Chapter 409: Tinker Ranieri

Liverpool won the European Super Cup, and Jackie Lee once again played superbly, which again aroused the praise of the European media.

   Now everyone basically admits that Jackie Lee has locked in this year's Golden Globe Award.

   With his performance in the three finals, he can beat Melo.

   After winning the European Super Cup, Jackie Lee returned to England with the team, and has to prepare for the Premier League weekend.

   On August 17, the second round of the Premier League, Liverpool ushered in the new season's home debut.

   Since Li Chenglong joined the team last season, Liverpool have won three championships, including a gold-rich Champions League.

   Nowadays, Liverpool looks hopeful for a revival, and Liverpool fans are also very enthusiastic, creating a huge momentum at Anfield.

  Especially when Jackie Lee appeared on the stage, he was even more vocalized by the uniform King Bruce.

   Tonight, Liverpool’s opponent is Bournemouth, one of the newly promoted Premier League.

   Speaking of it, although Bournemouth has a team history of more than 100 years, this year is their first promotion to the Premier League, and it is also the first time they have been promoted to the first level of England.

   So, they are really a very young newly promoted horse.

   As a newly promoted horse, Bournemouth is also very conscious. Their goal is to score points and strive to relegation.

   They defended very stubbornly at Anfield, paid three yellow cards, and defended the first half without conceding the ball.

   But in the second half, Li Chenglong shot from a long range to break the deadlock, and then Firmino scored his first goal to join Liverpool, and also helped Liverpool secure the victory.

   In this way, Liverpool won Bournemouth 2-0 at home and gave the newly promoted horse a two-game losing streak. At the same time, they also ushered in their two-game winning streak in the Premier League in the new season.

   The most watched game in the Premier League this round is naturally the double blue game between Manchester City and Chelsea.

   But what is unexpected is that, as the defending champion, Chelsea actually lost 0:3 away to Manchester City.

   Since the start of the new season, Chelsea's condition seems to be not very good. First, they lost to Arsenal in the Community Shield, and then they drew Swansea at home in the first round of the league.

   It's better now, and even a direct away defeat to Manchester City.

   Before the start of the Premier League, the major British media still believed that Chelsea was the biggest contender for the Premier League title in the new season, followed by Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United.

   But looking at it this way, the start has suffered two league matches and three matches. Chelsea is afraid that something will happen.

   There are only two rounds of the Premier League in the new season. Although there is no reason for it for the time being, the situation on the standings is quite obvious.

   Liverpool and Manchester City both scored two consecutive victories, and there is another team, the Blue Foxes Leicester City also scored two consecutive victories.

   At present, the Premier League has only won two consecutive victories with these four teams.

   But now the English media are still focusing on the three teams of Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City. No one pays too much attention to Fox City.

   A team that was desperately relegating last season, no one thinks that they can compete for the Premier League championship. Even people think that even if they want to compete in the European war, they may not be strong enough.

   Even Leicester City coach Ranieri said the same. He said that his purpose in coming to Leicester City was to help the team relegation.

   Ranieri is a well-known tinker in European football. He has coached more than a dozen teams before and after. Basically, he plays wherever he needs to tinker, and many of them are well-known teams.

   includes Naples, Florence, Parma, Rome, Juventus, Inter Milan in Serie A, Valencia and Atletico Madrid in La Liga, Chelsea in the Premier League, Monaco in French Ligue etc.

Ranieri was still coaching the Greek national team last season, but due to his upset in the European Cup qualifiers, the Greek team he led was shockingly lost to the Faroe Islands 0:1, a basic team. All are national teams composed of amateur players.

   At the same time, Greece lags behind too many points in the European Cup qualifiers, and basically missed the 2016 European Cup, so Ranieri was fired by the Greek Football Association in November last year.

   After resting at home for half a year, Ranieri was invited to serve as the head coach of the Premier League Leicester City team. His main purpose is indeed to help the team relegation.

   Last season, Leicester City was a standard relegation team.

   And to ask Ranieri to come, the most is to let the team not like the season, wait until the last two rounds to confirm the relegation thrilling and difficult.

   Looking at it now, Leicester City has won two consecutive victories at the start, and the tinker has done a good job.

   At this time, no one can think of what crazy things this guy will do.

   After the second round of the Premier League, Liverpool will have a one-week match for the next two weeks, which just allows Klopp to take the opportunity to run the team.

   Putting Firmino up to play forward, this change is actually quite big, and it does require a lot of practice.

   At the same time, this season's Champions League qualification play-offs are also proceeding in an orderly manner.

   In the UEFA Champions League play-offs this season, the five major leagues have encountered a serious situation in advance.

  Ligue 1 Monaco meets La Liga Valencia, Bundesliga Leverkusen meets Serie A Lazio.

   The five major leagues that need to participate in the Champions League play-offs, only the Premier League has escaped, and there is no civil war in the five major leagues.

   Representing the Premier League to participate in the Champions League play-offs, naturally Arsenal, who was fourth in the Premier League last season.

   Arsenal's luck is good. They won Bruges in the Belgian League. There shouldn't be a problem to pass.

   But for the other four teams that have suffered civil wars in the five major leagues, their lives may not be easy.

Especially Lazio in Serie A, they are shouldering the burden of winning glory for Serie A~www.NovelMTL.com~ Since the fall of Serie A, Serie A teams have really fallen in the European war, from the Champions League to the European Union, and even the Champions League. In the qualifying rounds, they played pretty badly.

   In the UEFA Champions League play-offs in recent years, Serie A teams have lost their lives. Only AC Milan successfully passed the season once.

In addition to AC Milan, the last Serie A team that was able to break into the Champions League qualifying round and enter the Champions League match dates back to the season's Champions League, which was the last time Liverpool participated in the Champions League in the Benitez era. .

At that time, Fiorentina in Serie A eliminated the Portuguese Super League Lisbon in the UEFA Champions League play-offs to enter the main match, and was finally assigned to a group with Liverpool, and also teamed up with Lyon to squeeze Liverpool out of the top two in the group and missed the Champions League this season Knockout.

   Since then, Serie A teams have lost four games in the Champions League play-offs in five years.

   Season, Sampdoria was eliminated by Werder Bremen in the Champions League play-offs.

   season, Udinese was eliminated by Arsenal in the Champions League play-offs.
