Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 81 The Benefits of Exercise

When Chen Yingxiong was on vacation, Ed Wocart was busy building the team. He took over halfway through last season, so the players he can choose from are limited, and the things he can change are also very limited. In this way, even in the middle of the team ranking, he still led the team to fourth in the league, and he cannot but say that his ability is still very powerful.

Of course, in the middle, Chen Yingxiong's ten goals played a vital role. But Ed Wo Carter, who dared to take a huge risk to give Chen Yingxiong a first-team starter opportunity, is really amazing.

He doesn't need to intervene midway this season, he can build a team that meets his requirements from the beginning.

First, he bought out the full-back Fernando Rickson, who was loaned from Scotland last season, for 200,000 euros.

Increased the team's defense strength. Then he bought the 21-year-old young Belgian full-back Nicolas Lombaerts from Ghent (aa·gent) in Belgium. This transfer transaction cost the team four hundred and twenty. Million euros.

Zenit St. Petersburg in the transfer is frantically spreading money to buy people, expanding their strength. Some signings are not even to strengthen the main lineup, but to strengthen the bench lineup.

Ed Wocart knows very well that the team will not only play in the domestic league in the 2007 season, but also play in the UEFA Cup. If it is a two-lane battle, the two-lane may collapse. So the thickness of the bench is very important. It's not feasible to rely on a single lineup to beat the world.

The team also received free Russian midfielder Konstantin Ziryanov (konstantin·zyryanov) from the Moscow Torpedo. His coming is mainly to strengthen the bench strength.

Then Ed Wo Carter began to take shots in order to enhance the main lineup.

He first introduced Argentine's offensive midfielder Alejandro Dominguez from the Kazan Ruby team for 7 million euros. This transfer fee set a record for the transfer fee in Russia.

Domingos became famous very early, he became famous at the 2001 World Youth Championship. But also in that World Youth Championship, he was tackled in the game against France, once even bid farewell to professional football.

In the end he survived and joined the Russian team Kazan Ruby from the River Plate in 2004, where he is the absolute core of the Kazan Ruby. He played 76 times in three seasons and scored 25 goals. Especially last season, he played 30 times and scored 17 goals.

According to Edvard Carter's vision, as long as Chen Yingxiong can maintain the momentum of the last stage of last season, it will be no problem to become the main center.

But a center like him is very dependent on the midfielder to support him, so there must be someone who can deliver cannonballs to him. There is now an Arshavin, but it is far from enough. After all, Radimov is old, and his condition is declining very quickly, and he needs fresh blood. Domingos is a good choice. In fact, before the start of last season, the Kazan Ruby wanted to sell the player. The idea of ​​the Kazan Ruby is really strange-such an absolute main core player, they even want to sell.

Had it not received a suitable offer, Domingos would have left Kazan Ruby long ago.

After a procrastination for a season, Kazan Ruby finally received a suitable offer to sell Domingos to a competitor at the value of a record transfer fee for the Russian domestic league.

With Domingos, Zenit's frontcourt attack will be even stronger. In Ed Wocart's mind, he, Arshavin and Chen Yingxiong will form an all-encompassing offensive triangle to conquer the team.

Strengthen the strength of offense, it is natural to strengthen the strength of defense.

Ed Volkart focused on the captain of the Ukrainian Shakhtar Donetsk team, defensive midfielder Anatoliy Tymoshchuk (anatoliy·tymoshchuk).

The Ukrainian defensive midfielder has been famous for a long time. As the captain of the Shakhtar Donetsk team, he led the team to three Ukrainian league championships, three Ukrainian Cup championships, and one Ukrainian Super Cup championship. Last summer because of his outstanding performance in the World Cup in Germany, he got the attention of many giants. Rumors have it that Juventus, Feyenoord, Celtics and Roma want him.

But in the end he stayed with the miners.

Edvarkart believes that Tymoshchuk is a very good midfielder. At the World Cup in Germany last summer, he was considered a key figure for Ukraine to finally break into the quarterfinals. Shepchenko is the captain of the team and he is the deputy captain.

The arrival of such an outstanding midfielder can definitely greatly enhance the team's ability in midfield defense.

Ed Wo Carter just took office last season and brought three players from Korea in one go. He wanted to establish his own direct line, but he found that these three Koreans were not very competitive. Last season was still in progress, Xuan Yongmin was the first to fall behind. Due to his inability to adapt to the Russian climate and his lack of strength, he was sleepwalking on the court. He was beaten into the reserve team after a few games.

Then Ed Wocart was not very satisfied with Li Hao's performance last season. He did not do well in the defense of the midfield and contributed less offensively. It seems to be out of sync with the whole team.

