He was able to win the World Cup Golden Ball Award, but he became a parallel player at Manchester United and Inter Milan, and his genius was limited by his style of play.

At the request of my friends, let’s talk about Diego Fran, the Uruguayan genius attacker who is limited by his play style.

On May 19, 1979, Diego Fran was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. The family he lives in is a typical football family. His father and grandfather were both selected for the Uruguay national team. This directly led to Fran, who was a child, suffered considerable psychological pressure when playing football. On the contrary, on the tennis court, Fran was able to do whatever he wanted and once planned to become a professional tennis player. The turning point of

's fate occurred in 1991. Fran's sister suffered a serious car accident and required huge medical expenses, which was very difficult for their family to bear. Although Fran was only 12 years old at this time, he already understood the importance of making money. So he decided to play football instead, become a top star, and invite the world's best doctor for his sister.

starts a little late, and you will obviously suffer a loss. Many of Fran's skills have not reached the level of perfection. For example, his skills under his feet are obviously not as good as those masters of technical flow. For example, his shooting accuracy in the penalty area is not comparable to those of Fanny and other colleagues.

Fortunately, Fran has a relatively comprehensive development and is not a skeleton student who specializes in a certain subject. He is a typical all-round attacker who can not only grab points in the penalty area, but also shoot long shots outside the penalty area, and also organize attacks.

No matter which era, all-round attackers have a market. When Fran was 16 years old, he received an invitation to try out from Nancy Club, but unfortunately he failed in the end. Not long after, he came to the Argentine League and became a member of the independent team. He performed quite well and attracted the attention of many European clubs.

During the winter window of the 2001-02 season, Fran flew to England to negotiate with Middlesbrough. At that time, even the players themselves probably didn't expect that his original intention was just to join a mid- and lower-level Premier League club like Middlesbrough, but he was intercepted by a championship team like Manchester United.

Fran's performance was terrible after joining Manchester United. He played as a striker and wasted a lot of goals in the penalty area. In the second half of the 2001-02 season, the all-round attacker's goal data at Manchester United was actually a pitiful 0 goals. It was not until September 2009 that Fran broke his goal drought at Manchester United with a penalty kick. However, the penalty didn't make Fran lucky. After this, his performance was slightly better, but he still failed to meet Manchester United's requirements.

Players will naturally be criticized if they perform poorly. After Fran joined Manchester United, the media and fans criticized him never stopped. Comments about "parallel goods", "stupids", and even "worst signings in the century" are one after another.

Fran, who became a parallel at Manchester United, switched to Villarreal in the summer of 2004. No one would have thought that this Manchester United forward won 25 league goals in his first season in La Liga, beating Etoo to become the best scorer in La Liga. In addition, he also shared the glory of the European Golden Boot with Henry.

However, Fran's shot is really a problem. This directly led to his goal efficiency fluctuations. In the 2005-06 season, the all-round attacker's league goals dropped to 10. The 2006-07 season improved, and it increased to 19 pills. In the summer of 2007, Fran changed his home and went to Atletico Madrid to play. Atletico Madrid at this stage, they do not have the ability to compete for the championship at all. After joining Fran quickly became a key player of the team, and he opened fire on the offensive line. He scored the best goals in the 2008-09 season, scoring 32 league goals, with an average of almost 1 goal per game, and once again won the La Liga Golden Boots and the European Golden Boot Awards.

With his outstanding performance during his time at the club, Fran has a high status in the Uruguay national team and is undoubtedly the core of the offensive. Suarez and Cavani, who were not at their peak, both had to help Fran.

In the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Fran was in a state of great success and scored 5 goals. Under his leadership, Uruguay unexpectedly broke into the semi-finals. After the event, Fran deserved the World Cup Golden Globe Award.

What is quite interesting is that Fran scored most of the five goals during the World Cup were long shots. The goals he scored against Ghana and the Netherlands were all the long-distance world waves that were highly ornamental but difficult to replicate. After the successful World Cup trip, Fran's competitive state declined significantly. In the next 2010-11 season, Fran, wearing Atletico Madrid's jersey, only paid a data sheet of 8 goals in 32 league games. There is also the 2011 Copa America, and Fran scored no goals in both the group stage, the quarter-finals and the semi-finals. Fortunately, he scored twice in the final, covering up all the problems.

In the summer of 2011, Fran bid farewell to Atletico Madrid and transferred to Inter Milan. Inter Milan at that time, although it had already begun to decline, it still had many star players. After Fran joined Inter Milan, he became a parallel stock again. After 18 league games, only 2 goals were recorded, which was disappointing.

Not long after, Fran waved goodbye to Meacha and went to Brazil International to retire. In the days that followed, he left his footprints in the Brazilian League, the Japanese League, the Uruguay League and the Indian League, and he played until 2019 that he officially announced his retirement.

Looking at Fran's career, he is definitely a successful player. The 2010 World Cup Golden Globe Awards alone can make him famous in history. However, this does not mean that Fran is an impeccable existence. On the contrary, this all-round attacker has always been limited by the style of play and is destined to be unsuitable for the grand goal.. As for this player, he is not very sure in front of the goal, and he wastes some easier goals from time to time. This directly leads to his unstable goal efficiency. Even in his heyday, Villarreal's entire team was attacking him, and he also paid the answer to 10 goals in 32 league games in a single season. This kind of goal efficiency is unimaginable for top strikers at their peak, such as Fanny and Vieri. For wealthy families, that is unacceptable.

In addition, as a forward, Fran shot too often from a long shot outside the penalty area. It is difficult for those giants who emphasize tactics to accept their forwards playing like this. That is, teams such as Villarreal and Atletico Madrid that were not enough to compete for the championship at the time could accept their core players playing like this.

To sum up, it is not surprising that Fran has become a parallel player in Manchester United and Inter Milan.
