Lord of Greenery

Chapter 81 New Season

The season is about to start, and Cannes began to invite teams around for warm-up matches.

Unfortunately, Li Ze's prediction seems to have come true, the season is about to start and Cannes still has no signings.

Money is not the problem, not money is the problem.

In the first warm-up match, the opponent in Cannes was Borlegni.

Borlegni was also a French third team last season, and finally succeeded in advancing by virtue of his third place in French third.

Their performance was not as strong as Cannes and Clermont, and it was only in the last two rounds that they were able to defeat teams such as Seat and Laval, and successfully determined a promotion spot.

Against such a team, it stands to reason that Cannes should be able to win, but this is not the case.

As soon as they played, they knew that there were a few new faces on Borlegni's side, and they were new players in the summer.

Obviously, these players were recruited for the purpose of playing in France B.

Compared with Cannes without any signings, Borlegni's strength has undoubtedly increased a lot.

In the end, the score of this game was 1:1.

For the Cannes side, Traore assisted Li Ze to score 1 goal, and Borlegni equalized the score in the second half.

Dusuye is not very satisfied with the team's performance, after all, last season they stabilized Borregni in the standings.

However, Du Suye couldn't express his dissatisfaction with the players. After all, comparing the signings of the two sides, it is better to say that Cannes can win a draw. The players have worked very hard.

In the second match of the warm-up match, Cannes even invited the Ligue [-] team Marseille!

Li Ze took a closer look and found that there are many familiar people in this team.

For example, Nasri, one of the Four Gentlemen in North London, was kicked by Zheng Zhi into Zheng Zhihua's Cisse, and Cenden, who wandered through three wealthy families.

Although Nasri has not become famous yet, Cisse and Zenden have also stayed away from the top league, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Cannes finally lost 1:5.

Losing is expected. After all, although Marseille does not have the demeanor of the Ligue [-] hegemony more than a decade ago, it is now one of the strong teams in Ligue [-].

Marseille ranked second in Ligue 64 with [-] points last season, second only to Lyon.

The latter scored 81 points, 2 points higher than No.17, showing its unparalleled dominance in Ligue [-].

When it came to Marseille, Cannes naturally didn't think about winning. Just like Hua Guo always likes to find some strong European teams to abuse his team, just to let the players get familiar with the opponent's rhythm, the Cannes management also thinks the same.

The only goal in Cannes was scored by Li Ze one-stop, showing his personal ability higher than that of Ligue [-].

After the game, Cisse took the initiative to find him and asked him to change his jersey.

"Thank you." Li Ze looked at him in surprise, "I didn't expect you to ask me to change it."

Li Ze really didn't expect it.

Cisse's strength is very strong. He won the Ligue [-] Golden Boot twice in Auxerre before and was introduced by Liverpool as Owen's replacement.

But because Ligue 06 has little influence, he didn't achieve much in Liverpool. The biggest impression of Hua Guo fans on him is that he was kicked by Zheng Zhi and broke his leg, which prevented him from participating in the [-] World Cup.

Considering that it is rare to see Chinese people in European football, Li Ze thought that the other party would be prejudiced against him.

"You mean Zheng?" Cisse obviously understood what he was thinking, and took Li Ze's jersey with a smile, "I know he didn't do it on purpose."

After hearing this, Li Ze had a good impression of him, and took his jersey with a smile.

"Are you interested in coming to Marseille?" Cisse asked suddenly.

Next to him, Catron, who was about to walk towards the player tunnel, paused, then continued walking.

He is also a veteran, and he knows that he should not intervene in such matters.

But in his heart, he still couldn't help worrying about the future of Cannes.

"I don't have that idea yet." Li Ze replied truthfully, "Now the team needs me."

Upon hearing this, Cisse turned his head and glanced at the Cannes players, then patted Li Ze on the shoulder.

"Don't stay here forever."

What he meant was obvious.

"Good players shouldn't stay in Ligue [-]."

"I will." Li Ze followed his gaze and looked over.

He knows that he can't stay for long, and the time to play in Cannes is getting less and less.

In the third game of the warm-up match, Cannes turned out to be a Ligue [-] team more and more.

What surprised Li Ze even more was that they were more and more Nice!
It was Li Ze's rebirth, the first team he went to.

What makes Li Ze more embarrassed is that the other party doesn't seem to remember that he went to the trial training at all, and no one came here to say anything to him.

No one seems to know him...

At that time, he, to be precise, the group of people they tried out, really didn't have any sense of existence...

There are fewer people who are familiar to Li Ze in Nice, and the goalkeeper who is most familiar to Li Ze is Nice.

If you read correctly, he should be France's main goalkeeper Lloris in the future.

However, that was ten years later.

What Li Ze did not expect was that ten years ago, Lloris was already the starting goalkeeper of a Ligue [-] team like Nice.

You know, the professional life of goalkeepers is longer than that of ordinary players. The representative figures are Zoff and teenager Buffon of Italy.

But because of this, many teams like to use more experienced goalkeepers, and there are also many goalkeepers who are late bloomers. The representative is Van der Sar of Manchester United.

And there can only be one starting goalkeeper on the field. Generally speaking, it is common for young goalkeepers to sit on the bench for several years.

How old is Lloris? Is this already the team's starter?
Li Ze secretly admired in his heart.

It is worthy of being the main goalkeeper of France in the future.

Cannes also lost this warm-up match, losing 1:3.

The only goal in Cannes this time was scored by Li Ze assisting Angulo.

Like the previous game against Marseille, Cannes didn't have many chances to counterattack. Li Ze and Angulo caught one, and their performance was enough to be praised.

However, Li Ze will not be happy about this——

For one thing, even if he performed well in the warm-up match, he would not be given ability points.

Secondly, no matter how good he performed, didn't he still lose in the end?
What is there to brag about when you lose a game.

The warm-up match has not won three consecutive games, which made the morale of the Cannes players a little low.

Dusuye, aware of this, approached the management and asked for a French third team to play the warm-up match.

This time Cannes finally won, or 3:0.

Li Ze passed and shot, Traore scored a goal, Anthony scored a goal, Cannes won without much pressure.

Cannes, which won a game, can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Cannes fans are also concerned about the team's performance in the warm-up match.

As for the result, it is naturally very worrying for them.

Although the two lost games were lost to Ligue [-] teams, Cannes was too irresistible to lose.

The only thing that makes the fans happy is that the core of the team, Li Ze, performed very well. His performance in the four warm-up matches was the best of the Cannes team.

Li Ze is in excellent form, there is hope for relegation in Cannes!
Li Ze himself was quite dissatisfied, and always felt that he could perform better!
At this time, because of the award at the end of last season, he has a lot of ability points, and now has 339 points.

But after thinking about it, Li Ze didn't use it right away.

Now his ability is enough to cope with the Ligue [-] competition, and it does not make much sense to strengthen it.

If possible, he hopes to save these ability points.

In the top league, he will be more aware of what abilities he needs to develop.

With his ability, it is enough to cope with the current game, and there is little point in increasing it.

In this way, Li Ze's first French second game came...