It's just that there has been no better candidate to replace him before, and now Edvarkart intends to introduce Tymoshchuk, so naturally there is no place for Li Hao.

In the end, Zenit St. Petersburg spent more than 15 million euros to buy their captain Timoshchuk from Shakhtar Donetsk.

The arrival of Tymoshchuk can greatly strengthen the team's defensive ability in the midfield.

On the front line, there is nothing to sign up for.

Sevilla once wanted to buy Krzakov from Zenit, but Advocate refused. Panov has already been beaten to the reserve team by him, and the manpower on the front line is relatively tight. It is impossible for him to let Krzakov go.

With such a reserve, he felt that it was just right.

There are only three serious forwards, Krzakov, Tek and Chen Yingxiong.

Tektronix is ​​the most tragic among them. Originally, he transferred from Trabzonspor, Turkey with the identity of 10 million euros last season, and quickly became the main force with repeated gains. How can I think of an accidental injury that caused a guy named Chen Yingxiong to be born.

The madman scored five goals in three games, including a hat-trick, which was so radiant for a while that he was almost forgotten by others.

After finally coming back, I only played a league game, because I was too impatient, and was injured in training...

Now, when he saw in front of the TV that Chen Yingxiong made a beautiful long-range shot against CSKA Moscow, he knew that his main position this season was gone...

This hero Chen was like falling from the sky, and thus took away his main position.

After the start of the new season, Tektronix was struggling to take back the main position from Chen Yingxiong.

After analyzing it, Chen Yingxiong also has excellent headers, excellent physical fitness, and the ability to take a long shot, but the shooting rate is average, and the others have no advantages. His technique is very rough and his passing is very average. A center nailed in the penalty area, such a person is the easiest to be watched by the opponent's defender...

But things are not as smooth as he thought...

"Huh? Hero, do I think you are fat?"

"That's not fat! It's strong! Strong strong!"

This conversation happened many times in the training before the new season. Almost every teammate who saw Chen Yingxiong would ask this sentence, and then Chen Yingxiong would repeat it with the same answer.

Ed Wocart is very satisfied with Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness. Throughout the holiday, he was the only player who gained weight but decreased fat content.

The training before the beginning of the season was all physical recovery training. Chen Yingxiong was very easy to complete. The fool could see that he did not relax and exercise during the holidays.

Ed Wocart is satisfied with this.

Don't look at Chen Yingxiong who likes to go to nightclubs and loves to play. But at the critical moment, he can still hold it, knowing what he should do.

He did not ask Chen Yingxiong for physical training during the holidays, but he did so, indicating that his professionalism is still acceptable.

Chen Yingxiong also felt the benefits of insisting on physical training during the holidays-he felt very relaxed from the beginning of the pre-season training, and he was able to deal with it with ease.

He has stored enough energy for the start of the new season.

Next, when training with the ball, Chen Yingxiong showed everyone the power of his two talent points this holiday.

After the "Heavy Artillery" talent point was full, Chen Yingxiong often used his long shots during the team training match. He wanted to see what it looked like after the talent point was full...

At the very least, the performance is really awesome in training.

If there is no interference, let him shoot directly with his foot, he can already score six goals! This is an amazing scoring rate.

Of course, in the actual game, if confrontation and other complicated situations are encountered, the scoring rate is certainly not so high, but even so, it is already very impressive.

In addition, Chen Yingxiong's shooting power is already great. Once his long shot is within the range of the goal frame, it will be a severe test for the goalkeeper.

What is the concept of a center with such an awesome long shot?

Just like O'Neal frequently pulls out of the three-point line to shoot three-pointers, and the shooting percentage is still very high!

Of course, because of his position, it is of course impossible for Chen Yingxiong to go outside the penalty area to take such long shots. Most of the time, he has to face the opponent's goal, so he can't take long shots.

But having such a scoring method always benefits the team and him a lot.

think about it. At that time, when the penalty area was full of the opponent's intensive defense, Chen Yingxiong suddenly retreated, received a pass from his teammate, and then kicked a long shot! The football flew straight into the opponent's goal like a cannonball, and the opponent's goalkeeper watched the football into the goal dumbfounded, without making any saves...

What a refreshing thing this is!

For Chen Yingxiong, this gives him one more weapon and one more insurance in the team's internal frontline competition.

A center who can not only rush to the front to smash the opponent's goal with his head, but also use long-range shots to throw cold arrows, can definitely enrich the team's offensive tactics and routines. For the head coach, this means that he There is also one more weapon...

Tek now feels that this season's main position, he is not competitive...
