Chapter 314: A Surprise Starter (4/40)

Rongguang looked at the visitor in a daze, completely forgetting about training.

The visitor also noticed his eyes and asked coldly, "What are you doing?" ”

"Why are you here?" Glory asked.

"Why can't I come?" Someone asked rhetorically.

"I've never seen you come to practice......"

"That doesn't mean I won't practice, how long have you been in Werder Bremen?" The visitor snorted.

Rongguang just watched blankly as he began to warm up on the training ground.

His brain hadn't responded yet.

Elton, who has always been lazy in training, why would he practice more for himself after training?

※※※

Glory watched for a while and then resumed his training, and at this time Elton also finished a simple warm-up.

He noticed Glory's strange movements on the training ground.

In front of him were two cone-shaped sign barrels, but the two cones were very close together, not at all like the confrontation of the two defenders, because ...... It's hard to get between these two conical barrels without touching either of them.

Elton knows that the glorious croquettes are very skillful, but looking at the placement of this marker, it doesn't look like he wants to practice croquettes.

Even if you lose fried croquettes, you can't get through it......

So what exactly is he going to do?

Elton became interested for a while, so he simply stopped practicing and stood in the distance to watch.

He saw Glory take the ball to the marker, and then flick the ball to the right of the ball, which looked like it was going to break through from the right.

This is a very simple passing move, Elton doesn't know what to do with this glory, is he still not good at this pass?

And it's just to change direction, do you need to place a corner cone next to each other?

But at this moment, Elton saw that the football that had been removed to the right by Glory suddenly changed direction and flew to the left!

It's like hitting an invisible wall in the air!

Elton's eyes widened!

Immediately following the glory, he also stopped and changed direction, originally going to the right, but now he is also following the football to the left.

However, the others rushed over, but the ball hit the corner cone, knocked the corner cone to the ground, and bounced to other places.

"Ahhhh

Seeing the failure, Glory raised his head and shouted, frustrated.

He didn't care that Elton was on the same training ground.

After he finished yelling, Elton's voice rang out, with some confusion: "'Rubber band'?" ”

Glory looked back and remembered that Elton was still there.

"Do you know the Tao too?" He was surprised.

Seeing him look so surprised, Elton couldn't help but want to roll his eyes: "What's wrong with this?" Are you practicing this? ”

Rongguang nodded: "Yes." ”

"And what do these two pyramids do?" Elton asked again.

"Someone who defended me."

"Are there any defenders who are so close?"

"Oh, no...... It's a person's two legs. Rong Guang explained.

"What?"

Elton froze.

He looked at the distance between the two pyramids, if it was a man's two legs...... Then these two legs are still too tight.

He walked around behind the pyramid and stood his legs at the distance of the pyramid. I found myself basically keeping my upper body upright.

Then he snorted: "Which defender will defend you in this stance?" Who doesn't lower their center of gravity, spread their legs apart, and try to increase the defensive area? It's like a lamp pole, that's too good, right? ”

With that, Elton scooped up the soccer ball and pulled it right away from the two markers.

When Rongguang saw his action, he knew that he had misunderstood.

"No, not to break through from the side, but ...... Wear the crotch. He said. The soccer ball drills between the legs. ”

He pointed to the place between the two pyramids.

Elton followed and looked at the distance in between, falling silent.

This distance seems to be just enough for the ball to pass through the inside, and if you kick it a little too far, it will hit the corner cone, and if you kick it too far, it will fly out of the corner cone.

Glory must let the football fly through the middle...... That's not a lot of difficulty!

He used to think that Glory's special training was simply a child's trick, and it was extremely simple.

I didn't expect him to be wrong......

This special training is not simple at all......

"It's boring!" He snorted, turned and walked away, going to do his own training.

And Rongguang grimaced at him behind his back, ignored him, and continued his own training.

It's like that, you occupy half of the training ground, and I occupy the other half of the training ground, working each other.

※※※

The next day, the morning training session was a regular intra-team game.

It is divided into the main group and the substitute group. The yellow vests in this game are almost all players who are sure to start the game.

When the group came out, everyone was surprised to find that Elton was wearing a yellow vest that symbolized the status of the main force!

"Huh?" Kolstadzic pointed strangely at his vest, trying to say something but not for a while.

"What?" Elton asked rhetorically with a straight face.

"That...... You...... Belch...... No...... What's going on? Kolstadzic was incoherent for a long time, and finally he finished speaking.

