After getting these materials, Spalletti hid in her hut with a track record and planned to study them carefully.
As a result, Spalletti stayed in the room for a day. If he hadn’t remembered to come out for dinner, someone would have gone to see if he had an accident in the room …
Wenger Monaco keeps two stars Henry and Trezeguet brilliant in attack, but in Spalletti’s view, these two young players are quite poor in defensive enthusiasm. Beat them hard. Spalletti has been looking for suitable players to make them have some sense of crisis, so that they can take the initiative to seek change.
The Ivory Coast center recommended by Florence is the type of striker that Spalletti needs now.
He is very strong, and his defensive attitude is very positive. Sometimes he will retreat to the restricted area to defend and get the ball, but he will not be greedy. Although he knows how to make the ball for his teammates in a better position, it can also be said that Ivorians have a good sense of the ball.
Spalletti appreciates Drogba’s hard work and personal attitude, and thinks that he definitely has the potential to be a very good striker. Although it can be seen from the video that Drogba has great technical shortcomings, it is not a striker’s offensive skills in Spalletti’s view, but the defense depends on personal attitude.
(Note that Spalletti is quite good at training players in history, especially those attacking players, such as Montera and Dinatale, who are his favorite students).
Monaco will face a three-line battle this season. The introduction of Drogba can increase the depth of the team’s bench, and the Ivorians are still free and can sign bargains without pulling out the transfer.
It was only during the summer training period that Sospalletti came to Paris to sign a contract. No one has noticed Drogba yet.
"But coach Spalletti, don’t you think I’m not good enough for Monaco, a prestigious club?" Drogba couldn’t wait to slap himself as soon as he said this sentence-how many jobs did the Monaco head coach push off and come to Paris to sign a contract with this famous pawn? Now, if you tell others that, isn’t it equal to saying that the other person sees that he has eyes?
Spalletti was not angry at Drogba’s slip of the tongue, but looked at the look in front of him with a little panic. The Ivorian black man smiled easily and said, "Didier seems to know what your weakness is."
"Yes, my skills have always been inferior to those of my peers in training camps since childhood, and most of them rely on my body to fight hard." Drogba, who said his biggest weakness, also said naively, "I have made a lot of efforts, but I just don’t know what those skills are."
"I think that’s because Didier you haven’t found a football that suits you." Spalletti shrugged his shoulders and easily analyzed it for Drogba. "I don’t want to belittle the French’s ability to train young players. After all, they have trained a group of stars by relying on this youth training model, but I have to say that their training model is not suitable for you. You have never played your potential in your body."
"Huh?" Drogba has always heard from the coaches of those teams that his skills are rough and difficult to achieve great things. This is the first time he has heard this truth.
I can’t blame Drogba for his ignorance. He has been working hard in France for a long time. Because of his family and environment, he didn’t have the opportunity to understand the football style of other countries. Naturally, he didn’t know that the French training mode full of romance was not suitable for him.
"If you grew up in England, I believe that with your physical condition and that kind of long-rushing and hanging tactics, you would have already broken into a world in English football." Spalletti simply explained an English football style to Drogba. "But after training in France for so many years, you still have some benefits. I have seen your game videos. Although your skills are still very flawed, you have gained a certain degree in vision and the ability to hold the ball on your back."
After listening to Spalletti’s analysis, Drogba nodded his head. In training, he did not give less balls to his teammates. Unfortunately, the requirement for this powerful center in today’s football is not how many assists his teammates can send or how many defenses the team has made in the game, but how many goals he can score in a season.
Obviously, Drogba is not qualified in this most important indicator.
"How about Didier? Do you want to go to Monaco with me and become a super center that scares all teams? " Spalletti smiled and extended a hand to invite Drogba.
For a moment, Drogba thought that this sentence by Spalletti was the most beautiful sound in the world.
Immediately afterwards, the Ivorians smiled and held out a hand to hold the palm of Spalletti’s hand tightly and said, "I’m glad, Mr. Spalletti."
"No, Didier," Spalletti said with a smile, pointing out the mistakes in Drogba’s words. "It’s too much to call me that. If you want to join Monaco, you should call me the boss."
"Good boss, I am very happy to join Monaco. I am glad that you can give me this chance to prove myself." Drogba nodded and said, "I will not let you down."
Chapter 522 When the plan is in progress (5)
Aft Drogba was brought back to Monaco club, Spalletti accidentally met Zhuang Ge, who was just visiting, for two main reason: first, Monaco’s top management should sign a new agreement to formally incorporate this Ligue 1 club into Florence satellite club; Second, the Fiorentina first team has also come here and is preparing to play a warm-up match with Monaco to make full preparations for the new season.
