Chapter 117 Let Wenger Regret

In the No.20 round of the Eredivisie, Ajax challenged Volendam away.

Only [-] minutes into the first half, Escuder took advantage of a corner kick to give Ajax the lead, leading [-]-[-], but then the team failed to open the situation.

After 75 minutes in the second half, Yang Yang came off the bench again, and in the No.807 minute, he used a personal forced breakthrough to create a foul by Volendam player Lulink.

In the end, Ajax defeated Volendam [-]-[-] away with goals from Escud and Garasek.

In another game at the same time, Eindhoven beat Twente [-]-[-] at home with a goal from Kežman.

…………

…………

In the second round of No.20 in the Eredivisie, Ajax ushered in Twente at home.

Ronald Koeman made adjustments to the team's starting lineup for the midweek Champions League knockout match.

Still in the first half, Greek center Anastasio scored a goal for Ajax, which was also his first goal after joining Ajax.

Afterwards, Ajax continued to slow down their offensive, especially in the second half. After Yang Yang came off the bench, although he once made an excellent breakthrough from the right, his mentality was very relaxed, and the audience did not perform well.

The head coach Ronald Koeman told him when he was replaced on the court that the purpose of coming off the bench in this game is to maintain his form, there is no need to try his best, and the main energy should be put on the midweek game against Arsenal.

That is the key battle for Ajax in the next period of time.

Although there is a big gap in strength between the two teams, neither Ronald Koeman nor the players are willing to give up lightly.

In the end, Ajax beat Twente [-]-[-] at home.

Eindhoven led twice in the away game, was equalized twice by Heerenveen, and was even scored by Heerenveen's Hansen at the last minute, and finally lost the game [-]-[-].

Van Bommel lost control of his emotions before the end and received a red card.

After the end of this round, Ajax leads Eindhoven by seven points, and the momentum of winning the championship is becoming more and more obvious.

"That dead old man finally said something human."

The next morning after playing Twente, Zlatan Ibrahimovic rubbed against the breakfast bought by Yang Yang, looked at the newspaper brought back by Yang Yang, and scolded the technical director Van Gaal who didn't know where he was at the moment.

This is how people are, once someone is not pleasing to the eye, every word the other party says and everything they do will be annoying.

That's what Ibrahimovic did with Van Gaal and van der Vaart.

But this time, although he was scolding, he seemed to agree with Van Gaal's words in his bones.

"What's the matter?" Yang Yang asked curiously.

Maxwell and Vermaelen are also very strange, for no reason, why mention Van Gaal?
"Here, the old man said in an interview with the Telegraph that he believes we can kill Arsenal, he thinks we have the quality, and that we will give Arsenal a terrible defeat at the Amsterdam Arena."

Everyone looked at the newspaper spread on the dining table, followed Ibrahimovic's hand, and easily found this report.

This is just a very ordinary pre-match mobilization, but it seems to have resonated with the Swedish center.

"Do you really want to touch Arsenal?" Yang Yang continued to bury his head in his breakfast, but asked pointedly.

Recently, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been in a bad mood. He has not scored in many rounds of the league. Because of the rotation, he did not make the squad in the last round against Twente, but Anastasio, who replaced the starter, scored the winning goal.

Although the outside media and fans didn't have much reaction after the game, Yang Yang believed that with the swedish center's haughty temperament, he couldn't be indifferent to it, not to mention that he has been in a bad mood recently.

After hearing Yang Yang's question, Ibrahimovic obviously stopped gnawing on the bread, raised his eyes to look at Yang Yang, and found that the latter had been burying his head in the soup. After hesitating for a while, he finally nodded.

"Think about it, think about it terribly."

"Want to score?" Yang Yang asked again.

"Hmm." The Swedish center didn't speak anymore.

Yang Yang somewhat understands his situation. As a center forward, he has always been controversial in Ajax. The main problem is that his scoring efficiency is too low. The introduction of Wesley Songk last summer and Anastasius during the winter break are all to make up for this problem. But now it seems that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is still the main center of the team.

This is a difficult thing to say clearly. Is it because of Ibrahimovic's lack of scoring efficiency?Or is there a problem with Ajax's offense?Or is it both?
"Playing at Ajax is a strange thing," Maxwell said suddenly.

"What do you mean?" Vermaelen asked.

