vs 145 Hodgson's troubles
(a)
There were no big upsets in the 31st round of the Bundesliga, and it was understandable that Bayer Leverkusen lost away to Stuttgart, and since Rene Adler was out injured, Bayer Leverkusen is now in a slump, and the claim that a goalkeeper is half a team, Bayer Leverkusen and their manager Heynckes clearly agree.
In the game between Hamburg and Mainz, they could play 2:0 with a substitute lineup, and as mentioned earlier, it was more summarized as luck, double star explosion, and some interpretations that the Hamburg players were stimulated to their potential in the face of adversity. Only Heynckes is a little interested in Chen Zhuo's tactics of arranging Vanney as a free man, but now Heynckes has no time to pay too much attention, what he has to do now is to ensure the top three positions, and how to stop the decline as soon as possible in the third round of Zuihou!
Leverkusen lost Stuttgart and beat the opponent in the Zuihou stage with one less player, and Stuttgart still led Hamburg in front of the table by one point.
Bremen also won, Bremen, who fell behind 1:2 in the first half, made a big show in the second half, scored three goals in a row to reverse 4:2, after this victory, it basically means that among the five teams competing for three places in Europe, Wolfsburg is basically out of the tournament in advance!
Bremen also won with 2 goal difference, they continue to lead Hamburg on goal difference, at the end of this round, Bremen scored 67 goals and conceded 39 goals, goal difference 28, Hamburg scored 55 goals and conceded 35 goals, goal difference 20, the two teams have a difference of 8 goals, there are 3 rounds left, the gap is still not small.
Borussia Dortmund drew and were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Hoffenheim, which was a small upset, with an increase of one point, 54 points.
With two wins in a row, Hamburg has reached 55 points, once again surpassing Borussia Dortmund in the top six.
Now Stuttgart has 56 points, Bremen and Hamburg have 55 points, Dortmund has 54 points, and the points of the four teams are still very tight!
Among the top three teams, Bayern scored 62 points in this round of 7:0 victory over Hannover, Schalke 04 gave up the top spot, but still maintained the suspense of winning the championship with 61 points by defeating Borussia Mönchenchen 3:1 in this round, and Bayer Leverkusen slipped to 57 points due to the defeat in this game.
For Stuttgart, Bremen and Hamburg, including Borussia Dortmund, after they got rid of Wolfsburg, they have now caught up with Bayer Leverkusen, not only three Europa League places, but also Champions League qualifiers, everyone can fight for them!

The next league fixture is on 24 April, away to Hoffenheim, and the two before this fixture, Hamburg host Fulham on 22 April for the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals.
Five days after the next league game, on April 29, Hamburg will travel to Fulham and then rush back to Germany to face Nuremberg on May 1.
Another devil's schedule, four games in ten days, and two away games, the league is a thrilling "six to protect six" battle, and the Europa League is only one step away from the final, which is still a difficult trade-off problem.
However, it is not completely without positive factors, many of the main players can return after injury, Hoffenheim and Nuremberg are only middle and lower teams, at least not with Stuttgart, Bremen, Dortmund and other opponents of the same level, the first leg of the Europa League Fulham can not even do the plane, to the train to reverse the car for fifteen hours, and then by April 29 basically the flight has been resumed...... That's all good news.
Of course, for Chen Zhuo, the biggest good news is that he tested this set of tactics that he was relatively satisfied with, and it did not attract too much attention from his opponents!
Although this tactic of "double hinge + double free man" will sooner or later attract the attention of various teams and think hard about coping strategies, but when it is ignored now, it is not a critical time to grab points!

