long live football

At eight o'clock in the evening, when Carl turned off the lights in the office and was about to leave, he found Koch standing at the door of the office.

The other party's demeanor and posture seemed to have been standing there for a long time.

When his eyes met Karl's, Koch lowered his head without saying a word.

Carl turned on the lights in the office again: "Come in."

Koch followed in, deliberately ignored Carl's gesture to let him sit down, stood in front of the desk like a statue, and began to confess as soon as he stood up: "The person you said violated the team rules is me, boss. "

Carl didn't respond to Koch's words, and his expression looked like he was waiting for Koch to continue.

In any case, there was no scolding, which has given Koch more courage to confess: "I swear it's the first time I go to that kind of place! They all say that the women there are beautiful, well-shaped, and knowledgeable, and they say The men who go in and out are all socialites, saying it's a good place to socialize, so we, no, I'm just curious to see... I know I was in a daze at the time, you can punish me any way you want !"

Carl raised his eyebrows, his entire expression questioning the word "they".

And Koch read his expression.

"They are my... former friends, the ones handed over by the society." Among the five people, only Koch decided to confess tonight. He is not sure whether other teammates will change their minds tomorrow, and it is not clear whether the boss knows How many.But until the other teammates are ready to tell the truth, Koch can't betray them: "But I swear I didn't hire prostitutes! Boss, I really didn't spend the night in that kind of place, I didn't take people to the hotel, and I didn't take them Call them with your business card! In fact, I felt dizzy when I stayed in that kind of place for an hour. I'm getting a little nauseous."

This may be the difference between people, Carl thought, compared to the strong male hormones, sweat, and feet smell in the locker room after every game, he is quite inclined to the smell of perfume that kills people.

Still did not get a response from Carl, Koch was worried that his boss would not believe him, so in order to prove his innocence, he gritted his teeth and said, "I, I—"

Carl finally spoke: "Still a chicken?"

Koch closed his mouth tightly, but his expression told Carl the answer.

"Don't be shy." Carl glanced at him: "I didn't live at night when I was your age."

Koch's expression was full of shock: "I will be 18 in two months!" He has never had a girlfriend because in the past few years of adolescence, he either worried about his family's livelihood or couldn't play football. Worrying, the little energy left is dedicated to forming cliques and fighting in gangs, so it is understandable to be an extremely rare CN in the circle of friends... But a man like the boss didn't even exist when he was 18...

Carl recalled: "18 years old? At that time, I studied every day until one or two o'clock in the evening, and slept four or five hours a day."

Koch asked with innocent and naturally curious eyes: "Then you are the boss, when did you start having nightlife?"

Carl's response was to take out a hand and slap him: "Boy, you ask too many questions."

Koch's disappointment was palpable.

Carl suddenly realized their serious digression: Koch came to confess his mistakes, but he should have reprimanded the other party with a serious face.But look at what they're discussing now—what's the reason neither of them had their first night until they were adults? !

God.

Carl's very obvious diversion: "In short, I'm very relieved that you didn't really make an irreparable mistake. This time I choose to believe you, but I need you to swear—"

"I swear!" Koch rushed before Carl finished speaking: "I will never make the same mistake again in the future!"

Carl nodded: "You can go home. I will find an opportunity to inform you about the specific content of the punishment in the next two days."

Koch said that no matter what decision Carl made, he would accept it.

When Koch turned to leave, Karl suddenly stopped him again: "People are always responsible for what they have done." Karl said meaningfully: "The facts are there, the individual does not represent the whole, Not saying it doesn’t mean you don’t know.”

Koch nodded slowly, and left the office building with three points of gain and seven points of confusion.

When he was about to get home, Koch suddenly had a flash of inspiration: Boss, is he implying something?Did he know more than they thought?

Maybe he has to inform those friends who are still lucky.

……

On the second day, Ozil, Ogo and the Bender brothers came to Karl to admit their mistakes in three groups.

They used roughly the same explanation: ignorant and curious, being taken to that occasion by social friends (and insisting that they never saw a single member of their teammate in that absurd situation), they thought One such experience was enough to swear never to do it again (at least not while he was still serving under Karl).

Karl was sure that they had colluded with each other, probably because he felt that individual crimes were more forgivable by him than group crimes?

He didn't know whether to laugh at their blind buddy's loyalty, or angry that they weren't telling him the [-] percent truth after all.

But he was basically satisfied with this result, at least no one was really going to upset him and lie to him to the end.

