As the game approached, Hoffenheim's training intensity continued to increase, and the players' physical accumulation became more and more thick.

Jiang Shan looked at the team's staffing, not to mention the backline, relatively stable, midfielders Hitzsperger and Larne defended a lot, and their performance was strong and strong, as if they were incarnated as a butcher in the midfield.

Kai changed his position, he is still adapting, he was born as a fullback, he did a good job defensively, the offensive organization was slightly inferior, Jiangshan arranged special training, especially the long pass in the counterattack, and practiced after the training.

Kai is also quite cooperative, taking the initiative to increase the amount of practice.

The three players in the front court adapt very quickly, Dorante's stake attributes remain the same, at the front of the penalty area, the left and right balls, Kuranyi and Didick are both fast masters, as long as Dorante's pass is in place, their back-insertion counterattack is quite sharp.

In particular, Kuranyi, who provides a one-stop service of dribbling, shooting and passing, is much higher than the average level of Denan United, and is quite too existent.

The new 4321 formation will not be a regular formation, and it is understandable to use it against strong teams, but most of the teams in Denan United are not as good as Hoffenheim, and they need to attack the formation.

However, the 4321 formation is run in, and the frontcourt players open up space and can switch smoothly between 4321 and 433, which is how it was played last season, and there is no big problem.

Of course, the midfield's defence will drop a notch, and Kai is under a lot of pressure and he doesn't have enough to get rid of. However, Jiang Shan thought clearly, Schweinsteiger is still in the team, the problem will not be exposed for the time being, and the team will definitely rush forward before Christmas.

Schweinsteiger's instigation and control are strong, surpassing any player in De South.

During this time, the formation run-in was on the right track, and the "hostile elements" led by Schweinsteiger and Draff were finally difficult to win.

This guy really thinks of himself as a striker.

After the game, the group continued to expand, and Hirtzsperberg began to practice set-pieces from the beginning of last season, and the threat of set-pieces had an effect at the end of last season.

The special training is Kai and Didick, one is to practice long passes and get rid of the spot, and the other is to practice long-range shooting.

Now there's Rahn and Hute again. Rahn continued to hone his ability to organise attacks and at the same time stepped up his long-range shooting practice, and he was physically strong and threatening from long range. And Hut, this thing is actually figuring out how to shoot...... Seeing this, Jiang Shan criticized violently, usually training to let you shoot from the forward, is to feel the choice of the striker on the field, the purpose is to let you understand how to defend the striker, you are addicted?

Hute's boxy face instantly turned embarrassed, he looked at Jiang Shan embarrassedly, and said tremblingly, "Coach ......"

Facing a 16-year-old child, Jiang Shan held back his temper, "I mean, think more, understand?" Shooting, defending shooting, that's what you think about. How do you control the sky on the pitch when you scramble for a header? I'm optimistic about you. ”

"Well, I'll try." Hutter nodded heavily.

Tuchel shrugged, "Does he understand?" Jiang Shan smiled bitterly, "Why don't you go and talk about it?" ”

"I'm going to grab the ball." Tuchel rushed to Kai, "Look at my German legs. ”

The effect of the team's training has emerged, and the players' morale has also been suppressed, we are just promoted horses, playing steadily, fighting for every game, and striving for the top ranking.

Jiangshan has always instilled in them the concept of promotion, the team is very strong, not weaker than the team of De Southern United, confidently do every move, cherish every wave of attacking opportunities.

The new season is about to begin, and the schedule for the 2001-02 season is scheduled, and the first game of the German South United will be against Bayern Munich Amateur, which is an affiliated team of the Southern Kings.

In Germany, many fans have criticised the existence of the second team, which often sends the main players of the first team to play important matches, which distorts the meaning of the game. Schweinsteiger's cheeks are hot, and he saw his old teammates in the first game?

Hoffenheim, meanwhile, qualified for the German Cup as one of 64 teams to qualify for the German Cup, thanks to Hoffenheim's unbeaten Baden-Württemberg league title last season.

The German Cup is the most important cup competition in Germany, and from last season, the Bundesliga teams also started from the first round to show fairness. However, the lottery rules are also simple, and it seems that they want to prevent the emergence of upsets.

In the first round of the draw, the numbered balls of the 18 Bundesliga and 14 Bundesliga teams were placed in the No. 1 draw box, which were all professional teams, seeded teams, 32 teams; In the second draw box, there are 24 numbered balls of amateur teams, Hoffenheim are amateur teams, and there are 4 numbered balls of promoted teams from the Bundesliga and 4 teams from the Bundesliga relegation, which is also 32 teams in total.

Numbered balls are drawn from the two boxes, played against each other, and the amateur team faces the professional team in the first round, and there are very few survivors, so there are almost no upsets.

The draw for the second to fourth rounds is the same as the first round, with two draw boxes divided according to the strength of the teams, and the teams in the second box have a home field advantage, which increases the income for the small teams.

The German Cup matches are all won or lost in a single game, so after four rounds, the top four teams have been decided.

"Final four?" Jiang Shan muttered, "With our strength, how much luck do we have to get into the top four?" Prepare to attend the draw ceremony. ”

He looked at Tuchel and felt that this was not a good luck, and he looked pitiful, forget it, let's go by myself!

At the same time, Draff's transfer is also nearing completion. Jiang Shan decided to get it done early, and he had a showdown with him after training, "The team has decided to let you go to Lübeck Club." ”

"What? Lübeck? Draff jumped, "Isn't it a Stuttgart kicker?" Their bid reached 2 million marks. ”

"I also want you to be a kicker, but the team also has to think about breaking even, you are an important player for us, we didn't want to sell, since you want to leave, the team has to sell for a high price for your career, for the sake of the team's income." "The value of a player is the embodiment of strength and respect for players." ”

"Lübeck FC has 3 million marks and they don't have enough midfield, so you can be the main force and be sincere."

Draff didn't know how to argue, he was at odds with the Stuttgart kicker, and he was in love with him, so he sent the transfer official announcement, but he didn't expect to kill Lübeck halfway. Although he is also a Bundesliga team, Lübeck is in Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost state of Germany, and has gone to Northern Europe, and he still wants to stay in the south.

'I don't want to go to Lübeck, I'll ask my agent to talk to the team.'

Jiang Shan sneered, revealing his murderous fangs, "You don't have a choice, this is your best choice." If you don't transfer, no problem, you have 3 years left on your contract and I'll keep you in the team. ”

The meaning is obvious, if you don't go, you have to go, go far, out of sight and out of mind, who likes to sell people to neighbor teams? When to hit a rake, you can't eat and walk around.

Draff was chilled, if he didn't give in, he would end up rotting on the bench, he was already 28 years old, how many years could he still play? offending the country, it seems that there is no good end. "This guy, hold a grudge."
