King’s Landing in Nottingham

The 309th chapter feels, is it particularly familiar?

"Hey, Peterson, go a little further to the left, hey, no, it's your left, hey, hey, that's right, it's better to go down a little bit."

"Good, good, very good, that's how it feels, great!"

"Let’s hurry up, colleagues, hurry up. Everyone work hard and adjust the last few billboards. This is the first time our club has appeared in front of all European fans. Don’t lose yourself. Face!"

Feeling a little hoarse in his voice, Zhao Tai took a sip of water to moisturize his throat. He can't remember how long he slept in the past two days. He only knows that for the first round of the UEFA Cup Zero 304, the heads and brains of these clubs are all eating and drinking together. When they are tired, they will be there. Squint on the lounge chair in the pool for a while, and when you wake up you have to run over to supervise the work.

Even with the three-shift arrangement, there are still many employees who do not get enough rest and have been clenching their teeth.

Wei Xun considers himself a humane leader, and he doesn't want to chill his employees. This time, employees who participated in the first round of the UEFA Cup organizing assault project will have three times their salary during the project. After these two days, they can be allocated two days off. After the first round of the competition, the club will choose a schedule. A banquet was held in Wangjiang Tower.

Has Notts County participated in the European War?

Even the oldest fans can't tell this question clearly. Anyway, there is no staff in the club who has experience in organizing European games.

But this is the first time in New Notts County, really.

For some relevant details, Wei Xun still asked Cannavaro, Guardiola, Aveiroa, Van der Sar and other veterans who have experience in intercontinental competitions, and Marotta has no experience in this area.

UEFA officials are also proficient in eating and taking cards, but in terms of serious matters, they did not delay the Notts County club. More than two hours before the start of the game, all the players in the Meadow Lane Stadium The installation and commissioning of equipment, billboards, and live broadcast stations have been completed.

It was at this moment that Wei Xun, Zhao Tai, and Marotta were relieved from being eliminated by Middlesbrough, and Mendes, the group of officials who accompanied UEFA, were eating and drinking. Now that his head and brain are on the construction site, he is naturally indispensable over there.

Being able to participate in intercontinental events is an honor belonging to the people of Notts County. For this moment, all the staff of the Notts County Club have made a lot of efforts.

In fact, the players and coaches of Notts County are not like that. They are looking forward to repaying the front-line staff who have worked hard for two days and two nights with a victory in the game.

Many people are inexplicably moved because even big bosses such as Wei Xun and Zhao Tai go to the front line in person to move things, support shelves, and deliver meals and water to the employees. They are one piece where they need to move. Bricks.

The workers of the Shengfei Group were familiar with this tradition. This is the corporate culture of their group, where officers and soldiers are equal.

In fact, the canteens in Notts County are managed in this way. Except for the players and older employees, everyone has the same dietary standards in the canteens. Workers and cadres eat well.

…

Just as the Russian Premier League has CSKA Moscow and the Bayi football team in our country’s football league, Romania also implemented a socialist system for a period of time before 1989. Therefore, in their There are also military teams in the league system.

And this team is the Romanian giants that Notts County will face, the Bucharest Stars. This team, born in the military, was also the champion of the European Champions Cup in 1986, the first European champion in the history of Eastern European football. Although it is far from the glory of the past, the lean camel is bigger than a horse, and its strength should not be underestimated.

In the original history, the Bucharest Stars met the Premier League team Southampton in the first round of the UEFA Cup this season. They beat the Saints to advance to the next round with a one-to-one away game and one to zero at home. .

In the second round, they encountered the Premier League's superb team, Liverpool, the Red Army. The score is the same as in the first round, but the final winner is Liverpool.

Notts County and Liverpool face off, and the result is also known. Therefore, the strength of the Bucharest Stars and Notts County can only be said to be between the two, the side that underestimates the enemy, after all, has suffered a painful price.

This history of the Romanian League has played famous players such as Haji, Perelescu, Dorinel Monteanu, and so on. It also continues some of the traditions of Eastern European teams, that is, the lack of player mobility and their In the lineup, almost all Romanian players.

According to the list provided by the opponent before the game, only goalkeeper Vasily holds Russian and Belarusian passports. The Bucharest star’s main central defender, Nana, was born in Cameroon, but he has also applied for a Romanian passport.

Is this feeling particularly familiar?

A strong taste of Athletic Bilbao rushed to the face.

The whole team is Basque.

It is worth mentioning that Dorinel Monteanu is in the Bucharest star team at this time. The Romanian is now 35 years old and has just returned from Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. Embrace, give play to the heat in the final stages of his career.

This person has played for Cologne and Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. Besides Haji and Petlescu, he is one of the few players in the Romanian team with experience in the top five leagues. But their life trajectory is different. Haji went out from the Bucharest Stars, and finally joined Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​while Petlescu went to Chelsea, and later even went to Jiangsu and Guizhou in the Super League. The team served as the head coach for a period of time.

And Dorinel Monteanu came back here at the end of his career, but this veteran is still very strong.

Guardiola knows this. Cannavaro, Van der Sar, and Abelardo all know that they are old opponents in the European arena and at the national team level.

"In this game, our focus is on him, Dorinel Monteanu! The opponent's No. 8 player, you must always be vigilant. Although he is not tall, his technique is very delicate and the overall situation is very strong. , Can often send some unexpected passes, so the back line of this game must be extra careful!"

"Understood the coach!"

Carvalho nodded and said yes, Abelardo also gestured to his old teammates with no problem, and Italian central defender Cannavaro, who had just returned to the team from injury, was on the bench at any time. On standby.

The lineup of Notts County in this game has not changed much. The goalkeeper is still Dutchman Van der Sar, and the four defenders are Fabio Grosso, Abelardo, Carvalho and Lichsteiner. Both Ram and Danny Alves, who are more offensive, are sitting on the bench, and the cup still needs to be based on defense.

There are some adjustments in the midfield, with Xavi Alonso and full-time defensive Anthony Elte in the back midfielder, and Brazilian international Ronaldinho in the front midfielder. Thiago Motta, Warren Doyle and Montolivo are on standby at any time.

The three frontcourt players have not changed. Cristiano Ronaldo, Drogba and Arjan Robben are still the main players in Notts County! Frank Ribery, Klose, Malouda and Kuyt can all play.

The defense is solid, the offense is creative, and the finishing ability is extremely strong. This lineup just seems to make the fans of Notts County very relieved.
