"Your current level can only be practiced in the second-division league."
After Messi's transfer was completed, Liszt was relieved. Messi has always been the player Liszt pays most attention to, and now he has finally come to Barcelona. No matter how famous he is in Eindhoven, he is just a young star. Even in
Eindhoven won the Champions League, but it was not as good as Real Madrid and Barcelona winning the league championship. There is no way, the current European football world is the genius of these giants. If a player wants to truly become a superstar in this era, he can only join Europe.
A wealthy club. Joining Barcelona now is the beginning of his journey to stardom.
There were no major events in 2007, and there were no major competitions. But the difference is that this year is also the year of greatest change in European football. The president of UEFA has changed, and the era of Platini has arrived. The first two
The powerful and arrogant Meng Er disintegrated and died in his own internal strife. Ronaldinho, who dominated European football in the past two years, also fell. From promising to become the king of the ball, he has now been criticized by the Barcelona media.
Despite the criticism, Ronaldinho's fall is simply beyond people's imagination. No one thought that a top star like Ronaldinho would fall so easily.
Chelsea, which had crushed all opponents and won the Premier League title for two consecutive seasons, also fell. It also died of internal strife. The internal strife between Mourinho and Shevchenko was also behind the internal strife of Mendes and Pini Zahavi.
Gambling, as well as the internal strife between Mourinho and Chelsea's top management. All kinds of negative news are on Mourinho. Anyway, the upstart Chelsea who dominated the Premier League has also fallen.
Of course, Lister breathed a sigh of relief and came to France. It's not that Lister had anything else to do. It was that Lister was helping Arsenal. Wenger sold Reyes this summer, who had never adapted to the Premier League. It felt like
Lack of some wide players. Logically speaking, Arsenal has no shortage of wide players. Cristiano Ronaldo, Robin van Persie, Reyes, Ljungberg are all good wide players, as well as talents like Theo Walcott.
players.
But this season is different. Wenger began to transform Cristiano Ronaldo into Arsenal's main striker, completely following Henry's path. After Henry left, Cristiano Ronaldo became Arsenal's center player.
And the transformation is pretty good. Cristiano Ronaldo is fast, has good body, strong shooting ability, and strong heading ability. After being built according to Henry's model, he can shoot from long range and can solve the problem alone in the penalty area during counterattacks.
Able to header the ball. He scored 26 goals for Arsenal in all competitions this season. He suddenly became Arsenal's top scorer from Figo's successor.
Wenger's transformation of Cristiano Ronaldo is different from the historical Ferguson. The Cristiano Ronaldo created by Wenger is truly going to become a center forward. He also knows how to position himself in the penalty area and how to get rid of the central defender.
Defensive shooting, etc. Ferguson and Wenger are both top coaches, and they can transform the same player with completely different results.
Then Ljungberg left Arsenal. Reyes returned to Spain, and Robin van Persie gradually became a striker, heading in the direction of Bergkamp. As for Walcott, he was still too young. In this way, Arsenal
To put it bluntly, there is a lack of wing players.
At this time, Wenger was most short of money. Fortunately, he cleared out the veteran Ljungberg and sold Reyes. Not only did he get some transfer fees, but he also freed up salary space. Riester was already
A wide player was brought to Wenger. That is Kalu, who is currently performing well at Feyenoord. Because there is only one year left on the contract, Wenger only spent 6 million pounds to get Kalu.
This is a strong reinforcement. But this is not enough, so Wenger is preparing to introduce another wide player, and he is interested in Marseille's Nasri.
Now Jerome Anderson has been squeezed out of Arsenal, and Arsenal is in the hands of three agents: List, Carvajal, and Mendes. Carvajal has Fabregas, and Mendes has
Cristiano Ronaldo and Rist have two Ivorian players, Kalou and Eboue. And currently Arsenal's main midfielder Baptista is inextricably linked to Rist.
When Lister arrived in Marseille, he found that a staff member had come to pick him up. The staff member was very embarrassed and told Lister that originally Marseille's sports director was going to pick him up in person. However, he was temporarily blocked by a player.
.
Lister nodded, and then followed the staff member to the door of Marseille sports director Jose Anigo's office. Right at the door, Lister heard the impatient voice of Jose Anigo.
"But, Mr. Anigo, I think I..."
