Chapter 130: A New Official Takes Office
Schalke 04 club senior management dismissal of Slomka too sudden, in the media caused a heated discussion, some media said that Slomka is a big wrong, the newspaper said that the results of Slomka in the past two years are still very good, last season almost won the league championship, and this season he led Schalke 04 to the quarterfinals of history, and even in the semi-finals of the game to Barcelona are miserable, if a little luck, maybe it is a historic entry into the semi-finals.
Some media criticized Slomka's lineup, believing that his failure was inevitable, Slomka's lineup was almost a lineup, even if it was a third-line battle, a lineup to fight the world, which was obviously not good for Schalke 04, and the fiasco to Werder Bremen had completely exceeded the bottom line of fans and clubs.
Some media revealed that Slomka did not have strict control over the locker room, and there were contradictions with the big players in the team, resulting in players not working the field, this statement Zhang Yuan scoffed, he thought that the players were still very the field, but they were really too tired, and the two devil schedules in the second half of the schedule Schalke 04 did not survive once, which was miserable, which is probably an important reason for the club to fire Slomka.
Everyone came to the training ground, and there were already two coaches standing on the training ground, one was Michelle Buskens, who was the head coach of the club's reserve team, and the other was Yuri Mulder.
Zhang Yuan asked Neuer in a low voice: "Who is that tall man?"
"Yuri Mulder, a Dutchman, used to play for Schalke 04!" replied Neuer.
"Is he the coach, the person who replaces Mr. Slomka?" Zhang Yuan continued to ask in a low voice.
Neuer shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.
Buskens is an old courtier of Schalke 04, played for Schalke 04 for many years, and worked for Schalke 04 club after retiring, and now that Slomka is opened, the club will let him be a transitional coach, and Buskens did not hesitate to take over the coaching of the team.
And Yuri Mulder is also an old servant of Schalke 04, he played for Schalke 04 for 9 seasons, and is a teammate of Buskens, this time Schalke 04 club sacked Slomka premeditated, and earlier contacted the manager of the Eredivisie FC Twente Fred Lüten, next season Schalke 04 will be managed by Fred Lüten.
Yuri Mulder, Fred Rürten's assistant coach at FC Twente, has come to Schalke 04 mainly to play for Fred Lüten.
"Hello boys, my name is Michelle Buskens, I guess you all know me! Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yuri Mulder! Mr. Slomka has been dismissed from the club, and Yuri and I will lead the training matches for the rest of the season!" Buskens said with a serious expression.
"Hello everyone! My name is Yuri Mulder, and I hope we can have a good time working together!" said Mr. Yuri Mulder, who was tall, but kind-hearted and smiling.
"Our goal this season is to qualify for the Champions League, and the situation must be clear to everyone now, although we are still in third place, but Bayer Leverkusen, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Wolfsburg are not far away, I hope everyone can figure out the situation, redouble our efforts and try to achieve the goal!
After getting to know each other, the new officers Buskens and Mulder were on the job, and the first day of training was no different from usual, just like the training plan that Slomka had originally formulated.
After the training, when he returned home, Zhang Yuan called Slomka, he was very sympathetic to Slomka, and he was skeptical of Slomka's layoff, thinking that the club may not have chosen the right path, but he is a professional player and cannot interfere with the club's decision.
"Hey, hello, Mr. Slomka, I'm Zhang Yuan!"
"Ah, Zhang Yuan, hello!haha, why did you remember to call me, didn't you come to comfort me!" It sounds like Slomka is not too disappointed, maybe as a head coach, he must have the consciousness of leaving class at any time.
"I'm sorry for what happened!"
"Oh, nothing, every manager takes such a risk, it's just too sudden!" Slomka said with a wry smile.
"Thank you very much for helping me, Mr. Slomka!"
"Hehe, young man, don't thank me! Zhang Yuan, you are very talented, you have improved a lot when you came to Schalke 04, I think you yourself have a feeling, I hope you can make down-to-earth progress in the future, I believe that you will achieve high achievements in the future, and you will become a unique one!" Slomka said.
"I really hope to have another chance to cooperate with you in the future!" Zhang Yuan sighed, Slomka did help him a lot, at least he was determined to give himself the main position, so that he could accumulate more experience through the game.
"Haha, I hope too, I hope that one day!" said Slomka with a smile, he admired Zhang Yuan, but it was really unknown in the future.
The two chatted for a while, put down the phone, and Mai Xuewen came over and asked, "Slomka is out of class, will it affect your main position?"
Zhang Yuan shrugged, "The hell only knows! But today's training for Buskens and Mulder didn't show any dissatisfaction with me!"
"Ketbus will come over to play next week, will you ask Shao Jia to dinner?" Mai Xuewen asked, Shao Jia is a member of the Chinese national team, used to play in Munich 1860, and then went to Ketbus, Cartbus was only promoted to the Bundesliga last year, they are a team in the East German region, the team strength is limited, and now they are part of the relegation army.
Zhang Yuan only came to Germany, Shao Jia found Zhang Yuan's phone, very enthusiastic to call Zhang Yuan, tell him some of the situation in Germany, the two usually occasionally call each other to communicate, after all, both of them are Chinese, it is normal to support each other and help each other.
"Of course, I haven't met Brother Shao yet, this time he came to Gelsenkirchen, why don't you have to invite him to dinner!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
"Okay, how about the end of the game?" asked Mak Xuewen.
"Don't worry, I'll ask first! What if he doesn't come!" Zhang Yuan picked up the phone and dialed Shao Jia's phone.
"Brother Shao, hello, I'm Zhang Yuan!"
"Zhang Yuan, hello!
"Alright, what about you?"
"Okay, huh, your head coach was fired?"
"Yes, it's a pity, I told you that Mr. Slomka still thinks highly of me, but now ...... , the future is unknown!" Zhang Yuan expressed his concerns in front of Shao Jia.
"Don't worry, be yourself! As long as you perform well, no coach will ignore you! I believe in your strength!" Shao Jia really believes in Zhang Yuan's strength, just imagine how a Chinese teenager more than 17 years old can be favored by the giant Inter Milan and be able to stand firm in the main position in Schalke 04?
"Thank you, Brother Shao, I will work hard!" Zhang Yuan thanked Shao Jia for his encouragement.
"Oh, by the way, have you been called up by the National Olympic team?" asked Shao Jia Zhang Yuan.
To be honest, Zhang Yuan usually didn't think about the National Olympic team and the national team at all, and many reporters asked, "Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan, will you participate in the Olympic Games?" Zhang Yuan basically replied that he was ready at any time, but in fact he didn't think about it at all, and the head coach of the National Olympic team and the national team never called him.
"Uh, no!"
"Alas, you are so good, why didn't I look for you!"
"I don't know about this! Okay, don't talk about it, will you come over this weekend's game?"
"Now I can't say well, since the injury, my position in the team, hehe, day by day!" said Shao Jia with a wry smile, who missed the first game of the new coach with a torn ankle ligament in training before the match against Eintracht Frankfurt in the eighth round of the league. Injuries have come and gone, Shao Jiayi missed a lot of games, and did not return until December 9 last year against Hamburg, but he also lost his main position, and is still trying to fight, it is really hard to say whether he can come.
"Oh, well, if you're coming, call me, and we'll get together!"
"Hehe, no problem!" (To be continued.) )
