Super Coach

Yang Cheng was a little strange. Table No. 1 seemed to never entertain guests. Although it was spotless, it was not covered with a tablecloth like the other tables, and the dishes and chopsticks were not placed. It was empty.

It's been vacant for years, but no one ever wants to sit there!

Why? Yang Cheng asked curiously.

That's the seat that belongs to Fritz Walter! Tony Vecino said with a respectful expression.

Yang Cheng was stunned. He naturally knew the name of Fritz Walter. He was the hero of the miracle in Bern and the greatest player in the history of Kaiserslautern. Even the current stadium of the team is based on Fritz Walter. He was named after Walter, which shows his status in this club.

Just give me a position! Yang Cheng said casually.

Tony Vicino was a little surprised. He didn't expect Yang Cheng to say that. Doesn't he know the meaning of these special seats?

But he didn't think much, and immediately greeted Yang Cheng to a round table in the middle.

What do you want to eat? Or drink? We have all kinds of wine here!

Yang Cheng shook his head, I have an appointment to meet here, just give me a glass of boiled water, thank you!

Tony Vecino politely agreed, and not long after, a cup of steaming water was placed in front of Yang Cheng, but Tony Vecino did not leave, but looked at Yang Cheng with interest.

Don't stand there, just sit down and chat! Yang Cheng raised his head and said with a smile, pointing at the opposite side of himself.

Tony sat down very bluntly, and still looked at him with interest, You don't seem to care about where you are at all!

Location? You mean the seat?

Tony nodded, Yes, when the recent head coaches came, they all wanted to sit in a higher position. They used to compete to sit at table 2. Bremer came back four years ago, and it belonged to him. By the way, your predecessor, Clausen, also came here, but he didn't do anything, just left, and then he was never seen again!

When Yang Cheng heard this, he felt happy, which was in line with Clausen's character.

Don't you think it's demeaning to sit here? Tony asked again.

Yang Cheng shook his head, I don't think the identity and majesty of a head coach depends on his own strength and his ability to lead the players to win games on the court, not by competing for seats. If I don't So what if I win table 2? How long can I sit there? On the other hand, if I am real, have real skills, and can bring honor and pride to the team and the players, I believe they will take the initiative to invite me to sit on it.

Besides, I just sit down at a random position, which doesn't mean anything, at best, I can only say that I respect the club's traditions and these players, other than that, I can't think of any other meaning!

Tony Vicino clapped his hands immediately after hearing this, Well said!

Oh, Andres!

It turned out that at some point, Bremer had already stood behind the two of them, obviously listening to what Yang Cheng said just now, but he still looked indifferent and nodded towards Tony.

The latter immediately guessed that Bremer was the person Yang Cheng invited, so he immediately left with an excuse.

Bremer didn't go to his special seat either, but sat down opposite Yang Cheng without saying a word.

Yang Cheng looked at the German football star whose forehead hair was about to fall out. Yang Cheng had heard of the majestic history of the German troika, but his impression was not deep enough, because at that time Yang Cheng had not yet fully contacted and understood football.

But after coming to Germany, especially after coming to Kaiserslautern, he really realized how much influence a player like Bremer has on this team. He is almost a symbol of this team!

Would you like to know,

Why did I choose to coach Kaiserslautern? After Tony brought up a glass of water and left, Yang Cheng took the initiative to speak.

Bremer didn't answer, but just raised his head and looked at Yang Cheng.

What impressed me most about the Bundesliga last season was not winning the championship, but the tears you and the players had in the last round of the Haberland Stadium, and what you said after the game , At that time, I was thinking, if the head coach of this team is me, they will not shed tears, and he will be able to retire with honor!

Of course they were referring to Kaiserslautern players, while he was referring to Bremer.

Don't blame me for being arrogant, and don't say that I don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, because if I didn't have such self-confidence, I wouldn't come here, and I wouldn't agree to coach Kaiserslautern!

Bremmer still didn't speak, and he seemed to be a player who didn't talk much.

Now I am the head coach of Kaiserslautern, and you are the captain of the team, the symbol of the team, and the object of respect for the fans. These are unchangeable facts, so I hope we can sincerely Cooperation, because only in this way, the team can return to the Bundesliga, otherwise, the team will only go down!

Bremer looked at Yang Cheng from the beginning to the end, didn't speak or speak, just watched, but he gave the feeling that he listened to every word Yang Cheng said, but he didn't know what he was thinking. What.

