The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 711 Whose trophy?

There is a saying, "Heaven obeys people's wishes."

It was indeed a night of rain in Munich last night, and it didn't stop until early in the morning. This made the sky in Munich in the morning blue, and I believe it should be a very good competition weather.

But when Ye Qiu got up, he still had an expression of not getting enough sleep. He reached out with his right hand and grabbed the back of his neck that was sore because of the wrong sleeping position, but he was cursing in his heart that the morning that lasted for a while. Hours of sound and movement.

It was early morning after the rain, and when Ye Qiu was sleeping soundly, there was a deafening siren sound from the street, the decibels were very high, and it lasted for an hour, even the sealed doors and windows of the hotel could not stop the noise The invasion caused Ye Qiu to be awakened and unable to sleep for a while.

"Did you wake up last night?" Peter Kenyon also walked out of the room with a big bald head. He saw Ye Qiu rubbing his neck and looked like he couldn't get enough sleep. He laughed and said, "This should be Bayern Munich. A welcome gift from your fans."

"Small tricks!" Ye Qiu shook his head dismissively.

The two of them had just taken two steps when they heard the door of Mauro Tassotti's room next door open. Roland, a big fat man, was speaking his loud voice inside, greeting the ancestors of the Bayern Munich fans who honked last night. I don't know how many times, looking at his posture, it seems that he couldn't sleep because of the noise last night, but the problem is, this fat man looks very energetic.

"Fatty, you scolded so hard that you didn't sleep all night because of the noise?" Ye Qiu stood at the door of the room and asked with a smile.

Fatty Luo turned around, as if he saw the killing of his father and enemy, "Damn, those noisy bastards made me lose half an hour of sleep last night, if it really makes me unhappy, I will Report them to the police station!"

Everyone immediately laughed in unison and lost half an hour of sleep. As for this?
"Let the players rest more at noon, if you didn't sleep well last night, sleep a little longer!" Ye Qiu reminded.

Mauro Tassotti nodded in agreement, and then handed out a morning newspaper. This is the German Bild. The cover is a red front page headline. It published a battle message issued by Bayern Munich last night. , "Swear to keep the Champions League trophy at home!", this open letter occupied the entire front page of Bild.

"After all, it's a German newspaper that supports Bayern Munich!" Ye Qiu chuckled, this may be called the difference between closeness and distance.

Bayern Munich actually knows how to hype and take advantage of the situation. They are not only doing this to cheer for the Champions League final, but also to win more fans and audiences for themselves, because they are the German team with the best performance in the European competition in the past ten years. Dortmund, who was invincible at the end of the 90s, will not be able to do it after entering the 21st century.

"Looking annoying, let's eat!" Ye Qiu put down the newspaper and suggested.

A group of four people left the room, took the elevator down, and came to the Michelin restaurant.

This Mandarin Oriental Hotel is actually not big, only six floors high. There are more than 100 people in the Tottenham Hotspur team, plus their relatives, as well as some representatives of the team's sponsors and accompanying reporters. There were more than 300 people, and all the rooms in the entire hotel were booked out, so only people from Tottenham Hotspur could enter and exit the entire hotel, and outsiders were rejected.

Therefore, the Michelin restaurant only serves Tottenham Hotspur, and everyone can come here to eat for free.

"Less than 400 meters to the west is Marienplatz!" Peter Kenyon and others sat down and pointed to the west through the glass curtain wall. Marienplatz is also the seat of Munich City Hall.

After a pause, he seemed to realize that no one knew about Marienplatz, so he said again: "When I was discussing with Bayern Munich and the Munich City Hall last night, they planned to treat Marienplatz as a Some of the fans who can't get into the Allianz Arena gather to watch the game, and the other is the Oden Square."

After Ye Qiu heard this, he frowned, "Will it be okay if the fans from both sides gather together?"

Peter Kenyon nodded, "I also expressed my concerns, but the Munich city government feels that as long as the organization is well organized and the fans on both sides are well communicated, as long as they all abide by the order, there is no big problem."

In fact, many fan riots come from a small number of football hooligans, and this minority will exist no matter which team it is, so a heavyweight event like the Champions League final is still very important for the control and suppression of football hooligans. Prudent, and as long as the football hooligans are dealt with, the problem won't be too big.

Of course, some provocations and competitions will still happen. For example, the two sides compete to see who can shout louder, and whose slogans and slogans are more lethal. These are inevitable.

"As reported by the Bild newspaper just now, as of this morning, it is estimated that 18 people will flock to the city, and the number is still increasing rapidly. In addition to the fans in the Allianz Arena, there will probably be gatherings outside the stadium today. More than 20, maybe even 25 fans."

The total population of Munich is only over 100 million, and now there are almost 20 fans pouring in from outside. It is conceivable how much pressure the city is facing now, but with so many people coming in, it will affect the city's economy and The thrill of spending is amazing, and that's what the Champions League final has to offer.

Ye Qiu thought for a while, then looked at Roland Shepas. After noticing Ye Qiu's eyes, the latter smiled, "I have already arranged for people to go to Marienplatz and Odenplatz. Don't worry, I will Deal with it!"