"As you can see, Maladen. I'll start the next game. Elton tugged at the yellow vest with his hand.

Although he didn't take his training seriously before, that doesn't mean he doesn't want to play and start.

He dreamed of getting back into the starting lineup.

He's actually happy to be back in the starting line-up, but what...... He was reluctant to show it in front of his teammates.

Rongguang looked at Elton, who was wearing the same yellow vest as himself, and suddenly thought of his training yesterday.

He suddenly understood something......

※※※

Not only Elton, but Borowski, Schulz, and Rolfes all wore the yellow vests that represented the starters.

Schaff was quick to answer the doubts of the other players: "Considering our fitness problems, I will only use conditional rotation for the next games, and I will give more players the opportunity to play. It's a race that requires all of us to give it our all, and the race is just getting started! The game will not be over until the last second of the last round of the round, and there must be no slackness until then. Guys, it's up to you to win this league title or not! ”

Everyone knew that each of them had a chance to play in the next game, and even though it was the end of the league at this time, they were still proud and proud to be part of this fierce title race.

And excited about it, willing to dedicate all his strength.

Glory once again set his sights on Elton.

Elton looked calm, and there was even some of that cynical look on his face, just like he used to.

※※※

Ahead of the game against Hannover, Werder Bremen's starting line-up was made public, and everyone saw that unlike the starting line-up in the previous game against Eintracht Frankfurt, Werder Bremen had changed a lot this time.

“…… Their lineup has as many as four tweaks. Yes, that's right, Schaaf rotated the starting lineup for this game! A number of key players, including Miku, the core of the playmaker, did not start......"

“…… Schaaf actually adopted a rotation! This is really a big surprise to everyone. But in fact, this is not the most surprising, the most surprising is ...... Elton is in the starting lineup! What's going on? Everyone was stunned, okay? Isn't Elton and Schaaf's relationship strained? Why did Scharf send Elton on the field at the most critical moment? Isn't he worried about Elton's form and attitude? ”

Before the game, the news media were drawn to Schaaf's starting line-up.

The Schaaf rotation took them by surprise and Elton's starter took them by surprise.

It's like what those on-site reporters and hosts said.

No one could have imagined that Elton would regain the chance to start in the league.

His appearance even made everyone forget that Schaaf was actually rotated.

Now everyone is starting to talk about whether the starting of Elton is a clever move or a failure.

"How did Elton arrange the relationship with Rong when he played? Both are strikers and both are fast...... Who is it dominated by? If Eiki is the main thing, what will Elton do? He was already lacking in motivation...... If Elton is the main player, what will Rong think? ”

"I've always thought that Schaaf was right to refrigerate Elton, because with Rong, there really isn't a need for another Elton with similar characteristics. Refrigeration would have made his personal relationship with Elton worse, but it would have been good for the team. But now I don't see that Scharf and Elton seem to shake hands? But I'm starting to worry about Werder Bremen's league title prospects......"

"Schaff may have been surprised that this arrangement would definitely lead his opponent, and he succeeded. Hannover will definitely be surprised by this starter, but the final result is hard to say, maybe it was an accident that Werder Bremen self-destructed their advantage, right? ”

"Maybe Schaaf didn't take Hanover seriously? So there were a lot of substitutions in this game. He wants to give his main players a rest. However, it is not a good thing to underestimate the enemy. Don't look at Hannover now in 11th place, the ranking looks safe, but in fact they also need to be relegated, 28 league games, they have 32 points, they are only four points away from the bottom three Hertha Berlin. There are six rounds left in the league and anything can happen......"

……

When the team's bus arrived at the stadium, a reporter ran to Elton and asked: "Do you have the confidence to help the team win again?" Can you guarantee that you will be focused and motivated at all times during the game? ”

Elton glanced at the reporter with his nostrils, then walked straight over without saying a word.

After getting out of the car, Schaaf was surrounded by reporters.

"What exactly was the reason for starting Elton?"

"Aren't you worried about Elton's lack of fighting spirit when he comes on?"

"Put Elton on at such a critical time...... Is it too risky?

In response to these questions, Schaaf also prevaricates with "I'm sorry, now is not the time to talk about this".

In fact, he didn't know if it was too risky to let Elton start......

But is there anything he can do now other than trust Elton?

There are times when a manager is really not as good as people think, as if he can do anything.

Their tactics need to be executed by the players, and the state of the players is not 100% mastered by them, and there will always be some surprises.
