Mister Legend

Chapter 375

Loaning Hesse again was also Li Moody's last card. After all the forwards selected by various conditions were unable to be loaned, he even moved the idea of ​​directly buying a young player with potential. Communicated with the club chairman and applied for more funds as a preparation.However, the 3000 million euros could not be spent after all, because the current transfer market is even crazier than he estimated. This huge sum of money that was able to pack Belotti and Immobile two years ago, is now Not even half of one of them can be bought right now.

Ajax responded to the Turin club's inquiry for the 750-year-old striker Kluivert Jr., who was valued at 18 million euros, as 3500 million plus additional floating terms. If all are agreed, the total value will exceed 4500 million; Dortmund , the appetite is even greater, the price of the Swedish demon boy Isaac who only played 300 minutes for the first team throughout the year is 5000 million, and no bargaining is allowed; as for Italian domestic players such as Cutrone and Pinamonti, they have already Naturally, famous talents are not for sale in various clubs, and they cannot be poached at all.

However, the target that Li Moody finally delineated—North Korean striker Han Kwang-song who was loaned to Serie B Perugia by Cagliari, but because the news was leaked, he ushered in a malicious price increase from his rival Juventus in the same city. The Sardinian team realized that the player in their hands was likely to be a rare treasure, and finally decided not to sell it for the time being, but retrieved it from the second division in advance and put it in the first team to vigorously cultivate.As the first North Korean player to land in Serie A, Han Kwang-song performed very well during the first half of the season on loan in Serie B. He scored 17 goals and sent 7 assists in 3 games. Evaluation in the FM system It also continues to rise, and the potential value detected by the scouting tool has reached about 150.It's a pity that the red bull can only pass by when the old woman meddles like this.

In the end, after all the options were lost, the Turin coach had no choice but to use his last guarantee trick, which was to reach out to his old club to poach people, and borrowed Jesse, who had completely lost his position at the Bernabeu due to injuries and rotations. .This time the player transaction was handled by Guinness, and all the links were finalized in just half a day, which can be said to be amazingly efficient.After all, Heqiu King is also a client of this football tycoon.At the same time, this move also helped Li Mudi's good friend Qi Zu, which made him reduce the unstable factors in the team, and also facilitated him to make a more reasonable deployment of the lineup, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.

And there is another advantage of renting Heqiu King, that is, although he has already played in the Champions League for Real Madrid this season, due to UEFA's latest rules on European competitions, after the group stage, before the start of the knockout stage. A team participating in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League can make up to three changes to the registration list, including substitutions, reductions and additions.However, there are specific requirements for the change of players. He cannot play for another team in the same type of competition before.Real Madrid is playing in the Champions League and has already entered the knockout rounds, while Turin has reached the knockout rounds of the Europa League. The two sides just meet this requirement, so Jesse can play for the new club in the next European games.

It is worth mentioning that although the newly joined French veteran Toulalan represented Porto in the Europa League play-offs last summer, according to the latest UEFA regulations: playing in the first three qualifying rounds and the original team Players who have not advanced to the group stage are eligible to represent the new team after completing their summer transfer.Porto just happened to be eliminated in the third qualifying round, so Tulalan can also enter the Red Bull's European registration list, which is why "Turin Sports" and other media will manipulate the two transactions of Li Mudi One of the reasons for the likes.

The transfer market in the past few days still maintains the level of activity at the beginning of the opening of the window, but it is difficult to see large-scale transactions. They are all minor repairs, which makes everyone's attention return to the restarted national leagues. At noon on Sunday, January 1st, Serie A, the last of the five major leagues to end the winter break, officially announced its return. In the collision, they beat Atlanta with a small away goal, which consolidated their position in the standings, and at the same time put a lot of pressure on the chasers behind them.

At 15:6 Rome time, six games kicked off at the same time, among which the Turin team challenged Sassuolo away.The Green and Black Legion currently ranks No. 3 in the league with 11 wins, 21 draws, 13 losses and 11 points. The results are not ideal, and it is the second consecutive season of decline.However, the head coach Iachini, who took over the team at the end of November, showed his excellent coaching ability to the outside world. After he entered the Mapei Tricolor Stadium, he led the team to play six league games and two Italian Cup games. The latter lost 1-2 away to Atlanta in the quarter-finals and was eliminated, but the performance in Serie A is still a big improvement compared with the predecessor. 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses helped the team temporarily escape the threat of the relegation zone.

