Chapter 74 Shaken

When the flowers bloom and fall, looking at the weak state of AC Milan in this game, and Kaka's tired and lonely eyes, Degan can't help being a little shaken, maybe leaving this team that has gradually lost its aggressiveness , is not necessarily a bad thing for Kaka.

The degenerate trajectory of AC Milan this season perfectly interprets this old saying, after winning the European Super Cup and pushing this AC Milan to its peak. However, what followed was a sharp decline in performance, and the dream of the Rossoneri's dynasty fell to the ground like tofu.

Although the game is not over yet, it is not difficult to see from the first half of the game that now this AC Milan team has almost reached the point where they have no desires and no desires. The slogans are loud and loud, but in reality, the desire for victory and honor, AC Milan's players are obviously not as good as the vibrant Fiorentina.

Today's AC Milan team is no longer a question of whether a revolution is needed, but a question of how to make a revolution.

Take a look at the first half of the game. The young people of Fiorentina are playing wild in front of the former superstars. Even the juniors like Hamsik and Modric can take the ball at will in the huge space of AC Milan's defensive formation. Degan even made Otto and Nesta completely lose their temper. It must be said that this is the current strength of AC Milan, but there are still some people in the world who can't see this. Galliani and Bellus Kony is still deceiving: "We don't need a big change."

Although he emphasized more than once that "it is not a problem to buy people with money", Berlusconi seems to be cash-strapped, or he is not willing to pay.

Take a look at AC Milan's gun-hunting target, the acquisition of Drogba, Amaury's thunder is loud and rainy, and "Slow Motion" revealed that Milan is already trying to lease back Shevchenko, but the Ukrainian nuclear warhead that is about to misfire is really true. Can AC Milan be pulled out of the flames?

The aging of AC Milan did not start from the last two seasons. After buying Nesta and Rui in the two seasons from 2002 to 2004, Berlusconi has actually changed his strategy, advocating zero transfer fees plus High salaries to build teams.

Pancaro, Cafu, Favalli, Inzaghi and Seedorf are all products of this strategy.

Although this strategy has brought Milan a golden age, it is precisely this chronic disease of "short-term behavior" that crushed the Rossoneri.

Experienced veterans are of course able to fight, but can they be free? They come for free but receive high salaries. For example, Favalli, Cafu, Sergio, Maldini and others all have an annual salary of around 2.5 million euros. After tax payment, more than 20 million yuan is needed to support these veterans who can't play many games. While squeezing the space for young people, it puts a huge salary pressure on the club. If you want to exchange blood and have no money, you can only continue to rely on veterans. Such a vicious circle , when the status of the veteran plummeted, what awaited AC Milan was a full-scale explosion.

It is disappointing that until now AC Milan still continues the veteran route. Recently, news from the media: AC Milan will sign the 33-year-old Inter Milan winger Cesar for free, while Serginho, Favalli, Card Fu's contract extension is only short of announcing that if Maldini plays for another year, Milan will repeat the feat of a 150-year-old defense!

If the bad record is exchanged for the club's sudden awakening, it is worthwhile. Even if the bold "broken arm cures poison" sacrifices a season or two, it may win a new life, but Berlusconi, who has not yet awakened, made AC Milan go to Parma and Lazio's old way, a wealthy family has declined? It is alarmist but not sensationalist.

Although it is an away game, AC Milan is completely helpless when it is beaten by Fiorentina like it is now. People have to re-examine this AC Milan and the so-called "no need for revolution". Lottie has become the head coach who has won the most UEFA Champions League titles at the moment, and also made this AC Milan team reach its apex, but like the law of everything, there is a rapid decline after the apex. The current AC Milan, after six rounds of the league, is actually a miracle Generally only got one victory.

This is the current situation of AC Milan, and it is also a reflection of its real strength. Look at the young Fiorentina taking the ball at will in the huge space of AC Milan's defensive formation. Little-known players like Bart and Hamsik seem to be able to easily become the main players in AC Milan.

The current situation is very dazzling, but it is also very real. In fact, comparing the lineups of AC Milan and Fiorentina, especially in terms of lineup thickness, AC Milan does not have the slightest advantage.

The former Milan coach Sacchi once pointed out the problems of the current AC Milan. Sacchi said sharply: "This AC Milan is too old and too slow. It is time to change."

In the last round of lucky draw with Catania, Ancelotti said after the game, "We have no excuses", Galliani still blamed the referee, but blamed objective reasons, never serious self-reflection , Still immersed in the dream of winning the Champions League, this is the current situation of the AC Milan club. AC Milan's performance may make this season lose hope, and the club's attitude may make AC Milan lose hope forever.

Berlusconi refuses to spend money, and even plans to do big things without spending money, but at this point, it seems that even Ancelotti, who has always cooperated, can hardly accept it.

He publicly stated at the press conference after the game against Catania: "Shevchenko and Pato are not an ideal partner because they have similar characteristics."

This is not because of the conflict between Ancelotti and Shevchenko in the past, but because he does not believe that Shevchenko's zero-price acquisition can change the face of AC Milan.

But the AC Milan club seems to be planning this way. Shevchenko will come next season or winter. At the same time, AC Milan is still renewing some old players who can't play at all.

Cafu is still considering, but Serginho and Favalli's contract renewals have been confirmed, just wait for the official announcement!

But why renew such a player?

Favalli is already in such a state this season, Serginho is not as good as Favalli, they will still appear in this team's lineup next season, which means that AC Milan will inevitably use them in some games .

From crazy investment to extreme poverty, although Berlusconi did not go bankrupt like Tanzi and Craniotti, AC Milan seems to be following the old path of Parma and Lazio.

