Chapter 62

(one)

No one denies that Roma is a strong team. In the decades of Italian professional league history, Roma has only fallen out of Serie A once. This is not even comparable to the top three in the north. It has participated in the three major European Cups 19 times.

The experience also allowed the Roma team to surpass any of the three northern powers.

However, Roma can only be regarded as a strong team, but it cannot be called a giant. In the past 80 years, it has only been relegated once. However, Roma has only won three league championships. Although it has won the Italian Cup 9 times and participated in 19

There are three major European Cups, but there is only one experience of winning the cup in the three major cups, which was in the distant 1961.

Ranieri, who took over the reins from the third round last season, ultimately did not let Roma escape the fate of being the second best player in the millennium. Although Roma led by Ranieri was forced by Fiorentina with the help of Inter Milan in the 33rd round last season.

The level game once reached the top, but after two rounds Roma lost to Sampdoria at home and were overtaken. In the last three rounds, Roma and Inter Milan both won the last three rounds. In the end, Roma was still 2 points behind. Unfortunately, it was once again with the championship.

Missed.

This season's collective coaching change among the top three in the north is considered to be a great opportunity for Roma and Ranieri to take advantage of the situation to reach the top. However, in the first six rounds of games, Roma had 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses. It was like sleepwalking.

The Roma team is currently ranked third from the bottom with 5 points. Such an embarrassing result certainly does not represent the strength of the Roma team, and Ranieri did not explain this.

(two)

Italian fans can see without explanation that the disagreement between Roma's generals has become more serious this season, and the conflict between coach Ranieri and football tycoon Totti has gone from being half-covered to an open fact.

In the 75th minute of the fifth round of the league, Totti got angry and went back to the locker room after being replaced. However, in the game, Totti scored a goal with Totti off the field, beating Inter Milan 1:0 and winning Roma's only goal.

A victory! But Totti did not wait for his teammates to celebrate in the locker room, but left early.

After the game, "Gazzetta dello Sport" commented on Totti's performance in this game as "environmentally friendly playing style, running 0 kilometers, making mistakes in stopping the ball in front of the goal, abusing his heels, and shooting without aim, so he was naturally replaced."

The current Roma team feels familiar to Ranieri, as if he was in the same predicament that Ranieri was in when he was at Juventus. When he was at Juventus, it was Del Piero, and when he was at Roma, it was Totti.

As the team's flag bearer and a former superstar, Totti and Del Piero are equally dissatisfied with old age and hope to win honors at an advanced age like Maldini. However, neither of them can maintain the rhythm of their youth, and the more the team relies on them.

, the results are more likely to fluctuate.

For example, in this game, Roma's victory over Inter Milan was achieved after Totti came off the field. In fact, in the second round of the derby against Lazio last season, Roma achieved a reversal after Totti came off the field. However, these will not change Totti at all.

status in Rome, also

Ranieri cannot be given more reasons to replace Totti. The media that criticized Totti was also Gazzetta dello Sport. The local media in Rome still supported Totti, and the Roma fans also followed Mussolini just like they did back then.

Fanatic and unreasonable expression of support for Totti.

(three)

In addition to Totti, Adriano, who joined Roma this season, is also troublesome.

This former Inter Milan player who was once revered as the "King" by the fans at Meazza Stadium has a beast-like strong body and the delicate footwork that is the trademark of Brazilian players. He has speed, body, strength, technology, and scoring ability.

His set-piece ability is almost the closest to perfect player imaginable, but his chaotic private life and loose personality almost completely ruined Adriano himself, and he was eventually kicked out by Inter Milan at the age of 18 last season.

, sold to Flamengo at a cheap price.

You must know that it was not easy for Inter Milan to make this decision. From the 20102 season when Adriano was 18 years old, Inter Milan recruited him and sent him to the two "satellite teams" of Florence and Parma for training.

He has been entrusted with important tasks since the 0304 season.

Originally, Adriano was really supposed to be trained as the world's number one center, but like many players from South America, Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia, they were lost in European cities and couldn't extricate themselves. According to the Italian media

Among the "Top Ten Fallen Geniuses in Italian Football" compiled in 2010, Adriano ranked third.

