Coaching career started as a college team coach

February 13.

London, Heathrow Airport.

"This is my first time to Germany. I've never been there before." Alphonso Davies said suddenly, looking at a plane being pushed out of the window.

"I've only been there once, but not to Dortmund." Rodri said, "None of our brothers have been abroad much."

Alphonso Davies didn't respond. He had only taken a few flights in his life. The first time he took a flight was from Edmonton to Vancouver. When he signed with the Vancouver Whitecaps, the team bought him a ticket.

The second time was when he flew to England and then took a train from London to Wolverhampton to sign with the Wolves. At other times, in order to save money, he would take other cheaper but longer means of transportation.

He didn't travel much, and although his current salary could support his expenses, he still preferred to play games in his room.

Rodri saw Alphonso Davies in a daze and didn't ask much. He knew Alphonso Davies's situation. He had lived through hard times, which were even harder than Rodri imagined.

But Alphonso Davies has always been optimistic. He does not shy away from his refugee identity, and does not care to discuss this past. Facing the past wandering, Alphonso Davies will brush aside the pain, but pick and choose the parts that can make people laugh.

Alphonso Davies is very strong-willed, perhaps because he shoulders more responsibilities.

There is a sentence that Alphonso Davies said, and Rodri was deeply shocked after hearing it.

"When people hear the word refugee, they will have a negative impression, and I hope to bring a positive impact. People will say that refugees are a problem, but we are all human beings, and refugees do not choose to become refugees themselves." This is what he said at the end of his self-introduction.

And he has never been lazy in training, and always conscientiously completes any work given to him by Wei Le. Whether he is a substitute or a main player, he is willing to do his best on the court.

No one will dislike such a guy.

"I'm actually a little nervous. What if I get airsick?" On the other side, Maguire was a little embarrassed to communicate with Ruben Dias. The sturdy man on the field seemed very flustered at this time.

"Uh..." Ruben Dias scratched his head, "I have chewing gum, I can give it to you. Maybe it will be better?"

"Okay, okay..." Maguire was a little restless in the waiting area.

"I'm here." De Paul, who was late, finally came back from the toilet. After arriving, Wei Le took off his headphones and counted the number of people. He saw that boarding had begun, and he waved his hand and strode forward--

"Let's go!"

"To Germany!"

It took more than ten days from the end of the draw to the departure of Wolves to Germany. During this period, the league went from round 25 to round 27. Wolves won one game and drew two games, accumulating 5 points, and is still ranked fifth in the league.

First, they won a 1-0 victory over Leicester City at home, and then tied with the professor's Arsenal at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium 1-1. After returning to their home court, they tied with the visiting Crystal Palace. The Wolves, who were fully rotated, did not score a goal in this game, and fortunately, Crystal Palace did not score either.

The purpose of the Wolves' rotation is very simple and very obvious, that is, to make way for the Europa League.

After landing in Dortmund, the Wolves borrowed the training center of Schalke 04, Dortmund's mortal enemy, and Schalke 04 gladly accepted it. The "feud" between Schalke 04 and Dortmund is a topic known to the whole world, and they are certainly willing to help the Wolves send Dortmund home.

And Yang Qi in Hannover had heard that Wei Le was coming, and he said he would come out to have a meal with Wei Le, but was still declined by Wei Le. It's not that Wei Le didn't want to go, it's just that the schedule was too tight and he really didn't have time to go out to find Yang Qi.

"Okay, I'll go back to China to eat after the season." Yang Qi was a little regretful, but also understood. As a player, he has free time in the evening after training, but as the head coach, Wei Le's working hours are not fixed, and he often works until late at night without a break.

Thinking of this, Yang Qi admires Wei Le even more.

As a young man of similar age, Yang Qi had a hard time finding a position in a weak Bundesliga team, while Wei Le has led the team to the Europa League championship!

Thinking of this, Yang Qi recalled that he was a little disappointed for a period of time before because he had no playing time. He even had a broken jar and was a little neglectful of training. At that time, the exhaustion and frustration after training every day magnified his fatigue and made him feel very bad.

And thinking of Wei Le's current job,Yang Qi wanted to punch his former self.

He felt tired after two training sessions a day, how could he catch up with Wei Le? !

Thinking of this, he didn't want to rest, but turned on the computer and started to look through the team's game videos to familiarize himself with the team's tactics and play.

Wei Le certainly didn't know about Yang Qi's psychological activities. He was now looking at the Dortmund fans gathered downstairs in the hotel, waving flags and cheering, feeling a little helpless.

"They are really persistent." Celars commented, and Wei Le nodded in agreement.

"What should we do?"

Gianluca Conte said helplessly, "When I was at Chelsea, my brother would give the players headphones and earplugs, and we also prepared this. There is no other good way..."

"What about calling the police?"

"It's not that we haven't tried it." Celars said, "But the Dortmund police only came to dissuade them. They did stop for a while, but they started knocking again immediately."

"Actually, it's a good thing." Wei Le, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly smiled and said.

"Why is it a good thing? It will definitely affect the players' rest." Celars was puzzled.

Wei Le shook his head, "Rest can be made up tomorrow at noon, but there is no need to say more about morale."

Gianluca Conte laughed, he understood what Wei Le meant. Look at which player's face is not holding back anger, wanting to fight with Dortmund immediately?

"I knew the away atmosphere was scary, but I didn't expect it to be like this..." Jota couldn't help complaining, "I thought the away atmosphere was to scare the home players, but I didn't expect that I only felt disgusted in Dortmund..."

Bowen leaned on the edge of the bed, swiping his phone, and answered casually, "Normal. Disgust, anger, sadness, fear, no matter which one, as long as they can create negative emotions for you, they will succeed. When we go to the game exhausted and irrational, it will definitely be bad."

"Earplugs are quite useful." Jota tried to wear the earplugs that the coaching staff had just distributed, and the world immediately became quiet.

When distributing earplugs, although it was clear that everyone had brains, Wei Le still repeatedly told everyone in each room not to leave the hotel door. Even if they had to go out, they had to wear casual clothes and go out from the back door.

If you wear Wolves' training clothes or other clothes with Wolves printed on them and walk out of the front door openly, it will be dangerous!

Of course, it is gratifying that most of the young players of Wolves are homebodies who prefer playing games to going out for a walk.

"Let's play a game of FIFA?" Bowen jumped out of the bed and took out the laptop and controller from the bag.

"Come on!"
