Chapter 304 Why Do You Come When You Are Afraid?
Before meeting Everton's challenge on August 8, Chelsea will first usher in the draw ceremony for this season's Champions League group stage.
Just in the two days of August 8th and August 20th, the Champions League group qualifiers have also completed the final round of play-offs.
In this case, the 32 teams that have reached the group stage in the Champions League this season are also officially released.
In the play-offs, the most eye-catching is Arsenal from the Premier League.
After they beat Besiktas from Turkey 1-0 on aggregate, they also entered the Champions League group stage for the 17th consecutive season-a result only Real Madrid can match.
In other words, since Wenger coached Arsenal in 1996 and won the double crown of the Premier League and the FA Cup in the second season, and then qualified for the Champions League in the third season, Never been absent.
It can also be seen how stable Arsenal's performance was in fact when Wenger was in power.
Although everyone later joked that Asina competed for the fourth every year, but after Wenger left, I realized that the Champions League is not a place where you can come and participate if you want...
And after Arsenal entered the group stage again this season, relying on their stable performance in the Champions League in the past few years, the points they have won in the European war can also occupy the position of a first-tier team.
In the other few focus games, Naples from Serie A lost to Athletic Bilbao in La Liga with a total score of 2:4, and Porto in the Portuguese Super League defeated Lille in Ligue 3 0:[-].
Last season's No.4 Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga swept the Danish team Copenhagen 7:2 and easily advanced to the group stage.
In this way, the division of 32 teams is also completed.
According to the draw rules of the UEFA Champions League, the top 32 teams are divided into 4 grades according to UEFA's points system, of which the first grade seed team includes the previous champion Hamburg and the other 7 teams with higher points in the European war.
Namely: Hamburg, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Benfica, Atletico Madrid, Arsenal.
It should be noted that although Hamburg won the UEFA Champions League in an upset last season and won a lot of games, since the European War points are calculated based on the total points of the past five seasons, if the seeds are ranked entirely by points In terms of teams, it is impossible for Hamburg to rank first.
Only in third gear at most.
Even their points are not much higher than those of the fourth-tier teams, which belong to the level of the third-tier crane tail.
This is actually quite normal.
The European War points that can be obtained by winning the next championship is only 10 to [-] points, and as long as many teams can participate in the European War every year, and as long as the average score is less than [-] points, the total points can surpass Hamburg .
In the second tier of teams, since the three old strong teams Manchester United, AC Milan and Inter Milan have missed the Champions League this season, Manchester City and Zenit, which rank lower than them in the European war, become the second tier team;
Other second-tier teams include Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Borussia Dortmund, Shakhtar Donetsk, Basel, Porto, etc.
The teams in the third pot are Schalke 04, Olympiacos, CSKA Moscow, Ajax, Liverpool, Sporting Lisbon, Galatasaray, Athletic Bilbao.
Liverpool here is worth mentioning, because they also haven't participated in the Champions League for a long time, so they can only be ranked third.
Most of the fourth-tier teams are regulars in the European group stage. They are Anderlecht, Rome, APOEL, BATE Borisov, Ludogorets, Maribor, Monaco, Malmo.
Such a lottery situation is much better for Pan Yi than it was in Hamburg.
After all, Hamburg was the fourth-tier team at the beginning, and it can really be said that no matter how many draws there are, it is impossible to have any good signings.
And now Chelsea is the first team!
This has a natural advantage, and they don't have to consider facing the top teams in the Champions League such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern.
In addition, Manchester City, the most thorny in the second tier, and Liverpool, the most difficult to deal with in the third tier, are all Premier League teams. Due to the principle of domestic avoidance, it is impossible for Chelsea to draw with them.
Then draw again among the remaining teams. In fact, no matter how bad Chelsea is, it is impossible to draw the death group like before.
"Fortunately, it's impossible to get a hamburger." Pan Yi laughed.
