The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 604 Open a small stove
In De Tokmoster of Ajax, everyone knows that Jan Odd Ricklink has two nicknames, one is that he is familiar and rumored by the outside world, and makes him somewhat proud [Hawkeye], this means that he has excavated and cultivated many, many stars for this team in the past so many years of Ajax.

There is also a nickname called a spy, this is because in the eyes of many people, whether it is players or coaches, Rick Link is always sneaky, sneaking and watching from the sidelines, and then creates points for you from time to time What kind of surprise, for example, suddenly came up to point out your mistakes, etc., and he always has a straight face, very serious and cold.

In Ye Qiu's words, Rick Link is typical with a cold face and a warm heart.

After Rick Link entered Theobald Training Base and took over the Tottenham Hotspur Youth Academy, he began to resolutely implement the series of rules and regulations formulated by Ye Qiu, and even added some things himself.

Tottenham Hotspur's youth academy attaches great importance to scientific training, which is in the same line as Ajax.

You know, there are generally two types of youth training models in the world now. One is similar to Brazil, South America, Africa and other countries. They adopt street youth training. Playing football year after year, in this way to train young players, and then enter professional teams after they emerge.

Another is similar to the Dutch youth training, which trains players in the most scientific way, and then trains and hone the players through high-level competitions. Therefore, in De Tokmost, which has the highest level of youth training in the Netherlands, the youth team has never Neither played low-level warm-up matches.

As for the differences in the youth training in the Netherlands, such as the differences between Ajax’s youth training philosophy and Gufrenz’s scientific training, in fact, the foundations of both sides are the same, but one side pays more attention to tactical indoctrination, while the other side thinks Personal technique is more important, but the fundamentals are the same.

Rick Link came to London with the title of Director of Ajax Youth Training. Not long ago, when he represented Tottenham Hotspur in the England Youth Training Conference, the founder of the British football youth training system, Fulham Youth academy director Hugh Jennings once highly praised his ability and Ajax's youth training level.

"All modern ideas about how to develop young players started with Ajax, they are the originators!"

Hugh Jennings wants to use this sentence to call on more English youth players to learn from Tottenham Hotspur and Ajax, and learn from these two teams, as well as Rick Link, etc. Some advanced concepts have been learned from professional youth training experts.

At that time, Rick Link also expressed his opinion. He believed that the most important resource for youth training is the youth training coach. Only excellent youth training coaches can train the best players. In the Netherlands, there are a lot of youth training The coaches are all professional players, even former international players, which is a great tradition.

In addition, he also feels that youth training is not a fun game, there should be competition and pressure, so that young players can be urged to study hard and make progress. If there is no pressure in youth training, then they will no longer work hard to improve motivation.

After entering Tottenham Hotspur, Rick Link made some rules. For example, players in the youth training academy have to undergo a fat content test every week. To be below 17%, both indicators come from Ajax.

Considering Ajax's geographical location, climate and environment, as well as the style of Dutch football, it is very similar to the Premier League and has a lot in common with Tottenham Hotspur's football style, so This standard can be shared.

And Rick Link is very strict. The first inspection exceeded the standard, and he only gave dietary advice, but the second inspection exceeded the standard, and he directly followed the dietary regulation, arranged for a nutritionist to prescribe a diet plan, enforced it, and carried out special training every day. Lose fat in the shortest possible time.

Unlike in Ajax, when he came to Tottenham Hotspur, Rick Link felt as if he had entered the vast and boundless ocean from a small lake that was stretched to the left and right, and he could express his ideas to the fullest. Moreover, many of Ye Qiu's concepts are very similar to his, such as emphasizing overall speed, so the physical fitness test of daily training is more about 30-meter sprints and back-and-forth running, emphasizing this speed.

Don't look at Rick Link's fierceness. In fact, his fierceness is only on the surface. He has developed many strategies secretly. For example, the training sessions of young players are only three times a week, and the older players have five times. Every now and then, Theobald would have some event, like a group outing, or whatever, that Rick Link suggested.

Of course, Tottenham Hotspur is also willing to invest in youth training, so he and his team can implement it. In Ajax, the finances themselves are not rich, and it is difficult to do this.

In addition, Tottenham Hotspur attaches great importance to the help brought by high technology. For example, they have used some high-tech equipment on the training ground early, such as sensors and so on. Almost every corner has a high-definition camera shooting and recording a stream of data and video.

To reflect the importance Tottenham Hotspur attaches to players, there is no need to mention common things such as jerseys, socks, and football boots, because many teams use these things, but the most inconspicuous shin pads are obviously different up.