There is no problem with Ranieri's idea of ​​recruiting Adriano to his staff. This year, Roma will face a three-front battle in the league, the Champions League and the Italian Cup. Under the request of the club owner to attack on three fronts, Ranieri naturally needs to deal with the three fronts.

The bench depth of the line is fully configured.

At the center position, Ranieri's first choice is Borriello, who was introduced from AC Milan, followed by former Real Madrid player and Adriano's Brazilian teammate Baptista, who transferred to Roma in 2008.

The third choice is Adriano.

Adriano is not happy about returning to Europe. He is still immersed in the glorious memory of being the "King of Meazza". He is very, very dissatisfied whether he is serving as a substitute or the third substitute.

In fact, the current situation of Totti and Adriano is also the current situation of the Roma team. The so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The two of them are not in good condition as they are older, but they are very high-spirited. This is like the Roma team although the record is not good.

Good, but pride still remains.

(Four)

There is another highlight of this game, that is, the headquarters and founding place of "La Repubblica" is in Rome. Perhaps out of the mentality of local protection, or because Chen Zhuo is a player of AC Milan, in short, Rome is

The city was full of hostility towards Chen Zhuo inside and outside.

Rome is also the capital of Italy, the center of Italian politics, economy and culture. Think about it, the newspaper with the second largest circulation headquartered in the Italian capital is actually controlled by the political enemy of the Italian Prime Minister. How could Berlusconi not eliminate it?

And what about the thought of quickness?

A large number of demonstrators gathered in front of the hotel where Genoa settled. If nothing else, these are "fake fans". They held up Chen Zhuo's head with a red cross, and Chen Zhuo could understand the Italian words written below,

They say Genoa are AC Milan’s lackeys, and Chen Zhuo is Berlusconi’s son.

"Rome is a world-famous city that belongs to the whole world. Such a clumsy behavior by a certain newspaper can only discredit this famous city! Speech**? Haha,**, how many crimes have been committed in your name!"

On Twitter, Chen Zhuo posted a set of photos of the demonstrators taken from the bus window, and added this paragraph below, writing Mrs. Roland’s famous words in Italian as a comment, synchronized on the Chinese Weibo, Chen Zhuo also

Posted this picture to accompany the comment.

On Facebook, Chen Zhuo posted pictures of classic buildings in Rome and the blue sky and white clouds of the training ground. The comments accompanying the pictures were also comments on the scenery and mood. They were also in three languages: Italian, German and English, and what he had recently learned about himself.

It expresses emotion and respect for the history and culture of Rome.

"The best way to respect the city of Rome is to try your best to defeat the strong team of Rome. This is also respect for football!" This is the content of a tweet sent by Chen Zhuo at noon on the match day, with the picture of Sri Lanka

A poster produced by Panwitz's technical department.

On the poster, Maximus is wearing armor, holding a sword and shield, with a football under his feet. His avatar has been transformed into Chen Zhuo through photoshop. In the middle of the background is the colorful Rome Olympic Stadium, and in the background are black and white Roman landmark buildings. The Roman Dome

The Colosseum, Pantheon, and National Museum of Rome are all very interestingly designed.

Although it has been more than a week since we officially used self-media such as twitter and weibo as an interactive platform with the media and fans, the media are accustomed to this approach. What they have to do now is to express their opinions on Chen Zhuo before the game.

Media and left messages for in-depth comments. After the game, I asked Saoirse questions and hoped to send corresponding replies on twitter and weibo as soon as possible.

(five)

Whether it’s twitter or weibo, they are all peripheral, and they are not powerful enough to determine the outcome of the game. Before the game against Roma, Chen Zhuo also seriously participated in the coaching staff’s tactical discussion meeting, and according to Gass

Pelini's arrangement, carefully followed the team's tactical drills, and made full preparations.

At the tactical discussion meeting, the coaching staff analyzed in detail the tactics and lineup that Ranieri might adopt. Since Ranieri was no stranger to him, when the Roma starting lineup was finally announced, Chen Zhuo also discovered that this was different from Gaspé.

The situation analyzed by Rini is almost exactly the same.

Ranieri is a typical Italian coach. He believes in making fewer mistakes and catching the opponent's mistakes. He is based on defense and fighting. Starting from Campania, Atlanta gained fame from C to A in four years.

