Chapter 119: The Devil's Training Begins
"Sir, I'm willing to accept your arrangement!" Zhang Yuan thought about it and agreed, the factor he considered was that at least there was someone in the forward position who could share the power with him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You should believe me, Zhang Yuan! You have to believe in yourself, you have the ability to do well in the position of nine and a half!" Magath patted Zhang Yuan on the shoulder and said.
Magath came and did a lot of homework, the lack of attack is Schalke 04's biggest problem, if you rank by the number of goals, Schalke 04 is still lower than now, the league goal is Wolfsburg, reaching 80 goals, 30 more than Schalke 04.
Magath's idea is to improve Schalke 04's attack no matter what, and also maintain the fine tradition of Schalke 04's solid defense.
For this reason, he decided to change the formation, changing the previous 433 to 442, the midfield diamond position, adding a forward midfielder, and the two full-backs had to press when attacking.
Add a center forward to the front line, this center is the need for a high school forward, this kind of forward combination is called a high-speed combination, this combination has long appeared in football, and it is still enduring today.
Magath intends to sacrifice such a forward combination, basically the idea is to keep Kuranyi, after thinking for a long time, he still intends to keep Kuranyi, after all, this person has excellent heading ability, and Zhang Yuan and him complement each other.
Of course, this is just Magath's wishful thinking now, and if the effect is not good at that time, he can only passively change formations.
After a conversation with Magath, Zhang Yuan knew the role he would play this season, he actually took on a much lighter task, preset the front midfield, this position is destined to be the core of the organization, Zhang Yuan will no longer be as frequent as last season to retreat to take the ball organization, but has become a striker someone to share the pressure of scoring goals, and there is also a forward in the offensive organization to help him share.
It is incorrect to say that Zhang Yuan shared, it should be said that Zhang Yuan helped the people in these two positions share the duties, and changed from the previous protagonist to a supporting role.
Why did Magath do this? Because he felt that Zhang Yuan was very comprehensive, the most prominent thing was dribbling and speed, and his breakthrough ability was strong, but he was not top in terms of organization and goal-grabbing ability, so he arranged for Zhang Yuan to play as a second striker.
Zhang Yuan can score, but in Magath's eyes, he wasted a lot of opportunities, to relieve pressure on Zhang Yuan, he felt that it was more conducive to Zhang Yuan's performance, in the end, Zhang Yuan was still the most anticipated player in his mind.
After the end of individual training, the day of Schalke 04 training camp has arrived, this year is not a big year, Schalke 04 players have returned to Gelsenkirchen one after another.
On the evening of July 3rd, Zhang Yuan and a group of buddies of the team went out to party all night, and the days of freedom tomorrow will be over, and everyone is very worried, not knowing what the devil coach Magath will do to deal with them.
Zhang Yuan didn't dare to play for long in the evening, and went home after 10 o'clock, and on the way home, Digan was excited with anticipation.
"Degan, it looks like you're looking forward to tomorrow's training!" Zhang Yuan asked.
"Haha, it's been a long time since I've played football, I miss it so much! I hope to see something interesting tomorrow!" Deegan said with a laugh, he was in a good mood, Schalke 04 renewed his contract, and according to his father Wright Sr., Degan should leave from here.
Degan's outstanding performance last season is no longer unattended, although there are no giants, but there are still a lot of middle and lower reaches who want him, and Mr. Wright unconsciously fluttered, hoping that his son could earn more money.
Degan rejected his father's transfer proposal, but chose to stay, Schalke 04 is currently Zhang Yuan is the first salary, the second tier is Bolton, Kuranyi and the like, after the successful renewal of the contract Degan can only be ranked in the third echelon, about 1 million after tax, restoring the previous level in AC Milan.
Compared with his brother Kaka, who just transferred to Real Madrid, he is far behind, but he is very happy, this money is earned by him relying on his own strength, not because of Kaka, because he is Zhang Yuan's good buddy.
When it comes to charity, there is no club in the Bundesliga that would give like that.
With the money he earned, Digan is also a lot more generous, this season Zhang Yuan's box fee was shared equally by Digan, Neuer, and Rakitic, and everyone shared a box, so the AA system really made Zhang Yuan overjoyed.
