Shadow Killer of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 65
"Mr. Fred, what do you think of Hongtai's current situation?"

Wu Qingyang sat opposite Fred and asked about the situation of the team.

"It's very bad. The players are very lazy and need to strengthen training."

Wu Qingyang's smile froze on his face, he was very uncomfortable with Fred's straightforwardness.

Assistant Chen hurriedly laughed at the side: "Mr. Fred, you can't use German standards to demand players. After all, this is not Germany."

"Then what standard should I use?"

Assistant Chen originally just wanted to change the subject, but he blushed at Fred's question and couldn't say anything.

Assistant Chen could only smile awkwardly and turned his face away.

This Fred is really too old-fashioned, and he doesn't know anything about the world.

Wu Qingyang took the opportunity to interject: "Mr. Fred, I can understand your thoughts, and I also support you to be strict with the team. But you can't rush anything, you have to take it step by step."

Wu Qingyang wanted to give Fred a step to ease the atmosphere.

Fred turned out to be completely ungrateful.

"Since Mr. Wu handed over the team to me, I will be responsible for the team. If Mr. Wu is not satisfied with me, he can fire me at any time."

After speaking, Fred stood up, opened the door and walked out.

Wu Qingyang's face was full of embarrassment.

"This Fred is too much, and has no manners at all."

Assistant Chen looked very angry.But his anger was just to make Wu Qingyang feel better.

"Forget it, people with skills have a big temper."

Wu Qingyang's light words revealed the matter.

Recently, it has often been reported that the training pressure is high, so Wu Qingyang wanted to understand the situation, but broke up unhappy.

The new season is about to start, Hongtai arranged two warm-up matches.

One is Laibin, a Chinese Super League team, and the other is Tianyu, who has just been promoted to the Chinese Premier League.

Laibin Club is the middle and lower reaches of the Chinese Super League.Although struggling on the relegation line every year, they can pass through with difficulty in the end.It can be called Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death.

However, against Hongtai, Laibin has a very obvious advantage, and the audience showed a strong suppressing force.

Fred adopted a four-five-one defensive counterattack formation.

Facing Laibin, Hongtai fought very hard.

And Fred's request is to rely on continuous running to make up for the gap in strength.

Although Laibin has an advantage on the scene and the strength of the players is higher, but because it is a warm-up match, Laibin's players are not very active.

The final game ended with zero to zero.

And Li Xuan also failed to get the chance to play.

The second warm-up match was with Tianyu.

After Ge Tianyu was successfully promoted, he introduced several major shareholders and injected a large amount of funds.

Specially hired a well-known domestic coach Wu Jiaming to reorganize the team.

Forwards Li Chao and Chen Xin were both purged.

In the midfield, only Sui Wenhua and Wang Song were left.

On the back line, Xu Qing, Wang Song, Lin Feng, and Wu Xiang were left behind.

Goalkeeper Wang Fei was also retained.

On the forward line, Tianyu introduced three Brazilian forwards in one breath.

However, these three forwards are all older, about 30 years old.Although the strength has begun to decline, but the game experience is rich enough.

It is just right for Tianyu now.

In the midfield, Tianyu also introduced a midfielder from Portugal.

For the remaining positions, Tianyu was introduced from other domestic teams.There are players who can't play in the Super League, and there are also the main players of other Chinese Premier League teams.

The current Tianyu can be said to have completely changed.

Apart from the few familiar people, Li Xuan also felt very strange.

Before the game started, Li Xuan ran to say hello to everyone in Tianyu.

Due to Tianyu's big change of blood, the players are still not familiar with it, so the coordination and connection are quite unfamiliar.

In this warm-up match, Tianyu's main purpose is to adjust the formation, so those who can play are the main players in the official game.

Among the people Li Xuan knew well, only Xu Qing, Sui Wenhua and Wang Fei were able to make an appearance.

Li Xuan could only sit enviously on the bench and wait for the opportunity.

This time, Fred formed a four-three-three formation.This formation is strong enough both defensively and offensively, but the requirements for the midfield are also very high.

At the forefront are three foreign players.

Compared with Tianyu, who was a little chaotic, Hongtai played with great vigor.

In the first half, Hongtai scored three goals.

So at the beginning of the second half, Fred replaced all three foreign players in one go.

Li Xuan was also able to represent Hongtai for the first time.

However, Fred also changed the formation into a four-four-two, and Li Xuan was asked to play right forward.

This position happened to be Xu Qing.

Xu Qing seemed both excited and worried about defending Li Xuan.

Facing Hongtai's foreign aid in the first half, Xu Qing felt that he was exhausted.But still allowed the opponent to score three goals.

Although Li Xuan's strength is average, he belongs to the kind of player who can seize opportunities.

So Xu Qing cheered up and couldn't give Li Xuan a chance at all.

Li Xuan not only has to bear the responsibility of attacking, but also runs continuously in the frontcourt to oppress Tianyu's players who take the ball.

Naturally, Xu Qing was well aware of Li Xuan's shooting ability. When he saw Li Xuan approaching from a distance, he quickly passed the ball without giving Li Xuan a chance at all.

Although he has a good relationship with Li Xuan, Xu Qing didn't show any courtesy to Li Xuan.

Only ten minutes into the second half, Li Xuan already made six mistakes.Either Xu Qing got stuck and failed to catch the pass from his teammate, or he was cut off as soon as he got the ball.

Once the basic attack reaches Li Xuan, it can only be completely interrupted.

Li Xuan was also running out of breath.

And Fred was very dissatisfied with Li Xuan's performance.

Li Xuan's performance did not meet Fred's basic requirements for forwards.

Not to mention there are three foreign forwards, even among the domestic forwards, Li Xuan is also the bottom one.

On the eve of the competition, Assistant Chen went to Fred specifically and praised Li Xuan in front of Fred.

And claimed that Wu Qingyang was particularly optimistic about Li Xuan.

The meaning behind the words is to ask Fred to reuse Li Xuan.

Fred was very dissatisfied with Li Xuan's training status.

Recently, he specially read Li Xuan's information.

A young man who became a monk halfway and had only received professional training for about a year.

And it was also the top scorer in China B last season.

That's why the stubborn Fred was willing to give Li Xuan a chance.Maybe Li Xuan is a competitive player.

As a result, judging from the actual effect, this is an amateur player with very weak basic skills and very average physical fitness.The strength is not enough to gain a foothold in the professional league.

Fred is not familiar with the Second Division.But know that's a league that's pretty close to an amateur game.

Fred felt that he could fully understand why Li Xuan was able to win the top scorer at such a level.

Fred no longer paid attention to Li Xuan.

There can be six substitutions in the warm-up match.

Fred made adjustments to the midfield and continued to inspect the midfield players.
