Evening, August 11, 2007, sebena training base.
In the press conference hall of the club, Gao Han, the first coach of Bayern Munich, appeared at the press conference of sebena. In front of many media reporters, he announced the name list of tomorrow's home match against Rostock.
Ribery, Robben, Modric, Rahm, Schweinsteiger, humales, Lucio, Neuer and other players are all on the list without exception. Klose, Aguero, van Bommel, Marcello and other players are also on the list, which did not surprise the media reporters.
What they want to know more is, what are Gao's specific thoughts on the other seven Bundesliga games that ended an hour ago, and what are his plans for tomorrow's game against Rostock?
This season's Bundesliga opener was held yesterday, with defending champion Stuttgart playing Schalke 04 at home.
The whole game was very fierce and the rhythm was very fast. In this fierce and fast-paced game, the two teams made a lot of mistakes one after another. Schalke had better luck in the first half. He shot at Stuttgart's defender, changed his direction and got a goal.
But at the beginning of the second half, Stuttgart began to show his strength, and the highly praised young player hedilla stepped forward at the critical moment to level the score for Stuttgart. Five minutes later, the home team scored another goal and overtook the score.
But in the 76th minute, Croatian youngster rajitic scored a goal for Schalke 04 to level the score.
In the end, the two teams shook hands 2-2.
For such a result, Gao said it was a wonderful opening battle.
"Both teams have shown a very high level, they are very good, proving that they have the strength to attack the league championship, but also reminds us that we have to go all out in every game to have a chance to win
In addition to Stuttgart's 0.4 draw with Schalke, Bochum's 2-2 draw with Werder Bremen at home and Leverkusen's 0-0 draw with cortebus at home are surprising, especially Leverkusen's.
Pharmaceutical companies also invested a lot this season, but from the performance of the team, the investment did not seem to be able to transform into the competitiveness of the team, whether from the pre-season or from the first round of the league, Leverkusen did not show satisfactory strength.
Hamburg beat Hanover 96 1-0 away, but Wolfsburg, who has made more efforts this season, lost to Bielefeld 1-3 at home after last season's breathtaking relegation. This is a bit of a surprise.
It's also surprising that Dortmund lost 3-1 to Duisburg. In addition, Frankfurt won Hertha Berlin 1-0. In the first round of the new season, seven games have been completed, which can be described as unexpected.
Alpine evaluation of this is that the overall strength of the Bundesliga is rising.
"We all know that after the glory of the beginning of the century, the Bundesliga League began to sink. In the past few years, there has been no satisfactory performance. Especially after 2001, no team in the Bundesliga has entered the top four of the Champions League. Even in the European league table, the Bundesliga has been overtaken by the French and become the fifth League in Europe."
What alpine cold said is basically the general consensus of Germany.
The downfall of the Bundesliga is closely related to the bankruptcy of the kirsch group, but it is not a reason and excuse for the decline of the league, especially when the Bundesliga has fallen to the fifth place in Europe.
"But I would like to say that in the past few years, the managers of the Bundesliga have successfully completed a transformation. They have made considerable improvement in finance. They have become more pragmatic. After the accumulation of the past few years, I have seen statistics from the Bild before this season that the transfer investment of the Bundesliga exceeds 200 million euros, which has created a record high for the Bundesliga."
After listening to the media, it was a little funny, because in the investment of more than 200 million euros, Bayern Munich team has reached 120 million euros, accounting for 60%, while the other 17 teams have invested the remaining 40%.
Everyone can see that Bayern Munich is a unique team.
Of course, it has something to do with the fact that the Bundesliga giants only finished fourth in the League last season and the team needs to be restructured.
The Bundesliga is recovering, which can be seen from season ticket sales before the season.
So far, 18 Bundesliga teams have sold more than 370000 season tickets this season, which is the best season ticket selling League in all leagues in Europe so far.
"Mr. Gao, I agree with you that the Bundesliga is really recovering, but I'd like to know what kind of role do you think Bayern Munich will play in the whole process of Bundesliga recovery? Because we know that Bayern Munich has invested 120 million euros this season, accounting for 60% of the total investment in the Bundesliga A reporter stood up and asked.
"Thank you for the question." Gao Han nodded and laughed politely.
"I would like to say that Bayern Munich is the most competitive team in the Bundesliga in Europe. I believe no one will deny this. I think we should play a pioneer role in the whole process of Bundesliga recovery, which is also one of the most important tasks for me to come to Bayern Munich."
"The management of Bayern Munich have a lot of trust in me. They told me that Bayern Munich and even the whole German football are in urgent need of a vigorous change. I also hope I can make some contribution to Bayern Munich and German football within my ability."
"As for you saying that Bayern Munich's investment accounts for 60% of the total investment of the Bundesliga, I don't think it's a problem. We have brought the best and best stars, which has greatly stimulated the market of Bayern Munich and enhanced the competitiveness of the Bundesliga team in Europe. I don't think it's a problem."
"I want to say that behind Bayern Munich's investment, there is enough strong financial support."
