Chapter 314

The soap opera between Hamburg and Schalke 04 club on the transfer of lakitic did not last long.

When all the media in European football believed that Hamburg would inevitably choose to give up, and Schalke 04's deliberately difficult behavior somewhat damaged the image of the club, but on January 10, the official websites of the two teams announced the news of lakitic's transfer to Hamburg at the same time!

When Schalke 04 announced the transfer details, the European media were silly!

Hamburg knew that Schalke 04 was raising the price to make things difficult, but it accepted it completely!

The transfer fee is 5 million euros, and the additional terms have a floating follow-up fee of 8 million euros.

Hamburg also generously gave lakitic the top salary contract and gave him a sky high signing fee of 4.5 million euros!

For lakitic, from Schalke 04 to Hamburg, his annual salary has increased a lot. At the same time, he also got 4.5 million euros at one time. He is absolutely satisfied with money. After watching the melon eating crowd play, he can only wait and see whether lakitic will succeed in Hamburg.

Because it was the winter window, situ Yunbing didn't ask the club to arrange the appearance ceremony of new aid.

After the preparations for the second half of the season, situ Yunbing communicated most with lakitic, de Brauner and Cantor. These three will be the main midfield combination of Hamburg in the future.

After Hamburg official announced that lakitic had joined, the German media had a negative view. Some media questioned the rationality of situ Yunbing's recruitment.

On the premise that Hamburg already has de Brauner, will lakitic's arrival squeeze de Brauner's space?

Situ Yunbing is not worried about this. He does not have the courage to take Xavi and Iniesta of Barcelona as a reference, nor does he need the configuration of Dortmund's technical talents in the middle and front court as a basis for refutation. The party lakitic, who was his midfield teammate in Croatia?

Modric!

Lakitic and Modric can coexist. Why can't he coexist with de Brauner?

This obviously can not stand scrutiny in theory.

Therefore, during the training for the second half of the season, situ Yunbing was more serious about the effect of technical and tactical cooperation in the training. At the same time, he frequently communicated with de Brauner and lakitic. Lakitic did not need to instill too much ideas. Organizational players themselves had better tactical understanding than other role players, At the same time, lakitic's experience can also help him integrate well into Hamburg's technical and tactical system.

Hamburg is full of fighting spirit from top to bottom. After strong reinforcements join, it is an incentive for young players and the same for coaches!

In mid January, the second half of the Bundesliga League officially started. Hamburg will go to Schalke stadium to challenge lakitic's old club Schalke 04

At the pre match press conference, situ Yunbing faced reporters' questions, most of which were about lakitic.

He put an end to it.

"I won't mythologize lakitic. He is only 22 years old. He still has a lot of room for progress. I think he is a player who can bring great improvement to the team. Maybe he won't be a hero, but he will be a member of Hamburg's backbone."

Indeed, situ Yunbing never thought that lakitic would be the core of the team, but he is the most important player in Hamburg.

In midfield, he may not be able to send threat balls as frequently as de Brauner, but he can always accurately and successfully send the ball to the feet of the most suitable teammates. The former is more creative and the latter is more stable, which is complementary.

He has no gorgeous movements and modifications, but he can give people a very down-to-earth feeling.

At the same time, he also brings the hardness of defense on the basis of improving the control of the midfield organization in Hamburg!

If Harvey and Pirlo are the benchmark of midfield organization ability in European football today, lakitic is obviously not of the same type as them, just as the object he needs to assist in the Croatian national team is Modric. In Hamburg, although he is older and more experienced than de Brauner, he can be in role allocation, His most intuitive role is to further release de Brauner and improve the support of midfield to the front!

Just like Alonso played in Real Madrid and in the Spanish national team.

Magath's life is difficult. Selling lakitic will only make his life more difficult, but there is no way. The club wants to maximize its interests and blackmail Hamburg. Unexpectedly, if it succeeds, it will be difficult to ride a tiger, so it can only collect money and let people go.

For Magath and Schalke 04 fans in the upcoming game, the last thing they want to see is lakitic's appearance in Hamburg shirt.

But situ Yunbing had no reason to spend money but not enjoy it.

On the evening of January 15, we went to Schalke stadium with a lot of noise.

There was a light rain in the sky. Situ Yunbing, wearing a Navy coat, showed the football coach's alternative sense of fashion and appeared on the sidelines. He didn't mean to be hostile to Magath. Moreover, the current Schalke 04 really doesn't deserve Hamburg's opponent.

When the starting players of the two teams entered the field, lakitic was so dazzling in the eyes of Schalke 04 fans!

A month ago he was still fighting for Schalke 04, but a month later he became an enemy!

