Chapter 257
Because of the European Cup and the restructuring of the league, this year's Serie A has really begun to be moved to September, but the schedule has already been released, and before the start of the league, Cagliari still has an Italian Super Cup to play.
The annual league title and Coppa Italia title still has a title to contend for before the start of the season. Last season's title was Cagliari, and the Coppa Italia title was Lazio.
In the first case, the Italian Super Cup will be held at home to the league champions, and in the second case, it will be held overseas. For example, last year’s Coppa Italia was held in New York, USA. Unfortunately, this year, it did not go overseas.
Some people who disliked Li Yi and Cagliari gave this Italian Super Cup the words "least interesting".
Although Cagliari's main lineup has not changed much, in the eyes of many people, Tony's departure will greatly affect Cagliari's attack power. As the Serie A Golden Boot, Toni contributed [-] league goals last season.
As for Lazio, the biggest contributor to Lazio's ranking in the upper reaches in recent years is Mancini. Now Mancini has started his dream of a wealthy family, and the core of the defense has also left.
In fact, it is certain that Lazio's strength has declined seriously, but if it is said that Cagliari's strength has also declined, Li Yi will definitely scoff at it.
Indeed, Toni performed very well last season and took on Cagliari's goal of scoring goals, but this was because Toni got enough chances. On the other hand, if he gave Milito enough chances, Li Yi believed that Agen could do the same.
But there is one thing Li Yi needs to admit. Last season, Milito is definitely not as good as Tony, but after a season of adaptation and improvement, Milito will definitely not be inferior to Toni.
Besides, the two play different ways. Toni is tall and strong and is a typical high center forward, while Milito's header is definitely not as good as Toni's. Therefore, Cagliari will definitely make some adjustments in tactics this season.
Moreover, he has a more intuitive understanding of the strength of his team with the eyes of a scout. After a season, the Cagliari players have grown very frighteningly.
Let's just talk about Franck Ribery, the Frenchman's current strength has reached the S level, which is enough to be the core of any giant.
Milito's strength came to S-, and Tony also broke through to S- in the middle of last season. Don't forget, Milito was only A when he was good, and Tony was A+.
But if you really want to say that the one who has improved the most is the young player. Montolivo originally only had C. After a season of training, this young player came to B and was promoted to a higher level. Therefore, Li Yi is going to give Montolivo more opportunities this season.
Guardiola's strength has dropped by a small level because of his age. He is currently S-, but the veteran has many hidden attributes. Guardiola can still be reused this season.
Speaking of the decline in the strength of several veterans, this is also the helplessness of the veterans, but the decline in strength is not much, and Hierro, who has the largest span, only dropped from A+ to A-.
Captain Conte has reached the peak of his potential A+. From Conte's progress this season, we can actually see the efforts of Captain Cagliari this season.
Then Rami and Chiellini have reached B+ in strength, Barzagli has broken through to A-, Maicon is the most improved A+ in terms of full-backs, Cassetti B+, Balzaretti B+, Criscito B-.
Adding Valbuena A-, Di Natale B+, Palacio B-, goalkeeper Cech S-, Cagliari's overall strength can be said to have risen instead of falling.
But these people except Li Yi were invisible, so Li Yi was more confident and looking forward to the upcoming new season.
Of course, Li Yi's expectation is also the UEFA Champions League, which is the stage for the rich, the arena for the strong, and the honor that everyone dreams of.
After Li Yi accompanied Bellucci for a few days, Cagliari's players also returned one after another. With the return of the players, the training schedule for the new season also increased.
However, for the players, their return also represents the beginning of suffering. With such a long season, players not only need to train in games, but also exercise restraint in all aspects.
Indulgence is inevitable after the holiday, especially for young players. In one season, these little guys have grown from unknown to famous, and they have transformed from young players to professional players and even stars.
You know, this summer, Li Yi has seen news about his apprentices in newspapers or on the Internet, for example, Lamy, who called a girlfriend who was almost 20 years older than him.
For this reason, many media ridiculed Lamy for looking at his head coach. The full-name Italian goddess is 18 years older than Li Yi.
At that time, Li Yi was depressed when he saw the news. Lamy did have special hobbies, but he was normal. Unfortunately, from the current point of view, Li Yi couldn't explain it. Of course, Li Yi didn't bother to explain it.
Besides, Maicon, this guy had a hot fight with a Brazilian supermodel during the holiday, and the two even staged a passionate scene on the beach, but according to Brazil's situation, this is actually not a big deal.
"Guys Are you ready to face hell?" Looking at the disciples, the corners of Li Yi's mouth curled up slightly.
"Eh" Hearing Li Yi's words, the Cagliari players immediately lost their original smile.
Under the leadership of Cardinic, Cagliari's players began to report to the team doctor, and then went to the hospital for a detailed medical examination.
The physical examination is a boring process, but as a head coach, Li Yi no longer needs to do many things by himself, but this is not because Li Yi is lazy. It doesn't matter whether he, the head coach, is there during the physical examination. Wait for the physical examination data to come out and see the player's condition.
Besides, the head coach has the work of the head coach, such as considering the new season's lineup and new season's tactics. With Tony's departure, Cagliari will definitely have to change in the new season.
For example, in crossing, Tony's header ability is something that Cagliari's current striker does not have, so next season will definitely reduce high passes.
To reduce the high-altitude pass, the ground cooperation must be increased. Fortunately, there is no need to worry about this aspect. Cagliari's midfielder, except for Conte and Carus, have excellent skills.
Di Natale, the future old demon, has excellent skills at his feet, not even much better than Zola. Di Natale can do what Zola can do, and even Di Natale can do what Zola can't.
However, in order to stimulate Di Natale's strength, Li Yi still needs to make more preparations, especially the tacit understanding between the two partners. Cagliari's striker next season will be composed of Milito and Di Natale.