I know that there are many fans in the current team who are opposed to me coaching the team, and many players doubt my ability and even resist, because they think I am only 24 years old, younger than them, and have no ability at all, but I think It is said that age does not mean everything, whether I am capable or not, you will know in the future, but the top priority at the moment is to unite!

I think you should know better than me that only a united Kaiserslautern can return to the Bundesliga!

Bremer still didn't speak, but he kept thinking about Yang Cheng's words in his mind.

From the first day Yang Cheng arrived at the club, he asked him to meet, and with what he heard here just now, Bremer can be sure that Yang Cheng is not an arrogant person, and he is even very tactful and knows how to maneuver. , and he respects the club's traditions from the heart, which left a pretty good impression on Bremer.

But even so, it still can't change Bremmer's suspicion of him. Can a 24-year-old really lead the team back to the Bundesliga?

All the Kaiserslautern players who heard the news at the time suspected that it was a prank by the board of directors. They didn't believe it was true until the major newspapers published it one after another.

Also because of this news, the club left a few more players. As a result, there are only a dozen or so players in the first team who can really play games. It is inevitable to tear down and rebuild, and everyone knows that tearing down and rebuilding is undoubtedly huge. Increased Kaiserslautern upgrade difficulty.

Andres, I can see that you are a person who takes the overall situation into consideration, and I have great respect for the brilliant achievements you have achieved in the past, so I will tell you so much, just hope you understand that our joint efforts It's the most important thing now, if you and the players don't support me, or even act against me, Kaiserslautern will suffer in the end!

I believe that you would not like to see this happen, would you?

This time, Bremer didn't stay silent anymore, but he didn't express his support for Yang Cheng either. He just nodded indifferently and stood up.

I can only guarantee that I will restrain my teammates as much as possible and fulfill my responsibilities as team captain and professional player, but I still have doubts and worries about you. I always think that Frederick hired you to coach. Risking Kaiserslautern's fate!

Yang Cheng also stood up, and said confidently: Then I also want to say, in the near future, you will definitely change your perception of me, I will make everyone believe that, hire me to coach Kaiser Slautern is the wisest choice for Frederick!

Bremer looked deeply at Yang Cheng. He had met many people and experienced many head coaches, but he had never had one like Yang Cheng. His self-confidence came from the bottom of his heart, and no one could doubt him, but he He has no convincing resume at all, and it is really hard to guess where his self-confidence comes from.

I'll watch! Bremer said coldly, then turned and left.

Yang Cheng watched him leave and heaved a sigh of relief. He knew in his heart that Bremer was stabilized by him first, and as long as he stabilized Bremer, other old Kaiserslautern players and youth players would probably not come back. After a lot of trouble, I can at least carry out my plan well in the early stage.

But to completely conquer this group of people, Yang Cheng needs to rely on excellent grades!

From the Isola Bella restaurant, it takes only 5 minutes to walk to the apartment arranged by Yang Cheng in Kaiserslautern.

Due to Yang Cheng's special request, the club specially arranged Yang Cheng, Tim and Paul and other coaching staff members together to rent multiple apartments on the same floor.

As for Ballack and other players, they are arranged elsewhere, also in the Alterbach Street area, which is closer to the Fritz Walter Stadium and the Tillingen Training Ground, so it is convenient to come and go. In addition, veteran players such as Bremer are already nearby. I bought a house, all in the high-end district of Kaiserslautern.

Yang Cheng has no plans to buy a house here for the time being. Even though his salary is enough, he still has no plans because he doesn't know when he will get tired of this city.

When he wants to find new excitement, he will leave, so it is better not to have a house, so as to save time and entanglement.

After returning to the apartment, Paul, Tim and others were all there, and everyone sat down to discuss the training and preparation plan for the new season.

Although this is the first time Yang Cheng has talked with Meulensteen and Moniz, they have already heard a lot about Yang Cheng from Paul Baier, especially about Yang Cheng's great advocacy of offensive football. The concept is very close to the football philosophy of the two of them, which makes the two feel ecstatic.

Since there is still a month left for the team's training camp, Yang Cheng just assigned some tasks. At present, he is mainly familiar with the club and players.

Leaving Tim Hanke to lead the team to arrange the training ground and prepare for the new season, Yang Cheng and Paul Bayer set off to South America for his journey to find the core of the organization.
