Restricted Superstar

Although Porto is a frequent visitor to the top 16 of the Champions League, this time their opponents are Fenerbahce and Dynamo Kyiv, who were the last eight in the Champions League last season, and they left Bosingwa, Quaresma and Anderson. The absolute main force, Arsenal is the undoubted favorite in Group G, while Fenerbahce is the second favorite, and Porto is only ranked third. EΩ┡small said WwnW. 1XIAOSHUO. com

Porto's ability to qualify from the group and qualify one round ahead of schedule is absolutely unexpected.

After the game, major European media strongly praised Porto's excellent performance. Spain's Aspen and several other media also regarded Porto as a dark horse in the UEFA Champions League this season, believing that they have the hope of breaking into the quarter-finals.

Entering the top 16 means that Porto is very likely to become an opponent of the giants. Therefore, many media have analyzed Porto's outstanding performance. Hulk's performances are inseparable, especially Portuguese newcomer Wang Gao Xiaodong, who has excellent performances in both the front midfielder and the back midfielder, and is one of the biggest contributors to Porto's qualifying.

Glenn Moore, a senior football reporter of England's Independent, believes that Gao Xiaodong's football skills have made a significant improvement in half a season since the transfer in the summer, and his passing, dribbling and breakthrough are all improved , if it continues at this rate, I am afraid that both Manchester United and Arsenal will regret that they did not have 27 million euros to win Gao Xiaodong during the summer transfer period.

In this regard, neither Sir Alex Ferguson nor Professor Wenger responded. Obviously, the two great coaches believe that this improvement is not enough to make them regret.

It is a happy event for Porto to qualify for the UEFA Champions League group. At least they have a few million more euros in income, and nothing else. After all, they only won the UEFA Champions League in 2004. In the next few seasons, they entered the round of 16 three times. , Only one time was eliminated. For Porto, before 16 can only be regarded as a passing line, and the top eight can be considered excellent.

After being honed in the Champions League, Porto's young players have grown rapidly. Like Fernando, who performed so well last season, returning to the league not only has a solid defense, but even has a good offensive performance.

Hulk, for example, could only play in Japan's J-League. He also played as a substitute in Portugal at the beginning, but after four Champions League games, he is now able to play in the league with ease.

Even if the stupid Gualin, in the Champions League, he can't attack well or defend well, but when he comes back to the Portuguese League, he can attack and defend well.

Veterans such as Alves, Fucilet, and Melles are stable as usual, and rookies such as Gao Xiaodong and Hulk are making progress. Porto is making great strides in the league and the Portuguese Cup. It has won 11 consecutive victories in the league and the Portuguese Cup. Quarterfinals.

Porto is in such a good state, the Portuguese media and Porto fans are fantasizing about beating Arsenal at home to win the group first.

In fact, for Porto, if they want to reach the quarter-finals, getting the first place in the group is a shortcut. If they get the second place in the group, it means that they have to meet Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Liverpool and other giants. If the group is first, it is possible to pick a soft persimmon and squeeze it.

However, it is difficult to have smooth sailing in the world. When Porto was preparing to face Arsenal with high morale and confidence, captain Lu Qiao fired a cannon.

My injury has healed. After I came back, I was fine after the 9th round of the league. I don't know why I didn't even have the chance to come off the bench. As the captain of the team, no one gave me any explanation. I feel that I Not getting the respect that I deserve, and after two titles here, maybe it's time for me to switch places.

Lu Qiao said so.

The thing is like this, Lu Qiao sprained his ankle in the Champions League game against Fenerbahce, and he has not been included in the squad since he came back. The head coach Ferreira said that Lu Qiao is recovering from his injury.

Now that Lucho said that his injury has been healed, it means that the head coach Ferreira is lying to the media and the fans. He is using this as an excuse not to let Lucho play. Why doesn't Ferreira let Lujo play? Joe playing? Surely there must be a contradiction? What is the contradiction?

Reminiscent of the time when Lu Qiao was replaced by wrestling shoes, and then reminiscent of the change of Lu Qiao's position and Gao Xiaodong's superiority, Porto's internal conflicts are ready to emerge.

Porto won the 11th league, and the league has a great momentum. Porto's old rivals Benfica and Sporting Lisbon have been jealous for a long time. When they saw Lucho come out to bombard Ferreira, they all jumped out and fanned the flames.

Benfica coach Flores said that he would not let the captain play the game with the lie of the injury. He could not do this kind of behavior. If there is a tactical reason, he will explain it to the players.

Philippe, chairman of Sporting Lisbon, said that Lucho won two championships for Porto and reached the top 16 of the Champions League. It is really chilling for Porto to treat heroes in this way.

Philip also generously stated that if Lucho is willing to transfer to Sporting Lisbon, Sporting Lisbon will welcome him with both hands.

Later, the anti-Porto media also uncovered the gang struggle in Porto, condemning the Porto club Bo En for being ungrateful, criticizing Ferreira for supporting Gao Xiaodong to please the chairman Da Costa, and his behavior was too shameless.

Lucho's bombardment of Ferreira before choosing to play against Arsenal was a bit sudden, but Porto's management and Ferreira had long been prepared. Facing the verbal criticism from reporters, Ferreira held a press conference to explain.

Ferreira told reporters that although Lu Qiao's injury has healed, but the league opponents are not strong, he hoped that Lu Qiao healed his injury completely, instead of rushing to the field, he did not expect that it caused Lu Qiao's misunderstanding, and he said that he would fight with him. Lu Qiao communicated well.

Ferreira communicated with Lu Qiao, but instead of restoring Lu Qiao's main position, he told Lu Qiao that if he stays, he will rotate the front midfielder with Gao Xiaodong in the following games.

Obviously such words can only deceive ghosts, Lu Qiao will not believe that he and Gao Xiaodong will rotate, it is very likely that he will play some garbage games by himself, and let Gao Xiaodong play important and showy games.

Therefore, Lu Qiao also decisively stated that he wanted to transfer to Marseille during the winter break, and hoped that Porto would not set up obstacles.

After the chairman of Porto knew about it, he personally promised Lucho that he would not set up any obstacles in Lucho's transfer to Marseille, as long as Marseille's offer was not too outrageous and within Lucho's value range, he could agree.

With the chairman's promise, Lu Qiao felt more at ease. In his previous contact with Marseille, what Marseille was most worried about was Porto asking for prices. I hope to spend less money to take Lu Qiao away, even if the salary is higher.

Lucho played for Porto for three years and won two league championships. Naturally, he also hoped to leave a little bit of incense, so he also explained to the reporter, saying that he and coach Ferreira had a misunderstanding, and now the misunderstanding Speaking of which, he will work with his teammates to prepare for the Champions League group match with Arsenal, and strive to defeat the Gunners and get the first place in the group.
