The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1202
1202 Mr. Roja’s Comeback Is Imminent
Yes, the 2009-2010 Champions League group draw is coming.
Before leaving, Albertini went to see Zhong Cheng. He wanted to see if Zhong Cheng had recovered and if he could personally go to Nyon, Switzerland.
Obviously, Albertini was blocked without even seeing Zhong Cheng.
Christina and the others did not allow Albertini to see Zhong Cheng and affect his cultivation. They left the club to Albertini and Tolliver Burch.
However, Christina and the others replied to Albertini, saying that Zhong Cheng had recovered quite well and would recover in a while.
Albertini didn’t know what to say!
How much longer is it?
Now, Albertini felt a lot of pressure, and he couldn’t take it anymore.
Only now did Albertini realize how much pressure he had to bear when he was truly the head coach of a team? This was simply not something an ordinary person could do. This was truly frightening.
Now, Albertini admired Zhong Cheng even more.
Albertini had never felt that there was too much pressure on Zhong Cheng. He thought that it would be easier to follow Zhong Cheng.
From the looks of it, Zhong Cheng was carrying everything on his own without affecting the people around him. He was truly too powerful. Albertini was unable to do so and the pressure on the other Leeds United coaches is very high.
Albertini knew very well the difference between him and Zhong Cheng.
Albertini felt that he should continue to study beside Zhong Cheng. He still had a lot to learn.
Sure enough, Zhong Cheng was not an ordinary person!
Now think about the honors that Zhong Cheng had won when he led the team, and you will know just how powerful Zhong Cheng is!
It had only been less than a month since Albertini had truly led the team, but now he felt pressure from all sides, pointing fingers from all sides. These things made him feel very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
In the past, Zhong Cheng had always placed all kinds of pressure on him, as well as the pointing fingers around him. Now, he imagined that Zhong Chengzhen was too powerful.
Albertini learned a lot from this.
Albertini knew that he had a long way to go!
Of course, Albertini was more calm and composed. The pressure was there, whether it was increasing or decreasing. Then why would he care so much?
At this time, he should face it calmly and do what he should do!
As for the others, he couldn’t care less about them!
However, it was still very difficult for Albertini to really do what he wanted.
Of course, now was not the time to deal with these matters. At this time, Albertini, Tolliver Burch and the others flew to UEFA headquarters to draw lots for this season’s Champions League group.
This time, there were a lot of people, a lot of staff, and a lot of players.
Leeds United goalkeeper Zhong Zheng, centre-back Kompani, and midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo all followed because they were nominated for the award.
The Champions League’s best squad for last season has been announced as follows:
Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng
Fourth Guards “Left to Right”: Patrick Aver, Compani, John Terry and Gary Neville
Four midfielders “left to right”: Franck Ribery, Iniesta, Luka Modric and Cristiano Ronaldo
Double strikers: Leo Messi and Drogba
Yes, that was the best squad in the Champions League last season, and there was also the second best squad. At the same time, in the goalkeeper’s position also has substitutes Van der Sar, Peter Cech and Valdes and so on.
These are all to the scene, because who doesn’t know who will win the Best Player award in all positions.
To be honest, the biggest winner of last season’s Champions League was Leeds United.
From the best lineup, it could be seen that Leeds United had five players on the list. This was already very impressive. And the Leeds United players are very likely to win the prize.
So, this time, the players from Leeds United went to the scene and prepared to receive the prize.
Leeds United were very strong last season, winning the Champions League, which was beyond many people’s expectations. Leeds United will be the defending champions this season, but many are not optimistic about them now.
Because Leeds United have had too many problems this season.
First of all, many of the main players of the Leeds United Club had left. For example, the main striker of the team, Diego Milito, the main midfielder, Luka Modric, and the others had all left. There were also the main winger, Glen Johnson, and the others. Leeds United were simply doomed.
Now, along with the core of the Leeds United team, the chairman of the team and head coach Zhong Cheng was injured. It had been a month since he appeared in public, and there had even been no news of Zhong Cheng this month. Many people had speculated that Zhong Cheng’s injury was too serious, and that there was basically no way he would be able to make a comeback this season.
So they think Leeds United are the weakest team to understand the Champions League title defending champions.
