Chapter 38: How to be a captain
The next day, Schalke Club announced the 18-man squad for the Champions League, which instantly shattered the glasses of countless people, and many people had a premonition that a storm would start. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Most of the eighteen people were young people who had rarely played before, and the so-called main force of the previous iron fight was almost gone. And that's not all, what's really scary is that Jones, Sarpe, and Ko Junmin have been sent directly to the second team, and all three of them have been told that they can now find their next home.
The three of them were not convinced, and it was said that they had a big fight with Magath after getting the news, but Magath responded to them that as long as I was in Schalke you would never be in the first team, you were not a player at all, and what you did was to send this team to hell.
Outsiders don't know what happened inside, but the news from inside said that these three people were the ones who confided in the inside of the locker room to the outside world, and it was Gao Junmin who spoke to the outside.
The three of them packed up and left in front of everyone, and it didn't make sense for them to go to the second team to report or not, they were directly expelled.
Ai Huan walked to Gao Junmin's side and glanced at him, suddenly sighed and said, "I have never understood why you hate me, but I hope you can remember what happened today, and don't be unclear about who the real ace is in the future." ”
Gao Junmin sneered, "Do you think you can force me to death? I can't go back to China to play football, and I can make money, but you, you don't even have a country, do you have something to do, and I can afford it." ”
"I'll go back, you remember, I'll definitely go back, and when you're gone, I'll go back. This is the first time Ai Huan has spoken his heart, and almost every word has the smell of gunpowder.
"You?" Gao Junmin looked at Ai Huan hatefully, "You remember not to go back to the national team, otherwise I will make you die ugly!"
Ai Huan also laughed, "You really don't understand, you still don't understand, but it doesn't matter, you still have time to think about it slowly." ”
Sent three people away in one go, but that's not all, Magath also went crazy this time and directly threw Edu and Farfan out of the eighteen-man squad, plus the injured Metzeld, the starting lineup of the last game almost completely disappeared, and the eighteen people who were able to go to Lyon with the team were almost all young people in their twenties who rarely had the opportunity to play, and they were both excited and nervous in the face of such an important game.
On the plane to France, a group of young people got together in twos and threes, some chatting and some playing cards, after all, they were all young people, although they were nervous, but they were still in the mood to play for a while.
Ai Huan and Raul sat at the back and whispered, and their topic was still talking about the captain's question, "Raul, I really don't think I'm suitable for this position, I know that they are nervous, but I just don't know what to say to this group of people, how to relax their tense nerves, do you think I'm useless?"
Raul smiled, "Then you can tell them how you are not nervous, right?"
"Me?" Ai Huan stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "I really don't know how to be nervous, it's just that my heart is too big." By the way, you also captained Real Madrid as a teenager, how did you do that?"
"Tell you this?" Raul chuckled, "The truth is that I was the vice-captain all along, and the real captain was Hierro. He was a very good captain and did a lot of things for us until he retired and I started captaining. Speaking of this, Raul's tone suddenly became a little lower: "Actually, you asked me about how to be a competent captain, and you asked the wrong person, I actually did a bad job, until I left the dressing room of Real Madrid and never became the same as when I had Hierro, this is the truth." ”
Ai Huan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such a situation, and just as he wanted to speak, he suddenly heard Raul continue: "Actually, I see the shadow of Hierro in you, you are the kind of people who are angry and willing to fight hard for the team, I feel very comfortable and happy to be with people like you, which is why I like to stay with you as young as I am." You don't think you're the right captain right now, but you don't, but you haven't figured out how to do it. In the last game you left the captain's armband and that was a very panicked move within the team, otherwise no one would have come out against you because of this, in fact, you have always been a benchmark in the eyes of those young players. The only problem is that you can't turn anger into power yet, and it will take time to build up, but I'm sure you'll succeed. ”
"True or fake?" said Ai Huan with a wry smile.
Raul looked very serious: "Of course it's true." Actually, have you ever thought about it, if you tell all the team members about your anger, tell them what exactly you want them to do, and then let them work for a goal, so that they will not be confused, and they will work together with you, maybe this is your first step. ”
Ai Huan shook his head, "It's simple, but I always feel very difficult to do, after all, this game is the Champions League, we can't afford to lose, but why should the boss do it at this time? In fact, he could have waited for the end of this game to talk about it, maybe it will be better at that time." ”
"No way. This time it was Holtby who had been sleeping in the front row, who had been listening with his eyes closed, and when he heard this, he opened his eyes suddenly, "I am wondering that Dortmund will be faced immediately after a game, if the fans have to endure a defeat, it is also the Champions Cup, and the game against Dortmund is absolutely not to be lost." ”
Ai Huan and Raul glanced at each other, they were both outsiders, and neither of them knew much about the specific situation of Schalke, so they asked almost at the same time, "Do Dortmund and Schalke have a grudge?"
Holterby laughed, "There is not only a feud but also a feud, here it is the same as Milan, Roma, Madrid derby, we are two teams that are incompatible, neither can bear to lose to each other, this is the reality." He paused and said, "Not only that, but there are a lot of unwritten rules in both of our teams, one of which is that whoever scores a goal in a game like this is the hero of the city, and whoever doesn't do his best will be spurned by the fans, and I don't think you will be surprised by that."
