Chapter 14 Planning ahead
Mr. Yang's words "This may be the most suitable formation for the first team" gradually spread within the club, and even Mancini had heard such words.
In the league, Mancini uses more of the 4312 formation. Whenever the situation is difficult, Mancini always thinks of Mr. Yang's words. Is it really a problem with the formation?
"How did he react when he heard this?" Morati asked Blanca.
"I was stunned for a moment, then frowned and shook my head."
"Then what?"
"Then I discussed the winter signing issue with him and told him the qualifying goal. I asked him how he thought Monterlivo was, which is one of the few midfielders in the transfer market who are willing to transfer. The transfer fee is 12 million euros. Our head coach did not have much objection."
Morati smiled and said, "He didn't say this is a player from the Chinese. Is this a problem?"
"No, Mancini is very calm. It seems that he does feel that he is missing a better midfielder. The effect of using Stankovic before was not good."
"Yes, but do you think he will adjust the formation to what Master Yang said?"
"It's hard to say this. I think it's 60% not possible, because you also understand Mancho's stubborn personality. If the current formation can complete the task well, he will never adjust it."
Hearing this, Morati rubbed his eyebrows: "I'm really conflicted now. If Mancini can reverse the current situation, should he change the coach?"
"Mr. Chairman, I think..." Blanca paused. "I don't think Mancini can turn the situation around now, and I think his Champions League quarterfinals are hard to pass. If I were you, I would have let him leave the team in February."
Morati watched Blanca finish his words without saying anything. The conflict between Mancini and Blanca has been around for a long time. Mancini believes that there should be more transfer funds and power, and Blanca is a piece used by Morati to restrain Mancini from spending money indiscriminately.
Now that Blanca saw that Mancini had a desperate situation, she was ready to take advantage of the situation and kick people out without hesitation. However, this is not what Moratti hopes to see.
"How is Adriano doing?" The former King Meazza has now stepped down from the altar and has become a regular visitor to a bar and brothel. He has only played 10 games this season and scored two goals. Compared to his previous 40 games, it is simply a difference between flowers and shit. Last season, Adriano was loaned back to Sao Paulo on a short-term loan, which not only did not improve, but made him even more severely and slip further into the abyss.
Morati sighed deeply, and Blanca didn't say anything for a long time. The Brazilians' desire to list or rent it has reached the point where no one cares about it.
"No ball will bid him or want to rent him. Even if we don't need them to pay their wages," Blanca said.
Morati nodded. It seemed that the Brazilian could not leave the club in winter. Not only him, but Mancini also completely lost confidence in Adriano. "Let's do it first, depending on the situation. I hope the Chinese can have some solutions when they take office."
Blanca smiled bitterly. The Chairman was a little poisoned by the Chinese. Could this Chinese be God? Can it solve all the problems? Adriano may not even believe in God now.
Blanca flipped through the notebook and continued: "Mancho gave me a list of signings, hoping that the club can add a powerful striker. Among them are Dzeko of Newcastle, Manchester United's Tevez, Barcelona's Henry and Etoo."
Morati was almost irritated. The hot strikers in 2008 were probably on Mancini's purchasing list.
Blanca shook her head and said, "Henry will definitely not go back to Italy, but Barcelona is very inclined to exchange Eto Oga for our Ibrahimovic. Tevez has just transferred to Manchester United, so it is even more impossible. Dzeko, a young man, has increased his chances of playing this season, and he has no intention of transfer..."
Morati waved his hand and interrupted Blanca: "Don't mention the striker who has exceeded 15 million. And I think Mario Balotelli, who was transferred to the first team, is very good? He scored several wonderful goals."
Blanca shrugged with a strange expression: "Mario told me that he felt better with Coach Yang. So he was very active in helping the U19 youth team play the game, with the goal of winning the treble championship in the Youth Army."
Uh... Morati almost slipped out of the chair. What is this logic? Why is this Chinese person everywhere? Just as he thought of this, Blanca seemed to hear Morati's voice and said, "Actually, Coach Yang also gave me a transfer list in private."
Well? Morati thought to himself that there is something about Chinese people in it?
"Coach Yang said that this is just a personal help. I hope it will be helpful to the ball. Whether to adopt it depends entirely on us. These players guarantee that they are worth the money, and they happen to be an agency with him, and the price is easy to negotiate."
Mr. Yang's agency is now one of the world's well-known brokerage companies. Unlike some famous brokers (such as Mourinho's agent Mendes), the brokerage company is completely group-based and has a great influence in Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa, and South America. It is said that the person in charge of this brokerage company is Mr. Yang's wife.
