Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 56 The Maxi Carey Problem

The latest website: "...In the third round of La Liga that ended last night, the Madrid Pirates beat Sebastia 2:1 in an away game, winning three consecutive league victories. Hu scored twice in this game. Scored all two goals of the Pirates, and is the main contributor to the team's ability to score all three points in the away game... This striker, who cost the club 120 million euros, is in full condition and is doing a great job! Even the most picky Pirates fans will no longer question whether it is worthwhile for the club to spend so much money for Hu... Pirates fans have already regarded Hu as a future legend of the club..."

"Six goals in three games, Hu is making history in La Liga. He is not only the first player in the history of the Madrid Pirates to score six goals in the first three games, but also the first three games in the history of La Liga for a new team. The leader of six goals... Although Hu has just started in La Liga, he has already become the focus of everyone's attention. From Madrid to Seville, from Barcelona to Valencia, the media and fans are discussing him …If you want me to say, the Sevilla Voyagers really deserved their loss in the Europa League final, who can stop such a killer?"

"It is said that there is a Chinese proverb called 'A new official takes office with three fires'. Hu vividly explained this proverb to us with his six goals in three games. Not only in Madrid Pirates, but also in Leeds City, he also He scored five goals in the first three games-he scored eleven goals in the Premier League that season, and these first three games accounted for almost half of the goals... It is reported that "The Godfather of Champions" production company Sports Ranger is considering adjusting Hu's adaptability to the full value of 20..."

"Although Sebastia defended Hu very tightly in the game, Hu found two chances. Just these two chances allowed him to score two goals. He only had four in this game. Three shots on goal, three of them on target, two goals, amazing efficiency... And judging by these three games, we were surprised to find that he seemed to have played with this team all season. If I don't remind you, just looking at the game, we might think he moved to the team last season... Hu's second goal in the game, Tonini's pass and Hu's forward drive The running position was just right, and the two cooperated seamlessly. If Tonini made a pass a little earlier, or Hu ran a little earlier, the ball would definitely be offside..."

"When Hu rejected the King of Madrid, some King fans said that Hu would regret not choosing the King. So now I don't know whether Hu should regret it or the King should regret it? Meli has also scored three league rounds so far. Four goals, if there were no Hu these six goals, Meli should have topped the scorer list, but now Hu has taken all the limelight... I think Kings fans will have this fantasy in their hearts: If Hu can join King, if you partner with Meli, then the King should be invincible in La Liga, right? Unfortunately, or fortunately, such a thing did not happen. La Liga competes with each other is the best thing to see, rather than a team monopolizing the championship... … Blue and white Munich have already won six consecutive Bundesliga titles, what's the point of such a league?"

"To be honest, after watching Hu's performance in these three games, I suddenly understood Tony Clark."

First assistant coach Jesús Valentine said so about head coach Ettore Parotti.

"I understand him too." Parotti said with a smile.

"We used to feel that we saw Hu's limitations in Leeds City. If Hu was only allowed to be a point-grabbing shooter, Hu's progress was limited and there was not much room for improvement. I wondered how Clark could see such a simple thing. Not coming out? I now think Clark may not have missed it, but for his Leeds City, letting Hu concentrate on grabbing points is the best choice..." Valentine continued. "After all when a player has such terrible scoring ability, why is there any need to change?"

"Yeah, in these three games, I was almost shaken. For a few moments, I seriously considered whether to give up our new requirements for Hu and let him play in the way he is familiar with. ..." Parotti continued.

In the first round of the league, due to the short training time before the game, when Parotti replaced Hu Lai, he told him to play in the way he was familiar with.

In fact, it is to let Hu Lai be a pure striker like he did in Leeds City.

Because of Hu Lai's super ability to seize opportunities and efficiency in front of the goal, this is the most trouble-free way, and it does not require a high degree of tacit understanding.

But Parotti was a temporary measure of helplessness at the time, which did not mean that he would let Hou Lai follow the old path of Leeds City.

What he considered was to let Hu Lai gain confidence with goals, consolidate his position in the team, buy time, and then adjust slowly.

Unexpectedly, Hu Lai was in good form in these three games.

Playing in the way he is used to, scoring goals one after another, there is no stopping. The Madrid Pirates also won three consecutive victories at the beginning of the league.

On the contrary, Parotti was stunned, considering whether to let Hu Lai kick him down like this.

Fortunately, he was determined...not to give up his original plan.