He complained about how he was so stupid before, how he didn't think of such a good idea!
Not to mention that Di Gan is looking forward to what will happen tomorrow, Zhang Yuan himself is also looking forward to it.
Arriving at the training ground at half past eight the next morning, in the Schalke 04 dressing room, the players giggled and joked about the holiday.
Zhang Yuan has also become the object of everyone's attention because of Zhang Yuan's hairstyle.
In the United States, Anna dragged Zhang Yuan to her hairstylist to cut a long mohican hairstyle, which was very punk.
Now Zhang Yuan has to spend energy on his hair in order to maintain his image, and when he has a long report on his new hairstyle on his personal website and Facebook, it has attracted unanimous praise, and netizens have left messages.
"Zhang Yuan, what is this hairstyle called?
"I have to say that people rely on dressing up, your previous hairstyle was inferior, but now you have completely changed your image!"
There was a lot of interest in his hairstyle in the dressing room, and there was no shortage of people who wanted to try it out.
In the midst of a lively discussion, Magath entered the dressing room, and the players were silent.
Compared to Magath, Schalke 04 is inferior to this group of players, they have no glorious past, and their strength speaks here.
"Gentlemen, I'm glad you're back in good condition! The first training session is about to begin, assemble at the training ground at 9 o'clock, and there is a penalty for being late for a quick move!" said Magath, giving a welcome speech.
"Good coach!"
"Yes sir!"
The players responded to Magath's request and quickened the pace of changing clothes.
At 9 o'clock, the Schalke 04 players were all gathered on the training ground, and everyone stood in a proper manner, not daring to make a mistake in front of the devil coach, even veterans like Bolton Wanderers and Kuranyi.
"First of all, from today our summer training camp will begin, there will be a lot of training every day, I hope each of you can do it seriously, if you can't complete it, you all know the consequences!"
"The second thing, I need to appoint a new captain, you will choose it yourself, and you will choose it this afternoon!" This news has been there before, Bolton's current position is no longer suitable for the captain of the team, in the past, it was the top management who appointed new captains, and now Magath actually let the players choose their own, but this is good, their own selection can give more face.
After saying these two things, it is time to start training.
During the period of Slomka, Rüten and Buskens, the training camp was basically based on training with the ball, but today Magath is obviously different here, in the 90 minutes of the morning, he completely adopted the off-ball mode, which is to let everyone run wildly, warm-up run, long-distance running, sprinting, switchback running, and running with tires.
There was no break in between, and after 90 minutes, everyone was tired, especially the older ones who really sat on the ground and didn't want to talk, and they felt more tired than playing a game.
Seeing that everyone had worked hard to complete the training, Magath smiled with satisfaction, but this smile greeted everyone with an even more tragic thing.
"Everyone did a great job, this morning's training is over, there is still a training session at 5:30 p.m.!"
The key is that Magath said and then said: "There is not much time left for us to train, I forgot to inform you just now, everyone will go home after lunch and bring daily necessities, and everyone will live together until the end of summer training from today, of course I will give you a holiday! From July 6th to 11th, we will go to Hertzrak for training!"
Hearing this news undoubtedly made everyone very unhappy, and they were not allowed to go home even in Gelsenkirchen training, which was too much!
However, there is no way that the arm is destined to be unable to twist the thigh, and the privilege of Ma Jia is overwhelming, everyone can only admit it, and single dogs like Zhang Yuan and Di Gan don't matter.
After lunch at the base, Zhang Yuan and Di Gan went home to pack their luggage and stayed at the training base, they were very close to the base but nothing special, and they had to go to the base to live.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the players began to vote for the captain, which was similar to Zhang Yuan's previous election of class cadres in the school, by secret ballot.
There are three captains, one captain, one vice-captain and one third captain.
In addition, there is a team committee to be formed, and the election method of the team committee is not repeated, and the team committee is composed of three captains plus the fourth and fifth votes, and five people.
The names of three people can be filled in on a ballot paper, and it does not matter whether the captain, vice-captain, or third captain, but it is determined in order according to the total number of votes counted at the end. (To be continued.) )
