Legendary Road

In the training ground, the Dortmund players were training with passing and cutting the ball. Kyle kicked the ball and gave it to Rosicky. However, Rosicky, who has always been handy with this, made a mistake. The ball slipped by.

"Sorry." Rosicky smiled apologetically, and kicked the ball back to Kyle, "Sebastian, let's do it again."

Kyle spread his hands and said he didn't care, but Van Marwijk, who was standing on the sidelines of the court, frowned - this was not Rosicky's due level.

After observing for a few minutes, Van Marwijk noticed that Rosicky was obviously absent-minded on the training ground, so he called Yan Jing, who was staring at another group of training, to his side.

Yan Jing trotted over: "Belt, what's wrong?"

"Yan, has Rosicky been in this state in recent days?" Yan Jing was in charge of Rosicky's group training a few days ago, and Van Marwijk wanted to know about this situation, "Frequent mistakes in passing and receiving in training , and always distracted.”

"Uh, yes..." Yan Jing said honestly, "I also asked him about it yesterday, but he told me that it was because he didn't have a good rest at night, and it was nothing serious."

"Didn't you rest well?" Van Marwijk, who has several years of coaching experience, didn't think it was that simple. He said calmly, "Yan, pay more attention to the news about the transfer window in the newspapers in the past few days."

Yan Jing didn't understand what Van Marwijk meant at first, but when he was reading the sports section of the new issue of "Bild" early the next morning, he finally figured out why Rosicky was always distracted .

"Rosicky's agent secretly met with Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger in London, does he want to join the Premier League giants in winter? "

Yan Jing looked further down, and it was really not groundless. Although the photo below is not very clear, it is still easy to distinguish the two people above. It is indeed Rosicky's manager and Wenger.

The winter break of the Bundesliga is coming soon, and at the same time, the transfer windows of major leagues are opening. After half a season of fighting, many teams need some supplements to their lineups more or less. The good show of poaching and anti-poaching is officially released.

Last season, Arsenal won the championship with a record unbeaten record by a group of players such as Highbury King Henry, Ice Prince Bergkamp and Iron Waist Vieira, which is talked about by Arsenal fans.

However, the form of the Premier League this season has changed dramatically. With the new European champion coach Mourinho taking over Chelsea, he led the Blues far ahead in the standings, pulling Arsenal and Manchester United, who were always at the top of the list in the past. dismounted.

The dense schedule of the Premier League makes the personnel reserves of each team extremely important. With Vieira's injury, Wenger will also have insufficient manpower in the midfield formation. The Spanish teenager Cesc Fabregas, who appeared on the stage in Ella, completed the task relatively well, but after all, he was inexperienced and immature.

At this time, it is not surprising that Wenger will focus on Rosicky, who is in Dortmund's financial crisis.

Rosicky's gorgeous and elegant playing style can be seamlessly connected with Arsenal. Yan Jing even feels that if Rosicky really goes to Arsenal, it will not be a problem for him to integrate into the team.

But the point is that Rosicky is so important to the current Dortmund. He is the offensive engine of Dortmund now. If he is sold, the team's tactics must be completely overthrown and restarted.

The top management of the club should have known about this earlier than him, Yan Jing sighed, now he can't get involved in Dortmund's transfer affairs at all, although Rosicky only went to Arsenal this summer according to his knowledge, but Since Watzke can take office a few months in advance, why can't Rosicky go to Arsenal in advance?

The next morning, the whole Dortmund team was training with only Rosicky. After Yan Jing and Van Marwijk inquired, they found out that Rosicky went to Zorc's office with his agent, and they didn't know they were talking. something.

Most of the other team members had also seen the news in the newspaper, and were quietly muttering about it in the background. It was Van Marwijk's extra training warning that made them shut up.

When Rosicky returned to the training ground, everyone's eyes were on him. He stepped onto the lawn silently and did not respond to the matter.

At this time, another person asked Van Marwijk to go to Zorc's office, obviously having something to say.

