Chapter 598 Arriving in London

After a week of preparation, Inter Milan arrived at London Heathrow International Airport on the morning of the 3rd.

London Heathrow International Airport is very lively. From the morning, the "blue-black tide" began to gather, surrounding the airport exit channel, and preparing to have a "close contact" with his idol superstar.

These fans include local Inter fans in London and Inter fans who came from Italy in advance. Due to Inter Milan's excellent record in more than a season and a surge in popularity, there are more and more fans. Even on a stadium in a foreign country, thousands of fans come to pick them up. The blue and black fans wear Inter's home uniforms for the new season and hold welcome banners. The atmosphere is quite hot.

After a thousand calls, Inter's team finally began to walk out one after another at 11:56. The screams of the fans at the scene came one after another, and they were very excited. The order at the scene was still orderly under the management of the security guard. Later, it became a little chaotic, but the players of Inter Milan patiently took photos with the fans, simply reply To answer some questions from the reporter, 20 minutes later, the Inter team boarded the prepared bus and left the airport.

After having lunch at the Hilton Hotel, Jiang Mu gave the players a short meeting, mainly in terms of daily life and training in London these two days. Although European players are relatively professional, if you are not strict enough, European players will definitely be lazy. This is due to human nature, no Chinese players alone are like this.

After the meeting, the players took a break, and Jiang Mu and the members of the coaching staff continued to meet. The main discussion was the problem of Ronaldinho. After this period of cultivation, Ronaldinho's strain has basically recovered, but whether he can start, or whether he can play, still needs to be discussed together.

In fact, Jiang Mu knows Ronaldinho's injury the most deeply, because Chang'e-1 has carried out an all-round physical test for Ronaldinho. From the physical point of view alone, Ronaldinho has recovered to the original 80% to 90%, but in terms of psychology and state, Ronaldinho can't compare with the original. .

Of course, Jiang Mu has the power to send Ronaldinho to play, but he can't disrespect the opinions of the team doctor Kongbi and the physical coaches Gautino. After all, he can't make the secret of Chang'e No. 1. From a professional point of view, he must listen to the advice of the team doctor.

Jiang Mu called the team doctor Kong Bi, the physical coach Gautino, the goalkeeper coach Castrini, and the assistant coach Baresi to the conference room and said, "I hope Ronaldinho will start tomorrow's game. Dr. Kongby, what do you think?"

Kongby frowned. In fact, he opposed Ronaldinho's inclusion on the list, because in his opinion, there was no need to take this risk. It was better for Ronaldinho to rest for another week and then start as a substitute. Now Jiang Mu wants Ronaldinho to start, which is beyond the scope of Kongby's acceptance.

"I don't recommend Ronaldinho to start. Now our players are not nervous. I think it's better to let Ronaldinho play as a substitute. If it's not necessary, it's better not to play, otherwise we are likely to lose him all season."

Compi expressed his opinion bluntly. He is a friend of Chairman Moratti, and he has always been outspoken about things in the team.

Physical coach Gautino, goalkeeper coach Castellini looked at each other and did not say anything, while the assistant coach Barresi was promoted by Jiang Mu. He was Jiang Mu's own person. In this case, he interrupted: "Dr. Combi, Ronaldinho How about the physical examination?

Kong Bi said, "It hasn't completely reached the normal state yet. Of course, it's not a big problem for the substitute to play for more than ten minutes. It's a little risky to play the whole game."

Jiang Mu meditated for a moment and said, "Ronardinho needs to play. He is a weapon for us to change the game. Arsenal is a strong team. So far, they have not lost. In the face of such a team, we should be prepared no matter how well. As you know, our goal The mark is the Triple Crown, so the earlier you qualify, the easier it will be to arrange the game behind us. For the benefit of the club, I think it is necessary to take a little risk.

Kong Bi heard this and spread out his hands and said, "Coach Jiang, I've said what my team doctor wants to say, but as for how to make a decision is your right, I have reservations."

Of course, Jiang Mu is not the kind of coach who dares not take responsibility, not to mention the physical test results of Chang'e No. 1. He is very confident to make all decisions.

"Since Dr. Kongby said so, I will make a decision. Ronaldinho will appear as a substitute tomorrow, and the specific time depends on the situation of the game."

Seeing Jiang Mu make a decision, the physical coach Gautino echoed: "Generally speaking, the substitute appearance is relatively reasonable. In fact, with our strength, without Ronaldinho, we have a lot of hope to get three points at the Highbury Stadium."

goalkeeper coach Castellini laughed and said, "I think we can accept the other two results except for losing. This is Arsenal's home court."

