Football Giants

Yang Huan solemnly said that he would announce some decisions. Everyone here, especially those who didn't know, watched Master Huan with concern, and the entire Glory Plaza suddenly became silent.

The main platform is located on the steps of the main gate of the stadium, which is relatively high and overlooks the people on the square.

This made Young Master Huan very proud of himself.

He likes the feeling of being looked up to by everyone. It's really cool and enjoyable!

"First of all, we need to clarify that, so far, all the news about the transfer of our Southampton players is not true. We have not reached an agreement with any team on player transfers, so fans can rest assured!"

As soon as Yang Huan said this, there were some voices below.

Obviously, there is a problem with Yang Huan's words.

Yes, maybe Southampton did not reach an agreement with other teams, but isn't there no contact and negotiation?

He didn't say, this is very doubtful!

"I know that in the past few years, Southampton has been poached by many big teams. Our player loss is very serious, but at that time, we had to make such a painful decision in order to build a new stadium."

"But now, our new stadium has been completed. From now on, we in Southampton can proudly tell everyone and tell the world that we are determined and confident to retain our core players!"

As soon as Yang Huan's words fell, the audience immediately applauded!

"Okay, that's awesome!"

"Young Master Huan said well, that's what we want to do!"

"It's great, I've been waiting for the team to do this!"

"Isn't it? Sell the core every year, when will you sell it?"

"Master Huan, you are so awesome, I love you!"

The Saints fans are indeed very emotional about this declaration of the club.

In the past few years, the team has sold people every year, and they have been selling stars.

From captain Adam Lallana, defending pillar Benatia, midfield star Stroman, and later Neymar, Gareth Bale, Vidal, etc., Southampton stars sold one after another.

All Saints fans saw it in their eyes and hurt in their hearts.

If these players are still there, how strong is Southampton today?

Especially looking at this group of players, all of them shine in other teams, which makes the Saints fans feel sorry.

Well now, the team has decided to keep the core players, which proves that Southampton intends to do a big game.

From ancient times to the present, I have never seen a team that relies on sellers to sell into giants.

Yang Huan raised his hands on the main stage and signaled everyone to be quiet.

When the scene became silent again, Master Huan continued.

"I solemnly announce here that we have signed a brand new contract extension with five players including Neuer, Tony Cross, Varane, Matic and Sturridge, in the next five years. And in six years, these players will continue to play in Southampton!"

As soon as Yang Huan said this, the audience suddenly thundered with applause.

Who is Neuer?

There is not one of the strongest goalkeeper in the world!

There has always been a legend that Bayern Munich wants to take Neuer away, but now, the team's contract renewal will undoubtedly tell all the diggers, you all go!

The same situation is also the case with Tony Cross, the midfielder of Southampton, who is also the object of all the giants' teams competing for corners, but now, Southampton is clearly determined to keep this midfielder.

Varane is the backbone of the team’s defense. This season, whether in the Premier League or in the Champions League, he has performed quite steadily. He is currently the main central defender of the French national team. Almost everyone is optimistic about it and thinks he will be The most powerful top central defender in Europe in the next decade.

Renewing Varane's contract undoubtedly means that Southampton's defense core will not be empty.

As for Matic and Sturridge, the former is the barrier of Southampton midfield this season. Both offensive and defensive are quite good. They are an important member of the team and are valued by Bielsa, but because they have not been able to be the absolute main force. So there have been rumors of leaving the team, but now he has also renewed his contract.

Sturridge is currently the number one striker in England and the number one scorer in England this season. He has scored 21 goals in the Premier League and his performance is quite eye-catching.

But Sturridge is in the same situation as Matic. He is strong enough and relatively young, but in the fierce competition in Southampton, he has not been able to stand alone as the absolute main force, so he is also tempted by the outside world.

For example, Arsenal, there have always been rumors that Arsenal will introduce Sturridge.

However, now that Southampton has renewed Sturridge, at least prove that he will continue to stay with the team for some time to come.

The fans are undoubtedly ecstatic to hear these exciting news from Yang Huan.

However, in the eyes of many reporters at the scene, especially those with a keen sense of news, Yang Huan's words are still suspicious.

For example, Suarez, who is now spread fiercely from the outside world.

The Uruguayan striker is the most dazzling killer in Europe this season, the Premier League striker king, and Sturridge, together with Sturridge, formed an amazing double striker, currently being poached by Barcelona and Real Madrid.

But in Yang Huan's renewal list, there is no his name!

But this does not mean that Suarez will transfer. After all, he has only transferred from Liverpool to the Saints for a year. He signed a five-year contract before. Now it has just begun, and it is indeed early to discuss the renewal.

