Chapter 508 Becoming a Father and a "Temporary Worker"

On the penultimate day of 2019, Zidane returned to his job as head coach after a lapse of one and a half years, taking over the coach of Paris Saint-Germain, making Real Madrid and Juventus Si was heartbroken.

And his first big money after taking office immediately shocked the whole world, 2.9 million euros to buy Mbappé, who has become the next strong contender for the world champion. If the transaction is completed, it will once again break the world football transfer fee record .However, Lafayette will obviously not agree to let go of the new signboard of the Galaxy Battleship. After threatening that the only way for other teams to poach the French star is to pay one billion liquidated damages, he immediately started contract renewal negotiations with Mbappe , intending to double the number of liquidated damages.

Fortunately, due to the good relationship between Qi Zu and Real Madrid, this transfer intention was not transformed into a tug-of-war. After a brief exchange between the two sides, they quickly put it on hold.Finally, in the winter window, Greater Paris introduced from Leverkusen Leon Bailey, a young winger who has made a big splash in the Bundesliga in the past two years, at a price of 9800 million euros. The impact force has been obviously strengthened.

Speaking carefully, this player was recommended by Li Moody to his good friends, because in the latest use of scouting tools to detect the player's potential, the Jamaican winger born in 1997 already has a double value of 147 and 178.

Although in terms of potential, he still has a certain distance from the world's top superstars such as Ronaldo, Bale, and Mbappe, but the key is that as a citizen of the world's sprint kingdom, his ability in speed is simply against the sky. of.The speed and explosive power of double 19 allow him to push most defenders to the point of doubting their lives without too much other abilities. What's more, the young man's skills have made great progress after several years of polishing in the Bundesliga.

Combined with the room for improvement of more than 30 points between the current ability and the future potential, when he really matures, at worst, he will be a Bell with enhanced speed and slightly weakened other aspects. The most important thing is that he is not like a great saint. Willing to get hurt that way.Therefore, in the eyes of Li Moody, this transaction is quite worthwhile. After all, today's football transfer market is still in a situation where the value of players is inflated, and it cannot be measured by the transfer fees of previous years.If Cristiano Ronaldo at his peak was in the current environment, and Juventus didn't spend [-] million yuan, do you think Lafayette would respond?Just kidding!
After the introduction of Leon Bailey, Zizou can just spend half a season integrating him into the team, and then use him to replace Di Maria, who is getting older and his strength has begun to decline.Paired with Neymar, who is at his peak, the offensive ends of the two wings of Paris can stand at the top of the entire world football in the next three or four years. The first giants still have a chance to attack the Champions League trophy.

In this winter transfer window, except for the big deal mentioned above, the overall situation is still a little calm.Because the first real European Cup will be held in the summer (there is no clear host country, the finals will be held in 12 countries), followed by the Olympic journey, so many giants still adopt A more conservative strategy has resulted in small fights in the transfer market and rare big moves.

Another thing that deserves Li Moody's attention is how the Turin team has performed in the six months since he left.

After Gasperini took charge of the Red Bulls, he did not make major changes to the original lineup as expected by the outside world. He only sold several players who were not in his plan, such as Kanneman and Silvestri. Players, and then added Alejandro Gomez, a disciple who had coached in Atlanta in the past, and Conte Jr. was loaned from AC Milan.

但是在战术方面，这位意大利名帅还是顶住了前任获得过巨大成就的压力，将自己的一些理念植入了球队当中。同为三后卫的偏好者，加帅在前场的变化要更多一些，3-4-1-2、3-4-2-1、3-5-2、3-4-3这几套阵型都是他储备库中的常见武器，所以自然会对前场球员的适应能力提出更高的要求。

In this regard, the teenager Pellegri failed to integrate himself well into the coach's system, and his playing time dropped sharply compared with last season, so his performance was naturally unsatisfactory.So throughout the season, Italian and foreign media have been rumored that this Italian super striker star is likely to choose to leave the team in the last two transfer windows, so as to get more actual combat opportunities.

Finally, at the moment before the winter window closed, Monaco paid a sky-high price of 5000 million euros to recruit him, adding one last topic worth exciting to this originally too peaceful winter in European football.

As we all know, when Li Mudi was coaching the Turin team, how much he valued Pellegri's development potential, and in order to cultivate this center who he thought would be the strongest center of the new generation of Italy, he did not hesitate to sacrifice a lot of Bello. The playing time of the two international players, Dete and Immobile.Therefore, after the transfer deal of the young player was finalized, many reporters hoped to hear dissatisfaction from Li Mudi, who was "reclusive" in Mallorca, but they couldn't find the target person, because the other party was so homey .

But for Li Moody himself, he really didn't say that he had any small emotions. In fact, Pellegri made a special call before agreeing to the transfer, seeking advice from his mentor.And it was after receiving the support and affirmation of the latter that he made up his mind to go abroad.Because he is now at the stage where he needs to gain a lot of game time to grow rapidly. If he cannot be recognized by the current Turin coach, then switching to Monaco, which promised to provide him with sufficient opportunities, is also a good choice.

Afterwards, things developed as described above. The Ligue [-] runner-up got a good seed who could grow into a top center in the future, and the Serie A defending champion got the ideal funds. With the head coach providing more transfer investment, the fundraising task for next season was completed ahead of schedule. It can be said that everyone is happy.Of course, the only ones who feel sad about this are the fans of the Torino team.

