In fact, the group match between Lazio and Valencia has been hyped by the media since the draw results came out. Especially the local media in Valencia.
It has been two years since Chang Sheng left Valencia, but his influence in Valencia is still great, especially when Valencia's results were poor, everyone here missed him.
Even if Flores leads Valencia to regain the Champions League qualification, he still lives in the shadow of constant victory, which is enough to explain the problem.
As the game approached, the media hype expanded not only to Valencia but also to the entire Spain, Italy and the European continent.
A week before the start of the game, the British Sky TV produced a program to review the past events between Chang Sheng and Valencia. All the materials were edited from TV media reports at the time.
They made a panoramic review of the entire three seasons from when Chang Sheng signed with Valencia to when he left Valencia.
The Chinese media is not to be outdone. After all, Chang Sheng is Chinese.
China Central Television's football program "Tianxia Football" also specially produced a special program to allow fans and viewers to once again review every bit of Chang Sheng's time in Valencia. The program continued the usual sensational style of "Tianxia Football", and the program China appeared many times
Such as "There are no faults in the story of Chang Sheng and the Bat Army, only misses" and "When Chang Sheng decided to announce his departure on the news after the Champions League final, we didn't know how much pressure he was under.
After what kind of fierce battle?" "Time flies, the fireworks are easy to cool, and the determination to win has caused huge damage to both sides. Those of us who once expected them to last forever can only sigh..." Such lines
.
The French reporter "L'Equipe" came directly to Chang Sheng to interview him.
As for other media, most of them use Valencia's current situation to compare with Lazio's current situation.
This is the most convincing and intuitive.
Of course, it is also the most popular.
It is completely different from those tender memories. This approach is to open Valencia's wounds again and display them bloodyly in front of everyone, telling them what Valencia looks like with and without constant victory.
of!
"When Chang was in Valencia, he brought many young players to Valencia and then trained them. These players he trained helped Valencia win honors, but after he left, these players naturally
They were all sold by Soler. Deco and Ronaldinho went to Barcelona, Reyes was sold to Arsenal, Carvalho and Ferreira went to Chelsea, and Arbeloa went to
Liverpool, Milito was sold to Zaragoza..."
"Soler almost completely dismantled Valencia in the regular era into the most basic screws and other parts. But selling so many players did not alleviate the team's debt crisis much. All the money was spent on
Where? The salary to hire a head coach, and the liquidated damages required to fire them. Of course, Soler also brought some players to Valencia, but no matter who they were, they did not achieve the usual achievements.
and status. Many players spent huge sums of money to buy them, but did not get a few playing opportunities, or they were hurriedly frozen after playing only a few games, but their wages still had to be paid, so..."
"Look at what Valencia was like when Chang left, and then look at what Lazio was like after Chang arrived. I think Lotito really made a good deal, and compared with him, Soler is simply
Like an idiot with a negative IQ! Every home game, Valencia fans will spontaneously sing songs that insult Soler in the stands. Soler once wanted to take these fans to court——
It’s really ridiculous. The president of the club told the fans of his team that it’s no wonder Valencia has fallen into such a state under Soler’s leadership..."
"Valencia fans welcomed Chang's return to Valencia with Lazio. They all said that they had been looking forward to this day for a long time. It's a pity that Chang came back as a guest and not as a return guest.
From the coaching bench..."
…
In addition, the "curse of constant winning" is also a topic of great interest to everyone.
After Chang Sheng left Valencia, he once said that as long as Soler is still the chairman of Valencia, Valencia will not be able to win the championship honors, no matter how big or small, Valencia will not get any championship honors.
At first, everyone thought Chang Sheng was just talking angrily and didn't take it seriously.
Later, when everyone discovered that Valencia really hadn't won a championship, they realized that something seemed wrong...
Only then did someone translate Chang Sheng’s words again and take a look...
Isn't this a curse?
So Chang Sheng's words were upgraded from "angry words" to "curses".
Some people are unhappy with Chang Sheng because of this. They feel that Chang Sheng has already left, so how can he still talk about his former club like this?
