Chapter 389 The legendary temperature difference sign

"Arsenal is close to signing Schalke 04 star Goretzka..."

That day, Pan Yi saw such a piece of news in the newspaper, and couldn't help but cheer up and read it carefully.

"Arsenal has basically made no moves this summer. Apart from the fact that goalkeeper Petr Cech, who was on loan from Chelsea last season, has been confirmed to be bought out for 10 million pounds, there has been no forced transfer."

"On the contrary, they sold Podolski to Turkey's Galatasaray for 1.8 million, and Ryo Miyaichi, Diaby and others left the team on free transfers."

"Therefore, the move to Goretzka was considered an important move by Wenger, a player he considered to have great potential."

"The 20-year-old German midfielder has already shown his ability in the Bundesliga. He played for Bochum at the age of 17, and was subsequently poached by Schalke 04, and played in the two

He made a total of 44 appearances for Schalke 04 this season."

"His comprehensive ability in the midfield was obviously noticed by the German national team coach Loew. In May 2014, Goretzka was selected for the German national team for the first time and started in a warm-up match against Poland.

.”

"Wenger said that Arsenal will do their best to sign Goretzka, who will become an important pillar of Arsenal's midfield in the future..."

Seeing this, Pan Yi touched his chin.

Yes, Gretzka.

Isn't this guy my favorite all-around midfielder?

He can play as an attacking midfielder, midfielder or defensive midfielder on the central axis, and can completely replace the gap left by the departure of Ramirez and Mikel.

And maybe even stronger than the combined abilities of these two people!

He is somewhat similar to the German legend Ballack. He is tall but not slow. Especially when the midfielder moves forward, he has a great threat.

Specifically, it has the following characteristics:

First, take the ball with your back, turn around and push forward.

The midfielder's ability to hold the ball is a major characteristic of Goretzka. Especially in the case of close defense, he has enough ability to cope with it. Facing the defense, he can pick up the ball with his back and turn around to advance with the ball. The whole action is done in one go.

, showing solid personal skills and abilities.

Taking the ball behind the back is not necessarily just a skill that a center needs to possess. Even midfielders need to have such conditions to be able to give the team the opportunity to counterattack and break through during a high-pressure press.

Second, the pass is accurate and the court vision is good.

When participating in the team's offense, Goretzka can use his passing skills and has good court vision, which can make him more penetrating in passing, even if it is composed of multiple players.

Goretzka has the ability to penetrate any defense.

As a midfielder, he is very threatening with scalpel-like precise through balls. Now Goretzka has exactly this ability, and his creativity can be said to be quite amazing.

Third, long-range shooting is a conventional offensive method.

In the process of attacking, Goretzka's threat is not only reflected in organization and passing. He will occasionally hit the mountain with a long shot, and even has the ability to score the ball and create goals for the team.

, expand the score.

Having the ability to shoot long distance also allows Goretz to handle the ball in more ways in the midfield position. He does not need to pass the ball to the teammates in front of him all the time. As long as the opportunity allows, he can be relied on at any time.

Let’s try to hit the door based on our personal ability.

Fourth, man-to-man defense in the midfield, interception and steals.

In addition to offense, Goretzka's defensive ability cannot be ignored. In the midfield position, he has a certain degree of aggressiveness and a strong sense of personal marking. Moreover, he is tall and can give the enemy defensive skills.

The players brought a great sense of pressure.

In addition, Goretzka also has the ability to steal the ball. During the process of close defense, he will look for opportunities to regain the ball and create counterattack opportunities from defense to offense, posing a great offensive threat.

To sum up, Goretzka performed well both offensively and defensively. He can be regarded as a comprehensive player, a true hexagon warrior, or a B2B midfielder.

Wouldn't it be nice to bring him over to cooperate with Kanter in the midfield, two versatile midfielders?

Maybe he's not strong enough now, but that doesn't matter. Let's start building muscle immediately after he gets it!

In Pan Yi's previous life, Goretzka was able to gain a foothold in Bayern Munich and the German national team, which are full of famous players, which itself shows his strength.