Jiang Mu said, "It's acceptable, but it can't be a goal. In any game, with any opponent, our goal is victory. Well, after the meeting, let's go to rest. After such a long flight, in the afternoon, we will go to Haiburi for adaptive training."

Several coaches silently left the conference room to rest. Jiang Mu still sat in the conference room meditating. After a long time, Jiang Mu sighed and got up and left.

Haybury Stadium is located in London, England. The stadium can accommodate 38,500 people, which is one of the smaller stadiums among the giants.

However, Haibri was built very early and began to be put into use in 1913. In World War I, it was lucky to escape the fate of being blown up by German shells. Then he became the center of the region. Arsenal's first game at Haibury was on September 6, 1913, against the Leicester Moat. During World War II, the Haibury Stadium was closed and became a medical center and an air raid warning station. In addition to being a stadium, Haibury has also hosted boxing matches, concerts and other large-scale events. The West Stand in Highbury opened in 1932 and was the most modern stand in England at that time.

On the afternoon of the 4th, Haibry Stadium welcomed their most ferocious enemy, Inter Milan, but now they are not here to play, but to adapt to the field.

Because Inter Milan's itinerary has long been exposed by the professional British media, when Inter Milan came to Haibry Stadium, the stadium was not deserted. Thousands of Inter Milan fans and Arsenal fans stood in the stands waiting for the arrival of Inter Milan superstars. .

The players of Inter Milan went to the locker room to change their clothes. Jiang Mu and the coaches of the coaching staff went to observe this famous European court to see the length and thickness of the turf, the wetness of the court, and the actual size of the court. These have a certain relationship to Jiang Mu's platoon.

Ten minutes later, Inter Milan's players changed their clothes and walked out of the locker room. Inter Milan fans in the stands gave warm applause to their players and shouted the slogan of Inter Milan's victory.

The players expressed their gratitude to the fans who came across the sea to support them, and made a wonderful performance in the following training. Of course, the players will not really practice everything they will play tomorrow. In the opponent's base camp, I don't know how many people are watching. How can the players of Inter Milan show their cards? Show your opponents. They mainly perform, play all kinds of fancy movements, and what kind of clever cooperation. Although these are flashy on the court, they are the most attractive to fans. For non-professional fans, lively is the best, and scoring goals are the best. No matter what the perfect tactics, how to play a 0: The score of 0, no matter how good the tactics are, will not satisfy the fans.

After the training, Jiang Mu and captain Sanetti held a press conference at Hybri Stadium.

At the press conference, Jiang Mu not only expressed his views on tomorrow's game, but also patiently answered questions from the reporter of The Sun.

Reporters were very concerned about Ronaldinho's injury and asked Ronaldinho if he could play tomorrow.

Jiang Mu replied, "Since I took him to London, it means that he may appear, I didn't bring him to London for a trip. However, it is unlikely that it can be started or not.

The reporter asked again whether Ronaldo would start this game. Jiang Mu replied, "Ronaldo has performed very well recently. He has scored continuously. He has given the team a lot of help. Of course, every player has to rely on the team if he wants to play at a high level. Ronaldo has such an excellent performance, the main It's because it's suitable for this whole."

An English reporter asked Jiang Mu if the team had reached the level of his satisfaction after coaching at Inter Milan in the past year. Jiang Mu said that since I coached Inter Milan, I have played more than 50 games. The cooperation, defense and attack of the players in the game can reflect the requirements of many coaches. The coaching staff and I are very satisfied and have been moving forward according to the set goals, but Inter Milan is far from perfect, and we will continue to work hard.

The English reporter asked Jiang Mu again, if he leads Inter Milan to win the Triple Crown, will he still stay in Inter Milan next season?

Jiang Mu's answer to this question is ambiguous. "I don't like to assume that the question about next season will wait until the end of this season. If I can lead Inter Milan to the Triple Crown, I will definitely be very happy, but it has nothing to do with whether I leave or not."

When the reporter asked the goal of tomorrow's game, Jiang Mu said, " Arsenal is a strong team, and it has done well in all aspects. We are not much different from Arsenal. Tomorrow will be a fierce game. We will do our best to play this game well. As for the victory and defeat, We can all accept it. Of course, it's better to win. We hope to qualify from the group as soon as possible.
