v2 Chapter 152: About winter signing
In the second half, Schalke had a good start. Zhou Tiancheng used this goal to inject everyone with a shot of stimulant. I said that to win the championship was not a whim, and now we have a chance to win!
The most important thing is to make everyone motivated. Magat replaced Rakitic at the beginning of the second half, the score returned to a draw, and the midfielder was retuned to the strongest combination. Schalke’s hope of reversal seems to be taking a step. Step increase.
Ancelotti leaned on the railing of the visiting team's coach seat. After thinking for a moment, he made a counterpoint adjustment on the wing. Wright Phillips played and replaced Malouda, who did not contribute much on the offensive end today.
Sean Wright Phillips is only one meter six or eight in height. Small players usually have excellent dribbling skills, but he does not. His biggest advantage is speed. As one of the fastest players in the Premier League, he is completely the top demon configuration in the live and FM series games-although in the real world there are Premier League experts who once said harshly that if there is no speed, He will do nothing. Otherwise, with the background of his Manchester City youth training and the amazing strength of his early debut, he will not only be mixed up in Chelsea.
However, under the current circumstances, he played against the old arm and old leg of Bolton on the left side of Schalke 04, which is still quite threatening. At least when Wright Jr. started overtaking, Bolton had no good way except to pull people from behind.
However, such a defense can only be used once. The referee Busaka today has a very strict action penalty. The first time Bolton has been warned by a yellow card, he dare not easily reach out.
"Marcelo Bordon, it is hard to imagine that he will become the most unstable colander on the Schalke line."
Magath used the second substitution in the left-back position in time, Pandel replaced Bordon, the young guy at the age of 26, coupled with the frequent defense of Matip in place, over After ten minutes, I finally put down Wright Phillips' shock.
Today, Matip is a big gain in a major rotation. Previously, due to the stability of Hevedes and Westman, he did not get many opportunities to play, but today he showed the audience for the first time that his newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. He has the original African blood in his bones. The madness is most vividly displayed in today's game. His attack and shovel ignited the cheers to Schalke Stadium again and again, and the audience in the stands who heard about him began to spread his name.
After equalizing the score, he withstood Chelsea's offensive for a while. Magath played the last card in the 75th minute. Farfan played, but replaced by Asamoah-Magath put Altintop stayed on the court and moved more in the middle of the court, adding a strong reception point around Kuranyi.
There is no problem with the idea. In the case where the opponent is strictly defending the middle road today, it is more directly threatening to directly seek a breakthrough from the middle road, but Terry’s positive defensive ability, even at the peak of Kuranyi, is invincible, and Zhou Tiancheng today Activities on the middle road are always restricted by Barak. After Chelsea stabilized the situation, Schalke's efficiency in the frontcourt's high-pressure pressure was significantly reduced. Counting on the success of the frontcourt as often as the first half of the second half, such a mistake is almost impossible for a team like Chelsea.
……
At the moment when the final whistle sounded, Schalke could only accept a 1:1 draw. The home fans started cheering for the group's first qualifying, but Zhou Tiancheng just smiled a little. Did not even go to high-five with teammates. Even if Mattip came over to pull him, he only said: "It's almost done, Joel. It's just a draw, and it didn't win. Excited, don't forget our goal."
"Week, you're still so uninteresting." Matip shrugged and stopped worrying about Zhou Tian becoming.
All the reporters saw this scene and immediately became interested.
Zhou Tiancheng did not join the celebration of his teammates, what is the situation?
In the mixed interview area, many reporters gathered around Zhou Tiancheng and asked him if he was not satisfied with this home draw.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Tiancheng denied: "It should be said that some regrets are more accurate, but this point can ensure that the qualifying, the football game ultimately only looks at the results, so there is nothing unsatisfactory."
This answer actually made many reporters more curious: "But you don't seem to think so, you didn't celebrate with your teammates."
Zhou Tiancheng smiled: "You should look at us with a higher standard. We are no longer the team that used to target the group qualifying. Those first-class European giants, do they celebrate the group qualifying as a champion? I celebrate with my teammates We have a consensus that this year we have big goals, bigger goals than last year's semi-finals."
