Chapter 692 This is Professional Football!
"Master Huan, it's done!"

In the Inter Milan stands at the Friuli Stadium in Udinese, the potbellied Raiola walked through the narrow aisle and came to Yang Huan, who was wearing oversized black sunglasses, and shouted as soon as he sat down.

"Widmer and Alan belong to Inter Milan!"

Yang Huan laughed when he heard it, and praised, "Good job!"

Looking at the pitch, Alan was wearing Udinese's No. [-] jersey, sitting on the right side of the midfield, and his performance was quite eye-catching.

But now the score is two to zero, and Inter Milan, who are playing away, took the lead with the goals of Palacio and Ranocchia.

The assists for these two players were Teidel and Cambiasso.

This also gave Yang Huan a thought, maybe he can consider letting Cambiasso bring Kranivet more in the next six months, since they are all Argentines after all.

It’s also interesting to say that this has just fired an Argentine barbecue gang, and then brought in Dybala, Kranivet, and if Icardi and Palacio are added, isn’t this another new barbecue gang?
Not only Argentina, but also the Brazilian samba gang in the team. For example, Alex Sandro, Juan Jr., Alan and Felipe Anderson have also reached four players, which is comparable to the barbecue gang.

But the local faction has also been strengthened, mainly concentrated in the defense, such as Ranocchia and Damian.

As for the teenagers Rugani and Romagnoli, after negotiations, although Inter Milan won them, they decided to continue to loan them out. After all, at their age, it is still difficult to play the main force in Inter Milan.

In the past few days, Yang Huan was based in Italy. On the one hand, he strictly controlled the situation of the team so that Mazari could take over Pinettina smoothly. On the other hand, he was also dealing with the progress of the plan for Milan Commercial City.

For example, the land auction, under his supervision and urging, the land auction will start soon.

This game is an away game for Inter Milan. Yang Huan originally didn't plan to come, but because the opponent is Udinese, Yang Huan planned to come to watch the game and inspect Alan and Widmer by the way.

As a result, from this point of view, both players are quite good, especially Alan, who is too eye-catching.

"To be honest, Mino, Alan is a player who can get 1000 million euros?" Yang Huan was a little disbelieving.

He hadn't watched Alan's game before, but now that he saw it, he felt that unless Udinese was blind, how could it be possible to post a price tag of 1000 million euros for such a midfielder who can attack and defend well, but also has a pretty good footwork?
You know, the players trained by Udinese are for sale!
"How is it? Pretty good, right?" Raiola asked with a smile.

He is also happy that the players he recommended are appreciated by Master Huan.

"Excellent running ability and solid technique, he can be called a ball-grabbing machine!" Yang Huan nodded.

"Udinese's head coach Guidolin is also full of praise for him, calling him Emerson!"

"Emmerson?" Of course Yang Huan had heard of this Brazilian player.

"Yes!" Raiola obviously guessed what Master Huan was thinking, "Actually, Emerson, who just landed in Serie A in the early days, played not as a midfielder, but as a midfielder, or as a central midfielder. He is also very good at offense and defense, quite eye-catching."

"Oh!" Yang Huan finally felt relieved, fortunately he thought it was Emerson who hit the midfielder in the later stage!

"After Alan came to Serie A, he has made great progress. The team has an experienced midfielder like Ping Qi leading him, and his defense has improved rapidly. It is said that in order to cultivate him, Udinese also asked him to learn Marchisio's off-the-ball running and playing."

Yang Huan understands that this is quite normal when the club trains a player.

You must know that cultivating a player requires a lot of hard work and energy. Among other things, researching the strengths and weaknesses of players, formulating a set of targeted intensive training, and arranging experienced coaches to provide one-on-one supervision and counseling all require investment.

Others don't know, but Yang Huan knows better than anyone else.

Don't look at the Southampton youth training camp that has produced a large number of talents in recent years, but with so much investment behind it every year, who can see it?
Look at Ajax again, why hasn't there been much talent output in recent years?

Not because of lack of money?
Experienced coaches in European football are so expensive, and the rich and powerful top league teams have begun to pay attention to youth training again, and spend a lot of money poaching those youth training coaches, which directly leads to the fact that teams without money cannot retain people at all.

No one, no matter how many star embryos you have, how many can you train?
Van der Vaart, Sneijder, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and others back then, which one was not cultivated under the one-on-one training of experienced youth training experts?
Oh, eating a big pot of rice can cultivate such a star?

Therefore, in many cases, some teams with insufficient financial resources treat potential rookies differently, focusing on those stars who have the potential to sell high prices, while others lower their specifications, and some even simply stock them.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are cases of players who are stocked suddenly playing highlights, but after all, there are too few.

The youth training these years is also a reward for hard work!

"Mino, why are you so familiar with the situation in Udinese?" Yang Huan asked with interest.

Raiola smiled slightly, "Master Huan, you don't think that so many rookies in Udinese, who sold so many people, are all operated by their club?"

Yang Huan suddenly understood a little bit, but he didn't ask any more questions, but turned to another player.

"How is Nainggolan?" Yang Huan asked concerned.

Raiola thought for a while, "I dare say that in Serie A, he is definitely ranked in the top five, even the top three midfielders, and his style is also very compatible with Mazzarri's Inter Milan!"

