Chapter 52 The Parrot Legion is about to set sail

After Lin Quan got the money, he planned to buy some training equipment to put at home to facilitate daily training.

This game made him realize that his current physical condition was not enough to support him throughout the game.

If he doesn't work hard to improve his physical reserves, he may have to wait until next year or even longer if he wants to start.

I had just bought the equipment and when I returned home with the deliveryman, I found that there was a guest at home.

"Pep, why are you here?"

After seeing that the person coming was Guardiola, Lin Quan was very surprised. He thought that the other person should be busy preparing for the wedding now, and he never expected that the other person would come.

"I saw that you were injured during the game, so I came over to take a look. Is your injury okay?"

Guardiola said with concern.

After leaving Munich, he first went to Dortmund. After learning that Lin Quan returned to Bremen with the team, he pursued him non-stop.

"It's nothing serious. The team doctor used the team's equipment to check me. There is no problem!"

After hearing this answer, Guardiola breathed a sigh of relief.

The answer he was most afraid of hearing was that Lin Quan was seriously injured, but when he saw the other party jumping around, he knew that this possibility was very low.

"That's good!"

At this time, Guardiola saw the training equipment being carried into the house by the workers.

"Did you buy this yourself?"

"Well, I plan to train more physically and try to be a starter as soon as possible!"

"If you start, it may be a little early for a player of your age. It would be better to start on the bench first, and after adapting to the rhythm of the Bundesliga game, try to start!"

Guardiola sighed deeply when he heard that 16-year-old Lin Quan wanted to fight for the starting position.

When he was sixteen years old, he was still struggling in the echelon!

It wasn't until he was 19 years old that he represented the adult team on the stage at Camp Nou, and he would have to wait until he was 21 to truly gain a foothold in the first team.

Compared with himself, Lin Quan started much earlier.

However, after watching Lin Quan's game live, Guardiola realized that the opponent's talent was much stronger than when he was young.

If he is just an ordinary star, then the opponent has the potential to become a superstar.

"Well, that's what the coach said too!"

After Coach Scharf dismissed the team, he specifically talked to Lin Quan for a while.

The content of the conversation was about his tactical positioning in the team in the new season. Schaff told him that he would be the core of the team's offense.

However, his physical fitness is not enough to support him to play the whole game, so coach Schaff hopes that he can accept the tactical arrangement and come on as a substitute in the second half.

A substitute as the team's offensive core?

If other people heard this, they would definitely think that Scharf was lying to children.

But Lin Quan believed that what Shafu said was true and that he did not deceive himself.

He accepts Coach Schaaf's arrangements, but this does not mean that he willingly accepts the substitute position.

Therefore, we must practice physical fitness, strive to meet the requirements of the coaching staff as soon as possible, and grab the starting position.

"It's a good thing to have this spirit, but pay attention to the amount of training and don't injure yourself. At your age, the most important thing to avoid is injuries!"

Guardiola knew that Lin Quan had a stronger personality, so he didn't say much, but just reminded him not to hurt himself.

Guardiola stayed in Bremen for two days, during which he met with the club's coach Schaff, and the two had a very good chat.

Guardiola introduced to Schaff his previous training of Lin Quan and his tactical positioning in the Barcelona youth team.

Schaff asked Guardiola for advice on how to use Messi in Barcelona's first team lineup, including wingers, shadow forwards, etc.

Messi is the most talented player Guardiola has ever coached and the one he is most proud of.

Guardiola has his own ideas on how to use Messi.

If someone else asked him this question, he would definitely not tell them.

But if Schaff asked, it would be different, because Guardiola could see that Schaff seemed to intend to use Lin Quan as Werder Bremen's Messi.

If you think about it carefully, the playing styles of these two people are really very close, and even their passing methods are almost exactly the same.

Maybe the way Barcelona uses Messi can also work here at Werder Bremen?

On the last day, after entertaining Lin Quan’s host family for a meal, Guardiola left Bremen and returned to Catalonia.

Before leaving, he reminded:

"Don't forget to come back to attend my wedding with Sierra. The wedding is scheduled for October 1st!"

"Don't worry, I will remember!"

When his adoptive father and mother get married, he has to go back even if he asks for leave.

What's more, the team didn't have a game that day, so it was even more necessary to go back.

Guardiola left, and Lin Quan's vacation was over.

On August 9, players gradually returned to the club to report.

On this day, Werder Bremen also announced on its official website that all transfer work for this season is over.

All summer signings will be unveiled at the Weser Arena before the team's warm-up match against Premier League team Aston Villa on the 11th, and the team's jerseys for the new season will also be officially open for sale.

This summer, Werder Bremen introduced a total of 11 players, including three on loan, four purchased, two free to join with zero transfer fee, and two promoted from the club's echelons.

Although there are a lot of players introduced, the cost of signings is not high.

A total of 1.25 million euros was spent on renting three people, and 8.5 million euros were spent on buying four people. The total added up to 9.75 million, which is less than 10 million.

This level of spending is definitely a model for small and medium-sized teams to be prudent.

On August 11, Werder Bremen faced the Premier League team Aston Villa at home.

In the pre-match player meeting, the eleven players signed in the summer appeared in sequence.

There were 45,000 spectators at the venue, which was almost full.

The reason why so many people came was mainly because the team's outstanding performance in the Telecom Cup allowed fans to see signs of the team's revival and awakened their enthusiasm for watching football.

Winning the Telecom Cup is an unexpected surprise for Werder Bremen fans.

I thought I was just studying with the prince, but unexpectedly the team actually won the championship.

Although the championship is not as valuable as the league trophy and the German Cup trophy, it is still a trophy, right?

And through these two games, they got to know these new faces of the team.

The strength of players like Lukimya, Selassie, Elia and others has been recognized by the team's fans.

As for the two young players Lin Quan and De Bruyne, they are the two most surprising points of the team in the new season.

Lin Quan's powerful finishing ability in the frontcourt, De Bruyne's combination of midfield and frontcourt, and his talent on the offensive end have been unanimously recognized by the fans.

As a result, they all began to look forward to the team's results in the new season!

Because they got to know these newcomers in the team in advance through these two games, when these players came on the stage, they received warm cheers from the fans at the scene.

Among them, De Bruyne and Lin Quan received the most cheers.

When Lin Quan came on the court wearing the No. 10 jersey, all 45,000 fans at the scene stood up and shouted his name in unison. Some fans even wore the team's new season jersey that had just been put on sale.

The jerseys worn by these fans are Lin Quan's No. 10 jersey!

He has not played a single game in the Bundesliga, but he has become the most popular player in the team among fans!

This scene happened to be recorded by a reporter from Bild, and it became a classic photo discussed by many fans in the future.

The 2012-2013 season is about to start for Werder Bremen.
