"God, ninety million euros!!"
When news of Inter Milan's signing of Lucio reached Napoli, there was an uproar in the coach's office.
No one would have thought that Inter Milan would be willing to spend a huge sum of 90 million euros to build such a team for Mourinho when the entire European football world was sluggish.
This simply can no longer be described as luxury.
Inter Milan is simply more proud than the local tyrants!
When Gao Shen heard the news, he was also very shocked. He really did not expect that Mourinho actually persuaded Moratti to spend a lot of money.
Obviously, in order to be able to win a Champions League as the chairman of Inter Milan and fulfill his dream of the past few decades, Moratti has really sacrificed himself, and may even have hollowed out his family.
But I have to say that the current Inter Milan is really extravagant, and the lineup is not generally strong.
For nothing else, this dedication to Moratti, as well as this affection and devotion to Inter Milan, is really not admirable.
Let me ask, in European football, who is willing to invest without any return like Moratti?
"It's not easy to play Serie A in the new season!" Carlo said worriedly.
He has always been a conservative, always thinking about difficulties first.
Everyone also nodded in agreement, especially seeing the current lineup of Inter Milan, which is really daunting.
If it is said that after defeating Inter Milan 3-0, Naples are all intent on defending the Serie A title, then now, the strong investment of Inter Milan has made Naples deeply feel the threat.
Professional football is like this, playing is capital.
With money there are good players.
If you don't have money, you have to be preoccupied with successive appointments.
"Gao, what do you think?" Carlo asked with concern.
Only then did everyone realize that from the beginning to the end, Gao Shen hardly said a word.
Feeling the sight of the assistants, Gao smiled lightly, "It's nothing to see, after drinking with Mourinho that night, I guessed that he would ask the management for signings, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful, Moratti. It's really worth paying for.”
Only a son like Moratti, who came from a wealthy and noble family, is willing to invest so much money to fulfill a dream.
That is 90 million euros, converted into RMB, that is 900 million.
God, one hundred million can kill and set fire, nine hundred million...
Gao Shen was really shocked.
"No matter who the opponent is, it's the same for us anyway." Gao Shen said loudly.
There was confidence and strength in his voice.
"The game has to be played one by one, and the opponents have to be eliminated one by one. Whether it is Roma in the first round or Inter Milan in the future, for us, there is always only one goal, and that is victory!"
Speaking of this, Gao Shen revealed a confident smile.
"Besides, originally, I thought that this season's Serie A would be quite boring, but now it seems that Inter Milan did not disappoint me!"
"The stronger the stronger the stronger, this is the true nature of our Naples!"
I don't know why, but after listening to Gao Shen's words, everyone seemed to feel at ease in an instant.
Although, Inter Milan is really strong, but Napoli is not bad.
Before signings, Napoli was a team that could beat Inter Milan 3-0 at the San Siro.
Now that a few strong players have been introduced, at best they are tied with Naples. Who is afraid of who?
…
The Naples players also heard the news of the signing of Inter Milan, but Gao Shen quickly stabilized their mood.
Everyone can see that Napoli's No. 1 rival in Serie A this season is Inter Milan.
Now, Inter Milan's strength has soared, and Napoli's players will definitely be affected.
But Gao Shen also said that he is full of confidence in his players. Even if Inter Milan brings in strong reinforcements, don't even think about being able to challenge Naples' position.
"Wait and see! When we are a guest at Meazza again, we still destroy them Inter Milan!"
Gao Shen shouted loudly in front of the players, which rekindled everyone's fighting spirit.
Is the recruiting great?
Naples is not weak either.
Besides, most of the Naples players have been playing together for two years, and they are very familiar and tacit with each other. Are they still afraid of the signing of Inter Milan?
At the same time, before the league started, Naples also received good news.
That is, the players who participated in the Olympic Games began to return to the team one after another, and before the first round of the war, all of them had returned to the team.
Several Argentine players, mainly Olympic champions, dragged to the end.
But Di Maria and Biglia performed very well in the Olympics, which gave Naples confidence.
No, before the new season starts, Naples have already won two championships.
On the other hand, the opponent in the first round of the league is away to Rome.
For this team, Napoli still have a psychological advantage.
Since Gao Shen took charge, the record against Roma has been very good, and everyone is full of confidence.
Red Wolves captain Totti, Perrotta and Tadei are currently injured and basically missed this game.
This is tantamount to helping Naples to cut off Roma's most dangerous offensive player.
…
On August 29, the day before the new Serie A season ignited the war.
