Chapter 634: I Want to Leave the Team

The Christmas party is an annual gathering of Bayern Munich, usually arranged after the last match of the first half, and the club will hire the chef of the most famous Western restaurant in Munich, Schurebeck Restaurant, to organize it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As a well-known chef in Germany, Schuberk is also the most frequent dining place in Bayern Munich, and is very familiar with the tastes of the club, renting a vacant land near Sebena, setting up a temporary banquet booth, carefully arranging it, and specially inviting Munich's famous circus and performance troupes to perform live.

The whole Christmas party was full of joy and the festive atmosphere was very strong.

Not only did the players and senior management drag their families, but even Lin Xia flew from Madrid to Munich to accompany Gao Han to participate.

Lin Xia, who is beautiful and refined from the East, amazed everyone present and became the most eye-catching focus of the wife group.

The team's first half record was amazing, and the whole team was full of confidence, the festive atmosphere was very warm, and the children's children of the players were playing together on the spot, and from time to time someone ran over to pester Gao Han to sign a group photo.

Gao Han was in a good mood, one by one to meet the Christmas wishes of this group of children, and Lin Xia took out the exquisite gifts with Chinese characteristics that had been prepared long ago and gave them to all the children who participated in the party, which made the children overjoyed.

"I really envy this group of children. "Sent away the last child," Gao Han said with a smile.

In fact, he couldn't tell who was whose child, but he thought everyone was cute.

Lin Xia Qiao stood aside, and after listening, she secretly glanced at Gao Han, her face was slightly red, and she said softly: "Since you like it so much, why don't we give birth to one ourselves?"

Since the two got married, they have been living a chic two-person world.

Lin Xia continued to work in Spain, and his career has made considerable progress, not to mention Gao Han, who has long been one of the top coaches in Europe, and the two get together almost every week, but they have never thought about having children.

After all, once you have a child, you will definitely not be able to be as free as you are now.

On the contrary, it was the two pairs of old people in the family, I don't know how many times they urged for this.

"You've decided?" asked Gao Han.

Lin Xia nodded heavily, "Well, I decided to resign." ”

Gao Han had heard Lin Xia mention this matter as early as a year ago, but she didn't have such a strong idea at that time, and in the past few months, something has happened that has further strengthened her thoughts.

At the beginning, she became a reporter in order to fulfill her ideals, but now that she has joined the Chinese News Agency, she has been doing it for so many years, and her career is thriving, but she finds that she seems to be getting farther and farther away from her dream, and she feels a little tired.

"I want to take a break and think about it. Lin Xia said with certainty.

Although the salary in the Chinese Society is not high, over the years, she can be regarded as financially independent, and it is also a good thing to resign and rest for a period of time, recharge her batteries, and think about the future before setting off.

Gao Han smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'm definitely supporting you, but ......"

"But what?"

"It's definitely not enough to have one, at least four. Gao Han laughed and said, "You think, they like children so much, if you don't satisfy them with one of them, then you can't break your head?"

Lin Xia chuckled and scolded, "Are you a pig for me?" After speaking, he was about to reach out and beat him.

But Gao Han suddenly became serious, coughed heavily, and reminded Lin Xia that someone was watching next to him, so he had to pay attention to his image.

Lin Xia turned his head, just in time to see Fan Bitten standing there awkwardly, as if he wanted to get closer, but he was a little hesitant, although he knew that the conversation with her husband just now was not heard, but Lin Xia's face still turned red, and after glancing at Gao Han fiercely, he turned around and walked towards the wife group.

"Boss. Van Bitten approached.

"Sit. Gao Han pointed to the seat opposite him, and waited until Van Bitten sat down before he smiled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

Van Bitten nodded, with a slight hesitation on his face, but finally took a deep breath and stared directly at Gao Han.

'I want to leave the team. ”

"Leave?" Gao Han was a little surprised.

'Yes, there are a lot of teams in the Premier League who are interested in me, including Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, Fulham, Sunderland and Wigan, and I have also been approached by Celtic in the Premier League and they all want me to join. ”

Gao Han was really a little caught off guard, but he didn't expect Van Bitten to ask to leave the team at this time.

Indeed, the Belgian centre-back has struggled to play at Bayern Munich, with Hummels being the backbone of the Alpine midfield and Lucio in good form, with Van Bitten lacking much competitive advantage against these two players.

Even, to some extent, Gao Han, who pays more attention to passing and holding the ball in the backcourt, is more inclined to Demichelis.

What's more, Jerome Boateng and Bad Stuber are both young players who have been hand-picked up by Gao Han, and they have also performed well, which makes Van Bitten deeply feel that the pressure of competition in the team will increase.

At least at the beginning of the season, he would never have imagined that Hummels could replace him as the team's main central defender.

But now, the German central defender has not only done it, but is also performing better and better, and the status is already difficult to shake.

"Can you tell me why?" asked Gao Han.

Van Bitten thought for a moment and nodded: "I want to play better for the national team, next there is the European Championship and the World Cup, I want more games to ensure my form." ”

Over the past few years, the results of the Belgian national team have been really sad.

