Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 655 Ten Hach's Second Consultation, Porto Analysis Report

Chapter 655 Ten Hach's Second Inquiry, Porto Analysis Report

[Passing score 97!]

[Just take the game data with a grain of salt... Damn, GGBond is number one, so I have to clarify the accuracy of FIFA; it is indeed a 1:1 scale replica of reality.]

I hereby declare Dortmund invincible.

Haaland is really amazing, but he can't head the ball well, otherwise he could also score 90+ points, just like Mbappe.

[What's there to be afraid of? My master will directly train Majin Buu and then easily suppress Bappe.]

The Munich Evening News' front-page headline reads: "TY is leading the race for FIFA World Player of the Year and has very likely already been notified of the award."

"You've already won an award?"

Haaland looked at Tang Ye in front of him, who was holding his head in his hands: "No..."

Tang Ye glanced at Haaland's phone and browsed through the latest news in the Munich Evening News: "Oh, this newspaper is full of hype. Usually, they announce the winners five days in advance. It's still early; they can't possibly notify us of the award yet."

"But they're all the same."

Haaland nodded slightly: "Neither Lewandowski nor Messi can compete with you, right?"

"Ha ha!"

Tang Ye punched Haaland in the arm.

……

The Guardian's front-page headline: Premier League domestic viewership down 2.7%, global viewership down 12.6%.

"If this viewership rating continues until the end of the season, the broadcast revenue share for the last-placed team in the Premier League this season will drop below 1 million euros."

The Sun's front-page headline reads: "UKAD (British Anti-Doping Agency) will hold a members' meeting in January of the following year to reconsider issues related to methylphenidate."

"Of course, this has nothing to do with the Premier League's viewership ratings," the UAKD chairman replied in an interview with The Sun.

The UK Anti-Doping Agency is indeed a bit too strict with psychotropic drugs, especially regarding proof of drug uniqueness.

In short, the purpose of this UAKD committee is to align itself with international standards.

Most fans are aware of the actual situation; UKAD is probably under pressure from the British old money.

Capitalists want money. If you prevent capitalists from making money, you'll be punished.

UAKD is now in the same situation as the AFC before it, with no way to deal with the situation, but still wanting to protect its dignity.

……

The time comes on June 12th.

Dortmund lost 0-2 to Juventus away from home, thus losing their top spot in the group.

The match between Chelsea and Istanbul next door is not over yet, but because of Dortmund's loss, Chelsea has already secured first place in the group.

The two teams that advanced to the knockout stage from Group D are: seeded Chelsea and unseeded Borussia Dortmund.

"Fuck!"

Reus cursed in the locker room, "If I'd known we couldn't win today, I wouldn't have played so hard against Chelsea."

Haaland shook his head, touched his ankle, and looked somewhat guilty.

Dortmund's loss to Juventus today is partly due to Dortmund's poor shooting performance; they took far too many shots that went high and wide.

Moreover, at his worst, he injured his ankle with a tackle, and it's estimated that he will miss several games in the coming days.

Eskeriva sat next to Tang Ye with a worried expression.

Dortmund already lacked competitiveness in the Champions League, and now they have to qualify as an unseeded team, which will undoubtedly bring great difficulties to the team.

That's fucking ridiculous.

Will Dortmund be eliminated in the round of 16?
Marty immediately understood what Escriva was thinking and reassured him in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It's okay, we'll know the results after the draw."

"……Um"

Eskeriva sighed.

Although Dortmund's goals this season do not include the Champions League ranking, Escriva is the kind of person who likes to think about a lot of things.

If Dortmund can reach the Champions League quarterfinals, the prize money they receive in the Champions League will be enough to cover their expenses for loaning Tang Ye.

In this way, even if Dortmund doesn't achieve results that satisfy the fans, Eskrima won't be criticized by the fans for his signings.

At the very least, the team must break even; this is Eskeriva's minimum requirement for the team.

……

Dongqiudi Match Report: Dortmund lost 0-2 to Juventus away from home. Haaland's offside goal was disallowed and he was forced to leave the game due to injury. Dortmund secured second place in their group and qualified for the knockout stage. (137242 comments)

Dortmund official statement: Haaland suffers ankle injury and is expected to be out for at least 2 weeks.

Three defenders is a very good tactic.

However, Dortmund did not expect that the three-man defense would not work for Juventus, and coupled with Haaland's poor form, this led to the tragedy.

