PS1: I continue to ask for recommendation votes here, saying that free books don’t require everyone to spend money, so it should be fine to give more recommendation votes? Thank you here~

PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.

Time always passes by quickly without realizing it. In the blink of an eye, April 2003 has entered. The Fiorentine players who have finished the national team competition mission have returned to the team and continue to prepare for the intense preparations.

Although due to the national team competition, most international players except Carlos and other a few physical monsters seemed quite tired, no one complained about being tired at this time, or simply gave up. Because the players knew very well that it had been the most critical period of the entire season.

If they can grit their teeth and survive this period and win several of the key games, then in May, the players will be able to see the trophy they have worked hard for for a season; and if they relax at this critical moment, then waiting for Florence to be on the verge of nothing.

Moreover, although Fiorentina has a huge point advantage in the league, Juventus and Inter Milan, now behind Purple Lily, still have the theoretical possibility of winning the championship. If Heinkes and his players are not careful and devote their energy to the Champions League too early without completely locking in the championship, then Leverkusen last season is their lesson.

Having said that, for Florence, which already has a very obvious advantage in the league, it is not a problem to give up one or two games occasionally for the European competition. After all, doing so will help the players maintain a good competitive state and avoid their condition being sluggish or even getting injured due to double matches and running around for a week.

Therefore, in order to prepare for the second round of the Champions League with Ajax, in the 27th round of Serie A three days ago, Fiorentina, who rotated most of the main players, was beaten by Lazio on the road and lost the game cleanly with a score of zero to three.

Although he suffered a defeat in the league battlefield, the Serie A is about to end in seven rounds. With Juventus, who is ranked second in the standings, a mere defeat will obviously not have much negative impact on Fiorentina's championship situation. After all, it is really unrealistic to make Fiorentina, which has not experienced a serious injury wave, lose a full 11 points in the last seven rounds.

It is precisely because of this that Lippi seemed to have given up the idea of ​​chasing and fighting hard behind Fiorentina, and instead focused his energy on the Champions League, intending to seek breakthroughs in the European arena to maintain his job.

"It seems that no matter what the result is, Ajax will definitely become the target of many giant clubs in the transfer market this summer." Zhuang Mingge, who was sitting in the VIP box at Frankie Stadium and was waiting for the start of the game, thought, "Being able to reach the quarterfinals in the Champions League with many strong people is enough to prove the strength of this Ajax team. It would be a strange thing if those team managers did not take action this summer."

"That's right, based on Ajax's outstanding performance in the European arena this season, those top giants will never give up on this fat meat in front of them." Karin nodded in agreement, "The only thing to guess now is how long will this Ajax be divided up? Is it taking four years like the champion team in 1995 to lose all the players, or will it complete this process in a shorter time?"

"It's true, it's all caused by the Boseman Act. If it weren't for the introduction of this bill, Ajax, who once dominated the European football world, wouldn't have fallen to this point." Zhuang Mingge was still very sympathetic to Ajax's various experiences after the arrival of the Boseman era. So even though Van Prag had always been alienating the connection between Florence under various excuses in recent years, he had never thought about how to deal with the other party. "Now, let's enjoy this Ajax's last group performance in the European arena. By the next season, I'm afraid there will not be many people staying in this team."

"Why, Tony, do you have no idea about these Ajax players?" At this time, Karin asked in a playful tone. After living with Zhuang Mingge for so many years, she could certainly hear the meaning of the other party's words. "In my opinion, Van der Fate and the Swedish striker named Ibrahimovic have great potential. If one of them can be brought to Fiorentina, it will definitely play a very positive role in improving the team's overall strength."

"How to say, Van der Fate and Ibrahimovic are indeed very talented young players. No matter which team gets them, their strength will increase a lot." However, Zhuang Mingge did not agree with Karin's proposal, "However, these two are arrogant. I think they may not accept the rotation or even the substitute position in Fiorentina. A main position or core treatment is what they really want."

Just as Zhuang Mingge and Karin were discussing the issues of Van der Fate and Ibrahimovic, players from both sides stepped onto the lawn of Frankie Stadium under the leadership of the referee.

"Tony, look at the players on both sides who walked out of the passage one after another, the sharp-eyed Karin found a slight difference. "It seems that Van der Fate did not start in this game, and the one who replaced him... was the player wearing the No. 37 jersey and named Sneider!"

"What did you say?!" Hearing Karin's words, Zhuang Mingge quickly picked up the telescope and looked at the sidelines, "I'll tell me, this guy Koeman is really brave enough to put Van der Fate on the bench on such a critical occasion and turn to the younger Sneider!"

What was surprised by this was not only the fans of both sides who watched the game on the sidelines, Zhuang Mingge and others, but even Heinx was shocked by Koeman's move. After all, compared with Van der Fate, who was already famous in Europe, Sneijd, who was born in 1984, was obviously more than the former. Moreover, in terms of ability, Sneijd, who had just entered the professional league, obviously could not be compared with Van der Fate, who had more than two years of professional competition experience.

It can be said that Koeman chose Sneider in this life-and-death battle rather than continuing to use the attack combination of Van der Fate and Ibrahimovic, which was something that no one expected.
