Chapter 523 Head Coaches
Although Kaiserslautern is a newly promoted team and has no outstanding stars, they have performed very well this season. They, Mainz, Nuremberg and other teams have become the biggest highlights of this season.

Now that the season is coming to an end, Mainz ranks fifth, Nuremberg ranks sixth, and Kaiserslautern ranks seventh. There is no worry of relegation, but there is no hope of playing in the Europa League.

So there was no frustration after losing the ball, neither stepped up the offense to try to equalize the score, nor stepped up the defense.

In this case, Lannick also chose to stop.

In the 58th minute of the second half, in the second attack of Schalke 04's corner kick, Sun Wu sent a cross that seemed to be passed and shot. Cavani then scored a shovel to expand the score to 2-0.
Rangnick immediately replaced Sun Wu with Jones and Cavani with Aubameyang.

Sitting on the bench, Sun Wu was silent and only listened to Rolf and Slomka beside him discussing Firmino's positioning.

In the 75th minute, Firmino suddenly appeared on the right side of the penalty area in the positional battle. Facing the defense of the defender, he shot a low shot from the far corner and scored.

Both Rolf and Slomka stood up and applauded, while Lannik and Sun Wu both sat still.

The two people who were sitting still saw that the distance between Firmino and Pecarik was very large... If the ball bounced off the defender, if it was Manchester United... it would probably create Make a very threatening counterattack.

"Jefferson will not be like this. He will only enter the penalty area in the counterattack. The positional battle will only suddenly start at the back point when the left pass is made, or the individual breaks through and tears the opponent's defense. He will not run without the ball. There..." Sun Wu covered his mouth with his hands and said in a low voice: "It cannot be said that Firmino is at fault, this is his offensive characteristic, but it has a great impact on the balance of the formation."

"Pekarik's position is also a prerequisite?" Rangnick shook his head, "Nani and Valencia are not slow, and Giggs' pass can often tear the opponent's defense."

"It is very effective in the high press, but the positional battle makes him play on the wing..." Sun Wu also shook his head, "Manchester United is not Inter Milan or Tottenham, and Ferguson is far better than Leonardo and Redknapp , the effect of high pressing will not be too obvious."

Rangnick said with a wry smile: "But he scored goals...and he is much better than Hao Junmin in offense."

Sun Wu shut his mouth and did not speak. Although he has a high reputation in the team, not everyone admires him... Regarding the use of Hao Junmin, Sun Wu is generally reluctant to express his opinion in order to avoid suspicion.

But Sun Wu insisted that Hao Junmin can play a greater role in the next game than Firmino.

Firmino is a natural central player.

The old Scottish man in the stands also held the same view.

"That Brazilian should play in the middle." Ferguson shook his head vigorously and said, "A very good attacker!"

"Maybe it can be acquired?" Ferran on the side is also very interested in Firmino. "After one or two seasons, he can definitely play the main role in Manchester United."

Ferguson didn't express his opinion, he thought over and over in his mind, and after a while he said, "Please explain later, let the scouts observe for a long time."

Now Manchester United's midfield is really... Hargreaves has been completely reduced to a glass man, Giggs is good but old, Scholes has decided to retire at the end of the season, Anderson and Gibson are useless, The most powerful Fletcher, who was also in his golden age, was seriously ill... so Carrick could be alone.

Phelan suddenly pouted and said, "Actually, it's the most cost-effective to buy Best. Looking at his performance, he is really not inferior to the other Best. Moreover, he is the core of the midfield and will be of greater help to the team!"

Ferguson gave the assistant a hard look, nonsense!If I could buy it, I would have bought it a long time ago!

After the UEFA Champions League game that impressed Manchester United two years ago, Ferguson contacted Sun Wu's agent immediately, but the response he got was that Sun Wu personally refused.

"This is... Ferguson came to the Veltins Arena in person, with assistant coach Phelan beside him." Duan Xuan said with a smile: "In three days, Manchester United will come to this stadium."

"This time Ferguson is going all out to get revenge." Tao Wei added: "Two years ago, it was Sun Wu who kicked Manchester United out of the Champions League and let Manchester United play in the Europa League."

At this time, the live broadcast camera suddenly swept to the stands again, and after giving a close-up of a bald head, it changed its position and gave a two-second close-up of a middle-aged man.

"Guardiola is here, as well as Mourinho!" Tao Wei was a little excited, "The other three clubs' head coaches in the top four of the Champions League all chose to come here on weekends to inspect the military situation."

"Manchester United's league game was played yesterday, and Real Madrid and Barcelona are playing tomorrow..." Duan Xuan clicked his tongue: "It seems that the three world-class coaches are very wary of Schalke 04."

"Of course, Ferguson has suffered in the hands of Sun Wu, and Real Madrid has almost failed to qualify for the group match against Schalke 04 this season with one draw and one loss."

"And the record of Mourinho and Sun Wu's fight is very embarrassing. They have never won, and they have two draws and two losses in the Champions League four times."

Ferguson soon found himself caught by the camera and immediately got up and left the field. The other two didn't stay for long. Although the game was not over, there was nothing valuable to see.

The game ended 3-1. Sun Wu stretched his waist, got up and gave his teammates high-fives one by one, and then went to the north stand and threw his jersey up. This is his repertoire after every home game.

"There are three league rounds left, and Schalke 04 leads Leverkusen by 8 points. In other words, Schalke 04 only needs a draw in the next round of the league to lift the salad plate!"

Adam Simpson smiled maliciously: "But in the next round of the league, Schalke 04 will challenge Bayern Munich away..."

"After defeating Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich ranks third. They are only two points away from second-ranked Leverkusen and one point ahead of fourth-ranked Dortmund. If they want to ensure their qualification for the Champions League next season, Bayern will not be able to play in the next three rounds of the league. There is a loss."

"In other words, this season's salad plate already has an owner, but the battle for Champions League qualification is not over yet."

"Let's wait and see if Schalke 04 will raise the salad plate at the Allianz Arena in the next round!"

At this time, the live broadcast camera gave a close-up of Sun Wu who was pacing on the lawn.

The Chinese player applauded the home fans with both hands, with a confident and strong look in his eyes.

"I heard from Ralph about your plan." Raul, who was resting in the game, walked onto the field and put his arms around Sun Wu's shoulders with a smile. "It's very risky, but very interesting."

Sun Wu smiled slightly, "Will you support me?"

"As a member of Schalke 04, I will choose what is best for the team." Raul seems to recall something, "but as a player, I support you."

"Thank you."

"It's a pity that you have a relationship with La Masia." Raul said regretfully: "No player from La Masia has ever entered the Real Madrid first team."

Players born in the city of Barcelona may also appear in Real Madrid, such as Hierro, one of the greatest captains in Real Madrid history, but the Bernabeu said no to players from La Masia.

Sun Wu opened his mouth to refute, I am not from La Masia!
But after thinking about it again, I still didn’t say it, anyway, I won’t go to Real Madrid... Even if it’s Kroos and the Magic Flute, it’s not just a foil for Ronaldo!

It must be clear about the fact that the Magic Flute won the Golden Globe after Ronaldo left Real Madrid.