In Naples, Florence, Valencia, Chelsea, Madrid

At Sporting and Juventus, he adheres to this set of concepts and ideas. The lineup is also fine-tuned between 4-4-2 and 4-3-1-2. This is his characteristic, and even "Milan Sports"

The newspaper once called him "the last defender of traditional Italian football concepts."

There are two main shortcomings. The first one is offensive tactics. Ranieri, who devotes his energy to defensive counterattacks, is not good at positional warfare. He is relatively passive and dogmatic in offense. He emphasizes wing attack and midfield defense. Ranieri's tactics.

Once the core of the system is discovered by the opponent,

There was nothing he could do after that. When he fell behind, he still followed the fixed substitution pattern and played at a fixed rhythm. This was obviously an incorrect idea. Ranieri did not have the courage to risk his life and survive. But in critical moments, he did not have such courage.

The team can only die little by little in helplessness.

After losing 0:1 to Bayern in the first game of the Champions League group stage this season, Totti publicly criticized Ranieri and later publicly apologized to him.

That criticism and apology was the first time this season that the conflict between Ranieri and Totti was exposed. When playing against Inter Milan, Totti got angry because he was substituted early and later apologized. It was the second time. Basically, the first and

The second time, and most of them the third time, and slowly it becomes a habit.

This is also Ranieri's second weakness. His weak personality has always been a flaw that Ranieri cannot erase. He does not have the superior ability to control the dressing room like Mourinho. From Valencia to

Chelsea, then Juventus and Roma, often have conflicts with team bosses, and Ranieri is often the one who compromises.

(six)

In Roma's lineup for this game, the 34-year-old Totti is still the starting forward and will play the entire game if nothing else goes wrong. His partner, center Borriello, is still used as a tactical support point.

After replacing Totti for a victory, in the last round of the game with Totti's apology and Ranieri's compromise, Totti once again served as the core of the offense and played the entire game, and Roma once again lost 0:2.

Naples. I don’t know what kind of adjustments and drills Ranieri made during the two-week truce period, but there are still no changes in the starting lineup.

The four midfielders, Pizarro, Riise, De Rossi and Jeremy Mendes, the four defenders Cicinho, Burdisso, Juan and Cassetti, due to the injury of the first goalkeeper Sergio

Although he has not recovered from his illness, Bogdan Lobont is still starting the game.

It still emphasizes wing attack, still emphasizes midfield defense, and still relies on breakthroughs from the wing, Borriello's tactical support, and Totti's heroic performance, it is still the same.

Gasperini's tactical arrangement is very targeted. He still uses the Twin Towers 2.0 tactical system. He starts with a 3-5-2 lineup. The midfielder is still the old captain Marco Rossi and Veloso.

Partner, with Chen Zhuo as the attacking midfielder, starting the game first

The triangle defense system was used to contain Roma's wing attack, forcing Roma to find Totti in the middle through Chilean midfielder Pizarro. After Roma went to the center, Genoa formed an offensive and defensive transition by surrounding Totti, and then Chen Zhuo

Instigate a counterattack.

In the first ten minutes of the game, the two sides exchanged offense and defense. When fully used, Totti barely touched the ball. Just like what "Gazzetta dello Sport" criticized, Totti still played in an environmentally friendly way, running 0 kilometers.

There is no intention of being proactive.

It should be emphasized here that only non-Roma media such as "Gazzetta dello Sport" would say that the whole of Rome has doted on Totti. They are willing to tolerate all Totti's shortcomings and think that Totti is everything.

Yes, this is incredible.

This is really not an exaggeration. For example, Totti is slow and unwilling to run more. Roma fans think this is called "gorgeous and noble". When the head coach emphasizes running tactics, which makes Totti uncomfortable, the Roma team

The fans' choice is to let him go.

In the 11th minute, Totti tried to dribble the ball through the middle for the first time. Marco Rossi and Veloso attacked head-on. Chen Zhuo retreated to steal. Everything moved forward according to Gasperini's design.

Chen Zhuo collided with Totti when he was stuck and fighting for his position. When he turned to get away, Totti lost his balance and fell to the ground. The referee immediately blew the whistle to stop the game and awarded Chen Zhuo a foul...

At home in Rome, Totti will still be tacitly cared for and taken care of by the referees. Basically, if Totti falls, the opponent will be awarded a foul, not to mention that this time the fight is against Roma's enemies. (To be continued.)
