Chapter 323: Three Battles!

Back in Milan, Tang Jue immediately held a secret meeting with Maldini, Rooney, Kaka and others, and the main content of their discussion was how to win the Serie A championship, of course, it could not affect the Champions League. The meeting lasted for a long time, the debate was very fierce, and Tang Jue took his eloquence to the extreme. It took three hours for everyone to reach a consensus.

The consensus is: the Serie A title is possible, and the goal of the new season is Serie A and the Champions League, two titles!

The results are in, but they have to be supported by Carlo Ancelotti and Gagliari. Without their support, this goal would not have been possible.

Everyone thinks that of the two people, as long as they can convince Ancelotti. As for the job of convincing Gagliari, that's Ancelotti's business. Then, it is necessary to identify a person and tell Ancelotti the results of tonight's discussion, and the meeting unanimously decided to let Tang Jue go to Ancelotti to talk.

Tang Jue looked at Maldini with some anger and said, "Damn, you're the captain, I'm not, why should I talk to the coach?" ”

Ronnie looked at Maldini and smiled, "Ignore him, he did it." He doesn't say it, forget it. ”

Kaka looked at Tang Jue's angry expression and felt very relieved, so he said happily: "Maldini, convincing people is what Tang is best at. You see, weren't we fooled by him tonight? So, it was most appropriate for him to go. ”

Everyone laughed happily, yes, we had a good conversation tonight, they were happy. If the plan can be implemented smoothly, then they will create a miracle in the history of football. Tang Jue looked at everyone. Said sadly: "You damn guys. Okay, I'll go and say, but I have a request. ”

Maldini smiled and asked, "What requirements?" ”

"If I convince the coach, each of you will have to invite me to a drink!"

Ronnie smiled and said, "No problem! We invite you to drink and you pay the bills! ”

The crowd laughed again!

……

September 6 at 8 p.m., Milan Club Manager's Office.

Ancelotti looked at Tang Jue and said helplessly: "Don, you can't convince me, so why bother." The reality is that with a minus fifteen points, no one is going crazy enough to compete for the Serie A title. It's an impossible goal. ”

"Let's be realistic. If you are ambitious. It should be placed on top of the Champions League and the Coppa Italia. You see, defending the Champions League, isn't it a very attractive thing to do? ”

Tang Jue shook his head and said: "Defending the Champions League is indeed a very attractive thing, and I have never denied it. But the Serie A champions. For me. There is also a huge appeal. Think about it in the case of minus fifteen. What a great thing to win the Serie A title again. The thought of this makes my blood boil! ”

Ancelotti said helplessly: "Okay. As long as you convince me tonight, I will agree with you and convince Gagliari. ”

After speaking, Ancelotti hugged his arms and looked at Tang Jue with interest.

Tang Jue took out two pieces of paper from his body and put them on the table, Ancelotti looked down, these two pieces of paper were this season's Serie A schedule and Champions League schedule.

Tang Jue pointed to the Serie A schedule and said: "Serie A starts on September 10, we have four games in September, five games in October, and the last game in October is against Inter. If we can narrow the gap between the two teams to within 10 points in the first eight games, then as long as we beat Inter, the difference will be in single digits! ”

Ancelotti thought for a while, pursed his mouth, shook his head and said, "Difficult! Eight games to recover five points, difficult! Because we have three more Champions League games in September. ”

Tang Jue pondered for a moment and then said, "Okay, what you said makes sense. Taking a step back and saying that we were in September, October, plus the game against Inter, we were able to close the gap to single digits, I think it's still possible. ”

Carlo Ancelotti didn't say anything, and Don continued to peddle his stuff: "Next, November, December, we have nine games, if we close the gap to five points. Well, we have a chance for the second half of the season! ”

After the nineteenth round of Serie A, it entered the winter break. Tang Jue meant to narrow the points gap to five points before the winter break, which was obviously a very bold idea. If Milan ditch the Champions League and focus on Serie A, it is still possible.

Carlo Ancelotti shook his head and said: "We have three Champions League games to play in November and December. In addition, many players in the team have to play in the European Championship qualifiers, and Ronnie has to play in the Copa America. Human energy is limited, and what you say is too idealistic. ”

Tang Jue felt that what he said was too rough, so he started from the beginning: "Coach, let's look at the problem this way, before the winter break, the Champions League group stage will be played, a total of six games. According to past experience, as long as you get about 10 points, you can qualify. ”

Tang Jue pointed to the Champions League schedule and said: "In the first three games, if we score nine points, we can basically determine the group qualification." Then we can focus all our energy on Serie A. ”

Ancelotti followed Tang Jue's fingers and looked at the names of Milan's three opponents in the group stage - AEK Athens, Anderlecht, and Lille. To be honest, Milan drew a good draw, there were no strong opponents in the group stage, and the first three games, with three consecutive wins, are still assured.

Ancelotti's brow furrowed and loosened, loosened and furrowed. Obviously, his heart began to struggle, and Tang Jue was right. Before the winter break, the Champions League will not consume too much energy, and if you can qualify from the group early, then you can chase points like crazy in Serie A.

