"Magath said that the team is still in the running-in period... This is really strange - the league has been going on for almost two months, why is it still in the running-in period? Shouldn't this kind of thing be solved before the league starts?"

"Magath said he was still running in the team... I laughed when I heard the words - if a head coach said he was still running in the team two months after the league began, then I think he would better resign voluntarily to avoid wasting the team's time - a giant like Bayern Munich is still running in? Then when will it take to run in? Can the league and the Champions League give them this time? In the league, Bayern Munich lost 0:2 to Hamburg. In the Champions League, Bayern Munich played stumbling in the first group stage. It's really impossible to feel at ease with their performance..."

After the competition against Hamburg, major media mocked Magath's words, "We are still in the running-in period."

But in fact, what Magath said is true, Bayern Munich is indeed in the running-in period.

As the team's central axis, Rongguang and Barack have never tried it before. The first time they played like this, they naturally have to get through.

But the media don't know this.

They thought Bayern Munich only needed to fully activate the glory like Werder Bremen. What kind of running-in is needed?

However, these media have ignored a problem.

Werder Bremen has to do this because their other players have no way to compete with Bayern Munich. But Bayern Munich has this condition. In addition to glory, their other players are not weak. Why do they rely solely on the power of glory?

※※※

Magath doesn't care about the media's ridicule. He has been scolded in the media because of his unique training methods.

So I've been used to it for a long time.

His mind is full of thought - to adjust the central axis of Glory and Barack.

If Bayern Munich is a car, then he will have to adjust the chassis now. The chassis will be well adjusted and the handling will be better.

During the team's training, Magath would let Rong Guoguang and Barak have a fixed partner. Whether it was tactical training or the simple pass training that was just a round-trip, Rong Guang was with Barak.

The previous combination of Xun Lan was random, and the coach was reassigned in each training class.

Now Glory and Barak are fixed.

Magath hopes to improve his understanding of Glory and Barack in this way, and be familiar with Barack's way and style of playing football.

In addition, Misimovic also needs to integrate with the entire team as soon as possible. He has been playing as a substitute before. If Ma Kai had not performed too badly, he would not have been able to get so many opportunities to play.

Previously, the team's tactics were always set with "PR combination" as the core.

Now it takes time to overthrow it and start over again.

So Magath said that running-in time is normal, but the media did not understand it, which led to such a result.

However, Magath also knew that the media were right, that is, there was really not much time left for Bayern Munich.

The tactics were determined two months after the league began. Although there were some objective and helpless factors, the wealthy families usually don’t care about those objective factors. They only look at the results. As long as your team results cannot satisfy them, then you can wait to be a scapegoat.

He has coached Bayern Munich for one season, and only won one German Cup, and there was no other championship with enough weight. Last season, it can be said that Werder Bremen, where the glory is located, was too strong, so Bayern Munich could not compete with Werder Bremen.

Then this season, Rong Guang returns to Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich's strength has indeed increased, but at the same time, Magath's pressure has also increased. Because the failure of last season is understandable, but now after Rong Guang returns, it is unreasonable to fail again? Rong Guang's return has cut off all Magath's retreat. He can only have one way to succeed now.

If he can't make a breakthrough this season, he may have to get out...

※※※

Magath made the team race against time to familiarize themselves with new tactics during training.

But the players are humans, not machines after all.

Continuous high-intensity training can easily cause fatigue, and fatigue can easily cause injury.

Finally, during training, the team's starting center Pizarro was injured...

Because he started continuously and had no rest time, Pizarro was actually very tired. In addition, his training intensity was high, so his body couldn't hold on.

While doing a technical move during training, he sprained his ankle.

This is not a big injury, and it will not cause him to miss all the next games of the season. But it is a very troublesome injury. Because if it is not completely cured, it can easily become a habitual sprain. In the game, when the ankle is moved, it will be often easily injured. After frequent injuries, it will be a huge blow to the players' physical and psychological state. Some players even fall into a state of state and completely fade out of people's vision - this is not alarmist, there are many precedents.

So as soon as Pizarro was injured, the team's chief team doctor Dr. Walfat was very nervous and immediately asked Pizarro to stop all the next training and not participate in any competition until he recovered completely.

"But next is the Champions League group stage." Assistant coach Henke frowned.

"That's not OK, find someone to replace him." Wolfart said.

"This, Pizarro's replacement...it's hard to find." Henk scratched his head, looking very difficult

In the first game, Bayern Munich beat Vienna quickly and won just by relying on his glorious individual performance.

