Li Ang did not expect the meeting with Zanetti to go so smoothly.
He only explained his tactics to Zanetti in detail. At the time, he was also on a whim and wanted to explain to Zanetti why Chiri González and the players he purged were not suitable for his tactics.
However, he did not expect to win Zanetti's approval. Of course, there was still a certain distance from trust, but it was enough.
Zanetti promised to help Li Ang stabilize the locker room and not let the locker room become a hindrance for Li Ang to lead Inter Milan forward.
For Li Ang, Zanetti's attitude was quite good. He could see that Zanetti was indeed a worthy professional player and was very loyal to Inter Milan. It was only because he saw that Li Ang's work was helpful to Inter Milan and that there was hope to lead Inter Milan to glory that he let go of some dissatisfaction in his heart and firmly expressed his support.
Li Ang liked this kind of captain who was not very strong but could still win the respect of the locker room.
He also believed that as he led Inter Milan forward and achieved good results, Zanetti's attitude toward him would only be more trusting and respectful.
In Inter Milan's locker room, there could only be one voice, and that was Li Ang's voice!
*****
That afternoon, Inter Milan's training for the new season officially began.
Li Ang met with the Inter Milan players. The players who played for Inter Milan last season also met their young manager for the first time.
Among the new players, Juan Carlos, Juan Mata, and Luca Modric reported on time.
The veteran Luis Figo and the Argentinian Walter Samuels also reported on time.
The newly signed French left-back Patrice Evra also reported on time.
As for Mai Kong, he had to deal with some personal matters in Monaco, so he took two days off and delayed his report.
Ronaldo also finished dealing with his personal affairs in Brazil and reported on time.
Among these players, Mata, Carlos and Modric, the three direct players that Li Ang brought from Sporting de Gijón, were very happy to see the boss again. Compared to the players who stayed at Sporting de Gijón or transferred from Sporting de Gijón to other teams, they felt that they were the luckiest. Mata and Ribéry spoke on the phone. The French scarface was envious of Mata and complained about why the boss did not choose to take him to Inter Milan.
In addition, Bonucci and Marchisio, the two Italian rookies, were also very excited. They were personally selected by Li Ang to the First Team, which showed that the manager valued them.
Of course, there were also some players who were unhappy. They looked at Li Ang with complicated emotions and resentment.
Keke was one of the first players to be put on the transfer list by Li Ang. He had not found a new club yet.
Chiri González had received the notice that he was not in Li Ang's plan.
Potenza, C. Zanetti and the veteran Mihajlović also received the notice that they were put on the transfer market.
Li Ang released the final purge list.
These players did not look good. For them, participating in Inter Milan's training for the new season was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that they had to find a new club quickly.
*****
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Li Ang. From now on, I will be your manager. You will train and play under me. I hope you understand that you are facing a champion manager! "
Li Ang looked at the players in front of him with his head held high.
His words were direct and domineering!
Now he had the capital to be so domineering.
Because he was the first manager in the history of La Liga to win the treble!
Because he was the youngest manager in the history of European football to win the treble!
If he was facing Ferguson's Manchester United, or Ancelotti's AC Milan, or Capello's Juventus, Li Ang might not have the confidence to say that.
However, he was facing Inter Milan's players who had not won the title for many years. They had been suppressed by Juventus and AC Milan in the league for many years. They had not had any breakthroughs in the European arena. He had the capital to be proud.
"Of course, there is one more thing that needs to be clear." Li Ang paused for a moment. "These players in front of me will also become champions! Because you are the players that I have carefully selected! "
Hearing this, Carlos, Mata and Modric, the three young players, straightened their backs.
The others looked at Li Ang. No matter what, they felt a little better after hearing this.
"However, before you can really pick up the championship, you need to put in a lot of effort and sweat! As for how to do it? You will understand later. "Li Ang's lips curled into a smile.
*****
Soon, the players understood the meaning of the manager's words.
Li Ang had formulated an almost strict training plan for the team, which made the players, who had just finished their vacation, complain incessantly.
Some of the players who had complaints in their hearts could not say anything when they saw Li Ang's direct players, Mata, Carlos and Modric, who were brought over from Sporting de Gijón, train meticulously and seriously.
In addition, Samuels, who had transferred over from Real Madrid, also trained seriously. Having witnessed Li Ang's legend in Spain, Samuels, as a bystander, knew best how powerful Li Ang was, so he did not dare to be lazy.
The captain, Zanetti, led by example and trained very seriously. Even Ronaldo, who always liked to play, trained more seriously.
Zanetti was the captain, and Ronaldo was the team's current biggest star player. They both led by example, so the others naturally could not say anything.
This made some people, such as Keke, who were prepared to see Li Ang make a fool of himself, a little disappointed.
Li Ang handed over the training to his assistant, Banderas. He observed from the side. He was satisfied with Ronaldo's attitude towards training. Knowing that his "illness" could be controlled and treated, Ronaldo was in a good state of mind. Li Ang also made an appointment with Ronaldo to give him the first treatment in three days.
After observing for a while, he handed over the training to Banderas. Li Ang sat on the bench and began to busy himself with other things.
Although the team had already started training, it did not mean that the signings were over. The team still needed to strengthen some positions. Li Ang's current goal was to recruit strikers.
Inter Milan's current forward line had Adriano, Ronaldo and Cruise. Adriano and Ronaldo would occupy the two main positions. Cruise was Adriano's substitute. The configuration of three strikers was not enough. Li Ang needed to bring in at least one more player who could fill in at critical moments.
