Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 233
Zlatan Ibrahimovic is also very ambitious. He is eager to succeed, but who defines success, not himself, but the golden championship trophy, the golden Golden Globe Award, and the golden World Footballer trophy.

At Ajax, he deliberately intensified the conflict with Van der Vaart. Yes, he deliberately intensified the conflict. Absolutely not to make a fuss.

However, Ibrahimovic deliberately made the conflict public under the instruction of Raiola, so that in the end Ajax had to sell him to Juventus, which was in full swing in Europe at the time.

It's a pity that Ibrahimovic got nothing in Juventus, the league title was deprived, and the Champions League also failed to win the title.

After Juventus was relegated, he would not stay there to waste time, so he chose to join Inter Milan. In fact, Inter Milan was also a very competitive team in Europe at that time. It should be said that Raiola The choice with Ibrahimovic is right.

But in the past few years after arriving at Inter Milan, the league title has been soft, but the Champions League has always been nothing. Ibrahimovic believes that he must not be considered successful now because he has not won the Champions League trophy, nor has he ever won the Champions League. Ballon d'Or, he's been a total failure so far.

Zhang Yuan’s words had to make him think that maybe Inter Milan is not really strong, it’s all blown out by the outside world, he worked so hard, but the Champions League is still hard to achieve, and everyone blames me, thinking that I played in the European war It's soft-legged shrimp.

What about him, I'm not a soft-footed shrimp, it's because the teammates around me are not strong, okay? !
leave here?Find a team that matches my strength?
This idea suddenly spread irresistibly in Ibrahimovic's mind, until the end of the party, Ibrahimovic seemed a little bit uninterested.

At the end of the UEFA Champions League group stage, even if Zhang Yuan has completed all the games in the first half of the season, Schalke 04 still has one game left. This game is away to challenge the league leader Hoffenheim.

Because Zhang Yuan will not participate in this game, and the time is approaching the winter break, the club told Zhang Yuan not to train with the first team. Anyway, you will not participate in the game these days, so why not just hang out with the youth team, which means I hope that Zhang Yuan will go to the youth team to inspire those young people.

Zhang Yuan was noncommittal, but Buskens and Mulder agreed. They thought it was a good idea. Anyway, it was an early vacation for Zhang Yuan. The training intensity of the youth team was much lower than that of the first team.

So the media on the second day had an extra theme "Zhang Yuan was sent to the youth team? ", fortunately, this article does not mean that Zhang Yuan was really transferred to the reserve team, but that Zhang Yuan followed the club's arrangement to train with the youth team. The reason is not clear, but it is certainly not true.

Schalke 04's youth team training ground is also in this base, and the youth team is also divided into many echelons. The club intends to make good use of Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan himself does not know that he is very popular in the youth team. The idol of many young players.

It’s a bit embarrassing to say it, some of them are a little older than Zhang Yuan, and some of these players were teammates with Zhang Yuan for a period of time during the summer training camp, and Zhang Yuan didn’t feel embarrassed when they met. It was a bit embarrassing, but soon everyone let go, after all, they are all young people.

The arrival of Zhang Yuan really lifted the spirits of the young players. The training field between the youth team and the adult team was only separated by a bushy green wall, but the intersection between the two teams was very little. With such a heavy task, how could the players have time to go to the youth team.

Except for the possibility of selecting the youth team to play in the pre-season training camp, there is really not much interaction between the two teams.

Zhang Yuan usually focuses on his own training and has almost never been to the youth team. As the most prosperous golden boy, it is not surprising that he is admired by the youth team teammates.

The enthusiasm in the training has also increased a lot, and the youth training coach Thomas Waldoch can't wait to let Zhang Yuan take root here.

Zhang Yuan's coming down is not only an incentive, but how to handle the ball in the internal match is also a good demonstration for young players.

This is what Waldoch wants. Speaking of which, these players are still young, and sometimes they will make the same mistakes they made over and over again, but there is the same young man who is there to face the common problems they face. But they make different choices, and their experience must be much more important than what Waldoch said.

Draxler was very honored to meet Zhang Yuan again. He could observe Zhang Yuan's handling of the ball at close range, and he liked to ask Zhang Yuan questions.

In the final analysis, the problem of handling the ball is a multiple-choice question, and Zhang Yuan will patiently explain to him his thoughts and why he did it. As for whether the choice is correct or not, only Draxler can judge it by himself.

In addition to staying in the youth team, Zhang Yuan was also invited by the club to the football school of Schalke 04. Schalke 04 not only has its own football school, but also cooperates with many local primary and middle schools. 04 Transport seedlings.

