797 As long as the check dance is good, no team can poach him!
As the captain of the team, Su Dong must consider the unity of the locker room.
At this meeting, he believed that the team should not make any public statement, because neither Joe Hart nor Gareth Barry had problems that occurred while playing for the team. No matter how fierce the commotion outside was, the team
No one should get involved.
But he said that he would communicate well with his two teammates and handle the matter properly.
Sudong's proposal was supported by Guardiola and Begiristain.
Both of them are professional players and both know the rules of the locker room.
Are there any problems with the scandals surrounding Joe Hart and Gareth Barry?
Needless to say, there are, and they are very large, it can even be said that they lack professional ethics and self-discipline.
Not to mention the imminent battle for the national team, let's just say that during the league period, the two of them hung out in nightclubs. This is intolerable.
Either this kind of thing will not be exposed, or once it is exposed, it will naturally be criticized by the media and fans.
But in this situation, the team must protect the players first.
Even though Guardiola is very dissatisfied with Joe Hart, he also supports Su Dong's suggestion.
Soriano finally made the decision and asked the public relations department to come up with a plan as soon as possible to calm public opinion in the shortest possible time.
…
The matter between Joe Hart and Gareth Barry was only part of this meeting.
The club then had to discuss some issues regarding daily operations and signings during the winter break. After discussing the players, Su Dong was about to get up and leave, but Soriano stayed behind.
"We all want to hear from you and the locker room," Soriano said.
Su Dong looked at Guardiola and Begiristain and found that no one seemed surprised, and then he understood a little bit.
I dare to bring up the matter of Joe Hart and Gareth Barry and call me back from Oxford for a meeting. It's just a cover. What I really want is to "promote" myself and participate in this kind of thing that is related to the daily management of the team and
A major signing for the club.
As the captain of the team, this is actually beyond his authority.
Many times, the club respects the captain and will ask for his opinion, but it is more of a reference, let alone directly participating in the meeting for discussion.
Regarding the team's winter break signings, Guardiola first hopes to bring in a goalkeeper, but whether it is Liverpool's Reina or Barcelona's Valdes, it is obviously unlikely that they will transfer to Manchester City.
As a result, the team currently has no good candidates in terms of goalkeeper recruitment.
This is actually the reason why Su Dong believes that Joe Hart should be protected. After all, Given is old and Manchester City still needs to rely on Joe Hart for the next game. Once the punishment angers the England national team, it is not a good thing.
Guardiola is also not happy with Micah Richards.
This season, he has used Micah Richards to play right back and center back, and has had some bright performances, but most of them have been mediocre or even sluggish, which is quite disappointing.
The current main force of the team is the combination of Kompany and Pepe. Both players have performed very well. Jerome Boateng is a player that Guardiola likes very much, but his performance is still a bit unsatisfactory.
Very reassuring.
Therefore, Guardiola also wants to get Benfica's Brazilian central defender David Luiz.
David Luiz is 23 years old and 1.88 meters tall. He joined Benfica in 2007 and has performed very well so far. He was also called up to the Brazilian national team after the World Cup in South Africa and is worth a lot.
Chelsea are currently very interested in him and want to use him to strengthen the team's defense.
Guardiola also likes this central defender who has excellent physical conditions, delicate footwork, and an excellent long pass. He believes that if he joins the team, he can form a formation with Pepe, Kompany and Boateng.
compete.
Manchester City's style of play has high requirements for central defenders and consumes a lot of money on the back line. If they want to fight on multiple lines, there are only three central defenders. Guardiola thinks it is not enough, so he wants to introduce David
Louis.
For the Manchester City management, the introduction of David Luiz can also attack Chelsea, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
You know, so far this season, Manchester City ranks first, but Chelsea is closely followed by one point. It is also unambiguous that Manchester City will never mind if they can hit their opponents.
"Su, what do you think?" Soriano suddenly asked.
Su Dong was a little surprised. He planned to listen, and even forgot about it when he went out after listening. But why did the question suddenly come to his head?
Seeing Su Dong look at himself and then at Guardiola, Begiristain chuckled and said, "Just say it, just say it freely."
Guardiola also smiled and nodded, obviously also wanting to hear Su Dong's thoughts.
Su Dong understood that he could not escape from this level.
In fact, he is not willing to get too involved in the management of the club. Being the captain is already difficult, and now he wants to get more involved. This is not his style.
How many people are eagerly waiting for promotion to increase their voice in the club.
But for Su Dong, he really had no interest in this aspect.