When you go to a new place, you complain about your former employer. Isn’t this a matter of character?
But the problem is that what Chang Sheng said is correct, and he didn't take the initiative to curse his old club. If Soler hadn't wanted to put all the blame on him...
Besides, Chang Sheng is a controversial person to begin with. He has never been recognized as a good person, but he is also not recognized as a bad person.
Controversy always accompanies him and never stops for a moment. As many people like her as there are people who hate him.
Chang Sheng doesn't care if someone scolds him for cursing his old club and having a bad character. He doesn't need to be responsible for those who scold him.

Two days before the start of the game, the French newspaper L'Equipe published an exclusive interview with Chang Sheng by their reporter.
In the exclusive interview, Chang Sheng showed off his personal charm, which are the qualities that make some people hate him but fascinate others.
In the interview, he spoke sharply and had witty remarks. Maybe you can't agree with what he said, but you have to admire his sharp language, which always has the power to touch people's hearts.
This may be why his team can always maintain high morale.
At the end of the interview, the reporter from "Team Daily" mentioned the unique aspect of Chang Sheng in the interview note: "Many coaches can manage themselves. They know what the media and the public want to hear, so they say what they say. Open the newspaper
, you will see nonsense throughout, 'We played very well... we are about to participate in another big game... hope we can win... the important thing is the performance of the team...' As far as the interview routine is concerned
, indeed perfect. This kind of nonsense often satisfies the interviewer. Some newspapers and TV stations hardly care about the content of Du Yu’s interviews. They just want - or seem to just want - to let the audience know that they have interviewed. Because of simplicity
Just interviewing celebrities is enough to attract attention..."
"To be honest, I went there with this mentality at first. But Chang is not such a person. He communicated with me very frankly and shared his views on certain things without reservation. He never tried to hide his opinions.
Real thoughts, or lying to me. This surprised me. Because I think lying to the camera should be a required course for celebrities... These celebrities will package themselves into the most completely popular mode, such as
They seem polite at all times, but when everyone else is like this, I think you'll go crazy..."
"Chang has never tried to do this. He has never packaged himself. I think who he is in daily life is who he is in the media. But we may have become accustomed to wearing a mask and saying hypocritical things, so in front of us
When dealing with such a naked person, he seems at a loss, even panicked. There are many misunderstandings and slanders about him in the media, which is abnormal. What appears in front of us is just a person with his own joys and sorrows,
Normal people can make mistakes according to their own principles. Normal people do not need to be discredited and should not be misunderstood."
"Finally, let me tell you one thing - in the interview, we talked about Valencia and Soler, and he often said to me: 'Soler is a son of a bitch!' When I was dumbfounded, he also said
He said to me: 'Don't delete what I just said, just post it like this.' Now that I'm posting the original text, I think when he scolded Soler, he might still be hiding his love for Valencia... But
The way he expresses this kind of love will definitely be unacceptable to many people, and may even cause misunderstandings. But he never wants to change anything and continues to go his own way. This is Chang, a collection of contradictions full of controversy. I hope this interview can
Helps you watch that midweek game…”
Excerpts from the interview:
Reporter: "When they heard that you were going to lead the team back to Mestalla, the Valencia fans were very happy. It seems that although there are a lot of arguments about you from the outside world, in the teams you have coached, you
His popularity is quite good. Why is this?"
Winning: "It's simple, because I can bring them championships."
Reporter: "So, what do you think of this kind of welcome?"
Chang Winning: "Thanks to them, the fans of Valencia are very lovely. But I'm sorry, my team came to Valencia to take away the victory. I will not show mercy."
Reporter: "Is this because of Soler..."
Winning: "Soler is a son of a bitch, no doubt about it. But it has nothing to do with him, I'm just chasing wins. Just like I did when I coached Valencia. Facing opponents, winning
Victory, this is my style. I will not treat my opponents differently..."
Reporter: "Is it really not possible?"
Chang Sheng (shaking his head): "No way."
Reporter: "Maybe this will make the Valencia fans sad."
"I'm sorry, but victory is my belief, and I will not betray my belief."
Chang Sheng said.
