Schalke 04 quickly responded to Marcel Leif's joke with action. Zhou Tiancheng and Hevedus reversed the score with two set balls. In the end, Schalke 04 won by 2:1.

However, the post-match attitude of Magath made the reporters feel unconscionable. He said: "I think the players should deserve this victory, the players worked hard, and finally they defeated the bad luck on the road, I am very happy."

These words sound normal at first glance, but many experienced senior reporters at the scene are keenly aware of a problem: Stuttgart insisted on being reversed until the end today. Is it really luck?

I'm afraid it's also related to Kuranyi's numerous shots on the beam post. Although it can be attributed to poor luck, this is indeed a panacea. However, the top four efficient shooters in the shooter list last season did not score in three consecutive shots. The word "luck" is too pale and weak.

These reporters think of Magath's position, are they expressing their dissatisfaction with Kuranyi?

So the reporters consciously brought the topic to Kuranyi, but Magath's attitude was clear: "He has just recovered from the injury, and I have enough patience to wait for him."

In addition to this sentence, Magath seems to be unwilling to talk more, but various media hold a wait-and-see attitude. If Kuranyi really only needs a few **** to return to the peak of last season, then naturally there is no problem. But if you can't find the status, whether Magath is really patient, this is a topic of interest to various media. After all, Schalke’s top position is still not stable, even if Magath is really willing to wait, under the pressure of the situation. Everything has variables.

During the two days of training, Magath focused on observing Kuranyi's performance, and he was more pleased that Kuranyi's state in training was relatively stable.

Zhou Tiancheng, who was wearing the yellow vest with him in the main team, also felt that Kuranyi’s quasi-head was much higher than the previous game. During the training interval, he directly came to Kuranyi and asked: "To be honest, Kay Wen, did you deliberately do the last game?"

Kuranyi didn't understand what he was saying: "What was intentional?"

"Resemble!" Zhou Tiancheng smiled, "You forgot I can remember clearly, when training two days ago, did you still ask me, believe it or not, you dare to lose your chance... Kevin, I did not expect How dare you joke about the team’s winning or losing."

"Zhou, I don't like you saying that! Don't insult my professional ethics, it's just a joke." Kuranyi responded a little somberly.

Zhou Tiancheng could see that he was indeed a little angry, and put away the joke mentality, and asked him seriously: "Then you explain why your training shot shooting rate is so high, this is the next day, don't tell me that the state is restored so much fast."

Kuranyi bit her lip and admitted frankly: "Since you asked, then I will tell you the truth. When I was on the court, I thought that what I thought was not the same as what the body did."

Zhou Tiancheng didn't expect to hear this answer. As a very aggressive midfielder, he naturally knew what it meant: "That is, after the confrontation, your physical response adjustment can't keep up with consciousness?"

Kuran nodded. Immediately, Zhou Tiancheng frowned, and he immediately said, "Zhou, I know this is the reason why my body has not fully recovered. I won't worry about it. I will adjust it as soon as possible."

However, Kuranyi thinks the problem is too simple. It is easy for a shooter to burst a few games suddenly, and it is difficult to maintain a stable state at a high level. If you want to return to a high level, it will be more difficult.

And Magath trusts Kuranyi too much, which makes Schalke, who was just breathing in the top of the list, was pressed into the quagmire.

In the tenth round of the Bundesliga, Schalke was tied by Hamburg at home 3:3. The game scored a high score with three twists and turns. Schalke's three goals were completed by Rakitic, Zhou Tiancheng and Asamoah. Assisted Then they are Zhou Tiancheng, Farfan and Rafinha—no goal has anything to do with Kuranyi.

The results are not obvious enough, and the reporters who watched the game on the spot felt that they found direct evidence of criticizing Magath: Kuranyi only had a total of four shots and only one shot. As a striker-type striker who has undertaken most of the team's final missions, this statistic only shows that he is completely out of shape. Kuranyi scored 5.2 shots per game in the three games before his injury, and last season this figure was as high as 6.1.

And after the game, Magath still said that: "He just recovered from the injury, I have enough patience to wait for him."

So in the eleventh round of the league, Schalke, who continued to sit at home, was tied 2:2 by Leverkusen. Kuranyi still did not show a convincing performance.

At this time, it is difficult to block the mouth of the media, especially the media that supports Schalke, and the team has dropped to second place. The severe defending situation makes them less patient.

The Gelsenkirchen Mining News bears the brunt of the doubters. The view is very sharp: "If Schalke can sit in the league's top position as last season, we are willing to wait for Kuranyi to return like Magath. But now the situation is not waiting for others. The next round will also have a guest scene against Bayern Munich. If you can’t win the top game, the consequences will be unimaginable. Magath can’t hesitate anymore~ The minimum task is to defend the league champion, and it is possible to withdraw Kuranyi in time. Schalke has not only depended on training clubs for players to live. Since the goal is the goal, there is nothing to hesitate. We only need a strong team, Eleven of the best. Van Gaal can put Mario Gomez on the bench, and Magath does not lack this kind of courage."

"Mining News"'s view is very clear, the soldiers running in the iron camp, without Kuranyi, does not affect Schalke's victory at all.

And like other well-known national media, such as Okun Haus, the editor of the sports edition of Germany’s largest newspaper “Photo”, the view is similar, although the wording is not as fierce as the local media: “Kurani suffered three rounds after his comeback The goal shortage, we believe that Magath must not have forced him to play, his body must have recovered to the extent that he can cope with the game, then the performance of not scoring three consecutive games can only show that he is getting farther and farther from everyone's expectations , The next game against Bayern may be his last chance. If you can’t complete self-salvation, I believe Magath dare not waste too much time on him..."

After the tenth round of the league, the championship situation in the standings, the first round of the top round and the status of Schalke's leading shooter Kevin Kuranyi became the focus of the Bundesliga. The cover of the latest issue of "Kicker" magazine expressed an interesting point: Kevin Kuranyi was in a labyrinth dead end surrounded by goals, surrounded by football flying towards him, but he stood on the spot , His eyes were at a loss.

And the title of this issue of the magazine is also very eye-catching: the truth! The champion shooter has been lost.
