Rakitic's transfer soap opera between Hamburg and Schalke 04 club did not last long.
When all media in European football think that Hamburg will definitely choose to give up, and Schalke 04’s deliberately tricky behavior has somewhat damaged the club’s image, but on January 10th, the official website of the two teams announced Rakiti at the same time. News of odd transfer to Hamburg!
After Schalke 04 announced the transfer details, the European media were dumbfounded!
Hamburg knows that Schalke 04 is difficult to raise prices, but still accepts it!
The transfer fee is 5 million euros, and the additional clause has a floating follow-up fee of 8 million euros.
And Hamburg also generously gave Rakitic club a maximum salary contract, and at the same time gave him a 4.5 million euros sky-high signing fee!
For Rakitic, from Schalke 04 to Hamburg, his annual salary income has risen a lot, and he also received 4.5 million euros at a time. The money is already absolutely satisfying. Then I can only wait and see if Rakitic will succeed in Hamburg.
Due to the Winter Window recruitment, Situ Yunbing did not allow the club to arrange a new aid appearance ceremony.
After the preparation for the second half of the season, Situ Yunbing had the most communication with Rakitic, De Braun, and Kanter. These three will be the main midfielder combination of Hamburg in the future.
The German media had a negative opinion after Hamburg official Xuan Rakitic joined. Some media questioned the rationality of Situ Yunbing's signing.
Under the premise that Hamburg already owns De Braun, will the arrival of Rakitic squeeze De Braun's space?
Situ Yunbing is not worried about this. He is not brave enough to use Harvey and Iniesta of Barcelona as a reference, nor does he use the configuration of Dortmund's midfield and technical talents as a basis for rebuttal. Rakitic, Who was his Croatian midfield teammate?
Modric!
Rakitic and Modric can coexist, why can't he and Debrune coexist?
This is obviously theoretically unsustainable.
Therefore, in the preparation for the second half of the season, Situ Yunbing was more serious about the effect of technical and tactical cooperation in training, and frequently communicated with De Braun and Rakitic. Players like Rakitic do not need to be too To instill ideas in many places, the organization player itself surpasses other role players in tactical understanding, and Rakitic's experience can also help him integrate well into Hamburg's technical and tactical system.
Hamburg is full of fighting spirit from top to bottom. After the reinforcements are added, it is an incentive for young players and the same for the coach!
In mid-January, the Bundesliga's second half of the league officially started, and Hamburg will be the guest to go to Schalke Stadium to challenge Rakitic's old club Schalke 04.
At the press conference before the game, Situ Yunbing faced most of the reporters' questions about Rakitic.
He ended this.
"I don’t know about Rakitic. He’s only 22 years old. He still has a lot of room for improvement. I think he is the player Hamburg can now find to bring a huge boost to the team. Maybe he won’t be a hero. It will be the one who supports the spine of Hamburg."
Indeed, Situ Yunbing never thought Rakitic would be the core of the team, but it is now the most important type of player in Hamburg.
In the midfield, he may not be able to send threats as frequently as De Braun, but he can always deliver the ball to the most suitable teammate with precision and high success rate. The former is more creative and the latter is more stable. High, this is a complement.
He doesn't have gorgeous movements and decorations, but he can give people a sense of being extremely down-to-earth.
At the same time, he also brings defensive stiffness on the basis of Hamburg's improved control of the midfield organization!
If today’s European football’s midfield organization is at the top of their benchmarks, Harvey and Pirlo, then Rakitic is obviously not the same type as them. Just as he needs Modric in the Croatian national team, in Hamburg, Although he is older than De Braun,
Just like Alonso's role in Real Madrid and the Spanish national team.
Magath's life is not easy, selling Rakitic will only make his life more difficult, but there is no way, the club wants to maximize the benefits, blackmailed Hamburg, did not expect success, riding a tiger can only collect money people.
For the upcoming game for Magath and Schalke 04 fans, the last thing they want to see is Rakitic's appearance in a Hamburg jersey.
But Situ Yunbing had no reason to spend money but did not enjoy it.
On the evening of January 15th, he went to Schalke Stadium with great voice.
There was light rain in the sky, and Situ Yunbing was wearing a navy coat to show the alternative fashion sense of the football coach. For Magath, he did not mean hostility, and now Schalke 04 is really not worthy Rival on the burger.
When the starting players of the two teams entered the field, Rakitic was so dazzling in the eyes of Schalke 04 fans!
He was still fighting for Schalke 04 a month ago, but he became an enemy a month later!
Situ Yunbing could have hidden Rakitic to avoid putting too much pressure on him, but Situ Yunbing knew that from the second half of the season, he had no retreat and he would shrink his tolerance. Now it is really necessary for the team to provide record protection!
