Episode [031]: The Three Future Football Centers
In addition to Luca Toni, Zhong Cheng has three goals.
The first target is a potential center from Germany, a big center with a height of 189cm and 85kg.
This is a standard center forward.
His technical characteristics are comprehensive, a typical point-grabbing center, his off-ball running ability is very good, he can always appear in the most dangerous position, and his shooting skills are not too bad , Of course, the shooting skills at this stage still need to be improved.
He is tall and strong, with strong confrontation ability, and his speed is not slow, with a certain impact.
His left and right feet are comprehensive and can play a fulcrum role.
However, his shortcomings are also very obvious. He is still too immature, his shooting skills need to be improved, and his ability to grasp opportunities also needs to be improved. The most important thing is that his skills are very rough, he is simply a rough brother.
He has almost no ability to attack alone, and his one-on-one ability is not strong.
And the ability to control and pass the ball is not very strong and needs to be improved.
This is a center with obvious advantages and disadvantages, but he has the potential to become the world's top center. Moreover, in Zhong Cheng's memory, this future will also become the world's top center.
In the future, he has a super ability to run off the ball and grab points, and he can be regarded as a pie-eating center.
This person is the future neutral center Mario Gomez of the German national team!
In July 1985, Gomez was born in Riedlingen, a small town in southwestern Germany. At a young age, he showed a sincere love for football and joined the youth club in his hometown at the age of 15. At the age of 16, Gomez joined the Stuttgart youth team and began his life in the Swabian youth academy.
In 2003, Gomez, who was only 18 years old, landed in the Bundesliga for the first time and put on the Stuttgart jersey. But after only playing once, he was sent to the Stuttgart second team, which hit him hard.
However, in his first season back with the second team, he made 19 appearances and scored 6 goals. He performed very well and made the Stuttgart fans remember him.
In the 2004-2005 season, Gomez represented Stuttgart's second team in the second season. She played a total of 24 times for the team and contributed 15 goals. And in the later period, he was promoted to the first team by the head coach of the first team Mathias Sammer. He has made eight appearances in the Bundesliga this season, and he has gained a foothold in the Stuttgart first team.
Last season, Mario Gomez was Stuttgart's backup center, he was Thomasson and Liu Boya's backup, but hated Mathias Sammer's trust, and played 30 games off the bench in the Bundesliga times, but each time he came off the bench was not long, but he still scored 6 goals and 3 assists this season, and scored 2 goals in the UEFA Cup, performing well.
Zhong Cheng handed the information in his hand to Rogers and Di Matteo beside him, and asked, "What do you think of him?"
Rogers and Di Matteo browsed carefully, then looked up at each other and nodded slightly.
To be honest, they really admired Zhong Cheng's eyes, and they found another good seed, and this person just made his debut in the Bundesliga, so Zhong Cheng came faster than everyone else.
Rogers said: "This person has obvious advantages and disadvantages. After he came to our Leeds United, he may not have the high scoring efficiency of Klaas, but his characteristics are more suitable for us. He has a certain speed when counterattacking. Drag us back, he has body and height in positional battles, the most important thing is his ability to grab points, I think we can introduce him!"
Di Matteo nodded slightly, agreeing with Rogers, but he still said: "However, I don't think he can afford our Leeds United's striker in the new season, because we are going to participate in the UEFA Champions League. A center forward who has proven himself and is guaranteed to score goals. Our task this season is very heavy, and Mario Gomez is still a bit unsatisfactory!"
Yes, Di Matteo is still optimistic about Mario Gomez, but he thinks Mario Gomez is still worse as Leeds United's starting center forward.
Zhong Cheng frowned slightly. If this one can't be the starting center forward of Leeds United, then the latter two are unlikely.
Zhong Cheng pondered for a while, and then said: "I don't think there is such a problem, because when Huntelaar came to our Leeds United in the early days, who would have thought that Huntelaar could carry our Leeds United striker, And grow into a generation of strikers?"
Di Matteo froze for a moment, then nodded, expressing his understanding.
Zhong Cheng also said: "Of course, the English Championship is different from the English Premier League and the UEFA Champions League. Klass has a good life. He has adapted and improved during the English Championship. If Mario Gomez joins us, He will not have this adaptation period, he will face such a high-intensity game as soon as he comes up."
This is exactly what Di Matteo is more worried about.
To be honest, Di Matteo hopes to introduce one of Ruud van Nistelrooy and Luca Toni. These two are prolific center forwards who have proven themselves. When they come to Leeds United, that is the goal protection.
Zhong Cheng picked up the second document in his hand, and he glanced at it roughly.
This center forward has a height of 193cm and a weight of 80kg. He is a tall center forward. He is a little lighter now, but he is very strong and has good confrontation ability.
