240 Rome

The championship competition between Manchester United and Blackburn has entered a white-hot level.

Except for these two teams, there are no comparison between these two teams. Arsenal, the Premier League champion in the previous two years, has obviously declined this season. There are many problems.

First of all, Henry entered the state too late. The other is Petite, the midfielder, who is in average condition this season. And the playing style of the two sides, especially Ovimas on the left, conflicts with Henry.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, Arsenal's defense is too old. Too old. Adams and Keon are both thirty-four years old. Although they are strong, they are old and can't keep up with the rhythm of the Premier League. With their excellent consciousness and experience, it is already very amazing to gain a foothold in a rich family like Arsenal.

For good, with Henry's adaptation, Arsenal began to catch up. It has shaken off Leeds United and become the third place in the Premier League.

The Leeds United, which had a strong momentum in the first half of the season, has plummeted since the scandal of Woodgate and Lee Bowyer. Although these rounds have begun to stabilize their position, they have jumped from the team that can compete for the championship to the fourth place.

For good, in these games, O'Leiley finally rectified Leeds United.

Liverpool has shown a great upward momentum this season. After buying a lot of players last summer, Liverpool's performance began to improve a lot. However, Holyer's transformation is not over yet.

And Chelsea has completely fallen. Ranked fifth in the Premier League.

There are too many Chelsea veterans. From the back line to the midfielder and the striker are all old. In addition, although Viali has achieved brilliant results during his time as a player, he obviously can't suppress Chelsea's veterans. So Chelsea's performance this season is even worse.

None of the teams below has the strength to shake the status of Manchester United and Blackburn. Even Arsenal, the third place in the Premier League, is 14 points away from Manchester United and Blackburn.

This year's Premier League was only born between Manchester United and Blackburn.

After playing Tottenham Hotspur, George led Blackburn on an expedition to Rome, Italy.

The top 16 of the UEFA Cup is about to start at the Rome Olympic Stadium.

Speaking of Roma, it is also a poor team. Or the whole Roma team is very pitiful.

Rome, the capital of Italy, is located in the lower plains of the River. It is the political, historical, cultural and transportation center of Italy. It is also the birthplace of ancient Rome and the splendid culture of the world, with a history of more than 2,500 years. It is a treasure house of art, a famous cultural city, and the seat of the Roman Catholic Church. It is the largest and most populous city in Italy, and one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world.

The history of Rome can't be finished for a day and a night.

But in terms of Italian football, although Rome has Roma and Lazio, their history is very pale. As the capital team, the history of Roma and Lazio is really unbearable. Even Blackburn's history is better than that of Roma and Lazio.

Roma only has two league championships, and Lazio has only one league championship.

And Milan's two teams, not to mention the Champions League, has 16 league championships for AC Milan alone. There are also thirteen league championships of Inter Milan, which are rivals in the same city. And there are seven of the two teams in Milan, the Champions League champions.

The two teams in Turin, Juventus have 25 league championships and Turin has seven league championships.

Compared with the two teams in Milan and the two teams in Turin, the historical results of the two teams in Rome are shabby.

As the two teams in the capital, Rome and Lazio have always been very disgratic.

But even if you are not so, there is nothing you can do. Not to mention history, even now the two teams do not have the strength to wrestle with Milan and Juventus. Behind AC Milan stands the Italian media tycoon Berlusconi.

Although Inter Milan has repeatedly missed the championship in recent years, it is also supported by the Moratti family of the oil family. Juventus is even more amazing. It is controlled by the Agnelli family, a symbol of Italy's wealth and glory.

Compared with these three teams, Rome and Lazio are just a small fight.

George underestimated Rome, but he didn't know that they underestimated Blackburn. What team is Blackburn? It's just with Jack. How can Walker's upstart be compared with Rome? And more Roman fans don't even know Jack. Walker doesn't know that Blackburn won the Premier League championship more than four years ago.

Italian football is at this time to be bullish. Blackburn's small team can't be in their eyes.

Black was quiet at the beginning. Few Italian media are willing to talk to George, but George doesn't care. When we defeat Rome, let's see what your expressions are.

It will soon be March 2nd.

