Section 144: The King of Efficiency, the Son of Destiny and the Limits of Humanity (4)
Schlapner and Jamie hurried back to their base camp, Tübingen, to arrange Wang Ai’s speeches for the next month or so and deal with sponsors. Wang Ai received a call from Lao Gao, saying that the top ten
The first game of the tournament was on June 3. Although the opponent was Oman, Wang Ai had to play because it was at home. At that time, Wang Ai might have just finished the league less than 20 days ago.
Knowing that Lao Gao had finally overcome the "coaching change crisis" and now needed a strong victory to ward off doubts, Wang Ai naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
After talking about this matter, Lao Gaocai asked with concern about Wang Ai's current situation. Only through Lao Gaoyi's description of Wang Ai did he know that the domestic media had also reacted at this time, and they were also furious, with all kinds of rhetoric flying all over the sky.
"Steady, you must have adapted to it over the years, right? Don't take this mess to heart." Lao Gao advised: "Although it is a mess at this time, it is not much worse than us winning the World Cup, but you still have to
Keep it simple and simple.”
"Well, I have handed over the work of dealing with the media and let the surroundings be quiet."
"Yes, actually it doesn't matter if you lose." Lao Gao laughed: "You have Olympic champions and World Cup champions, and they only have professional achievements. Even if they lose this city, they still haven't caught up with you in terms of historical status.
, and may never catch up with you. As for business matters, you should believe in the fans in our country. They are the most pure and sincere group of people. No matter how others try to please them, as long as you are here, they will follow you.
As for those who are yellow-skinned and white-hearted, you can’t win them in the first place, so there’s no need to regret them.”
Wang Ai laughed and breathed a sigh of relief: "Director Gao, your eloquence has improved?"
"Ha!" Lao Gao laughed, feeling relaxed and jokingly said: "After that incident, I found that it was really a disadvantage not to be able to quarrel, so I bought a speech book and practiced it. It was okay. I will deal with reporters in the future.
Something to make it easier."
After chatting for a while and about to hang up the phone, Lao Gao reminded: "I have made some refinements in terms of tactics, and I have also selected some players, and I have sent them to your email. You can take a look when you are free.
The law and pattern have not changed, you can use your brain to adjust it."
Wang Ai agreed, opened the mailbox and downloaded the information sent by Lao Gao and took a quick look at it. Sure enough, the team members were still the same group from the World Cup 2 years ago, but the veterans were replaced by a few younger ones, who were also familiar faces. As for tactics, Lao Gao
It is obvious that he has accepted Bielsa's tactical ideas, and many traces of Bielsa's small-scale cooperation ideas can be seen.
As expected, Wang Ai closed his eyes and used his mind to adjust to the new tactics and "new" teammates according to Lao Gao's request. It's hard to say for the teammates, but the "run-in" in terms of tactics went very smoothly. Now Wang Ai has played more than ten professional league games.
In 2007, he had followed this national team since childhood, and the tactical system was formed bit by bit in his eyes, so it was not a big problem.
Putting aside these trivial matters, Wang Ai maintained a very quiet home environment. All reporters' topics about the "Super Giant War" were entrusted to his press officer. He trained, went to school, trained, and trained every day, trying to maintain a simple life.
environment to prevent the mind from being shocked by any news.
Lao Gao's words made Wang Ai relax, but he still had to fight for what should be fought for. The opponents were already particularly excited, and Wang Ai's current situation was just like the old saying: If you don't advance, you will retreat.
Three days later, Bayern faced Mainz at home. Because there were still three days before the Champions League match against Real Madrid, Heynckes made a lot of rotations. The center was replaced by Olic, the attacking midfielder was replaced by Wang Ai, and Muller was on the right.
Road, Alaba on the left, Schweinsteiger and Tymoshchuk behind, then Rafinha, Boateng, Badstuber, Contento and Neuer.
Strictly speaking, the defense is not bad. Xiaozhu and Tymoshchuk are both absolute main players. They only left the main lineup because of injury or illness. The back line is the main force except for one Contento, and the goalkeeper is even more important.
Don't mention it, so it's mainly the frontcourt, mainly attacking.
Before the game, Heynckes made it very clear that Wang Ai had the final say on how to attack in this game. His teammates on the training ground didn't say anything wrong after hearing this. In fact, Wang Ai focused on the league and put aside
In the competition with the other two big heads, the teammates noticed it before the media. After all, only the players know the players best, and many players in the team, such as Robben, Ribery, Gomez, and Muller, are originally
A superstar may be somewhere between a superstar and a football star. You can understand Wang Ai's choice just by thinking about it a little bit.
Of course it was a little uncomfortable at first: Why are we fighting so hard for the team, and all you think about is yourself?
But as time went by, I figured it out, especially after Wang Ai broke the record, they were also proud of you. The gap between Wang Ai and them, especially in terms of goals this season, has been as big as that of an average shooter throughout the season.
The number of goals scored, that is to say, in the current Bundesliga scorer list, a top ten scorer can be inserted between the first and second.
Such a disparity has made shooters, including Gomez, feel despair and have given rise to deep admiration.
After all, the football field is not an officialdom. It is not that complicated and dirty, but much simpler and simpler.
Unexpectedly winning the support of his teammates, Wang Ai was in high spirits. In the game that started at 6:30 pm on April 14th at the Allianz Arena, Wang Ai did not pursue personal goals from the beginning, but was very patient in the frontcourt.
Organize offensive attacks to repay the trust and support of coaches and teammates.
After he re-realized that he gave up high-frequency running because of "laziness" at Bayern, he used a lot of high-frequency running skills in this game, so that he often dribbled the ball in the center with multiple Mainz defenders on the outside.
But they didn't dare to go up, they didn't dare to leave, they could only surround him as if to protect him, which was a ridiculous situation.
This kind of scene is more common in La Liga, specifically in Barcelona, more in Messi and Iniesta, and is very rare in the Bundesliga and Wang Ai. This is because the defensive players really can't steal the ball from the offensive players, and
The helpless choice of not daring to use foul tactics. As for not daring to foul, for the two Barcelona players, it was mainly because they were afraid of diving, while for Wang Ai, it was because he was afraid of his direct free kick.
In the words of the equally excited host He Wei: "Little Wang'er rides alone into the formation, so majestic!"
Under such a situation, a big victory is the inevitable result.
