Chapter 609 Complaints

Selli is a bit picky when it comes to buying players, and is also slow to sell players. Many Trapani players have received interest from other clubs, but Trapani has no intention of selling, and the players have no intention of leaving.

For example, Maicon, who shined in the Champions League final, received invitations from Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but on the one hand Trapani was unwilling to let go, and Maicon did not want to leave. Even though the new head coach had not been determined before, Maicon said: "I am very happy here, and I hope to stay here!"

Many players want to stay not only because Trapani has proved that it is a strong team, but also because of money. Trapani's contract is very generous, Barcelona and Real Madrid can't increase much money, and staying to renew the contract is actually a better choice.

But some people will leave because they need more games, such as Jankulovski. The stingy Galliani couldn't handle Selli at all, and was unwilling to give up Pato, so he finally had to pay a high price of 18 million to buy Jankulovski, who was just 30 years old.

Hugo was very happy that the stingy Gabonese paid such a large sum of money. He told Udinese's small boss Pozzo that the price of champion players is more expensive than your civilian players. It cost 10 million to introduce Jankulovski from Udinese, and now it is still profitable after a few years. How can Hugo not be happy?

Mendes is also very satisfied with the deal, but now he has no players in Trapani at all, which is definitely not what he wants to see, so he is actively recommending his players to join. He recommended an old player of Trapani - Pepe.

Pepe did not play well in Trapani, and then Trapani sold him to Porto. However, Pepe has grown very fast in Porto in the past few years, attracting the attention of European giants. Mendes believes that Trapani can return to Trapani, but Pepe does not want to come back at all.

When he proposed this proposal, it was rejected by Seli. There is no doubt that Trapani does need a defender after De Las left, but it is not necessary. The team still has enough candidates now, and Seli also clearly realized that this deal will inevitably be slaughtered by Porto because they do not have a good relationship with Porto.

Sure enough, a tentative inquiry, Porto actually bullied Trapani's wealth and offered a high price of 40 million. Seli was almost angry. Mendes was completely unable to mediate the contradiction in the middle, so it was obviously impossible to introduce Pepe at this price.

Later, Pepe still transferred this summer and went to Real Madrid. Porto received 30 million euros. Seli believed that this deal was not a good deal for Real Madrid and was obviously overpriced.

…

On July 12, the entire Trapani team returned to the Pacheco training base and began preparations for the new season. It must be said that many players gained a lot of weight during a holiday. They had both honors and money, and laziness seemed to have become an unconscious behavior. Bielsa was very angry.

"Starting tomorrow, all the team members must eat and live at the training base. We will conduct a week-long closed training! No one is allowed to take leave!" Bielsa announced this decision with a cold face immediately after everyone completed the physical examination.

Compared with Ranieri, Bielsa obviously attaches more importance to the role of data. He is actually a video fanatic and a data collector. Therefore, the full-time data analysts of Opta are very useful here. Before Bielsa came, he didn't expect that Hugo had such a company. He had a lot of exchanges with Hugo on this.

The players naturally complained. Everyone is a little arrogant. Many people in this team don't like Ranieri very much. Because of the style problem, Ranieri is undeniably trusted by the players for a period of time, but later due to tactical reasons, the players were not in the same mind with him. If it weren't for the fact that Trapani's team had more old players, other teams would have fallen apart long ago. The team committee played a big role in the stability of the team.

There are many such stories in some teams. The head coach is sidelined by the players and the tactics are completely out of control. Trapani did not happen. Everyone expects the new coach to be able to meet everyone's wishes. When they first heard the name of Bielsa, many people were happy and suspicious. They were happy because everyone knew that Bielsa was a coach who advocated offense. Most of the team did not want the dull style of last season. They were suspicious because Bielsa had no European experience at all and did not let everyone trust him. The Argentines may have aspirations, but others must be like this.

As soon as he took office, he set such a cruel training method, which made everyone's energy not slow down. Of course, everyone was not happy.

Many players responded to the team committee and expressed their dissatisfaction. Tony and Kameni could only comfort everyone. New officials always have to make three fires when they take office. Let's see.

Victor was very dissatisfied. He had now legitimately moved out of the manor and bought a house with Sylvia. Today, after the physical examination, he went to the manor. Hugo had been living in the manor during this period. His way of expressing dissatisfaction was very simple, and he reported it directly to Hugo.

According to his idea, it was good enough that he didn't slap Bielsa in the face!

"You don't want this?! That's easy! You can apply for a transfer! You don't have to be bound by this if you go to other teams!" Hugo was not polite to his brother.

Victor has always been a coward in front of his brother. How dare he fart after hearing this!

"Go tell everyone that matters within the team are under the jurisdiction of Mr. Bielsa, and no one can disobey his orders! Do everyone think they are great?! The authority of the head coach in Trapani is inviolable! If you don’t want to obey, report it and leave as soon as possible!” Hugo told Victor.

The next day, Victor carried his daily necessities in despair and was the first to arrive at the training base. Sylvia cursed Hugo a lot.

Victor also called his teammates. Hugo was very serious. Don't resist, come to work quickly!

Bielsa has more cruel methods waiting for everyone. When everyone gathered at the training base again, assistant coach Bellizzo read out Bielsa's rules for closed training camps. No mobile phones are allowed, no Internet is allowed, and no late arrival or early departure is allowed...

There are many rooms in the training base, but the Internet is cut off in each room, there is no TV signal, and everyone's mobile phone has been confiscated.

It was also interesting for Bellizzo to collect mobile phones. He was the first to collect Victor's mobile phone. Victor reluctantly handed over his mobile phone, then Captain Tony, Vice Captain Kameni, etc., everyone was collected After all, Beckham has never seen such a strict head coach.

Obviously Bielsa has been scolded by the players for eighteen generations, but Victor doesn't dare to resist. What can they do? You can only give in temporarily.

It’s not like the players don’t have any amateur cultural activities. The gymnasium at the training base has been opened, with a basketball court and a table tennis room... Well, these are all means of fitness.

On the first night of his arrival, Bielsa convened a meeting with the players. He has not introduced himself in a serious way until now. He originally did not intend to introduce himself too much. For him, football is hard work.

"I'm not going to introduce myself too much! I'm here, I just hope to make progress together with everyone! Now each of you has a videotape in your hand. This is your work for these two nights! Go back to the room Please watch it carefully!" Each of the Trapani players had a box of videos in their hands.

"From now on, I ask everyone to devote themselves to training. The new season is no longer far away and there is very little time left for us. If we want to continue our glory, and you want to provide further, you must work hard! "

Bellizzo then announced the daily schedule. The day was fully arranged, and of course there was no shortage of rest time.
