"Tony, what do you think are the odds of us winning this game?" Just as the players from both sides walked out of the tunnel and began to put on a show on the pitch under the leadership of their respective captains, Karin asked in the VIP box at Frankie Stadium.

"If the team can play normally, it shouldn't be a problem to win the current Barcelona team." Zhuang Mingge thought for a while, replied, and said, "I don't know if Karin has noticed, although Barcelona's record this season is still very good, the contradictions within their team have gradually been revealed." ”

Hearing Zhuang Mingge's analysis of the problem of Barcelona's zài, Karin immediately put on a very interested look and began to be a qualified listener seriously. After all, whenever it comes to football-related topics, Zhuang Mingge is the most serious.

There's a saying that men are most attractive when they're serious, and Karin thinks so.

"First of all, there's the question of Rivaldo himself. After becoming Mr. Two, the Brazilian's mentality has changed, from being able to fully obey Louis van Gaal's tactical arrangements as a left winger, and instead demanding more attacking freedom, such as moving to the middle of the pitch in place of Luis Enrique, who has been on the rise in injuries this season and has been in a dip in form. And this request of his is exactly what Van Gaal, who likes to control everything in the palm of his hand, cannot allow. ”

Karin nodded knowingly, she had also heard a little about Van Gaal's coaching style, the Dutch coach's approach to team management and Manchester United's Ferguson and the previous Sacchi had a fight, both of which are the kind of iron-blooded coaches who do not allow a second voice in the team. Van Gaal's approach usually ends up in two ways: at best, people will praise him for being stubborn, and at worst, he will be stubborn and self-righteous!

Rivaldo's demands weren't too much, and with his current ability, it would be too condescending to confine the talented Brazilian to a tight left flank. If Van Galken had put more effort into the communication of individual players, or found a way to take advantage of Rivaldo's and Enrique's characteristics of their wide range of activities and wide attacking range, and organically integrated them, then he would not have completely fallen out with Rivaldo, making him feel like a life-and-death enemy.

"The other problem lies with Louis van Gaal himself, the Dutchman is very good at coaching, and that's true. However, he is too fond of bringing in the same lineage he had when he was at Ajax and his fellow Dutchman. Speaking of this, Zhuang Mingge paused, and then continued to evaluate Van Gaal, "If these players introduced by Van Gaal can effectively improve the strength of the team, then other players and Barcelona fans will not say anything about it." But looking at the people Van Gaal has bought over the years, only Kluivert, Cocu and Frank de Boer are worth the money. Hesp isn't much better than Baia in terms of ability, and the substitutes of Ronald de Boer, Zenden, Bogard and Litmanen who receive higher salaries than the main team don't make much of a difference? ”

'It's true that coach Louis van Gaal has gone a bit too far on that. Karin nodded and said approvingly, "Especially that Litmanen, although he is indeed a good player, he has never played in the big four leagues, he can actually sign a contract with an annual salary of 5 million US dollars!" It's just crazy! ”

As a result of Van Gaal's overly biased approach, Barcelona is now showing faint signs of civil unrest. Barcelona fans are unhappy with Van Gaal's reuse of the Dutch gang and his neglect of homegrown players produced by La Masia's academy; And within the team, Rivaldo and Figo and others are also unhappy with Van Gaal's preference for his old department at Ajax - you must know that the two of them, as the absolute main force of Barcelona to win two consecutive league titles, still only receive an annual salary of three million US dollars!

A rookie substitute is paid more than the main player, and it would be hell if there was no chaos within Barcelona.

"I really don't know what those high-level officials of Barcelona think, giving Litemanen such a high salary and letting him play as a substitute......" Karin said and sighed, she also felt a little powerless about Barcelona's strange behavior,"

Just when Karin was puzzled by the thoughts of the Barcelona management, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the second leg of the Champions Cup between Fiorentina and Barcelona is now officially begins!

The course of the game was not much different from Zhuang Mingge's expectations, although Barcelona, who had been given the right to kick off, launched a fierce attack on the door of Fiorentina under the command of Pep Guardiola, but under the control of the likes of Makelele and Gattuso, the attack of the Catalan army appeared to have little effect.

Rivaldo, who was forcibly confined to the left by Van Gaal, lost his temper, and he fell into a state of solitude and Figo, who temporarily moved to the middle, was very unpopular; Cenden on the right is just a pure winger, and his style of under-crossing is a bit incompatible with Barcelona's passing system, because although Kluivert is an excellent center forward, his strength lies in his outstanding instant explosiveness and awareness of making the ball and coordination, and grabbing points in front of goal is his weakness; Figo, who has moved to the middle of the pitch on a temporary basis, is clearly not yet comfortable with this role, with the Portuguese's dribbling and pacing unrivalled and his long-range shots being a great attacking weapon, but he is not a good midfield commander and struggles to string up team-mates up front such as Rivaldo and Zenden.

Therefore, although Barcelona is playing against Fiorentina from the field, and the away team is quite dominant in the game, fans with a little sense can see that Rivaldo, Cendon and Figo are almost all fighting separately with their excellent individual ability, and they are almost completely connected when attacking!

And this situation is exactly what the Fiorentina players are most happy to see, although Figo and Rivaldo are very strong in their individual ability, and no defender can guarantee that they can stare each other in a one-on-one situation, but the current situation is that Rivaldo (or Figo) is alone with the ball to attack their entire backline, and the other players are on the sidelines as onlookers instead of going to help, so the situation is completely different.

You know, even the aliens who are considered to be the most capable of individuals dare not say that they can pick out an entire Italian reinforced concrete defense line under normal conditions, and it is a strengthened version of the top defenders like Nesta and Stam, let alone Rivaldo and Figo?

Unless Rivaldo can defy the odds again in this game and be able to kick a curling ball straight into the corner of the goal with a casual kick under the close defence of Claude Makelele like they did in the first leg, their current move is tantamount to self-defeat!