Tang Jue looked up at Ancelotti and said: "As for the European Cup qualifiers and the Copa America qualifiers, we are playing, and the players of Inter Milan are also playing. ”

Ancelotti nodded, and Tang Jue continued: "From Inter's point of view, they must think that the Serie A title is in the bag, and they will put a lot of energy into the Champions League. Over the years, their results in the Champions League have been mediocre. Doesn't Moratti want to win a Champions League trophy? ”

Tang Jue pointed to Inter's group and said: "Look at Inter's group opponents, Bayern, Sparta Moscow, and Sporting Lisbon. They have to qualify from the group. It's going to take a lot of work. So it's quite possible that we'll be able to narrow down the points to single digits in September and October. ”

Tang Jue felt that the idea of what he said now was relatively clear, first starting with the analysis of the situation in Milan, and then analyzing the situation of Inter. Milan's Champions League group stage opponents are a little weaker than Inter's, and if Milan can confirm their group qualification early, then they can focus on Serie A.

At this time, Inter Milan is still working hard to qualify for the Champions League group. Milan can use this time to chase points like crazy.

Seeing that Ancelotti was a little tempted, Tang Jue continued: "I have communicated with Ronnie, Kaka, Maldini and others, and they all think that it is still possible to achieve a double harvest in Serie A and the Champions League!" ”

Carlo Ancelotti began to take a closer look at the two fixtures. Don didn't bother him. After a long time. Ancelotti raised his head, closed his eyes, and said lightly: "It's possible!" ”

Tang Jue was overjoyed in his heart and was about to speak. Carlo Ancelotti opened his eyes and looked at him and said: "It's difficult to narrow down the points to five before the winter break. Tang Jue's face suddenly became a little difficult to look at. Ancelotti continued: "But. It's possible! ”

After saying that, Ancelotti laughed because of Tang Jue's expression. Let him think this child is too cute. Tang Jue also laughed, after all, he was a victory in the first battle. Both of them tacitly agreed not to talk about the Club World Cup, and perhaps in their eyes, the Club World Cup is not important at all.

Everyone knows that after the Champions League enters the knockout round, it is extremely difficult. If you want to achieve results in the Champions League, you have to give it your all, and then it will inevitably affect the results in the domestic league.

"So, go ahead and talk about your plans." Carlo Ancelotti said: "After the winter break, what is it? ”

Tang Jue pointed to the Serie A schedule and said: "In the twenty-seventh round, we will play Inter again." Before that, due to the Champions League, we couldn't chase the points like crazy, and we could only try not to let Inter widen the gap in points. ”

"Twenty-seven rounds are a life-and-death battle for us, and if we beat them, we will close the gap to one. At that point, the pressure is on Inter and maybe they will make mistakes. That's our chance! ”

Carlo Ancelotti looked at the Serie A schedule and looked at March 11. If Milan can chase points like crazy before the winter break, then that day will be the day when the Serie A title will be decided!

With a long exhale, Ancelotti looked at the white ceiling and said, "Maybe you have a point." ”

Tang Jue put his heart down and said: "The last eight rounds of the game are the critical period for us to overtake the points. I think if we can achieve what we have in front of us, how high the morale of the team will be at that time. We'll be in high spirits to overtake the score and win the lost Scudetto! ”

According to the second-instance verdict of the Italian Football Federation, Milan's Serie A title last season was revoked. It was quite painful for Milan. In their opinion, there is nothing wrong with last season's championship.

Ancelotti's eyes suddenly brightened, and his waist straightened!

Tang Jue knew that he was about to succeed, so he said: "Coach, we will divide this season's competition into three stages, each stage, we call it a battle. The first campaign is in September and October, and our goal is to qualify for the Champions League group ahead of schedule and close the gap on the Serie A points to two games, or under six points. ”

"The second campaign is between November and March, and our goal is to narrow down the Serie A points to one point, that is, to three points, and in addition, to continue in the knockout stages of the Champions League."

"The third campaign will run from mid-March until the end of the season. This is the final stage of the three major battles, and it is also the most important and difficult stage. Our goal is to win Serie A and the Champions League! ”

Ancelotti's eyes brightened!

The room fell silent, and Ancelotti pulled out a lighter and lit a cigarette. After a few moments, the room was filled with smoke because he was smoking too fast!

"Three major battles?" Ancelotti said to himself: "Very apt! ”

Ancelotti pressed the cigarette into the ashtray, raised his head and looked at Tang Jue and said, "If you can achieve the goal of the first battle, I will support you!" ”

A smile crawled out of the corner of Tang Jue's eyebrows, and tonight's goal was finally achieved. How could a famous coach like Carlo Ancelotti easily agree to something, he must determine the direction according to the development of things.

"If the second battle can be realized, I can consider giving up the Coppa Italia and concentrating on Serie A and the Champions League!"

Ancelotti said in the end: "The goal is great, just wait and suffer!" (To be continued......)