Yang Huan was relieved at this moment, Raiola's vision was quite reliable.

This can be seen from the fact that he chose Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the beginning, and then he followed Pogba and Balotelli successively.

Moreover, it is estimated that this time Inter Milan is still thanks to him, which made Udinese sell Alan at a low price.

"Don't worry, Mino, I won't let you suffer!"

Raiola hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Master Huan, you will be offended if you say that. We are friends and partners. If you say a word, I will definitely go through fire and water!"

Just kidding, if he asks for favors from Master Huan by taking advantage of this small favor now, then he really underestimates him.

The project that Young Master Huan gave him before, located next to the Doha Yacht Wharf, could earn him at least 3000 to [-] million euros in less than three years, which is already quite a huge profit for him.

His calculations are also very shrewd. It doesn't take much, as long as Master Huan introduces some small money-making projects that he doesn't like in the future to Raiola, the Italian fat man can make a lot of money.

As for player transfers, that's trivial!

Yang Huan didn't say anything more, if you want to give someone money, they don't want it, so you can't force it, right?

On the court, Inter Milan, which leads by two goals, did not have an overwhelming advantage as shown in the score.

On the contrary, Inter Milan's game was dull.

The Italian coach used a set of three-back tactics in Naples to play a variety of tricks, but when it came to Inter Milan, this set of tactics obviously couldn't work.

Naples sits on the three frontcourts of Cavani, Lavezzi and Hamsik. This combination is in Serie A, even Juventus can't match it. Coupled with the excellent midfielder, Naples' offensive and defensive performances are impressive.

But after coming to Inter Milan, there was no one in the frontcourt, no one in the midfield, and there were a lot of people in the backcourt, but the strength of the players was limited.

In this case, it is a bit inappropriate to continue to play three central defenders!

After all, the three-back tactic requires very high discipline from the players, they need to cooperate with each other tacitly, and the individual abilities of the players in each position are quite high.

Needless to say, there are three defenders. The defensive ability of the left and right central defenders is very high, but the scavenger commander in the middle is the key. According to Bielsa, it is best to be a central defender with midfield attributes, such as Xavi Martinez, or Barcelona’s Mascherano and Pique, all follow this path.

But is there such a player in Inter Milan today?

The three-back tactic is usually a combination of three central defenders. The two wings are the weakness, so the requirements for the two full-backs are also very high. The offense must be able to advance and the defense must be able to retreat. This is not something that just any player can do.

So here comes the problem, when the full-backs cannot be guaranteed to be in place, they have to use the midfield to help defend.

In recent years, four-back tactics generally rarely require midfielders to help defend the wings, because many wings now tend to cut inside.

But in Italy, there are almost no decent wings, so the three backs play quite well. For example, Naples, Udinese and Juventus are all playing three backs.

But they all have a strong midfield for support.

The three midfielders generally adopt a fixed midfielder with one behind and two highly mobile frontcourt configurations, such as Juventus, but there are also teams that adopt different tactics according to their own player configuration. There are many changes, but without exception, the requirements for player ability are also high.

But even so, the three midfielders may not be able to ensure that the team's midfield can hold the situation, especially in case the full-back is dribbling the ball and is suddenly counterattacked by stealing the ball, the team's weakness will be exposed.

Therefore, this requires that there must be a good enough offensive lineup in the frontcourt that can suppress the opponent.

And in order to ensure the team's overall defense, the general three-back tactics require pressing and pressing in the midfield.

Looking at these items, almost none of Inter Milan is qualified.

There are no reliable defenders, no qualified full-backs, and a strong midfielder. After Icardi was injured, the frontcourt was only supported by Palacio.

Just ask, it's no wonder that such a set of three-back tactics can be played well!
Judging from this game, in the past few months, Mazari has organized the midfield press well, but the midfield is still weak, the offense is still weak, and the backcourt is still full of loopholes. This is mainly caused by the weak lineup of Inter Milan.

But he is also too stubborn!
More importantly, Yang Huan could see clearly that such a three-man defender could still play well in Serie A. In Europe, let alone the higher-level UEFA Champions League, even if they went to the Europa League, they were all unlucky characters who were taught how to behave every minute.

Look at the performance of the Serie A teams in the Champions League in recent years. Juventus could not get out of the group this season. Last season, the Celtics were too weak despite the knockout round of the sixteenth.

Not to mention Naples, Serie A has an eye-catching performance, but it is seriously lacking in competitiveness in the Champions League.

On the contrary, Allegri's AC Milan directly became the most eye-catching team of the Serie A team in the Champions League.

But looking at it again, Juventus and Naples both have three backs, while AC Milan has four backs.

Obviously, Allegri's tactical philosophy is more in line with the European mainstream than other Italian coaches.

Thinking of this, Yang Huan also felt very helpless. This Serie A league has really fallen.

Mazari is also doomed to be a transitional coach, and the real coach will have to be found again in the future!

But this time, either don't change, or change to a famous coach!
Therefore, Yang Huan is counting on Mazzarri to lay a solid foundation for Inter Milan, improve the team's discipline and team spirit, establish the authority of the coach, and let Inter Milan get on the right track and become a normal and qualified team.

Wait until the right time, and then change to a famous coach to achieve results!
Although doing so is somewhat unkind to Mazari, what can be done?
This is professional football!
