The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 93 Who Can Convince Me?
The West Stand of the Arenal Stadium is undoubtedly the core of Ajax.

Behind the stands, the second and third floors are the administrative center of the club, where the management of Ajax works, and the security control room and multimedia room of the Arena Stadium are also arranged on the third floor of the stands. It can be said to be very important.

In the middle of the west stand facing the stadium is a rostrum with 778 seats. In every game, Ajax chairman Van Prager will sit on the rostrum with important staff of the management to provide for the stadium. Cheer and applause for the players who fought on the field.

Between the stands on the first floor and the stands on the second floor, there is a ring of boxes and VIP rooms. There are 47 rooms in total. The location and view are just right. It can be said to be an excellent place to watch the Ajax game. The price is naturally the most expensive. It's really not easy for rich people to come here to watch football.

In Amsterdam, many people are proud of being able to hold Ajax box season tickets, which represents status and status.

Korner is a well-known lawyer in Amsterdam, but he is not a very rich man, but this does not prevent him from entering the VIP box at the Arena, because he has a group of very rich friends , and Korner always boasted that he represented the interests of this group of friends.

"In the entire Ajax board of directors, few people would like that Chinese man. He has almost nothing to like. Whether it is character or ability, he is far from worthy of our Ajax!"

Everyone knew that Kerna didn't like Ye Qiu, and he was the one who pulled the call for Ye Qiu's firing.

If he hadn't been frequently interviewed by the media and reporters, I believe such voices would have been much smaller, and Ye Qiu's pressure would not have been so great, but now, Korner seems to have seen the dawn of victory.

This season, it will be difficult for Ajax to prevent Eindhoven from winning the championship, unless there is a miracle!

According to the military order Ye Qiu made at the beginning, if he couldn't win the league championship, he had to leave get out of class and leave.

"Is this on your behalf, or on behalf of all the directors?"

Opposite Korna is an old Dutchman, he is a well-known Ajax fan in Amsterdam, the honorary member of the club, Schoufat, they are important members of the club's elderly fans committee, in Ajax fans The group plays a pivotal role.

Let's put it this way, although many people in the Senior Fans Committee have retired, they are either senior executives of Ajax in the past, or wealthy and powerful fans in the early years, or they have been loyal to the club for decades. Loyal fans, so they have a lot of weight among Ajax fans.

Schuffart's words were very sharp, which made Kona a little embarrassed. After a smile, he said, "I believe that most of the directors don't trust him, don't they?"

After all, he is a lawyer, with good eloquence, and knows how to change concepts secretly, avoiding important things and paying attention to minor ones.

"Chairman Van Prager is undoubtedly a great chairman, but now he is a bit behind the times. We are Ajax with a glorious history. Why should we hand over so much power to the club? It can be said that it is in the hands of an unfamiliar and unqualified Chinese, so why should he deserve it?"

It has to be said that what Korner said really hit the heart of most of the directors.

Ye Qiu lacked qualifications, but Van Prager entrusted him with important tasks. This must have made many people unhappy, because the lessons learned by Waters were right in front of them. Why did Van Prager continue to take risks?

People who don't know Dutch football will not know how extensive contacts and status Ajax has in the Netherlands.

Take a look at the current Dutch coaches, Van Gaal is from Ajax, Advocaat was Michels' assistant, Adrianse was Van Gaal's assistant, Ronald Koeman was at Witte Stan did a good job, and former club stars like Van Basten, Blind, Rijkaard, etc. have now started coaching.

Looking at the entire Netherlands, at least half of the football celebrities have a relationship with Ajax, which is the real reason why Ajax has a pivotal position in the history of Dutch football.

But now, this club is in the hands of a Chinese who has no qualifications and only won a Dutch Cup for the club. It is a lie to say that the directors are not happy, have no worries, and have no doubts. Erna, precisely took advantage of their mentality.

"I have received the news that Advocaat will leave Rangers at the end of the season, Adriance is not doing well at Willem II, Ronald Koeman is ready to take over anytime, anywhere. Ajax, even Van Basten, Blind and Rijkaard, I believe they are all ready!"

Korner looked at the members of the Ajax Senior Fans Committee in front of him, encouraged his eloquent tongue, and prepared to persuade them to agree to the next series of actions of the several directors headed by himself, even including The board of directors forced the palace.

"What we need is pure Ajax, we need people who know more and are familiar with Ajax's history to represent the club, and I believe, Edvocaat, Adrianse, even Van Gaal , they are the most suitable candidates, as for the Chinese, let him go to hell!"

