After all the players who were supposed to come had arrived and all the players who were supposed to leave had left, Chang Sheng led all the players who had newly joined the team to hold a "mass wedding"-style press conference.
In addition to Cavani, Kolarov and Azpilicueta, all the new players made their appearance.
Both Cavani and Kolarov want to continue playing for their original clubs. Cavani is in Naples, Kolarov is in Belgrade ofk, and Azpilicueta is too young. Lazio doesn’t have him at all.
position, so Changsheng decided to loan him to Getafe.
Because of Chang Sheng's relationship with Getafe, there is nothing surprising about this deal.
Of course, during the loan process, Chang Shengli used his personal relationship to make a request to Getafe's head coach Benitez, which was to let Azpilicueta play as a right back. By the way, Chang Shengli robbed Benitez.
Following Tes' path, after becoming a famous coach, Benitez never showed up. He didn't show up in Tenerife, and he didn't show up when he changed to other teams.
Until he followed in the winning footsteps and went to Getafe, which was still in the second division.
He has achieved success here. He led Getafe to successfully upgrade last season, showing his coaching talent.
However, his reputation is no longer comparable to Chang Sheng.
I think back when the two met in the second division league, Benitez was considered a "famous coach" in Chang Sheng's mind. He might not necessarily have the upper hand in a fight with him.
But after years of tempering, the winning streak has completely overwhelmed Benitez.
As a latecomer to Chang Sheng, Benitez doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. In fact, he has publicly stated more than once that he appreciates and admires Chang Sheng...
This made Chang Sheng feel ashamed after hearing this...
He stole Benitez's path, but he didn't expect Benitez to take the path of winning.
These two people are really entangled...
For such a small request, Benitez, who has always admired and liked winning, naturally would not refuse.
By the way, driven by their consistent wins, Lazio and Getafe also formed a satellite club relationship, and Getafe became Lazio's satellite club.
In the future, players in the Lazio team who have potential but cannot get a chance in the first team can be rented or sold to Getafe at a cheap price.
Getafe will do their best to develop their players for Lazio, such as Azpilicueta.
This prevents some teams from thinking that the loaned players belong to others, so they don't use them properly and throw them on the bench. Uncles don't feel sorry for them and grandma doesn't like them.
In that case, it would be better to play youth team games in your own youth team.
The cooperation between Getafe and Changsheng is based on the good relationship between the two parties.
Getafe has a new owner. Although the new owner is a member of Real Madrid, he is a smart man. He is very clear about the status of Chang Sheng in the hearts of Getafe fans. If he wants to make his position more stable,
, to make himself more popular among Getafe fans, he will naturally want to have a good relationship with Chang Sheng.
That's why these things happened.

Regarding Chang Sheng's "mass wedding"-style press conference for new players, reporters have gradually become accustomed to it. There is nothing they can do if they are not used to it. Chang Sheng doesn't care about your feelings...
Even the people who laughed at Chang Sheng's purchase were unknowns, and the voices of Lazio's poor and shabby people were much lessened.
Last season, some media ridiculed Lazio and Changsheng.
As a result, Lazio relied on a group of "nobodies", "raw melon eggs" and "new recruits" to get second place in the league. Now it seems that they have great hope of becoming the league champion and a UEFA Cup champion.
Such results cannot be achieved by big teams that spend huge sums of money to buy star players, but Lazio, which has always won, has achieved it.
So who has the right to laugh at him?
The new players lined up and stood on the podium, plus the head coach Chang Sheng and club president Lotito, there were ten people in total. The scene looked quite spectacular.
As usual, photographers and reporters have to get together to take pictures. But when the reporters rushed to a distance of three meters from these players to take pictures, someone discovered a problem...
Some photographers who were inexperienced and didn't know enough about Chang Sheng planned to take a group photo of these people. When the results of Chang Sheng's recruitment were shown in a panoramic view, they realized that their lens frame could not fit so many people...
The distance is too close and the lens frame is limited.
But if you retreat to the wall to take pictures, people can fit in, but if you do, they will look smaller, and your face will not be clearly visible...
At this time, the experienced photojournalist took out a wide-angle lens and calmly took a somewhat distorted group photo.
At this time last year, they suffered this kind of loss. You can't trip over the same stone twice.
In addition to taking a group photo of everyone, we also need to take a close-up of each new player individually.
Then the flashes connected together and the shutter sounds came and went.
The reporters looked at the young people holding their respective Lazio jerseys with Chang Sheng on the stage and smiling, and felt deep in their hearts.
Maybe in another season, many of these people will become regulars in the media, become stars, and become famous. In a few years, they will become the main force in world football...
This is the magic of victory.