For Chen Zhuo, the things that reassured him were the safe evacuation of Xiaomeng from the disaster area.
As a communication support jishu personnel, Xiaomeng and they fought for five days and nights, basically restored the signal smoothness of all communication base stations in the disaster area, especially within the golden seventy-two hours with their cooperation, the main base station and more than 90% of the disaster areas have achieved smooth wireless communication, and those blind spots that cannot be covered by wireless signals have also temporarily achieved basic communication support through communication vehicles, which provides convenience for the deployment and command of the entire rescue work and logistics and medical follow-up.
Xiao Meng, who has not slept for five days and five nights, and the rescue team she is in immediately withdrew to rest and be on standby after the task was completed.
For a person to sleep for five days and nights, there is a reason, in fact, in a certain year when the Yangtze River flood, the country on a small scale trial of a drug, this drug is through the biological jishu to stimulate the neurons of the brain, the user after receiving the intravenous injection of this drug, with some energy blocks and special food, can not sleep for up to 100 to 120 hours, and during this period will not produce endocrine disorders caused by insomnia.
This drug is still harmful to the human body, and the original research purpose was to use it for war, especially when the war broke out suddenly and during the stalemate period, it was common to have several days and nights without sleep, and the main original intention of studying this drug was to keep the core combat units and middle and senior commanders and fighters awake and combat effectiveness.
Later, this drug was discovered, and it is also very useful in some very urgent disaster rescue, especially in the golden seventy-two hours, if an experienced rescue team member maintains enough sobriety and physical strength, it can save more lives!
However, after this short-term overdraft, in addition to catching up on sleep, it will take at least a month to adjust through nutrition and exercise before it can completely recover.
Chen Zhuo's mother and Xiaomeng's mother are both medical personnel in the army, which is a major secret for ordinary people, but for a family like Chen Zhuo, he knows more or less.
Xiaomeng talked to Chen Zhuo on the phone before withdrawing, and then she will have a week of closed recuperation and physical examination, and then she will take a month off and need to rest in a sanatorium, but she can choose her own place of recuperation, Xiaomeng joked that she chose a German hamburger, and I don't know if I can approve it.
Xiao Meng was just joking, but Chen Zhuo took it seriously, he reported Raineka's name to Xiao Meng, and told Xiao Meng that his physical trainer and nutritionist could serve as Xiao Meng's rehabilitation doctor, and if there were no other problems with the organization, there would be no problems at the Jishu level.
Xiaomeng said that he was fighting for it, but both of them felt that the possibility was relatively small, but in terms of time, even if Xiaomeng was on vacation in China, Chen Zhuo basically ended the season in mid-May, and when he returned to China, he still had time to accompany Xiaomeng.

Unlike Hamburg and Chen Zhuo, who are gradually moving up from the trough, Fulham and Hodgson are in a slightly more troubled situation right now.
In this round of the Premier League, Fulham, who hid nine main players, was forced to draw 0:0 at home by Wolves and has completely withdrawn from the ranks of the competition for next season's Europa League qualification, but the hidden central defender Chris Smalling accidentally sprained his ankle in training, which gave Hodgson a bit of a headache.
The centre-back, who turned 21 by November this year, was discovered and trained by Hodgson at Fulham's youth team, and the 20-year-old centre-back has shown a much more maturity and consistency than his years in Hodgson's proud defensive system.
Smalling's excellence is also seen by many giants, especially this season's Fulham in the Europa League like a fairy tale of outstanding performance, but also triggered a "Smalling" battle, now this competition has basically settled, just waiting for the transfer window to open, Zuihou two contenders are Arsenal and Manchester United, Wenger for the Premier League debut season player quoted a price of 7 million pounds, but the deep-pocketed Manchester United offer is even more terrifying, 14 million pounds......
Without Smalling, the sky can't fall, this season's substitute for Smalling, Norway's 29-year-old central defender Hamellaran is also the backbone of Fulham's defense before Smalling was forged in the first two seasons, this is Hodgson's henchman in the Norwegian league, and he got him over in the Premier League, even the 1.95-meter-old Smalling is tempered according to the template of 1.94-meter-Smallland!
Wenger, who did not grab Smalling, has officially made an offer to Hangelan, Hodgson has often been interviewed by the boss Fayyad recently, although the power of the head coach in the Premier League is great, but the boss's opinion, after all, must be respected, after all, he is the boss!
Some time ago, the Hamburg team was in a uproar about the "purge" Jihua, and the head coach Labadia resigned and sought compensation, but fortunately, the Hamburg team did a good job in the aftermath, and the Chinese boy accepted a league victory, which calmed down the Hamburg fans a lot.
But for Hodgson, his trouble is much bigger than the leak of the purge, because there are now signs that owner Fayyad is "liquidating" various businesses in the UK, and the club probably doesn't want to do it either......
