The European football circle used to have a term of "slam", referring to the team having won the championship in the three European Cups, which is the Grand Slam team.

The Champions Cup, the Winners' Cup and the UEFA Cup have led European football for 40 years, including 28 years at the same time. During this period, the three major cups have always been the targets of all teams.

During these 40 years, there have always been some teams that have been at the top of the football food chain, and people call them ‘greatmen’. It stands to reason that these giants should not lack the three big cups in such a long time. However, no.

"Yubai"! That's all. Juventus, Ajax and Bayern Munich are the only three Grand Slam teams to date. Of course, it is controversial whether Barcelona is a slam. Barcelona has a Champions League and four UEFA Champions Leagues, but it has never won the UEFA Cup.

Barcelona refused to accept this because they had three'Expo Cups' in their hands. The fair regarded the Expo Cup as the predecessor of the UEFA Cup, and the two events happened to be a lifetime in 1971. However, UEFA does not recognize the Expo Cup, because this is a ‘private event’, similar in nature to the previous Toyota Cup, and not officially hosted by UEFA.

In any case, there are only three or four Grand Slam teams. With the European Cup Winners Cup in 1999, Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Liverpool, Porto, Benfica and other giants are no longer full. A consistent opportunity because what they lack is the winners’ cup.

AC Milan is not a grand slam, the Red and Black Legion ‘only’ has seven Champions League big ear cups and two winners cups. However, they still have a chance to slam, because Milan alone lacks a UEFA Cup.

From the World Club Cup (Toyota Cup) to a variety of Super Cups, from domestic to Europe to international, AC Milan has almost all the club's glorious honors, indulging in the flowers and lying down, but unfortunately failed to kiss the league Cup of Fang Ze.

In the 36 years since the establishment of the 1971 UEFA Cup, AC Milan have competed in the Champions League for 19 seasons, participated in the Winners' Cup three times, and watched for 10 seasons. There have been 4 times in the UEFA Cup, but not to mention the four appearances, AC Milan has not even reached the finals, the best result is only the quarterfinals of the 01-02 season.

4 times failed to win the championship, in fact, it is quite normal in the tournament of the whole knockout, and in the history of the coexistence of the three big cups, the UEFA Cup itself has the lowest influence among them. This is an event where the losers talk about comfort after all. The traditional giants take this opportunity to recuperate or upgrade. For AC Milan, there is no difference between the UEFA Cup runner-up and the 32nd place, so it was difficult for them to attach importance to this game from a strategic perspective.

This season is AC Milan’s fifth competition for the UEFA Cup. Although the UEFA Champions League restructuring and the winner’s cup have ended, this UEFA Cup is no longer the other UEFA Cup, which is roughly equivalent to the weakened version of the old UEFA Cup + the Winners’ Cup. The people still regard the new UEFA Cup as a continuation of the old UEFA Cup.

Originally this season, AC Milan was only planning to walk through the UEFA Cup, where to play, the focus of competition is only the league, the importance of the UEFA Cup after the World Club Cup and the European Super Cup, it is slightly stronger than the FA Cup . But now the schedule is more than half, and the competitive situation on several fronts has given the club's top management new ideas.

The World Club Cup and Super Cup have been successful, but the most wanted league against Inter Milan is disappointing. In 23 rounds, AC Milan ranked fifth with 11 wins and 12 draws and 45 points, while Inter Milan, which also remained undefeated, had 17 wins and 6 draws and 57 points, almost making it impossible to see their taillights.

Football is not lacking in miracles, but now it is a bit self-deceiving to compete with Inter Milan for the Serie A championship this season, first ask Rome, Juventus and Florence in the first two or three places to say yes.

If you want to stand tall as much as possible in the violent winds of your neighbors, a dream of a “slam” is undoubtedly the best and only choice, because Inter Milan has no chance of slam in this life, if AC Milan succeeds for the rest of its life You can take it out at any time to run against rivals in the same city.

And after the situation analysis, AC Milan found that this year's UEFA Cup is relatively ideal. In the round of 16, Italy and West have only one left, Germany and Britain have three seats, and the remaining eight teams are all in total. There are no big giants in the 16 who can match the status of Milan. There are only three or two such as May, Leverkusen and Tottenham.

Since the restructuring and expansion of the Champions League, the UEFA Cup has gradually declined, and it has gradually become a stage for dark horses and second-line teams to become famous, such as Madaba and Seville. The last time the traditional G14 giants' Zema League Cup was Liverpool in the 00-01 season, the Reds defeated Aston Villa in a 5:4 golden ball in a Premier League civil war.

Since Dortmund won the runner-up next season, there will be no more traditional and powerful figure in the UEFA Cup finals. This year is particularly bleak. From the top 32, AC Milan is the only prominent figure in the UEFA Cup.

The competitive situation allows, the temptation is enough, there is no super opponent in the future, and it is a matter of course for AC Milan to change the season's goals.

The second day after defeating Rosenberg, AC Milan officially announced this decision internally: this season's competitive goal is to win the championship for the UEFA Cup ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Serie A to fight for four.

The two guarantees in the league are naturally for the undeniable qualification of the Champions League next season, the difference is only whether they need to start from the qualifiers. For clubs such as AC Milan, the absence of the rich-earning Champions League for two consecutive years will bring great inconvenience to the operation, not only the direct dividend from UEFA, the amount of sponsorship sponsorship, various commercial activities The development will be greatly affected, and the star recruitment will also be rejected by the other party. If it is not done properly, it will form a vicious circle.

So the club changed its season goal this time, it became a matter of great joy for the players. There is no need to spit blood and tear their hearts to chase Inter Milan. There is no special stubble in the UEFA Cup. At this stage, this will undoubtedly make it easier for everyone.

For Zhuo Yang, he already has two UEFA Cup champions, and he has surpassed AC Milan and many rich teams. Therefore, whether he can win the championship is actually not very attractive to him, but he is still very interested in the best shooter.

In the Serie A league, Zhuo Yang, who has upgraded his shooting boots, has scored 27 goals. This number is enough for the best shooter in ordinary years. In this way, Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic, Mutu and other people had a very early thought, and Totti had only 7 goals. The suspense of Serie A this season is not whether Zhuo Yang can win the best scorer, but whether he can break the Serie A goal record in a single season.

In the UEFA Cup, Zhuo Yang also topped the list with 9 goals. If he walks forward, it will be stable. Although it is not realistic to break his 27-ball record set in the 04-05 season, it is Zhuo Yang and Your own competition has nothing to do with others.

The best shooter, this is the correct posture of striker Zhuo Yang.
