Chapter 93 The New Lineup Sets Sail

On Saturday, Guangzhou Tianbao will usher in a new round of opponents in the league. It is a team from Shanghai, and it is an away game. The Tianbao team will fly to Shanghai on Friday night.

The training session on Friday morning was originally a training session the day before the game. Stan was not open to the media. After all, it involved tactical arrangements. However, because of the joining of the big-name star Conca, the club specially arranged to be open to the media for 15 minutes.

In the face of dozens of media's long guns and short guns, most players are still a little impatient. What to do the day before the game is like a biological clock for professional football players. Everyone doesn't want to be disturbed, but in professional football, as an athlete, you have to be worthy of the annual salary given by the club.

Several training assistants took turns feeding the ball to Konka's left foot, and Konka also volleyed vigorously one after another, which made the reporters and fans on the sidelines very enjoyable.

"Crack, click", almost all the firepower of the long guns and short guns was concentrated on Kongka's body.

*****
"Why? I'm new here too," said Prahimi, who was about to step forward to share the aura of Kongka.

Li Qiao pulled Prahimi back, signaling not to cause trouble now, and Prahimi listened to Li Qiao the most, thinking: "Speak with strength later."

The 15-minute open training ended quickly, and the staff began to politely ask the reporters to leave. Although the reporters were still full of ideas, they could only leave in dismay. After all, Tianbao's management is very strict. If they are blacklisted by the club, they will not be eligible to interview in the future.

At the beginning of training, the substitute players put on yellow vests to distinguish them from the main players.

In-team training is still 5v5.

Of course, Prahimi was wearing a yellow vest. This kid wanted to trouble Konka when he started training, but the problem was that he had no chance, because Konka was always by Stan's side, and Stan was dancing and instilling his own tactical ideas to him.

Sun Jihai passed the ball to Nei Kenan. It was a normal pass, but the strength was a little bit weaker.

Just when Sun Jihai was about to raise his hand to express his embarrassment, Prahimi came out to break Nekonan's ball.

Nei Kenan is the big brother no matter in the Iranian national team or in Tianbao. It stands to reason that such a [-]-[-] goal, as a rookie, Prahimi cannot be so serious, but Prahimi is eager to prove himself.

Seeing that Prahimi was serious, Nei Kenan couldn't hold back his face. It was a hard-to-hard confrontation. In an instant, the two strong men collided abruptly.

At this time, the teammates all looked at each other in blank dismay, because the collision just now, just by looking at it, knew it was painful enough.

Stan observed the abnormality here from a distance, and thought: "There are so many media today, so nothing will happen." So he came over immediately to see what happened.

Also running over immediately was Li Qiao, because he saw that his buddy Prahimi was one of the parties involved.

*****
Li Qiao took a stride and stood between Nekonan and Prahimi, separated the two first, and then reached out his hand in a friendly way to pull up the big brother Nekonan.

"Hi, let me tell you, what did you eat to grow up?" Nekonan felt that he was the number one midfielder in Asia, and he usually bullied others by himself, but when he collided with Prahimi just now, it felt like he was bumping into a train.

Prahimi grinned: "I grew up eating daliba".

"What"?Internal Medicine Nan didn't understand very well.

"A type of bread from Eastern Europe," Li Qiao explained.

Stan also came over at this time, looked at Nekonan, who was hit badly, and Brahimi, who was okay at all, and thought: "This is my Essien, Muntari, this figure...".Stan looked at Prahimi and felt that Li Qiao really recommended a treasure to him.

Fortunately, Nei Kenan was very personable, and even patted Brahimi, saying: "Next time you have to give way to me."

Prahimi was still grinning.

After half an hour of training, others were drinking water on the sidelines one after another. At this time, Stan called Li Qiao, Recoba, and Kongka.

The other players were whispering.

"What is the coach doing?"
"Would it be to establish the three of them into an iron triangle, just like the Dutch Three Musketeers back then."

"Poor Hassler, Konka is here, and the main position is gone",
"This may be a wealthy family. The wealthy family has money, but what they don't have is love."

Last season, the players only played in the Chinese Super League, which felt relaxed, happy and comfortable, but this season the club's goal is the AFC Champions League. With the arrival of more and more big names, everyone also realized that the Chinese league is no longer a league that lacks competition and can play soy sauce as before.

Now Tianbao, two people have the deepest sense of crisis. One is Hassler. The young Hassler is not willing to play as a substitute in Guangzhou Tianbao. It may be the general trend for him to leave after the end of the season.