However, it wasn't a big problem. Four days later, in the Bundesliga match against Stuttgart, Dortmund turned the tide with a 3-1 victory, firmly securing their position at the top of the Bundesliga.

It seems that Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig are the only teams in the Bundesliga that currently have a chance to manage Dortmund.

Bayern fans just hope their team and Leipzig can step up and beat Dortmund twice in a row so they can reclaim their position.

or……

Just like Manchester United in the 18-19 season, opening up a second battleground in the Champions League led to a decline in the competitiveness of the league!
Dongqiudi pinned post: 23 hours until the draw for the 20-21 UEFA Champions League knockout stage.

Seeded teams: Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain.

Unseeded teams: Atletico Madrid, Borussia Mönchengladbach, Porto, Borussia Dortmund, Sevilla, Lazio, RB Leipzig, Shakhtar Donetsk.

All 16 teams have been determined.

As a Bundesliga team, Dortmund has a total of 7 potential opponents due to the rule of avoiding teams from the same league in the round of 16.

This means Dortmund could face any of the seeded teams except Bayern Munich!
A quick glance reveals that this season's Champions League is incredibly intense.

With four Premier League teams plus Real Madrid and Barcelona, any non-seeded team would be slapped in the face by any of their opponents.

"This one……"

Reus asked Tang Ye which opponent he thought the team would face, a question that stumped Tang Ye.

All eight teams are super powerhouses, what the hell is going to happen?

"Anyway, Chelsea can't afford to lose. It would be very difficult to play them again; Chelsea is too strong."

Tang Ye slowly said, "Manchester City and Liverpool aren't good either; we probably can't beat them."

"Barcelona and Real Madrid, oh... they're established powerhouses, let's just forget about them."

"Manchester United won't work either. We'll be in trouble if we play against them. Rodri and De Jong will have me and Bellingham under control."

"Paris, well, never mind Paris."

"And then there's still..."

What's left?

Tang Ye looked up at Haaland, who reminded him, "There's still Bayern left."

"Oh, Bayern Munich..."

Tang Ye pondered.

We didn't get drawn against Bayern, so we avoided it.

Reus reminded him.

"Oh, yes, that's it..."

Tang Ye counted on his fingers.

Remove the four Premier League giants, remove Real Madrid and Barcelona, and remove Bayern Munich.

Remove Barcelona from the list.

Yes, very okay.

As an unseeded team, Dortmund had no right to a favorable draw.

"We should put one league match aside and then focus on beating Juventus."

Tang Ye sighed and leaned back on the sofa.

But since it has already happened, there's nothing we can do but tough it out.

We'll find out the result after tomorrow's game!
While the Dortmund players were chatting, Tang Ye felt a vibration in his pocket, so he took out his phone.

Upon discovering that the message was from Ten Hah, Tang Ye replied.

However, Ten Hah wanted Tang Ye to make a phone call, so Tang Ye had to temporarily say goodbye to his teammates in the room.

"..."

"Hey, Mr. Eric?"

"Oh, Tom!"

After successfully connecting with Tang Ye on the phone, Ten Hag gave Van der Gach a look in the office. The latter leaned expectantly on the desk, staring at the phone in Ten Hag's hand. "Tom, congratulations on winning another match. That FIFA World Player of the Year award should be no problem either. I'm congratulating you in advance."

Tang Ye is quite cautious about the FIFA World Player of the Year award, as he has not yet been notified of the award, so he can only tell Ten Hag not to rush.

It would be terrible if I didn't win the award in the end.

The two briefly discussed the FIFA World Player of the Year award, after which Ten Hag gradually steered the conversation toward Manchester United.

"Tom, you've probably watched our recent matches, right? Do you... um, do you have any good suggestions for us?"

"I've seen it."

"but……"

Tang Ye sat down in the stands of the training field, his brows furrowed.

He felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was strange.

“Mr. Eric…am I, well, a spy?”

"..."

"No! How could that be! No, this is normal."

Ten Hach advised, "What spy? A spy is someone who steals intelligence. I didn't ask you for Dot's information, did I?"

"Um"

"Yes, not only did I not ask you for Dortmund's information, I also sent you Manchester United's information. Here, I've already sent it; you should have received it in your email."

Ten Hag is very cunning. In order to help Tang Ye better understand the current situation of Manchester United and give advice, he immediately threw over the information on Manchester United's coaching staff this season without saying a word.

