Golden Greenery

Since the Qatari consortium took over, Paris Saint-Germain has started a dynasty mode in Ligue 1, continuously "spending money", making Paris stronger and stronger, and acting as a bully against other opponents in Ligue 1.

Basically every season, ranking first from the beginning until winning the championship early at the end is just a matter of 10 points or 20 points ahead of the second place. Last season, PSG finished 31 points ahead of second-placed Lyon.

Paris Saint-Germain alone is the French Super League.

However, perhaps because of the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who represented the first phase of Paris, the world of Ligue 1 is in complete chaos this season. After 25 rounds, Paris has not yet sat at the top of the list. The number one position has been taken by other teams in turn, but there is nothing wrong with Paris.

Starting from the 20th round, the number one ranking is Monaco.

As third in Ligue 1 last season, Monaco, like Manchester City, fourth in the Premier League, entered the Champions League through the play-offs this season. Compared to Manchester City's opponent Steaua Bucharest, Monaco squeezed out the more powerful Villarreal in the play-offs.

In the group stage, Monaco's Group E is called this year's 'Group of Death'. Tottenham, Bayer Leverkusen, and CSKA Moscow are all on paper close to each other. After some fighting, Monaco qualified first in the group and Tottenham went to the UEFA Cup.

Manchester City is only second in the group, so it is Blue Moon who is challenging Monaco.

There are three generations of old, middle and young people in Portuguese football, with ‘Black Panther’ Eusebio, Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo being the leading figures respectively. In fact, there are also three generations of Portuguese coaches, old, middle and young.

The most famous Mourinho is naturally a representative of the Mesozoic era, and the old coach is led by European Championship winning coach Fernando Santos. The representative of the new generation is no longer Villas-Boas, who has gone to the Chinese Super League to make a living, but Monaco head coach Leonardo Jardim.

Jardim is one round younger than Mourinho. He has never played professional football. After completing the coaching course, in addition to coaching the youth team, women's football team, and even the handball team, he has taken a very wild path.

Fans may not pay much attention to the coach, but the professional football circle has long been very optimistic about Jardim. The promotion of the then unknown Belmara to the Portuguese Super League attracted considerable attention in the industry.

It is said that Professor Wenger really hopes that Jardim will come to Arsenal to take over his class, and it was Wenger who recommended Jardim to Monaco after the change of ownership.

The royal family gave up and the Monaco club's equity changed hands, but compared to the new owner, Russian tycoon Rybolovlev, coach Jardim is the one who truly leads Monaco's re-emergence.

After buying the team, Rybolovlev encountered a divorce dispute with his wife. Lao Maozi is a fighting nation, and Russian tough women are all tough men. After the lawsuit, Yelena took away more than 4 billion euros from Rybolovlev. This number sets a record for property division in divorce cases around the world.

The boss has survived this ordeal, but the expected trench purchase will never happen again.

Based on the team's original structure, Jardim tapped the potential and promoted young players from the youth training, and then used a small amount of money to buy some highly malleable potential stocks. Instead of letting Monaco sink in the turmoil, it actually rose steadily and became a can challenge the existence of Paris.

After Valentine's Day in 2017, Monaco came to the Manchester City Stadium. Compared with the slightly old-fashioned Manchester City, they were clearly a vibrant new force. Their temperament is very similar to Madibao twelve years ago.

.

"Tiger, welcome to Manchester." Zhuo Yang hugged 'Tiger' Radamel Falcao tightly.

Falcao patted Zhuoyang on the back hard and said with emotion: "Old Zhuo, this welcome should have happened three years ago, alas~"

"Tiger, look forward. Now that I'm back, you're dominating Ligue 1 again. Isn't that great?"

"Hahaha~~, yes, hahaha..."

Colombian tiger Falcao is only one year younger than Zhuo Yang.

He became famous in the Ajia River Plate and became prominent in Porto in the Portuguese Super League. Two appearances at Atletico Madrid have placed him among the world's top forwards.

Atletico Madrid's center forward is passed down from generation to generation, followed by Torres, Diego Forlan, and then Falcao. After Tiger, there is Aguero, then there is the beautiful Costa, and now there is Griezmann, and everyone is in perfect harmony.

Falcao's friendship with Zhuo Yang began in 2014. He was the first hero to respond to Zhuo Yang's "Hero Order" for the Brazil World Cup, in addition to Ronaldo, Mei boss, Scar and Neymar. It's a pity that a serious knee injury caused him to miss the trip to Brazil, and the 'Hero Order' was also lent to Ronaldo.

After the World Cup, it was Zhuoyang who "fooled" Tiger. He spent an extremely depressing season at Manchester United. In the summer of 2015, the four big losers dispersed, and Falcao also went to Chelsea, still on loan.

But Falcao suffered another injury at the Blue Bridge and was sidelined for more than four months throughout the season, with no serious games played at all. Last summer, Tiger returned to Monaco honestly and put on the captain's armband after returning with his old qualifications.

Falcao certainly did not blame Zhuoyang for those two years of unsuccessful Premier League travel, but he also saw clearly that England was by no means a good place for him, and he was still more suitable for southern European football with a strong Latin flavor.

Ibrahimovic, who has dominated Ligue 1 for five years, defected to Manchester United, finally allowing the shooters here to show their strong vitality this season. Monaco Falcao, Paris Cavani, Lyon Lacazette, Marseille veteran Gomi, and Nice Balotelli, five people are fighting for the top scorer list.

Manchester City has been a team for 137 years, and Monaco has a history of more than a century. However, today's game is the first time in the history of the two century-old brands that they have played against each other. They have not even played a friendly match before.

The main reason for this is Manchester City. Who told us that we were not in shape before? Monaco has always been a powerhouse in Ligue 1.

Blue Moon has met French Ligue 1 teams three times in its European history, three times with Paris Saint-Germain, and both times last season. Another time in the European battlefield, I have already had one encounter with a Premier League team, with 8 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses. Common achievements.

As long as they meet the Premier League in the knockout rounds, Monaco will definitely win. They have eliminated Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal in the first three times. In this season's Champions League group stage, Monaco double defeated Tottenham.

In the Premier League this season, Manchester City lost one and drew one against Tottenham.

Of course, Guardiola was embarrassed today, not because he was afraid of Monaco, but because he was still angry that his team failed to win the English Championship team Huddersfield in the FA Cup three days ago.

Manchester City's semi-main lineup, led by Aguero, had no success in the hard-fought battle against Germany, and it didn't even have much of an advantage on the field. A feeble 0:0, and the two sides had to choose a rematch date.

How about you just be a little bit more cowardly and just lose? I don't worry about it anymore.

Bravo made two great saves in that game. Isn't he a regent?

The schedule was already too busy to open up, and now we had to make up some gaps, so those five guys had a wasted rest.

Including Zhuo Yang, the five guys who were rested three days ago all started today.

The Spanish referee Laos blew the whistle, and what was later known as the "tennis match" began.
