Chapter 151: Two Brazilians

Chiellini is Changsheng's biggest transfer target this summer. Apart from that, he has no other signing targets.

Because his lineup is already very mature, he doesn't need to think about buying and selling people like he did in two seasons.

He wants to maintain the stability of the lineup.

Even if you want to sell people to make money, you are only selling individual players. Like Melo.

So in fact, Chang Sheng's saying that his team is not for sale is also true. Most of the players are indeed not for sale, and he does not intend to sell them.

From this time on, Lazio will enter a period of real development and growth.

On the framework set up now, the future Lazio, which is destined to dominate Europe, has already taken shape. There are Falcao, Benzema, David Silva, Cazorla and Cavani in the future. Rocky can't play the main force in the team, but as a veteran, he can play a role at critical moments.

Especially if your team needs to fight on multiple fronts, you must reserve enough players.

Although the midfielder left Melo, this will not have any impact on Lazio's strength.

The role of Melo can be filled by Khedira.

In fact, in these two seasons, Chang Sheng has consciously asked Khedira to do what Melo did.

Whether in training or in games, Khedira will be a midfielder with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

After two seasons of running-in, Chang Sheng believes that Khedira is ready.

In addition to Khedira, I also have Modric, Inle, Ledesma and Nocerino.

Modric is an organizer of the new era. He can pass the ball to the organization, or he can dribble the ball to break through. He also has the ability to shoot from a long distance and score well.

Inle and Ledesma are similar to him, both offensive and defensive midfielders who can organize attacks and defend at the same time. But the ability is weaker than Modric.

Nocerino is a pure defender. It's a bit like Milan's Gattuso. Of course, his ability is not as good as Gattuso's, and he is much more youthful than the old-fashioned Gattuso.

In the backcourt, after Chiellini came, he will not play the main force immediately.

After all, Chang Sheng didn't want Chiellini to go up and get raped,

Although Chiellini was forced out in this way, since he has other methods, there is no need to continue to repeat history.

The main central defender combination this season will be the Spanish defender combination composed of Jose Passarella and Francisco Pavon.

In addition he has Stendardo and Campagnaro.

Kolarov needs to be introduced at full-back this season.

In this way, there are three people at the left back position: Balzaretti, Kolarov and Coentrao.

Coentrao Changsheng intends to loan him out. He got some opportunities last season, but it was not enough. He needs a stable chance to play in order to grow.

As for who it is on loan to... Of course it is Lazio's satellite club Getafe.

Getafe is coached by Benitez, and Chang Sheng believes in the coach's tactical level.

Secondly, you can go to keep company with Azpilicueta.

Lichtsteiner and Abate are at right back.

The main goalkeeper is Handanovic, and the two substitute goalkeepers are promoted from the youth team and the reserve team. But they only have the chance to play in competitions like the Coppa Italia, and they can't shake Handanovic's main position at ordinary times.

This is Lazio's current first-team lineup.

There are not many people, but all of them are good soldiers and good generals.

※※※

Originally, Chang Sheng thought that he would not need to buy and sell people, but people are not as good as God, and the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

Within two days, Blanco called again, and this time they wanted to buy someone from Lazio.

"We want your right-back Lichtsteiner."

Blanco's attitude is particularly sincere.

Chang Sheng was taken aback for a moment.

When poaching Lichtsteiner from Lille, he thought about selling the Swiss international to make money.

But he didn't expect that after only one year of playing, Lichtsteiner would have a buyer.

Can Lichtsteiner be sold?

Of course.

The problem is that after selling Lichtsteiner, he must find a right back. Abate is only 21 years old this year, and he is still too immature for a defender.

And if Lichtsteiner is sold, there will only be one right back. Azpilicueta is too young to be useful. So we still have to find a new right back.

The key is who to buy?

After telling Blanco that he needed to think about it, Chang Sheng hung up the phone.

Then he leaned back in his chair and stared up at the ceiling, watching and mentally recalling who he thought would be a suitable right-back.

Considering the particularity of Lazio's finances, although there are many good right backs, there are not many that Changsheng can actually buy.

Chang Sheng simply cannot afford someone like Dennis Alves.

So it is really not easy to find a right back who is suitable for Lazio and himself from here.

After much deliberation, a name popped up in Chang Sheng's mind.

Juliano Belletti.

The main right back of the Barcelona Dream Team 2 is facing a turning point this summer.

He started in Europe at Villarreal and after two outstanding seasons, he moved to Barcelona.

In Barcelona, ​​he just caught up with the gap period after Chang Sheng left, and followed Barcelona to win two seasons of league titles and a Champions League title.

And this is not from soy sauce. What impressed Chang Sheng most was the 2006 UEFA Champions League final. Barcelona faced Arsenal with one more player, but fell into a hard fight.

As a result, after Belletti came on as a substitute for Oleg in the second half, he scored a goal for Barcelona to overtake the score.

Chang Sheng was deeply impressed by the scene of him covering his face with his hands and lying on the turf after scoring the goal.

