Chapter 0156: The Current Situation at Leverkusen

"Do you want to train together today?" Zhuo Cunzhi sent an invitation to Ribery.

"That's how you like training?" Ribery asked rhetorically.

Since he came to Aachen, he has never seen Zhuo Cunzhi untrained.

You know, in Germany, where the atmosphere is quite open, there are people who go to the bar almost every day.

Although Ribery values his daughter-in-law very much, he is not a person who can control himself because he is from a poor background.

Within a few days, he was part of the Aachen nightclub group.

But after all, he just played in the Bundesliga, and Ribery still knew how to be restrained, and when Zhuo Cunzhi was training, there were many times when Ribery was also together.

'I've been a little more understanding of free-kicks lately, so I wanted you to do me a favor.' Zhuo Cunzhi explained.

Shunsuke Nakamura's free-kick footwork, he can't absorb it all for the time being.

But the opponent's understanding of the free kick quickly made him gain a lot.

To put it simply, there are more holes in the defence and more free-kick routes to choose from.

But if you really want to talk about it, there is a limit to the role that a free kick can play by the penalty taker alone.

If you can treat free-kicks as a tactic and let your teammates cooperate with you when you take a penalty, it can make a big difference.

However, through Shunsuke Nakamura's experience, Zhuo Cunzhi learned more about the posture of taking free kicks, but his teammates didn't know it.

He is also going to mention it to Hahti and ask his team-mates to integrate the tactical coordination of free kicks again.

But before that, he needs to pre-arrange to see how far he can take his free kicks now, and how much he can play with those memories and experiences in his mind.

When there is growth and improvement, and then let the coach arrange teammates to cooperate, it will be twice the result with half the effort.

Otherwise, if he doesn't have a mature idea, let the team cooperate with him to train for free kicks, if there are real results, it's good to say, if not, it will inevitably be gossiped.

Fortunately, Ribery was also interested in Zhuo Cunzhi's words, so he stayed to help.

With the addition of Bernd and Joao, it can barely be regarded as a training free-kick tactic.

However, the last round against Cottages has only just passed, and there is only a week between the second and third rounds.

It didn't take a few people to train a little bit to make a difference, and Aachen ushered in the away game against Bayer Leverkusen.

At home stadium, Bayer Leverkusen's players are playing very seriously.

They were drawn in the previous two rounds, and as the king of Sanya last season, such a start is really difficult for fans to accept.

In the eyes of fans, even if the core of the team, Ballack and the main player Ze Roberto, are all gone, it should not be such a performance.

In this regard, Leverkusen's current head coach Topmueller also has a headache.

Ballack and Ze Roberto, the two main midfielders, left, but his headache was the team's attacking ability.

Last season, Bayer Leverkusen's offense relied heavily on Ballack's ability to plug in.

Ballack's ability to win the Bundesliga Silver Boot last season is enough to prove Ballack's ability and Bayer Leverkusen's reliance on him.

And that's not all, after Ballack and their departure, the veteran Kirsten almost announced his retirement.

Kirsten has been playing for Bayer Leverkusen for 12 seasons and 19 in the Bundesliga!

Nineteen seasons, that is, nineteen years, but even last season, Kirsten was 37 years old and still scored 11 goals in the Bundesliga.

However, since ancient times, heroes have been like beauties, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world.

Kirsten, after all, is old, and the last time he and Bayer Leverkusen hit the championship, they could only end in failure.

Now that Barak and the others are gone, Kirsten has let go of the last of his thoughts and is quietly preparing to retire.

Then, the embarrassing thing came.

The 37-year-old veteran has retired, and Bayer Leverkusen doesn't know who to fill the void!

Simak can barely fill the void left by Ballack's departure, and with Schneider and Basturke, Bayer Leverkusen's midfield is still among the best in the Bundesliga.

But the striker offered it, and Neuville was left alone.

The youngster Berbatov is certainly amazingly talented, but he is too lazy.

Not to mention actively fighting back, even if it is two more steps, this young player who pursues this chic and demeanor is also unwilling.

His current strength is not very good, and he is already "playing a big name" like this, which really makes Topmuller want to press him on the bench.

It's just that, besides Berbatov, who else can you rely on?

Topmüller glanced at his players and couldn't help but sigh.

Weakness is a disease!

The point is that Topmüller also feels wronged, because Bayer Leverkusen should have had a chance to fill the void.

In the summer, everyone knew that Bayer Leverkusen were definitely leaving a couple of key players.

Their squad is simply too coveted, and with Leverkusen's heritage, it's hard to keep these great players, especially Ballack.

But since these guys at Bayer Leverkusen are leaving, they're always going to leave a lot of transfer fees, right?

So, is it possible to take the opportunity to extort a sum of money?

Many people have this idea, so after receiving the offer from Bayer Leverkusen, they all tacitly chose to continue to raise the price.

Anyway, if you sell those stars, there must be plenty of transfer fees.

In this regard, Topmuller can't wait to scold!

The key lies in Ballack, the superstar is really sorry for his old club in terms of transfer fees.

Both now and later.

Barlack's contract is approaching, but he has been slow to sign his new contract.

This is doomed to have to make him a free transfer if they don't sell Ballack for a low price.

The transfer fee of 6.5 million euros, although not as much as Ballack's real value, is better than nothing.

In comparison, Ze Roberto's transfer fee is much more normal, and it is also the highest transaction price for a Bundesliga transfer this season.

It's just that these two reinforcements really brought a lot of transfer fees to Leverkusen?

Simak has not achieved results in the Bundesliga, but he did well in the Bundesliga last season.

For such a midfielder, the transfer fee was crossed out by 8.5 million euros!

After getting the news, Topmuller really wanted to find his transfer manager with a pistol, ask him what he had done, and then advise him to hand over the black money he swallowed.

A Simak with a transfer fee similar to Ze Roberto?

It's funny, it's really funny.

But it really happened.

And that's not all, almost every team has tacitly chosen to increase the transfer fee price when faced with Leverkusen's offer.

In this regard, Topmuller couldn't wait to shout: "Leverkusen really has no money!" It's true! It's more real than real gold! ”

However, God is destined not to hear Topmüller, so the holes in Leverkusen's forward line still exist.

Only two goals were scored in the first two rounds, which is not in line with Leverkusen's quality no matter how you look at it.

Lucio, Basturk, Schneider, Neuville...... These players at Bayer Leverkusen are all star-level players!

Even if such Bayer Leverkusen is not in good shape, it is still no problem to beat Aachen, right?
