There is a belief called football

Chapter 87 The Dream Team Coached by Stan
Stan and Li Qiao came to a good Chinese restaurant nearby. The restaurant specializes in Cantonese and Hong Kong-style food. Stan often visits it. It happens that the boss is also a fan of "Guangzhou Tianbao", so every time Stan comes, the boss is very welcome.

The boss once told Stan that if the team wins the AFC Champions League this year, Stan will be free of charge for meals in the future.

As soon as Stan entered, the waiter approached enthusiastically, "Is Coach Stankovic still upstairs in the private room?"
Stan nodded, "Same as usual".

Li Qiao followed Stan upstairs, and asked in a low voice: "Stan, are you so famous in Guangzhou now"?
Stan smiled and said: "As the head coach of Guangzhou Tianbao, this should be it."

After coming to the private room, Li Qiao took a look, it was a very elegant environment.

"Stan, you really know how to pick places."

"Joe, the owner of this restaurant is a Tianbao fan, you can eat with your stomach tonight."

"Then I'm not welcome," Li Qiao said.

*****
"Stan, tell me about the team's situation," Li Qiao said.

Li Qiao cares more about football than food.

"Our team is now leading the league by 18 points and has basically secured the championship",
"So powerful", Li Qiao was speechless.

But when Stan announced the team lineup, Li Qiao felt that such a result was not surprising at all.

Now Guangzhou Tianbao under the coach of Stein adopts a 4-2-3-1 formation.

When Stan mentioned the goalkeeper, Li Qiao was startled. That was the Swedish national goalkeeper, "Isaacson", the 30-year-old Nordic goalkeeper with a height of 1 meters.

Although the 30-year-old is already in the late stage of his career, the experienced Isaacson is exactly the kind of player Stan needs. With him standing in front of the goal, any head coach and defender will be very relieved.

As for the left back position, Stan chose the Nigerian "Taiwo", a full-back who once played for Marseille in Ligue [-]. He was good at offense and defense. In Ligue [-], "Taiwo" and Lyon's "Sissoko" can be said to be the two best left backs.

Taiwo not only has a super defensive ability, but also has a good assist ability. It can be said that he is on the left side. The only shortcoming is that Taiwo's personal life discipline is not good, which is also a key factor hindering his development in European giants.

The left central defender is most familiar to Chinese fans. He is nicknamed "Big Head" "Li Weifeng". This basically does not need too much introduction. Li Weifeng can be said to be the best central defender cultivated in China in the past 20 years.

The right back is the Brazilian "Gabriel". This young Brazilian central defender who debuted at the Brazilian Vitoria Club was introduced by Stan last season. The 20-year-old young player cost the club 1300 million euros in transfer fees, but his performance in one season proves that the money is well spent.

It's just that the Chinese Super League couldn't keep the talented Brazilian after all. Later, in 2013, this talented central defender moved to Villarreal and moved to Arsenal during the winter break in 2015. Of course, that's a story.

The right back is also the most familiar and favorite of Chinese fans, Sun Jihai. This Chinese player who used to play for Manchester City in the Premier League can be said to be the most successful player among Chinese overseas players. Needless to say, Jihai’s characteristics are that he plays football. Diligent, can be said to be China’s "Lichsteiner", always running at the expense of physical strength, and has a tenacious style on the court.

Double defensive midfielders, the left one is the Iranian "Nei Kenan". This veteran who participated in the World Cup in Germany can be said to be one of the best defensive midfielders in Asia. In the position of the defensive midfielder, "Nei Kenan" has first-class defensive hardness and good offensive passing awareness. More importantly, Nei Kenan is that kind of cheap and high-quality player.

Although Stan has money, being rich does not mean that he can spend money indiscriminately. If he can choose affordable players, then Stan will still sign them immediately.

On the right side of the double midfielder is the former Asian Footballer of Uzbekistan "Jeparov". Jeparov played as an avant-garde when he debuted. Later, as he got older, he now plays more as a midfielder.

His experience is very similar to that of "Schweinsteiger" in Germany. Schweinsteiger made his debut as a right midfielder. Later, as he got older, he was changed into a world-class midfielder by Van Gaal.

Now Stan has two of the best midfielders in Asia, one of Nei Kenan's main defense, and the other "Jeparov" is more involved in offense, complementing each other.

When Stan said this, Li Qiao was amazed, "Stan, the two midfielders you bought are really good. The price is not expensive, less than 400 million euros, but the level is at the European level."

