Mister Legend

Chapter 304 Formal Assembly
Last season, Real Madrid achieved an impressive record. They overwhelmed their old rival Barcelona in the league and won their first championship in the past five years. They are also the No.30 three La Liga titles in team history.In the UEFA Champions League, they made great strides all the way, and finally defeated their nemesis Juventus in the final. Not only did they win the Big Ear Cup for the third time in the past four years, but they also became the first team to successfully defend the UEFA Champions League since the restructuring of the UEFA Champions League. .The title of No.12 European overlord in the history of the club makes the Galaxy Battleship continue to be in the leading position in the selection of the best European club in the 21st century.

But just as the team is making persistent efforts to win more honors in the new season, the club and head coach Zidane have successively received applications from Morata and Ronaldo, two indispensable generals on the bench, to leave the team , In addition, the central defender Pepe also switched to Besiktas in Turkey because he failed to reach a contract extension (Li Mudi once hoped to get this experienced veteran, but unfortunately he could not meet the opponent's requirements in terms of annual salary, as long as he regrets missing ), the strength of the team is greatly reduced.In addition, Coentrao and Danilo should not stay in the team anymore, and cleaning has become one of the key words of the team this summer.

If it is put in previous years, this is naturally not a big deal. A giant like Real Madrid will experience personnel turnover every year, and someone will come when someone leaves.But Lafayette doesn't know which tendon is wrong. The names of Hazard and De Gea seem to be no longer on his list. It will take a few days since he took out 4500 million euros to book in May. The 17-year-old Brazilian teenager Vinicius Junior, the chairman of Real Madrid, fell into a fascination with young players and couldn't extricate himself.After signing Real Betis midfielder Danny Ceballos, who was born in 1500, for 1996 million euros, he spent 3000 million euros to poach French left-back Theo Hernan from rivals Atletico Madrid in the same city. Des (also translated as Theo), caused a lot of trouble.

After recovering Mbappé, Jesse, Vallejo, Marcos Llorente, Borja Mayoral and Mele, who were loaned out last season, the Castilla team Moroccan right-back Ashraf Hakimi was promoted to the first team, reducing the average age of Real Madrid's lineup by as much as four years, making the Champions League champion full of youthfulness.

But these young players, except for Asensio, Mbappe and Jesse who performed well in their respective teams last season, the rest have not proved their strength in the top league teams and can help Real Madrid For a championship team of this level, it will take time to test how much they can display in the face of a strong enemy.Judging from the current situation alone, Qi Zu is not very optimistic that they can perfectly replace world-class stars such as Morata and Ronaldo.

But fortunately, the potential of this group of boys who have just turned 21 is visible to everyone. As long as they can pass the test of this season and play at the level that the outside world believes they can achieve, Real Madrid will be able to play in the next ten years. It will firmly occupy the position of the world's top team, and the establishment of a dynasty is just around the corner.

Facing his friend’s behavior of pretending to complain, the Turin coach naturally sneered, and he responded: “Stop embarrassing yourself in front of me, if these players can come to the Torino team, I guess it will be a dream at night. Wake up laughing, thinking about these names is exciting! For the young talents of Mbappe and Asensio, I can give up all the people in the current team, you say, who can you fancy, we two Let's make an exchange immediately." Qi Zu's seemingly honest but actually cunning smile greeted him.

After chatting for a whole afternoon and fully discussing the use and training of young players, the two good friends agreed to compete in this year's Bernabéu Cup in Madrid on August 8th to see if Who can become the final winner in the first confrontation between the two sides.

In the evening of the same day, Li Moody, together with Zheng Xiaoyang and Fausto Salzano, flew back to Turin City. After a day of settlement, the team finally ushered in the day of reporting.

On the evening of the 4th, the Serie A schedule for the 2017-18 season has been announced by the Italian Football Association on its official website. The first round of the league will officially start at 8:19 local time on August 17. The opening game will be played by the defending champion Juventus at home. against Cagliari.The first opponent of the Red Bulls is Bologna, and Li Moody will lead his team to an away game to challenge Donadoni's team.

Generally speaking, the Turin team's game schedule presents a situation where the easier is first and the harder is later. Except for the away game in the sixth round of the derby, their opponents in the first eight league games are not strong.However, starting from the No.14 round, the Red Bulls have to face AC Milan, Atlanta, Lazio and Naples for four consecutive weekends. If you are not careful, you will fall into a very unfavorable situation. It is a severe test.

Along with the league schedule, there is also a schedule for the Coppa Italia. The first round of matches will be played within three days from July 7 to 28.Since the Turin team won the fourth place in Serie A last season, they got the status of the seed team and directly entered the top sixteen.Taking into account the distribution of matches in the draw, they are likely to encounter their No. 30 rival Sampdoria in the quarter-finals.

As for the Europa League, the third event that the Red Bulls will participate in, the first round of qualifying matches will happen to be the second round of confrontation in these two days, and the third and final round of play-offs will be completed on August 8. .The draw ceremony for the group stage has been determined to be held at the Grimaldi Convention Center in Monte Carlo at 24:25 pm local time on the 9th in Monaco. The first round of matches will be scheduled for Thursday, September 14th, which happens to be Serie A In the middle of the third and fourth rounds.

After getting the general game schedule for the first two months of the new season, the scouting team in Turin began to make targeted work arrangements. After adding two new scouts, the club finally eased some scouting capabilities The lack of embarrassment, we can send special personnel to collect information on a certain club at a fixed point, which is of great benefit to the team's preparations.

