712 Meeting the Crazy Team(1/2)
() "Su, I won't hide it from you. If you don't agree to our request in our Dortmund plan, we will contact coach Klopp."
This was already after the second round of the German Cup.
Just three days after the fifth round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund faced the second round of the German Cup.
Dortmund vs. Hertha Berlin.
Hertha Berlin are performing particularly well this season.
Hertha Berlin, which only finished tenth in the Bundesliga last season, has been in great shape since the start of this season.
In the first five rounds, they only lost to Bayern Munich.
In the first five rounds, Hertha Berlin had three wins, one draw and one loss, and the points reached ten points. It was much better than Dortmund's four draws and one loss in the five rounds.
A full six points more...
Hertha Berlin is currently ranked fifth in the Bundesliga, while Dortmund is ranked 12th in the Bundesliga.
Hertha Berlin's head coach is ambitious.
He wants to lead Hertha Berlin into the Europa League.
He hopes to become the coach who leaves his mark on Hertha Berlin's history.
Especially after Hertha Berlin performed well in the league this season, he has this idea more and more.
Therefore, he looked down upon the German Cup games. Of course, it was also related to the fact that there was another Bundesliga game three days later.
Dortmund and Hertha Berlin both adopted semi-main lineups.
Even Hertha Berlin only had two main players on the field.
Su Yuncai took half of the main force.
It is a combination of most of the main defense line and a substitute offensive line. On the defense line, Su Yun used the young Schmelzer, Hummels, Williams, and Daniel Gordon lineup.
Su Yun placed the versatile defensive back Daniel Gordon at the right back position.
In the middle, Kyle rested. Klinger came on to partner with Hajnauer. Among the main players in the frontcourt, Su Yun chose one person.
Mata.
Mata needs exercise.
Because he has only played in the Spanish second division, this season is Mata's first time playing in the top league. And Mata's physical strength is very good for the current Dortmund team.
Mata's physical strength is very good.
It's just one game in three days. Mata's physical strength doesn't seem to be a big problem.
confusion.
The game was very chaotic.
Although Su Yun had heard of this game before, this was the first time he played like this.
The German team is strictly a track and field team.
run.
Just run forward.
Hertha Berlin's players play very simply. Just take the ball and run forward.
Su Yun was scared at first.
What is this and what.
Germany's style of play is somewhat different from England's long-passing style of play. They are like a track and field team, running from forward to wing to midfield.
Their movement isn't very smart.
It's not the kind of running that intersperses, it's not the kind of running that Su Yun is pursuing to tear apart the opponent's defense.
Instead, it runs straight up and down.
The ball is flying around in the air.
It's like kicking the ball forward, and then people run. Wherever the ball goes, people go.
That's the feeling.
But this kind of ball is most suitable for Dortmund's defense. Williams and Hummels like this kind of defense best.
Schmelzer made his first start for Dortmund and is very suitable for this style of play. Su Yun also saw his biggest strengths.
Running tirelessly on the wing.
Very strong.
It was like seeing Solin when he was coaching at Chelsea.
Of course, due to experience, Schmelzer's positional sense is very poor. He lost his position several times.
Several times Hertha Berlin passed the ball without any valuable content and hit him directly behind him. Schmelzer completely failed to understand that defense is a system. It was Hummels who made up the position several times and resolved the crisis.
Su Yun is most satisfied with Hummels' development this season.
Twenty years old.
He is becoming more and more general-like.
With Williams behind him to fill in for him, Hummels can fully utilize his ability to attack. With Williams, Hummels is not afraid of anything at all.
courage.
Sometimes it's a must-have for a defender.
Hummels has this kind of courage because there is Williams behind him. In fact, Hummels is still afraid of Williams, but he trusts Williams very much.
With confidence in his mind, he can perform more and more freely.
The young player is becoming more and more comfortable, which shows that he is becoming more and more general-like.
Letting Williams be the central defender, Su Yun now thinks this is the best choice. Because he drives Hummels next to him.
In the end, Dortmund won the game relying on the individual abilities of their offensive players.
In the second half, Su Yun replaced Dede on the left wing. Instead of replacing the left back, he asked Dede to play as the left midfielder. During the game, Dede received a pass from Hajnauer and passed the ball after breaking through to the baseline.
, allowing Klinger to score the only goal in the game with a header.
Dortmund defeated Hertha Berlin 1-0 and entered the German Cup quarterfinals.
And today is the morning after the second round of the German Cup.
Su Yun and Zorc were walking together again.
Anyway, this is already the morning homework for the two of them.
Zorc mentioned the Klopp who had a verbal spat with Su Yun.
Seeing that Su Yun didn't know much about Klopp, Zorc mentioned some things about Klopp. He also made no secret of Dortmund's original thoughts.
"Is this one very strong?"
Hearing that Dortmund was considering Klopp, Su Yun asked Zorc.
Su Yun has been in contact with Watzke and Zorc.
These two are very powerful.
Su Yun thinks so. After the turmoil in Dortmund these years, they began to know how to reflect and then carry out ten-year plans. Su Yun admired this very much.
Since they have considered Klopp, this coach should have a hand.
But Su Yun had never heard of Kolopp before.
"His results in coaching Mainz were good. It's just that the Mainz club was too weak to fully display his talents. Even Bayern considered coach Klopp. But he had no results, so Bayern chose Klin.
Sman.”
Su Yun nodded.
In fact, Su Yun understood. Although Zorc said that Bayern chose Klinsmann because Klopp had no results. Isn't that why Dortmund didn't choose him?
Dortmund wants to rebuild. I think Klopp is good, but there are some risks.
I feel that a well-known and accomplished coach like Su Yun is safer.
"I'm really looking forward to playing against coach Klopp one day."
Zorc nodded.
"Su, you have been coaching in the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A. You should have limited knowledge of our Bundesliga. Although Klopp has no outstanding results, he has always been well-known within our German football circles, and everyone still recognizes him.
His strength. Maybe next season, or next season, he will leave Mainz to coach other Bundesliga teams."
Su Yun shrugged.
I hope that I will have the opportunity to play with a young coach like Klopp in the future. It is also a good thing.
It's just a temporary thought.
To be continued...