On the evening of August 8, in Chelsea's head coach's office, Pan Yi and several coaches were watching live TV and waiting for the start of the draw.
"According to UEFA's urine, if we are not in the same team, maybe it is really possible." Assistant coach Steve Holland said with a smile, "When you were in Hamburg last year, you won the old club AC. Milan? This kind of play against the old club is the most eye-catching."
"It just so happens that our boss is the most eye-catching head coach in the world today..." Another assistant Scaloni also said, "It's a pity, otherwise the topic will be full!"
Pan Yi smiled: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with being able to draw burgers. This year, half of the Hamburg team was bought, and the strength is not as good as before."
In this summer, Hamburg is indeed the most "bleeding" team in European football.
In their main lineup, a bunch of people like Vardy, De Bruyne, Kanter, Casemiro, Carvajal, Navas... etc. have been poached.
Even Charhanoglu, Paulinho, Hasebe Makoto and others who played on the bench also switched to his team.
Although Hamburg also added players like Behrami, Julu, and Adler in the summer window, the decline in strength is still very obvious.
Their performance in the first round of the Bundesliga just past also proved this point.
Hamburg faced the newly promoted Cologne away, but was tied 0:0 by the opponent, showing a certain weakness.
Later, Pan Yi said to everyone in a relaxed tone:
"Actually, my point of view is still the same as before."
"No matter what team we draw, we must be fully prepared to fight and win."
"Last year I led Hamburg to meet Barcelona and Milan in the group stage, so what? It's not two rounds ahead of schedule."
"Our goal this year is also to win the championship! To create history! So we have to find ways to beat all the teams!"
Hearing what Pan Yi said, the coaches were very excited.
Everyone knows Pan Yi's level, and also knows that he will not talk about it.
Since Pan Yi said he wanted to create history, then he really wanted to go for this goal!
So as long as everyone closely unites around the Chelsea coaching staff with Pan Yi as the core, unite as one, and work together, it is possible to realize this great vision!
Everyone is a professional coach, isn't it just for this moment?Raise the most important trophy!
As for Pan Yi, he himself is of course looking forward to the start of the Champions League.
After all, although the Premier League is indeed very exciting, it is a long marathon, more of a protracted game, and tests the overall combat capability of the team.
But the cup match is different, especially when it comes to the knockout round, every game is really a bayonet hit!
Let alone the UEFA Champions League, all of them are carefully selected masters from the European continent.
It will give Pan Yi a feeling of enjoyment to fight against the masters and then eliminate them!
This feeling is also something that the league cannot give.

Monaco, Grimaldi Congress Centre.
The annual UEFA Champions League group stage draw ceremony and UEFA awards ceremony officially kicked off here.
Before the draw ceremony began, last season's champion, Hamburg captain Westermann brought the Champions League trophy back to the scene.
Then a short video was played live to commemorate the two football legends Eusebio and Di Stefano who died.
The draw ceremony is still UEFA Secretary-General Infantino and Competition Director Marchetti, and the guest is German football star Riedel.
The reason why the guest is Riedel is because this season's Champions League final will be held at the Berlin Olympic Stadium in Germany.
The first seeded teams are drawn first.
Bayern Munich are in Group E.
Then the defending champion Hamburg was drawn out and entered Group H.
Then there is Real Madrid, and the Galacticos enter Group B.
Benfica were drawn into Group C, Arsenal into Group D, Barcelona into Group F and Atletico Madrid into Group A.
The last to be drawn was Chelsea, into Group G.
It's still calm here, after all, it's just putting the first-tier teams into the corresponding level.
But starting from the draw of the second-tier team, whether it was the representatives of the teams on the scene, or the officials and coaches watching in front of the TV, they were a little nervous.
For example, in the office of the director of the Westfalenstadion in Germany, the director of the Dortmund team, Michael Salk, is staring at the TV screen with the head coach Jurgen Klopp.
"It can be Real Madrid or Barcelona, but it's better not..." Klopp gritted his teeth, "Chelsea!"