However, the day before the warm-up match, Spalletti took the initiative to find Zhuang Ge and invited him to the training ground to watch the training of Monaco’s first team. Since then, the two have had quite in-depth exchanges on some issues in Spalletti’s office.
"President Corleone, do you think Claude (Claude Makelele) is more suitable to play in the midfield position than the right back now?" Spalletti asked doubtfully that he was going to let Makelele take the place of Sagnol, a new starting right-back who has retired from Dimeco, but he didn’t expect the other side to come up with an idea that he had never considered before, that is, to change Makelele’s position and let him play in the back.
"Yes, the right-back can play no less than Dimeco on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, Makelele can broaden the offensive width of the team with the necessary support of the team like Dimeco." Zhuang Ge nodded and continued, "And after Petit and Dakot moved away, Monaco has a great position in the back. Although we rented two young players, Gennaro (Gattuso) and Simone (perrotta), to you in Florence, neither of them had much experience in major competitions. For the season, Monaco will face a third-line battle.
Spalletti is an Italian, and he also has a characteristic that almost all Italian coaches have, that is, the tactical accomplishment is quite rich, and Spalletti does not have a fixed coaching style. He often arranges specific tactics according to the existing configuration of the team.
Just like in history, when he coached in Rome, because the Red Wolves didn’t have a reliable center at that time and the Sensi family couldn’t make much transfer to support the club at that time, Spalletti decisively pushed Totti, the former forward, to the center position, and a set of "wolf tactics" made Rome reborn.
Therefore, Spalletti did not rush to deny Zhuang Ge’s suggestion, but seriously considered whether it was feasible.
Maybe someone will ask why Zhuang Ge didn’t tell Wenger about it before. The reason is very simple, because Zhuang Ge left a mind’s eye in those days, and he didn’t want the "professor" to know Makelele’s true strength, but Wenger knew very well that he liked to dig up folk songs.
If Zhuang Ge made Wenger discover Makelele’s great value in the back position and gave him a favor, how could there be Florence? I have already been wiped clean by Wenger at Arsenal.
Before the new stadium was built, Arsenal were not the four fanatics who sold their core every year. Now they are still one of the few giants who can wrestle with Manchester United in China.
Claude’s technique is excellent. When defending, he mostly relies on technique to grab the ball, mark people tightly and rarely lose positions. Spalletti has been in Monaco for more than a month, and he also has some impressions on Makelele. At this time, he is analyzing Makelele’s technical characteristics to see if he can change to play in the back. "I watched his pre-match video, and I was puzzled at that time that he had excellent technique but never overwhelmed the midfield to attack. Now it seems that he may really be a standard template for defensive back."
As he spoke, Spalletti got excited himself. He had taken over the Monaco team by himself, but he didn’t expect that there were so many treasures in the team that had lost blood in the summer.
Sure enough, it is a correct choice for the club to rely on the big tree of Florence, so the player configuration is much better than that of his former coach Empoli. It is not impossible to complete the league title four times in a row with a good plan.
At present, the striker of the team has Trezeguet and Drogba, and Henry Wakuri is separated from the left and right to lead the winger attack (note that Henry always played the winger position before joining Arsenal). There are Gattuso, perrotta and Makelele goalkeepers in the middle of the midfield, and the world-class goalkeeper Bai Ya is in charge.
It can be said that apart from the defensive line, Monaco’s starting lineup has been quite powerful.
Thought of here, Spalletti looked at Zhuang Ge and her eyes couldn’t help burning up.
"President Corleone, due to the departure of Ismail and leboeuf, Monaco now has no reliable player in the central defender position. I wonder if you have some good players to recommend to us?" Spalletti asked cautiously, after all, he asked the other party about this question, which was beyond the normal communication between the two people. It was kind of anyone in Monaco to show him how to change Makelele into a midfielder.
Spalletti certainly doesn’t know that Zhuang Ge’s goal is to let Monaco have more good seedlings and play better results. Otherwise, how can Florence draw from the transfer of these players?
"Well, let me think about it." Therefore, Zhuang Ge did not refuse to answer the question of Spalletti, but thought in his mind about which future stars could be recommended to each other.
Zhuang Ge is not going to recommend one or two central defenders in Monaco to let Spalletti make up the first team. Even after that, he is going to throw some good players to the other side for rotation. After all, if Monaco doesn’t play well in the European competition, these players in the team will be hard to get a price.