But stars like Hazard, Modric, Harvey Martinez, David Alaba, Pogba, and James Rodriguez have all received attention and poaching from the outside world.

Does that mean that these players who have not renewed are likely to leave the team?

When the reporter raised his hand and threw the question to Yang Huan, the young master Huan in front of the podium laughed.

"Please don’t over-interpret it. In fact, we have officially started the contract renewal work about three months ago. At present, many players’ contract renewals are still under negotiation and no consensus has been reached, but we are very confident. Able to keep players!"

But Yang Huan's answer was still not satisfactory.

"Master Huan, can you elaborate on the transfer strategy for Southampton this summer?"

One reporter simply asked his own question straightforwardly.

Yang Huan laughed, "I definitely can't tell the specific transfer strategy. If I tell you who we are after, wouldn't it expose our goal?"

There was a burst of laughter below, but they all felt that Master Huan was somewhat suspicion of evasiveness.

"I can only say that we are actively operating the team's transfers based on the team's current problems exposed this season, the team's weaknesses and shortcomings, and continue to strengthen the team's overall strength!"

Speaking of this, Yang Huan changed his head, "I also want to reassure all Saints fans that our Southampton will definitely not be the kind of short-lived team. This year's Champions League and league champions will only be Our successful start."

"Me, as well as all our management, all the coaching staff, all the players and staff, we Southampton up and down, have extremely strong confidence and determination, we will not lie down on the past merits. Live!"

"Even, I can say now that all the Champions League champions and league champions are over!"

"What we are looking at now is the new season. We must continue to maintain our competitiveness in the new season, and maintain our core competitiveness in the Premier League, the Cup, and the Champions League. We must continue to face more champions. More honors initiate a stronger and more powerful impact!"

This remark of Yang Huan once again won the applause of countless Saints fans in the audience.

Many reporters at the scene also captured what Yang Huan meant in and out of words, that is, Southampton is about to change!

By convention, there are two ways to deal with a situation like Southampton, one is like Inter Milan.

The large-scale contract renewal heroes live on the past merits.

But what is going on with Inter Milan now is clear at a glance.

Another is to actively seek change, boldly break the tactical framework formed by the team in the past, and make adjustments to the team.

But the latter will bring high risk and high investment.

But it is also normal, because during the Champions League final, Simeone’s Atletico Madrid successfully limited Southampton’s offense. This is equivalent to teaching all professional coaches in Europe a lesson and telling them that they will play in the future. Apprentice, just follow us!

This is a very dangerous thing for Southampton.

Stronger than Barcelona, ​​after the Grand Slam, the tactics were figured out, isn't it still disabled?

Not only Barcelona, ​​but also Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid, aren’t they all being hanged directly in the Champions League after their tactics have been figured out? Completely lost the pride of the giants and the European champions?

Therefore, both options have their pros and cons, depending on how the club chooses.

From what Yang Huan said, it is obvious that the saints have to choose the latter one.

So, judging from Yang Huan's tone, it is a foregone conclusion that Ibrahimovic, Drogba and other veterans will leave the Saints.

Perhaps, from a perceptual point of view, Ibrahimovic has just brought the first Champions League champion in club history to the Saints, but he turned his head and sold him, which is really unreasonable. It may even be unacceptable to many fans.

But from a rational point of view, from the point of view of the club operator, this kind of operation is reasonable and should be.

Selling Ibrahimovic, overturning Southampton's offensive patterns and routines over the past four years, and re-establishing a new offensive lineup will undoubtedly break and overthrow everyone's understanding of the Saints this season.

In the new season ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Atletico Madrid's tactics against Southampton will work, who knows?

And to some extent, Ibrahimović’s salary is too high and his age is too old. Suarez and Sturridge have performed well for a season, and there is no problem in succession, to retain the Swedish center. , It will only aggravate the hidden dangers and contradictions in the locker room, it is better to sell him altogether.

Judging from the performance of the Premier League, with Suarez replacing Ibrahimovic, Southampton will become more dynamic and the offense will be sharper.

It’s just that Ibrahimovic’s deterrence and dominance in the frontcourt are lacking, replaced by Suarez’s type of striker, how to adjust the tactics of the entire midfield in Southampton, and even follow it. The turnover and changes of the coming players are all things the coaching staff should consider carefully.

But, at least there is nothing wrong in the general direction!

From Yang Huan's sentence, never sticking to his past merits, it can be seen that his youth, drive and determination are all determining the future development direction of Southampton.

But, who knows, how will he and the entire management team of Saints operate this transfer?
