It can be said that no Dortmund player has thought about this word.
No one dares.
Can Dortmund win the Bundesliga title?
Even they themselves don't believe it.
But that's what young players are like.
When Netzer said that Dortmund could compete for the championship, although Dortmund's top management and Su Yun chose to deal with it coldly, this matter caused great fluctuations for young players.
champion?
Among the current young players in Dortmund, almost few have championship experience.
Who has the most championship experience in Dortmund now?
It must be Williams.
Williams has more championships than Su Yun. After leaving Chelsea, Su Yun only had one Serie A championship and one Italian Cup championship. But Williams won the Premier League championship, FA Cup championship, and League Cup championship one after another.
The Community Shield Cup champion, after all, has once again rounded off the major and minor championships in England...
Except for Williams, Kyle and Dede have seen championships.
But Kyle was just a mixed bag of champions.
When Dortmund won the Bundesliga championship in the 20102 season, Kyle joined Dortmund in the second half of the season.
Contribution is limited.
Far less than the contribution of Rosicky, Amoruso, and Jankoler's trident. And in defense, the contribution of Lehmann, Vaughns, and Metzelder is far greater than that of Kyle.
Except for a few of them, people like Cavani, Mata, Reus, Grosskreutz, Shaheen, and Hummels have never tasted the top league championship.
It is even the first time for several players to play in the top league this season. For example, Mata, Reus, and Grosskreutz have appeared in the top league for the first time.
For them, top league titles are a rarity.
I had never thought about it before. But when I saw the standings, I realized that Dortmund also had a chance.
My heart started to itch.
How could they, a group of young people, not desire a top league championship.
It's a pity that it's bad for young people to think too much.
If you think too much, you will lose your original sharpness and perseverance. You will start to be timid and start to look forward and backward.
In the fourteenth round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund faced a strong team.
Wolfsburg.
Wolfsburg is a relatively wealthy club in the Bundesliga. For example, they bought Barzagli from Palermo this season. Wolfsburg spent 14 million euros on a defender.
There are absolutely very few people in the Bundesliga who dare to spend money like this.
Young people are too impetuous.
I was confused by the talk of championship. Dortmund's original style of play was not shown at all during the game, and the collective counterattack in the frontcourt failed to be consistent.
Instead, they were suppressed by Wolfsburg.
Wolfsburg's Bosnian shooter Dzeko was very active during the game.
Although Williams has strengthened his defense against him, he still failed to guard against Dzeko when the team lost all power.
Because the frontcourt counterattack failed, Williams and Hummels almost faced Wolfsburg's offensive players head-on. This made any defense very dangerous.
Fifty-six minutes into the second half, Dzeko caught the ball ahead of Williams and poked the ball in.
In the end, Dortmund, which has been in full form recently, lost to Wolfsburg 0-1 at home.
Su Yun shook his head.
This is the biggest problem for young people.
The status fluctuates.
It is easy to be influenced by the outside world.
Dortmund's players can be regarded as talented players with outstanding talents. However, they are inevitably influenced by the outside world. Including Shaheen, whose performance has become more and more stable recently, also performed very poorly in the game.
It should be said that they all wanted to win the game too much.
Young players need some strong desire to win, but if they fall into the idea of wanting to win the game too much, then big problems will arise.
Netzer of his nainai.
If you don't say a word, Dortmund may really be able to climb to the top of the standings in two or three rounds.
What young people in Dortmund need now is not too much attention, but to quietly accumulate experience in the game.
Su Yun really wanted to trample Netzer to death.
The topic of championships causes psychological turmoil for young players.
It's really turbulent.
Soon the fifteenth round of the Bundesliga will begin.
Dortmund faces Monchengladbach at home.
Monchengladbach is a long-standing strong team in the Bundesliga. There was a period of time when it was a strong team that could compete directly with Bayern. At that time, Monchengladbach had famous players such as Netzer and Heynckes.
It's a pity that Monchengladbach is gone now too.
If we go by the previous state, there should be no problem in defeating Monchengladbach. But the mentality of the young people is wrong. Dortmund is stronger. Monchengladbach has more experience.