As a second-tier team, it is impossible for Dortmund itself to meet Bayern Munich in the same country.
And when they faced Real Madrid in the previous two seasons, they did not fall behind, so Klopp is not afraid of the Spanish team.
Of course, if it's Benfica, or even Arsenal, Uncle Zha would prefer it.
but……
When he faced Pan Yi's team, he couldn't get any good results!
In the last season, the two 0:3 in the league and the cup really made Klopp feel a deep sense of powerlessness when facing Pan Yi.
But this season, Pan Yi switched to Chelsea, but he still showed an unstoppable momentum. He won two 4:0 in the Premier League, and it seems that the momentum is not weaker than when he was in Hamburg.
I don't know why, Klopp felt from the bottom of his heart that if he met Pan Yi again, it would be a bad ending again!
Therefore, he would rather touch a giant like Barcelona and Real Madrid than fight against Pan Yi again!
If Chelsea is really drawn, it will be really bad luck!
"To be honest, if we meet Chelsea, what are the chances of winning?" Director Salk asked solemnly.
Klopp's mind, he can probably guess a little bit.
But in his heart, there is also a hope that Klopp can lead Dortmund to defeat Pan Yi's Chelsea.
In this way, Klopp may be able to get rid of his demons, which will be more conducive to the future development of Dortmund.
"I don't know." Klopp shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He really didn't know.
In other words, he might want to say "the probability of winning is very low", but of course he can't say it like that.
He also watched Chelsea's Premier League games, and he also found that after Pan Yi arrived in the Premier League, he upgraded his tactical philosophy and system.
Although the 433 formation in Hamburg was very successful, Pan Yi still resolutely changed Chelsea's main tactics to 343, and this style of play even appeared to be more perfect than before in the Bundesliga.
This is also a very thought-provoking place!
You know, when a football coach is able to form a complete set of tactical concepts of his own, it is often only after several years of hard work in professional football that he can sum it up.
And if you can be very proficient in various formations, and can skillfully switch between multiple styles of play, then it is absolutely impossible to do it without more than ten or eight years of skill.
Even if there are so many world-class coaches today, many of them are famous because of a certain formation that they are good at.
For example, Bielsa's 3313, Conte's 352, Guardiola's 433, Mourinho's 4231, and so on.
But now this Pan Yi, who is only 28 years old, said that he changed the formation when he changed the formation, and he played so well every time he changed!
Counting from his time as an assistant coach in Milan, it is the fourth year of his career when he is full of efforts, but he has already used 4231, 433, and the current 343 formation to make a fortune.
What a terrifying tactical ability this is!Actually use what Turin!
And now Pan Yi is in Chelsea, a club with sufficient funds and complete club facilities as a solid backing. He can build his own lineup according to his own ideas and display his own tactics.
Coupled with his superb formation ability and on-the-spot command, no one knows how far he will bring this team!
Because of this, Klopp just wants to say: He doesn't want to meet Pan Yi's Chelsea!
So this draw made him feel very worried.
If they did meet, and if they were still defeated, how much pressure would Uncle Scum, as the coach, have to face?
Klopp is now very aware of the gap between himself and Pan Yi, as well as Dortmund's current strength.
Although they are also recruiting in various ways this season, they spent 1940 million euros on Italian star Immobile, 1000 million euros from Freiburg to introduce Ginter, and 970 million from Hertha Berlin. Moss, Ji Dongyuan, who came from Augsburg on a free transfer;
There are also two old players, Shinji Kagawa who bought back from Manchester United for 800 million, and Shaheen who bought out from Real Madrid for 700 million...
However, Dortmund left Lewandowski for free this season!
This seems to be a void that no player can fill.
With Immobile's ability, can he replace Lewandowski?This is obviously a big question mark.
So, with the current Dortmund lineup to touch Chelsea, does Klopp really have a chance of winning?
And how to play then?
Confrontation?I'm afraid it will be difficult.
