Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Starting from January 8th, Serie A will officially kick off the UU Year, and each team will return to the league competition.  The ownership of the league championship, the candidate for the top scorer, and the generation of relegation places will become the three most concerning suspense in the second half of this season.  At the end of 2005, Fiorentina won the title of "Winter Champion" with a one-point advantage. However, in the history of Serie A, the "Winter Champion" only has a more than UU% chance of becoming the final champion.  This advantage is really not that big.  If Fiorentina is led by an experienced and stable coach like Capello, the probability of winning the championship may be greater, but a young coach like Prandelli who has never won a league championship, although he is talented, will not win the championship.  The probability will probably be lower than UU%.  There are two hurdles in front of Florence, these two hurdles do not come from opponents, but from himself.  Due to the suspension, Chen Yu and other four main players were unable to play, which made every game in Florence very difficult. Although the opponent in the 18th round was the underdog Reggina, considering that Empoli could  A draw with Fiorentina, a draw with Reggina at home, or even a defeat against Fiorentina cannot be said to not happen.  The opponent in the 19th round is the seventh-ranked Chievo. With Florence short of major generals, they have a high possibility of ending Florence's unbeaten myth.  Florence's crisis is Juventus' opportunity. In the 18th and 19th rounds, Juventus' opponents are Palermo and Reggina respectively. With Juventus' stability, it is possible to win regardless of home or away game.  It can't be considered small. As long as Florence fails to win a game, Juventus's chance of overtaking Florence is very high.  For the Milan duo, it is not hopeless to catch up with Juventus and Fiorentina in the league standings, but the chance of success is really not very great.  If they still cannot narrow the gap with Juventus in the last one or two months, then the Milan duo may gradually give up on the league and instead focus their main attention on the Champions League.  As for Livorno, Chievo, Roma, Lazio, etc., who are currently ranked 5678th in the standings, I am afraid they will not have the ambition to compete for the championship this season. How to keep their UEFA Cup seats, and then hit the Champions League seats, is  their most realistic goals.  The league championship is Florence's biggest goal, and the ownership of the top scorer is another goal that Florence is particularly concerned about.  Last season's top scorer Chen Yu steadily averaged more than one goal per game and almost made the top scorer lose suspense. However, due to the suspension, Tony has gradually caught up. Currently, Chen Yu has scored 17 goals, while Tony's goals  The number has also reached 16, only one goal behind Chen Yu. But now Chen Yu has to be suspended for two games, but Tony can get a chance to play. As long as Tony scores one goal in two games, he can tie Chen Yu.  Feathered.  With Chen Yu suspended, not only Toni has the opportunity to compete for the top scorer, but other forwards also see hope. In just three rounds, the competition for the top scorer has changed. Trezeguet has already won.  After scoring 15 goals, they caught up with Tony. If nothing else happens, the top scorer should be between the three of them.  But if there is a bizarre situation in the second half of this season where Gilardino and Lucarelli each scored 4 goals in the same game like last season, then Adriano and Gilardi, who are currently ranked 415th on the scorer list,  There is still hope for competition.  ¡°Compared with the relatively clear competition for the league champion and top scorer, the most elusive thing is actually the league¡¯s relegation situation.  Among the teams currently at the bottom of the standings, there are Cagliari and Messina, two island teams that have shown dark horse status in previous years, as well as newly promoted teams like Treviso.  However, among these teams, the most eye-catching is Parma, which was also one of the "Seven Sisters of Serie A" in the past.  In fact, in last season's Serie A, Parma barely managed to avoid relegation through the final play-offs.  After selling the relegation hero Gilardino this season, the team's strength has further declined, and the investment promised by former Real Madrid chairman Sanz has also been delayed.  If Parma eventually becomes one of the relegated teams, it will be another tragedy after Fiorentina's relegation four years ago.  