Stan said triumphantly, "Did you think I could only coach little devils before?"
Li Qiao chuckled and listened to Stan continue.

The front midfielder is the German "Hassler" trained by Tianbao himself. Now Hassler is more and more like Barcelona's Portuguese star "Deco".

The left winger is the famous Younis. This Iraqi forward helped Iraq win the Asian Cup in 2007. He was the undisputed core of that team. Stan called Younis, which is still the idea of ​​spending a small amount of money to do big things.

The right winger is very popular, and that is the Uruguayan winger "Recoba" known as the "Chinese boy". Although Recoba is now 35 years old, his golden left foot is still strong. Another important point is that Recoba is very popular in China. Although his annual salary is as high as 400 million euros, it is still a good deal in terms of team strength and commercial value.

The choice of the single striker Stan is also very unique, that is, the Icelander "Gudjohnsen", Gudjohnsen belongs to the kind of player who has been mixed with giants, but has always been untenable in the top European giants.

But what Stan values ​​Gudjohnsen is because of his two characteristics. First, he has a high level. Of course, it goes without saying that Gudjohnsen is very suitable for the forward striker in 4-2-3-1. In addition, the value of Gudjohnsen's star also meets the club's requirements.

In addition, in addition to 11 starters in a game, there are 7 main substitutes. Stan's choice is also unique.

The substitute goalkeeper was trained by himself, Qi rate.

The substitute right back was trained by himself, Qi Bing.

The substitute right winger was trained by himself, Park Han-sung.

The substitute striker is the Peruvian demon knife, Pizarro.

The backup central defender is "Jacob Sim" introduced by Stan from the Mexican Blue Cross. This young central defender was signed by Stan for free. Of course, Li Qiao doesn't know him, so he doesn't know how good he is.

Having said that, Stan will not say anything.

"What's the matter, coach, there are two more"?
Stan looked around and said mysteriously that the remaining two have not yet been finalized, which are related to two important transfers.

"What"?Li Qiao felt that there was important news behind this.

"Joe, this is the top secret of the club, it cannot be said originally",
Li Qiao nodded.

"But tell you, I don't worry."
Stein lowered his voice and said: "Now the club is still working on two transfers before the end of the European summer transfer window."

"One stroke is to introduce the Brazilian midfielder "Babutista"".

"The other one is more exciting. If it succeeds, it will definitely shake the world football. That is, the club is secretly contacting the Roma club, hoping to introduce the wolf king Totti."

"Is it true?" Li Qiao asked.

"Hehe, I knew it would scare you," Stan said.

"But, Joe, you mustn't say it."

"Well, of course."

Stein continued, "In fact, the team also contacted Raul this season, but Raul didn't want to leave Schalke 04, so the transfer didn't happen."

"Hehe, exciting", Li Qiao said.

After listening to Stan's words, Li Qiao felt that this lineup could make a difference even in the Champions League, not to mention the AFC Champions League.

"Stan, let alone your lineup is invincible in China, it is difficult to have opponents even in Asia," Li Qiao said.

"That's not necessarily the case. You know the football tycoons in the Middle East, and they spend a lot of money."

Li Qiao thinks so too.

Stan continued: "Joe, do you want to get revenge on Dynamo Kiev"?
"Hehe, they didn't offend me, why should they take revenge?"

"Because you have money, and money is self-willed," Stein said.

Li Qiao didn't have any dissatisfaction with Kiev in his heart, but he still asked curiously: "How to retaliate?"
"You say a player from Dynamo Kiev, I will sign it for you."

What kind of weird revenge is this.

But Li Qiao really wanted to sign someone, and that was Prahimi.

So Li Qiao told Stan his thoughts.

"What are his characteristics, you can tell me in one sentence."

"Hehe, it's time to test me," Li Qiao thought.

But this is really a problem. Brahimi is a very good defensive midfielder, with a good defensive level, a strong body, and an excellent sense of position. But on the issue, Brahimi is very comprehensive, and there are really no outstanding features.

Li Qiao thought for a long time, and finally thought of what to say.

"His characteristics are very similar to Makelele."

As soon as this remark came out, Stan couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing, which made Li Qiao very embarrassed. Li Qiao thought to himself: "You asked me to say that, why are you laughing, Coach Stan is disrespectful, the older you are, the more dishonest you are."

So Li Qiao said: "What are you laughing at?"

Seeing Li Qiao's serious look, Stan didn't know why, and found it even more funny.
