Chapter Eight Hundred and Ninety Seventh Local Tyrants Burn Money Flow
Why does Yang Huan have such strong self-confidence?
p>Of course not for no reason.
The reason why he is confident is because the teams under the Miracle Football Group have performed well in the European arena this season, which has given him quite a big surprise and also given him enough self-confidence.
In the UEFA Champions League group stage, although Atletico Madrid was in the same group as Juventus, Olympiacos and Malmo, Simeone's team won the first place in the group without any risk, and steadily qualified for the round of 16. .
Southampton was safe and sound. They scored four consecutive victories in the first four rounds of the group stage. They won the top spot in the group ahead of schedule, and then played with a full substitute lineup, but they also got one win and one draw. grades.
Not only that, but Southampton is also the team with the best offense and strongest defense in the group stage.
In the six group matches, they conceded only one goal, but scored 21 goals. They were the team with the most goals in the group stage and won the unanimous appreciation and affirmation of everyone.
There are even many professional commentators who believe that after Southampton sold Harvey Martinez, the defensive core, and Azpilicueta, they can rely on Varane, Nastasic, La The new generation of players such as Porter, Luke Shaw, David Alaba, Chambers and Danilo have created such a defensive system, which is enough to prove the rigor and maturity of the Saints' entire tactical system.
And the progress of this new generation of players is even more amazing at Southampton's training ability.
However, what is a little surprising is that in the group stage, there was another team that also conceded only one goal in six games.
But not Real Madrid, nor Barcelona, nor Juventus, but Monaco led by Koeman.
In this season's league, the Ligue 1 giants have never fallen from the leader's position since they defeated Paris Saint-Germain and reached the top of the league leader.
Not only that, Koeman's team's performance in the Champions League is very impressive.
Scoring seven goals in six group matches, his offensive ability is not outstanding, but he only conceded one goal. This defensive ability is amazing, and the amazing record of winning all six games also makes Monaco stable Entered the round of sixteen with the first place in the group.
It can be said that Koeman's team is the biggest dark horse in the Champions League group stage this season.
And you know, Porto, Leverkusen and Zenit St. Petersburg,
Although they are not rich teams, their strength is not weak at all. Monaco can stand out from the competition of these three teams, and its strength is convincing.
On the contrary, as a well-known black shop in Europe, Porto has performed poorly in the Champions League this season. It has six games, one win, two draws and three losses.
But what surprised Yang Huan most was from Basel, Switzerland.
Basel met Real Madrid and Liverpool in the group stage, and the strength of these two teams is not bad at all.
Surprisingly, Basel beat Rodgers' Liverpool in the group stage, finished second in the group, and steadily qualified for the top 16 of the Champions League, knocking Liverpool out.
This was beyond Yang Huan's imagination.
In addition, Monaco's young player Embolo, who is on loan in Basel, performed well in the Champions League group stage. Although he is not the main force of the team, he still scored two goals and contributed an assist, which is quite dazzling.
The Portuguese Super League team Benfica also performed well in the UEFA Champions League group stage, with six wins, four wins and two draws, firmly qualifying for the first place in the group.
As for Ajax, they also realized the plan made before the game, that is, under the strong shadow of Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, they won the third place in the group and moved to the Europa League.
Belgian powerhouse Anderlecht was also under attack from Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal, finishing third in the group and moving to the Europa League.
The only team that failed to continue to compete in the European arena was Sparta Prague in the Czech Republic. They were at the bottom of the group stage and could only be eliminated in the end.
Eight teams participated in the UEFA Champions League group stage, five teams qualified for the group stage and entered the top 16, two moved to the Europa League, and one was eliminated. Such a record is not bad.
Not only in the UEFA Champions League, but in the Europa League, Inter Milan won five wins and one tie in the group stage, remained unbeaten, won the first place in the group, and performed very well.
By the way, in the draw ceremony of the Europa League, Inter Milan drew the Celtics of the Scottish Super League, Ajax drew Legia Warsaw, Anderlecht It was the Dynamo Moscow team that won the Russian Super League.
Judging from the current situation, except for Anderlecht, which is a little suspenseful, Inter Milan and Ajax are very likely to advance smoothly.
As for the draw for the knockout round of the UEFA Champions League, Southampton drew Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1.
The Saints obviously failed to continue the luck of the lottery in the group stage. As soon as they came, they encountered the strongest team among the eight second-placed teams in the group, so this game also attracted much attention.
Not only because of the Saints and Paris Saint-Germain, but also because Ibrahimovic reunited with his old club.
And Basel met Benfica in the draw, and they fought against each other. Although it was sad, at least one team could successfully reach the quarter-finals, while Monaco encountered Arsenal, and Atletico Madrid met Leverkusen.
Judging from the lottery situation, these games will be tough battles, especially Monaco, I am afraid it will be difficult to get a little bit of cheap from Wenger, but in any case, Koeman's team is surprising enough.
Yang Huan is extremely satisfied with the outstanding performance of these teams this season. Naturally, he is full of strong confidence in the future development of Miracle Football Group.
But also because of their outstanding performance in the European arena, the players of these teams have all been poached.
