Recently, Crystal Palace’s first warm-up match before the new season is about to begin, and many people are still paying attention to the situation of Crystal Palace.
After all, Crystal Palace was the Premier League runner-up and Europa League champion last season. Although Goretzka, Paulinho and Mendy left this season, Crystal Palace also introduced Perisic and Witsel, so its strength should not have declined.
How much.
Everyone wants to see what the strength and situation of Crystal Palace are like in the new season?
In the new season, will Crystal Palace still be as competitive as last season?
Is Crystal Palace capable of challenging for the Premier League title in the new season?
Therefore, many media reporters flocked to Nanlin, waiting for the game to start.
At this time, Tong Yi was on the phone with Campbell! ??
Tong Yi asked, "How is Jose's recent strength and condition?"
Tong Yi is very concerned about Ignacio's situation.
After all, Ignacio is the target of Tong Yi's training. Last season, he fell into a grudge with Lukaku, which had a great impact on the young man. Lukaku, this guy, ridiculed the young man last season.
Ignacio is not as good as him and cannot score double-digit goals in a season.
At that time, media reporters also added fuel to the flames and put a lot of pressure on Ignacio.
But to be honest, for a young man who has just grown up, Ignacio's performance last season was still very good.
Last season he scored 9 goals in the Premier League and 2 goals in the Europa League, for a total of 11 goals this season.
And he also has 12 assists in various competitions.
This is already very, very, very impressive data for a newcomer of his age.
But to be honest, this data is obviously not comparable to the luxurious data Lukaku handed over when he was at Crystal Palace. Therefore, Lukaku also madly mocked Tong Yi and Ignacio, and the media reporters also fanned the flames.
.
Tong Yi didn't want Ignacio to be affected too much.
And Tong Yi also wants to see if Ignacio's status, strength and mentality have improved this season after last season's experience and growth?
After all, Tong Yi will reuse Ignacio in the new season.
Campbell naturally knew the arrangements, and even the entire coaching staff understood Tong Yi's arrangements.
Moreover, the entire coaching staff is very optimistic about Ignacio and full of confidence.
Campbell immediately said, "Boss, don't worry! Jose is in very good shape recently, and his mentality is very good. He is very active and devoted in training. It can be seen that he is also working hard to improve himself. I think Lu
The words of Kaku and the media reporters still stimulated him and made him more involved."
Hearing this, Tong Yi nodded slightly, such words were very good.
Campbell continued, "If Jose can maintain his current form after the start of the new season, I believe his performance in the new season will definitely shock everyone! I am full of expectations for his performance in the new season!"
Tong Yi very Satisfied, he nodded and said, "If that's the case, then give him more weight in the new season. He will be an important offensive weapon for our Crystal Palace in the new season!"
Campbell immediately expressed his understanding and then said, "Boss, don't worry, we will take good care of him. We all believe that he will shock the world in the new season."
Tong Yi laughed and said, "Then I'll wait!"
At this time, Campbell praised Ignacio again, and he was full of expectations for Ignacio.
Tong Yi can feel it from the description in his words.
To be honest, Ignacio is really good. He scored 11 goals and 12 assists last season. He fulfilled his role as a tactical center very well.
In the new season, Tong Yi is also full of expectations for him.
Tong Yi basically did not discuss the warm-up match for the new season with Campbell on the phone.
Because Tong Yi really didn't care about the results of the warm-up match at all.
What he valued more was the warm-up match process, the state and mentality of the players, etc. Therefore, Tong Yi did not ask questions in this regard.
Originally, Tong Yi was ready to hang up the phone, but Campbell asked about signings again.
Campbell certainly knows that Alisson is definitely the number one goalkeeper of Crystal Palace in the new season, but even so, Crystal Palace still needs a number two goalkeeper. Not long ago, Tong Yi gave Campbell a list, and they are now poaching Tong in the circle.
What about the players on their roster?
To be honest, it’s hard to introduce any of them!
The first one is the 22-year-old young goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, who was born in Paris, France in 1993!
This little guy came out of Paris Saint-Germain's youth training from the beginning. In 2012, at the age of only 19, he entered the Paris Saint-Germain first team. However, he had very few opportunities to play. It can even be said that he almost
No. In 2013, he was rented to Lens in Ligue 2, where he became the team's main goalkeeper, and helped the team win the second place in Ligue 2 in the 2013 and 2014 seasons, leading the team to successfully upgrade.
Last season, he was rented to Bastia Football Club in Ligue 1 and played as the main player for one season.
This summer he returned to Paris Saint-Germain.
However, it is obvious that Paris Saint-Germain does not have Areola's name, and he does not even have a chance to compete with Trump.
Therefore, what lies before him is still the fate of renting out or being sold.
Tong Yi knows very well that in the next season Areola will be transferred to the Yellow Submarine in La Liga. Here he will become a god and help Villarreal reach the league's third place as the main force.
Fourth and fourth in the Europa League, he also completed 15 clean sheets in La Liga, second only to Oblak, and set the club's longest consecutive time without conceding a goal at 620 minutes.
.