Yan Jing urged the team members who had been looking over there to quickly devote themselves to training: "What are you looking at, I like watching so much, why don't you go with me?"

----------

The jury is still out on Rosicky, but the Bundesliga continues.

In the last two games before the winter break, Dortmund scored one draw and one loss.

Especially the 0:1 loss at home to Schalke 04 made Dortmund fans feel itchy when they saw the smiling faces of their rivals.

A large number of security personnel are devoted to maintaining order, for fear that if they are not careful, the fans of these two teams who have been hostile for a long time will make some noise on impulse.

And Dortmund received Arsenal's offer of 400 million euros for Rosicky on the first day of the opening of the winter transfer window, but it goes without saying that the club is absolutely impossible to accept such an offer-they originally sent Rosicky from Sparnia Prague It cost a full 1450 million euros when he arrived in Dortmund.

Even if it is to take advantage of Dortmund's financial crisis, it can't be too outrageous, right?Zorc rejected the ridiculously low offer without even thinking about it, and asked someone to reply to Arsenal that "Rosicky is not for sale in Dortmund."

The Arsenal transfer department doesn't take this seriously. Dortmund has become like this, can you still have non-sale items in the team?If you think you don't have enough money, just say so.

Arsenal's second offer, Wenger raised the price to 600 million euros in one breath, while Dortmund has already begun to waver.

Rosicky's real worth is definitely more than 600 million euros. If he practice for another year or two, it is not impossible to sell him to 2000 million euros.But as the saying goes, the long distance cannot quench the near thirst. What Dortmund urgently needs is the current 600 million, not the future 2000 million. If they can get this money at this time of extreme shortage of funds...

Watzke even began to seriously think about the feasibility of this deal and where Arsenal's bottom line is, but Van Marwijk took the initiative to find him after hearing about it, which shows how important Rosicky is to the current Dortmund. Without Rosicky, their record may have plummeted on this basis.

Coupled with Zork's persuasion, Watzke gave up his plan to sell Rosicky in the winter.

But Rosicki's personal attitude is still willing to stay in Dortmund.

So the next day, Dortmund, whose attitude has been ambiguous, asked the spokesperson of the media department to publicly refute the rumors, claiming that Rosicky could not leave in the winter, which reassured many fans who had been worried about this matter.

The first team was disbanded for the holiday, and the youth team under Dortmund also had a lot of rest time

Yan Jing's long-planned travel plan was finally not disturbed by other emergencies, but he still couldn't do without football. After looking at it on the map of Europe, he still planned to go to England Stay in London for a few days.

Why do you want to ask?The answer is simple, with so many Premier League teams in London and no winter break, it's always good to go and see the games, especially Arsenal's match against Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on December 12.

Yan Jing accidentally revealed his travel plan to Gotze. Unexpectedly, the little fat man immediately quarreled that he also wanted to go to the Emirates Stadium to watch the football, and asked his mother to call Yan Jing to express his consent the next day.

Yan Jing hung up the phone and looked at the smug kid: "How did you convince your mother to agree?"

"It's not difficult." Gotze showed a bright smile on his face, "Mom, she is enlightened, isn't she just going to London? I told her that there is a boss who will take me and she nodded."

"...Does your mother trust me that much?"

"I often praise you in front of my mother, and my mother thinks you must be a good person."

"So I should thank you for speaking well for me?"

"Well, you don't need to thank me." Gotze looked serious, "Boss, as long as you pay for the ticket for me, that's fine."

Come on, tickets to Arsenal's home games are ridiculously expensive, okay?

Hearing this, Yan Jing immediately stretched out his hand and slapped Gotze's chubby face fiercely, and let go of his hand in satisfaction after the other party begged for mercy many times: "Okay, just treat it as an early Christmas gift from me." Gift."

Although Yan Jing made him breathless, after hearing Yan Jing's promise, Gotze only knew how to be silly: "Yeah!"

------------

Yan Jing took Gotze to London by plane two days in advance. Yan Jing, who planned to book tickets online, found that he came too late. Ridiculously expensive.

