Chapter 184 Mourinho's Complaint

After seeing the result, Guardiola's mouth twitched slightly. Although the movement was not large, it was still captured by the camera.

After seeing the result, people from various clubs who came to the scene to participate in the draw ceremony all smiled knowingly.

UEFA still knows how to play!

It turned out to be such an interesting grouping.

However, this signing is not a bad one for Bayern and Manchester City.

The second-tier team in Group D is CSKA Moscow of the Russian Premier League, which is not a strong team.

The only thing to worry about is that winter comes very early in Russia, and it is already freezing cold and snowy in October.

In this case, it would be a very sour feeling for European teams to play away games there in the winter.

But if we are lucky and finish the away game against CSKA Moscow before October, we won't have such trouble.

The drawing of lots continued, and Owen subsequently drew Basel into Group E, Dortmund into Group F, Zenit into Group G, and Ajax into Group H.

The fourth player to draw the lots was former Dortmund star Sosa, who completed the draw quickly, placing the fourth-tier teams into the various groups.

The final draw results of the Champions League group stage are as follows: Group A: Manchester United (Premier League), Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukrainian Premier League), Bayer Leverkusen ( Bundesliga), Real Sociedad (La Liga) Group B: Real Madrid (La Liga), Juventus (Serie A), Galatasaray (Turkish Premier League), Copenhagen (Danish Premier League) Group C: Benfica (Portuguese Premier League), Paris Saint-Germain (Ligue 1), Olympiacos (Greek Premier League), Anderlecht (Belgian Premier League)

Group D: Bayern Munich (Bundesliga), CSKA Moscow (Russian Premier League), Manchester City (English Premier League), Viktoria Plzen (Czech Premier League)

Group E: Chelsea (Premier League), Werder Bremen (Bundesliga), Basel (Swiss Super League), Steaua Bucharest (Romanian First Division)

Group F: Arsenal (Premier League), Marseille (Ligue 1), Dortmund (Bundesliga), Napoli (Serie A)

Group G: Porto (Portuguese Premier League), Atletico Madrid (La Liga), Zenit (Russian Premier League), Austria Vienna (Austrian Bundesliga)

Group H: Barcelona (La Liga), AC Milan (Serie A), Ajax (Eredivisie), Celtic (Scottish Premier League) After the draw ceremony, the groups of death became clear: Group F where Arsenal is located and Group H where Barcelona is located.

Except for the teams drawn into these two groups, other teams are relatively satisfied with their groups.

Among the four Premier League teams, except for Arsenal which had the worst draw, the draws of the other three teams were pretty good.

Manchester United's three group opponents are all one level weaker than them. If it were Manchester United in the Ferguson era, it would be very easy for them to qualify from the group.

But it is hard to say about Moyes. He has no previous Champions League experience and lack of experience is his biggest problem.

Chelsea's draw is the best among the four teams. Except for Werder Bremen, which may cause them some trouble, the other teams in the same group do not pose any threat at all.

As long as Mourinho does not let down his team, Chelsea's qualification is a foregone conclusion.

After the draw results for the Champions League group stage came out, media from all over the world reported on it.

The Italian media sighed and felt that AC Milan was really unlucky.

This is the fourth time in three consecutive seasons that they have met Barcelona in the Champions League. The two teams seem to have a bad fate, but AC Milan always suffers.

In the 2011-2012 season, Barcelona and AC Milan were also divided into Group H. AC Milan lost one and drew one against Barcelona.

After much difficulty, they made it to the quarterfinals, but ended up meeting Barcelona again in the quarterfinals. After another draw and loss, AC Milan was defeated by Barcelona.

Last season, Barcelona and AC Milan met in the round of 16. AC Milan finally won 2:0 at home and thought they could turn the tables this time, but they unexpectedly were defeated 4:0 by Barcelona at Camp Nou.

AC Milan fans are going to curse in their hearts when they meet Barcelona for the fourth time! Why is it always you? You think we are easy to bully, right? But Arsenal fans think that the most unlucky one is our Nana, okay? As the only team among the eight seeded teams that has never won the Champions League, it is a bit heartbreaking to put them together with the other seven teams.

Arsenal's opponents: last year's Champions League runner-up Dortmund, French Ligue 1 runner-up Marseille and Serie A runner-up Napoli .

