() The Bundesliga has fewer teams, so there are fewer games. Not to mention European games, in terms of domestic games alone, the Bundesliga teams have fewer games than other leagues.
Therefore, the Bundesliga's winter break is extremely long.
Like La Liga, Serie A's winter break is only more than 20 days at most. It doesn't seem long, but it's not short at all.
But not the Bundesliga.
The Bundesliga entered the winter break on December 13th, and the Bundesliga restarted on January 30th. And even the German Cup quarter-finals earlier than the Bundesliga was only on January 28th.
It can be said that the rest period exceeds forty days.
Nearly fifty days.
Too long.
If you do nothing, that's a really long vacation.
It was the first time that Su Yun enjoyed such a long period of rest. But in fact, Su Yun did not rest for that long. He rested for less than a month, and it was probably only about twenty days. Then...
The Borussia Dortmund player is back at the club again.
Because the winter break is different from the summer break. This is just a break in the middle, not a real holiday.
Moreover, Su Yun requires players to gather about a week earlier than other clubs.
Because Dortmund is different from other clubs.
There are many young people.
It's a team that's rebuilding.
Su Yun hopes to allow young players to gain more experience.
So Su Yun arranged a lot of warm-up matches. However, Su Yun never liked arranging strong opponents in warm-up matches, and usually they were weak opponents.
The main thing is to make them familiar.
Increase their tacit understanding.
Just when Su Yun was playing some warm-up matches, huge news suddenly came from the German football world.
From Hoffenheim, the dark horse that has attracted the most attention this season.
Ibisevic is the hottest striker in the Bundesliga this season.
There are still some outstanding shooters in the Bundesliga, such as Wolfsburg's Grafite and Dzeko, Stuttgart's Gomez, Leverkusen's Kiessling and Helmers.
Of course, including Bayern Munich's Toni and Klose.
These people are very sexy.
He is currently the most influential striker in the Bundesliga.
But they are not as hot as Hoffenheim's Ibisevic.
Like Hoffenheim, he shocked everyone this season. Like Hoffenheim, Ibisevic became the focus of everyone's attention when he first appeared in the Bundesliga.
But it's a pity.
A great misfortune befell him.
Hoffenheim was injured and fell to the ground during a warm-up match against Hamburg on January 16, 2009. The Hamburg hospital diagnosed Ibisevic and determined that it was a torn cruciate ligament, and he was completely reimbursed for the season.
Judging from the news, although it is only a preliminary diagnosis, it is true that Ibisevic has torn his cruciate ligament.
Very surprised.
A ruptured cruciate ligament will not only end the season, but will also have a huge impact on his future career. Because once this injury is diagnosed, it often takes eight months or even a year to recover.
It is a very serious injury for football players.
It’s almost a killer of athletes’ careers.
When the news came out, the German football world was filled with sighs.
Many people wanted to see Hoffenheim complete the "Miracle of Kaiserslautern". Even at the end of the first half of the Bundesliga season, some media said that Ibisevic might be able to break Muller's 40 goals in the Bundesliga that year.
record.
What a pity.
When Su Yun got the news, he shook his head and sighed.
It seems that Ibisevic really does not have a good life.
After so many years of wandering around in the lower leagues, he finally had a chance to break out. Unexpectedly, he got injured just after he became famous in the Bundesliga.
This is life.
What a pity.
But on the other hand, Su Yun was overjoyed.
Depend on.
Hoffenheim has become a dark horse this season. It is currently ranked second in the Bundesliga. Many players in Hoffenheim are outstanding. Including Demba Ba, Obasi, Gustavo, Sally
Horwich and Weiss are both outstanding.
But there is only one thing that stands out the most.
That is Ibisevic.
He scored 18 goals in 17 games in the first half of the season, which can be said to have attracted the attention of the entire Bundesliga football world.
Su Yun believes that without Ibisevic's goal, Hoffenheim would not be ranked so high.
Su Yun was really happy.
Regardless of Su Yun's high-sounding words in front of reporters, he sent blessings to Ibisevic. He also said that Ibisevic should recover quickly. He even said that although Hoffenheim lost its number one striker, Hoffenheim's strength was not that great.
Too much loss.
Su Yunduo is polite.
How well said.
But in fact, in his heart, Su Yun was not happy at all.
But quite happy.
Su Yun would like to sing loudly if possible.
Hoffenheim tells you to pretend!
You, a newly promoted team, managed to reach second place in the Bundesliga. Now that Ibisevic is gone, what do I think Hoffenheim will do in the second half of the season?
Hum hum hum.
Su Yun even thought that he could guess Hoffenheim's results.
It’s not like Su Yun has never led a dark horse like Hoffenheim. When Su Yun led Dagenham and Sunderland, he was also a famous dark horse in the Premier League.
