Chapter 148 Valencia
Barcelona's current tactics are playing pass-and-control football, and in terms of formation, it is mainly a 433 formation.

Among the three forwards in the frontcourt, Pedro's short stature and flexible feet determine that he is not suitable for the role of a center forward in the middle, but a winger on the two sides.

He is proficient with both left and right feet, allowing him to play on both sides and be competitive on both sides.But really counting, his chances are not many.

The starting left winger is naturally Henry. As the king of Highbury, Henry's strength and status will inevitably occupy a main position.In this position, Barcelona still has Ronaldinho. Of course, due to the deepening conflict with the club, Ronaldinho's main position is no longer guaranteed.But Iniestan's sudden emergence, as well as Bojan and Gudjohnsen, are all competitors on the left.

In the position of right winger, Messi, as the new king, must have a stable starting position!As long as he is healthy, he will be the starter. This is Rijkaard's coaching philosophy.

So Pedro's status is actually very embarrassing.

He is only 20 years old, and he is in a stage where he needs competition and training to grow up. If there is not enough competition and training, even the best gems will be dusted.

But now Barcelona obviously can't give Pedro these.

"So what? Ronaldinho is already planning a transfer, Messi can't be an iron man, I also have a chance!" Pedro insisted.

"Second question, do you think you love Barcelona?" Gallardo didn't answer, but continued to ask.

"Of course I love..." Pedro felt that the question was too simple.He came from the La Masia youth academy, he doesn't love Barcelona, ​​who would love him more?

Yes, of course someone loves it more!

Messi, Harvey, Iniesta, Valdés, who grew up from La Masia, who loves less than Pedro?In addition to these people in the team, there are Pique, Cesc Fabregas, Luis Garcia... These people also love Barcelona.

Pique even has a grandfather who has served as Barcelona's vice president in charge of finance for 20 consecutive years. He was registered as a Barcelona club member a few hours after his birth.

Who can compare to such love?

At least Pedro sighed.

Pedro's hometown is not Catalonia, where Barcelona is located. He was born in Trinefe, Spain. He joined the La Masia youth training camp at the age of 17 and became a teammate of Messi and Cesc Fabregas. .

In three years, whether it is long or short, the red and blue colors have been integrated into Pedro's blood.

In Pedro's view, he just wants to be a consistent player like Maldini, Giggs and Raul.

"Spare me, this kind of thing from the beginning to the end belongs to the superstars such as Maldini and Scholes who have been able to maintain a very high level! It is difficult for players with average strength to appear on the field, so how can they Is there a chance to play until retirement? Ferguson's class of 92 is amazing? But how many people can really retire at Manchester United? Beckham went to Real Madrid, Butt went to Newcastle, Phil Neville is now Everton... ..."

Torrado's words pierced Pedro's heart like a needle.

Although it sounds ugly, there is an irrefutable truth.

These are all true!

So do I stay here, sit on the bench for many years, and then be a backup player?

It seems... still a bit unwilling!

There are too many talented people, but my talent is still too mediocre...

"Actually, this is not against your original intention," Toral said: "Now you have no chance to play, and you can't even participate in the competition. But if you play well in Manchester City, will Barcelona turn a blind eye? He will definitely call you Come back! You see Bregas, isn’t it a good example? You have no hesitation!”

Pedro's heart was moved by Toral's words.

Although reluctant, Pedro knew that he had actually agreed.

"Even if we leave, there's no need to go to Manchester City." Pedro insisted.

In the eyes of many Spanish players, Manchester City is an upstart team.Went to Manchester City, it seems like a drop in price.

"Because they are the only team interested in you, and they pay a lot of money." Gallardo explained with a shrug.

……

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain and the "Sunshine City" in Europe. It is located in the southeast of Spain and borders the sea in the east.

"When I retire, I must buy a house in Valencia! When winter comes, I will fly over here to spend the winter!" Wandering in the warm sunshine of Valencia, Jim Cassell said seriously.

This little old man from England with a pair of red noses is very happy to swear.

"Jim, I don't think you would have such an idea!" Duncan shrugged.

"Why? I'm rich!" The little old man in England was a little unconvinced.

"Because I guarantee that at this time of year in the future, you will have countless games to play. You have absolutely no intention of running to Valencia, just because of the warm sunshine here!"

Jim Cassell was overjoyed. Duncan said this, meaning that Manchester City's future results will be brilliant!Because only a team that advances on all fronts has countless games to play.

"No, I want to buy a house too. Even if my people are not here to enjoy the warm winter sun, my house will be enjoyed for me!"

……

In the spacious chairman's office of Valencia, Duncan met the chairman of Valencia, Juan Soler.

The chairman is also a wonderful businessman. Not only did he fire three head coaches within a year, but even a few years after he stepped down as chairman, he even hired a killer to murder another club chairman because of personal conflicts.

Although Valencia is not a wealthy team, it is also a well-known strong team in La Liga. It has produced many famous stars: Aimar, Canizares, Joaquin, Albelda...

David Silva, who just passed his 22nd birthday, is just a relatively outstanding rookie in front of these famous names, but he also has unlimited development potential.

David Silva joined Valencia at the age of 14. After entering the youth team, David Silva got a chance to rent out.In the last season, David Silva performed well in Celta, not only helping the team achieve No.6 in La Liga, but also locking in a qualification for the Europa League.

David Silva returned to the team last season, played well in both the attacking midfielder and the right wing, and gradually occupied a main position.

At a young age, David Silva has shown superb dribbling ability, dribbling skills, and excellent speed, which makes him an excellent winger on the wing.

The wide vision and excellent detoxification ability also allow him to deliver precise passes that tear apart the opponent's defense, and he can also play as an attacking midfielder in the middle with ease.