Located at the Grimalti Conference Center in Monaco, a draw that will affect the Champions League in the new season started slowly under the watchful eye.
Naples still arranged for general manager Marino to attend the draw.
Serie A is about to start, and Gao Shen took Naples up and down and continued to prepare for the battle at Fort Volturno.
In fact, as early as before the game, everyone knew that Napoli's signing was definitely not good.
Because they have no European points at all, they are in the bottom of the fourth pot with zero points.
This is actually a very interesting thing. The Serie A champions are in fourth gear, which not only makes Napoli unconvinced, but also makes other teams feel very anxious.
Who wants to meet such a strong opponent in fourth gear?
The point is, in the fourth pot, in addition to Napoli, there are tough teams like Atletico Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk.
The eight seeded teams are: defending champions Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan and Inter Milan.
The Premier League has four seats, and in last season's Champions League semi-finals, the Premier League won three.
Today's Premier League is not only rich and powerful, but also a gathering of stars. At the same time, it is also an ideal stage for all coaches, because here, you can collide with many world famous coaches.
For example, lofty idols Ferguson, Wenger, Benitez and so on.
According to the principle of drawing lots in the group stage, Naples will not encounter Inter Milan and AC Milan, and in the remaining six groups, they will not encounter second-tier Rome.
However, there are strong teams such as Bayern Munich, Lyon, Villarreal, Porto, Werder Bremen and other teams in the second pot.
Therefore, Naples will definitely meet a strong team, and it will definitely be the group of death.
What matters is how severe the death is.
…
"nervous?"
When watching the live broadcast of the draw, Zidane asked Xiang Gao Shen with a smile.
Gao Shen did not answer, but exhaled heavily, the answer was self-evident.
This is the first time he has watched the Champions League group stage draw, and it is impossible to say that he is not nervous.
But to say how nervous, in fact, not.
More of a curiosity about the unknown.
"Any team you want to meet?" Zidane asked.
Without thinking about it, Gao Shen said, "Ferguson's Manchester United."
"You want to touch the defending champion?" Carlo asked in a voiceless voice.
Gao Shen nodded, "I want to play against Ferguson, because they are the strongest team in Europe, and when I fight with them, I know how strong our team is, and what weaknesses and shortcomings we have. "
For Gao Shen, strong dialogue is like a whetstone.
What's the point if it's just in the Serie A nest?
Can't build a car behind closed doors!
Gao Shen wants to play against those masters, even if he loses, he can accept it.
Because after losing, he will know where his problems are and what his shortcomings are. These are the directions of his efforts and progress. Otherwise, he will not know what to do.
Like, if every game is like a 3-0 win over Inter Milan, does it make sense?
Therefore, Gao Shen is eager to challenge the strongest team and the strongest coach!
"The one you don't want to meet the most?" Zidane asked again.
Gao Shen smiled, "Barcelona and Real Madrid."
"Why?" Zidane wondered.
"Guardiola coaches Barcelona, I know what he wants to do and what kind of football he wants to play. I know him too well. If I play against him, I will win. As for Real Madrid, to be honest, I am afraid that after winning, I will win. The fans at the Bernabeu would scold me."
At the end, Gao Shen was all happy.
In fact, if he encounters Real Madrid, he is also confident.
The current situation of Real Madrid is not very good. The coach Schuster has a conflict with Mijatovic.
As for Barcelona, Gao Shen really doesn't want to meet.
Because he was afraid that after he accidentally defeated Barcelona, Barcelona, which should have won the championship, now has no triple crown, so Guardiola will still be the original Guardiola?
If you really want to do this, wouldn't the quality of this Bole, Gao Shen, be much lessened?
No way, UU reading these days, if you want to get the title of Bole, you have to work hard.
…
During the speech, the drawing ceremony started soon.
The first two teams have also been released one after another.
Due to the principle of evasion of the same country, Naples will basically not encounter AC Milan, Inter Milan and Roma, while the second seed team Roma encounters is Chelsea.
That is to say, Napoli's opponents are basically Manchester United, Liverpool, Barcelona, Arsenal and Real Madrid.
These five teams are all giants and their strengths are quite good.
The teams in the second pot are also not bad. Barcelona met Sporting Lisbon, Liverpool met PSV Eindhoven, Manchester United met Villarreal, Arsenal met Porto, and Real Madrid met Bayern Munich.
When he saw this, Gao Shen smiled bitterly in his heart.
They are all strong teams, and they are not easy to play against anyone.
The most unfortunate is the Group H of Real Madrid and Bayern.
But choosing one out of five, you wouldn't be so unlucky, would you?
