Rejecting the invitation to the national team again is still Lu Wei's head.

The situation between him and Yumo is completely different, and it can even be said that it is the complete opposite!

Start the game, run in with each other, actively adapt, change each other's old habits, and study the factors that produce chemical reactions

Ferguson watched these things with great interest, neither giving him advice nor encouraging him. In the team's two games of one loss and one draw, Lu Wei's performance was not good, but when the local media were a little overwhelmed, the old man found a familiar reporter and cleverly led the topic.

"We, who is thin, doesn't meet my usual employment standards, and he's a little too young. But there are always exceptions, and I want to try to see if I can inject a little quick element into the team. ”

This passage is both true and deceptive.

Teams are experimenting with new tactics and players are adapting to new systems, so it's not uncommon for results to fluctuate. As an 18-year-old newcomer, Lu Wei will definitely need time to adapt to when he first arrives. As a result, it's not surprising that individual and overall performance is mediocre.

However, since it is an experiment, there is a possibility of failure. Naturally, Red Devils fans don't want to see the team draw a tiger and not be a dog, and the opponents certainly want them to make a difference and laugh generously. Therefore, the uncertainty in the old man's words is audible, and the speculation and discussion caused by this will divert the attention of followers to a large extent.

Time and atmosphere, these two elements are the conditions he strives to create for Lu Wei.

Compared to Arsene Wenger, Ferguson's desire to control the dressing room is not a star. His attitude was there. The bigwig-level guys in the team can only slander in their hearts, and they don't dare to have any doubts on their faces.

Schmeichel, Keane. Erwin, these old fellows are used to obeying every command of the old man. Manchester United's Class 92, which is also the backbone of the team, looked at Lu Wei differently because of the relationship between Beckham and Youmo, and provided a lot of help in integrating into the team.

The only thing that is a little unhappy is the Red Devils' double striker York, Cole, who is known as the "Black Wind Twins".

Once the midfield doesn't work, the two get far fewer chances. In the first three rounds, the opponent is not strong. The Reds' attacking group have scored just three goals, and that is a sign of results that has not been a bad score.

However, Manchester United is not an international mercenary. It's nice for two black players to have a place in the locker room, and if you want to make a difference or something, you need to consider the iron fist of the old man first.

Lu Wei's attitude was the same as before.

Low-key, persistent, and seems a bit self-serving. It's actually not that hard to get along with. The language barrier led him and his teammates to use football as a medium. Use competition to express a professional attitude.

Even if such a guy cannot win the favor of the majority, there is no possibility of being rejected collectively. The old man's attitude was there again, and the players naturally regarded him as a member of the team.

When the call-up order for the national team was issued, Manchester United also dispersed, leaving only substitutes and reserve players. After Lu Wei refused the call of the national team, he did not choose to train on his own. He approached Ferguson on his own initiative and asked to take part in training and games with the reserves.

If you don't go to the national team to the reserve team, this kind of thing is really surprising to the old man.

The conflict between the club and the national team has been going on since ancient times. As the helm of the club team, they all want their disciples to have the strength of the international team but will never be called up by the national team.

Of course, this kind of thing can only be thought about.

The national brand team represents the support of the country to which it belongs. Fame and fortune aside, the World Cup, the Olympic Games, and the continental cups, these championships are also one of the goals that players dream of.

Lu Wei's specific situation Ferguson has carefully understood and knows the origin of his and You Mo's grievances with the domestic football association.

The final conclusion is not difficult to come to an end.

As one of the bannermen of Asian football, this guy can't always be absent from the national team. Whether it's the Asian Cup, the Olympics, or even the World Junior Championships, friendly matches, he will be called.

The old man was pleasantly surprised by the results in front of him.

The level of the reserve team is obviously a cut below that of the first team, but both the characteristics of the players and the tactical style of play are carried out in accordance with the usual style of the manager.

Lu Wei was cultivated by the old man as the core of the future midfield, and his current level and adaptability need to be further improved in order to meet the requirements of the first team. In this situation, he took the initiative to actively adapt to the lower-level team, and the effect should not be underestimated!

Compared to him, You Mo's situation was much more embarrassing.

Not to mention the club, the invitation grade of the national team is also different.

