PS4: Who would have thought that Italy, known as the weakest in history, could qualify in the group one round ahead of schedule...Conte did a pretty job!

It is precisely because of this that Zhuang Mingge is puzzled by Carlos' decision. After all, under the influence of Zhuang Mingge's concept, Fiorentina can be said to be very generous in treating these meritorious players, so it is basically impossible for any players to choose to leave Purple Lily because of salary or personal treatment. There are many examples like Ronaldo and Shevchenko who decide to transfer and leave because of too much competitive pressure in the team.

In this way, Carlos's situation is very similar to Gabriel back then. They both dedicated the most golden years of their career to Fiorentina. After getting old, they were first willing to stay in the second line and took on the task of passing on and leading young players in the team. Then they had to choose because of the national team position...

Wait...Batty? National Team? World Cup? Could it be that Carlos made this decision not because he was unhappy in Fiorentina, but because of the World Cup to be held in Germany next year?

"Boss, I think this may have nothing to do with salary and benefits." Seeing that his boss seemed to have some clarity, Mourinho answered Zhuang Mingge's doubts, "You know, next year will be the World Cup year. Although Robert has been the best candidate for the Brazilian national team in the left-back position in the past ten years, in the talented Samba Army, he still needs enough playing time to ensure that he can occupy a place in Pereira's national team roster."

"Is it true that it's because of the World Cup? No wonder Robert plans to leave Fiorentina..." Zhuang Mingge, who had heard Mourinho's explanation and realized the root of the problem, said with a wry smile, "If this is the case, then we probably have no good way to let Robert stay. After all, with the ability he shows now, it is impossible to hold a firm position in Fiorentina."

As he grew older, Carlos, whose physical fitness began to decline, was no longer the super left back who could take over all offensive and defensive tasks on the left three years ago. He liked attacking frequently caused defensive losses due to excessive pressure during the game, which became the most direct reason why Carlos was eventually replaced by Zivo, who was younger and more stable in defense.

Without the temptation of the World Cup in Germany, Carlos himself would not have any idea of ​​being replaced by Zivo. Instead, he would teach his game experience and the defensive skills he has honed over the years. However, since the World Cup will be held in Germany next year, and Carlos does not want to miss the opportunity to compete in the World Cup for the third time on behalf of the Samba Legion. Therefore, when Fiorentina does not get enough performance opportunities, Carlos naturally hopes to play in a team that is not lacking in popularity and can play as the main player, so as to attract the attention of Brazilian coach Pereira.

Zhuang Mingge knew that although Brazil's football kingdom did not produce excellent defenders, in addition to Carlos, Pereira did have several good-strength candidates available in the position of left-back. For example, Maxville, who currently plays for Lazio, and Adriano, who was recommended by Zhuang Mingge to Ajax, is now well-known in European football, etc., are all very powerful players, and they are enough to attack Carlos's main position in the national team.

Although so far, Pereira is still mainly famous in player selection, and at the same time, he tries to ensure that the main members of the World Cup championship team in 2002 are on the national team roster, no one can guarantee that by this time next year, the head coach who once led Brazil to the top in the United States will suddenly change his employing strategy and take the same measures as in 2014 to kick those stars who are talented on the offensive end but weak in defense out of the World Cup roster with one kick?

After all, Pereira has had a record in this regard. At the World Cup eleven years ago, he was the head coach of the Brazilian national team and pushed Lai, who was the number one star in the Brazilian team, to the bench. Who can guarantee that Perei would not do this this time?

Therefore, in order to ensure that he can occupy a place in the national team and get the third chance to compete in the World Cup, Carlos had to choose to leave Fiorentina, where he had played for nearly nine years, and play in a club that can provide him with a main position. Otherwise, the former world's number one left-back would definitely choose to retire from Purple Lily.

You should know that clubs like Fiorentina that treat meritorious players well can be said to be rare in European football today. Except for AC Milan and Roma, two clubs, which are pretty good at this, most teams are the kind of teams who kick the players away after they lose their value. Few clubs can do this.

"Well, it seems that we will not only find a qualified substitute for Andre (Pirlo) this summer, but also introduce a substitute left back." After confirming that Carlos would definitely not be able to stay in Fiorentina, Zhuang Mingge had to say with regret, "With our current popularity in Fiorentina, it should be no problem to find a substitute left back, at least it will not be as difficult as when he found a substitute for Andre last year."

Although Fiorentina has been out of the Champions League semi-finals for two consecutive years, even so, Purple Lily is still the most powerful club in Europe. Many people can see that the reason why Fiorentina has failed to win the Saint-Berrede Cup in the past two years is mainly because of the lucky value and the slightly thin depth of the bench under the multi-line battle.
