Chapter 131 Zidane's substitute
When I returned to Germany, it was just in time for the game against Werder Bremen.

Edward settled down directly, and took the young Marcelo to the Fossere Stadium.

He has such a bad taste, he likes to show off the strength of Union Berlin to others first, and on the way there, he specially sent a message to Mourinho, telling him to try his best to win today, and to win well.

The reason why Edward did not say that he must win is because Bremen is not a persimmon. As a German fan, there is no one who does not like Klose. Although Klose is still in Kaiser and did not go to Bremen, Bremen's The legendary coach Schaaf is already in place. This buddy is a ruthless man. He led the small team to Bayern Munich for two consecutive years. He robbed the prey, making the name of Werder Bremen familiar to many Chinese fans born in the 80s and 90s. .

No way, in the previous life, except for the coastal areas, there were no transfers to the Premier League, so many fans watched what they broadcasted. Werder Bremen played really well. In addition, Klose, who has 02 headers in the 5 World Cup, can also Attracting fans, Werder Bremen has a lot of fame at once, but unfortunately this team has no money after all. If they can maintain this momentum, they can at least become another spoiler in the Bundesliga. Not bad, the population of Bremen is not small, but it is still very confusing to not be able to hold on.

There are many small teams that suddenly become champions, but their successors are weak. This is related to the local economy. After all, the purchasing power of the population in small cities and the football market are not good enough. The teams have no income, and it is impossible to compete every season. May is a city with a long history, and its population is as high as 66, which is considered upper-middle in Europe, and has a larger population than Dortmund in the Ruhr area.This innate condition is much stronger than many teams. For example, Newcastle, which has made a movie, looks very fanatical, but that city has a population of only about 20, which is more than three times the difference.

Bremen's football market is very good, but it is really fascinating not to become a giant. When Edward was reborn, they were already fighting to avoid relegation.

Seeing that it was still early, Edward made another call to Mourinho: "Jose..."

"Boss, do you know that the game will start in half an hour."

"Of course I know, so I remind you not to be careless today. Thomas Schaff learned from Rehhagel. He is a coach who advocates offense very much."

"The attack is just right, my team is the nemesis of attacking football."

Mourinho, who nodded on the phone, said nonchalantly.

"But, Jose, he's really good..."

"Okay, I'm a little busy here, so let's not talk about it."

Hearing the beeping sound from the handset, Edward shook his head helplessly. Mourinho's character is really too strong.He just reminded him to be careful of the sofa, but he didn't expect it to cause a strong reaction from Mourinho. No wonder this guy wandered around a lot in his previous life. No one can stand him except Moratti. Unfortunately, he still thinks that Inter Milan has no future. Real Madrid against Pakistan.In other words, Edward has a better personality. Although he is also very strong, he is absolutely willing to respect the opinions of professionals in non-professional fields, because what he hated most in the service industry in his previous life was that laymen know experts. What the fuck are you What will you ask me to do?
Although the opponent in this game is only Werder Bremen, but thinking of the double champion next season, Edward feels a little uneasy in his heart.Schaff was very good at coaching the team. This guy advocated offensive football, and the scene was not conservative at all, but the Werder Bremen defense was very solid.Even a season earlier, Edward believes that Bremen's tactics are very mature at this time, and now only the arrival of Klose and other super cores is needed.

Thinking of the little carpenter, Edward moved his mind.

Kaiserslautern will fall into an economic crisis this season. In order to save his home team, Klose will transfer, and then Union Berlin will have a lot to do.The team's current striker competition is fierce, but they are not Klose's opponents in terms of Nimbus headers. God knows how the 181 cm German can always compete for the top in front of tall German defenders.

"The goalkeeper is Stekelenburg of the Netherlands National Youth Team. His goal line skills are very stable. The right back is Brazilian like you. His name is Daniel Alves. He has a very strong assist ability; that is the front line. Nesta, the captain of the team, the best central defender in the world, his partner is Sergio Ramos, a very young but promising defender, and the guy on the left is Philippe from Manchester United Neville, is a very talented player, but his injuries have affected his performance..."

