"Good Antonio, you mean to ensure that the promotion foundation should be shown to these young people as much as possible?" Ranieri asked him that he must confirm this point. In Italian football, it is a necessary skill for Italian local coaches to conform to the boss’s ideas as much as possible on the basis of ensuring the results.

"Hehe Claudio (Ranieri), don’t worry that I will command blindly. After all, I also have an international A-level coach certificate." Zhuang Ge smiled and took out the certificate and showed it to Ranieri.
Ranieri felt a little relieved when he saw this card. What he feared most when he was a coach was amateur command. For example, Benitez forced Ancelotti to arrange double strikers later, regardless of whether such tactics were suitable for the team. Six years later, Abramovich forced Shevchenko into the established team, which was not suitable for Chelsea’s tactical body. As a result, Mourinho was dissatisfied
"I have just looked at the position and technical characteristics of these players. I can see Antonio, you imagine that this Fiorentina team will play in a 4-4-2 formation with a small diamond-shaped midfield without an avant-garde. This will indeed enhance the defensive strength of the team in the middle, but at the same time it will weaken the offensive and defensive ability of the wingers." Ranieri boldly expressed his opinion
"The wing attack is assisted by the full-back, and the offensive player in the middle and front court pulls the edge to defend three well-defended midfielders, who have the ability to insert and assist the full-back."
"Antonio, you mean not to stick to the division of position. A full-back can attack as a winger or play as a full-back when defending." Ranieri unconsciously picked his eyebrows. He had never tried this tactic before. "This is a bold idea that reminds me of the Dutch offensive and defensive."
"This tactical system is really born out of michels’s offensive and defensive thinking." Can Zhuang Ge admit this? Can he say that European teams will play like this after more than ten years? Later, Zhuang Ge sorted out his tactical thoughts according to the memory of later generations and pre-knowledge these days and told Ranieri everything.
"Emphasize the player’s body running and overall rushing to focus on training the player’s awareness of one foot out of the ball; In the process of ball, the triangle ball is matched with the main ball; Florence wants to build a team as a whole, not a single player. This is the future. Florence will never change its tactical policy. "Zhuang Ge set the tone for the general direction of the team’s tactics." Of course, the specific tactical details need Claudio. Don’t forget our old Italian chain defense when you arrange your own training. "
"Ha ha, don’t worry. How can an Italian coach not pay attention to defense?" Ranieri laughed and said that chain defense is a compulsory course for every Italian coach.
However, if this kind of improved chain defense based on overall grabbing and body running is completely formed, I am afraid it will be even more horrible.
"One more thing, at present, our team has batistuta at the front, and the core of the organization is effenberg. These two players have the ability to take on the team’s offensive weight, but in terms of defense, I hope to introduce one player who is best to fight when he is a year old. After all, these players are too young to be introduced. tommasi has not played in the professional league. birindelli, giuliano giannichedda and Giunti have played in the junior league for less than a season. They need to adapt to the rhythm of the second-division competition."
"Well, I think you talked about me, Claudio. Do you have any players who are suitable for this tactical system? I will contact Hercule (Poirot), the head of the transfer department, who is responsible for bringing the players we need to the team. "
It is added here that before the end of 1995, that is, before the implementation of the Bosman Act, players did not say anything about their transfer destination. Generally speaking, if a player wants to transfer to another team and introduce this player, the club must pay for the transfer to satisfy the other side, otherwise the player will leave even if the contract expires (please refer to the Bosman Act for details); And if the club wants to sell a player and the team has the ability to bring him in, then the player can also transfer. The famous case is Dunga (who moved from Florence to pescara in 1992). Unless he is a superstar like Roberto Baggio and baresi, no one dares to sell them to a lower-level team without their consent.
Before the implementation of the Bosman Act, European football players were in a very bad situation, and most of them decided their own destiny, which was the opportunity to sing a song.
"Turin midfielder Keus or Napoli midfielder crippa" Ranieri thought about it and gave his own advice.
"What don’t buy a lesbian? Naples should not block this transaction. "Zhuang Ge suddenly wanted to take an examination of Kaolanelli on a whim.
