Chapter 146 Who Will Be The Core?

"This is Long Shute, his name should be familiar to all of you."

Before the training session early the next morning, Team Leader Cao introduced the newcomer to all his teammates with a smile:

"He is also a member of the national team now, everyone applauds and welcomes him!"

Under the leadership of the leader, sparse applause rang out.

In order to better control the national team, Gao Hongbo excluded almost all veterans over 30 years old in the selection of personnel, and the main players were mainly in the 85-87 age group, only Dewey, Qu Bo, Zhao Peng, Yang Hao , Wang Song and other four or five players are pre-85 players.

Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Li Weifeng, Zhao Junzhe and other captain-level players who were very popular before the game were all excluded. It is said that these players are already very good and do not need to be inspected. After the start of the world preliminaries, they will definitely Consider recruiting them; and the Asian Cup is only to train recruits for the 2014 World Cup, and will not deliberately pursue results.

This kind of selection and appointment has undoubtedly been criticized by public opinion since the announcement of the squad. Everyone thinks that this year's national team is really amazing, and there are still more than two months before the start of the Asian Cup. , but they have already thought of the reason for their failure...

"Hello everyone, I'm very happy to join the national team."

With a smile on his face, Long Shute greeted these seniors who were not much older than himself:

"Brother, I am young and ignorant. If there is anything inappropriate, please criticize and bear with me. Oh, I have chosen a place tonight to give you a good impression. Unless you already have a date in Amsterdam, you must not miss it. "

After listening to his words, most people smiled.

"You're pretty much the same kid," Li Bing said with a smile, "the day after tomorrow there will be a competition, what will you do if you get everyone drunk?"

Long Shute laughed: "Then invite Team Leader Wei, Director Li, Director Gao, and other coaches to conduct on-site supervision together, but in order to let everyone relax, I have to wrong you to go to the private room."

Long Shute didn't care that the cost of banqueting more than 60 people from the team (including nearly 30 players, a coaching team of more than 30 people, logistics personnel, and some leading family members traveling with public funds) had exceeded his salary for a week.

These people are basically the main members who will fight side by side with him in the national team in the next few years. As the host, it is impossible for him not to greet everyone for a meal.

Head coach Gao Hongbo watched the players laughing and laughing for a long time, and finally coughed: "Okay, it's a good thing to have new players joining, but now it's training time, don't delay the business."

Assistant coaches Fu Bo and Ou Chuyang quickly put away their smiles and directed the players to warm up with loud voices.

The training on the first day is all recovery training, and the intensity is also very low.

After all, the intense Chinese Super League just ended on November 11th. After only ten days of rest, these teammates flew non-stop across Asia and half of Europe. They were physically and mentally exhausted. Still jet lagged.

Considering that the Asian Cup in January will be held in Qatar in the Gulf region, Long Shute suggested to the team leader and head coach Cao that they should simply place the next preparations in the Netherlands, Ajax and the second-tier teams of Eredivisie clubs or The youth training teams are very happy to be their opponents in the warm-up match, of course, the premise is to pay a certain amount of appearance fee.

After a simple request and report, this matter was decided.

Anyway, with the current reputation of the Chinese national football team, it is difficult to find a suitable training base in China, and the warm-up matches can't earn ticket money, so I have to ask my grandpa and grandma to coordinate the relationship between all parties, and I have to see which city Only when there are no stars in the stadium to hold concerts can we barely play a game...

From mid-November to the end of December, the national team lived happily in Amsterdam for one and a half months.

You say it's too expensive?

Sorry, the Chinese Football Association lacks everything, but it has never been short of money. Otherwise, why are there so many overseas training camps every year?

And... do you think you don't spend money in China?

Domestic invoices are better! -

When the training started, Long Shute had a more intuitive understanding of the characteristics of this national team.

There are many strong, energetic and tough defensive generals around him, such as Zhao Xuri, Zhang Linpeng, and Feng Xiaoting. There are also speedy assaulters such as Yu Hai and Yu Hanchao. Deng Zhuoxiang and Hao Junmin's pass and control skills are also remarkable. Although Gao Lin's shooting skills are not good, but no one can replace the role of the bridgehead in the frontcourt. In addition, there are two kung fu masters Dai Lin and Tan Wangsong on the bench, and the bench has become daunting.

But the weaknesses of these main players are far more obvious than a little bit:

The defensive awareness of the defensive generals is generally weak, and there are a lot of phenomena of swarming attacks when defending, or two or three people short-circuit their brains at the same time, watching the opponent drive straight in without defense.

The fast horse on the wing will only bury his head and rush forward in a straight line. Once he is allowed to cut inside, he will definitely lose the ball; the crossed ball has never found his teammates, and it is all scarred glass.

The core of the playmaker is not only procrastinating in rhythm and slow in speed, but also falls down at the touch of a touch. He can't hold the ball at all when he has no foot skills.

As for the main striker, it seems that there is no need to specifically hack him.

The most important point is that they seem to be naturally thinking about what to do if they fail. No matter what opponent they face, they seem to be always ready to say the phrase "We did our best".

Wanting to conquer the world with such a group of teammates, Long Shute once again felt the enormous pressure on his shoulders...

-

"drop!"

Assistant coach Fu Bo blew the whistle again, and then announced loudly:

"The goal counts, 3-1, that's it."

Gao Hongbo, who was standing on the sidelines, shook his head slightly.

This 30-minute intra-team match was specially arranged by him.

The core of one side is Deng Zhuoxiang, his confidant who has been vigorously promoted and served as the core of the national team for more than a year, while the core of the other side is Long Shute who just joined the team.

Judging from the configuration of the lineups of the two sides, his intention is obvious: he hopes that everyone can find their own position through this confrontation.

Everyone has a little bit of selfishness. From the bottom of his heart, Gao Hongbo still hopes that Deng Zhuoxiang, whom he has single-handedly supported, can continue to play the core role. As for Long Shute, perhaps he can start from the position of the midfielder and gradually adapt to the team's style of play.

But the ending shattered his selfishness in an instant!

Obviously he was playing as a defensive midfielder, but Long Shute dominated the game with two goals and an indirect assist.

On the other hand, Deng Zhuoxiang, who served as the front midfielder, was almost unable to move an inch under Long Shute's defense. Not to mention organizing the offense, he didn't even have a chance to connect the ball!

For a full 30 minutes, as the core of the playmaker, he only touched the ball a mere 6 times!

Get the ball with your back?

His turn was too slow, even before he even turned his body, Long Shute stabbed the ball from behind diagonally.

An early forward pass?

Excuse me, can you match the most famous sprinter in the Eredivisie?

Advance with the ball after retreating?

Sorry, you are facing a guy who can defend against Ronaldo, Kaka, and Ibrahimovic alone. If you are confident that you can single-handedly, please come on.

Diving in the breakthrough to get a free kick?

Sorry, Long Shute has a partner named Luis Suarez. If you are confident that the diving waves are higher than him, please perform your performance.

The final result was that unless it was the simplest face-to-face short pass, he couldn't escape Long Shute's defensive area at all!

Even if it was a short pass, he could protect the ball for no more than two seconds. As long as Long Shute used his strong body to push and rub lightly, he immediately and involuntarily gave up possession of the ball.

The most irritating thing is... the more and more experienced Long Shute's fighting strength will only make his center of gravity slightly deflected, but it is not enough to make him fall to the ground!

Even if you want to dive, it's too late!

Gao Hongbo shook his head as he looked at his disciple with a dejected look on his face, a thought jumped out of his heart.

There are still two months to go before the Asian Cup, and it is too late to replace the core now, right?