The technical characteristics of this one also have obvious advantages and disadvantages.
His advantage is that he is tall, strong and has a strong impact. But he is not bulky, has a certain speed, good foot skills, dribbling ability, and few dribbling mistakes, can dribble the ball, and has a good threat.
At the same time, his shooting skills are very good, and his header attack power is very strong. He is very experienced in judging the placement of high balls. He is good at blocking positions and is good at grabbing points with headers.
Another point, what he is better at is to attack from behind.
His disadvantage is that his passing ability is slightly worse, and his post-up ability is also insufficient, and his ability to create opportunities is also limited.
Generally speaking, he is a point-grabbing center forward who can keep up with the counterattack or switch to positional warfare.
The player's name is Edin Dzeko, born on March 17, 1986. Dzeko was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. At the age of 6, he and his family experienced wars throughout the country.
He played football at a young age and his whole family supported him. He now belongs to the Bosnia-Herzegovina team Te Pulitzer. He played for this team in the first half of last season and played 13 times without scoring. Then in the middle of the season, he was loaned to the Labe River Club. In the second half, he played 15 times and scored 6 goals.
This season, he returned to his own club Te Pulitzer, but this club seems to want to keep Dzeko in their club for next season's game.
In Zhong Cheng's memory, Edin Dzeko is still very strong. He won the Bundesliga Golden Boot in later generations, and he helped Wolfsburg to win the Bundesliga championship.
Moreover, in Zhong Cheng's memory, it seems that at the end of next season, Dzeko will transfer to Bosnia and Herzegovina and join the Wolfsburg team in Germany.
At this time, if Zhong Cheng makes a move, he should be able to win Edin Dzeko, and it will be very cheap.
Zhong Cheng handed the information in his hand to Rogers and Di Matteo.
Zhong Cheng knows that this player is likely to cause a lot of controversy, and Rogers and Di Matteo should not see the potential of this person.
Sure enough, after getting the list, Rodgers and Di Matteo just frowned, and their expressions were very bad. They didn't know why Zhong Cheng fell to the ground and fell in love with such a player. This player seemed to have no advantages other than his tall stature.
Yes, in the present, Edin Dzeko is still unknown.
Even Edin Dzeko is not the kind of star of hope that attracts everyone's attention, and there are no European giants who have had scandals with him. If Zhong Cheng hadn't handed them this information today, they wouldn't even know there was such a player in world football.
The two looked at each other again, and both saw the surprise in the other's eyes.
At this time, Rogers did not directly deny Zhong Cheng. Because Zhong Cheng's vision of young players is absolutely against the sky, because the young players he likes all have good performances, and Pique, Ribery, Huntelaar and Zhong Zheng have emerged. The super genius Edin Dzeko and the others have never heard of, but no one can guarantee that he will not become the next Huntelaar!
Because two years ago, who knew Ribery?
Perhaps, in Zhong Cheng's eyes, this person is the next Franck Ribery!
Rogers looked up, Su Aircraft Carrier stared at Zhong Cheng closely, and said, "Boss, are you really optimistic about this player named Dzeko?"
Zhong Cheng is very satisfied with the reactions of Rogers and Di Matteo, it is already very good that they did not question him directly. If other assistant coaches could really argue with Zhong Cheng head-on, why would they ask Zhong Cheng for his opinion?
Zhong Cheng said: "This is a center forward with great potential. He may not be as good as Chelsea's Didier Drogba, nor can he reach the level of Van Nistelrooy, but he will definitely become one of the best centers in football in the future. , in the position of high center forward, he can at least reach the top ten, and he should be able to be almost the same as Mario Gomez in front of him!"
Di Matteo and Rogers kept nodding. It seemed that Zhong Cheng valued this guy very much. And Zhong Cheng said a future center in the top ten, so Mario Gomez can also make it into the top ten? Then both of them should be brought in!
They believed in Zhong Cheng's vision, but they were still a little worried.
Zhong Cheng saw it, and said with a slight smile. Then we'll put him aside first. look at the next one! Both Rogers and Di Matteo nodded immediately, indicating that they knew.
Zhong Cheng picked up the third document.
The center player is not very tall, only 184cm, and weighs only 71kg.
This is not a high center, but he has his own unique personality.
He has many advantages. In terms of physical fitness, although his height is not very high, his body is still relatively strong, not to say that he is strong. It's that he has good confrontation ability, can carry people, and can complete accurate shots under high-pressure defense.
Moreover, his speed is very fast, his running ability is very good, and his physical fitness is beyond the charts, commonly known as running immortal!
Moreover, he is relatively flexible, his explosive power is also very good, and his physical fitness is very, very good.