Fatty Luo knew Ye Qiu very well. When he heard that there were so many fans gathered together, he already knew what Ye Qiu was thinking.

"Is your trump card useful?" Peter Kenyon asked with a smile.

Ye Qiu shrugged, "Who knows, try it!"

Everyone is smiling, of course they all hope to be useful, but sometimes things are hard to say.

Breakfast was served soon, and several people gathered together to chat while eating.

"Really intend to sell Alves?" Peter Kenyon asked Ye Qiu.

In fact, Ye Qiu didn't say anything, but asked Peter DeVissel to give him a scouting report for the right back. His requirements were that the player must be under 25 years old, not too expensive, and cost-effective. There is potential for future development as he is not entirely happy with the progress Chambers has made since his loan move to Southampton.

After Lucas Moura and Coutinho went to Southampton, they have made rapid progress. The former has become the core of Southampton's frontcourt attack, but there are still some weaknesses and deficiencies that need to be further refined and improved. Coutinho After playing in the middle, his performance has improved a lot, and his defensive attitude has become more correct.

As for Chambers, he is too young. Now it is not so difficult for him to play in Tottenham Hotspur, even as a substitute. On the contrary, it is another young player in the team, the 17-year-old Luke? Shaw, who has been eye-catching in the UEFA Youth League, should give him some chances next season.

This season Tottenham Hotspur's youth team stopped in the semi-finals of the UEFA Youth League and was eliminated by Chelsea's youth team. The blue army's youth team finally reached the final and successfully defeated AC Milan's youth team Ye Qiu won the championship, and the 19-year-old right back De Sciglio in the AC Milan youth team impressed Ye Qiu well.

This is also a choice made by Ye Qiu and Mauro Tassotti. The youth team is to play its own characteristics and level, rather than thinking about achieving results and championships. That is meaningless. More importantly, youth Whether the team can provide more powerful talent reserves for the first team is the key point.

Of course, the youth team of Tottenham Hotspur is the most advocating offensive football in the UEFA Youth League. It is also the game with the strongest offensive ability and the most gorgeous style of play. There was also an 8:3 victory over the Real Madrid youth team. The wonderful game won the applause and made many rookies of the youth team famous, such as Nick? Powell and Januzaj.

Ye Qiu asked the scouts to investigate the right back, obviously to move Alves. After all, Kyle Walker is currently admired by Ye Qiu, especially under the sculpting of Mauro Tassotti, who was born as a right back. The defensive level has improved a lot, the offensive power is not as good as Alves, and the technology is not as good as the Brazilian, but he is faster and more impactful, and his body and strength are also better.

"I can accept that he complains about me and the team and even loses his temper in order to negotiate a contract extension, but I can't allow the slack he showed after he came on the court, especially his indifference and indifference attitude, I must We must kill this trend in the bud, otherwise, more and more people will do it in the future!"

After finally selling players like Cesc Fabregas and David Silva, the tempers of some big-name players on the team were stifled. If Alves makes such a fuss again, what Ye Qiu did before will fall short .

As Guardiola asked, what do you do when a team is out of balance?
Keeping Alves will break the current balance of the team. The Brazilian will play games with a mentality that the team thinks he is indispensable. The team as a whole will lose balance and control, and sell him. Although the team lost one of the world's best right backs, it maintained the team's balance.

Moreover, Alves is already 29 years old, and it is a good deal to sell now.

"I see what you mean, let's do it according to the old rules!" Peter Kenyon agreed.

Ye Qiu had to admit that Alves' tactical impact on the team was indeed great, but it was not so great that the team could break the balance for him and tolerate his unscrupulous trampling on the team's rules. If he does what he does now and Ye Qiu doesn't punish him, others will follow suit next time, so what prestige does Ye Qiu have?

If Ye Qiu can tolerate it in the second round of the Barcelona game, get a yellow card after playing and behave like sleepwalking, and give him a chance, then play this redemption battle against Aston Villa , he used such a sluggish performance to put pressure on Ye Qiu, which sentenced him to death.

Ye Qiu knew very well that it wasn't that Alves didn't have strength, nor was he in a bad state, but that he did it on purpose.

For Ye Qiu, Kyle Walker will start in this Champions League match, and it will be a test for Ye Qiu. If the England right back seizes the opportunity, then Ye Qiu will send Alvi away without hesitation. However, if Kyle Walker's performance is sluggish and his performance is poor, then Ye Qiu may reconsider whether to keep Alves for another season.

…………

As night fell, the Allianz Arena changed its red lights from the past, and it was not the blue that appeared in Munich 1860, let alone the white of the German national team, but added a kind of grass green, which represents the UEFA Champions League final. unique color.

It is said that in order to show this color, the Allianz Arena specially modified the lighting system, and finally achieved the effect.

At the same time, the logo of the Allianz Arena on the outer wall of the stadium was also covered by UEFA's [UEFA Champions League] banner, and even the ticket for the final said it was the Munich Stadium, not the stadium. The purpose of the Allianz Arena is to avoid the name of the sponsor Allianz.

