Today is the first day of training back with the team, and many Barcelona players are not in good condition.

This is normal behavior. Every time you return from vacation, there will be a transition period.

There is no continental competition this summer, which is not bad.

Otherwise, you have to overcome the FIFA virus, which is even more troublesome.

On the first day of training with the Barcelona first team, Chang Ming was also in average condition.

But it's not because of the vacation issue, but because of what Guardiola just said.

He expected that his journey with the first team would be difficult, but he did not expect that Guardiola would directly hit him in the face.

The meaning of those words just now is very clear.

There is no place for you in the first team.

There isn't even a bench.

This made Chang Ming feel very...

Anxious?

Bored?

disappointment?

dissatisfied?

sad?

Depressed?

It seems that there are all kinds of emotions, and it seems that there are no emotions at all.

Throughout the day, Chang Ming became very cold on the training ground.

He was not familiar with the first-team players, and because of emotional problems, he did not take the initiative to make friends with his teammates.

This is not his character either.

Train steadily and play football quietly.

Originally, according to his idea, he planned to invite Guardiola, Messi and several other new coaches and new teammates to have dinner.

But in the end it didn't.

Inviting Guardiola at this time, does it make him feel that he is deliberately trying to please?

hehe.

There are also first-team players such as Messi and Chang Ming who did not quickly advance the relationship.

Just like that, one day, two days, three days...

a week has passed.

Chang Ming trained very well in the first team, and the training effect was particularly obvious.

Being around Xavi and Iniesta, my organizational ability and overall view have improved a lot.

This is the only joy in the boring training life.

Yes, boring training life.

Chang Ming never felt this way when he was in the youth team and Barcelona B team.

He is very excited and happy every time he trains.

But it's different now.

It's like before an exam, the teacher says to you: "No matter how well you pass, I will give you zero points."

That feeling of powerlessness.

One week, two weeks.

Two weeks later, Chang Ming still looked exactly the same on the outside, but inside he was gray.

At the end of the day's training, Guardiola called him aside again: "Ming, have you considered the three suggestions I made before?"

Chang Ming shook his head and said nothing.

Guardiola patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, I still suggest you make a decision early. After all, the first team..."

Guardiola said nothing further.

But Chang Ming knew what he wanted to say.

Chang Ming shook his head and said nothing.

Guardiola also nodded and turned to leave.

Chang Ming was thinking about the three paths proposed by Guardiola, but he just didn't make a choice.

Because he is waiting.

What are you waiting for?

Waiting for the friendly league to be held in Barcelona starting next week!

On the first day of training, Guardiola told all the players.

In half a month, three teams from the five major leagues will gather in Barcelona to play a round-robin friendly league.

This news made the players excited.

Being able to compete with opponents in different leagues will be of great help to players in finding their form.

Especially their goal this season is to defend the Champions League title!

And the three upcoming opponents are the best in their respective leagues.

Premier League hegemon - Manchester United!

Serie A giant - AC Milan!

Bundesliga powerhouse - Dortmund!

Three opponents, each with their own characteristics!

This friendly league is very meaningful!

Barcelona players are all looking forward to the game, and Chang Ming is no exception.

In other words, he expected it more than anyone else.

If other players hope to find their form quickly, Chang Ming hopes to prove his strength on this stage!

Through outstanding performance, strive to leave a deeper impression on Guardiola and strive to change his plans for himself.

Soon, it was time for a friendly match.

Three strong teams gathered in Barcelona, ​​and twelve games started one by one.

According to the arrangement, the first game is Barcelona against Dortmund.

In the first game, Guardiola directly sent out last season's Champions League winning lineup.

Xavi leads the midfield triangle, and the forward combination represented by Messi all plays.

Dortmund is also full of talents, especially young talented players.

In the defense, Subotic and Hummels started.

In the midfield position, captain Kyle, winger Tinga, and young genius Shaheen form a trident.

On the front line, Valdez, Zidan and Barrios played.

This lineup is very strong. They won the German Super Cup last season with this lineup.

This is also the first championship in the coaching career of new coach Jurgen Klopp.

Dortmund makes a comeback this season, and the Hornets led by Klopp set off a youth storm!

From the first minute of this friendly match, Dortmund decisively started an offensive battle with Barcelona!

The three-star strikers were in very good shape, scoring two goals in the first 30 minutes.

The Barcelona side was even more impressive. With the help of the home court, young player Messi scored three goals in a row and performed a hat trick.

3 to 2, this was also the final score of the first half.

Victory or failure is not the focus of a friendly match, training is the fundamental purpose.

In the second half, both sides were mobilizing their troops and almost replaced 11 players.

Compared with the depth of the bench, Dortmund is much worse.

Even if they are bench players, Barcelona are among the top stars in Europe.

In the end, Barcelona scored two more goals in the second half, setting the score at 5-2.

The first game of this friendly league was such a wonderful match.
