Chapter 72 Team Integration

After more than half a month of training, Southampton's newly joined players have gradually been recognized by others.

Klein is the best performer among the rookies. Although he is young, he can run very well. He can go up and down. At the same time, he has good technique and confrontation ability. He is fast and has excellent physical fitness, just like a sports car. , can go up and down continuously.

A full-back with this kind of talent is very rare. Southampton has not had this kind of full-back in the Premier League before. The only one who is somewhat close to him is the little tiger Walcott, but Walcott is faster. , but in terms of pressing and defense, it is far inferior to Klein.

Like many top offensive full-backs, Klein was born as a striker, so his foot skills and forward awareness are good, but his shooting skills are not very good, and he is better at passing the ball to his teammates.

Navas is one of the only three internationals in the team - the remaining two are Dembele and Mkhitaryan - as the Costa Rica international, although he is only 1.8 meters five, he is very good at playing high. A little uncomfortable, but soon, after training, he showed his advantages.

Although Navas is only 1.8 meters tall, his wingspan is long enough. Compared with the 1.9 meters goalkeeper, he actually suffers not too much. Whether it is a ground save or a high-altitude ball, he can show his level.

"Boss, I don't care if I play as a substitute or not. After all, I will be 34 soon, but I need to pass the competition." Davis found Ji Ya and said to him.

"Of course, Kelvin, you have always been an important part of the club... I have never doubted your ability. As a goalkeeper, it is necessary to reserve two excellent goalkeepers." Ji Ya replied with a smile.

Davis nodded. In fact, he also knew that Navas was a full ten years younger than him, and he also played the main force in North America for a season. Said, but also to appear more fair point.

The main force obtained through competition for employment is of course more cherished.

So in the next training, Davis also trained very seriously. 34 years old is not very old for a goalkeeper. They can still receive trial training requests from Premier League teams.

Moussa Dembele didn't seem too eye-catching on the training ground. However, in physical training, he showed his outstanding ability. I have to admire, this is indeed a guy who has played in the Champions League.

Southampton can buy such a player, it also proves how good Southampton is now...

Instead of looking at the future of Southampton, why doesn't Dembele go to a Premier League team?Even if you can't go to a wealthy club, it's not difficult to go to an ordinary Premier League team!

Drinkwater, on the other hand, seemed heartless. As soon as he was an optimist, he kept joking with others on the Southampton training ground. Others also liked this optimistic and cheerful young man, and he was on the field. That kind of excellent forward ability also makes other players feel quite good.

As a player from Manchester United, Drinkwater does not have much arrogance. After all, he is 20 years old and has not played for Manchester United. Instead, he is constantly being loaned around. Under such circumstances, he can still have arrogance. Damn it.

The arrival of these two people made Schneiderlin feel a lot of pressure. Kiya went to chat with him, emphasizing that this is not to replace his position, but to strengthen the team's midfield and the future of Southampton It is the Premier League, so you will definitely face the competition of many top players. It is useless to be afraid of competition. Only by decisively participating in the competition can you become even better.

Schneiderlin, who played football abroad at a young age, is quite clear about this truth.

Austin has nothing to say. Lambert can do what he can. Lambert knows that he has an extra substitute, but he doesn't care. With his state, the substitute is just in case.

Ji Ya also greeted him and Giroud in advance. Every game in the new season is very important, and the multiple substitutes are to allow them to better focus on important games.

Dixon showed his forward ability on the training ground. As a left-back who performed well in the League One last season, he is also very satisfied to be able to play in the Championship in the new season, and basically there is no one in this position. Competing with him, Mills barely played the main team last season. This season, in the British Championship, the possibility of him playing the main team is too small. At most, he will play in the cup.

Jenkinson is the first substitute for the right wing and central defender. Although this defender is young, his level is not low. His height, running, and confrontation ability are quite good, and he is still young. He only has a high level. The players trained together and played occasionally, which also gave Klein and the two centre-backs some respite.

For the newly joined players, Southampton's old players also quickly accepted them, and through training, they can perceive their status in the new season-the two full-backs will definitely be the main force, Navas It will attack the position of the old captain Davis, Dembele can occupy the main midfielder, and the other midfielder will be competed by Schneiderlin and Drinkwater. They can be substitutes, but they are not too young, and it is normal to play as substitutes.

Austin is a rotation player on the forward line.

Everyone's position is very clear.

"Now there is a problem...Perry has retired, the possibility of Walton playing the main force in the new season is too low, plus Davis...I think he will be competed by Navas soon, I need a The third captain, so that when Davis is not playing, he can wear the captain's armband." Ji Ya said to Benali.

"This is not easy to handle. Our veteran players are basically unable to play the main force... Except for the old guys, the most experienced players are Schneiderlin and Lallana." After thinking about it, Benelli explain.

"None of them... It's not that they are too young. Captains have nothing to do with age, but only with prestige, character and ability." Ji Ya shook his head.

Benelli nodded in agreement. Schneiderlin and Lallana are indeed qualified enough. It has been three years since Schneiderlin moved to Southampton, while Lallana has been in the first team for four years. Apart from veterans such as Davies and Walton, no one has been in this Southampton team longer than them.

However, Schneiderlin is shy and reticent, while Lallana is more evasive. Their personalities are indeed not suitable to be captains.

"I think you already have the candidate for the third captain?" Benelli said.

Ji Ya smiled and didn't answer.
