Episode【320】: Mr. Loya’s Comeback Is About to Happen
Yes, the 2009-2010 UEFA Champions League group draw ceremony is coming.
Before setting off, Albertini went to see Zhong Cheng. He wanted to see if Zhong Cheng had improved and whether he could go to Nyon, Switzerland in person.
Obviously, Albertini was blocked without even seeing Zhong Cheng.
Cristina and others did not let Albertini see Zhong Cheng at all to affect Zhong Cheng's cultivation. They left the club's affairs to Albertini and Trevor Birch.
However, Cristina and others sent a reply to Albertini, saying that Zhong Cheng was recovering well and would be better in a while.
Albertini didn't know what to say!
How long will it take again?
Now Albertini felt a lot of pressure, and he couldn't bear it anymore.
Only now does Albertini know how much pressure he carries when he truly becomes the head coach of a team. This is simply not a job that ordinary people can do. It is really very scary.
But now, Albertini admired Zhong Cheng even more.
Because he usually followed Zhong Cheng, Albertini never felt any excessive pressure on Zhong Cheng. He thought it was relatively relaxed.
Now it seems that Zhong Cheng is able to carry everything by himself without affecting the people around him, which is really amazing. But Albertini couldn't do it. Now the pressure on other coaches of the Leeds United Club is also very high.
Albertini clearly understood the gap between himself and Zhong Cheng.
Albertini felt that he should continue to study with Zhong Cheng. He still had a lot to learn.
Zhong Cheng is indeed no ordinary person!
Now think about the honors that Zhong Cheng has won before leading the team, and you will know how powerful Zhong Cheng is!
It had only been less than a month since Albertini had actually led the team, but now he felt pressure from all aspects and criticism from all aspects. These things made him very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
In the past, Zhong Cheng always took all kinds of pressure and criticism from around him on himself. Now imagine that Zhong Cheng is really awesome.
Albertini learned a lot from here.
Albertini also understood that he had a long way to go now!
Of course, Albertini became more calm and calm. The pressure was there, whether it was increasing or decreasing, it was still there. So why should I care so much?
At this time, you should face it calmly and do what you should do!
As for the rest, I can’t control that much!
But it was still very difficult for Albertini to really achieve what he wanted.
Of course, now is not the time to deal with these things. At this time, Albertini, Trevor Birch and others boarded and flew to UEFA's headquarters to participate in the group draw of this season's UEFA Champions League.
There were a lot of people going this time, a lot of staff, and a lot of players.
Leeds United goalkeeper Zhong Zheng, center back Kompany, and midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo all followed because they were nominated for the award.
The best lineup for last season's UEFA Champions League has been announced. The best lineup is as follows:
Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng
Back four [from left to right]: Patrick Evra, Kompany, John Terry and Gary Neville
Midfield four [from left to right]: Franck Ribery, Iniesta, Luka Modric and Cristiano Ronaldo
Two forwards: Leo Messi and Drogba
Yes, this is the best lineup of the UEFA Champions League last season, and there is also the second best and most versatile. At the same time, there are backup Van der Sar, Peter Cech and Valdes in the goalkeeper position.
These all go to the scene, because no one knows who will win the best player award at each position.
To be honest, the biggest winner of last season's Champions League was Leeds United.
It can be seen from the best lineup that Leeds United has a total of five players selected for this list, which is already very impressive. And it is very possible for these Leeds United players to win the award.
Therefore, this time, these Leeds United players went to the scene and were ready to receive the award.
Leeds United was very powerful last season and won the UEFA Champions League, which was beyond many people's expectations. Leeds United will become the defending champion in the new season, but now many people are not very optimistic about Leeds United.
Because Leeds United really have too many problems this season.
First of all, many of the main players of the Leeds United club have left. For example, the team’s main forward Diego Milito, main midfielder Luka Modric and others have left, as well as the main players. Full-back Glen Johnson and others, Leeds United are simply doomed.
Now adding to the core of Leeds United, the team’s chairman and head coach Zhong Cheng is injured and has not appeared in public for a month. Even this month there is no news about Zhong Cheng. Many people are speculating about Zhong Cheng. The injury is so serious that there is basically no way to come back this season.
Therefore, they believe that Leeds United is the weakest among the defending champions of the Champions League.
