The Ball at Your Feet

: 307 Top 4 Opponents

After returning to Monaco, what Monaco has to face is Chelsea.

Chelsea’s head coach Ranieri just issued a declaration a few days ago, stating that even if he wins the Champions League, he will not stay at Chelsea to teach-this is a declaration that does not work very well. What Mr. Abu said to him , The response was not to stay, nor to refute the rumors to contact the new coach. It was just a faint expression on behalf of the club: thanks to coach Ranieri for his work...

This makes Ranieri a little bit unable to come to the stage now. He didn't expect that Abramovich would be so unrelenting. At any rate, he led the team to second in the league and the Champions League semi-finals. Not to mention a team like Chelsea, it is reasonable to put it in any giants. However, what he has won is actually Just a word of thanks!

Such an attitude makes him really unimaginable.

He couldn't understand Abu's mentality. When this man manages the football team, he is also close to Florentino, using a purely commercial management method. It's just that Florentino is a real estate player. His habit is to hype, publicize, and profit for himself by packaging and marketing. On the other hand, Abu sells oil. His company is more formal, so the management method is simpler: I will not embarrass you with money. I can give you as much money as you want. But don’t make excuses on your grades. If you don’t meet the standards I want, I don’t care how close you are to your goal, just get out.

This year Abramovich proposed the league championship. Whatever the second result, whether it beat Manchester United, Arsenal's unbeaten record, or too strong, Abbott does not care-no championship, please leave.

Ranieri is incomprehensible with such an attitude. All he knew was that he was abandoned by Abu. Therefore, he is now playing in the Champions League and only a bit of hostility is left.

In this round of competition, Monaco is also studying its opponents.

As far as the schedule is concerned, it is quite detrimental to Monaco. How can it not be considered good for a game that starts first and then goes away.

But in terms of the state of the two teams, Monaco is better. Because Ranieri has broken up with Abramovich and he is facing an opponent like Arsenal who is not losing, he doesn't care about the league anymore. In the past ten days, they played three league rounds, and the result of the game was two draws and one loss and only scored two points. In these ten days, Monaco did not play a game. They rested wholeheartedly for ten days and were ready to play against Chelsea.

In terms of player ability, Chelsea is slightly stronger. After all, they are rich, and the players will naturally be much better.

On the front line, they have excellent forwards like Crespo, Goodjohnsen, Hasselbaink and Mutu. In the midfield, they have Duff, Makelele, Glenshire, Lampard, Parker, Joe Cole and others. On the back line, they have Terry, Bridge, Gala and others, all three lines are extremely strong.

In fact, Ranieri's own thinking is not at all wrong: they are a league second, Champions League semi-final team. This is especially true for a team that has never produced any results. The last league championship was won fifty years ago. This is especially true for a team that has never made any achievements in the Champions League. But by the way, what he met was the impatient Abu.

In the face of a team with world-class players in these three sets of lines, and a team that is extremely strong and has an extremely thick lineup, Monaco can be said to be even worse.

At this time, Jiuli's injuries were basically healed, but Deschamps still rejected his idea of ​​playing. After all, more rest is also good.

"Don't worry about Chelsea, their strength is very average." Deschamps didn't care about Chelsea. "Their last championship was obtained when I played with them. The money problem is easy to solve, but You don’t have money to have everything in the game."

"But, it seems that their defense is very good." Zhao Yaning asked the question. "Not all British media said that they have Makelele, are they the best defensive team in Europe?"

These words made Deschamps sneered, "Makelele dared to claim to be a good midfielder. The talents are really withered these years... When I was in the national team, when did the French team have his position in the French team? "

This sentence stopped talking in the dressing room of Monaco.

"Makelele and Vieira played in the UK and they were blown up by the British media too much." Deschamps explained patiently. "Think about the two-game suspension of Zizou in 1998. Pettit and I still Didn’t they lead the team to the finals the same way? In 2002, what kind of virtue did they play? Our striker at that time could not be compared with them. If the two of them are really such good midfielders, how could they come out here Kind of problem?"

Deschamps naturally has the right to speak on this issue. “Makelele’s ability to support the frontcourt is always a problem. He is unable to launch a long pass and directly launch a counterattack. Passing will only split the side and return. According to the legend, Florentino is not wrong to him. With him on the field, Real Madrid's rhythm is affected. Not to mention Vieira, he is not playing as a midfielder, but is playing wild. It’s not the same as those of us."

"But Makelele's defensive ability..."

"Position selection is OK, one-on-one ability is good, but it is not without flaws." Deschamps replied, "After all, he is short and not strong enough to hold people. Defensive by small moves, although it is hard work to make up for the clumsiness. However, in terms of playing style, after all, it’s not as confident as a strong body."

"Don't trust the media too much." Morientes also laughed. "When Redondo left, Makelele and Concicao were signed by the media, and our Celades were signed by the media. I think that three people together are not as good as a Redondo. But now he is gone, Real Madrid has a problem, he has become a god... Don’t think he is amazing just because of his high value and Real Madrid’s loss to us. Real Madrid It was a signing error. If it were not for the stupid chairman, we followed our plan, and if the buyer was not Beckham but Vieira, Real Madrid would only be stronger."

Although Makelele is about to be blown up by the British media now, in the eyes of those who know him, he is really not a real top midfielder. There is no offensive ability at all. Although ground interception is good, there is no good way to fight against a really strong opponent. Of course, it is prudent to take the ball out, but it's all about splitting and passing back, and there is no organization of offense at all. Such a defensive midfielder's appearance basically restricts the team's quick counterattack. This is a distinctive midfielder, but not the top. If under a good coach, his weakness is covered up, maybe he can still play well. But now Chelsea is obviously not that kind of team.

"Chelsea still have a lot of problems. Don't look at them spending 120 million, we only spent 10 million, but we don’t necessarily lose the wind when we play with them~www.wuxiaspot.com~Deschamps said This is being adjusted on the tactical board, "Chelsea's defense also has a big problem. Not talking about ground interception, but about their high ball defense. Their defenders use parallel stance to defend the ball, relying solely on the ability of the defenders to defend. This may be an opportunity for us. "

Deschamps made a judgment, "In this game we played double midfielders, Toure and Zicos started. Pulsau and Morientes played together in the front. We gave them some surprises in this game."

--------------------------------------

On April 21st, the Champions League semi-finals finally began.

In the last game against Everton, Chelsea chose a large rotation and rested the main players. In this game, they sent the strongest lineup. Goalkeeper Cudicini, one of the top goalkeepers in the Premier League and one of the contenders for the Golden Glove Award.

At the back line are Bridge, Terry, Desailly and Gala. The national level defenders of Britain and France have always been trustworthy in strength.

While the midfield is full, they sent Makelele as the midfielder, with Veron and Parker in front, Lampard as the midfielder in front, and Crespo and Good Johnson as the double forward. Except for the injured Duff, they are on the strongest lineup.

Although this lineup is strong, it is almost as expected. Chelsea are all the best, but they are looking for a win. But in contrast, Monaco's changes are somewhat interesting.

Double defensive midfielders, double guards, double high center forwards, this style of play is refreshing.

"Deschamps made adjustments to the lineup. The injured Jiuli did not enter the starting lineup, and the midfielder drew a midfielder to play this game with a high center forward. Such a change will make Monaco. Is it stronger? Let's wait and see."