These people naturally did not think that Leeds United could defend the Champions League. They even joked that Leeds United were the fastest-losing club in the history of the Champions League and they had no hope of defending the title.
Yes, that’s what the media say now!
The outside world had all reported this, and they all looked at the Leeds United team, believing that the Leeds United team had not made much of a difference this season.
Of course, they also believe that last season’s Leeds United played very well, many awards should still belong to the Leeds United team.
When Albertini arrived at the scene, there were naturally many acquaintances who came to greet him.
To be honest, this shocked the reporters on the scene, because Albertini’s popularity seemed to be much better than Zhong Cheng’s. Many coaches came to greet Albertini personally, not only from the Premier League, but also from the Italian League and even the Spanish League.
Albertini’s popularity was really, really good. This was something Zhong Cheng did not have.
Of course, at this time, more people still asked Albertini about Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng was the absolute core of Leeds United. They knew that Leeds United’s strength was very strong. Of course, the premise was that Zhong Cheng would come back. If Zhong Cheng did not come back, the Leeds United would have no teeth, so there was no need to be afraid.
Albertini naturally claimed that Zhong Cheng would be back as soon as possible. He had already recovered from his injuries very quickly.
Of course, these people naturally didn’t believe it.
Yes, these people think Albertini is cheating them. If Zhong Cheng was really about to recover from his injuries, why hadn’t he heard from him for so long?
Zhong Cheng must be seriously ill, otherwise, how could such a situation occur? Albertini was indeed not being honest!
After arriving in Nyon, Switzerland, Albertini was surrounded by media reporters.
Albertini said to reporters: “For this Champions League, we think it’s good to be in any group. We’re defending champions now and we’re going to meet a very strong team sooner or later. Let’s see if we can get lucky. Whoever gets the Champions League will be the one!”
Many media outlets curled their lips. Aren’t you talking nonsense?
Whoever wasn’t assigned this was who? Could it be that you can replace Barcelona with Barcelona? Albertini’s words were very interesting!
Kelly Fox almost laughed!
In Carey Fox’s view, Albertini should be nervous now. This is his first time leading a team to the Champions League. Most importantly, he was not the head coach of the team, but the acting head coach. He was the temporary replacement. After Zhong Cheng returned, he had to give up the command.
It was precisely because he wasn’t in charge that he was worried about Zhong Cheng. When Zhong Cheng returned, what he gave him was a mess.
If he was really the head coach of Leeds United, he wouldn’t be as nervous as he is now.
Kelly Fox looked at Albertini in front of her, who was completely different from usual. This guy seemed to be really nervous.
Albertini continued: “We at Leeds United are very strong and we are not afraid of anyone.” “Of course, we still hope to get some teams that are easy to deal with, because it’s not just a matter of fear, because we still have league matches, the Carling Cup and so on. There have been a lot of matches during this period and the schedule is complicated, so it’s naturally better to be able to relax a little bit!”
Many media reporters naturally despised Albertini in their hearts. Wasn’t this guy very tough in front of them? Why was he so cowardly? He really didn’t have the demeanor of a master!
The reporters naturally asked about Zhong Cheng’s situation, and Albertini answered seriously.
Albertini said: “Our boss is doing very well and is recovering very well. Before we left for Switzerland, I went to see him. He is in good spirits and will be back soon. You don’t have to worry about that.”
Hearing this, many people already asked: “Then why didn’t Mr. Loria come to the UEFA Champions League group draw? Does he look down on UEFA?”
Albertini’s expression immediately dropped. Do you know how to chat with this damn trash? If you don’t know how to chat, don’t talk.
Albertini immediately said: “Our boss naturally needs to rest and recover peacefully. Seeing that he is going to recover, he naturally doesn’t want to have any problems at this time and let his injuries relapse. Our boss is going to let him recover after he recovers.”
The media reporters were naturally unwilling to believe Albertini’s words. They were always suspicious in their hearts, as if everyone was an expert liar. Whoever said anything, they had to think about it and study it before making their own subjective assumptions.
Yes, that’s right!
Albertini then left and entered the venue for the 2009-2010 Champions League group draw.
This is very important for Leeds United and Albertini naturally attaches great importance to it. This time he wanted the team to have a relatively easy group, so they would have more energy to deal with other games.
