The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 738 Tides

The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the entire Louis II stadium resounded with joyful cheers.

3:1, the scoreboard shows the scores of the two teams. After entering the 10th and [-]th minute, both sides scored a goal. Messi of Tottenham Hotspur received a wonderful pass from Hazzard for the assist. Tottenham scored their third before Sturridge pulled back for Chelsea before the end of the game.

However, Chelsea's goals are more because Tottenham Hotspur have already won.

But even so, Ye Qiu was still a little dissatisfied with the team conceding the ball at the last moment, because he believed that some players did not have enough concentration in the final stage, especially after the team made continuous substitution adjustments, there were some problems, which caused Chelsea to catch the ball. I took a chance, but the game was won after all.

As soon as the game ended, Tottenham Hotspur rushed out of the bench, and everyone rushed into the stadium excitedly, even those players who did not participate in the game but were still brought to Monaco by the team were all in the stands Celebrating with the fans, including Ribéry who is injured.

The staff quickly entered the stadium and began to prepare for the podium. After all, the European Super Cup is also a trophy.

After Ye Qiu gave high-fives to the assistants around him, he saw Mourinho walking over with his hands on his waist with an aggrieved expression on his face, so Ye Qiu greeted him with a smile on his face, "Hey, I feel how?"

Mourinho turned around and looked at the Tottenham Hotspur players on the field, "I didn't lose to you, but to these players. Their personal abilities are too strong!"

Is this a reason?Maybe!

Ye Qiu accepted such self-consolation and justification, and chuckled, "You know what? The feeling you give me is that you have always lived in the environment when you first debuted, and you didn't think about making progress." Pausing deliberately, Seeing that Mourinho was a little annoyed, he added with a smile: "Of course, compared to those rookies, you did a great job, just like an old rookie."

Mourinho wanted to be angry, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only smile bitterly in the end.

In fact, he understood Ye Qiu's meaning very well, because the first step of almost all professional coaches is often obtained in a very embarrassing environment, such as Mourinho, although the first stop of his career is the Portuguese super giants Benfica, but his real first steps in his career came at Leiria.

At that time, Leiria did not have any rich resources. It was just a middle-lower team that was squeezed by the giants, and even the selection of a head coach was affected by all parties. Mourinho could play in such a team It is conceivable what kind of resources he got, and he was a rookie at the time, how could he get much support?

But in such a team, Mourinho won the honor by relying on his very realistic coaching style, which seeks to achieve the goal and does not seek the process, and he was also sober during that period of time. I realized that although such a tactic cannot play the offensive football that fans like, it can bring the team very stable results.

When he arrived in Porto, Mourinho felt more coaching pressure, especially from the chairman Da Costa, so he continued to stick to his set of tactics and philosophy when he was in Leiria, because he knew very well that he did not want to If you lose, you can't afford to lose.

From Leiria to Porto to Chelsea to Inter Milan, Mourinho has always adhered to his own set of tactical concepts, but this does not mean that he does not want to make progress, and he has always been trying to use limited offensive resources. , Find richer offensive methods, create better offensive effects to please the fans, and achieve a double harvest of results and process.

But sometimes this world is very realistic, how much you pay, how much you can gain.

When you are stingy with investing in offense in order to ensure the stability of defense, then no matter how you play, you will not be able to achieve the desired effect.

In fact, when he was at Inter Milan, Mourinho had already played different tricks in the offense. Otherwise, if the tactical environment in Italy remains the same, it will take only a few games to be restrained to death by others .

It’s just that everything remains the same, using the smallest investment to play the simplest and most effective offense in exchange for the biggest gain, Mourinho still can’t get rid of this crux, which can be said to be his biggest bottleneck so far .

"Hearing you say that, I think you are praising me, do you want to thank you?" Mourinho asked tit for tat.

Ye Qiu shook his head, "No, I'm not praising you, but I don't understand. Do you really feel that you are under so much pressure and need you to prove yourself?"

Mourinho sensed right away that Ye Qiu actually revealed some sincerity in the truth, rather than adding insult to injury or being sarcastic. In fact, after so many years, some of his complaints towards Ye Qiu have faded away, and he has never Ye Qiu also learned a lot from him, at least this person is worthy of deep friendship.

Everyone has a different personality, and even in the same environment, different personalities will lead to different judgments for each person, let alone the environment in which each person is fundamentally different, at least Ye Qiu has enough The qualifications and chips said, I don't pay attention to the result, and I don't need to prove anything to anyone.

That's because he was successful, and very successful!

"Whenever I have won more Champions League trophies than you, I will feel that I don't need to prove myself!"

Mourinho's words almost made Ye Qiu fall over, "Please, you have no hope in this life!"

"We'll see!" Mourinho pointed at Ye Qiu provocatively.

Seeing the Portuguese walk away, Ye Qiu also shook his head and smiled wryly. This Mourinho is very stubborn and persistent. He will do one thing without hesitation and insist on doing it.