Defensively?That would probably be scolded to death by Westfalen fans.
You know, since the first day of Pan Yi's rise in Hamburg, countless media and fans have been comparing him with Pan Yi.
Afterwards, everyone also recognized that such a comparison was meaningless—because Pan Yi had already won a complete victory!
If Klopp chooses to defend when facing Pan Yi again, it will already be another loss in itself.
Not to mention that if you defend and still lose, it will really be more and more losses!
Of course, Klopp is not saying never to touch Pan Yi.
His heart is also eager to challenge, and has the ideal to bring out the best team in the world!
What he thought in his heart was that he could use a more ideal lineup to meet Pan Yi and truly defeat him!
Rather than when I was building a lineup, the team's main striker just slipped into the home of the opponent's opponent...
"Maybe if one day, give me a Premier League team with enough funds to allow me to build a strong lineup, I can go to England to face him!" This is Klopp's inner monologue.
Of course, when facing the team director now, he would not say this out loud.
And how does Director Salk know what Klopp is thinking?
He just could see that Klopp could touch anyone now, but he really didn't want to touch Pan Yi.
So, Salk patted Klopp's shoulder lightly, and comforted him with a smile: "It's okay, it won't be so unlucky."
Then, on the TV screen, another guest who drew lots, Uwe Schiller, a double star in Germany and Hamburg, has already shown everyone the note showing Dortmund.
"Dortmund, Group G!"
It is Group G where Chelsea is!
Klopp suddenly had a black line on his head.
My bad luck...
Why do you come here when you are afraid?
-
The teams in the second tier were drawn one after another.
Zenit St. Petersburg, the Russian giants entered Group C, with Benfica.
Then Paris Saint-Germain was drawn, and they were assigned to Group F where Barcelona is!
Then there is Shakhtar Donetsk in Group H, where they will face defending champions Hamburger Hamburg.
Then Manchester City entered Group E and met Bayern Munich again!This also caused a commotion at the scene.
Porto into Group D, Basel into Group B and Juventus into Group A.
The team in the third tier, of course, is Liverpool. They were drawn into Group B, which is a group with Real Madrid!
Of course, there was no so-called "several accounts to settle" between the two teams at this time, so it didn't cause much repercussions.
The main reason is that the team in the second tier of this group is Basel in Switzerland, so there is no real so-called group of death.
And it was Sporting Portugal that was drawn into Group G with Chelsea and Dortmund.
This is actually the relatively stronger team in the third tier.
"Is my luck really that bad?" Pan Yi in front of the TV couldn't help laughing.
Although Chelsea is the first team, which means that no matter how bad their signing luck is, they will not go anywhere, but looking at it now, almost all the strong teams that may be drawn in every level have been drawn in. what!
In the second tier, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, and Dortmund are undoubtedly the strongest potential opponents, and then Dortmund was drawn;
In the third tier, the stronger ones are Sporting Lisbon, Ajax, and Athletic Bilbao, and then Sporting Lisbon is drawn.
"The last team won't be Roma, right?" Scaloni glanced at the roster of the fourth-tier teams, which means that Roma is stronger.
"You crow mouth!" Steve Horan cursed softly, then pointed at the TV screen.
There, Riddle had already held up the note that said "Rome" and then pulled out its grouping: Group G!
"I'll wipe it, this is too nonsense." Pan Yi really laughed out loud.
This is to force oneself to be difficult, to create a theoretical "death group".
But since everyone smoked like this, who would Pan Yi be afraid of?
Even groups like Barcelona, Milan, and Ajax have been kicked out. I'm really not afraid of this reduced version of the group of death!
"Okay, let's cheer up and meet new challenges! The stronger the opponent is, the happier I will be!" Pan Yi said to the coaches, "Also, the preparations for defeating them will start today! "
"Yes, boss!" Everyone answered in unison.
Under Pan Yi's subordinates, everyone has such a spirit!
If you change teams, you don't know how long you have to wear a mask of pain.
