i want to be king

Chapter 701
After returning to Munich from Paris, Su Dong immediately went to Turin, Italy with the team to challenge Juventus away.

This is the last game of the group stage.

In the fifth round of the group stage, Juventus handed over a very good situation to Bordeaux, and lost [-]-[-] away to Blanco's team, so that they are now very passive in the group qualifying situation.

In the final round of the group stage, Bordeaux challenged Zurich away, and Juventus played against Bayern at home.

No matter how you look at it, Bordeaux has a better chance of winning.

Before the game, the Italian media have been hyping, hoping that Bayern will be merciful, after all, they have already qualified for the first place.

This is indeed the case for Heynckes. None of the main players such as Su Dong, Robben, Modric, and Marcelo played.

But when it came to the game, Juventus itself was in a mess before Bayern made any effort.

In the first ten minutes, Bayern got consecutive chances, kicked and hit the goal continuously, and even had a center post once.

Although Juventus scored a goal later, Bayern quickly equalized the score.

Juventus kicked more and more anxiously, and finally was beaten to the ground by Bayern's counterattacks again and again.

Four to one!

Without the main generals such as Su Dong and Robben, Bayern defeated Juventus [-]-[-] in an away game.

Not to mention Juventus, even Bayern itself can't believe it.

Even, if it weren't for Bayern's poor performance, it would have turned into a massacre.

Heynckes said inexplicably at the post-match press conference, "This is an unexpected victory!"

Who said no?
Bayern is already planning to release the water, but Juventus still play like this, who can be blamed?

……

Bordeaux beat Zurich [-]-[-] in an away game. In the end, Bayern and Bordeaux qualified together, and Juventus came in third.

After the game, Juventus was strongly criticized by the Italian media, especially Ferrara, who was really too hip to coach.

…………

…………

On the weekend, in the No.16 round of the Bundesliga, Bayern challenged Bochum away.

In the 203rd minute of the game, Olic made a cross from the left, Su Dong pointed forward and shot in the air, opening the scoring for Bayern, [-]-[-].

Ten minutes later, Schweinsteiger sent a through kick. Su Dong went forward to the left side of the penalty area, kicked near the baseline, and hit the ball into the far corner at almost zero angle, making another victory for Bayern, 10-[-].

After Olic scored twice, Thomas Muller and Robben, who came off the bench, each scored a goal.

Bayern finally beat Bochum [-]-[-] away.

As the No.17 round has been carried out ahead of schedule, Bayern's first half of the game ended early.

Needless to say, Bayern won the half-time championship early and early.

…………

…………

From Germany to Abu Dhabi, Bayern directly chartered a special plane.

In this regard, Bayern has always been very willing to invest.

The special plane carried Bayern directly to Abu Dhabi and was warmly welcomed by the local fans.

The organizer also attaches great importance to Bayern's arrival, and the reception standard is extremely high. The hotels they stay in are all the top local Emirates Palace Hotel, and a training ground is also arranged for Bayern to use.

In the past few years, Bayern has almost always gone to the Middle East for training during the winter break. They are very familiar with places such as the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, and they are not unfamiliar with Abu Dhabi, and they adapt faster.

Due to the tight schedule, Bayern immediately went to the training ground for training after arriving in Abu Dhabi.

This attracted many local fans to watch. Around the stadium, there were fans wearing the local traditional costumes of the United Arab Emirates. When they saw Bayern players appearing, they were all very excited, and many people were shouting Su Dong's name.

After Bayern's development of the Middle East in the past few years, Sudong has a great influence in this region. He has also signed three regional sponsors in the Middle East, and the annual income is huge.

……

Bayern's first opponent in the Club World Cup is the champion team from Central and North America, Atlante from Mexico.

In the previous round, this team defeated Auckland City from Oceania [-]-[-] to advance, and their strength is not bad.

However, according to the traditional impression in the past, in the Club World Cup, only the Libertadores Cup champion from South America can barely pose a threat to the Champions League champion team, especially the star-studded Bayern.

Su Dong and Bayern's players are relatively relaxed in training, mainly to adjust their own state and suffer from jet lag.

In fact, the difference of three hours from Munich to the United Arab Emirates does not have a particularly large impact on Bayern.

The players insist on training now, sleep at night, and they will be able to play vigorously tomorrow.

But before the end of the training, I saw Nellinger, the newly appointed sports director of Bayern who was traveling with the team, walking into the training ground with a group of UAE people in white robes and white headscarves, talking and laughing.

The robe of the leader is obviously different from the others, it is dark brown, which is particularly conspicuous.

Su Dong looked from a distance and found that the man was Mansur, the boss behind Manchester City.

