Chinese Among these teams in the Champions League, the weakest may be Villarreal. The top eight teams this time are three from Serie A, two from La Liga, two from England and one from Ligue 1. Among these teams, in fact, the most stable in the Champions League, in addition to Milan, Juventus and Arsenal, is Lyon in Ligue 1. Although Lyon has repeatedly stopped in the quarterfinals and the round of 16, it is still much more stable than Liverpool and Barcelona, who were not even stable in the previous two years in terms of Champions League qualification. It's just that the stable weak brigade really doesn't have much to look forward to.

And Inter Milan, in a sense, is about the same as Lyon, or even worse. They have been the same in the past few years, there is a drama in the knockout round, but there is no way to win the Champions League. Everyone is the same, they are studying with the prince.

And Barcelona and Liverpool have just risen in the past two years, although the time is short, they do have championship competitiveness. Speaking of which, they are the most likely to win the championship.

Only Villarreal reached the quarterfinals, which can be said to be an upset all the way.

During the draw, Arsenal drew Juventus – and they will face their old captain Patrick Vieira again. And Barcelona drew Inter Milan - the difference in the strength of these two teams is very different, Barcelona has now shouted out the dream second team, and Inter Milan, in the home game in February, because of the referee's factor, after losing to Juventus for no reason, fans began to anger the coach again, and the slogan they are now shouting is 'Mancini get out', and Barcelona's momentum is completely different, the gap between the two teams is very large. Milan drew Lyon - in fact, in the current quarterfinals, except for Barcelona and Liverpool, Milan is a bully to everyone. In comparison, Lyon is still one of the better ones. Although they don't have any outstanding big names, but after all, they have a very good whole, and Lyon's domestic competition is also unusually easy, their Champions League games can even be said to be one-line, and their attention to the Champions League is also very large, Milan still has some difficulty.

And Liverpool drew Villarreal - this draw can be said to be extremely lucky.

And when he met them, Zhao Yaning's biggest problem was only one.

"How strong are they?"

The team in La Liga, the most dazzling in recent years, and also stable among the strong teams, is naturally only Real Madrid. And Barcelona is just rising now, but with the presence of Xiao Luo, it is naturally radiant. But apart from them, what else is there in La Liga?

Grade Laco? Or the Valencia of the two leagues? At the turn of the century, they were key to earning points for La Liga, but now, after all, those are in the past. This season, Liverpool and Real Betis have played, and their strength is not very good, and Villarreal's strength is unknown.

"All I know about them is Riquelme. He's the heart of the Argentine national team, right? But more, I don't know. ”

"You're trying to say that the rumors about him aren't very good, right?" Milito spoke next to him, he was the only Argentina here, Zhao Yaning refused to say, naturally because of him, "What have you heard?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just some rumors that he can't play the core of the big club or something......"

In fact, there are a lot of rumors. But Zhao Yaning has always been skeptical. He has watched the game in Argentina, and now Argentina is called the 584th chapter of the world, although Riquelme is slow, but Zhao Yaning really doesn't think he is bad.

"His strength is still quite outstanding." In this regard, Morientes has his own opinion on him, "Real Madrid was kicked by him alone that year and lost the Club World Cup - this can be regarded as his battle for fame." He has weaknesses, but that doesn't mean he's bad. Moreover, don't say that he is not suitable for a wealthy family, in fact, it is better to say that he has no chance. ”

If you think about it, there is really nothing wrong with that. Saying that he is not suitable for a big club actually ignores a problem: Riquelme has only played for one big club in his life, and that is Barcelona. And the reason why he was expelled by Barcelona was not because of his poor results in leading the team - in fact, his year at Barcelona was no worse than Zidane, who had just arrived at Real Madrid. After all, the core of the midfield has a process of adapting to integration, especially if he has obvious shortcomings, it is even more necessary to cover up his shortcomings tactically, and he did not play out, so it cannot be said that it is all his problem. Moreover, the reason why he was expelled, to put it bluntly, is not the reason why he didn't play well enough: that year, it was Laporta who took office, and when the president was replaced, it was naturally the replacement of the old and the new, and the reinforcements of the old chairman were also cleaned up. La Liga likes to make this kind of thing, Real Madrid is like this, and Barcelona is the same.

And there is another problem with him: he is a striker, a playmaker, a boss on the pitch. It's impossible for a player like him to accept being a substitute or acting for others. Moreover, his character can't accept that he will appear on the field Chapter 584 No matter how fast he kicks, he won't care. But Riquelme's slowness is not just a degree. A lot of the time, he reacts, but he always has to be slower than anyone else – and this season against Real Madrid, he made a big mistake: when Beckham passed the ball, he reached out to intercept it, but he reacted and was a step too slow. Beckham's ball had already been passed out, and his foot had just arrived, kicking Beckham to the ground.

Such a player with distinctive characteristics is, after all, easy to deal with.

"Fortunately, this team is his own team, so it is not difficult to deal with it." Zhao Yaning thought for a moment before sighing.

"A one-man team? Who told you that? Alonso asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it?"

"To put it simply, what is the quality of the guys: their main midfielder is Senna - in the national team, the two of us were partners, but if you play as a single midfielder, then I guess I will play him as a substitute. How strong is he? You can imagine what it would be like to be a big one. Alonso's tone was a bit like a scare, but he was still very serious, "You can't ignore this kind of back, right?" ”

Zhao Yaning nodded.

'Up front, it's Forlan. It was Forlan who didn't play at Manchester United and was sold to La Liga. He slapped Manchester United hard last season, the European Golden Boot, and Thierry Henry's alongside the accolade, how about this honor? To be honest, I don't think Moreau and Diego are stronger than him. ”

It was clear that Alonso was trying to give his players a warning, but neither Milito nor Morientes refuted his words. If nothing else, at least Senna has only been in the Spanish national team for less than a month, and he played a double midfielder, who knows who will be the substitute between him and Alonso?

However, they are not easy to refute Alonso's statement that Forlan's honor is stronger. After all, the European Golden Boot Award is not a trivial matter, although Forlan has always been accused of having a problem with prodigal shooting in La Liga, but whether it is a prodigal shot or not, it is not easy to score so many goals.

"And then there's Cazorla, a Spanish genius in midfield. And Sorin, the Argentine international. Valencia, Ecuadorian genius. Their strength is not weak at all, so don't take it lightly. ”

It turns out that there must be a lot of strongmen in their team...... Zhao Yaning admits that he does know a little less about them. After all, he doesn't pay enough attention to anything other than the UK.

"Joey, the midfielders are varied. Some of the forwards, while dispatching the whole team, tried their best to hide. For example, Zizou, when he is on the field, the stats are never very good, but when you look at him when he is not there, the team loses. Don't watch his game. I don't know how great his role is. And some players, when they are on the field, they must be radiant, and no matter how good the teammates around them are, they have to be more than his flickering light and can't open their eyes, and Riquelme is the latter. Villarreal are a formidable opponent and definitely not something to be taken lightly. ”

Zhao Yaning nodded, he had never paid attention to Villarreal, and when he heard others say that this was Riquelme's team, he regarded it as a team with only Riquelme. But at this time, Zhao Yaning realized that Riquelme's team is actually very strong, and every link will not be worse than others. It's just that in their team, there is only one core, a will to direct their operation, and that will is Riquelme.

Then let me see how powerful this wonderful Mr. Riquelme really is. Cat flutter Chinese
