After the 8th round of the Bundesliga, the world football entered a half-month long national team match day, with various national teams continuing to fight for the South Africa World Cup qualifiers.
As Hoffenheim's performance gets better and better, more and more teammates join the national team.
Ibisevic, Demba Ba, Obasi, Beck, Eduardo, Weiss, Gustavo and others have all joined their respective national teams.
After the match with Mainz, these international players left the team one after another and went to the national team battlefield, and the number of people at the training base decreased a lot.
There has been more and more discussion in the media about why Lu Wenbin has not yet joined the national team and become a national player. Not only Chinese media and fans, but foreign media and fans have also begun to speak up for Lu Wenbin.
For an Asian national team ranked around 100th in the world, is it possible that there is no place for the European Golden Boot
It's just funny.
Even the Brazilian team, which is full of talented players, wouldn’t dare to play like this.
Although the Chinese Football Association said that there are currently no major events and there is no need for Lu Wenbin to appear, it is already the third season since Lu Wenbin landed in Europe and he has not even participated in a symbolic national team training camp. This is too ridiculous.
Even if there are no important competitions, at least Lu Wenbin should be recruited into the national team for training, play one or two warm-up matches, and establish Lu Wenbin's number and position in the national team, right
Since the Chinese team doesn't want a striker with such a strong goal-scoring efficiency, other countries must!
On October 5, Germany's Kicker magazine publicly called for the German Football Association to invite Lu Wenbin to join the German national team and compete for the German national team in the World Cup in South Africa, as there is no place for Lu Wenbin in the Chinese national team.
Lu Wenbin himself plays in the Bundesliga and has played against many players of the German national team in the Bundesliga. They are very familiar with each other and there is no sense of strangeness.
With Lu Wenbin's strength, joining Germany will definitely make the German national team even stronger, and the hope of winning the South Africa World Cup will be even greater!
Especially since Lu Wenbin’s girlfriend Kate is German, if they get married in the future, Lu Wenbin will be a German son-in-law, which makes the German media and fans closer to Lu Wenbin.
Kicker's appeal drew cheers and responses from the German media and fans. Some of Lu Wenbin's die-hard fans even held banners and shouted outside the gate of the German Football Association headquarters, demanding that the German Football Association recruit Lu Wenbin to play for the German national team.
Not only Germany, after Kicker took the lead in making such an appeal, media in other countries such as France, Spain, Italy, etc. also called on their national football associations to recruit Lu Wenbin into the team.
Except for the Chinese team, which turns a blind eye to Lu Wenbin's free kick level and ability to score goals in open play, all other countries are extremely jealous and pay great attention to him.
It is possible that national football associations have already begun studying the feasibility, but journalists are always the fastest.
After such calls appeared in the media, everyone naturally wanted to hear Lu Wenbin's own voice. Especially those Chinese media reporters, they were the most anxious.
They don't want to see Lu Wenbin acquire foreign citizenship and play for other countries.
Fortunately, when some reporters went to interview Lu Wenbin about this issue in person, Lu Wenbin refuted the answer in person, which made those Chinese reporters feel relieved.
For Lu Wenbin, refusing to join foreign nationality and other national teams is a certainty.
On such a major issue of right and wrong, there is no way Lu Wenbin would be ambiguous.
Although he is disappointed with Chinese football and a little disappointed that the national team has not recruited him yet, Lu Wenbin can only continue to wait.
As the saying goes, when you are poor, you should take care of yourself, and when you are rich, you should help the world. He didn't know how much experience the national team had, nor did he know whether he could lead the national team to a second World Cup finals.
However, as a native Chinese, he naturally hopes to serve his motherland when he has enough strength.
No matter how chaotic the domestic football situation is or how shitty the Football Association is, it is impossible for him to join other countries, wear other countries' jerseys, and fight for foreigners.
A son will never dislike his mother's ugliness, a dog will never dislike his family's poverty. A nest of gold or silver is not as good as one's own thatched nest. There can be no ambiguity on matters of principle.
When Lu Wenbin's interview was reported back to China, it caused different discussions among the fan camp.
Most people still support Lu Wenbin joining the national football team and fighting for the country.
As some fans put up slogans while watching the game: The Chinese national football team has abused me thousands of times, but I still regard it as my first love.
But some fans who are completely desperate about Chinese football believe that Lu Wenbin should join a foreign country and that Chinese football is not worth Lu Wenbin's saving.
Moreover, it cannot be saved!
No matter how good Lu Wenbin is, they don't think Lu Wenbin can lead the Chinese national team to achieve any breakthrough results.
It has nothing to do with patriotism, it's just that I have completely given up and felt hopeless about Chinese football.
Lu Wenbin's desire to join the national football team disappointed these fans, and some even called for them to never watch Lu Wenbin play again.
But this is a multiple-choice question of right and wrong, and Lu Wenbin can only choose one of the two. He has to make it clear that he is serving the country, and there is nothing he can do about being abandoned by some fans.
Amid the discussions among domestic media and fans, the Chinese Football Association remained silent. Head coach Gao Hongbo also refused to comment on the matter. It is unknown why.
There are rumors that Lu Wenbin's outstanding performance in Europe has attracted the attention of a national leader who loves football.
In fact, the Football Association no longer has any say on the issue of Lu Wenbin.
Of course, this is just a rumor among some senior reporters. No one knows whether it is true or not, and no one dares to spread it everywhere. Ordinary reporters and fans know nothing about it.
Everyone just continues to criticize the Football Association for its inaction, and they wish the Ministry of Public Security would crack down on gangs and gambling and wipe out the entire Football Association.
After stating his position, no reporters came to bother Lu Wenbin, and no foreign football association contacted Lu Wenbin to try to get him to join their national team. Lu Wenbin continued to train at the base with his teammates who were not international players.
On October 10, Lu Wenbin asked Ralph for a day off and then accompanied Kate to hold the book launch of her debut novel in Sinsheim.
With the big star Lu Wenbin supporting Kate, Kate's new book launch was sought after by media reporters, and many readers bought books on the spot.
Of course, many people had other intentions. After buying the book, they not only asked for Kate's autograph, but also asked for Lu Wenbin's autograph.
Lu Wenbin also accepted all offers, and in order to help his girlfriend's debut work sell well, he was willing to sign autographs until his hands were sore.
After the book launch, the first volume of Kate's novel was put on sale in major bookstores across Germany.
Thanks to Lu Wenbin’s collateral influence, more than 10,000 copies were sold on the first day!
Then, word of mouth started to spread the next day.
Kate's writing style follows the style of Chinese online novels, and although it is not worth mentioning in terms of literary quality, ordinary readers do seem to be addicted to it and cannot extricate themselves!
Many people only have one feeling after watching it: awesome!
As for the literary and philosophical aspects, no one cares! Anyway, this novel is enjoyable to read. I highly recommend it to relatives and friends!
Therefore, although the small amount dropped in the next few days, it did not fall as drastically as other novels.
The sales of Kate's debut work continued to break through the 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000 mark, and began to rush to the top of the bestseller list!
