Chapter 32 The national team competition is coming
Fan Bizhuang's extremely confident (arrogant) remarks were put on the news section by major media the next day, which naturally caused a lot of scolding from Barcelona fans.
However, it made many of his supporters excited, what kind of idol there is, what kind of fans, most of Fan Bizhuang's fans are young and enthusiastic, the idol's posture of not putting all opponents in his eyes, and being self-respecting in the sky and on the ground is exactly what they want, which naturally caused many people to scream with excitement.
Fan Bizhuang did not focus on this aspect anymore, but set his sights on another field.
After the 23rd round of La Liga, the league has temporarily entered a break period, and the national team break day has arrived, and the five major European leagues have all made way for the national team.
In the previously announced list of the Spanish national team's training camp, Fan Bizhuang's name is prominently listed.
This is the fourth time that Fan Bizhuang has been selected for the national team list, the first two times for various reasons Fan Bizhuang did not respond, did not report to the national team, and the third time, after communicating with Bosque, the misunderstanding was gone, Fan Bizhuang was determined to join the Matador Army, but because of the sudden blow, the state fell to the bottom, so he missed many previous World Cup qualifiers.
Now, Van Bizhuang has returned to the throne and proved that he is back in form with a number of outstanding performances in a row, and his performance has impressed the current Spanish coach Bosque, so his name is once again on the call-up list.
Although the World Cup qualifiers have all ended, and this time the selection is only to participate in a friendly match between the national teams, and there is not much substance, and it is more of a practice, but the selection of Fan Bizhuang still makes Spanish fans full of expectations.
"It's really hard to imagine that the assist king of La Liga, the best newcomer in La Liga, the top scorer in the league and the Champions League last season, has never worn the national team jersey before? Is the threshold for the national team too high, or is the morale of the players too high? …… Either way, it's incredible! ”
"Thankfully, this time, Fan was finally able to put on the bullfighting robe, and he will fight for the bullfighting legion!"
"After all kinds of setbacks and tribulations, Fan finally became a member of the national team. Hopefully he can perform like the club, he can do anything, and no one can stop him from moving forward! ”
"Van has already proven his worth in club competitions and now he is going to continue his conquest on the international stage!"
"Looking forward to Van scoring his first goal for the national team against Belgium!"
……
Because it was just a warm-up friendly match, there were many young new faces in the national team squad this time, and it is clear that Bosque is making final preparations for the summer World Cup, hoping to pick out more capable new blood for Spain.
This time, there are many veterans of the European Cup, but such as Jesus. Navas, Diego. Capel, Juan. Mata, Fan Bizhuang...... These young players are participating in the national team training camp for the first time, and it is foreseeable that these newcomers will play an important role in this friendly match.
This is also the purpose of the training, and Bosque has decided to select more talents for the national team in the final period of his journey to South Africa.
Although he is a newcomer to the national team, Fan Bizhuang does not feel any discomfort and unfamiliarity with the new environment, the reason is that he has been in La Liga for several seasons, and most of the players are not familiar with it, at least he has played a few times, especially in the national team, his old acquaintances are quite a few.
The Spanish national team has always been formed with players from Real Madrid and Barcelona, and these two teams are the top two giants in Spain, and it is normal for the national team to send a lot of talent.
Needless to say, players such as Casillas, Albiol and Arbeloa are teammates of Fan Bizhuang at Real Madrid, and they can't be more familiar. The other camp, the Barcelona camp, also has many candidates, Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets...... Although he has not played alongside most of the Barcelona players, Van Bizhuang himself came out of the La Masia training camp, not only knows these people, but he is also very familiar with Barcelona's passing coordination, so there is no problem in integrating into their system.
I am extremely familiar with the playing system of Real Madrid and Barcelona, in the national team formed with these two teams as the team, Fan Bizhuang does not have much run-in problem at all, coupled with the cooperation of former club teammates Capdevilla, Cazorla and others, Fan Bizhuang is very fast to integrate into the national team system, whether it is in training or confrontation matches, Fan Bizhuang's performance is very good, there is no trace of him being a newcomer to the national team, uninformed fans see it, maybe they will think that Fan Bizhuang is the old oiler of the national team, Otherwise, how can it be so complementary to the national team.
Among the newcomers, Fan Bizhuang can be said to stand out from the crowd, and his overall run-in with the national team makes Bosque, as the coach of the national team, nod his head again and again.
