Of course, even if Chelsea wants to be high-profile, they are not qualified to be high-profile. Chelsea is a second-rate team in Europe. If we look at history, even third-rate teams cannot beat it. It should be said that although Chelsea has performed well in British football in the past few seasons,
Even in English football, it is a second-rate team.
Leave England and show up in Europe with no fans at all.
If teams like Real Madrid and Milan came to Monaco, I believe there would be many fans.
Because although they are also a foreign team, they have a great influence in European football and have a lot of fans. There are many popular football superstars in their team.
When Chelsea went to Monaco, Monaco was quiet. There were no cheers from fans and no crowds from reporters.
No Monaco fans came at all.
The fans here in Monaco must all have the same idea?
Chelsea?
who?
What for?
When Chelsea got off the plane, the scene was deserted. Only one person came to pick Chelsea up.
"Didier, some days are missing."
It was Deschamps who came to greet Chelsea.
Deschamps has officially retired at the beginning of this season and started working as the head coach of Monaco.
This is the benefit of famous players being coaches.
A player as successful and influential in French football as Deschamps can become a head coach in the First Division just after retiring. There are many such players.
The same situation applies to Ruud Gullit and Vialli in the history of Chelsea Club. They can easily turn into coaches using the fame they accumulated during their playing days.
"Su. Welcome to beautiful Monaco."
Deschamps said hello to the other players, and then chatted with Su Yun.
"It's okay. Just coming here as a UEFA Cup champion. I feel a little short."
Su Yun and Deschamps have a good relationship.
In the Chelsea team, only Deschamps joked freely with Su Yun. In the Chelsea team last season, there were two figures beside Su Yun who were almost inseparable.
One is Chelsea assistant coach Clark, and the other is Deschamps.
"Haha, Su. Next time you come to Monaco as a Champions League champion. Then I will hold a celebration ceremony for you here."
Su Yun nodded.
"By the way, Didier. Being a coach is not as simple as you think."
Su Yun looked at Deshang and said.
"yes."
Deschamps sighed, but soon returned to his normal state: "I used to think that being a head coach was not a big problem. You see you are so young and you have already won so many championships. But only after I became a head coach did I realize that being a head coach
It’s really not that easy.”
Deschamps' start in Monaco was not very good.
The French Ligue 1 has already started at the end of July. Deschamps has led Monaco to play four rounds of league games. However, the results are very unsatisfactory, with only two draws and two losses.
Ranking very low in the current Ligue 1 league.
"Didier, it doesn't have to be like this. I was much worse than you when I first started as a head coach."
Su Yun did not continue to comfort Deshang. Because the Deshang that Su Yun knew was a person with a strong enough heart, even too strong, that Su Yun admired him very much.
Don't say that he just encountered some problems now, even if he fails once, he will be fine.
"I'm fine. But Su, you have to face Bayern this time? Are you feeling a little nervous?"
Deschamps asked with a smile.
Su Yun shook his head.
"Bayern, this is the final glory. You don't even look at how old their players are."
"hehe."
Deschamps just smiled.
Although he has been with Su Yun for a season, Deshang still understands Su Yun's face-conscious character. No matter what he is facing, Su Yun will always be tough-talking.
Facing Bayern, Deschamps believed that Su Yun must have endured many days.
If there is no pressure when facing Bayern, it is definitely not Su Yun's character.
But Deschamps knew that Su Yun would never admit that he was under pressure from Bayern.
The two were chatting and laughing on the bus.
Because Chelsea arrived early, Chelsea's training was held at the Monaco Club's training ground. They also took time to adapt to the Stade Louis II every day.
Occasionally Chelsea will play some games with Monaco.
At this time, the benefits of having acquaintances come out.
Because Deschamps is the head coach of Monaco, everything can be done easily.
"Didier, you have a lot of good players in Monaco."
After some training matches with Monaco, Su Yun took a closer look at Monaco's lineup.
The strength is okay.
There are a few players in particular who are very strong.
"Why are you interested?"
"Yeah. I'm very interested. Look at your No. 9 player. He's tall and has a big advantage in the air. He also has good foot skills. I think he will perform very well in England."
"Dado is good, but it's a pity that he hasn't fully exerted his power yet."
Deschamps nodded.
What Su Yun and Deschamps are talking about is Monaco's No. 9 player Dado Pursaud. He is a big man of 1.90 meters. He is good at heading the ball and even has excellent skills at his feet.
It should be very suitable for English football.
