Vol 2 Chapter 20: Obstacles to becoming a top midfielder

　　Zhou Tiancheng's two combos in a short period of time reversed the situation on the field instantly, so that the Menxing U19 players were staring at Zhou Tiancheng dumbly, and there was a trance in their heads.
　　Compared to Zhou Tiancheng's skin color, what they want to ask more is that he really... is a defender? !
　　 In their cognition, Zhou Tiancheng's two hands are completely the front waist and even the forward's line!
Even Marin, the number one star on the opposite side, showed confusion and suspicion. The two armies confronted each other. In fact, to destroy the opponent's resistance did not necessarily require a vigorous and devastating offensive. Zhou Tiancheng's two subordinates were not so powerful on the surface, but This way of reversing beyond normal cognition really makes the other party's mentality collapse instantly.
　　 For Schalke U19, the second half turned into a lead to play a downwind. Naturally, with their three national championships, it was as simple as eating and drinking.
　　 Both teams did not score in the second half, Schalke U19 finally got the start of the new season 2:1. Zhou Tiancheng was elected the official best player of the game.
　　Although Jiang Hao sat down on the bench for the whole game, he was the first to give a high-five to Zhou Tiancheng enthusiastically. Zhou Tiancheng could only helplessly smile at Jiang Hao's character. Anyway, he asked himself if he watched a whole free game on the bench like Jiang Hao, it was absolutely impossible to show his expression.
　　 The first round of the game crossed a hard stubble, and the next five rounds of Schalke U19 opponents will be very easy, respectively against Leverkusen, Oberhausen, SV Libistad and Waldenshut. They are all echelons ranked in the Western Division-the Leverkusen U19 echelon's strength does not match the strength of their first team. In fact, there are still some youth training achievements in the history of this club, but the strange thing is that their youth training has been broken in the past two years, and the overall strength of school-age players has declined seriously. They have ranked fourth in the Western Division for two consecutive seasons...but it is reciprocal! So they are no longer in Schalke's strong enemy plan.
　　Of course, the coaching staff will not deliberately underestimate any opponent, but according to the relevant information collected before the game, the strength of this Leverkusen U19 is indeed not to be afraid. To determine whether a youth echelon is strong, an important criterion is to see how many players are selected for the national teams at all levels. Measured by this standard, no player in Leverkusen U19 has a German national team resume. Obviously this team is still the same as the previous two years, it is difficult to pose a threat to Schalke 04.
　　 However, due to the suspension of the main midfielder Japa this round, Schalke U19 faced a very real problem. Elgart considered again and again, or decided to advance the position of Zhou Tiancheng in advance in actual combat. The team cannot miss the thickness of the midfield.
In fact, Elgart was a bit worried. Since Zhou Tiancheng was asked to change his position, it was not difficult for him to guess the team’s needs. He had already made preparations to play as a midfielder. The position premise is closer to the opponent’s penalty area. Actually Shang is in line with his wishes.
In the second round of the Western Conference of the Youth League, Schalke returned to face Leverkusen at the home. Elgart continued to choose 4-3-3 in the formation of the field. Zhou Tiancheng became the key to connecting the back line and the avant-garde line. hub.
The first contact with the new position, Zhou Tiancheng's performance is not as dazzling as when he hit the defender, but it is also commendable. Because Schalke's U19 strength is dominant overall, he has been suppressing the opponent on the scene, Leverku Mori didn’t attack the dangerous zone very much. Zhou Tian became one of the few players who played very efficiently. Not only did he successfully isolate the two central defenders from threats, but also attacked with a defense to steal the ball. Directly passing the ball to the teammates brings a chance to fight back, which truly reflects the offensive and defensive integration. Zhou Tiancheng's leading level in consciousness will naturally not be neglected by Elgett off the court. However, in the whole game, Elgett did not stretch out the whole process.

　　 "Week, how do you feel about trying the new position for the first time?"
　　 "Alright, just... too tired." Zhou Tiancheng gasped with his mouth wide open and said intermittently.
　　Although his duties are all defense, Zhou Tiancheng only realized that the defensive requirements of the midfielder and the central defender are not the same thing.
　　The central defender requires quick and decisive removal of threats. To a certain extent, the sense of defensive position and timing is more important than physical fitness. But the lower back is different, this position is almost full of physical confrontation. The first time he hit midfielder, Zhou Tiancheng's weaknesses in his "telephone pole" figure were all exposed. Although with his superior consciousness, the overall performance is excellent, but he feels very tired. Most of the physical energy is spent on confrontation with the body, and Zhou Tiancheng found an embarrassing fact: even if he is not as tall as his opponent, as long as he is squeezed with his upper body strength, Zhou Tiancheng wants to make the next technical action , Will be very strenuous.
　　 He just said that tired, in addition to physical energy consumption, there is a feeling that I have never been able to do so. The physical confrontation, compared with professionally trained players, the gap is not a star.
　　Elget waited for him to take a breath, and said to him: "Without me, you feel the most authentic, do you feel you can't carry each other, even if UU reads www.uukanshu.com, it's embarrassing even if it gets stuck?"
　　 Zhou Tiancheng nodded.
"Actually, there is really no problem with your consciousness and position selection, so you can learn from your selection experience of playing as a defender. With your basic skills, you will be an excellent midfielder in the future. However, I think this is not yours. The upper limit, you are very promising to become a top player, but as you can see, your physical fitness is the biggest obstacle. The height of the top midfielder can be insufficient, but it must not weaken the strength and confrontation, French midfielder Makelele is very good The coaching staff has specially developed a set of intensive training programs to help you improve your physical fitness. If you want, from today on you need to receive the small stove of Rincon (physical trainer) in addition to normal training until He thinks you can meet the standard."
　　Zhou Tiancheng inevitably has some doubts: "I naturally have no problem, as long as I can become stronger, I don't care about the bitterness, but is it really effective? I have never had this foundation before."
　　Elgett smiled: "Trust our professionalism, you will see the effect slowly in the future."
　　 The team's joint training ended in the afternoon, and Zhou Tiancheng immediately came to the fitness trainer's hut.
Lin Kong was a little surprised: "Good afternoon, Zhou. I thought you wouldn't come. I didn't expect you to be so positive. You made me feel a little bit more fond of Chinese players...how, what do you mean, do we start work today? ?"
　　 "Is it possible?" Zhou Tiancheng asked.
　　 Lin Kong smiled happily: "Well, of course! But this process, I hope you can stick to it. Since you have chosen, you must stick to the end so that you can benefit for a long time."
　　 "No problem, I am sure, you can rest assured."
　　While Zhou Tiancheng had a ticket in his mouth, he was actually a little bit guilty about the devil training that the Germans were famous for...
