Golden Greenery

After a bumpy journey, Zhuoyang rushed back to the beautiful peninsula of Hannover, and he also returned to football.

Zhuoyang was busy during the winter break, and Madibao Club was also busy. The team made some changes and adjustments. The biggest change is that the former "five veterans of Grade C" have left the Madibao first team.

Lauren, Brian, Dunbar, Dodd, and Tommy, the five remaining veterans from the Fox coaching era, actually have very young records. The eldest Lauren is only 31 and a half years old. These five people played an indispensable role in the continuous promotion of Madibo in the Klopp era. Although they are not as outstanding and glorious as the Six Musketeers, their low-key cornerstone is an indispensable part of any team.

It has been clear from the first half of the season that the abilities of the five players are completely unable to meet the minimum requirements of the Bundesliga. All five players played, but they were all soy games or garbage time. The five of them also know very well that their abilities are no longer worthy of today's Fort Madi, which has seriously hindered the team. Throughout the first half of the season, the five players were free of illness and disaster, but they could not help at all when the team was full of injuries and suspensions.

They are all professional players, they are all eager to play more games, and they are all shameless people.

After the winter break began, the five people had detailed discussions with Uncle Zha respectively. Klopp was also very frank and clearly told them that they would still have opportunities to play in the second half of the season, but they would not be more than before. Professional football is cruel, and Uncle Zha's approach is very kind and honest, so that everyone has more choices.

It's time to leave, even if you can't let it go, even Uncle Zha can't let it go. However, the five people left in different ways.

Italian, 28-year-old midfielder Kenny Dunbar returned to his hometown and joined Foggia in the Italian Serie C. The original worth of 170,000 euros eventually became a free transfer, and the money was subsidized by the Foggia club into Dunbar's salary.

Madibao is a place that values ​​friendship and righteousness!

The black-faced forward, 29-year-old Frenchman Max Dodd, rejected the invitation from the German third-division team Offenbach. Dodd said that he did not want to face the Madiburg B team in the third division, nor did he want to be an opponent. Back to the peninsula. Dodd returned to his parent club, Nimes Club of the French Third Division, from where he transferred to Madiburg more than four years ago. At that time, he came with a French boy under the age of 18, Frank. Ribery.

The 29-year-old Dutch midfielder Anthony Tommy also returned to the team he played before moving to Madiburg five years ago, the Dutch third division Maastricht, which is his hometown, Maastricht. This is a very beautiful and historic city and also the gourmet capital of the Netherlands. Zhuoyang agreed with him that he would eat the white lettuce and cave mushrooms there.

Braun and Lauren, who are relatively outstanding among the five, did not leave Hanover. The choice of 30-year-old midfielder Jerry Braun was unexpected. He agreed to a loan request from Hannover's local team Meppen. After two years, he Will be the core of the team's midfield there. Meppen finished second from last in the Bundesliga 3 last season and was relegated to the fourth tier Nordliga. Hannover is Braun's hometown. He was a talent cultivated by the youth team in the Madiburg Fox era. Before that, Braun had been in the Mepen youth team.

Defender Dennis Lauren, who also came from the Madiburg youth team, voluntarily went to coach Tuchel's B team. Even if he is a marginal substitute, Lauren, who has experienced the influence of the Bundesliga and the UEFA Cup, will become a team player in the C-League. The mainstay, and after many defenders of Madibao B team were adjusted to the first team, Tuchel also urgently needed experienced veterans like him to take charge.

The hard work is great, but they are not meritorious players. The five of them are not pretentious people. Everyone left silently, but everyone had a phone call with Zhuo Yang, and everyone also carried the UEFA Cup and DFB Cup champions. Depart with glory. .

At the beginning of 2005, there were no players from the Stanley Fox era in the Fort Maddie team. In just two years, the team completely changed its look. Travelers sit on a fast-moving train and just take a nap. When they open their eyes again, they suddenly find that the scenery is completely different.

If something goes, something will naturally come. In response to the problems that Madibao showed in the first half of the season, the team made adjustments and reinforcements.

First of all, captain Zhuo Yang lacks a substitute. Zhuoyang is the core of the field. All the team's formations are implemented around him, and daily training is also conducted with him as the core. As a result, the team's strength on the field with Zhuoyang and without Zhuoyang is seriously skewed, and the play style without Zhuoyang immediately becomes chaotic.

Madibao is a new team and a young team. It has not yet been able to reserve several operating methods to enrich the style of play. It can attack and defend counterattack, but it must rely on Zhuoyang. But because of Zhuoyang's all-round strength, although the team's midfielders are not weak, they are all very different from Zhuoyang's style. To use them to operate the formation as the core, they must be completely changed to something else. This resulted in the team having a small lead, and Uncle Zha did not dare to replace his captain.

Therefore, the team needs someone with a similar offensive and defensive style to Zhuo Yang. He does not need to be as good as Zhuo Yang, and he does not need to do everything. As long as he can allow the team to still play in the same mode after taking over from Zhuo Yang. As a result, 19-year-old French midfielder Mathieu Debuchy of the Madiburg B team was promoted to the first team.

Last summer, Madiburg hired Debich from the Lille youth team in France. He was originally supposed to enrich coach Carlisle's U19 youth team, but unexpectedly, the youth team could not hold him at all. After quickly emerging, he attracted the attention of Tuchel, and Debich was promoted to the B team. As a result, he attracted Uncle Zha's attention soon after the start of the new season.

Debich is an all-around midfielder who can shine anywhere, even playing as two full-backs and still looks decent. Fast, able to attack and defend well, Debich does not have Zhuo Yang's dazzling personal skills and super scoring ability, but his game in the midfield feels very Zhuo Yang. After failing to seduce Marek Mintal last summer, Uncle Zha suddenly discovered Debich in his own echelon, a player who is perfectly suitable to serve as a substitute for Zhuo Yang. After half a season of observation in the C-League, it was a matter of course that Debich, who had performed well, was promoted to the first team after two consecutive jumps.

Debich is only a few days older than Zhuoyang, and being a substitute for Zhuoyang is actually a very painful thing. This means that if neither of them leaves, no matter how outstanding you are, you will always be just a substitute, for the rest of your life. However, Debich is very happy. With his qualifications and strength, he doesn't dare to think so much now. If he can play in the top league and be mentioned a few words about Zhuo Yang when everyone talks about him, he will already be able to honor his ancestors. .

If it weren't for the two difficult 0:0 losses in the first half of the season, if Freiburg hadn't suffered a series of huge defeats in the last few games, and the total number of goals conceded was overtaken at the last moment, Madiburg would have become the biggest colander in the Bundesliga in the first half of the season. . Therefore, adding new recruits to the team's defense has become the top priority during the winter break, and the back line is also the area with the largest increase in personnel among the team's three lines.

Peng Peng Lewis and other three major defenders are facing great competition. Even except for Rock Dras, all other defenders feel that they are in danger.
