Legendary Godfather

Tong Yi also said that De Bruyne learned about Courtois' situation and asked De Bruyne to find out.

Here, Tong Yi answered Nagelsmann's call again and informed him to go to Belgium.

To be honest, Nagelsmann was also shocked.

Does Belgium have so many good players?

Nagelsmann still went to Belgium. His main task was Witsel. Then he took a look at Courtois and signed him directly if he could sign him back.

However, Tong Yi said that signing Courtois should be quite difficult.

Courtois became the team's main force as soon as the new season started, although this was affected by the departure of the two goalkeepers. But the team is willing to believe in the young Courtois and let him become the main force, which shows that the whole team is still very optimistic about him and attaches great importance to him.

Moreover, Courtois himself knows that since the team has lost two goalkeepers, his opportunity will come in the new season. He is very likely to play the main or second goalkeeper position. How can he leave!

Therefore, signing Courtois should be quite difficult.

After all, Tong Yi cannot guarantee Courtois' starting position.

Of course, Tong Yi also asked Nagelsmann to tease Mignolet. If it succeeds, it will be an unexpected surprise. If it fails, forget it.

Nagelsmann said directly, "Okay, don't worry, I will take care of it."

Then, Nagelsmann went to Belgium.

Naturally, Tong Yi stayed in South Africa and continued to watch this World Cup.

In fact, Tong Yi is waiting to sign a contract with Otamendi.

During this period, the defending champion Paraguay was tied with the Coppa Italia and Spain lost to Switzerland, which caused a huge sensation.

Especially Spain's loss to Switzerland was a huge upset.

At this time, naturally a lot of media laughed at Tong Yi. Isn’t Tong Yi optimistic about the Spanish national team winning the championship? They can't even beat Switzerland, how can they win the championship? With the performance of the Spanish national team, reaching the quarterfinals is a luxury.

Yes, many people are looking down on Spain at this time.

There are even many people saying that the Spanish national team's approach is outdated and simply no longer works.

France's famous Lizarazu stood up and said, "Now everyone knows that the Chinese guy is talking nonsense, right? Does a team like Spain deserve to win the championship? Just look at it, the one who can reach the semi-finals is Our French team, our French team will win the championship this time!”

The French are really confident in their team.

And England's famous legend Dalglish also stood up and said, "As of now, the predictions of the Chinese soft rice man are not accurate at all. So far, I really can't see anything worthy of praise in Spain and Uruguay. Can these two teams actually advance to the Final Four? If so, here's all that's involved

Shame on the World Cup team! They don't deserve it! We in England are worthy, we in England have the majesty of an emperor, we will win! "

Well, the English think so too.

There is also a famous player on the German side who said, "The Spanish national team's performance is indeed a bit abnormal, but I still believe in their strength. They should be able to adjust themselves in the following games. There is no team that is too strong in this group. , it is still very possible for them to qualify with two wins. As for Uruguay, I really don’t see what strength they have that is worthy of being praised by a soft-hearted man. If he is allowed, he doesn’t even know it!"

At this time, those who criticized and humiliated Tong Yi more were naturally the fans.

They all think Tong Yi is a joke.

Uruguay has not advanced to the knockout rounds of the World Cup in 40 years. What ability do they have to advance to the semi-finals of the World Cup? Are you kidding me?

Of course, at this time, there were many media reporters who wanted to interview Tong Yi.

Countless media reporters were looking for Tong Yi in South Africa, but obviously they couldn't find her despite their abilities.

However, Chinese reporters Song Guotao and Ji Shengcheng, as well as China National Television's Duan Jianhong, found Tong Yi. Because they already knew the hotel where Tong Yi was staying, they came over.

Duan Jianhong asked, "Coach Tong, after the first round of the South Africa World Cup group stage, has your opinion changed?"

Song Guotao and Ji Shengcheng both stared at Tong Yi closely. Song Guotao arranged his notebook and pen to prepare for recording, while Ji Shengcheng took out his computer and voice recorder and prepared to start.

Tong Yi smiled slightly and said, "My opinion remains unchanged. Germany, Spain, the Netherlands and Uruguay can reach the semi-finals of this World Cup. Spain will defeat the Netherlands and win the championship, while Germany will defeat Uruguay and win the third place." Three.”

Although Song Guotao was very shocked, he still recorded it seriously.

To be honest, Duan Jianhong and the other three don't know why Tong Yi is so optimistic about Uruguay and Spain. Forget about Spain, after all, they are the champions of the last European Cup. And what about Uruguay? What do they have? Uruguay has not reached the knockout round of the World Cup for 40 consecutive years.

Director Tong, what happened to you?

Song Guotao immediately asked, "Coach Tong, why are you so optimistic about the Uruguay team?"

Tong Yi bluntly said, "Uruguay's strength is generally underestimated. They have the potential to become a dark horse. Aguero, Cavani and Forlan are very strong on the front line. This is definitely the best in this world." Ranked among the top five forward combinations, they do not lack the ability to score goals. And Uruguay

There are Godin and Demichelis on the back line. Both of them are wealthy center backs, and their defensive strength is not bad. "

Song Guotao writes very quickly, but his handwriting is very beautiful. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why he insists on recording interview transcripts with a pen.