After all, who doesn't want to pinch a few more soft persimmons in the group stage?
-
With all the teams drawn from the fourth pot, the grouping of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2014-2015 season has finally been completed.
Group A: Atletico Madrid (Spain), Juventus (Italy), Olympiacos (Greece), Malmo (Sweden)
Group B: Real Madrid (Spain), Basel (Switzerland), Liverpool (England), Ludogorets (Bulgaria)
Group C: Benfica (Portugal), Zenit St Petersburg (Russia), Schalke 04 (Germany), Monaco (France)
Group D: Arsenal (England), Porto (Portugal), Galatasaray (Turkey), Anderlecht (Belgium)
Group E: Bayern Munich (Germany), Manchester City (England), CSKA Moscow (Russia), Maribor (Slovenia)
Group F: Barcelona (Spain), Paris Saint-Germain (France), Ajax (Netherlands), APOEL (Cyprus)
Group G: Chelsea (England), Borussia Dortmund (Germany), Sporting Lisbon (Portugal), Roma (Italy)
Group H: Hamburg (Germany), Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine), Athletic Bilbao (Spain), Borisov (Belarus)
In general, the defending champion Hamburg is divided into a good group. After all, the other three opponents are not very strong. Perhaps their biggest headache is the long away trip to Ukraine and Belarus.
The Group F where Barcelona, Paris, and Ajax are located, and the Group G where Chelsea, Dortmund, Portuguese Sports and Roma are located, are recognized as relatively difficult groups.
Especially in Group G, everyone believes that all four teams have a chance to qualify, and it is the real group of death in the Champions League this season!
But Pan Yi said at a press conference the next day before the start of the third round of the Premier League that Chelsea did not think there was anything special about this group.
"Everyone knows that I have always been not particularly picky about my opponents in the Champions League, as long as I don't always play the same team."
"What, you said that Dortmund is my old opponent? Hehe, now that I am in the Premier League and Klopp is in the Bundesliga, it feels fresh again."
"There is no doubt that we have only one goal in the group stage, and that is the top spot in the group. Because our ultimate goal is the championship, so I will also be the first in the group stage."
"So, the other three teams are embarrassed, you can only compete for the second place in the group."
Pan Yi said this very confidently, which also caused an uproar among the media reporters at the scene.
But it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. After all, whether it is from the paper strength of these four teams or the recent state, Chelsea is indeed the best.
Although a football game is not a game where the outcome can be determined by strength on paper, Pan Yi can always make his team play the best ability in the game, and then win!
The facts of the competition in the past few years have also proved this point.
In the end, Pan Yi said that whether it is the Champions League or the next Premier League game, his team is ready.
Chelsea have the ability to attack on multiple fronts and fight for the best!
(End of this chapter)
Before meeting Everton's challenge on August 8, Chelsea will first usher in the draw ceremony for this season's Champions League group stage.
Just in the two days of August 8th and August 20th, the Champions League group qualifiers have also completed the final round of play-offs.
In this case, the 32 teams that have reached the group stage in the Champions League this season are also officially released.
In the play-offs, the most eye-catching is Arsenal from the Premier League.
After they beat Besiktas from Turkey 1-0 on aggregate, they also entered the Champions League group stage for the 17th consecutive season-a result only Real Madrid can match.
In other words, since Wenger coached Arsenal in 1996 and won the double crown of the Premier League and the FA Cup in the second season, and then qualified for the Champions League in the third season, Never been absent.
It can also be seen how stable Arsenal's performance was in fact when Wenger was in power.
Although everyone later joked that Asina competed for the fourth every year, but after Wenger left, I realized that the Champions League is not a place where you can come and participate if you want...
And after Arsenal entered the group stage again this season, relying on their stable performance in the Champions League in the past few years, the points they have won in the European war can also occupy the position of a first-tier team.