"What is it? Champion?"
"Champions? How are they possible? They can play Real Madrid?" The reporters from Spain in the crowd didn't believe it, and they didn't even shy Zhou Tiancheng to hear it and shouted directly. There was contempt in his eyes.
Kid, do you want to win? Hahaha!
"The secret. It's not time to reveal it." Zhou Tiancheng just smiled, avoiding putting himself on the cusp of the storm.
But Chinese journalists are like seeing Zhou Tiancheng's ideas. Since he said a bigger goal than last year, it must be the final. So who didn't want to win the championship in the final? With Zhou Tiancheng's desire to win, can he accept the logic of "failure is the mother of success" and wait for the next season?
So on the domestic website, there appeared a lot of titles such as "Zhou Tiancheng hinted that Schalke will impact the Champions League", "Ask Europe: Schalke season goal secret" and so on. Although fans know that Chinese sports media have always been unreliable, they are still willing to click in and watch it as a pastime. Nothing else, no one is unconvinced by the ability of people who say this. This is not a foolish ignorance, but a kind of ambitious ambition.
So the next Zhou Tiancheng League faced Bremen’s suspension. In the eyes of fans, it was a good thing. The national team and the club events were connected. It was not easy for him to get some rest time.
But Magath may be worried. In terms of the team's current configuration, Zhou Tiancheng is an absolutely indispensable part. In the presence of him, in the face of any opponent, Magath is confident to fight together, because Zhou Tiancheng's control is absolutely impeccable, but he is not there, even if he is facing an upstream team in the Bundesliga like Bremen, Ma Gatt has to fight back based on defense.
Because Zhou Tiancheng couldn't play anymore in the next game, Magath simply let him rest well. He knew that Zhou Tiancheng's club and the national team had no time to rest, and Magat rarely showed his benevolent side: " Chou, you need to make adjustments. I hope the team can successfully win the half-time championship. You know, Chou."
Zhou Tiancheng nodded, mixed in the Bundesliga for a season, of course he knew that 70% of the half-time champion would win the law of the league champion. In fact, he personally did not believe in the so-called law, but this is the kindness of the boss. Besides, although the half-time champion can't prove any problems, at least it can improve the confidence of the team. So Zhou Tiancheng also accepted the suggestion of a complete rest in the past few days. After the suspension period, he will come back and fight the rest of the team for the remaining two games.
Training base, Magath began to concentrate on the lineup without Zhou Tiancheng. Most importantly, he emphasizes running. Zhou Tiancheng is not only the core of the organization but also a big running output player. He is gone. Magath requires everyone to run an extra kilometer on the field to maintain the same intensity of the game.
In short, just keep running! Run desperately!
Everyone was tossed enough, but there was still some distance from Magath's expectations.
But Magath knew this was an inevitable problem. Training is not easy to solve, the most fundamental problem is that the overall strength is still too thin.
Thinking of this, he felt that he had to go to Helt to talk about it. This winter window that is about to open, the team must do something.
Magath took out a large piece of paper and handed it to Helt, with all the names on it.
"Felix, is this?"
"Horst, we have to do something during the winter transfer period. The team's current strength needs to be improved, so this is my favorite player. I hope the club can contact them."
"Felix, are you sure?" Helt's eyes widened. "Dear Felix, I have to remind you that we are not Bayern Munich, but we have no money to buy so many players, more than a dozen, too many. "
The eyes behind the Magath frame narrowed slightly: "Of course I know that I never regarded the team as Bayern Munich. If you take a closer look at these people, they are not the current stars. I just say let you come in contact first Contact, in fact, many people in this list are candidates. However, the people I marked are the players I need very much. You must try your best to talk."
"Felix, we used to promote young players from the youth training camp. This is our tradition. You look at for example Zhou..." Helt looked at the list. Several of them felt that it was more difficult. , So he wanted to persuade Magath to talk.
