Chapter 521 Drogba's Survival

ps: This is a 10 recommended update, and the next update will be recommended at 10. I hope you will support me a lot~

In Spalletti's view, although offense is a very important thing, if the defense is not strong, it will be difficult for the team to achieve good results-Monaco actually showed signs of this last season. Wenger, who doesn't pay much attention to defense, encountered a lot of trouble when he completed the three consecutive Ligue [-] titles. The opponent often used a quick counterattack to penetrate Monaco's entire defense.

Therefore, Spalletti believes that the top priority now is to establish a complete defensive system for Monaco, which has just undergone a major change. Otherwise, it is difficult to say what the team will achieve this season with this defensive line full of loopholes. Such results.

Just when Spalletti was about to solve the team's defensive problems, the general manager of the team handed him a personal profile of a certain player and a videotape, saying that it was sent by Fiorentina. would be of some help.

Having obtained these materials, Spalletti hid in his hut suspiciously, intending to study them carefully.

As a result, Spalletti stayed in the room for a whole day. If he didn't remember to come out for dinner, someone would probably check to see if he had an accident in the room...

Wenger left the twin stars Henry and Trezeguet for Monaco. Although they are talented in offense, in Spalletti's view, the enthusiasm of these two young players in defense is quite poor.In order to beat these two young people well, Spalletti has been looking for suitable players to make them have some sense of crisis, so that they can actively seek changes.

And the Ivorian center recommended by Fiorentina is the type of forward that Spalletti needs now.

The body is very strong, and the defensive attitude is also very active. Sometimes he even retreats to his own penalty area to participate in the defense. But this can also show that the Ivorian has a good passing awareness.

Spalletti admired Drogba's hard work and selfless attitude, and believed that he definitely has the potential to become a very good striker.Although it can be seen from the video that Drogba has great technical deficiencies, but this is nothing to Spalletti.A striker's offensive skills can be developed slowly by teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, but defense depends entirely on personal attitude.

(Note: Historically, Spalletti was very good at training players, especially those offensive players. Excellent shooters such as Montella and Di Natale are his favorite students.)

Monaco will face a three-line battle this season. The introduction of Drogba can increase the depth of the team's bench, and the Ivorian is still free, a bargain that can be signed without paying a transfer fee.

That's why Spalletti came to Paris during the summer training camp in order to sign Drogba, who hadn't been noticed yet.

"But, but, Coach Spalletti, don't you think that my current level is not worthy of Monaco, a well-known club in the country?" As soon as he said this, Drogba wanted to smoke himself Slap in the face—the head coach of Monaco turned down so many jobs and came to Paris, isn't it just to sign a contract with himself, a nobody?Now that I tell others this, isn't it tantamount to saying that the other party thinks that I have no eyes?

Spalletti was not angry because of Drogba's slip of the tongue, but looked at the Ivorian black big man with a somewhat panicked look in front of him, smiled relaxedly, and said: "Didier, it seems that you Know exactly what your weaknesses are."

"Yeah, since I was a child, my skills have always been inferior to those of my peers in the training camp, and most of the goals are achieved by relying on my body." Speaking of his biggest weakness, Drogba also said helplessly. , "I have also made a lot of efforts, but I don't know why, I just can't master those technologies well."

"I think it's because Didier, you haven't found a football that suits you." Spalletti shrugged and easily analyzed it to Drogba, "I don't want to belittle the French for training young people. The level of the players, after all, they have indeed cultivated batches of stars by relying on this youth training model, but it has to be said that their training model is not suitable for you, so you have not played your body all the time potential."

"Huh?" Drogba has grown up so much, and he has always heard the coaches of those teams say that his skills are rough and difficult to become a master. This is the first time he has heard this truth.

It can’t be blamed on Drogba’s ignorance. He has always been training hard in France. Due to his family background and environment, he has no chance to understand the football styles of other countries. Naturally, he doesn’t know that the French are full of romance. The colorful training mode is not suitable for me.

"If you had grown up in the UK, I believe that with your physical condition and the tactical style of long pass, I am afraid that you would have made a name for yourself in English football." Spalletti simply told Delo Ba explained the style of English football, "However, there are still some advantages for you to train in France for so many years. I have watched your game video, although your skills are still very flawed, but in vision and back body The ability to hold the ball and other aspects has been developed to a certain extent, which is simply not learned in England."

After listening to Spalletti's analysis, Drogba nodded. In training, he did play a lot for his teammates. Unfortunately, today's football requires such a powerful center not to be able to send many assists to his teammates, or It's how much defense he does for the team in the game, but how many goals he can score in a season.

Obviously, in this most important indicator, Drogba is not qualified.

"How about it, Didier? Do you want to go to Monaco with me and become a super center that every team fears?" Spalletti smiled and stretched out a hand, sending a message to Drogba. invite.

For a moment, Drogba felt that what Spalletti said was the most beautiful voice in the world.

Immediately afterwards, the Ivorian smiled, stretched out a hand, held Spalletti's palm tightly, and said, "I'm so happy, Mr. Spalletti."

"No, Didier." Spalletti smiled, pointing out the error in Drogba's words, "It's too unreasonable to call me that, if you want to join Monaco, you should call me the boss. "

"Okay, boss, I am very happy to join Monaco. I am very glad that you can give me this opportunity to prove myself." Drogba nodded and changed his words, "I will definitely not let you down."
