Chapter 205 Ebb Tide (15/21)

That night, the media all over Italy reported Lazio's special triumph. m

Some media praised Chang Sheng's courage and courage. In many bloody conflicts among fans, Lazio's "uneducable" fans are indispensable.

But Chang Sheng dared to call them idiots in front of them, and after giving them a lesson, he left swaggeringly, and the uneducable faction didn't take any drastic actions...

It's incredible!

Some media also analyzed what Chang Sheng said, and had to admit that although he spoke a little arrogantly, what he said basically made sense.

With Lazio's current financial situation, they have to rely on selling players to pay off their debts. It's a fact, nothing to attack.

Moreover, this debt was left by Craniotti. Now that Craniotti went to the prison to pick up soap, he let the latecomers continue to repay the debt. It's somewhat unfair to accuse Lazio of being stingy just like that.

This debt has been increasing under Craniotti, but after Lotito became the club chairman, it has been decreasing year by year. This is to the credit of Lotito.

Selling Falcao is also to repay the debt, which is very different from Udinese.

Voices of sympathy, understanding, and support for the Lazio club began to appear in the media.

This made Pacheco grit his teeth with hatred. Today he is also among the media that "welcome" Lazio. When Chang Sheng went to those extreme fans and called them "idiots", how much he hoped for those barbarians He rushed up and knocked Chang Sheng to the ground, and then stepped on millions of feet...

It's a pity that Chang Sheng taught the extreme fans a lesson in public, and then walked away unscathed!

That group of fans is so underwhelming! Often right, they're a bunch of fucking idiots! Be Chang's words were so easy to say that he was speechless!

If Chang Sheng was facing me at the time, I would have made him speechless!

Pacheco is writing now. A new column is being tapped on the keyboard.

He couldn't let this kind of sympathy, understanding, and support for Lazio spread, and he refuted Chang Sheng's "nonsense" in a high-profile manner! He wants to let those extreme fans know that they are doing the right thing!

Why rely on selling players to pay off debts...then there is no need to sell the team's leading shooter!

You sell other substitute players or the main players who are not in important positions...you sell the main shooter! That's irreplaceable, okay?

※ ※ ※

Pacheco's column soon appeared in Gazzetta dello Sport.

He categorically refuted everything Chang Sheng said to those fans.

The core idea can be summed up in one sentence: "Even if it is to repay the debt, there is no need to sell the main shooter. The main shooter is an irreplaceable figure in the team. Selling him has his symbolic meaning, which means that your team Lack of core competitiveness. There is an idiot who sells players at such a pace to pay off debts."

Chang Sheng ignored him, he knew that Pacheco was messing up Lazio's locker room.

And he has already said everything he should say, there is no need to bicker with Pacheco.

Most importantly, there are some things he can't say right now. It is impossible for him to say "only I am indispensable in this team" when Falcao is still in the team, right? It is also impossible for him to say "Falcao is the main shooter. But as long as I want, I can train more main shooters"...

So he was silent.

As for the press conference, after the scene at the airport, Chang Sheng felt that there was no need to hold it again.

Anyway, the purpose of the press conference was to say these things, to tell everyone that Lazio sold people out of helplessness. If it wasn't for Craniotti who left behind a lot of bad debts, how could we be so tight on food and clothing?

As a result, these words, because of an unexpected incident, he said to the group of extreme fans, and then spread them through the media. Everyone can see these words in newspapers, TV, and the Internet. He naturally didn't need to hold a press conference to repeat it.

I have said everything I should say. Those who can understand will understand, and those who cannot understand will be pulled down, and he will not kneel down and beg those people to understand.

The most important thing now is to prepare for the Champions League final.

Lazio's opponents in the Champions League final have been revealed.

As Chang Sheng knew, Manchester United eliminated Barcelona with a total score of 1:0 in two rounds. Into the Champions League final.

They were supposed to have an English civil war with Chelsea.

As a result, Chelsea was killed by Lazio.

The Champions League final will be held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on May 21, and there are still 20 days to go.

Chang Sheng is about to enter the days of watching videos day and night again.

※ ※ ※

Before the Champions League final, Lazio still has three league games to play. These three league games have nothing to do with the championship and victory or defeat.

