Chapter 537 Romance of the Three Kingdoms

The start of the Bundesliga is one game a week, and the schedule is relatively loose.

The draw for the UEFA Champions League group stage happened to be on Thursday night, and the Bayern players also had more time, so they all dragged their families and gathered at Su Dong's house for a dinner, which turned into a team-building activity in the locker room.

The reason why it became like this is because of Pepe and Marcelo.

After joining Bayern, Su Dong's commercial value was further enhanced, and he signed several heavy sponsorships, including a TV company from East Asia. Not long ago, they sponsored Su Dong's [-]-inch super-large flat-screen TV.

For this TV, Su Dong simply spent another sum of money to upgrade the audio-visual system in the living room.

Pepe and Marcelo came to Su Dong's house every now and then, and even often had meals. They were full of praise for the big TV and audio-visual system in Su Dong's living room. When they heard the Champions League group stage draw in the locker room, the two immediately murmured that they wanted to have dinner at Su Dong's house and watch the draw ceremony by the way.

Needless to say, Franck Ribery also has that kind of escape character, how can such a good thing be missed?

Greenwald is a small town, but it is safe and well-known, and it is also a well-known wealthy area. It is close to Sebena Street, so it has become the most popular area for Bayern players.

Many people in the locker room discovered that they hadn't visited Su Dong's house since he moved. They only knew from media reports that Su Dong's villa was designed by a famous German designer, and it was said that he had won several design awards. This made them very interested and wanted to visit.

After this back and forth, Kahn and Lucio both suggested that the new season has not yet organized a team building, so they simply take this opportunity to build a team.

Of course everyone has no problem.

Su Dong just asked timidly, can he protest?
The answer is, yes, but the protest was ruthlessly dismissed!

So the [-]th day appeared. After the training, the team went home separately, and then came to Su Dong’s house as guests with their families. Su Dong also passed the club early and specially invited famous chefs from Munich to cook for the players and their families. At the same time, they also invited bands, circuses and magicians to entertain the guests, especially the children.

In the end, even Rummenigge and Heynckes, who lived nearby, came.

Fortunately, Dong Su's house is big enough to accommodate many guests without any problem.

As the hostess, Wang Chuqing was naturally in charge of entertaining the players' wives and children, while Su Dong and the others were simply sitting in the living room, drinking freshly squeezed juice and eating delicious food. The atmosphere was great.

Due to the large number of people, some sat on the sofa, some sat on the carpet, some sat on the coffee table, and some simply stood directly, forming a very interesting scene in the huge living room.

Rummenigge and Heynckes were standing at the entrance, looking at the scene in front of them, they both found it very interesting.

"I have already photographed this scene, and I will send it back to the official website. When the time comes, I will post it to show the fans that the inside of our locker room is still very united." Rummenigge said with relief.

Heynckes also nodded very satisfied.

Bayern's locker room is indeed very harmonious and united, mainly because at this stage everyone has a common desire and goal in their hearts, and that is victory!success!

Needless to say, Su Dong, who has been a double football player for two consecutive years, is still full of hunger for honor and victory. This is not easy, and it is also what Heynckes admires and even admires the most.

Although Ribery became famous in the World Cup, before he joined Bayern, no rich team had any substantial contact with him.

And Robben, he was very unsatisfactory in the late stage of Chelsea. Mourinho didn't want to see him at all. Even in November last year, when Chelsea publicly contacted Malouda, Robben once said that if Chelsea introduced Malouda, he would leave the team.

This is already a very obvious threat, but does Chelsea care?
Didn't the Blues still introduce Malouda and then talk about contract renewal with Robben?

This is definitely a great humiliation for Robben, because it means that his status in the Chelsea team has plummeted, and he is not even valued by the coaching staff and management.

Therefore, Peter Pan of the Netherlands said when he transferred to Bayern that he wanted to prove himself again here.

Head coach Heynckes said he wanted to prove himself, Su Dong also said he wanted to prove himself again, Ribéry and Robben were the same, other Bayern players also wanted to prove themselves again after experiencing the trough of last season, plus Marcelo, Modric, Mascherano and others, aren't they all thinking of proving their own strength?
Su Dong is right, Bayern is a team of Avengers!
At this time, the hearts of the players are the most united, and it is also the easiest to achieve results.

"We have a lot to do this season!" Heynckes laughed.

Last season, he won the Bundesliga championship that he had not seen for more than ten years, and now is the time for him to be full of ambition.

"No matter who is drawn in the lottery, we have the confidence to beat the opponent!"

