Football: After listening to the advice, I became the strongest free man! - Chapter 378
c378 Egg soufflé joins, Ter Stegen is in explosive form!
7.5 million of which was spent on buying out Sanabria, a young Paraguayan international who played for Sporting Gijon on loan last season from Roma in Serie A. This is a “huge sum” for Betis in recent years. After all, Ruben Castro is nearly 35 years old and it is impossible to expect him to keep scoring for a long time.
In addition, Betis also introduced Ukrainian international Zozulia from Dnipro in the Ukrainian Super League, and recovered their own youth training player Alehlia who was on loan in Numancia in the Spanish Second Division last year and had a hot scoring feeling.
Although Ruben Castro has led the Betis historical scorer list with 121 goals, Lincon in the 1980s scored 78 goals in La Liga, the most goals scored by Betis in the top league. If Castro wants to surpass this record, he needs to score 15 goals in La Liga this season (Castro scored 63 goals for Betis in La Liga).
Real Betis’ three domestic honors have been mentioned at the beginning of this article, namely the league championship in 1934-1935 and the King’s Cup in 1976-1977 and 2004-200.
They also won the King’s Cup runner-up twice in 1931 (lost to Bilbao) and 1997 (lost to Barcelona).
Real Betis has won the Spanish Second Division championship 7 times and completed promotion 12 times. These two data rank second among teams with promotion and relegation experience (Murcia has won the Spanish Second Division championship 9 times, and Malaga has completed a total of 13 promotions with its two other Malaga teams before its merger).
Betis was awarded the royal title by Alfonso XIII himself at the Miramar Palace in San Sebastian in 1914. In 1993, Real Betis was officially restructured into Real Betis Sports Co., Ltd., bidding farewell to the membership system era.
The Spanish name of Real Betis is followed by “Balompié”. This Balompié is quite interesting. BALON means ball in Spanish, and pie means foot. In order to distinguish it from other ball games and names of competitive football clubs that other teams often obtain, Betis added this “pictographic” word representing football to its name.
Betis’ record against Barcelona, the first round opponent of the new season, is 21 wins, 20 draws and 60 losses, scoring 109 goals and conceding 229 goals. The last time it did not lose to Barcelona in the league was in the 2011-2012 season (2-2 at home).
The most recent time it defeated Barcelona in the league was in the 2004-2005 season (2-1 at home).
For Betis, the author still has feelings. When studying in Cordoba, it was very close to Seville. I watched Betis and Seville play many times. The reason why my name was not on the first photo was because I played some cleverness at that time.
However, Betis’ media The receptionist was also very nice. He gave me a TV station ID without any doubt. The following are some memories. You can also search my Weibo “Betis”.
The camp is permanent, but the soldiers are transient. The difficulty of Eibar’s capital operation can be seen from the team lineup. After the magical upgrade two years ago, only midfielder Danny Garcia, Jota and defender Capa are left.
In the first half of the two seasons, they grabbed enough points for relegation, but lacked stamina in the second half.
The new season Eibar’s list is also very fresh, with a total of 14 new players (excluding 3 players who returned from loan), and 17 people left the team (including last season’s thigh Borja Baston, who returned to his parent team Atletico Madrid after the loan period expired). The skeleton of the midfield and backcourt is still there, but the team needs to rebuild the attack line in the new season. The head coach Diliba has rich experience in relegation.
In the past in Barcelona Lardolid has led the team to stay in La Liga for two consecutive seasons, and it is not difficult for him to complete the relegation task for the second time coaching Eibar (he almost led the team to be promoted to the first division during his first coaching).
In the goalkeeper position, Riezoggo’s main position is stable, and Eibar has replaced two substitutes in the summer window.
The skeleton of the midfield and backcourt is still there, but the team needs to rebuild the attack line in the new season. The head coach Diliba has rich experience in relegation.
Irueta and Jimenez left the team, and two young players, Rodriguez and Sabilla, joined on loan from Valencia and Villarreal respectively.