And the other one is Younis. In fact, regardless of whether Li Qiao comes or not, the old Younis is still playing soy sauce in the team. After the season, he will either go to the Middle East league or stay in Tianbao. However, if he stays, Younis will have to significantly reduce his salary. It is difficult for the proud Iraqis to accept this.

As for the others, Tianbao's position in Guangzhou is temporarily stable. Everyone now understands that except for Li Qiao, Conca, and Recoba, no one in this team is irreplaceable in the coach's heart.

Don't look at it as drinking water on the sidelines, but everyone has a lot of thoughts, only Brahimi, who has a carefree personality, doesn't think about anything. He just feels very fresh. He came to Sun Jihai to express his embarrassment just now.

"Have you played for Manchester City?"
"You've seen me play football," Jihai said excitedly.

"No",
"Foreign children are so honest, they don't know how to be polite," Jihai thought to himself.

"Because I saw your big poster at the club," Brahimi said.

Then Prahimi asked questions. Although Jihai felt that Brahimi was boring, Jihai had a good personality and didn't want to make the younger generation unhappy, so he chatted with Prahimi.

After continuing to train, sure enough, Li Qiao, Kongka, and Recoba trained alone and did not practice with everyone.

Everyone understands that Stan is going to create the "Three Musketeers of Tianbao", but after peeking for a while, everyone finds that something is wrong. If this is the case, then the three should pass the ball to each other, or practice running positions.

But the strange thing is that only Li Qiao and Kongka practiced together, and Recoba actually practiced jumping. Yes, it is the jumping practice for the entry-level youth training! !
But after two years of coaching, Stan is now the absolute authority in Tianbao, which is very similar to Guardiola's situation in Barcelona. He also started from the youth team and finally became the head coach of the adult team. The advantage of this is that he knows the team well.

Everyone doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in Stan's gourd, but one thing is for sure, that is, Stan must have his own ideas. Now everyone can't help but mourn for the opponents of the weekend. It seems that Stan is going to try his knife on them this time.

*****
At 1 o'clock in the morning, when Tianbao's special plane was about to land at Pudong Airport, Prahimi saw through the porthole that the city that never sleeps in the East is still so beautiful.

Brahimi has never seen such a beautiful city. Compared with China, Ukraine is obviously not so developed.

"Joe, it's beautiful here," Prahimi said excitedly.

Because the landing time was already Saturday morning, and many teammates were already asleep, Li Qiao signaled Prahimi to keep his voice down, but "Little Buffalo" Brahimi (Essien's nickname was Big Buffalo, and his teammates gave him the nickname "Little Buffalo" because of his figure) seemed to have inexhaustible strength, and he still didn't feel tired at all.

The reason for choosing the early morning flight is two purposes, to hide from the media, and to hide from the fans. With the current reputation of Guangzhou Tianbao, if you don’t choose the flight at this time, it will cause traffic jams.

But when the team's bus drove out of the airport, there were still many people waiting for the plane. A large number of fans held up Guangzhou Tianbao's scarves and shouted the team's name.

The Tianbao players are very relieved to wait until this point to see themselves. It is not that China does not have diehard fans like Europe. The key is whether the football you play is worthy of them. At this time, the team feels not only the glory, but also the pressure.

At this time, Prahimi saw a cute female fan waving at him, and he also waved vigorously at the female fan. Prahimi, who was accustomed to racial discrimination in Ukraine, felt the friendliness of Chinese people without racial discrimination for the first time.

"I will definitely marry a Chinese wife in the future," Prahimi said.

Li Qiao chuckled, "You think far."

*****
The commentators for this game are still old friends of the fans Shen Fangjian and Tao Wei.

After hastily looking at the starting lineup, Shen Fangjian exclaimed: "Does Stan have a grudge against Shanghai? We saw that Guangzhou Tianbao started Li Qiao, Kongka and Recoba at the same time."

Tao Wei joked: "It is estimated that there were too many fans asking for refunds in the last game, so Stan had to let Recoba play early in this game."

"But it's a bit too ruthless," Shen Fangjian said.

"It may also be preparations for the upcoming AFC Champions League. After all, the away game in Thailand was very difficult," Tao Wei said.

"Yes, next Tuesday, Guangzhou Tianbao will go to the away game against Buriram, Thailand. At that time, Director Tao and I will also explain to you."

"Buriram's moves are very rough, a bit like the British second-tier league. Shoveling people is basically shoveling ankles. Against Guangzhou Tianbao, which is mainly technical, Buriram is indeed a difficult opponent," Tao Wei added.

"Yes, but we still pay attention to this game first. The captains of both sides will choose sides and the game will start soon."
