Green Dragon

Chapter 282 Captain Dragon and Card Guidance

"Oh? Xiaolong, you came to the training camp so early?"

In a certain hotel in Doha, Zheng Zhi was a little surprised to see the dusty Long Shute.

Long Shute nodded to him, laughed at himself and said:
"It's hard to be recruited once, I always have to show that I attach great importance to it!"

Zheng Zhi lowered his head slightly, his smile was a bit forced.

Long Shute smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

"Brother Zheng, don't worry too much. It's just Iraq. As long as we play hard, we can handle it in the first half!"
-
At dinner time later, Long Shute met with most of his teammates.

After Camacho became the head coach, he—or someone else—made some adjustments to Gao Hongbo's previous team lineup, but the main frame still continued with the Evergrande Gang.

As Evergrande won the Chinese Super League championship, their players' status in the national team has become more stable. Gao Lin, Zheng Zhi, Wu Pingfeng, Sun Xiang, Feng Xiaoting, and Zhang Linpeng all occupy important main positions in the team. Even in the absence of Long Shute, he has been serving as the captain.

As insiders, although these players don't know the specific intentions of some leaders, they can always feel the awkward position of Long Shute more or less, so when Long Shute appeared, some people's expressions and attitudes were more complicated up...

This is all expected. Long Shute, who has two experiences, will not complain about his lack of heart. He calmly faces those eyes of suspicion, surprise, welcome, or reassurance. Sitting next to the team leader Cao Jingwei with a plate:
"Leader Cao, long time no see, I'll report to you."

Cao Jingwei smiled and shook hands with him:
"Shu Te, it's great that you're here, we not only have an extra general, but also a backbone!"

The two of them had just exchanged a few words, and Camacho walked in with his Spanish team.

Probably because in the eyes of Europeans, Chinese people all look similar, and Camacho didn't even recognize the young man sitting at the table with him at first glance...

It was Long Shute who took the initiative to speak:

"Nice meeting, Coach Camacho, I'm Long Shute."

Camacho and those coaches almost threw away the forks in their hands, because Long Shute spoke Spanish, and... also had a faint Madrid accent!
"Surprisingly, you can speak Spanish?"

Camacho took a sip of his drink to hide his surprise.

Long Shute replied with a smile: "A little bit, after all, Spanish football has been the mainstream of the world in recent years..."

The two of them simply communicated in Spanish.

"Mr. Camacho, first of all, I have to express my gratitude to you. When the situation of qualifying for the national team is so severe, you recruited me into the team."

Long Shute praised the other party cheekily.

And Camacho accepted it with the same cheek:
"I originally wanted to call you up in the summer, but the Football Association leaders said that you had just transferred to Bayern at that time, and they should give you more time to run in. In addition, you still have Olympic missions, so I don't want to increase your pressure. It’s just that I didn’t expect that I still lacked understanding of Asian football, and the time I took over the team was short, and the players haven’t fully understood my technical and tactical requirements, so the results are not ideal for the time being...”

He might be embarrassed to continue talking.

But Long Shute continued his topic and said:

"Although you have not led the team for a long time, and there are only four official games, I think your tactical thinking is very suitable for the current Chinese team. Before we emphasized the passing of the feet too much, but the effect was not outstanding. Compared with controlling the reverse foot and penetrating the center, the simple and clear side advance and fast cross are more suitable for the current Chinese team..."

If other Chinese players talked about tactics in front of Camacho, the Spaniard might have shown disdain long ago, but now he is in front of the player of the season officially recognized by UEFA, and he is also the most likely to win the gold medal this year. One of the most popular candidates for the ball award, Camacho certainly will not issue ridicule.

Longshut, the players who played under the two main forwards Van Basten and Heynckes, are Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, Hoeness, Gerd Müller Such a player who is admired by the super giants in the football world, his vision and the weight of his words... Of course, it is not the same as those Chinese players.

Camacho was very happy to hear that he recognized him, and the complaints that had arisen before began to slowly dissipate.

After all, it was just a moment of anger. Even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to trip up the team's meritorious captain at this time!
——Although Long Shute's words were intentional, he also had some real thoughts of his own.

Gao Hongbo has always been obsessed with technical reforms, so much so that he largely gave up on the physical conditions that the Chinese team used to have an advantage in Asia, such as heading, confrontation, and hardness...

Although Camacho is a Spanish coach, he does not follow the traditional Spanish ball control style. It is completely different from the tactics of Aragones, Del Bosque, Guardiola and others. The style of play in Lu Chuan has low technical content, but it is more suitable for the Chinese team with weak technical ability and unable to implement complex tactics.

His style of play has high demands on the physical fitness of the players, and they need to run constantly to exert their power. However, for these players who grew up in the greenhouse, the average running of [-] per game is really killing them.

Moreover, Camacho has always been strict with the discipline in the locker room, but he is self-willed and stubborn. When he coached Real Madrid for the second time, he even publicly criticized the performance of Ronaldo, Figo, Carlos and others in interviews. Then he was directly kicked off the head coach's throne by these superstars...

He thought that after he came to the Chinese team to coach, with his status as a Real Madrid star, he could overwhelm these Chinese players who were almost marginalized in international football, but he didn't expect that even if it was a football desert, there would be no lack of confrontation and struggle.

In his own words, he doesn't even have the most basic right to decide to recruit players, so what about controlling the team...
-
Although Long Shute's goal is still to be a ball bully, and he doesn't like Camacho's coaching ability and always superior attitude, but he is even more unwilling to catch fire in the backyard at this time.

Although this head coach has no skills, what if he can't think about it and applies to the referee to replace himself directly in the first minute after the start of the game?
Although the head coach of the Chinese team may be the most powerful head coach, but as a player, if you can maintain a good relationship with the coach, there is nothing wrong with it.

Of course, the premise is that the head coach doesn't bully people too much.
-
In the training session the next morning, Long Shute only took 10 minutes to warm up and run to conquer the head coach.

"Look at his mastery of steps, adjustment of breathing, and others around him are not at the same level..."

Then started training with the ball.

Camacho, who has watched Chinese players stop the ball five meters away, pass the ball out of bounds, and shoot the corner flag for more than three months, burst into tears at this moment.

"This is called a professional player!"
