Chapter 866 159 Drawing Lots
"We will probably not make any signings this season, because Pjanic and Aguero are our best signings. Pjanic played very well in Roma last season. I think he can play a good role in the team. Very good effect! As for Aguero, it took him a little longer to adapt to the league, but I want to say that we are patient with him. He is still young and has great hope!" Hugo's words confirmed Trapa's performance this season. The fact that Nippon has no signings at all.
In fact, this season, Trapani still has signings, and the B team and the youth team have sporadic signings. This kind of signings are not first-team signings.
After dealing with reporters, Hugo and Miku walked into the lottery venue. In addition to the lottery, many players and coaches also participated in today's lottery ceremony, because UEFA is going to announce today the best and European players at each position last season. Best coach.
Trapani's candidate players and Wenger arrived at the venue earlier than Hugo and Miku who had something to do. At the venue, Hugo saw him chatting happily with his old friends from Trapani.
Seeing Hugo and Miku come in, Schweinsteiger quickly hugged Hugo and Miku and said hello.
"How about going back to Germany?! Your girlfriend won't complain now, right?! Your wish has been fulfilled!" Hugo asked Schweinsteiger with a smile.
"Everything is fine!" Xiaozhu replied, "Boss, I still remember your encouragement to me. I have always been grateful to you! Thank you!"
"Your career is perfect at least at the club level, but it is all your own credit. You and the club achieve mutual success!" Hugo smiled and patted Xiaozhu on the shoulder, affirming Xiaozhu's efforts. .
"How is it?! What were you talking about just now?!" Hugo asked everyone after saying hello.
"We were thinking that maybe it would be interesting to meet Bastian in the knockout rounds. Don't forget that Bayern Munich still has Frank!" Messi laughed.
Trapani's locker room has its own rules of survival. The longer the time goes by, the better the relationship between the players will be. Team captain Toni and top player Messi are famous for their gentle tempers. They are selfish on the court, but they are definitely good off the court. He is a good person, so the atmosphere in the team has always been relatively harmonious.
Bastian Schweinsteiger played very well with the Argentinian gang.
"It's best if you all hope to advance to the finals and let each of you take his own initiative. Now I can win the championship for Bayern Munich!" Schweinsteiger said in demonstration, with strong confidence in his words.
Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena is the venue for the UEFA Champions League finals in the 2011-12 season. The reason why Bayern Munich is willing to spend a lot of money to bring Bastian Schweinsteiger back is that they still want to make a difference at home. Their previous performance in the Champions League He has always been outstanding and has strong strength.
They were chatting. Hugo was in a trance. He hadn't seen Ribery for a long time. That scarred face. Hugo regretted letting Ribery go. It was a pity. If this guy didn't leave, He can probably win as many Champions Leagues as he can, so he won't have even one Champions League now. He has grown into the Allianz King and is the guarantee for Bayern Munich to win.
Soon everyone took their seats, the players and coaches sat in the front, Hugo and the others sat in the back, and UEFA Secretary General Infantino presided over the drawing ceremony.
Infantino has been working at UEFA for a long time, but he only became the Secretary-General of UEFA in 2009. Like Platini, he is also of Italian origin. As for the relationship between him and Platini, Hugo is not very clear about the relationship. Infantino could only be regarded as a nobody in the past, but now Infantino is the promoter of Platini's new policy.
The first-tier teams were placed in Group B first, and Trapani was placed in Group B. Later, in the selection of the best goalkeeper, the contenders for this award included Kameni, Cech and other players, but Kameni often fell behind. He was the loser last season, and he is still the loser this season. Although he came to the scene happily, he has little hope.
Sure enough, the winner of the best goalkeeper was Van der Sar. Although Kameni clearly won the Triple Crown, maybe it was because of his skin color, maybe his skills were not the best, and maybe his performance was difficult to convince the public, so he Going back disappointed.
Kameni was actually once ranked No. 1 in the world, but before that time, the kid had spent too much time in the past two years. In fact, he had not made much improvement in some of his shortcomings. The jury felt that he was still unable to do his best. To a certain extent, Jia is right.
Continuing with the draw, the second team in Group B was drawn by CSKA Moscow. This is a Russian Super League team that has always been the strongest contender for the domestic league championship. They have also won the UEFA Cup. They also have a deep relationship with Abramovich, but after all, they are in the second-tier league. In terms of strength, they are naturally far away from Trapani. Among the second-tier teams, their strength is also average, but Winning them is really not a good draw, because this team is in Moscow!
Trapani is a team in the Mediterranean climate area, and it goes without saying that Moscow, but there is no such worry today, because CSKA’s home game against Trapani should be at the end of September, and Moscow should not be particularly painful at that time. At that time, Trapani mainly had to worry about the distance.
The best defender is Boateng. Boateng defeated Ferdinand, Vidic and other long-established players and was successfully elected as the best defender. He did have a bit of a wild growth last season. In domestic and European competitions, He has proven himself in every game, played brilliantly, and is well-deserved to be elected as the best defender.
For the third tier team, Trapani drew Lille, a newcomer in the Champions League, a French Ligue 1 team. This team was the champion of the French Ligue 1 last season. Since Lyon's seven consecutive championships, the French Ligue 1 has entered a chaotic era. Lille is one of those teams that won the championship in the chaos.
The best midfielder candidate is Schweinsteiger, who beat his former teammate Mascherano.
For the fourth tier, Group B, Trabzonspor was drawn. Trabzonspor, which won the Turkish Super League runner-up in the 10-11 season, qualified for the Champions League play-offs in the 11-12 season. In the third qualifying round, Trabzonspor was eliminated by Benfica and had already moved to the Europa League qualifiers. Because Fenerbahce, which won the championship last season, was involved in match-fixing and was deprived of the Champions League qualification by the Turkish Football Association, Trabzonspor was lucky to participate in the Champions League as a substitute. This is the first time that Trabzonspor has participated in the Champions League after the reform. Previously, in the 2004-05 season and the 2005-06 season, Trabzonspor lost in the Champions League qualifiers and missed the finals.
This newcomer is not worth Trapani's attention.
In fact, when the draw was over, many people whispered that Trapani's draw in Group B was simply outrageous. Teams such as CSKA Moscow, Lille, and Trapabzonspor were completely studying with Trapani. No team could threaten Trapani's qualification.
Hugo and Miku couldn't help laughing. This luck was so good that Hugo even wanted to hug Figo, the guest of the draw, and kiss him.
"It's a bit unbelievable!" Hugo smiled.
"You..." Miku said with some interest.
"Me?! I didn't find anyone. I think this draw was all about luck!" Hugo firmly denied that he had found connections. With Trapani's strength, does he need to find connections? !
The best striker was naturally won by Messi. The competition between him and Ronaldo became more and more intense. This season, they both won the Golden Boot in the league. In the Champions League, Messi only scored one more goal than Ronaldo. Ronaldo won the European Golden Boot, but Messi won the triple crown, so he won the victory as a matter of course. Ronaldo was not even a candidate.
Then came the European Best Eleven. Trapani was naturally the biggest winner. They occupied half of the best lineup.
The best coach was Wenger. His performance in leading Trapani was obvious to all. There was no big objection to this.