But aside from this transfer, Gasperini's performance in his first season in charge of his new club is still very impressive, even if it is difficult for someone who is too critical to jump out and criticize.

Before the start of the season, Juventus vowed to regain its dominance in the country, so after a lot of recruiting operations, the strength of the team was strengthened to a historical level; After the running-in in the second half of the season, they found the demeanor of the top European giants in the past; coupled with the stability and progress of Inter Milan, Roma and other teams, the Red Bulls can be said to be facing the cruelest defending environment in history.

But even under such extremely harsh conditions, the Turin team under the leadership of Jiashuai still held the top three positions in the standings in the first half of the league. The point difference with the top team is controlled within two or three points, which has laid a good foundation for the continued sprint after the winter break.

After entering the second round, the Turin players finally fully grasped the tactical thinking of the new head coach, which improved their state in the game to a certain extent, and finally took the lead at the end of March. The position of the sheep, and for the first time in history, entered the quarter-finals of the Champions League, which almost made Li Moody's name completely disappear among some forgetful fans.

It's a pity that Nokia and Belotti suffered serious injuries one after another, and they were directly reimbursed for the season. In addition, other players also suffered from various physical and psychological problems, which led to the Red Bulls finally falling in the finale. Stage, did not replicate last year's miracle.

In the end, the Turin team won the third place in Serie A, the semi-finals of the Italian Cup, the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and the runner-up of the Italian Super Cup. The results are quite good.The only regret is that there is no championship honor, otherwise it would be more perfect.

The life of Real Madrid, another team related to Li Mudi, is not so easy.Lafayette couldn't wait until Lopetegui's youth guards rose to sweep the world. After halfway through the league, the Galacticos squeezed into the top four of the standings, were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, and the Champions League group stage again. Falling to the second place in the group, all this made the president of Real Madrid, who claimed to be patient enough, no longer be able to maintain his demeanor. He decisively fired the former Spanish national team coach in mid-January and helped Guti get back on his feet.

The performance of "Fourteen Lords" is not ashamed of the super high ability evaluated by the FM system. He led the team all the way in the second half of the season, and almost completed the miracle of Qi Zu's debut as Real Madrid's coach.It's a pity that in the end, it was also because of the relatively large number of points in the early stage, and it was the runner-up of La Liga. The Champions League was a penalty kick in the semi-finals, but this result is enough for the club's executives and fans to see hope for the future.

However, this information is nothing more than Li Modi's occasional spices in his spare time. Since the summer of 2019, his life has always been on his family's side.And for a long time to come, home and family will be where he puts the most energy.

On March 2020, 3, the 16rd day of the second lunar month, in the International Hospital in Madrid, Lin Yuner gave birth to a daughter naturally. The baby weighs 6 catties and 3 taels. She is very healthy and looks more beautiful than other newborns ( It is purely Li Modi's personal opinion), which immediately became the common treasure of the Lin and Li families.

The birth of the child also brought about a major change in Li Modi's identity. From then on, he finally grew up and had to strictly demand himself as a good father.

For this reason, he abandoned the "late stage symptoms of lazy cancer" that he had been unable to get rid of before, and started a arduous exercise program while doing his best to take care of his recovering wife and angelic daughter.In his own words, he hopes to give his wife and children a solid and strong arm, so that they will be safe all their lives.

However, during the painful days of sweating profusely every day, Li Modi felt as if he was living in heaven all the time. Whenever he hugged his daughter with extremely unskilled movements and looked at her extremely cute sleeping face, he felt His heart will completely turn into a puddle of water, wanting to pour all his love on the little baby.

Moreover, Li Mudi has also developed a habit of always calling her daughter's nickname in a low voice, hoping that the baby can give him a response.And when the baby turns his newly opened eyes to himself, he will have an indescribable excitement in his heart, thinking that he is the happiest man in the world.

Oh, by the way, he gave his daughter the name Li Xiyin, nicknamed Xixi, which was taken from the Tao Te Ching, "The great sound has no sound, but the elephant has no form".

The literal translation of the original text means "the loudest sound is soundless, and the biggest image has no shape", but it can be interpreted as "the greater the achievement, the more far-reaching it is, and the more generous it is, the more tolerant it is. Everything" (from Encyclopedia), this is Lao Tzu's description of the nature of the "Tao" in his mind.

So to understand it in a more popular way, you can use "big sound is invisible, and elephant has no form" to describe a kind of beautiful highest state in people's minds. This is the blessing and expectation that Li Mudi gave to his daughter, hoping that she can have the most perfect life.

Of course, these two characters are chosen because there are really few suitable words for naming girls in the "Tao Te Ching". The "Book of Songs" with such beautiful characters is indeed inferior in terms of naming.But who let the child's father be one of the "metaphysics masters" recognized in the West, so he had to bite the bullet and search through the entire "Tao Te Ching". Fortunately, the final result can still satisfy everyone.

It's just that this kind of relaxed and carefree life finally ushered in the end, and it was so sudden.

On May 5, when there were only 29 days left before the opening of the European Cup in 2020, the Russian Football Association suddenly announced that Cherchesov, the meritorious head coach who has coached the country's men's adult national team since 14, suffered from health problems. Due to the reasons, he had to resign from all positions, and the successor was Li Moody who had been at home for a whole year.

As soon as this news was reported, it immediately became the focus of sports circles all over the world.And when the media broke the news in depth that the contract was only valid until July 7, the second day of the European Cup final match day, and it would take only 13 days after the full game, the football world was completely blown up. Horse situation?
