Milan once reached the finals in three consecutive seasons in 92-93, 93-94, 94-95, but they only won the championship once!

Ajax once reached the finals for two consecutive seasons in the 94-95, 95-96 seasons, and only won once!

Juventus once reached the finals in three seasons 95-96, 96-97, 97-98, and only won the championship once!

Valencia once reached the finals in 99-00,00-01 seasons, and never won a championship!

Manchester United once reached the finals in 2007-08, 08-09 and won only once!

Bayern Munich once reached the finals in 11-12, 12-13, and only won the championship once!

This is the most likely season to break through the defensive curse since the reform of the Champions League, but no team has ever succeeded. With the flood of capital into the football world, everyone can feel that it is very difficult for a team to reach the finals for two consecutive seasons, let alone defend the title.

Wensheng has set his goal in defending the Champions League. I have to say that this is actually a very difficult goal!

But having a goal is the motivation. With this motivation, Wensheng believes that the team is still very likely.

This season is definitely more difficult than last season. According to original memory, Wen Sheng knew that this season includes Bayern Munich, Barcelona, ​​and Real Madrid, which are not easy to deal with. Manchester City can be said to be one of the top European teams, but there are too many people who need to be distracted in the league.

"It seems that everyone's performance is very good today!" Because Wensheng set the goal and inspired the players' fighting spirit, the training seemed to have improved a lot this day. Brian joked: "These guys are all donkeys, and there is a carrot in front of them!"

"Who is not like this?! I am the same! Without a goal, I can't lead the team well! Brian, don't be too optimistic! Who can know whether these guys are really serious or fake?! After today, how much popularity can keep?!" Wensheng still has some hidden worries. Manchester City has not been tested much in the Champions League this season, and the opponents in the same group are much weaker. In the Champions League draw in December, Manchester City continued good luck. They drew the Swiss powerhouse Basel, called the powerhouse, which is nothing more than in Switzerland. In the Champions League, Basel is not much better than the bottom in the Champions League.

"From the group stage to the top 16, our opponents are not strong! On the good side, we won the first place in the group with almost no effort, which is very conducive to our testing of tactical formations, but on the bad side, we have not been tested by strong teams. If Basel is eliminated, we may suffer a big loss when we meet Bayern Munich and other teams!" Wen Sheng analyzed with a contempt.

"Oh!" Brian Kidd was amused and crying, "Why did I feel that meeting a few bottom teams in the group stage is not a good thing! If you really hit the death group, you will complain again!"

OK, the general idea is that you are really hard to serve!

"Do you know why we were able to win the championship last season?" Wensheng asked Brian.

"I won't say it, you know everything I say! Just tell me the reasons I don't know!" Brian said with a wry smile.

"Because of the momentum! Last season, we were assigned to the death group and encountered strong enemies in the knockout stage. It is precisely because of them that we are both difficult and happy step by step that we have formed our own momentum. By the finals, this momentum has become, and no one can stop us from winning the championship! Bryan, having strong enemies in the group stage is also a kind of tempering, which is a tempering for our minds!" This is fucking metaphysics. Holding another tail in your hand will almost become a metaphysicist.

I have been with Wensheng for so long, and there is still a tacit understanding. Brian didn't have much effort to listen to Wensheng's mysterious talk. He knew Wensheng was worried. He comforted Wensheng and said: "Do it well in details, and leave everything to God! Didn't you say that there will always be rewards for your efforts?! We have paid no less this season than last season. I think we will have a good result! I believe we can achieve our goals!"

Wen Sheng shook his head and said nothing more. He had previously dug Suarez and broke up the Barcelona trident, but who knew that Aguero went to Barcelona, ​​their trident was also very powerful. The only thing worth Wen Sheng was happy was that Aguero played for many years at Manchester City, and the team was so familiar with him. Maybe Aguero could make him silent when they met.

......

With twenty minutes left before the pre-match press conference, the media news hall of the Etihad Training Base has gathered many media reporters.

Like other reporters, Martin Blackburn prepared the issues he wanted to mention early. At this time, before Wensheng arrived, the reporters began to discuss and exchange everything about football in groups.

"This season, it seems that Manchester City has been lucky! From the group stage to the quarterfinals, it seems that they will be smooth sailing!" Martin Blackburn's view was agreed by his colleagues around him.

"I heard that Daniel is not a devout believer. It is said that he never goes to church. Can he get God's blessing in this way?!" Simon Stone joked.

As a great time traveler, Wensheng is not a staunch atheist, but he really rarely goes to church, so it is rumored that he is not religious.

"Ha, it's not God bless him, it's UEFA's change of temperament!" Another reporter said with a laugh.

Everyone laughed, and this statement was more accepted by everyone. This group of reporters in England believed in conspiracy theories the most. They believed that UEFA was targeting Premier League teams and had always been unfriendly to Premier League teams, especially rich teams. Chelsea was previously believed to have encountered special targets from UEFA, and now Manchester City is the same.

"Well, this is a good time! Let's see if Manchester City can become the first defending team after the restructuring this season!" said Martin Blackburn.

"Defend the title?! It's too difficult! Sir Ferguson failed to accomplish such a feat!" Some people are optimistic about Manchester City, but naturally some are not optimistic about it. "Juventus was so powerful back then, and he only won one championship in the end!"
