Chapter 1085: Rendezvous
Chen Yu drove away from his hometown early the next morning, but he did not go straight to the provincial capital, but went to the county seat first, and it was easy to come back before the Spring Festival. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Wang Lijuan has now been transferred from the township middle school to the experimental middle school in Taicheng, Chen Yu did not ask about Wang Lijuan's work, but the leaders of the Taicheng Education Bureau are very sensible and took the initiative to transfer Wang Lijuan's work, after arriving at the experimental middle school, Wang Lijuan is very close to home, and can save at least nearly 40 minutes of travel every day, and she can also go home for dinner at noon. In return, Chen Yu ran a football school in his hometown and sponsored 800 computers for four middle schools in Taicheng.
When she heard Chen Yu say that she was going to leave soon, Wang Lijuan couldn't help but cry sadly, she took the gift from Chen Yu, and let Chen Yu have breakfast at home before leaving, but Chen Yu said that the time was too tight, and he wanted to rush to the imperial capital to meet the team, Wang Lijuan couldn't bear to let her son go hungry, although Chen Yu said that she could eat on the plane, but Wang Lijuan still bought Chen Yu two fritters, two eggs and a bowl of porridge, so that Chen Yu could eat on the road.
Although Chen Yu has no appetite at all now, he still put his mother's love breakfast in the car, and then hugged his mother, who was obviously aging, quickly got into the car, started, and drove away.
Chen Yu didn't dare to look back, he was afraid that he would cry when he looked back and saw his mother crying sadly.
When Chen Yu arrived in the imperial capital, the 17 players of the national team, the coaching staff and the officials of the Football Association were already waiting at the airport, and it was less than half an hour before the boarding time, and Chen Yu had not yet arrived, which made everyone very anxious.
Although Chen Yu is the biggest star of the team, but the whole team is waiting for him alone, but it still makes many people slander, especially Xi Yalong, the chairman of the Football Association, who is very dissatisfied with Chen Yu's big-name style of ignoring organizational discipline, if it weren't for Chen Yu's deep background, and he has the aura of the first person in world football, he really wants to call Chen Yu and criticize him.
Seeing Chen Yu coming over with his bag on his back, Xi Yalong, Forado, Guo Zuojin and others were relieved, and Xi Yalong, who had already scolded Chen Yu almost a hundred times in his heart, came over to greet Chen Yu with a smile on his face at this moment, "Chen Yu, you are finally here, hurry up, the boarding time will be soon." ā
"Hello Chairman Xi." Chen Yu said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I made everyone wait for a long time, there was something wrong on the road, and the time was delayed, but fortunately there was no mistake." ā
Xi Yalong waved his hand and said very generously: "It's okay, where is it not to wait, as long as you don't miss the point, let's go." ā
On the plane, there were many people, everyone didn't talk much, most of them closed their eyes and pretended to sleep, Wang Zhan began to chat with Chen Yu a few words, and later saw Chen Yu looking sleepless and unenergetic, so he said: "What did you do last night, did you steal people or what, your spirit is so sluggish." ā
Chen Yu said lazily: "I slept late yesterday, and now I just slept for a while, and called me when I got there." ā
The imperial capital is eight hours away from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, and Chen Yu planned to make up for the time last night on the plane, but he only squinted for more than an hour, and Guo Zuojin called him up.
"Xiao Yu, Coach Forado asked you to go over and want to tell you about the opponent's situation, these players have known for a long time, you haven't come back, Coach Forado plans to take advantage of this time to tell you about it, so that you can familiarize yourself with the opponent."
Guo Zuojin looked at Chen Yu, his mood was very complicated, Chen Yu was the only hope of the Chinese team in this World Cup qualifier, without Chen Yu, the Chinese team would not have been able to break out of the encirclement between Iraq, Australia and Jordan, but there was too little run-in between Chen Yu and the Chinese team, as the core of a giant team like Liverpool, Chen Yu could give the Chinese team too little time, and the Chinese Football Association did not have the confidence to put pressure on Liverpool or Chen Yu, so it could only make up Chen Yu's time, which made the Chinese team's training very passive, Because the Chinese team is now built with Chen Yu as the core, Chen Yu is not there, and the tactics can't be played at all, and now Guo Zuojin can only hope that the Chinese team can have a good start, so that the Chinese team and Chen Yu have time to run in.
Chen Yu walked to Forado's seat, and Guo Zuojin said to Chen Dong, the goalkeeper sitting next to Forado, "Xiao Chen, you and Chen Yu will change positions." ā
"Oh." Chen Dong and Forado were very uncomfortable sitting together, and when they heard that he and Chen Yu were asked to change seats, they quickly got up and walked over.
Forado saw Chen Yu coming, and said gently: "Chen Yu, you haven't participated in the team's training during this time, you don't know our playing style and the opponent's situation, and the time is very tight, I want to tell you about the situation on the way." ā
Forado was equipped with an interpreter, but he knew that Chen Yu's English was very good, so he directly communicated with Chen Yu in English.
