Chapter 51: Old Club and Old Friends
Although Prandelli asked the media reporters to hold their hands high in the post-match press conference, not to pay too much attention to Ranocchia, and to give him a more relaxed growth environment, but it is the nature of reporters to chase news, just like dogs It's like eating shit, and I can't change it in my life.
The newspapers are full of praises for Ranocchia, and some media have even revealed that Inter Milan and Juventus are very interested in Ranocchia, hoping to introduce this Italian u21 captain during the winter transfer period .
Florence also quickly refuted the media's false reports on the official website, and said that Nokia is the future of Florence and belongs to the ranks of not for sale.
Della Valle's toughness has been seen by people this summer. If you say which team is the most lively in the summer transfer market, it must be Fiorentina. Several giants were linked together, but what happened in the end?
While Fiorentina is expanding its own strength, it is trying its best to appease the players in the team. In the end, apart from Gamberini who was poached by Rome at a high price, only two veteran players, Livirani and Jorgensen, left the team.
Although Della Valle was very tough, Prandelli and Digan were still worried for two days. What they worried about was not that Ranocchia would climb high, but that Ranocchia lost himself in those praises and became Serie A. Injured Zhongyong on the field.
In Italian football, there are quite a few examples like this. For example, Cassano, a boy from Bari who was once known as the successor of Roberto Baggio, was recruited by Rome at a high price, but in the end? ?
Cassano is considered to be the most talented player in Italian football in the past ten years. His excellent skills and skillful dribbling often play with the opponent's defenders. Unfortunately, growing up in a single-parent family, he also has obvious personality flaws. Insulting the coach, refusing to train, and fighting with his friends are simple routines for Cassano.
After a few years of prosperity, Cassano became restless. He made a transfer today and asked for a salary increase tomorrow. Finally, he went to Real Madrid during the winter transfer.
But the journey of La Liga can only be called a failure for him. Whether it is under Del Bosque or under the command of his mentor Capello, he has not been reused. Finally, this summer? Italy, joined Sampdoria.
Cassano is not young anymore, but his achievements are obviously far worse than what people thought of him back then.
There is also Keke, this player is probably the eternal pain in the hearts of all Italian fans. Now 30 years old, Keke was once among the top left backs in the world.
In the 95/96 season, Keke, who was only 18 years old, represented AC Milan for the first time. Although the main position was not stable, his amazing performance and handsome appearance still conquered the fans. Nigerians".
After being loaned to Barcelona for a season in 2001/02, Keke's performance made him an important player that Trapattoni relied on. In the World Cup in Korea and Japan, Keke's blood stained the field, I don't know how many people were touched.
After the World Cup, the left-back came to Inter Milan as part of Seedorf's trade. According to people's assumptions, Koko's career should be smooth, and eventually become a pivotal star in world football.
But what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations. After the transfer, Keke's frequent injuries made him stay away from the field, but Keke outside the field changed from a football genius to a professional woman picker.
In this way, the sensual dog and horse made this genius wither prematurely. In addition to playing for Livorno and Turin on loan, Keke has not been able to play the main force in Inter Milan.
Keke can only rely on negative news if he wants to appear in the media. Last season, he had a trial training with Manchester City. Due to professional ethics issues, Pierce was strongly dissatisfied. Blackmailing made him even more notorious. Not long ago, he was stabbed by a woman in a bar.
With so many off-court affairs entangled, how could this former genius persist in training and maintain a good physical condition?
Therefore, in the end this summer, it is also reasonable for Koko to fail the physical examination of the Saint-Etienne team. After being rejected, Keke also said angrily: "As long as you give me two weeks, I will be able to adjust my physical condition, but the other party disrespects me so much!"
Respect, who can respect such a Keke?
A professional player can only succeed through his own efforts, and it is useless to complain blindly.
Also abandoned by the club, how did Beckham, who played for Real Madrid last season, win back everything that belongs to him with hard training?
Now it seems that European clubs have difficulty accepting this unprofessional player. Koko's agent is contacting the American major leagues for him. It is reported that the New York Red Bulls and the New England Revolution are both interested in him, but based on his current state, he may not be able to play football in the United States.
There is also Lupoli, a player of the same period as Giuseppe Rossi, who was once regarded as a talented shooter in Italian football. In the Parma youth team, he once broke Del Piero's youth team scoring record. At the age of 17, he was brought to London by Wenger.
At the beginning, his performance in the Arsenal reserve team was still eye-catching. He scored 27 goals in 32 games in the reserve team. He is an out-and-out high-yield shooter.
Unfortunately, in the face of the praise of the media, the young Lupoli gradually became smug, began not to train seriously, contradicted the coach, and insulted his teammates. Wenger, who has always been good at cultivating young players, gradually became disappointed in him, and then continued to wander in his loan career. Let this Italian boy wear down his spirituality, and the aura and sense of smell of that year are no longer there.
When young people face temptation, they have no ability to resist at all. The praise will make people feel elated, and money will make people lose themselves.
Digan doesn't want Ranocchia to become the second Cassano, the second Koko, and the second Lupoli. He has talent and potential, and he can reach higher heights, but if~~~~~ ~~~~
But fortunately, Ranocchia did not disappoint Prandelli and Digan. After two days of muddling, everything returned to normal. On the training ground, Ranocchia was still the most low-key one, and he was diligent in training.