This is Abu Dhabi. Mansour is one of the most powerful people in the United Arab Emirates and the owner of Manchester City. It is not surprising that he appears here. It seems that he should have chatted with Nehringer for a while.

I don't know what they talked about?
……

Mansour mobilized many people to come to visit the class, so naturally he would not be aimless.

On behalf of the United Arab Emirates and Abu Dhabi, he first welcomed the arrival of the Bayern stars, and at the same time promised to provide all-round services for Bayern during the Club World Cup, and wished the Bayern players good results in Abu Dhabi.

Afterwards, he talked with Heynckes, Rahm, Sudong and other players in the team.

Robben has returned from injury, but whether he can play in the Club World Cup depends on the specific situation, but Ribery must be too late.

This made Mansour quite disappointed. Originally, he was looking forward to seeing the Bayern Trident give a wonderful performance to the fans in Abu Dhabi. However, he admired Sudong the most.

That night, Mansour was the host and invited everyone in Bayern to have dinner in the hotel where Bayern was staying.

The clubs are still responsible for the players' diets, after all, the diets of professional players still need to be controlled.

After dinner, Mansour invited Sudong to meet him as a fan.

The meeting place will be in the hotel's luxury suite, which is reserved for members of the Abu Dhabi royal family and distinguished guests.

What surprised Su Dong was that besides Mansur, Soriano and Begiristan were also there.

……

When old friends meet in a foreign country, it is inevitable to exchange pleasantries.

Mansur is very patient, always maintains a smile like a spring breeze, and does not feel left out in the slightest.

Both Soriano and Begiristan flew over from Manchester by private jet, and the purpose, needless to say, was for Su Dong.

In fact, everyone at Bayern knows it, even Nellinger himself, but Su Dong's contract is only half a year away. If he really wants to leave, no one can stop him.

"In recent rounds, the team's performance has improved, but it still ranks No.11 in the league. Guardiola is very dissatisfied with the team's performance. The team's current problems are very obvious. Attack, possession and defense are all very problematic."

Wenger built Arsenal, how many years did it take?How much effort did you put into it?

Guardiola has just started coaching and lacks experience. In addition, Manchester City's lineup does not particularly meet his requirements. As a result, he is also very depressed now, feeling that it is difficult to use his fists.

After listening to Su Dong, he nodded, "The offense of the two wings is okay, but the center lacks a threat. Santa Cruz is not dominant enough to support the opponent's central defender and defense, which has caused Manchester City's current play style to be very limited."

Good tactics also need to have the right players to execute them.

Guardiola's tactics are actually really good, especially the midfielder, the three midfielders composed of David Silva, Busquets and Gareth Barry, actually played very awkwardly, but still firmly controlled the ball.

This summer, Manchester City originally wanted to buy Modric, but Bayern attached great importance to the midfielder and did not intend to sell it.

This is not surprising. Modric is now the core of Bayern's midfield, and his role is more obvious than that of Schweinsteiger.

The defense was equally inconsistent, even with the goalkeeper.

Guardiola has mentioned more than once that he wants a better goalkeeper. Neither Shay nor Joe Hart is the type he likes, and they even deviate a lot. What he wants most is Valdez and Neuer.

But Bayern is not the one who is short of money. Is it possible to steal people from Bayern, especially Neuer?

Su Dong guessed that Mansur should have talked with Nehringer in the afternoon, but he didn't know the specific result of the talk.

Soriano and Begiristan could also hear some clues from Su Dong's few words.

It's not that Su Dong doesn't pay attention to Manchester City, but has been paying attention to Manchester City.

Here is the senior management he is familiar with, and the coaching of Guardiola, whom he admires. Mansour is also determined to sign up a lot to build a competitive team as soon as possible. More importantly, Manchester City is one of the very few teams that can afford Sudong's salary. The remaining two teams are estimated to be Manchester United and Real Madrid.

As for Chelsea, since the subprime mortgage crisis, Abramovich's wealth has shrunk sharply, and he cannot afford the huge cost of introducing Sudong.

The biggest obstacle restricting Su Dong from joining Manchester City is the results.

With Su Dong's strength and influence, Manchester City's competitiveness will definitely be greatly improved, but at the very least, Manchester City must show a sufficient level, such as entering the European theater.

You can't even get into the European theater, is it possible to let Su Dong drag a group of old and weak soldiers to fight in the league alone?

Soriano and Begiristan have also been communicating with Mendes and know Su Dong's thoughts, so they have been repeatedly emphasizing that Manchester City's goal this season is the European theater.

Judging from the current performance, it is very difficult to enter the Champions League, because the other giants in the Premier League are not fuel-efficient.

Manchester City's goal is to reach the Europa League.

"We are now in the semi-finals of the League Cup," Begiristain said.
