling, the team does not want to have any unpleasantness with Zheng Long. When Popovich met Zheng Long today, he just wanted to ask him about his attitude.In this way, the team is also easy to operate.
Thinking about the current situation of the team, Zheng Long said: "Joaquin played very well last season, but I think we need to consider his age. Costa is what the team needs! As for Nani..."
Joaquin is in good condition, but he is a veteran after all.
He needs a player with energy and impact to help him share the opponent's defensive pressure.
Although Costa played more as a substitute last season, he is young, energetic, and has good skills. He is a player with great potential.
Nani's words.Truth be told, sometimes he just doesn't feel right with the team.
But his skills are nothing to say, and it is enough to disrupt the situation.
"If the team can bring in better players, I have no other opinion!"
Zheng Long's meaning is already very clear.If it does not affect the strength of the team, he has no objection to the team's handling of Nani.
But if there is no way to introduce players of the same level of strength, support the team to buy out Nani.
Popovich already understood Zheng Long's attitude. "Well. I understand. If there is news, I will notify you as soon as possible!"
"Ok!"
……
Popovich communicated with Zheng Long about the team's recent operations, and Zheng Long continued his training.
While Zheng Long was busy training, the team tried to introduce players on the one hand, and on the other hand started negotiations with Manchester United and Atletico Madrid on the buyout of Nani and Costa.
Costa is basically determined to buy out, but on the issue of price, Zaragoza still wants to press again.
Nani's words, the team's attitude is ambiguous.
On the one hand, they are waiting for another signing, and at the same time, they have not interrupted the negotiations with Manchester United. The most important thing is that the buyout price cannot be negotiated.
Manchester United wants to recover the cost, and the price given is 1200 million euros.
But Zaragoza is unwilling to pay such a high price to buy out Nani.They feel that 500 million euros is enough.
The gap is too big, and there is no agreement at all for a while.
As time passed slowly, it was the end of July.
The schedule for the new season is out. On August 8, the first round of the 23-2015 La Liga season will begin.
In the first round, Zaragoza will challenge the strong rival Atletico Madrid away.
Since Simeone became the head coach of Atletico Madrid, his coaching philosophy has brought qualitative changes to Atletico Madrid.
Passionate and full of impact.
In the 2013-2014 season, Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona and Real Madrid to win the La Liga championship.
In the past season, it also ranked third and was a strong team in La Liga.
To beat such a strong team, the team needs a stable and mature tactical system.
After a long month of delay.Zaragoza did not reach an agreement with Schalke 04.
Schalke 04's asking price is too high, and the asking price is 2500 million euros.This is unacceptable to the small team Zaragoza.
Unable to introduce Leroy Sane, Zaragoza had to turn around and reach an agreement with Manchester United to introduce Nani at a price of 700 million euros.
Nani's transfer was settled. On the same day, Zaragoza introduced Costa for 1300 million euros.
Immediately afterwards, the young French right back Gibril Sidibe, born in 1000, was introduced from Lille for 1992 million euros, supplementing the team's biggest shortcoming.
These are Zaragoza's most important transfers.As for the promotion of 2 young players from the youth team to the 23-man roster, and the release of 3 young players at the same time, it did not cause any disturbance.
The determination of the players also made the head coach a headache for the new season's tactics and lineup.
In the new season, should we play the main offensive 343, 433, or should we play the defensive counterattack 4231, 4321?
What lineup and tactics are more suitable for La Liga?
Popovich didn't have the confidence in his heart, so he could only wait for the players to get together for training while working on the tactics.
On August 8, just about 2 days before the start of the new season.Zaragoza's team report day has arrived.
Zheng Long did not go to the training base today, and drove directly to the La Roma Radar Stadium
Not long after I came to the stadium to warm up, many teammates came to the stadium to report one after another.
Zaragoza was only a player in the West Second Division last season. Except for Nani, there are no other players who need to participate in international competitions.
So they can report to the team at this time.
Players like Nani will not be able to join the team until mid-August.
It is a good thing for Popovich that Zaragoza's lineup is relatively neat, and he can have time to adjust tactics and lineup.
As for Nani who did not come to report.
Anyway, he often drifts outside the team's tactics, so it's not a big problem.
A player's first day of reporting is usually a physical.
Zheng Xian, who came to Spain for training early, has adjusted his body to the best condition.
After measurement, head coach Popovich found that Zheng Long had grown by 5 centimeters compared to when he first joined the team last season.
Now at 1 meters, for a goalkeeper, being taller still has an advantage.
Especially when defending high-altitude balls and blocking the far corner, the tall and long-armed goalkeeper can arrive in time to block.
Now Zheng Long already has a very good goalkeeper figure.
Popovich is very satisfied with the results of Zheng Long's physical examination.
This shows that Zheng Long did not indulge himself during this holiday, on the contrary, he continued to work hard to improve himself.
This is rare.
There are many talented players who became famous at a young age, their heads were dazzled by success, and they couldn't find their own direction and the meaning of their efforts.
So he let himself down.
Popovich doesn't want Zheng Long to be like this.
Now it seems that Zheng Long is very self-disciplined.
In the new season, Zheng Long is the interceptor.
Popovich is confident that he will lead Zaragoza to a battle with any team!
Even if it is the giants Real Madrid and Barcelona, he is not afraid!
