The Ball at Your Feet

: 238 The Final Transfer

As soon as the group stage came out, there was a lot of discussion throughout France.

Among the three teams representing France in the Champions League, the best grouping is naturally Lyon, who is a second-tier team. They are in Group A. The four teams in the group are Bayern, Anderlecht, and the Celtics.

The first team of this team is Bayern Munich, relatively speaking, it is the weakest team in the first team. Although Bayern's points are very high, but because the European war points are counted for five years, their points this year include the second runner-up in 1999 and the Champions League in 2001. More points are earned a few years earlier. However, Bayern has changed their blood in the past two years. Judging from their performance in the past two years, it is not always clear who will win or lose when they meet Lyon, and the record of Ligue 1 and Bundesliga this year has always been on par with the Bundesliga. , Against them, Leon is not ashamed. And the other two teams in this group probably don't have the strength to compete with the first two teams. Upsets are difficult to happen, and it should be safe for Lyon to qualify.

And Marseille in Group F will be a little depressed. In their group, there are La Liga champions Real Madrid and Portuguese Super League champions Porto. They are the third team of Marseille, and it is difficult to win against these two teams. The only advantage is that the last team, Partizan Belgrade, has the lowest points in the European war among the 32 teams. But even so, a group of four teams, all of which are traditionally powerful in Europe, is still a relatively rare grouping. The media have predicted that because the Eastern European team has fallen, the Belgrade guerrillas may not be very strong. Not surprisingly, Marseille can start preparing for the Europa League.

For Monaco in Group C, luck is hard to say. In the group, although the first-tier team's Deportivo and the second-tier team's Eindhoven have the lowest points among the first-tier teams, the strength is not the worst. The strength of Super Deportivo is definitely the top five in a team. Although it is not as famous as Bayern and Arsenal, there are more highlights in the European war.

However, in comparison, this is indeed a good grouping: Although Deportivo de La Coruña has performed exceptionally in the Champions League in recent years, repeatedly defeating Juventus, Manchester United and other superpowers, but it has performed against Ligue 1 teams. But it has always been bad. The 01-02 season group match was tied by Lille at home and away, and the 02-03 season group match was cut 3:1 by Lens. Against them, Monaco will not completely lose the opportunity.

Eindhoven was the champion team of the Eredivisie last season, and their performance is quite good. This season, they also won the Dutch Super Cup. But like Monaco, they are also a rising team. Although they have more experience in the Champions League, they are not much better. It is not impossible to beat PSV and grab the right to qualify.

And even if it fails, there should be a Europa League to play. The third team in this group is AEK Athens. Second place in the Greek League last season. Relatively speaking, they still have to fight better. What's more, AEK Athens has not won one of the 18 European matches in the past three years. It can be called a model of European soy sauce. The reason why they can still be divided into three teams in the Champions League is purely based on It is the background of adding elements to the league and playing the Champions League for many years. At this time, the Greek League is the sixth league in Europe, and the European Championship points are even higher than the Portuguese Super League and the Eredivisie. Their European Cup a year later, it is not all luck. The vigorous development of the domestic league is also an important reason— -Moreover, Monaco also has Zicos who joined AEK Athens in the Monaco lineup. Knowing them well enough, losing to AEK Athens is unlikely.

"The group draw is still good for us," Deschamps, who returned to the team, told the players about the idea. "Of course it is not particularly advantageous, but if the first grade team really draws Bayern Munich, the second grade. If the team drew Inter Milan, then only cheating...we have a chance, that's enough. But whether you can turn the chance into a real victory is up to you."

Bayern Munich is going downhill, and Inter Milan's annual change of players has long been no news. In Deschamps' view, they are drawn to be considered as a sign. Deportivo and Eindhoven, although not completely without opportunities, they are not very good either. After all, Monaco has too little experience in the European war.

But at this point, Deschamps patted his head again, "Oh, yes, it's not just your business. Soon, we will welcome a new player. Morientes, finally joined Monaco on loan."

----------------------------

In the summer of 2003, before the transfer period closed, Morientes was finally able to leave Real Madrid and join Monaco.

This is not the first time he has been mentioned to leave Real Madrid. Florentino has always wanted to sell him. But it is not very appropriate to say that this is to eliminate dissidents. In fact, in the era of the last Real Madrid chairman Sanz, Sanz wanted to sell him. His looks are not good-looking, and his life is low-key and he is not liked by the media. His state is a bit fluctuating, coupled with more injuries, his status in Real Madrid has never been a symbol of the team's level.

At first, he relied on scoring to justify his name, but later, the media and Real Madrid's attitude towards him was so bad that he even broke the La Liga record for a single goal and scored five in a game. When playing the ball, reporters will ask him in person, "If Portillo replaces you in the start, will the goal be more beautiful than you? ’This kind of **** question comes.

Although he helped Real Madrid win three championships and scored a lot of goals at all, he was never welcomed by Real Madrid. After all, Real Madrid’s No. 9 belongs to Stefano, Sandiana, Hugo Sanchez, Morientes, compared with them, a bit bleak.