It is a pity that the club seems to have no intention of changing anything, so after a few years, it is by no means alarmist that Serie A will have one less traditional giant and one more struggling noble like Parma or Lazio.

At the end of last season, Costacurta bid farewell to AC Milan, and the problem of defenders in the defense was finally brought to the fore. How long can a veteran player of grandpa generation last?

Among AC Milan's current first-team players, 16 are over 30 years old, and 9 of them are the team's regular main players. Relying on these veterans to meet the intensive schedule of the Champions League double match in a week is really a bit overwhelming for Milan.

In 2003, Milan introduced 30-year-old Rivaldo; in 2004, Milan introduced 33-year-old Dorasu; in 2005, Milan introduced 31-year-old Amoruso, 32-year-old Karachi and 32-year-old Vieri; In the summer, 34-year-old Favalli, 30-year-old Odo, 29-year-old Ronaldo, and 29-year-old Storari joined Milan; in the summer of 2007, they bought former Roma and Juventus stars from Real Madrid, 31-year-old Emmo Sen, the next goal of AC Milan is Shevchenko, Zambrotta and a Ronaldinho who is about to pass his peak period.

In fact, when Milan won the Champions League last season, the team should consider the issue of blood replacement, but the signings of the Rossoneri every season seem to be painless.

When the team needed a center forward most, they chose Ronaldinho and gave up Adebayor. When the team needed a defender most, they brought Favalli back. If Kaka also leaves AC Milan, wait for AC Milan Certainly the generals building collapsed.

Of course, the current lineup of AC Milan is not useless, but for such a veteran giant with a glorious history, with such a lineup, it is undoubtedly a bit difficult to compete with the increasingly powerful Fiorentina and Inter Milan in the new season. difficulty.

Inter Milan spent a lot of money this summer, introducing Chivu, and made targeted supplements to the team's weaknesses last season. After Juventus is upgraded, it is also signing up aggressively to expand its strength, not to mention Fiorentina. While retaining most of the players, they continue to rejuvenate. Arteta, Marchena and Modric make Fiorentina's first team The average age is the highest in European football.

As for the AC Milan Nursing Home, which is still weak, what will it rely on to compete with these teams this season?

And behind him, there are Rome, Udinese and Palermo who are eyeing each other.

AC Milan is in decline, and the Italian national team is also weak in succession. This is directly related to the decline of AC Milan, the pillar of the league. Now, this team would rather sign some veterans who are over 30 years old than train newcomers.

At the peak of AC Milan, they contributed to the entire national team's main defense line including Maldini, Baresi, Costacurta, and Tassotti, and the world-famous "reinforced concrete" defense line was formed.

However, as these world-class defenders age, AC Milan gradually declines. In the past 10 years, Ambrosini is almost the only player trained by Milan himself who can play in the game.

Players trained by the youth academy such as Odo and Borriello can only be recycled after performing in other teams.

Young talents like Antonini, Abate, and Donadell have no living space in AC Milan and can only go far away.

In recent seasons, AC Milan's practice of pursuing performance and giving up training new players has been particularly serious. From Favalli, Pancaro to Vieri, Amoruso and other big names that have expired or have begun to expire have landed in Milan, forcing a talented young man like Abate to go to other places to work hard.

The funniest thing is that the team's first pick last season was the old guy Favalli again, and the management still secretly laughed as if they had found a treasure.

Ancelotti never seems to have the idea of ​​​​giving young people a chance. Just like this important Champions League group match, Ancelotti filled the bench with superstars and old people. Although Ji was recruited into the first team, he didn't even enter the squad.

The question of who is responsible for the aging of the AC Milan lineup has been debated for some time. Although the AC Milan club has introduced some very "eye-catching" veterans in the transfer market, it is not that they have not introduced new players. When Inter Milan introduced Mikhailovich and Cesar, no one criticized too much. The key is the orientation of the head coach.

Gourcuff is very young, and his talent potential is recognized by everyone, but the player who was directly placed at the bottom of Ancelotti's plan as soon as he joined, although he can get a chance to play, the young French genius It has never been reused in AC Milan.

The first team is weak, but Milan's youth team is very experienced. In the latest training camp for the Italian youth team, in the squad announced by coach Casiraghi, the AC Milan youth team became the club with the most players.

The current batch of youth teams will be players of the right age for the 2008 Olympic Games. Another task for Casiraghi is to find talents. Damian, Di Gennaro, Paloski and others from the AC Milan youth training camp have all been recruited, but it is a pity that these young talents cannot currently be baptized in professional leagues.

At present, apart from Maldini, only Abbiati and Ambrosini are from the youth team of Milan. Unfortunately, both of them are old.

Milan's youth training and Milan's first-line team did not complete the transfer work well. The youth training players did not benefit their own families, but the fat water went to outsiders. Under the background of the financial crisis, it is difficult for Milan to spend a lot of money to buy players. This is a good opportunity for young players, but if Ancelotti does not make some changes, the effect may still be zero.

When Degan saw that AC Milan's so-called offense could only revolve around the midfield, he was really shaken. No matter how suitable Kaka was for AC Milan, how much love he got in AC Milan, but If there is no team, there is really no need for Kaka to stay.

No aggressiveness, no motivation, not even a little bit of vitality!

Digan was really afraid that if Kaka stayed in Milan for a few more years, he would become an old man.

Maybe going out is a better choice for Kaka?

Degan, who was still trying to dissuade Kaka from leaving the day before, suddenly had such an idea. From the perspective of a younger brother, Degan really couldn't bear to watch Kaka continue to suffer in AC Milan.

Didn't Berlusconi say that there is no need to exchange blood?

Then I will beat you to face reality!
