The strongest winger

Chapter 1018 The Revelation of "Confidential Newspaper"
After the end of the 2010-2011 season in Barcelona, ​​the senior management had a meeting to study whether the head coach should be replaced to replace Guardiola, but what is unexpected is that [-]% of the senior management support Guardiola to stay in office.

So Guardiola unexpectedly continued to lead Barcelona in the 2011-2012 season, and he also issued a military order with the club.

If he fails to lead Barcelona to the Champions League this season, he will take the blame and resign.

In this regard, many Barcelona fans who supported Guardiola were very happy, and the direct descendants of La Masia who worked with him for three seasons were also very happy.

However, most mainstream European media have concluded that it is only a matter of time before Guardiola leaves Barcelona, ​​because as long as Valencia has a healthy Aiello, he will never recover...

In fact, the media's speculation is very accurate. No matter how Barcelona and Real Madrid increase their investment and increase their heavy signings, there is still no way to effectively compete with Valencia.

In the first round of the 2011 Spanish Super Cup at the Mestalla Stadium, Barcelona presented the strongest lineup, goalkeeper Valdes, four defenders are Baynes, Pique, Mertesacker and Alves, midfielders are Harvey, Iniesta and Busquets, forwards are Cesc Fabregas, Messi and Pedro.

The strongest lineup in Valencia is goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei, the four defenders are Azpilicueta, Godin, Varane and van der Weil, the midfielders are Pirlo, Modric and James Rodriguez, and the forwards are Aiello, Cavani and David Silva.

Compared with last season's lineup, Valencia's midfield interception ability has dropped a lot, but after the game started, fans saw Valencia's strong midfield control in the new season. At the Mestalla Stadium, Barcelona had no way to occupy any advantage at all. Almost the entire game was suppressed by Valencia, which was in stark contrast to last season's Champions League final.

So it's no surprise that Valencia beat Barcelona 4-1 at home in the first leg of the Copa del Rey...

It is worth mentioning that the teenager Varane, who represented Valencia for the first time, scored twice with a header, which became a highlight of the game.

Regarding this score, the Catalan media believes that there is a lot of water. This game is just the first game before the start of the new season for Barcelona. The state has not yet been played. They believe that when they return to Camp Nou in the second round, Barcelona will definitely find the best state, so as to achieve a home victory over Valencia and win the Spanish Super Cup!

But it turns out that Barcelona's state is not bad, but Valencia's overall combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

一个礼拜后在诺坎普进行的西班牙国王杯次回合，巴伦西亚在队长艾洛的带领之下，客场3：1完胜巴塞罗那，以总比分7：2夺得2011-2012赛季的第一座冠军奖杯。

Four days later, the European Super Cup was staged at the Stade Louis II in Monaco. Valencia continued to show its super combat effectiveness, defeating Porto, the champion of the Europa League in the 4-0 season, 2010-2011 without bloodshed.

The team swept Barcelona consecutively at the end of August, and Porto won the Spanish Super Cup and the UEFA Super Cup, allowing Valencia fans to see the club achieve six crowns across seasons.

Although there are still three months before the Club World Cup, most fans believe that it is only a matter of time before Valencia wins the championship, because the 2011 Copa Libertadores champion Santos has no way to pose a threat to Valencia...

※※※

In fact, no team poses a threat to Valencia ahead of the Club World Cup in December.

Valencia achieved an astonishing record of 57 wins and [-] draw in the [-] rounds of the league before participating in the Club World Cup, increasing their unbeaten streak to [-] games.

The UEFA Champions League also won four consecutive victories early in the six group matches, qualifying for early promotion.

Become the most feared team in Europe.

It is worth mentioning that after Barcelona lost 2:4 at home to Valencia in the fourth round of La Liga, the Barcelona executives announced that they had reached an agreement with Guardiola to relieve Barcelona from the post of head coach, and his assistant Vilanova would lead the team until a suitable head coach was found.

However, only half a month later, the Spanish "Confidential" suddenly broke the news that Guardiola had reached an agreement with the Chinese XX Football Association. The two parties signed a three-year contract with an annual salary of 500 million euros.

At the beginning, everyone thought it was a joke, because Guardiola announced that he would take a year off after resigning as the head coach of Barcelona, ​​but it has only been half a month, how could it be possible to sign a contract with the Chinese XX Football Association and become the head coach of the Chinese national team?
Taking a step back, even if Guardiola has the idea of ​​resuming the coaching of the team, he may not choose the national team. You must know that being the head coach of the national team is different from the head coach of the club...

In addition, the fundamental reason why Guardiola terminated the contract with the Barcelona club was that Valencia, which owns Aiello, lost seven games in a row, so it stands to reason that Guardiola would not cooperate with Aiello in the Chinese national team.

But... Two days later, the Chinese XX Football Association announced on its official website that Guardiola will be the head coach of the Chinese national team for the next three years.

The official statement was issued, and everyone woke up like a dream.

What’s interesting is that Guardiola slapped the face and questioned the media when he was interviewed by the Spanish newspaper El País: “It is a challenge to be able to coach the Chinese national team, because this team has risen very fast under the leadership of Ai. It is No.5 in the World Cup in South Africa and the champion of the Asian Cup in Qatar! I believe that the 2014 World Cup in Brazil will achieve a greater breakthrough!”

It can be seen that Guardiola did not have any unpleasantness with Aiello, but had great expectations.

At the same time, "Confidential" once again broke the news that the 55-year-old Spanish coach Manzano signed a contract with the Chinese XX Football Association and will lead the Chinese Olympic team to participate in the 2012 London Olympics.

Now the world football media has become lively. If Guardiola's becoming the head coach of the Chinese team is surprising, then Manzano's becoming the head coach of the Olympic team is a bit confusing.

Judging from Manzano's coaching experience and coaching achievements, there is no need to worry about having a good next home, but he did not expect to choose to coach the Chinese Olympic team.

Soon, some media said that the players of the right age who are suitable for the London Olympics are very strong: Wang Xiaolei, Wu Xi, Zhang Linpeng, Zhang Xizhe, Wu Lei...

The most important thing is that the Olympic team can allow three overage players to participate.

So the reporter had a big brain hole. In the case of allowing overage players to participate, the Chinese XX Football Association will definitely recruit Ai Luo as the overage player of the team. In addition, Wang Xiaolei, Wu Xi and Zhang Linpeng who have established themselves in the European giants, the Chinese Olympic team will have great competitiveness in next year's Olympic Games!
