Chapter 198: Little Zhuge Guidolin

After the match against Torino, the first round of the Serie A season has finally come to an end.

With Fiorentina's four-goal win over Torino the highest score in Serie A, Fiorentina were fortunate to beat their rivals on goal difference and move to the top of the table after the first round.

Behind Fiorentina are Juventus, Lazio, Milan and Udinese, who also won in this round.

Juventus and Lazio both beat their opponents 4-1 at home and performed very well, but had to stay in second place due to one goal difference less than Fiorentina.

The Milan duo also showed their renewed prowess to the fans: AC Milan beat Padua 2-1 away from home thanks to a goal from Liberian striker George Weah, who was brought in from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, before the final whistle; On the other hand, the Nerazzurri at the Meazza Stadium faced this season's promoted Vicenza team, although Inter Milan was far superior to their opponents on paper, but in the face of the unanimous Vicenza people, Inter Milan also played an extremely difficult game, only relying on Maurizio Guntz's header in the first half to win with difficulty.

In the first round of the league, several teams with the strength to compete for the Serie A title this season only Parma did not win, they were unexpectedly drawn 1-1 by Atalanta away from home, it seems that after the success of the group of main players in the first division of the old age, Parma's stability has declined to a certain extent, and began to change from a team with the strength to compete for the league championship into a strong team that can affect the direction of the league championship.

As for Sampdoria and Roma, who also did not win in this round of the league, well, Zhuang Mingge personally thinks that these two teams are playing the role of accompanying the prince to study this season, and being able to get a European ticket next season is the biggest victory of the season for them, as for the league championship? Let's stop making this joke......

After all, the team that can win the league championship, generally speaking, its defense is very stable, and the first thing that reflects this stability is their goalkeeper.

Don't look at Juventus' Peruzzi is very poor in terms of flexibility, there are many deficiencies in high ball making and attacking, but in general, he is still a good goalkeeper who does not make low-level mistakes, so Juventus is still a very strong team with his presence.

In the same vein, Inter Milan have Pagliuca, AC Milan have Sebastian Rossi, Lazio and Parma's Macioniani and Butch are also some of the best goalkeepers in Europe, while Roma and Sampdoria are much worse in this regard.

What kind of performance did Barthez look like when he played in the club, and Zhuang Mingge, who is a traverser, is not clear? It's just a nerve knife and can make some really good saves at times, but on many occasions he makes some inexplicable low-level mistakes, which makes Lord Ferguson angry when he plays for Manchester United......

A goalkeeper with inconsistent performances can ruin a team's efforts for a season at any time, and despite his many brilliant performances in the French national team, his neurotic nature is not suitable for a team aspiring to win the league title during a long season.

So, Rome, PASS.

Not to mention Sampdoria, whose owner, Mr. Mantovani Jr., completely dismantled the golden squad this summer. Although Chiesa-Montella-Mancini-Seedorf has also been constructed, the defensive disadvantage has not been significantly improved, and the Samp backline after the departure of the Italian international Pagliuca can be said to have become full of holes in an instant, whether it was Zenga last season or Pagto this season, there is not enough strength to fill this hole, which also makes many professionals not optimistic about Sampdoria this season.

After the international break, Fiorentina internationals returned to the squad to prepare for the next league game.

Unlike last season, this season's Serie A schedule is very tight, because the opening ceremony of the European Championship will be in mid-June next year, so in order to give the national team enough time to prepare and run-in, the whole league will end in late May, so naturally it can't be played once a week most of the time like last season. On 10 September, three days after the European Championship qualifiers, Fiorentina will face the second round away to promoted Vicenza.

Vicenza were beaten at home to the Rossoneri in the first round of the league, but their first-team squad was much better than Fiorentina's first-round opponents: Uruguayan striker Otero who scored three goals in this summer's Copa America, midfielder Ambrosini who was active and balanced in attack and defence, and left-back Francesco Koco, who was seen as Maldini's natural successor......

And the reason why Zhuang Mingge paid attention to Vicenza was not only these players he remembered well, but also the head coach who made him have to be cautious - Francisco Guidolin.

There are a lot of great civilian coaches in Italian football, and Guidolin is one of them.

The civilian coach once made a bold statement when he was in charge of Palermo: "Give me a little more powerful Palermo, and I can easily beat Inter Milan!" ”

In Zhuang Mingge's previous life, Guidolin led Vicenza, a small team that had walked out of the golden boy Rossi and Prince Baggio all the way to the semi-finals of the European Cup Winners' Cup, and he won himself the reputation of "Little Zhuge " with his varied tactical style.

Therefore, in the face of such a Vicenza team, Zhuang Mingge, as the president of Fiorentina, specially reminded Ranieri not to relax because his opponent was just a promoted team.

"You can rest assured, boss!" In the chairman's office, Ranieri confidently gave Zhuang Mingge a package ticket, "No matter how capable Coach Guidolin is, Fiorentina's strength is much stronger than Vicenza!" In the face of absolute strength, any kind of conspiracy and trickery is vulnerable! ”

What I'm afraid of is that your confidence is inflated! Zhuang Mingge glanced at Ranieri angrily, but there was nothing to refute, so he had to say a few words casually and sent the "tinkerer" out of the door.
