It was too early to become famous, and Marco Marlin did, winning the Fritz Walter Gold Medal in 2007 and the European Youth Championship in 2009.
Marco Marin did it, and in his early 30s he chose to pan for gold in Saudi Arabia, and it was normal for him to be forgotten away from the mainstream league.
Similar contrasts are not unique in football, with Getze and Balotelli being the archaic teaching materials, but the contours of Marco Marin's genius disappear too quickly and too early. Nine, Hummels and Boateng, who had been laughing and joking on the podium at the European Youth Championship that year, fought side by side on the stage of the 2014 World Cup five years later, gilding the resumes of their careers with world champions.
At that time, Reuss, who missed the World Cup due to injury, was particularly concerned by German fans, and his peer Marko Marin was like a lonely patient, and when he was a teenager, he could only reminisce about the old days in front of the TV.

His Bundesliga debut assisted his teammates with free kicks, but borees Borussia Möncheng and fledgling Marin were both passers-by in the Bundesliga that season, and relegation to the second division was more of a timely exercise opportunity for the latter.
Fast forward to the first round of the 2007-08 DFB-Pokal, where Marin dribbled at high speed on the left and broke through the arc after breaking through the inside to score a bit of Robben' resemblance. The moment of the glimpse inspired the outside world to appreciate the "genius", and at the end of the season, his 13 assists not only marked his own flexible style, but also contributed to Borussia Borussia Moncheng's rise to the top of the Bundesliga championship.
Genius hooks up talent and also reaps traffic.
Since then, Marko Marin's name has been circulating in Germany, and he was only a Bundesliga player at the time to be able to successfully qualify for the German chariot under Loews, which obviously did not rely on luck, even if he could not catch the last train to Euro 2008, but the thrill of "skipping the level" is reminiscent.
Some people are eager to see what kind of storm the young and famous Marin can make in the Bundesliga? Or was it blown away by the rain and the wind?
It turns out that he still plays the role of the big stage, and it is with his 12 assists that Borussia Moncheng, who returned to the Bundesliga, avoided struggling in the relegation zone. After winning the title of "German version of Messi", he naturally became the heart of the club, for example, in the German Cup, against an unknown amateur team, but Marin, who scored a hat-trick in 17 minutes, exceeded expectations.
With the big picture set, Borussia Moncheng's early replacement of Marin was obviously for protective purposes, but the fans were still unsatisfied and booed, so Marco Marlin became a darling.

Marin, who was substituted for injury in the 2009 Europa League semi-finals, did not make it to the final final battle, but his name drifted off into the distance that windswept summer.
Marin joined Werder Bremen, while Borussia Moncheng also brought in another Marco (Reuss), put on the no. 10 shirt that symbolized the core, Marin's talent was completely respected and released, Bremen was in the league's third place, and he gave 14 assists and perfectly matched the transfer fee of 8.5 million euros.
Being selected for the German Chariot is a step-by-step way of growing up, not to mention that Marin, who started from Frankfurt, has always believed that he will one day embrace a better tomorrow, so coming to Borussia Borussia Möncheng and joining Bremen is a natural choice. After the Emergence of the Weser Stadium, his teammates joined Real Madrid first, and more and more voices believe that the Parrot Army will not be able to keep this wind-chasing teenager.
In the days of fighting alone, Bremen's record is different from last season's, directly from sliding to 13th in the league, fans miss the good times when the twin stars of the past, but also sympathize with the lone marlin, to be honest, the season 10 assists did not lose color, but when the results deteriorated, the pressure as the core can be imagined.
Bremen's results have also picked up, but Marin's "discount" data is easily misunderstood as nothing more than that, when Chelsea extended an olive branch, at least in the moment of holding hands is the joy of a win-win model, Chelsea snared geniuses, Bremen abandoned the burden, Marin looked for another safe haven, at the meeting of the new owners, Marin said: "Joining Chelsea is like a dream." ”
To this end, he rejected Tottenham, the attraction of the giants need not be said more, but it is a bit far-fetched to explain it with "fate".