So Yan Jing was fully prepared to be knocked out by the scalpers, and stuffed enough cash in his wallet.

The flight from Dortmund to London is just over an hour away, and Gotze looked extremely excited on the plane, which was his first time traveling with someone other than his parents.

"Boss, this is my first time going to England!"

"Me too." Yan Jing turned his head, "Mario, is there anything in London that particularly attracts you?"

Goetze thought for a while with his face propped up, and then said: "Actually, it doesn't feel too special... I just want to go to the Emirates Stadium and Stamford Bridge to see it for myself. I can't enjoy watching it on TV, although I don't think it's as good as it is." The atmosphere of Westphalia.”

The atmosphere at the Westfalenstadion is extremely rare in Europe, and anyone who has personally experienced the frenzied atmosphere in the South Stand will agree with this.

"Then who will you support more in the game the day after tomorrow?"

"Arsenal!"

"Why? Chelsea are now the top team in the Premier League."

Gotze replied without thinking: "But Arsenal's offense should be smoother and more gorgeous. Chelsea's games can always make me sleepy. Don't you think so, boss?"

Yan Jing responded with a smile: "That's true, but as a coach, of course I like the style of play that can make the team win. Sometimes in our opinion, Arsenal's overly complicated passing and cutting cooperation is not enough. Not as effective as Chelsea's quick counter-attacks."

"But that's really boring..."

"People who watch it will find it boring, but people who kick it don't think so." Yan Jing saw that Gotze's hair was a little messy, so he turned sideways and stretched out his hands to smooth it, "Mario, actually you didn't notice that you Have you played too many 'boring' games?"

A few strands of hair were pinned from the front of the forehead to the back of the ears by Yan Jing, and the slight itchiness that swept across the forehead made Goetze squint his eyes, then recalled the games he played in the past, and found that what Yan Jing said was true , the happiest thing on the court is not to play a beautiful match, but to win the final victory.

"By the way, boss." Gotze suddenly remembered that he and Royce planned to join the U15 team through selection after the winter break, "Do you think my current ball skills have a starting position in U15?"

"I don't think it's a big problem." After Yan Jing finished answering, he asked the reason, "Why?"

"It's like this, Marco and I want to join the U15s... just after this winter break."

When Yan Jing heard this, he began to seriously consider this issue. It is really inappropriate to let the 15-year-old Royce stay in the U14 team. In fact, in terms of pure ball skills, Royce is already capable of gaining a foothold in the U16 team. Heels, and it is also very necessary for him to strengthen his physical confrontation in actual combat.

But Gotze is only 12 years old. Is it too overpowering to join the U15 like this?

"Mario, why are you in such a hurry to go to the senior echelon?" Yan Jing still planned to ask the reason first, "I think it is most suitable for you to play in the U14 team now."

"Uh..." Getze began to hesitate when he heard Yan Jing's question, "Actually, it's nothing... just want to go..."

Yan Jing saw Gotze's embarrassed expression and knew that this was not a real reason. He put on a hurt expression: "Oh, Mario, I can't even tell you about this?"

"no!"

Gotze denied it outright, but he was extremely entangled in his heart-because Yan Jingdu had become Dortmund's assistant coach, and he was really embarrassed to say such an illogical reason that he was still playing U14!

Yan Jingyou's black eyes were staring at Getze all the time, so that Getce blushed inexplicably, turned his head and said in a muffled voice.

"Anyway, I want to continue playing under you soon..."

Unexpectedly, it would be this reason, Yan Jingle: "Pfft, did Coach Richard treat you badly?"

"No, coaching others is very good." Gotze still has a good impression of Richard, a person who values ​​him, "I can't say why, but boss, I just want to play under you. I am in U13 Happier playing football, it must be because of you."

"Ah, if I really become the head coach of Dortmund one day, as long as you are of sufficient level and old enough to sign a professional contract, I will definitely draw you to the first team." Yan Jing said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Mario, what do you think?"
