Chapter 17 Preparations

On Florence's training ground, everyone was running hard, and everyone felt a pair of eyes staring at them behind them. Those eyes made them feel chills in their hearts.

"Marco! You can't run anymore, can you? Shouldn't you be kicked back to the reserve team, where the training intensity will be the first!"

Hearing the news, Donadell immediately cheered up and stopped Hamsik who was driving a breakthrough with a tackle. He didn't want to return to the reserve team. In just five days, his weight dropped by five kg, the slightly protruding belly has long since disappeared, and every day in the reserve team is a torment for him, and he absolutely does not want to be targeted by Digan at this moment.

"Marek! Watch out for your side, your job is to dance on the pitch, pass the ball! pass the ball! Don't you see Fernando is going to be scorched by the sun? Get rid of it, give him a chance, let him know football too It's round!"

Hearing this, Hamsik quickly jumped up and ran far away to assist in the defense. Kavinaji, who was lying on the gun, did not dare to neglect, and no one dared to provoke Digan, a mad dog at the moment.

All the old players were silent under Degan's authority. The new players also learned about Degan's methods, and made up their minds to be a man with the tail of the holiday.

Although the daily training intensity is very high, the three newly joined players have also seen hope. Fiorentina is indeed moving on the right path, and it is not walking, but running.

Especially Modric, after changing his position from the front midfielder to the back midfielder, he suddenly discovered a brand new world. He doesn't need to use technology to fight the opponent's defenders, he can calmly observe The position of the teammate, then catch the ball, pass the ball.

Fiorentina's current tactic is said to be three midfielders, but it is not always true. Among the three midfielders, only one is actually responsible for the defense. The other two are very flexible. Sometimes they are responsible for the organization of the center.

?? simply pull to both sides and act as a winger, but when defending, they have to quickly return to their positions and organize the first barrier in front of the penalty area.

Especially designed by Prandelli, the three defensive midfielders constantly change positions and attack continuously, which liberates all the midfielders and allows them to contribute to the team with less energy consumption. greater contribution.

Soon, Fiorentina ushered in the first warm-up match. In this game, Degan sat on the bench and all three newly joined players played. The opponent was Rosenberg from Sweden.

During the game, Fiorentina completely took the initiative. Just five minutes into the game, Modric scored a goal after joining Fiorentina with a heavy shot from outside the penalty area.

Immediately afterwards, Cavinaghi scored a hat-trick in the first half, and his three goals were all wonderful. It can be seen that the Argentine Lion King is in a very hot state now.

After the start of the second half, Fiorentina's defensive line was negligent, and Ranocchia, who partnered with Kompany as a central defender, was not marking well. He was hit behind by the opponent, and Rosenberg pulled back.

But then, Modric scored twice, he got in in time, received a pass from Arteta, pushed the ball calmly, and scored the ball. The two new players completed Fiorentina's first goal. Five goals.

Another newly joined player, Marchena, did not score or assist, but he pressed and defended like a lunatic, which made Rosenberg's midfield completely out of touch. Rosenberg was not even able to send out a goal in the whole game. An effective through pass.

In the first warm-up match, Fiorentina beat the Swiss powerhouse 5:1, which made Fiorentina fans cheer.

In the following four warm-up matches, Fiorentina won all the matches against Lazio, Hamburg, Atletico Madrid and Bolton in the Premier League.

In these five games, Degan was only in the match against Bolton. He came off the bench for 20 minutes in the second half, but failed to score.

Degan's inability to play also made people speculate whether there was a crack in the relationship between him and Prandelli. In the football world, discord between generals is the biggest hidden danger for a team.

But soon Degan stood up to refute the rumors: "I just feel tired, and I feel that even if I don't play, my teammates can still win!"

Look down on people!

The chairman of Atletico Madrid, Hill, was furious after hearing Degan's remarks: "He doesn't know what respect is at all. We invited them to Madrid and gave them the best hospitality, but Degan showed it. It's unbelievable that a world-renowned football star can show people such an uneducated side."

Little Hill's anger seemed pale, because the result of his team's warm-up match with Fiorentina was 3:0. Pacini, Ledesma and Kompany made contributions one after another. He easily won the victory.

Digan obviously dismissed Little Hill's words: "Whenever they win against us, I will give them the respect they want, and I don't think my words offend anyone, that's the truth!"

In this regard, Xiao Hill's retort was: "When they beat the Milan duo, he is qualified to say such a thing. What does it mean to win the warm-up match!"

A stellar record in the warm-up match may not really mean anything, but it can also prove from one aspect that Florence is indeed in a very good state now.

Modric, who has just joined the team, also said in an interview: "I feel very good now. Although I have only joined the team for a short time, I can feel that I am improving rapidly and competing! ? That's right! Any team has a competitive relationship, but my teammates and I are in a healthy competition. Rhodes will not allow any discordant voices in his team! You heard it right, in my opinion Come on, Fiorentina is Rhodes' team!"

Deegan's team?

What would Prandelli and Delaware think of this?

Prandelli seems to be very optimistic: "A team needs a leader. I am very happy that Degan can take on this responsibility. Facts have proved that he has done a very good job!"

Prandelli has no objection, and Delava's coming is even more irrelevant: "I'm very happy to hear such a statement. In fact, if possible, I hope that Rhodes can take on more important responsibilities in Florence. He Capable of handling everything!"

Depend on!

This harmony is a bit too much!

But in fact, Fiorentina is so harmonious. With Degan's loud voice and a series of warm-up matches, they ushered in their new season. Their first opponent is Feyenoord!
