"Do you want to be the king of football?"
"Yes!"
Su Dong embarks on a journey to become the king of football!
Chapter 698: Brother, where is the trust?
The adjustment of Bayern's top management did not have much impact on the team.
This is also a major feature of Bayern's management.
From Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, Hoeness, to the current sports director Neilinger, all of them are former Bayern players and are very familiar with the players. Therefore, the players trust them more and can easily accept this change in position.
Trust and professionalism, these are probably the things Su Dong has felt most deeply during his years playing for Bayern.
For example, the team bus.
Bayern's first team has two buses in use, which are exactly the same from appearance to layout.
Whether the team is at home or away, they all ride on their own buses, with familiar drivers and staff, even in the Champions League final.
It is actually not easy to achieve this, and it even requires greater investment.
Not to mention anything else, for every away game, the bus has to depart a few days in advance, and travel expenses are a huge amount.
Not to mention the training equipment, food, drinking water, etc. that the team needs to carry after setting off in advance. These seem to be insignificant details, and they are not even reported by the media and fans at all, but the investment is huge.
Such huge investment is only to achieve one goal, which is to ensure that even when the players go to away games, they will sit in familiar buses and meet familiar people, so as to minimize the sense of unfamiliarity in away games.
This is just a small detail. Bayern and Sebena Street are full of such details.
There is only one goal, which is to make the players trust the club through the most professional services.
Without trust, how can we perform at our best in the game? A group of mercenaries can win big when things are going well, but they will fall apart when things go against them.
This is true in the details, and it is also true at the top level, in the club's leadership.
Every director on the board of directors is a veteran Bayern fan with more than ten years or even decades of history. They may not be engaged in the football industry, but they understand football and the rules of football.
In recent years, many fans have been asking, why is Bayern so strong? The reason is simple, professionalism!
They may be stingy and unwilling to spend money, but when it comes to football, among all the European giants, who can be more professional than Bayern? Who can stick to their original intentions like Bayern?
If nothing else, the ticket prices for Bayern's home games are enough to make all the top teams in Europe flee in fear.
During the three years at Bayern, Su Dong has truly witnessed the professionalism of Europe's top professional clubs!
As for whether Bayern will be reorganized after Nelinger takes over?
These are business strategy issues, and Su Dong would never consider things that are beyond his scope of thinking.
During this period, he and Bayern reached a kind of tacit understanding and neither of them discussed contract renewal.
The whole world knows that Su Dong’s contract only has half a year left.
Who knows what it will be like in half a year?

On November 22, Bayern hosted their opponent in the 13th round of the Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen.
This is also a game that has attracted much attention in German football.
With the suicide of Robert Enke, the competition for the number one goalkeeper of the German national team has become increasingly fierce.
According to seniority, Leverkusen goalkeeper Adler must be ranked first. In fact, he is now the number one goalkeeper of the German national team, but Bayern's Neuer has also performed very well, especially after joining Bayern. Last season's treble is his biggest bargaining chip.
As we all know, Bayern's goalkeeper has always been the main goalkeeper of the national team, and Neuer is also very popular.
After all, in the Bundesliga, only giants like Bayern can allow goalkeepers to appear in major competitions such as the Champions League, especially the Champions League final, and accumulate sufficient experience in major competitions.
So, Adler and Neuer each have their own strengths and supporters.
With the World Cup in South Africa approaching, the match against Leverkusen will undoubtedly become a contest between the two goalkeepers.
Neuer made a statement in the media before the game, saying that he had successfully "bribed" Su Dong and he believed that Su Dong would be able to break Leverkusen's goal in the game and bring a victory to Bayern.
The implication is that Bayern will win and Adler's goal will be breached.
Adler did not show up, but Leverkusen's captain, central defender Friedrich, came out to say that the whole team would do their best to support Adler and ensure that Leverkusen's goal was not lost.
"Bayern is currently facing a wave of injuries, having just experienced two consecutive draws and two weeks of national team matches. This has a huge impact on them, and we have the strength to win at the Allianz Arena!"
…
It turns out that Friedrich was not just talking nonsense.
The first shot of the game came from Leverkusen's central defender captain.
Bayer Leverkusen took the initiative at the start of the game, launched a wave of attacks on Bayern, and intensified the pressure in the midfield and frontcourt.
But in the eighth minute, Bayern took advantage of a back pass from Leverkusen. Klose intercepted the ball from the opponent's defender and made a straight pass. Su Dong quickly followed up, successfully got out of offside and had a single shot. He calmly pushed the ball into the goal, scoring the first goal for Bayern!
But the good times did not last long. Just six minutes later, Vidal made a long pass from midfield directly into the penalty area.
When Pepe had the chance to get the ball, Neuer abandoned the goal and almost collided with Pepe.
Instead of grabbing the ball, Kiessling took advantage of it and shot into the empty goal, making it one to one!
Pepe spread his hands towards Neuer speechlessly, as if asking: "Brother, where is the trust you promised?" Neuer himself was also very embarrassed and waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that it was his fault.
If he didn't attack, Pepe could have easily controlled the long pass. It was Neuer who was to blame for being too concerned and making such a stupid mistake. He deserved the goal.
Fortunately, in the 21st minute, Toni Kroos made a through ball. After Su Dong stopped the ball between two central defenders, he quickly broke out, forced away the opponent, rushed into the penalty area, and scored again, increasing the score for Bayern again.
Scored twice!
Now Neuer was so excited that he jumped up and felt even more excited than Su Dong who scored the goal.
Afterwards, the game entered a stalemate.
Bayern gradually regained the initiative in the game, controlling the ball and the situation, while Leverkusen focused on defense and counterattack.
Adler also showed the potential of a top goalkeeper. He performed very stably, blocking high and low shots, and did not give Bayern any chance to score again, showing his greatest advantage.

