When Barcelona received a response from Lazio FC, they were actually quite happy. ăŹ.siluke.com idea ćźąăŹ
Although they offered a high price, they were willing to make an offer, which means that they were willing to sell Falcao. Compared with Real Madrid, who paid 40 million and was rejected by Chang Victory, Barcelona is simply a winner in life.
If you are not afraid of a high price, you are afraid of not making a price.
As long as you are willing to make a price, it means that this matter can be discussed, so any price can be discussed first.
Barcelona immediately returned a new price of 42 million euros and demanded that it be repaid in instalments over three years.
After Chang Sheng received Barcelona's counteroffer, he knew that the matter had basically entered the bargaining stage, so he didn't follow up.
He left the matter to Lotito and went about his business. Anyway, the bottom line he gave Lotito was not less than 50 million. He believed that with Lotito's ability, he would only talk about it high, not down.
Anyway, it's not himself who needs money the most, it's Lotito.

In the thirtieth round, Lazio lost 0:1 away to Fiorentina, but Inter Milan also lost 1:2 at home to Juventus.
So the difference between the two sides is still five points.
The 31st round of the league is a direct dialogue between the two sides.
If Lazio can beat Inter, they can extend the margin to eight points, which is already a considerable advantage with seven league games remaining.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, will certainly do their best to beat Lazio in the game so they can close the five-point gap to two.
If only two points are missing. There's still a chance to chase.
Otherwise, it's really better to surrender in advance.
Although they are playing away from home, a favourable condition for Inter Milan is that the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final will be Lazio in the middle of next week, and Lazio will face Arsenal, which is not an easy opponent to deal with. And it's away.
Inter Milan have already been knocked out of the Champions League by Chelsea.
They can now concentrate on playing the league and put all their energy into the league.
The media analysed the game and also thought that Inter Milan would have a better chance.
Lazio may not play with an all-out squad in the league, they will hide some of their main players.
But alas, Chang Sheng is the exact opposite of what they analyzed.
If you want to go further in the Champions League, with the current staffing of Lazio, there is still no way to exert force in the two-front battle at the same time.
Generally speaking. If they want to keep one side, they have to give up the other.
For example, giving up the league and focusing on the Champions League.
But there is another way, and that is to establish a huge lead in the league. Completely crush the opponent, so that they can't have the mind to catch up.
This game is such a great opportunity.
Because this is an opportunity for Lazio and Inter Milan to talk directly, if Lazio can win, they can lead Inter Milan by eight points, which is enough to make Inter Milan lose the courage and motivation to continue to catch up.
If you let go of this opportunity, even if it is just a draw, five points ahead of Inter Milan, it will give Inter Milan a chance to catch up. Because in the next fixtures, Lazio will not have the opportunity to face Inter Milan again, and they will not be able to decide the life and death of Inter Milan. If Inter Milan has been chasing after all the time. Isn't that all the way to the end Lazio under a lot of pressure in the league?
That is, always give your all at the same time on both presentations.
So. It's too much pressure on the team.
So the smart thing to do is to decide the fate of Inter Milan in this direct dialogue and let them go to hell completely!

So when Mancini saw that Lazio had started with all the main players, he was also taken aback.
This...... It doesn't make sense!
Are they going to give up the Champions League?
Mancini suddenly thought of such a possibility, and then a cold sweat broke out on his back......
How did he forget about this stubble!
Chang Sheng said before the start of the season that his team was going to defend the league title, and he didn't say a word about the Champions League! This shows that he did not intend to achieve anything in the Champions League from the beginning......
In the league and the Champions League. If he were asked to pick one, he would definitely choose the league......
Damn it!
Unfortunately, it was only an hour before the start of the game, and Mancini was too late to make any adjustments.
Fortunately, Inter Milan was already on the main force.
Let's go head-to-head......
Let's be honest. Mancini was a little uncertain......
â»â»â»
The commentators and reporters were also surprised to find out that Chang Sheng had sent all the main players in the league.
"It seems that he is often going to give up the Champions League...... He's going to make sure he's dominating the league. Perhaps he knows very well that after the end of this season, this team will no longer have zĂ i...... So this is his only chance. League Champion Three times in a row! â
Lazio, who sent all their main players, faced their defeated Inter Milan at home - just by looking at this sentence, in fact, everyone can already know the result.