……

The drawing of lots and the awarding of prizes are carried out alternately.

Su Dong and the Bayern players didn't care about the awards, because it had nothing to do with them.

If the lottery is drawn, there is no suspense for the eight seeded teams, and they will be divided into eight groups.

There is no doubt that Manchester United, Liverpool, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Arsenal and Chelsea are the most powerful teams in European football today.

And Chelsea only successfully entered the first seeded team this year. It can also be seen that Abramovich's investment in these years has indeed been fruitful, because the UEFA Champions League classification considers the European war points in the past five seasons, and Abramovich has only been in charge of Chelsea for four years.

However, the appearance of a behemoth like Bayern in the second-tier team is undoubtedly a huge pressure on all seeded teams. Therefore, at the lottery scene, when the second-tier team was about to be drawn, the atmosphere obviously became tense.

The atmosphere in the living room was also tense, and everyone was discussing who was not so bad.
"Real Madrid or Arsenal." Su Dong gave his answer with a smile.

Others have different opinions, some agree and disagree.

Su Dong's explanation for this is that Real Madrid looks very strong, but in fact they are not very good, and they have not been able to advance from the top sixteen in the past few years. "Luck may be one aspect, but the lack of strength is certain."

"In the knockout rounds of the Champions League, without strength, no matter how good luck is, it is useless. Therefore, in the [-] season, teams such as Valencia, Porto, Monaco and Deportivo can rise. This is not without reason."

"What about Arsenal? This team is not weak." Modric asked.

Before joining Bayern, he almost went to Arsenal. Wenger admired him very much at the time.

"Arsenal feels a little rich and secure now. In order to build a new stadium, Wenger is also cutting down on food and clothing. He has sold Vieira and Henry one after another. Now the Gunners have too many young players. Wenger's goal should be the top four in the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League."

It is also preparing to build a new stadium. Bayern also invested huge sums of money in the Allianz Arena, but still spent a large amount of money and invested it in the transfer market. On the contrary, Arsenal was unwilling to do so. This is the difference in business philosophy between the two.

Of course, there are practical considerations as well.

For example, Bayern is confident that after investing a huge amount of money, they can achieve immediate results in the Bundesliga, while Arsenal feel that even if they invest a lot of money, it will be difficult to make a difference in the Premier League. As for the Champions League, this is even more dependent.

Everyone also felt that it was reasonable, but some people had reservations.

Well, in football, everyone has their own eyes, and everyone has a different understanding. This is the most interesting part of football.

……

Bayern's luck is indeed not bad.

Because in the subsequent draw, Bayern was drawn into the same group as Real Madrid.

It can only be said that among the eight seeded teams, the encounter is relatively better.

But this brings up another problem, that is, Bayern will go to the Bernabeu for the first game.

This will be a very difficult test, because for Bayern, now is the time to be complacent. If the away game is not played well, it is likely to hit the morale of the team, and then form a chain reaction.

However, in the draw for teams in the third tier, luck was not so good. After avoiding the two teams from the same country, Bayern's group did not draw the weakest Steaua Bucharest, nor did it draw the relatively weak Celtics, or Marseille, which had lost Ribery, but drew the strongest Lazio.

This is where it gets tricky.

Real Madrid, Bayern and Lazio, three teams in the same group, may capsize at any time.

The final draw was Olympiacos from Greece.

When the lottery ended, everyone in the living room was talking about it.

It cannot be said that the luck of signing this time is bad, but it is not much better. The main reason is that Lazio was drawn in the third tier, which is quite unlucky.

As a team in the second tier, Bayern really has no choice, and the first tier must encounter a strong team.

It's all right now, I'll give you the whole Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and what's more terrible, who is Cao Cao?Who is Sun Liu?

And from the perspective of the schedule, Bayern is indeed relatively unfavorable, because it is really a huge challenge to visit the Bernabeu for the first game, especially considering that Bayern has a large number of international players. After just participating in the national competition for two weeks, it is very difficult to go to the Bernabeu.

What's more, before facing the Bernabeu, Bayern's opponent in the fifth round of the league was Schalke [-], one of the favorites to win the championship.

In the fourth round of the league, that is, this weekend, Bayern will go north to Hamburg to challenge the North King away.

It can be said that such a schedule, even if it is as tyrannical as Bayern, is quite a test.

If you are not careful, you may be pulled off the horse directly.

Heynckes and Rummenigge also knew this clearly, so after the draw came out, they all reminded the players to stay focused, especially in the next two weeks of national team competitions, and never get injured.

But the looming problem is burgers.
