Chapter 203: A colleague, not a friend

Zhuo Yang felt that Rijkaard was thinking too much and had to make simple things complicated.

"Jie Shuai, I am just a colleague with all my teammates in the national team, and I chose to return to the Chinese national team two years ago because this is my country, not because there are my friends in the national team."

During the two international breaks in October, the Chinese national team had no serious games to play, but they couldn't miss such an opportunity. Now that the Chinese team has experienced the World Cup, and the performance is not bad, the vision is a little high, and it always invites some small fish and shrimp in China, such as last year's inexplicable team like Botswana to travel to the game, and the Chinese team can no longer look down on it.

During the 10-day international break, the Chinese team came to Europe, and although the 2012 European Cup qualifiers were in full swing, there were also some teams that happened to have byes, and the Football Association contacted them in advance and invited them to play.

England at Wembley on 8 October and Norway in Oslo on 12 October. Compared with the past, the quality of opponents in the friendly matches of the national team is undoubtedly much higher, which is also one of the benefits brought by the World Cup.

The 2011 Qatar Asian Cup is about to start in January, the Chinese team's warm-up has an obvious preparatory nature, and the domestic media also have a call for the Asian Cup to win the championship, it seems that the national team that has a wonderful performance in the World Cup returns to Asia, and the championship is just a matter of hand.

Japan and South Korea also have very bright performances in South Africa, no less than the Chinese team, do you think they are muddy? Australia, host Qatar, are they all dead? And in retrospect, the national team actually only won one game in South Africa, and then only drew with Italy, which was at an all-time low, and used the penalty kick bug to draw with the Netherlands, there is nothing to show off at all.

But a World Cup has changed too many things, rippling the hearts of the domestic media, the chests of proud fans, and the international players.

It has been less than three months since the end of the World Cup, but the praise of the whole society, the pursuit of businessmen, and the exaggeration of the media made Zhuo Yang very unbearable and fled back to Europe early, but most of the other international players could not escape, and they fell into false prosperity.

I haven't seen them for a few months, many people's bellies have grown significantly, and their oily faces are more like successful people, so you can imagine how they treat their bodies in the past few months, but it is even more regrettable their attitude towards football.

There has been a resurgence of cliques within the team, with serious huddles during training games, and even clashes on the training ground, as well as extremely bad blackfoot behavior.

When Zhuo Yang was in the team, he could deter all the young people, but when he went back to Europe, many signs of indiscriminate behavior appeared one after another. How can the old disease be so easy to cure, a wave will make the scum under the water resurface.

It is even more ridiculous to treat the issue of staying abroad.

Many players have come into the spotlight of European teams because of their performances, but many have lost their identity and can't remember that this is just a team called 'Zhuo Yang alone'. The lion who received the inquiry opened his mouth wide, scoffed at the trial requirements, and opened his mouth to ask for the main force.

There are also people who went to Zhuo Qiu and asked the eldest sister to act as an agent for his international transfer, which is actually not outrageous, but the condition is that AC Milan must give him the main position, with an annual salary of no less than 2 million, and the jersey number is also specified.

This is to think of herself as Zhuo Yang, but the eldest sister has only one younger brother. Before he finished speaking, he was blasted out by Zhuo Qiu, who was too ignorant of the height of the sky.

In the past summer, many South Korean and Japanese internationals have gone to mainstream European leagues, but only Zhuo Yang, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zheng, Hao Junmin, and Sun Xiang are still Chinese players who are working alone in their respective leagues, and there is no one more.

European clubs are not blind, and the conditions are right to raise you to facilitate the development of the Chinese market, but if you have to say that football is of any help to the team, you amuse me? Madiburg, the most iron-clad relation, did not open a single slit towards Zhuo Yang, and Hasler felt like a mirror in his heart.

Sadly, many people can't wake up at all, even the Chinese Super League clubs are fooling around and following the trend, the value of the international players has all doubled several times, and they earn much more in China than once they stay abroad, no wonder they are so confident.

These can still be tolerated, but the attitude towards training and games makes Jie Shuai really unbearable, free and casual and does not abide by tactical discipline, and runs blindly on the field in order to show himself, these problems are all emerging.

Because of the language problem, there is a barrier to direct communication between the coaching staff and the players, and they are more accustomed to only worrying about the team's skills and tactics, and the daily management is handed over to the Chinese team leader and other management. However, it is difficult to say whether there is a shadow of Chinese management behind the team's current infighting, after all, this is the tradition of Chinese football and the Football Association.

At the beginning of last month, Xie Yanlong, the former full-time vice chairman of the Football Association, who had been transferred to China Sports Industry as chairman for a year, was taken away by the police, and the dragon king finally failed to escape to repay the debt he created. But his arrest did not sound the alarm for some people, but instead mapped this point of the raging struggle brought about by the power shuffle into the national team.

With Zhuo Yang's support, Jie Shuai has absolute authority in employing people in the national team, and he doesn't have to worry about the bullshit relationship in China at all, and the only person he cares about is Zhuo Yang.

After a World Cup, many young players in the team got along very well with Zhuo Yang, and they looked close all day long. Jie Shuai knows that Zhuo Yang attaches great importance to friendship, even more than football itself. He had the heart to take those people, but he was worried about making Zhuo Yang unhappy. Therefore, the first thing Zhuo Yang did after he and the national team converged was that Jie Shuai made a small report to him, 'asking for instructions' if he could attack these unhealthy tendencies.

In fact, Zhuo Yang had already heard about these bad practices from his sister and Cheng Hao, but he didn't expect Jie Shuai to be so indecisive. Zhuo Yang did get along with a lot of young players, but he was fundamentally different from other football brothers.

Between the six musketeers, football is due to brothers, and between teammates of the national team, it is close because of football. The premise of a good relationship with you is because of the collective of the national team, once this premise is missing, who am I and who are you?

"Jie Shuai, in this team, except for you and me, anyone can be missing, don't worry so much."

"That's good." Rijkaard nodded: "Zhuo Yang, I know what to do, but the result may affect the results of the Asian Cup, you still have to be mentally prepared for this." ”

"Don't worry, even if you don't even qualify for the group, there won't be any problems." Zhuo Yang made Rijkaard's hanging heart fall back into his stomach.