Neuer also performed well afterwards, showing his skills in several Leverkusen counterattacks.
In the end, Bayern defeated Leverkusen 2-1 at home.
…
After the game, the debate about Germany's number one goalkeeper continued.
Adler performed steadily. Although he conceded two goals, it was not a big problem. Neuer was a bit reckless. Although he only conceded one goal, the responsibility for the goal lies with him, which is basically Neuer's routine operation.
This guy is just too reckless, asking for a fight! To use the words of Su Dong who teased Neuer in the locker room after the game: We are about to fight to the death with Bayer Leverkusen, why are you surrendering?
Neuer was shameless and said with a smile that he was afraid of winning unfairly, so he conceded one on purpose.
This statement earned him the middle finger from the entire locker room, and the scene was so spectacular! …………
…………
Three days later, Bayern continued to host Zurich at home.
Since Bayern had basically secured the top spot in the group, and Zurich itself was not very strong, Su Dong was not included in the roster for this game. In the end, Bayern won a narrow 1-0 home win over Zurich thanks to a goal assisted by Klose and Olic.
This victory also allowed Bayern to take first place in the group and advance to the next round.

…………
This weekend, in the 14th round of the Bundesliga, Bayern will challenge Hannover 96 away.
Just eleven minutes into the game, Su Dong got the ball in the frontcourt and attracted the attention of three defensive players. He then passed the ball through the gap between the players, and Klose followed up and scored, opening the scoring for Bayern.
Afterwards, Toni Kroos made a wonderful pass from the midfield, Su Dong broke through the double-team of two defensive players and scored with a single shot, making it 2-0!
After the second half, Toni Kroos made a wonderful pass and Su Dong scored again, scoring his second goal.
In the stoppage time, Toni Kroos made a precise through pass again. After getting rid of the defender, Su Dong calmly shot the ball with his left foot and completed a hat trick!
Toni Kroos performed a hat-trick of assists, and all three of Su Dong's goals came from his assists!
Bayern won 4-0 away against Hannover 96!
…………
…………
In the middle of the week, because Bayern will participate in the Club World Cup in mid-December, the 17th round of the league was adjusted and held early.
Bayern will host Hertha Berlin at home.
The good news is that Robben is finally back.
After the start of the game, Robben was extremely active. First, in the twelfth minute, he sent a precise through ball. Su Dong turned and broke into the left side of the penalty area. After dribbling past the defender, he calmly shot with his left foot, scoring the first goal for Bayern, one to zero!
Then Robben passed the ball in a counterattack, Lahm ran along the right and passed a low ball into the penalty area, and Sudong volleyed the ball in front of the goal, scoring another goal for Bayern, 2-0.
Just two minutes later, it was Su Dong who dribbled the ball into the penalty area and passed it to the middle. Robben followed up easily and shot with his left foot, 3-0! At the beginning of the second half, Lucio initiated the attack, Toni Kroos sent a straight pass, Su Dong broke into the left side of the penalty area alone, dribbled past the goalkeeper, and shot into the empty goal with his right foot, performing a hat trick, 4-0! Su Dong's state can be said to be extremely hot after performing hat tricks in two consecutive games.
Robben then assisted Thomas Muller to score a goal, Lucio also scored with a header from a corner kick, and Olic received a direct pass from Klose in the 77th minute to seal the victory for Bayern.
Hertha Berlin pulled one goal back in the final stages of the game, but ultimately lost 7-1 to Bayern Munich away from home.
…
A few hours after Bayern Munich's 7-1 home win over Hertha Berlin, France Football magazine announced the winners of the 2009 European Golden Ball on its official website.
