Extraordinary coach

After signing Casillas successfully, Sun Yi finally got rid of a worry.

For Sun Yi, neither Said nor Moussa Wague is the player that Southampton urgently needs at present. He still has plenty of time to slowly look for a replacement and then slowly train him.

But the goalkeeper position is different.

Excellent goalkeepers are a scarce resource in football, and are even scarcer than excellent strikers.

Slightly better goalkeepers cannot be bought without a high price. Just look at the fact that Chelsea spent 75 million pounds to buy Kepa, and you can understand.

Sun Yi can't even take out half of this price.

Therefore, Casillas has become an important cornerstone of Sun Yi's King's team, and he can also afford the price.

Casillas is already 37 years old this year. It can be said that Sun Yi is probably the only one in the world who can use him well and make him rejuvenate.

This should be said to be a win-win transfer.

But the outside world is not very optimistic about this transfer. They don't know Sun Yi's ability, so they can only judge this matter from a normal perspective.

"I don't understand. I really can't understand why Sun Yi bought Casillas."

"Yes, Casillas was very good and brought countless honors to Real Madrid."

"However, he is now 37 years old. He has been kicked out of Real Madrid for several years. Can we still expect anything from him?"

"Casillas is no better than Foster now. Although it doesn't cost much to buy him, he is too old. I'm afraid he will retire in less than two years. This is definitely a waste of a quota."

"With Sun's ability, he can definitely train a more promising young goalkeeper. We have reason to believe that Sun can definitely do it."

"..."

People leave and tea gets cold, that's what it means. Back then, Casillas was the darling of many fans and the media.

Today, so many people think that Southampton doesn't need to waste a quota for him.

However, Casillas is an outdated player after all. This is like an outdated entertainment star, not worth the money, and not worth more attention.

Within two days, the news about Casillas disappeared.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, it was just a transfer that was not painful or itchy. It was a small matter that was destined not to cause much waves in the Premier League.

"Forget it. It's already bought. There's nothing we can do. Just think of it as Southampton adding a mascot."

"I finally waited for the transfer window to open. I believe Sun will soon make a big move."

"Let's look forward to it. I hope Sun can make another amazing transfer, just like Ronaldo's transfer."

Seeing such expectations, Sun Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"This is treating Southampton as a real rich team! I'm so poor that I have to pawn my pants. How can I have the money to make a big move?"

As for whether to buy more people next, Sun Yi only has one sentence, that is, "Let it be".

So, those who expect Southampton to have any big transfers are destined to be disappointed.

After having Casillas, Sun Yi put his main energy on training and competition.

After the physical examination before signing, Casillas' physical condition is still good and he is qualified to play.

But now Casillas, whose strength has degenerated to A-level, is not much better than the team's original main goalkeeper Foster. On the contrary, he is still a little weaker.

If Casillas wants to play an effective role, he has to recover well.

Sun Yi made the situation clear to Casillas for the first time. "Given your situation, I'm afraid I won't let you play in the short term. But I can assure you that when you complete my training plan and recover to a certain extent, the main position of the team will be yours."

"No problem, coach, I believe you."

Casillas agreed very readily, and Sun Yi didn't waste any words.

And Sun Yi quickly used the system's ability to develop a training plan for Casillas.

When he got the training plan, Casillas said excitedly without even reading the content: "This is the secret of Kaka and Adriano's rejuvenation, right?"

"Yes!"

After getting a positive response, Casillas felt like he had found a treasure, and then he began to devote himself to these trainings.

Casillas' performance made Sun Yi very pleased.

He could also prepare for the next game with peace of mind.

Next, Sun Yi soon led the team to the 22nd round of the Premier League.

The opponent in this game was Leicester City.

The last time they played, Southampton beat Leicester City 3-0 at St. Mary's Stadium.

Southampton still had a psychological advantage when facing them.

In addition, Pavard's suspension ended and the defense line was intact, so Sun Yi was still very confident.

With Leicester City's current strength, even if they have the advantage of home court, Southampton is still sure to win.

Not to mention that the Southampton team thought so, even the outside world generally thought so.

And when the game started, it was indeed the case.

In this game, Leicester City faced the incomplete lineup of Southampton. It is not to say that they had no power to fight back, but they were in a clear decline.

With such obvious advantages and disadvantages, there will be no surprises in the result.

Southampton won the game 2-0.

It was very happy to achieve the goal successfully. But there were some accidents in the middle of the game.

Foster actually sprained his foot at the end of the game.

According to the team doctors, this was caused by muscle stiffness due to inactivity for too long.

And Foster's sprain put him on the injury list for two weeks.

Faced with such an accident, Foster almost cried.

Sun Yi was also a little amused and sad about this. And he felt a little inexplicably in his heart.

"Maybe this is fate. In the dark, this is God helping Casillas!"

In this way, in the next game, Casillas, who had just been stated by Sun Yi to wait, entered the appearance list much earlier.

Knowing this situation, Casillas was also a little surprised. However, he still looked forward to it.

It's just that the outside world made fun of this matter.

"Casillas is carrying the BUFF of automatic injury to his competitors!"

"With Foster, it is difficult for him to grab a position. Now, his chance has come."

"Now, Sun is likely to use Casillas. However, facing the upcoming key games, whether he can guard the goal of Southampton is really a big question mark."