In the other few focus games, Naples from Serie A lost to Athletic Bilbao in La Liga with a total score of 2:4, and Porto in the Portuguese Super League defeated Lille in Ligue 3 0:[-].

Monaco, Grimaldi Congress Centre.
The annual UEFA Champions League group stage draw ceremony and UEFA awards ceremony officially kicked off here.
Before the draw ceremony began, last season's champion, Hamburg captain Westermann brought the Champions League trophy back to the scene.
Then a short video was played live to commemorate the two football legends Eusebio and Di Stefano who died.
The draw ceremony is still UEFA Secretary-General Infantino and Competition Director Marchetti, and the guest is German football star Riedel.
The reason why the guest is Riedel is because this season's Champions League final will be held at the Berlin Olympic Stadium in Germany.
The first seeded teams are drawn first.
Bayern Munich are in Group E.
Then the defending champion Hamburg was drawn out and entered Group H.
Then there is Real Madrid, and the Galacticos enter Group B.
Benfica were drawn into Group C, Arsenal into Group D, Barcelona into Group F and Atletico Madrid into Group A.
The last to be drawn was Chelsea, into Group G.
It's still calm here, after all, it's just putting the first-tier teams into the corresponding level.
But starting from the draw of the second-tier team, whether it was the representatives of the teams on the scene, or the officials and coaches watching in front of the TV, they were a little nervous.
For example, in the office of the director of the Westfalenstadion in Germany, the director of the Dortmund team, Michael Salk, is staring at the TV screen with the head coach Jurgen Klopp.

And when they faced Real Madrid in the previous two seasons, they did not fall behind, so Klopp is not afraid of the Spanish team.

In the last season, the two 0:3 in the league and the cup really made Klopp feel a deep sense of powerlessness when facing Pan Yi.
But this season, Pan Yi switched to Chelsea, but he still showed an unstoppable momentum. He won two 4:0 in the Premier League, and it seems that the momentum is not weaker than when he was in Hamburg.
I don't know why, Klopp felt from the bottom of his heart that if he met Pan Yi again, it would be a bad ending again!
Therefore, he would rather touch a giant like Barcelona and Real Madrid than fight against Pan Yi again!
If Chelsea is really drawn, it will be really bad luck!
"To be honest, if we meet Chelsea, what are the chances of winning?" Director Salk asked solemnly.
Klopp's mind, he can probably guess a little bit.
But in his heart, there is also a hope that Klopp can lead Dortmund to defeat Pan Yi's Chelsea.
In this way, Klopp may be able to get rid of his demons, which will be more conducive to the future development of Dortmund.
"I don't know." Klopp shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He really didn't know.
In other words, he might want to say "the probability of winning is very low", but of course he can't say it like that.
He also watched Chelsea's Premier League games, and he also found that after Pan Yi arrived in the Premier League, he upgraded his tactical philosophy and system.
Although the 433 formation in Hamburg was very successful, Pan Yi still resolutely changed Chelsea's main tactics to 343, and this style of play even appeared to be more perfect than before in the Bundesliga.
This is also a very thought-provoking place!
You know, when a football coach is able to form a complete set of tactical concepts of his own, it is often only after several years of hard work in professional football that he can sum it up.
And if you can be very proficient in various formations, and can skillfully switch between multiple styles of play, then it is absolutely impossible to do it without more than ten or eight years of skill.
Even if there are so many world-class coaches today, many of them are famous because of a certain formation that they are good at.
For example, Bielsa's 3313, Conte's 352, Guardiola's 433, Mourinho's 4231, and so on.
But now this Pan Yi, who is only 28 years old, said that he changed the formation when he changed the formation, and he played so well every time he changed!
Counting from his time as an assistant coach in Milan, it is the fourth year of his career when he is full of efforts, but he has already used 4231, 433, and the current 343 formation to make a fortune.
What a terrifying tactical ability this is!Actually use what Turin!
And now Pan Yi is in Chelsea, a club with sufficient funds and complete club facilities as a solid backing. He can build his own lineup according to his own ideas and display his own tactics.
