Chapter 325: The fight during the winter break

After December 19, with the end of the third round of the German Cup, the first half of the Bundesliga game officially came to an end. Wolfsburg knocked Leverkusen out of the German Cup with Gao Shunyao's head hammer. It was a revenge for losing points to them in the league, and he also sighed.

Although victory is relieved, it does not mean that it has much meaning. Wolfsburg's 1-0 defeat of Leverkusen seems to have added a glorious touch to his victory, but in fact, when the game is over, Gao Shunyao, who is out of breath, thinks about the second half of the season, and Wolfsburg still needs Fighting on the three fronts, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Multi-line combat is really a difficult task for Wolfsburg. If they really play in the second half of the season, it is hard to say whether they can play well.

Since it's the winter break, Wolfsburg will naturally summarize his situation in the first half of the season. In the first half of the season, they have played extremely hard, but there are still many shortcomings. Although they won 21 games and lost only 3 in 26 games in half a season, but half a season later, they have not won any other honors except for the first place in the Champions League group. The top team in the league is someone else's. In the league, there is only one win against the top five teams in the league. It feels a bit sad to think about it.

"I just hope that in the second half of the season, there will be no more bad luck. If this continues, it will really become a joke."

When the winter break came and teammates looked back on the games of last season, there was no lack of such thoughts in the team. A team that has only lost three games in half a season. Unexpectedly, I can't guarantee that I am the top of the league. This year's Bundesliga competition makes the players feel quite pressured to review.

The same is true for Gao Shunyao. When the holidays come, he is also worried about some cases. He remembers the worst team ever, losing four games in one season, and as a result, the last four of the seasons were empty and none of the championships were won. Such an unfortunate Gao Shunyao doesn't want to do it. If he can't win the championship after winning so many games, he will die of depression.

Wolfsburg's goal is to win the championship. If you can't win the championship, you can only be regarded as a loser no matter how close you are to the championship. Look at the embarrassing situation of your team. The Wolfsburg players also had various discussions in private.

"Now I can only hope that in this winter, otherwise our strength will increase by leaps and bounds. Otherwise, our team will have strong signings... Otherwise, I will still find it difficult for the second half of the season."

In the chat, Mandzukic and Gao Shunyao said such words, and Gao Shunyao also understood the meaning of his words very clearly: It is naturally impossible to expect the players to suddenly become stronger in a winter, Manzuki The actual meaning of Qi, in fact, refers to the hope that his team can have some signings.

His request is not particularly excessive, because it seems now. Wolfsburg’s bench is indeed the weakest among the teams competing for the title. For the time being, the super local tyrants like Bayern will not mention it, even if compared to Dortmund, Wolfsburg has no advantage at all. If Wolfsburg can carry out some appropriate signings. Strengthen your bench lineup, no matter how you look at it is a matter of course.

In fact, this matter is not just Mandzukic's opinion, the media also thinks so when winter comes.

Half a season has passed, only one lose and one draw Bayern, is considered to be the league's most qualified team to compete for the championship. Under Bayern. Wolfsburg relied on two defeats and one draw, and Dortmund relied on the honor of last season's championship. Let the media dare not say that they will have no chance. These three teams are by far the most likely to compete for the championship in the Bundesliga this season. There is no doubt about this.

Excluding these three teams, Leverkusen and Schalke 04 are also notable strong teams this season. Although Leverkusen was sadly eliminated from the German Cup by Wolfsburg in the last game at the end of the first half of the season, their strength is still beyond doubt. In the league so far, they are still ahead of Dortmund. It can be said that this season, they are also powerful teams competing for the Champions League qualification.

There are as many as 18 teams in the Bundesliga, but in addition to the relegation teams, the most interesting ones are the strong teams in the front row. Especially during the transfer period, whether these teams will do anything to strengthen their teams is also very noticeable. During the winter break, the media analyzed the needs of each team on the one hand, and paid attention to their signings on the other hand.

The transfer in winter is not only a reinforcement activity to enhance one's own strength, but at the same time, it is also a battle of public opinion. If you can overwhelm the opponent in the winter transfer, it will also be good for the team's morale.

It's just that since the arrival of the winter break, what made Gao Shunyao quite depressed is that in this confrontation, Wolf Castle seemed to be the one who fell in the wind.