Edward sat in the stands and introduced Marcelo's lineup today. Although he did not sit in the box today, he did not sit with the youth team either.If he appears on the side of the youth team, he is likely to become the focus. Edward is more worried that Marcelo will not be able to adapt to this situation.

"The two defenders are Niguel de Jong and Xavi Alonso, they are really a combination of offense and defense, especially Xavi Alonso, he is the team's midfield engine, the future of football The trend is to move the core of the playmaker back, and even defenders require the ability to play the ball."

"There are also two boys on the wing who are Alger Robben and Cristiano Ronaldo..."

"I know them. Once I saw their introduction on TV. These two wingers are so good." Marcelo interrupted Edward, seeing that Edward didn't respond, he said boldly.

"They are indeed very good. This should be the strongest wing combination in European football in the next ten years." Edward made no secret of the coach on his face. The current Robben and Ronaldinho are still a bit stubborn, waiting for them When they become more mature, they will definitely develop better than their previous lives, and they may reach their peak earlier, when the entire European football world will tremble under their sharp breakthroughs.

Edward is also a little interested in another Portuguese player, Quaresma. This guy's super outside instep is unrivaled in martial arts, but Quaresma's character is a bit difficult to deal with. It took a lot of effort to adjust. The benefits of teaching to become a first-class star and paying are completely It's not directly proportional, there are so many available wings, he doesn't want to spend more effort on other players, and Quaresma has no special charisma.

If he had the loyalty of Juan Belleron, it would not be in vain for Edward to work hard, but unfortunately he did not.

"The kid in the middle is Wesley Sneijder, he is a very talented attacking midfielder, but he is not strong enough now, you can look at him when his hair falls out, and he will become a world-class star .”

Edward suddenly thought that the peaks of Sneijder and Robben seemed to start after they lost their hair. Could this be the legend that I became stronger when I became bald?

"The forward player is David Villa. This player has a very balanced ability on both feet, and has a good speed and sense of grabbing points. He should be one of the better forwards in the world in the future."

Marcelo was listening. Although he felt that the Union of Berlin was strong, he still didn't believe Edward's words, because Edward used the word "future" too many times. No one is God, so how can he see the future? ?

Schaff's team Edward doesn't know much, after all, the memory is far away, and there are still some main players who have not come to Bremen, such as the double K, Frings and Micoud who he is most familiar with. Klose knows that the opponent is still there. There was no transfer, but he didn't know whether Klashnic and Freiss came to Bremen. He only saw Micoud on the field.

Although the referee blew his whistle, the focus battle finally started.

Schaff's team has been very popular in recent years. Their playing style determines their wider audience. Schaff has a famous saying: Of course it is easier to defend with eleven players, but that kind of football is completely meaningless.

It's not that the Germans don't like offensive football, but offensive football without results can't last. Otherwise, why Wenger would be sought after in England is not because the game is more beautiful.

After the game started, Marcelo was completely immersed in the Bundesliga game.

The Bundesliga team looks more organized and disciplined than the Brazilian team at the beginning of the game. The Brazilian's worship of offense is really deep-rooted.

"Eddie."

Caroline put her head on Edward's shoulder: "Do you think our child will be a boy or a girl?"

"It's okay, but I prefer my daughter."

Edward shrugged and said that he really liked his daughter more. Although he had no children in his previous life, he always felt that his daughter was more caring.

"But I prefer boys. In that future, I can play football. Maybe I will become a big star, a legend of Union Berlin."

"Perhaps, but I don't think there is that possibility."

Things like sports still need to be inherited. There are many people whose parents or grandparents are not athletes, but their physical fitness is not bad. Just Edward, who is young and strong, and Caroline, who is a delicate Brazilian girl, are two people. It is estimated that the child will not have too strong physical fitness, and the ball feel may not be very good.

