Bastian Schweinsteiger diary:

November 6, 2002, Wednesday, light rain

My head hurts a lot today and the coach won’t let me rest. ΔΩ pen quge

My head hurt because I bumped into Zhuo Yang in mid-air during training. I pretended it didn't hurt because I was afraid of being embarrassed if I rubbed it.

Zhuoyang rubbed his head vigorously, and the coach said that if it hurts, go and rest for a while.

I said that my head hurt too, but I was too embarrassed to rub it just now. Could you please take a rest?

The coach ignored me.

Resentment.

November 7, 2002, Thursday, cloudy day. Beginning of winter

Zhuo Yang said the beginning of winter. I asked him what he meant.

Half an hour later, Zhuo Yang said that even a pig should understand. But I didn’t understand.

Why is there anything happening with pigs?

When we had dinner together at the restaurant at noon, I still didn’t understand.

Zhuo Yang poured me a lot of drinks. I drank so much that I didn't want to drink any more. Zhuo Yang poured it for me, and Pell said not to waste it.

I said I was very strong, and the coach said you go run three hundred laps and I will count them for you.

I said I couldn't stand it anymore.

Resentment.

Today is the match day of the eleventh round of the regional league. Madiborg Youth Team faced Barnstorff at home.

According to the old rules, the team gathered at noon, had lunch together at the base, and after a break, did some simple training. When the time was almost up, the team entered the Victor Football Stadium.

Barnstorf is a strong team in the regional league. They were ranked in the standings before the ninth round. They only fell to second place after losing to Algermison in the ninth round.

Madiburg Youth Team currently ranks first with 24 points with 7 wins, 3 draws, and Barnstorff is closely followed with 23 points with 7 wins, 2 draws, and one loss. This is a game worth six points.

Klopp attaches great importance to this game and has made full preparations. Klopp knows that Barnstorff has the strength, but it is not as good as the young Madiburg youth he has trained and handled, so winning is not a big problem.

Zhuoyang and Mertesacker also felt that Barnstorff would cause some trouble and the game would be difficult, but they were confident of winning this game.

Because the game was so crucial, Chairman Angus Mullen also came to the scene, accompanied of course by his good friend Professor Carl Norman.

"Damn it, I think if my youth team goes to play in the C-League, it won't be worse than it is now." Mullen said with a stomach full of roundworms.

Yesterday, in the twelfth round of the C-League, the Madibao first team lost again. Currently, they have 4 draws and 8 losses in 12 games. They are still 6 points away from the second to last place and are heading straight to the Northern League.

"I think so. These kids in the youth team have great potential." Professor Norman sympathized with his old friend. "Klopp did a good job and is a very good coach."

"That damn old stubborn, I asked him to pay more attention to the youth team and remind him that there are a few good prospects in it." Chairman Mullen gritted his teeth angrily. "He actually said that they are a bunch of kids who are arrogant and will be intimidated when they come to the C-level.

Gotta pee his pants. Damn Stanley!”

"Old man, it's time to think about the long term for the team. Stanley Fox is out of date and will only lead your team to the abyss."

"Alas -" Chairman Mullen sighed: "Stanley is also an old friend. He used to be able to catch up in the regional league. I wonder if there will be a miracle this year."

Professor Norman helped with the analysis: "It's hard to say. The C-League is not a regional league, and the competition is much more intense. Your team is in its third year in C-League, and there is no improvement at all. You have invested a lot of money into it.

, you definitely don’t want to avoid relegation every year, right?”

In order to gain a foothold in the third division, Mullen has invested nearly 20 million euros in the past two years. This huge amount of money is still a considerable amount even in the German Bundesliga. But the Madiburg team has been losing every year.

They had to wait until the very end to avoid relegation, which tested Chairman Mullen's overwhelmed heart.

This year he invested another seven to eight million euros, but so far he has not seen any money. Angus Mullen’s money did not come from strong winds, and so much money made him feel very painful, but

Mullen gritted his teeth for the sake of Madiburg Club, which caused him to have problems with the company's cash flow, seriously affecting his business.

The reason why Angus Mullen invested so much is to let the team rush to the second league. The business development of the second league is completely different from that of the third league. If Madibao reaches the second league, Hannover City

With the geographical advantage, and the team's business development and marketing activities, with stable income, it is not a dream for the club to stabilize in the second division and be responsible for its own profits and losses.

Yes, Madiburg Club is very small, and the stadium is also very small. But precisely because of its small size, the expenses required are relatively economical. Moreover, although the club is small, Hannover is a big city. Relying on the benefits of this big city,

It is enough to support this small club of its own. The prerequisite is that the team must rush to the second level. Therefore, Madibao must not stay in the third level for a long time, let alone drop back to a lower level. Otherwise, everything will have to be started all over again.

, the previous investment was thrown away in vain. Angus Mullen no longer wants to endure the suffering of the team in the lower leagues, and has to continue to invest repeatedly. If this happens, he would rather sell

The club has since moved away from football.

Thinking of this, Mullen's flesh aches even more. This is the team he built with his own hands, and there is also the Victor Stadium named after his father. There is no saying that you can give up if you give up. But if you don't do this, your business will suffer.

What to do? Without money, everything is just a cloud.

"I still need to talk to Stanley again to see if I can give him a little more time." Chairman Mullen rubbed his temples helplessly.

While Mullen was suffering from a severe headache, Rysakova and Mark were also chatting in the stands.

"Zhuo has been very busy recently. I can only make phone calls every day. If I want to see him, I have to make an appointment." Raisa felt a little resentful.

"That's right, except for classes, I hardly see his people. Playing football is very hard, and Zhuo is really a hard-working guy." Mark Winston defended his friend.

Raisa is just making a fuss, but she is not lonely. "Chinese people are always very diligent, but Zhuo is also the most special one I have ever met. Well, among all the people."

What about those cannons of yours? Mark cursed in his mind.

"By the way, Raisa. How are you and Zhuo doing?" Mark was very concerned about his friend.

"Zhuo Yang and I are very good. He is a very nice person, romantic, humorous, strong, and very gentleman. We are very happy together." Raisa still hasn't figured out how to treat Zhuo Yang, or it can be said that she hasn't.

Understand how to face Zhuo Yang and how to get along with Zhuo Yang.
