Chapter 5 New Teammates (Part 2)

Chapter 5 New Teammates (Part 2)

AC Milan gave Degan a completely different feeling from Atlanta, whichever one they had had the strength to play the main force in other teams. Even the team's third goalkeeper, Fiori, was the main goalkeeper of Lazio and Fiorentina before moving to AC Milan.

Moreover, the atmosphere in the locker room made Degan feel very nervous, which is no wonder, after all, the teammates around him are all super capable, at least if they are not careful, they may lose their position in the team, so everyone seems to be very nervous. It's like winding up a clockwork, and there is no sign of slack in the slightest.

"If you want to gain a foothold in Milan, you must show enough strength. I have been here for nearly 20 years. I have experienced many teammates. Some of them have become world-famous stars, but most of them are still losers. , I wish you success and it's good for Milan too! Give your all on the training ground and be ready to be tested, that's what you need to do, I hope you remember!"

While introducing Milan players to Digan, Maldini is still passing on his experience. Indeed, as Maldini said, it is not an easy task to gain a foothold in a giant like Milan, but the more difficult it is , Degan became more excited, as if he had just arrived in Atlanta, and what he liked most was to accept the test.

Massimo Ambrosini, the third captain of Milan, an excellent defensive midfielder with an excellent header, often uses the opportunity of positioning the ball in the front court to score for the team. He was once known as AC Milan The future captain of the team is a very intelligent player, but as Pirlo gradually matures, he no longer has a main position in Milan. ?? Stadium Maniac 5

Ambrosini started his professional career with Cesena, a team near his hometown. In 1994, he was promoted to Cesena's first team and began to attract attention. After playing in the second division for one season, in the summer of 1995, 18-year-old Ambrosini was brought to AC Milan by Fabio Capello and began his red and black career.

After returning from a one-year loan from Vicenza, Ambrosini matured in the 98/99 season. His combination with Albertini gave Milan a new look in the midfield. The tall Ambrosini is a defensive midfielder with outstanding interception ability. He is good at attacking from behind and is good at taking advantage of headers. This year, Milan overtook Lazio and won the league championship.

In 1999, Ambrosini was recruited into the national team by Zoff, and then performed well in the European Cup in 2000. Ambrosini, who quickly became popular, was regarded by AC Milan in the trough as the greatest hope and the heir to the captain after Maldini retired.

Injuries in the next two years kept Ambrosini away from the game for a long time. When Ancelotti took charge of the coach, his position already belonged to Pirlo and Gattuso. He can only accept the role of a substitute and become a regular substitution piece for Ancelotti to switch from offense to defense. Although there are not many opportunities to play, Ambrosini can always turn the tide for Milan at critical moments.

In the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Eindhoven last season, Ambrosini's last-minute goal brought Milan back to life and advanced to the final with the advantage of more away goals.

Ambrosini's strength is enough to be the main player in any giant, but his inseparable feelings for Milan make him reluctant to propose a transfer.

In AC Milan, Ambrosini is almost synonymous with loyalty. Since Ancelotti took over in 2002, Ambrosini has endured on the bench for many years. Ambrosini refused.

Even Gattuso said: "If it was me, I might have moved."

But with the reduction of injuries, Ambrosini gradually became an indispensable member of AC Milan's lineup, and in the future, perhaps in return for loyalty, he became another captain after Maldini.

Ambrosini's position on the field is the defensive midfielder, but he is the player with the strongest header ability in AC Milan. In the test of AC Milan's team, Ambrosini ranked first. His header is often an important weapon for AC Milan when it cannot open the situation.

At the same time, Ambrosini is a player with a very tough will, and his goals often appear at the last moment of the game.

It is because of his comprehensive strength that he can occupy a place in Milan's midfield. Although his performance in the game is not as eye-catching as Kaka, Pirlo and others, he is also an indispensable member of the team. When Sydney is not on the court, people will realize his benefits more deeply and realize how good he is.