It's just that German players have always been relatively low-key, and their reputation is often inferior to players from countries such as England of the same level. This made Pan Yi not think of this guy for a while.

When Pan Yi was considering midfielders before, he was always thinking about Modric, Rakitic, David Silva, Isco, Vidal... and the like.

However, these famous players are either too old and do not fit in with Pan Yi's idea of ​​building a team; or they are too expensive and always feel uneconomical, so they have been shelved.

I really didn't expect it. Wenger's ability in discovering new talents is really impressive.

Wenger is actually ready to take action on players that Pan Yi and I didn’t even notice!

That won't work.

Why don't you take action to intercept Hu?

Anyway, they just have an intention and haven't actually signed a contract and made it official yet.

Moreover, the "temperature difference signature" is not done once or twice. I believe the professor is used to it.

After making up his mind, Pan Yi set off immediately without further ado!

Where to go?

Of course to Germany.

With my face, Pan Yi, and my sharp tongue, I can definitely convince that magnetic card to surrender!

——

Wenger is in a very good mood today.

Because in the afternoon, the young German midfielder he is interested in will come to the training base for a medical examination with Arsenal, and this is almost a symbol of successful signing.

Initially, Goretzka was not Wenger's first choice.

On the one hand, he is too young, only 20 years old, and lacks competition experience. On the other hand, they think that his value is too high and it is a very risky investment.

Although this deal actually only costs Arsenal about 10 million euros, it is still a bit much for Wenger who is now spending a penny in half.

Because of this, he just bought out the loaned Cech in this summer window, and then made no other moves.

But in the end Wenger decided to bite the bullet and take down Goretzka!

The main reason is that Arsenal's current midfielder needs fresh blood.

Captain Arteta is already old. He only played seven games for the team last season and is basically on the verge of retirement.

Including Flamini and Cazorla, they are all over 30, and their competitive status has begun to decline.

And once Goretzka can successfully integrate into Arsenal, Arsenal may not have to worry about the midfield position in the next 10 years.

After all, there are young talents like Ramsey and Wilshere on the team who can grow with him.

Signing Goretzka is an adventure, and the final result can only be tested through games.

Of course, Wenger is quite satisfied with Goretzka's performance in the Bundesliga in the past two seasons and is quite optimistic about this young all-around midfielder.

At this moment, an assistant hurriedly opened the door and walked into Wenger's office.

"What are you so worried about?" Wenger looked up.

"Gretzka's agent Edin just called and said that Goretzka has something to do and won't be able to come over today," the assistant said.

Wenger was shocked: "What?"

At that moment, Wenger remembered the names of many stars: Messi, Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic...

These are all famous figures in "Temperature Difference Sign".

When Wenger went to La Masia to observe Cesc Fabregas, he also tried to bring Messi to Arsenal, but unfortunately he failed in the end.

Cristiano Ronaldo was personally confirmed on a show by Arsenal fan Piers Morgan that he was only "one step away" from joining Arsenal. Wenger also joked that "there is only 500,000 pounds left to sign Cristiano Ronaldo."

In 2000, the professor wanted to sign Ibrahimovic, but asked for a trial first. The 19-year-old Swede arrogantly said: "Zlatan never does trials." Arsenal has missed out on the great player since then.

After that, there are even Buffon, Pique, Yaya Toure, Pogba, Di Maria, Cavani... and a long list of very famous names.

There are two very famous examples.

One is Suarez.

When the Uruguayan striker became famous in Liverpool, Arsenal made a bid for 40 million + 1 pound...

That's because Arsenal knew there was a clause in Suarez's contract that allowed him to leave for more than £40 million.

But this "insulting offer" was rejected.

Everyone knows the subsequent story, Suarez switched to Barcelona for 75 million pounds.

The other one, and the more famous one, is Higuain who was lost in the medical examination room.

This was a transfer turmoil when Higuain joined Arsenal in 2013.

Before that season, there was a lot of news that Arsenal was about to sign striker Higuain from Real Madrid. Many well-known and authoritative media in European football had confirmed that the Argentine striker was about to join the Gunners.
