i want to be king

Chapter 235 My starting point is the pinnacle of your life!
Su Dong spent two days in Munich.

In addition to visiting the headquarters, museums and factories according to the itinerary arranged by BMW, and attending the signing ceremony specially held by BMW for him, Su Dong also visited the Munich Olympic Park accompanied by Wang Chuqing.

This park is located just south of the BMW headquarters, surrounded by the Munich Olympic Village, the University of Munich where Wang Chuqing studied is also in the surrounding area, and the home court of the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich is in this park.

Su Dong went to visit Bayern's home court with a feeling of admiration for a long time, which is indeed very unique.

Most of the stands in this stadium are underground, which makes the whole stadium seem to sink in. The shape of the ceiling that only covers the stands in the west half is also very unique, which makes Su Dong appreciate it again and again.

The only pity is that, as the main venue of the Olympic Games, this stadium has a track and field track, which makes the stadium and the spectator stands a bit alienated, which affects the atmosphere of the stadium.

But overall, it's a very nice course.

"I heard that for the World Cup in Germany, they are building a brand new stadium in the north of the city. After the completion, Bayern Munich will move their home stadium there, and it will become a venue for sports events in the future." Wang Chuqing also felt quite regretful.

Su Dong's impression of Bayern Munich is also very good. After all, the legendary Franz Beckenbauer, whom he likes very much, once appeared here.

After finishing the trip to Germany, Su Dong and Mendes returned to Valencia first, leaving lawyers and negotiators to continue some follow-up affairs.

However, on the day after the Soviet Union returned, the German media suddenly broke a news.

I don't know whether it was by accident or by squatting, some media took photos of Su Dong visiting the Olympic Stadium in Munich.

This immediately caused a strong reaction in European football. Many people even speculated whether this means that Su Dong will transfer to Bayern Munich?

What's more terrible is that Bayern Munich has an ambiguous attitude towards this.

The top management remained silent, and the head coach Heathfield said in an interview with the media, "If Su Dong can be signed, then Bayern Munich's strength will be further improved, especially the team's offensive power."

The meritorious marshal said, "Su Dong and Ma Kai coexist, there is no problem at all!"

As a result, the media broke out immediately.

Even many mainstream European media followed suit, thinking that Su Dong will transfer to Bayern Munich.

Either the winter break, or next summer.

Only the people of the Valencia club know very well, where is this and where is it?

Su Dong is going to sign a commercial sponsorship contract, what does it have to do with Bayern Munich?
After returning to Valencia, on the first day of the team's training camp, Su Dong invited the whole team to eat together, but his teammates blackmailed him for another meal, saying that he wanted to "transfer" to Bayern Munich, and of course he had to invite another meal.

This made Su Dong "hate" in his heart the media that were chasing rumors.

Valencia played solidly and well in the first half, which allowed the team to occupy the leading position in La Liga by five points, but this is not safe at all.

Especially in the future, Valencia will continue to fight on the third front, and the pressure of the game is very high.

On the first day of the team's winter break training camp, Benitez posted the team's schedule for the second half of the season at the Patna base, and held a player meeting to discuss the second half of the game.

At the meeting, the Valencia coach focused on the challenge of La Liga.

"From the perspective of the schedule, our game in January is very tense. The match against Villarreal is a derby in the same city. I don't need to say more about the significance. The key lies in February."

Assistant coach Yesterdan followed the schedule and introduced the difficulty of the second half to all players.

"Starting from February [-]th, we will challenge Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Espanyol, Deportivo and Celta Vigo successively, and there will be two knockout matches in the Champions League round of [-]. If there is promotion to the Copa del Rey, there will be a Copa del Rey game. The schedule pressure is very high."

Not only Yesterdan, Benitez is also quite a headache for this schedule.

The schedule in February was even more difficult than the Devil's schedule in the first half.

Judging from the first half, the excellent performance of the devil's schedule greatly boosted Valencia's morale, which allowed the team to rush to the top of the standings.

Judging from the current situation, if they can play this hellish schedule in February and March, Valencia will not talk about expanding. As long as they can maintain the current five-point lead, half of the La Liga championship will fall into Valencia's hands.

If you can get three points against teams such as Real Madrid and Deportivo, then the championship is basically guaranteed.

But it is very difficult to do this.

Not to mention anything else, in this period of the schedule, the only weaker player is the Spaniard, but the Spaniard is playing away.