"In other teams, their attitude towards players is often more rational. For example, if you perform well, they will praise you, and if you perform poorly, they will criticize you, but at Ajax it is not the case at all."

"What's that like?" Yang Yang suddenly asked with great interest.

In fact, even now, he still doesn't understand Ajax.

Or should I say, I don't really understand it.

"How should I put it?" Maxwell frowned. "Ajax will encourage players to try. They like to promote young players and give players a lot of room to make mistakes, because they feel that making mistakes is a way to improve, which they do better than other teams."

Yang Yang and Vermaelen looked at each other, and they both nodded, that is indeed the case.

"But when you perform well, it's hard to hear their praise. They will always analyze the bad performance from your performance and point it out to you, hoping that you will correct it in the future. This gives people a feeling that no matter how good we perform, we will never be able to satisfy them and never meet their requirements."

Neither Yang Yang nor Vermaelen spoke.

I have to say that Ajax is indeed a team that is very stingy in giving players applause and praise.

At least that's true within the team.

"Do you know why?" Ibrahimovic asked suddenly.

Both Yang Yang and Vermaelen shook their heads.

"Because they always want to make you the most perfect and outstanding person in their memory. For example, they always want me to be the second Van Basten, the second Kluivert, but they never want to make me the first Zlatan Ibrahimovic. That's why I want to leave here as soon as possible."

Yang Yang suddenly didn't know what to say. He agreed with Zlatan Ibrahimovic's resistance, because being someone else's shadow is a very painful thing, and no one wants to do it.

Just like Yang Yang, he also doesn't like others to compare him with Van der Meyde last season, and he firmly believes that as he continues to grow and improve, as his position in the first team becomes more and more stable, his dislike will become more serious, and may even turn into hatred.

Of course, the best way to resolve this emotion is to use facts to prove that you can do better than Van der Meyde, and use this to stop everyone from comparing.

"Do you know why I want to play Arsenal?" Ibrahimovic suddenly looked at Yang Yang and asked again.

Yang Yang shook his head.

The Swedish center opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, but soon sighed again, "Before I came to Ajax, I had been to Arsenal. Wenger contacted me through their scouts and invited me to visit London. You know, these are the tricks that rich teams are best at attracting young players."

Yang Yang nodded, indeed.

He still clearly remembers the shock when he saw the Amsterdam Arena for the first time.

In his eyes at that time, the Amsterdam Arena was the dream football palace.

It's just that people's desires will increase with the continuous improvement of their positions. Now Yang Yang no longer has the excitement when he walked into the Amsterdam Arena, but he still remembers the feeling and mood at that time.

For him, it's a motivation.

"Before going to London, their scouts told me that Arsenal wanted to sign me, and I would be happy to play for Arsenal. That's why I went to London." The Swedish center showed a self-deprecating sneer.

"Wenger is very busy. While waiting for his interview, I kept imagining what he would tell me. At that time, I thought, he should tell me directly, Zlatan, you are great, we decided to sign you now, this is the contract..."

The three of Yang Yang listened silently. They never knew about it, and they never heard Ibrahimovic mention it.

"But in the end, do you know what he told me?" Ibrahimovic gritted his teeth and asked, "He told me that he didn't know my strength. He hoped that I could stay at Arsenal for trial training, so that he and the technical team could observe me carefully and finally decide whether to sign me."

"I was so mad at the time, I told him directly, either sign the contract or get out, and the result was obvious, I got out, from Arsenal, from London, from England, back to my hometown, I became the laughing stock of many people."

Yang Yang knew that with Zlatan Ibrahimovic's character, before going to Arsenal, he must have boasted to his teammates, but he failed to stay, and he would naturally become the laughing stock of others when he came back.

And obviously, this incident left an indelible scar in his heart.

He is such a proud and conceited person, so he naturally hopes to have a chance to regain his position, at least to make Wenger regret his original decision, and his recent poor state is probably because of this incident.

It's like a person, the more he wants to sleep, the more he can't sleep.

"Playing Arsenal at home, I must make Wenger regret it, I want him to know who beat him!" Ibrahimovic said through gritted teeth.

Yang Yang, Maxwell and Vermaelen couldn't help feeling the same way after hearing this.

Even now, Ibrahimovic is an insignificant existence in front of Arsenal's Wenger, and even Wenger may have forgotten that meeting back then.

But Ibrahimovic still keeps in mind.

He remembers it now, and he will remember it all his life.
