129, the new season (two more guaranteed!) )
August 17, Inter Milan's last warm-up match before the season.
In this game, they finally won.
Chu Ge scored two goals in the game to help the team win with a score of 3:1.
He only played half the game in this game.
A few days later, the league was about to start, and the main players only played half time and went down to rest.
The difference between this warm-up match and the previous ones is that behind Chu Ge, Brozovic is always inseparable. The two have a lot of passing and running cooperation in the game, and there are often cross-changes.
Mateo Kovacic missed the warm-up game.
The next day, the Croatia international moved to Real Madrid, while Jovetic wore the number 10 shirt left by Mateo Kovacic.
With the transfer funds, Inter Milan have set their targets on Perisic and Mertens. Until the transfer window closes, Inter Milan's managers are still busy.
Kovacic's transfer made Chu Ge suddenly fall into passivity.
The Croatian number 10 is one of Inter Milan fans' favourite Inter players, with excellent ball protection skills and the ability to dribble with one hand, full of aura, many fans see him as the team's hope for the future.
However, he was sold.
After selling Kovacic, head coach Roberto Mancini explained to the media that the team did not want to sell him, but had to make the decision for the sake of UEFA's financial fairness and to complement the squad.
His words made Inter Milan fans very dissatisfied.
If Kovacic is sold in order to buy Chu Ge and Perisic, who are being introduced, many Inter fans, especially those of Inter Milan in Italy, think that it is better not to bring in reinforcements and keep Kovacic directly.
As early as rumours of Kovacic's move began, fans launched the #Save Kovačič campaign in an attempt to sign autographs to keep the rising star.
However, the team still sold their favorite player.
Fans were furious over Kovacic's departure.
Mancini and the team's management were scolded by them, and even Chu Ge was also affected.
However, Chu Ge was only affected, he only had a reduced impression among the fans, and the direct impact was not great.
The day of the first round of the league is getting closer.
Major media have begun to make predictions about Serie A this season.
The most favored team is undoubtedly the Juventus team.
Since the 2011-12 season, Juventus, the "Bianconeri", has been winning the Serie A title for a second time. As of this season, they have won the league four times in a row.
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, defenders Chiellini, Bonucci, Bazagli, midfielders Pogba, Khedira, Marchisio, and forwards Mandzukic, Dybala, Cuadrado, are all famous stars in Serie A. In particular, Paul Pogba in midfield and Dybala, who has just moved from Palermo this season, are both widely regarded as talented players.
In the summer transfer period, Juventus, in addition to Dybala, Mandzukic, and Khedira, also spent 23.4 million euros to buy Sandro from Porto.
Despite the sale of Vidal to Bayern Munich, the squad has steadily improved.
Countless experts and fans believe that the Bianconeri will still dominate Serie A this season barring any major surprises.
If there is a team that can threaten Juventus' back-to-back title, the media and pundits generally agree that it should be Napoli and Roma.
Maurizio Sarri's Napoli are a breath of fresh air in Serie A.
While other teams are playing counter-attacking, or a strengthened version of counter-attacking, Maurizio Sarri's Napoli are all about passing. Their style of football is unique in the conservative Serie A.
The trident of Hamsik, Insigne and Higuain is incredibly powerful and the most attacking attacking combination in Serie A.
They had a poor season last season, finishing fifth in the league, but the team has a lot of potential and is widely acclaimed. A lot of people are optimistic that this team will get a good result this season.
This summer transfer window, Napoli has not moved much.
They only spent 10.35 million euros to buy Alan from Udinese, a midfielder who can play both offensive and defensive.
The "Red Wolves" Roma were the runners-up last season and the coach was Frenchman Rudy Garcia.
Roma have not moved much in the transfer market this season. They just bought Falk from Genoa, as well as Paredes, the star of hope from the blogger youth. In addition, they also sold Romagnoli and Bertolaci, who had just recovered from Genoa, to AC Milan and Gervinho to China, making a profit in the transfer market.
However, it is worth mentioning that Egyptian winger Salah has joined Roma.
Because Salah refused to renew his lease with Fiorentina, Fiorentina quarreled with Inter Milan for a summer and threatened to take Inter Milan to court.
As a result, Rome's silent fishermen profited.
They have paid $5 million to sign Mohamed Salah from Chelsea and have a right of first refusal at the end of the season.
Juventus, Napoli and Roma have been classified by the media and experts as the teams in the first pot of Serie A this season. Their strength is much better than other teams.
And teams such as Inter Milan, AC Milan, Fiorentina, and Lazio are all classified as second pots.
If Pot 1 is a prospect of competing for the league title, Pot 2 is aiming to be spoilers. If you can finish third in the league and qualify for next season's Champions League, it will be the biggest success.
Generally speaking, their goal for the season should be to finish fourth to sixth, which is to qualify for the Europa League.
Milan Sport commented on Inter Milan: "Letting go of one star of hope (Kovacic) and bringing in another star of hope (Chu Ge), the quality of the team has not changed. The addition of Miranda has strengthened the team's defense. However, the loss of Mohamed Salah and the departure of players such as Shaqiri and Podolski to bring in only one Jovetic is clearly not enough. ”
"If we can't bring in more front-court players, just rely on Palacio who is past his prime, Icardi and Chu who are young and still growing, and Jovetic who is still in the health and question mark, then Inter Milan's results this season may not be too ideal."
And Torino Sport, which has always been at odds with Inter Milan, is more direct.
"This season's Serie A will still belong to Juventus. They don't have an opponent in the league. The only suspense may be whether Juventus will be able to make a breakthrough in the Champions League this season. ”
Juventus reached the Champions League final last season, only to lose to Barcelona in the final and finish as runners-up.
Torino Sport hopes that Juventus can make a breakthrough and of course expects them to win the title.
As for Juventus' old rival, Inter Milan, Torino Sports is merciless and ridiculed.
"The warm-up game turned into a fancy losing show, with 20 million euros to buy a kid who couldn't score goals, and they actually sold Kovacic, the most favored of all. Inter Milan's transfer manager was probably sent by their city-side rivals. ”
"It looks like Inter Milan will have another season of nothing."
"In the first round of the league, we met Atalanta."
"With Inter's recent poor form, expect them to lose."
