Chapter 275: A New Position

Kaiserslautern will be testing their training through a series of friendly matches before the main event begins, as they prepare for the upcoming First Division.

Time ticks forward, and it never stops. With the Bundesliga just about to kick off, this important event seems to be in a contradiction for everyone in Lautten:

They are hungry for time to go a little faster and see the real top league, a league they haven't had for four years! At the same time, the fans are desperate to slow down the time they run, and they are afraid that their team will suffer a painful lesson because they are not ready.

Until everything is revealed, everything is uneasy.

The "Bundesliga Red Devils" in the pre-season warm-up games are the national team FSV Frankfurt, the French Ligue 1 Metz, the Premier League giants Liverpool, the French youth cradle Auxerre, and the Scottish team Aberdeen, all of which are more representative teams.

Judging from the quality of the opponents in the warm-up match, it is very good, and the difficulty and ease of matching are relatively reasonable. The first opponent is relatively weaker than the last opponent, which is also in line with some training rules.

The strongest of these opponents is of course England's giants Liverpool, who were the strongest team in England and even the strongest in Europe during the League One period before the Premier League was formed. It seems to be Kaiserslautern's luck to play against such a team, and it is a real test of their quality.

Both teams wore red jerseys, and they have left a strong mark on the history of their respective teams, and the myth of Kaiserslautern against the Istanbul Miracle seems to be a "double red meeting" in another sense?

In Ni Tu's intuitive impression, the quality of the opponents in this season's friendly matches has indeed improved significantly compared to the opponents of last season, and the vast majority of teams are well-known teams in their respective leagues. It seems that he can be promoted to the Bundesliga, which makes the reputation of the "Bundesliga Red Devils" bullish.

Of course, the friendlies are all in preparation for the main game, which proves that the Bundesliga is not comparable to the Bundesliga that Kaiserslautern has experienced before, and there is no doubt that it is a lot higher, just like several friendly opponents before the season.

To be honest, in order to cope with the unknowns and challenges of the new season, Ni Tu is now a little eager to try, and he wants to test his actual ability and his team's ability through these friendly matches, and whether he can adapt to the new challenges.

"Come on!" Ni Tu cheered himself up in his heart, as if he was facing a huge challenge.

He is now training with his teammates on the training ground, and they are practicing to strengthen each other's offensive coordination skills. Due to financial constraints, the team has been lacking a good winger, and Kurz has no choice but to regularly arrange Ni Tu to play on the right wing.

Given that Ni Tu is more accustomed to playing with his left foot, it would be practical to put him on the right wing, and he could cut inside like Robben, if he had the ability of Robben......

"Ni Tu, what I can promise you in the new season is that as long as you don't get injured and as long as you keep this positive attitude, there will definitely be a place for you in the starting 11...... But you also know that we can't bring in a good wide player in a short period of time, and I can't really guarantee that you will be able to play as a regular striker or a winger in the new season. ”

Ni Tu continued to play on the flanks in this game, with a new striker partnered by Rakic and Serie A side Napoli on loan Hofer, while backup striker Nemaker was on standby.

Kurtz repeatedly asked Ni to cut inside more during training, apparently trying to make the most of his technical prowess and his good long-range shooting.

Having spent most of last season playing in the number nine and a half position, Ni Tu is more accustomed to staying in the middle, and in the actual playing process now, this small inertia that he has never noticed before has begun to work, and he is now trying to adapt to different ways of playing.

In fact, at the beginning of last season, Kurtz also wanted to let him play the left winger position, considering the reality of Ni Tu's thin body, and later because of Sam's presence and the problem of Jane Dedrysek on the forward line, he was finally fixed to the number 9 and a half. He's done relatively well in the second division, but who knows what will happen in the first division?

It will take some time for Rakic to get used to his new partner in training, and at this time he misses Ni Tu, who is destined to pull the side often, and Ni Tu is obviously more adaptable than himself, and in Rakic's eyes, Ni Tu has now gradually found his feeling on the side.

But Ni Tu didn't think so, he still felt a little rusty, and he was a little awkward to kick the ball...... Yes, he has the potential to be a right midfielder, he's got good pace, he's got good technique and his long-range shots are some of the best in the team, but it does take time.

If football becomes a profession, it is not as casual as you can be a goalkeeper when you are physically exhausted and a striker when you are physically strong.

"Hey, Ni Tu, don't forget to pass me a few more balls when it's time for the game, with your help, I may be able to win the league Golden Boot!"

During the break, Rakic's side moved closer to Ni Tu and took the initiative to chat with his Chinese friend.

Ni Tu also sighed that his friend would have such a big tone, he didn't laugh at Rakic, but said: "Then you have to come on, there are countless excellent strikers in the entire First Division, such as me!" ”

As soon as Rakic heard this, he immediately responded: "Yes, you are thicker than my skin!" ”

After saying this, before Ni Tu could respond, Rakic added again: "But in my eyes, you are indeed an excellent striker and reliable partner!" ”

Rakic admitted Ni Tu, he recognized that Ni Tu is quite qualified as a striker, which is the result of a season of verification, the two have become more and more tacit in the league, Ni Tu even achieved 10 goals and 10 assists......

But in his subconscious, perhaps he thinks that other people in the league don't see it that way, Ni Tu is too young, and he is a Chinese, this is the First Division!

Ni Tu didn't say much, but told his friend Rakic: "Training is going to start again, prepare well, we are facing countless powerful opponents, we have to practice kung fu to defeat them!" ”

Rakic shrugged his shoulders and said softly: "This Ni Tu is becoming more and more ambitious!" ”
