This was also a way to develop his own ability to analyze games.
Hainauer was more than just a passer.
He had excellent technique on the ball; he could pass, control, dribble, and shoot, and he also covered a large area of the pitch.
In Mainz's counter-attacks, Wang Shuo was usually the furthest man forward. If a quick pass behind the defense was possible, they would take it immediately.
If that wasn't on, they'd control the ball and hold up play.
Wang Shuo and Hainauer were the players who held up the ball for Mainz up front.
Only when they secured possession did players like Foyelner, Helle, Kalhan, and Gunkel have the opportunity to make runs from deep.
So, the understanding between the two of them became exceptionally important.
The timing of their passes, their playing styles, personal preferences, and so on...
They had to know all these aspects inside and out.
Besides, just talking about all this was completely useless.
