Chapter 33 The Monaco Tigers Are Coming

Since the Qatari consortium took over, Paris Saint-Germain has started a dynasty mode in Ligue 1, continuously "spending money", making Paris stronger and stronger, and acting as a bully to other opponents in Ligue 1.
Basically every season, ranking first from the beginning until winning the championship early in the end, it was just a matter of 10 points or 20 points ahead of second place. Last season, Paris ended up leading second place Lyon by 31 points.
Paris Saint-Germain alone is the French Super League.
However, perhaps because of the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who represented the first phase of Paris Saint-Germain, the Ligue 1 world is in complete chaos this season. After 25 games, Paris Saint-Germain’s butt has not yet sat on the top spot. The first position
Being snatched away by other teams and taking turns to blossom, there is nothing wrong with Paris.
Starting from the 20th round, Monaco ranks first.
As third in Ligue 1 last season, Monaco, like Manchester City, which ranked fourth in the Premier League, entered the Champions League through the play-offs this season. Compared with Manchester City's opponent Steaua Bucharest, Monaco squeezed out a more powerful player in the play-offs.
Villarreal.
In the group stage, Monaco's Group E is called this year's 'Group of Death'. Tottenham, Bayer Leverkusen, and CSKA Moscow are all on paper close to each other. After a battle, Monaco
Tottenham qualified first in the group and went to the UEFA Cup.
Manchester City is only second in the group, so it is Blue Moon who is challenging Monaco.
There are three generations of old, middle and young people in Portuguese football, with ‘Black Panther’ Eusebio, Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo being the leading figures respectively. In fact, Portuguese coaches now also have three generations of old, middle and young people.
The most famous Mourinho is naturally the representative of the Mesozoic generation, while the old coach is led by the European Championship winning coach Fernando Santos. The representative of the new generation is no longer Villas-Boas.
The Chinese Super League has to make a living, but it is Monaco head coach Leonardo Jardim.
Jardim is one round younger than Mourinho. He has never played professional football. After completing the coaching course, in addition to coaching the youth team, women's football team, and even the handball team, his path is quite wild.
Fans may not pay much attention to the coach, but the professional football circle has long been very optimistic about Jardim. In the 2009-10 season, he led the then unknown Belmara to the Portuguese Super League, which attracted considerable attention in the industry.
It is said that Professor Wenger really hoped that Jardim would come to Arsenal to take over from him, and it was Wenger who recommended Jardim to Monaco after the change of ownership.
The royal family gave up and the Monaco club's equity changed hands, but compared to the new owner, the Russian tycoon Rybolovlev, coach Jardim is the one who truly leads Monaco's re-emergence.
After buying the team, Rybolovlev encountered a divorce dispute with his wife. Lao Maozi is a fighting nation, and Russian tough women are all hard-blooded real men. After the lawsuit? Yelena went straight from Rybonov
Lev took away more than 4 billion euros. This figure created a record for property division in divorce cases around the world.
Has the boss experienced this? He is not dead, but the expected trench purchase will never happen again.
Jardim built on the team's original skeleton, through tapping the potential and promoting young players from the youth training, and then using a small amount of money to buy some highly malleable potential stocks. Instead of letting Monaco sink in the turmoil, it actually rose steadily and became a
It can challenge the existence of Paris.
After Valentine's Day in 2017? Monaco came to the Manchester City Stadium? Compared with the slightly old-fashioned Manchester City, they are clearly a vibrant new force. Their temperament is very similar to Madiburg twelve years ago.
.
"Tiger, welcome to Manchester." Zhuoyang hugged "Tiger" Radamel Falcao tightly.
Falcao patted Zhuo Yang on the back hard and said with emotion: "Old Zhuo? This welcome should have happened three years ago, alas~"
"Tiger, look forward, now that I'm back? Isn't it great that you are also dominating Ligue 1 again?"
"Hahaha~~? Yes, hahaha..."
The Colombian tiger Falcao is only one year younger than Zhuo Yang. He became famous in the Ajia River Plate and became prominent in the Portuguese Super League Porto. He entered Atletico Madrid twice, which made him one of the top forwards in the world.
Atletico Madrid's center succession? After Torres, it's Diego Forlan? Then it's Falcao. After Tiger, there's Aguero, then there's the beauty Costa, and now it's Griezmann. They are all in perfect harmony.
Falcao's friendship with Zhuo Yang began in 2014. He was the first hero to respond to Zhuo Yang's "Heroes' Order" for the Brazil World Cup, besides Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Scar, and Neymar. Unfortunately, he suffered a serious knee injury.
As a result, he missed the trip to Brazil, and the 'Hero Order' was also lent to Ronaldo.
After the World Cup, it was Zhuoyang who "fooled" the Tigers, and he spent an extremely depressing season at Manchester United. In the summer of 2015, the four major losers dispersed, and Falcao also went to Chelsea, still on loan.
However, Falcao suffered another injury at the Blue Bridge and was sidelined for more than four months throughout the season. He did not play a few serious games at all. Last summer, Tiger returned to Monaco honestly, and after returning with his old qualifications, he wore
Got the captain's armband.
Falcao certainly did not blame Zhuo Yang for his unsuccessful two-year trip to the Premier League, but he also saw clearly that England was by no means a good place for him, and that he was more suitable for southern European football with a rich Latin flavor.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who has dominated Ligue 1 for five years, defected to Manchester United, finally allowing the shooters here to show their strong vitality this season. Monaco Falcao, Paris Cavani, Lyon Lacazette, Marseille veteran Gomi,
Nice Balotelli, five people are competing for the top scorer list.
Manchester City has been a team for 137 years, and Monaco has a history of more than a century. However, today's game is the first time in the history of the two century-old brands that they have played against each other. They have not even played a friendly match before.
The main reason for this is Manchester City. Who told us that we were not in shape before? Monaco has always been a powerhouse in Ligue 1.
Blue Moon has met Ligue 1 teams three times in its European history, three times with Paris Saint-Germain, two times last season, and one time in the 2009 UEFA Cup. Monaco has played against Premier League teams 16 times in Europe.
, and achieved a good record of 8 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses.
As long as they meet the Premier League in the knockout round, Monaco will definitely win. They eliminated Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal in the first three times. In this season's Champions League group stage, Monaco double defeated Tottenham.
In the Premier League this season, Manchester City faced Tottenham with one loss and one draw.
Of course, Guardiola was embarrassed today, not because he was afraid of Monaco, but because he was still angry that his team failed to win the English Championship team Huddersfield in the FA Cup three days ago.
Manchester City's semi-main lineup, led by Sergio Aguero, struggled hard for 90 minutes and was unable to defeat Huddersfield, and they didn't even have much advantage on the field. After a feeble 0:0, the two sides had to choose a rematch date.
How about you just be a little more cautious and lose? I won't worry about it anymore.
Bravo made two great saves in that game. Isn't he a regent?
The schedule is already too busy to open up, and now we have to find time to make up games. Those five guys are resting in vain.
Including Zhuo Yang, the five guys who were rested three days ago all started today.
Chapter completed!