Coupled with his superb formation ability and on-the-spot command, no one knows how far he will bring this team!
Because of this, Klopp just wants to say: He doesn't want to meet Pan Yi's Chelsea!
So this draw made him feel very worried.
If they did meet, and if they were still defeated, how much pressure would Uncle Scum, as the coach, have to face?
Klopp is now very aware of the gap between himself and Pan Yi, as well as Dortmund's current strength.
Although they are also recruiting in various ways this season, they spent 1940 million euros on Italian star Immobile, 1000 million euros from Freiburg to introduce Ginter, and 970 million from Hertha Berlin. Moss, Ji Dongyuan, who came from Augsburg on a free transfer;
There are also two old players, Shinji Kagawa who bought back from Manchester United for 800 million, and Shaheen who bought out from Real Madrid for 700 million...
However, Dortmund left Lewandowski for free this season!
This seems to be a void that no player can fill.
With Immobile's ability, can he replace Lewandowski?This is obviously a big question mark.
So, with the current Dortmund lineup to touch Chelsea, does Klopp really have a chance of winning?
And how to play then?
Confrontation?I'm afraid it will be difficult.
Defensively?That would probably be scolded to death by Westfalen fans.
You know, since the first day of Pan Yi's rise in Hamburg, countless media and fans have been comparing him with Pan Yi.
Afterwards, everyone also recognized that such a comparison was meaningless—because Pan Yi had already won a complete victory!
If Klopp chooses to defend when facing Pan Yi again, it will already be another loss in itself.
Not to mention that if you defend and still lose, it will really be more and more losses!
Of course, Klopp is not saying never to touch Pan Yi.
His heart is also eager to challenge, and has the ideal to bring out the best team in the world!
What he thought in his heart was that he could use a more ideal lineup to meet Pan Yi and truly defeat him!
Rather than when I was building a lineup, the team's main striker just slipped into the home of the opponent's opponent...
"Maybe if one day, give me a Premier League team with enough funds to allow me to build a strong lineup, I can go to England to face him!" This is Klopp's inner monologue.
Of course, when facing the team director now, he would not say this out loud.
And how does Director Salk know what Klopp is thinking?
He just could see that Klopp could touch anyone now, but he really didn't want to touch Pan Yi.
So, Salk patted Klopp's shoulder lightly, and comforted him with a smile: "It's okay, it won't be so unlucky."
Then, on the TV screen, another guest who drew lots, Uwe Schiller, a double star in Germany and Hamburg, has already shown everyone the note showing Dortmund.
"Dortmund, Group G!"
It is Group G where Chelsea is!
Klopp suddenly had a black line on his head.
My bad luck...
Why do you come here when you are afraid?
-
The teams in the second tier were drawn one after another.
Zenit St. Petersburg, the Russian giants entered Group C, with Benfica.
Then Paris Saint-Germain was drawn, and they were assigned to Group F where Barcelona is!
Then there is Shakhtar Donetsk in Group H, where they will face defending champions Hamburger Hamburg.
Then Manchester City entered Group E and met Bayern Munich again!This also caused a commotion at the scene.
Porto into Group D, Basel into Group B and Juventus into Group A.
The team in the third tier, of course, is Liverpool. They were drawn into Group B, which is a group with Real Madrid!
Of course, there was no so-called "several accounts to settle" between the two teams at this time, so it didn't cause much repercussions.
The main reason is that the team in the second tier of this group is Basel in Switzerland, so there is no real so-called group of death.
And it was Sporting Portugal that was drawn into Group G with Chelsea and Dortmund.
This is actually the relatively stronger team in the third tier.
"Is my luck really that bad?" Pan Yi in front of the TV couldn't help laughing.
Although Chelsea is the first team, which means that no matter how bad their signing luck is, they will not go anywhere, but looking at it now, almost all the strong teams that may be drawn in every level have been drawn in. what!
