Football: Copy the attributes of peak Messi at the beginning

After three days of rest, on October 20, Werder Bremen faced the incoming Colts Monchengladbach at home.

Monchengladbach is a very strange team. According to domestic fans, this is the DGL in the Bundesliga - not killing unknown people, but specializing in robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

They are very good at beating Bayern, and they can always defeat or draw with Bayern in various unexpected ways, leaving Bayern in disgrace and losing points.

But when facing other teams, they are not in such good shape.

In this game, Werder Bremen's offensive was overwhelming, and Lin Quan and De Bruyne, who were in hot form, scored goals one after another.

The first half is not over yet, and the score has become 3:0, with Lin Quan scoring 2 goals and De Bruyne scoring one.

In the second half, the game changed sides and Werder Bremen continued to provide scoring performances for the home fans.

De Bruyne scored another victory in the 67th minute, and the score became 4:0.

Schaaf saw that there was no suspense in the game, so he decisively began to make substitutions.

Lin Quan and De Bruyne, the heroes of the goals, were replaced one after another. Both of them played for the national team and needed time to rest.

When the outcome is decided, there is no need to leave them on the court. If they are accidentally injured, there will be no place to cry.

Although Werder Bremen's frontcourt twin stars were replaced, the substitutes who came on did not disappoint the fans at the scene.

In the 77th minute, Phil Kruger, who came off the bench, scored another victory, making the score 5:0.

The foal has been beaten!

In the end, Werder Bremen defeated Monchengladbach with a score of 5:0 at home, sweeping away the haze of the previous three rounds of defeat.

In this round of the league, Bayern defeated Dusseldorf 5:0 in an away game and won two consecutive games, continuing to occupy the top spot.

Dortmund lost 1:2 at home to Schalke 04. The gap between them and Bayern widened again. The point difference between the two teams reached 12 points, and their ranking in the standings also dropped to 12th place.

Although the schedule is not over halfway, there are already very few people who are optimistic about Dortmund's defense of the title.

Everyone can see that there is something wrong with Dortmund's team status this season.

After the game against Borussia Monchengladbach, the next round of the Bundesliga is a week away.

Since Werder Bremen has no European competition, they have no games to play this week.

So, at the end of the game, Schaff gave the team three days off so that the players who were traveling back and forth for the national team game could have time to rest and adjust their condition.

The club's players cheered when they heard the news about the holiday.

Some unmarried players suggested going to a nightclub to have some fun and wanted to drag Lin Quan along.

Lin Quan didn't like the nightclub scene very much, and just as he was about to refuse, he heard Captain Fritz say:

"Don't bring bad children. Lin is still underage. Don't take him to places like that. Come to my house to play this weekend. Your sister-in-law and I have prepared an outdoor barbecue party. If any of you are interested, you can come together! "

Lin Quan still had to give him the captain's face, and besides, he really didn't have much to do over the weekend.

At the weekend, Lin Quan called De Bruyne and prepared to invite him to the captain's house.

As a result, De Bruyne returned to Belgium and said he wanted to take his girlfriend over to live with him.

After scolding him for favoring sex over friends, Lin Quan had no choice but to go out on his bicycle.

Lin Quan bought a souvenir on the way, and soon arrived at Fritz's home.

After ringing the doorbell, it was Fritz's wife, Alena Goebel, who opened the door.

Alaina is only 24 years old, 8 years younger than Fritz.

The age difference is not particularly big, but Fritz looks a little anxious, while Alena is a model, and her skin and figure are very well maintained. When they stand together, they feel like an old married couple.

"You must be the Lin that Clemens always talks about!"

Lin Quan's yellow appearance was easy to identify, and Fritz had greeted him in advance.

After Alena opened the door, she immediately recognized the other person.

"Hello, sister-in-law, is the captain at home?"

Lin Quan was surprised. He didn't expect the captain's wife to be so young and beautiful.

This made him a little hesitant and he didn't dare to go in.

It would be a bit embarrassing if the captain was not at home.

"Here I am!"

Alena noticed Lin Quan's hesitation, with a smile on her face. After shouting to the back, Fritz came over wearing barbecue gloves and an apron.

Unexpectedly, the captain turned out to be a househusband, and Lin Quan felt that his understanding of the captain had deepened.

