Because AC Milan will also host Roma in the league at the weekend, the players who don't have to run around were given a day off by Jiang Qi to release the pressure of the previous day's game.

However, Milan's coaching staff and advisory team have no time to rest, with only one round left in the Champions League group stage, and the situation in most of the groups has become clear, and Milan's uniform team needs to focus on preparing for the knockout stage after the New Year.

"After yesterday's game, we have 12 points from five games, four wins and one loss in the group stage, and Chelsea have nine points from three wins and two losses in five games, because Bayer Leverkusen did not take advantage of the Turks, with only five points from five games, one win, two draws and two losses, and Carlo also led the team out of the group with only one round of lead of 4 points, but we and Chelsea have a draw in two games, and the goal difference is superior, so we have won the group ahead of schedule." In the team, the scouting team not only needs to observe the potential and capable players, but also collects information about various opponents, and now the old Maldini who is in charge of the scouting team is holding a thick pile of summary materials to introduce the situation.

Uncle Ma explained the situation in Group A, and Xiao Ma, who entered the coaching staff in the new season, filled in the names of AC Milan and Chelsea on the tactical board.

"Group B is clear in terms of strength and weakness, Real Madrid have won all five games without missing a beat, Porto and Monaco have lost key players in the summer transfer period, the strength has dropped significantly, and Kiev is currently competing for another qualifying place in the final round, now it seems that Monaco is in a better situation, they will face Real Madrid at the top of the table, Real Madrid is currently in a fierce competition with Barcelona in the league, this game will inevitably send young players and marginal people in the substitute rotation, which is much better than competing with rivals."

This is an analysis from Milan's veteran Galli, with Maldini writing Real Madrid's name at the bottom of Group B and then Monaco with a question mark in second place.

Jiang Qi shook his head, "No matter which team in this group ends up as the second in the group, it will not be the opponent we will meet in the first round of the knockout round." ”

"Group C is the clearest, Barcelona is at the top of the table with four wins and one draw and 13 points, Bremen is second with two wins, two draws and one loss with eight points, and the remaining Panathinnaks and Anderlecht are not competitive, and the only suspense in this group is probably three or four places to fight for a place in the League Cup, but that's not what we need to focus on."

Maldini wrote down the names of Barcelona and Bremen in turn.

Yan Yi sat in the scouting group, and while listening, he kept sketching something in his notebook, and stopped his pen when he heard the old Maldini's description of the situation in Group C, "From the promotional video of the Champions League this season to the group stage, it can be seen that Barcelona is a team that UEFA is trying to launch to create momentum, they have gorgeous scenes, eye-catching superstars, giants of glory, and the most important thing is the value of commercial development...... This season, because of Andre's departure, I guess UEFA originally felt that the commercial value of our team should be discounted, but I didn't expect that the team's promotion in the two major markets of China and the United States in the summer was very successful, and the results of the commercial value assessment did not fall but increased...... So, I think UEFA will consider avoiding an early meeting with Barcelona before the final. ”

He talked about the commercial value in front of his words, but the last sentence suddenly turned around and turned to the matchup, which made a burst of chuckles in the conference room, but judging from the actions and expressions of many people, Yan Yi's analysis was agreed by everyone.

Every year in the Champions League, UEFA will spend most of its efforts on the arrangement of the draw, how to improve the attention is the topic they are most concerned about, therefore, although there are many giants in the Champions League, but the treatment is not the same, UEFA needs to consider not only the prestige of the club, but also the benefits that this club can bring to them from a global scale. From such a utilitarian point of view, although Jiang Qi, the head coach, will never have the style of an idol like Uncle Bird, the other titles he wears on him also play the same role, attracting more fans' attention to AC Milan.

"The situation in Group D is a little complicated ......", Maldini Sr. flipped through the group's analysis report, and turned his head to look at Yan Yi, who had just predicted Barcelona's future, this Group D report was written by this talented scout, "Juventus and Bayern Munich are the top two in the group, the difference in points between the two teams is only 1 point, but they have already emerged from the group, and the last game is a direct dialogue between the two teams, thus determining the first place in the group." ”

Old Maldini suddenly stopped, "Yan, there is too much space in the analysis later, so you should briefly explain your speculation yourself." ”

"Good!" , Yan Yi closed the book in front of him, "Bayern has the home advantage in the last game, but now the Bundesliga giant is not performing well in the top third of the league, and the current points have fallen to third place, the Champions League group has been qualified, I'm afraid Bayern will consider saving their strength, as for how Juventus chooses, it depends on their team's goals this season, they are playing against weak teams in the two league games before and after the Champions League in midweek, and if you want to keep the top spot, you only need to take a point away from home, In this way, it seems that the two teams are half a catty, and the final result cannot be accurately predicted. ”

He paused deliberately, "But from another point of view, Juventus and Bayern Munich in this group, no matter who becomes the second place in Group D, the chances of the first round of the knockout round and our encounter are close to 0, Juventus is also from Serie A, and it will be automatically avoided when drawing lots, Bayern Munich was our opponent in the first round of the knockout round last season, even if UEFA Lenovo plays the trick of old friends, it will not be simply copied and pasted, so we can not focus on these two teams." ”

In fact, not only the first round of the knockout round, Jiang Qi himself has also privately pondered UEFA's thinking, after entering the quarterfinals, a team like Bayern Munich that is in turmoil in personnel turnover is unlikely to be in a half zone with Milan, UEFA will try its best to put the variables in the Champions League this season into the AC Milan half zone, such as those that have enough strength to impact the championship, but are not favored by UEFA, or the dark horse teams that appear in the season......

The little brother who was in charge of the roll call on the tactical board hesitated, and then wrote Juventus and Bayern Munich in order of group D according to the current ranking order of the group.
