Star Coach

As the game approaches, Hoffenheim's training intensity continues to increase, and the players' physical accumulation is getting stronger and stronger.

Jiangshan looked at the team's personnel configuration. Not to mention the back line, it is relatively stable. The midfielders Hitzlsperger and Rahn have a large defensive coverage, and they are tough and powerful, just like a midfield butcher.

Kai changed his position and is still adapting. As a full-back, he did a good job in defense, but his offensive organization was slightly inferior. Jiangshan arranged special training, especially long passes in counterattacks, and added training after the training.

Kai also cooperated quite well and took the initiative to increase the amount of training.

The three players in the frontcourt adapted quite quickly. Dorante's wooden stake attribute remained unchanged. At the front of the penalty area, he passed the ball left and right. Kuranyi and Didik were both fast players. As long as Dorante passed the ball in place, their back-up counterattacks were quite sharp.

Especially Kuranyi, who provided one-stop services for dribbling, shooting and passing. His strength was much higher than the average level of the German Southern League, and he was quite a change.

The new 4321 formation will not be a regular formation. It is understandable to use it against strong teams, but most teams in the German Southern League are not as well-equipped as Hoffenheim, and they need a strong attacking formation.

However, the 4321 formation has been well-coordinated, and the frontcourt players can open up space and switch smoothly between 4321 and 433. This is how they played last season, and there is no big problem.

Of course, the defense in the midfield will drop a level, and Kai is under great pressure, and he does not have enough ability to get rid of it. However, Jiangshan thinks clearly that Schweinsteiger is still in the team, and the problem will not be exposed for the time being. Before Christmas, the team will definitely rush forward.

Schweinsteiger's instigation and control are very strong, surpassing any player in the German Southern League.

During this period, the formation running-in has been on the right track, and the "hostile elements" headed by Schweinsteiger and Duraf finally found it difficult to win again. Huth, who was originally very happy to score a goal, is now carried by Rahn and it is difficult to find a chance.

This guy really thinks of himself as a striker.

After the game, the extra training group is constantly expanding. Since last season, Hitzlsperger has been training set pieces, and the threat of set pieces has shown results at the end of last season.

The special training is for Kai and Didik, one is mainly practicing long passes and getting rid of on the spot, and the other is practicing long-range shots. Didik was beaten by Jiangshan a lot last season, and his football IQ has increased. He plans to reach a higher level.

Now there are Rahn and Huth. Rahn keeps thinking about his ability to organize offense, and at the same time strengthens his long-range shooting practice. He has explosive physical fitness and is very threatening with long-range shots. And Huth, this guy is actually thinking about how to shoot... Jiangshan saw this and criticized him fiercely. Usually, training lets you shoot as a striker to feel the striker's choice on the field. The purpose is to let you understand how to defend the striker. You are addicted?

Huth's square face instantly turned into an embarrassing word. He looked at Jiangshan embarrassedly and said tremblingly, "Coach..."

Facing a 16-year-old child, Jiangshan held back his temper, "What I mean is, you need to think more, understand? Shooting, defending shots, these are the problems you think about. Fighting for headers, how to control the sky of the stadium? I'm optimistic about you."

"Well, I will try hard." Huth nodded heavily.

Tuchel shrugged, "Does he understand?" Jiangshan smiled bitterly, "Why don't you go and talk to him?"

"I'll go grab the ball." Tuchel rushed to Kai, "Look at my German horse legs."

The team's training effect emerged, and the players' spirits were suppressed. We are just a newly promoted team. We will play steadily and fight for every game to strive for a high ranking.

Jiangshan has been instilling in them the concept of upgrading. The team is very strong, not weaker than the team of the German Southern League. Confidently do every move and cherish every wave of offensive opportunities.

The new season is about to begin. The schedule of the 2001-02 season of the German Southern League has been arranged. The first game of the German Southern League will be against the Bayern Munich amateur team, which is the affiliated team of the Southern King.

In Germany, many fans have criticized the existence of the second team. The second team often sends the main players of the first team to participate in important games, which distorts the meaning of the game. Schweinsteiger's cheeks are hot. Seeing his old teammates in the first game?

At the same time, since Hoffenheim won the Baden-Württemberg League championship with an unbeaten record last season, the Blues have the qualification to participate in the German Cup and become one of the 64 participating teams.

The German Cup is the most important cup in Germany. Starting from last season, the Bundesliga teams will also start from the first round to show fairness. However, the rules of the draw are also simple, and the battle between the two teams seems to prevent upsets.

In the first round of the draw, the numbered balls of 18 Bundesliga and 14 Bundesliga teams were placed in the No. 1 draw box. These were professional teams and seeded teams, 32 teams; in the No. 2 draw box, there were 24 amateur team numbered balls, Hoffenheim was an amateur team, and there were 4 Bundesliga promoted teams and 4 Bundesliga relegated teams numbered balls, a total of 32 teams.

Draw the numbered balls from the two boxes and play the match-up game. Amateur teams faced professional teams in the first round, and few survived, so there were almost no upsets.

The draws from the second to fourth rounds were the same as the first round. The teams were divided into two draw boxes according to their strength. The teams in the No. 2 draw box had home advantage, which increased the income of small teams.

The German Cup matches were all decided in a single game, so after four rounds, the top four teams had been decided.

"Top four?" Jiangshan murmured, "With our strength, how much luck do we need to get into the top four? Prepare to attend the draw ceremony first."

He looked at Tuchel and felt that this freight was not good, and he looked pitted. Forget it, I'd better go by myself!

At the same time, Durav's transfer is also nearing completion. Jiang Shan decided to settle it early and had a showdown with him after training, "The team has decided to let you go to Lübeck Club."

"What? Lübeck?" Durav jumped up, "Isn't it a Stuttgart kicker? Their bid reached 2 million marks."

"I also want you to go to the Kickers, but the team also has to consider balance of payments. You are an important player for us. We didn't want to sell. Since you want to leave, the team is doing it for your career and for the team's sake." Income must be sold at a high price. "Jiang Shan said seriously, "A player's worth is a reflection of his strength and respect for the player."

"The Lübeck club paid 3 million marks, and they are short of midfielders. You can be the main force, and you are very sincere."

Durav didn't know how to argue. He flirted with the Stuttgart kicker, and they were in love with each other. They just needed to announce the transfer, but he didn't expect to get out of Lübeck halfway. Although they are both Bundesliga teams, Lübeck is in Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost state of Germany, and has moved to Northern Europe. He still wants to stay in the south.

"I don't want to go to Lübeck. I will let my agent negotiate with the team."

Jiang Shan sneered, showing his ferocious fangs, "You have no choice, this is your best choice. If you don't transfer, no problem, your contract has three years left, I will let you stay in the team."

The meaning is obvious. If you don't want to leave, you have to leave. Go far away. Out of sight and out of mind. Who likes to sell people to their neighbor's team? When will I rake it down? If I can’t eat it, I’ll have to walk around.

Durav's whole body was shaking. If he refused to give in, he would end up dying on the bench. He was already 28 years old. How many more years could he play? Offending Jiangshan seems to have no good end. "This guy holds a grudge."

Thanks to 37033 and Wu Tai for the reward.