In the 18th round, the relegation teams are having a hard time. Treviso will play Roma, who are gradually recovering, Messina will go away and fight Empoli, who are also fighting for relegation. Cagliari's opponent is  Mid-range teams Udinese and Parma are going to challenge AC Milan. Almost none of the bottom four teams has any hope of winning.  The championship-winning team cannot be said to be very comfortable. In addition to AC Milan having a good chance of playing Parma at home, Fiorentina, who is at the top of the list, is short of major generals and has to play away from home. There is a high possibility of a win, a draw or a loss.  Although Juventus and Inter Milan have better records and are stronger, their opponents in this round made them suffer last season. Palermo defeated Juventus at home last season, and Siena also  The home draw was against an Inter Milan team that was unbalanced in offense and defense at the time. Sometimes the styles of play were in conflict with each other. Even though Juventus and Inter Milan were very strong, they might have capsized in the gutter.  Since mid-week?In the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, the top two teams Fiorentina and Juventus took the lead in the match. These two games were related to the top position. Both teams also played their best and devoted all their energy to the game.  , did not stay at all for the Italian Cup in midweek, but the process of the game still worried the fans. Fiorentina conceded a goal in the first minute, and then they counterattacked vigorously, but they were still unable to break through Reggina's goal. The difficulties continued.  It was only in the second half that Jorgensen, who returned from injury, equalized the score. At this time, everyone thought that Florence would pursue the victory and reverse the opponent. However, Florence seemed to have not woken up from the vacation state. After equalizing the score, it began to sleepwalk until  In the last minute, he was unable to create another chance to score a goal, not even as good as Reggina, who even hit a goal post in the RR minute.  Fiorentina has never been able to gain the upper hand, which gave Juventus hope, but Palermo is indeed not a team that is easy to mess with. They also paid great attention to the game against Juventus, and it was Palermo who scored the first goal.  Tellizi, but Juventus' viper Mutu showed off his power in the second half and scored twice. He single-handedly led Juventus to reverse Palermo and also helped Juventus overtake Fiorentina again with a one-point advantage.  , ascended to the top of the standings.  The setback of top-ranking Fiorentina was an excellent opportunity for the Milan duo. However, in the face of the opportunity, the Milan duo also showed completely different psychological qualities and mentality. AC Milan fell behind three times, tied three times, and at the last moment  With the Ukrainian nuclear warhead Shevchenko's goal, they completed a great reversal, but Inter Milan once again fell into the strange circle of last season. They were eager for success in the face of opportunities, but in the end they failed to score a goal and could only be unwilling to do so.  They willingly shook hands with Siena and made peace, ending their six-game winning streak.  After this battle, AC Milan has reduced its score with the top spot by one point. Now it is only U points away from the top Juventus, and the gap with Fiorentina has become 5 points, while the gap between Inter Milan and the top spot has been narrowed.  It's as big as 10 points. Although this can still be regarded as a hopeless gap, with Inter Milan's mentality, they basically have no hope of winning the championship. Keeping their Champions League seat is their best choice in the relegation battle.  Messina, the only one with any hope of winning, really won. They defeated Empoli and got out of the relegation zone. They also pushed Empoli's head coach Soma directly into the crater and may be dismissed at any time.  .  Cagliari was upset at home and defeated Udinese.  Treviso and Parma did not have such good luck. Roma and AC Milan did not let the upset happen, and the loss also allowed Treviso and Parma to stabilize the last two positions.  The game against Reggina caused Fiorentina to fall from the top spot, and also made Prandelli and Fiorentina players realize the dangerous situation at hand. Now they are one point behind Juventus, and the gap with AC Milan is only  5 points, they must not draw or lose in the next game with Chievo, otherwise they will be surpassed by 3 or 4 points by Juventus, and the fate of winning the championship will not be in Florence's hands.  