"It's either the second league or stay in the youth team. I have other things to do. You can go out."
Lister shrugged and looked at the staff next to him with some doubts. Because Lister found that Anigo was very impatient with this player. He didn't know what kind of player was so unpopular. Anigo was not very temperamental.
How could such a bad person not give this player face?
"Bang--"
A player came out of the door in frustration and was stunned for a moment when he saw Lister and the staff. Although his face was very ugly, he still nodded to Lister and the staff, and then left the place.
He is a big man with a height of 1.9 meters, a bit taller than Lister. Lister has a very good impression of him. He can be so polite even when he is frustrated. He is definitely a rare player in football.
.Just looking at this kind of cultivation is enough for List to admire him highly. If a player can maintain such an attitude, as long as his talent is not too bad, he will definitely be able to play well.
"Who is this?"
"A player in our youth academy named Madhi Benatia did not develop in our youth academy, so we loaned him out to the second division. But he wanted to rent out to the first division, so we
Come and find Mr. Anigo."
"oh!"
Madehi Benatia. I have some impressions of this player List. It was exactly the end of 2013 before List came to this time and space. In that summer, Roma introduced a defender for 13.5 million euros. At that time
Considering that the transfer market is already very sluggish in Serie A, the transfer fee is very high. And he is also a central defender. It is quite surprising that Roma can spend 13.5 million euros.
Therefore, List briefly checked the defender. In fact, List had not paid attention to Serie A for a long time since "Calciopoli". Therefore, he was unfamiliar with some of the stars in Serie A. He only paid attention to Madehi Bei during the transfer market.
Nadia discovered that he had already performed very well when he was at Udinese. He was once ranked among the three defenders in Serie A with Milan's Thiago Silva and Juventus' Barzagli. What's more important is the transfer.
After Roma, although Riester did not finish the 1314 season, his performance in the first half of the season was still very good.
When selecting the best transfers in Serie A, Madehi Benatia's name was also on the list, compared with Kaká who came for free. However, Lister was not very familiar with this player after all, so he had long forgotten about him.
.I didn’t recognize him even though I just met him. If the staff member hadn’t mentioned his name, Lister wouldn’t have been able to remember this person at all.
Now that I think about it, this is really a player. What Riester didn't know is that Historically, Madehi Benatia performed so well in Roma that he became a hot commodity in the transfer market in the summer of 2014. For him
European football also believes that his worth can exceed 30 million euros, and this is because he is in Rome. If he were in some other clubs, he might be worth more than 40 million euros.
Many giants are interested in him, including Barcelona and Bayern. They think he can improve their defense. He is a very popular central defender in European football in the summer of 2014.
"Oops, Lister. Sorry, sorry."
Just when Lister was still thinking about Benatia, Jose Agni came out. After seeing Lister, he apologized to Lister warmly.
"Nothing, Jose."
Riester and Anigo know each other. There are many Riester players in Marseille now, such as the Cone brothers who play in Marseille. Gervinho also plays in Marseille. Riester controls the players in Côte d'Ivoire.
resources, so playing in Ligue 1 is getting better and better.
Riester came here this time to discuss Nasri's affairs. But although he was talking to Anigo about the possibility of Nasri's transfer to Arsenal, he was thinking about Madehi Benatia's affairs. The future of Europe
Good central defenders in football are becoming increasingly rare, so that the price of good central defenders is sky-high. David Luiz of Chelsea is not really the top central defender, but he is still worth 50 million.
.
As long as those later central defenders operated well, it was easy to sell more than 30 million yuan. Selling 40 million or 50 million was their skill. Although Riester didn't know what happened to Benatia, but from then on
From the way Anigo treated him just now, you can tell that this is a player who is not taken seriously at all.
Therefore, after the brief conversation, Lister immediately returned to his branch. Then Lister began to investigate Benatia's affairs.
The more he looked at his information, the more funny Riester felt. I don’t know if Benatia offended Anigo in his previous life. Anyway, Anigo was not optimistic about Benatia at all. Benatia said
His background is not bad, because he is a player who came out of the famous Clairefontaine youth training camp in France. Although he is not the top talent of the Clairefontaine youth training camp, he is still a qualified graduate.