'He's the most improved player I've ever seen, he's not uncomfortable at all in this team, he's familiar with every team-mate, he's got a good idea of how we play, and that's what helped him play better. I am confident that he will shine on the international stage. ”
The day before the friendly match against Belgium, Bosque announced the starting line-up for the next day's game, and Van Bizhuang was on the list, replacing Barcelona striker David. Villa, who became the starting striker of the Spanish team, will play the match between Van Bizhuang and Fernando. Torres partnered up to form the front line.
Although it is a friendly match, many veterans of the national team know that this game will be a stage for newcomers to show themselves, but only one newcomer who can get the starting position is Fan Bizhuang, which is somewhat surprising, and the newcomers are even brighter and worship Fan Bizhuang's new life.
The world of football is about strength, but the national team is different, strength alone is not enough, this is a place that pays attention to seniority.
Obviously, the strength shown by Fan Bizhuang in the league and training is enough, as for the "seniority", this is a big problem for other newcomers, but for Fan Bizhuang, it is not a problem, with the support of Real Madrid stars, the Barcelona camp is with the support of Puyol, and there are no superfluous opinions, as for the players of other small clubs, they do not have much say - even if they have the right to speak, they will not have any opinions, Fan Bizhuang as a newcomer, but can get a starting position in the national team, It's also an incentive for them. Fan Bizhuang can do it, as long as they work hard, they can naturally do it.
It's like a hope, and no one is going to break it with their own hands.
"Congratulations, Fan!"
"I'm not surprised by that. In fact, if it weren't for the previous series of things, Fan, you would have been sitting in the main position of the national team a long time ago. ”
"Fan, take out the momentum of your crazy goal at the club, let the fans all over the world open their eyes to see, there is only one Fan in the world, and you are the most unique one!"
After the eighteen-man list was announced, Casillas and other Real Madrid players all sent their blessings to Fan Bizhuang.
After recovering from form, Fan Bizhuang has conquered his club teammates with super ability, and now in the national team, Fan Bizhuang is naturally labeled as the Real Madrid camp, this is his own person, and the Real Madrid players naturally want to send him blessings and teach some "experience" of the national team.
The most important thing is that the Real Madrid players may not be unconvinced in their bones. In this Spanish national team, it sounds good to say that Real Madrid and Barcelona are evenly divided, but in fact, there are many Real Madrid players who can sit in the main position, but most of them are in the backfield, that is, they dominate the defense line at the rear.
Barcelona's players, on the other hand, control the attacking line in the midfield.
It is an indisputable fact that the most striking and revered positions on the football field are clearly not defenders, and in attack and defense, more people tend to cheer for the goalscorer, which is a natural disadvantage for defenders.
In the 2006 World Cup and the 08 Euro Cup, the offensive line led by the Barcelona camp can be described as infinitely beautiful, and some media and fans even nicknamed the Matador Army as the "Catalan team", which proves how much the Barcelona camp is out of the limelight.
And now, Fan Bizhuang has become the starting striker of the national team in this game, which somewhat makes the unhappy Real Madrid stars have a sense of relief, the "Catalan team" does not advocate attack, is it not very capable of scoring goals?
Ha, I'm sorry, this time, the striker is our Real Madrid, even if you still occupy the central axis, you can't only honestly deliver cannonballs for our people, the goal will be Fan Bizhuang, it will be our Real Madrid!
Fan Bizhuang smiled and nodded, for such a "open and secret fight", he was naturally open in his heart. In fact, any club, any national team in the world, there will be all kinds of small camps, there will be all kinds of camps.
There is a saying in China that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and this is the truth.
Many teams, in fact, look strong on the outside, but because of internal division and intrigue, the combat effectiveness is not outstanding, and the Spanish national team before the new century, this is the case, they have excellent players and excellent coaches, but they have never been able to achieve outstanding results in international competitions, in addition to the talent gap, serious internal friction is also one of the reasons that restrict Spain's achievements on the international stage.
So, at this point, both Aragonés and the current head coach Bosque have done a good job, they have balanced the struggle between the two largest factions of the national team, Real Madrid and Barcelona, and at the same time give the outstanding players of the small club a certain opportunity, so although the situation of infighting still exists, it is under control, which makes the Spanish national team, which is not too strong, at least not too much contradiction, and the whole team is capable of working together.
Fan Bizhuang knows very well what he decided to join the Spanish national team for, and in order to achieve good results in the national team, he naturally will not do anything to split the team. Of course, he has no objection to the "suggestions" of his Real Madrid teammates, he will not let the Barcelona players specialize in the past, he didn't come before, and now he comes, then this team, the most beautiful person will only be one person - that person is him, Fan Bizhuang!