After Sassuolo's coaching change, their home results are very good. Not to mention the victory over Bari in Serie B in the cup match, they also defeated Crotone and Inter Milan in the league.Especially in the one-goal victory over the Nerazzurri on December 12rd, they used tenacious and effective defense to make many of Inter Milan's stars helpless under the unfavorable situation of only 23% of the ball possession rate. Greatly boosted your morale.After that, Sassuolo continued their good form until the next week, and drew with the powerful Roma team in the away game.It's a pity that in the last round of the game before the arrival of the winter break, they lost 28 to 0 at the foot of Genoa, which is not outstanding in strength, and suffered a big blow.

After the opening of the winter window, the Green and Black Legion did not make any major adjustments to the lineup. They just let go of the veteran right-back Gazola, and then used the buyout clause in advance to officially purchase from Juventus at a fee of 700 million euros. The young Spanish right-back Lirola came on loan.This transfer made the Turin coach very envious. He was very optimistic about the future development of the 20-year-old before, and believed that the young man had the opportunity to grow into a new generation of the world's best right back.It's just that due to the hostile relationship between the Red Bull and the Bianconeri, he is destined to be unable to sign this potential young player. Now that Sassuolo has missed him, can Li Modi not feel envious and jealous?

In addition, Fiorentina striker Babacar, who was put on the loan list by Turin, is also negotiating with Iachini's team, and it is basically certain that he will join on loan this winter.Viola previously rejected the red bull's loan proposal on the grounds that she was unwilling to keep the player in Italian football, but the fundamental reason was that she was unwilling to strengthen her rivals, although the current point difference between the two teams has been widened to 14 points Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why they renegedly agreed to Sassuolo's loan invitation after Jesse joined the Turin team for the second time.

However, since the negotiation of several players who may join the team, including Babakar, has not yet been implemented, so in this game, Yakini can only continue to use the team's previous staffing to deal with the enemy, but this can also make They took advantage of the tacit cooperation of the team, and the hope of scoring points or even winning at home still exists.

Of course, Iachini will not be confident enough to start a confrontation with Torino, which has the fourth most goals in Serie A. Even at home, Sassuolo, who has a weaker defense and weaker offense this season, can only choose a defensive counterattack strategy. I hope The defense that suppressed the attackers of Inter Milan and Rome before can also be in excellent condition today. In the 4-3-3 position, all the main players used by new coaches are on the field. The three midfielders Magnanelli, Missiroli and Ghanaian international Alfred Duncan are all players with good defensive ability. It can effectively protect the dangerous zone at the front of the restricted area.The offensive end will be handed over to Berardi. Center Falcinelli and left winger Ragusa's state and scoring ability are mediocre this season, but as long as Lu Beibei can give full play to himself With creativity, scoring goals is not impossible.

What the whole world knows, Li Moody will naturally not fail to make targeted arrangements. Today, the main formation is 3-5-2, left wing back Bareca, left center back Canneman and the left midfielder Musi The three of Sri Lanka are the three gates he prepared for the opponent's top star.The purpose of the Turin coach is to force Berardi to give up his best inside cut, and instead use his mediocre cross as an attack method. If he switches to the left to move, then Sylvie on the other side will Defensive players such as Sterry and Diego Llorente will also take care of them, but the threat of Green Beibei, who can only pass from the left, will be much smaller, which will reduce the threat factor of the visiting team's goal by at least half.

As for the visiting team's starting striker combination, although Belotti's injury symptoms have basically disappeared, Li Moody does not intend to rashly send him on the field, but is very cautious to let the team medical team keep track of him. The possibility of recurrence is reduced to a minimum.So in this game, Hong Beibei didn't even enter the 23-man roster, and was directly left in the club by the head coach.He is accompanied by two new players. Tulalang still needs to be familiar with the team's new tactics, while Jesse is in a bad physical condition because he has just recovered from a muscle strain for about two weeks. Unable to keep up with the rhythm of the game, next weekend is a good time for them to play.So today's starting striker is the combination of Immobile and Pellegri. The youth team's Johannes Egerstein was once again drawn to the first team and sat on the bench for the second time.