Monaco and Porto were the best examples in 4 years. How could their players have sold so much money in the summer when the transfer market was relatively depressed if these two teams had not both reached the final of the Champions League?
All the songs about Florence’s interests must also keep Monaco fighting capacity.
Chapter 523 When the plan is in progress (6)
It took Zhuang Ge a long time to give his answer in Spalletti’s expectant eyes.
"Defender, I personally suggest that you visit William Gallas, who plays for Caen. He is a defender. I heard that returning to Marseille in Ligue 1 pays great attention to him; In addition, Gallas teammate jerome rothen is also quite good. He is a left winger. Maybe you can consider buying him as a substitute for Henry. "
"Uh-huh!" Spalletti quickly took out the pen he had prepared and wrote down the players recommended by Zhuang Ge for fear that he would forget it carelessly, and then he would be ready to cry.
"There is also midfield. I recommend Bordeaux’s front waist johan micoud. Although he is not as good as Zida in scoring ability, he can’t choose it. It may be more expensive in terms of transfer. I think Bordeaux may not be willing to give you the midfield core easily. Le havre midfielder Dorasso is also good. Although he is not as good as Miku, his skills, creativity and overall situation are also moderate, which can sort out the midfield and control the rhythm of the game. "
"In addition, I have several recommendations for the position of defender." Zhuang Ge took the latest IBM notebook from Karin and skillfully typed an ECEL form inside, which was the name of the stars that Zhuang Ge will shine in the future according to the memory records when browsing the player database of Florence Information Center.
Even if the memory is good, these memories will gradually decline with the passage of time in the future, so Zhuang Ge chose to record many things in his memory in his brain and carefully make corresponding backups and keep them secret until they are not needed.
As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad writing …
Let’s see … Daniel Van Bitten now plays for the Serie A team, Shalerova. He is 196m tall. He has excellent defense ability and outstanding physical fitness, so that he won’t suffer badly in frontal defense and can threaten the opponent’s goal from a high point when attacking.
Spalletti looked at this notebook in the singer Zhuang with envy and couldn’t wait to rush over and grab it into his hand and write it down-how many valuable players are there!
However, this kind of thing can also be enjoyed by Spalletti in his head. If he really dares to grab words, Karin will beat the bald coach around Zhuang Ge and don’t even know his mother.
"In addition, I would also like to recommend Ryan defender Silvestre, who is also a versatile defender like Gallas, but occasionally loses attention during the game; Le havre Zimbonda is also good. He has excellent physical fitness and can get through the whole wing. Although he has no professional competition experience, it is still possible to buy him as a substitute for Sagnol. "
"…" Spallettimo didn’t bow his head and memorize it there.
Zhuang Ge was very satisfied with Spalletti’s listening attitude, and added, "It is also a good choice for Colombian central defender Ivan Cordoba to play at Medellin National Club."
"Uh-huh!" Spalletti didn’t even say anything, but she remembered all the directions of Zhuang songs, holding a gel pen and moving her right hand fast.
"Coach Spalletti has one more thing that you must remember. There must be a more secure choice. For example, Gallas should never be allowed to play as a central defender. It is best for him to play as a left-back." Zhuang Ge woke up very seriously. Spalletti said that in his memory, Gallas has many advantages as a central defender, such as excellent strength, strong antagonism, fast speed, flexible turning and excellent jumping ability. On the one hand, his technical ability and personal physical quality are absolutely first-class defenders.
However, Gallas has two fatal shortcomings that restrict him from becoming a world-class central defender, that is, he is very short-tempered in the game and he has a poor sense of position in defense! Often roof caving doesn’t say that he hasn’t realized it yet!
If there is the first weakness, most coaches of the giants may be able to bear it; But to add the second weakness, that is, to let Gallas play as a central defender, is to cheat properly.
In Zhuang Ge’s previous life, Wenger himself didn’t see this point. Ranieri and Mourinho both realized this point. The tinker had to let him rotate with desailly and Terry because he didn’t have a more reliable choice. And the madman with money and food in his hand would rather press Gallas at left-back than let him play central defender
Now Spalletti has Van Bitten, Sylvester and Cordoba in his hands. Although Sylvester occasionally slips the number in the game, he is much more reliable in the position of the central defender than Vigara-he is not focused at most, that is, he has a weak sense of position when he occasionally pits so many times in defense. That is to pit his own generation.
Not everyone can make a world-class central defender by chiellini.
Zhuang Ge believes that Spalletti will not let Gallas play the central defender position, right? After all, he is an Italian coach after all, and he is still very strict with the team’s defense
