In the late 80s and mid-90s, Italy had seven teams that swept the European and domestic competitions, and they brought home a European trophy almost every year, and they occupied at least one of the three major European Cup finals for 13 consecutive years, and they are known as the seven sisters of Serie A.

Parma and Fiorentina are both among the seven sisters of Serie A, and Parma have an even more brilliant record than Fiorentina.

Two years ago, Florence went bankrupt, President Cecchi Gori was imprisoned, Purple Lily fell to C Two years later, Florence returned to Serie A, Parma's backstage Tanzi family went bankrupt, Chairman Tanzi was imprisoned, Parma was taken over by the government, almost repeating the tragic fate of Florence, fortunately, Bondi, the interim chairman sent by the Parmalat Incident Committee, made full use of the "Marzano" bill proposed by the Minister of Industry Marzano, and actively sought financial guarantees from banks, Emilia in the region where Parma is located— The People's Bank of Romagna gave strong financial support to the new club during the process of registering for the league, allowing Parma to register in the league.

However, in order to avoid the danger of relegation to the amateur league, Parma also paid a heavy price.

In the summer transfer, Parma lost seven key players. They are Adriano, Hidetoshi Nakata, Ferrari, Castellini, Blasi, Donadel and Barone. The loss at the back, especially in the midfield, was huge. It will be difficult for newcomers Guerrera, Bolano and Beauvo to fill the void left by these people at once, and Parma now have four types of players. The team went out on loan and is now available; Coach Bardini's old man from the Empoli era; Italy's two 'useful talents, and the retention of Gilardino, Marchioni, Bonella, Bresciano and other important stars. The experience of the first two groups and the talent of the last group will be key to keeping Parma in last season's European place this season.

However, because Parma has a new manager this season, the team was not formed until the end of the transfer market, and there are many players who participated in the Olympic Games and World Cup qualifiers, the team has no chance to run in at all, although there is no shortage of outstanding stars in the team, but the combat effectiveness has greatly declined, after four rounds of this season, a winless one, so that the head coach Bardini is under great pressure.

The clash with Fiorentina will be crucial for Bardini, who has already had fans turn against him at home, and if Parma can win this game, there will be less pressure on Baldini, and if he loses this game again, Baldini will even be at risk of being sacked.

Parma's general manager, Ballardi, was the hero of Parma's rebuild, and Bardini was also brought in by him, and he knew the pressure on Baldini, and before the game, he took the initiative to relieve Baldini's pressure. "We are the youngest team in Serie A, including the manager, we have a squad that is only over the age of Mofeo, we have to be patient with a team like this, no matter what the result of this game, Baldini will sit in his position, I believe that Baldini can build this youth army into an iron army and rebuild the glory of the past.

Valdini was very grateful for the trust of the general manager, and in the pre-match press conference, he said that he must beat Fiorentina at the Ennio Tadini Stadium to achieve the first win of the season, and at the same time, Bardini also raised some problems for the team, "Although we have not won four games, but we have only lost two, except for the one against Udinese, we have a chance to win, but our players are too young to take advantage of it, Fiorentina is facing the same problem as us, But their results have been outstanding, mainly because they have a tough heart and we are too fragile to concede a goal and not be able to bounce back. “

Valdini was not worried about Fiorentina's top scorer Chen Yu, who scored U-goals in four games, saying: "There is no doubt that Chen is the ace and core of Fiorentina, his performance is world-class, but we also have trump cards, Gilardino as the second scorer of last season has only scored l goals now, he still has a lot of potential to explore, if he can continue to score, I believe our victory day will not be too far away." ”

Although Parma is winless in four games and was slaughtered by a mid-table team like Udinese by four goals, Fiorentina does not dare to relax too much, this Parma team is not weak, they are just too young, and the away draw with Inter Milan is enough to show their potential, if they are driven crazy by this youth army, it is not impossible for Fiorentina to make a mistake away from home.

Compared with the opponent, Mondonico has more headaches than how to arrange the starting lineup.

Fiorentina now have only one stable line, the back line is basically unchanged, Chiellini, Maggio, Ujfarusi and Dainelli have played and have been recognized by their teammates and fans.

Chen Yu in the forward line is the main force that cannot be beaten, but who is the other one or two strikers, this makes Mondonico entangled. President de la Valle not only wants results, but also beautiful football, in order to serve himself to gain the right to speak in Italian football, but Fiorentina has five strikers in addition to Chen Yu, Mikoli and Di Natale are Italian international-level players, Portillo is the genius of the giant Real Madrid, Rigano and Fantini are the heroes of the promotion, Mondonico's henchmen, who plays and who does not play is a problem, and it will also cause problems, and now Mondonico is like a thin mud, everyone takes turns to play, in order to seek a balance, Anyway, there is Chen Yu supporting him in the front line, and Chen Yu is still there when others don't score.