That one goal completely destroyed Arsenal's morale. In the end, Barcelona defeated Arsenal 3:1, won the championship trophy, and the second dream team was officially established.

However, after helping the team win the Champions League, his career began to decline. Due to too many injuries, he played only 13 games on and off in Barcelona last season.

Affected by injuries, he is no longer the person Barcelona needs. At the right back position, Barcelona has Zambrotta.

Therefore, it is normal for Belletti to leave.

Now that the summer has just begun, if you go for it yourself, you should be able to grab him before Chelsea.

After arriving at Chelsea, Belletti still guaranteed his attendance in the first two seasons.

Anyway, the normal victory didn't expect Belletti to play all the games of the season, just taking turns with Abate.

So don't worry about buying an injury number.

Of course, in the third season, Belletti will become a glass man again. At that time, he basically would not recover again. Until he retired, he was in a cycle of constant injury comeback and injury again.

But now, he can also contribute his strength in Lazio.

Chang Sheng is not a genius doctor, and the plug-in system can't turn a glass man into a tough guy on the court.

But he can at least allow Belletti to win more championships in the last normal period of his career and have a second spring.

He felt that this was the greatest humanity to a professional player.

※※※

After confirming the candidate, Chang Sheng did not call Blanco immediately.

He has to be sure that Belletti will come to Lazio before he sells Lichtsteiner.

This man is very cautious.

So he called Lotito.

The matter of finding Barcelona to buy Belletti is left to the chairman of the club. I have a personal enmity with Laporta. If he came forward, maybe Laporta would not sell.

Belletti has an Italian passport, so he can join an Italian team without taking up the quota for non-EU players.

The next thing is to wait for the news.

While waiting for the news, Chang Sheng thought of another person.

He felt that he could also buy it to supplement his team's strength, and save it to make money later.

There are many similarities between this man and Belletti.

For example, they are all Brazilians...

Of course, the most important similarity is...they both turned into glass men later on.

This person is Thiago Motta.

Motta received youth training in Barcelona in the early years, and can also be regarded as an excellent player produced by the "La Masia Youth Academy".

In the first few seasons of the 2000s, he gradually began to play in the Barcelona first team.

As a talented midfielder, his future is optimistic by many people.

But just when he was maturing, injuries, the biggest enemy of this professional player found him.

The 2003-2004 season was Motta's last fairly good season in Lazio. He played twenty times that season and scored one goal. Then he began an endless cycle of injuries.

Attendance plummeted.

In the 2004-2005 season, at the beginning of the new season, because of the torn cruciate ligament of his left knee in the game against Sevilla, he returned to Brazil to rest for almost a year, and did not come back until the last few games at the end of the season. experience.

That season, he ended up playing eight games.

In the next two seasons, injuries have always plagued him.

No one could say exactly why he was so injury-prone.

The talented midfielder who had been placed with high hopes at the beginning, fell down time and time again due to injuries, and was eventually forgotten by everyone.

If Chang Sheng remembers correctly, Motta will be completely given up by Barcelona this summer.

He went to Atletico Madrid. The hopeful star of La Masia at the beginning only cost Atletico Madrid one million euros.

However, he continued to be injured at Atletico Madrid and only played six games in one season. The performance was appalling.

So after one season, Mota will be abandoned again.

This time he chose to join the Italian team. Because he has Italian ancestry.

This was a turning point in his career.

In the small team Genoa, he has become a well-deserved core, and injuries are far away from him. Sufficient playing time, coupled with outstanding performance, attracted Mourinho's attention for him.

After playing a "godlike" season in Genoa, Motta moved to Inter Milan for 13 million euros.

In the first season of Inter Milan, he successfully played the role of the core of the midfield, and together with Cambiasso, Inter Milan's offense sprinted empty.

The almighty Motta became an integral part of Mourinho's tactics.

Together with Inter Milan, Motta performed well and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

However, at Camp Nou, facing his former club, Motta became the protagonist of a controversial penalty.

When he protected the ball, he swung his hand back and pushed the Barcelona player Butzquez who came up to defend.

It was obvious that what was pushed was the chest, but Butzkes fell to the ground exaggeratedly covering his face, rolling on the ground in pain.

This made the referee think that Motta was a very bad foul and sent him off with a red card.

The red card sent off in the second leg of the semi-final means that even if Inter Milan eliminated Barcelona and entered the final, Motta would not be able to get the chance to play in the Champions League final.

Mota was crying at that time.

But at that time, no one cared about him anymore, and the scene of Butzkes who fell on the ground raised his hands and peeked at the referee became the focus of everyone's discussion.

So poor Motta just missed his only Champions League final appearance in his career.

Motta's career was only brilliant for two years, and then he fell into endless injuries...

When representing Italy in the European Cup final, he even played for only three minutes before being injured. The Italian team, which used up three substitutions, could only face off with ten people, and finally lost to Spain 0:4.
