Chapter 537: Can't Afford to Burn

A contest of technique and body!

This is what Gao Han said at the pre-match press conference, commenting on the upcoming Champions League matchup. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

And it turns out that in front of the delicate Inter Milan, Bayern Munich's body looks cramped.

In just five minutes of the opening game, Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo were in a small area of the front court, facing the three defenders of Bayern Munich.

Perhaps due to the discomfort of the Milan climate, at the Meazza Stadium, Magath despite the strongest line-up, the players still failed to play as expected, but lost in the Inter Milan players' inverted feet, balls and individual dribbles.

Playing away from home and having a restrained mentality, Bayern Munich's crazy pressing and pressing seemed a little too hard, but instead of playing the expected effect, it caused itself to be at a loss and made frequent mistakes.

In just eight minutes of the opening game, Demichelis made a mistake in the backfield pass, and Cristiano Ronaldo seized the opportunity, took the ball on the left rib and hoisted it into the small penalty area, Ibrahimovic and Adriano's two ace center forwards were in place at the same time, and finally Adriano hit the top five meters in front of the goal.

After that, it was Cristiano Ronaldo who forced the ball to break through on the left side and made a foul, Figo took a free kick into the penalty area, and Van Bitten rubbed the header and almost created an own goal, which made everyone break out in a cold sweat.

But two minutes later, it was still on the left, it was still Cristiano Ronaldo, who suddenly cut inside with the ball and knocked the ball with his heel to Evra on the left, and the French left-back dribbled the ball into the cross at high speed and created a corner.

Veron took a corner and Cambiaso, who was on the edge of the box, suddenly fired a right-footed volley just over the crossbar.

But soon, Inter's onslaught finally paid off.

McCone was linked up with Adriano on the right and was tackled out of bounds by Lahm, but McCone quickly threw the ball straight into the box and Ibrahimovic was pulled to the ground by Van Bitten when he stopped the ball in the box and turned around.

The referee did not hesitate to award a penalty.

Judging from the slow-motion replay of live TV, Van Bitten was indeed a foul, and the penalty was indisputable.

Ibrahimovic took it upon himself to calmly convert the penalty into the bottom left-hand corner, which Kahn couldn't reach.

But just two minutes later, it was McCone's quick cut down the right that sent in a cross that Ibrahimovic blocked Van Bitten with his body in the box, stopped the ball on his chest and turned around with his right foot to volley again, making it 3-0!

In just 25 minutes, Inter Milan scored three goals in a row, completely stunned Bayern Munich.

But what is even more surprising is that the Nerazzurri's three midfielders, led by Figo, Veron and Cambiaso, are firmly in control of the situation on the field, constantly creating attacking opportunities for the front, and making Bayern Munich a storm in front of the goal.

This also made the Bayern Munich triumvirate sitting in the stands disgraced.

…………

…………

"It's like a one-sided massacre!"

Sitting in the stands, the football emperor Beckenbauer shook his head and sighed.

He is now watching his favorite team, being ravaged by his opponents and unable to do anything about it.

In less than half an hour, three goals conceded, what else can he say?

'We were too unlucky, we conceded the goal at the start and the mentality of the players was a bit bad. Rummenigge shook his head and sighed, feeling that the main thing was that it was too early to concede the goal.

"You're wrong. Beckenbauer smiled bitterly, "On the football field, luck is also a manifestation of strength, and Inter Milan has such a strong strength to be able to seize such luck." ”

Rummenigge and Hoeness pondered it for a moment, and both nodded in agreement.

Who's to say it isn't?

"Of course, Inter Milan is really strong, but the main reason is that we are too weak and we should reflect on it. ”

Beckenbauer's words made Rummenigge and Hoeness also fall into deep thought.

As the flag team of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich has always performed well in Europe, but now facing Inter Milan, they have conceded three goals in less than half an hour.

'Magath is very problematic and I don't think he's fit for the role of manager anymore. Hoeness thought for a moment and said.

To say that Magath is very strong, he does have a strong side, but in terms of team discipline, he is very incomprehensible.

Let's talk about Pizarro, who was fined by the traffic police for drunk driving just three days ago, but instead of being punished within the team, he was asked to start in such an important game and entrusted with important responsibilities, what does this mean?

Could it be that as long as the ball is played well, it is possible to disobey the team's discipline without being punished?

The reason why Germany is called the German tank, the most important point is that discipline is the basis of the team, as the Bundesliga team leader, Bayern Munich is even more so.

Magath has done this, which has caused a lot of controversy within the team.

'During his time in charge, we haven't won a single away game in the Champions League against the big teams, and there are some problems with his line-up, which is debatable. Rummenigge sighed.