He is a player born in 1987. In terms of the development of football, a large number of masters came out in 1972, and another peak period was in 1976. After these two years, although there were some good years later,
But it's still not as good as 1972 and 1976. Time goes back to 1987, another peak period for stars.
Such as Messi, Cesc Fabregas, Cavani, Suarez, Joe Hart, Hamsik, Vidal, Higuain, these people are all stars born in the 1987 generation. And 1987 is even more important for French football.
A very special year, because after the golden generation in France, the most famous and famous ones are the Four Little Swans.
Among the four little swans in France, Ben Arfa and Benatia are classmates of Clairefontaine, Nasri and Benatia are classmates in the Marseille youth training camp, and they are even roommates. As for Benzema and Mene, they are also classmates.
It's all because they are in the same age group and have a good relationship with Benatia. But it's useless to have a good relationship. The four of them are now very popular and are hailed by French football as the future flag-bearers of French football.
But Benatia is completely different. His roommate Nasri performed well in Marseille and attracted the attention of Wenger. However, Benatia kept being exiled.
On March 5, 2006, before Marseille played Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes, Marseille president Pep Molde called on fans to boycott the game due to dissatisfaction with the number of seats and safety issues in the stadium.
The decision was also made to let the Marseille reserve team play against Saint-Germain, which gave many young people the opportunity to show themselves on the Ligue 1 stage. The boys from the reserve team had an outstanding performance in this game, and they played against Saint-Germain.
It was a draw. It was a pity that for such a good opportunity, Benatia failed to play in the game. He was left in Marseille by the team's sporting director Jose Anigo. Anigo explained to French newspaper L'Equipe; "
We don't think this player is capable of playing at this level yet."
In 2006, Elie Pope, then the coach of Saint-Etienne, wanted to loan Benatia, but Anigo responded that the defender could only be loaned to the French second league. Anigo told Pope
Benatia's level should not play in Ligue 1, he should play in France's second division.
This is the tragedy of Benatia. Some people already think that Benatia is good, just like Pop admires Benatia. But Anigo does not think so. Anigo thinks that Benatia is good.
If you are not strong enough, you can only play in the second league. But leasing is not easy in itself, because if you are lucky, you can get a chance to play. Sometimes you are unlucky, and the club that rents the player is not willing to put in the effort to train the player.
Players can only sit on the bench.
Benatia is already twenty years old, but so far he has only played a few games with Tours in the second division last season. Anigo is also a very capable sports director, but for Benatia
Nadia is so unfair, not giving him a chance at all. Moreover, they always attack him, thinking that he does not have the ability to play in Ligue 1. I regret signing a three-year contract with him two years ago.
With a professional contract of 20 years, I can't wait to get rid of him as soon as possible.
After watching it, List could only smile bitterly. Benatia also felt bad about meeting such a sports director who did not think highly of him. List also got some of his training videos and game videos from last season. Overall
He is still young, so he is a little reckless. But he has a serious attitude in the game, strong ability to grab the ball, fierce ball grabbing, and good marking ability. Moreover, no matter what kind of opponent he faces, he can maintain his seriousness for 90 minutes throughout the game.
.
Judging from this, it should be said that the ability is not too bad, and I don’t know why Anigo despises him. Riester is not clear about Benatia’s history, but it is a pity for such an outstanding central defender. Riester
What I don’t know is that historically, Benatia’s current experience is the beginning of tragedy. He continued to be ignored in Marseille, and then continued to be loaned to a second division team. After being loaned out next season, that club simply did not
Give him a chance to play. He was injured in January next year, but Marseille didn't care about him at all after the injury. In the end, he had no choice but to transfer to the French second division for free when his contract expired, and began his life of struggle. From France
He started in the second division league with Udinese, and then performed well and joined Roma. At the age of 27, he was favored by European football giants, and his worth rose to 30 million euros.
But this period of Marseille's history also caused Benatia to abandon the French national team and instead join the Moroccan national team. It was precisely because of Anigo's contempt and suppression that France lost a top midfielder who should have belonged to them.
Defender.
"What a waste, what a waste. Jose is simply a waste of a good player. Since you don't cherish him, don't blame me for taking him away."
Such a good player falls from the sky. If you don't pick it up, you are not being struck by lightning. Anyway, the money has been delivered to you. If you don't pick it up, you are a fool.
