Lord of Greenery

Chapter 7 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The ceremony of joining the team was very simple. The head coach Du Suye explained it before everyone, and asked everyone to applaud and welcome him. Li Ze joined the team just like that.

Of course, joining and integrating are two completely different things.

Since then, the head coach has not rushed to invite everyone to a training game, but has assigned different training tasks, and Li Ze also has one.

Not only the training plan, Li Ze also has another list.

Li Ze flipped through, it was a list of players in the team.

It records the characteristics and past experiences of my teammates.

One of his teammates has a resume that is quite conspicuous.

Patrice Catron, a 36-year-old French central defender, only came to Cannes in the summer of 05.

In his career, he played in Ligue [-] for eight seasons, and this resume is enough to prove his strength!
It can only be said that it really deserves to be Cannes. Even if it is reduced to France C, it still has a strong foundation.

However, Li Ze didn't quite understand why the coaching staff gave him such a list.

Is it to get to know teammates and increase teamwork?
Although he didn't understand it very well, after a day of training, Li Ze went back and studied the list carefully.

Any football game must collect a database of players.

As for the game that Li Ze is involved in, the player database is obviously not lacking.

Li Ze collected the data for a while, and soon collected the data of his teammates.

It is worth mentioning that he came here in 2018, and it is only 2006 now.

Therefore, he can collect the future trajectories of his teammates in the game.

And this investigation really shocked him——

Front midfielder Fouad Kadir, Algerian, later he was a player in the top five leagues and played for Marseille and Real Betis.

Striker Brice Jovial, a Frenchman, once led the French team Dijon to Ligue [-].

It is worth mentioning that he later went to Huaguo to play for Jincheng and was loved by fans.

It has to be said that the background of Cannes is still there. Even if it is relegated to Ligue [-], it can still train players who can play in the five major leagues.

This kind of training ability is even better than the entire Huaguo football.

If nothing else, just Bliss Jovial.

In the future, he scored 19 goals in a single season in the French second, which surpassed Xie Hui's 14 goals in the German second.

After coming to Ligue 9, he scored another 8 goals in a single season, which surpassed Yang Chen's [-] goals in the Bundesliga.

Yes, it is such a player who is completely unknown in the five major leagues, but his achievements can be compared with the best results of Chinese players in the five major leagues!

So, what is Bliss Jovial's status in the five major leagues?

Basically, it can be said that there is no status.

Ligue [-] is just the last of the five major leagues. Is it worth remembering a striker who scored goals in a single season in this league?
It can be seen from his later reduction to playing in Huaguo. At that time, he was not playing in the Huachao, but in the second-tier league.

Even such a player, if measured by the standards of Huaguo players, is still the best level.

This is also the reason why Li Ze is unwilling to play football in Huaguo. This is not a question of patriotism, but Huaguo is really a football desert.

Not only the players, but also the head coach of the team cannot be said to be unknown.

Michel Dusuyer, who was born in 59, was not well-known in France, but in the future he became the head coach of the two national teams of Guinea and Côte d'Ivoire.

The circle of Hua Guo's head coaches is probably worse than the circle of Hua Guo's players.

After all, the biggest achievement of this circle is to coach the Huaguo national team.

Is there even one Huaguo coach who went to other countries' leagues or even coached other national teams?

When Li Ze found out the information, he couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed.

Europeans say that Huaguo is a football desert, which is really not an exaggeration at all.

While sighing, Li Ze also felt very happy. Looking at the future career trajectories of these players, the teachings of Cannes are still very useful.

However, Li Ze has no way to know their style based on these materials alone.

But at least after finding out the information, Li Ze's fighting spirit became even higher.

In order to better integrate into the locker room, Li Ze memorized the names of these future teammates.

It seems that the Cannes coaching staff also had the same idea, and couldn't help but write down some of their characteristics, as well as some of their habits and taboos.

With these materials, Li Ze can better integrate into the team.

With no slack in training, after the third day of training, Li Ze took the initiative to treat guests and invite his teammates.

Not everyone gave him face, rather, only a few people came over.

Among them, the team's core players only came to Jovial and Catron, and the rest were rotations, and two young players who had just been transferred from the youth training team.

It is worth mentioning that the 06 World Cup is not over yet.

The last game of this World Cup will end on July 7, and the team will start training on July 9.

Looking at the familiar figure on TV, Li Ze sighed slightly.

What is going on now is the match between Italy and Germany.

"Italy must win." Li Ze said firmly.

"Germany is not that easy to deal with." Jacques Salzer said.

He is a central defender from the Cannes youth training and a talented player who is now under the spotlight. He is only 18 years old this year.

France and Germany are very close geographically, and there is inevitably animosity between them.

But the enmity belongs to the enmity, and the geographical location is close, which means that both parties will know each other very well.

"Although Germany doesn't have any superstars, the team's execution is the best in the world"

In the 02 World Cup, Germany also did not have many superstars, but it won the runner-up in the end, which is the best proof.

"There was Kahn in 02, now only Ballack is left." Li Ze shook his head, "In such a game, the performance of a superstar is essential."

"That kind of thing happened in Italy, so it's unlikely to win against Germany, right?" Steven Paule also retorted.

He also came from the youth training in Cannes and is also a central defender, only one year older than Jacques.

Two defenders kicked up from the youth training show that the head coach is dissatisfied with the team's defense.

And the "that kind of thing" he said refers to the "phone gate" that happened in Serie A this season.

The sacred alliance headed by Juventus and AC Milan can even manipulate referees in Serie A to affect the championship.

Once such a scandal is exposed, not only Serie A clubs will be affected, but those superstars who play in Serie A will naturally be affected as well.

It can be said that almost all the players of the entire Italian team play in Serie A.

There are quite a few of them playing in the two giants.

"Because of the telephone door, they are all holding their breath." Li Ze said.

Rather, the German side really has no advantage.

As a head coach, Klinsmann is not as experienced as Lippi; in terms of the number of players, Italy has superstars on all three lines, while Germany only has Ballack; in terms of morale, Italian players are eager to prove themselves, while Germans are not low in morale. It's also not expensive.

"I dare not say how many goals Italy will win, but they will definitely have a clean sheet against Germany."

Li Ze said solemnly.

He knows how strong the Italian defense is this year.