Just like last season, in the UEFA Champions League final on Istanbul Night, which made many Milan fans unbearable, Ambrosini's absence directly caused the team to suffer a major reversal at halftime.

Degan, who traveled over here, of course knew that Ambrosini would become the captain of Milan in the future, and hoped to have a good relationship with him, but Ambrosini felt a little repulsive to him.

Gattuso, with a fierce appearance and undying physical ability, Gattuso is regarded by many people as a stadium butcher and a desperate Saburo. However, Gattuso's defensive moves are fierce but he rarely fouls. He has many footwork in AC Milan. Among the delicate teammates, he is more like an outlier, but it is such an outlier that firmly occupies the position of the main midfielder of AC Milan and the Italian national team.

Gattuso on the field made offensive players afraid of three-pointers when they saw him. In fact, his feet were very clean and he never relied on malicious fouls to stop the opponent's offense. Known for his tireless and tenacious style, he often sticks to the opponent's offensive player like a jellybean, waits for an opportunity to steal, and then quickly launches his team's offense. Gattuso's foot skills are a bit rough, so he rarely takes the ball on the court, and often passes the ball quickly, without letting his weakness disrupt the team's rhythm.

In the past two years, perhaps under the influence of many technical experts in the club, Gattuso has gradually changed his playing style. The original midfield engineer with rough skills who only knew how to scramble and hand it over to his teammates has gradually transformed into a technical midfielder. In this transformation, Gattuso also often seized power from his teammates Pirlo and Seedorf, and sent exquisite direct pass assists to the striker. Perhaps, this former butcher is using his actions to tell the world: If you play tricks, I can do it too!

Although his technique is a bit rough, his active steals and tenacious style often become the reason why many coaches are willing to reuse him. In 1997, he transferred freely from Perugia to Glasgow Rangers in Scotland and became famous there. After returning to Italy, Gattuso gradually grew into a top defensive player in the Salernitana team, and was finally spotted by AC Milan to come to San Siro.

In the eyes of the Italians, Gattuso is a player with an alternative style of play. He lacks the lightness of the Latins and is more like an Englishman, never tires, running all over the field. ?? Stadium Maniac 5

Gattuso himself said: "On the court, I am a fighter, and this will never change."

Although Gattuso's technique is a bit rough, he dares to shovel and is not ashamed to be caught by the opponent. Gattuso's horrific defensive statistics come not only from high efficiency, but also from his perseverance. This active and tenacious style has become the reason why many coaches like him.

In addition to technical characteristics, there is another reason why Ancelotti reuses Gattuso. He always brings enthusiasm to the team. When the situation is unfavorable on the field, Gattuso always fights to the end .

Although the appearance is tough and terrifying, Gattuso is actually a good man. Although he is brave on the court, his movements are always clean and neat. Off the court, he is a modest gentleman. He has never been involved in scandal , Due to his poor background, Gattuso also tried his best to help those in need. He even set up the "Come on, lads" charity foundation for this purpose.

In 2004, Gattuso donated all the income from his autobiography "The Real Reno" to the foundation. For this reason, Gattuso revealed his heart: "This book is published to help others with my own efforts. That's what this biography is all about. That much money doesn't mean much to me, but it might mean life or death to someone else. When I went on vacation to Calabria, I felt What should be done for the people there. There are some children there, when they see a cookie, they are very excited. A cookie may be very ordinary to us, but to them, it is equivalent to a new one we bought. A car or a state-of-the-art mobile phone. I hope I can do something for these children, of course not only children, our goal is to help everyone in need."

Also in the team, Gattuso is also a very enthusiastic person. When Maldini brought Digan to him, Gattuso stood up and gave Digan a warm hug.

"Welcome! Rhodes!" After finishing speaking, Gattuso put on a black face again, and said, "I haven't forgotten the hatred of last season?"

Immediately afterwards, under Digan's stunned eyes, Gattuso laughed again: "But now we are in the same group, I can't even get revenge!"

