Don't think too ambitiously about this or that. When Su Yun coached Sunderland, his dream of winning the championship was the domestic cup championship. When he started coaching Chelsea, his goal was the top league championship.
It was not until Abramovich came to Chelsea that Su Yun dared to imagine winning the Champions League.
Very pragmatic.
For Su Yun, it is useless to brag without any basis. It is also very undesirable to dream too high and dream too far.
Rebuilding, rebuilding is a very difficult situation.
It took Su Yun three months to slowly stabilize Dortmund's results...
When he came to Dortmund, Su Yun's idea was very simple. Lay the foundation in the first year, and it would be better if he could get a Champions League spot. In the second year, he could compete for the league championship. If not, he could also compete for the league championship in the third year.
.
The breakthrough in the Champions League came in the third or fourth year.
This is Su Yun's initial thought.
But when Zorc asked this, Su Yun began to think a lot.
"Su, is it possible for us to win the championship?"
Seeing Su Yun pondering, Zorc finally asked the question he wanted to ask.
When Watzke and Zorc formulated their ten-year plan, they hoped to build a championship team in four to five years. But after inviting Su Yun, even if they dared to imagine, they could only build a championship team in three or four years.
This is forced by the situation.
In order to win the championship, Dortmund worked hard to expand their army and prepare for war. In the end, they got themselves involved, and Dortmund was just one step away from going bankrupt. Therefore, Watzk and Zorc could not help but be careless.
The same is true even if a famous coach like Su Yun is invited.
They are very calm.
They believe in Su Yun, but they also know that Su Yun is not God. They can win with just a wave of their hands.
So they were very cautious at the beginning of the season.
Dortmund's state was unstable at the beginning.
Watzke and Zorc didn't dare to think too much. But after these rounds, Su Yun was not the only one to discover the problem with the standings. Even Watzke and Zorc also discovered it.
Psychological itch.
It really makes my heart itch.
People like Zorc who have experienced the glory of Dortmund are very eager to win the championship.
Hearing Zorc's words, Su Yun was completely stunned.
champion?
The Bundesliga is completely different from what I thought.
The eleven rounds of the Bundesliga are over. Because the Bundesliga has only eighteen teams, the Bundesliga has only thirty-four rounds in total. It is completely different from the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A.
That's four games missing.
It can be said that the Bundesliga is now one-third of the way through.
Dortmund is still ranked fourth in the Bundesliga, only six points away from the top spot, only two goals behind.
Su Yun is a championship coach.
Over the years, he has won more than twenty championships, large and small. The pursuit of championships has penetrated into Su Yun's blood.
That's how people are.
Su Yun had not thought about this issue before, but after Zorc said it, Su Yun had to think about it.
Bundesliga champion?
That's a championship.
Su Yun did not answer directly.
But I really thought about it for a long time.
Seeing that Su Yun had not spoken for a long time, Zorc did not interrupt. He sat quietly next to Su Yun and looked at the information that Su Yun had not compiled.
That's the opponent's information.
Zorc is a sporting director who attaches great importance to information.
He looks at the player information sent by scouts every day. On average, he looks at at least ten player information a day. He is very diligent because he knows that Dortmund doesn't have much money now and can only buy cheap players.
.
Among these player information, the players he is optimistic about will be sent to Su Yun.
Therefore, Zorc attaches great importance to data analysis.
But the information Su Yun used when examining his opponents was completely different from what Zorc had seen from other coaches before.
This is the profile of Hamburg players.
Su Yun collected the information very carefully. Zorc discovered that each player's running distance, running characteristics, and even each player's small movements were included.
Some player characteristics that are easily overlooked have been carefully marked by Su Yun.
Zorc has been in Dortmund for thirty years. Twenty years were spent playing football and ten years as Dortmund's top management. In the process, he has worked with many coaches.
There have been figures like Hitzfeld and Sammer among them. But this is the first time Zorc has seen a coach pay so much attention to his opponent before the game.
Such a situation of collecting opponents.
And all of them have been subjected to detailed numerical analysis.
Zorc did not disturb Su Yun, but he was very shocked in his heart.
No wonder.
No wonder Su Yun can become a world-class coach and win so many honors. Sure enough, there is no success without reason in the world, everyone who succeeds has his reasons.
"Michelle..."
It took Su Yun a long time to come back to his senses. He said slowly: "I really never thought about the Bundesliga championship. I also never expected this situation in the Bundesliga standings."
"Let's see first. The young people in the team can't withstand the pressure yet. They are still too young. Don't let them think about this kind of problem. Let's wait until the winter break."