Situ Yunbing could have hidden lakiti ć to avoid putting him under too much pressure, but situ Yunbing knew that he had no way back from the second half of the season, and he would shrink his tolerance. Now he really needs the team to guarantee his achievements!

Pressure is a part of growth. Snow hiding lakitic will be more human, but it is also an escape.

It's also hard for him to resist the pressure.

"Good evening, everyone. After the winter break, the battle in the second half of the Bundesliga begins today!

In the winter transfer market, the most sensational thing is the transfer of Schalke 04 midfield core lakitic to Hamburg. The reason why this transfer attracts attention is mainly because Schalke 04 priced lakitic 2 million euros for foreign clubs, but Hamburg 5 million euros, and reneged on the floating clause of 8 million euros after the first negotiation, When everyone was not optimistic about the transfer, Hamburg completely accepted the lack of integrity of Schalke 04. Finally, lakitic transferred to Hamburg and played today to challenge Schalke 04 on behalf of Hamburg!

Although Schalke 04, who is at home today, has reached the top 16 of the Champions League, they basically bid farewell to the European war next season in the league. I don't know whether Magath's team has lost faith in the league and they will stay in Europe more.

Hamburg led by situ Yunbing won the second place at the end of the first half of the league, only four points behind Dortmund. After they introduced lakitic, their midfield strength has improved. It is obvious that they are very ambitious for the league title. I don't know whether they can maintain the high level of the first half of the season in the second half of the season.

Introduce the starting lineup of both sides today.

Schalke 04 started 442 formation today.

Goalkeeper: noyle.

Defenders: hervedez, matip, metzeld, Schmitz.

Midfield: Raul, Moritz, draxler, falfan.

Forwards: Huntelaar, edu.

Magath's platoon is too aggressive, but it can't help worrying about the defense of Schalke 04. It can even be said that Schalke 04 played a 424 formation!

Hamburg started 433

Goalkeeper: Navas.

Defenders: azpiliquetta, matesen, Boateng, Matuidi.

Midfield: lakitic, Cantor, de Brauner.

Forwards: Elia, glitzmann, Royce.

Today, situ Yunbing's starting employment is also very bold. Kanter's task on the back waist line is not easy!

Well, the game will start right away. Let's look forward to what sparks the two teams will spark tonight! "

After lakitic left, Magath went around the youth team and brought 17-year-old draxler to the first team!

If it is crazy for situ Yunbing to introduce Navas, Kanter and van Dijk before the season, who were either in the desert league or playing for amateur teams, then Magath is no less than situ Yunbing.

Draxler is not only younger, but also directly used to start, but also facing Hamburg, second in the championship!

What can situ Yunbing say?

Only envy!

Schalke 04's resources are really enviable, but with such a good hand, Magath plays poorly.

The game officially began in the cold wind and rain. Schalke 04 tried to suppress Hamburg with a strong attack from the beginning. Their staffing is obviously better at attack!

Lakitic gestured to Cantor from the beginning to let him help defend the flank. He stayed in the middle to guard against draxler's attack.

He knows Schalke 04 better than any player in Hamburg. Today, Moritz, the two midfield players in Schalke 04, is responsible for defense. Draxler may break in assists outside the midfield organization, but lakitic is confident to limit the Schalke 04 young player in his own half.

Kanter actively helped azpiliqueta defend the sidelines and help azpiliqueta finish the closing down of falfan. Instead of forcibly breaking through, falfan chose to knock the ball back to Schmitz, who directly lifted the ball to the restricted area.

Huntelaar and edu were both powerful centers, but because the passing distance was too long, there was enough time for Hamburg defenders to adjust their reaction, and Boateng headed out easily.

Hamburg is in the middle of the backcourt. Schalke 04 has no personnel to harass Hamburg's attack and defense conversion.

Magath doesn't know whether to put all his eggs in one basket or not. Anyway, he can't understand the employment and troop arrangement of situ Yunbing today. It's not that he can't see Schalke 04's determination to attack, but that he doesn't understand Magath. It's like another manifestation of Guardiola's pursuit of extreme transmission and control.

Because it is clear that Schalke 04 is unable to compete with Hamburg in midfield.

Lakitic and de Brauner smoothly organized the attack to the front court, and draxler came forward to press and grab, which was slightly inexperienced, strong momentum but inefficient.

When de Brauner went to the front of the restricted area to receive the pass from lakitic, he walked around like a fake fax button and wiped Moritz. Then he sent a diagonal plug to send the ball behind metzeld. Glitzmann put a cold shot in front of him and the football flew straight to the lower right corner of the goal!

Glitzman was ready to celebrate, but noyle stunned him and threw the ball out of the baseline!

Well, maybe behind the madness of Magath is absolute confidence in Neuer, and Neuer is indeed a young goalkeeper who can bring confidence to the whole team and the head coach!