Ergonomic design, more breathable and protective hard plastic material, equipped with ankle sleeves, adjustable straps, EVA foam padding and air hole design, etc. These shin guards seem to be very professional in other people's homes Very high-tech gadgets are very common in Tottenham Hotspur players, that is, the gadgets used by the youth team.

The shin guards of Tottenham Hotspur's first-team players are all tailor-made. They invited the R & D personnel of Adidas to work together to divide the players' legs into three rigid body links: thigh, calf and foot, and then use these three The two points in the middle of each rigid body link are the origin, and then use the principle of the physical pendulum vibration center to accurately calculate the length of the shin guards that the player needs to protect, and combine the player's leg shape, length, muscles, etc. Design shin guards.

To put it bluntly, the money invested in a shin pad by Tottenham Hotspur can allow other teams to buy the shin pads that a team needs, and this thing you usually don't feel at all. If it doesn't come out, only the player knows in his heart whether it will work for you.

Many people say that Ye Qiu is very stingy in the transfer market, but Ye Qiu invests very generously in this area. He often said that the money invested in reducing players' injuries is worse than signings. Good deal.

Therefore, there are so many skilled players in the Tottenham Hotspur team, and they are constantly being violated every game. Why is the injury rate not high?And Arsenal is also a technical team, but there are frequent serious and serious injuries?
It makes sense to blame the fierce and fast-paced confrontation in the Premier League, but isn't it also the reason for not taking good self-protection measures?
Rick Link walked around the training ground of the youth training camp and found no major problems. Many of the current youth training coaches were brought by Ajax's De Tokmoster. Experience They are all rich, and some of them were trained by Ye Qiu in the past few years, so the problem is not too big.

Walking out of the youth training area, Rick Link walked to the first team training area through Central Park.

At this time, on one of the training grounds of the first team, several staff members and coaches were training separately with Cavani, which is what many fans commonly call a small fire.

Cavani faced the goal, Courtois stood in front of the goal and guarded the goal. Behind Wa, there are several high-definition video cameras set up by the staff facing different angles, and several others are placed on the left, right and behind of Cavani, and some of them are specially aimed at the bottom of him. , that is, to photograph the contact between the heel and the ball when kicking and shooting.

There are coaches who keep taking the ball from the left and right sides. Their passing angles and strengths are different, but they basically pass into the area where Cavani is located, allowing the Uruguayan to grab the ball, but there is one requirement , You must touch the ball with one foot. If you can directly kick, you can directly kick. If you can’t directly kick, you must pass the ball directly to the surrounding coaches who keep changing positions.

Inside Tottenham Hotspur, this kind of small talk is ridiculed as a torture room, because the players who are small talk are equivalent to being abused by several coaches in turn, but this training method can still improve the players. Obviously, the premise is that you have to learn something from it.

Ye Qiu hopes that what Cavani learns is the feeling of the first shot, as well as the ability to quickly identify the position of his teammates under the dense defense in the frontcourt, and the ability to play the ball with one kick, and these are undoubtedly for Cavani For example, his stopping skills are not solid enough to shoot or pass after stopping the ball like Van Persie, so he can only go this way.

Rick Link watched several coaches abuse Cavani, and he also found it funny. Many fans thought it was easy for stars, such as Falcao last season. In fact, the coaching staff of Tottenham Hotspur I didn't give Falcao a small lesson, and his progress in Tottenham Hotspur was also very obvious, which led to his almost crazy number of goals.

Now Tottenham Hotspur's key cultivation trident is the trident of Cavani, Messi, Ribery, and David Silva and Cesc Fabregas inserted in the midfield. Cesc Fabregas has a stronger and better scoring ability. He has scored double-digit goals and assists for two consecutive seasons.

Rick Link walked into the research center next to the training building, which belonged to Peter Brandt.

"You're here!" To Rick Link's surprise, it turned out that Ye Qiu, Mauro Tassotti, Roland and other first-team coaching staff were also there, and the control room of the meditation room was full of people, Bobby? Harms focused on the display screen above.

The No.1 viewing angle is being used on the display to show some imaginative running and observations of a player during the game, and if Rick Link guessed correctly, this video should be the player’s The camera is worn on the eyes or on the forehead, because only in this way can it better reflect the player's observation and the surrounding situation.

For example, if a player twists his head, what he observes is captured in the video, which is very clear and clear at a glance.

"Raul?" Rick Link asked Fatty Luo beside him.

"Yeah!" Fatty Luo nodded, "During the training period of the national team, I organized a few internal games to shoot. Thanks to Raul's cooperation, several miniature cameras were damaged, and the coaching staff and technical team worked overtime overnight. Pick and edit."

Rick Link could figure out from it that this short video of about half an hour gathered all the essence, not to mention costing the team money, but also spending a lot of energy and brainpower, let alone time.

