Chapter 0246 FIFA Virus
Hach was relieved to see Arne cut the ball off.
After a little thought, Hahe suddenly realized-
Except for Sander, Schalke's forward line is not of much standard.
With the level of Arne and Manuel, it is not a problem to stop a counterattack at this level.
As for Sander himself, at the age of thirty, his physical fitness is not as good as before.
But with the collision, he was able to stop him from counterattacking with the ball.
Perhaps it was with this in mind that Dim made such a risky move!
For a moment, Hach actually had a kind of "learned!" "Thoughts.
The next moment, Hag was a little crying and laughing - Dyem might be even better than him if he were the manager, right?
On the other hand, Schalke 04's interim head coach Wilmots has a lot of complaints in his heart.
As a player, Wilmots spent the peak of his career at Schalke 04.
At Schalke 04, he led the team to a UEFA Cup and the German Cup last season.
In the Schalke all-time star rankings voted by Schalke fans, Wilmots is ranked fifth!
In the 02 World Cup, he represented the Belgian national team and broke through to the group stage and became one of the top 16!
And now, Wilmots has announced his retirement.
Moreover, it happened to be retired this season!
Having just retired as Schalke's head coach, it is clear that Schalke's previous results have not satisfied the team's management.
But halfway through the season, a hasty change of manager is not necessarily a good thing.
And, at this point, the really good managers are often already famous.
What's more, it's easy to accept a team that is in turmoil.
Under various considerations, the senior management of Schalke FC decided to remove the former head coach and let the retired Wilmots become the interim head coach.
As for the team's tactics, it is better not to change it drastically.
With Wilmots' prestige in the team, Schalke's results this season will not be too dismal, at least.
It has to be said that the Schalke top brass is quite right.
After Schalke changed the new coach, the players had a fresh feeling and worked a lot harder when they played.
In terms of results, Schalke is still at the top of the standings, which is the best proof of this.
However, the excellent results did not convince the adults in the management of Wilmots.
After all, as a head coach, he is still too "young".
What's more, Wilmots himself is not very interested in the position of head coach.
Now, Schalke 04 is actively contacting the famous coach Heynckes.
The German coach, who once led Real Madrid to Champions League glory, is now in charge of Bilbao.
Now, Heynckes is a little tired of being in Spain and now wants to return to China to coach.
In this way, the two sides almost hit it off.
Wilmots himself doesn't care about this, he has more ambitious goals and doesn't want to limit himself to football after retiring.
However, Schalke is where he made a name for himself, and Wilmots has a deep affection for it.
And now, Schalke is in a moment of crisis, Wilmots is helpless about it, and he feels very unwilling.
As a player, his level is not low, it should be said that it is very high.
But as a manager, his tactical level is not high, and it is only with prestige and personnel that he can barely control Schalke's teammates.
In this way, when the situation of Schalke is at a disadvantage, he has no idea what to do.
Of course, as a former star, Wilmots still has an eye.
Schalke now has a lot of problems both offensively and defensively.
There's Rost on the defensive side, so there's no need to worry about it for the time being, the problem is the team's offense.
Thinking of this, Wilmots looked at the bench and then fixed his eyes on Asamoah.
Subsequently, Wilmots hesitated.
Speaking of Asamoah, this player is quite famous.
Because, he was the first black player to be selected for the German national team.
The head coach who led Germany to the final in the 02 World Cup, Worrall, seems to be very fond of players like Asamoah, and has invited Asamoah to the German national team despite all the consensus.
It's an honour to have internationals in the squad.
On the other hand, the number of international players in the team is also a measure of the strength of the team.
But now Schalke is in a period of scarcity, and the overall strength of the team is not weak, but there is no real star.
In the 02 World Cup, even goalkeeper Rost couldn't get into the squad.
In front of him, Kahn and Lehmann were both ahead of him, and the remaining spot was held by Bayer Leverkusen's penalty goalkeeper Bute.
Therefore, Asamoah's inclusion in the German team is a very happy thing for the fans.
But now, Wilmots looked at Asamoah, but his heart couldn't be happy—
In the 02 World Cup, Germany fought to the final, which is something to be excited about, but it is also a troublesome thing.
The FIFA virus, a word that made many wealthy families smell it, also affected Schalke 04.
A giant team like Bayern, because the newcomers Ballack and Ze Roberto have spent a lot of energy in the World Cup, did not even pass the group stage in this season's Champions League!
Schalke naturally does not have as many internationals in the team as Bayern, but the loss of an Asamoah is enough for Schalke 04.
At least, Wilmots couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at Asamoah at this time.
In all fairness, as a black player, Asamoah is not at a low level, but more importantly hardworking and physical.
But no matter how good the physical fitness is, playing all year and not having a break, it is a serious challenge to the health of the players.
Asamoah is so tired that he must rest!
If Asamoah was on the field now, Aachen would definitely not dare to use tactics like this!
But Wilmots also knew that such assumptions made no sense.
In the end, Wilmots could only turn his head to the position of the court and continue to watch the situation on the field with concern.
Seeing this, Wilmots suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
“tooooooooooooooor!!!”
“0:1! It was Zhuo who scored the goal! ”
"A wonderful kick in the world wave, Rost can't do anything about it!"
"Schalke can't hold it, and it can't attack, this game is enough to make people question the quality of their strong team!"
"How about saying that Aachen is an alchemy stone to test the quality of a strong team?"
"No, it's not Aachen who can test the quality of the strong team, but Zhuo!"
The commentators' comments were victorious, but Wilmots couldn't hear them.
He just watched Zhuo Cunzhi running and celebrating in a daze, and his heart was gloomy.