It’s not easy to be a dark horse.
Not only are they worried about being suppressed by those traditional strong teams, but also only by maintaining the spirit of the dark horse to move forward throughout the season can the dark horse be completely eliminated.
But Hoffenheim now has its top scorer out for the season.
The energy went away instantly.
Now that it's gone, the dark horse is no longer a dark horse. The dark horse will soon lose its mystery and will soon reveal his original nature.
Hoffenheim is no longer his opponent.
Thinking about it, I really am not a good person.
Hoffenheim must be very distressed at this time because they lost their best shooter. Unexpectedly, I am here to gloat.
This is so inappropriate.
It's really inappropriate.
I'm a good person.
This shouldn't be the case.
Hahaha!
In fact, Su Yun was not the only one who was happy.
Other clubs in the Bundesliga celebrated behind closed doors.
Damn Hoffenheim.
Since it is a newly promoted team, it should be prepared to avoid relegation and dare to come and compete with strong teams for the honor of the championship.
I really don’t know how deep the sky is and how high it is.
Now there is retribution.
It depends on how you pretend to be in the future.
…………
Su Yun was happy while preparing for the German Cup match.
When Su Yun was in England, he used to criticize England's schedule. After arriving in Germany, Su Yun found that Germany's schedule also made people complain.
Look at how long January is. How can I not arrange it properly?
If not, you can put the German Cup at the front. You can shorten the rest time during the winter break.
Unexpectedly, the German Football Association put the German Cup quarter-finals on the 28th, and the 18th round of the Bundesliga on the 30th.
This is complete nonsense.
It's only two days apart.
This arrangement is no problem for some teams with good bench thickness. But for Dortmund, it is a very uncomfortable arrangement.
Dortmund's current bench thickness is very poor.
There are simply not many players who can replace the main force of the first team.
Blaszczykovski recovered. But he recovered alone, but Dortmund now has neither Kyle's substitute nor Shaheen's substitute.
There is no player who can replace Mata.
If the games are separated by some time, Su Yun can take care of both ends. But in two days, Su Yun has to make a choice.
League? German Cup?
Su Yun could grasp the importance without thinking.
For Su Yun, and of course Dortmund's senior management, it doesn't matter whether they have the German Cup or not. Because winning the German Cup won't have much effect on the current Dortmund.
His importance cannot be compared with the league. The league is fundamental.
When faced with a choice, Su Yun chose the league.
Su Yun arranged most of the substitute players in the German Cup match. But Dortmund's opponent Werder Bremen is different. Schaff has been with Werder Bremen for many years and his position in Werder Bremen is stable.
Now that the league is not playing well, it is almost impossible to qualify for the Champions League.
The German Cup is also an honor.
So all the main players came out.
Directly beat Dortmund 3-0.
Dortmund was very passive against Werder Bremen in the away game. Dortmund's substitutes were unable to defend against Werder Bremen's attack. The defense was partnered by Santana and Hummels.
Hummels played very awkwardly without the protection of Williams.
After Dortmund reached the round of 16 of the German Cup, they were eliminated by Werder Bremen.
Now Dortmund really only has the league left.
The UEFA Cup was eliminated by Udinese. The German Cup was eliminated by Werder Bremen.
I can only concentrate on playing in the league.
On January 30, 2009, Dortmund will challenge Bayer Leverkusen at home.
However, before the Dortmund game, Su Yun got good news. Hoffenheim, currently ranked second in the Bundesliga, took the lead and faced Monchengladbach at home.
Ibisevic's absence had a great impact on Hoffenheim. The powerful Hoffenheim was held to a one-to-one draw by Monchengladbach at home.
Su Yun was very happy.
Ibisevic's absence is beginning to affect Hoffenheim.
This is just the beginning.
Su Yun believes that Hoffenheim's dark horse will definitely reveal its true nature and will be destroyed soon.
Look, without Ibisevic, Hoffenheim couldn't even win Monchengladbach.
Su Yun's thoughts are now focused on his opponent in the next round.
Bayer Leverkusen.
In the first round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund challenged Leverkusen away. They relied on a counterattack to draw with Leverkusen with difficulty. But now it is different.
Leverkusen has been in outstanding form at the beginning of the season and has now fallen to fourth place in the Bundesliga.
At the end of the first half of the season, there were consecutive losses and draws.
How will their results be in the second half of the season?
Su Yun is not afraid at all now.
Hoffenheim will definitely fall behind, and it is becoming more and more likely that Dortmund will get a Champions League spot. Su Yun's biggest goal this season is to definitely win a Champions League spot.
Su Yun needs it.
And Dortmund needs the Champions League even more. Only the huge profits from the Champions League can allow Dortmund to truly get out of the economic crisis. (To be continued.. Welcome to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my biggest motivation.
