The upcoming schedule is indeed very difficult for Hamburg.

After a relatively easy game against newly promoted Braunschweig at home on August 31, it was an international match day.

And when players with national team competition duties drag their tired bodies back to the team, they will be greeted by a terrifying three weeks in a row.

The away game against Dortmund on September 15th, the away game against AC Milan on September 18th, and the home game against Werder Bremen on September 21st!

This is not over yet.

The next four days will be the second round of the German Cup on September 25, then the sixth round of the Bundesliga against Frankfurt on September 29, and the Champions League home game against Barcelona on October 3.

Finally, after the away game against Nuremberg on October 6, this long series of continuous devilish schedules came to an end.

This is a problem that Hamburg did not face at all last season, and it is a problem that many teams will face when fighting on the third line.

But what makes everyone in Hamburg feel reassured is that Pan Yi seems to have been prepared for this.

He asked Pintus to plan a series of training plans early based on this intensive schedule, which also included intervals for recovery, relaxation and rest for the players.

The tactical training and ability training proposed by Nagelsmann and Inzaghi will also be based on this set of plans to prevent players from being too tired.

During this period of training, Pan Yi will also require various modern instruments to keep up, pay close attention to the physical condition of all players, and use scientific data to determine whether a player can play and for how long.<

/p>

In short, all means are used to ensure that the team can exert its maximum combat effectiveness while ensuring the physical condition of the players and avoiding injuries.

Of course, if we must prioritize these games, Pan Yi would still pay more attention to the Champions League, especially the first round match against Milan.

This is a game against his former club, and it is also Pan Yi's first European game in Hamburg. Of course, he hopes the team can perform well.

Therefore, he hopes that his team can go to the San Siro Stadium with the best lineup and state to win this game.

Pan Yi also has this confidence.

He knows that Milan has been going downhill in the past two years.

After Pan Yi left, Allegri has been unable to come up with any clever tactics, and he has not been able to make good use of the young players Pan Yi bought, otherwise he would not have let Pan Yi take away so many at "low prices"

Already.

Allegri is superstitious about his "dark and hard" style of play, which seemed to be able to sustain it last season, but after severe blood loss this season, it feels like his true colors have been revealed.

The new season of Serie A started later than the Bundesliga. Serie A only played one game after three rounds of the Bundesliga.

But in this first round of games, AC Milan lost to underdog Verona 1:2 in an away game.

Allegri eliminated the "little black" combination of Mane, Balotelli and Niang in the game, and Mane scored a goal in the 14th minute to take the lead.

But Milan's defense could not withstand Verona's Italian veteran Toni. He kicked with his head and kicked continuously in the 30th and 53rd minutes to take the lead.

There is another young player in the Verona team who performed well, and that is Jorginho.

He led the Verona midfield to gain the upper hand in the competition with Milan's dark and hard midfield, which was also a prerequisite for Verona to ultimately win.

In fact, it’s okay to lose, but it’s really unreasonable that a giant like Milan can’t even control the ball in front of Verona.

This bad start also increased the pressure on Allegri, and the fans and the media once again expressed their voices to dismiss him.

What makes Allegri even more embarrassed is that everyone said they wanted Pan Yi to come back and missed Pan Yi's time in Milan. They also said that Allegri's triple crown in Milan was actually thanks to Pan Yi.

So for Allegri, this Champions League group match is also an opportunity for him to prove himself again.

He wants to defeat Hamburg and Pan Yi at the San Siro Stadium to prove that he is really better than Pan Yi!

Of course Pan Yi will not let such a thing happen.

He also wanted to use direct dialogue on the court to tell Allegri, look what kind of ruin you have ruined the Milan that I carefully cultivated!

If you don’t understand, you can call me and ask me. But I don’t want to lose face, so I hold on.

So, the best way to "communicate" at this time is to teach Alaigri a lesson during the game.

Only in this way can he know how the real 433 kicks!

……

On August 31, in the fourth round of the Bundesliga, Hamburg faced Braunschweig at home.

Hamburg won this game easily.

Since the international match will begin after the game, Pan Yi also sent most of the main players in this game and took control of the game.

In the 9th minute, Carvajal made a pass from the right. The Braunschweig defender headed the ball to clear the ball. After the ball bounced to the ground, De Bruyne outside the penalty area met the ball and fired a beautiful right-footed volley. The ball was like a cannonball.

Flying towards the upper right corner of the goal, the opponent's goalkeeper flew to save, but it was of no avail, 1:0!