Zorc nodded.
Although Su Yun did not have any rhetoric, Su Yun's words gave Zorc more confidence.
If Su Yun lies, it will make Zorc suspicious.
"Well, Su, if you have any requests, just ask."
"Okay. But everything is fine with the team now."
…………
Did Zorc's words have any impact on Su Yun?
have.
And it's big.
The champion. The Bundesliga champion is like a ghost lingering in Su Yun's mind. It cannot go away for a long time.
Want a championship.
Want the Bundesliga title.
Destroyed teams like Hamburg and Hertha Berlin.
Then sprint to the championship.
This thought has already occupied Su Yun's mind.
Unfortunately, something happened to the team before Su Yun could figure it out. The right midfielder Su Yun relied on very much this season, Blaszczykowski, known as the "Polish Figo", injured his waist during training.
It's not a serious injury.
But you also need to take a break for a month and a half.
Blaszczykovsky is too fast. Players with such speed can easily get injured.
There are not many players in football who are as fast as Henry and don't have any major physical problems.
Blaszczykovsky rested for more than three months last season due to injuries. Unexpectedly, he was injured again this season.
This made Su Yun quite angry.
What Dortmund currently lacks the most is two wing players. One of Dortmund's two wing players is Grosskreutz and Blaszczykovski.
Apart from them, there is no one who can replace them.
I didn't expect Blaszczykovsky to be injured now.
So unlucky.
A month is not long.
But it was still too long for Dortmund.
This is a matter of bench thickness.
I think back when Su Yun was at Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Juventus, whether any talented player could play or not depended on Su Yun's face. Because there were too many good players.
With one the other players must be benched.
It was really luxurious at the time.
What Su Yun had to consider was how to balance their playing time. But when they arrived at Dortmund, they were troubled by the lack of players.
But not in Dortmund.
On the contrary, there are not enough good players in Dortmund.
Su Yun thought of many ways. Just like Klinger, he can also play on the wing, but his strength is not good. Su Yun can advance Dede and then let Grosskreutz move to the right.
They are all methods.
However, Su Yun still felt that it was not safe.
After thinking about it, Su Yun stepped towards the youth team.
"Su, Xi Ke. Why did you think of coming here?"
Preuss saw Su Yun coming. He opened his arms and gave Su Yun a hug. Preuss is now the youth team coach, a teacher and a scout.
People are very enthusiastic.
In the youth team and the players are on the same page, all the young players like Preuss.
Seeing Preuss's exaggerated performance, Su Yun also exaggerated: "My coach Preuss, the purpose of my coming is very simple. Come and see our talented new stars."
"Who are you taking? Marco? Mario?"
Preuss also knew about Blaszczykovsky's injury.
So I asked Su Yun.
Su Yun watched the young players training on the training ground and said to Preuss: "Marco Mario is too young. I don't want to encourage him. Let Mario train more in the youth team."
Preuss nodded. But he quickly said: "Su, to be honest, Marco should stay in the youth team for a few more months. It's still a bit early to bring him to the first team now."
Su Yun smiled bitterly.
"There's nothing I can do about it. You know, I'm short of people right now."
After hearing Su Yun's words, Preuss also sighed.
The thickness of Dortmund's bench is very poor, and Pruss also knows this. Now Su Yun must have no choice but to transfer Reus to the first team.
Young players have actually discovered Su Yun.
Everyone was refreshed.
What is their purpose of playing here?
Isn't it just to be able to enter the Dortmund first team one day? Now that Su Yun has come, the purpose is obvious. It must be to promote a few people to the first team.
Everyone was lively during the training. Su Yun sat aside and watched their training and laughed. Dortmund's youth training is actually really good. However, most of these young players are destined not to gain a foothold in Dortmund's first team.
However, Su Yun believes that most people can still play football in professional football.
After the training, Preuss began to lecture.
But the young players' attention was obviously not on Preuss. They were all looking at Su Yun secretly. They were all waiting for Preuss to finally announce who Su Yun was interested in.
Who is likely to make the first team?
Preuss also knows what young players think. So that’s it.
Then he looked at the eager young player and said, "Marco, you stay."
Everyone was disappointed when they heard this.
Really disappointed.
Only Reus was very excited. Gotze was also a little disappointed, but Gotze knew that it was difficult for him to appear in the first team lineup at his age, so he and other players left the training ground frustrated.
Su Yun stepped forward and looked at Royce.
Stronger.
Much stronger than four months ago.
"coach."
Royce called Su Yun excitedly.
Su Yun nodded.
"Okay, not bad. Come with me, young man." (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go and read.)