Sometimes Ye Qiu feels that Mourinho and Guardiola are very similar. Both of them are crazy and want to kill all risks in the cradle. The difference is that they kill risks in different ways. Neo chose a defense that many fans looked down upon rather unflatteringly, while Guardiola chose to look richer and more handsome.

But that's all, deep down at the core of their bones, the essence is the same.

Ye Qiu can understand that, in fact, both of them want to change, and they both know that they have to try to change, because sooner or later their opponents will find out their way clearly, and if they can't play new tricks by then, then It is a pity that they will soon be reduced to a stepping stone for a new round of famous coaches.

As the saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach. This is the truth.

When Van Gaal left Ajax, he was so beautiful and majestic. Even in the early days of coaching Bayern Munich, what a hero he was, but what happened?And after that?What now?

For being in the wave of professional football, if you don’t want to die on the beach, then you have to be a waver who will always be chasing the limelight, but even if this is the case, there is no guarantee that you will not die and chase the limelight forever, This looks very majestic and heroic, but what is contained in it is amazing dedication and tremendous pressure that outsiders cannot understand.

Just like what Ye Qiu once said, fast players will always rely on their speed unconsciously, and players with good health will always rely on their bodies. In the same way, as a head coach, when you are familiar with defense, you You will not use defense unconsciously. When you understand ball control, you will adopt a ball-control style of play. This is a kind of human subconsciousness.

Sometimes reality will make you make some choices that you know are wrong, but you still have to make them.

Tottenham Hotspur defeated Chelsea from the UEFA Super Cup, won the city derby, and won the second championship trophy of the new season, which also made the North London team praised by the media all over the world.

But after all, this is just a European Super Cup. After the media praised and the fans celebrated, more people still turned their attention to the football economic forum at the Zhenhua Hotel, because the entire Premier League has set off a wave of excitement in the last three days. A frantic wave of transfers.

Everyone knows that with the [-] teams in the Premier League signing the salary limit and debt limit clauses, the British Ministry of Labor and the players union have also accepted this proposal from the Premier League, which also proves that the salary limit and debt limit clauses There is no longer any resistance, and it will be implemented from next season.

Therefore, many teams that obviously do not meet the terms of the salary limit and debt limit at present will start to prepare to adjust the team lineup, especially for many teams including Manchester City, Manchester United, and Chelsea. Start a round of cleaning with bench players, reduce the team's salary pressure, and reduce the debt for the new season.

Among them, the cleaning of Manchester City is the most crazy. De Jong, Adam Johnson, Adebayor, Santa Cruz, Hargreaves and other substitute players were all cleaned one by one, and this round of cleaning also fattened the Premier League The middle and lower reaches of the team, such as Adam Johnson, this player contributed a lot to Manchester City last season and performed very well, but the transfer to Sunderland is only worth 1000 million pounds, which is very cost-effective.

And like De Jong, who came to Manchester City at a high price of nearly 2000 million euros back then, now the price of selling to West Ham United is only 500 million euros. Ranieri of West Ham United is grinning from ear to ear. After Mohamed Diarra, the combination of West Ham's three midfielders Toulalang, Moutinho and De Jong is also very fierce.

Coupled with Tevez, Di Maria, Falcao, Jovetic, Eto'o and Carroll's frontcourt attack combination, West Ham's lineup configuration for the new season is also very strong. Ranieri's ambition is not It's just the top four in the league, but I hope to go further, at least to strive for a higher ranking.

After cleaning up many substitutes and bench players, Manchester City introduced several high-level signings in one go on the last day of the summer transfer. David Garcia introduced Sinclair from Swansea for £600 million and Rodwell from Everton for £800 million.

However, the biggest signing still appeared on Ajax, 2000 million euros, the introduction of Ajax's main central defender, the 25-year-old Belgian Vertonghen, I hope that the latter's joining can help Manchester City further consolidate the defense .

Ajax is also the team with the most limelight in the transfer market this summer, and the two heavyweight transfers appeared on the last day of the transfer market. The top star in the team is Brazilian striker Hulk, who switched to Chelsea and is worth as much as 5000 million euros.

€7000m from two transfers, Ajax surprised everyone by selling players, but what many don't understand is that Hulk's transfer fee to Chelsea actually went into Totna Tottenham Hotspur's pocket, and Ye Qiu used all the 5000 million euros for the upcoming renovation of the new stadium.

This summer, Tottenham Hotspur's scouting system has also started to operate again, introducing many outstanding young youth players, including the Brazilian central defender Marquinhos who went to Ajax on loan. The 19-year-old Argentine defender Ballanta, and the 20-year-old midfielder Marcus Henriksen introduced from Norway's Rosenborg.

The transfer fees of these three players are all around 100 million to 200 million. Tottenham Hotspur’s scouting system decided to introduce them, and then loaned them to Ajax. Turnham Hotspur can't play the game.

And Peter de Vissel, who is optimistic about it, is a Colombian attacker, Quintero, who is only 19 years old.

