Chapter 343 K God Turns Over
Seeing that George only mentioned the names of a few of them, most of them were already famous players, and the rest of the stars who were very popular in European football, such as Robinho, Figueroa, Hinkel, etc., did not enter George's eyes without exception. It has to be said that this situation was really beyond Beckenbauer's expectations!
"George, your requirements are really strict." Beckenbauer could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Because he found that the players mentioned by the other party, except for Mertesak who played in Hannover 96 and Schweinsteiger, who was a Bayern player, were almost impossible to handle!
Mascherano and Macon are Tottenham players. Adriano and Kaka play for Milan's two Milan players. Although Tevez did not play in the giant club, Bayern's hope of winning him is very slim. Under George's secret operation, the Argentine beast got the opportunity to land in Europe early, and used Atletico Madrid, coached by his mentor Bielsa, as his first stop in European football. Last season, his outstanding performance of Atletico Madrid scored 14 goals and six assists, which made Tevez more attention from the giant club. Bayern, who is in the Bundesliga, finds it difficult to show off the conditions to impress the beast born in Buenos Aires.
Although ranked among the top giants, in fact, Bayern was not very attractive to players, especially those first-class players during this period. Most players would rather play in the middle and upper-level football teams in the other three major leagues than considering the possibility of Bayern playing!
The reason for this situation is, on the one hand, because of the business policy of Heness's living within his means and the bankruptcy of the Bundesliga's main broadcaster, Kirch Group, which has led to Bayern basically not offering too high personal treatment to a player; on the other hand, it is because Bayern's performance in the European court in the past few years has been too bleak. The reality of the failure of the group stage twice in the past three seasons is difficult to make people regard it as a top giant!
What Beckenbauer didn't know was that in order to avoid arousing more doubts, George had already included Adriano in the scope of the Star of Hope. Otherwise, George wouldn't have mentioned the new king of the Meacha Stadium at all!
Realizing that it was impossible to dig out more valuable information from George, Beckenbauer had to arrange for the scouts to conduct an inspection of Mertesacker to see if this young central defender, who was praised by George, had found the value of Bayern for training.
However, after watching the semi-finals of the Federation Cup between Germany and Brazil, Beckenbauer began to doubt whether George had missed the truth this time. How could he think that such a guy with slow turn and weak athletic ability has the potential to become a top central defender?
This is the main reason why George mentioned Mertesacker in front of Beckenbauer - indeed, Mertesacker has top potential in front defense and air defense capabilities, but this young center back with obvious advantages and disadvantages is not suitable for Bayern Munich now. After all, Lucio and Demichelis are quite frizzy on the defensive end, and it is basically impossible to expect them to be able to protect Mertesacker behind the game. Therefore, if Bayern signs Mertesacker, it will not have any effect on the team's strength!
Although under the influence of George, Klose did not miss this Federation Cup due to injury as he did in his previous life, and he impressed Klinsman with his outstanding condition and successfully regained the starting position from Kulanyi, in the semi-finals of the Federation Cup held on June 25, facing the powerful Samba Legion, the German tank finally lost after tenacious resistance for 120 minutes, and was eliminated by Brazil with a score of 3-4, and unfortunately stopped at the semi-finals of the Federation Cup!
Although Germany was eliminated in the semi-finals, Klose's performance was unanimously praised by fans and media. In this game, he replaced Kulanyi as the starting center and pierced Dida's ten fingers twice in the game. If it weren't for the middle defense line composed of Hut and Mertesak who were defeated by Adriano alone, then Germany would have a chance to get a ticket to the finals!
In this way, after the end of this game, the call for Klose to replace Kuranyi as the main center of the German team was much higher. He was able to continuously break through Argentina and Brazil's goal, and also staged a double-scoring scene. Klose won the hearts of fans and media through practical actions, and also made Klinsmann fall into deep entanglement again!
"Yuasim, your words are indeed very reasonable. Since it is a state-based theory, and Klose is also very suitable for the current tactical style of the German team, then I really don't have to let Kuranyi play the main force." Under Löw's guidance, Klinsman finally gave up his plan to force Kuranyi. The previous choice to support the former in the battle between Lehman and Kahn's main goalkeeper has put a heavy pressure on the Golden Bomber. He does not want another battle of verbalism because of Klose and Kuranyi.
What's more, Klose's performance in these two games is really impeccable, and his goal efficiency is much higher than that of Kulanyi. Even if Klinsman wants to win Kulanyi, he can't find a suitable reason or opportunity!
The one who was most dissatisfied with this was Kuranyi, who was taken from the starting position. The center who had just transferred from Stuttgart to Schalke 04 was originally looking forward to further consolidate his position in the national team with excellent performance in this Federation Cup. Unexpectedly, Klose, who had been suppressed by him, made his progress after transferring to Tottenham, can be described as a thousand miles a day, and even turned over and pressed him on the bench!
Therefore, after getting the message from Klinsman from Lof, Kulanyi, who felt the pressure was increasing, had to give up his original play plan and formulate an intensive training plan according to Lof's suggestion - he does not want the World Cup held in the local area to watch other teammates' performances on the bench next year as he does!
The reason why Kulanyi in his previous life did not make significant progress after becoming famous in Stuttgart, his unstable goal efficiency and insufficient ability to seize opportunities at critical moments have troubled his entire career, largely because of his weak enterprising spirit, and for a long time, there were no competitors in the national team and club that could pose a threat to him, which made him unconsciously slow down his pace of progress and was successfully surpassed by Klose.
It is foreseeable that if Kulanyi can really stick to the training plan given by Löw, then he will definitely be much better than his previous life in this life!
Just when Kulanyi made up his mind to strive for strength this summer and prove that he was the number one center of the national team, on the other hand, Argentina led by Riquelme defeated Mexico through a penalty shootout at the AWD Stadium in Hannover, and successfully met with his old enemy Brazil in the Federation Cup final!