However, since he wants to say something, he will definitely tell the truth.
"To be honest, David Luiz is very strong and has amazing potential. I think he will not be worse than Pepe in the future, and I think he can adapt to our team's tactics, but for now
, he was still a little reckless."
Guardiola nodded and added, "Being reckless is not necessarily a bad thing."
"Of course." Su Dong agreed.
Being reckless is not necessarily a bad thing.
Sometimes, for defensive players, the more they do, the more mistakes they make.
Therefore, some "smart" defensive players will adopt a more conservative strategy and try to avoid doing too much, giving fans the impression that they are very stable and never make mistakes.
But some players will appear more active and often take the initiative to take over tasks, which makes it easy for them to make mistakes and appear reckless.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Is it better to be steady? Or to be reckless?
In fact, fans often like stability, but teams often like rashness.
Mistakes are not terrible. What is terrible is that you are afraid of making mistakes and do nothing.
…
In order to enhance the team's competitiveness, Manchester City spared no expense and did not even set a cap on Guardiola's transfers.
Is David Luiz fit for the team?
Can!
Soriano immediately made the decision and asked Begiristain's technical team to immediately come up with a plan and start contacting Benfica in an effort to buy the Brazilian central defender before Chelsea.
This made Su Dong feel the courage of Manchester City's management. When they make decisions, they don't need to worry about funds at all.
Behind them stands the Abu Dhabi consortium, and Manchester City is so wealthy today.
In European football, as long as the check is done well, no team can be poached.
However, soon, another thing happened that surprised Su Dong.
Guardiola mentioned Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas to Begiristain.
Begiristain made it clear that he had been in contact with Fabregas many times and even went to London to lobby in person. Guardiola also called him, but Fabregas was very determined to join Barcelona and he wanted to go back.
After failing to recruit Cesc Fabregas, Guardiola and Begiristain set their sights on Barcelona's La Masia youth academy.
As we all know, La Masia's youth academy has ushered in a wave of talent.
After Messi and Bojan, a group of young talents such as Dos Santos emerged, and two of them attracted Guardiola's interest. One is the midfielder Thiago, who has dual nationality of Spain and Brazil.
The other one is the extremely fast full-back Bellerin.
Bellerin, who will not turn 16 until March, is a player who has performed well in La Masia's youth training camp. He is very fast and has attracted the attention of some Premier League teams including Arsenal very early.
Manchester City has a natural advantage in this regard.
Guardiola, Begiristain and Soriano are all from Barcelona, and Sudong is also a star destined to enter the Barcelona Hall of Fame. This is still very attractive to Bellerin.
More importantly, the existence of Alves makes Bellerin lose hope.
Compared to Bellerin, Thiago's situation will be more complicated.
The 19-year-old midfielder made his debut for the first team in 2009, but only played one game. He was still in the first team last season, but only played two games. So far this season
, he also has little chance to play.
A very important reason is that head coach Mourinho does not like this type of midfielder. He appreciates the likes of Seydou Keita and Yaya Toure more, and even wants to introduce players like Etienne.
Xin this type of midfielder.
The existence of Xavi and Iniesta, coupled with the preference of head coach Mourinho, makes Thiago's chances in Barcelona very slim. Therefore, Manchester City is in contact with Barcelona, hoping to sign Thiago and strengthen
The team's midfielder.
Guardiola believes that Thiago will be a powerful supplement to the team's midfield or deep-lying midfielder, because so far, Manchester City's only deep-lying midfielder that can satisfy Guardiola is Busquets.
.
With Michael Johnson destined to be abandoned, it would be wise to introduce another young midfielder.
Sudong also learned from the words of Begiristain and Guardiola, combined with Cruyff's column, and some information he heard, he could feel Mourinho's coaching and Barcelona's skills and tactics, and
The profound influence of youth training tradition.
So much so that Cruyff even said in his column that Barcelona's orthodoxy lies in Manchester City.
It shows how dissatisfied he is with Barcelona under Mourinho.
…
In addition, Guardiola also wants to continue to recruit players on the front line.
On the one hand, he is dissatisfied with Santa Cruz and wants to strengthen the recruitment of center substitutes; on the other hand, the two wingers Di Maria and Sanchez are very good, and Adam Johnson also has certain performance, but Wright
· Phillips is somewhat unsatisfactory.
Guardiola hopes that the technical department can draw up a plan as soon as possible and make some moves at the center and winger positions.
The Spaniard believes that Manchester City is on the right path. As long as the team's strength continues to improve, it will definitely achieve great results in the future.
