Lord of Greenery

Chapter 80 Training
When the Asian Cup was in full swing, Li Ze quietly returned to Cannes.

The new season of Ligue [-] is coming, it's time to start training.

After looking around carefully, Li Ze found that his teammates were neither short nor many, which made him a little worried.

He doesn't know the specific level of Ligue [-], but he at least knows that the level of Ligue [-] is definitely not low.

Among other things, Clermont, who fought against them in France [-] to the end, is the relegation team of France [-].

What does downgrade mean?
Relegation means that last season, Clermont was the bottom three in Ligue [-]!

Claremont's strength is at this level, so what about Cannes?
Definitely not strong enough to go there!

If the team has no signings at all, even relegation is a problem!
What Li Ze didn't know was that when he was worried about the team, others were also worried about him.

"Worried about me?" Li Ze didn't know why.

"I'm worried about you leaving." Jacques said unabashedly, "You performed so well last season, everyone said you are going to Ligue [-]."

"If Lyon and Paris want to introduce me, it's not impossible~" Li Ze joked.

"I can understand if you go to Lyon, why does Paris want you to go too?" Jacques' focus was a bit strange.

"Isn't Paris a wealthy family?" Li Ze asked back.

"That was in the past." Jacques shook his head again and again, "Paris ranked 15th in the league last season, and now they are fighting for relegation."

"Relegation?" Li Ze couldn't imagine.

In his impression, the impression of Paris in the future is local tyrants, Ligue [-] hegemony, European giants, the reversal of the Champions League and so on.

During that time, Paris had many outstanding stars, including Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Verratti, Thiago Silva, Lucas Jr., and "[-] million reckless" Neymar and Mbappe.

Even if the oil tycoons haven't come yet, just because Paris is the capital of France, they shouldn't work hard for relegation.

"I remember Pauletta is in Paris now, right?" Li Ze asked.

Pauleta used to be the starting center of the Portuguese team. Before Ronaldo, he was the top scorer in Portugal's history, ranking even above Eusebio!
The reason why his reputation is not obvious is because he has no achievements in the club and has no outstanding performance in the national team.

Although he is the top scorer in history, the data is 88 goals in 47 games, and the scoring rate is more than half.

But most of his goals were scored against underdogs. Although Pauleta did not fail to perform brilliantly against strong teams, he was invisible most of the time.

What is puzzling is that he, who was born in Ligue [-], should have experienced all kinds of black and hard torture, but his performance in the national team was not tough.

However, despite his lack of performance in the national team, although Pauleta has not led the team to win any decent championships at the club, his performance has always been recognized.

After Ronaldinho left, Paris introduced him as the core of the team.

Such a player, at least in the relatively weak Ligue [-], should still be dominant.

"Pauletta is here, and Paris is relegation?" Li Ze felt incredible.

"Without Pauletta, we can play Paris this season!" Jacques pouted, "And with you here, we are not sure who will win."

"...you have swollen to the point where you want to play in Ligue [-]?" Li Ze stared at him dumbfounded.

"Isn't there you here?" Jacques replied without thinking.

"..." Li Ze didn't know what to say, he just wanted Jacques, who could talk, to say more.

In fact, some Ligue [-] teams really approached Li Ze, but Li Ze thought about it and still did not agree.

First, the level of Ligue [-] teams is slightly inferior compared to the other five major leagues;
Secondly, the Ligue [-] team that came to him did not have that kind of giants;

In the end, these teams came to him, asking for a longer contract period and higher liquidated damages.

Li Ze didn't want to stay in France for too long.

After all, although France is a good place to train players, in order to achieve results, they still have to go to several other leagues.

Before Li Ze's rebirth, there were 18 Champions Leagues in La Liga, 13 in the Premier League, 12 in Serie A, and 7 in the Bundesliga. How many of the five major leagues are there in Ligue [-]?
1 Champions League, only 1 Champions League!That was Marseille in the 92/93 season.

That's right, neither the current Ligue [-] overlord Lyon nor the future Ligue [-] overlord Paris Saint-Germain have ever won the Champions League.

Let alone champions, they haven't even made it to the finals!

The competitiveness of Ligue [-] is so small that it is not even worthy of being called the top five leagues.

If it weren't for the emergence of the Bosman Act, the Eredivisie is definitely more qualified to be called the top five leagues than Ligue 6. They have won [-] Champions Leagues.

It can be said that ambitious players will not stay in Ligue [-] for too long. Now the most famous player in Ligue [-] is nothing more than Lyon's core Juninho.

But what the Brazilian is remembered for is his elusive free kick. Many people don't know that his level as a midfielder is actually quite superb.

Unfortunately, dragged down by the overall weakness of Ligue [-], whether Junior Juninho is even qualified to be called a superstar is a question mark.

Later, after Ibrahimovic and Neymar came to Ligue [-], the situation did change, but there were still no results.

Ibrahimovic leads Paris to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and Neymar Gambappe stops at the quarter-finals year after year!

Apart from them, there are no other teams in Ligue [-] with cards.

In any case, whether it is the current Lyon or the future Paris Saint-Germain, they still have a relatively stable performance in the Champions League.

Li Ze remembers very clearly that Lyon lost its dominance in the next few years, and Ligue [-] began to have teams as champions in turn, but those teams did not have any impressive performances in the Champions League.

Among other things, how many people remember the teams that won the championship in the gap between the two overlords?
Even Didier Deschamps' Marseille and Hazard's Lille failed to show any decent performances.

The best performers in the future are Lyon in the 09-10 season and Monaco in the 16-17 season.

In Ligue [-], there is really no need to stay for a long time.

Seeing Li Ze's resolute attitude, Jacques was obviously very happy, and that kind of happiness was hardly concealed.

"Don't be too happy." Li Ze couldn't help but said, "If this goes on, even if I want to stay, they will sell me out."

"How could they sell you?"

"Look at this posture, don't we all have no money to sign in?" Li Ze asked back.

Jacques was silent.

He knew very well that Li Ze was the only valuable one among them.
