Q: Will there be extra benefits if you have a star like Harvey Alonso as your head coach?
A: “Of course, you will always want to beat the coach in training, so we will take every training class seriously. We want to make full preparations for the new season. When the coach joins our training, you will definitely feel different, but you must do your best.”
Q: What do you think of having such a talented and competitive previous career player (strong enough to participate in the training and win the opponent personally) as the head coach?
A: “It’s cool for the coach to join us in training. In our team match today, I told him that he should return to the stadium. He did and won us in the team match! He can continue playing football in his current state, so he will always be full of laughter when he joins our training.”
Q: What are his requirements for players? What Highlights does he want to see from the players?
A: “On the whole, the coach will want to see your support for the team on the defensive side, even the attacking players should participate in helping the defense. Look at the strong teams in Europe, and you will find that everyone will withdraw and take part in the defense. Therefore, it is very important to let the coach know that you will be willing to help the team do your best. In addition, you also need to show your ability to handle the ball and create opportunities, and if your attacking player still needs to show scoring ability. In addition, you need to show more comprehensive capabilities than your competitors.”
Q: What kind of transformation did he make to Leverkusen?
A: “First of all, we improved our defense, which is the basis for building the team. We focus on strengthening the defense side. We had some problems before, so we must add some new concepts. We should brainstorm and let the team see the improvement space in all directions, and then show the results in the game. When we realize our shortcomings before, we are getting closer and closer to success.”
Q: Have you adapted to this fast attack style so far?
A: “I really enjoy this fast offensive game style, opening space for my teammates, letting them make space for me by running, and then I entered the penalty area to finish the goal. I think we have the right players last season, and our strength will not drop but rise this season, so this season will still be one of our trump cards.”
Q: Leverkusen has been strengthened. What do you think of the participation of Jonathan Hoffman?
A: “This is A huge reinforcement to the team. He has rich experience in various competitions, and I think he can give some good suggestions to young players and old players to help us move forward. I am very glad that he can join us.”
Q: How to prepare for the new season after serious injury to the ligament? What is your current status?
A: “I feel in A very good state at present. I have made sufficient preparations in every training class and challenged my limits. Of course, I will still strengthen my body, especially my left knee. My current status has been restored to 100%, without any restrictions on the field. I practiced very hard in the rehabilitation stage, and the teammates I trained with also helped me a lot, so I could return to the stadium as soon as possible. I am very happy to prepare for the new season with full marks.”
Q: How do you evaluate your performance last season?
A: “Last season was very different. I don’t want the scene of last season to reappear. I was absent for a long time due to injury, but I had enough time to strengthen my physical weakness during the recovery period. I prepared for a few months before returning to the stadium. You know there is always room for progress as a professional player. Although I did have some positive things during my injury, my goal must still be to keep healthy.”
Q: So far, what is the highlight of your career?
A: “I recovered from my injury Post-returning. I have been looking forward to returning to the stadium for A long time, so my memory is still fresh. I had not played football for a long time at that time, so I was particularly impressed by it.”
Q: What is your most unique memory of “60 Years of Bundesliga?
A: “I can’t remember exactly which year it was, but I know that A friend and I especially liked Yunda Bremen at that time, because Marco Marin was my favorite player. I also liked Lucas Barrios who worked for Dortmund at that time. They are my first two football idols.”
Q: Why do you like Marco Marin?
A: “I actually can’t remember his game style. I have A signed jersey and A autographed photograph at home. This is the first autographed photograph I got since I was A child. Therefore, I remember that he was my favorite player in that year.”
Q: This season is in line with the European Cup year. What do you think of this local European Cup?
A: “I don’t really pay attention to the European Cup at present. It is only A thought in my mind at present. I hope I can win the trust of the coach of the national team with good performance and finally participate in this competition. But at present, I am more focused on following the team to achieve good results in the Bundesliga competition in the new season. Perhaps as the event approaches, my thoughts about the European Cup will get deeper and deeper.”
Q: In your opinion, will the local European Cup be only one chance in your career?
A: “Yes, indeed. At present, this is not true for a teenager like me who has just started my career, so I don’t expect too much from the European Cup.”