Kerner pointed to the distance through the large glass window of the box, obviously pointing at Ye Qiu in front of the home team's coaching bench below the home court, but this was only his first step, and the rest would come one after another.

After hearing what Korner said, several directors began to respond one after another. They bought Ajax shares with money, but they may not know football, but they do know one thing very clearly. That is, no matter if it was Adriansea, Coman or Advocaat, picking one at random made them feel more respectable than Ye Qiu.

Although, in the past year, Dutch newspapers, large and small newspapers, and various occasions in Amsterdam, the number of discussions about this Chinese person is rapidly increasing, but they still feel that the Chinese are not worthy of running Ajax!

Several members of the Senior Fans Committee glanced at each other, and immediately all looked at Schuffart and another person sitting beside him, Andre Kraan.

The latter is the former high-level of Ajax. He used to be the chairman of the board of directors of Ajax, the director of management, and the right-hand man of Van Prager. After retiring two years ago, he became the chairman of the Ajax Senior Fans Committee. chairman.

At this time, everyone looked at him, and Andre Kraan chuckled.

This made Korner think that Kraan was supporting him, and immediately laughed again: "I can make a joke, today's game will become another shame for us, he can't bring Ajax glory , will only shame us!"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a burst of thunderous cheers from the entire Arena.

Looking out from the floor-to-ceiling window of the box, I saw all the Ajax fans rushed out of their seats, cheering loudly. The entire Arena was like a raging sea, filled with deafening noises. Cheers.

"The ball has been scored!!!" The live commentator's hoarse voice came from the radio.

"A single goal from Arjen Robben, Ajax took the lead in breaking the opponent's goal!!!"

"Let's take another look at this wonderful goal, an overhead pass from Sneijder!!!"

"Yes, this is a very beautiful teamwork, but we must also clearly see that the head coach Ye Qiu decisively adopted the adjustment of slowing down the offensive after the opening attack was unfavorable, focusing on attacking the right side, paralyzing Ai. Because of Dhoven's defense, they suddenly played a quick counterattack from the left, and Eindhoven was caught off guard!"

"It was a beautiful, very targeted attack, let's congratulate Arjen Robben, he will be our hero at Ajax, if we end up coming back against PSV this season, this goal It is bound to be recorded in the history of Ajax, because of it, let us see the hope of the league championship again!"

Amidst the contagious shouts on the radio, everyone in the box rushed out of their seats, raising their arms high, even this group of aged fans in their seventies and eighties were all blushing, looking like they couldn't say no. Excited, shouting Ajax's name.

This is football, regardless of gender, regardless of age, rich or poor!
Only Korner stood there in a daze. He was just saying that Ye Qiu would definitely lose and that this match would definitely be a shame for Ajax, but in the blink of an eye, Ajax scored a goal. , which made him feel as if his face was slapped fiercely by Ye Qiu, the slap turned red and swollen, and he continued to slap him.

If it were someone else, I would really wish to find a hole in the ground and drill down quickly, but he is a lawyer after all, he can talk, and he has to have a thick skin, so he just smiled and clapped pretendingly.

"In the end, it was the direct descendants of Ajax who saved the team!"

He emphasized the direct lineage of Ajax, and Ye Qiu obviously did not belong to this category.

Of course Schuffart knew his wishful thinking. They are all good people. They are so old. What kind of troubles and tricks have they never seen?It's just that sometimes, they are also weighing some things.

"Roben was brought to Ajax by Ye Qiu, so this can't be regarded as a direct line!" Schuffat smiled and uncovered Korner's scar. He didn't understand football is his biggest problem, but he himself seemed to be I don't understand these at all.

Kerner smiled awkwardly, but he didn't understand the question.

"Advocaat is very good, but he is not young, he is a bit stubborn. Rangers have not performed well this season. The Scottish Super League champion already belongs to Celtic, and Celtic's head coach Martin O'Neill is only 49 years old. , can be regarded as a young coach, but it brought a huge change to the Celtics, and suppressed Advocaat with an absolute advantage."

Andre Kraan took Schuffart's words, obviously his attitude is also on Van Prager's side.

"Wanderers did not perform well in Europe this season. They ranked third in the Champions League group stage and stopped at the top 32 in the UEFA Cup. But now we have reached the semi-finals. A coach who has reached the semi-finals and has a chance to win the championship, but hires a coach who stops at the top 32?"

Facing Andre Kraan's seemingly gentle but actually full of ridicule question, Koerner couldn't answer it either.

"Furthermore, Adrianse, two years ago, he was really talented and outstanding, but for one thing, he has never been able to make a breakthrough in European competitions, and in the last two seasons, William II's ranking is At around 10, Koeman is relatively good, but last season he was fourth, and this season he is temporarily seventh, and their UEFA Cup record this season has only reached the second round, and they were eliminated!"