There are some head coaches who can mix well in the middle and lower teams, and they can also establish absolute authority, but once they get to the big teams, they will be very uncomfortable with the play of the big teams, and then their results will decline, and finally leave the big team in disgrace, and some coaches will even collapse.

There is no doubt that Magath's time in charge of Bayern Munich did not meet the management's expectations.

Bayern Munich's Big Three are all outstanding professional players, and they are very familiar with professional football, and they all know very well what the problems of Bayern Munich are today.

The team's own strength has indeed weakened, but Magath is also to blame.

'It's true that there is a problem with the manager, but we should also reflect on the management, especially in terms of recruitment. When Beckenbauer said this, he suddenly envied Inter Milan, because during Gao Han's coaching, Inter Milan did not invest much, but introduced a group of high-level reinforcements and created a strong European team in a short period of time.

"Perhaps, we should no longer just look at the interior of the Bundesliga, but we should start looking for some stars in European football who can bring qualitative change to our team and can provoke a large number of big players in the team. ”

Although there are a number of well-known players and internationals in the Bayern Munich team, such as Lahm, who became famous in the World Cup, Brazilian international Lucio, Dutch goalscorer Mackay, Dutch midfielder Van Bommel, etc., these players are fierce generals, but they are not commanders, and they cannot become the stars of the team.

Bayern Munich need Inter Milan's Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Adriano, and Barcelona's Ronaldinho as the type of star because they can make a qualitative change in the quality of the team.

"We all know that, but how can such a star be so easy to find?" Hoeness shook his head helplessly and sighed, "And you know, we are not as rich as Real Madrid and Barcelona, and we have to be careful with every penny. ”

After the bankruptcy of the Kirsch Group, the operation of the Bundesliga team fell into an embarrassing situation, although it has improved over the years, especially Bayern Munich, the business income has developed rapidly, but it still cannot afford to burn money.

Looking at today's European football, there are only a few teams that can afford to burn money.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are Spanish membership teams, Chelsea has local tyrant owners as backers, and as for other teams, even Inter Milan and AC Milan, which have burned a lot of money before, have tightened their money in the past two seasons.

In this case, Bayern Munich is not to mention burning money, spending twenty or thirty million euros, and it has to be considered for more than half a year.

"It's going to be difficult, but it's still very necessary to tighten your belt, smash one or two big stars in, and improve the team, otherwise we will be even less competitive next season. Beckenbauer admonished.

Rummenigge and Hoeness still attach great importance to Beckenbauer's opinion and know very well what the football emperor means.

That's right.

Professional football is a money-burning game.

Of course, how to burn it, whether it is worth burning or not, that is another matter.

"We'll talk about it when we get back, but the immediate priority is to determine what the next step for the team is. ”

Although it was only a 30-minute game, it completely exposed Magath's weakness and dead end, and also made Bayern Munich management completely chill him.

Who can be replaced as the head coach?

"Judging from the past few years, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Arsenal, Real Madrid, and now Inter Milan, the development trend of European football in recent years has been very obvious. ”

Beckenbauer said this, pointing to the game on the field, "Inter Milan is the best proof, and last season's Champions League final was a duel between Barcelona and Arsenal, and it is also a strong proof, but people like Mourinho's Chelsea, Benitez's Liverpool, Capello's Juventus, and us, basically have a hard time." ”

Rummenigge and Hoeness nodded their heads, and they saw that.

Therefore, they decided to invite Gao Han to coach, but Gao Han politely refused.

"Before, we decided to launch the youth training reform, that is, to promote technology, and in recent years we have achieved a lot of achievements, Klinsmann has done well in the national team, and we at Bayern Munich must hurry up to keep up. ”

When Hoeness heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Is it possible to poach Klinsmann to coach at the club?"

When Rummenigge heard it, he also thought it was a good idea.

The German national team's performance at the World Cup has won unanimous recognition, and Klinsmann's reform has been indispensable.

"In addition, there are not many managers in European football who follow the pass-and-control style of play, Carlo Ancelotti is one, and Barcelona's Rijkaard is also quite good. ”

Hoeness feels that these three managers are more hopeful, as for Arsenal's manager Arsene Wenger, then there is no need to think about it, he is unlikely to leave the Gunners.

But the Big Three also know in their hearts that these candidates are not the best choice.

Jurgen Klinsmann has been successful in reforming the national team, but he has not had convincing results at club level and lacks experience, and Carlo Ancelotti has been criticized for his conservative style of play in previous years, that is, after arriving at AC Milan, he has a number of creative midfielders before he develops a pass-and-control style of play.

As for Rijkaard, after the departure of his assistant Ten Carter, his coaching skills are also in doubt.

He is the only one......

The Bayern Munich triumvirate all looked at the man in front of the home team's coach's box.
