Volume 1 Chapter 280 The Dragons Have No Leader High-profile and low-key

(I ask for a commuter pass, recommended)

Mondonico was not the first manager to step down, nor would he be the last, but his departure caused quite a stir in Italian football.

After the news came out, all parties speculated about the reason for Mondonico's resignation and commented on the gains and losses of Fiorentina's move.

"The top three are still out of class, is the Fiorentina management bold and aggressive, or is it brain-dead?"

La Repubblica used to be one of the most critical media outlets for Mondonico, believing that with Capello and Lippi, Fiorentina would still be at the top of the list, and even open up the gap for Juventus, but now, after Mondonico's dismissal, they have become Mondonico's supporters again.

"Fans complain about Mondonico, it's not because of Mondonico's poor results, but because they want Mondonico to play better, just like someone complains about the inflexibility of his hands and feet, but the doctor amputates his hands and feet, this approach makes people speechless, now there are almost ten games left before the end of the league, what kind of coach can make a huge difference in Fiorentina?"

La Repubblica ended its commentary with a question, but the attitude of the whole article was that Fiorentina had made a decision that was a bitter decision for those who loved it.

"Milan Sport" was shocked by Mondonico's dismissal, "δΈ¨This can't be true, right? Is it a follow-up to April Fool's Day? The dismissal of a top three coach can be said to be a phenomenon in Italian football, although Lukecy said that Mondonico resigned voluntarily, but this statement is obviously untenable, without the pressure of the club, Mondonico will resign if he hopes to win the Coppa Italia?

Bild, the sports media with the largest circulation in Europe, analyzed, "This may be a conflict between Mondonico and the club's upper echelons, otherwise it would not have been so sudden, and many irrational decisions were made in this way."

In fact, judging from the whole season, Mondonico's departure was not sudden, when Fiorentina just rushed to Serie A, Fiorentina had the idea of changing the coach, only because Prandelli had to take care of his sick wife, and the players supported Mondonico, Mondonico was able to renew his contract.

More than a month ago, Mondonico also had a crisis, but because of Fiorentina's successive victories, the dismissal crisis became a rumor again.

In a sense, Mondonico's dismissal is not necessarily a bad thing, because Fiorentina are going downhill, and a change of coach may be able to reverse the decline, if not if it can't, at best be the way it is now. ”

Spain's Le Hes newspaper looked at the incident from a larger perspective, arguing that it was the result of a power struggle in Italian football.

After Fiorentina was promoted to Serie A, the power structure of Italian football has undergone major changes, it was originally the Holy League of AC Milan and Juventus to dominate Italy, and now the emergence of the opposition league led by De La Valle has made the power struggle in Italian football white-hot, the previous election of the president of the league failed to pass three times, the only candidate Galliani could only be forced to concede, and the neutral Corolla was elected president of the league, but this is only the result of a compromise, and the struggle between the Holy League and the opposition league continues.

In order to reach the peak of power in Italian football, De La Valle needs his team to play better results, play more beautifully, and expand the influence of Florence and himself, so the mediocre Mondonico does not quite meet the political needs of De La Valle, the gorgeous and enterprising Prandelli is De La Valle's favorite, if it weren't for Mondonico's results are really not bad, I am afraid that he would have been fired by the fierce and decisive De La Valle.

And the news of Mondonico's dismissal spread to China, and the media performed more excitingly, but the protagonist became Chen Yu.

"Sports Weekly" believes that in addition to the fact that Mondonico's style of play is not in the eyes of the boss, there is also an important reason, that is, Chen Yu, who has scored 28 goals, has no way to bring Fiorentina a victory in the last six rounds, which is unacceptable to the Florentine management.

"Football Newspaper" said that Chen Yu and Mondonico actually have contradictions, Chen Yu has only scored two goals in the last six rounds, Mondonico's rigid tactics are undoubtedly the culprit, and if you want to liberate Chen Yu's attacking power, Mondonico's departure has become the best choice.

In addition to the media, many coaches in Italian football also have a sense of sadness.

Capello slammed the Fiorentina management, saying: "It's a stupid decision, a manager who led the promoted team to the top three was sacked, I don't know what the football philosophy of this club is? ”

Lippi, the head coach of the Italian national team, said: "Utilitarianism is the tradition of Italian football, winning is the last word, even if Fiorentina wants to take a different path, I don't think the coach should be a victim, at least Mondo should be in charge of this season." ”

Former Fiorentina coach Casinwa also expressed sympathy for Mondonico after the game, "I knew when I got out of class that Mondonico had such a day, De La Valle was not a good chairman, and if the results were not good, it would be over, but don't think that good results will have everything." I dare say that Prandelli's appointment will not be entirely satisfactory to Mr. President. ”

The majority of Fiorentina fans actually support Mondonico, only a few extreme critics of Mondonico, but the silent majority is the majority, but the extreme minority is the easiest to speak out, so this cup is created.

Now that Mondonico has been sacked, an extreme minority of fans have stopped talking, and most fans have spoken out to condemn the club's decision, leaving the Fiorentina management feeling a lot of pressure.

Mondonico's dismissal caused the media and fans to be hotly debated for three days, and then as the battle between Fiorentina and Juventus approached, the topic of Mondonico's dismissal gradually became a thing of the past.

