Chapter 360 New season, new atmosphere (2)

After receiving Zhuang Mingge's favor, the new official Maldini quickly announced the list of the new national team.

Due to the poor performance of the Italian national team in the European Cup in England, many international players who participated in the European Cup disappeared from the roster announced by Lao Ma. For example, Parma veterans Abroni and Musi, who have always been regarded as the direct line of Saki by the Italian media, and Costakuta, whose competitive state has dropped sharply but still controls the main central defender, have all lost to this national team roster.

This time, Fiorentina, which has been ignored by Sachi, finally gained its due position in the national team, and the main goalkeeper Tordo was favored by Old Maldini; in terms of defenders, in addition to Lanna who has already transferred to Inter Milan, Nesta, Ferrara and Bilindeli were all selected, while Zambrota was too young and Panucci was also in the right-back position of the national team, so unfortunately it was not selected; in terms of midfield, because Purple Lily introduced too many foreign players, and the departure of local players such as Kripa and Tacinadi, this time, only Dibiagio entered the roster. In addition, with Philip Inzagi on the front line, Fiorentina has a total of six players this time. Moreover, according to the information revealed by Lao Ma in the interview, if nothing unexpected happens, these international players in Fiorentina will occupy an important position in his national team.

However, while recruiting a large number of new players, Old Maldini did not overestimate it. Paolo Maldini, Dino Baggio, Albertini and other veteran internationals were still on the roster. After all, their abilities and competitive state are trustworthy, and it is obviously inappropriate to exclude them.

As for Robert Baggio and Paliuca, who have been deliberately suppressed by Saki in the past two years, the former impressed Maldini with his outstanding performance in Florence, while the latter made Ma realize that the former Italian No. 1 national goalkeeper was still at the peak of his career, so this time the two finally returned to the national team that had been away for two years.

The role of the roster announced this time is more of a symbolic meaning, marking that Old Maldini is determined to build a brand new Italian national team with the Italian youth team that completed the three consecutive European Youth Championships.

After all, Lao Ma's first national team game will not start until early September, and the Italian national team's first World Cup qualifier will have to wait until October 5th...

Before this, the new internationals of these national teams will have to participate in summer training camps and a series of friendly matches to welcome the new season in their respective clubs.

For the national youth team, Plandelli learned the truth from the news that Football Association Chairman Perona intentionally or unintentionally leaked, and naturally understood the huge role Zhuang Mingge played in his becoming the head coach of the national youth team this time. He was grateful to Zhuang Mingge, while he was determined to do a good job, he also planned to repay Zhuang Mingge. However, the smart Plandelli did not express his gratitude to Zhuang Mingge on the surface, but instead leaned slightly towards Zhuang Mingge's Fiorentina, which was under Zhuang Mingge when selecting players.

After all, it is impossible to make a mistake like Prandelli, and he is at most biased towards Fiorentina when he needs to make a choice among some players with similar strength.

And this degree of tendency is enough for Zhuang Mingge, a player who is against the will of gold fingers.

Desanctis, Zambrota, Perotta, C Zanetti, Gattuso, Andre Pirlo, Dinatale, Vieri... A group of young players from Fiorentina were selected for the youth team roster, plus Luca Tony who was loaned to Vicenza and Inzagi who played in Amsterdam. Florence quietly occupied half of the Italian national youth team.

After talking about the national team, let us now turn our attention to Florence.

More than a month after announcing his role as head coach in Florence, Capello has finally ushered in his first training session in the Renaissance capital, where he will hold the team to participate in a series of warm-up matches to prepare for the upcoming Italian Super Cup.

Only a few days after the training camp began, the decisive Capello divided the players into two categories, namely the main players in his mind and the substitute players who acted as rotation.

In terms of goalkeepers, the main force is naturally Francisco Toldo. Capello is optimistic about this young goalkeeper with a tall and long arms, believing that he is enough to become the mainstay of the team in the next ten years.

As for Toldo's substitute, he is still Guadalburn, who is only 22 years old. This young man is very strong. According to Mullensten and others, he can serve as the main goalkeeper of the mid- and lower-level teams in Serie A. Although Guadalburn has not received many opportunities to play in the past few years, he did not express his dissatisfaction with this position. He is very content with the position of substitute goalkeeper. He is diligent and never slackened when he has the opportunity to play. Capello also praised Guadalburn's professional attitude.

In terms of full-backs, Robert Carlos, who transferred from Inter Milan, quickly conquered Capello with his performance and took over the main left-back position left after Lanna left. Fortunato, who defeated the disease, although his skills and consciousness are still there, he can only serve as the Brazilian's substitute due to his decline in physical fitness; the right-back position is Zambrota and Bilindeli, who compete for work. Capello intends to determine the starting position based on the specific opponent and the competitive state of the two.

After Filicano left Feilencui for the main position, the central defender combination of Ferrara and Nesta had been completely determined. There were also green evergreens on the bench, Uncle Virjoward and young player Jap Stam. The old man had rich experience and accurate judgments, and the less powerful body shape could provide an effective supplement to the team's defense line.

In the midfield, after Fernando Redondo arrived, the departure of Tachinadi and Kripa was not so important. The Argentinian's ability can completely make up for the vacancies of the two people's departure. In addition to the original stars such as Effenberg, Rui Costa, Davis and Djokaf, Dibiagio, Tomasi, Fiorentina's midfield strength has not declined but increased.

On the front line, any of the Fiorentine four-man gangs composed of Batistuta, Ronaldo, Philip Inzagi and Vieri is enough to scare the Serie A team. Glencier, who has transferred from the Danish League, can provide more changes to the team as a surprise.