Bayern's transfer activities this winter can be said to be the most eye-catching: the entire Bundesliga originally thought that Bayern's first transfer this winter would definitely be the introduction of a center forward in order to play better in the second half of the season. However, Bayern's handwriting clearly exceeded people's expectations. They announced directly this winter that Guardiola will become Bayern's head coach next season.

The joining of the coach is supposed to be a trivial matter compared to the joining of the stars, not to mention that the coach who will only come next year is a future thing. But Guardiola is not an ordinary coach. As the world's leading champion coach, Guardiola's reputation is much higher than that of ordinary players. He is sure that coming to Bayern is enough to make a sensation in world football.

The experience in Barcelona is enough to make him a coach that the world's giants are in droves. Since Guardiola's resignation from Barcelona, ​​Chelsea, Manchester City, Bayern and many other giants have been eager for him. Everyone knows the achievements of Barcelona in the past few years. No team does not want its own team to have the same honor as Barcelona. It is possible to invite Guardiola, the helm of the Barcelona Dream III, to come to his team for his own sake. The team builds up a dream-like team, which is what many teams are looking forward to.

Guardiola’s choice has been noisy for a long time, and public opinion even has some signs of winning Guardiola’s dynasty team. This winter, Bayern announced that they had signed Guardiola as Bayern’s next season. The head coach immediately caused great repercussions throughout the league.

Although this possibility has been discussed for a long time, when it happened, it still shocked the Bundesliga and the whole world.

This move has ensured that Bayern is the most dazzling star in the transfer market this winter. Thinking of Pep Guardiola might move to Bayern next season and build this team that missed the three championships last year into a dynastic team, the media can't help their excitement.

Gao Shunyao also admitted that this has some impact on the players of Wolfsburg: at least when he heard the news, he was also worried. Guardiola used to coach Barcelona. If Guardiola comes, will Bayern become more stable and more terrifying? If that were the case, would it be more difficult to beat Bayern?

Although this is something that needs to be considered next season, Gao Shunyao is still a little depressed thinking about this.

It's just that he won't be depressed for too long, because if he really wants to be depressed this winter, there is more than this. Although there is big news about Guardiola's arrival at Bayern, this winter, the real biggest transfer is Dortmund.

After the arrival of this winter's transfer period, the only transfer of tens of millions was made by Dortmund-just this winter, they have already made a deal with the Donetsk Mine and introduced Mkhitaryan.

Shakhtar Donetsk had bad luck in the Champions League. They were eliminated by Wolfsburg and Arsenal and had to play in the Europa League. The defeat of the Champions League made Shakhtar Donetsk suffered heavy losses. They were originally a small league team and it was difficult to retain good players. The Champions League did not have to play, and naturally many players were poached. Dortmund was one of the teams that took the opportunity to start, they bought Mkhitaryan at a big price.

Dortmund’s shots are actually a bit unwise. Mkhitaryan has already played in the Champions League this season. He can no longer play for Dortmund in the Champions League. The money is a little bit worthless.

But this season, Dortmund’s league results are really bad. Their winter signings are also to solve the league’s problems, and because of Lewandowski’s non-renewal, they also need a large sum of signings for the team. Increase your morale ~www.ltnovel.com~ From this point of view, this signing is also very meaningful.

Wolfsburg played hard in the Champions League, but it turned out to be cheaper for Dortmund. This signing also made Gao Shunyao depressed.

"Looking at other people's transfers, and then at our transfers, I always feel that our biggest gap may not be the players, but the management."

Looking at two competitors, one has a world-class coach and the other has tens of millions of signings. In private, Gao Shunyao's move to the Wolfsburg transfer market is only to complain.

Because this winter, Wolfsburg is really not doing very well.

Compared with Bayern's big hand and Dortmund's clever tonic, the signings from Wolfsburg are slow and quiet. Although people have been analyzing before the arrival of winter, Wolfsburg estimates that in winter, it may need to introduce wingers and guards. It may be winter that Wolfsburg needs to further strengthen its lineup strength in order to maintain it in the second half of the season. Hope of winning...

The media predicted a lot, but no one thought that the first thing that Wolfsburg bought this winter would be a defensive midfielder. (To be continued)