Anyone familiar with the Bundesliga League knows that Bayern Munich not only leads the Bundesliga in terms of revenue, but also never loses to Manchester United and Real Madrid in Europe. This is the reason why Bayern Munich dare to invest more than 100 million euros in a season.
As for other teams in the Bundesliga, I'm afraid it will take some time to accumulate.
"But, Mr. Gao Han, I have a question."
"Well, excuse me."
"You said that Bayern Munich should be the forerunner of German football reform, but according to what we have seen, Bayern Munich has been poaching the leading stars of other German teams in the past few years, from Ballack who has left the team, to van Biden later, to Podolski, and has poached Klose and Neuer this season. Do you think this is reasonable?"
As soon as the reporter's question was finished, there was some uproar at the scene.
Bayern Munich hollowed out the Bundesliga's speech, has always existed, even to this summer there is a growing trend.
The cold stopped the club's press officer and signaled the scene to be quiet. He believed he could cope with the situation.
"I can answer this question. Please sit down first."
When the reporter sat down, Gao said: "first of all, I want to say, whether this is a reasonable phenomenon, I don't know, but in addition to the Bundesliga, the whole European top league's top teams are doing this, the top four teams in the Premier League, the top three teams in the Western League and the Serie A teams will also poach players from their domestic rivals."
"But on the other hand, we should look at it this way. Why are the Bundesliga teams willing to sell their stars to rivals like Bayern Munich? Why do they want to weaken themselves, strengthen their opponents and sell their players?"
As soon as the cold voice fell, the reporter who asked the question immediately called out with a sneer, "of course, it's Bayern Munich's shameless poaching."
There was a burst of laughter.
Gao can not help but smile, but shook his head, "this is obviously unreasonable, you know, Ballack and other players are super strength, there is no lack of interest in foreign teams, even sometimes, foreign teams, especially some teams with stronger purchasing power are willing to offer higher prices, but why do they want to sell to Bayern Munich?"
The reporter who sneered at me just now suddenly stopped talking and couldn't answer.
"The reason is very simple. They think it's more secure to sell to Bayern Munich because it's a team in the National League
"First of all, we should make it clear that these teams need to sell their players to get a considerable transfer fee and put them into the transfer market. As we all know, most of the transfer fees are paid by instalments. As far as I know, in the past, when the Bundesliga teams sold their players to other leagues, they often faced a situation, that is, after they got the first term, The next few installments have been shelved again and again. "
"I heard that the most outrageous one was that the other side sold all the players, but did not pay the balance, and finally had to file a complaint with UEFA. But the whole process was very troublesome, and even if UEFA finally made an arbitration, it may not be able to be implemented. I believe this phenomenon is not a special case, is it?"
Many reporters on the scene nodded.
The reason why they didn't report these things in the newspapers is that the fans are not interested at all. They only care about the transfer fee of the players and who cares how many periods you have? Have you received the balance?
But in European football, the dispute over transfer fee has always been the highlight of the club's contradiction.
However, due to the different laws and rules between countries, there are many troubles in inter League transactions. Even now that Europe has established the European Union, it has not changed.
Therefore, many Bundesliga players are more willing to sell their players to Bayern Munich for the sake of safety.
As for Bayern Munich, it is normal that they are willing to play in their own league. This is true for all the top teams in the league, because it can avoid the problem of players' maladjustment and reduce the risk of the club's investment.
The explanation of alpine cold is reasonable and convincing.
In the final analysis, Bayern Munich is just a professional team. It is not in line with the law of the market to impose harsh requirements on him just because he is stronger than other League rivals.
What's more, Bayern Munich itself has taken on the task of the League pioneer.
No matter in the technical and tactical changes, or youth training investment, it is the same.
"Mr. Gao Han, I'm from kicker magazine."
Gao Han nodded, "excuse me."
"According to the tradition of the Bundesliga, the head coaches of 18 Bundesliga teams are invited to make predictions before the first round of each season, including the league title and the team's performance."
"Well, I've heard of the tradition." Just before the press conference, the press officer said this.
"To be honest with you, we have interviewed the head coaches of 17 other teams. They all think that Bayern Munich will win the League because you have invested more than 100 million euros in the transfer market, which is more than the total investment of the other 17 Bundesliga teams."
"Yes, you're right, so I'm very honored to have such a team. I believe it's hard for me to say anything like hitting the top three of the League after so much investment."
All the reporters present were excited when they heard this.
Gao Han stood up from his seat, put his hands on the platform, and looked firmly at the reporters in front of him.
In an instant, the magnesium lamp almost flashed.
"Yes, there is no doubt that we have only one goal, that is the champion!"
The reporters were all excited.
"It's not just the Bundesliga title, we want to get the UEFA Cup and all the titles we can get
The reporters were even more excited. It was like beating chicken blood.
"Next season, we will go back to the Champions League. My team and I will make everyone and all our opponents change for Bayern Munich and the Bundesliga
In an instant, the whole press conference hall was in an uproar!