After accepting Gattuso's warm welcome, Maldini brought Digan to Pirlo. In Digan's eyes, this very quiet Italian was a combination of Baggio and Albertini.

Pirlo lived in a wealthy family when he was a teenager. His father was a famous steel merchant. Although his father did not support him in playing football, the stubborn Pirlo was once beaten by his father because he played truant from school. He once chose to run away from home , Later, with the support of his uncle, Pirlo embarked on the road of football. Pirlo practiced in an extreme way. Also practiced the superb skills later.

Pirlo emerged from his hometown team Brescia. In 1995, when he had just passed his 16th birthday, he made his debut in Serie A against Reggina, but Brescia fell into the second division. In the 1996/1997 season, the 18-year-old Pirlo helped the team return to the first division as a champion. Unfortunately, Brescia was relegated by one point in the 1997/1998 season.

At this time, Pirlo has already attracted the attention of major giants, and finally Inter Milan won the attention of all Italian stars with 6 million US dollars. Head coach Simeone admired Pirlo very much. He got a lot of training opportunities in the first season, but the unstable environment of Inter Milan could not wait for Pirlo to mature.

Regina and Brescia's wandering journey did not bury Pirlo, but instead enhanced his adaptability to different environments. In the summer of 2001, Pirlo came to another giant in Milan with a worth of 12 million US dollars, and his fate has changed since then.

After that, Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti launched a brand new Pirlo, a brand new Milan, with a tailor-made midfielder position. Gattuso's defensive ability made up for his weak physical quality. He only needs to concentrate Instigating the offensive for the team, he is the midfield commander of AC Milan.

It can be said that Pirlo is the most convincing genius in Italian football after Baggio. He is proficient in organizing, scoring, and set-piece abilities. His comprehensiveness is amazing. Many fans criticized Pirlo's soft style of play and was not suitable for the midfielder position, but Pirlo's improvement in defensive skills is obvious to all. What is even more commendable is that Pirlo has excellent leadership qualities. His will is extremely strong.

Pirlo's footwork is not inferior to his mentor Baggio. He has gradually entered the ranks of masters with his unique penalty kick skills, scalpel-like precise through balls and superb organizational skills.

In addition, Pirlo also has a free kick stunt, his free kick is not like Beckham's full moon scimitar, nor is it like Carlos, but a "fallen leaf" shooting method , Inherited the essence of Milan's predecessor Albertini.

Pirlo should be most grateful to two people for his achievements today. One is the court mentor Baggio he met when he played for the Brescia team, and the other is the famous coach Ancelotti who transformed him into an organizational midfielder.

If there is no Baggio, Pirlo's cognition of football will not be as high as it is now. If there is no Ancelotti, Pirlo may be lost in the jungle of many big-name midfielders, and he will never come out day.

Pirlo off the court seemed very quiet, as quiet as a master of art. After Maldini introduced him, he just smiled and said "Welcome".

In the summer of 2001, Rui Costa joined AC Milan with a huge transfer fee of 35 million U.S. dollars, becoming the most expensive player in the history of AC Milan.

During his time at AC Milan, Rui Costa also reached the pinnacle of his career. During this period, he won a Coppa Italia title, a UEFA Champions League title, a UEFA Super Cup title, a Serie A title, and an Italian Super Cup title with AC Milan. ?? Stadium Maniac 5

If Baggio is a kind of melancholic beauty, Batty is a kind of sexy beauty, and Zidane is a kind of wild beauty, then Rui will always be in the memory of fans with classical beauty, elegant steps, wonderful The ability to read the game, and the gorgeous pass.

And there are also football socks that are always worn only to the middle of the shin plate, which seems to be a symbol, a symbol of classical beauty, and the curly hair, which is neither long nor short, also exudes the body of a classical Portuguese or French The romantic atmosphere.

As a football player, what he performs with his legs is not a gorgeous movement, gorgeous dance steps, every kick, every landing point, interprets the connotation of elegance.

If Zidane is compared to a generation of wild masters, then Costa is undoubtedly a troubadour who is always looking for the best sentence.

