Volume 1: When a Hero Appears, People Pay Attention. Chapter 47: Lavezzi’s Situation (First Update Guaranteed)

Chapter 47 Lavezzi’s situation (first update guaranteed)

Lavezzi returned home and called his agent Aledro Mazzoni.

"Aledro, help me contact other teams."

Mazzone was startled, but soon understood what was going on.

In fact, as early as last season, there were rumors that Lavezzi was leaving Naples, but these rumors were all started by Mazzoni in order to help Lavezzi put pressure on the top management of the Naples club for a salary increase.

As a result, Mazzone hit a wall with club president De Laurentiis.

De Laurentiis threatened: "If one of my actors dares to speak to me like that, I will kill him directly!"

Mazzone had nothing to do with such a club president, because he didn't play his cards according to the rules...

In the first half of this season, Lavezzi was in good form, but Chen Yingxiong, whom De Laurentiis spent a lot of money to introduce, did not perform well. This gave Mazzone the idea of ​​blackmailing the club again - look at me Player Lavezzi performs so well, how much is his weekly salary? And what about your Chen Yingxiong? His weekly salary is definitely twice that of Lavezzi. How is his performance? Typical high salary and low energy!

Therefore, Naples needs to rely heavily on my player Lavezzi, not Chen Yingxiong.

For such an important player to the team, the annual salary of one million euros a year is too little, right?

He was about to go to the club manager Marino to talk about this matter - he didn't dare to talk to De Laurentiis, that person was too moody - when he received this call from Lavezzi.

"Is it for real this time? It's not just for a raise?"

Lavezzi shook his head: "No. I think of bigger teams."

Mazzoni smiled: "It should have been like this a long time ago, Ezequiel! It should have been like this a long time ago! I happen to know that some teams are interested in you..."

Mazzone hung up the phone with a proud smile on his face. He is thinking about what will happen to that damn old man's face one day when De Laurentiis knows that Lavezzi left the club because he did not give him a salary increase and that Lavezzi went to another team and performed well. What kind of expression?

Go ahead and regret it!

※ ※ ※

No one knows that Lavezzi made a phone call with his agent Mazzone, and until these rumors are exposed, they will always be stories that never happened.

After three consecutive games without a win, Naples won another two consecutive games. In the league standings, their ranking has risen to sixth, and they have re-entered the ranking sequence that is eligible to participate in the European war.

This is undoubtedly good news for Naples.

In the first half of the season, their league rankings fluctuated, rising to fourth place in the league for a while, and quickly falling to outside the tenth place for a while.

Such ups and downs are as exciting as a roller coaster.

But no Napoli fan would want such excitement all the time? Who doesn’t want his team to firmly occupy the top position in the league standings from the first round of the league and then not fall down?

Those who like the ups and downs are definitely neutral fans watching the excitement.

I have just returned from Florence, and if I am not exhausted, I have to face Udinese at home.

This game is also difficult to play. First of all, Udinese is not weak. Secondly, Russia just played an away game two days ago. The time is too tight. How much the players' physical fitness and condition can be maintained is uncertain. is unknown.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the current Russian team has no other games to play except playing domestic leagues. They were eliminated from the UEFA Cup group stage and also from the Coppa Italia.

Last season, as a newly promoted team, they qualified for the International Toto Cup. Qualifying for the UEFA Cup qualifying rounds in the last Toto Cup match in history gave everyone high hopes for the team's performance in the new season.

Unexpectedly, an ups and downs in the first half of the season completely destroyed the team's character...

Now Naples fans can only look forward to the domestic league.

Originally, if the situation continued as it did in the first half of the season, I was afraid that the team would have to avoid relegation in the end.

Unexpectedly, after two rounds in the second half of the season, Chen Yingxiong suddenly broke out and brought the team two consecutive victories. The team's points instantly jumped to sixth in the league, and they suddenly had the hope of participating in the UEFA Cup.

The dying fire of hope in the hearts of the fans was rekindled.

Do we still have hope of competing in European competitions next season?

Considering that the players had just experienced the match against Fiorentina, Mazzarri made a small change in this game and replaced several players.

Lavezzi returned to the starting lineup.

Despite Lavezzi's harsh words to Mazzarri, Mazzarri still planned to give him a chance. After all, Naples can only use him now.

But it was clear that Lavezzi's performance disappointed him. Lavezzi, who had already made up his mind to leave Naples, still went his own way and did not pass the ball to Chen Yingxiong at all.

It's impossible for two people to work together.

But fortunately, Arshavin and Chen Yingxiong cooperate very well in Naples.

So in the first 30 minutes, Naples took a 2:0 lead at home. Chen Yingxiong scored in three consecutive rounds, creating his best result since landing in Serie A.

He also fiercely hit back at the media who doubted that he was about to fall into a goal drought.

