Chapter 315: Klopp
Unlike the Dutch coach Louis van Gaal, who has already achieved success in the Bundesliga, Jurgen Klopp's giant manager does not seem to have fully proven himself, but no one denies his ability, and he seems to be just a trophy of enough weight to become a famous manager.
His side of Borussia Dortmund may have been unlucky in the first round, losing at home to a strong Bayer Leverkusen side, but they then went on a three-game winning streak as they crushed their opponents with passion.
The highlight of these was in the fourth round, when Dortmund defeated arch-rival Schalke 04 3-1 away.
In that game, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer fished three times from the goal, and Shinji Kagawa, an Asian player like Ni Tu, shone in this game, and his brace was the absolute hero of the Hornets' victory over Shakhtar.
Now, after a thrilling Ruhr derby, Klopp is full of confidence for the fifth round, and he never seems to be lacking in confidence.
"Kaiserslautern, a very good opponent!"
Unlike Van Gaal, Klopp did not take Kaiserslautern lightly in his mind, on the contrary, in his eyes, he put the opponent in this fifth round in the same important position as Bayer Leverkusen and Schalke 04.
Jurgen Klopp is not unpredictable and his belief is well founded that the head coach believes Kaiserslautern has the ability to change the course of the game.
The source of everything comes from a person, this person's name, if Klopp tells his players or the outside world, it will definitely cause huge controversy, this player's name is Ni Tu!
It is not difficult to understand that if the outside world knew that Klopp was so jealous of a recruit, they would definitely wonder if Klopp's head was Watt.
"He's not sick, is he? Who is Ni Tu? Does he have such abilities? That is, at the beginning of the season, this yellow-skinned monkey showed his face, and then the original form was revealed. This son is not to worry about! ”
The players will also be surprised by Klopp's remarks, but they are professionals and young talents after all, and Ni Tu has shown a certain amount of potential and strength before, and is not an unknown person.
They will think to themselves: "Maybe the head coach has a point, and only this Chinese has such potential in the whole Kaiserslautern." ”
It is precisely because of the youth that Dortmund's players are more likely to be angry, so even if they have a clear understanding of the intellect, they are not so easy to talk about in reality.
"Who has Lao Tzu served? No one is convinced, what's so great about this Ni Tu, I want you to look good when it comes to the game! Talented? Has there been a genius over me?! ”
Of course, Klopp clearly knows the law of his disciples' mood swings, and he is ready to take the opportunity to use the agitation method on his players, trying to use Ni Tu to arouse the players' competitive spirit and desire to win.
"You may not believe it, but I think this player named Ni Tu is an absolute genius, and how he managed to single-handedly get Kaiserslautern out of the second division? See how he single-handedly led the team to defeat Bayern Munich? He's a genius, you can't deny it! I dare to assert that he is better than many of us, and if you want to prove me wrong, then give me a real response with the performance on the field! ”
Klopp gets along with his players day and night, knows how to handle the relationship with the players, and usually accumulates friendship with each other, so that he can blurt out the curse at critical moments.
He understands that he can pull the big young players with one hand, so he can manage this team well and bring great glory to this club. Even if the glory is not yet in hand, everyone thinks it is only a matter of time.
Klopp attaches great importance to Ni Tu and Kaiserslautern, and he is afraid that the players will be as proud and underestimate the enemy as Bayern Munich, and if Bayern gets Bayern's illness without Bayern's life, Dortmund's situation will be dangerous.
Loose on the outside and tight on the inside, unlike the emphasis on the inside, Klopp has made a 180-degree turn to the outside world, and sometimes we really don't understand the thinking of this character coach.
When Klopp was interviewed by reporters before the game, he was mentioned by reporters Kaiserslautern's "rookie king" opinion, whether Ni Tu will have an impact on the next game, and how Dortmund will deal with him, the German uncle doesn't know what's wrong, but he said amazingly.
"Chinese? I don't think they're going to be able to produce any kind of talent, Kaiserslautern is a very difficult team, maybe this Ni Tu is good, but I think Kaiserslautern has other people who deserve our attention more than him, like their striker Rakic, like their midfielder Kirsch. ”
This is also a sentence that Klopp said when answering a reporter's question, which he regretted very much.
The reporter continued to ask him: "Aren't you afraid of hurting the hearts of the Chinese when you say this?" After all, you are the manager of Borussia Dortmund, and there are a lot of Dortmund fans in China. ”
Klopp sneered, he shook his head, waved his hand, and said: "I don't care about how many Dortmund fans there are in China, maybe they will be sad, I'm sorry, but it's not my business, and it doesn't matter much about our excellent results, I only care about Dortmund, I will only bring victory to the team." ”
When a reporter took the opportunity to mention that Dortmund had asked for Ni Tu in the summer, Klopp was stunned at first and secretly exclaimed:
"Why did Lao Tzu forget this one! Isn't that a slap in the face?! ”
So the rock coach smiled at the reporter and smiled: "Is there any? Why don't I remember? ”
The reporters are "gritting their teeth" below, not because of how unseen the figure sitting on the stage is, and they don't care whether Klopp really "insults China", or rather, they agree with this person's remarks very much, you know, hatred of China, contempt for China, the starting point of everything is that China has developed to the point that their country is afraid, and it is no longer the era when hundreds of people dared to attack Yanjing.
Reporters "grit their teeth", more because of excitement, they all rely on news attention to support themselves, what news is the most exciting, what news is the most sensitive, they are willing to report, they are not concerned about the news itself, they are concerned about money, they are no longer reporters.
Because of Ni Tu, several Chinese reporters also appeared at the press conference, these people really heard and witnessed the whole process of Klopp's remarks, and they really gritted their teeth, but the Chinese reporters dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, as if only at home they were the "uncrowned king", and in the world, they were more like sheep.
Klopp's original intention was to weaken the outside world's speculation about himself, he didn't want Kaiserslautern to know that he valued this Ni Tu, true or false, and from a tactical point of view, he might want to paralyze Kaiser.
He may have paralyzed many people, but he forgot about Ni Tu!