Yang Huan's attitude towards this is as calm as ever, that is, there are no items not for sale, as long as he is willing to pay.
That's why Yang Huan agreed to Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur so readily, expressing his willingness to sell Blind, De Bruyne and Abu Bakar, because to be honest, neither Inter Milan nor Hamburg can keep people.
Instead of forcing them to stay, it is better to simply sell them at a high price as soon as possible to cash in. While stabilizing other players in the team, they can use the transfer income to strengthen the team's signings and steadily improve the team's competitiveness.
For example, when Inter Milan sells Blind, they must keep De Vrij, because the Dutch central defender is too important.
As for De Bruyne and Abu Bakar, it is expected that they will not be able to keep them, but after selling them, Yang Huan is determined to do a big job, which is to further upgrade the lineup of Hamburg and Inter Milan.
This is not surprising at all.
Just like Inter Milan, why does Klopp always choose Khedira to partner with Alan or Nainggolan?
But when playing against Juventus, did you choose Blind as the midfielder?
In fact, the answer is very simple, that is to choose the previous combination, which has strong defensive ability, but weak organizational ability and passing ability.
You can choose Blind to play as a defensive midfielder. Although he has organizational and passing skills, he is poor in maneuvering and running coverage.
Therefore, Inter Milan will always choose between a dilemma in terms of midfield configuration.
However, if De Bruyne is sold, the team will have ample funds. While retaining this group of players in the team, it will strengthen signings in the midfield position. At least one player with unique qualities must be introduced. , Let Inter Milan's midfielder to a higher level.
Everyone knows that such a player is not cheap at all, at least 30 million euros.
The same thing happened with Hamburg.
Abubakar is good, but not irreplaceable.
On the contrary, there are many options for players who can fill Abu Bakar's position at the forward position.
However, the team needs to strengthen signings in the midfield.
Klassey and Baddeley have indeed performed well this season. Among them, Klassey is still young and has great potential in the future, but Baddeley has already been capped, and his level of strength is just like this.
Hamburg is now at the top of the Bundesliga for the first time in years after beating Bayern Munich.
However, in this position, Hamburg only stayed for two weeks.
Before the winter break, Hamburg's performance fluctuated, and now it has fallen to the second place in the Bundesliga.
However, the team is quite confident about keeping the top four in the league.
In other words, next season, Hamburg will play in the Champions League.
Through the performance of the past period of time, it is difficult to see that the midfield combination of Klassey, Baddeley and Weigel is indeed impressive, but it is mainly in terms of potential, that is, the combat power is not outstanding.
One thing that needs to be considered in particular is that the better Hamburg performs, the more teams there will be. When facing Hamburg, they will adopt a defensive strategy.
But Hamburg's strength lies in the two wings of the frontcourt, and in the middle of the midfield, it is lacking.
In other words, Hamburg is now overly dependent on the two wings, and if they want to further strengthen the team, they have to invest in the middle.
Tuchel has tried Januzaj to play in the middle of the midfield, but the effect is relatively mediocre. The Belgian is talented, but in Tuchel's tactics, he is not very suitable to play in the middle.
Therefore, if Abubakar can be sold and an offensive strength in the middle of the midfield can be introduced instead, it will definitely be an upgrade for the Hamburg team as a whole.
Moreover, whether it is Yang Huan or the Saints scouting team, they all believe that the current Hamburg defense needs an experienced veteran to lead the team. Therefore, what Yang Huan means is to sell Alderweireld and introduce An experienced veteran with Jedvaj and Tah.
These two players, as well as Emre Can, are the future of Hamburg's defense!
Sometimes, running a team is like this, changing tactics all the time.
When Hamburg's goal was still in the top four of the league, Klassey and Baddeley met the team's needs.
But this season's performance is so eye-catching, the team has to adjust their goals. Next season, on the one hand, they must keep the top four in the league, and on the other hand, they must play in the Champions League and fight on two fronts. This requires further strengthening the team's strength and introducing higher-level players. player of.
Otherwise, how can the strength of the team be improved?
Also like Monaco, the team played so well in the group stage, completely relying on the unbreakable defense, but the team's offense is a mess, and there is only Mitrovic on the front line.
When the Serbian center fights on multiple lines, is physically fatigued, or is in poor condition, the team's offense is in trouble.
The head coach Ronald Koeman has completely lost trust in Benzi. The team will loan Brazilian striker Kennedy from Southampton after the winter break transfer market opens, and has decided to introduce teenager Ponzi from Argentina. Cyprus, and Serbian teenager Luka Jovic.
But in the summer transfer, Monaco will definitely introduce a powerful striker to further strengthen the team's strength.
Whether it is Monaco, or Hamburg, or Inter Milan, or even Southampton and Atletico Madrid, if you want to sign, the first and most important thing is money.
Local tyrants like Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham Hotspur are obviously not the way to go.
Living within our means is the most pragmatic approach.
Therefore, it is in line with the positioning of the team to buy first and sell first.
The difference lies in whether the players bought in can enhance the competitiveness of the team.
For this, Yang Huan is very confident.
Because, he has already targeted several players in the transfer market.