For Fiorentina, the match against Juventus in the 30th round was undoubtedly a decisive one

In the standings, Juventus have more points than Fiorentina and AC Milan have 13 points more than Fiorentina. If he wins, he will not only be able to narrow the gap with Juventus to three games, but also be able to maintain or throw off the closer and closer pursuers.

However, for Fiorentina, whose head coach has just left class and is only replaced by a goalkeeper coach, the probability of beating the strong Juventus is extremely low.

Before the game, Fiorentina's interim coach Busso was also very low-key, he told reporters in his first training session, "The team is undoubtedly in a very delicate period, at this time it must be very difficult to play Juventus, three points is what we are very eager for, but one point can also be a goal, don't mention winning the championship, no matter which new coach is replaced, our hope of winning the championship is infinitely close to zero, because now the fate is not in the hands of Fiorentina, but in the hands of the opponent." ”

Juventus coach Capello is very pragmatic, he said that this game is just to win, the so-called revenge is meaningless, three points is the most critical, Milan two giants in the Champions League to fight for life and death, maybe there will be no time to take care of the league, three points may complete the AC Milan surpass.

Capello also reminded his players not to think that Fiorentina will play well with the change of coach, Fiorentina just changed the coach, everything else has not changed, the assistant coaches are only temporary replacements, it is impossible to make any changes to the team's style of play, so this is still the original Fiorentina.

Fabio Capello is sober, but Juventus' stars are arrogant, and now they have thrown Fiorentina out of the points, and Juventus' biggest desire is to avenge the first leg.

"Fiorentina is finished, but we don't sympathize with them, at the Stadio Frankie we will try to score as many goals as possible and let them know that the title is not something that everyone can get," said Ibrahimovic. ”

Former Ballon d'Or winner Nedved believes that this is the time to beat the water dogs, "Fiorentina are in a difficult situation, but they still have quality, we can't give them a chance, we must trample them under our feet." ”

Although Juventus Prince Piero is no longer in his original glory, his influence is still there, and reporters will never forget to interview him at this time.

Piero seemed to be dismissive of Fiorentina, completely forgetting the fact that he was beaten by Fiorentina at home, "We never saw Fiorentina as an opponent, our opponent was only AC Milan, their president likes to brag and now the ending is the result of their bragging. ”

In this match with Juventus, Chen Yu is still the focus, in the first leg Chen Yu scored two goals and led the team to defeat Juventus at the Alp Stadium, will he score again? Juventus' centre-backs Cannavaro and Thuram made their statements before the game.

Cannavaro said: "We won't give Chen Yu another chance, his power has been much less in the second half, and everyone knows how to deal with him." ”

"Chan is a great killer, but everybody has flaws, and he's no exception, and we're not going to give him more than three shots in this game," Thuram said. ”

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon was not satisfied with Chen Yu's twice, and he said on Turin TV before the game, "I want to talk to Chen Yu alone again, I want to save his one-on-one goal." Of course, apart from team wins, a clean sheet is my goal. ”

Fiorentina's flag and centerpiece, Chen Yu, acknowledges the difficulties faced, but is not prepared to bow to Juventus and admit defeat.

"I admit it. Now Juventus have a much better chance of beating us than we beat them, they have a lot of advantages, and we have just changed managers, we haven't been able to win before, we are demoralized, but that's not a reason to lose, I'm saying this just to tell our team-mates that we need to work harder.

Actually, apart from walking Mondo, we haven't changed at all, haven't we? I think we should have said goodbye to Mondo with a win, it was supposed to be a game for him. ”

In fact, after Mondonico's departure, the Fiorentina team was in a state of democratic co-governance, although Busso was appointed as interim head coach, but his authority was seriously insufficient, no players were willing to listen to him, other coaches, Danny was a peacemaker, physical coach Novi was silent, Chen Yu and Di Livio had a sharp increase in the team's voice. They are involved in the affairs of the team, big and small, as if they have become players and coaches.

Originally, the Fiorentina players were cautious in their words and deeds, but Chen Yu came out to fight, and the Fiorentina players also stood up one after another.

In addition to the 38-year-old Di Livio, Maresca, Zieneri and Mikoli are also half owned by Juventus, and they were all considered to be using Fiorentina as a springboard to return to Juventus, and now they are also the first to come out and express their allegiance to the current team.

Maresca said: "The captain is right, we are still the same team that beat Juventus, and if they dare to underestimate us, they will regret it. ”

Chiellini has been praised by Capello some time ago, many people think that Juventus can take him back, Chiellini said that he is willing to stay in Fiorentina, "I like the purple lily, I like the atmosphere here, I will not return to Juventus, I want to win the title for Fiorentina, this game, I will deal with Juventus' strikers like an enemy, I hope they are careful." ”

Mikoli, on the other hand, said, "If I can't score in the open game, I want to ask the captain for a penalty, and I want to hit Juventus in the face with a goal to prove that I was right to choose Fiorentina." ”

The war has not yet begun, saliva goes first, and the second season of the battle between the old woman and the purple lily is obviously not worse than the first season, and judging from the current situation, it seems that there are a little more highlights.