These people naturally do not think that Leeds United can successfully defend the UEFA Champions League. They even joked that Leeds United is the club that failed to defend the Champions League the fastest in the history of the UEFA Champions League. They have no hope of defending the title at all.
Yes, that’s what the outside media is saying now!
The outside world has reported this, and they all look down on Leeds United and think that Leeds United has not accomplished much this season.
Of course, they also believe that Leeds United played very well last season, and many awards should still belong to Leeds United.
When Albertini came to the scene, naturally many acquaintances came up to say hello.
To be honest, this shocked the media reporters at the scene, because Albertini seemed to be much more popular than Zhong Cheng. The head coaches of many clubs came to say hello to Albertini in person. This was not only the case in the Premier League teams, as well as the Italian League and even La Liga.
Albertini's popularity is really very, very good, which Zhong Cheng does not have.
Of course, at this time, more people still asked Albertini about Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng is the absolute core of Leeds United. They know that Leeds United is very strong. Of course, the premise is that Zhong Cheng comes back. If Zhong Cheng doesn't come back, Leeds United will have a toothless tiger and there is nothing to be afraid of.
Albertini naturally claimed that Zhong Cheng would come back as soon as possible and that he had recovered from his injuries quickly.
Of course, these people naturally don't believe it.
Yes, these people all thought Albertini was defrauding them. If Zhong Cheng is really close to returning from injury, why has there been no news for so long?
Zhong Cheng must be very seriously ill, otherwise how could this happen? Albertini is really not honest!
After arriving in Nyon, Switzerland, Albertini was surrounded by media reporters.
When facing media reporters, Albertini said this: "For this UEFA Champions League, we think it is good to be divided into any group. We are now the defending champions, and sooner or later we will encounter a very powerful team. Yes. Let’s just look at luck for this, whoever is assigned will be the winner!”
Many media outlets have pooh-poohed, "Isn't this nonsense?"
Doesn't this mean whoever is assigned is the one? Could it be that if you are assigned to Barcelona, can you still replace Barcelona? Albertini talks so interestingly!
Kelly Fox almost laughed out loud!
In the opinion of Carey Fox, Albertini should be relatively nervous now. This is the first time he has led a team to participate in the UEFA Champions League. And the more important thing is that he is not the team's head coach, but the acting head coach, that is, a temporary replacement. After Zhong Cheng comes back, he will have to give up the command.
Just because he didn't make the decision himself, he was a little worried about being sorry for Zhong Cheng. When Zhong Cheng came back, what he handed Zhong Cheng was a mess.
If he were really the head coach of Leeds United, he would not be as nervous as he is now.
Kelly Fox looked at Albertini who looked completely different from usual. This guy seemed really nervous.
Albertini continued: "Our Leeds United club is very powerful, and we will not be afraid of whoever we draw. Of course, we still hope to draw some teams that are easy to deal with, because this is not just about whether we are afraid or not. The problem is, because we still have the league, the League Cup and other competitions. During this period, there are many games and the schedule is complicated, so it is naturally better to be more relaxed!"
Many media reporters naturally despised Albertini. Wasn't this guy very tough in the past? Why did he give up now? He really didn't have the style of a master!
The media reporters naturally asked about Zhong Cheng's situation, and Albertini also answered seriously.
Albertini said: "Our boss is in very good condition and recovering well. Before leaving for Switzerland, I went to see our boss. He is in good spirits now and will recover soon. Now. You don’t have to worry about this!”
Many people were shocked when they heard this, and then asked one after another: "Then why didn't Mr. Loya come in person to participate in the UEFA Champions League group draw? Does he look down on UEFA?"
Albertini's expression suddenly dropped. Do you know how to chat with this damn garbage? If you don't know how to chat, don't talk. If you talk, you will offend others.
Albertini immediately said: "Our boss naturally wants to take a good rest and recuperate quietly. He is about to recover, and he naturally does not want to have problems at this time and let the injury relapse. Our boss is You have to let your condition recover before you can come back again.”
The media reporters are naturally reluctant to believe Albertini's words. They are always doubtful in their hearts, as if everyone is a master of lying. They have to think about and study what anyone says before making their own subjective opinions. Speculation.
Yes, that's it!
Then Albertini left directly and entered the venue to participate in the group draw ceremony of the 2009-2010 UEFA Champions League.
This is very important to Leeds United, and Albertini naturally takes it very seriously. This time he hopes that the team can draw a relatively easy group, so that they will have more energy to deal with other games.