Because the performance of Dortmund players is unstable.
Dortmund did not beat Monchengladbach during the game.
Instead it was just a 0-0 draw.
This made Su Yun very dissatisfied.
But Su Yun wasn't very angry. That's the case for young players.
When Su Yun used young talents on a large scale to build Dortmund, Su Yun had already thought about it. Even Su Yun's goal for this season was very simple.
The biggest goal is to get a Champions League spot.
It's just that the Bundesliga this season is too turbulent, and all kinds of monsters are coming out to cause trouble. The fact that there is no dominant team in the Bundesliga now gives Dortmund some possibility of winning the championship.
But after two games, the young players were completely affected.
As a result, at the end of the fifteenth round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund had seven wins, five draws and three losses. The points did not change much, only 26 points. It also stopped the pace of winning streak.
But it's not just Dortmund who is unlucky.
Bayer Leverkusen, which has been at the top of the Bundesliga standings, has a worse result than Dortmund.
Leverkusen may be the fate of the second-best player in the world.
In such a chaotic situation this season, Leverkusen stands out. Only Hoffenheim, a dark horse, keeps pace with him. Almost all German media update Leverkusen.
After all, Hoffenheim is a newly promoted team, right?
But Leverkusen let everyone down.
Unexpectedly, in the fourteenth round of the Bundesliga, when facing the weak Bielefeld, he was hit by two goals. There was no way to fight back in the whole game.
In the end, they lost to Bielefeld 2-0 away from home.
In the fifteenth round of the Bundesliga, Leverkusen faced Bayern Munich at home.
They were actually counterattacked by Bayern Munich. They lost to Bayern Munich 0-2 at home.
Therefore, Leverkusen's points are still 29 points. There is no change.
The best performer in these two rounds was Hoffenheim.
In the 14th round of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim defeated Cologne 3-1 away from home. In the 15th round of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim defeated Bielefeld 3-0 at home.
Two consecutive wins.
Hoffenheim's points reached 34 points.
Big dark horse.
Hoffenheim is already at the top of the Bundesliga standings. This time it is not with Bayer Leverkusen, but on its own. It has achieved the dark horse legend.
And Ibisevic, who was little-known before, is an unknown player who reached a World Cup in a match with Dortmund. This season, he is really killing people.
At the end of fifteen rounds, seventeen goals have been scored.
The real super killer.
To be honest, after Dortmund was rebuilt this season, it is actually thanks to Hoffenheim that the current score can be achieved. It is precisely because Hoffenheim has attracted everyone's attention that the current Dortmund is not impressive at all.
If Netzer hadn't come out and boasted, the German media's eyes would never have been on Dortmund.
Bayern Munich is also in good shape in these two rounds.
Two consecutive wins.
Among them, there was a game that directly defeated Leverkusen.
At the end of the fifteenth round of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich's score reached 33 points.
Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich led Dortmund by eight points and seven points.
But what they didn't know was that this actually calmed down the young people in Dortmund.
…………
It's not easy for young people.
Due to lack of experience and immature mentality, they are always influenced by the outside world. Some small things can also affect their performance.
This is the consequence of using young people on a large scale.
But there are benefits to young players too.
Have motivation.
Regardless of his professional attitude, veteran players will always be lazy during the game.
Not really lazy.
Instead, it will be analyzed based on the situation.
If they are young players, they will try their best to grab the ball even if they only have a 30 to 40 percent chance. But many old players will be lazy if they think they don't have much chance to grab the ball.
Old fried dough sticks.
Although there are differences in professional attitudes, not everyone is a veteran.
But most old players have this problem.
But young players are different.
fierce.
Very fierce.
He doesn't have the sophistication of old players.
The game is full of passion. It can explode no matter what opponent it faces.
After two consecutive rounds with one draw and one loss, Dortmund's performance dropped a lot. Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich dropped a lot of points. But instead, Dortmund's young players lost the burden of the championship.
Su Yun also comforted the young players.
champion?