After the game, "Gazzetta dello Sport" believed that Juventus finally took the lead in the championship. Even though the one-point advantage was very weak, in the hands of a conservative master like Capello, even a one-point advantage was lost.  You can play tricks.  "Republic" said that Chen Yu's dependence syndrome finally broke out. Without Chen Yu, Fiorentina had two wins and two draws in the last four games. The key is that the opponents are very weak. It is really too bad to achieve such results.  Under such circumstances, Prandelli boldly made the decision to abandon the Coppa Italia. The day after the 18th round, Prandelli announced his starting line-up for the second round of the Coppa Italia against Juventus.  In the lineup, the U-name main players, including Toni, were hidden. Only three suspended players, Chen Yu, Montolivo, and Fiore, came on the field with a group of substitutes to compete with Juventus for a top eight qualification.  With Chen Yu, Montolivo, and Fiore, seven rookies, it is almost a dream to beat Juventus. Although Capello also hides a few main players, the gap between the two teams' substitutes is huge. Juventus  Tus came again with the confidence of winning. In the end, in this game that was considered a preview of the Italian Cup finals, Fiorentina lost 4:4 and Juventus advanced to the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup.  The Italian Cup is Prandelli¡¯s strategic abandonment. There is nothing wrong with the defeat. However, what Prandelli and the fans cannot accept is that the main goalkeeper Frey needs surgery due to a torn left ankle ligament. He will miss the rest of the season.  As the substitute goalkeeper of the French team, he will also say goodbye to the World Cup.  Frey's injury made fans and the media very pessimistic about Florence's future. The media said that Florence had lost both fronts and might repeat the collapse of last season. Fans were very worried about the team's state. At the entrance of Florence's training base  , hundreds of fans held banners saying "Chen Yu come back quickly". For Florence fans, Chen Yu is their last glimmer of hope.If Chen Yu can't turn the tide, it's not impossible for Florence to repeat last season's collapse.  As the saying goes, misfortune never comes singly. After being eliminated from the Coppa Italia, losing its top spot in the league, and after the main goalkeeper was injured and reimbursed, Fiorentina once again encountered misfortune. Due to differences between the club's senior management and the owners of the Stadio Franchi over the rental issue, Fiorentina started from January.  Starting from the 19th round of Serie A on the 15th, Fiorentina will temporarily be unable to play home games at the Stadio Franchi.  After the Italian Cup, the Fiorentina club reluctantly announced that the home game against Chievo will be temporarily arranged to be played at the home court of Perugia.  Under various unfortunate blows, the game against Chievo has become less important. For Florence, finding a reliable goalkeeper is now above all else. Last season's goalkeeper Cejas can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.  After being idle for half a season this season, it will be difficult for him to lead Florence to compete for the league championship, let alone make a difference in the Champions League.  Although it is now during the winter break, Fiorentina can buy people, but the goalkeeper position is very special. Every team has a main goalkeeper, and the main goalkeeper will basically occupy all the time, because the goalkeeper is basically not injured and has no  Due to physical problems, it is difficult for the substitute goalkeeper to even have a chance to play for one minute.  It is definitely hopeless for Fiorentina to buy the main goalkeeper of other teams. A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half the team. This sentence is enough to illustrate the importance of the goalkeeper. Unless a team does not want results, it will never buy its main goalkeeper midway.  The goalkeeper is sold.  So now for Florence, there is only one option, which is to find a reliable, practical and capable substitute goalkeeper from other teams, rather than hoping to buy a main goalkeeper with both strength, status and potential.  Toldo, Inter Milan's substitute goalkeeper, was once known as San Toldo. Before Frei was injured, Florence was ready to replace him with Bodinov as a substitute, but at that time it was only a small sum of money.  There was no deal, but now he has been upgraded to Florence's most important transfer.  