Closer to home, at 5:09 am on the 30th, the staff who arrived at the club office building before the players arrived in the conference room on time, ready to start the first collective communication of the new season.Leaving aside other departments, this summer, the members of the coaching staff have undergone a lot of changes. In addition to Salsano replacing Frank De Boer as the offensive coach and Zheng Xiaoyang joining, the Turin coach has been applying to the high-level appeal It was finally approved, and the joining of the three new coaches enabled the team to have two staff members in the five major categories of offense, defense, technology, physical fitness and goalkeeper.This will greatly reduce everyone's workload, and at the same time help to refine the work, and it will also have a great effect on improving the players' abilities.

Philippe Lambert (Philippe Lambert), the team's new fitness coach, French, born in 1962, served as the head coach of the Ligue 1997 Lille reserve team in the 98-1998 season, and found that he was not enough, just like Salzano After being qualified for this job, he changed his job and became a professional physical coach.Since [-], he has worked for three teams: Lille, the French national team and Paris Saint-Germain. Last summer, with the end of the contract of his old partner Blanco, Lambert also lost his job. After a whole year of rest, finally found a new contract in Italy.

Paul McGuinness), the team's new defensive coach, an Englishman born in 1966, who came from Manchester United's youth training, but only played 20 times in official senior team games during his ten-year player career. Be regarded as a very amateur professional player. Began to coach Manchester United U1988 team in 18. The 92 golden generation to which Beckham and Scholes belonged once received his advice. He was promoted to U2006 head coach in 18 until Mourinho took over last summer. Old Trafford, the direct descendant of the Red Devils had to leave his home.McGuinnis is very good at training players' defensive and technical abilities. Through the introduction of Scholes, he got the opportunity to join the Turin coaching staff.

The last newcomer is an old face that everyone is very familiar with. Through the tireless invitation of Li Mudi and Valentino Cairo, the Italian goalkeeper Gianluca Pagliuca (Gianluca Pagliuca) finally agreed to take over Turin First team goalkeeper coach position.The main goalkeeper of the Italian team in the two World Cups in 94 and 98 was an iconic figure in Italian football in the 90s of the last century. In the middle of the year, it can still be ranked among the top teams in the world.After that, after Buffon and Toldo grew up, they quietly retreated behind them and continued to shine in the league.

On February 2007, 2, this handsome old goalkeeper, who has always been loved by fans, completed the last official game of his professional player career at the age of 18 years and 40 days, and then announced his retirement at the end of the season .And his total of 62 Serie A appearances also surpassed the legendary Dino Zoff, becoming the goalkeeper with the most appearances in Italy's top league until being surpassed by the greater Buffon last season.

In the summer of 2014, Pagliuca was invited to return to his home team Bologna and became the goalkeeper coach of the U20 team. During the past three years, he has been committed to cultivating new talented goalkeepers.It's a pity that due to the club's weak strength and luck, only Federico Lavaglia, who played for the Italian U15 team, was barely able to be promoted to the first team, and failed to dig out more and better seedlings.In Turin's youth training camp, there are not only Andrea Zaccanio, the current main goalkeeper of the Italian U20 team, but also Dominique Coppola, who has already made his mark in the U18 team. Savage, can be said to be a gathering of geniuses.It is precisely because of the existence of these young rookies that Li Mudi and others have the opportunity to invite Pagliuca to become the last piece of the puzzle of the coaching staff.

Since I have been in touch with each other through emails and phone calls before, although some of the people in the group are meeting for the first time, they are not too unfamiliar with each other.After simply agreeing on the training program for the first phase, everyone set off to the training ground together. The players have already changed into training clothes in the locker room one after another and started doing warm-up activities.

Although the stipulated time hadn't arrived yet, when the staff headed by Li Mudi came to the edge of the field, all the people who should be there at this moment had already appeared here.There are no big-name players, and there are no reckless and ignorant recruits. Everything is so beautiful.

After Moretti, who took over as the first captain after Vives left last winter, ordered the players to stand in a row, the team boss briefly introduced the newly promoted staff, and then turned his attention to the first-day players. The faces of the new players who came to this training ground were called in turn and asked them to introduce themselves.

The first one to stand up was the veteran Iker Casillas, the legendary goalkeeper with the most honors in the team and the highest historical status. He expressed his joy of joining the Red Bulls and his ambition to perform well in the new season.With him proofing, Savage, Goldaniga, Diego Llorente, Canneman and DiMarco and others behind him also made short speeches, showing their faces in front of their new teammates. .However, several of them do not speak Italian yet, and it is difficult to communicate. The club needs to arrange full-time staff to help them master the language as soon as possible.

As the most important signing of the club this summer, Immobile was the last to speak. He said that he was very happy to join the Turin team for the third time. Returning to the training ground here is like returning to his home.He is also very excited to have the opportunity to learn from Li Moody, a coach who is too young but whose coaching ability has already resounded in the European continent. glory.

Regarding this flattery, Xiao Li said in his heart: "You have vision", but there was still a smile on his face all the time, and he didn't make any big reaction.Although it is not clear whether the current member of the Italian national team really admires himself as he said, the FM system shows that Immobile is indeed very happy about the transfer to Turin.Here is his good friend Belotti, there are many young talents who are about to reach the peak of player ability at the age of 23 or 4, plus the high salary offered by the new club in order to make him nod and agree to join (will be introduced later), In terms of personal feelings, the team's future performance and treatment are all better than staying in Lazio, his mood will naturally be extremely wonderful.

And not only Immobile, but almost all the new players are both happy and a little excited to be able to join the Red Bulls. Li Mudi thinks that he has been the head coach of the Torino team for a year. The status of the club and the creation of a river crab team are still good and deserve praise.
