King of the start, I'm the new king of the Azzurri

Chapter 144 The final round of the Champions League group stage (4K)

Regarding the "conflict" between Li Feng and Rodrigo Eli, Gattuso learned about it immediately.

They are not irreconcilable, but Gattuso will not participate in such things at this stage. In his opinion, the value of the two people is not the same.

No matter how you choose, Li Feng will be the first choice.

And before this "controversy", Gattuso also made a decision-to freeze Rodrigo Eli until there was a shortage of central defenders.

The league has also officially entered the mid-term at this stage.

The No.14 round of Serie A is the first game after the "controversy" broke out on the training ground.

AC Milan defeated Sampdoria 4-1 at home, which is also their opponent in the 1/8 finals of the Coppa Italia.

In this game, Li Feng made 1 shot and 2 passes, which proves that his state is still excellent.

After this game, AC Milan's schedule has officially entered December, and there is only one month left before the winter window. At this time, it is time for Galliani to "micromanage".

"Phew, the Coppa Italia knockout round is coming, remind the players, it's time for us to be lucky!"

It is somewhat difficult for the existing AC Milan lineup to fight on the third line, but what Gattuso intends to do is to implant a belief in the players-the belief of longing for honor, even if it is just a small Italian Cup, they will not give up!

"Head, are we really going to fight?"

There was a trace of worry on Paul's face, obviously he noticed what problems AC Milan was facing in mid-December.

Continuous high-intensity games will increase the load on the players, and once there is a crash, it means the invasion of injuries.

The current weak lineup of AC Milan seems unable to afford such a problem.

Especially the striker, once Li Feng gets injured, no one in AC Milan can take on this burden.

Both Gattuso and Paul are very clear about this, so if they choose to fight on multiple lines, it means that they will have a choice.

"2 games in 3 weeks, the density is indeed a bit high, but you can get through it by gritting your teeth, which is good for team building!"

Gattuso still intends to fight, at least for now.

"Head, why don't we wait for the results from the physical fitness side before making a decision!"

"That's fine too!"

"How did you fight him?"

After the training, Montolivo sat next to Li Feng, his tone mixed with some surprises.

Obviously, as a veteran of the team, Montolivo doesn't really want to see such problems in the team.

"It's okay, this is normal training," Li Feng's answer did not get Montolivo's approval.

From the judge's point of view, Rodrigo Eli's defensive awareness and movements are really bad, and he often runs towards people.

Once such behavior appears in the game, it means that the team will pay a heavy price.

"Oh, don't be so ugly."

Montolivo left after speaking in a low voice. He knew that Li Feng was a smart person, and a smart person naturally didn't need to put things on the table.

For Rodrigo Eli, Montolivo is also not satisfied. The defensive tricks are endless, which is not a good thing. Coupled with his explosive temper, it means that once passed, AC Milan There is a high probability that you will pay a heavy price for a set kick or a penalty kick.

Many times the deadlock is broken through set kicks or penalty kicks.

As an opponent, if you give such a "big gift" to the opponent at this time, you will naturally be the "sinner" of the team.

Watching Montolivo leave, Li Feng also put his thoughts on Xiaobaiao.

After this training, Li Feng felt that his consciousness had improved a little.

Especially seeing that the display of the small white bar has come - [Adriano Wright Ribeiro (2008/2009): 54%], which means that according to the current progress, Li Feng can Complete the ascension.

This is only 2 stages away from Adelaide's peak period.

"Be quiet, next I will announce the 23-man roster for the league."

After some reading, Li Feng did not hear his name, which made him a little surprised, but as a player, Li Feng knew what he should do.

"Let me remind you again that this match against Carpi is a test for the substitutes. If anyone performs well, they will have the opportunity to hit the starting lineup."

"."

Isn't this last sentence just to tell the starters of this game clearly that you are just substitutes, if you want to get more chances to play, then please use this game to prove yourself.

But resting for a few more days is a good thing for Li Feng!

"My suggestion is to let Li Feng rest this game, and try to win the next two games!"

Listening to the suggestion of fitness coach Enzo, Gattuso fell into deep thought. To be honest, he hopes to let go of the Coppa Italia, so that he can at least fight for the league championship.

But the next guest at Stamford Bridge, this will be a fierce battle for Gattuso!
Judging from the current qualifying form, there is a high probability that the second qualifying group will encounter Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester City, etc. The strength gap between the two is obvious, and it is basically more difficult to break through.

Once you get the first place in the group, the pressure will be much less, which is a good thing for building the players' self-confidence.

"Huh, then do as you say!"

Gattuso breathed a sigh of relief. He had to accept Enzo's suggestion. According to his estimation, Li Feng's physical fitness in two games a week was already at his limit. If it was two weeks and three games with the same interval, it would be easy. Players may be overtired and injured.

In order to avoid such a situation, Gattuso needs to listen carefully to the advice of his physical coach.

"it is good!"

Because Carpi's game was an away game, Li Feng did not travel with the team.

When Li Feng returned home after personal training and saw the dazzling 0-0 on TV, Li Feng broke the defense.

"What kind of kick is this? 0-0? Is this a joke?"

Li Feng, who was full of anger, opened the refrigerator and drank a bottle of ice water "tons and tons".

Back in front of the TV again, Li Feng watched the starting striker of this game constantly wasting opportunities, and there were thousands of beasts galloping in his heart.

Half an hour later, the 15th round of Serie A came out with a moderate upset - the hot AC Milan shook hands with Carpi in an away game.

AC Milan created many opportunities in this game, but the finishing ability in front of the goal made people shake their heads.

This is also the case with their opponent Carpi, but the status of the two is not consistent, so AC Milan's performance is very bad without Li Feng.

