U8 Update Fastest Reading Network When the time entered July, several transfers of Monaco were also completed.

Abidal went to Lyon and Panucci returned to Serie A. Adebayo of Metz and McCone of Cruzeiro in Brazil, and Yaya Toure of Belgium Bwarren have all been signed by Monaco. At the same time, Monaco also officially offered Real Madrid to sign Morientes on loan. Although Morientes does not really want to leave Real Madrid on loan, because his transfer issue is not properly negotiated and there is no place in Real Madrid, the way of loan is not completely unacceptable for him.

On the one hand, there are talks about trades, and on the other hand, the Monaco players have returned to the team, and the team has begun to try to re-form, and the biggest change is that McCone has become the main right-back.

Deschamps was still going to see who would be more suitable for the position after McCone arrived. But after watching McCone play, Deschamps immediately decided on the main right-back.

"Three million...... I've found a treasure. ”

Didier Deschamps was pleased with McConn's performance, but when the team gathered and trained again, Zhao Yaning was a little overwhelmed. He has adapted to the previous style of play of Panucci, and suddenly replaced a person, this change made Zhao Yaning have a great feeling of discomfort, he played on the right side, in front of McConn, after the full-back substitution, he suddenly felt that his style of play was suddenly a lot different compared with before.

"I can't say the specifics, but I feel that the defense behind me doesn't seem to be as good as before, and I don't dare to make too many strong breakthroughs, for fear of causing defensive mistakes by the players behind me. And there seems to be some problems with the movement in the attack, and when you play, the running space changes a lot......"

If there is something you don't understand, ask it, this is the best way Zhao Yaning can think of, and for his question, Coach Petit immediately gave him the answer, "That's because you used to play as a winger, and it is more suitable for you to have a defensive defender behind you." And now you're going to play as a full-back, because the full-backs behind you are attacking full-backs, so you need to play a little bit more securely. You need to be more involved in defence and midfield to be able to meet the needs of the team. ”

Petit's idea was not implemented, and after learning about Zhao Yaning's problem, Deschamps immediately made a change and moved Zhao Yaning to the middle.

'I want you to play in the middle, but don't stick to the midfielder position. When Deschamps and Zhao Yaning explained, they still didn't use the word Yingfeng, after all, this word is too easy to make young people flutter, "You can choose your own running position appropriately, you can insert more, and you can have more shèmen." After all, Dado is not as dangerous as Chris at the back alone, and you need to use more attacks to create enough chances for him. It's a bit harder to play in the middle and I hope you get used to it as soon as possible. ”

Patit still has some doubts about Deschamps arranging Zhao Yaning to play this position. But Deschamps has nothing to say about such an arrangement. McCone's offensive and defensive prowess on the flanks is more than enough to meet the needs of the team's right flank. It's a bit of a waste for two people with the same ball ability to put on the same side road, but it is better to let Jiuli go to the side to connect, and let Zhao Yaning go to the middle to impact the opponent's defense.

Zhao Yaning himself was very satisfied with this arrangement, Zhao Yaning had already jumped into the test, and naturally agreed to it, and when he trained, his enthusiasm for investment was also higher.

Compared to Mai Conn and Zhao Yaning's happiness, Yaya Toure was a little depressed. Although he was also considered good by Deschamps, his defense was too frizzy, and Deschamps did not like the problem of too strong offensive mentality, so he still sat on the bench, hoping that he could adjust his mentality before playing. This arrangement made Yaya Toure a little unhappy.

By mid-July, Zhao Yaning's technical training had also received good results. His short passes have risen to 15, long balls and corners to 14, shèmen to 12 and penalties to 12.

Except for the improvement of the long pass, which did not meet his plan, the improvement in other areas has achieved the desired effect. Although Zhao Yaning was dissatisfied with such a training result, he could reluctantly accept it.

As the days went by, Didier Deschamps also brought new news to the team. This news is still very necessary for the team, because there is indeed a lot of confusion in the format of this season, and the upper echelons of the team now need to increase management.

Last season, Ligue 1 was just restructured, and this season, it is the European Champions Cup that has been restructured. The Champions League was restructured in the 03-04 season, and this time the restructuring changed the previous two rounds of the group stage into one round, and changed the original style of playing by relying on the second round of the group stage to compete for the quarterfinals into 16 teams and directly started to fight each other. This greatly shortens the length and pressure of the game, so that the giants have reduced a lot of pressure and can deal with multi-front battles more calmly. But this approach has also made the Champions League more competitive, originally two rounds of the group stage, the strongest team must have qualified, but now, the second round of the group stage has become a knockout round, and the game is more variable.

But even so, the highest odds in the Champions League are still Real Madrid, which have won the Champions League three times in the past six years. After all, this is 2004, and Real Madrid has always won the championship in even-numbered years.

This odds have been hotly discussed by the Monaco players for a while. Monaco is a gambling city, and the odds of the Champions League are just an important topic for the players here, but there are few players who are really willing to believe in these things.