"It seems that he has adjusted now!" Degan was also relieved to see that Ranocchia was able to attack and refocus on football.
Prandelli also nodded with a smile: "This is the best, Rhodes! What do you think about the next game? Perhaps we should give him more opportunities!"
Treating Degan, Prandelli never regarded him as an ordinary player, but a sharer of the team's rights. When encountering anything, Prandelli also used to discuss with Degan. It is precisely because of this, The two still maintain a good relationship so far.
Prandelli, who is good at controlling generals, knows Degan's character very well, and also knows what to do to make Degan play the best role.
Degan thought for a while, and said: "We still have the Champions League in the middle of the week. I think a proper rotation is necessary."
The third opponent in the league is not only familiar with Degan, but also his teammates Montolivo and Pacini. Atlanta is now the old club of Florence's front trident.
In that season, the Deep Blue Cyclone in Serie A is still talked about by people until now. A newly promoted horse was able to climb to the top of the standings at the end of the season and won the Coppa Italia champion. It has to be said that this is a miracle.
As the biggest contributors to Atlanta's championship that season, Digan, Montolivo, and Pacini also became famous in one fell swoop, but happiness was short-lived. Gan returned to AC Milan, while Montolivo and Paccini moved to Fiorentina in a package. In addition to their three most important players, Maxwell, Jimenez, Nocerino, Montero, Cassetti, Gamala chose to leave one after another.
Up to now, the only players who have played for the deep blue team are Lazari and Taibi.
For Lazari, Degan has always felt a little regretful. You must know that in Atlanta, Lazari was a more promising talent than Montolivo, but in the end because of injuries, when his friends were at the stadium As the team proved himself, Lazzari's career was still going nowhere.
Lazari is standing still, and Atlanta has long since lost its original glory. Although they can barely avoid relegation in the past few seasons, every defense of Bergamo gives people the feeling of surprise.
Bringing a team with unlimited possibilities to the current field, Riodo can be regarded as a miracle.
Atlanta, which was most likely to become the Young Guards, has now become a complete ruin.
Fiorentina is facing Atlanta at home. No one would think that the weak Atlanta has a chance. Before the game even started, three points have already been recorded in Fiorentina's name.
The fact is also true. Just five minutes after scoring in the first half, Pacini, who returned from injury, received a header from Digan and broke through his old club's goal with a shovel.
After the goal, Pacini did not choose to celebrate, but put his hands together to show his gratitude to his old club. After all, he also came out of Bergamo.
Immediately afterwards, seven minutes later, Degan also scored a goal. He volleyed vigorously from outside the penalty area and broke through Taiby's ten fingers. A banner immediately appeared in the stands: Thank you Degan! 131!
131 goals, the number that many shooters dream of, the first step happened to be completed when Degan was in Atlanta.
After the goal, Degan also did not choose to celebrate. Although he was full of hatred for Riodo and Degan, he felt guilty about the Atlanta team.
At the beginning, after he was given up by AC Milan, if it weren't for Atlanta, even if he was a combination of Pele and Maradona, he would still have no chance to show himself on the court.
But gratitude is one thing, and the game on the court is another. Degan has never been a person who will be swayed by personal feelings. As long as he has the opportunity, he will never miss his opponent.
Before the end of the first half, Degan scored another goal. After he got the ball in the middle, **, after dangling Taiby, sent the ball into the net with one kick.
3:0!
Thanks Digan! 132!
The way Florence fans thank Degan has now become a scene in Florence. Some media even joked that the way Florence helped Degan celebrate can even save a textile factory.
Degan's sneaker sponsor, Adidas, also took this opportunity to launch Degan's second exclusive sneakers. Each batch will be marked with the number of Degan's current goals, which can be regarded as a way of promotion.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment of Florence, the weak Atlanta has no power to fight back. Although the team welcomed back their original king Doni last season, it is a pity that Doni has long since lost his former courage.
In the second half, Kavinaghi, who came off the bench, scored another goal and finally locked the score at 4:0!
After the game, the Fiorentina players simply celebrated. For the current Fiorentina, defeating an opponent like Atlanta can no longer satisfy them.
victory! It's just a matter of course!
"Rod!"
Degan turned around, and standing behind him was Lazari. Lazari worked very hard in this game and had a chance to score once. Unfortunately, his free kick shot was rejected by the brave Frey. .
"Andre!" Digan didn't know what to say to this old friend.
At the beginning, the situation of the Four. Gang in Atlanta was also different. At the beginning, Lazari was favored by Florence. Unfortunately, due to injuries, he could only stay in Bergamo in the end.
Lazari didn't speak, but just took off his jersey. Digan was taken aback, and took off his own jersey. Speaking of which, since leaving Atlanta, this is the first time that two old friends Face-to-face competition on the court.
A few times before, either Degan was injured or Lazari was injured.
"Congratulations! Rhodes!" When Lazari said this, his eyes were full of sadness.
Among the four good friends back then, Lazzari was the most sentimental one. The disintegration of the Atlanta youth team that swept Serie A has always been the biggest pain in Lazzari's heart. If there were not so many things at the beginning, they should have achieved it together. greater achievement.
What Degan could say, the last thing he said was, "Thank you!"
The two passed by, and then drifted away.
