When a fan evaluates a team as a nouveau riche with a sneering tone, it is basically certain that the underlying color of this evaluation is sour. It’s like money is only available for top giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Liverpool and Bayern, while Manchester City, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain is not worthy of it at all.

Isn't this just naked jealousy? After a series of multi-faceted assessments that ordinary people would never think of and dare not think of, the financial owner identified the target of their money. Maybe many people think this way - why, isn't I spending money on my team?

foundation is definitely a concept with the attributes of time flow. Perhaps, only a team with more than a hundred years of history and full of honors is worthy of being a wealthy family and is worthy of being a wealthy family; well, in another hundred years, when you are not in the world, people can naturally call Manchester City and Chelsea a wealthy family with a wealthy family. After all, at that time, these two teams might have had several big-eared cups. If not, at least, there is one, right? 2012, 2023, right? I haven't said 2021 yet.

By the way, Paris Grand is not mentioned.

Now that Paris Saint Gran is a wealthy family, there must be someone who looks disdainful. Indeed, Paris Saint-Germain suffered two losses compared to Chelsea and Manchester City. First, their team-building time was too late, and it has only been more than 50 years. Second, they have not won the Champions League yet.

This season, Paris Saint-Germain has reached the Champions League final, which is their best opportunity. Don’t people always call Chelsea, Manchester City, and Paris Saint-Germain the nouveau riche? Since they are all nouveau riche, there must be similarities in terms of the process of making a fortune, the trends over the years, and the experience of the Champions League. Since being hit by the financial backer, these three teams have gone from having few experiences in the Champions League to regular visitors, and have reached the semi-finals many times.

This is nothing. If you find that Manchester City and Chelsea have any common experience in the Champions League after they become successful, you may feel that this time, Paris Saint-Germain won the championship is really a chance.

In fact, Chelsea has experienced no little about the criticism and doubts that Paris Saint-Germain has suffered in recent years. During Mourinho's period, Chelsea reached the semi-finals at most and was defeated in the semi-finals. At that time, the foundation was used by countless people as a tool to humiliate Chelsea.

However, from 2007 to 2008, Grant, who had a weak coaching ability, brought Chelsea to the Champions League final for the first time. Although I lost, this is the first time after all. Moreover, four years later, from the 11 to 12 seasons, Chelsea made the finals for the second time, and his merit was fulfilled - he won the Champions League for the first time in team history.

Step into the final for the first time, lose; reach the final for the second time, succeed - perhaps this is the route of the nouveau riche team to win the Champions League?

Let's see if Manchester City is like this. From the 20th to 21st season, Manchester City reached the Champions League final for the first time in history and was taught by Chelsea. It doesn't matter, from the 22 to 23 seasons, Manchester City reached the final for the second time and succeeded.

Chelsea and Manchester City, as the first two super nouveau riche since the 21st century, have been in the same pace in winning the Champions League championship.

Now, it's Paris Saint-Germain. In the 19-20 season, Paris Saint-Germain reached the Champions League final for the first time in history, losing to Bayern. This season, Paris Saint-Germain reached the Champions League final for the second time. Is it time for their turn?

I think it's time.