But the midfield is not as easy to do as the striker, the midfield does not have a core, Maresca and Nakata Hidetoshi want to be, Jorgensen is strong, and he is not willing to be down, if these three people are happy troubles, then in the back position is the real distress, last season, Mondonico used the center back to play the back, and the effect was not bad, but after being promoted to Serie A this season, the opponent was a notch, and the back of this cameo was not smart, Fontana and Obodo were both born in the semi-back waist, The sense of attack is stronger than the defense, and Fontana is too old, confrontation, speed is not good, it is completely supported by consciousness, Obodo likes to step forward the most, and the holes left are to be borne by the central defenders, if the midfield is arranged, it is Mondonico who has been repeatedly considered in these 9 games and has not considered the problem of good man.

Before the game against Parma, the main goalkeeper of Serie B Cejas recovered from injury, and Mondonico faced two former Roma substitute goalkeepers, and he was going to be unable to sleep again.

The night before leaving for Parma, Mondonico summoned Chen Yu and Di Livio to the office for more than two hours to discuss, and when Chen Yu returned home, it was already dark. Zhao Muyu came out to open the door, and Chen Yu drove his newly bought BMW 5 Series into the parking lot.

Two weeks ago, Gao Fei drove Chen Yu's Fiat to Empoli, and Chen Yu bought another BMW 5 Series himself.

"Brother Xiao Yu, what did the coach talk to you about, come back so late?"

In the past two years, Zhao Muyu has not grown much, but he has plumped a lot, wearing a white hooded casual suit, white jeans, and pink cloth drags, looking like a college student

"Discuss the start of tomorrow's game against Parma."

Chen Yu walked into the living room, took off his coat, and sat on the sofa.

"Oh, I brought the food out, it was already ready, I was afraid of the cold, so I put it on the cage and steamed it."

Zhao Muyu brought the food and leaned on the sofa next to Chen Yu to watch TV.

"Have you eaten, Muyu."

"I've eaten it, Brother Xiao Yu." Zhao Muyu watched the TV absentmindedly, as if he had something on his mind.

Chen Yu was actually very thoughtful, and said, "Muyu, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhao Muyu said: "No." ”

Chen Yu rubbed Zhao Muyu's long hair and said, "You still want to hide it from me with this little care, tell me, what are you thinking, is it looking for a boyfriend." ”

Zhao Muyu hurriedly said: "How can I be, I am ugly, how can anyone chase me?" ”

Chen Yu smiled: "You can't hide this from me, Xu Bing told me, you are at the school flower level, and there are many people chasing you." ”

Zhao Muyu's face flushed, "What's the matter, I heard Brother Bing say nonsense, it was Yu's mother who wanted to bring her brother over to take a look recently, I was a little worried, I was afraid that she wouldn't like me." ”

Chen Yu patted Zhao Muyu's slender shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, I heard that although Aunt Zhang has a big company, she is a very good person."

Zhao Muyu still couldn't let go, and said, "I hope so." ”

Chen Yu said with a smile: "Be careful, you can't take care of it, by the way, when will Uncle Zhang come back when he goes to the UK?" ”

"I don't know, it may be a few days. Fei called me, and if he is free on Sunday, he may go to Palma to cheer you on

Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "Forget it, he has said this several times, and I haven't seen him go once." ”

Zhao Muyu said: "Brother Xiaofei is also busy, now he has just gained a foothold, and he hasn't even been to Florence a few times." ”

Chen Yu smiled: "I don't blame him for not cheering me on, I mean he has a big mouth, don't say it if you can't do it, just give me a mouth." ”

Zhao Muyu said faintly: "Actually, I haven't been to the arena to cheer you on for a long time, I have to be busy with internships, Yu's father sent me to this school easily, I can't let him down." Besides, you're not bad for me as a fan. ”

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and said: "Mu Yu, you have something to say, no matter how many fans I have, I can't miss you, you, Gao Fei, and Uncle Zhang are all the same as my relatives." Thinking of his father and younger brother, Chen Yu sighed and said, "Even closer than my relatives." ”

"Brother Xiao Yu, you also have something to say." Zhao Muyu moved a pair of dark and gloomy eyes to Chen Yu's body, she had heard Gao Fei talk about Chen Yu's family, but Gao Fei didn't know much.

Chen Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing, after my parents divorced, my relationship with my parents and younger brother was very ordinary." ”

Zhao Muyu said faintly: "Oh, we are connected by the same fate." ”

Chen Yu sighed and said, "Muyu, don't worry, even if your mother doesn't like you, I will take care of you like my own sister for the rest of my life." “

"Thank you." Zhao Muyu was faint, looking unhappy at all, and lowered his head and said softly in a voice that he could only hear, "I don't want to be your own sister." “

"What's polite with me?"

Chen Yu was distracted by the sports news on TV and didn't notice Zhao Muyu's strangeness.