Chang Sheng is purely training in those three games. Do a warm-up match to adjust the players' status for the next Champions League final.

at the same time. There is another important task. These three games are also opportunities to punish those disobedient players.

The plan to kill the chicken to show the monkey was officially launched.

In the second-leg semi-final against Chelsea, Rudy Gonzalez was still sitting on the coach's bench and recording very carefully, even though the result was irrelevant.

Which players are not acting normally, which players are absent-minded, which players seem to be preoccupied.

are on the list.

All players on the list must go to the reserve team to report.

Before the training started, Chang Sheng read out the list.

After reading the roster, he said to those whose names were called: "You are welcome in the reserves, lads. Since you're not willing to give your all for a first-team victory, I can only assume you want to. Team. Go to the reserve team to report, go now. I'll give you a week to reflect, if you still don't have any repentance, I don't mind completely excluding you from the Champions League final. This is the life of your life Oh, the first Champions League final!"

Then the players whose names were called went to the reserves with a grimace.

This list includes many of the main players. Although in the second round against Chelsea, Chang Sheng adopted a rotation and replaced a large number of substitutes. However, the fighting spirit of the substitute players is much stronger than that of the main players. So they are all working hard, but the main players think more.

Benzema is on this list.

The French are inherently undisciplined and have low discipline. So if there is any bad thing, Benzema is always indispensable.

Chang Sheng also knows Benzema's character, so he has always insisted on using a high-pressure policy against Benzema, using iron fists to deal with this talented but lacking in discipline player.

But Chang Sheng also knows that this is not a long-term solution. When Benzema's fame grows, he will always be unable to stand his way of dealing with children.

At that time, the contradictions will become more intense, and finally... turn each other into enemies.

The best way is to separate before the two parties completely turn their faces.

So this summer, Benzema will also have a great chance to leave the team. Not only does the club need him to leave, he wants to leave too.

With his young and promising achievements, there will definitely be countless wealthy families vying for him. It’s just that Falcao attracted attention and firepower for him some time ago, but Chang Sheng is very clear that Benzema’s agent has done a better job than Falcao’s agent-he never approached the club to discuss contract renewal at all. This does not mean that they will stay at ease until the contract expires.

On the contrary, this shows that they have already begun to plan a way out for Benzema.

Chang Sheng didn't feel regret or pity or anything, because he would also make a fortune from them, so that no one owed anyone.

※ ※ ※

In the thirty-sixth round of the league, Lazio played against Palermo at home, and everyone will find that many main players did not appear in the starting list, and they did not even make the squad.

This has not attracted people's attention, because Lazio has just played a Champions League semi-final, and it is normal for the main players to get a full rest.

Anyway, he also won the league championship, so it doesn't matter if there are players from the reserve team and the youth team.

Youth team players in the league do not need to register in advance, which is also conducive to the use of young players by clubs.

In the end, Lazio, who has been lacking in running-in, lost 1:2 to Palermo at home.

But no one cares.

At home, some fans still played slogans opposing Lotito and protesting the sale of Falcao, but such people are already in the minority.

Chang Sheng is right. Everyone knows the financial situation of the Lazio club, and there is still a debt of 100 million yuan.

If you don't sell players, do you want to sell the team?

Both Lotito and he are just kicking Cranioti, the "best chairman" they miss, to wipe his ass.

More Lazio fans supported the team, and they played more slogans at home to thank and celebrate Lazio for reaching the Champions League final.

It can be regarded as compensation for the regret that the Lazio players returned from victory, but did not enjoy the cheers and welcome at the airport.

"Thank you! You are the best!"

"I'm proud of you! Blue Eagle!"

"Make history! You made history!"

Some fans even put up slogans thanking Falcao, and the game broadcast also gave close-up shots.

"Thank you Tiger and good luck!"

After scoring a goal in the game, Falcao took off his jersey, rushed to the corner flag, knelt down and kissed the Olimpico turf affectionately.

Although he has only been in this team for two years. But in two years, it was Lazio who made him change from an unknown unknown to a famous super killer in Europe.

He broke out of the cocoon and became a butterfly here, soaring into the sky!

He loves this team, from the heart, without hypocrisy.

And when Falcao did so, the chants of "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!!" rang out again from the stands.

Seeing this scene, Chang Sheng knew that the adverse reaction caused by the early exposure of Falcao's transfer was rapidly fading away...
