Chapter 13 Adjustments to the Defense (106/136)

The transfer work will continue.

Before the end of the league, Changsheng hopes that the Lazio club can handle the transfer of most players. Especially in the domestic transfer in Italy, the Lazio club has an advantage over him, so he will not show up, and will be in charge of remote control.

As for the center back position, Chang Sheng only intends to keep Cotto, and everyone else has to be replaced. Except for Jose Passarella, Chang Sheng has to find someone from China.

In the central defender position, Chang Sheng already has many candidates.

The first thing he took aim at was the central defender Guglielmo Stendaldo who did join Lazio in the 2005-2006 season.

This season, he played for Perugia in Serie B. He is the team's main central defender and performed well.

If Lazio wants to buy him, it can not spend a penny. Because the time and space he was familiar with in Changsheng was a free transfer to Lazio.

Serie A team Lazio and Serie B team Perugia, which one to choose is self-evident.

Chang Sheng is not worried about losing Stendaldo.

After Stendhaldo arrives, he will be a useful addition to the team's defense.

The other central defender is Kribari. Chang Sheng wants to buy out directly, but it is not so easy. Udinese will never let Lazio get this player for free. So Chang Sheng intends to rent this player to fill his lineup.

If you rent it, the price you have to pay is much smaller.

Lazio has no money now, and both Chang Sheng and club chairman Lotito have to live on a tight budget and tighten their belts.

Another mid-back candidate is Hugo Campagnaro. The Argentinian-Italian dual national does not occupy the non-EU quota. And as an Argentine international in the future, he also has strength. But now it is very cheap, very cheap, and it should be done within one million euros.

But these are all substitute players. Changsheng needs a main central defender to partner with Jose Passarella.

After much deliberation, Chang Sheng thought of an old acquaintance.

※※※

After the nightmarish game of the 2001-2002 season, Francisco Pavon was sidelined until Queiroz arrived.

He just got his chance again.

So Pavon cherishes this opportunity very much. In that season, he played 29 times in the league and scored one goal. He also played six times in the Champions League, which can be regarded as a rare season in his career.

But the five-game losing streak at the end of the season completely defeated him.

Florentino simply blamed the team's rout on the poor performance of the defense, so Pavon was thrown into the sidelines again.

Last season he had just ten appearances in the league and none in the Champions League.

obviously. He no longer has a place at the Bernabeu.

The manager of the team, Valdano, even directly told Pavon that he has no future or future if he sheds tears in Real Madrid. If he is asked to find a new home immediately, the club will also find a suitable team for him. .

The young central defender named after Zidane never really bloomed, and just withered away.

Pavon even felt that he could only play in the second division team. Because his confidence is gone. He does not believe that he can still gain a foothold in the first division team.

No one expected that at this moment, Lazio suddenly invited him!

Although the Lazio club is a bit unsatisfactory in today's Serie A, it has to do its best to qualify for the UEFA Cup, but for many people. That's still a big team.

Pavon didn't expect that he could get the favor from Lazio.

Lazio want Pavon, but they don't want to pay the transfer fee. Because they have no money. They hope that the Real Madrid club can agree to allow Pavon to leave the team freely. After all, Pavon has not been doing well in Real Madrid in the past few years. When he was put on fire at the beginning, it was because of Real Madrid's policy that there was a problem. Real Madrid should compensate the other party a little no matter what. It's fine if you don't give Pavin a new contract, then don't stop him from pursuing new happiness.

The wealthy Real Madrid really don't care about such a small transfer fee. They also know that with Pavon's reputation and ability, it may be difficult to earn a satisfactory transfer fee now. Going to Lazio is also a destination for Pavon. After all, Spain is Pavon's sad place, maybe leaving Spain can relieve the demon in his heart?

Pavon also had the same idea, so he did not refuse Lazio's invitation.

Real Madrid played in this regard to show the strength of their wealthy club. They did not ask Lazio for a penny transfer fee, and gave Francisco Pavon, whose contract has not yet expired, to the Italian "Blue Eagle".

The two clubs agreed that after the end of this season, Pavon will go to Lazio to report.

Lazio and Pavon have signed a four-year contract.

※※※

Pavon was asked by Changsheng by name. But why did Chang Sheng choose a loser?

You must know that Pavon's current situation can almost be said to be caused by him alone.

He should also be very clear about Pavon's situation, why did he let Lazio buy Pavon?

Is it just because Pavon can be dug here for free and does not cost a transfer fee?

Obviously not.