Zhang Yuan met Joseph here. Joseph was sent to the Schalke 04 football school by Hoffman before, where he received more professional training. Of course, his studies will definitely be affected to a certain extent. Generally speaking, the problem is not big , Regarding whether Joseph is playing football, Zhang Yuan can't see through the future.

Maybe just like him and Gu Lin, Gu Lin got involved with football earlier than him, but he stayed abroad, but Gu Lin didn't. He didn't think his level was much higher than Gu Lin's.

Looking at Joseph now, he feels that Joseph is much better than when he was twelve or thirteen years old. Maybe Joseph will be able to become a professional player one day, Zhang Yuan thought.

The match between Schalke 04 and Hoffenheim was held as scheduled. Schalke 04 drew tenaciously against Hoffenheim in the away game. If you don’t try, you won’t know. If you try, you will be surprised. Hoffenheim’s survival is not defense It's about offense. They have scored 41 goals before the halfway mark. This is a remarkable number. It is the team with the most goals in the halfway distance of the Bundesliga team, more than Bayern Munich. It is not accidental to rank first.

The front trident of Demba Ba, Obasi and Ibisevic played a huge role under the training of Rangnick. Ibisevic scored 18 goals in the half of the game, leaving Zhang Yuan behind. , Grafite, Hermes, Dzeko and a group of people dominate the show. Many bookmakers have adjusted the odds of Ibisevic's shooter to the lowest. There is no way. There has not been such a high-efficiency shooter for many years. up.

Kuranyi finally broke the scoring shortage with this game. He received a pass from Farfan and scored an equalizer goal in this game, earning three points for Schalke 04, but this goal The ball is irrelevant. The lack of goals in front not only made Buskens and Mulder dissatisfied with him, but even the fans urged him to leave quickly!

Zhang Yuan will come out of the suspension in the second half of the season, and he will definitely return to the bench. Who knows this.

打完半程，沙尔克04取得了8胜6平3负的成绩，积30分，排在第六位，霍芬海姆积35分排在第一位，后面依次是柏林赫塔33分、汉堡33分、拜仁慕尼黑32分、勒沃库森32分。

Schalke 04 was fortunate to overwhelm their rival Dortmund. They scored 29 points in the half, only one point less than Schalke 04.

The end of the half-time competition means that everyone will have a holiday again. To be honest, this half-time is indeed too tiring, which is very tiring for the main players. The winter break is here and everyone just needs to slow down.

The winter break of the Bundesliga may be the longest among the major leagues, and the holidays will naturally be longer, thanks to the fact that they only have 18 teams.

The Bundesliga has always talked about expanding the army, because the other major leagues have 20 teams, but this idea has been opposed by the strong teams headed by Bayern Munich. Why do they object? A few more games should pay more money. This is logically a good thing.

But the account is not calculated in this way. The number of teams increases and uncertain factors increase, which is not conducive to the establishment of advantages in the league by strong teams. Teams like Bayern Munich naturally hope that the domestic league will be as easy as possible, which is more beneficial to their players. Being able to rest well allows the club to focus on the European war, and the Champions League is better than anything else.

This is the theory of strong teams. Everyone wants to increase the number of teams. Only the middle and lower reaches of the team really want to increase the number of Bundesliga teams. Some are because there are more games and more income, and some are because there are more weak teams. Work hard to avoid relegation every season, and so on.

But the arms can't twist the thighs, and the Bundesliga still has 18 teams!
Before the holiday, the Schalke 04 club held a dinner. This kind of family members can be brought. Zhang Yuan has no family members, and Mai Xuewen has already left. Both Zhang Yuan and Digan attended the Christmas dinner alone.

The management of Schalke 04 this season is very chaotic. In the previous season, the general manager Muller had a lot of power to speak, but with Rutten's defeat in Maicheng, his position was in jeopardy. The current acting head coach Booth Kens and Mulder actually have a close relationship with him. The three were once teammates of Schalke 04.

These two people were a bit unlucky after they took office. Zhang Yuan was banned for 5 games. Rutten led Schalke to too many draws, and the Champions League qualifying life was hanging by a thread, so get out of class. It can only be said that there are fewer draws, but they have already lost 2 games, and Ruteng has only lost [-] games. The standings are similar to when Ruteng was in office.

The only good thing is that they finally led Schalke 04 to break through the group stage and qualify smoothly. It is hard to say whether Buskens and Mulder will continue to lead the team in the second half of the season.