Oh my god, although Arsenal is the top seed, they are ranked the lowest in the group. After all, they were only fourth in the Premier League last season...

After the game, reporters interviewed Wenger, who said calmly: "I have confidence in my team, we will definitely qualify from the group stage!"

Wenger has the confidence to say this. Since he took over the team, Arsenal has always been able to secure a place in the Champions League and always make it out of the group stage.

Although the opponents in this group are a little stronger, Arsenal is not weaker than their opponents.

As long as they can beat their opponents in their home games, the initiative to qualify will be in their own hands.

However, the British media themselves do not think so. They believe that with Arsenal's current squad, fighting on three fronts is likely to collapse, so they urge the professor to quickly spend money to buy players.

If the team fails in the group stage due to unwillingness to spend money, Arsenal will suffer great losses.

However, after buying the dog, it remains a mystery whether the professor still has money and how much money he has.

Anyway, it is nothing new for Arsenal to operate with debt and survive by selling the captain.

This is the first time that the professor can afford to buy Erdog for tens of millions of pounds.

Asking him to continue paying would make things difficult for the professor.

In La Liga, both Real Madrid and Barcelona are quite satisfied with the result.

Barcelona's core player Messi said in an interview that no Champions League match is easy to play. No matter which group he is in or what opponent he faces, he will give his all to play every game well.

Having said that, the reporter discovered that unlike when he just appeared on the court with a frown on his face, Messi's brows were now relaxed, proving that he was very satisfied with the signing.

On the Real Madrid side, AS and Marca focused on the encounter between Real Madrid and Juventus.

The two teams have met many times in the Champions League, but what impressed Real Madrid fans most was the 1998 Champions League final.

That year, Real Madrid finally defeated Juventus and won the championship trophy again after 32 years.

And now, it has been more than ten years since he won the Champions League. When facing Juventus, its old rival, Real Madrid hopes to turn their luck around by defeating the opponent.

However, Real Madrid is not certain to defeat Juventus. Since the beginning of the new century, all the matches between Real Madrid and Juventus have ended with Juventus' victory.

So this encounter is a battle of revenge for Real Madrid.

In addition, Real Madrid head coach Ancelotti and assistant coach Zidane have both played for Juventus.

Moreover, the working experience at Juventus was not friendly to both of them. Ancelotti was once insulted as a pig by Juventus fans because he was too fat.

When Zidane joined Juventus, he was questioned by Juventus fans because he found it difficult to integrate into Serie A.

This time, when the two teams meet, with new and old grudges added together, the stronger Real Madrid may not let the Old Lady go easily.

In addition to the gimmicks of these death groups and strong confrontations, Guardiola's Bayern and Lin Quan's Manchester City were grouped together, which also attracted the attention and interviews of many reporters.

Facing the reporters' siege, Lin Quan said in an interview: "This is an interesting draw."

With this cryptic answer, he hinted that UEFA had set up the script.

When the reporters heard Lin Quan's words, they all laughed.

The duel between father and son, the drama is just as dramatic as it can be? Even if it is really a pre-arranged script, they are not opposed to such a script!

The German media has mixed feelings. In their opinion, Bayern's draw is very good and they will have no problem qualifying as the group leader.

But Dortmund fell into the group of death, and it is hard to say whether they can qualify after losing Götze.

As for Leverkusen and Werder Bremen, whether these two teams can break out of the siege depends entirely on their own performance.

Relatively speaking, Werder Bremen's draw may be better, because apart from Chelsea, which they cannot beat, it is not difficult to beat the remaining two opponents.

Leverkusen's group situation is a bit more difficult. Against Manchester United, they have a 37-39 chance of losing.

Their main opponents are two other teams, but the strength of these two teams is comparable to theirs, so it will probably be a 50-50 fight. It is really hard to say who will advance to the knockout stage.

After the draw results were released, the betting websites also announced the odds of winning the Champions League as soon as possible.

Bayern, coached by Guardiola, is unsurprisingly the most favored.

Although the meritorious coach Heynckes has left, the addition of strong players such as Guardiola, Gotze and Thiago has objectively further strengthened Bayern's already luxurious lineup.

