Chinese players in Europe

Chapter 136
Can you still laugh after losing the game?

Everyone was startled, and wondered in their hearts that it was because of two consecutive defeats that the head coach couldn't hold on to the overwhelming criticism and ridicule first and collapsed?

Thinking of this, a look of despair appeared on the faces of some young players.Even the head coach can't hold on anymore, how can we play games in the future?What about victory?What about champions!Thank goodness for not repeating the mistakes of last season!

Lannick didn't care about the strange eyes of the players, he stepped forward to gather everyone together, and said loudly:
"Gentlemen, these two games were lost at the right time! It's a great thing!"

Hearing these words, the disappointment in everyone's hearts became stronger, and even Mo Fei had an undisguised loneliness in his eyes.I am afraid that at this moment, all the players will think that Mr. is crazy!To say that losing is a good thing, this... even the assistant coaches Zeidler and Maric looked at Lannick in shock.They also thought that something had happened to Lannik, and wanted to go forward, but Lannik waved his hand to stop them.

"Gentlemen, you heard me right, yes, I said losing is a good thing."

"Some people may have doubts, but please think about it for yourself, what have you done in the past two weeks! Don't fool yourself with the excuse that you lost the game because of physical and mental exhaustion! This excuse is shit!"

"Let me tell you, the real reason is not this, but you are proud! In the face of consecutive victories, you are proud! You think that the opponents in the Bundesliga are nothing more than this, and you can win easily. Yes, you are not Not looking squarely at your opponent! This is disrespect for your opponent! It is even more disrespect for yourself and the team!"

Following Lannick's words, many players lowered their heads deeply.The coach is right, they are indeed proud and underestimated the enemy.Since they can win six consecutive league victories, then seven consecutive victories, eight consecutive victories... and even the fantasy of winning the championship with an undefeated record.But now it seems that I am so ignorant, such an idiot!

In the crowd, Mo Fei, Deng Baba, and others who used to speak out in the face of the media were extremely red and hot. If there was a gap in the ground, they would slip in without hesitation.They did feel ashamed and deeply remorseful...

"But gentlemen, I don't want to care about these things now. You have already been punished. Those 'dregs' who praised you before but now satirized you have already slapped you in the face. I don't want to embarrass you anymore! What's more I'm in a good mood now!"

very good mood?Did you hear me right?All the players looked at the head coach in disbelief.

"Yes, I'm in a good mood! Because I found out that the reason for our failure lies in ourselves, and has nothing to do with other people. What does this mean? It means that we are invincible! The only one who can defeat us is ourselves!"

"Why are those who curse at us so crazy? Because they are afraid! They are afraid that a strong Hoffenheim will beat them to pieces. Yes, they are afraid of us!"

All the players' eyes lit up at this moment.Yeah, why are they scolding us?Why blame us?Because they are afraid, afraid of us, afraid of a mighty Hoffenheim!If they continue to sink like this, they don't know who will be the one who will benefit from the snickering in the end. Anyway, Hoffenheim must be the one who gets hurt!Sink?Then he has been bearing the infamy of "pseudo-strong team" and "hillies" all the time?No, we are not reconciled!

All the players clenched their fists and stared at their head coach with twinkling eyes.Now they need the guidance of the head coach!

"So, gentlemen! It's not Hoffenheim's style to do nothing after being slapped so badly! What should we do so that those who want to see our jokes find out that it turns out They themselves are the biggest joke!" Lannick was very satisfied with the performance of the players. At first he thought it would take a lot of effort to restore the confidence of these boys, but now...Young people are really impulsive , as long as it is excited, it will be full of strong fighting spirit.

"Slap them back! Beat them like pigs! Let them know that we are - Hoffenheim!"

A voice suddenly took over Lannik's words, and that vicious tone could not help but attract everyone's attention.

Seeing all his teammates looking at him with smiles on their faces, Mo Fei couldn't help but patted his head in embarrassment.He was so excited by the head coach's words just now, he wished he could play the game right now, and then vent all his anger.

"Ha ha!"

"That's right! Slap back hard! Let them know that we are invincible Hoffenheim!"

"What's up with 'Hillbillies'? We can still beat 'em up!"

Seeing the players fighting together, Rangnick's heart finally fell back to the ground, and the haze that had hovered over the Hoffenheim players for the past few days was finally swept away.

