Extraordinary coach

"Yeah. It's really frustrating. When will there be good news?"

"It's rare that we have so much money this time. Let's buy a better striker quickly."

Affected by the speculation of the outside world, the fans of the Southampton team are also full of expectations for Sun Yi's next big move.

They dare not be as bold as the outside world guesses, but they also think that they should be able to buy a big-name striker worth 50 million pounds next.

It's just that Southampton has not come out with any news, and it's getting closer and closer to the closing of the summer transfer window. The fans can't help but start to get anxious.

And just before the third round of the Premier League, Southampton finally had news.

They intercepted Lozano, who used to play for Pachuca in the Mexican League, from PSV Eindhoven.

Lozano, born in 1995, is also a striker. But his transfer value is only 10 million pounds.

In fact, if Sun Yi hadn't intercepted from PSV Eindhoven, he wouldn't have to spend so much money. It is estimated that he could buy it for 7 or 8 million.

Although it cost 10 million pounds, Sun Yi still thought it was worth it.

But the outside world was not happy.

"It took a long time to come up with this?"

"A striker with a premium of only 10 million pounds can be presented?"

"Disappointment! It's really disappointing. There is no big-name player as expected, only a small shrimp with no reputation. It's really speechless. With so much money, why do you buy players who are not up to the standard?"

"Could it be that Sun has something else to do?"

The outside world was really disappointed that Sun Yi bought Lozano. They had to think that Sun Yi should have something else to do.

Unfortunately, after buying Lozano, Sun Yi announced that his goal of signing players had been completed.

"What, it's over?" When they heard that Sun Yi was not going to sign any more players, those who were looking forward to Southampton's big signings were a little bit unacceptable. Especially those fans who were full of expectations were very dissatisfied.

"Didn't you say that there were still tens of millions of funds? Why didn't you buy it?"

There were still tens of millions of funds?

Sun Yi wanted to say, why didn't I know Southampton was so rich?

In fact, Sun Yi really didn't have much money.

Originally, Southampton offered Firmino 35 million pounds. But after buying Pulisic, there was not enough money to buy Firmino.

Although Sun Yi bought several players later, he only recovered 20 million pounds.

Adding the remaining money before, Sun Yi actually only had a little more than 30 million on hand. Not as much as the outside world speculated. Adding all these together, it is not possible to make the big transfer of more than 50 million pounds expected by the outside world.

After spending 10 million to intercept Lozano, Sun Yi only had more than 20 million on hand.

But Sun Yi was not going to use this money. He had to keep it for the winter transfer and use it to strengthen according to needs.

And after buying Lozano, Sun Yi believed that the players he had had initially met his requirements.

The main lineup in his mind also came out.

With 4231 as the main formation.

Center: Rebic (A-level strength, A+ level potential).

Left and right wingers: Golovin (A-level strength, A+ level potential), Pulisic (A-level strength, S-level potential), / Lozano (A-level strength, A+ potential).

Attacking midfielder: Prowse (A-level strength, A+ level potential) / Raymond (A-level strength, A-level potential) / Kaka (B+ level strength, no potential but can recover strength).

Defensive midfielder: Captain Stephen Davis (A-level strength, no potential), Romeu (A-level strength, no potential).

Defenders: Bertrand (A-level strength, no potential), Van Dijk (A+ level strength, S-level potential), Maya Yoshida (A-level strength, no potential), Cedric Suarez (A-level strength, A-level potential).

Goalkeeper: Foster (A-level strength, no potential).

The above is Sun Yi's temporary main lineup.

There are also a number of reserve players who can be the main players at any time. For example: Pavard, Bednarek, Joe Gomez, Arnold and other young players.

And several of the team's main players before, in Sun Yi's mind, can only be completely reduced to potential backup. For example, midfielder Tadic (A-level strength, no potential), striker Gabiadini (A-level strength, close to the potential limit), and Buffal.

It is precisely because Sun Yi's main lineup has been decided that Sun Yi is not going to spend too much energy on transfers. If he encounters someone who makes his eyes shine, he will certainly buy again.

In addition, Sun Yi decided to transfer all his energy to the team. Now it is time for him to start formally transforming Southampton into what he wants.

Sun Yi thinks that the current transfer is enough. However, many people outside feel that their feelings have been deceived.

"Does Southampton mean they are not going to recruit any more players? Where is the big deal we are expecting?"

"Look at all the transfers that Sun has made since he took over as coach of Southampton. What the hell are they?"

"All the transfers that Southampton has made so far, except for the one for Pulisic, are just small-time transfers. This stingy look is just like Grandet II."

"Even the largest one, 25 million pounds, is nothing in the Premier League. But what is even more incredible is that this money was spent on Pulisic, an 18-year-old kid."

"These transfers are really incomprehensible. Sun's buying behavior is simply nonsense. It is completely incomparable with the practices of other mature coaches."

"From Sun's purchases, this is probably a direct reflection of his lack of coaching experience and experience."

After the outside world examined Sun Yi's transfers, they directly believed that it was caused by his lack of experience. Therefore, they no longer had such high expectations for his coaching.

"If Sun really doesn't buy another striker with enough money, I think his first coaching season will definitely not be ideal."

"Most of the newly bought players are very young players. There are not many who can play. It is too idealistic to rely on these players to strengthen the Southampton team."

"Because these players cannot take on the heavy responsibility without two or three seasons of training."

"It can almost be judged that Sun's coaching results will not be very good. Let alone the championship, it will be difficult to qualify for the European Cup. After all, this is the Premier League, the most competitive and cruel league in the world. The difficulty of coaching is definitely not comparable to Ligue 1."

"Don't talk too far, even in the third round of the Premier League, it will be difficult for Sun to achieve ideal results."