In Chang Sheng's mind, Pavon will definitely be the main central defender in the initial stage.

He will join Jose Passarella in Lazio's Spanish centre-back duo.

Because in the winning tactics, the central defender is very important, and the requirements for the central defender are very high.

He requires the central defenders to have the ability to hold the ball, take the ball and pass the ball, not just require them to intercept frontally, defend against headers, and just be able to intercept and tackle.

His requirements for a central defender are similar to those of a midfielder.

In this way, Italy's traditional defenders are not very suitable.

In Rome, Chang Sheng encountered such a problem.

He had to spend a lot of training skills, especially special skills, to improve the passing ability of the central defender.

But the time is too short, the effect is not obvious. Then he was kicked out.

Now he will start a new challenge in Lazio.

Although Pavon lost his confidence, his physical fitness and ability are still there. In terms of psychological training, Chang Sheng is still confident.

He believes that under his careful training, Reyes can become brave, so what is Pavon?

※※※

After the New Year, Chang Sheng called his former assistants one by one to inform them that they had started working.

When he signed with the Lazio club, his assistants also chose Lazio to sign.

Assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez, tactical coach Guardiola. And fitness coach Elias Dominique.

These three were also fired by the Club of Rome after Chang Sheng was kicked out.

But they also received compensation, so life is no problem.

Now they all have to end their vacation and officially start working.

Because Changsheng has not officially settled in Lazio, it is impossible for them to go to Formello.

Everyone went to Changsheng's apartment to work.

Here, everyone carefully watches Lazio's videotapes of every game in the last two seasons. Then according to the different responsibilities, carry out different division of labor. For example, assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez and tactical coach Guardiola have to find out how to transform the team based on these game videos. For example, which position of the player does not meet the requirements, which position's tactical play needs to be adjusted, and how to arrange the training plan, this is their job.

The current work of physical coach Elias Dominique is a little easier. He has to formulate a physical training plan for the team, and get familiar with and understand the physical characteristics of each player by watching game videos. Which players are physically fit? Which players are physically weak? Which players have experienced a significant decline in physical fitness since the 70th minute? Which players can last until the 80th minute?

Although Changsheng intends to clean up. But always have a plan - in case the cleaning is unsuccessful and some players stay, then a physical training plan should be made for them, it is impossible to just give up.

Basically, watching game videos is to get as familiar with the team's tactical style and customary performance as possible. Learn about the characteristics of each player.

So that when they enter Lazio in the summer, they can familiarize themselves with the team as quickly as possible. This can save them time and allow the team's training to return to normal as soon as possible.

Changsheng wants to make a big splash in the new season, and they don't have time to waste on running-in the team.

In the same way, in addition to watching the current Lazio game video, several people also need to watch the game video of those target tasks on the Changsheng transfer list.

It's also for the purpose of getting to know them, being familiar with them, and doing the same training program.

※※※

Chang Sheng basically emptied Lazio at the central defender position, all of them were rookies. If Cotto can accept the salary cut request, it is not impossible to let him play as a substitute. But Chang Sheng felt that Cotto would definitely not accept this request.

So when the time comes, I have to figure out how to sell Cotto.

In the full-back position, Lazio now has two main full-backs ready-made, Odo and Zauri. But Chang Sheng needs to find a substitute for them.

Chang Sheng remembers that he was in Lazio's youth team, and there was a good young star Lorenzo De Silvestri.

This young right back is only under seventeen years old, but he can be promoted to the first team to receive his training, because it is meaningless for him to stay in the youth team, and Lazio's youth team coach is not his People, it is impossible to train the youth team according to his requirements. When he comes to the first team, he can at least let De Silvestri accept the training of his own team, which will help him adapt to his tactical requirements faster. If he is older, he can play for Lazio immediately without any adaptation period.

Just like La Masia players can often perform very well in the Barcelona first team.

This is what the system tradition does.

There is a right-back substitute, and Chang Sheng also has a candidate for the left-back substitute. That is Giovanni Pasquale, who has just been loaned to Siena by Inter Milan. Pasquale made his debut in the 2002-2003 season and became a star with high expectations. However, he had limited opportunities in Inter Milan. This season was loaned to Siena.

But it always failed to play out. After the end of this season, he will continue to be loaned out by Inter Milan and go to Parma.

Chang Sheng intends to take Pasquale's loan rights from Parma, and then decide whether to buy out his ownership based on his specific performance. And even if you buy it out, it won't cost much, so it's just stockpiling for speculation.

In the future, with Pasquale under his command, his value will increase no matter what.
