Chapter 235 Before the Winter Break (4)

I would like to ask for recommendation votes at the beginning, and I would like to thank all readers for their rewards and evaluation votes...

Before the 15th round of the game begins, let's take a look at the current ranking of the Serie A standings.

Sampdoria, who had undergone a major change in the summer, has performed very well recently. After a long period of pain, they have scored nine points in the last four rounds of the league, second only to Fiorentina, which has won all four games. Among them, the Aquariums even defeated Juventus, who has three former Sampdorian players including Viali, Lombardo, and Yugovic, 2-0! Sampdoria is currently ranked seventh in the standings with 20, and behind them is Inter Milan, who suffered a three-game losing streak after experiencing the coach change.

Also performing poorly is the Blue Eagles Lazio. The team under the Czechs performed extremely weakly recently. They lost to Vicenza, AC Milan and Parma one after another, and only won Sampdoria in a goal battle in the 14th round. Such a poor performance made the Blue Camp's points ranking fall to the league tied for fourth place. The same points as them are the Zebra Legion coached by Silver Fox Lippi, who also got twenty-two points.

Roma's performance has steadily improved under the guidance of the old coach Mazoni. He ranked sixth in the league with five wins, six draws and three losses, and ranked sixth in the league with 21 points. After all, Old Sensi does not have the capital to challenge the three northern top three. He is still planning how to make Roma's club listed on the stock exchange to obtain more liquidity.

Although Parma ranks third in the league, the total score difference from the top is enough to make them give up their coveting of the league championship this season. Although only half of the Serie A has passed. During a small gathering, Zhuang Mingge listened to Francesca Tanji inadvertently mentioning that Lao Tanji, the leader of Parma, seems to be dissatisfied with the team's meritorious coach Scala's performance this season, and believes that the coach no longer has the ability to continue to lead Parma to further lead. Moreover, according to Francesca, Lao Tanji seems to be optimistic about a former Italian national team main player, who plans to terminate his work contract with Scala as soon as the season ends.

As a time traveler, Zhuang Mingge naturally knew that he had never played Ancelotti, but now 36-year-old Fatty An is just a head coach who led the B-level team Regina to the A-level League. From the experience and personal qualifications of leading the team, these players in Fiorentina cannot convince them.

Florence, which has achieved 11 wins, one draw and two losses in the 14 league games, is naturally well deserved to be ranked first in the standings. The Ross and Blacks under the second place are still the Ross and Blacks under the control of Berlusconi, but the gap between them and Florence, which is now not a point a month ago, but has widened to a full five points! This means that even if Fiorentina accidentally misses in this game with AC Milan, it will not shake the footsteps of Purple Lily winning the honor of "Winter Championship".

Under this situation, Florence ushered in its last official match of the year when Christmas is only two days away.

The current AC Milan is much stronger than the same period in history. After all, Baggio, whom Zhuang Mingge was "robbed" from Juventus in advance. At the same time, the team's performance in last season also proved that Milan has now reached a period of reconstruction of the old and new. Therefore, Berlusconi, who is still enthusiastic enough to invest in football, first got Cruyvit and Rezig from Ajax with a high salary and the title of "Three Dutch Musketeers", and then used a lot of money to smash Liberian striker George Via from Paris Saint-Germain. In addition to the original Marco Simeone, the Milanese have created a strong forward line that is not inferior to Fiorentina.

Moreover, under the policy of gold medal coach Capello's "carrot and stick", Cruyvert did not show too much freedom and casual style this year, but honestly trained and played under the guidance of this famous coach, so his cooperation with Via became more and more perfect. At the same time, the team did not have Baggio, which Capello did not like, and reduced unnecessary internal friction, which also made the atmosphere of Milan's team much better.

In terms of midfield, Savicevic, Boban and Albertini are all master-level figures. Frenchman Deselli provides defense and hardness for AC Milan's midfield. Although Donadoni is 32 years old, his style on the wing is still unabated. It can be said that the midfield of the Ross and Blacks is not inferior to that of Fiorentina.

The biggest weakness of AC Milan is its once proud golden defense line. Since last season, Milan's back line has experienced serious aging. The full-back is okay. Although Tasotti is already old, both Maldini on the left, Panucci on the right and Rezig on the right are guaranteed by Milan's full-back in the next five years. The key lies in Milan's central defender. The 29-year-old Costakuta's competitive state began to decline sharply after the World Cup. Continuous low-level mistakes make it difficult to make him and the one he had with the "iron rubber"

The central defender with the title of "Balic" is connected together; the old captain Baresci is 35 years old, and even his substitute Philip Galli is 34 years old. It is an indisputable fact that their competitive state declines at such an age; therefore, for AC Milan today, the defense has become their biggest weakness. After all, there are many excellent attackers born in football every year than defensive players, and outstanding central defenders are rare. All strong teams regard their own decisive needles as treasures and non-sale products. No matter how generous Berlusconi is, he cannot change this fact.

...

"Did everyone remember my arrangement?" Ranieri asked with a serious face in the Florence locker room on December 23.

"We have all kept it in mind, boss, don't worry!" Effenberg spoke, and he replied seriously, "After all, two days after this game is Christmas, and none of us hope to spend this holiday with a defeat, don't you?"

"That's right!" ×N

Ranieri saw that the players were so energetic, and he felt a little nervous. He was really afraid that the players would be inattentive during the game because they were rushing to go home for Christmas. Now it seems that the professional qualities of these players on the team are enough to make them fulfill their requirements seriously.

"Everyone has noticed. Our boss told me that if this game can be won..." The pot maker thought about it and threw out another bomb to boost the morale of the players. "He will give each first-team player a considerable Christmas gift on Christmas Day~"