But this time he didn't slap the fans after scoring a goal, not because the fans booed less, but because he found a new way to counterattack - he lifted up his jersey after scoring, revealing the inside. A t-shirt that read: "This is a goal drought, I'm so scared!"

Those who once asserted that Chen Yingxiong's state was ups and downs and that he would surely fall into a goal drought. At this time, their faces were really uglier than the death of their own father...

Chen Yingxiong did not slap them in the face, but his T-shirt was slapping them in the face.

A commentator laughed after seeing the words on Chen Yingxiong's T-shirt.

Anyone who can laugh must be someone who has never done anything wrong to Chen Yingxiong...

The team's second goal came from Arshavin, which was completely a reflection of his personal skills. Arshavin, who received Hamsik's pass, tried to play one-on-one with Chen Yingxiong, tricking the player defending him into moving inside, but he chose to break through.

After relying on speed to overtake, Arshavin decisively started at a small angle.

The football passed between the legs of Udinese goalkeeper Samir Handanovic. In the process of passing through the crotch, it was knocked by Handanovic's foot and the line changed slightly. Finally flew into the goal.

It’s different from Chen Yingxiong’s half cheering and half booing after he scored a goal. Although Arshavin is a good friend of Chen Yingxiong, he did not show any disrespect to the Naples fans, so when he scored his first goal since joining Naples, there was a huge cheer at the Sao Paulo Stadium.

They took a two-goal lead before the first half was over, which made Naples fans very optimistic about winning the game.

Unexpectedly, just four minutes after taking the lead, Aronica made a mistake in the penalty area. He tripped Udinese forward Fabio Quagliarella (fabio_quagliarella). The referee imposed the death penalty and sentenced A penalty for Udinese!

The penalty kick was scored by antonio_di_natale.

The score was tied at 2:1. The Napoli people also felt what they gave the Florentine people a taste of in the last round of the league.

The Udinese team, who had equalized the score, had high morale and finally equalized the score before the end of the first half. This time it was Gagliarella who scored.

In just one half, the two sides scored four goals, and Naples went from leading by two goals to being equalized.

This process has been full of ups and downs, just like their first half of the season, with highs and lows.

Naples tried to counterattack in the second half, but because Lavezzi and Chen Yingxiong couldn't cooperate, they had to rely on one path. For Udinese, it is much easier to contain Naples' offensive.

So throughout the second half, despite the hard work of the Naples team, they still could not break Udinese's goal.

In the end, they could only accept the result of a 2:2 draw, and their upward momentum was curbed.

But who is to blame?

Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the game. He shouldn't bear the failure for the draw, right?

Wrong, there are still media criticizing him, criticizing him for only scoring one goal...

"If Chen Yingxiong can score a few more goals, the suspense of this game will be lost. How can there be a counterattack by Udinese?"

Of course, more media will criticize Lavezzi.

Everyone has seen Lavezzi's poor performance in these games. Ever since Chen Yingxiong went crazy, Lavezzi seemed to have been completely covered by Chen Yingxiong's light, and his performance had completely lost his previous sharpness.

Everyone knows that Lavezzi and Chen Yingxiong have conflicts, but personal conflicts cannot affect the team's results. This should be the player's principle, right? Anyone who has personal grievances that affect the team's performance often does not receive support from the outside world.

So no matter how famous Lavezzi was in Naples last season, it can't help him now.

His numb expression during the game was also published in the sports section of the newspaper.

Criticisms of him abounded.

"...Lavezzi performed quite poorly in yesterday's game!"

"What? Lavezzi started yesterday? Don't be ridiculous, I didn't see him at all!"

"The current problem of Lavezzi is that he cannot cooperate with the whole team. It is obvious that Mazzarri wants to correct Chen Yingxiong. If Lavezzi does not correct his mentality, I am afraid he will be completely abandoned by Mazzarri..."

"It is said that in the game against Roma, Lavezzi felt resentful because he was replaced early by Mazzarri, so he went straight back to the locker room, took a shower and changed clothes, and then went home directly. Such behavior angered Mazzarri , so in the away game against Florence, we did not see Lavezzi's name in the squad... Now Lavezzi's performance is obviously intensifying the conflict..."

"If you ask me, Naples has really had all kinds of conflicts this season - first there was the conflict between Chen Yingxiong and Naples fans, and the media, then there was the conflict between him and the head coach, and then the conflict between him and Lavezzi was also exposed. Now. The team changed its head coach, and the conflict between Chen Yingxiong and the head coach seemed to have disappeared, but the conflict between him and the fans was intensified. But Chen Yingxiong's side has not calmed down yet, Lavezzi broke out again. The contradictions of the new head coach Mazzarri...With so many contradictions, it really makes people worry about Napoli's results this season..."

"There are a lot of internal and external troubles, and Mazzarri still has many problems to solve. I am not optimistic about Naples' results this season at all. As for qualifying for the European competition, they should stay in Serie A first..."
