Mister Legend

Chapter 250 Satellites and Spectators

Of course, two of these four teenagers are of non-European nationality. According to the "hukou book" system of Serie A, it is difficult for the Turin team to introduce these two players at the same time within a year, because it is impossible for them to buy two players from overseas each year. All the valuable places for players are betting on young people, and there is still a special requirement for one of them.Therefore, this requires the club to adopt other methods and take a roundabout route.

Satellite teams, in addition to renting out players for the purpose of training, are also the most commonly used method for European teams to deal with the trouble of "hukou book" when introducing foreign aid.When Manchester United introduced Chinese player Dong Fangzhuo, because the latter was not eligible to apply for a British labor certificate, he was loaned to the club's satellite team Antwerp in Belgium so that he could make up for the national team in the next two or three years. Number of appearances.

And this kind of usage is only the most basic. The advanced one is to loan those players with non-EU nationality to those countries with a shorter period of permanent residence status to play for a period of time, so that they can reasonably obtain EU nationality.For example, the two most famous countries are Spain (theoretically naturalization only takes two years) and Belgium (requires three consecutive years of playing).

In addition, there is a faster method, using the attribution system brought about by the former colonial relationship between some countries, as long as the immediate family members of the players can be found to have a close intersection with the original European clan country, they can apply for the second nationality.For example, Italy and Spain correspond to Argentina, Portugal corresponds to Brazil, and France corresponds to some African countries, etc. Players from this non-EU country can easily obtain the corresponding second nationality.And this kind of relationship has also given some lawbreakers room for illegal operations. The "false passport case" that shocked the world football around 2000 involved hundreds of players, agents and club officials. Veron and the former Lazio president Craniotti is the two biggest names among them.Although the matter ended in nothing, the Argentine midfielder who was in full swing at the time had to be forced to transfer to Manchester United, which led to the sinking of a superstar.

Compared with Britain and Spain, which have very strict restrictions on non-EU players, the Italian Football Association's policy of introducing non-EU players from within the country without occupying the annual quota for purchasing overseas players has become a shortcut for the rich. good way.For example, if Juventus wants to introduce a South American player without a registered permanent residence, but he has no quota, he can ask his satellite team to help him buy it, and then put it in his lineup after a year or even half a year.

In order to limit this possible loophole, the Italian Football Association has imposed restrictions on the two overseas recruitment quotas each year, one of which has no restrictions, and the other must have a non-European player in the team leave the team or transfer to another country after the contract expires. It can only be activated outside of Italy.In other words, if the club sells a non-European player to its own team, then he will only have one quota left each year and cannot activate the second one.However, there are quite a few places for each club. If you get a few more satellite clubs, you can still complete multiple transactions at one time.

Li Mudi just wanted to use this loophole to make a fuss, but this required the selected satellite club to have a very close relationship with Turin, and there would be no mistakes that would lead to making wedding dresses for others.However, several Italian clubs currently in partnership with the Red Bulls, such as Vercelli and other teams, cannot completely reassure the Turin executives, so the job of finding a new satellite team that is very familiar to Football Manager players will be It will be launched within the next month. Chairman Urbano Cairo and others hope to reach a cooperation agreement with a Serie B or Serie C team that is close to a sub-team to facilitate future signings, but The team coach thinks that they are all wishful thinking, and the result is difficult to satisfy these club executives.

Regardless of whether any team will be willing to become an absolute subsidiary of other clubs, it is difficult to bypass the relevant provisions of the Football Association and UEFA alone.The Italian Football Association has always been extremely heavy-handed in avoiding tacit understanding and even match-fixing. In principle, the two teams are not allowed to form allies. If the cooperative relationship within the rules in the transfer market can be tolerated , then it is absolutely impossible for a club to completely obey the practice of another.And UEFA has a clear conflict of interest clause, that is, two European clubs with conflicting interests are not allowed to participate in UEFA's competitions such as the Champions League and Europa League at the same time. huge controversy.

Since Abramovich has a close personal relationship with the rich Georgian businessman Merab Jordania, the owner of the Eredivisie Vitesse Club (that is, the team played by Chinese forward Zhang Yuning), in the many seasons from 2010 to the present, Blue The Chinese Army loaned nearly 30 players under its banner to the Witsey Club, making the latter their "second team" and training ground.According to gossip, in the 2013-14 season, in order to prevent the opponent from qualifying for the Champions League and violating UEFA regulations, Chelsea once advised the rare Vitese team not to compete for the Eredivisie championship.As soon as the matter was disclosed by the media, it immediately caused an uproar in the Netherlands. The Dutch Football Association strongly announced the launch of an investigation, but fortunately no more trouble was caused in the end.

However, it can be seen from this incident that the European football community attaches great importance to the complete control of another club by one club, so the plan of the Turin high-level executives is destined to be impossible to achieve.The Turin coach who didn't have the mind to follow them around fooling around, came directly out of sight, out of mind, and concentrated his energy on the team training the next day and the World Cup European qualifiers in the evening.

Due to the lack of many players who are currently fighting for the country, and there are still nine days left for the next round of the league match against Udinese at home, so Li Moody did not bring too much tension to everyone during the two days of training On the contrary, some good seedlings in the youth team were also transferred to the first team.The team held a small five-a-side game every afternoon, which made the players look for the reduced competitive state due to the vacation with a very relaxed mood. The U20 boys also got the chance to play against the official players and It can be said that everyone is happy to have the opportunity to ask for advice.

However, after the training session was over, Li Mudi had just returned to the apartment to eat takeaway food. While waiting for the live broadcast of the game in the evening, he was shocked by the many reports about the team's goalkeeper Joe Hart on the Internet. I contacted Guinez, who was in Spain, and found out what was going on.