At the press conference, Chang Sheng also announced that Lazio’s transfer signings for this season have come to an end.
Reporters are also very aware of this.
When he said this, many reporters simply said in their hearts: "Sure enough!"
I knew it would be like this!
Now everyone has figured out the winning style.
He usually starts the transfer work just at the end of the season, and then by the time other teams start the transfer work, his transfer has basically been completed.
He doesn't seem to need to observe, think, or wait for the right price. He acts resolutely and buys whoever he likes, and he does so very quickly and will not go back and forth with the other club. Like the kind that waits until the summer transfer window closes.
A transfer deal that was only confirmed an hour ago is almost impossible to happen to a winning team.
It’s like he knows who he should buy every summer and who he shouldn’t waste time on.
Therefore, his transfer efficiency is always the highest.
Reporters once wanted to find out the reasons behind this. How did Chang Sheng and his team operate in the transfer market?
But when they learned more about it, they discovered that it was actually no different from other teams.
That is, the head coach determines the candidate, and then the entire club starts running at full speed and enters transfer status.
The question is why Chang Sheng can always see things so accurately?
He really hasn't missed a beat in the transfer market.
The reporters were puzzled.
This question will probably become an unsolved mystery in football forever.
Because no one would have thought that Chang Sheng actually traveled through time!

Not to mention reporters are used to it, even Lazio fans are now basically used to this kind of situation where a fan meeting is held and a lot of people come to cheer.
Although they couldn't name most of the people who came every time, let alone were familiar with them.
But that doesn't matter, they just need to know that winning will never let them down.
He was an unknown pawn. After one season, he became a well-known figure in the football world.
Therefore, Lazio fans still gave these players enthusiastic cheers, allowing them to fully feel the enthusiasm of Lazio fans.

Although the media are used to it, it does not mean that no one will criticize Chang Sheng and his Lazio.
In the past, everyone blamed the winning signings: What kind of mess are they? A bunch of nobodies!
It’s no longer so shady now, because it’s too bullshit to be so shady. Chang Sheng has proven his keen eye for people in the transfer market with actual results.
What everyone is talking about now is a "bad habit" and "stinky problem" of Chang Sheng.
That is to sell people after winning the championship, and sell the main force, buy the core, and sell in large quantities.
It's a habit he picked up from his Valencia days.
After three years in Valencia, I bought the main core for two years. In the first year, it was Mendieta and Aimar, and in the second year, it was Ibrahimovic.
When I arrived at Lazio, I didn't expect it to be the same rhythm.
In the first season, his lineup obviously performed very well. You should know that this is only the first year. Everyone is looking forward to the outstanding performance in the second year after this lineup becomes more harmonious.
Unexpectedly, in the second year, Changsheng sold almost all of these people...
Of course, everyone understands why Lazio is doing this, because they are short of money, they have to pay off debts, and they have to maintain the normal operation of the club, which all require money. Where does the money come from? The only way is to sell players.
But usually, the top management of the club forces the sale of players. The head coach tries his best to stop it, and eventually the conflict breaks out... Chang Sheng flips the table and leaves...
But in Lazio, Chang Sheng took the initiative to sell players, colluded with Lotito, and almost broke up his team.
Could it be that Lazio doesn’t want to miss next season?
Doesn't doing this mean to let the team get back together again?
They recognize Chang Sheng's eye for people and his ability to train players.
But leaving the laid foundation unused. Having to demolish the built building and rebuild on the ruins... Only a lunatic can do this, right?
Is Chang Sheng a psychopath?
He's not, but no one can explain it except neurosis.
Of course they don't know, because they are not time travellers. They don't know how chaotic the Italian football world was after Calciopoli, and how easy it was to... get the upper hand!
"Gazzetta dello Sport" criticized Chang Sheng for doing this to destroy the Great Wall: "A team that is always selling and buying players has no future. We may understand that Chang is showing off his transfer.
vision and ability in the market, but this is meaningless. The most important thing for a great team is stability! And this is exactly what Chang’s team does not have! Excellent performance in a season can be attributed to many factors
, such as luck. But if you want to get good results continuously, you need stability. But can Chang bring stability to Lazio?"
Regarding the criticism from Gazzetta dello Sport, Chang Sheng responded: "Stop talking nonsense. Can you wait until the end of the season to read it? I hope that your newspaper's memory will not deteriorate to the point where you can no longer remember what you said."
situation."
"Torino Sport" also questioned whether Chang Sheng's purge and replacement campaign was too ruthless.
Chang Sheng responded: "I helped them win the championship. No matter where they go to play in the future, this will be their eternal honor and capital. In competitive sports, this is the greatest human touch."
Some people disagree with Chang Sheng's words, while others support them.
A big debate began in the media about what "favor" is... Chang Sheng himself never thought that his words would cause so much controversy. He had to say that Italians are really full.
Thus, the preparations for the new season began in a noisy manner... (To be continued.)