Morati recalled the gentle oriental woman sitting next to Master Yang. She couldn't help but sigh, Master Yang is such a blessing.
"Tell me about the people on the roster." Morati also wanted to know what kind of players Mr. Yang would bring to Inter Milan.
"Winner Jovitic, 20 years old, is now Belgrade guerrillas, scoring 17 goals in 27 games last season. The price is about 10 million. Chelsea, Real Madrid and other teams are observing this player. Coach Yang said that Fiorentina has quoted 12 million and is preparing to get some of this player during the winter break."
Morati touched his chin and bought a young forward for 12 million yuan, but it took a lot of courage. However, this Chinese...
Seeing Moratti's unanimous expression, Blanca continued: "Winner Juan Mata, 20 years old, Valencia has played 33 games last season, and the contract has expired in half a year. If you need it, you can talk to Mata and you can offer a quote with Valencia now."
"How much?"
"6 million. This young man's contract expired at Real Madrid, but the team did not renew his contract. Only Mr. Yang's agency gave him a contract and helped him find the club. I think he would not refuse a chance to repay his kindness."
Morati had already completely believed in Mr. Yang's vision. To be precise, it should be the vision of the scout team behind Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang's agency not only has its own agent, but also has its own scout team, and is also a strategic partner of the senior football game FM.
Who else?
"Forward Lorent, 25 years old, is now in Villarreal. The agency has 20% ownership of the player. The quotation now costs about 10 million yuan, and the agency's money can be paid out on a delay."
"What do you think?"
"I'm wondering if I'll show Coach Mancini. Let him make a decision?"
Morati nodded. "The transfer fee is 25 million, you will discuss it."
Seeing Blanca withdraw from the office, Morati lit a cigar and sank her body into the sofa. The money for the winter transfer was lent to him by his brother Gianmarco Morati. It was said that it was borrowed, but in fact it was to give it to him. The brother had no requirements for him and always gave it with all his heart. However, the situation cannot be like this forever!
What impressed Mr. Yang the most? The last sentence: "In addition to honor, but also wealth I can bring to the team."
This wealth is reflected in all aspects.
Christmas is coming soon, and the Youth Army can easily celebrate the festival. However, Mancini is not so lucky. In order to change the league's decline, Mancini adopted Blanca's roster and finalized the transfer matters between Monterlivo and Lorent. The price of 22 million yuan became a hurricane in the Italian transfer market.
However, Berlusconi, next door, seemed to be unwilling to let Morati have a better life. He introduced Brazilian central defender Thiago Silva for Mourinho, and what was even more surprising was England midfielder David Beckham.
Although the transfer cost is not as much as Inter Milan, Beckham's popularity has won AC Milan a lot of popularity. Many girls from the "Lion Guardians" are also struggling. If Master Yang really becomes Inter Milan's head coach, where should he stand? Support Beckham or Master Yang? They are all handsome, what should I do?
While the clubs were busy transferring, Yang's youth team also began to prepare for the U19 Champions League. Inter Milan's youth team had entered the knockout round, and the first opponent was Liverpool. Given the intensity of the three games, Yang extended his hand to Inter Milan's u17 team, and several outstanding players were seconded.
The head coach of u17 has cried so hard that I won’t play if you play games? But he could only express helplessness, because Mr. Yang’s behavior was strongly supported by the club. From Morati and Paulillo to his subordinates, these sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys seemed extremely enthusiastic. Mr. Yang’s popularity is beyond imagination.
However, Yang Shi did not disappoint these people's expectations, defeating Liverpool 5-2 at home and away and advancing to the semi-finals. His second opponent is Ajax, who is known for his youth team in Europe.
On February 21, Yang's team defeated his opponent in the last minute at Arena Stadium in Amsterdam, 3-2. Inter Milan, as the only youth team representing Italy, advanced to the final. The opponent in the final was Barcelona youth team from La Macia.
At this time, even Italian Football Association Chairman Abette sent a congratulatory message to Yang Shi’s team.
On the next day, Moratti's happiness had not yet passed, and another game almost collapsed Inter Milan's fans. Inter Milan was defeated by Sporting Lisbon at home 1-3. The Portuguese team scored three crucial away goals. Inter Milan was almost kicked out of the Champions League.
Mr. Yang, who was watching the live broadcast in the Netherlands, received a call from Italy an hour after the game.