Before the final, the square in front of the stadium became a gathering place for fans. Fans could be seen everywhere holding up signs begging for tickets. The current final ticket price has even reached as high as 300 euros per ticket, and if it is based on the official ticket The fare is more than [-] euros, and the ticket price has almost doubled by ten times. This is also a very astonishing figure, but it is still hard to find a ticket.

The police were at the scene in groups to maintain order, and the fans of both sides were also looking for the entrance of the stadium under the arrangement and organization of the police and the on-site staff. The South Stand of the main stand belongs to Bayern Munich fans, while Tottenham Hotspur The fans gathered in the north stand, and the stands on the east and west sides belonged to the neutral fan area, and the fans of the two teams were clearly separated.

Huang Chu and Elisa walked out of the fan aisle with a child alone. Their seats were arranged in the middle of the ground floor of the North Stand, surrounded by representatives of Tottenham Hotspur's sponsors, or Families of players and staff, and even many of them are familiar with each other, such as Ribery's wife Wahiba.

Tottenham Hotspur fans are all white, while Bayern Munich's South Stand is blood red. The colors of the two sides are very opposite. In the neutral stand, you can also see a lot of red and white mixed in it. One of them is estimated to be as much as Nearly a thousand fans formed a white phalanx. They displayed banners in Chinese and a large photo of Ye Qiu.

There are many Chinese students studying abroad in Germany. Not only that, many Chinese fans are going to Munich to watch the game before the game, and they all go to get tickets and tickets through the Tottenham Hotspur fans club in China. It was preparatory, so they sat together after entering the stadium, but the organization was poor.

The fans of Bayern Munich are very organized. Maybe the Germans have this kind of organization, so the slogans they shouted are very loud, especially when combined with the rhythmic drums, it is very impressive. The whole blood was full of excitement and excitement, and the whole momentum was deafening and powerful.

In the blood red of the North Stand, between the ground floor stand and the second floor stand, a very long slogan was hung, which read in German, "Our city, our stadium, our trophy!"

The fans of Tottenham Hotspur were obviously not prepared to make such a big deal. After all, it is very troublesome to carry such a long slogan, but they quickly gave another way to deal with it, which is to piece together .

"Your city! Your stadium! Our trophy!"

Tottenham Hotspur fans also hung three slogans written in English between the ground floor and the second floor stands, which happened to be a counterattack to the Bayern Munich fans, and this slogan was immediately booed by the Bayern Munich fans Shouts and insults, the whole stadium became noisy and powerful.

Ye Qiu and Heynckes stood on the sidelines. The latter was already 67 years old, while Ye Qiu was not yet 37. There was indeed a large age gap between the two, but in terms of fame and influence, Heynckes was not as good as Ye Qiu, but the latter respects Heynckes very much.

At least the German coach's coaching ability is quite good.

In fact, this also indirectly proves one thing, that is, many so-called famous coaches may not be so good, and many real masters are not famous. They may be due to opportunities, personalities, or other reasons. , causing them to lose their reputation, or stay in the middle and lower reaches of the team for the rest of their lives.

But the capabilities of these men cannot be denied.

Humility, this has always been Ye Qiu's quality that is highly praised by the outside world.

Even in such a critical battle of needlepoint against maimang, even though Ye Qiu shouted confident slogans and declarations before the match, when he met Heynckes, he took the initiative to step forward to challenge his senior. Greetings, but the two of them still had more polite conversations, after all, they were not familiar with each other before.

If it was Ferguson, Wenger, Guardiola, Benitez, etc., or even Mourinho, Ye Qiu should have more to say to them, but Heynckes has a serious relationship with him. generation gap.

When Ye Qiu was walking back, he happened to see the slogan written by Tottenham Hotspur fans in the opposite north stand, and then turned his head to look at the slogan of Bayern Munich in the south stand. , because they have no way to modify the slogan.

"The old man's hands are quite strong!" Ye Qiu moved his right hand. When he shook hands with Heynckes just now, he felt that the other party was a little hard.

"He should be trying to show you off!" Roland joked with Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu chuckled, "I think he's nervous!"

Both Roland and Mauro Tassotti laughed. Although Heynckes had won a Champions League with Real Madrid, it was very dangerous to win that championship.

Many people say that this season's Champions League final is very similar to the Champions League final of the 97/98 season. Heynckes led Real Madrid to face the mighty Juventus, but now Heynckes leads Bayern Munich. That's right, the mighty Tottenham Hotspur, so Heynckes said before the game that he is confident that history will repeat itself.

However, Juventus was defeated by Mijatovic's key lore, but now, who will become Bayern Munich's Mijatovic?Gomez?Or Thomas Muller?

Ye Qiu turned his head and glanced at the analysis team in the back row of the coach's bench. They were all ready, then looked at the time on the watch on his wrist, turned his head to Roland and said, "Start preparing!"

"Okay!" Fatty Luo agreed, left the court early, and went back to the locker room.
