Chapter 335 Changes in Tradition

Although it is the giant Bayern Munich in front of them, Schalke 04 is very happy to be able to return to the second place in the standings.

Zhang Yuan also said in an interview with reporters: "I am very happy to be able to return to the second place in the standings. Although Bayern Munich is a respectable and strong team, I hope that we can finally pull them away. Come down!"

What he said was nothing at all, but the reporter's report became a problem. Without the word "hope", it obviously has a provocative meaning. Some people in Bayern Munich are not convinced. Franck Ribery There is no prejudice against Zhang Yuan.

But he was very upset with what Zhang Yuan said, pulling us off the horse, do you have that kind of strength? !

So in an interview with reporters, Ribery smiled, "Zhang Yuan, he is indeed a very talented young player, but I don't agree with him. Schalke 04 is also a very strong team. , but I don't think they can step on us!"

Franck Ribery has never been a quiet master. His playing experience is quite similar to that of Zhang Yuan. He also came from playing wild football, but his luck is not as good as that of Zhang Yuan. It is too late to become famous, and his personality is also a bit temper People, Schalke 04 and Bayern Munich almost gang fights, but Ribery was a part of it.

Now that he heard Zhang Yuan's provocative words, it's normal to be dissatisfied.

Zhang Yuan clearly knew that the media misinterpreted his meaning, but he still responded to the media: "The season is very long, and it is hard to say who will laugh at the end! Bayern Munich is not invincible! This season also lost the game!"

As soon as Zhang Yuan said this, he was no longer simply responding to Ribery's words, but seemed to bring the entire Bayern Munich team with him. Having said that, who made Ribery reveal your Schalke 04 inside and out? It just doesn't work!
Now the whole incident has been expanded, the two sides are fighting each other, and many players have come forward. Magath is not satisfied with Zhang Yuan's "nonsense" with his mouth open.

"Zhang Yuan, I don't allow you to respond to them any more! Why don't you use your energy on the court? Is my training too slack, you don't feel tired at all, and you are talking nonsense everywhere!" Ma Garter gave Zhang Yuan a hard lesson.

It's not my fault, they are the first to look down on us, okay? !Zhang Yuan secretly refuted.

Also because of this incident, Zhang Yuan yelled at his teammates several times during training: "Nai Nai, my words have been released, you don't want us to be ashamed in the end, right?!"

In order to motivate everyone's morale, the result is that Schalke 04 will continue to rise in the next game.

On February 2, they first defeated Osnabrück 11-1 in the German Cup and successfully advanced to the semi-finals. What they will encounter happens to be their enemy Bayern Munich.

Then in the league match on February 2, Schalke 14 played at home and defeated Cologne 04-2. Zhang Yuan contributed a goal once.

For 4 consecutive rounds, Zhang Yuan scored in every game, and his condition was extremely good. Magath absolutely seemed to have opened up Zhang Yuan. There were only 5 free kick in [-] goals, and the other [-] were all goals. Sports goals.

This is enough to show that Zhang Yuan has greatly improved in terms of running positions.

The German media and the domestic media praised Zhang Yuan fiercely. Zhang Yuan's goals this season has risen to 15, regaining the first place in the scorer list.

The transfer period has passed, but Zhang Yuan's transfer story is not over yet. From time to time, there will be reports in the media who will spend a lot of money to buy Zhang Yuan.

The targets of the gossip are basically some rich and powerful families, and now the latest one to emerge is Manchester United's rivals in the same city, Manchester City.

This rumor is indeed true, but Zhang Yuan is not clear about it. What is clear is Raiola. Raiola did not tell Zhang Yuan the news. Only the upper management of Manchester City are very interested in Zhang Yuan. Interest, the newly appointed head coach Mancini, he is not particularly interested in Zhang Yuan.

Mancini took office as the Manchester City coach in December 2009, but the current Premier League is different from before. In the past, the head coach basically made the decisions on the transfer. This is why the head coach in the Premier League is called a manager, while other leagues The current coach is not simply called a coach, and has no decision-making power in the transfer.

However, after many clubs in the Premier League have been acquired by foreign consortiums, the head coach model is undergoing drastic changes. One aspect is the composition of the head coach. In the past, most of the head coaches of the Premier League teams came from the British Isles, but this is not the case now. More and more mainland coaches have entered the Premier League to develop. They bring different styles of play but also impact the traditional power of head coaches.

It is very gratifying for these coaches to obtain the power of traditional Premier League coaches, but at the insistence of the boss, they can still accept weakening this power.

On the other hand, many bosses are unwilling to give up the right to transfer. They have many choices, and the managerial model of the Premier League can be described as shady in transfer transactions. Ferguson, Wenger, etc. are no exception. The bosses naturally Unwilling to be reconciled to some head coaches messing around with their own industries, it is imperative to take back some of their power.

The new coach does not mind abandoning the tradition of the Premier League, and the boss is not willing to be lonely. All this has caused some teams to no longer have the final say of the head coach, and the traditional model is undergoing obvious changes.

The most typical example is Mourinho, but later he couldn't grasp the absolute right to speak on the team's transfer. Shevchenko is definitely not the player he wants to introduce.

The same is true for Manchester City now. Mancini has taken office, but he does not have the right to speak in the transfer.

Manchester City has money, and the boss is as willing to spend money as Abrahimovich, or even more.

The former owner of Manchester City, Thaksin, is not as fond of spending money as the current owner. As for why they bought the Manchester City club, there are different reasons for this, but in any case, burning money will definitely not frown.

It was the summer of 2008 when I took over Manchester City, but the transfer period at that time was almost over. After taking over, Manchester City spent a lot of money and bought a lot of good players, but their results in the next season were not. Ideal.

In today's world football, money must be spent to be successful, and which strong team has not spent money? With Real Madrid and Chelsea leading the way, Manchester City naturally follows.

The owner of the Manchester City team has always wanted to introduce the world's top players, which can not only improve the strength of the team, but also directly enhance the influence of the club. They launched a fierce pursuit of Kaka at that time, but unfortunately later because the team's grade Too bad it didn't work out, but this time it didn't work out, but that didn't deter City.

In fact, Manchester City's strategy is like this. To get results as soon as possible, the team must introduce high-level players. I can't tell, the player they want, the other club will eat you and ask for a high price, and they have no choice but to follow their request.

And they have gone beyond the category of on-demand introductions, sometimes purely for the purpose of accumulating stars.

The most popular star in the limelight is their favorite, so Zhang Yuan, the most popular young player in European football, entered their eyes.

There are many benefits of introducing Zhang Yuan, not only to help the team at the competitive level, but also the huge Chinese market behind Zhang Yuan is also what they envy.

The influence of Manchester City's rival Manchester United in East Asia is very enviable. The introduction of Zhang Yuan will undoubtedly increase Manchester City's influence in East Asia.

Another factor is that Manchester United tried to introduce Zhang Yuan during the winter break. Moreover, a huge poster of Carlos Tevez was made in a conspicuous place in Manchester, which clearly disgusted his sworn enemy.

Now such an opportunity has come again. The Manchester City team, which doesn't care about money, has the idea of ​​​​introducing Zhang Yuan, but Mancini doesn't want to. He and Zhang Yuan didn't have serious conflicts at the beginning, but the knot in each other's hearts must exist. He didn't want Zhang Yuan to work under his command, just like Zhang Yuan wouldn't want to join him.

The head coach's disagreement did not dispel the enthusiasm of Manchester City's top management. They contacted Raiola through channels after the winter break.