"Lin, you're here, come in quickly!"

Fritz quickly greeted Lin Quan to come in, and enthusiastically led Lin Quan to the backyard.

Before Lin Quan could sit down, he saw club manager Alofs and team coach Thomas Schaff sitting opposite, chatting.

Seeing Lin Quan coming, Alofs stood up and shook hands with him.

"Lin, how are you enjoying your time in Bremen?"

"It's good. The weather here is good. It's not as dry and hot as Spain. My teammates at the club also take good care of me, especially the captain."

Lin Quan couldn't figure out the other party's intention, so he just treated him casually.

"Haha, as long as you like it here, Bremen may not be an international city, but as long as you live here for a long time, you will definitely fall in love with it."

Alofs said with a smile, and after finishing speaking, he winked at his old partner and motioned for him to speak.

Seeing that he couldn't hide, Shafu coughed and said:

"Lin, the team plans to compete in the European competition next season."

This is the first time Lin Quan has heard the club talk about its goals for next season.

At the beginning of this season, the club's main goal was to avoid relegation.

But now after eight rounds, they are ranked fourth in the standings. Not only are they far away from the relegation zone, they even hope to get tickets to the Champions League.

This gave Werder Bremen some ideas. They believe that with the twin stars of Lin Quan and De Bruyne, Werder Bremen's results this season will definitely be much better than last season.

At this time, setting the goal on relegation seems a bit too conservative.

Too conservative goals cannot inspire the players' fighting spirit. After the players see that they have completed the task of relegation, their enthusiasm on the field will decrease and they will become wantless.

But if they set their goal to enter the European theater, then the players may be able to maintain that momentum and fight all the way.

Maybe, if they fight to the end, they can really make it to the European theater.

Even if you can't make it to the Champions League, you can at least play in the Europa League.

The Bundesliga is the league with the highest points among the five major leagues. Their points in the European competition are second only to the Premier League and La Liga.

Therefore, they can be allocated 7 European competition places each season, including four Champions League places and three Europa League places.

Considering that the German Cup has long been monopolized by the top-ranked teams, this means that the top seven teams in the standings are eligible to represent the Bundesliga in European competitions next season.

Werder Bremen's performance last season was too poor and they did not qualify for the European competition.

But this season, as long as they maintain their current form and maintain their position in the standings without falling behind, they will most likely achieve their European goals.

"If we can break into the European competition, whether it is the Europa League or the Champions League, it will increase our income, and we can play high-level European competitions, which will also help us attract more outstanding players to join us! "

Club manager Alofs said frankly.

UEFA still takes good care of small and medium-sized teams. As long as they reach the Champions League, they can get a lot of bonuses.

If the results can be further improved, the money distributed will be more.

Of course, big teams, especially some wealthy clubs, will have higher broadcast income, which small teams cannot compare with.

In the era of commercial football, wealthy teams with good performance and good business development are not at the same level as ordinary teams in terms of income.

And more money means they can pay higher wages and have more abundant funds to buy their favorite players in the transfer market.

The main reason why small and medium-sized teams in major leagues cannot retain stars is because of low wages and few European games. They are too unattractive to stars and cannot stop wealthy clubs from poaching them.

Players are very realistic. Professional football is nothing more than the pursuit of money and the pursuit of honor.

And when they reach a wealthy family, they may get both money and honor.

In this case, between the wealthy and ordinary teams, they will definitely choose the wealthy!

If Werder Bremen wants to rise again, they must increase the team's income and reputation.

With the broadcast fees and game bonuses from the European games, plus the sponsorship income from sponsors, the team has money to buy powerful stars to improve the team's strength and record.

The improvement in performance can help them further expand their popularity and commercial value, thereby attracting more fans and better sponsors.

This is a positive cycle!

Werder Bremen once prospered. At that time, they could not only compete with Bayern in the Bundesliga, but also compete with giants in other leagues in the European War.

But now, Werder Bremen has been reduced to the point where there is no European competition to play, and it is even almost relegated.

If they want to revive and rise, it is not enough to retain the current main players. They also need to spend money to introduce more high-level players.

The current players in the club, except for a few international players, the rest are mediocre in strength. They are the kind of practical players with little fame and low wages.