In the second tier, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, and Dortmund are undoubtedly the strongest potential opponents, and then Dortmund was drawn;
In the third tier, the stronger ones are Sporting Lisbon, Ajax, and Athletic Bilbao, and then Sporting Lisbon is drawn.
"The last team won't be Roma, right?" Scaloni glanced at the roster of the fourth-tier teams, which means that Roma is stronger.
"You crow mouth!" Steve Horan cursed softly, then pointed at the TV screen.
There, Riddle had already held up the note that said "Rome" and then pulled out its grouping: Group G!
"I'll wipe it, this is too nonsense." Pan Yi really laughed out loud.
This is to force oneself to be difficult, to create a theoretical "death group".
But since everyone smoked like this, who would Pan Yi be afraid of?
Even groups like Barcelona, Milan, and Ajax have been kicked out. I'm really not afraid of this reduced version of the group of death!
"Okay, let's cheer up and meet new challenges! The stronger the opponent is, the happier I will be!" Pan Yi said to the coaches, "Also, the preparations for defeating them will start today! "
"Yes, boss!" Everyone answered in unison.
Under Pan Yi's subordinates, everyone has such a spirit!
If you change teams, you don't know how long you have to wear a mask of pain.
After all, who doesn't want to pinch a few more soft persimmons in the group stage?
-
With all the teams drawn from the fourth pot, the grouping of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2014-2015 season has finally been completed.
Group A: Atletico Madrid (Spain), Juventus (Italy), Olympiacos (Greece), Malmo (Sweden)
Group B: Real Madrid (Spain), Basel (Switzerland), Liverpool (England), Ludogorets (Bulgaria)
Group C: Benfica (Portugal), Zenit St Petersburg (Russia), Schalke 04 (Germany), Monaco (France)
Group D: Arsenal (England), Porto (Portugal), Galatasaray (Turkey), Anderlecht (Belgium)
Group E: Bayern Munich (Germany), Manchester City (England), CSKA Moscow (Russia), Maribor (Slovenia)
Group F: Barcelona (Spain), Paris Saint-Germain (France), Ajax (Netherlands), APOEL (Cyprus)
Group G: Chelsea (England), Borussia Dortmund (Germany), Sporting Lisbon (Portugal), Roma (Italy)
Group H: Hamburg (Germany), Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine), Athletic Bilbao (Spain), Borisov (Belarus)
In general, the defending champion Hamburg is divided into a good group. After all, the other three opponents are not very strong. Perhaps their biggest headache is the long away trip to Ukraine and Belarus.
The Group F where Barcelona, Paris, and Ajax are located, and the Group G where Chelsea, Dortmund, Portuguese Sports and Roma are located, are recognized as relatively difficult groups.
Especially in Group G, everyone believes that all four teams have a chance to qualify, and it is the real group of death in the Champions League this season!
But Pan Yi said at a press conference the next day before the start of the third round of the Premier League that Chelsea did not think there was anything special about this group.
"Everyone knows that I have always been not particularly picky about my opponents in the Champions League, as long as I don't always play the same team."
"What, you said that Dortmund is my old opponent? Hehe, now that I am in the Premier League and Klopp is in the Bundesliga, it feels fresh again."
"There is no doubt that we have only one goal in the group stage, and that is the top spot in the group. Because our ultimate goal is the championship, so I will also be the first in the group stage."
"So, the other three teams are embarrassed, you can only compete for the second place in the group."
Pan Yi said this very confidently, which also caused an uproar among the media reporters at the scene.
But it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. After all, whether it is from the paper strength of these four teams or the recent state, Chelsea is indeed the best.
Although a football game is not a game where the outcome can be determined by strength on paper, Pan Yi can always make his team play the best ability in the game, and then win!
The facts of the competition in the past few years have also proved this point.
In the end, Pan Yi said that whether it is the Champions League or the next Premier League game, his team is ready.
Chelsea have the ability to attack on multiple fronts and fight for the best!