Of course, besides Pu Shao, Su Yun also had his eye on someone else.
Winger Giuli.
This is different from Pulsaud. On the contrary, he is very short, less than 1.7 meters. But he is fast, passes the ball well, and even shoots well. Facing Zola's breakthrough, even Chelsea's back line defense is difficult.
I never thought that little Monaco is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
But think about it.
Thuram, Henry, Trezeguet, Sagnol and Barthez, who are now all-powerful in European football, all came from Monaco. Monaco has always been rich in good players.
…………
While Chelsea was preparing for the game in a low-key manner, last season's European king Bayern also came to Monaco.
The tone is completely different.
When Chelsea came to Monaco, there were not many people at all. There were not even a few reporters. The few reporters who followed Chelsea were all reporters from England.
A French star like Deschamps came to take over Chelsea purely because he had played for Chelsea for two seasons.
But when Bayern Munich came to Monaco, the momentum was completely different.
A wealthy family is a wealthy family.
Bayern's lineup is filled with superstars, all of whom are well-known in European football.
Not only that, there are two French players in Bayern's current lineup.
Sagnol and Lizarazu.
Although Monaco is not a French city, but a duchy. However, they are deeply influenced by France and fully support the French national team.
Sagnol is still a star who came out of Monaco.
So when Bayern came to Monaco, many local Monaco fans came to support Bayern. Needless to say the media.
When Bayern went to Monaco, many European media followed.
It's a completely different treatment than Chelsea.
A reporter asked Heathfield: Are you familiar with Chelsea? Is there any arrangement for Xing? Faced with the reporter's question, Heathfield said without any hesitation: "To be honest, I am not very familiar with Chelsea. I have never worked with Chelsea before.
I have played in Chelsea games, so I am a bit unfamiliar with him. And I have been very busy for more than a month."
There was nothing subtle about Heathfield.
But what he said was not completely wrong.
Bayern started playing the German League Cup in July, and then the Bundesliga started. The Bundesliga has already completed four rounds.
"I believe that as long as we can play at our own pace, we will not be afraid of any opponent."
Very direct.
Of course it fits Heathfield's character very well.
In front of the media, Heathfield never lies or says anything. So much so that Heathfield once said: "I am always honest in front of the media. I don't need to act. Lying is never allowed in today's era.
Because everything you say is recorded, it can be used as a tool to fight back against yourself in the future. Therefore, I am very open and honest in front of the media. Of course, this must be kept within certain limits."
This is Heathfield.
Now Bayern has reached a new peak. Hitzfeld underestimated Chelsea in his heart, so he already showed some indifference in his words.
This is not Heathfield playing psychological warfare, but this is what he thinks.
Of course, Hitzfield despises Chelsea in his heart, but he will still go all out during the game.
This is true for Hitzfield, not to mention the Bayern players.
Bayern is known as the "Hollywood of football".
In the past few years, Bayern has been experiencing constant internal strife within the team, and fights between players are commonplace. There are also corruptions in the private lives of Bayern's big names. Various scandals continue.
Of course, apart from these, all of Bayern's big-name celebrities are big talkers.
I don't know what I'm talking about when I scold someone.
Matthaus is a big role model. After he was kicked off the national team, he cursed people every day in China. So much so that his teammates of the German national team in England couldn't help it. Finally, they jointly wrote a letter to Beckenbauer.
, demanding "Turn off that speaker quickly!".
At Oktoberfest, he yelled at a Dutch tourist: "How did Hitler miss you?"
This is Matthaeus.
Of course, in addition to Matthaus, there is also Basler, who is also a weirdo. Once he boasted to Trapattoni: "Coach, my body is comparable to Schwarzenegger?" Trapattoni was deeply moved.
She glanced at him: "You are no different than a sweating chicken."
They are just rare.
People like Kahn, Lizarazu, Kovacs, and Yankel are all fuel-efficient lamps.
This is why Bayern is known as the "Hollywood of Football".
The most characterful people in Bayern's team right now are Kahn and Effenberg. They are both people with strong personalities and perverse tempers.
Such is the case with Effenberg.
When being interviewed by reporters, some reporters said that Chelsea had already won the quadruple crown, and Williams had scored in all four cup finals. Effenberg responded with great disdain.
"Quadruple crown? Which four titles? Premier League title? Champions League title?"
"Williams, I don't know him. He is just a player praised by the British. He is like a child in front of me. I hope he can understand his position. If he doesn't protect himself and cries, it's none of my business.