Don't look at Celta Vigo who is now in the relegation zone, but everyone knows that this team is unable to focus on La Liga because of the two-line battle, but when it comes to strong dialogue, who in La Liga can say that they can win Celta Vigo?

Moreover, it is still away.

But Yesterdan's analysis was right. If this wave is won, the league will have played 28 rounds.

In the remaining ten rounds, the opponents are not weak, but Valencia has a certain chance of winning. As long as there is a point advantage, the championship is basically in the bag.

But the premise is, how to play this part of the schedule?
"It is especially important to note that in this wave of matches, we will also go through two rounds of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-]. The opponent is a giant from the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich!"

This is also the freshly released result of the draw. The Valencia players even "blamed" Su Dong for visiting the Munich Olympic Stadium and provoking Bayern Munich, so he was asked to treat him to dinner.

But think about it, it's not right.

Among the eight No.2 teams in the UEFA Champions League group stage, there are two teams in La Liga, Real Sociedad and Deportivo, plus Marseille in the same group, so that Valencia may draw only five opponents.

Among them, the stronger ones are Bayern Munich and Porto, or the weaker but equally difficult Stuttgart.

If you're lucky, you'll get Sparta Prague and Lokomotiv Moscow.

But judging from this season, Valencia's luck has not been very good, so Bayern Munich was drawn.

Benitez and the coaching staff have also discussed this, and they all agreed that the overall state of the team must be adjusted in January, and at the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the players can cope with the challenges in February with the best state and the most abundant physical fitness.

"So during this period of time, you may rotate or even not play, but this does not mean that you can relax your vigilance, because February is our real battleground!"

As soon as the schedule of each season comes out, the head coach will formulate some game strategies based on the schedules between several competitors, and adopt appropriate tactics of grasping the big and letting go of the small to ensure that he can win some key battles.

For example, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​​​they put the national derby first every year.

To a certain extent, as long as the two giants win two national derbies, winning the championship is a high probability event.

Of course, a situation like this season is special, and both teams have had many problems.

Benitez's implication is that the most important thing in the game in January is to grab points. After all, if he maintains the points lead in January, then in the strong dialogue against Real Madrid and Deportivo in February, there will be more room for tactical maneuvering, and there will even be an advantage of winning if a tie is made.

It is foreseeable that, like the Copa del Rey, it is basically played by rotation and substitute players.

This is also a necessary trade-off.

If you have to go all out in all games, then Valencia will only be like Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad. It is difficult to play well on both fronts, and it may even be nothing.

The players are quite supportive of Benitez's arrangement.

Valencia's lineup is no thicker than that of giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona. At best, they can assemble a starting lineup that can compete with the giants. When it comes to multi-line battles, Valencia's pressure is still very high.

For example, Mohamed Sissoko, this young player has great potential, but he can't replace either of Albelda and Baraja.

Then there was David Navarro, whose performance was not even reassuring, with Ayala and Marchena playing under pressure.

So much so that there were voices in Valencia saying that they would buy a powerful central defender to act as the third central defender during the winter break, and the young player Albiol was also valued by Benitez.

This is the tragedy of small and medium teams!

Giants can flourish in multiple lines, but it is difficult for small and medium teams to do so.

They don't have enough financial resources to support a large and competitive lineup.

Compared with Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad, Valencia's situation is relatively good. At least there are two good players in many positions, and both have certain competitiveness.

……

After Christmas, Valencia began training at the Paterna base.

In order to better reserve physical fitness, the training intensity of the coaching staff is very high, which makes the players complain endlessly.

However, when thinking of the current results and the next key decisive battle, everyone tenaciously endured it.

For a team like Valencia, it is not every year that there is such a ranking and record. Once such an opportunity is seen, the players can burst out with incredible desire.

La Liga champion, this may be the pinnacle of the life of most players in the team!
Just ask, how could they not work hard?Not desperate?

Su Dong was not only emotional, but also cherished it even more.

His career has just begun, but he is already at the pinnacle of countless professional players.

Just ask, why doesn't he work harder?

Benitez and the coaching staff also know this very well, and they don't even need to mobilize too much. As long as they analyze the stakes clearly, everyone will work hard.

It was in this atmosphere that all Valencia players gritted their teeth and struggled for a week.

Everyone has been trained by the coaching staff to peel off the skin, but there are no complaints.

And after a week of training, every Valencia player looked determined and hungry.

like a wolf!
