Chapter 388 The little guys gather together, Evra, Vidic, Maicon
Chelsea spent 16 million euros to buy Frank Lampard, a mature young midfielder in the Premier League who has been snapped up by major wealthy clubs, from West Ham United.
As a result, the Blues have formed a lineup that is quite good in all aspects.
Including super defender Marcel Desailly, the main defender of the French team, Hasselbaink, the Premier League golden boot, Zola of Italy, Roberto Di Matteo, Albert Ferrer
As well as Sporting Lisbon Triple Crown member John Terry, etc.
However, no one expected that the departure of Quaresma, Viana and Terry would be all the personnel leaving Sporting Lisbon this summer.
Since then, Sporting Lisbon has not sold any players.
Instead, they launched a wave of recruiting operations that was incomprehensible.
Even more outrageous than last summer.
"Sky-high signing! Sporting Lisbon buys Nice midfielder Evra for two million euros!"
"Taken! Patrick Evra, a mediocre midfielder and versatile player, is actually worth no more than half a million euros!"
"Sporting Lisbon is so rich that it's burning out? I don't understand what role Evra can play in Sporting Lisbon's lineup?"
"Quaresma's successor? Evra's game highlights over the past year are hard to catch people's eyes!"
To be honest, let alone other people, even Evra himself doesn't quite understand whether Sporting Lisbon got the wrong person when they bought him.
Because after Evra answered Triguera's call, the coach's first words were: "Evra, first of all, I have to be honest with you, you will not make the team."
"But the team will have two regular lineups this season, and you are the left back candidate in the second regular lineup in my plan."
Evra: "Um...well...Mr. Triguera, did you buy the wrong player with the same name? I started out as a left winger, and later switched to an attacking midfielder. I am more or less a midfielder."
"But left-back... I've never played."
Laughter came from the other end of the phone: "That's you. You can start giving it a try next season. Many players shine in positions they have never played before. How about it, are you interested?"
How dare Evra say that he is not interested?
This is Sporting Lisbon!
Portuguese Super League Overlord!
New Triple Crown Champion!
Qualify for the Champions League this year!
Evra can't wait for the new season to arrive early, and when he plays in the Champions League, he will notify all his relatives and friends in advance, especially his other 23 brothers and sisters, so that they can watch it in front of the TV.
He, Evra, is going to stand out now!
Shortly after Evra's transfer was completed, Serbian Football Super League hegemon Red Star Belgrade officially announced that young player Nemanja Vidic had joined Sporting Lisbon for a league transfer record-breaking price of 2 million euros.
.
This sky-high price is a complimentary term, and it is different from the sky-high price that the media describes Evra.
Considering that Sporting Lisbon has a unique eye for young players and that Vidic obviously fills the gap left after Terry left, people are studying Vidic one after another.
This research revealed that he is really a good prospect.
Last year, he was loaned to Spartak Subotica Football Club in the second division of Yugoslavia Football League. He scored six goals in 27 games, making full use of his 1.91 meter height advantage.
This is the same type of player as Christian Val, the tall center back that Barcelona introduced this season.
But because Vidic is active outside of mainstream leagues, it is difficult for people to judge the specific level of his defensive strength.
Of course, at this moment, no one thinks that such a player from a low-level league can enter the ranks of the world's number one central defenders in the future.
At least for Barcelona fans, why should a low-end product with two million dollars be compared with our high-end product with 17 million yuan?
Not worthy, you know!
Some Barcelona fans even said on social platforms that if they meet Sporting Lisbon again this season and Sporting Lisbon dares to use a no-name central defender like Vidic, Barcelona will beat Sporting Lisbon to pieces!
Deng Kai, who led the Portugal U16 team to Trinidad and Tobago, expressed regret immediately after getting off the plane: "Barcelona must first win the Champions League qualifying round."
"Otherwise, Barcelona may have to compete for the UEFA Cup again."
Barcelona fans were so angry that they vomited blood.
This is a mockery of how they only finished fourth in La Liga last season.
Barcelona fans struggled to find anything to mock Deng Kai, so they could only look for it everywhere.
In the end, they actually found it.
"Daily Sports": "Not every reserve team player's value multiplied by ten can be equal to the core of the first team! Sporting Lisbon bought the player Maicon Douglas from Cruzeiro of the Brazilian Football League for two million euros.
·Sisenando!”
"World Sports News": "Giovanni Sporting Lisbon cannot afford 20 million euros. What is Sisenando with 2 million euros?"
Some media even interviewed Giovanni himself, who had just joined Barcelona. He said: "I don't know Sisenando. When he joined the Cruzeiro reserve team, I had already entered the first team. I didn't know him well.
"
Giovanni lied. In fact, he had heard of this name.
The team is passing the ball around, and the reserve team has a fast right back.
Giovanni is definitely not fast, and he knows this is one of his shortcomings, so he often avoids mentioning things related to speed.
Faced with the ridicule from Barcelona, the Portuguese media "Record" reprinted Deng Kai's response: "What Sisenando, his name is Maicon, remember this name!"
Maicon was very excited after seeing the report.
He also hopes that one day he can respond to the Catalans so domineeringly.
Based on what Mr. Triguera said to Maicon on the phone before, Maicon is full of fascination for his Sporting Lisbon career.
"Maicon, you will be our first choice as a right back in our 4-3-3 formation. Your speed, physical fitness, confrontation ability, and crossing are all very good. Unlike Evra, who acts as a decoration on the left, you will be our right back."
Road’s offensive engine!”
Evra:???
…
Sometimes, the two sides in a blood feud actually have only a small conflict, and it is only because of the constant instigation of other people around that things get out of hand.
This is the bad relationship between Deng Kai or Sporting Lisbon and Barcelona.
Take the recent two waves of controversy as an example. Other media insisted on comparing Vidic and Maicon, who were bought by Sporting Lisbon, with Cristan Val and Giovanni, who Barcelona spent a huge sum of money to buy.
To be related.
If your four million is really equivalent to someone else's 37 million, do you think Barcelona would be happy with it?
Deng Kai: Ahem, you can’t say that. It’s not equal to it, it’s greater than it.
