Many Chinese fans know and even like Middlesbrough, which was in the 1997 summer of the riverside stadium.
In the 1996-97 season, captain and coach Brian Robson led the Premier League powerhouse Middlesbrough. At that time, the team included Italy's "Bald-Headed" Lavanelli, Brazil's No. 10 Juininho, who would be in the continental world in the future.
Emerson, Brazilian demon guard Blanco, who made a stunning free kick against the Netherlands in 1994, as well as many famous British players such as Festa and Stamp, have a very luxurious lineup.
That season, Middlesbrough's offensive style was pleasing to the eye and was a rare technical school in the Premier League at that time. It was ranked fourth when the first half of the schedule was the highest.
But at the end of the season, Middlesbrough, who had insufficient stamina, was trapped in the quagmire of relegation. Fortunately, the team reached the finals of the FA Cup and League Cup, which was very inspiring. Miburg was also called "Sounding".
For 'The greatest relegation team in the Premier League'.
Mibaoren is looking forward to winning the domestic Cup doubles and successfully relegated to the Premier League.
On April 25, 1997, Middlesbrough lost 0:1 to Martin O'Neal in the rematch of the League Cup final, and Leicester City, which owns Husky, won the second place in the League Cup;
On May 17, 1997, Middlesbrough lost 0:2 to Chelsea, coached by Gullit, in Wembley's FA Cup final, and won the second place in the FA Cup;
On May 11, 1997, in the last round of the Premier League in 1996-97, Middlesbrough tied Leeds United 1:1, and finally ranked second to last and was relegated.
Reverse hat trick! Unique in world football.
The Riverside Stadium sang in unison to see off the team on that day. The fans' eyes were filled with tears, and the players also cried. The tears moved many irrelevant people.
20 years have passed, and Mibao has been ups and downs in the Championship and Premier League during this period. He also reached the UEFA Cup final in 2006, but was massacred by Sevilla 4:0.
Last season, Mibao returned to the Premier League as the second place in the English Championship. In terms of lifting experience, I, Mibao, don’t accept anyone.
In the 11th round of the 2016-17 Premier League season, Manchester City's opponent at home was Middlesbrough, who was not convinced by anyone.
After the first ten rounds of matches, Mibao won 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses and had 10 points, so he stayed close to the relegation zone, but they must be experienced and not worried.
Among the rice castle, Zhuo Yang has two acquaintances.
Spanish defender Eto Carlanca played for Real Madrid for five years while playing football. After retiring in 2006, he joined Castia base and became Real Madrid's youth training coach. Later, he briefly coached Real Madrid's second team.
In the summer of 2010, Mourinho took over as Real Madrid head coach, and Kalanca was promoted to chief assistant coach, and was considered an important figure in the team.
But in Mourinho's struggle with the players over the years, Kalanka decisively stood on Mourinho's side and did a lot of informed reports, so he was very evil. Cassi, Shui Ye, Ronaldo and others
Help the boss, but not Zhuo Yang.
Mourinho went to Chelsea after class. He had his own private team. Kalanca, the real Madrid direct descendant, did not follow him. According to tradition, Kalanca should have continued to enter Ancelotti's coaching staff, but the locker room was large
The guys didn't like him and collectively told Lafayette that he didn't want to see Kalanka again.
Chairman Florentino finally took good care of it. Not to mention the first team, even the second team and the youth team were not easy to go back. In addition, Mourinho encouraged him to go solo and coach independently, so Caranca simply left.
Real Madrid.
In November 2013, Kalanca took office as the English Championship, coaching and led the team back to the Premier League after the end of last season.
The other one is even more destined to be together.
In early 2014, Barcelona meritorious goalkeeper Victor Valdes, who had played for 15 years, was not recognized by senior executives in the contract extension contract, that is, he did not agree to the salary requirement, and felt despised, so he terminated the renewal negotiations and announced the end of the season.
Later he left Barcelona as a free agent.
I was tired of each other and broke up. The Barcelona executives did not try to keep them anymore, but quickly began to find a new goalkeeper.
Valdes, who was 32 years old at the time, was still first-class, and his free agent status was quite attractive, so he naturally would not lack suitors. Soon, he signed a naive agreement with Monaco.
But then in the 30th round of La Liga match against Celta, Valdes saved the opponent's free kick and pinned his leg and tore his right knee anterior cruciate ligament.
The career prospects have come to a big question mark. Prince Elgure of Monaco is not a philanthropist, so the agreement was immediately invalidated. Valdes also kept recuperating until October. After recovering from injury, no team dared to ask him again.
Sir Ferguson was kind-hearted and invited him to Carrington base for restorative training. In January 2015, Van Gaal saw that he had succeeded, so he signed Valdes in the winter window and asked him to substitute De Ge Adam.
But soon Valdes had a falling out with Van Gaal because Master Fan asked him to participate in the U21 competition and don't come back if you have nothing to do.
The tiger fell into Pingyang and was bullied by another tiger. Valdes was a stubborn temper. After he scolded him, he stopped the game directly. Van Gaal said, as long as I stayed at Manchester United for one day, you can't think of a day of success, stop three times until the end of the day
.
But Master Fan himself couldn't hold on for long. Although Mourinho had a grudge against Valdes, he could not do such a desperate thing. With a wave of his hand, Manchester United let Valdes go.
Speaking of this, I have to admit that Mourinho is sometimes quite manly.
That year, Mourinho's Inter Milan eliminated Barcelona at the Camp Nou, which was the time when Xiao Bu covered his face. After the game, he was angrily scolded by the violent Valdeska with his neck because of a provocative celebration.
That was the most embarrassing time Mourinho was given in public, and later he went to Real Madrid, and Valdes liked to mess with him in the media among Barcelona players.
But Mourinho is really a bachelor. After coming to Manchester United, he not only gave Valdes freedom, but also recommended him to Middlesbrough with his intimate personal friendship with Kalanca.
Life is just a one-way street, and there is no chance to make a new choice. I don’t know if Valdes can return to the Camp Nou on April 28, 2010, and will he still pinch Mourinho’s neck, or if he
I regretted leaving Barcelona in anger the previous year, and I couldn't even be sure whether Valdes was so grateful to Mourinho.
But now Middlesbrough’s main goalkeeper Valdes and Guardiola have a sincere relationship. In Barcelona’s locker room back then, Valdes was Guardiola’s confidant.
Old friends gathered in the Premier League. When they recalled those glorious years, things and people were unrest, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Valdes looked at Zhuo Yang again, and it felt like he was a different life.
"Pep, Lao Zhuo, let's get together after the competition."
"Good idea." Guardiola said: "Zhuo Yang, please arrange it. You are familiar with these things, and I don't know anything."
"Okay. There is a Spanish seafood on Elland Road, with Mediterranean flavor, and the roasted snails are also awesome. The boss and the chef are both Barcelona."