Because of his sister Ping's amazing performance this season, he was recalled to the team by Paris Saint-Germain, which gave him the opportunity to compete with Trapp for the No. 1 goalkeeper. Then he defeated Trapp with his excellent performance and became the
The number one goalkeeper of Paris, it was not until the arrival of Buffon in the 2018-2019 season that he gradually lost his main position, and was then rented to Real Madrid!
This guy is pretty good.
Tong Yi is also relatively optimistic.
But, to be honest, Tong Yi thinks there is little chance of introducing him!
Obviously, he would not be willing to come to Crystal Palace as a substitute.
What he needs now is playing time and game training, and he has recently been in contact with Villarreal in La Liga. Obviously Villarreal has promised the main position, and Crystal Palace simply does not
No chance. ??
What's more, Areola still has a dream of Paris Saint-Germain in his heart, and he will not transfer and leave Paris Saint-Germain at this time!
Therefore, Vieri of Crystal Palace was defeated by Areola!
Areola's reply was very clear. He would be willing to move to Crystal Palace if Crystal Palace could promise him the position of one of the main players.
Obviously, this is unacceptable to Tong Yi.
Tong Yi said to Campbell, "Forget it, our main goalkeeper in the new season can only be Alisson!"
Campbell also knew that this was the case, nodded slightly, and said nothing.
The second goalkeeper on the list given by Tong Yi is still from France. His name is Mike Maignan. He was born in French Guiana in 1995 and also came from the youth training of Paris Saint-Germain.
But obviously, the treatment he received in Paris was not as good as Areola!
Paris Saint-Germain are more optimistic about Areola.
It can be seen in the attitude towards the two of them!
In Tong Yi's memory, Areola has always been a concessionaire, and Paris Saint-Germain had never wanted to sell him. It was obvious that he was being trained as the team's future No. 1 goalkeeper. After all, Lens and
The Yellow Submarine and other pairs hope to buy out Areola, but it is a pity that Paris Saint-Germain does not sell him.
The attitude towards Maignan is completely different. Maignan will be sold to Lille this year.
Later, he performed well in the Lille team and was even selected into the best team of Ligue 1 and became the best goalkeeper of Ligue 1 in the future. He then moved to the Serie A giant AC Milan and helped Milan regain the Serie A championship after 11 years.
, and was also selected into the top 30 selection list of the Golden Globe Award for his wonderful performance this season.
This is the most powerful goalkeeper of the year!
Therefore, this guy is actually very strong.
But because he and Areola are not much different in age, Paris is more optimistic about Areola. So they chose Areola instead of Maignan.
It should still be feasible to introduce Maignan at this time.
After all, when he moved to Lille, he was a substitute who failed to play. , it was not until the 2017-2018 season that he became the main player of the Lille team.
Therefore, Maignan should not be promised as the main player of Lille at this time. Even if he goes to Lille, he will not be the second goalkeeper, so there is a chance for Crystal Palace.
However, Vieri feels that Crystal Palace should introduce Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero!
Yes, the third goalkeeper on the list given by Tong Yi is the Argentina national goalkeeper.
Although everyone is very optimistic about Alisson now, this guy is very talented. But he really has too little game experience at the goalkeeper position. If there is any problem, Crystal Palace will be finished! If
At this time, if there is an experienced veteran goalkeeper in their lineup who can take over at any time, there will be no such danger.
Therefore, more people on the coaching staff are more enthusiastic about Romero.
However, it is also difficult to introduce Romero.
Romero is not considered a veteran yet. He is only 28 years old. At this time, he is in his prime as a goalkeeper.
How could Romero come to Crystal Palace as a substitute?
Of course, Tong Yi knew very well why Romero would join Manchester United as a free agent this summer. Because Manchester United was already preparing to sell De Gea and thus introduced Romero from the free market, which was a promise.
Romero's main position. He came to replace De Gea. Who knew that De Gea did not leave in the end, so he had to sit on the bench of Manchester United. And he was not a pure substitute, basically De Gea.
Playing in the league, Romero plays in the cup.
Could it be that at this time, Crystal Palace is going to use the tactics of Manchester United to trick Romero into his main position, and then let him sit and die on the bench?
Isn’t this too immoral?
Tong Yi also knows very well that if Crystal Palace promises Romero a starting position, he will definitely be willing to join Crystal Palace.
However, Crystal Palace does not have the main position that Romero wants!
Tong Yi has left all the signing matters to the coaching staff. Whoever you can win among these three people can be recruited? The transfer operation this season will be left to you. This is also training Vieri and
Look at others them.
To be honest, Vieri and the others really went for Romero.
It is said that they have been discussing with Romero for a long time, but Romero still did not relent, and still said that if he could be promised the main position, he would transfer to Crystal Palace.
At this time, Campbell came to Tong Yi and wanted to persuade Tong Yi. How about giving the main position in the new season to Romero? Let Alisson grow for another two years? Two years later, Romero will be 30 years old and come to the bench.
, and Alisson is also in his prime, is this reasonable?
Then, Campbell and the others were rejected by Tong Yi, and Alisson will be the team's main goalkeeper in the new season!
Campbell and the others were a little disappointed. They went to talk to Romero, but in the end they didn't come to an agreement.
Therefore, Crystal Palace can only introduce the young French goalkeeper Maignan, who is just 20 years old, with a transfer fee of 1 million euros!