It's okay to expect these players to play in the league and avoid relegation.

But it is not enough to expect them to take a step further and make a breakthrough in the European competition.

Therefore, they really want to keep the two young players Lin Quan and De Bruyne.

If they can be kept, the cornerstone of Werder Bremen's revival may be there.

Lin Quan felt that there was no need for the club to explain so much to himself about these things.

Coach Schaaf just had to announce the matter in the locker room. There was no need to make it so grand. The club manager and head coach were specially dispatched to do their jobs.

Unless, their purpose is not just as simple as setting a goal!

It seems that the news about his contract from Spain has reached Germany.

"Coach, don't worry, I will definitely be at 100% and play every game well."

The other party didn't make it clear, so Lin Quan had to pretend to be confused.

"Lin, I want to use you as the core to build Werder Bremen's offensive system!"

Shaf said sincerely:

"With your offensive ability in the frontcourt and De Bruyne's assist ability, our frontcourt attack group is basically completed. All that is left to do is to continue to improve the strength of the midfield and backcourt and introduce a group of Strong player!”

Schaaf tried to describe the club's grand blueprint to Lin Quan to attract him to stay.

But Lin Quan knows that neither De Bruyne nor himself can stay at Werder Bremen.

Coach Schaaf’s grand plan is destined to be unachievable!

"Coach, please rest assured that before the loan contract ends, I will conscientiously fulfill my duties as a professional player, score more goals for the team, and win every game as much as possible!"

After saying this, Lin Quan stood up and said goodbye to the two of them.

As expected, the captain calling him over was not as simple as attending a barbecue party.

Lin Quan sighed. He had actually understood the other party's implication for a long time, but he had been avoiding discussing the matter head-on.

He had a good stay at Werder Bremen, but this cannot be his final destination.

Sooner or later he will leave Bremen and go somewhere else.

If the topic is not made explicit, it would be good for both parties to maintain such a cooperative relationship.

But once the topic is raised, it may be difficult for the relationship between the two parties to return to the beginning.

Therefore, he could not give the other party a chance to clarify the topic and had to leave here immediately.

"The barbecue will be ready soon. Let's go after dinner, okay?"

Fritz saw that Lin Quan was leaving and tried to stay.

"Captain, I have something to do, so I will leave first. Thank you and sister-in-law for your hospitality!"

Seeing Lin Quan decisively leaving, Shaf and Alofs looked at each other with wry smiles on their faces.

Sure enough, I can’t keep him!

"Disappointed?"

Alofs asked his old partner.

Coach Scharf shook his head:

"How can we be disappointed when there is no hope in the first place?"

He looked at it very openly and did not sigh.

There was no hope in the first place, but they had a little hope after receiving the news that Lin Quan's contract only had half a year left and the liquidated damages were not expensive.

"The stage at Werder Bremen is too small. Staying here is a shackle for him. It's better to let him go and let him fly freely!"

"What about De Bruyne?"

"Like him, there is no hope. In fact, De Bruyne's loyalty to Chelsea is much higher than Lin's loyalty to Barcelona."

After working with Lin Quan for a long time, Schaaf discovered that Lin Quan had no idea about returning to Barcelona.

It was precisely because of this that they had the slightest chance of poaching.

Unfortunately, even if the other party does not return to Barcelona, ​​it is unlikely to stay in Werder Bremen.

Alofs also understood that what the other party said was right, but he still had a trace of luck in his heart.

How do you know if it works without trying it?

If you try it and fail, then at least you won’t regret it in the future.

"After De Bruyne comes back, I will contact him again. He is different from Lin Quan. There may not be a place for him at Chelsea."

Alofs sighed, no matter how small the hope was, he had to give it a try to see if it would work.

For the revival of Werder Bremen, even if there is only one in ten thousand chance, he will not let it go.

…

Lin Quan guessed that the club would probably also try to retain De Bruyne, but he did not ask De Bruyne about it.

He has been training seriously these days and actively preparing for the upcoming league match.

He calculated his points and found that he was not far from 20 points, which meant that he would soon be able to purchase a 20-point talent.

As for the next talent, there is no doubt that he will definitely choose to reduce injuries.
