Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Golden Globe Controversy
For both reasons, Baldano is tough, but Florentino wants to calm things down, because Mourinho's performance in this half season is very reasonable except for the heavy defeat to Barcelona, and Real Madrid occupied the top spot in the standings before that game. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Florentino hired the best coach to come because he wanted to produce results, from the summer to the present, Mourinho's desire to buy a center forward has not died, and now Mourinho has raised it again by injuring two strikers, and he is embarrassed to refuse again.
His position is that of Mourinho's leader and arbiter between Mourinho and Baldano, and he cannot blindly side with Baldano, even if what Baldano says is correct.
So he made a suggestion, there is no need to buy us, now the team has three strikers, it is completely enough, only two are absent due to injury problems, but we can try to go on loan, loan a striker to use, if it is combined, it is a big deal to buy it out next season, if it can't be used, it will be returned.
Mourinho had no choice but to listen to the arbiter's advice, and Real Madrid wanted to find a centre-forward in the transfer market.
When Zhang Yuan was still lying in the hospital, the national team set off for Qatar to start the 2011 Asian Cup journey, and the lack of Zhang Yuan not only made the fans lack confidence, but also the confidence of the team's players was also hit to a certain extent.
On the afternoon of January 8, Zhang Yuan watched the first game of the Chinese team in the ward, but he did not expect the Chinese team to give the fans a huge surprise, and they got off to a good start with a score of 2:0.
Zhang Yuan was excited and happy, and immediately called and texted his teammates in the national team to congratulate them on their first victory.
There are only three games in the group stage, and winning the first game is undoubtedly a good start, and even two draws in the next two games are very likely for China to qualify.
The Chinese team's group can actually be called the group of death, Uzbekistan's strength has never been weak, Qatar is the host, only Kuwait and the Chinese team are half a catty, Kuwait's strength is of course not as good as the Chinese team.
The Chinese team happened to win the first game in Kuwait, and the following two opponents are the most critical, and Uzbekistan needless to say that his own strength is stronger than the Chinese team.
Qatar is a different situation, they are the host and they have money, money can do a lot of things, including football, their strength may not be as good as the Chinese team, but the Chinese team knows that the host is actually the most difficult to deal with.
In the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, South Africa was not very strong, but they played quite well in the cheers of the home team, although they did not qualify in the end, but at least it was not ugly.
Backwards to the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup, hehe, needless to say, in short, the host is not so easy to deal with.
Before the second match of the Chinese team, on January 10, the year-end awards of football were held in Zurich, Switzerland.
Zhang Yuan also received an invitation letter, but unfortunately he can't go now, so he can only go, but he doesn't know, and he doesn't care about this, because he doesn't need to wait for the World Footballer of the Year throne, and there are more players who have more honors than him.
Sneijder is his favourite, he has not been a teammate with Sneijder, but he thinks he is the most likely for Sneijder's performance this year, triple crown winner Inter Milan and World Cup runner-up Netherlands, these two things are enough to add a lot of points to Sneijder.
But the final result was Messi, this result made Zhang Yuan feel very surprised, he felt that Messi had no honor to win except for scoring more goals, Argentina did not even enter the semi-finals of the World Cup, and the club Barcelona did not win the Champions League only won the La Liga Copa del Rey and was kicked out of Sevilla early.
He was able to win the Ballon d'Or by surprise to too many people, and of course he must have known the result for a long time, but it has been kept under wraps.
As a result, the first Ballon d'Or has caused a huge controversy, after the merger of FIFA and the Ballon d'Or of "French football", the statistics are the original two statistical methods to take half of each to sum the score.
France Football is based on the votes of the press, while FIFA is based on the coaches and captains of the member states.
Messi's score on both sides is high, and his score on the media side is not high, and he rose entirely by virtue of the vote of the coach and captain.
According to media sources, many national team coaches and captains themselves do not know who they voted for, which is considered a shady scene, but FIFA has no response or justification.
If this is true, it is nothing, and there is no shortage of disgusting things that FIFA has done.
Zhang Yuan didn't say anything about this award, but when it came to another one that was about to happen, it wasn't that he wanted to fight for anything, but that he felt that it was too nonsense.
He was unhappy that he was the European Silver Boot and the Bundesliga's record holder for consecutive goals, but he did not make it to FIFA's Team of the Year.
Damn, I can't even get into the striker lineup like this, whoever the hell is qualified to enter, Messi will score more goals than me!
Sister Zhang Caiying doesn't know these things very well at all, but brother-in-law Li Jun understands very well, Li Jun said angrily: "These turtle sons are judging a ball!" You can't even make the Team of the Year?! ”
Seeing Zhang Yuan's face, he was also very unhappy, and he hurriedly said: "Alas, it's over! You don't play football for them, so why care about these things outside of you! ”
These are indeed things outside the body, but isn't everyone doing things and taking paths to be recognized? Personal identification is called Ah Q, and the recognition of others is called success.
Some words are just words, and I don't care who can do it.
Zhang Yuan swallowed his anger and held back the fact that he did not bombard these show-style award ceremonies.
But someone couldn't hold it back, and his agent Raiola said in an interview with reporters one day after these results came out: "These awards don't mean anything, it's just a show, everything Zhang Yuan did in Schalke 04 was ignored by that group of people, he is the best scorer, I don't understand why he can't get into the best team!" In my opinion, the Ballon d'Or should at least be in the top three, but in fact he is outside the top 10! ”
"What's Zhang Yuan's reaction?! He's calm! He plays for the fans, these awards are not important to him, he wants to help his team the most! Raiola raised Zhang Yuan's ideals and aspirations high in front of the reporters.
It's not just Raiola who said this, Zhang Yuan's teammate Neuer in Schalke 04 stood up for Zhang Yuan.
"Zhang Yuan's credit in Schalke 04 is obvious to all, and they are clearly discriminating against our small teams like this!"
Neuer thinks very clearly anyway, he is not afraid of offending people, anyway, he works hard all his life and doesn't expect to win the Golden Ball, there is only one precedent in the goalkeeper position, Buffon has never won the Golden Ball Award, Neuer himself certainly does not have any hope, and he speaks straightforwardly.
He's absolutely right, look at who the best team is, it's all the big players, and the players of the small team want to win their favor, no matter how good they are.
These were just some of the post-ceremony bids that Spain had won the 2010 World Cup, and they had a high demand for their own players, with Xavi and Andres Iniesta being the most vocal ones.
Xavi is the brain of Barcelona and the Spanish national team, and Iniesta is the big man, Barcelona's six-time champion should be thanks to Iniesta's stunner, and the Spanish national team in the World Cup in South Africa should be grateful to Iniesta for his stunner, if it weren't for him, the uncrowned king of the Netherlands may become history from now on, and Spain may not be able to break through zero.
After FIFA's shortlist was announced, the Spanish media began to hype up the two players, with Xavi being the loudest.
But the final result was undoubtedly disappointing, although it was club team-mate Lionel Messi who won the Ballon d'Or, and Xavi and Iniesta congratulated their team-mates on the pitch.
However, they will not be so reserved in interviews with Spanish media, and Xavi has bombarded the selection system.
"The way in which the selection was made was unfair and based on the fact that Senegal, Fiji and France, England and Germany voted the same way, and obviously not everyone had the same information. Of course, this can only be relative. That day I read a report of a high-level player who didn't win the Ballon d'Or, and it turned out that Baresi had never won any of them! ”
This is a very unfair feeling to the ballot system. (To be continued.) )
