In September, the door to the summer transfer market was closed, and under the ardent expectation of countless fans, the Serie A league finally ignited the raging fire as scheduled.

In fact, as early as the day before the opening of the UEFA Super Cup final, the Serie A teams had already completed the first round of competition, but Zhuang Mingge was going to Monaco to participate in the Champions Cup grouping, so it was a pity to miss the debut of Fiorentina in the new season in the league.

As the winner of last season's league championship, the task of the opening game naturally fell on the head of Fiorentina, but what people didn't expect was that the opponent arranged by the Italian Football Association for Purple Lily in the opening game this time was actually Venice, which had caused a lot of trouble for Fiorentina last season!

Regarding the brain-dead decision of the Italian Football Association, Zhuang Mingge has sighed a lot recently. In his opinion, it is naturally better to arrange a strong confrontation in an eye-catching game like the opening game of the league, and it is much better to pick two teams from the seven sisters of Serie A and put them together than the duel between Fiorentina and Venice.

Fiorentina's revenge battle against Venice is also a hyped gimmick, which is true, but it pales in comparison to the world-famous rivalry between the seven sisters of Serie A. What's more, the current Venice is no longer the team with the two stars of Recoba and Mutu in the second half of last season, after the Uruguayan was recalled by the thirsty Inter Milan, this fish belly team is only Mutu is struggling to support. In such a situation, it would be good for Venice not to be beaten by Fiorentina, where would they dare to talk about winning?

Therefore, a game like this, which seems to be interesting but actually has no suspense at all, is the most unsuitable for the opening game. The Football Association official in charge of arranging the league schedule is definitely brain pumping again, can't you pick two teams from our seven sisters to play the opening game, do you have to throw Venice up? When he got the league schedule for the new season of Fiorentina, Zhuang Mingge thought so in his heart.

As Zhuang expected, Fiorentina scored a goal in the opening game, with Vieri, Ronaldo and Shevchenko scoring a goal each, and Effenberg netting the icing on the cake before the end of the game to help the Purple Lilies avenge last season's defeat on the road to a 4-0 win over Venezia.

With this big victory, Fiorentina was able to beat Inter Milan at the promoted Verona by three goals at the Meazza Stadium after the first round of Serie A with a goal difference, ranking at the top of the league standings!

There is also a point to be noted here about the schedule of Serie A, that is, the schedule of the new Serie A season is still quite tight, starting from the opening of the league on August 29 to the end of May 14 next year, a total of 34 rounds of matches will be completed in eight and a half months. And that's not counting the Champions Cup, the Coppa Italia and the national team, and the half-month winter break.

It's normal for the fixtures to be so tight, after all, next June is the day of the European Championships, and if the league ends early, then the national team can have enough time to prepare and run-in.

After all, the Italian national team's "slow heat" in the tournament is well known to the world, and everyone knows that if they can't successfully snipe Italy in the group stage, then it will be difficult to stop the Apennine Army from advancing when they enter the knockout stage.

Therefore, what the national team coach Maldini Sr. and the Italian Football Federation need to do is to give the international players as much time as possible to run in, so as to shorten the warm-up time for the team to enter the state.

Straight into September, Fiorentina have been on the cusp of the Champions League and the league at the same time after a day of international breaks!

As Capello's successor after leaving Fiorentina, Heynckes' purpose is clear, that is, to lead the Purple Lily to sweep all battlefields and make European football resubmit to the light of Florence!

However, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. After leading the side to bloodless victories over Parma and Venezia, the feel-good Heynckes soon had his first winter in Fiorentina early this September.

On September 11, in order to prepare for the first match of the group stage of the Champions Cup, Heynckes hid a large number of main players, and Fiorentina played a 2-2 draw with promoted Maregina at the Granigio Stadium. The new signing Kaladze made consecutive mistakes in defense, especially the return pass to Toldo in the 70th minute of the game, which was tackled by the Reggina striker in the middle and scored a goal, which not only greatly damaged the team's morale, but also one of the main reasons why the Purple Lily was forced to draw by the opponent in this game.

Three days later, the Fiorentina squad travelled north to Sweden, where they played last season's Swedish league champions AIK Solna for a full 90 minutes before a goalless draw to end the Purple Lily's Champions League debut this season with a score of 0-0.

Consecutive draws by little-known teams are too humiliating for Fiorentina to play away from home, despite the reasons for playing away from home. As a result, as the coach of the team, Heynckes suffered his first crisis since taking charge of Fiorentina.

However, the crisis is mainly due to the media and fans, and Fiorentina has not put too much pressure on the German coach, saying that one or two draws are nothing, as long as the team can win a trophy at the end of the season.

So, despite Fiorentina's recent unsatisfactory performances in the Champions League and the league, Zhuang Mingge did not jump out to put pressure on the team at this time. Because he knows that this is the time, and now that the season has just begun, there are more than enough opportunities to recover the disadvantages caused by these two draws!

What's more, this is Heynckes' first time in charge of a Serie A team, and no matter how good he is, it will take some time to gradually adapt to the environment of Italian football, and he cannot be expected to integrate the team as quickly as local managers such as Ranieri and Capello.

In fact, it is thanks to the departure of Veron that Parma was able to beat Parma in the Italian Super Cup, otherwise Fiorentina, who are still in the run-in period, are likely to be beaten again by this opponent.

Therefore, for the current Zhuang Mingge, it is the right choice to be patient and be a bystander. Instead of being like Moratti, he hurriedly jumped out to express his opinion when he saw that the team's performance was not good, disturbing the morale of the army.
