The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 5 It was him
When Ye Qiu was on the training ground of the De Tokmoster B2 team, commanding Sneijder, Maduro and a group of young players with unprecedented concentration and attention, carrying out his new training method , Westerhof is also not idle.

The old man guessed that Ye Qiu would spy on his training with the heart of a villain, so he shamelessly moved the training ground of the B1 team, which was supposed to be next door, to a corner, which made B1 The two teams, B2 and B[-], are respectively at the easternmost and westernmost of the high age group training area.

But what's even more shameless is that he didn't want Ye Qiu to peek at his training, but he arranged for someone to peek at Ye Qiu's training.

Ye Qiu can't tell that those sneaky guys peeping outside the training ground are all James Bond, but there is no secret in his training. He only has this little stuff on hand now, and he can't show it off no matter how much he wants. , so he simply let them watch, and even pretended to be a gentleman with balls, and a villain who often feels sorry for him.

"Aren't you going to practice something?"

Ajax's youth team will arrange two people for each age group, one is a full-time coach, and the other is team management, usually called the team leader. Now Ye Qiu is talking to the team leader of the B2 team. We met in the morning. Called Roland Shepas, a native of De Tokmoster.

The reason why he is De Tokmost and not Ajax is because the proudest thing about this 32-year-old guy is that he spent his time in De Tokmost from the age of 7 to 20, but Retired after graduating from De Tokmorst at the age of 20 because he did not meet the demands of the first team and no professional teams were interested in him.

Sometimes Ye Qiu thought to himself, with Ajax's graduate employment rate as high as 95%, how bad Roland Shepas must be to become one of the 5% who can't play in the professional league Woolen cloth?
Of course, he would not dare to ask this question, otherwise Roland would probably fight him desperately.

"Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion!" Ye Qiu put on a confident posture, and he has a chance to win. This is necessary. He must not show weakness now, and needs to use confidence to infect the people around him. "We Chinese often say, Eat food bite by bite, do things step by step, don't worry, you won't be able to eat hot tofu!"

Roland shook his head, there was nothing he could do about it, "Why don't I sneak over and take a look for you!"

Westerhof has already arranged several groups of Mission Impossible agents to spy on the military situation, but there is no movement from Ye Qiu's side.

Now Roland and Ye Qiu are both on the same boat. If Ye Qiu loses, although he doesn't have to resign, he is also worried that it will affect his performance at the end of the season.

In addition to the strict assessment of players, De Tokmoster also conducts assessment and assessment of coaches every year, involving various aspects. If they fail to pass, they will be directly dismissed by the club and a new batch of newcomers will be hired again.

"No need, they have no guts or confidence, let's not be as knowledgeable as them!" Ye Qiu still looked confident.

In the B1 team, except for Van der Vaart and Heitinga, Ye Qiu has never even heard of the names of the others, and he has read some evaluations before. tactics.

This is somewhat similar to the national team in Ye Qiu's previous life. When he was young, he had excellent results in terms of tactics and body, but once he reached the adult team, he could not take advantage of this aspect and suffered a disadvantage.

Seeing Ye Qiu's relaxed expression that he was grasping the winning ticket, Roland was very worried, but after seeing Ye Qiu's expression, he seemed to feel relieved. Anyway, he was extremely troubled.

Not only him, but also Westerhoff who received the information.

…………

"Is it still the same training today?"

In the director's office of the De Tokmoster training building, Westerhoff asked the spies he sent with a sullen face.

"Yeah, it's weird, for a couple of days, he's doing the same drills, usually in a 10 by 10 area where the players are running and passing, and the rest of the time it's 4-on-4 or 8-on-8. Pairs of [-] small field actual combat training."

Among them, there is nothing special about the two trainings of 4 on 4 and 8 on 8, because this is Ajax's traditional youth training program, and all coaches who enter the Ajax youth training camp will use these two sets of tricks. Train players to pass and run from different angles.

"However, there is one thing that is very strange!" Brother Spy said with a frown.

"What's so strange?" Westhoff asked with concern.

"He usually doesn't speak during training. He runs away after the training is arranged, and leaves everything to Roland. He just watches from the sidelines and occasionally yells a few times. He is asking the players to run more, and there are other things. Stick the ball to your feet, make more one-touch shots, be decisive in one-on-ones, try to dribble when you get the chance."

If these requirements are placed in 2013, any fan who knows a little bit about football will know that there is nothing special, but the key problem is that Ajax's youth training requirements are different from those in 2013.

Many people have said that Ajax is the talent pool of the Netherlands, and Ajax's youth training is the vane of Dutch football talents.

After a group of players such as Van der Vaart, Sneijder, and Robben grew up, everyone discovered that there was a very interesting flaw in that Dutch team. In a one-on-one situation, except for one Robben, or barely counting a Van Persie, no one has enough confidence and confidence to fight alone.