George has also been to many stadiums, including Manchester United's Old Trafford and Wembley Stadium.

But the Rome Olympic Stadium is definitely ranked among the world's stadiums. Although this stadium has a long history, it is still so beautiful and magnificent.

But after entering the court, George frowned.

The Olympic Stadium is a large stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people. Of course, in general, it is said that the Olympic Stadium can accommodate 80,000 people. In fact, the Olympic Stadium has 80,000 seats and 25,000 standing seats.

However, the Olympic Stadium is obviously not a professional football stadium.

After getting used to all kinds of professional football fields in England, George was not used to seeing a court with a track for a while. And George looked up and down, and now there is still half an hour before the start of the game.

If it is in England, 70% to 80% of the fans have poured in at this time. Start singing and cheering for the home team.

But now there are only ten or twenty thousand fans watching the Olympic Stadium. There are a lot of open spaces on the whole court. If it's a small stadium like Ewood Park, it's not very conspicuous. But in such a large stadium as the Olympic Stadium, it is particularly dazzling.

Although there are still fans coming in to look for seats, George still shakes his head.

There is a reason for the decline of Serie A. There are so few fans on the scene. According to George's estimate, even if there is another half an hour, there will only be about 40,000 fans at most. If it is placed in Blackburn, there are enough fans on the spot.

But Rome and Blackburn are completely incomparable. Rome is a city with a population of more than 2.5 million, while Blackburn has only 140,000. But George believes that even if Blackburn's stadium capacity reaches 50,000 or 60,000, the enthusiasm of Blackburn fans can still fill the stadium.

But as a city with a population of more than 2.5 million, there are so few live fans of the Roma team that it can't be said.

A stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people with so few fans. How to reflect the home atmosphere. George shook his head.

When George was in Burnley, although in the lower league, the enthusiasm of the fans exceeded that of Roma.

Sure enough, George's guess is correct. The game is about to start. Roman fans didn't even fill half of the seats in the Olympic Stadium. This is still the heyday of Serie A, and there are so few fans on the scene. What about the future?

"Hello, Coach Capello."

Blackburn's playing style may be different from Capello's, but George pursues the same as Capello's. George and Capello are both coaches who are heavy on performance and don't care about the scene. It should be said that they are all coaches with utilitarian surnames.

George likes Capello. One of my favorites is that Capello is the "champion coach". As long as there is Capello, no matter how ugly the scene is, there will still be a champion.

And Capello was at the helm of the Milan dynasty in the early 1990s. When Capello led Milan to sweep Serie A, George had not yet become the head coach.

"Hello, Coach Levy." Unlike the smile on George's face, Capello is very serious.

After greeting George, Capello returned to his bench. George shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

It seems that Capello doesn't pay attention to me at all, and he doesn't care about George at all. However, George is still a little famous in British football at most. Who knows George in Europe? As a world-famous coach, Capello takes it for granted that he looks down on himself.

It's just that George has a slight loss.

Capello is qualified to look down on George, but George himself can't look down on himself.

In addition to the faint loss, George was more angry. Mom, you Capello just achieved great success in Milan. I'm still young. When I reach your grade, the world will be mine. When I dominate the football world, you will be old.

If you get enough results, you will have the prestige of Ferguson. How can Capello ignore himself so much?

Humph!

George can't get the reputation of Ferguson in a short time. But it's okay to give you a slap first. Cook your Roman food, and I'll see if you have a big face to set me up.

If Capello knew what George was thinking now, he must have smiled bitterly.

Capello did not mean to ignore George. But now Capello's performance in the Roma League is very poor, and there has been a lot of pressure recently. Capello has been considering whether to continue the journey of the UEFA Cup.

And Capello is not a coach like Ferguson and Wenger. Ferguson doesn't have a bad temper, but he is usually very kind. Although Wenger has never been integrated into British football, he has a good relationship with George. So George has a good relationship with Ferguson and Wenger.

But that's what Capello's surname is. It is rare to talk and laugh with strange coaches. It has always been cold.

When the two head coaches were immersed in their own ideas, the referee's whistle sounded.

"The 16-to-eight game of the UEFA Cup has begun. The two sides of the game are Blackburn from England and Rome from Italy.
