I brush achievements in football

This kind of transfer is always very difficult, so Ji Ya is not in a hurry. After asking Mendes to communicate with Porto, he stayed in Portugal and kept communicating with other transfer personnel.

After Vidal was signed, the focus was on several aspects. The first is the introduction of James Rodriguez. The striker position has played very well, and at the same time, there is no problem of not adapting to the Premier League. As long as he is given the opportunity, he can grow up.And now is a good opportunity to introduce him. Porto is optimistic about him, but he can't promise anything to Ronaldo now. Ronaldo himself is a little anxious. When he was in South America, he was the main core of the team that could win the Copa Libertadores. Europe is not meant to be a substitute.

Under the influence of several aspects, the possibility of signing James is still very high.

As for other aspects, Nolito's contact went very smoothly. He is a free agent himself, and he also wants to perform well in another place. In recent years, Spanish players have performed well in England, which also gave him confidence. Only played two games in [-], so in Southampton, as long as there are games to play, the personal treatment requirements are not good.

As for another player that Ji Ya wants to introduce, it is a midfielder.

In theory, Southampton does not need to introduce a midfielder. The current configuration of Dembele, Schneiderlin, Drinkwater and Wharton is luxurious enough-at least in Ji Ya's opinion.

However, the scouting guide said that Dembele is actually the most effective defensive midfielder in Southampton now. Schneiderlin and Drinkwater still need to gradually adapt and perform better in the Premier League. , Wharton is old and lacks strength, and he can play in unimportant cup games. It is impossible to expect him to top at critical moments.

Hearing such a reminder, Ji Ya was startled—the strongest link in the lineup of feelings is so fragile.

Therefore, it is necessary to introduce a strong and experienced midfielder. According to the scout guide, the French midfielder Blaise Matuidi, who plays for the middle and lower reaches of Ligue [-] team Saint-Etienne, is a good target.

Matuidi is 24 years old and has already played in Ligue [-] for six seasons. Although he almost has to relegation every year, he has accumulated rich experience and the ability to deal with various opponents. He is not famous enough now , was only selected for the French national team last year, and he is a good candidate for signings.

Compared with Southampton's current main midfielder Dembele, Matuidi is not as good as Dembele in forward and receiving ability, but he is stronger in running and interception. Dembele himself He was born as an attacking midfielder. Although he was very low-key after joining Southampton, his forward ability will be shown from time to time. This is why Southampton has always conceded more goals, because in addition to retreating defenses Next, Dembele also has to often rush up to participate in the offense.

All three players in the midfield are attacking forward. You can play like this in the English Championship, but if you continue to play like this in the Premier League, you are looking for death.

It would be a pity if Dembele's offensive ability is not developed. Putting a stronger defensive player by his side can also make him perform better.

Moreover, Matuidi is not the kind of pure defensive player. He runs actively and covers a wide area. At the same time, his basic skills are quite solid, and his forward passing ability after taking the ball is quite good. The effect is often very large.

The most important thing is that his value will not be too high. It doesn’t take much money to poach people in Ligue [-]. Saint-Etienne is just a team that has been relegated all the year round. In the last three seasons, they have had two consecutive Ranked seventeen this season, only one step away from relegation, ranking tenth last season is considered good.

After playing in such a team for four years, Matuidi himself thought about starting over in a new place.

Although Southampton are newly promoted...but they have the Europa League to play!

This attraction is enough...

So while Kiya continued to wait in Portugal, good news came one after another.

First Southampton and Nolito signed a four-year contract, then Saint-Etienne accepted Southampton's £600 million offer, and Matuidi will soon sign with Southampton Yes, Klose also agreed to join Southampton...

Blind, Kovac, Matuidi, Willian, Klose, Nolito, Vidal - here are Southampton's signings so far this season, two visa-free, the other five combined It cost £950 million.

The transfer negotiations between Lallana and Lambert also went very smoothly. Although Liverpool didn't have a lot of money to pack these two people, they finally paid a lot of money, paying a full 500 million pounds. This pair of partners was given.

"So now we have earned more than 2000 million yuan in the transfer market..." Ji Ya was thinking in his heart, this is not a small amount of money, you must know that if Southampton is relegated this season, they will get a lot of money in the Premier League. The broadcast fee is less than 4000 million pounds.

"However, Ronaldo's transfer fee is probably not that low... What an exaggeration, we are newly promoted, do we need to spend so much money to buy someone?"

Ji Ya sometimes feels very distressed when he thinks about it, but since the scouting guide said that such a candidate is very useful, it is worth spending a little more money, just like spending 600 million on Dembele last season, It's a bit scary, but what about the final effect?

Only with good players can we have good results.

If it wasn't for Dembele to stabilize the overall situation in the midfield last season, Lallana might not have had the opportunity to grow so quickly. The reason why he was able to overwhelm Mkhitaryan and become the main force in the later stage and perform well is because of him The characteristics are more in line with Dembele.

And with more passers in the backcourt, a shooter like Lambert will have more opportunities.

On the surface, Southampton now has enough strikers and midfielders, and Matuidi and Ronaldo may not necessarily be needed, but in fact, Southampton really lacks this kind of good experience in the top league. It is always beneficial to have a few more players.

"J Luo is the only one left. When his affairs are settled, we can also prepare for the new season." Ji Ya thought silently in his heart.

Mendes has been gone for three days without any news, but Ji Ya is not in a hurry, because he knows that once such a manager finds something that is more beneficial to him, he will definitely work hard to do it.

Just be responsible for paying for it yourself.
