Chapter 977 The Trent Cup of Expanding the Army
? Compared with the eight clubs last season, the two more clubs this time are the Brazilian champions Corinthians and the Premier League giants Chelsea.
The reason why I chose these two among the many clubs that applied for the competition is that on the one hand, Chelsea is a top European team and deserves its name, and although Corinthians may not be as strong as the top European giants, they come from the football of the Brazilian League. Kingdoms, to Europeans, are still quite mysterious, and they are also great for increasing their influence.
Judging from the business operations before the game, the Trent Cup has expanded its scale and its influence has further expanded, which has greatly increased the income of the Trent Cup. The income of each club can reach more than 350w.
No one will think that this income is as tasteless as mosquito legs. Even a club that earns more than 100 million yuan every season will cherish it very much. You know, this is extra income in addition to the major income.
It's no wonder FIFA is jealous, such a game is in their hands, and the income is enough for them to eat.
Of course, the most important thing is the warm-up effect. There are different strong teams and giants who are the best sparring partners. Such a good opportunity is not so easy to get.
The previous grouping was based on the UEFA club rankings, but this time it was changed to the FIFA rankings because of Corinthians’ participation.
Notts County, Inter Milan, Juventus, Be Weilun and Corinthians are in Group A, and the other five clubs are in Group B. The fight between them is far more difficult than the Champions League group stage. people look forward to.
Perhaps out of shame and courage, Notts County has entered a state from the first game, far from the bad start of last season, and won all four group matches cleanly, even if it was the opponent of last season's Champions League final, International. Milan were not able to cause too much trouble to Notts County, and successfully qualified for the top of the group.
However, David did not come to watch these group matches in person. After returning to England, David stayed with Miranda in the manor, waiting for the arrival of the babies. For him, this time was the most important event in his life. Even Notts County, which had always occupied the most important place in his heart, had to take a back row.
Of course, David was still present in the final. I don’t know if his presence made the players more excited. In short, the game went well, and Chelsea did not prevent Notts County from winning the championship.
The Trent Cup came to a successful conclusion, and the strength displayed by Notts County made everyone feel terrified. It seems that the Notts County that caused a bloody storm in Europe a season ago is back.
David could not laugh or cry when he saw the good state of Notts County.
I don't know why, Notts County has become so extreme now. Last season started life and death without form, and this season has not started yet, but the state is already full. Is this a good thing or a bad thing.
Now that you are out of shape so early, will it disappear without a trace at the end of the season?
David doesn't know, but this is just speculation, maybe it won't happen!
After the Trent Cup, the Notts County team will have a two-day holiday. The long training and competition will make the players physically and mentally tired, and it is very important to rest.
However, although there is no need to participate in training these two days, the players of Notts County need to participate in some public welfare activities, which is also a consistent tradition of Notts County.
The players are divided into two groups, one part takes part in community activities, while the other part plays games with elementary school students.
It is also a coincidence that the group of players who played with the primary school students actually met a group of players from Nottingham Forest in the school. Obviously, they have the same purpose as Notts County.
Speaking of it, Nottingham Forest has not had a good time after being relegated. Last season, they didn't even get a place in the Championship for promotion. However, Nottingham Forest still has a certain foundation in Nottinghamshire. Many older people are them. fans.
However, among the group of primary school students, Notts County is obviously more popular. After the Notts County team members came, all the students gathered around here, asking their idols to autograph and take a photo. They even played against Nottingham Forest. The kid with the ball also dropped the game and ran all over this side.
The players of Nottingham Forest looked at the empty stadium, feeling sad and aggrieved. How could they say they are also stars, and now they are thrown aside like garbage by primary school students. Such a tragic fact is really discouraging.
Looking at the Notts County players again, the eyes are full of hatred. This hatred is even comparable to killing a wife and taking a child. If the Notts County players did not come, they would not be in their current embarrassing situation. They really hate it!
But the Nottingham players did not take the distant Nottingham Forest players seriously, as if the Eagles would never take the sparrows as an opponent.
Maybe a few seasons ago, Nottingham Forest was still the rival of Notts County, but now, the same city is still the same city, and the rival is far from being the same, because Nottingham Forest is no longer worthy of being the rival of Notts County, Notts County. The opponents are those giants who are aiming for the Champions League!
######
After the two-day holiday, the players regrouped for the final preparations. In another week, the season will officially kick off, starting with the Community Shield.
The start of the season is imminent, and the media have also begun to look forward to this season. Among them, there is no doubt that Notts County is still the biggest favorite to win the championship.
In terms of the Premier League, I am afraid that the small groups that really rush to the championship are still Notts County and Chelsea. The other four teams in the BIG6 will compete for two Champions League places.
Although Chelsea didn't make a lot of money this summer, Klinsmann's team has already completed the tactical run-in last season. The summer signings are just targeted reinforcements, not a major adjustment to the lineup. In the new season, Chelsea There is a chance to complete the defense of the Premier League title, and it is not without the possibility of reaching the end in the Champions League.
Of course, judging from the current state, Notts County is still the biggest favorite to win the championship, and their main lineup will be completely retained in the new season to challenge the championship on the double front.
After the introduction of stars such as Torres, Liverpool's lineup has been greatly enhanced, and with the addition of Benitez, a tactician, it is considered to be the most likely club to complete a counterattack against Chelsea and Notts County in the new season, but The thickness of their roster remains the biggest problem they face.
Arsenal sold the super striker Henry, and their strength will inevitably decrease. It is very likely that they will lose the qualification for the Champions League in the new season, but they are very competitive in the Champions League.
Manchester United has made a lot of money in the summer, and the Glazer family has already bleeded. Although the strength of the lineup is still unable to compete with Notts County and Chelsea, they are fully capable of competing for a Champions League qualification. focus on the Premier League.
As for Tottenham, a new member of BIG6, the lineup configuration is already higher than that of Manchester United and Arsenal, but in the first season, it will be more to run in the lineup position. Under the situation that the general trend of the Premier League has almost taken shape, the Murdoch family is amazing. They may not be able to do much, they are probably still the weakest one in the BIG6. (To be continued.)
