Chapter 2278 - 581: Unbreakable Alliance

Chapter 2278: Chapter 581: Unbreakable Alliance

Even if you don’t know the details, you can understand how incompatible a pivot striker is with ground cooperation.

On the way to the stadium on the bus, Huang Kaiwen was still guessing Löw’s starting lineup.

He didn’t know whether Danilo’s Rule had succeeded.

Currently, the most threatening player on the German team is the bulldog, Müller.

As for Toni Kroos, there’s no need to say more; his tactical role doesn’t match his status in the team at all.

In Löw’s national team, Kroos is an important part.

However, he’s already deeply offended the Bayern Gang before, so he definitely won’t be liked in the national team.

Huang Kaiwen feels that for this German lineup, having the bulldog play wide and Müller in the center is best.

The bulldog plays very well in the wide attacking midfield role for Arsenal.

But Löw has always made Müller play wide and do Ribery’s work, so Müller struggles with it.

After the bus arrived at the stadium, Huang Kaiwen immediately led the players to the locker room.

Cocu reminded: "You should go to the press conference, Kevin."

"I know."

Huang Kaiwen checked his watch then led Van Bommel to the press conference site.

Van Bommel said: "If I see Lahm later, it’ll feel just like the UEFA Champions League final."

"That’s for the best, we can win it."

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

"But the Netherlands team doesn’t have Kevin."

Van Bommel shook his head and said.

The two entered the press room, and the reporters immediately became restless.

As the two moved.

The reporters held up their recorders and fired their questions.

"Kevin, is Ten Hag the next coach for Milan?"

"Do you think Kroos has been treated differently?"

"De Boer claims he’s not the mole, do you believe that?"

"Who is the most threatening player on the German team, Kevin?"

"..."

Huang Kaiwen went up to the stage, pulled out a tissue to wipe a chair, and only sat down upon seeing the tissue stayed white.

Löw chuckled, having not expected this young man to have a cleanliness obsession, subconsciously inserting his finger into his mouth.

It made Huang Kaiwen’s heart tremble uncontrollably.

He made up his mind to end the press conference early today.

He definitely didn’t want to get Löw’s boogers on his suit.

Huang Kaiwen directly grabbed the microphone and said: "Mr. Löw is a coach I respect greatly, Eric Ten Hag is indeed one of our considerations, Mr. Gagliani has already discussed this with me. Eric and Mr. Löw both have expectations regarding ground cooperation, which I believe aligns with the laws of football."

"But does a youth coach from Twente have the qualifications to coach a giant club like AC Milan?"

Huang Kaiwen nodded and said: "Many coaches have gone directly from the youth team to the first team; Milan’s previous head coach Guardiola was like this. He was a great coach, and I regret his departure very much."

"Do you mean Ten Hag is similar to Guardiola?"

The reporter followed up.

"No, no, no, I think Eric Ten Hag is more similar to Mr. Löw. Mr. Guardiola has a unique football philosophy, which cannot be compared. Like how some coaches favor three defenders, while others prefer four or five." Huang Kaiwen said.

"Speak about De Boer’s matter; ’The Sun newspaper’ said the recording was obtained from him."

Huang Kaiwen said: "I trust Mr. De Boer’s character, but I don’t know about this matter. If ’The Sun newspaper’ has evidence, they should present it. If they have no evidence, then Mr. De Boer should be innocent."

"Then do you think Kroos has been treated differently? His previous remarks have angered some German players."

Huang Kaiwen nodded and said: "Mr. Löw will be responsible for his own starting lineup, and others just need to watch. You can’t guess other coaches’ intents, so it’s best to keep quiet."

Huang Kaiwen’s statement made Löw quite happy.

He quickly forgot he was in the locker room scene, inserting his index finger into his nostril to dig around.

It made Huang Kaiwen can’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

He promptly said: "Every German player is very threatening, and now I have to return to the locker room for final preparations. You can ask Mr. Löw about some topics you’re interested in."

Seeing Huang Kaiwen stand, Van Bommel immediately followed him out.

He curiously asked: "Was there a problem with today’s press conference?"

"No, do you have gloves?"

Huang Kaiwen asked.

"No." Van Bommel said.

Huang Kaiwen returned to the locker room and immediately asked Cocu to find him a pair of gloves.

Even without a cleanliness obsession, a normal person wouldn’t want to shake hands with someone who’s just dug in their nose.

Löw is fine everywhere, except he’s not very hygienic.

...

"The game is about to start, and the players from both sides follow the referee team onto the field."

"Yes, the match between the Netherlands and Germany draws much attention, as these are two big favorites in this tournament."

"Today’s starting lineups from both sides have surprised us, and of course, Huang Kaiwen serving as the interim coach for the Netherlands was a shock."

"Right, let’s first take a look at the starting lineups for both sides."
