At the end of August in Monaco, the draw for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, which attracts the attention of the world's fans, is held as scheduled.

Representatives of 32 teams from afar will arrive here one after another, and it is rare to gather together to participate in the grand event.

The representatives arranged by Inter Milan this time were Yang Cheng and Facchetti, and almost all of them came to the venue at the time point.

At this time, the huge conference hall was already full of guests, and after Fachetti proved his identity to the staff present, he walked into the conference hall side by side with Yang Cheng.

"Hey, Caesar!"

As soon as Yang Cheng came in, someone immediately greeted him.

"Hey, Werner!" Yang Cheng smiled and hugged the visitor, and both of them laughed.

"Long time no see!"

"Yes, you are famous now, the top coach in Europe, and you will not go back to Kaiserslautern!" Melzer complained.

Yang Cheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, he was really a little scared to go back, because he really didn't know what kind of hospitality he would receive from the fans.

"They miss you so much!" Werner Melzer smiled.

Yang Cheng nodded and patted Melzer's shoulder vigorously, "You guys did a great job!" ”

Last season's Kaiserslautern sold their star but still reached the last eight of the Champions League, and this season they reached the group stage again with the second place in the league, and Bremer did a good job as Kaiserslautern manager.

"Everyone knows that you've left us a treasure trove, and if that doesn't make a difference, then we should hit the wall!" Werner Melzer said with a smile.

"Don't say that!" Yang Cheng said modestly.

"I mean seriously, the players miss you, the fans miss you, we all miss you, Caesar!"

Melzer's words were a bit touching.

"Go back when you have time, we still have your house, Isola Bella still has your place, and ......," Merzer paused, "and Mr. Fritz Walter, who has been in bad health lately. ”

At the mention of this awe-inspiring name, Yang Cheng's mind came up with the image of the old man who gave him encouragement and support, and he couldn't stop nodding: "I know, you convey my blessings for me, I will definitely go back when I have time!" ”

Melzer nodded in agreement.

Yang Cheng got rid of Melzer, walked forward, and immediately ushered in Beckenbauer.

"Hey, our Caesar!" Beckenbauer, who has recently been the victim of a cheating scandal, greeted him loudly.

"Haha, Franz, you ......" Yang Cheng felt that this guy's enthusiasm was a bit exaggerated.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you, and you're doing such a beautiful job in Italy that even I can't believe it."

"Thank you, you Bayern have done a good job in the past few years!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

"The thing I'm most glad about is that you're leaving the Bundesliga!" Heathfield didn't know when he came out of the side.

"Ah, Otmar!" Yang Cheng hugged him.

Heathfield stared at Yang Cheng with a smile, really loving and hating, "Your departure from the Bundesliga is really a news for me that I don't know whether to be happy or sad, but when I heard about what you did in Italy, I knew that I should be happy!" ”

A few old friends had a rare opportunity to get together, and they immediately laughed again.

"The thing I pray to God and Buddha the most now is not to draw your Inter Milan in the third pot team, otherwise, I will be sad!" Beckenbauer said with a wry smile.

"I believe this should be the voice of all the teams in Pot 1 and Pot 2, right?" Yang Cheng asked with an unceremonious smile.

Everyone laughed.

Inter Milan can only be ranked in the third pot due to the European points, which means that whoever is unlucky and Inter Milan is drawn together is the unlucky group of death, which is definitely something that the 8 seeded teams do not want to encounter.

On the contrary, Yang Cheng himself feels that it doesn't matter, the group of death is the group of death, with the strength of Inter Milan now, he dare not say that he will win the first place in the group, but at least the confidence to qualify.

If with the current battle of Inter Milan, he can't qualify for a group, then Yang Cheng doesn't dare to say that he is Caesar! ,

"After this draw, are you going to go to UEFA's head coach's summit?" Heathfield asked.

"Well, you're going too?"

"Of course!"

Both of them smiled tacitly and made an appointment to wait together.

The head coach summit has been running since 1999, and Yang Cheng didn't have a chance last year, but this season when his Inter Milan reached the Champions League, he received invitations to meet with some well-known coaches to talk about other things.

"You're all right, the Bundesliga has started, and we are now strong and have nowhere to go!" Yang Cheng complained with a wry smile.

If purely from the perspective of the Football Association, the Italian Football Association really can't catch up with the German Football Association, God knows if the idea of those guys to postpone the start time of the league was trampled on the head by a donkey.

Now that the top leagues in Europe are in play, Serie A will have to wait for more than a month, which is really ......

"The situation is different in different countries, for example, the Premier League does not have a winter break, it is all the same difficult and troublesome!" Heathfield has been coaching in the Bundesliga all his life because he is familiar with it.

That's why many coaches don't like to change their work environment so often, and they have to adapt to a new place.

The manager and the players are the same, anyone who goes to an unfamiliar environment and wants to show strength all at once, it is impossible, you can only slowly adapt and accept it!

