7 Bayern's crisis

7 Bayern's crisis

Bayern's crisis in the new season began in the third round of the Bundesliga. At the Nordbank Arena, they lost 1-2 away to Hamburg. The only goal for Bayern was Pizarro who came off the bench...

Throughout the entire game, Bayern's ball possession rate was 47 to 53, and the number of shots was 13 times behind Hamburg's 17 times. There were only three shots, while Hamburg had 10 times.

If it weren't for the Lion King Kahn guarding Bayern's last line of defense, to be honest, Hamburg could really win more.

In this game, Leon, Pizarro and Elber were replaced in the 75th minute of the second half when Bayern fell behind zero to two. Mijic broke through and made a pass from the bottom, and Pizarro scored a face-saving goal for Bayern.

After this game, the crisis in the Bayern team has begun to appear.

With two wins and one loss, they fell to fifth place in the standings, and a day later, at the Champions League draw ceremony, Bayern was also divided into the recognized death group of the Champions League this season.

Their opponents in the group stage all come from the four major leagues, namely AC Milan in Serie A, Deportivo in La Liga and Lens in Ligue 1!

Uh, needless to say about AC Milan in this period, this season in the memory of Leon's previous life, they were the champions of the Champions League. In this AC Milan lineup, the Ukrainian nuclear warhead Shevchenko is at the peak, Rui Costa, the master The super characters are in a brave state. The newly joined Seedorf, Nesta and Dida have made AC Milan unprecedentedly strong, plus Pippo Inzaghi, Maldini and other powerful players...

Well, no matter how you look at it, it is much more luxurious than Bayern Munich's lineup.

As for Deportivo in La Liga? Hmph, if you think he is the Deportivo of later generations, you are wrong, the current Deportivo is the era of Super Deportivo! In La Liga, even Real Madrid and Barcelona can't get any cheap at the devilish Riazor Stadium.

Deportivo, whose offense is paramount, has won the favor of countless fans.

And Lance? Are they the weakest opponents in the group stage? Well, do you know the results of Bayern in this group in the previous life? The Bundesliga class has four losses and two draws without a win! The bottom of the group and the most goals conceded in the group stage were both created by Bayern.

Among them, at home, the Bundesliga Banba was easily defeated by Super Deportivo and Milan...

The crisis is really here. Now this Bayern team, although Leon is already a superstar in terms of fame, Heathfield is still angry with him. As for the other Bayern players, Kahn is a big name, but he is a goalkeeper. Elber and Pizarro didn't get a chance, and Bayern's three-line opponents in the group stage really can only compare with Lance...

As soon as the draw for the group of death came out, Bayern fans felt that something was wrong.

In the fourth round of the Bundesliga, with a 1-1 draw with their little brother Munich 1860. at home, Bayern, which fell to eighth in the standings, also ushered in a crisis of confidence!

Now Lambert of the "Munich Sports Zeitung" doesn't know who to hack, because Bayern can hack anyone. The only goal Bayern conceded in this round came from captain Kahn's miss...

Bayern's new season so far, apart from Pizarro, none of the goals for the team is a striker!

And the piggy Schweinsteiger who played the starting midfielder is too young, and his frequent mistakes in recent games also put him under pressure.

Many Bayern fans began to question Heathfield's employment. At this time, public opinion began to ask Heathfield to use Leonwell.

Although he smokes, drinks, and picks up girls, he is the biggest player in the Bayern team! The combined playing time of Leon in the four games was less than 90 minutes. Even though he was having a good time in Ukraine, when Bayern was at a low point, Bayern fans hoped that the captain of the World Cup champion team could bring some improvement to Bayern!

It is impossible to buy a substitute for 40 million pounds, right?

Now the pressure on Heathfield's shoulders is also extremely huge. After all, the Champions League group stage is about to start. With Bayern Munich's current state, who can they beat?

Super Laco? Greater Milan? Or Lance?

...

On the training ground these days, Leon has discovered that Heathfield is much older, and the team's recent poor condition also makes the iron coach very self-blame.

In fact, Leon feels that Heathfield has no need to blame himself, because Bayern's lineup is actually in the European arena, and it can only be regarded as a top-notch team, and the top-level team is definitely not counted.

Look at the lineups of Serie A, La Liga, and the Premier League and you can understand.

But Bayern is the top player in the Bundesliga. For the first time, Heathfield felt that he should really consider letting Leon, Elber and Pizarro return to the starting lineup?

Perhaps it is his own stubbornness that has made Bayern so bad now?

...

"Boss, can you talk to me alone?" On this day, after the training, Leon also found Heathfield.

Heathfield did not refuse Leon's request, and the two of them just walked on the training ground while chatting.

"Boss, I know that you have been worrying a lot recently, but I still want to make an unreasonable request to you, that is to let me play!" Leon said, looking at Heathfield sincerely.

