Chapter 100 The midfield needs to be strengthened

"Ah? Do you have something to tell me?" Zhou Yi was surprised.

In fact, he and Shahin don’t have much communication, and it can even be said to be very good.

In the team, Zhou Yi and Groskreuz have a good relationship and Gotze has a good relationship. After all, the two have played together in the youth team.

He is also friendly with most of his teammates.

The same is true for Shahin.

But not all friendly teammates are good friends.

The same is true for him and Shahin.

He has no conflict with Shahin, but he doesn't get too close.

If nothing happens, there will be almost no communication.

The only time was when Shahin performed poorly, Zhou Yi had to tell him his experience in a tactful way.

That time.

In addition, they usually say hello when they meet and rarely chat.

So he was surprised that Shahin would take the initiative to talk to him.

Shahin didn't say much nonsense, nodded and made it straight to the point.

"Actually, we both know that the so-called dual-core tactics still have primary and secondary ones, right?" he asked.

Zhou Yi nodded. Everyone knows this fact. It’s just that this tactic is called dual-core.

"It has always been my master's orders. But in the next game, I want to change it..." Shahin said, "I will assist you in the next game."

Zhou Yi looked at Shahin in surprise.

"But that's not how the coach arranged it..." he said in response.

"This doesn't matter." Shahin waved his hand. "Originally, we can do both of us. We can just discuss it ourselves. That's it. You are the core of the next game, and I'll help you."

After saying that, Shahin was about to get up and leave.

Unexpectedly, behind him, Zhou Yi suddenly asked: "Are you going to Madrid?"

Shahin stopped and looked back at Zhou Yi.

"Good luck, Nuri. That place is not easy to get along." Zhou Yi said to Shahin with a smile.

"Thank you, Zhou Yi."

After saying that, Shahin opened the door of the locker room and walked out.

Looking at the closed door, Zhou Yi murmured in a long voice as if he was singing a opera: "As soon as he entered a wealthy family - it's as deep as the sea~~~"

"We have already agreed with Spain, and we will announce this news at the end of the season." Zorke said to Klopp in his office.

"Well..." Klopp nodded, but his heart was a little sad.

Shahin was recalled from Feyenoord after he moved into Dortmund. At that time, the Turkish boy performed very well in Feyenoord. The Dutch club planned to buy out Shahin, and Shahin was also a little moved.

After all, although he debuted very early in Dortmund, he never had many opportunities and his performance was not stable. Due to his own problems, he felt that his career in Dortmund was not very bright.

It was Klopp who personally called Shahin to tell him how important it is in his new plan, which made Shahin give up the idea of ​​leaving Dortmund and return to Dortmund.

And under his training, he successfully became the core of the team.

Originally, in Klopp's own plan, Shahin, a young man, is the core of Dortmund's next ten years and will eventually become the team's captain.

He hopes that's the case.

But there are so many accidents in the football world that you cannot move on as you plan.

If Shahin had not been injured in the game against Hoffenheim, then Zhou Yi would not have been able to get a chance to play.

If Zhou Yi does not appear, then Klopp may not be able to discover the highlights of Zhou Yi until next season.

If Zhou Yi hadn't performed so well, he wouldn't have finally made up his mind to use Shahin to get a large amount of transfer fees.

And at the beginning, if he hadn't accidentally seen Zhou Yi's game outside the youth team's training ground, I'm afraid that all the stories after that would not have happened.

Shahin will continue to stay in Dortmund, as the core of the team, leading Dortmund to challenge Bayern Munich's hegemony in the Bundesliga.

Now, Shahin received a transfer fee of 16 million euros and then left to make room for Zhou Yi.

This is the team's renewal and metabolism. If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Yi had already existed, Klopp would never let Shahin go before he found a suitable replacement.

"How is Zhou Yi?" Zorke asked Klopp again.

But Klopp didn't understand. Do you need to consider how Zhou Yi should be considered when selling Shahin? He asked: "Hmm?"

"We will play in the Champions League next season, but with Zhou Yi's physical fitness, can he cope with the two-line battle?" Zorke asked.

"Shahin has sold all of them, are you just starting to consider this issue?" Klopp smiled and teased Zolk, and Klopp explained. "I have considered the physical fitness of Zhou Yi, but on the one hand, his physical fitness is gradually improving. On the other hand, we have other players to choose from in the midfield. After Shahin left, the one who benefits the most was not Zhou Yi, but Gotze, who will have more opportunities to play."