It's still a luxury for us.
We should still play the game well and not think about illusory goals like championship.
Let the young players calm down.
In the 16th round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund faced Frankfurt at home.
Frankfurt is out of luck.
Because after Dortmund had one draw and one loss, they urgently needed a target to vent to. Frankfurt fell into this trap. Dortmund's performance was outstanding.
Cavani, who has not scored in two rounds, has performed extremely well.
Completed a hat-trick for the first time in Dortmund.
The number of goals this season has also reached eight.
It should be said that the defense of the Bundesliga is really not as good as that of Serie A. It is not even as good as the Premier League and La Liga. Because most of the defenders in the Bundesliga are tall and powerful defenders. Their biggest characteristic is that they lack the ability to turn around and chase back.
Facing Mata's fatal pass, the defense was very poor.
Just like Diego and Van der Vaart, they dominate the Bundesliga.
After adapting to the Bundesliga, Mata also stood out in the Bundesliga like Diego and Van der Vaart. His passing and shooting were all outstanding.
In this game, Cavani completed a hat trick of goals, while Mata completed a hat trick of assists.
By this time, Mata's assists this season had reached nine.
The real assist king.
He is the assist leader in the Bundesliga so far.
It wasn't just Cavani who broke out. Grosskreutz, who had been dormant for a long time, also received an assist from Mata on the right and scored a goal.
In addition to them, Shaheen also scored a goal from far away.
In the end, Dortmund swept Frankfurt 5-0 at home.
After playing Frankfurt, Dortmund will challenge Bielefeld away from home.
It's also very easy.
The young people in Dortmund are already red-eyed.
Bielefeld was destroyed again.
Two to zero.
Owomoyela opened the scoring, followed by Cavani's goal, raising his goal tally in the Bundesliga to nine.
After two consecutive victories, Dortmund's points have reached 32 points.
And Leverkusen, the former top team, has really declined.
His condition dropped again and again.
In the 16th round of the Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen faced Monchengladbach away. They were beaten 3-1 by Monchengladbach, which had been in decline for a long time.
Three consecutive losses.
Leverkusen dropped from first place to third place.
In the seventeenth round of the Bundesliga, Leverkusen's results did not improve.
Facing Cottbus, who are currently ranked 17th in the Bundesliga, they were unable to defeat their opponent at home. They achieved a 1-1 draw, with only 30 points.
Dortmund went ahead by two points.
Because Leverkusen suddenly dropped, Dortmund unexpectedly became third in the Bundesliga.
Leverkusen's form suddenly disappeared, which surprised many people. Is this still the strong Leverkusen at the beginning of the season?
The big dark horse Hoffenheim also encountered some setbacks.
First, they lost to rival Bayern Munich 1-2 in the 16th round of the Bundesliga, and then were tied 1-1 at home by Schalke 04.
Only one point was scored in two rounds.
Hoffenheim's points are 35 points.
However, Bayern Munich, which is in average form this season, exerted its strength at this time. First, it defeated the dark horse Hoffenheim at home, and then tied with Stuttgart 2-0 away from home.
In two rounds, we faced two powerful opponents and scored four points.
The points reached thirty-seven points.
For the first time this season, they became the top team in the Bundesliga.
Many people sighed at this time.
Overlord is still overlord.
Be it Leverkusen or Hoffenheim, they were ahead of Bayern Munich for almost half a season. However, they did not expect that at the end of half a season, Bayern Munich would still have the top spot in the Bundesliga.
Klinsmann has finally come back from his doubts at the beginning of the season.
You can breathe a sigh of relief.
The seventeenth round of the Bundesliga is over, and the half of the Bundesliga is over. Bayern once again became the half-time champion.
The big dark horse Hoffenheim took second place.
Dortmund, on the other hand, ranks third in the Bundesliga with 32 points. Leverkusen, which was strong at the beginning of the season, fell to fourth place.
With the end of the seventeenth round of games, the Bundesliga has also entered the winter break.
Su Yun also ushered in his first winter break in Germany. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go to read.)