This suggestion was suggested by Bobby Harms, and Ye Qiu also thought it was feasible, so he gave it a try.

Lying in the meditation room is Messi, who is connected to some testing equipment, including testing heart rate. These training grounds of the first team and the youth academy are also used in order to understand the level of training of a player, such as whether Tired or something.

At this moment, Messi is lying on an ergonomic reclining chair in the meditation room, wearing a helmet, and his whole head is covered in the helmet. After a short period of hypnosis before, he has entered a semi-hypnotic state, Now you can observe Raul's most creative and insightful running connections in the past few training games in the most intuitive way, and how Raul observes the surrounding situation and makes judgments.

Ye Qiu spoke highly of Raul, thinking that he knew everything about the situation around him, as if he was watching a video, but this did not mean that Raul was born with a third eye, but that he had the ability to observe the surrounding environment. Ability, this ability is reflected in his every move on the court.

The meditation room has always been used to help players improve their own flaws and shortcomings, but now Bobby Harms and Ye Qiu want to use him to try to train players' brains and spirits, such as developing some players' Competition awareness, through some ways to improve their game space insight, etc., are things that are difficult to learn in training.

Next, the team will continue to shoot running videos of Raul and some other positions and types of players in the team, and then convert them into some data of the team, extract the essence of them, and save them for future training and coaching.

This No.1 perspective, coupled with the role of the helmet in the meditation room, enables the players who are trained in it to obtain the greatest sense of substitution, and through the semi-hypnotic state, the players have a more personal experience, and also Definitely learn more from it.

Of course, this kind of training is really troublesome and requires a lot of investment, but Ye Qiu seems to be more ambitious.

"If the effect is good, we can make it into a 3D effect some day, just like Avatar!" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Avatar, the biggest box office hit movie in 2009 in the United States and even in the world, the biggest selling point is that James Cameron created the most gorgeous and best 3D effect in history, and the reason why Ye Qiu wants to make the training video into 3D, In fact, it is to further enhance the player's experience in the training process.

"Avatar has invested more than 2 million US dollars, are you willing?" Peter Brandt said with a smile on the side. He vowed that if Ye Qiu is willing to invest more, the 3D effect will not be a problem at all, and he has enough confidence.

Ye Qiu smiled, but didn't answer directly, "Let's see the effect first!"

Peter Brandt knew that there was hope for what Ye Qiu said, and if he just wanted to turn the video captured on the training ground into a 3D effect, there was actually no need to invest hundreds of millions or tens of millions. That is, $200 million to introduce equipment and some simple processing technologies, or hire professionals to record and post-production.

Of course, this $200 million was nothing to Ye Qiu, or even Tottenham Hotspur.

You know, recently Leaf Technology is negotiating a sponsorship business with AXA Insurance from France, that is, in addition to providing insurance business for Tottenham Hotspur, the world's largest insurance company also sponsors Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham's jersey, but neither a training suit nor a chest ad, but the inside of the jersey.

In the last season, Tottenham Hotspur has realized that the inside of the jersey can also be placed with advertisements, because Tottenham Hotspur scored many goals, and the sponsors advertised on the inside of the jersey. After a goal, the players all pulled up their jerseys, and at that time all the eyes of the fans all over the world were on the players, and it was a close-up.

Of course, the premise of doing this is that the pulled up jersey cannot cover the chest advertisement, so this requires a good coordination of the position.

If this transaction is successful, it can bring in an income of 500 million euros a year!
In addition to the advertisement inside the jersey, Tottenham Hotspur will also add advertisements on the cuffs of the jersey. At present, many companies have expressed interest. It is estimated that the annual sponsorship income will reach 300 million euros, while the team's training uniform Sponsorship will also increase in price, but Vodafone is very interested in continuing to add sponsorship, and it is expected that the annual sponsorship fee will increase to 1000 million euros.

Peter Kenyon's commercial operation team is undoubtedly very successful, and is heading for greater success. Judging from the current operating conditions, it is expected that by 2011, Tottenham Hotspur's entire operating income will once again set a new record. A new peak in history.

According to the predictions of Ye Qiu and Bobby Harms, based on the current situation of Tottenham Hotspur's players, this team wants to re-display the combat effectiveness of a top team, especially what a wealthy team must have. The multi-line combat ability will take at least two seasons, that is, until Neymar, Ramsey and others grow up to around 20 years old.

By that time, after reorganization and tactical adjustments, Tottenham Hotspur will once again show its invincible strength across Europa. In the two years of adjustment, Tottenham Hotspur's main battlefield is still in the Premier League. league.

For the current Tottenham Hotspur, ensuring the qualification for the Champions League and ensuring the dominance and leading position of the Premier League is the top priority for Tottenham Hotspur. It is a bonus question.
