Grassroots Glory

v7 Chapter 53: Get together again

Van Gaal's heart is definitely not willing to let any player.

The World Cup has just ended. There is no formal international competition on this international competition day. All of them are warm-up games that are painless and itchy, because the two warm-up games let their players get tired and Van Gaal is particularly uncomfortable.

He did not show up in front of the media. Because the friendly matches on the international match day arranged by FIFA belong to the A-level competition recognized by FIFA, according to regulations, no club coach has the right to refuse.

But this discomfort focused on Zhou Tiancheng.

The reason comes from the China Football Association's recruitment order-clearly writing "In preparation for the 2015 Asian Cup of Australia", Van Gaal checked the time of the Asian Cup again. It opened on January 9, 2015 and has to be kicked until January 31. End of the day.

At that time, the team should be the most important time, the League Cup has been out, leaving the League and the FA Cup, nowhere to let Manchester United breath.

When I thought of Zhou Tiancheng's absence at that time because of the national team's event... Maybe for a whole month, Van Gaal didn't want to let go now, so he found Zhou Tiancheng alone for this matter.

"Zhou, I understand very well now that you are very important to us, and you should have this understanding yourself. A friendly match like this is important for the Chinese team? You just won the fourth place in the World Cup, I think without you Will they also play very well?"

Zhou Tiancheng was a little stunned. He didn't expect that Van Gaal would actually block himself. Although Klopp was also very annoyed at first, but at most he was just joking with himself.

"Sir, Marcelo Lippi just called me personally... The others are ready to go. This is the official International Competition Day. If the club can refuse, I can certainly obey."

Van Gaal was even more unhappy, and he didn't need to say much, even if he still wanted Zhou Tiancheng to refuse, but now it seems impossible.

Deep in his heart, he actually wanted to remind Zhou Tiancheng to protect himself, but this word came out of his mouth and turned into another taste: "Well, Zhou, I won’t stop you. But if I let you find you When you come back, you can’t meet the standard. You understand that other players are also waiting for opportunities."

Zhou Tiancheng smiled secretly in his heart, he understood what Van Gaal meant. This is to spur himself, maybe the starting point is still good, but this dog can't spit out ivory...it is speechless.

In this respect, Zhou Tiancheng compared his last head coach, Klopp, with him, and he is still a tough and soft person.

...

The latest issue of the national team is preparing for battle. The short-term goal of the Chinese team is the Asian Cup in Australia early next year. It is also an important step in preparing for the World Cup qualifiers. From now on, it will be the layout of the World Cup in Russia four years later.

The national team's roster has undergone preliminary exchanges. Zhou Tiancheng was the last to rush to the Guangzhou national team training base. The biggest change is that he did not see his elder brother Zheng Zhi.

Zhou Tiancheng smiled, it seems that Zheng Zhi really retreated from the national team.

In Europe, this is a normal phenomenon. Excellent professional players often withdraw from the national team much earlier than when they actually hang up their boots. There is no high-intensity tournament for the national team, which can guarantee the continuation of the career to the greatest extent.

Although Zhou Tiancheng has never played in domestic clubs, he knows that there is no such thing as retiring from the national team in domestic football.

As long as they do not really retire, the national team's order will be found.

34-year-old Hao Haidong also participated in the 2004 Asian Cup as the main striker, while 31-year-old German captain Ram has announced his withdrawal from the national team last month.

Continuously squeezing the value of veterans, this is also a performance of no good generals available for a period of time. Zheng Zhisuan set a precedent in domestic football. It's just that Zhou Tiancheng still feels incredible.

With Zheng Zhi's ability and experience, Zheng Er has played the main role of the national team for another two years without problems. Really retreated?

More interestingly, he saw Zheng Zhi wearing a casual suit beside Lippi.

"Dachengzi, even if you come back, it will be hard."

"Yo, Zhige, it's time to congratulate you. In the future, this is a new position to lead us. You will be called Zheng Zheng later!"

Zheng Zhi shot Zhou Tiancheng: "Let me run down, don't even the old man have to rely on you, tell me this, bully me, rookie, right."

"Where is it, don't you have to be like this in the future? You haven't completely retired, Zhige? It's good. This is the second half of life in advance."

Zhou Tiancheng joked a few words, and then found several brothers who were studying abroad together on the training ground.

The training hasn't officially started yet, but a few people got together and practiced separately. Zhou Tiancheng watched with great interest. It looked like Jiang Hao and Wu Sanshi were competing to shoot the front sight.

Without defense, the two volleyed at the front of the penalty area and volleyed to see who broke Mingtao's goal more often.

Zhou Tiancheng watched for a while, Jiang Hao and Wu Sanshi each hit four times, but he still shook his head gently. Ming Tao did not make an effective save, Zhou Tiancheng felt that this was new.

Fortunately, Paris Saint-Germain is now looking to build the top European giants. The success rate of saving is too touching?

Zhou Tiancheng looked at it for a while, and walked over to the scene ~lightnovelpub.net~ Seeing him, everyone came around.

"Come on, Chengge."

"Yo, it's time to watch the gods, hey, tell us about the Premier League?"

"Brother Cheng, I have heard about it in Milan. Isn't Van Gaal's stupidity waiting to see you? Hey, he has good fruit!"

Zhou Tiancheng was in the middle and greeted everyone with a high-five. He hadn't met this group of brothers for a long time. The first thing I noticed was that Jiang Hao's big man was obviously thick.

"Hiroko, yes, it seems to have worked hard in Milan."

Jiang Hao was somewhat proud: "That's it, and you can't be just the elder brother. You're alone, I am also Milan's thigh."

"However, your big man is exaggerating and practicing very hard!"

"That is, trying hard to practice the ball."

"Oh, is it football or... cough... Anyway, Italy is very famous."

Jiang Hao looked at his brothers with a smile, staring at him curiously. Hehe smiled: "I said it's good, do you dare to believe it?"

Zhou Tiancheng gave a thumbs up: "Awesome, I can't compare."

Then Zhou Tiancheng turned his head to look at Ming Tao on the left: "Xiao Tao, wouldn’t you be in Paris too? Paris is a romantic capital, but you don’t wave too much. Just now I saw you didn’t make any one. , Brother, are you okay?"

Ming Tao was a little unhappy: "Brother, you have to ask me to look for the status. In the past few months, I have to play the second goalkeeper and serve as a substitute. The status is not so good."

Zhou Tiancheng grinned: "If you don't listen to your brother's words, you will be at a loss. You deserve not to listen to me at first!"

PS: The author is here to make the call without permission, let Zhige switch roles. I can still clearly remember the performance of Zhige after losing to Iran in the Asian Cup. We are too sad to stop coming. Just like that, I feel very good...