Moreover, Robben is not considered a typical Dutch youth training. He grew up under the guidance of his father since he was a child.

So much so that the later head coach of the national team, Van Basten, complained a lot about this. In 2005, he tried his best to get Kalou to be naturalized in the Netherlands. What he valued was his personal ability. This incident caused an uproar at the time , and Van Basten's reason is also very good, that is, among the Dutch players, except Robben, no one can fight alone.

This is actually a defect in youth training that has existed since the era of Michels and Cruyff. It was only later that the Dutch talent flourished and was covered up. Now that the Dutch talent has broken down, it is naturally exposed to the fullest.

The youth training philosophy of Michels and Cruyff is a simple and cooperative tactical style. The Dutch Football Association with them as the core advocates the same set, especially the youth training of Ajax. As far as training running positions, slightly fancy techniques are regarded as violating the principle of simplicity and are stifled.

Of course, they also pay attention to technology, but they don't pay attention to guidance. Their traditional approach to technical training is to let players explore by themselves. The most famous sentence in their philosophy is to throw the ball to him and let the players learn to surpass others by themselves!

Although it was later proved that this set was flawed, and the entire Dutch football suffered losses because of it, but in 1999, this set is still the bible and an unchallengeable authority, especially in Van Gaal's new round of success after.

"What trick is he playing?" Westhoff couldn't figure it out either. "It's been a few days, so is he not worried about the next game at all? Or is he really so confident? "

Ye Qiu was studying football knowledge and reading football theory day and night in a place where no one was watching. Naturally, Westerhof would not know, let alone know that Ye Qiu's training method relies on practice makes perfect There will be such speculation.

"By the way, who is the opponent of Team B2 tomorrow?" Westhoff asked again.

"Graf Sharp!"

Graf Sharp is a team in the middle and lower reaches of the Eredivisie League. It lacks combat effectiveness in the Eredivisie League and has no good products in terms of youth training. The only thing that can make people remember this club is that the two have left the team Among the celebrities, one is Guus Hiddink, and the other is the German coach Korbach.

Among them, the well-known head coach Ten Carter in the Netherlands is Korbach's assistant.

"With the strength of the team, it is not a big problem to beat this team. What about the next game?"

"Groningen!"

"Damn, what luck!" Westerhof cursed angrily.

He has stayed in Groningen, so he naturally knows the situation in Groningen. The first team of this team is still in the Dutch second league, and the results are relatively good. Compared with a strong youth team like Jax.

In Westerhoff's view, with the strength of the Ajax B2 team, it is not a big problem to surpass these two teams in one fell swoop.

"It's better to be careful. In the next few games, you will keep an eye on him and give me a report every day!"

"I understand!" Brother Spy nodded without hesitation.

…………

…………

After the third round of the Eredivisie League, it began to enter a two-week truce, but the youth team's league did not stop, but continued to follow the rhythm of one game a week.

Saturday 9 September, Doetinchem
Ajax B2 team's away game against Graf Sharp B2 team was played in a simple stadium in Graf Sharp youth training camp. .

Ajax B2 still has a lineup of 433. Ye Qiu pushes the three core midfield players, Sneijder, Maduro and De Jong, and then asks the players to follow the usual training method. Contest.

"Quick, decisive, one touch!"

This was the only request Ye Qiu gave, but it was obvious that the players did a terrible job on the court.

There is only one week. In training, whether it is one-on-one or one-kick passing and receiving, they are full of mistakes. Once they are on the official game field, facing this group of Ajax team logos, they will fight. An opponent with chicken blood, the result can be imagined.

It's no wonder that they have grown up under the indoctrination of Ajax's traditional youth training since they were young, which has made them develop a kind of inertia, that is, relying on Ajax's traditional way of passing and receiving the ball, Now that Ye Qiu wanted to change some details that were already deeply ingrained in them, it would undoubtedly be very difficult, and it would take a long time.

Reform requires labor pains, because reform will bring turmoil and confusion.

For this situation, Ye Qiu had already been mentally prepared, so when the game was over, he wasn't annoyed by the loss at all, he was just annoyed at the tall center forward in Graf Sharp's team.

Because he scored more goals!

For Ajax, Sneijder and the team's forward Rui Rui scored one goal each, but Graf Sharp's side scored five goals in one breath, which made Ye Qiu almost vomit blood. , Scolding this guy for being too ruthless.

"Roland, go back and investigate and find out what this kid is like. He is as thin as a monkey, but he can score goals like that. I'll fuck him!" Ye Qiu gave me a very angry expression.

Roland looked mournful. He felt that Ye Qiu didn't care about losing, but was competing with a striker of the opponent. Isn't this a very frustrating thing?

But thinking so, he still decided to follow suit. Who told him to listen to Ye Qiu now?

"Okay, everyone!" Ye Qiu ignored Roland's thoughts behind him, and walked directly to the players, "Don't be so sad, you lose if you lose, the key is that we need to know how to lose and why?"