Heathfield paused, "Didn't you play every game?"

Leon smiled: "Boss, I know you are still angry with me about that incident in Ukraine, and I definitely am not taking advantage of Bayern's poor performance to gain a position."

"Oh?" Heathfield glanced at Leon.

"I promise you, if Bayern can't win Nuremberg on the weekend, then you will let me sit on the bench!" Leon said, looking at Heathfield confidently.

"Leon, I know you are very capable, but do you know? I don't like people who talk big. Why do you think that Bayern will definitely win Nuremberg after you start?" Heathfield also asked curiously, because The confidence in Leon's eyes made him a little uncomfortable.

"Of course I'm not absolutely sure, but I know where the crux of our failure is." Leon said.

"Oh? Can you tell me about it?" Good guy, I don't even know the crux of Bayern's troubles, but you actually know? Lionwell, I hope you don't brag. Heathfield looked at Leon with a respectful expression and said.

"First of all, I would like to ask you to forgive me for judging my teammates. I think the crux of Bayern's troubles lies in the midfield. Veteran Sauer's physical fitness will always be out of touch in the second half, and he lacks speed, which makes us often only Salihamidzic can kick this way. And the opponent will always make a tight defense on our way. Once Salihamidzic is frozen, we have nothing to do in the counterattack fast break Again, I admit that Schweinsteiger is a very good player, but now I think he is more suitable as a winger. He lacks experience in midfield. I think he will play as a midfielder and center in five or six years. This position on the field will be more suitable. Now he should play his young impact and his excellent foot skills to attack the opponent's defense. Also, I think Ziegler's characteristics make him suitable as a suitable substitute rather than a starter. His offensive style is too monotonous. Once a striker is seen dead, the whole team's offense will be out of touch. Santa Cruz is more suitable for his position as a midfielder rather than a center forward, because he will always be attacked by the opponent in the center position. The central defender directly marks, so he can't play his due level at all. I think the reason why Bayern's offense is not smooth now is not that our strength is really inferior to the opponent, but that you have failed to make decisions in several key positions! "Leon boldly contradicted his coach Heathfield.

Tie Shuai Heisfeld's face was completely red with anger, Leon, what is this? Accusing yourself of not being able to employ people? How dare a nineteen-year-old kid accuse himself?

However, just when Heathfield was about to get angry, Leon suddenly smiled: "I know, you must be wondering why a brat can accuse a coach with outstanding achievements. Boss, I know, I What you did in Ukraine made you very sad and disappointed with me. But I hope you can calm down and see clearly the true level of Bayern. A team, if you want to achieve good results, you must first have self-knowledge. Compared with our three teams in the Champions League How sure is Bayern, the giant of the Bundesliga? Boss, I've finished my words. I'm just a bystander. It's you who put me on the bench, so I can see this , think of these."

After saying these words, Leon also turned and left.

On the empty training ground, Hitzfeld was also lost in thought.

I don't know how long it has passed, anyway, the sky has gradually darkened, and Heathfield, who suddenly thought of something, found a tactical board, and arranged something.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He immediately found several assistant coaches of Bayern to watch the videos of Bayern's recent games together.

Heathfield started from the first round of the league, and Bayern won the first round of the league easily 2-0. In this game, it is not so much that Bayern is too strong, it is better to say that Bielefeld directly conceded the victory, They have little effective resistance at all.

Hitzfeld looked through the media reports for more than half a month, and finally found the reason for him why Bielefeld had no resistance, because they changed their coaches before the battle, and the team's veteran assistant coach Oaker was cut by the club. , causing the entire Bielefeld team to be listless!

Then came the second round of the league. Bayern played very hard in this game, and finally won 1-0. Ziegler was completely frozen by the opponent's defender throughout the game, and Santa Cruz also completely lost the aura of the warm-up match.

Then came the third round. The team lost to Hamburg 1-2. Salihamidzic was completely watched to death. Bobby and Pizarro came out to save face, maybe Bayern will lose even worse...

In the fourth round of the league, a one-to-one draw with Munich 1860, Schweinsteiger made repeated mistakes in the midfield. He always missed people or made mistakes in the midfield position...

God, Heathfield found out surprisingly that after the replay, the reason for Bayern's loss was really just like what Leon said! It was my mistake in decision-making at a key position in the frontcourt!

Bastian Schweinsteiger, he is very talented, but he should be played from the wing, and then let him play in midfield after he has accumulated enough experience.

Sauer's physical fitness and speed are not as good as before. Now Sauer's effect as a substitute is definitely better than that of the main force. Ziegler and Santa Cruz have no material to play the main striker at all...

Heathfield couldn't help but smiled wryly after the resumption of the game, "Princess, Concubine, your 40 million pounds is really worth it."

Lionwell, maybe that's why the Argentine was successful?