These people are all football practitioners, have a good relationship with each other, and have already had a tacit understanding, that is, they avoid football and games when they talk, otherwise, among the Champions League rivals listed by Heathfield, Inter Milan occupies the first place, if nothing else, because he is the team coached by Yang Cheng.

Playing against each other, they have a lot to talk about, from the recent achievements in the reform of German football youth training to the current draw trend.

Seeing that after Yang Cheng left, he was stopped by Florentino along the way, and it was another small talk, which suddenly made Beckenbauer behind him very embarrassed.

Yang Cheng left Kaiserslautern and left the Bundesliga, and suddenly it was like a dragon entering the sea, out of control, especially last season, the first season of leading Inter Milan was to implement major reforms and build Inter Milan into a terrifying iron army, from which Yang Cheng's own coaching strength can be seen.

What's even more terrifying is that he is only 28 years old, and he is still improving, and in time, he will definitely be the best manager in the world, if not one!

…………

After Yang Cheng finally coped with acquaintances such as Real Madrid and Liverpool, he returned to his seat at Inter Milan, and the award ceremony above began immediately.

Yes, according to the customary draw ceremony, it was still the first team to present awards to last season's Champions League winners, and Real Madrid's captains Hierro and Raul took the stage to receive the trophy respectively, as well as the top scorer, the best player and other awards.

However, there is no award for the head coach at present, and it is not difficult to see from this that the status of the head coach in today's football world is still relatively low, and he is not as valued as star players.

Yang Cheng is an exception to the list of head coaches.

It's like the casual suit he wore today, which is black on the outside and white on the inside, and looks very handsome, which was specially selected and matched by Sienna for him, which brought out Yang Cheng's whole temperament to the fullest, and the shots on the scene were frequently given to him.

Yang Cheng was a little secretly amused in his heart, if he followed Sienna's thoughts, it is estimated that he would have to write on his head that if he wants to buy this suit, please go to No. 58 Napoleon Avenue in Milan!

After the award ceremony, the draw soon began.

Coincidentally, the host of this lottery ceremony is Melissa Trio, who has long been famous in France, and the beautiful host who has long been famous in France was invited to preside over this lottery ceremony, which is enough to prove her status, which has also become a beautiful scenery of this lottery ceremony.

First up are the eight seeded teams in this season's Champions League: Real Madrid, Juventus, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Lazio, Manchester United, Monaco and Valencia. ,

"Who would you most like to meet?" Fachetti leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Yang Cheng smiled slightly and said confidently: "No matter who it is, we are not afraid!" ”

Fachetti felt his self-confidence and couldn't help but secretly feel ashamed of his timidity, which has always been the habit of Inter Milan, always afraid to meet strong teams, and every time the draw is drawn, I can't draw a good one.

What really attracted Yang Cheng's attention was after the draw entered the third gear.

Sparta Prague, Rosenborg, Bayer Leverkusen, Panathinaikos......

As the teams in the third gear were drawn, the mood on the scene suddenly became very strange, and some of the strong teams in the group that were drawn were suddenly relieved, while the teams that failed to draw were secretly sweating.

Everyone knows that the strongest in the third gear is Inter Milan, and whoever touches it is unlucky!

Glasgow Rangers, Olympiacos ......

Two more teams in Pot 3 were drawn, and General Manager Lyon, who was lucky enough to be in the same group as Olympians, burst out laughing, and he really had reason to be excited.

The reason is simple: their group is a group with clear strengths and weaknesses, and the first pot is Valencia from Spain, which makes Lyon draw an extremely lucky one.

The scene immediately sneered at the general manager of this team, but in his heart he secretly cursed their luck, because they avoided Inter Milan, and this lottery was really good.

There are only two teams left in Pot 3, namely Dynamo Kyiv and Inter Milan, and the groups are the final Group G and Group H, no matter which group Inter Milan enters, it can almost be said to be the Group of Death.

The current two teams in Group G are Manchester United and PSV Eindhoven, although the latter is a Dutch league, but the current Dutch team is not bad at all, including Belgium, Portugal and other leagues The teams are strong and competitive.

The two teams in Group H are Barcelona and Leeds United, one is the La Liga giants and the other is the Premier League Youth Guard, both of which are also very competitive teams.

When the lottery guests took out a colored ball from the glass jar again, the atmosphere of the scene was suddenly frozen, because everyone knew that the name shouted this time was the team in Group G, and the remaining team did not need to draw any more at all.

The lottery guest opened the colored ball in his hand, took out a note, looked at it, and handed it to the host Melissa, who had a moving smile on his face, and after seeing the note, he turned his head, smiled at Yang Cheng, and then showed it.

"Dynamo Kyiv!"

Gaspart and Edwards are in the opposite mood, the former is depressed and the latter is proud.