In the 13th minute, De Bruyne made a scalpel-like through ball in his own half. The ball penetrated Braunschweig's defense. Vardy rushed out quickly, successfully countered offside, and dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Facing the goalkeeper

, he calmly pushed the shot with his right foot and scored, 2:0!

In the 66th minute, Wu Lei passed the ball in an inverted triangle from the left. Carvajal received the ball from the other side and entered the penalty area. He shot the far corner with his right foot. The ball hit the left post and bounced into the net, 3:0.

!

In the 73rd minute, De Bruyne made a precise pass in front of the penalty area. Salah made a pass from the right. Vardy volleyed with his right foot near the penalty spot and the ball went straight into the net. Vardy scored twice, 4:0!<

/p>

Hamburg finally defeated the newly promoted Braunschweig with four goals and won the first four consecutive league victories.

However, other opponents in this round of competition overturned one after another.

Except for Dortmund, who narrowly defeated Frankfurt 2:1 and maintained a complete victory like Hamburg, there is no third team with a complete victory.

Mainz lost 1:4 to Hannover 96 in an away game, while Leverkusen lost 0:2 to Schalke 04.

The most surprising thing is Bayern Munich.

They encountered stubborn resistance from Freiburg in the away game, and in the end the two sides shook hands with each other 1:1.

As a result, after four rounds, Hamburg still ranked first in the standings with 12 points and a goal difference, and Dortmund ranked second.

Then there are Bayern Munich with 10 points, Bayer Leverkusen with 9 points, Hannover 96, and Mainz.

Then the league will temporarily take a two-week break and enter the national team match day.

Compared with last season, this season in Hamburg, almost everyone ran out on the national match day.

The first-team players are basically all national players from various countries!

Even if they are not national players, they will be recruited by youth teams of all ages in various countries. For example, Jonathan Tower is still the captain of the youth team.

Although Rudiger is only 20 years old, he performed well in Hamburg and was favored by Loew, who allowed him to join the adult national team for inspection.

——Of course, in fact, as long as the players of the German national team are recommended by Pan Yi to Loew, they basically do not need to be inspected.

Who makes Loew be regarded as Pan Yi's "little fanboy" now?

So in the end, those who stayed in the training center on the national match day were the substitute goalkeepers Neuenhaus and Drobny who played there by themselves. At most, Dickmeier and Westermann were playing with them. They didn't even play normally.

Training is not possible.

So Pan Yi simply let them take a break.

As soon as this difficult two weeks was over, Pan Yi immediately asked the team's doctors, physical coaches, rehabilitation therapists, etc. to examine and perform physical therapy on the returning players as soon as possible, so that they could get rid of fatigue as soon as possible and return to the team.

Coming in for training.

After all, Hamburg is about to face a battle with Dortmund in the Bundesliga!

This is a direct confrontation between two teams that both have four consecutive victories.

Fortunately, this national team match day did not bring too many FIFA viruses to Hamburg, that is, no one was injured.

It's just that some players have played a full game or are tired from traveling, so they are more tired than other players.

Therefore, when the game against Dortmund came, Pan Yi also made a choice based on the current situation and put together a competitive lineup.

After all, Hamburg is full of talents now!

Forwards: Vardy, Salah, Lin Zhijian.

Midfielder: De Bruyne, Calhanoglu, Kante.

Defenders: Janssen, Rudiger, Westermann, Carvajal.

Goalkeeper: Navas.

This lineup mainly removes the international players from South America and Asia. They run far and play for a long time, and they are indeed very tired.

Except for goalkeeper Navas, there is generally no need to worry about the physical condition of goalkeepers anyway.

Among the European internationals, Van Dijk has become the main force of the Dutch national team. He also played two games on the international match day, so he was allowed to rest first. The same is true for Scotland's Robertson.

Players like Vardy, Kante, De Bruyne, and Carvajal are not yet able to play the main role in the national team, and their playing time is relatively short, so their recovery conditions are also better.

Just because De Bruyne and Calhanoglu were allowed to play at the same time, Pan Yi asked Kanter to play in the deep midfielder position, and let De Bruyne and Calhanoglu occupy the two sides in front of Kanter.

Provide support.

This midfield combination will be less cunning, but under the protection of a ball-grabbing machine like Kante, it can also bring out the characteristics of De Bruyne and Calhanoglu who are good at passing the ball and have threatening long-range shots.

Can function as a dual core.
