Chapter 191 Popularity has increased greatly (for the alliance leader jiarui1203 to be added)

When Valencia, who won perennially, won 3-0 at home to Liverpool in their first Champions League game, no one thought it was a big deal. ////

The strength between Liverpool and Valencia, whoever wins is normal, Valencia caught up with the home game, and winning 3:0 is not a big deal.

It was only when Valencia beat Spartak Moscow 3-0 away that people started to take the team seriously.

However, attention is still limited.

After all, if you pay attention to it as long as you win two in a row, then this attention is too unreliable, right?

But when Valencia unceremoniously slaughtered Basel, the second place in the group that came to challenge, 6:0 at home, everyone looked at Valencia in a completely different way.

Basel have already proven their quality through their performances in the first two group stages and they are a tenacious team.

This is evident from the fact that they can get out of Anfield and bring back a point.

But it was such a tenacious team that was defeated 6:0 by Valencia in Mestalla!

After three games in the group stage, Valencia scored 12 goals without conceding a single goal. Ranked first among all 32 teams participating in the Champions League during the same period!

Such a team is obviously no longer able to be viewed and evaluated from a general perspective.

The whole of Europe has to start facing up to this team.

After the game, I don't know that it was Spain and Switzerland, and the media throughout Europe were overwhelmingly reported about this game.

The score between Valencia and Basel was the biggest in the Champions League group stage.

This score surprised many people who didn't watch the game - even if Valencia was strong and Basel was weak, it wouldn't have played such a scoreline, right?

You must know that Basel is second in the group, and they have never been at a disadvantage against Liverpool.

Why was he beaten by Valencia and had no power to fight back?

They go to see the highlights, they watch the footage of the game.

After reading it, these people who felt incredible fell silent.

Judging from the video of the game, Basel really lost unjustly.

Valencia were in complete control of the situation on the pitch.

The final possession rate was 72 per cent for Valencia and a measly 28 per cent for Basel......

More than 70 per cent possession is the reason why Valencia were able to beat their opponents by such a large margin.

The football was firmly at Valencia's feet, and Basel could only run behind Valencia's butt.

They were exhausted and completely lost the initiative.

Valencia, on the other hand, is like a cat that has caught a mouse, playing with its prey.

In this, of course, the key role is played by Valencia's tactics.

A modified version of Tiki-taka that Tsunesheng calls "Mad Dog".

Football experts from all over the world have their eyes on Valencia. They analysed Valencia's tactical arrangements from all angles.

In the end, the conclusion was unanimously similar - this Valencia team played football ahead of its time. Their football philosophy is very advanced, relying on the simplest "pass" to complete very complex tactics.

Watching their football is a beautiful treat.

First of all, everyone admits that Valencia's football is very good, they pass continuously, run smoothly, and give everyone a beautiful enjoyment.

Secondly, the most important thing is that the team will play well and win and win the championship.

That's the kind of football they played last season and they won the league title that season. It proves that you can win a championship if you play well. Until then, there had been a popular saying in football that if you want to win a title, you have to give up the crowd.

Or rather, the team that wins the spectators loses the championship.

But the appearance of Valencia shows everyone that this is not the case.

They can win the audience and win the championship at the same time!

Their success has given confidence to many teams that stick to attacking football.

Then the media experts analyzed it further and found that the situation was not as good as they thought.

While Valencia's football has given confidence to many teams that stick to attacking football, the reality is that if they try to imitate Valencia, they will die a miserable death.

The reason is simple, they don't have that many suitable players.

However, Chang Sheng has found many players from the transfer market who are very compatible with the team's tactics.

This is perhaps the key reason why Valencia has been able to achieve such results.

In any case, Valencia's tactics are very powerful, and the success of coming up with this tactic is naturally classified as a talented coach and has attracted the attention of the whole Europe.

More and more journalists are coming outside Patna Sports City to try to interview Chang Sheng.

After each training session, the largest number of journalists around him is not Ibrahimovic, not Vicente, not Albelda, not Kanizares, but ...... Always winning.

Everyone is very interested in this mysterious oriental manager.

In addition, the Chinese media who had been squatting on the ground also found out that they could interview Chang Sheng, which made them happy.

Many people interviewed Chang Sheng and wondered why he was able to achieve so much at such a young age.

The standard answer to winning is that his years of study abroad in Europe have given him a lot of accumulation, and at the same time, he has an excellent team. Gonzalez, Pep Guardiola...... These people have given themselves a lot of help and support.

This is the answer Chang Sheng made when he was accepting Ji Leng, and now it has become the standard answer he uses to deal with those reporters.

It's easy to say that, because it's reasonable and impeccable.