"Well, but we should continue to strengthen in the midfield," Zorke said.

"I agree with this." Klopp raised his hands.

"So what do you think of this person?" Zorke pushed a folder in front of Klopp.

Klopp picked it up and turned on the first page and found that it was the face of an Asian player.

"A Chinese player again?" he asked with a look up.

"No. Of course not. It's a Japanese player."

"Oh, the representative of the cheap and affordable price." Klopp teased Japan casually, then continued to turn down and saw the player's name.

"Kagawa...silk?" He tried hard to sing the strange Roman pinyin names of the Japanese.

"Shinji Kagawa." Zorke corrected Klopp's pronunciation and said, "We have been observing him in Japan for a long time. He is a very outstanding young player. In fact, six months ago, many European teams were interested in him, but he stayed in Japan because he wanted to participate in the South African World Cup. It was said that he was going to Real Madrid and Barcelona for trial training... but he seems to be more inclined to join us now."

When Zorke introduced Shinji Kagawa, Klopp was looking through his information, including scout reports and specific performance data.

After reading it, he asked Zolk: "How much does the transfer fee?"

"If we want it, I guess it will be done within 400,000 euros." Zorke penned out four fingers.

"It's really cheap..." Klopp grinned. The Japanese national team's international team, a young genius who may participate in the World Cup, is so cheap...

"Okay, I have no objection. I just hope he can be as good as it is made in Japan." Klopp spread his hand and said.

"I trust our scouts in Japan very much. You know, he has discovered another talented player before." Zorke smiled.

"Who?" Klopp asked.

"Zhouyi."

Klopp was stunned for a moment before he realized who the scout in Japan was. "Tim Kister?"

"Yes, it's him." Zorke nodded.

"Ah, I believe in his vision, too." Klopp planned to get up and say goodbye, but before leaving, he said to Zorke: "But I still have to correct it. Michelle Zhou Yi was not discovered by Tim, but me."

He pointed at himself and said proudly.

On May 8, 2010, in the afternoon of local time, at 9:30 pm Beijing time, the last round of the Bundesliga kicked off at the same time.

Dortmund challenged Freiburg away.

In this game, Zhou Yi and Shahin continued to start at the same time. However, slightly different from previous games, from the beginning of the game, Zhou Yi seemed very proactive and kept asking for the ball from his teammates.

In previous dual-core games, Zhou Yi was not active in this regard. He put himself in the role of a supporter and let Shahin control the rhythm of the game first. He would stand up when Shahin needed him to provide support.

There is still a big difference between these two types of game styles and attitudes, so it didn't take long for those who understand football to see it.

Marcel Leif was surprised: "Zhou Yi performed very positively today. As the secondary core among the dual cores, he did this a little bit... he was too arrogant, right?"

Duan Xin was also saying: "Zhou Yi seemed to have stolen Shahin's limelight and work. He went deep into the back line many times to ask for it. This is Shahin's territory..."

Tao Wei also felt strange: "In fact, Zhou Yi has always given people the feeling that he is a player with a strong overall perspective. He can sacrifice himself for the overall situation. If the coach assigned two core different responsibilities, he rarely crossed the line. But now... he frequently crossed the line, what would Klopp think?"

Before he finished speaking, the game was broadcast and cut to the close-up of Klopp.

Klopp in the camera frowned and sat on the chair and was talking to his assistant.

"Zhou Yi's performance today is very strange." Klopp tilted his head and said to Bouvage.

"I can see that he has retreated to the midfielder position several times, but this was not the case in the previous few games." Bouvac nodded.

"Why is this? And Shahin doesn't seem to care..." Klopp frowned. This was what puzzled him the most.

Zhou Yi robbed Shahin's job, but Shahin seemed to be careless.

This is completely different from his pre-match arrangement!

"I don't know either, but Jurgen, do you think this situation will harm the team's performance now?" Buvac asked.

"I don't know this. The game has just begun. I still need to observe it."

"Then let's observe it before talking about it." As the assistant coach in charge of tactics in the team's coaching staff, Buvac was not in a hurry to make a decision.

"Yes." Klopp nodded and stared at the court more attentively.
