Chapter 309 The Era of Champions and Bad Luck

The game finally ended with a score of 3:1.

Under the silent gaze of tens of thousands of Juventus fans, Juventus players failed to perform miracles.

Juventus is not a team that is good at creating miracles, and they still have several embarrassing records.

For example, 9 entered the Champions League final and won 7 runner-ups, or scored a maximum of 1 goal in the regular season in the final.

All signs are enough to show that there is a problem with Juventus' overall tactical style, or a deep-rooted problem. The nickname "Old Lady" may not be a compliment.

This is a bloodless team. They can steadily win against weaker opponents, and occasionally win against stronger opponents, but it is difficult for them to perform astonishingly in a headwind situation.

It is really a very unreliable choice to expect Juventus to create miracles.

"There is basically no suspense about the Serie A championship this season." He Wei announced unceremoniously.

Before the season, the biggest opponent of Inter Milan's defending league champion was undoubtedly Juventus.

And now, in the most critical game, Juventus lost to Inter Milan at home. This is a game worth 6 points!

It was such an important game, a game that must not be lost, and Juventus lost.

After this game, Inter Milan has accumulated 41 points, while Juventus has only 27 points.

Only 15 rounds have passed, and the gap has already been opened up by 14 points!

Is this point difference like the gap between two championship teams?
Now, it is naturally impossible for Juventus to stand second in the standings, but AC Milan.

It is Inter Milan's old rival again. AC Milan has now accumulated 31 points, which is 10 points less than Inter Milan.

Compared with the double-digit point difference, what makes Milan fans even more desperate is that the two sides have already competed once in the first half of the league.

That time, Inter Milan slaughtered Milan 6:0!
Such an exaggerated point gap makes people completely unable to raise the confidence to win the battle.

The gap between Juventus is too large, and Milan has almost been defeated. There is basically no suspense about the league championship this season.

"We can't let go yet, we still have a lot of games to win, don't look at the points advantage now, those are fake!" Mourinho said seriously in the locker room.

The young players are a group of passionate men who won such a crucial game. Mourinho worried that they would be dazzled by the victory, so he poured cold water on them.

Veterans like Zanetti are okay, young players like Balotelli and players like Milito who have never won a league championship are really almost inflated.

Mourinho's cold water was timely.

After defeating a key opponent, he almost reprimanded all the players for 20 minutes.

Most of the players sounded a little upset, but there was still no way to refute.

In the current Inter Milan team, no one can refute Mourinho.

Zanetti with the highest qualifications is a good old man who doesn't care about being said a few words;
Li Ze, who has the highest strength, was brought by Mourinho and has a good mentality.

If they don't make trouble, Inter Milan will generally not be in chaos.

Moreover, when the team performs very well, the atmosphere in the team is generally not bad.

In the competitive world, winning can cover up many problems.

Just like in Huaguo, in a family with a harmonious relationship, the children's grades are generally very good.

Although the specific circumstances are different, the meaning is the same.

Now that 15 rounds of the league have passed, Inter Milan remains unbeaten with 13 wins and 2 draws, and also defeated the two main opponents competing for the league championship.

Although they lost a game in the Champions League, as long as they beat the Kazan Red Diamonds, they can get the first place in the group.

Such a result is too good, good enough to eliminate some small emotional dissatisfaction.

Everyone can see that Inter Milan this season can really make a name for themselves.

Mourinho gave everyone hope, and naturally made people ignore many problems.

Even Mourinho's approach has given many players a sense of trust.

The players are not all children, so they naturally know the reasons and reasons why Mourinho reprimanded them.

It can be said that Mourinho's management style of the locker room is like this.

If he can achieve good results, he will be able to establish prestige among the players.

And once established, he is a head coach who can control the locker room very well.

Later, he would cause so many problems in the locker room. There are two biggest reasons.

The first is that times have changed and players have lost their focus.

In the past, Mourinho's core player was Lampard, but later became Pogba.

The peak strength levels of two people may be close, but their hearts are completely different.

Lampard is the serious player, Pogba is very distracted.

Just like what Ye Gucheng said when he defeated Ximen Chuuxue, there are too many concerns on Pogba's sword, such as sneakers, contracts, and transfer to Real Madrid.

These worries entangled his sword like threads, making him unable to concentrate, thus limiting his ability and making him irritable.

This impatience made the conflict between him and Mourinho public, and it also made him post the photo with a weird smile.

Let's take another clearer example -

Ten years ago, what kind of stars were you chasing?
What about ten years from now?

Ten years ago, Huaguo didn't have so many fresh meats, and even if there were, they weren't so popular.

Pogba cannot be blamed for all the mistakes, Mourinho himself has to bear half of the responsibility.

If Pogba's mistake is that it has changed with the times, then Mourinho's mistake is that he failed to keep pace with the times.

He has always maintained the old set, whether it is the tactical style or the style of controlling the locker room.

Faced with a thorn like Pogba, he still uses the old method to deal with it. Can this be successful?Of course not.

What he should do is not to complain, but to find a way to show a new attitude of controlling the locker room and establish a new personality.

Otherwise, he can only be abandoned by the new era.

From this perspective, Mourinho actually has a feeling of being targeted by the times, just like Wenger.

Times have changed for other managers too, but not to the same extent.

Some of their styles are completely contrary to the trend of the times.

So Wenger was defeated by Jinyuan football, and Mourinho's reprimands frequently caused conflicts in the locker room.

But at least for now, nothing about Mourinho is outdated.

In Inter Milan, although he has not done very well in his current position, he has not made any mistakes.

From the locker room to the green field, Inter Milan is becoming mature and powerful.

Such a team lasted only one season, which is really a pity.

Just when Li Ze made a decision in his heart, he was injured again.

Another injury in training, this time by a teammate.

This time the injury was more serious, and the team doctor is expected to rest until the winter break.

Li Ze almost became depressed.

Then take out all the saved ability points and increase the injury tendency.