As there have not been many changes in Bayern's main structure and the players are all at their peak, Bayern should be favored by everyone.

After Bayern, the second highest odds are Real Madrid.

Last season, Mourinho's Real Madrid was just a little bit away from the final, but this season the arrival of Ancelotti and the joining of 100 million man Bale have further enhanced Real Madrid's strength.

People have reason to believe that Real Madrid, whose performance in the Champions League is constantly improving, may be able to get what they want this season and win their 10th Champions League trophy! As for Barcelona, ​​the team's aging lineup, coupled with the change of a less famous and weaker head coach, made the outside world a little pessimistic about them. Their odds are lower than their rivals in the league, ranking third.

After the three super giants Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United, the odds of the two Premier League powerhouses Chelsea and Manchester United are also not low, ranking fourth and fifth respectively.

Chelsea's squad is not bad and they won the Champions League two seasons ago.

With Mourinho's return this season, theoretically their strength will be further improved and the possibility of winning the championship is not low.

As for Manchester United, although it ranks fifth, the gap between them and the top four is huge.

The outside world is not optimistic about Moyes' journey in the Champions League. The reason is very simple. Manchester United's focus this season will definitely be on the Premier League, and the Champions League may be strategically abandoned by them.

Surprisingly, Manchester City's odds ranked sixth, surpassing last year's runner-up Dortmund.

The outside world believes that Manchester City has the potential to win the championship. Their lineup is not bad at all. What they lack is the Champions League experience and how to put this luxurious lineup into shape so that these stars can fully demonstrate their strength.

This evaluation is actually quite fair, and their analysis of Manchester City's problems is very incisive.

Whether these problems can be solved depends on Pellegrini's work ability.

After the draw ceremony, the schedule for the Champions League group stage was soon released.

Manchester City will travel to face Czech First League champions Viktoria Plzen on September 18.

The opponent in the first Champions League match is not very strong, which is a good opportunity for Manchester City to get off to a good start.

The whole team is gearing up to prepare for this game! …

After the Champions League draw ceremony, Lin Quan and Guardiola only met briefly and chatted for a few words before they hurriedly flew back to Manchester.

A day later, the third round of the Premier League kicked off.

Chelsea, who played first, narrowly beat Aston Villa 2:1 at home.

In this game, Aston Villa continued their habit of getting yellow cards, receiving 5 yellow cards in the whole game, which is five times more than Chelsea.

Chelsea only scored one goal in this game, while their opponents scored two goals.

But it was Chelsea that won in the end because their opponents gave them an own goal, and it was a big gift package just seven minutes into the game.

To be honest, if Aston Villa hadn't given them a big gift package early on, they should have won the game.

Chelsea's performance in this game was very bad and they didn't look like a top team at all.

They had over 70% of the ball throughout the game and took 17 shots, but only 3 of them were on target.

Although the opponents had half as many shots as them, they had 4 shots on target, one more than them.

Mourinho's proud defensive counterattack tactics could not be played at all when the opponent set up the bus first.

The oppressive attack seemed to be a bit of a failure for Chelsea, who had no forwards! Although Chelsea bought a lot of forwards, none of them could be used.

The only goal they scored in this game was actually scored by a defender! This made Mourinho couldn't help but cover his face with his hands! Looking at the large group of forwards under his command who couldn't score a goal, Mourinho wanted to cry but had no tears, and he began to miss Drogba!

If I had a capable striker under my command, how could I not be able to break the goal of a weak team?

When Mourinho thought of this, he became very angry and was very dissatisfied with the work of the club manager Emnaro.

If he had brought Lin Quan to Stamford Bridge, why would Chelsea be in such a mess and so weak in attack?

It turns out that Mourinho's complaints were justified.

In the match between Manchester City and Hull City the next day, Lin Quan was in great form.

He scored two goals in just 35 minutes of the first half.

Not long after the start of the second half, he scored the third goal, completing his second hat trick after joining Manchester City.

In three games, Lin Quan scored 8 goals, more than the entire Chelsea team, and twice as many! His outstanding performance proved Mourinho's vision.

At the same time, it also proves that Mansour’s original money was well spent.

If other teams are given another chance, I'm afraid everyone will scramble to spend the money! (End of this chapter)