As a European Red Devil, Belgium's record in the past few tournaments has not been ideal, which has put a lot of pressure on Van Bitten, who is the captain of the team, but now he is not playing in Bayern Munich, which is probably not acceptable to him.

There is no doubt that staying at Bayern Munich, he will definitely be able to win more championships and honors, the whole team, and all the fans are convinced of Gao Han's coaching ability, but the problem is that Gao Han can't change his feelings and responsibilities for the national team, so he wants to leave.

With his style of play, he is really suitable for the development of the Premier League.

But Gao Han is also a little difficult.

Although there are a lot of central defenders in the team now, Lucio and Hummels have performed well, and there are strong substitutes like Demichelis, Bad Stuber and Jerome Boateng are worth looking forward to, but in the end, the strength is not enough.

In this case, Bayern Munich, who are facing multi-front operations, are in need of a substitute like Van Bitten.

But the players have all talked about this, and Gao Han can see that he has made up his mind, so it can't help but be a little tricky.

"I'll think about it and get back to you before the winter break, okay?"

"Well, I'm waiting for your news. Van Bitten nodded in agreement.

"But I want you to keep it a secret for now, you know what I mean, right?"

"Understood. ”

Seeing Van Bitten away, Gao Han sighed heavily.

The successive victories did make Bayern Munich's morale red, but it could not hide the problems exposed within the team, all the problems left over from the summer reorganization, and now almost all of them have erupted.

Van Bitten chose to leave the team because he did not have a chance within the team to ensure his fitness for this summer's European Championships, so he wanted to leave the team and go to a team that would allow him to play as a regular player.

For him, the training is more important than the championship trophy.

Yes, the championship trophy is very tempting, but for many players, they would rather not want it than sit on the bench and receive it, it is not a reward for them at all.

Not to mention that it is still for the national team.

There is another one who also wants to leave the team, Podolsky.

Before the German prince joined Bayern Munich, he was indeed highly anticipated, but after coming to Bayern Munich, his situation has deteriorated, especially after Gao Han took over the team, and successively introduced stars such as Ribery, Aguero, Klose and Robben, Podolski did not get a chance at all.

This made Podolski a little less dedicated in training, and his condition was not particularly good, so Gao Han even preferred to give the opportunity to play to the youngster Thomas Müller rather than Podolski.

Not long ago, the head coach of the German national team, Loew, once mentioned Podolski in an interview with the media, thinking that the latter's state is indeed not ideal, and he understands Gao Han's decision to employ people.

It has also led to widespread speculation in the German media that Loew is likely to leave Podolski out of the squad for the European Championships.

Soon, Podolski openly stated in an interview with the media that he did not want to sit on the bench for another half a year, and he said that he needed more games to ensure his fitness.

But for the current Bayern Munich, as long as there is no injury or illness, Podolski will not get a chance at all.

In the Bundesliga giants' forward rankings, Podolski is even ranked behind Thomas Müller.

But if he is let go, what if there is an injury in the second half?

Every big team often needs some substitutes like Van Bitten and Podolski, who are capable but can't play the main team, and there are very few players who are willing to sit on the bench and wait patiently for their chances.

No, even the captain of the team, Karn, began to lose his temper and simply did not even attend the Christmas party.

Everyone knew that Karn was retiring.

But the lion king, who is about to retire, still has a big temper, and there was nothing at the beginning of the season, but as the season deepened, there were some problems with his mentality, and he began to be a little dissatisfied with Gao Han's support for Neuer to play the main role, thinking that he should at least have a fair chance to compete.

But this point had already been clearly dissected by Gao Han with Karn at the beginning of the season, and he had no opinion at the time.

According to Gao Han's understanding, one of the important reasons why Kahn changed his attitude is that after the reorganization, there is a gap between the new signings and the old ministers, especially the high annual salaries received by strong reinforcements such as Ribery, Robben and Klose, which broke the original salary structure of the team and shook Kahn's position as the original leader of the locker room.

Under these circumstances, coupled with the provocation of some media and agents, Kahn's mentality naturally changed.

Some time ago, Bayern Munich's continuous performance was sluggish, and media reporters generally believed that it was a decline in form, and Gao Han's internal explanation was the fatigue caused by multi-front battles, as well as seasonal factors, but there was a very important reason behind it, that is, salary.

There is a good saying that if you want a horse to run, you have to let the horse eat grass.

Bayern Munich's management broke the team's salary structure when they brought in reinforcements in the summer, but they did not act on the renewal of many main players such as Lahm, Schweinsteiger and Lucio, which naturally led to conflicts in the dressing room.

The players were not happy, and it affected their performance on the pitch to some extent.

Relying on his own authority and influence, Gao Han can still hold it down for the time being, but what about a long time?

It's just started like this, so what about the next season?

This matter must be resolved quickly!

Gao Han thought about it, and was about to get up to look for someone, but he saw Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, and Hoeness walking towards him with a smile.