Frankly speaking, it is really difficult for people to locate the value of his green career over the years for the Portuguese, just when people are amazed by his deadly and precise passes, and for every beautiful green of his When the solo dance festival is applauded, you may be surprised to find that such a football genius who meets once in 20 years has not won any personal honors in his professional career for more than ten years. If he has to add some personal honors, it may only be in 2000. At that time, he narrowly lost to Figo and ranked second in the Portuguese Footballer of the Year.

Compared with other stars with full of personality, he just chewed his chewing gum lightly, wandering around the green field like a leisurely stroll. Rui Costa's running is an excellent rhythm, such as the coordination and lightness of a deer prancing on the grassland. He doesn't like to race with opponents like lightning like Figo, another famous teammate of the national team, nor does he like the exaggerated and frivolous scissor feet of Brazilian Denilson at a glance. His sense of time and space is superbly grasped, and in the subtle swings, he takes advantage of the opponent's momentary astonishment to float away. He has never been extravagant to keep surpassing others, the only thing brewing is to spy on the murderous intention and make a fatal delivery in the slight change of the situation. Everywhere, he is a strong heart of the team.

Looking at Rui Costa's pass, it seems that Cao Zhi's famous sentence in "Luo Shen Fu" flashed in his mind: its shape is as graceful as a frightening bird, as graceful as a swimming dragon, full of luxuriant chrysanthemums, and luxuriant spring pine. It seems as if the moon is covered by light clouds, and the snow flutters like the flowing wind, and the body flies swiftly and erratically like a god. Lingbo walks lightly, and the socks are dusty. If you move impermanently, you will be safe if you are in danger. Difficult times to advance and stop, if you go, you will return.

Once upon a time, the Portuguese had long been the brains of Fiorentina's midfielder. The one who achieved the batigoal was of course Batistuta, but the one who created the batigoal was Rui Costa!

When the Argentine god of war won all the praises and medals with a domineering and powerful shot, Costa would smile and hug him, like a green leaf surrounded by flowers.

This kind of smile is a kind of relief and joy for the cultivator, as if every drop of sweat from hard work has turned into a nectar of fruit. If it is said that Batty is an incomparable fierce general who sweeps thousands of troops before attacking the city, then Costa is like a strategist who is planning a strategy and winning thousands of miles away, watching his own whimsy forge brilliant victories .

He is a talented playwright, and his burst of inspiration has activated the potential of the stars in front of the stage, whether it is Batty or Nuno Gomez or the current Shevchenko and Inzaghi.

There was no gossip, no dissonance to be found in Rui. Whether it is in Viola or AC Milan, even if he plays against his old club for the new owner, fans will come to pick him up. Never booed him, on the contrary cheered even more than his own players, this is the charm of the Portuguese football master.

Rui Costa is a talented midfielder, a midfielder born for art, a staring, smiling, spinning, chic and elegant midfielder, a midfielder who has easily avoided the madness of his opponents again and again inadvertently A midfielder who "forces" guns and chases, a midfielder who can do whatever he wants, send and receive freely, lift weights with ease, and be omnipotent.

Even though the position in Milan has been occupied by Kaka, he takes it indifferently. Whether it is on the bench or on the green field, his expression is always calm and calm. In the limited opportunities to play, he is still the embodiment of artistic football and beautiful football. Time can always be the maker of tragedies. In the face of cruel time, the blue hair turns into white snow, and the youth will grow old. Ten years of soul dreams, the wind and the clouds and the world.

Rui Costa sublimated football into art. He is a dancer favored by God. Unfortunately, elegant artistic football is becoming more and more rare. Football in the classical realm does not have a wide living space in reality. It is still an ideal and a self-expression that is not born in the world. After all, luck is just a romantic accident. As the saying goes, donkey drinks are not good products, and classics cannot be mass-marketed. No matter how time goes by, the classics they left for football history and the joy they created for all fans will never be forgotten.