Edward felt that the child's appearance must be the same, but it would be difficult to develop in the sports circle in the future.Many first-class players, whose parents were even players before, may only be third-rate players, but the foundation is that if his and Caroline’s children do not mutate, even if they barely become players, they will at most be third-rate players. However, this kind of thing is not good for Edward. Said clearly.

Today is an away game for Werder Bremen, so they didn't press hard after the start.Schaff's team puts a lot of emphasis on offense, but it's not the kind of mindless rush. They were silently probing at the beginning. Their pass-and-pass coordination was nothing in front of Union Berlin, so Schaff adjusted the game's tactics before the game. .

Fight back.

After Bremen's test, the formation has begun to recover, ready to give up space and possession of the ball.

This does not mean that they give up their offense, it is just a tactical adjustment.

Mourinho watched Bremen retreat in an orderly manner, and the little contempt in his heart was finally put away.No wonder Edward had repeatedly reminded him that this colleague was indeed a bit skilled.

Many teams will choose to counterattack when facing Union Berlin, but their arrangements are full of loopholes.Seeing Bremen's oppression of Union Berlin's flanks today, Mourinho knew he had met a strong opponent.

But to this extent?

Ah,
The opponent has a lot of ideas, but let’s not talk about whether Robben and Ronaldinho are players who can be marked to death by one person. The two wingers of Union Berlin are also very capable of assisting, and Philip Neville is even more balanced. If you want to completely stare at Union Berlin's flanks, you have to give way to the center. Wouldn't that be better?

Union Berlin is not impatient after taking the ball. Harvey Alonso has grown rapidly after arriving in Berlin, mainly due to the fact that Edward has seen many midfield masters play in his previous life, and Mourinho’s requirements for the team , this young midfielder's understanding of football is getting deeper and deeper.

Regardless of the metronome or the team's brain, he still has to control the rhythm of the team after all, instead of taking the ball without thinking and making long passes to find opportunities. That kind of infinite impact will only waste physical energy when facing strong teams. If you can't score as soon as possible, the team will play very passively after the team's physical fitness declines.

So Harvey Alonso is always trying to find that point, the critical point of the opponent's physical fitness and mentality, discover the opponent's weakness, and then launch a fatal blow.

The mentality of both sides not eager to attack surprised the commentary on the scene: "Did I read it wrong today? The two most aggressive offensive teams in the Bundesliga are actually playing passively. Werder Bremen in the away game retreated. It was very thorough, with only two strikers in a symbolic press up front; but today even Union Berlin did not play their whirlwind, which will disappoint many fans."

"It seems that both sides are very cautious and full of vigilance against each other, but I still hope that both sides will focus on offense as soon as possible and play a wonderful offensive battle."

At this time, Union Berlin moved, after all, they are not the kind of team that likes to play from the backcourt.

There are too many players in the opponent's half, and it is impossible for Harvey Alonso to launch an attack with a long pass directly, so he chose to pass the ball to the wing, advancing step by step, gradually shifting the battlefield to the opponent's half. field.

There is nothing to say about Alves' dribbling skills. He often passes the ball by himself.

After the past, he got to the foot of Alonso who was plugging in. Alonso gave back to Alves again, and he started to retreat.At the beginning, it is not easy for him to press too far forward, so De Jong will be under a lot of pressure.

Although Nesta is very stable in the back line, Harvey Alonso still pays attention to the protection of the defense line at all times. This is a habit he developed while playing in Real Sociedad.

Alves wanted to continue dribbling the ball forward to get in touch with Robben, but this time he was seen through by the opposing player and was directly intercepted, and Bremen began to counterattack.

After a long pass found Micoud, Edward felt that things were going badly.Isn't Miku a midfielder? How could he appear behind Alves?

Micoud has no chance in the French national team, but the legendary superstar Zidane put him on the bench. This kind of thing is not shameful. On the contrary, Micoud is quite capable. There will be greater fame.
