It's been three years, and it's been three years since Zhuo Yang became famous in German football, but he didn't receive any call from Jurgen Klinsmann, and even Klinsmann didn't have any communication with him, which made Zhuo Yang can't do without ideas, and the dissatisfaction in his heart exists.

It's been two years, and it's been two years since Zhuo Yang has the external conditions to play for the German national team, but Zhuo Yang has no action and attitude on this, and Klinsmann is gradually dissatisfied with this, and he has an opinion on Zhuo Yang.

In a meeting with Patrick Steele, Klinsmann said that he personally welcomed Zhuo Yang into the German national team, but he made three demands on Zhuo Yang:

1. Change of nationality in the shortest possible time;

Second, publicly thank German football in the media for its training; 、

Third, to openly express in the media the desire to be in the German national team.

If he can do these three things, Klinsmann said that he will call Zhuo Yang into the team, and there are no major injuries or other accidents, and a World Cup place can be determined.

The German national team does not reject minorities and people of color, and the African-American Asamoah and Odonko have become regular visitors to the national team, but not to mention these 'outsiders', even many outstanding German football players mobilize and whenever there is a possibility of being selected, they will openly build momentum for themselves in the media and express their admiration for the national team, and those 'outsiders' are even more eager to lick and rub up, such as Iranian Zandi. So it's not surprising that Klinsmann has this attitude.

It's a pity that Zhuo Yang's thoughts are completely different from him.

Unlike these Europeans around him, Zhuo Yang believes that changing nationality is a big event, a big event, just like birth, old age, sickness, death, marriage, funeral, and marriage, it is a major event that completely changes his life. But Europeans, including the 'proud' Germans, dual nationality or even multiple nationality is commonplace, and because of the European Union and the Schengen Convention, European nationality is actually similar to the hukou of Chinese in different provinces, how big of a deal can you say to move the hukou from Fujian to Guangdong?

But in Zhuo Yang's view, there must be a sufficient reason for such a big thing as changing nationality, and he believes that this reason is - the German national team solemnly invited me to enter. In addition, whether he changes his nationality or not will not be affected, so why change?

Zhuo Yang does not have as many conditions as Klinsmann, and his main idea is one: the German national team openly invites and welcomes him in the media.

Only when the German national team first sends an invitation can it persuade itself to take this step, and only in this way can Zhuo Yang, who received traditional Chinese education since childhood and grew up in the military compound, completely abandon this identity as a Chinese. This is Zhuo Yang's bottom line, and the German national team must first make a statement and show its thirst for talent.

Zhuo Yang did not have a narrow national concept, and he went abroad after graduating from high school at the age of seventeen, which also made him have not had time to make the motherland a kind of belief, and he was not so strict with rigid rules. But the pride and arrogance in his heart will never allow him to pray to anyone, the other party has not yet had the attitude to change his nationality first, and Zhuo Yang can't do this kind of falling thing.

- That's right, my football and piano were honed and refined in Germany, but when it comes to the fundamentals and foundations, the piano is a step from my mother's teachings and love, and football is also the growth and accumulation of football on the potholed field in Xi'an with the tacit approval of my father.

- I respect and thank my teachers and coaches, but you Germans should not attribute all the credit and all my success to Germany, and do not want me to kneel down and thank you for your charity, you Germans are not Lei Feng.

Klinsmann and Zhuo Yang are not wrong, they just start from their different standpoints. But when it comes to inner pride, compared with Zhuo Yang, Klinsmann is an uneducated turtle.

As a newly released European Ballon d'Or winner and runner-up of the World Footballer of the Year, as the image representative of the Bundesliga, Zhuo Yang is qualified to put some scores, even if the object of the score is the German national team.

Within the German national team, there is actually no unity of opinion, Klinsmann's attitude is very resolute, and his status as head coach also makes others have to follow his opinion. Klinsmann's assistant Juachim Loew was not as stubborn as he was, and Loew even understood Zhuo Yang a little.

Loew was not as famous as Klinsmann when he was a player, he was just a good striker who wandered between the first and second divisions, and his lackluster player experience also made him have no arrogant capital, of course, Loew himself was a wise man who loved to learn and ponder problems. Based on the interests of the national team, Loew the Wise believes that it is not impossible to give Zhuo Yang a decent person, and he will not lose the prestige of German football in the slightest. It is not a matter of principle at all to issue a welcome and invitation first, and the wise man is good at being flexible, and Loew believes that Zhuo Yang is worthy of the love of German football.

But as a tactical assistant coach, he is soft-spoken, and his resume and prestige are too far from Klinsmann's, so he can't persuade him at all, and he can only sigh and be anxious. Klinsmann is the emperor who is not in a hurry, he is just an accompanying eunuch.

Zhuo Yang, Loew, has no reason to persuade him, and he can't talk about it. He once asked Piggy Schwein and Grandpa Mo, two well-known good brothers of Zhuo Yang, during the national team training camp, to see if he could let these two go to Zhuo Yang to give him a word, but the two answered in a surprisingly consistent tone.

"Zhuo Yang is my brother, and he is also a very assertive person. I will support him no matter what decision he makes, but I don't want to kidnap him with brotherly feelings, this is the bottom line and principle of why we become brothers. ”

Xiaozhu and Grandpa know Zhuo Yang very well, if they persuade Zhuo Yang to back down, it will be very difficult for Zhuo Yang to do it, no matter what happens in the end, it will inevitably affect the relationship between each other, and the gains outweigh the losses. So, the matter was put on hold in such a strange way.

Steele and Klinsmann failed to negotiate, and Zhuo Yang knew that there was no hope of competing in the World Cup in the summer, so as soon as the German squad came out, he took it calmly, and he didn't see any dissatisfaction and disappointment, nor did he perceive any resentment and jealousy, but Zhuo Yang's phone call to Mark Venster two days later may show that he is not as heartfelt as he seems on the surface.

"Mark, I've decided, change the original plan, you go and arrange ......"

“…… Okay, I'll contact the eldest sister and discuss it. Zhuo Yang, have you decided? ”

"Alright, you can arrange it."

.

The outside world does not know that Zhuo Yang and Klinsmann are unwilling to make the slightest concession, but Zhuo Yang's defeat in the squad is clear, and the German media began to raise questions, guessing everything, with Zhuo Yang's current identity, it is really an incredible thing to lose the national team.

Zhuo Yang refused to answer all questions about the national team, as he had done with the Chinese national team in the past, forcibly blocking the question. Klinsmann also said in response to a reporter's question: "I want everyone to focus on the players who have already been selected, and to focus on all the people who are not on the list, it is disrespectful to the current members of the national team. ”

Neither Zhuo Yang nor Klinsmann elaborated on the disputes and disagreements to the media, which also showed that the two of them did not want to tear their faces apart, and both left room for things.