"It's understandable that Real Madrid is first, Manchester United is second, Chelsea is third? How much is this more than who spends money? Gyuli scoffed at the odds, "And Juventus is not controversial about fourth, why are Arsenal's odds higher than Milan's?" Have they played decent European games in recent years? And Milan's appearance last year, how can there be weaknesses at all? ”

"And our odds aren't as high as Stuttgart, isn't it too embarrassing?"

Monaco is 10th in Champions League odds, with Bayern, Laco and Stuttgart all ahead of Monaco. Behind them are Lyon and Porto, tied for 11th place.

Among the top nine teams, there are two teams each in Serie A, La Liga and Bundesliga, and three teams in the Premier League. And this is basically the top few of the four major leagues, of course, the odds of La Liga runner-up Real Sociedad and Serie A runner-up Inter Milan are not high, after all, Real Sociedad is playing the Champions League for the first time, and Inter Milan's performance over the years has been too bad. And Newcastle is the same, their European competition is not favored.

Monaco's Champions League odds are 28, meaning they are thought to have less than a 4% chance of winning, while Real Madrid are 3.3, meaning they have a 27% chance of winning. Lyon, on the other hand, are worse than Monaco, with their chances of winning the title less than 3%, the same as Porto's side in the Portuguese Super League.

It's a bit frustrating, but the players don't take him to heart.

This stuff has too much moisture. For example, Milan, although they were the European champions last season, were also considered to have a low chance of defending their title because the final victory over Juventus was by way of penalty kicks, and because Juventus' core Nedved was not present. And Real Madrid last season because it was their centennial celebration, invested too much effort in the league, and encountered Nedved's excellent performance before losing to Juventus, many people regard Real Madrid's failure as an accident, thinking that Real Madrid can still rely on their superstars to win the Champions League this year, therefore, they are also considered by many to be the favorites to win the championship this year.

Other teams, such as Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal, the top three in the Premier League, are somewhat overrated. Arsenal's Champions League record in recent years is actually not very good, and their ability to achieve such a high ranking has nothing to do with the attraction of their artistic football. Manchester United, on the other hand, have always been in a high ranking, but considering that they are in a period of transition, this ranking really doesn't say much. Not to mention Chelsea, who, whoever says it, thinks their odds for third place in Europe are the inevitable result of spending 120 million euros – they are too rich.

As for the rest of them, Deportivo La Coruna's European results have been very good over the years, and naturally the ranking will be very high, although Bayern Munich has said goodbye to the era of green Hollywood, but they rely on the support of Ballack, and have not yet fully shown signs of decay, and naturally they are also supporting their reputation. The other team in the Bundesliga, Stuttgart, has also attracted a lot of attention, and it is because of the special xing of their youth army that it is eye-catching.

In fact, Monaco is not convinced, and there are even more unconvinced than Monaco, such as Inter Milan, who were still in the Champions League semi-finals and the league runner-up a year ago, but because they fired Cooper, the team underwent a big change, and their ranking is not even as high as Monaco.

Not to mention teams like Liverpool and Barcelona, they can't enter the Champions League yet.

But there is such a thing as odds, after all, it is not believable. Football matters, it is not strong or weak at all to determine the winner or loser, otherwise, how did Bayern, which was defeated by Manchester United in 99 and Real Madrid in 00, lose?

After everyone discussed it, they put it aside and didn't care about it anymore. The matter of football matches, do their best, obey the destiny of God, until the last moment, who dares to assert success or failure?

And soon, a new arrangement for Ligue 1 also came out.

"The time for our first game of the season has been set, at the end of the month, on July 26, against Auxerre's French Super Cup."

The French Super Cup is the match between the league winner and the Champions League, the league winner last season was Monaco, and the French Cup winner was Auxerre, these two teams have to play a match. The last French Super Cup was played on May 27, at that time, Ligue 1 had not yet been restructured, and it was still 34 rounds of the league, so it was natural to play like that. However, Ligue 1 was just restructured last season, so when the French Super Cup should be played after the restructuring also needs to be changed, and Ligue 1 moved this game from the end of the season to the beginning of next season, and finally decided to play on July 27.

This allows Monaco to start the official match a week earlier than the other teams, and the task is a little heavier.

"Because we started playing at the end of July, we only played one friendly this year. Anyway, the French Super Cup is also a friendly in a sense, just multiple cups. The good news, though, is that we've already contacted the people for the friendlies. Didier Deschamps looked at the rest of the team, "The strongest team in Europe." ”

"Real Madrid?" Gyuri asked rhetorically.

"Of course not, I'm talking about the strongest team, not the most famous team." Deschamps shook his head, "Can you guess where it is?" ”

"Milan." Zhao Yaning opened his mouth, "It's Milan." ”

"That's right." Deschamps nodded, "It's Milan, our opponent this offseason is AC Milan." ”