Rui Costa just smiled faintly, and welcomed Degan's arrival as usual.

Seedorf, a super player who won the European Champions Cup on behalf of three teams, a football master who can kill opponents invisible in a leisurely walk, made his debut in the Dutch giants Ajax, and then He has played for such super teams as Real Madrid and Inter Milan.

In the summer of 2002, Inter Milan sent him to AC Milan in exchange for left back Koko. After joining the Rossoneri, Seedorf quickly became the team's indispensable midfield soul. In the ensuing time, the Dutch helped AC Milan get almost all the honors.

He doesn't have many opportunities to shine on the court, and he is willing to hide behind Kaka, Shevchenko, Inzaghi and others, but as long as he half-opens his sleepy eyes and suddenly shows murderous intent, every time he strikes the sword There must be blood.

Seedorf is a player who is used to big scenes, and he has long been used to this kind of people coming and going. He is neither very enthusiastic nor very repulsive about Degan's arrival. Perhaps in his opinion, Degan is also It's just a component to improve Milan's strength.

Serginho, also Degan's fellow Brazilian, was an unnoticed figure on the pitch, an unknown figure in a star-studded Milan

Serginho is a very comprehensive player. He can play the back position, the front position, and the winger. It can be said that Serginho is a good wide player. His wing breakthrough can be said to be a winning weapon for the team. He often stands up when the team is unable to start the situation and uses his own characteristics to create scoring opportunities for the team. Serginho is He showed up when the team needed him the most.

Serginho, who was extremely fast, transferred from Sao Paulo in Brazil to Milan in 1999. He worked hard and selflessly on the wing of Milan and contributed to Milan's victory. He often creates trouble for the opponent on the left side, uses his skillful footwork to break through the opponent's defense line, passes the ball accurately, and brings scoring opportunities to the striker. Goals are made in the center of the penalty area. Serginho is such a player. He often makes the opponent's defensive players dizzy and does not know how to defend him. Serginho uses his skilled skills, flexible The idea of ​​​​making the opponent's defensive players hard to defend, Milan needs such a flexible player to bring hope to victory.

But the years are cruel. As time goes by and he gets older, Serginho slowly said goodbye to his best form. Serginho did not lose his fighting spirit just because he became a substitute. He did not complain and silently assumed the role of a substitute. Although Serginho He is no longer playing as the main force and playing well as before, but he cherishes every opportunity to come off the bench, and sometimes he often plays well off the bench, playing a role when the team needs him most, and he also gets Although he is not what he used to be, Serginho still has to contribute to the team when he plays. This is Serginho, a Players who make a difference.

Although Serginho cherishes his opportunity to play every time, but after all, he is old, even if he is a substitute, it is impossible to perform well every game. Serginho has also received a lot of discussion from the outside world , saying that he is no longer what he used to be when he was older, and sometimes made mistakes that he shouldn't have, but Serginho was not affected by these discussions, and he also got the support of the club owner, Old Bei and the coach, Serginho Ao Jian stayed and continued to fight for Milan to the end. He also cherishes every opportunity to play now and strives to do his best.

Serginho seemed very enthusiastic. Like Digan, he was abandoned by Brazil. The head coach of the Brazilian national team, whether it is Zagallo, Scolari, or the current Pereira, is choosing players. When he was playing, he never paid attention to this Milan winger.

The only difference between the two is that Degan has another chance to choose, while Serginho has completely lost it.

"Rod! Welcome home!"

Home!

This is the unified name of the Milan players for this team. In their hearts, Milan is a big family. All teammates are like family members. They are both competitive and interdependent.

Vogel, AC Milan's harvest in the transfer market this season, the former Zurich midfielder came from PSV Eindhoven on a free transfer. When he signed a one-year contract, many people didn't know it.

However, Degan knew that he was not successful in Milan. He only played for one season. After playing 19 Serie A games, he was traded to Betis as a lead. After a free transfer to Blackburn, he retired from the team in 2009. Some people believe that he does not have the strength to play for the giants. The peak of his career was in Eindhoven, and he is also the absolute main force of the Swiss national team. After leaving the Netherlands, he was never taken seriously again.