Eibar’s central defender partner is Argentine Mauro Santos and Ivan Ramis, who has just turned 30. The right back is the vice-captain Capa, and the left is guarded by Antonio Luna and Junca.
Eibar bought Pedro Leon and Ruben in the summer window -Peña, two wingers, the former is a product of Murcia youth training, played for Getafe, which was relegated last season, for many years, and has rich experience in the top league.
The latter is the core attacker in the midfield of Leganes, which was promoted this year.
The joining of Ribera, a current Spanish national youth player who played for Real Oviedo before, is a reinforcement and investment for Eibar in the defensive midfielder position.
The striker is the position where Eibar suffered the most losses. Borja Baston, who scored 19 goals and assisted 4 times last season, returned to Atletico Madrid after the loan period expired. Due to his outstanding performance, Eibar was unable to keep this shooter.
In addition, left winger Kiko (transferred to Malaga) and right winger Belho (transferred to Mexico Pumas) left the team. Eibar’s offensive combination last season only had Sergi Enrique and Kiko, who was basically not included in the big list after the winter window purchase.
As of the end of July, Eibar’s summer window move on the striker was to sign former Manchester United player, Portuguese Bebe, from Benfica.
Bebe played for the relegated Rayo Vallecano on loan last season, contributing 3 goals and 8 assists as a starter, but it is unknown whether he can make up for the loss in firepower for Eibar.
Another move by Eibar was to introduce the young center forward Mia who scored 18 goals from the third-level (Senior B Group) Logroño (first group).
From 1988 to 2014, Letorio’s 26-year career in La Coruna brought the team a Segunda Division title (2011-2012 season), a La Liga title (1999-2000), two Copa del Rey titles (1995, 2002), three Spanish Super Cup titles (1995, 2000, 2002), four La Liga runner-ups and five appearances in the Champions League.
After he left office, local businessman Constantino Fernandez took control of the team with 70% of the shares. He has always been operating on a small scale, and La Coruna has rarely made big moves in transfers.
Although they were guaranteed to be promoted in the 2013-2014 season, they made great efforts in the first half of the last two years and barely managed to stay in the league in the second half. Super Laco has entered history forever with the old captain Manuel Pablo who retired this summer.
After Letorio left office two years ago, Laco bid farewell to the glorious era at the beginning of the century.
As the last participant and witness of Super Laco, the 39-year-old captain Manuel Pablo chose to retire this summer.
Since the main goalkeeper Lux was seriously injured in the league in April this year, Laco’s reinforcement of the defense in the summer window was mainly focused on this position. Polish goalkeeper Titon and Levante substitute goalkeeper Ruben Martinez, who was born in La Masia, will guard the goal for Laco in the new season. Goalkeeper Manu Fernandez, who experienced the 0-8 nightmare against Barcelona last season, has left.
In addition, the 37-year-old former Croatian goalkeeper Pletikosa announced his retirement from Laco this summer.
Lux, the main goalkeeper of the Argentine national youth generation, suffered a serious injury last season and it is unknown when he will be able to return in the new season.
Despite the 8-0 defeat of Barcelona last season, Deportivo La Coruna has not made much adjustment to its back line.
Central defenders Sidine and Arribas, and two veteran full-backs Fernando Navarro and Raure will still appear in the regular lineup.
The only addition in the summer window is Albentosa, the main central defender of Malaga last season.
In terms of the performance in the early and middle stages of last season, the defensive quality of Deportivo La Coruna itself is not a big problem, mainly because the whole team was discouraged in the second half of the season.
Former Sevilla meritorious full-back Fernando Navarro played as a central defender last season.
Brazilian Sidine is the most important player in Deportivo La Coruna’s defense, and his position will not be challenged too much in the new season.
Albentosa reunited with young coach Garitano, who had worked with him during his time at Eibar, this season and will firmly establish his position as the starting central defender.
Relatively speaking, the replacement of the midfield is the main focus of Deportivo La Coruna in the summer window.
While retaining the main players of last season, they have introduced a total of five new players, and also rented and bought out Moroccan Fadja.