"But Lala is a member of the national team and will probably participate in the World Cup in 2008. If he is allowed to play in Serie B for one year, it will not only make him lose his position in the national team, but also make him hate Florence for the loss," Ranieri explained. "But Keus and crippa are different. Sacchi is a stubborn man, and he also believes that the combination of albertini and dino baggio, Juventus Kong Di and Inter Milan Berti are newcomers, and Keus and crippa Gen, who are not dominant in age, are not likely to enter the national team."
"Good analysis. Welcome to Florence Claudio," said Zhuang Gelanelli with applause.
"I am also very happy to coach Florence Antonio."
Chapter 5 Transfer Workers
The specific tactical details were handed over to Ranieri Club Department and three general managers. At the same time, Poirot was informed to ask Turin and Naples about the price of Keus and crippa. Zhuangge needed to listen to the report once a day, and the team cleaning work was proceeding in an orderly manner.
At this time, Zhuang Ge finally ushered in a rare rest when he was listening to Poirot’s report on the team’s cleaning.
"At present, the team cleaning work is going well, and many Serie A teams are happy to bring in our players. At present, we have obtained a total of 10 thousand dollars by selling players, the largest of which is that Brian Laudrup transferred to Milan and he paid 40 thousand dollars."
"Very good, well done" Zhuang Ge nodded approvingly and expressed satisfaction at being able to earn so many transfers.
In this era, the transfer was not as horrible as it was later. In 1992, Diego Maradona transferred to Seville, and the transfer cost was 750,000 US dollars. At present, Roberto Baggio, Viali and lentini have broken the transfer of 10,000 US dollars. Now the transfer of top stars in this era is only a few million US dollars.
"And Napoli, crippa marked a price of $250,000, and Turin directly refused our price."
"Then give up Keus and take crippa." Zhuang Ge thought about it and thought that it might be better to have such a player with championship experience in the team (crippa won the UEFA Cup in 9 seasons and the Serie A in 99 seasons in Naples). Besides, the 2-year-old crippa is currently in the golden age of his career, and his playing style is very tough, and his interception ability and running ability are excellent, which can just lead these young people in the team.
"The next step is the introduction of our target players." Poirot turned the page in his hand and continued to report himself. "toldo, Gwadar, Pesoto, iuliano, birindelli, tommasi, Giunti, giuliano giannichedda, Inzaghi, vieri and Montera have all agreed to join Felicano. We will discuss the contract treatment with our club for Dibiagio and Corini. We are currently negotiating with two clubs about their transfer."
"It’s going well, Hercule. You’re doing well. You’d better get all the transfer teams before the team training on July 2 nd. There are many newcomers this year, so you need enough time to run in."
"Ok, I will finish all the transfer work as soon as possible" After the report, Poirot immediately said goodbye to Zhuang Ge and turned away from the office to continue to deal with the unfinished transfer. Zhuang Ge continued to sit in his boss’s chair and enjoy his leisure time. The boss needs to grasp a big development direction of the club and finalize the signing of the team. Just leave other things to his subordinates to do.
Florence fans have already learned from media reports that the club has sold many main players in the season, and they also understand this situation. After all, no player who has the strength to stay in Serie A is willing to return to play in the lower leagues. At the same time, the fans are ecstatic. It is the team’s two foreign AIDS who decided to stay in Florence in this "most difficult time in Florence".
"Gabriel (batistuta) and Stefan (effenberg) will definitely return to Serie A in our year!" This is what a fanatical fan said when interviewed by Gazzetta dello Sport reporter in Florence, which also represents the hearts of most fans.
At the same time, fans are also waiting to see if the new boss can be in trouble and what changes Florence will bring.
July 1 ST is the curtain day of the European transfer market. During the period when Zhuang Ge was waiting for the transfer period, an important event happened in Italian football. The protagonist was Naples.
After Naples introduced Diego Maradona with a world record of 40,000 US dollars in 1995, it spent a lot of money for many years. The "king of the ball" recruited helpers Giordano, Calvalle, Alemao and careca … These players led Naples to usher in the most glorious period of the team’s history and won many championships, including 9 seasons of UEFA Cup, 2 league titles, 1 Italian Cup and 1 Italian Super Cup.
However, with Diego Maradona’s departure from Seville and Naples last summer, the club’s financial crisis appeared, and in June this year, Naples even reached the point where French employees paid their salaries normally.