Lu Wei was summoned by the official form, and there was no emotional inclination between the lines. There were a lot of teachers on You Mo's side, first Zhu Guanghu, then Yan Shiduo, and finally even Wu Shao's group was alarmed, and made a transatlantic phone call to chat with him.

Moreover, in addition to him, Zhou Xiaofeng has also become a breakthrough, which is regarded by many insiders as a breakthrough to save the country.

If you want to resist such an offensive, you will lose if you are a little weaker!

At night, in the yard.

Zhou Xiaofeng and You Mo paced casually, chatting as they walked.

Although it is a villa area, it is not far from the bustling city center, and if you look up a little, you can see the bustling scene as if it were another world.

Unfortunately, everything there was not very attractive to the two people who were walking.

"The decision to be made this time is no less influential than it was at that time. You have been in the circle for a long time, and you should know that this kind of thing can easily be used as a weapon against you by people with intentions. ”

Zhou Xiaofeng did not mean to persuade, but just sorted out the cause and effect of the matter a little, and the conclusion reached at this time was not optimistic.

"Yes, the Chinese are not more particular about everything. The first time was when we insisted on playing abroad, the second time was that I didn't agree to hold a low-key wedding, and now it's the third time, and it's inevitable to be targeted. You Mo's tone was calm, and so was his facial expression.

Such a reaction made Zhou Xiaofeng feel at ease.

"Spirited people. You will unconsciously deviate from the direction you were supposed to go. People who have achieved great things can endure a moment of unhappiness. Although you and Lu Wei are young, they have been ahead of all football players in China and even in Asia over the years. Therefore, it is normal for there to be a gap between thinking and cognition. I hope you don't take it too seriously. ”

You Mo smiled, noncommittal.

"If your group of people back then could come out, the country should not be at the current level."

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaofeng paused for a moment, and then sighed lightly and said: "In the early eighties, a batch of good seedlings emerged, but unfortunately they were swayed by reality and failed to develop further in the end. A lot of them are like me. Don't give up, become a coach, and see if you can realize your dream. ”

"Su Yongshun. Gu Guangming, Chen Jingang, Shen Xiangfu, Rong Zhixing. Wu Qunli. By the way, there are two of them who are sent to study abroad, Liu Haiguang and Jia Xiuquan, who have been to Yugoslavia to play football, right? ”

Such an answer made Zhou Xiaofeng gasp.

How could this guy know so much?

"You were also a party to the '5.19 incident' that year, right?" You Mo didn't care about the state of the people around him, and continued to talk to himself.

Zhou Xiaofeng was stuck in the cold air and coughed.

Yumo's one-man show continues.

"It's a pity. It is said that you can win at least four-goal matches, and if you draw to qualify. was kicked 2:1 by the Hong Kong team, and it was one step away from the Mexico World Cup. ”

"It was the first time in China that there was a mass disturbance after a sports competition, and it seems that more than 30 police officers were injured and more than 130 fans were detained. Liu Xinwu also deliberately wrote two reportages that year, "May 19 Long Shot" and "Tilted Football Field", which left rare visual materials for this incident. ”

"It is said that the head coach at the time, Zeng Xuelan, resigned after the game?"

Zhou Xiaofeng gradually eased up, didn't speak, and sighed first.

"yes, you know that in detail. That's right, he said that in the pre-match preparation meeting, we were asked to score 15 minutes before the game. Now that I think about it, if I didn't have that kind of background, if I didn't have that kind of words, I wouldn't have played that game. ”

Yu Mo stopped and stretched.

"Well, domestic football lost on the words 'quick success', and it has been like this since then."

Zhou Xiaofeng finally had a smile on his face.

Before he could say his plan, he was said unmistakably by the other party after being circled by the other party. This kind of thing is other than smiling and sighing, he really doesn't know what else he can do.

'Arsenal's current problems are the same as in domestic football. I have enough time and patience to wait for the moment, don't worry. ”

The two guys who couldn't come out after a long time were unsurprisingly subjected to all kinds of abuse from fans, as well as unanimous verbal criticism from the domestic media. Even "Sports", which has always been inclined to them, could not hide its disappointment after this incident came out.