Among them, Brazilian Guilherme (loan) and Turkish midfielder Emre Colak are both central midfielders, and they will launch a great impact on the original main lineup.
The return of Portuguese Gama, Borja Biya transferred from Oviedo, and Caris Gil on loan from Aston Villa enrich the offensive routines.
The strong Brazilian midfielder Guilherme suffered two injuries last season and basically did not play many games.
Gil returned to La Liga a year later. This young man who can play multiple positions in the midfield was the main general in Elche two years ago.
Although the newcomers have their own characteristics, the main midfielders last season still have many opportunities. Bergandinhos, Mosquera, and Bolhaus are all better at defense than offense, and Faja, who was bought out and loaned, will most likely occupy the main midfielder position in the new season.
Bergandinhos is one of the few Laco youth training products in the team, and his main position is intercepting midfielder.
Mosquera is a tough midfielder. He received 10 yellow cards last season and was suspended for the first game of the new season due to accumulated yellow cards.
Moroccan international Fadja joined the team on loan last season and performed well. He was bought out and retained in the new season.
Although Andone, the West Second Division Silver Boot who represented Romania in the European Cup, was introduced on the front line, Lucas Perez performed too well last season (17 goals and 8 assists) and participated in more than half of the team’s goals. If he can continue to maintain such a thigh-level performance, Perez’s main position will be difficult to shake.
As for another striker Oriol Riera, except for his time at Osasuna three years ago, his season goals failed to exceed double digits, and he only scored 2 goals last season.
Lucas Perez, a local player from La Coruña who returned to La Liga two years ago, had an explosion last season and his value has reached tens of millions of euros.
Andone won the West Second Division Silver Boot last season, scored 21 goals and assisted 7 goals, but he missed the promotion play-offs because of participating in the European Cup.
Oriol Riera is a player from Barcelona La Masia.
Garitano, the head coach of Deportivo La Coruna in the new season, was the head coach of Eibar in the previous seasons. He is the 84th coach in the history of Deportivo La Coruna and the third coach signed by the new president during his two-year term.
Osasuna, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao are the only four teams in Spain that maintain a membership system. They created glory from 2002 to 2012, qualified for the Champions League play-offs, and entered the King’s Cup final.
A year ago, the team was on the verge of relegation in the Spanish Second Division. After the end of the Spanish Second Division last season, they ranked 6th. In the promotion play-offs, they defeated the 3rd-ranked Gimnasia Tarragona and the 4th-ranked Girona, and joined hands with Alaves and Leganes to be promoted to the Spanish First Division.
Last season in the Spanish Second Division, Osasuna’s offense and defense were only above the middle. Except for the coach Enrique Martin who was twice elected the best coach of the month, the team had no outstanding players. The top scorer in the team was midfielder Roberto Torres (12 goals).
And the 20-year-old Merino who performed well in the promotion play-offs has been poached by the Bundesliga Dortmund this summer.
Osasuna used the five-back position many times last season, and the important role was of course played by the Franio brothers, who are twins.
Osasuna has many youth training products of its own. In addition to the above four players who are all from Osasuna, there is also the 22-year-old David Garcia who can play as a central defender and defensive midfielder, and the 30-year-old veteran: Oyer, who played many different defensive positions last season.
After all, Osasuna has not been away for a long time. I believe that many fans who often watch La Liga are still familiar with veterans such as De Las Cuevas and Nino. De Las Cuevas briefly left Osasuna last season to join Spezia in Serie B, but he returned during the winter break and contributed 3 assists in the promotion play-offs.
Osasuna’s new season’s signings are not strong on the front line at present. Cordero, who is over 180cm tall and was born in the Real Sociedad youth training, may continue to play the spearhead.
Although he did not contribute much in the regular season of the Spanish Second Division last season, he scored 2 goals in the last two games against Girona in the promotion play-offs, making great contributions to the team’s return to La Liga.
