"This person is Long Shute, and you should not be unfamiliar with his name."

Before the training class the next morning, Team Leader Cao smiled and introduced the newcomer to all teammates:

"He is also a member of the national team now, everyone applauds and welcomes you!"

Under the leadership of the leader, applause rang out.

In order to better control this national team, Gao Hongbo almost excluded all veterans over 30 in terms of personnel selection. The main players are mainly 85-87 years old, with only four or five including Dewey, Qu Bo, Zhao Peng, Yang Hao, Wang Song and four or five players before 85.

Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Li Weifeng, Zhao Junzhe and other captain-level players who were very popular before the game were all excluded. The external saying is that these players are already very good and do not need to be inspected. They will definitely be considered after the World Cup starts; and the Asian Cup is just to hone the recruits for the 2014 World Cup, and will not deliberately pursue results.

Such selection and employment of personnel will undoubtedly be criticized by public opinion since the date of the announcement of the roster. Everyone thinks that this national team is really amazing. There are more than two months left before the start of the Asian Cup, but they have even thought about the reasons for failure...

"Hello everyone, I'm very happy to join the national team."

Long Shute smiled and greeted these seniors who were not much older than him:

"Brother, I am young and ignorant. If there is any inappropriate thing, everyone will criticize and take care of it. Oh, I chose a place tonight to welcome you. Unless you have a date in Amsterdam, don't be absent."

After hearing his words, most people smiled.

"You guys are almost the same," Li Bing said with a smile, "The game will be coming the day after tomorrow. What should you do if you get everyone drunk?"

Long Shute laughed: "Then please ask Team Leader Wei, Supervisor Li, Supervisor Gao, and other coaches to conduct on-site supervision. However, in order to make everyone relax, you have to let you go to the single room."

Long Shute didn't care about the cost of having more than 60 people in the team (including players with nearly 30 people, coaching teams with more than 30 people, logistics personnel and some leaders who traveled with public funds) that had exceeded his salary for a week.

These people are basically the main members who will fight with him in the national team in the next few years. As the host, he will not even say hello to everyone for a meal. This is also a pity for the Northeastern tradition of being generous and hospitality.

Head coach Gao Hongbo watched the players laugh and laugh for a long time, and finally coughed: "Okay, it's a good thing to have newcomers join, but now is training time, don't delay the main business."

Assistant coach Fu Bo and Ou Chuyang quickly put away their smiles and directed the team members to start warming up with a loud voice.

The first day of training was all restorative training, and the intensity was very small.

After all, the intense and intense Chinese Super League just ended on November 4. These teammates only had ten days off and took a plane across Asia and half of Europe without stopping, and were in a state of exhaustion. Many people were still in a jet lag until now.

Considering that the Asian Cup in January was held in Qatar, the Gulf region, Long Shute suggested to the team leader Cao and the head coach that the next preparation site would be placed in the Netherlands. Ajax and the second team or youth training teams of the Eredivisie club are happy to act as their warm-up match opponents, of course, the premise is to pay a certain amount of appearance fee.

After a simple request for instructions, the matter was decided.

Anyway, with the current reputation of the Chinese national football team, it is difficult to find a suitable training base in China, and you can't earn tickets for warm-up matches. You have to ask your grandpa to coordinate the relationship between all parties, and you have to see which city's sports venues do not hold a concert in order to barely play a game...

From mid-November to the end of December, the national team happily stayed in Amsterdam in the past month and a half.

You said the cost is too expensive?

Sorry, the Chinese Football Association lacks everything, but it is really never short of money. Otherwise, why are there so many overseas training sessions every year?

And... do you think you don't spend money in the country?

Domestic invoices are easier to issue!

After the training began, Long Shute understood the characteristics of this national team more intuitively.

He is surrounded by strong defensive players such as Zhao Xuri, Zhang Linpeng, Feng Xiaoting, etc., who are strong, physically and have strong styles, as well as Yu Hai, Yu Han, super speed assaulters, Deng Zhuoxiang and Hao Junmin's passing and control skills are also remarkable. Although Gao Lin's shooting skills are not good, no one can replace the role of a bridgehead in the frontcourt. In addition, there are two major kung fu masters, Dai Lin and Tan Wangsong, who are on the bench, and the bench becomes intimidating.

But the weaknesses of these main players are much more obvious than they are:

The defensive generals generally have weak defense awareness, and there are a large number of attacks in defense, or two or three people have short-circuited their brains at the same time, watching their opponents drive in without any defense.

The fast horse on the wing will only rush forward in a straight line. Once he is allowed to cut in, he will definitely lose the ball; he will never find his teammate when the cross is made, and it is all scarred glass.

The core of the organization is not only slow and slow, but also falls down as soon as you touch it. He has the skills under his feet but can't hold the ball at all, and his ability to hold the ball is almost zero. Some people even tremble their legs after only sixty minutes of kicking.

As for the main striker, it seems that there is no need to hack him specifically.

The most important point is that they seem to be thinking about what to do if they fail. No matter what opponent they face, they seem to be ready to say "We have tried our best."

To conquer the world with such a group of teammates, Long Shute once again felt how huge the pressure on his shoulders was...

-

"drop!"

Assistant coach Fu Bo blew his whistle again and then announced loudly:

"The goal is valid, 3-1, so far."

Gao Hongbo, who was standing on the sidelines, shook his head slightly.

This 30-minute team match was specially arranged by him.

The core of one side is his strong promotion and serving as the core of the national team for more than a year, while the core of the other side is Long Shute, who just joined the team.

Judging from the configuration of the lineup between the two sides, his intention is obvious: he hopes that everyone can find their own position through this confrontation.

Everyone has a little selfishness. Gao Hongbo still hopes that Deng Zhuoxiang, whom he supports, can continue to take the core role. As for Long Shute, he may start from the position of the midfielder and gradually adapt to the team's playing style.

But the ending shattered his selfishness instantly!

He was obviously a midfielder, but Long Shute dominated the game with two goals and one indirect assist.

On the other hand, Deng Zhuoxiang, who served as the front midfielder, was simply unable to move forward under Long Shute's defense. Not to mention organizing the offense, he didn't even have the chance to connect the ball!

For a full 30 minutes, as the core of the organization, he only had 6 touches!

Hold the ball on your back?

His turn was too slow, and even his body didn't turn, Long Shute stabbed the ball from the diagonally behind.

Have forward passes in advance?

Sorry, can you compare to the most famous sprinter in the Eredivisie?

After retreating, carry the ball and advance?

Sorry, you are facing a guy who can defend Ronaldo, Kaka, and Ibrahimovic alone. If you are confident that you can fight alone, please come on.

A fake fall in the breakthrough to cheat a free kick?

Sorry, Long Shute has a sparring partner named Luis Suarez. If you are confident that the waves of diving are higher than him, please perform your performance.

The final result is that unless it is the simplest face-to-face short pass, he can't escape Long Shute's defensive area at all!

Even with a short pass, his ball protection was only two seconds long. As long as Long Shute used his strong body to gently push and rub, he immediately gave in his possession.

The most infuriating thing is... Long Shute, who is more and more experienced in defense, will only make his center of gravity slightly deviate, but it will not be enough to make him fall to the ground!

Even if you want to fake a fall, it's too late!

Looking at his depressed disciple, Gao Hongbo shook his head, and a thought came out of his heart.
Chapter completed!
