Chapter 253 New target

"Since that bastard Saki looks down on us Fiorentina so much, let us win all the championships! Let's see what excuses he can find when announcing the European Cup roster!" The person who shouted this sentence was not a local player in the Fiorentina team, but the team's deputy captain, Effenberg, the German. "As long as we win all the championships we can win, even if that old bastard Saki really didn't choose the players from Fiorentina to participate in the European Cup, fans and media will stand by us to criticize Saki's stubborn style!"

It seems that Sachi's unfair treatment of Fiorentina made the "tiger" who left the German national team forever because of the "China Finger Facts Incident" empathize with the "tiger" of the German national team who left Fogtz forever. So after the game with Cagliari, the German made the above remarks in the locker room.

When other players heard Effenberg say this, they also felt that what their deputy captain said was very reasonable. Although Fiorentina is fighting on the third line, the team has already achieved an eight-point lead in the Serie A. If these advantages are used well, it will not be a problem to win the league championship at the end of the season. It has also reached the quarter-finals in the Champions League. According to the official lottery rules of this season announced by UEFA, Fiorentina, who won the first place in Group C, will play against any of the other three teams.

Although there are no weak teams in the Champions League, considering the huge impact on European football after the emergence of the Boseman Act last summer, especially those small and medium-sized balls with insufficient financial resources will not have much resistance in front of the check sheet, so in the Champions League group stage this season, the differentiation of strength and weakness has begun to gradually emerge. In addition to the largest dark horse from Poland, the largest dark horse in the Champions League this season, there is a hint of grassroots flavor, the remaining seven teams, even Dortmund and Panasinakos, are also powerful in Germany and Greece, and they will not worry about economic issues at all.

If Legia is drawn, of course it will be a top draw. Although Panasinacos is the dominant country in Greece, it is just a second-rate team in the Champions League, which is not worth worrying.

Of course, Dortmund is the opponent that Fiorentina least wants to draw, but the performance of the Bundesliga team in the European arena has been poor in the past two years, while the Italian team has always been the overlord in the European arena. In addition, in the European Cup last season, Fiorentina easily eliminated another German powerhouse Werder Bremen, so even if Fiorentina is really unlucky to draw Dortmund, the strongest among the four groups, the players will not feel that their opponents are so scary.

Not to mention the Copa Italy, a group of teams that have been tortured by Fiorentina in the league will not change their destiny even if they change to another battlefield.

Huh? Think about it carefully. If we really follow what the vice captain said, we seem to have a hope of winning the triple crown this year. After thinking about this, many Fiorentine players have reacted. If everything goes well, maybe this seemingly unrealistic delusion may really come true.

When the Fiorentine players thought of this, they were all moved by the big pie drawn by Effenberg's words. They shouted excitedly in the locker room, as if they were cheering themselves up, and as if they were preparing to really follow the big pie drawn by the Germans, they tried to win the first triple crown in Italian football history.

The first triple-winning champion in Italian football history, when Zhuang Mingge was visiting Batistuta's home and heard Effenberg, who also ran to Bati's home to eat, mentioned this, and was forced to be mined by the Germans' rich imagination: You are too brave to think about it, right?!

The fantastic honor of the Triple Crown is naturally something that any player dreams of, but now it is not the time when Zhuang Mingge travels through time. The teams that won the Triple Crown are like mushrooms after a rain and one team will be coming out every year.

Before 1996, there were only three teams that won the Champions League in the same year, including the Glasgow Celtics in 1967, Ajax in 1970, and Eindhoven in 1988.

Some people may find that the three teams that have won the Triple Crown are all teams outside the four major leagues. The reason for this is actually very simple. Before the Boseman Act, the gap between the giant teams in various countries was actually very small. Otherwise, there would be no situation where Real Madrid in the Five Eagles era and Barcelona in the Dream Team era repeatedly failed in the Champions League. What affects the level of the entire league is more the overall strength of the mid- and lower-level teams in the league. In this regard, Scotland and the Netherlands teams have a lot of advantages over the teams in the four major leagues. After all, the small-national league often takes turns to take over the banker, and winning a double championship with a league championship and a cup championship is common. When the character explodes, the triple crown will come naturally.

The teams in the four major leagues are different. Because the competition within the league is more intense, there are relatively few teams that win the double championship in the domestic league cup, so the probability of the triple-championship is not as good as that in the next-level leagues. This situation continues until the emergence of the Boseman Act.

After the Boseman era came, restrictions on foreign players in the EU no longer existed, the gap between the rich and the poor between clubs began to widen, poor teams could not retain good players, and the lineup thickness of the giants in major leagues began to increase exponentially. Such changes greatly increased the probability of the triple crown in the four major leagues.

Starting from Manchester United winning the triple-champion in 1999, Barcelona in 2009, Inter Milan in 2009, Bayern in 2013, all the teams that won the triple-champion after the Boseman Act were all from the four major leagues, which also reflects from one aspect how far the strength gap between the teams has reached.

Although the Boseman Act has been implemented for half a year and excellent star resources have also tended to be concentrated in giants and high-level leagues, it is fashionable and short, and it is still very difficult to get the triple crown and other things.

Effenberg's speech fooled those young people, but it would not be fooled by Zhuang Mingge: It would be fine if he won the triple crown, but if he accidentally became the king of Sanya like Leverkusen in 2002, it would be a lot of fun...

"Haha, boss, there is no need to stare at me so seriously. I just wanted to cheer up the boys who were rejected by the national team..." Effenberg was a little guilty when he was stared at Zhuang Mingge, and he quickly tried to get away with it.

"How about this, Stefan." Zhuang Mingge suddenly had an idea, "Since you, as the vice captain of the team, have put forward the grand goal of the Triple Crown, as the chairman of the Fiorentine Club, of course, I have to support the team with all my strength. This way, if the team defends the league championship this year, I will pay an additional $2 million in prize money; if you win the Champions League championship, the bonus will be added to 3 million; if you win the Triple Crown this year..."

When Zhuang Mingge said this, he deliberately paused and said, "The total amount of additional bonus is 8 million... Of course, if the team has no championship in the end, the bonus of these millions will be deducted from your salary."

"No problem! Boss, please prepare to see our wonderful performance..." Effenberg, who was cheering for his boss' generous actions, obviously did not hear the last sentence.

Until Barty helplessly dragged the tiger into the corner and repeated the conversation just now, Effenberg, who had always been fearless, was stunned:
Chapter completed!
