On September 15, after defeating Stuttgart in an away game, the team had no league games on the weekend due to the national team match day.
For the wealthy European clubs, the FIFA virus is one of the things they hate very much.
Countless wealthy teams are almost half empty. Almost all the big-name stars in their teams are the main players of various national teams, and it is their duty to play for the country.
This weekend, countless top managers are doing one thing - praying.
I pray that my players can return safely from the national team.
However, Yunsheng has almost no such problem. There are not many Chinese players in the Cottbus team, so most of the players are still in the team.
During the national team competition on the weekend, Yunsheng gave the first team two days off, and everyone was very happy.
Although there are not many international players in the team, there are still a few players that Yun Sheng is very concerned about.
Among them are two Chinese internationals-Shao Jiayi and Li Tie.
The Chinese team has just finished playing in the Asian Cup this summer, and the World Cup Asian qualifiers have not yet started, so the Chinese team only has a warm-up match.
However, because of the long distance, Yun Sheng was most worried about traveling long distances. Even if there are no injuries, the physical exertion of just a few players is huge.
There is no league game this weekend, but there will be a double match in the next week, which will also be a huge test for a team like Cottbus with a weak bench.
The only thing that made Yun Sheng happy was that Cassano was discharged from the hospital.
Although Adriano looked stronger, he did not expect Cassano to recover faster than him. It seems that he can catch up with the game in the middle of next week, which makes Yun Sheng very happy.
However, Adriano has recovered well and should be able to play in next weekend's game.
Sauer has recovered well from his injury and is now able to train with the ball. There is no problem in playing in the next game.
Yu Hai also recovered quickly. Originally the doctor thought he would need to rest for half a month, but he didn't expect that he recovered in about ten days.
Despite this, Yunsheng still wanted to be on the safe side and let him continue to rest in the next game and give him another chance to play in the seventh round of the league.
The worst thing about the team right now is Bandrovski. His injury is the most serious and he will be off the court for a long time.
There was no game this weekend. Although Yun Sheng seemed very relaxed, he was still under great psychological pressure. During the two-day holiday, Yun Sheng spent most of his time at the club.
The club's tactical conference room was very well organized. Yun Sheng locked himself in the room, carefully studying the tactics of his opponent Wolfsburg, and thinking about the arrangements for the next game.
In the tactical conference room, Yun Sheng unexpectedly saw an acquaintance.
"Sandel, why are you here?" Yun Sheng was watching the Wolfsburg game video. Suddenly the door opened and Sandel pushed the door open and entered the house.
Sandel didn't expect Yunsheng to be in the room, and he was a little surprised: "Isn't it a day off today? Why are you here?"
Yun Sheng shrugged: "I'm alone and it's not interesting to be at home. It's better to study tactical information here. What about you, why don't you stay at home with your wife and children?"
"They went to participate in a parent-child activity. Some of my best friends brought their children with them. They thought I was in the way, so I came here." Sandel sat down on the chair next to him.
Yun Sheng pointed to the video on the screen: "Since we are here, let's discuss Wolfsburg's tactics together."
Sandel snorted: "I don't want to talk to you. I'm just strolling around. Do you want to arrange for me to work overtime?"
Yun Sheng was helpless: "Okay, I won't discuss it with you anymore, I'll watch the video myself, okay?"
Sandel: "What do you mean? After winning five games, you look down on me, right? You don't want to discuss tactics with me anymore?"
Yun Sheng: "What exactly do you want from me..."
The Wolfsburg match video was playing on the projection screen, and no one in the room spoke anymore.
Yun Sheng felt that talking to Sandel was really tiring, so he ignored him and concentrated on watching the video.
What is playing in the video at this time is the last Bundesliga match, Wolfsburg's home game against Karlsruhe.
In this game, Wolfsburg defeated its opponent 4-1, consolidating its third place in the league.
They played smoothly in the game. Although they played a 4-4-2 with a balanced offense and defense, their offensive power was definitely top-notch.
Half an hour later, the game video was finished.
Yun Sheng closed his laptop and turned on the light, and the room suddenly lit up.
"Wolfsburg, it's hard to fight..." Yun Sheng said slowly.
Sandel, who had been silent next to him, whispered: "This season, the team I least want to face is Wolfsburg."
"Oh?" Yun Sheng was stunned, "Why?"
Sandel took a long breath and slowly said a few words: "Because of these two guys."
Although Sandel didn't say their names, Yun Sheng understood them.
He was talking about Radu and Monteanu.
In the thrilling relegation journey last season, Radu and Monteanu jointly contributed 25 goals to the team and were the absolute contributors to Cottbus's relegation.
But in the past summer, both of them switched to Wolfsburg, achieving a leap from a relegation team to a wealthy club.
In fact, this kind of transfer is very common in international football. It is normal for players to show their ability and be spotted by strong teams and then poach them.
But Sandel never accepted it.
Although Yun Sheng was very familiar with the two of them, compared to Sandel's relationship with them, it was still far behind.
It can be said that these two people were trained by Sandel.
From being a standout player in the Bundesliga 2 to relegation heroes in the Bundesliga, Sandel watched the two of them reach their current position step by step.
In the Wolfsburg team this season, the two have become the absolute main force and core of the offense.
In five games, the forwards scored 6 goals and provided 4 assists. Their performance was even better than last season.
But the better they performed, the more heartbroken Sandel became.
Although Yun Sheng was sitting next to him, Sandel seemed to be talking to himself.
"Recently, I often watch Wolfsburg games, and they have almost become my second home team. I am not interested in these guys wearing green jerseys, nor do I care about their scores or rankings. The only ones I want to see are Radu and Monteanu.”
"These two guys came from Cottbus! They have been here since the Bundesliga 2 period, from the time when I took over Cottbus. We entered the Bundesliga together and successfully avoided relegation together. I watched helplessly. They are getting better and better and making rapid progress, I was so happy at that time.”
"But I didn't expect that when we were ambitious and wanted to achieve a breakthrough, they left Cottbus. Even now, I feel very uncomfortable. Yunsheng, why do you think they left me and the team?"
