058 The final begins

Stevens was so angry with the media coverage that there was a lot of talk within the team. As soon as he sat down on the interview desk, he began to fire a cannon to take revenge.

"Someone deliberately put out fake news to cause trouble for my players. It's a conspiracy, someone is building momentum for the game, it's definitely a conspiracy. ”

"I think it's immoral for someone to do anything to win, or even spread false news, German football is at a low point, there must be these factors."

"Yes, you can guess who I'm talking about, and you can guess it, it's just the German Cup final. We already won the German Cup last season. Stevens sneered and said disdainfully, "Even if the other side has a conspiracy, they can't win the game, and I'm very confident that as long as it's the team I coach, I can definitely win against the young people of Hoffenheim." ”

"I don't have any contradictions with Wilmots, we have a good relationship. And I'm telling you, he's going to start in the German Cup final. I just want to show certain people and certain teams that off-the-board moves are useless. ”

'And Nemets, Asamoah and Boume, none of them will leave the team, they are all too young and could even end their careers at Schalke. Stevens swears.

'Finally, I would like to announce that Schalke 04 will definitely defend the German Cup, as we did last season.

The German media was quite surprised, Stevens was provoked by the media offensive of Jiangshan, and it was interesting to say that he must win.

The reporters were busy delivering news to Jiangshan and listening to what Jiangshan had to say.

German football is very flat, there are almost no mouthpieces before the game, and it has only made waves in the lower leagues after the arrival of the country in the past two years, otherwise it is a pool of stagnant water.

Jiang Shan smiled, "The media is independent, and it is impossible for us to influence the judgment of the media." Since they think that Schalke 04's players may leave, it is either the team that wants to sell people, or other teams want to buy people. What's so unexpected? Of course, I'm not going to talk about the names of specific players here, it's unethical, I can't do that. ”

"If there are rumours that my players are being targeted by a strong team, I will be proud, after all, we are only a team of De Southern United, I am responsible for the future of the players, and if they can land in a better league, I will definitely support it."

"I'm not going to force them to keep the team for the rest of their lives." "I don't think Mr. Stevens has enough respect for Hoffenheim to say that he will definitely defend the German Cup. ”

"Hoffenheim are a team of De Southern United, they are a team of the Bundesliga, that's the difference between Volkswagen Santana and Mercedes S-Class, we don't have an advantage."

'But we also have the ambition to win and to win we have to interfere with them off the pitch and have to put spikes all over the pitch to slow them down, they are so strong that we want to park a bus in front of the ball.

Jiang Shan said, laughed directly, shrugged his shoulders, and said that he was helpless.

It's not that we want to make so many off-the-board moves, it's that you are too strong, and we want to wrestle with our opponents, so we have to think of some other way.

He doesn't want to let go of Stevens yet, "Some people say it's a low point for German football, but I think German football is still very strong and this summer, the German national team will definitely reach the last four in Asia." ”

Jiang Shan once again showed his identity as a god operator, "Therefore, some people think that German football has been miserable by the media, which is not right!" ”

Nothing else was meant to refute Stevens's trough theory, and his words immediately attracted the attention of the media. German football is at a low ebb, everyone knows it, but the 2002 World Cup came back and reached the final.

Stevens knew Jiang Shan's statement, and hated it so much that the root of his teeth itched, this guy was young and had no one in his eyes, and he was hateful to home. But several players in the team are really fluctuating because of transfer rumors.

Wilmots didn't say anything, and Nemets and Asamoah also thought about leaving. Stevens gritted his teeth, started, and gave them all starts.

In the stands, Rothouse sat nervously next to Hope, "Boss. At that time, I was thinking that Jiangshan might not be able to be used, and the three-year contract was too long. Since there was a clause in the contract that I had to agree to when I resigned, I thought ......"

"As long as his coaching performance is not good, he will be forced to resign immediately, and he will not have to pay liquidated damages, right?" Hope said angrily, "Then he has good coaching results, why don't you hurry up and talk to him about a contract extension?" Still continue to use this flawed contract? ”

"This contract is actually beneficial to us." Rotthouse didn't dare to say much, wasn't it you nodding at the time? Now Jiangshan is ready to resign, and he is to blame him again, depressed.

"Jiangshan is also kind, I told you early to give you time to find a new coach, otherwise at the end of the season, we will be passive." Hope looked at the players who appeared in turn at the Olympic Stadium, "Jiang Shan brought the team to the Bundesliga and then to the final of the German Cup, which is already the biggest achievement. I'm embarrassed to blame him. ”

"How's Coach Stevens?" "Hertha Berlin wants to coach Stevens at the end of the season, and if we can cut it, we can make waves in Germany." ”

"Hmph, this old man is arrogant, he won't take a fancy to Hoffenheim."

Jiang Shan's hand shook with Stevens, "In front of the media, it is not a gentleman to speak ill of me directly." ”

"Nonsense, I'm not a hypocritical Englishman." Stevens was indignant, "I'm going to win the game, I'm going to slaughter." ”

"Be careful of being beaten back." Jiang Shan said with a smile.

"German Southern United, even if you are a Bundesliga team, there has never been a lower division team that has won the German Cup." Stevens sneered, "Your magic, it's over." ”

"I wish you success!" Jiang Shan shrugged and returned to his place.

The little girl next to the coach's seat was a little familiar, but she didn't expect the little girl to call out first, "Mr. Jiangshan-Cook, we meet again." I'm Anna! Thank you for signing on. I'll let you sign autographs later, but you're going to win the game! ”

Anna, a freckled girl, once grabbed his position as head coach. Tuchel covered his mouth and snickered next to him.

"Definitely, I'll have to sign it on your popcorn box later." Jiang Shan replied with a smile.

He looked at the field, and the players were picking sides. Schalke 04's starting lineup is quite strong, and goalkeeper Lake, who has conceded less than 30 goals this season, has been solid.

At the back were Heita, Wadoch, Hogdalham and Van Kirkhofen, with Nemetz at the back, Sander and Agaly up front, and Asamoah, Wilmots and Berme in ambush.

On Hoffenheim's side, Wiese certainly did not let the starting goalkeeper partner Hunter, Instrom and Hout's three-centre-back lineup.

The five midfielders Pandel, Larne, Kai, Hitzlsperge and Lahm are fronted by the duo of Didik and Kuranyi. Captain Dorant is on the bench.

Stevens saw Hoffenheim's starting lineup and frowned, what the hell? Stacking players in midfield? Main defense?