Gilardino, Digan's main competitor in Milan's front line, in 2000, at the age of 17, Gilardino represented Piacenza for the first time in the Italian Serie A.

Gilardino's talent is unquestionable, but his career was not smooth sailing, whether in Piacenza or later Verona, Gilardino failed to show the potential to become a top striker until he transferred to In Parma, I really ushered in the pinnacle of my career.

In 2002, 20-year-old Gilardino joined Parma for 12 million euros and met his mentor Prandelli here. At that time, Parma had a strong lineup, and Gilardino scored 4 goals in only 24 appearances in the first season. However, Mutu left Parma in the summer of 2003, which gave Gilardino more room to play. During the winter transfer period, Adriano was recalled by Inter Milan in advance, and Gilardino became a player of Parma. The absolute main force of the striker.

Gilardino lived up to people's expectations. In the 4411 formation specially created for him by coach Prandelli, he ushered in a big explosion in the 2003/04 season. Gilardino scored 23 goals in the 34 Serie A games he participated in, only 1 goal behind Shevchenko, ranking second in the Serie A scorer list, and was named the best rookie in Serie A that year.

In the subsequent 2004/05 season, Parma got into trouble due to selling too many stars, and was stuck in the relegation zone throughout the season. But Gilardino still maintained a stable state. He participated in all 38 Serie A rounds and scored 23 goals again, ranking Digan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic for the Serie A Bronze Boot Award.

Two consecutive seasons of outstanding performance made Gilardino quickly become popular in Apennines, and won the favor of many giants AC Milan, Juventus, Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Chelsea.

The Milan club sent him an invitation in the summer, and Gilardino was also eager to show himself on a bigger stage. In the end, he joined the Rossoneri for 24 million euros, becoming the most expensive transfer in Serie A this season. This young striker has been favored by many experts, "as strong as Vieri, as cunning as Inzaghi" is the evaluation of him by experts.

Gilardino was talented enough to lead the front line, participate in the attack and score goals. Maybe his body is not as good as Vieri's, and his grabbing points can't be compared with Inzaghi, but Gilardino is an omnipotent shooter, he can make any defense line trouble.

Gilardino has Vieri's strong physique, but also has Inzaghi's good awareness and keen sense of smell, coupled with delicate feet and clear mind, he is a great threat in the penalty area.

Gilardino's kicks are not elegant, but they are full of impact. Whether it is overhead, kicking, grabbing points, or making the ball, he is as precise as a textbook. This kind of forward makes everyone who cares about Italian football. one light.

Today's Gilardino is no longer that fledgling rookie center. On the court, his performance is becoming more and more mature and stable. Off the court, his conduct also reflects the demeanor and temperament of a world-class star.

Gilardino obviously didn't expect Degan to choose to return. He came to Milan to create a big scene, but he didn't expect Degan to come right after him.

The two had fought against each other twice before, and Degan won a complete victory. Gilardino did not have the confidence to compete against Degan, so when Degan stood in front of him, Gilardino looked a little dazed. , didn't even notice the hand that Degan offered, and it was Maldini who reminded him before shaking hands with Degan with a smile.

Filippo Inzaghi, Degan's No. 2 competitor in Milan, his skills can be summed up in the word grabbing points. Most of the time, he always stands on the same level as the opponent's defender. When his assist player passes the ball, he judges the trajectory and landing point of the ball before the opponent's defender, and starts quickly at the first time. Even crude but very practical moves to score goals, in addition to feet and head, he often uses other parts of the body to score goals.

Of course, it's impossible to know how to start at every moment, so the number of offsides he has is far greater than the number of goals he scores. In addition, because of his thin and thin body, when Filippo Inzaghi takes the ball in the penalty area, it is easy to fall to the ground due to the "pressing" of the opponent's defensive player, thus winning a penalty for his own side. Many people blame him Deliberate diving, but at least it can't be seen from the video. Whether or not he dives can only be asked by himself.