Finally, Karl informed the five of them of their punishment:

First of all, Koch's three games, and the remaining four people's four team suspensions.Suspending five people at once is too eye-catching, and there will be a lot of discussion about it, both within the team and the outside world, so the suspension of Karl will be implemented in the name of rotation.

In addition to reducing the exposure of the players, the purpose of the suspension will also cause them to suffer a certain loss of income-now many players' contract terms, the salary is directly linked to the number of appearances, for example, "This season's appearance rate reaches What percentage is more, what percentage is the salary increase next season, what percentage is less than the appearance rate, and the salary is to be reduced by what percentage next season" and "Only by getting what percentage of appearances can you get 100% salary, playing If the rate is reduced, the salary will also be reduced by what percentage", and so on.

The second is to double the training. When other players finish training and go home to rest, they have to stay on the court and train spontaneously.One is the need for the team's new tactics. The triangle running system undoubtedly consumes a lot of players' energy.Second, Karl was a bit selfish. He was always thinking about exhausting this group of energetic youngsters until they were out of breath. They couldn't sneak out at night to have fun.

Thinking about their first crime, but also about the seriousness of the matter, Karl promised them that they would keep this matter a secret and seal it up forever.

Carl finally said the following passage to each of the five people: "People who make mistakes usually take two paths. One is to become mature, know how to cherish, and carefully avoid making mistakes again. The other is Completely tore off the mask of following the rules, based on the greed and fluke of one thing and two, and never returned on the wrong path, I hope you can become the former."

……

In the No.15 round of the Bundesliga, 1860 Munich challenged Kaitslautern away.

At the press conference one hour before the game, the two teams announced their starting lineups, and the starting lineup of the Lions caused a lot of discussion.

First of all, in terms of midfield, Ozil and Lars Bender, who are very familiar to the fans and media for half a season, failed to enter the starting list.Although, in order to avoid excessive use of young players, Karl will not let the underage players play the whole game, but it may be to start them and then replace them in the 60th or 70th minute, like this. It is the first time in three months that Ozil and Russ are not included in the starting list.

For such a change, the reporters can only speculate with each other: "It stands to reason that today's game is the best time to train young players, especially Lars and Ozil, they are both good at organizing offense in the midfield (Kate Slaw Teng currently ranks at the bottom of the Bundesliga, and one can imagine how fragile their defense is), and Oston did not arrange the two to play. Is it to save energy and let them play all the way in the third round of the German Cup in the near future? The audience?"

Some reporters also asked Karl in this way, but Karl did not give a positive answer.

The "Bild" reporter Biermann knew the reason, but he would not tell his colleagues.

When other colleagues thought that 1860 Munich was just doing team rotation, Biermann was busy lamenting Karl Oston's caution. If he hadn't known the inside story in advance, he might have thought it was just a normal game rotation.

Bierman saw the expression on Carl's face when he first saw the photo a few days ago. The other party was really angry. The Lions must have gone through some troubles these days, but don't mention him, everyone else is well-informed The media didn't get any wind about this matter. Should he admire Auston's strong control over the locker room?Or should we admire the other party's smooth and low-key means?

However, this aroused Biermann's interest in Munich 1860 even more. The tighter the locker room was, the more he wanted to find out... What he pursued was the sense of accomplishment after learning the secret, even if the secret was not actually It is worthless.

Then came the goalkeeper selection, with Hoffman at the top of the list and Koch on the bench.

Although many people feel sorry for Koch (his performance in the goalkeeper position is really amazing), the discussion caused by Hoffman's return to the starting lineup is the least. After all, Hoffman is the captain and his injury It has also been completely cured. If Karl keeps pressing him on the bench and stubbornly uses the too young Koch, it will be detrimental to the stability of the team.

However, some people predicted: "At most one to two seasons, after Lambert Koch's basic skills are thoroughly practiced, Hoffman will either retire or be sold."

The final change is the team's tactics.Because Ozil and Lars failed to play, Munich 1860's midfielders were a little short, so Karl arranged three players on the front line to increase offensive power. The partner of Portillo and Jekas is the team's partner. The standard configuration, and the other one is a surprise.

Sandwiched between Portillo and Yekas as a center is a player who makes many fans feel a little strange.

Edin Dzeko.

Since the Bosnian moved to Munich 1860 for nearly half a season, he has always played the role of a substitute player, with an average playing time of less than 30 minutes per game.

This is the first time Dzeko has appeared in the starting roster.