The plot behind, fans are very familiar, in the three years of playing at Chelsea, Marin played a total of 143 minutes, originally thought that in Bremen is about to wear out the stars, he can grab the rope to save the star at Stamford Bridge, because at that time a lot of chelsea's heroes have left the team, Marin should have had a foothold in the reshuffle of the giants, but completely fell into the abyss.
Under Di Matteo and Benitez, the status of Marin's fringe has not changed in the slightest, and the doubts of poor strength and the constant destruction of injuries have made the former genius suffer from loss, and the returning Mourinho is dismissive of the "legacy of the predecessor" and issued an eviction order before the start of the season.
What Marin didn't know was that the German national team was drifting away from him, and since the 2012 European qualifiers, the door of the national team was like he had completely closed.
From darling to outcast, a dream, he was only 23 years old at the time.
Blame the recklessness when choosing the big guys? Is it strange that the thin body can't adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League? Or is it because you are too beautiful? Maybe tracing back to the roots, fate is like this, if there is no dream, why should he go far.
It's just that his wandering career is eating away at his comeback, playing for Sevilla in 2013, Fiorentina in 2014, and Then Indlecht and Trabzon sports in 2015. Although the ownership still belongs to Chelsea, he has not made waves everywhere he went, and he has not won a minute in Serie A, in addition to the bitterness of early returns.
The outside world is wonderful, but Marin is like a passerby standing outside the window.
What did he leave behind at Chelsea? The friendly match against Seattle made a oolong, and the goal that was the icing on the cake in the big victory over Wigan was one of the few "highlights".
"What kind of end point is worthy of the upheaval of this road?" Perhaps Marin also screamed in the sky, and in the age when others were on the rise, he was like a shooting star, so that when he transferred to Olympiacos in Greece, he was worth only 3 million euros, when he was not yet 28 years old.

Fate is magical, Marin's partner has had a smooth ride after Madrid, taking the European assist king, and Reuss, who is modeled by Marin, is bound by injuries, but he is still the proud son of Dortmund in health, and he himself acts as a background board in other people's stories, with a voice of ridicule and regret.
In the summer of 2016, Pogba moved to Manchester United, Sane joined Manchester City, Mane moved to Anfield, Kante moved to Stamford Bridge, Marin and Olympiacos held hands, time will prove the value of the classic, but also lower the original expectations.
Marin, who ended his contract with Chelsea, did find a period of stability in Greek giants Olympiacos, and he seemed to be moving closer to the vow of "I just want to play well" when he joined, and the long-lost "best player" has a feeling of going back in time, although the heyday does not come back, but the 28-year-old when he played is by no means the age of surrender.
Perhaps in a hurry to vent his emotions, or perhaps he wanted to reconcile with his past self, Marin took the initiative to spread his heart: "I want to win the league championship and then go as far as possible in the Europa League, as for the German national team, that is already a distant goal for me." ”
Scoring 7 goals in 27 appearances, such data can not match the title of "German Messi", but time has changed, and he is more and more mediocre, he is accepted, he can also be tainted with the style of the league championship, and he can also experience the success of the Champions League is an additional bonus.
Contented, in addition to the quarrel with the head coach in the middle of the season, Marin, who has the ball to play, played a remarkable role, but the Greek giants were not satisfied, and they "sent" him to Red Star Belgrade for 700,000 euros of cabbage. Although the parents are both Bosnian Serbs, there is a feeling of falling leaves returning to the roots on the surface, but combined with the right age, there is a feeling of tired birds returning to the forest.
When carrying the shackles, Marin is not so concerned about the outside world's eyes, the clues of his efforts to fight have also been rendered by the media, in the Champions League, Red Star is tantamount to hitting Paris with a pebble, but Marin, who shot hard, insisted, and he also made two goals with his own strength to face Liverpool and take away the victory...

Far from the spotlight, Marin has long adapted, joining the Saudi Jeddah national is not difficult to say, survival of the fittest is always the benchmark of the competitive world, if one day, he quietly retires, it is just a natural law. Although words like "recovery" and "awakening" are easily associated with the frustrated, where there are so many new worlds, not to mention the bitterness written on his resume.
Hopefully, tomorrow will be better for him.
