Chapter 311 The Story of the Dressing Room
It's past 12 o'clock after I finished writing, and it's sent out at this time, and there are a lot of free coins...

2012 2 Month 22 Day.

Switzerland, Basel city.

St Jakobs Park.

"Drip, drip...drip!"

Nicola Rizzoli, the gold medal whistler from Italy, blew two short whistles and one long whistle three times.

1-0.

According to international practice, the home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

Looking at the score on the big screen high in the sky, Heynckes waved his arms helplessly, turned around and shook hands with Basel coach Vogel.

The Swiss fans in the stands sang their team anthem.

"The game is over!"

He Wei, who was thousands of miles away, let out a long sigh:
"No one would have imagined before the game that Bayern Munich, which has such big-name players as Robery, Gomez, Lahm, Neuer, Müller, Kroos, Tymoshchuk, etc., would lose to Basel in an upset. , it must be a double blow for Bayern, who just lost their top spot in the league..."

"..."

The guest Tao Wei, who was his partner in the commentary, was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Although he looked at the screen, his eyes obviously lost focus, and he felt a little empty.

Where did the Bayern Munich, which blew the Quartet and shook the whole of Europe at the beginning of the season, go? -
"Beep."

Long Shute turned off the simulated game screen in his head, shrugged, and sat up from the sofa.

The statistics of the game have been clearly presented in front of his eyes.

Basel and Bayern have a ball possession ratio of 43% to 57%, with Bayern still firmly in control of the situation.

Throughout the game, Basel could only threaten Neuer with a few counterattacks, but it was the last chance of the four counterattacks that allowed them to send the football into Neuer's wicket.

Why did Bayern lose?
Those main players started the game as in history, and it seems that everyone is in good condition, but...why did they lose the game like in history?

He didn't know, and the system didn't tell him the answer.

If it weren't for the fact that he is also part of Bayern, he would even suspect that these players collectively participated in a match-fixing incident.

But he also knows that this is absolutely impossible, Ribery, Robben, Gomez, Ram, Muller, Neuer... How could these players allow their dignity to be trampled on in this way?

Maybe it's football.

There are too many factors that can affect the result.

You are obviously ten or a hundred times stronger than your opponent, but you may not be able to defeat him [-]%.

If you let Bayern play against the Chinese team a hundred times, it is very likely that Bayern will not be able to win a hundred times in a row...

The league fell behind Dortmund, and the Champions League lost to a little-known underdog, which made Bayern, who was already in a bad situation, even more on the cusp. All the comments were overwhelmingly on the opposite side of them:
"The Giant Killer appeared again. The last giant to be eliminated by Basel was Manchester United!"

"Bayern in this state still want to enter the Champions League final at the Allianz Arena?"

"Gomez didn't score in four games, Robery only knew how to fight alone, Kroos was invisible all the time, Muller was powerless to recover, Alaba's offense and defense were misplaced, Timoschuk was useless, Lahm could only pass back, Rafinha lost ground, Bard and Boateng had no tacit understanding, Neuer attacked blindly... What is Heynckes' tactics?"

"What is lost is the best. In contrast, Van Gaal is a tactical genius!"

"It was definitely a mistake for Bayern to choose Heynckes, who is outdated and outdated in tactical thinking!"

"From leading Dortmund by 2 points in the first half to being behind by 2 points now, who will take the blame for the current passive situation?"

"Heynckes, although thank you for saving Bayern many times, please leave now!"

"Emotions cannot be eaten, modern football does not need emotions!"

"Why is Bayern such a garbage team been touted as a super team after Barcelona and Real Madrid in recent years?"

"No offense, no defense...why am I disappointed with Heynckes' Bayern?"

"Schweinsteiger OR Longshute? Which of the two players who are absent due to injury is the key player for Bayern?"

"Breaking news! The core dispute between Long Shute and Robben is the biggest reason for Bayern's decline in performance!"

"There is an undercurrent in the locker room, Robben, Heynckes, or Dragon? Who will be the first to leave Bayern?"

"From the championship grand slam to the two-lane defeat, choosing Bayern may become the biggest failure of Long Shute's career?!"

"Ram, Ribery, and Piggy can't afford to wait anymore! Heynckes owes them a championship!"

"Crisis! The Bayern locker room meeting after the game revealed a quarrel. If we are overwhelmed, we will change coaches immediately!"

……

While gossip is often false, at times like this, even the most optimistic Bayern fans would think that the club is in a precarious time.

Last season, Van Gaal stepped down in embarrassment due to all four players. If the same mistakes are repeated this season, Heynckes will never leave the game with dignity.

Of course, for Bayern, an insignificant champion like the German Cup is not in their consideration at all. If they want to keep their coaching positions, they must at least win one of the league and the Champions League. At least they cannot lose the trophy in advance in February hope.

As described by the media, on the second day after losing to Basel in the Champions League, the Bayern team back in Munich held a closed-door meeting.

The sports director Nellinger personally presided over the meeting. He repeatedly emphasized the great significance of unity and discipline to the team, and then wanted to thank the players for their desire to win with honor.