Apart from Toldo, Florence doesn¡¯t have much choice now.  Transfers always start with the goalkeeper and end with the forward, and this winter is no exception.  In the first three days of the transfer window, several "big" transactions were related to goalkeepers. Chimondi went to Cagliari, and Parma's Lu Patelli was exchanged for Palermo's Guadalben.  Three good goalkeepers have been transferred. The remaining ones include Lazio's Ballotta, Palermo's Santoni, and Roma goalkeeper Curchi. Among them, Lazio's Balota and Palermo's Santoni are substitute goalkeepers.  But they almost squeezed out the main goalkeeper. They are very strong, and because of their strength, they are not willing to be goalkeepers who have no chance to play for a minute.  Roma goalkeeper Curchi is the main goalkeeper, but he was squeezed out by substitute goalkeeper Doni due to injury. Going from the main goalkeeper to the substitute goalkeeper is no better than going from a general to a slave. So if Roma cannot give Curchi the main goalkeeper, Curchi will be the main goalkeeper.  Erqi will obviously choose to leave too.  Before Frey was injured, these substitute goalkeepers were definitely not willing to be Frey's substitute. But after Frey was injured and reimbursed, these substitute goalkeepers became very interested in Florence's invitation. Everyone knows that this is  There are still 18 rounds of games left for a chance to rise to the top. As long as he has the strength and can secure his position, even if Frey recovers from injury next season, he may not be able to regain his position.  The substitute goalkeeper wants to go to Florence, but the club of the substitute goalkeeper does not want to let him go, especially Lazio, Roma and Inter Milan. They are all competitors of Florence. If Florence collapses, Inter Milan is expected to win the championship, and the Roma duo are expected to reach the top four.  Strong, got a Champions League seat, sponsoring a good goalkeeper in Florence at this time, wouldn't it be embarrassing for yourself?  The top management of the Fiorentina club contacted the agents of several goalkeepers and found that the goalkeepers had a very positive attitude and thought that the signing problem was not a big problem. The price quoted was a bit low. The salary quoted for Toldo was the same as that of Inter Milan.  It is planned to exchange for Bodinov, and Inter Milan will also need to add 3 million euros.  Moratti was naturally not happy about this. Although he and De La Valle have been friends for many years, friends are friends and business is business. Europeans understand this very clearly. Moratti feels that Florence is in urgent need of goalkeepers now, but he still  Dare to increase the price, Moratti directly replied to Della Valle, saying that Toldo plays an important role in Inter Milan. With Frey's experience, he dare not let Toldo leave, because if Cesar is injured, Tordo will  If Toldo is gone, there will be no one left as the second goalkeeper.  Fiorentina then contacted Roma goalkeeper Curchi. Curchi was very interested in going to Florence and did not ask for a high annual salary. However, Roma refused to let him go. Roma president Sensi said that Curchi and Doni were both main goalkeepers and they would  He plays in rotation and cannot be transferred out during the winter break.  Too many goalkeeper changes will inevitably affect defensive tactics and effects.  Like Parma and Palermo, the three goalkeepers are used interchangeably, and the number of goals conceded is P and 25 respectively, ranking fourth (the worst Siena conceded 30 goals), so Sensi's words are just a lie.  ??, I just don¡¯t want to give Curchi to Florence.  Curchi and Toldo are Florence's first choices. Only if they really can't deal with them will Florence consider Lazio's Barlotta and Palermo's Santoni.  ¡° Subsequently, Della Valle made concessions and prepared to directly exchange Bodinov for Toldo without Inter Milan adding money, but Moratti still said that Della Valle¡¯s offer was not sincere.  And Roma President Sensi doesn't want Bodinov, he only wants money, and it's fifteen million, not a single coin less.  This made De La Valle very angry. He publicly stated that if he could not buy a good goalkeeper, it would be better to let Cejas continue to be the main player. Cejas had already played as the main player last season, and his record was not much worse than Frey.  .  But Prandelli said that whether Cejas can be the main player depends on the weekend match against Chievo. If Cejas cannot adapt to high-intensity competition, Florence must buy someone else, otherwise there will be no hope of winning the championship.