Assist players with excellent ball control and passing ability can bring out Inzaghi's maximum energy, such as Del Piero, Zidane, Rui Costa, Pirlo, and can open up space in the opponent's defense. The strong players in the file are Inzaghi's best striker partner, such as Vieri.

Inzaghi's impression on the court is his keen sense of smell in front of the goal, super strong ability to seize opportunities, tenacious fighting spirit and poor dribbling. Scoring and dribbling in place, and his stopping skills in the penalty area are also very superb.

It is rumored that Inzaghi has a muscular structure that is different from ordinary people, but the reason why he can maintain a high scoring rate all the year round is because he does not rely too much on physical fitness and physical confrontation when he plays football. Hard work and love of football and desire to win are also important reasons.

In the 2002/2003 season AC Milan's home game against Juventus, Inzaghi's super skills in the penalty area were fully demonstrated. Inzaghi turned his back to the goalkeeper Buffon and received a long pass from outside the penalty area. Use the chest to stop the ball, but use the left toe to touch the ball. At the same time, the body squats and turns 180 degrees clockwise. net. The whole movement is done in one go, and the ball seems to stick to Inzaghi's left toe during the process. It doesn't leave until after completing the turn and rolls gently past Buffon ** and into the net.

In fact, as he gets older, Inzaghi uses less and less powerful volleys to score goals. Instead, he relies on good running positions, stances, and explosive acceleration at the moment of activation to get rid of defensive players. Hit the ball lightly into the net.

Such smart breaking, coupled with Inzaghi's age, made him nicknamed the old goblin in domestic forums. It is really admirable that he still has such a state and breaking ability at the end of his sports age. It is really beyond the reach of ordinary human beings. of.

It can be said that Inzaghi is the most efficient striker in Italy in the past two decades. He does not have the skills of the former star Baggio, nor does he have the strong body of his good friend Vieri, nor does he have the lightning speed of Ronaldo or Henry. Relying solely on his ability to seize opportunities in front of goal, as well as his diligence and love for football, he has reached the ranks of world-class strikers.

FIFA commented on Inzaghi: "He has a crazy passion for any game, but he can maintain a simple football style."

Inzaghi is Degan's competitor more than Gilardino, and it can be seen that he is very resistant to Degan's arrival. In the previous few seasons, he has been Milan's main striker, and Shev Chenko's partner has swept the entire Italian football world. Now that such a junior is suddenly added, it is strange that Inzaghi can welcome him like Gattuso.

For Inzaghi's indifference, Degan was obviously prepared. When he was in Atlanta before, it was not the same. Didn't Shodati also hostile to him?

However, Degan didn't take it seriously. Although he and Inzaghi are both forwards, their characteristics do not overlap. Moreover, Degan likes to play on the wing. If they can play together, they can also create for Inzaghi. Scoring opportunities, if you really want to say who is threatened by Degan's arrival, I am afraid that Shevchenko and Vieri will be the first.

Maldini also felt Inzaghi's rejection of Digan, and said: "Don't take it to heart! Rhodes! Pipo is not a cold person. As long as you get in touch with him for a long time, you will find that he is very Nice friend!"

Of course Digan knew it. In fact, he also admired Inzaghi very much. A player who wants speed but not speed, skill but not skill, and body but not body, can actually become the main center forward in two giants, Juventus and AC Milan. That alone is enough to make people wonder.

Moreover, Inzaghi's fighting spirit on the field has always inspired Degan, so that he did not get depressed after giving up football in his previous life.

"I know! Captain! I don't mind! I think we'll be friends!"

Hearing this, Maldini looked at Degan with admiration. The rumored Degan was simply a troublemaker. He never expected that Degan would be so easy-going, and it seemed that Degan was very humble. It was beyond his expectation.

"You can think of it like this. The first thing a team needs is unity. Only when all of us are united can we achieve good results. This is crucial!"