Chen Yu said: "I know that I know that I will win all battles, and I also want to find out, so as not to be confused during the game." ā
Listening to Chen Yu's modesty, Forado was very satisfied, he knew that Chen Yu had a big brand and a deep background, it was not something he could suppress, and he didn't plan to suppress Chen Yu, as long as Chen Yu could cooperate with him in training and execute according to his tactical requirements, he would be satisfied.
"Iraq is the old rival of the Chinese team, although you have not played for the Chinese team before, but I believe you must be no stranger to Iraq, we have suffered a lot in the hands of this team, this is our first opponent in the group stage, and it is also the main competitor who can compete with us for the right to qualify from the group, if we beat Iraq, we have a great hope of qualifying...... Iraq's style of play is very distinctive, they are aggressive, fierce, tenacious and have a lot of similarities with European teams, and with the Norwegian head coach Olsen, their European style of football is even more obvious...... Although Iraq played team football, in last year's Asian Cup, they also relied on tenacious defense and crazy offense to defeat Saudi Arabia and win the championship, but this does not mean that Iraq does not have excellent technical stars, like their striker Younas, is a striker with strong scoring ability, won the best striker in Asia several times, a solid defense, a crazy midfielder, plus a striker with excellent scoring ability, it is understandable that Iraq has been able to play so well in recent years......
Perhaps feeling that he had said too much, Forado paused for a while to let Chen Yu digest the information he had just said, and then continued: "There are many stars with outstanding results in this wave of Iraqi football, also known as the golden generation, the spiritual leader of this generation is Younas, the core of the midfield is Akram and Hawar, the core of the defense is Kusse, and the goalkeeper is Asid, they have core players on every line, and it is very difficult to defeat them......"
Chen Yu listened to Forado boast about Iraq as if it were the German team, quite disapproving, others he didn't know, Younas is a person who can't even enter the five major leagues, Akram is now playing in League One, this is a golden generation, so what is the Chinese team, he is now the first person in the world, Zheng Hua plays in the Championship, Sun Hai is in the Premier League, Shao Gang is in the Bundesliga, Gao Fei is in Serie A, is China a platinum generation, but unfortunately before he returned, the Chinese team did not even qualify for the Asian Cup group.
may have seen that Chen Yu's expression was wrong, Forado hurriedly said: "Iraq is strong as a whole, although they have changed coaches, but the team's style of play has not changed much, and because Iraq is in the midst of a war, the players have a strong sense of honor and a fighting spirit, which is incomparable to all other West Asian players, and you also know that West Asian teams often attach importance to individual ability and ignore team spirit...... But yesterday I got a good news, according to the Iraqi team doctor Sufar revealed, their midfielder Qasim strained his thigh muscle in the training on the 4th, and will miss the Sino-Iranian battle, since the Iraqi team trained on the 25th of last month, the main defenders Rahima and Ibrahim have been injured one after another, and the Sino-Iranian war said "goodbye". However, there is also bad news that midfielder Mahdi, who was injured in the warm-up against the UAE team, is recovering well from his injury and is expected to play in the clash with China. ā
Chen Yu's face was solemn and said: "If it really hurts Kassim, Rahima and Ibrahima, it's good news, but we must also be careful of their deception, we must be fully prepared, we should have a good start in the first game." ā
Forado said: "Our coaching staff has also taken this into account, and has made full preparations, and two sets of tactical plans have been designed, which can be used flexibly, let Guo tell you this." ā
Forado's English is good, and it's okay to communicate with Chen Yu for a short time, but it's a little awkward for a long time, so I asked Guo Zuojin to communicate with Chen Yu.
Guo Zuojin coughed and said to Chen Yu: "Xiao Yu, this game is very important to us, the coaching staff attaches great importance to it, although you rarely participate in team training, but the team still has to build a team with you as the core, so during training, find a striker to simulate your style of play, and other players will play around you, after arriving in Dubai, we can really put this style of play into practice, although in terms of personal ability, our Chinese team is not bad, But why is it that our national team has always had bad results? ā
Chen Yu interjected: "I think we lack team spirit, lack of cooperation, weak fighting spirit, weak willpower, too much leadership intervention, too much psychological pressure, no matter how strong the individual ability of such a team is, it is useless." ā
Chen Yu said very directly, when he said that the leader interfered too much, he deliberately looked at Xi Yalong, the chairman of the Football Association, Xi Yalong was very unhappy, but he had no choice but to stare at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window.
"Yes, that's the kind of problem, Xiao Yu, you can see it very clearly, but team ability is not something that can be practiced in a while and a half, and the quality of will is not something that can be changed at once, I think it is still necessary to start from reality, in fact, relying on individual ability is not a disadvantage, it depends on how strong your personal ability is, in fact, our current tactics are still based on your personal ability......
Guo Zuojin and Chen Yu communicate much better than Forado, the two interact a lot, you come and go, sometimes argue, Forado sitting next to him can't interject.
Chen Yu and Guo Zuojin discussed for almost two hours, and then Guo Zuojin saw that Chen Yu's spirit was really bad, so he asked Chen Yu to sleep for a while and prepare for the night's training.