Even the most inquiring reporter can't find the problem. All of Changsheng's experiences are true and well documented. But who would have thought that in this human shell was a soul from 2012?

Moreover, he can also attract a lot of people to have a good impression of him, thinking that he is a modest, not greedy and good coach, who attaches great importance to his team, and does not take all the credit to himself.

Chang Sheng's name and photo began to appear frequently in the mainstream media in Europe.

With the spread of these media reports, more and more people know about Chang Sheng.

Changsheng's popularity has increased greatly.

After the match against Basel, it was immediately followed by the fifth round of the league, with Valencia hosting Celta Vigo.

In this game, because of the constant victory, the team insisted on a large number of rotations, and the team finally drew 1-1 with Celta at home.

Five league rounds, three wins, two draws, 11 points.

Valencia dropped one place in the league standings, from third to fourth.

Because Real Madrid's performance in these rounds of the league is very good, with three wins and two draws like Valencia, accumulating eleven points, but their goal difference is more than Valencia, so they beat Valencia and sit in the third place in the league.

When this scene appeared, the media in Madrid were excited to say that Real Madrid had finally completed the comeback in the league standings.

This was something that didn't happen last season - Real Madrid are in a better league position than Valencia!

However, in the face of the elated Madridians, Chang Sheng's answer was very simple, but definitely bloody.

"Out of breath!"

He said.

Valencia's opening performance this season has actually been quite good, and they are unbeaten so far. But they don't have a very high league standing.

This is because at the beginning of the new season, many teams performed well, and everyone's points were tight.

After the second round of the league, the teams that have won two consecutive games can only rely on goal difference to distinguish between high and low in the standings for the time being.

As the league progresses, the layers are gradually opened, but there are also a few teams that have been stuck in points.

For example, after three rounds, the number one in the ranking turned out to be Celta, who won all three games and accumulated nine points.

Valencia, on the other hand, are third on seven points, and they are still on goal difference. There are as many as five teams with seven points.

After five rounds, Valencia are fourth with 11 points.

Celta have fallen from top of the league as they came to a two-game draw.

Now the top of the league is not Valencia, nor Deportivo La Coruna, let alone Real Madrid and Barcelona, but Real Sociedad.

After five rounds, they have won four and drawn one, and they are at the top of the table with 13 points.

This came as a surprise to many.

You must know that in previous seasons, Real Sociedad has always been in the middle of the lower ranking, and even almost relegated at one point.

Now it can be ranked first in the league with an unbeaten record, surpassing the defending champion Valencia, and the traditional giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Many even believe that Real Sociedad will be a strong contender for the La Liga title this season.

Real Sociedad is a testament to how difficult it is to defend the title – Valencia is good enough, right? Three wins and two draws, unbeaten, but such a performance can only rank fourth in the league!

Real Sociedad's outstanding performances were due to the excellent performance of a young player.

He's Harvey. Alonso.

Harvey. Alonso is the kind of player whose team-mates will perform better than usual as long as he is on the pitch.

To put it bluntly, it's the engine of the team.

Historically, Real Sociedad have also performed very well this season, finishing runners-up in the league. Second only to champions Real Madrid.

Last season, Real Madrid was the usual rival, but Valencia's rivals were not Real Madrid, but Deportivo La Coruna, who have been second in the league.

This season is similar to last season, with Valencia going toe-to-toe with Real Sociedad.

After the national team break, in the sixth round of the league, Valencia challenged Atletico Madrid away.

Atletico Madrid, who were in the second division last season, managed to be promoted under the leadership of Aragonés, and they were promoted by a huge margin.

Although they were promoted, Atletico Madrid will not forget the culprit who spent an extra season in the second division.

That's always winning.

The ever-winning Getafe kicked Atletico Madrid back into the second division when they were already promoted early, causing Atletico Madrid to waste another season in the second division.

This time it was hard to rise up, and the first thing Atletico Madrid did was to find revenge.

The league has only been six rounds into play, and that's when the scene comes.

And it's also the home of Atletico Madrid!

There is simply no better stage for revenge!

Atletico Madrid fans don't care that Valencia is the top of the league at the moment, and there are a lot of media praise and whatever.

They just want revenge, and they want this arrogant villain to accept the punishment of Atletico Madrid!

"We're back from hell, get ready for the Last Judgment, damn Chinese!"

Atletico Madrid fans are starting to look forward to beating Valencia at the Calderón Stadium.

ps, the banned alliance leader is too sad......

Thanks to jiarui1203 for the two red tips, although they are not shown......

Also, everyone, there are two hours left in the battle.

We really have a chance of finishing fourth!

Let's get closer to the old cat!
