As long as we start watching football in the 1990s or even around 2000, we all know that this is the reality.
Zhang Lu is undoubtedly a Serie A fan. I don't know which club fans it is, but there is absolutely no doubt that he likes Serie A. Zhang Lu prefers the Bundesliga to La Liga and Premier League. Because Zhang Lu himself is the most professional person in the football industry, others learn football professionally. From football technology to tactics to industry.
What are the biggest advantages of Serie A and Bundesliga in the football industry? It's tactics.
Even though Serie A is going downhill now, there are many good coaches, from Sacchi and Capello to Ancelotti and then to allegri.
How do you think the original title of Serie A came from? It is not that there are many stars, but that there are many good coaches and the economic situation is good. It has led to the popularity of the league, and there has been a situation in which stars gather together to go to Serie A, but football is constantly developing. The tactical level of Serie A in the 1990s is not comparable to that of the Premier League today. Today, Italy's economic situation is even worse than that of Britain. So today's first league is the Premier League.
What's more, the Premier League has experienced a series of excellent coaches, from Magic Bird to Ancelotti, from Kong Di to emeri to Surrey and Benitez, and now to Guardiola and klopp. No matter from the technical characteristics of the players or the tactical thinking of the team, it is no longer the "rough English" of that year.
But the Premier League in those days was really "rough English" and was not wronged at all. Many players who can't get in Serie A will run wild in the Premier League, killing in all directions, from Zola to Di Canio, and then to dimatteo. Which one in the Premier League is not popular?
On the other hand, players from the Premier League are not used to most parts of continental Europe. When the Premier League beat Robbie Keane, what level did they reach in Serie A? Inter Milan can't even play, so back in the Premier League, they are still bullying Leeds United.
The level of Serie A was indeed high, but the high level of that year does not mean that it is high now. Italian football was hit by the telephone door in 2006, and the brain drain caused by the rapid domestic economic recession entered a channel of continuous decline. It can't be said to rebound yet.
However, after Manchester United won the Champions League in 1999, the Premier League continued to improve. Not only the entry of high-level players, but also the constant support of high-level coaches, coupled with Ferguson and Wenger, who were at the quasi-first-class level in the world at that time, after more than 20 years of continuous transformation, the Premier League is now the best league in the world.
At the same time, even if Serie A declines, the overall level of the league will not collapse at once, and this decline mainly affects the overall level of players, not the tactical level of the team. When other European league teams face Serie A teams, they gradually analyze and learn the tactical ideas of Serie A, take the essence and discard the dross, and their tactical level has also been greatly improved.
The Premier League is the league that has benefited the most from this process. The current Premier League is indeed much better than Serie A in the 1990s. Not only is it better than Serie A in the 1990s, but it is also better than Serie A now.