Duan Jianhong and the three looked at each other. It seemed that Tong Yi was really optimistic about Uruguay.

Tong Yi continued, "And Uruguay's goalkeeper Muslera is also very good. Although he is a little irritable and unstable, it cannot hide that he is an excellent goalkeeper. More importantly, this guy has a big heart. Especially in this kind of competition, he will perform even better. Moreover, I can tell you that Muslera’s ability to save penalty kicks is very strong. This may be the key for the Uruguayans to advance to the semi-finals!”

Duan Jianhong and others thought Tong Yi was a bit neurotic. He actually predicted that Uruguay's advancement to the semi-finals would depend on the goalkeeper saving penalty kicks? This is too ridiculous!

It's not that they don't want to believe Tong Yi, but it's just too ridiculous.

Duan Jianhong and the other three looked at each other, and then Duan Jianhong reminded Tong Yi, "Director Tong, it's not okay to send out this report like this, right?"

Tong Yi thought more highly of these three people, who were a little worried about him, and were not the kind of people who would do anything for sales and sensation.

Tong Yi thinks it’s good.

He nodded directly and said, "Just send it like this, it'll be fine! I trust my own judgment!"

Seeing that Tong Yi persisted, the three of them had no choice but to nod, indicating that they understood.

Ji Shengcheng continued to ask, "Does Director Tong really not change your views and opinions?"

Tong Yi smiled slightly and said, "Is this my only prediction for the semi-finals of this World Cup? I am optimistic about them, and I also believe in myself."

The three of them sighed again.

Tong Yi pondered for a moment, and then said, "Well, let me say a little more. In my opinion, Italy and France, the champions and runners-up of the last World Cup, will be eliminated at the bottom of the group. They will not advance to the top 16." !”

Duan Jianhong and the others' pupils were dilated, their hearts were shocked, their mouths were wide open, and they looked at Tong Yi infatuatedly.

They were all stunned by Tong Yi's bold words.

impossible?

Italy and France were the champions and runners-up last year. No matter how bad they are, they can't fail to qualify in the group, let alone be at the bottom of the group, right?

Duan Jianhong's hand holding the microphone trembled a little, and he said, "This..."

Tong Yi smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, this is my truest opinion. You don't have to cover up for me, just say it like it is. I believe in my own judgment!"

Can you believe it, he remembers it clearly in his own memory.

This World Cup is really a match between the defending champion Italy and the previous one.

What a shame for the runner-up French team!

Duan Jianhong and the other three confirmed again and again that Tong Yi was serious, so they sent out the explosive remarks. This immediately caused an uproar!

Media around the world reprinted the news from "Sports Weekly" and Sina Sports, and fans all over the world saw Tong Yi's appalling remarks. Suddenly Tong Yi became the target of public attack. Countless people ridiculed Tong Yi for being flattering and a villain.

Of course, there were also many celebrities who came out and criticized Tong Yi crazily.

Especially the celebrities in Italy and France. The celebrities in these two countries scolded Tong Yi to his death. Even celebrities from these two countries called on the Serie A and French Ligue 1 teams to boycott Tong Yi, ban Tong Yi from entering Italian football and French football, and even called on the Serie A and French Ligue 1 teams not to make deals with Tong Yi. Not allowed to sell players to Tong Yi...

They feel they have been insulted!

Italy and France were the champions and runners-up in the last World Cup. How could we not make it out of the group? How could we be at the bottom of the group?

This Tong Yi is crazy!

And this guy Tong Yi actually said that Uruguay's back line is wealthy, and that Uruguay's forward combination is one of the top five in the World Cup. This is too much nonsense. What's even more ironic is that this guy Tong Yi thinks that Muslera is a goalkeeper who saves penalty kicks. It was Muslera who saved Uruguay's penalty kicks and sent them to the semi-finals?

Funny, Tong Yi, a soft-boiled guy, is really funny.

Now the celebrities and media in Italy and France have figured out that this guy Tong Yi really can't do anything but rely on women!

In their eyes, Tong Yi is a madman.

Yes, at this time, almost no one believed Tong Yi. They feel that this guy Tong Yi is a complete fool and a person who deceives the world and steals his reputation.

In fact, even German celebrities are a little skeptical.

Is it really Tong Yi who was able to achieve such amazing results at Munich 1860? Could there be someone else?

Even at this time, Klinsmann, who once supported Tong Yi crazily, believed that Tong Yi's prediction was a bit outrageous. He suspected that when Tong Yi answered these questions, he must have drank fake wine. How could the champions and runners-up of the last World Cup be eliminated at the bottom of the group? How could Uruguay advance to the semi-finals by relying on their goalkeeper to save penalty kicks?

These are all too absurd and unrealistic.

Now everyone sees Tong Yi as a joke, but Tong Yi doesn't care.

When this World Cup is over, these guys will know how stupid they are now!

Tong Yi no longer shuts up these matters, he is going to deal with the transfer. The team will assemble around early July, and there is not much time left for him now. We must get busy and finalize the signings for the new season as soon as possible.
