PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.

Ranieri led Chelsea to eliminate his former club Fiorentina. After the news of his surprise advance to the Champions League final was heard by the media, it immediately caused an 8-magnitude earthquake in European football!

The most successful European club in the past decade, the defending Champions League champion Fiorentina was killed by a mere Chelsea team? How is this possible?! After most people learned the news, their inner shock was beyond words. They never thought that Chelsea could actually kill Florence in the semi-finals!

The English media were naturally extremely excited about this result. The next morning they wrote articles touted Chelsea, and proudly claimed that Chelsea was the strongest team in Europe - they all chose to forget how they looked down on the Blues one-sidedly the day before the second leg, believing that Ranieri's team should not suffer a crushing defeat in front of Fiorentina, even if it was the greatest contribution to English football.

This argument from the English media has made non-English clubs, including Real Madrid, Barcelona and Milan, feel deeply dissatisfied. After all, the map cannon released by the English media this time is really too big: Chelsea dared to make it the strongest in Europe after winning Fiorentina. So do you take us seriously?

In fact, even the domestic teams in England are very unhappy about this, especially the two clubs, Manchester United and Arsenal. They also believe that the media’s praise of Chelsea is too much. You should know that in the current Premier League, Manchester United and Arsenal are the well-deserved top teams. Although Chelsea has achieved certain results in the past decade, regardless of historical background or recent honors, the Blues are not worthy of the title of “the strongest in Europe”.

If Chelsea really dares to respond to the media's flattery, then what awaits them next will definitely be the tenacious obstacles of countless teams. Because these Premier League teams usually play against Chelsea a lot, they naturally know the true level of the Blues. Therefore, if there is a chance to expand their influence and the price is only to defeat Chelsea, these teams will be very happy to complete this task.

Fortunately, the person who coaches Chelsea now is Ranieri, a cautious and good-looking guy, not a high-profile and arrogant guy or is not good at communicating with the media, which does not cause any greater trouble. With the efforts of the pot makers, Chelsea successfully transferred these hatred values ​​to the English media in a timely manner, which has not made itself the target of public criticism and has become the target of being attracted by everyone.

Along with this dissatisfaction voice, there are countless coveted eyes. After all, these Chelsea players have really made a big splash in the Champions League this time, and the achievements of eliminating Fiorentina have added a lot of money to their resumes. At the same time, this has also made more teams have a strong interest in Chelsea players.

For most team managers, poaching a team like Chelsea that has proven its own strength but has a large debt is the thing they are most willing to do. Because at this time, they can often get one or even multiple transfer transactions at a much lower price than the market.

Poaching such a team can not only enhance its own strength and bench depth, but also save the club a transfer fund. Who wouldn't be happy to do such a good thing?

I believe that this summer, countless teams will target Chelsea, which is plagued by the financial crisis, and make their plans. Of course, the premise is that Chelsea did not find a sucker who was willing to smooth out their debts before the transfer window opened this summer.

This is also the main reason why Chelsea’s current boss Bates is still not happy. Because until this time, he still did not receive a offer that was sincere enough about the acquisition of Chelsea. In other words, this stingy boss thought that those acquisitions of Chelsea were "inadequate".

Of course, what made Bates most heartbroken was that he actually agreed to the Inter Milan Club's 13 million euro price for John Terry in the winter transfer period. If the current market conditions were based on the current market, the English central defender who made Vieri mediocre in the two games in the semi-finals could sell at least 5 million euros!

5 million euros! When Bates's heart hurts and bleeds when he thinks of this loss. Nothing can make this boss, who is known for his stinginess and stinginess, feel sleepless at night than a loss in money.

By the way, Terry's value is much lower than that of Ferdinand, who also have English household registration books, but in fact, this is mainly due to the current economic situation, and Chelsea really urgently needs a large amount of funds to make up for the shortfall, which allowed Inter Milan to handle Terry's transfer at a low price of 13 million euros.

After Fiorentina was eliminated, the next step is the battle between AC Milan and Monaco. The winners of these two teams will win another spot in the UEFA Champions League final in the 2003-04 season, and then compete with Chelsea for the final championship trophy on May 27.

Although Ancelotti asked the team to ensure the league rankings and focused on the Champions League field and played very well, the final result was not so satisfactory. In the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Monaco, AC Milan, which had a clear advantage in books, was successfully reversed by this French Ligue 1 powerhouse in the good situation of winning 3-1 in the first leg. Real Madrid abandoned player Morientes and Croatian center Pursau each scored a goal in the game, helping Monaco defeat the Rossau 2-0 at the Louis II Stadium!

In the end, when the two sides scored three to three in the two rounds, AC Milan was blocked from the goal of the Champions League final by Monaco, coached by Deschamps, because of few away goals!