Stress is a part of growth. Seki Rakitic will be more humane, but it is also an escape.
Withstanding the pressure is also a temper to him.
"Good evening, everyone, after the winter break, the second half of the Bundesliga battle kicked off today!
In the winter transfer market, the most sensational is the Schalke 04 midfielder Rakitic's transfer to Hamburg. The reason why this transfer is interesting is mainly because Schalke 04 priced the foreign clubs. Tic's 2 million euros, but the quotation of Hamburg with a price of 5 million euros, and after the first consultation, he regretted adding a floating clause of 8 million euros. When everyone is not optimistic about this transfer, Hamburg fully accepted In view of the lack of integrity of Schalke 04, Rakitic eventually transferred to Hamburg, and today he played to represent Hamburg to challenge Schalke 04!
Although Schalke 04, who is at home today, has reached the top 16 in the UEFA Champions League, they basically bid farewell to the European War next season. I don’t know if Magath’s team has lost faith in the league. They will Leave more energy on the European arena.
Hamburger led by Stuart Yunbing got a good second place at the end of the first half of the league, only 4 points behind Dortmund. They introduced Rakitic and improved their midfield strength. The champion is very ambitious. I don't know if they can maintain the high level of the first half of the season.
Introduce today's starting lineup.
Schalke 04 started with a 442 formation today.
Goalkeeper: Neuer.
Guards: Hevedes, Matip, Metzelder, Schmidz.
Midfielders: Raul, Moritz, Draxler, Farfan.
Forwards: Huntelaar, Edu.
Magath's platoon formation is too aggressive, but it can't help worrying about Schalke 04's defense. It can even be said that Schalke 04 is playing a 424 formation!
The starting point for Hamburg is 433.
Goalkeeper: Navas.
Guards: Azpilicueta, Matheson, Boateng, Matuidi.
Midfielders: Rakitic, Kanter, De Braun.
Forwards: Elia, Gretzman, Royce.
Today Situ Yunbing's starting talent is also very bold, Kanter's task on the waistline is not easy!
Well, the game starts immediately, let us look forward to what kind of spark will be played by the two teams tonight!"
After Rakitic left, Magath went to the youth team for a lap, and then took Drachler, who was only 17 years old, to the first team!
If Situ Yunbing introduced Navas, Kanter and Van Dijk before the season, these players who were either in the desert league or playing for the amateur team are crazy, then Magath is really not much compared to Situ Yunbing Let.
Not only was Draxler younger, he was directly used as a starter, and he faced second place in the standings!
What can Situ Yunbing say?
Can only envy!
Schalke 04's resources are really enviable, but it is such a good hand, but Magath is playing poorly.
The game officially started in the cold wind and rain. Schalke 04 tried to suppress Hamburg with a strong attack from the beginning. Their staffing is obviously better at attacking!
Rakitic gestured to Kanter from the start and asked him to help the defender. He stayed in the middle to guard against Draxler's attack.
He knows Schalke 04 better than any player in Hamburg. Today, the two midfield players of Schalke 04, Moritz is responsible for defense. Draxler may also rush to assist outside the midfield organization, but pull Kitic is confident to limit the young Schalke 04 player in his own half.
Kanter actively assisted the defense to help Azpilicueta finish the attack on Farfan. Farfan did not force a breakthrough, but chose to knock the ball back to the assist Schmidz, who directly started Pass the ball to the penalty area.
Huntelaar and Edu are both strong centers, but because the passing distance is too long, the Hamburg defender has enough time to adjust the reaction, and Boateng easily headered the ball.
Backcourt is the world of Hamburg, Schalke 04 has no personnel to come here to harass Hamburg's offensive and defensive conversion.
Magath didn’t know whether he was desperate or not to steal a new meal. Anyway, he couldn’t understand the employment and platoon formation of Situ Yunbing today. He didn’t see Schalke’s determination to attack 04, but he didn’t understand the horse. Gatt This is like another performance of Guardiola's pursuit of ultimate control almost crazy.
Because it is clear that Schalke 04 is unable to compete with Hamburg in the midfield.
Rakitic and De Blaunet organized the attack smoothly and smoothly to the frontcourt. Draxler stepped forward and had a little inexperience. He was very aggressive but inefficient.
When De Braunie reached the front of the penalty area to meet Rakitic's pass, he faked the fax and smeared Moritz, and then sent a diagonal plug to send the ball to Metzel. Behind Germany, Gretzman kicked a cold shot forward and the football went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal!
Gretzman was ready to celebrate, but Neuer made him stunned and swept the ball out of the bottom line!
Well, perhaps behind the madness of Magath is absolute confidence in Neuer, and Neuer is indeed a young goalkeeper who can bring confidence to the team and the coach!