Having said that, Ye Qiu pointed at Ned, "Wesley, tell me!"

Sneijder is still a young lady now, with the half-inch haircut requested by De Tokmoster, hindering the discipline of the youth training camp, he dare not make any resistance to Ye Qiu, but he is not convinced in his heart , after all, he has been receiving a different education all along.

"I think the reason for our loss is that your request is very different from the usual club's request!" The kid was blunt, but after he finished speaking, he raised his head worriedly and glanced at it secretly. Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu was not as unhappy as he imagined, but nodded and pointed at Maduro, "What about you?"

"I think Wesley is right. The opponent's strength is not strong. If we play as usual, we will not mess up or lose. Instead, we will mess up ourselves in order to meet your requirements!" Ma Du Luo's tone was slightly better, but obviously they both felt that the reason for the loss was Ye Qiu's overly demanding requirements.

There is a saying that one general is incompetent and exhausts the whole army to death, Ye Qiu's mandatory request is indeed to bear a great responsibility.

Of course, it is the youth team now, and the score of 2:5 can be seen everywhere in youth team games. The only thing that can be said is that they lost to an opponent that should not have lost, but Ye Qiu is already mentally prepared for this, so Also don't care.

"There is a certain truth in what you said, but I also want you to understand one thing. If you continue to play football in the way you used to, even if you win today, even if you enter the first team in the future, you will not be able to win. It's hard to be competitive in the Europa League because you're going in the wrong direction!"

In fact, in the history of Ajax, after Waters stepped down, Michael van Prager invited Ko Adrianse, although the Dutch coach did not achieve anything in Ajax However, he made a series of innovations to Ajax. These innovations have profoundly affected Ajax in the future and laid the foundation for later generations.

Sometimes reformists are like this, the predecessors plant trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade!

Of course, Ye Qiu doesn't want to become a predecessor who planted trees, he also hopes that he can become a descendant who enjoys the shade.

"The club has reached a consensus on this, so I will be allowed to coach the B2 team. I also believe that as long as you follow the method I said, you will be able to achieve success. At that time, the club will promote the whole set of youth training. Reform, even the first team, you will adapt to the new style of the first team better than anyone else!"

This is a big cake, a big cake drawn by Ye Qiu.

If he wins, the first team will definitely change, and what he said will be fulfilled by then, but what if he loses and everyone leaves?

But it was obvious that the first team was inexplicably attractive to this group of 15-year-olds, and what Ye Qiu said was right, if the club didn't believe in him, how could they let him coach the B2 team?

…………

…………

After returning to Amsterdam from Doetinchem, the first thing Ye Qiu saw was Waters.

"What's the matter with you? Our strength is better than our opponent, how could we lose 2:5?" Waters' tone was even a little bit reproachful, because Ye Qiu lost, and he also lost face.

More importantly, just now, Westhof's team defeated the opponent 2-0 at home. Van der Vaart scored twice alone. This is tantamount to slapping the reformists. Lager's complexion was not very good-looking.

"Winning or losing on the football field is a common matter in military affairs. Besides, the B2 team has just made adjustments, and many things need to be adapted. As I said earlier, it is understandable that the early results were poor. Didn't you also have no objections before?"

Ye Qiu was also a little dissatisfied. After all, Waters was too impatient.

Before Ye Qiu got angry with Waters and Van Prager, there was no way to guarantee the results in the early stage of the reform. Both of them also affirmed Ye Qiu, and even Van Prager promised that even after two months If Ye Qiu loses, he will find a way to keep Ye Qiu. Of course, it will be difficult to reuse him.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, just because Westhof's team won the ball, Waters became anxious.

After all, a newcomer is a newcomer, greedy for success, impatient, these are big disadvantages, especially for a football head coach, this kind of personality of Waters is absolutely unacceptable.

But now, for the time being, Ye Qiu has no way to defend himself, and he is not going to persuade Waters any more.

This guy has the same temper as when he played football back then. Relying on his team's three-game winning streak, he began to think that it is not difficult to coach a team and lead the team to victory. Ball is unforgiving.

Persuading him at this time will only backfire in the end.

On the other hand, let's look at Leo Benhak and Westerhoff. Although they are rivals, Ye Qiu has to admit that these two people are indeed much higher than Waters in terms of character and bearing. Come on, especially Leo Benhak, this man is definitely an old fox, and Waters is not enough for him to play.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu felt bored for no reason. He didn't like this kind of intrigue, he liked a relaxed environment, so he also made up his mind that if he lost two months later, he would lose. No more Ajax.

If he wins, he will choose to leave after finishing this season.

The water in this pond is too deep and too muddy, it's not suitable for him!
Just as he was making up his mind, Roland walked over from behind.

"The striker you asked me to check has been found out. Here is his information!" Roland handed him the report directly.

Ye Qiu took it casually, opened it, and his eyes lit up, "Damn it, it turned out to be him!"
