Prominence in Football Community

When Pellet saw the group of reporters below, he felt more and more that his agent Corvino was right-coming to Sampdoria, he received attention that he didn't even have in Parma. Listen to what the head coach Iachini said when facing the reporter just now: "Pellet is what I asked the club to rent. We need Pellet and believe that he can play an important role in the team."

Hearing this made Pellet feel comfortable. He had never enjoyed this kind of attention-grabbing treatment in Parma!

So when faced with the reporter's question about "the team now has ten forwards plus you, the competition will be very fierce, what do you think about this", Pellet seemed confident.

He remembered that the reporter introduced himself during the questioning as a team reporter for the most influential newspaper in Genoa, "Nineteenth Century".

Since it is the most influential newspaper, he obviously knows how to answer it.

So he puffed out his chest, raised his chin slightly, and tried to make his voice sound calm with a kind of confidence that came here from the first division: "Oh, I know that Sampdoria's goal is to return to Serie A. Class A, I guess that's what I'm here for."

Simply fantastic, Graziano!

After Pellet finished speaking, he cheered for himself in his heart.

Perfect performance, whether it is the content of the answer or the tone and expression when speaking, it is perfect!

After saying this, Pellet looked at the reporters in the audience with a smile on his face. Some of them were writing hard in their small notebooks. Did they want to record all their performance just now?

Pellet wishes he could see them commenting on himself in the Genoa media: "... Graziano Pellet showed his confidence and charisma, the star who came to Sampdoria from the first division. Calm and calm, his arrival has brought dawn to Sampdoria's promotion..."

Then Pellet and coach Iachini got up and pulled the Sampdoria jersey with his name and number printed on it together for reporters to take pictures.

Pellet maintained a bright smile, his white teeth shining brightly against the flashing lights.

As soon as Wang Yixing came out of the press conference, he couldn't wait to complain to Lu Bing: "I really don't understand, obviously Gao Zheng is already there, why does Sampdoria need to add a center forward...even if Piovacari wants Leaving the team, the existing striker configuration is completely sufficient-Pozzi, Bertani and Gao Zheng, the three of them are enough, not to mention the experienced veteran Marcarone, and the return of the loan. The team's young strikers Zaza, Testardi... Just now Frécello said that the first team now has ten strikers,

That is no exaggeration at all! "

In fact, in addition to the names mentioned by Wang Yixing, Sampdoria also has Roberto Soriano, Franco Simoli, Bruno Fornaroli and Salvador Rey on the front line. The four of Futy added up to exactly ten people.

And just in the position of center forward, Sampdoria now has six players including Pozzi, Macarone, Bertani, Gao Zheng, Fornaroli, and Forti, not counting the newly loaned Perry. Lai, you must know that after Iachini took office, Sampdoria played a double forward lineup, and the center alone is enough for him to form three sets of combinations.

Wang Yixing really couldn't figure out why it was necessary to rent Pellet. And Pellet's data in Parma is not very good...

Lu Bing shrugged: "Who knows, maybe because of the loss of two main strikers during the winter break last season, the team failed to score in five consecutive league rounds, which led to the relegation of the team, so Sampdoria now has Fear of lack of firepower?"

Wang Yixing heard the teasing in Lu Bing's tone, he said angrily: "You are still in the mood to joke!"

"Why not? Are you worried that Gao Zheng will not be able to compete with those people?"

"I...I'm not...I'm worried that the head coach's mind will change. Didn't you hear what Iachini said at the reception? Pellet is on loan at his request. He believes that Pellet will play The role...for the emperor and the courtiers, if Yachini wants to re-cultivate his own direct line, it is completely reasonable!"

Lu Bing glanced at Wang Yixing, a pessimist and conspiracy theorist: "Old Wang, no matter what, the head coach always hopes that his team can win, right? In this case, if Gao Zheng can keep scoring goals, To help the team win, why did Iachini do such a stupid thing as Atezori? Besides, Sampdoria has a double striker, why can't it be considered that the arrival of Pellet will not threaten Gao Zheng, but Po What about Qi and Bertoni?"

Wang Yixing was stunned by Lu Bing's rhetorical question.

Lu Bing patted Wang Yixing on the shoulder: "Let's have more confidence and optimism in Gao Zheng, Lao Wang."

"I don't quite understand what you said at the press conference, Giuseppe. If you just talk about some pleasing scenes, you don't have to go to that point at all." Club manager Sagramola concluded After the press conference, he asked out the doubts in his heart. "Do we really need Pellet? He didn't perform very well in Parma, scoring very few goals as a center forward..."

Giuseppe Iachini smiled: "Do you think I am trying to please the players, Mr. Manager?"

"Uh... isn't it? Didn't you see how bright Pellet's smile was after hearing you say that?"

"Of course, Pellet's scoring statistics are not impressive. But I didn't ask the club to loan him to let him score goals. In terms of goals, we are already high. Pozzi and Bertani can also score goals. . We don't need Pellet to score."

"Then why rent him?"

Instead of answering the question, Iachini asked Sagramola a question that seemed completely unrelated: "Mr. Manager, what do you think of Gao?"

"High? He is a talented player that the club attaches great importance to and is our future star."

"No, I'm not talking about the club's position on him." Yachini shook his head. "I mean do you think Gao has any strengths and weaknesses as a player?"

Sagramola frowned and thought about it carefully, and then said: "There is no doubt that his technique is very good. It is the first time I have seen someone as tall as him have such delicate and exquisite footwork skills. The consciousness is also very good... As for the shortcomings, the lack of physical fitness and strength is the biggest shortcoming right now?"

"Mr. Manager, you have observed very carefully. It is indeed the case. Whether it is physical fitness or strength improvement, it is a long-term process. We cannot expect him to become a strong runner overnight. But the high team does It is very important. At least if we want to upgrade, Gao is an indispensable and important force. Now limited by physical fitness, Gao can only play as a substitute. Although he has performed well every time he has come off the bench so far, we You can't always expect him to turn the tide every time he comes off the bench, can you?"

Hearing what Yakini said, Sagramola nodded in agreement.

"Since we are inseparable from Gao's ability now, and we have a way to turn Gao into a center who can play 90 minutes and fight hand-to-hand with opposing defenders, then we have to find ways from other aspects. For example...we can Find a strong striker, let him torture the opponent's defender to his heart's content, and when the opponent's defender is exhausted, send Gao to deliver a fatal blow."

"So Pellet is the one to torture defenders?" Sagramola asked.

Yakini nodded: "I hope so."

"But to be honest, Giuseppe, your idea is very good in terms of tactics, but have you considered whether the player himself is willing to be a green leaf for a young man? Especially this young man is still a substitute..." Sagramola was not persuaded by Yachini, but raised his own concerns. "I don't know if you noticed Pellet's performance at the press conference? I saw some arrogance and superiority on his face. Maybe there is a gap between what he thinks in his heart and what you want him to do."

Yakini froze for a moment, then frowned and said, "If he can't get his position right, then he won't even have a chance to play."

Sagramola spread his hands: "Then the club rented him for nothing?"

"Anyway, we didn't ask us to bear his salary. Did the club pay a rental fee to rent him?"

"Uh, that's not true, he came on free loan, and Parma seems to be eager to get rid of him..."

"That's it? Anyway, for Pellet, if he can understand his true role, maybe his future can be changed, otherwise I am not interested in saving the career of an egomaniac." Archie Ni shrugged.