Perez, the goalkeeper of Osasuna, deserves special mention. He transferred from Sabadell in Catalonia to Osasuna last season and quickly secured a starting position.
However, the most amazing experience of this bald goalkeeper was in the 2011-2012 season when he reached the semi-finals of the King’s Cup with Mirandas, which was still in the third level (Senior B Group). In the end, they lost to Athletic Bilbao and failed to enter the final.
Due to the departure of three midfielders, Merino (transferred to Dortmund), Manuel Sanchez (transferred to Alconco), and Mesa (transferred to Mirandas), Osasuna mainly added personnel in this position in the summer window: former Arsenal player Merida, Serbian midfielder Goran Cavusic, Fausto, in addition, they introduced winger Romero who played for Zaragoza last season from Udinese.
Last season, Osasuna used a 5-defender position in half of the games, and the rest of the games were mainly 4-2-3-1.
In the new season, their defense line has not changed much, and it is more likely that they will continue to use the tactics used in the promotion play-offs. The only variable comes from the addition of many new players in the midfield and the full-backs.
For coach Enrique Martin, he took over Osasuna in the middle of the 1993/94 season and coached the La Liga, but failed to complete the task of relegation. This is the first time he has experienced a full La Liga season in the new season. Can he lead the team to successfully relegation?
Two years ago, Malaga invited Javi Gracia, who had just led Osasuna to relegation. The team continued the pain after entering the Champions League in the 2011-2012 season and continued to maintain the mid-level results of La Liga. The arrival of the new coach Juande Ramos seems to indicate that the Andalusian team wants to regain its glory.
Since the old coach was dismissed in Dnipro, Ukraine, he has been unemployed for a long time. This is no longer the Juande Ramos in Tottenham or Sevilla. Perhaps this is in line with Malaga’s current positioning in La Liga.
This summer, veterans Santa Cruz and Uche left the Malaga forward line, as well as Ghanaian midfielder Astu, who joined the team on loan last season. Mexican goalkeeper Ochoa, who performed well in the Brazil World Cup, has been squeezed to the bench by Kameni. His transfer to Granada has little impact on the team. After all, Malaga is not a team that needs to fight on multiple fronts now.
The main center back position, Albentusa, transferred to Derby County in the English Championship, and the forward, Croatian teenager Djokovic, returned on loan and joined Sporting Gijon. These are two relatively important losses.
However, Malaga’s new players on the offensive end have made great moves. Barcelona’s Sandro, Uruguay’s River Plate Athletic Team’s Michel Santos, Eibar’s Kerko, and Sporting Gijon’s Jonny had very impressive data and performance last season. Compared with the forward line supported by Kop and Brazilian veteran Charles last season, the potential and strength have been upgraded.
However, as the team’s top scorer last season, Charles is still competing for a main position, and we can’t forget the 18-year-old young player Javier Otiberos of the Spanish National Youth Team.
Malaga has said goodbye to the route of burning money, hoping to gain something from young people.
In terms of the defense line, the central defender partner of the team vice-chairman Wellington may be among the new players.
But whether it is the Burkina Faso central defender Bakary Kone who came from Lyon, or the Venezuelan new player Villanueva, the level and strength are questionable.
His partner may be Diego Llorente.
The other positions on the Malaga defense line will not change much. The full-backs are Rosales and Miguel Torres, as well as the team vice-chairman Wellington, and the Cameroonian goalkeeper Kameni who squeezed out Ochoa last season.
People to watch: MSN, Ter Stegen, Denis Suarez
1) New players
Six new players were bought this season. Except for Cillessen, the other six players are all 22/23 years old.
Why?
1. Last season, they suffered from the lack of substitutes. Except for Munir, the regular foreign players on the bench were all midfielders and defenders, leaving no room for changes in formation and rhythm;
2. It is related to the punishment for illegal operations in youth training: FIFA has cancelled the registration qualifications of many players under the age of 18 in Barcelona. For example, does this kid look familiar to you?
Kubo Takefusa, born in 2001, was a young genius who signed with Barcelona N years ago.
