26 Last Stand (I)
ps: Rush to the list, ask for support!
In the stands of the Chemnitz Stadium, there sat two middle-aged Germans wearing caps, who were different from the average fan.
What makes them different is that they don't cheer when they see the team attacking, they sigh when they lose possession, like the Chemnitz fans around them, they just watch quietly the whole time.
As if the game wasn't going to attract much attention, their eyes were always on a number of Chemnitz players, especially the two midfielders, Michael Ballack and Sebastian Kyle.
"Outstanding, two young people with a lot of potential!" The man at the head nodded incessantly.
The man next to him seemed to be a scout of the club, and immediately smiled after hearing it: "I've been following them for a long time, that Michael Ballack is definitely an outstanding top star, Sebastian Kyle's skills and awareness are outstanding, and his characteristics are quite a bit of Summer's flavor!" ”
"Free man in the backfield?" The man at the head was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he nodded, "It does have a bit of taste." ”
"Ec-Eckhard, I'm not going to look away, Ballack and Kyle can definitely be the leaders of the new generation of players, even Clemens Fritz, Louis Hut, Tom Stark are also outstanding young rookies, Jan Kohler can be enough to establish himself in any Bundesliga team as long as he uses it well!"
Echard laughed, "It seems that you have a lot of targets!" ”
"I know you like to reuse and promote young players, and many of the players in the team are generally older, and if you can take all of these players under your account at once, you can lose a lot of headaches in metabolism." The scout chuckled appantly.
"Is it possible to do this side of Chemnitz?" Echard asked with concern.
"Of course, they are in debt, and they have no choice, but ......"
"Straight to the point!" Echard emphasized.
"The other players are okay to say, the current fame is not very big, but Ballack and Kyle are more difficult to do, these two players are very good, especially Ballack, since the Chinese head coach in Chemnitz came up, changed a series of tactics of the previous Hefner, completely stimulated the team's combat effectiveness, and Ballack's performance has also risen."
"There are a lot of people eyeing this player at the moment, you see!"
As the scout's hand looked over, at least five or six players could already be seen in the stands who were clearly not watching the game, but watching the players, and the guys who were intently taking notes, they were either scouts or club staff, and the purpose was clearly the same as theirs.
"Then be ruthless, and pack them all if you can!" Eckhard confidently decided.
"Chemnitz is said to be 600,000 marks in debt, and if we can afford to pay a higher price than that, it is not a big problem to pack these players, it is to convince Ballack and Kyle, I am afraid it will take a little effort, and I heard that Jan Kohler is also leaving Chemnitz!"
"You get to deal with this as soon as possible, especially Ballack and Kyle, the one called Clemens Fritz can play as a full-back or full-back, and it's a good fit for our team, and Luis Hut can barely be a substitute, so it's a good addition."
"Then I'll do it right away, the board ......"
"These players don't cost much, I can call the shots!" Echard immediately assured.
"That's fine!" The scout smiled and agreed.
Echard continued to watch the game, his attention always wandering over Ballack and others, ignoring Yang Cheng on the sidelines and Thomas who was about to play.
"By the way, Eckhard, how are you preparing for the German Cup final?" The scout asked with a casual smile.
"It's Karlsruhe, a tough team, but I'm still confident!" Echard laughed.
"That's great, if we can win the German Cup, then we can continue to compete in Europe next season, participate in the European Cup Winners' Cup, and as long as the team can survive relegation, then we can keep the board of directors shut!"
Eckhard was overjoyed to hear this, although his team has performed poorly in the Bundesliga this season, but it was due to the departure of two key players, and he is now looking for new players to fill the void.
But in the end, it is a traditional team in the Bundesliga, and he is still full of confidence in relegation!
It was at this point that Chemnitz took advantage of a throw-in for a substitution, with Thomas coming on for Claire.
This substitution immediately caused a slight commotion among the fans in the stands, and it was obvious that some fans who had watched the game for many years were also surprised by Yang Cheng's substitution.
'Replacing a centre-back with a striker? Is he crazy? The scout was taken aback.
Even Echard sneered, saying that a striker might be able to secure the attack, but the defensive danger would become greater, so that Chemnitz would be doomed if the opponent counter-attacked.
On the other hand, if you follow the previous tactics steadily, you may still have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
But Yang Cheng obviously won't be so conservative, he has always been proactive and aggressive, and he won't pin his hopes of winning on the possibility and possibility, he prefers to fight for it in his own way, even if it takes a risk for it!
…………
…………
As soon as Thomas came on the court, he made a gesture with his teammates, and the nearby players immediately leaned in.
"The boss has ordered, there is no one behind anymore, as long as we give Hertha Berlin a chance to counterattack, it is possible to fall behind again, so what should we do, the boss hopes that we will think clearly for ourselves!" With that, Thomas waved his hand to signal the players to disperse.
Everyone dispersed, but all of them were hovering Yang Cheng's words in their hearts, and looking back, Louis Hutter and Alacic were alone, guarding a fragile backline.
How?
Everyone understands when they think about it, because Yang Cheng said that if the front court and the midfield are desperately suppressing the opponent, the defensive pressure in the back field will become very easy.
Fight!
The eyes of the players changed from confusion to determination, and they all began to become hot, especially when they found in the eyes of their teammates exactly the same as themselves, and the fire of the Chemnitz players immediately ignited the stadium.
When the game resumed, the Chemnitz midfielders started a fierce scramble, and Kyle was like a free man at the back, if necessary, he could drop back to the back line, act as a central defender, and even take the initiative to take on the responsibility of directing the defense, and when attacking, he would step forward in the midfield, taking on some responsibility for grooming and organizing.
Ballack's position has dropped back a bit, but his range of movement has been much larger, and he has taken on some initiative to take on some strategy and organization, although his passing skills are not excellent, but he is very thoughtful, and every pass has a certain idea.
Fritz and the retreating Guccio have been working together for a short time with Ballack, and they have a bit of a tacit understanding, always reacting to his passes, which can then evolve into chances.
Every player in the midfield took the initiative to take responsibility for defense, coupled with Chemnitz's tactics of attacking instead of defending, as well as the surge in morale, Hertha Berlin was suppressed in his own half by Chemnitz for a while, unable to move.
This change surprised Echard in the stands, especially when he saw that Yang Cheng was still directing and adjusting the players to change tactics on the sidelines, he couldn't help but be a little impressed by Yang Cheng.
Hertha Berlin's defence was crumbling and shaky in front of the Chemnitz attack, and it looked like it was almost breathing.