He believes that if Hu Lai wants to have a higher development, and his pirates want to achieve better results and hit the league championship and the Champions League championship, then Hu Lai must stick to the route he set for him.

To be more integrated into your own transmission and control system.

It is necessary to improve the passing ability and appear in more places in the frontcourt instead of staying in the penalty area most of the time like before.

"But this is a good thing after all. With the performance of six goals in these three games, it has bought enough time for us and Hu. Even if there are ups and downs in his performance in the future, it will not form any bad public opinion. The environment has changed..." Parotti said again. "Everyone will be more tolerant and patient with him. We can also execute the plan more calmly."

"Judging from the training during this period, he has improved rapidly. But there is a problem, Ettore." Valentine frowned, "Maxi did not have the wonderful chemical reaction with Hu as you imagined. After he hit halftime in the first round, he sank again."

Parotti sighed, "Perhaps in the first round, I shouldn't have replaced him during the intermission..."

"Since you want Hu to focus on grabbing points at the time, you can only replace him. Your decision is fine. After all, he and Hu couldn't cooperate at the time. After he got the ball, he would choose to play by himself instead of passing the ball. But Di Kunzo is more suitable to cooperate with Hu, who is a point-grabbing type." Valentine shook his head.

After scoring a goal in the first round of the league, everyone thought that Maxi Carey had finally overcome the physical and psychological torture caused by the damn injury.

As a result, Carey and Hu Lai started as partners in the second round of the league, but their performance was not satisfactory. The two didn't cooperate, and Carey seemed eager to prove that he was no worse than Hu Lai, who scored a hat-trick, by scoring a goal himself.

In the game against Valero, there were several times when it was obvious that Hu Lai had already run into the space, but Kyrie just didn't pass the ball and insisted on choosing to do it himself.

There was even one time when he continued to smash the ball in the ribs, Hu Lai stood in the middle of the road and watched the show. He watched Kyrie kick back and forth several times, but failed to pass the ball.

So not long after the start of the second half, Parotti replaced Carey with Di Kunzo.

Not long after Di Kunzo came on the field, Hu Lai scored a goal, and it was Di Kunzo who assisted him. It can be said that the effect of this substitution was immediate.

In the third round of the league game against Sebastia, Carey simply did not make the starting list.

It wasn't until the 72nd minute of the game that he was replaced, and it was Hu Lai who scored twice.

Because Hu Lai flew to London to participate in the UEFA awards ceremony in the middle of the week, the training was incoherent. Considering that he will fly back to distant China to participate in the national team competition, Parotti replaced him early in order to prevent him from getting too tired and getting injured in the national team competition.

Although Carey, who replaced Hu Lai, did not have the problem of not being able to cooperate with Hu Lai, his performance still did not improve.

Even a fool can see that he is impatient, that he is not patient and meticulous in handling the ball, and that he fails to grasp the opportunity when he encounters it.

"Maybe I should have a good talk with him..." Parotti pondered.

"It's not easy to convince him."

"It's not easy to do. I believe he can coexist with Hu." Parotti said. "Thinking about it now, the goal in the first round gave him confidence, but it may not be a good thing..."

Valentine also agreed with Parotti's view.

The first goal of the Madrid Pirates this season was scored by Maxi Carey, which made him full of confidence, thinking that he had returned to his best condition and could completely suppress the opponent in the competition with Hu Lai.

Turns out his performance on that ball may have been a blip.

"Wait for him to come back from the national team game, then I will have a good chat with him, I hope he can calm down in this conversation..."

Parotti sighed lightly.

For Maxi Carey, he was kind of broken.

If you want to lead the Madrid Pirates beyond the achievements of the Hantchek period, Maxi Carey is as important as Hou Lai.

Parotti believes that Carey's skills and experience can provide important support for the team.

The Madrid Pirates now lack a player who can organize an offense. Two of the four midfielders are basically engineers-Ramirez is a typical defensive midfielder, and Joaquin Bella is relatively More comprehensive, but also comprehensively mediocre, offensive advancement can only be sidelined.

In Parotti's vision, Carey can either attack the city at the forward position, or retreat, becoming a free frontcourt to help the team sort out the offense in the frontcourt. His skills combined with Hu Lai's scoring ability can make the Madrid Pirates' offensive firepower to a higher level.

Of course, the premise is that Kyrie has to change his previous playing habits, and it is not an easy task to persuade him to do so.

Especially when he feels good about himself...