When he said this, Andre Kraan stood up with a smile, glanced at Korner, and the group of so-called Ajax fans around him. Judgmental, but more just rich people who are revealing their ignorance of football, he suddenly feels pathetic.

"If any of you can convince me and my friends why we have to fire one, lead the team in the first season, temporarily rank second in the league, reach the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup, enter the Dutch Cup If the head coach of the semi-finals instead invites those who have worse results than him to replace him, I believe that we will seriously consider your suggestions!"

Including Korner, no one present was able to answer Andre Kraan's words.

"Sorry, everyone, I have watched Ajax games for decades, I still prefer to be in the open-air stands, in the box, I can't feel the passion of football, I will go first!"

Andre Klaan smiled apologetically, but in fact he wanted to distinguish himself from Kerner and the others.

But he had just walked less than two steps, when he suddenly thought of something, turned around and looked at Koerner, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Koner, do you think this match will be a shame?" I saw him shaking his head constantly, "I am contrary to your opinion. I think this game will become the starting point of Ajax's Jedi counterattack!"

After finishing speaking, he ignored Korna's face that had turned into a pig's liver, and walked out of the box.

Several members of the respected senior fans committee also followed Klaan. Obviously, this time, Korner's wishful thinking fell through, and this also made him very annoyed, scolding Klaan and others in the box. people, but there's nothing he can do with them because he's just a director!
…………

…………

Ye Qiu obviously didn't know what happened in the boxes on the stands, but he was very aware of the crisis he was facing.

So this game, he is determined to win.

After taking the lead with a goal, Ajax did not back down conservatively, but continued to focus the two sides' struggles on the midfield, and did not press all the way, because that would be risky, and he has no It is necessary to take risks.

After Eindhoven was taken the lead, they were a little angry and began to attack aggressively, especially playing very active on the wing. They wanted to use the advantage of the wing attack to suppress Ajax, even if they couldn't To regain the score in the first half, at least the initiative and momentum must be regained.

But in the 42nd minute, Ajax made a counterattack after stealing the ball. Kivu got the ball and passed it diagonally to the right to find Van der Meyde. On the right side of Wen's penalty area.

Although Bouma caught up in time, Van der Meyde picked a pass to the front of the penalty area. Ibrahimovic was like a heavy tank. On the one hand, he used his body to firmly block Hovland behind him, and went out first Pick the ball with your feet.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's sense of the ball is indeed very good. This pick directly picked the ball past Hovland, the Dutch central defender made an empty shot, and the pressure on Ibrahimovic was greatly reduced. When the ball fell to him When he was in front of him, he was ahead of Nikiforov again, with a direct push shot from the inside of his right foot, almost just right to send the ball into the goal against the right post.

Waterous's save was finally beyond reach, 2:0!

All the Ajax fans in the audience cheered crazily. They were all elated in the stands. Many fans excitedly stretched their scarves and sang Ajax fan songs.

There is no melody, but the melody of this chorus composed of tens of thousands of fans is very shocking.

In the stands, a group of fans began to pull out strips of banners and cards, hoping that the club would keep the head coach Ye Qiu, and drive away the group of directors who only know about profits and have nothing but money!
"Ajax is indeed the sufferer of PSV. Ye Qiu once again pushed Gretz and his PSV into an awkward situation. If they lose to Ajax in this game, then Even if PSV win the championship, it will only be a humiliating victory, because they lost to their biggest competitor!"

This is also the calculation in Ye Qiu's heart. Regardless of whether I can win the championship in the end, I will not make it easier for you. If I want you to win the championship, you will only feel humiliated and useless!

"Gretz's situation is very difficult now, Ajax's offensive is very fast, here is the Arena, he must find an effective way to restrain Ajax's attack as soon as possible, I believe that during the intermission, It will give him time and opportunity to better think about countermeasures."

Following the on-site commentator's analysis, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

In this way, Ajax entered the intermission with a 2:0 lead, which made this group of Ajax players who walked off the field hold their heads high, with indescribable confidence, and their bodies were full of excitement. Full of fighting spirit, he looked ahead with unwavering eyes.

Is this the quasi-Eredivisie champion everyone is talking about?

Not so good!

In front of us Ajax, they still have to kneel down!

Because we are proud Ajax!

But the proudest and happiest is the group of Ajax fans who came to the Arena. They sent the players into the locker room with high team anthems, and at the same time cheered for their second half with passionate singing. Cheer.

Because they believe that this will bring courage and strength to the head coach and players!