In Liu Nan's view, the competition itself is not attractive, but refusing to return again means a problem of attitude. He felt that the two might be resentful because the national team did not call them back to participate in the World Cup, so in the new issue of "Sports", it was rare to stand on the side of the Football Association and express their opinions.

"No team can tolerate an individual above the collective. This is a matter of principle, and it cannot be changed because the individual is strong. ”

"There are many unsatisfactory aspects of domestic football, but after all, we are Chinese, and we have all been nurtured in this land. Having worked on this project, there is no reason to refuse the opportunity to serve the country. ”

"The inaction at the World Cup proves that our country is still far behind the world in terms of football. But the more backward you are, the more you can't avoid it, and the more you feel ashamed, the more you must unswervingly find out the problem and solve it! ”

"Now our players are starting to go abroad and look for opportunities to improve their quality even further. It's very encouraging that they are finding their place in the world-class high-level league with their hard work. ”

"Only with communication can we find out the shortcomings faster, and with comparison, we can know how big the gap is. The national team embodies the hopes of the people of the whole country, and the support given by the state is unprecedented. In this case, show what you have learned, communicate with each other, and help each other. This is the basis for moving forward together. ”

"The two of them have proven themselves in the Bundesliga and now it's time to return to the national team and serve their country with action."

"To make such a choice at such a time, where is the expectation of the people of the motherland?!"

Such a comment is reasonable, well-founded and highly grounded, and it is difficult for both industry insiders and ordinary fans to hide their indignation after reading it. As an authoritative media with a neutral point of view, such comments spread quickly.

As a result, the national discussion caused by the return of the World Cup once again set off a high tide, and the two fell from the image of saviors to the bottom and returned to the state of street rats.

In the midst of the noise, Bobby Horton was a little depressed.

As soon as he took office, he was released by someone, and no one was happy, especially when the laborers were persuaded by the public. He felt that not only was he unlucky, but he also owed a lot of favors because of it.

He came to China once in 96 years, and he had contact with the Football Association at that time, but then he failed to become the head coach of the national team only because the environment was not very mature. Now that he has taken over the coaching whip from Qi Wusheng, he ran around at the first time, wanting to pave the way for the two guys to return to the national football team.

As a result, the road is flat, and people are reluctant to come!

This rare thing happened right in front of his eyes, and he was inevitably a little disheartened.

As a veteran football player in England, he knows better than any Chinese how much energy the two guys have.

Without them, the level of the national football team will at most revolve around Asia, and this year's East Asian semifinals, next year's Asian Cup and Olympic qualifiers will become his obstacles. Once the two are willing to listen to him, it is not surprising that the dream of winning the Asian Cup, the dream of sprinting to the Olympic championship, and even the dream of the quarterfinals of the World Cup will be realized.

Now what?

"Actually, these two are just a little bit more individual, and they're not as difficult to manage as you've heard. I have taken them for three years, and they are very pleasant with each other, you just need patience and trust, and you will naturally receive a satisfactory return. ”

In the VIP room of a hotel in Beijing, Zhu Guanghu, assistant coach of the national team, is patiently explaining to the new head coach.

'You're British, you definitely know more about Arsenal and Manchester United than we do. Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson, two of the most decorated coaches, have looked at them differently and taken good care of them, which shows that they still have high potential for growth. It's just a warm-up game, they've only been in the squad for a short time, so it's definitely going to take a while to get used to."

Bobby Horton breathed a sigh of relief.

He had actually understood what Zhu Guanghu said in advance, and he had guessed this possibility. But the coaching staff, the staff, and the XX leaders around him had the same evaluation and tone, so he had to carefully consider another possibility.

If it's really what they say, then what?

"What about the World Junior Championships, what are their plans?"

As soon as such a question was thrown, Zhu Guanghu was suddenly a little stuck.

Good for a while.

"I don't know, from what I know about them, it's a bit hanging."

Bobby Horton was not surprised by this result.

The senior national team is not very attractive to them, let alone the national youth team.

"At the World Junior Championships, you were the head coach, right?"

"Yes. It was a thrilling game, both on and off the field, like a battlefield. ”

"Tell us their story?"

"Okay" (to be continued......)
