Chapter 309: The Uncrowned King Deserves Respect

On October 5th, the eighth round of the Bundesliga, that is, the round of Dortmund returning to the Bundesliga after playing Marseille. Their away game is against Borussia Mönchengladbach, which can only be regarded as a mid-upstream team at best. No one thinks that Dortmund What kind of trouble will he encounter? At least in the past few seasons when Zhou Tiancheng moved to Dortmund, he only lost one game against Borussia.

But the final result surprised everyone.

2:0, the live scoreboard was not reversed, and the home team Borussia Mönchengladbach won.

This is a standard defensive counterattack victory. The number of shots Dortmund is 15:3, which is five times higher than that of the opponent, and the ball possession rate is as high as 70%, but in the end it is completely opposite to the iconic scenes that Dortmund often plays.

Borussia Mönchengladbach's victory really made Dortmund's competitors secretly excited. Dortmund's first defeat of the season caught the entire Bundesliga off guard. After the game, many Bundesliga experts can probably see their attitudes when replaying the biggest upset of this round,

"It's not without reason that Dortmund suffered the first loss of the season. It has a lot to do with Zhou's range of activities." Heat map to support my point of view: "Zhou's activity area is only limited to the midfield area, and he even seldom shoots from the back. Is this in line with his usual way of playing? Everyone has the answer in their hearts. So what is the reason? Such fluctuations in the stable weekly state? Perhaps the most convincing reason is his mental state. It is estimated that the Golden Globes made him entangled enough."

I talked a lot in eloquence, but the last sentence is the key point - the doubts of the media have affected Zhou Tiancheng's mental state, and the mental state of the football king can also become unstable...

This is the conclusion that many reporters have spent a long time trying to "speculate". At least in the Bundesliga, the most direct championship opponents will be very happy to see this scene.

...

The fact is that Zhou Tiancheng felt a slight discomfort in his calf muscles during a physical confrontation in the second half of the game, which affected his running. Klopp did not explain more to the media. It is normal to lose a game in a long league. Some things became more and more blurred, and with Klopp's character, he simply didn't bother to explain.

Observing Zhou Tiancheng's state every day, among other things, Klopp is 120% assured of Zhou Tiancheng's inner self-regulation ability. Will he disturb his mentality because of these things?

Seeing him chatting and laughing with Aubameyang and Hummels, Klopp couldn't help but sneer: I'm afraid he doesn't even bother to say a word, and it's not speculative to talk to a group of reporters who don't understand anything. .

The only thing he cared about was Zhou Tiancheng's physical condition.

After next week, Dortmund will soon welcome Arsenal, a crucial opponent in the group stage, in the Champions League.

Klopp attaches great importance to it, and he especially values ​​​​the Champions League when Zhou Tiancheng may leave next season.

So another weekend, facing the Hannover 96 league, he simply arranged for Zhou Tiancheng to rest for the whole game to adjust his state-according to the authoritative diagnosis of Dr. Braun, the team medical team leader, Zhou Tiancheng's injury was a minor injury It is not a new injury caused by an old injury. In fact, due to Zhou Tiancheng's excellent playing style and physical fitness, he has almost never been injured, and his physical foundation is quite good, so he only needs a little rest.

With Dortmund's strength, after Klopp gave everyone a serious summary, naturally there will be no more problems. In the ninth round of the Bundesliga, they defeated Hannover 96 2:1, which was not a big victory, but it definitely proved that the last loss was at best just a tiger nap.

But this is only from their point of view, and from the opponent's point of view, what you see is something else.

For example, the English media, the reason why the "Sun" wanted to intervene in the controversy about the king some time ago,

It's not unreasonable. In the Champions League, of course it is to help the teams in their respective leagues. Even if they are not considered the mouthpiece of Arsenal, but anyway, even if they choose sides, they will not side with Dortmund.

So they saw that Zhou Tiancheng did not play in the league. On the one hand, they were worried that Zhou Tiancheng would use this to adjust his state, but they were more excited: if he didn't play, at least the possibility of not starting the game should be greater!

Wenger's chance has come!

...

However, what is slapping is that in the lobby of the press conference before the game, when Wenger, as the head coach of the visiting team, left the field after answering the questions, he saw Zhou Tiancheng and the staff waiting at the entrance of the lobby. Klopp.

Wenger consciously stayed on Zhou Tiancheng's body for a few seconds. He saw Zhou Tiancheng standing upright, moving his body non-stop. He didn't seem to be injured at all. He noticed that when he was looking at him, he even looked at him. Showing a smile, it didn't look like it was forced out, but the confidence exuded from the bones.

Wenger frowned suddenly, and at the same time greeted the media in his heart: Does this seem to be a problem?

He felt that he had to vaccinate the players again when he went back. This was obviously to deal with a boss with full health.

Zhou Tiancheng walked to his seat, and waved to the reporters below with a smile. Even many reporters were stunned, except for the Chinese reporters whose eyes suddenly became clear: I knew Zhou Tiancheng would not fall so easily!

However, although everyone has different ideas in their hearts, as a reporter, you have to continue to ask questions, and now there are more questions to ask.

For example, Wenger's statement just now.

"May I ask Zhou, is your physical condition allowed to play? Just now Wenger said that they are fully prepared." The Dortmund reporter threw a brick to attract jade.

Zhou Tiancheng replied with a smile: "I absolutely believe this. If they come to us and are not prepared, then we will have to teach them a lesson. Even if he is a 'professor', don't try to escape... As for whether I can appear , It depends on how the boss arranges. But I am very much looking forward to this game. Arsenal may have been waiting for such an opportunity after that season, and it has to be satisfied."

"Is it really that simple?" The reporter blinked subconsciously, thinking it might not be that simple.

Zhou Tiancheng nodded affirmatively: "Of course... Although he is an uncrowned king, he is still worthy of respect."

There was a burst of laughter at the scene.

The Uncrowned King?

Strictly speaking, Arsenal are not counted, but the last time they won the championship is too long-it was the 2003-04 season.

I have no impression of the younger generation of fans at all, Zhou Tiancheng really can't make a mistake when he said that.

Because after he started his professional player career, the Arsenal he encountered was never a championship team!

Amidst the burst of laughter, the English reporters only felt that their faces were burning.
