Chapter 1405 Capello's distress

PS1: This is the update on Wednesday, a little late. I hope that all book friends don’t care too much about the update time. I’ll guarantee that I will not stop updating...

PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.

PS3: I would like to thank my book friend "Tianyuan Hanqi" for the reward.

There are more than three months left before the opening of the World Cup. It is logical that the head coaches of the national team have enough time to continue to inspect the local players they are paying attention to, and further adjust the 23-man roster to the German World Cup based on this, and then recruit some players in better shape to the national team, so that their team can appear on the stage of the World Cup with the strongest posture.

However, Capello has a different view on this. In the view of this world-renowned gold medal coach, this approach is very likely to destroy the chemistry that the team finally produced during the World Cup qualifiers, and then bring unnecessary chaos to the locker room and the team. Therefore, Capello's inspection has always been focused on players who are often recruited by him into the national team. Although other players are slightly involved, they are just Capello as an alternate. It can be said that unless an accident occurs, these people will not have the opportunity to represent Italy in this year's World Cup.

Vieri and Inzagi's names were also included in this list by Capello. In other words, these two veterans who have made great achievements in Italy actually did not get into Capello's eyes. Compared with them who are no longer at the peak, Tony and Girardino, who have similar technical styles to the two, are obviously more respected by this gold medal coach.

However, the sudden outbreak of Inzagi disrupted Capello's original plan. After experiencing the sluggish first half of the season, the veteran started to explode in February this year, scoring consecutive goals in various competitions, and the average number of goals in Pizza in the last ten games has even reached as many as 1.7!

The most important thing is that there are many strong clubs in the teams that fall under the gun of Inzagi. For example, AC Milan, who just lost to Fiorentina in the league, originally with Ancelotti's talent and the stability of Maldini and others, the Ross and Blacks who played at home would not lose so miserably even if they lost. However, they were extremely unlucky to meet Inzagi, who was in a state of great success, which made Super Pipo's name resound in the international football world again!

Moreover, not only did Inzaji score goals during this period, most of his goals were played as a substitute. This means that even if Capello put Inzaji on the bench, it could still pose a great threat to his opponent - after all, Inzaji, who already has the "super substitute" attribute, obviously has a greater advantage in this regard than those forwards who will not score goals once they sit on the bench.

It seems to be specially designed to highlight the excellence and excellence of Inzagi, several competitors in the national team began to fall into a trough during the period of his outbreak: Giladino, who joined AC Milan in a high-profile manner last summer, encountered a long goal drought after the winter break. Although he has already walked out, his performance is unstable; Casano left Spain after falling out with the Rome club, and now he can only waste his time on the bench of the Galaxy Battleship; although Dinatale has been stable as always, he is more of a tactical supplement to the team, and although his position with Inzagi is somewhat conflicting, it is not obvious.

As for Tavano and Yaqunta, let alone the likes of them. The reason why Capello fell in love with them was that he just wanted them to play a blue-collar role and create opportunities for other teammates to pull space. He didn't want them to take on many scoring tasks at all, and it didn't overlap with Inzaghi's position at all.

He has rich experience in the game, can score goals on the court, and is not weak against strong teams, and his attitude towards the game is extremely positive... Together these advantages, it naturally makes Inzagi much more reliable than other local strikers except Milito and Tony.

Should I stick to my own opinions and select players according to the original plan, or obey public opinion, and let Inzagi return to the national team according to the quality of the players' condition. Even a head coach like Capello, who will never easily shake his thoughts, will inevitably hesitate at this time. After all, Inzagi's outstanding performance during this period has made his call for returning to the national team more and more high, and Capello cannot choose to ignore it at all. Especially after Girardino and others showed signs of weakening their feet in the face of a strong team, this call became even stronger.

It is inevitable that such a situation will occur. Although he has won almost all the championship trophys at the club level, Capello is still a newcomer who has no honors at the national team level. The reason why this gold medal coach was able to quickly control the team after taking over the coaching stick left by Trapatoni was mainly because he had a good relationship with these international players when coaching in the two clubs of Fiorentina and Roma. Otherwise, Capello would have difficulty making the players fully obey his orders and arrangements.

Therefore, the better Inzagi performs in the club, Capello will naturally be more distressed. Because he knows that if he firmly turns Inzagi out in this situation, then it won’t take long for the Fiorentina team to become dissatisfied with this, thus shaking Capello’s dominance in the national team.

So, after hesitation for a while, Capello finally made a decision and took advantage of the new national team training opportunity to find Nesta in his office: "Alessandro (Nesta), I plan to let Inzagi re-enter the roster during the next national team training. So, I hope you can say hello to him in advance and ask if he is willing to continue playing for the country."

The reason why Capello did not mention Vieri's return to the national team is, on the one hand, because Vieri scored very few goals this season, and the existence of Tony and Milito squeezed his living space, making Vieri's road to returning to the national team has many difficulties.

On the other hand, and more importantly, Vieri was unfortunately injured in training because he seemed to be trying too hard to get the chance to participate in the World Cup. The diagnosis provided by the physiotherapy center showed that Vieri, who was damaged at the same time, had to rest until at least August this year before he could regain the game. This means that Vieri will be destined to miss the World Cup held in Germany this summer.
