Chapter 246: First Training Session

Seeing that Jiang Chen and Zhang Xizhe had a harmonious relationship, Lippi nodded and said: "Since this is the case, then let's do it today, you guys have a good rest, and tomorrow we will go to the Xianghe base!" ”

After finishing speaking, Lippi left, leaving Jiang Chen and Zhang Xizhe in the room.

Zhang Xizhe immediately said: "You brought all the things here?" I'll clean it up for you! ”

Jiang Chen naturally would not refuse, this was the time to bring the relationship between the two closer, Jiang Chen immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Zhang!" ”

Zhang Xizhe scolded with a smile: "Be virtuous, hurry up, let's hurry up and start together!" ”

Then Jiang Chen immediately stepped forward and worked with Zhang Xizhe to organize his own things, in fact, he also divided the room and set aside a small piece of private space to prevent personal belongings from being taken away.

The two of them were busy, Zhang Xizhe suddenly sighed: "You kid is still very capable, as soon as you go to Parma, you will help the team upgrade, brother, I didn't have much luck back then, I didn't play a few games in total, I won a German Cup, brother, I don't have the face to mention it!" ”

Jiang Chen heard that Zhang Xizhe seemed to be unwilling in China, and was suspended by the Football Association for twelve games, so he immediately said: "Brother Zhang, you don't still want to stay in the Chinese Super League, right?" The level is enough, and you haven't reached the age of retirement, the Super League is not a place for you to stay? ”

Zhang Xizhe sighed, did not deny or admit it, and said lightly: "You also know that our team's results are not as good as year after year, let alone the league champion, and the AFC Champions League qualification can't be touched, I do have the idea of leaving, but now that I'm 27, where can I go if I have a family and a job?" There is no European team that wants itself, and the old brother can only stay in the Chinese Super League. ”

Jiang Chen said: "No, I've heard in Italy that teams like Venice and Brescia want to bring you in, and there are one or two Serie A teams that seem to be interested in you." ”

Zhang Xizhe shook his head slightly and said: "That's because you have made a name for yourself in Italy, and some small newspapers want to take advantage of Chinese players to gain popularity, but they are all rumors that are not true." ”

Jiang Chen immediately said: "Brother Zhang, don't give up easily, according to your performance, there will definitely be many teams to introduce you." Paulinho is 30 years old, and he can still transfer from our Chinese Super League to the giant Barcelona, isn't he also playing well? Now that the European League has just ended, they have entered the off-season, and when the transfer market is active, maybe we can still hold up the banner of China's foreign army in the same league. ”

Zhang Xizhe nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, don't be poor, hurry up and clean up!" ”

In the following time, members of the national team came to the Borladon Hotel one after another to report, and after 8 o'clock in the evening, all the training personnel of the new Chinese men's football team arrived.

After the new Chinese men's football team members arrived, team leader Guo Bingyan immediately held the first assembly meeting regardless of the fatigue of the players.

Guo Bingyan is full of bureaucratic style, and he constantly stressed the importance of discipline, the necessity of unity, the enthusiasm of hard work, and the sense of responsibility to the country and the nation, always insinuating the rights of the Football Association, as well as the sacrifices and obligations that players should make.

To tell the truth, this meeting full of empty words lasted for nearly an hour and a half, which made the national football players so tired that they all had tinnitus, and it was not until after ten o'clock in the evening that the players returned to their rooms to wash and rest.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the Chinese immediately gathered and set off for the Xianghe training base to start this intensive training.

When the players came to the Xianghe training base, the staff of the base were already ready to greet them, and after the players settled everything in the base, they started their first group training in the afternoon.

In fact, when I saw Jiang Chen yesterday, some of the players had no expressions, but there was nothing mean and tricky.

Moreover, now Jiang Chen is much more cheerful than before, he can greet people when he meets them, and he can even chat a few words, plus he has a good relationship with the team's brother Zhang Xizhe, Jiang Chen's situation in this national team is reasonable.

And these players also know that although Lippi has led the team for a year, he has never ended the inspection of the players, so in the new national training camp, they must devote themselves to training, show the best competitive state, and impress Lippi, otherwise not only will he not have the opportunity to play this time, but he will not even be able to enter the next squad!

Judging from the training results in the past few days, Lippi is still more satisfied, at least the players have shown their due attitude.

However, it is only the attitude that is satisfied, and Lippi still does not buy the player's competitive level as always.

On the attacking line, Lippi needs the kind of player who has skill at his feet, and can hold the ball to complete the passing and cutting coordination, preferably with a certain amount of imagination and creativity.

Of course, this is due to the fact that they have not been in contact with the new tactics for a long time, and due to the lack of tacit understanding, Lippi is not in a hurry to produce results, he has a long-term plan in mind.

In the midfield, Lippi hopes to find the kind of metronome-type player who can control the rhythm and have a one-foot pass, so that the passing and cutting tactics in the front court can be fully activated.

In central midfield, he doesn't need the kind of scavenger who kicks straight forward as soon as he gets the ball, and such a player doesn't fit his tactical philosophy.

Before training, Lippi and the players repeatedly stressed this, and the players also said that they knew it in their hearts, but once they arrived at the training ground, many players still had the habitual thinking in their minds, how to play at the club and how to play now.

This made Lippi very angry, and at the same time labeled these players as failing in his heart, but in recent years, Chinese football has been extremely lacking in malleable talents, and Lippi has no choice but to sigh and persevere.

During this time, Jiang Chen's performance was very eye-catching, and his foot skills surprised Lippi, which was several notches higher than he imagined.

Moreover, Jiang Chen can pass the ball in the front court, can intersperse running, and kick overhead, which has quite high creativity and impact, which makes Lippi very happy.

The first training camp was not long, and a few days later, the Chinese men's football team ushered in the first game of the new national team match day, and it was also the last match day before the World Cup.

The Chinese men's football team will face the defending World Cup champion Germany in Changsha, a treasure of feng shui.

For this warm-up match, the German team attaches great importance to it.

After the German Football Association finalized the game, they affirmed that Germany would send the strongest squad to China to play, but also asked the Chinese side to play in a civilized manner and refuse all violence on the field, because the World Cup is very close, and they don't want to lose their troops before the competition.

And including appearance fees, food and accommodation, transportation training and so on, the German team made a large list to the Chinese Football Association.

There's no way, people are world champions, the rules have to be set by someone, and whatever you say is what, it's only to blame that the results of Chinese football are too bad, and the status of football is too low!
