road to victory

Chapter 349 Two Years

Jacques Santini is currently working at the Lyon Club and is the technical manager of the club. But to be honest, this is a false position without any real rights. After the Football Association contacted him, Santini agreed to join the national team without hesitation. Be an assistant coach.

In fact, his thinking is exactly the same as that of Fan Shang. He thinks that following the wind of the World Cup, France may have another chance to win the European Cup. This is what he fancyes, so he does not hesitate to give it to a player who is nearly 20 years younger than himself. Fan Shang came to be an assistant coach.

In this way, the goals of the two people who have not met yet have reached an agreement, and the following cooperation should go smoothly.

After meeting and chatting, it turned out to be like this. The goal of both of them is to win the European Cup. The two hit it off and agreed to work hard to win the European Cup.

Fan Shang plans to bring more people to Russia for the first game this time. After all, if there is a sudden injury, he will be prepared.

Not all the 23 players in the World Cup finals were recruited. First of all, Papin Vincent was no longer used. Vincent had already communicated with him. Now he has no desires. He is in semi-retirement in Bordeaux. State, how to ensure the state of the national team.

In terms of newcomers, Fan Shang recruited the up-and-coming Anelka. This time, Fan Shang also came for a private use, calling his confidant Sanuno into the national team, but fortunately, Anelka , Sanuno is not too conspicuous.

The team came to Russia, where the winter is coming and going, two days ahead of schedule. The local average temperature is about four to five degrees, which is not unacceptable.

After 90 minutes of fierce fighting in Moscow with Russia led by Tsar Mostovoi, France beat their opponents with a thrilling 3-2 victory.

The French players are still not in good shape for this game. After all, they just finished the league on the weekend, and it will be after a long-distance flight for another game like this in the middle of the week!But after all, Fan Shang got his own good start, a good start is half the success, so now Fan Shang has already started on the road to success.

Dividing line---
In the blink of an eye, two years passed quickly. Fan Shang had very few competition tasks in the French national team. In 99, Fan Shang originally thought that he could catch up with the Confederations Cup, but in the end he was not invited France, they invited Brazil.

Fan Shang's greatest achievement during his time in the national team was to lead the team to the first place in the European Cup qualifiers and successfully entered the European Cup finals.

However, there was also a lot of controversy during the period, because the team led by Vincent did not have a strong performance when facing the underdogs. The two victories against Andorra were 2:0, and the match against Armenia was even more unbearable. The away game narrowly won 3:2, so Fan Shang survived the doubts and survived until the real big game came.

However, in the past two years, Fan Shang spent most of his time performing his second job, the technical director of Bordeaux, and all transfer matters in Bordeaux had to be reviewed and even decided by Fan Shang.

Of course, although Fan Shang is constantly working behind the scenes, the results of Bordeaux in the past two years cannot be compared with Fan Shang personally leading the team.Luo Er's on-the-spot command ability has not improved after two years of training. He is really sitting on pins and needles in this position.

In two years, Bordeaux only won a league championship and a French Cup championship, and in the UEFA Champions League (in 2000, the three major cups were officially merged into two major cups) it also stopped in the group stage for two consecutive years.

But the little demon Mavericks from Bordeaux, who were bought by Fan Shang, have become the most sought-after items of various wealthy families.

Speaking of giants, in fact Bordeaux is also a giant, because Vincent participated in several meetings of giants led by Berlusconi and Murdoch that Theo mentioned before.

It’s just that the idea of ​​creating a self-made game was shattered by UEFA. Of course, Fan Shang also contributed to this. He passed the news to Platini, and then Platini used this news as a gift to UEFA. A nomination certificate.

In the past two years, the turnover of personnel in Bordeaux is still quite large.

Let's talk about retirement first. After the end of the 1999-2000 season, Dudir and Papin officially retired, and they can be regarded as persisting until the new millennium.

The rest started from the goalkeeper, Chilavert was very stable, and Frey, who was rented out, was favored by Inter Milan after the end of the 98-99 season, and finally transferred to Inter Milan for a price of 800 million US dollars.Fan Shang didn't think of this price at the time, but Inter Milan must be rich and powerful. The first quotation was 400 million, and Fan Shang unceremoniously raised the price.

However, this transfer did not allow Frey to escape the fate of being loaned out. He was loaned to Verona by the team in the first season of joining Inter Milan.

For the other goalkeepers, after Storari played as a substitute in Bordeaux for a year, he didn't like life in France very much. He returned to Italy in the second year. This time, his old club Perugia bought him back. It's very cheap, only 100 million US dollars, but compared to the 15 that Vincent introduced him back then, Bordeaux still made a profit.

Another player, Cudicini, enjoys his current life very much. He has become the second goalkeeper in Bordeaux with peace of mind, and Bordeaux's third goalkeeper has been called Alduni for four consecutive years. This man is The standard of wanting nothing, following so many champions, he lives happily every day.

On the rear line, Lizarazu, who was loaned to Athletic Bilbao in the 98-99 season to realize his dream, finally left. After the end of the loan, he moved to the Bundesliga squad Bayern Munich, but the transfer fee really made Vincent Sorry to mention, only 700 million US dollars, the Bundesliga's monetary tightening policy really made Fan Shang speechless.

But Fan Shang is not such a disadvantaged person. There are few deals worth tens of millions now, so Fan Shang has to find other places. Therefore, two young German players transferred from Bayern Munich's youth training camp to Bordeaux. In the youth training camp, there are two people named Philip Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Another transfer was central defender Gallas. After he played the main force in Bordeaux for a season, he was spotted by the professor. At the same time, the professor also took a fancy to Pires, so Arsenal also bleed a lot, with a package of 2200 million US dollars. Price, took away Pires and Gallas.Of course, there are still some zeros and zeros. If Arsenal can win the UEFA Champions League, their transfer fee will reach about 3000 million.

There was another Zebina in the back line who was given up by Vincent. His state was too unstable, so after Luo Er and the coaching staff unanimously approved, Bordeaux sold Zebina at a price of 300 million US dollars. Serie A team Cagliari.

　Pires is right, Frey was the one who went to Inter Milan before, there is a typo.