After this experience, Hoffenheim will face all difficulties and obstacles with a more mature attitude, without fear of any challenges!
In the next few days, the players really showed high fighting spirit in training, and they were also very active in running. Many players were influenced by Murphy and volunteered to stay and practice together.Lannick didn't stop.If in the past, after such a high-load and high-volume training, he did not approve of players continuing to train, this would increase the probability of player injury.But the situation is different now, the morale of the players is high, and the anger accumulated in their hearts needs to be vented, otherwise problems will arise sooner or later.Therefore, after instructing the assistant coaches and team doctors to keep an eye on the players and stop them from training if something goes wrong, they stopped asking.

Rangnick is very pleased with the good competitive state shown by the players.However, he also knows that Hoffenheim is now on the cusp. Only by winning can the team's self-confidence be truly restored; only by winning can all doubts and criticisms be silenced; In order to make this team truly mature!
The mentality of the players is very positive now, but if they fail to win the next game, the self-confidence and fighting spirit that they have inspired with words will collapse, and the speed of collapse will be faster than before.This is the cruel football world.As long as you continue to win, all problems will no longer be problems.

Now only one victory can completely make the team get rid of the shadow of two consecutive losses.Therefore, Hoffenheim is bound to win the game against Nuremberg on Saturday!In this regard, Lannick is full of confidence.

Nuremberg is not a strong opponent. They have always been in the middle and lower reaches of the Bundesliga. Last season, they were once in the quagmire of relegation.However, their performance this season is impressive. Under the leadership of the new head coach Erning, they held high the banner of offense and achieved three wins, five draws and one loss with a total of 14 points, ranking seventh in the league table.

But Rangnick is not worried. Although the opponent has performed well this season, compared with Hoffenheim, there is still a certain gap in strength.Moreover, the opponent is still a well-known "nervous knife", and their performance is extremely unstable. This can be seen from the fact that they can win three consecutive victories but also immediately draw five consecutive games. In the last round, they even lost at home. A 0 to 3.

Nuremberg's style tends to be offensive. They often ignore their own defense and blindly attack. They either win in the attack or die in the attack. This is the main factor for their unstable performance.

This is very similar to Hoffenheim. Hoffenheim is also known for its strong attack power. Unlike the opponent, they pay more attention to defense.After all, the saying "offense wins the fans, defense wins the championship" is not unreasonable, but Hoffenheim not only wants to win the fans, but also wants to win the championship.This is also what Rangnick's Hoffenheim insists on, paying equal attention to offense and defense.

attack?We are stronger than you!defense?We are stronger than you!Rangnick firmly believes that Hoffenheim will take advantage of the advantage of the home court to give the opponent a head-on blow and win this long-lost victory under the circumstances of the right time, place and people!
However, the sudden bad news from the team disrupted Rangnick's tactical deployment: Eduardo strained his thigh muscle during confrontation training.Although after preliminary diagnosis and treatment by the team doctor, the injury is not serious, but it needs at least two to three weeks of rest and recuperation.In other words, the team's main right midfielder will miss the midweek game with Nuremberg due to injury.

"Damn it! How did you get hurt at this juncture!"

Lannick cursed in a low voice, feeling a little irritable, but he had no choice but to ask the staff to rush Eduardo to the hospital.Eduardo has always been an important part of his tactical system. His breakthroughs and passes are both sharp weapons to help the team tear apart the opponent's defense. This absence will inevitably weaken the team's strength.Fortunately, the team's substitutes are also in good condition recently. For example, Mo Fei's performance is very eye-catching. I was worried about how to give the opponent more playing time, so I just took this opportunity to let him play.

Thinking of this, Lannick felt relieved again.Allowing his favorite disciple to receive more training through more games will surely allow him to grow up faster.And he also firmly believes that the appearance of Murphy can also make up for the defects left by Eduardo's absence.Although the styles of the two are not the same, they both have one thing in common, that is, a sharp breakthrough.Eduardo inherited the delicate dribbling unique to South American players, while Mo Fei's breakthrough opened and closed, giving people an indomitable momentum.Although Mo Fei's passing accuracy is not as good as the opponent's, but his unrestrained imagination and creativity are beyond the reach of Eduardo.