"Don't mention it anymore, Horst!" Magath interrupted him suddenly: "In the past, Schalke only wanted to build on the ranks of strong teams and qualify for the Champions League every season. But we have to defend now! This is not an emphasis on miners. The spirit is not something that can be done by promoting a few young players. They lack experience. I now need mature and experienced players to add in. This needs money to get it. By my standards, the current strength of the team is not enough At least after the week’s suspension, there is no guarantee that Bremen will win the next game. Do you think this is not a problem? I remember when I invited me, but I promised well. The team’s affairs, the club fully cooperates with me."
……
As the winter window approached, all teams began tentative quotations, especially the giants, and began to compete for the top demon in the world.
The focus of the Bundesliga's transfer has always been on Bayern, but this transfer window, the first big deal disclosed is related to Schalke 04.
This has surprised many media and experts. Schalke has never been the focus of the transfer market before. As a Bundesliga champion, they are even low-key and scary, especially in terms of buying players. Most news related to Schalke It's all related to the star's departure.
But this season's change of coach Schalke 04 seems to understand the living method of defending Jiangshan.
The first transfer transaction is related to them, and the target is a well-known star.
first revealed that Schalke sports director Helt was in a Milan coffee shop secret meeting with Huntelaar's agent Ostville, the Dutch international received the olive branch thrown by the Bundesliga champion. In a word, as long as the winter window opens, he is almost nailed to the Bundesliga!
In fact, this is why Magath chose Huntelaar as the striker's first choice. Although it is already a Bundesliga champion and may win the second time this season, before winning the Champions League, it certainly won't attract top players such as Eto'o and Ibrahimovic, and Magath can only look at it. Locked in those who have a certain reputation and proved themselves in the competition, but they are not able to play in the first-line giants. The unhappy star...Huntral is obviously of this type. Last year he was selected to the 2008 European Cup roster for the Dutch national team. He represented the national team nine times and scored seven goals throughout the year, which was extremely efficient. But the club's career has always been unsatisfactory, in Real Madrid and AC Milan can only sit on the bench. Definitely said that he left because he was obviously hopeless in Leonardo’s 4-3-3 system. He has a nickname of "Fanny II", indicating that he is the same as the predecessor Fanistrui. The center of the ninth position, but in Milan, he wants to compete with Inzaghi and Borriello for a main center position, which is obviously too difficult.
But two days after the news broke, his agent, Ostville, stood up and said: "I can now say for sure that he is a member of Milan at this moment~lightnovelpub.net~ As for some The club’s interest in him is just anecdotal. Exclude the possibility of his leaving the team in January? I can’t give an answer, but for now, I want to reiterate that I have no contact with other clubs."
According to the photos posted on that day, the determination to sit in Osterville is undoubtedly Helt, but now one party has denounced it, which only shows that there is no discussion. With the current low data contribution rate of Huntelaar, the possibility of deliberate speculation and seeking to sell for the price is very low, and Schalke is not a completely unknown club. With the current state of Huntelaar, it can’t be regarded as Schalke 04 climbed high.
"Felix, I have to tell you the bad news. Huntelaar probably won't be able to get it in a short time. His agent's asking price is five million euros. You know that this is definitely impossible. I'm sure one has been sitting for half a season The poor star of the cold bench, his contribution rate will not be the same as Zhou."
Zhou Tiancheng's current annual salary is only 5 million euros, but what level of data contribution is given? I think about it.
"It doesn't matter, I have thought that it will not be so smooth. Start the alternative, Horst, I hope that there will be fresh blood to join in the winter training, and I have enough patience for Kuranyi."
Helt smiled: "It's more difficult for you to choose, Van Nistelrooy! Do you know how many players from Real Madrid are fighting each year? How much competition do we have to face... I really hope to hear from you It’s just making me happy, just talking about it."
"I'm sorry, this is true. I need a tower-type shooter who can score, Horst. Don't sit in the office too comfortably. Challenge something difficult. Occasionally you will feel very accomplished, not Really?" Magath chuckled.