It turned out that the "Sunderland Echo" published an article two days ago, expressing criticism to the Three Lions coach Southgate for not recruiting Jordan Pickford, the main goalkeeper of the Black Cats who has played extremely well this season. Questioned, the reporter of the newspaper believes that this young man who has just turned 23 years old is the best goalkeeper in the whole of England, and he should replace the man who made constant mistakes in Turin as the starting line-up of the national team.But who would have thought that such a report complaining about the players of his local team would cause such a big commotion, and many famous celebrities jumped out to support or criticize Joe Hart, making the topic of the topic soaring in an instant It has reached the level of explosion.

Former England goalkeeper David James suggested that Hart could consider joining Juventus to succeed Buffon after refuting the article in the "Sunderland Echo".He said: "If I were Hart, I would pay attention to Juventus. The difficulty for him to return to the Premier League is, which team can he join? Now the Premier League teams have some very good goalkeepers. Look at the England squad, he's the only one playing abroad but he's been doing really well. Playing in Turin isn't easy for a lot of people, but Hart's been great Good. So he has shown he has what it takes to play abroad, so why not join a top team in Turin?"

The main force of the "anti-Joe faction" is former Arsenal's German goalkeeper Lehmann. This old goalkeeper who has been suppressed by Kahn in his career said in an interview recently that he thinks Hart is not a world-class goalkeeper.The original words were: "England has always had good players, but they have always lacked a world-class goalkeeper. I have seen Hart perform well in some games, but I have also seen him make mistakes. When I watch him so After years of playing, he keeps making the same mistakes. He hasn't improved his weaknesses. Maybe it's time to try a new option. Pickford has played well this year, and the Englishman should be bolder."

After seeing these comments, Li Moody has been unable to complain about the mystery of the Turin goalkeeper in European football recently. I really don’t understand why the question of a player’s future has aroused so many people’s interest. , can't you do something more meaningful when you have that time?After such a toss, it would be a ghost if Joe Hart's condition improved after returning to the club. The Turin club and himself suffered [-] points of damage for nothing!

After he scolded those fed up and idle guys, the three matchups in the fifth round of Group G happened at the same time. The Turin coach chose to watch Italy's home game against Albania on TV and computer at the same time. , and Spain's two home games against Israel.Among them, he is most concerned about the previous game. In the game at the Barbera Stadium, Palermo's home stadium in Sicily, the old coach Ventura still retained the main team that beat Liechtenstein with four goals in the last round of away games. Turin Zampacosta and Belotti both qualified for their second straight start.

What deserves a special mention is that this game is also the [-]th official game of Juventus legendary goalkeeper Buffon in his career. Li Mudi, who just learned about this situation from TV, hastily took out his mobile phone and posted on the Internet. A message of congratulations was released to express respect for the other party.

And Hong Beibei, who has been in the leading position in the Serie A scorer list this season, did not disappoint his mentor. In the 10th minute, when he responded to Candreva's set-piece in the middle of the front court, he scrambled in the penalty area. Bashara, who played for Serie B Bari, fell to the ground during the point. The referee immediately awarded a penalty kick, and Roma vice-captain De Rossi took the lead overnight.

However, in the following games, the Azzurri, who firmly held the advantage on the field, failed to find the opponent's loopholes again. Belotti failed to cause trouble for the visiting team's goalkeeper with two consecutive overhead kicks. Lai also failed to show his power in the league under the marking of the opponent's defender. In the end, the score of 1-0 was maintained until the intermission.

On the other hand, the matadors who played at the Gran Moulin Stadium, the home stadium of Sporting Gijon, fully grasped the initiative of the game. With the ball possession rate as high as 63%, David Silva and Serbia Villa's winger Vitolo scored twice to move firmly towards the three points at 2-0.

After the re-kick-off, Belotti suddenly lost himself and was basically invisible in the attack. When the Turin coach guessed whether Ventura would replace him soon, the field But an accident happened. In 7 minutes, the smoke sticks lit by many Albanian fans in the stands produced a lot of smoke, which made the visibility in the stadium very bad. The referee on duty had to suspend the game for a full 9 minutes. Only then can it continue.

Afterwards, the situation was still stronger for the home team. The two wingers Insigne and Candreva were heavily pressed in the offense, almost turning the team's formation into a 4-2-4.However, the visiting team ranked fourth in the world is not a powerless underdog like Liechtenstein. Their defense is still very good. At one time, it completely blocked Italy's central offensive line, making the latter only pass from the side. to find opportunities.

However, the gap in strength between the two sides was still reflected in the second half of the game. No. 70 minutes, Insigne's free kick before the arc top of the penalty area was blocked by a wall, and Zapacosta sent an arc from the right. In the line pass, Immobile succeeded in a header from the back point at a small angle, and Italy finally got the insurance two-goal advantage.However, the Albanian player angrily complained to the referee that Belotti, who was in an offside position, also made a scramble, which interfered with the goalkeeper's judgment. The ball should be invalid, but he did not get support.

After that, there were no exciting shots. Both sides, who played very averagely, failed to create any decent offensive again. The score of 2-0 was maintained until the end of the game. Buffon completed his goal with a perfect clean sheet. Thousand milestones.However, Ventura did not replace a player, which caused a lot of controversy after the game. The old fox's thinking is indeed very different from ordinary people, and Li Moody can't pinpoint his pulse.

In another game, Spain finally beat Israel 4-1. Diego Costa and Isco scored in the second half respectively. They still share [-] points with Italy and lead the group.