As the new president, who had just been elected in the summer election to the general election, Gaspart had to deal with the mess left by the power turmoil, including the departures of Rivaldo and Figo, as well as the turmoil at the club, combined with the strength of rival Real Madrid, which made him feel helpless.

Originally, I was hoping for a good performance in the Champions League, but I didn't expect Inter Milan to usher in a group of death.

Yang Cheng, this is the most hated head coach of Barcelona fans today, because he was the one who single-handedly ruined Barcelona's centennial celebration, and it was also him who made Barcelona fans involuntarily expel him from Camp Nou, and he is still ridiculed by countless fans for their lack of grace.

When they meet again, Inter Milan is extremely strong, but Barcelona is experiencing turmoil, and Gaspat has no bottom in his heart!

After all, it is an opponent they have never conquered, and there will definitely be a shadow!

As soon as the draw results came out, Yang Cheng immediately made a fist celebration gesture, as if he was confident that he wanted to crush his opponent, and this scene was immediately captured by the camera that was paying attention to him at any time.

After Inter Milan in the third pot is drawn, there is no suspense for the team in the fourth pot.

Inter Milan's Group H drew the Besiktas team of the Turkish League, although it is also a strong team in Turkey, but Inter Milan has never been afraid of strong teams, Yang Cheng is eager to experience more hardships of strong teams, and it is best to grind out the toughness of Inter Milan. ,

He even thought that if he hadn't experienced the torture of Manchester United and Barcelona in the group stage when he led Kaiserslautern, it is estimated that the Red Devils at that time would not have survived to the end and successfully won the Champions League.

Therefore, he feels that the tribulation of the group stage is a good thing for a team!

So, after the lottery ceremony, at the subsequent reception, in an interview with French reporters, he smiled and said that he did not mind the group of death at all.

"Two years ago, I led Kaiserslautern to the Group of Death, and we managed to break through between Manchester United and Barcelona and beat them all the way to win the Champions League, and now I hope Inter Milan will do the same!"

As for when asked by reporters which team he definitely has the best hopes of winning the championship, he did not hesitate to say Inter Milan.

It is not a matter of faith, but in such an occasion, he must, and can only answer so, and must not show weakness!

…………

After participating in the lottery ceremony, Yang Cheng and Heathfield went to Nyon, Switzerland together.

UEFA held a two-day summit of Europe's top club coaches at its headquarters, which was attended by all well-known European managers, such as Manchester United's Alex Ferguson, Arsenal's Arsene Wenger, Juventus' Carlo Ancelotti, Lazio's Eriksen, etc., representing more than 20 of Europe's top teams.

The content of the meeting was actually very simple, nothing more than everyone sitting together and discussing the future of football, talking about the future development of football, and discussing the current views on the current leagues and the European Champions League.

Due to the G14's tough attitude, UEFA decided to make some adjustments to the dates of national team matches, which even FIFA, which was reluctant at first, had to do so, and they are ready to negotiate a workable solution.

As a key point of discussion at the meeting, UEFA raised the issue of abolishing the league calendar across the year, condensing the league to between March and November, and then freeing up the schedule for the Chinese New Year to be played by the national team.

This was immediately bombarded by the club's head coaches, including Yang Cheng, Alex Ferguson, Heathfield and others.

"I have to be shocked to say that this is a very, very genius idea, and I believe that if the leaders of the national football associations kicked the donkey in the head, they would definitely agree!" Yang Cheng said sarcastically.

He was polite, and Ferguson and others scolded his mother on the spot, thinking that the plan must be **, and he would spare the time of Christmas and New Year's Eve.

"So what if it's an even-numbered year, the European Cup, the World Cup? Is it halfway through the league, separated by two months, leaving the players to return to the national team for training and then slowly participate in the European Championship and the World Cup? Heathfield also looked very excited.

The UEFA officials at the scene were speechless, because this was an immature issue at all, and it was not even passed by UEFA, because many people felt that this proposal was very ** and too idealistic.

There is no doubt that the outcome of the two-day agenda goes without saying.

That's nothing!

But unfortunately, I don't know why, two days later, the sarcasm and insults of Yang Cheng and others appeared in major newspapers, especially Yang Cheng's sarcasm and sarcasm, which were widely reported and exaggerated by the newspapers.

Sadly, the next day, an official of the French Football Association jumped out and fought back against Yang Cheng.

"If he thinks my idea is bad, can he come up with a more creative idea? If not, then he's just a lip service either! ”

Yang Cheng generally despises this kind of behavior of arguing with celebrities to enhance his prestige, and he will not participate in it and be used by the other party, especially since the other party is just an official of the French Football Association, God knows which way.

Oh, Yang Cheng glanced at the newspaper, and had to grab it back and read it, very seriously, looking at it letter by letter.

Oh my god, isn't that the future UEFA president, Platini?!

"It's fun! We offended our godfather! Yang Cheng thought it was funny.
