My name is Colani

Chapter 356 84. Season Opening

"This draw is not bad for us! I don't think Valencia and Bremen are much stronger than us. My opinion is that there are only 6 games in the group stage. Every game and every opponent is very important to us. As long as we play well in every game, I think we still have hope to qualify!" Hugo said to the Italian media after the draw.

"This group is a very difficult group, but we are not afraid of any opponent!" Giorgio said in an interview.

Hugo's words revealed his inner desire. In fact, he still hopes that the team can qualify from the group. A reporter asked him, "You are eager for your team to qualify, right? !

"Of course, since we have entered the group stage, we are not holding the mentality of playing 6 games and going through the motions! But this is not inconsistent with my original goal of setting no goal. It is a good thing to have expectations, but whether it can be achieved is another matter, right?!" Hugo said with a smile.

Reporters asked him to comment on the group situation of several other Italian teams, but Hugo said, "I don't care about the situation of other teams!"

After the draw, the Italian Football Association investigation team and the Naples court also made the final ruling. Well, the verdict on the gambling case was very light. At present, some Serie A teams have not been implicated at all. The unlucky ones are the low-level teams and players.

Because Hugo himself was also involved in a match-fixing case, he was not in a position to express his opinion. If there was no match-fixing case, he would definitely criticize the Football Association investigation team fiercely. This is not a question of right or wrong, but a question of setting a benchmark. He must make himself unique, which is also a means of self-protection.

After the penalty was announced, the Football Association began to arrange the opening of the new season, and the time was set to open on September 11.

The schedule was soon arranged. The current Football Association President is still Carraro, but it is rare that Hugo's team did not suffer special treatment. It should be said that the schedule is still quite acceptable for Trapani.

The new season is about to start, and major media have also begun to preview the season. The top four teams last season are naturally the focus of everyone's comments. Trapani has some new players this summer, and the quality is very good, at least from the resume.

Jankulovski, Ledesma and Di Loreto all have rich experience in Serie A. With Pizarro who transferred in the winter break last season, Trapani's actions in the transfer market are still very consistent with everyone's positioning of them.

It is difficult for them to introduce stars and superstars, but Trapani is not inferior in introducing powerful players.

"I have heard that Trapani wants many targets, such as Robben, Giuly, and even Totti and Ibrahimovic, but they failed to complete these transfers. The main reason is that they are not attractive enough! However, after missing these transfers, they also got satisfactory supplements. I think their transfer operations can be scored 7.5 points!" Football commentator Paolo Rossi said on a TV show.

"Paul, it seems that you have a high opinion of Trapani's transfer, but why is it only 7.5 points!" the host asked with a smile.

"Because they couldn't find a suitable replacement for Miku! Miku has proved himself through last season. It is completely nonsense to say that he can't adapt to Serie A, but let's not forget that he is not young anymore. It is hard to say how long he can maintain the state of last season. Trapani should be prepared earlier!" Rossi pointed out.

Selli must want to complain. If the transfer is as simple as spending money, it will be easy. The key is that it is not easy to find such a player now. He must choose a player suitable for Trapani in terms of technical style. He doesn't trust the young players who are now famous in the market. Who would be willing to sell mature and experienced players? !

So Zeman's request this summer is very difficult to achieve, but Hugo doesn't feel annoyed. Miku looks in good physical condition. He was injured some time ago and has recovered quickly now. He will definitely play in the first round.

There are also various media outlets that give Trapani transfer ratings, with different opinions. Most of the ratings are quite impressive, and they believe that Trapani's current situation can continue to compete for the top four rankings, even if they fight on three fronts in the new season.

Domenico, a reporter from the "New Sports" website, wrote a special analysis of Trapani's new season outlook, which was very brilliant. She analyzed Trapani's advantages and disadvantages in detail.

Among them, she talked about Trapani's advantages: First, a stable team. The stable team she mentioned here refers to the overall team of the club. Unknowingly, Trapani has been in Hugo's hands for 6 years. During these six years, Trapani's leadership team has always been stable, without internal intrigue, and there is no messing around in the team because of money. Domenico praised Trapani's management team as a very good management team.

Secondly, the team's age structure is very reasonable. Many players have worked in Trapani for many years. The team's leaders Toni and Klose are both in their prime, while veterans Miku and Guardiola can do a good job of stabilizing the morale of the team on the field. In fact, the younger players have played for Trapani for quite a while. Mascherano, Evra and Maggio have all played here for more than three years. Even though they are very young, the tacit understanding between the team members is very good.

Third, Trapani has its own football philosophy. The founder of this philosophy is Zeman, who injected the attack factor into Trapani's tactics. Hugo pursued a relative balance between offense and defense last season, but everyone should also see that Trapani is the team with the most goals besides Milan, Juventus and Roma.

Of course, after talking about the good, there are also disadvantages. Domenico pointed out that Trapani's challenges in the new season come from injuries, Miku's replacement, and a weak defense line.

Domenico even predicted that Zeman's return may make Trapani's defense line problem more serious. It is not without reason that Trapattoni looks down on Trapani's players.

In the Trapani headquarters office, Hugo looked at the beautiful reporter's comment with interest and couldn't help but applaud. Many of the views of this beautiful woman hit his mind, and he just had such thoughts after reading it.

In fact, after resigning from the job of head coach, Hugo really didn't think so much about the team's technical and tactical skills. He believed that Zeman could do it. Besides, Hugo also hoped to see his team play beautiful football after class. According to Zeman, winning is good, and losing the ball doesn't matter. Hugo actually agrees with this.

However, Domenico's column analysis still made Hugo sincerely admire him. He called Lu Fan from the next office to appreciate the article with him.

"Brother Fan, do you think it is necessary for me to recommend this article to that old man Zeman?!" Hugo asked with a smile.

"This?! ..." Lu Fan didn't know what to say. As a personal security consultant, he knew the agreement reached between Hugo and Zeman very well. The verbal agreement said that Hugo would not interfere with Zeman's technical and tactical choices.

What is the point of recommending such an article now? ! Implicitly express your meaning? ! I'm afraid Zeman will understand it this way!

"Forget it! Trust people when you employ them, and don't employ people when you doubt them. My old problem has come back!" Hugo waved his hand self-deprecatingly.

"Haha, this is nothing! Think about Berlusconi still giving orders to Ancelotti! How can he know more than you?!" Lu Fan laughed.

"He is the Prime Minister, anyone can control him!" Hugo responded with a smile, and the matter was dropped.

After the national team match day, the league officially opened, and Trapani's first round match was against Parma.

Parma's situation is very bad. They have been entrusted by the government. The collapse of Parmalat has caused them to have to keep buying blood for a living. Of course, there will be signings, but the strength is declining quickly!