"Falcao...... Falcao !! 'Tiger' roars! "Amid the shouts of the commentators, Falcao ran with open arms to celebrate the goal, and Lazio led Inter Milan 1-0 at home!" It was his twenty-eighth league goal. Two goals away from 30 goals! Will he be the second player in half a century to break 30 goals?! â
After Lazio took a one-goal lead, Inter relied on Cambiaso's long-range strike to equalise.
It was a goal that cheered up Inter fans for a while.
In a world where the race for the league title is getting tougher, every point counts.
Inter Milan, who seem to have been cornered, have also exploded with great potential!
In the first half, the two sides played to a 1:1 draw.
At half-time, Chang Win criticised the team's insurance because he felt the players were not putting enough pressure on the opposition.
"They were able to compete with us in midfield! This is not normal! â
â»â»â»
In the second half, Lazio strengthened their pace change on the basis of possession.
Inter Milan will have a lot more trouble coping with it.
In the 53rd and 60th minutes, Lazio scored two goals in a row.
Karim Benzema scored twice in the game!
"Karim. Benzema! A super shooter who doesn't lose to Falcao! As a young man, he was dubbed 'Ronaldo Second' by the media! He proved that the media were not wrong! â
In addition to Falcao's ironclad departure from the team this summer, Benzema is also the focus of European giants...... Maybe next season, we won't be able to see this pair of strikers in Lazio that will make the whole Apennine Peninsula tremble! â
â»â»â»
Although Inter pulled another goal back in the 80th minute, it was to no avail.
Lazio put their possession of the ball to good use in the final ten minutes. In those ten minutes, Inter did not even have a few attacking chances.
When the referee blew the end of the match, the Lazio fans at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome burst into loud cheers.
The Inter players, on the other hand, hung their heads and looked very frustrated.
Eight points!
Lazio are eight points ahead of Inter Milan in the league!
This point difference has basically declared Inter Milan's failure to attack the league title again.
Mancini stood on the sidelines, motionless, no one knowing whose eyes ended up on him or what he was thinking.
Maybe he was thinking that if there was no Chang, without this Lazio team, the team that won the league three times in a row should be him, right?
Lazio's players celebrated on the pitch and they had already seen the trophy!
The league triple title is about to be achieved!
They started a dynasty!
â»â»â»
In his post-match press conference, Mancini made a somewhat surprising but reasonable decision.
"Even though I have four years left on my contract with the club, I have decided to leave the club at the end of the season. In my opinion, it's time to leave...... I'm proud of my work on this team, but I would say the next month and a half will be my last month and a half with this team. Thank you for your support, but there is no banquet in the world......"
He said this with a very tired appearance, and his voice was low and weak.
It can be seen that the entanglement with Chang Sheng for two consecutive seasons has exhausted all his energy and put him under tremendous pressure.
He couldn't support it anymore.
Subsequently, his remarks caused an uproar in the Italian media.
"If I were Moratti, I'd let that coward fuck off now! The league is not over yet, Lazio is only eight points ahead of Inter Milan! There are seven rounds left in the league, so why give up? Even if there is only one chance, Inter should give it their all and never give up until the last minute! This is tantamount to an early surrender! As the head coach of the team, he wants his players to think of him? Is it such a coward who leads us? This is a serious blow to the morale of the team! â
On one TV show, an Inter Milan supporter guest lashed out at Mancini in front of the camera.
Mancini made a declaration of unconditional surrender after tonight's game. At the height of the competition for the league title, he clearly surrendered early, believing that Inter Milan would no longer be able to win the league title......" said Mancini, who also commented on the TV news.
The newspapers used such a headline to ridicule Mancini.
"Mancho has surrendered!"
The newspaper published a cartoon in which Mancini was bare-bottomed and holding up a pair of white panties, while Chang Sheng in front of him was with his hands on his chest, his head held high, and his face was swaggering. The soccer ball under his feet is printed with Inter's benchmark.
This cartoon is really humiliating for Inter......
And who made Inter Milan suffer such humiliation?
It's Mancini!