But this group of players is by no means without the desire to win. Their problem may be that... most people's desire to win is too strong, which has led to a situation where everyone is dominated by me and the whole team is scattered.

It is inevitable that quarrels will break out under such circumstances.

Franck Ribery fired first, accusing Robben of encroaching on his space too much and disrespectfully taking the free-kick from the left.

Robben aimed his guns directly at the manager, who accused Heynckes of moving Lahm behind him this season, and has been vacillating at right-back, which led to Boateng and Rafi Niah, and even Alaba did not form the best tacit understanding with him.

Gomez and Muller believed that the two wingers gave too little support to the striker and seized too much right to fire. As a result, Muller scored less than one goal this season...

The back line complained that the midfield teammates did not work hard in defense, especially Kroos, who is young but likes to play old-age health balls. As long as he is on the field, Bayern is almost equivalent to one less man in defense. .

Goalkeeper Neuer is also full of complaints: Several defenders of Bayern are tall and slow-turning types. If they are facing dexterous offensive players like Royce and Gotze, they often cannot support even a round. Being easily broken through, Neuer often becomes one-on-one with the opponent's striker without paying attention this season...

The more the teammates argued, the more angry they became. If it weren't for the fact that Hoeness, the most respected club leader, was also sitting next to him, it wouldn't be surprising if they fought.

Since they have been recovering from injuries for the past two weeks and did not participate in the game, both Longstig and Schweinsteiger only acted as spectators at the beginning of the meeting.

"Aren't you going to say something, Bastian?" Long Shute turned to look at the little pig, but the latter shook his head.

Although the deputy of Bayern and Germany has a typical Germanic face, he is a good person who is unwilling to speak ill of others. It may be difficult for him to criticize his teammates face to face.

So Long Shute coughed.

But... None of the teammates who were arguing fiercely paid attention to him...

So he stood up directly, dragged his still sore right leg and jumped onto the conference round table!
"Boom!"

A muffled sound echoed in the meeting room, but the quarrels were temporarily suppressed by the muffled sound.

Hoeness frowned, but said nothing.

"What are you going to do?"

Nellinger asked sternly.

The sports director regretted it at the beginning of the meeting, because he found that he had no way to control this group of players!

"Be quiet."

Long Shute successfully attracted everyone's attention, and then he sat down on the table.

"I don't know what you guys are arguing about. Are you summing up the results of this season?"

He grinned, and sarcastically said with a half-smile:
"Is there no hope for our league to win the championship? Or have we been eliminated in the Champions League? None? Then why do you all look disheartened?"

"I suddenly want to tell you a story, Alger, and Frank."

His eyes flicked over the ashen-faced Robben and the grim-faced Ribery:
"There was a player who turned professional at the age of 20 and signed with a club in the second-tier league that had fallen. It was a hopeless place. But perhaps God forbid, when he At 21, with 'luck'... winning the Champions League."

He deliberately said the word "luck" very heavily and slowly, and then continued:

"However, he knew that in such a small club lacking financial support, it is absolutely impossible to defend the Champions League again, so he moved to a top European club, where there are many top players. These teammates, they can form an invincible force and bring back the championship and the glory."

Long Shute changed the subject:
"But he doesn't know that the reputation of those teammates is getting louder and stronger than the other, but the temper is also getting bigger and bigger. Everyone thinks that they are the best in the world, and that as long as they give the ball to themselves, they will be able to solve the problem." Fighting, so there is no need to cooperate with other people at all, teammates for them...maybe just to make up the number of players?"

Robben and Ribery did not immediately show embarrassing expressions on their faces, because they already knew this simple truth.

It's just... when they set foot on the field, the pride in their bones will always make them forget these principles.

Who is Franck Ribery?
The 2006 World Cup became famous. In 2007, he had a transfer fee of more than 2500 million euros. He led the fourth-ranked Bayern in the league to regain the Bundesliga championship. When he was the MVP, it was the Bayern club who kept him here crying and shouting. Of course he has the capital to think that he is the most indispensable player in the team.

And who is Alger Robben?
He has entered the Premier League and La Liga alone, and as an absolute main player, won the league championships in Chelsea and Real Madrid respectively. He is a well-deserved top player.It is precisely because of his joining that Bayern regained the confidence of a strong team. It was he who carried Bayern to the Champions League final in the first season. He certainly felt that he was stronger than Ribery, who could only abuse food. .

But who is Long Shute?
A Chinese player who led Ajax to the Champions League from nowhere, lifted a trophy that Ribéry and Arjen Robben had never touched, defeated the two most powerful players of this era, and won all football The highest achievement athletes can only dream of.Although his age is much younger than Robery, but the criticism came out of his mouth, and the two senior and powerful leaders of Bayern had no way to refute it.

In the football world, the qualifications of relying on the old to sell the old are often not worth mentioning in front of iron-like achievements.

With Long Shute's current status in football, he certainly has the confidence to criticize the other two so-called "big shots".

But... As for whether Robben and Ribery can listen to it, only they can know.

The problems hidden in Bayern's locker room are more complicated than imagined.

Storytelling alone cannot solve all these problems.