After the start of the game, facing the home team that focuses on the defensive end, the Turin players will naturally take the initiative in possession of the ball, but without Belotti, they have few ways to break through the dense defense.Although Pellegri is tall, he is only under 17 years old after all, and he can't take advantage of the opponent's experienced defenders.Due to the retreat of the opponent's defense as a whole and being taken care of, it was also difficult for Immobile to give full play to his advantages in speed and running. For a while, the two teams formed a stalemate on the field.Although the visiting team had the ball for a long time, they did not form many goals. The home team's defensive counterattack was also unable to threaten Cassie due to the limited force invested, which made the game a bit dull and boring to the audience.

Seeing that the players on the court were unable to start the situation, Li Mudi did not show impatience. After all, there is still a lot of time, and there is no need to gamble with all his abilities to suppress the offense. Not conceding the ball first is the basic goal.But he still got up and walked to the sidelines when the game time came to No. 20 minutes, signaling the frontcourt players such as Benassi and Baselli to strengthen their personal breakthroughs and try to get more opportunities for set kicks.

Due to the absence of the veteran Cannavaro due to injury, Iakini had to let the 24-year-old Dutch central defender Mo Lechter and Acerbi partner with the central defender today, although the latter is 1.9 meters tall and has better header ability. , but the former with less game experience can become the key target of attack.His double 14 header and jumping ability are not bad at first glance. With a height of 188 cm, he can be regarded as a tower of defense, but the value of prediction and decision-making is not high, and his stealing ability is not up to standard. It is very likely If there is a mistake under high pressure, it will become an opportunity for the Torino team.

Sure enough, this tactic quickly produced good results. The visiting team scored four or five free kicks within the opponent's half, three of which were very close to the home team's penalty area.The continuous long balls still caused a lot of trouble for the Sassuolo players. Goalkeeper Consigli collided with his teammates when he went out to pick the ball, and almost sent an empty goal. Thanks to the timely response of the left back veteran Peluso , and cleared the ball with one kick, which avoided the tragedy.

But today's goddess of luck did not choose to stand by any side, so Sassuolo, who has no players to turn into dramas and superheroes to turn the tide, still failed to complete the seal when his penalty area was constantly being attacked by opponents , an involuntary error changed the score.

In the 30th minute, Pellegri was placed by the opposing player on the right and won a free kick for the team.Bareca sent a sharp long pass with his left foot and went straight to the back point. There was Immobile who suddenly started to throw off the marker. The Turin striker had already made an arch push. Just waiting for the ball to hit his protruding left foot.Realizing that the situation was extremely critical, Lecter threw his body sideways in the middle without hesitation, barely blocking the flight trajectory of the ball with the instep of his left foot, but he failed to master the footwork in a flash, so that the ball produced He changed direction and headed straight for his own goal.Fortunately, Concily's reaction ability is as high as 17, and the subconscious side attack just intercepted the ball on the goal line with one hand, which did not make the Dutch central defender's own goal come true.However, the goalkeeper of the home team was unable to control the ball in the first place. Baselli, who was ambushed at a close point, easily made up the empty goal. The score became 0 to 1 after all, but the scorer changed from his own player to Only the other party.

The Sassuolo team who lost the goal will naturally feel very regretful. The cheers of the home team fans on the scene were also interrupted for 1 minute. The head coach Iachini had to come to the sidelines to arrange the latest tactical arrangements for the players.Li Mudi, who is not far away, is waiting for the opponent's change of tactics, and then decides how to deal with it. His team is bound to win this game, and getting tickets to the Champions League is their most important goal in the second half of the season .All the games that should be won can't be lost. Today's three-pointer was originally not necessary in the team's plan, but now that we have taken the lead, returning to Turin with a victory must be completed Mission gone.