The 15th round of Serie A ended with AC Milan's draw.

At this time, the Serie A ranking has also changed a little bit, and there is very little room for Gattuso to make mistakes at this time.

Current Serie A standings:
1. AC Milan: 33 points

2. Naples: 31 points

3. Rome: 30 points

4. Inter Milan: 30 points

5. Florence: 29 points

Another thing to note is that Juventus has also caught up. They currently have 22 points, and they are only 2-3 games away from the first echelon.

Everyone knows what it means for Juventus to catch up. At this stage, their running-in is getting better and better. If they want to participate in the competition for the league championship, then AC Milan needs to reduce mistakes and get as many points as possible from weak teams.

But the current situation is that in the absence of Li Feng, they were unable to defeat Carpi who was playing at home. This is really a big problem for the team!
"I'm really speechless, why can't I score a goal?"

Li Feng complained a few words, and for Li Feng personally, the next Champions League is his best chance to get in touch with the Premier League.

In Catherine's words, the Premier League will become the league that all stars yearn for in the future.

This is also in line with Li Feng's plan for the future - the league has super competitiveness, the team has difficulty competing for the championship, and there are generous salaries. Some of these groups are Li Feng's expectations for his future "belonging".

Now the only league that can meet these requirements is the Premier League. Of course, La Liga is not impossible, but there are only two teams in La Liga that can satisfy Li Feng's "dream", and they all have a center forward, so Li Feng will naturally not consider them. .

So at this stage, Li Feng's positioning for himself is to "swipe" the data, and then wait for the arrival of summer.

Judging from the current situation, there are really not many teams for Li Feng to choose from.

Bayern has Lewandowski, and they don't need to reinforce the center position. The same situation also applies to the La Liga duo. The only thing that is certain is that the only giant club lacking a center position is Manchester United.

And their current management is a problem. He made Li Feng think about whether this is a choice worth paying for.

As for why there is no Liverpool?

Sorry, they are really poor and cannot afford this transfer fee.

According to the estimates of Li Feng and Catherine, Li Feng's worth will be around 7000 million euros in the next summer, which also means that the transfer fee will be 8000 million to 9000 million.

This is an expensive deal, and in the next summer, the giants will use this summer transfer to update the team.

Therefore, in the summer transfer window of 16, young talents from various clubs will become the targets of signings from giants. As for how to impress these young talents, it is up to each individual!

Flying to London with the team, Li Feng saw a different situation from Milan.

The only thing Li Feng doesn't like so much is the climate here, which is not so beautiful.

"Huh, aren't you cold?"

The weather in December was "slightly" cold for this group of players from Milan.

Wrapped in a big cotton coat with the team logo, Li Feng sniffed and asked his teammates.

For him, this big cotton coat is not so warm.

"It's okay, are you afraid of the cold?"

Milinkovic-Savic's eyes widened. Unlike Li Feng, Milinkovic-Savic felt that the weather was good. After all, the clothes on his body were still cold-proof.

"It's really cold!"

Li Feng complained again, and he stepped into the bus quickly.

"Hey, you'll get used to it with more blowing of the cold wind!"

"Stop it!"

Because of the weather, Li Feng did a very careful warm-up before training. For the players, this link is extremely important.

This is also a problem that assistant coach Paul keeps emphasizing.

At the same time, the coaching staff also noticed that there will be rain in the next few days, which also means that the logistics team needs to provide sneakers suitable for rainy days.

"The following weather is not too good, we may play this game in the heavy rain!"

"There's no way around it, we'll just do our best!"

Gattuso is very clear that this game is related to the situation after qualifying. If he wants to go further, then this game needs to go all out.

"Go to the development conference first, we can take care of the rest!"

"it is good!"

"Hi, Ivan, I'm glad you're here in London. Your next opponent is Chelsea. Do you think you can take away the victory from Stamford Bridge?"

The press conference hall was already full of reporters, and they were already ready to "make things difficult" for Gattuso.

"We will do our best to fight until the last moment!"

The old fritter Gattuso did not answer this question directly.

For these reporters, this is a small problem, and the big meal is next door!

"Ivan, will you still make random changes in this game? Was the previous random change because of Li's injury?"

"Not this game, we're ready to play; the previous rotation was just trying."

Gattuso's words made some reporters' eyes shine, the lineup attempt?Isn't this the so-called game to practice, finding the right players.

"There are reports that Nuo Ze is very interested in Li, he is interested."

"Sorry, now that Lee is my player, I want to talk about something that hasn't happened yet."

Regarding the transfer of Li Feng, Gattuso and Galliani have already reached an agreement, that is, keep silent.

At this stage, there are still differences on the issue of contract renewal with Li Feng, which includes problems in various aspects such as annual salary, number of years, and sales rights.

This is also testing Galliani's ability to negotiate.

"There is also a question about Li's contract renewal. Has the negotiation between the two sides collapsed?"

"Sorry, I'm just a head coach."

Gattuso's meaning is very clear, I am just a head coach, you reporters, don't ask questions that have nothing to do with the game.

"Ivan, you will"

Judging from the current situation, Nozer Mourinho is really interested in Li Feng.

But Chelsea at this stage may change coaches, so these so-called gossips are all just gossips, and there is still a long time before this becomes a reality.

"Nuo Ze, I will come to the scene for this game, I hope you will perform well!"

After receiving a call from BOSS, Nozer Mourinho rubbed his swollen temples. The current situation in the team is a bit bad, and the locker room has been somewhat out of his control. This game is very important to him. One Accidentally, I went straight to get out of class!

As for Li Feng of AC Milan, Noze Mourinho is really interested, but now he needs to take his position as soon as possible, otherwise he will leave before he arrives!