This puts great pressure on Bayern Munich.

In the next Champions League group stage, Bayern Munich's opponent is the strongest opponent in this group - Juventus.

If Bayern Munich wants to compete for the first place in the group, it must win the home game against Juventus.

In fact, it is not just the first in the group. If Bayern Munich wants to qualify in the group, it is better to beat Juventus at home.

However, before such an important game, Pizarro was injured...

Although Pizarro scored not many goals in the team, the role of tactical fulcrum is very obvious. He is a very important member of Bayern Munich's starting lineup.

His absence is not just a center. Glory's ability to score consecutive goals has a lot to do with Pizarro's restraint of the opponent's defense line in front.

After Pizarro was injured, Bayern Munich had to find a replacement, and this replacement could not be found casually.

First of all, this person must have the ability to score, so that when the opponent focuses on the defense, Barack, he must be able to stand up and shoot.

Secondly, this person must have the ability to make balls for his teammates. He must know how to pass the ball. This will not simply pass the football to his teammates, but must be able to create some scoring opportunities and provide assists to his teammates.

The third and most important point is that this person must have a selfless spirit. But if a center is good at scoring goals, how can he be selfless? Successful and excellent centers are selfish. But if he does not have such spirit, when Glory, Barack and others run to the position, he does not choose to pass the ball, but does it himself, causing the team to miss the opportunity to score. It is okay once or twice, but what does it look like every time? Do you still have to be tactical discipline?

Just when Henk didn't know what to do, head coach Magath suddenly said: "Michael, have you forgotten? We have a center."

"You mean Roy?" Henk asked hesitantly.

When did Magath change his impression of Makai and would he give him a chance at this time?

But Magath shook his head: "Of course it's not him, but someone else."

"Not Roy Makai?" Henk was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead suddenly: "Yes, why did I forget him?"

Both of them then turned their attention to the training ground and focused on one person at the same time.

That person is... the team's substitute center Lucas Sutton

The substitute center he bought as a replacement for the injured Santa Cruz still got a minute of playing time.

"Yes, in this position that emphasizes tactical ability, Lucas' tactical acceptance ability is very outstanding." Henk remembered Lucas' performance in training.

With all the tactics overturned and started over again, Lucas Sutton accepted it as the fastest in the team.

Even faster than Glory.

Tell him about tactics and he will understand it. In this regard, he is even better than Rongguang. Rongguang's ability in tactical understanding is actually not very outstanding...

Lucas is actually not like a Brazilian player... In terms of football, his style of playing football is very simple, but very efficient. His compliance with tactical discipline also surprised Bayern Munich's coaching staff. Few Brazilian players have performed so well in tactical discipline...

Everyone knows what their performance is like in many Brazilian and South American players in the Bundesliga.

There is no doubt that Brazilian players have outstanding talents and outstanding personal abilities. But God is fair. Brazilian players have outstanding talents and good personal abilities. They often lack tactical discipline. They always perform very casually in the game and do not abide by the tactics arranged by the head coach very much.

Although Rongguang is not a Brazilian player, he also reflects this characteristic of Brazilian players. Sometimes, when he is in a hurry to kill, he does not care about the tactics arranged by the head coach. He relies more on individuals rather than teams, which is also his problem.

But in Lucas Sutton, this is completely impossible.

He will do whatever the coaches ask him to do. He will not do anything when he tells him not to do. He is obedient like a German…

Of course, outside the football field, Lucas is a standard Brazilian with a lively and enthusiastic personality and cheerful personality.

Both South Americans, Lucas is stronger than Pizarro in terms of tactical execution.

"We have never given Lucas a chance to play before because his tactics with the team are not very compatible. But now I think there is no such problem anymore. Moreover, he has a good relationship with Rong, and his cooperation is more tacit..." said Magath. "In the next game, let him replace Pizarro to start."

In fact, Ma Kai can also play center, but Ma Gat does not seem to intend to give this player who dares to confront him in person. He wants to completely ban Roy Ma Kai.

※※※

When Pizarro was injured, Rong Guang was stunned at first, then he turned his head and looked at his friend Lucas.

He noticed Lucas' eyes were glittering.

Although it is a bit unfair to Pizarro, the truth is that - Rongguang clenched his fists when Pizarro was injured, and his face showed an expression of expectation.

And he had to admit that he thought of this at that moment, otherwise he wouldn't have turned his head and looked at Lucas.