"Well... Mr. Eric, what if you draw us in the round of 16?"

"No, that won't happen. Besides, we're discussing the present; the current information is useless for next year's knockout stage."

Ten Hag is right; tactical data for top teams is time-sensitive.

Manchester United's data from December will not be applicable to the Champions League Round of 16 in February next year.

Tang Ye nodded slightly: "Then Mr. Eric...aren't you becoming a spy by doing this?"

"No, no, no, that's wrong. I'm not a spy. A spy is someone who leaks secrets. I was sure you would leak the secret, so I gave it to you. That means I'm not a spy."

Ten Hah's words were a bit convoluted, and Tang Ye was stunned for a moment, his brain twisted in a knot.

"Okay, Mr. Eric, I'll take a quick look when I get home, but I'm not a coach, I haven't studied coaching at all."

"Yes, so I'll revise your suggestion, and then there won't be any problems."

Ten Hah said excitedly that the two chatted for a while longer before hanging up.

As soon as the call ended, Ten Hah revealed a sinister smile, like a villainous boss from an animated film.

Hey!

Eskeriva is a complete idiot.

"Dortmund spent 7500 million, thinking that would be enough to get Tom, but what they didn't know was that Tom's abilities weren't limited to the field."

"hiss……"

Van der Gach swallowed hard, his upper body involuntarily leaning back.

Ten Hach is absolutely terrifying!

Based on Van der Gaghe's understanding of Ten Hag, it's highly likely that the Manchester United manager will approach the management about this matter and demonstrate his abilities.

By loaning out Tang Ye for 7500 million euros, they actually retained 1500 million euros in tactical value.

We don't know how much Dortmund lost, but Manchester United definitely made a profit.

While waiting for Tang Ye to send an email, Ten Hag and Van der Gaghe began to analyze Manchester United's current situation.

Second in the league and first in the Champions League group, things seem pretty good, but statistics show that Manchester United's competitiveness is slowly declining.

They need to perform better.

Our goal is a three-peat in the Premier League, we absolutely have to achieve it!
……

In the afternoon, during an intra-team scrimmage, Tang Ye and Sancho collided and both had to leave the field and sit down.

It's not a big deal, but given Dortmund's current situation, they have to be careful when things happen, or they might run into trouble.

Tang Ye put on a down jacket and leaned back in the chair behind him.

Sancho was curious about Tang Ye's behavior of sitting on the floor instead of sitting on a chair, but he didn't ask any further questions.

Perhaps this is what geniuses are like.

"Jingle Bell!"

Tang Ye answered a phone call: "Okay, thank you, sure... just email me the process."

After hanging up the phone, Escriva, Martí, and the substitute players all looked at Tang Ye.

Eskeriva asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Ye braced his left hand on the grass and raised his right hand, giving a thumbs-up: "World Footballer of the Year"

"Wow"

"Ha ha!"

……

Dongqiudi pinned post: The draw for the 20-21 UEFA Champions League knockout stage is underway.

CCTV broadcast the draw ceremony live, and the guest drew Manchester United as the first ball drawn.

Fans in China held their breath.

Could it be a battle between the two saints?

Porto

call……

so close!

Chinese fans and Dortmund fans breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Manchester United has become much weaker this season, they are still a team that Dortmund, a team with a peculiar combination of styles, can't beat.

Inside the Dortmund training ground, the players raised their hands, with Tang Ye naturally being the happiest among them.

At the other Carrington base, Ten Hach opened his folder containing analysis data about Porto and then sent it directly to Tang Ye.

"..."

Van der Gach, standing to the side, just watched him.

"What's wrong?"

Ten Hag was puzzled: "It's just analyzing data, asking him to take a look is just asking, it's not like we're asking him to teach us how to beat Porto."

"Yes, I understand, Eric. I'll always be on your side."

……

Pinned post: The Champions League Round of 16 draw results are out.

Manchester United vs. Porto.

Dortmund vs. Paris Saint-Germain.

Real Madrid vs. Manchester City.

Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea.

……

Since none of the seeded teams are weak, fans have no idea what to say about the draw results.

Is playing Paris Saint-Germain a good thing or a bad thing?
Of course it's bad.

But if you look at the other seeded teams, then take a look at the others.

If you say now that playing against Paris is bad, then that's not necessarily true.