Since Ronaldo joined last year, his transfer has been regarded as a major event by Real Madrid. In 2002, Real Madrid wanted to sell him to the struggling Barcelona in the league. In order to get him to agree to transfer to his rivals, Florentino also specially talked to him and explained to him the feelings behind Real Madrid and Barcelona. There is no estrangement, like a family brotherhood in La Liga... If it weren't for Hierro, Raul and Guti's three-generation captain combined to force the palace and strongly urged Morientes to stay. He is now a Barcelona player.

And this summer, his transfer has been in constant negotiation. Because there was almost no chance last year, he was excluded by the Spanish national team. This kind of encounter was a bit unacceptable for him, and he also began to tempted to go to other places to fight for himself a ticket to the 2004 European Cup. And this summer another event accelerated the process: his agent Carvajal is also Casillas’s economy, Casillas asked Real Madrid for a high salary, but was rejected, for the sake of Carvajal. Putting pressure on, Real Madrid stated that anyone can take Morientes away for as long as 10 million euros.

In order to let him go, Real Madrid also mobilized the Spanish media to accuse Real Madrid of the emergence of'local gangs' that exclude foreign players. These people make the superstars unhappy: and the arrow points directly to Morientes, identifying him as the Real Madrid dressing room. The big cancer.

There is no place to keep your master here. Tottenham, Inter Milan, Schalke 04 are all thinking about introducing him this summer. But on the one hand, his salary was a bit high. On the other hand, in order to return to the national team, he was also picky about his own game environment. As a result, he could not sign successfully until the end of the transfer period. Schalke 04 and his negotiations have been talking about August 28th, still failed to persuade him to cut his salary to join, and finally had to break down. Real Madrid, in anger, simply agreed to Monaco’s rent-and-buy, and rented him to Monaco for free, and also took on 60% of his salary. At the same time, he didn’t even sign an evasion clause—Real Madrid didn’t even realize it. , This will be what a laughingstock and disaster.

And Monaco, who successfully got the front line reinforcement, finally completed the improvement of the lineup at this time.

Although Deschamps said that Morientes would not participate in the team's training until September, after the draw was over, Morientes ran to Monaco during the match on August 30. He also watched the game between Monaco and Metz in the stands.

It's just that this game is really lackluster. Against the relegation team Metz, Deschamps did not let the team use excessive force. There are too many games this season and they need to learn how to distribute their physical strength. In the game, the starting center was Adebayor, a player from Metz. He also scored the only goal for the Monaco team, allowing the Monaco team to successfully score another three-pointer with a score of 1:0.

After this game, Morientes directly visited the dressing room of the Monaco team. Surprisingly, he came to Monaco with him, as well as Real Madrid's captain Raul.

"I don't know, did we buy Raul?" Deschamps couldn't help teasing when he saw Raul, "Buy one get one free is indeed a good deal..."

"I also want to join Monaco, but not this time. I just sent Morrow over." Raul laughed and said.

"Then I might have to say, Moreau, your driver played well." Jiuli also stepped forward and greeted Raul, "I didn't expect you to come to see him."

Although many people say that Morientes and Raul are good friends, no one knows what kind of scenes and words are there on the football field, and how their relationship is. But now, as the captain of Real Madrid, Raúl can send Morientes from Madrid all the way to Monaco. This friendship is really moving.

It seems that it is not impossible to cut the salary of each other for what couple tattoos are talking about. Jiuli turned his thoughts in his heart, and also looked at the ankles of the two people, to see if there were indeed the legendary flower and flower bud tattoos.

"His driver is not only good at playing football. If he is bullied here, you will find that his driver is also good at fighting." Raul patted Jiuli and greeted everyone one by one." This old friend of mine is too simple, honest, and clumsy. When you get here, you have to take care of him. Believe me~www.ltnovel.com~ he is a good striker, as long as you can treat him well, he will Can bring you goals and championships."

"League champion, or Champions League champion?" Jiuli joked.

Raul thought for a moment, "It's best if you all take it. Real Madrid will have a chance to take it in the future, but this season, if Moreau can prove himself, it would be much better than us winning the championship."

"Raul!" Morientes interrupted him, "Don't talk nonsense, you are the captain of Real Madrid. How could Real Madrid not win the championship?"

Deschamps looked at the two people, and smiled in his heart: Raul really is a very good man. In the Monaco team, a few words please everyone. It's always not tiring to speak, what's the big deal about supporting the opponent to win the championship in front of other teams?

And Morientes is really a bit clumsy... It's him who wants to transfer over, so why is he saying good things for Real Madrid, he is not afraid to offend the new teammates?

"I just said, this guy is an idiot, right? It's something that ordinary people can do if you can provoke the whole team of the new team in one sentence? Such a guy, if you take him seriously, you guys Can you be anxious?"

Raul's teasing made Morientes blush, but the Monaco players all laughed. Raul's ridicules really made their anger disappear.

"Okay, I won't say much, you know this guy yourself." Before leaving, Raul hugged Morientes again, "Brother, I won't be by your side anymore, so be careful about everything. The players here are good, you will not suffer. Play well, play well, let the whole of Europe see, my brother Morientes, is the best scorer in Europe, definitely qualified to play the main force in any team! I'm in Madrid, waiting for you to come back, and we want to create greater glory for Madrid together!"