The dilemma of Naples alarmed the Italian Football Association, which warned Naples that if the team was still in debt before the season, it would disqualify Naples from participating in Serie A last season.
So the names of the stars massimo crippa, gianfranco zola, careca and others in the Naples selling team all appeared in the transfer news, and the foundation of Naples has been dug up.
Similarly, a large number of stars have left Florence but have not received this degree of attention, mainly because they have been demoted to sell stars, which is an inevitable choice. When the fans are psychologically prepared, the attention will naturally be much smaller.
So when the summer transfer door, the biggest attention of fans is not which big-name star Milan or Juventus have brought in, but a large number of players have fled from Naples.
Diego Maradona, the king of gianfranco zola, has scored 24 league goals in Naples in the last two years, and he was paid by Parma.
Careca, winner of the Silver Boot Award in the 1999 World Cup, was the last of the "Three South American Heroes" in Naples that year, and announced that he had just established the J League to join the Cypress Sun God Club.
To the surprise of many fans, massimo crippa, the main player in Napoli’s heyday, was relegated to Serie B, Florence, and bought Naples at a high price of 30 thousand dollars. A senior official who did not want to disclose his name said in an interview that crippa would move to Florence, which was far higher than other competitors’ 30 thousand dollars, which played a decisive role because others were unwilling to crippa to pay for this huge transfer
In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, Florence fans expressed their satisfaction with this. "Massimo is a champion player and his arrival will greatly improve the defensive quality of the team. We are satisfied with the club’s ambition."
Then on the second day of the transfer market, that is, July 2, Florence officially announced several transfer news.
Francesco Toldo, the main goalkeeper of ravenna season, transferred 10 thousand dollars. In the new season, toldo will appear the main goalkeeper of the team in Serie B;
Verona’s young goalkeeper Matteo Gwadar transferred $50,000 to replace toldo;
Aldo Felicano, the main central defender of Serie A team Cagliari, came to Florence at a high price of $20,000. Similarly, Luigi Di Biagio, the main midfielder of Serie A team Foggia Club, also came to the city for a transfer of $150,000; In Serie A, Sampdoria won’t play, and eugenio corini will transfer 60,000 US dollars to Viola;
Fiorentina brought in young defenders mark iuliano and gianluca pessotto from the same level team Bologna for a total of 90,000 US dollars. At the same time, we also bought two young teenagers, alessandro birindelli and Vincenzo Montella, from Empoli for 30 thousand dollars, so that Empoli people agreed to release them;
Yusola midfielder Giuliano Grazioli, Perugia midfielder Derrick Giunti, Verona midfielder damiano tommasi, Albino striker filippo inzaghi Pisa striker christian vieri and others spent a total of 70,000 US dollars in Florence to introduce these players because they were young and didn’t play very well.
According to the survey, Florence fans are happy that the team can bring in crippa, Di Biagio, Filicano, Corini and other reinforcements, which shows the club’s ambition to return to Serie A as soon as possible. At the same time, fans also said that they will take a wait-and-see attitude towards the team’s introduction of some young players from lower-level leagues.
At this time, Zhuang Ge is consulting the club’s budget for next season in the chairman’s office.
After getting the financial report, Zhuang Ge found that the club only kept the balance of payments in these transfers, and sold the players for 10,000 US dollars, while it also spent 9.95 million US dollars to introduce the players in large quantities. In the aspect of club expenditure, there has been a sharp drop in the season salary of some teams; In terms of income, the two most important parts of the team, namely, the relegation of the team and the ticket income, have been greatly reduced.
"Well, if there is no family capital injection this time, it will probably lose $40,000 this season … It seems that the impact of the team’s demotion on on the club’s income is more serious than expected. If it is not for kenyon’s sponsorship, it is estimated that it will lose more." Zhuang Ge thought with a headache.
Chapter 6 Marseille match-fixing case and its reflection
Just as most teams in Europe are preparing to have a big fight in the summer, a major event happened in European football. The new European Champions Cup winner, the French first-division football overlord Marseille Club, was suspected of bribing the opposing players to play fake matches in a Ligue 1 match last season!
The case of match-fixing was immediately made public by reporters. This is the story.