Peter de Vissel spoke very highly of the young player. He believed that Quintero's skills were very delicate, his passing was very precise, and he was also very creative. He also had excellent field vision and overall view. A more typical South American No. [-] player, with excellent ball and off-ball abilities.

With a height of only 1.6 meters seven, this short player is very good at holding, dribbling and passing the ball in a small area. It is believed that as long as he is cultivated well, he has the potential to become another top star. Has a pretty good free kick technique with his left foot.

This player cannot get a work permit in Tottenham Hotspur, and the current team is full of stars, it is difficult for Quintero to get a chance, so Peter de Vissel plans to send him to Ajax, Replacing Hulk's position after leaving, and Ajax's De Boer also promised to give him more opportunities after reading the player's profile.

In addition to these four players, Tottenham Hotspur also brought in 16-year-old Aaron Halilovic from Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia, who has not yet played in any Croatian league. The rookie is also a young player that Tottenham Hotspur is very optimistic about, and is regarded as a reserve for the future.

However, after the introduction of Aaron Halilovic, Tottenham Hotspur will continue to arrange him in Dinamo Zagreb. They are going to wait until he is more mature, his technical characteristics are more stable, and his strength reaches a certain level. Switch to Tottenham Hotspur.

Moreover, Tottenham Hotspur have also reached a comprehensive cooperation agreement with Dinamo Zagreb. This company has cultivated famous names such as Boban and Prosineski, Modric, Korluka, Eduardo? Famous stars such as Da Silva, as well as well-known youth clubs with rookies such as Kovacic and Jedvic, are also full of expectations for cooperation with Tottenham Hotspur.

Everyone knows that Tottenham Hotspur has the most advanced scouting system in the world and the most outstanding youth training system, but the most influential area of ​​this team is in South America. South America is looking for a large number of outstanding young players, but Tottenham Hotspur's next focus is on Eastern Europe.

Therefore, reaching a cooperation with Tottenham Hotspur and using the power of Tottenham Hotspur to become a transit point for Eastern European stars has become a positioning for Dinamo Zagreb. With the support of Tenham Hotspur's strong software, hardware and technical capabilities, it is naturally ideal.

To be honest, for a Croatian team with a one-year youth training budget of only 100 million euros, being close to Tottenham Hotspur is undoubtedly tantamount to getting rich. After the comprehensive cooperation with Kex, the Dutch team can be described as a bumper harvest every year in the transfer market.

After signing Dinamo Zagreb, Tottenham Hotspur loaned the 17-year-old Jedvic to Dinamo Zagreb. The central defender can accumulate more game experience in Croatia, and Tottenham Hotspur's scouts will continue to track and help these young players on loan.

After several years of rapid development and lagging behind, Tottenham Hotspur's youth training model has begun to be the same as other giants' teams, that is, to adopt a net-type youth training. Tenham Hotspur first team play.

For example, Ye Qiu is very optimistic about Nick Powell, who is known as Pirlo II. After Southampton planned to strengthen the signings this season, he immediately sent Ye Qiu a loan application. Ye Qiu considered that Nick Powell It is difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to get more game accumulation, so he was loaned to Southampton.

There is also Will Hughes, this player was also loaned to Southampton by Ye Qiu, the purpose is the same, that is to accumulate more experience, if you add Nick Powell, Chambers, Lucas Moura With Coutinho, Southampton has five loan players from Tottenham Hotspur. The close relationship between the two teams is well known.

There is nothing wrong with Tottenham Hotspur's approach. The current first team is full of talents, including Vidal, Ramsey, Pogba, Phil Jones, Sandro and Eriksson who have proven themselves There are young stars with strength and outstanding performance, and there are veterans like Pirlo in charge. It is difficult for these young players to get a chance to play when they are promoted to the first team.

In this case, it is better to simply go out on loan, accumulate more experience outside, and after the strength improves, there is a chance to return to Tottenham Hotspur.

But Tottenham Hotspur's loan is not a casual loan, it is targeted. First of all, it is necessary to ensure that the team's style is in line with the player's development trend, and the player can get more money after arriving at the new team. Match opportunities, only when these two goals are achieved, Tottenham Hotspur will consider renting.

As for Neymar, Luke? Nam Hotspur fights on multiple fronts, and there are many opportunities to compete. As for the talent reserve, Tottenham Hotspur don't have to worry.

There are two genius days every season, and the competition in Tottenham Hotspur's youth academy is no less than that of the first team.

For the Genius Day this summer, Tottenham Hotspur selected a nine-year-old boy named Sac Gilsenen. He has dual citizenship of Ireland and Australia and lived in Australia before. He accepted the invitation to participate in the Genius Day. , stood out among the 16 children under the age of ten and became one of the [-] finalists. His most impressive thing was that he scored eight goals in one game alone. Give the audience the highest evaluation, genius!
Sometimes, the world of football is so cruel. Not every genius can eventually become a genius. As a football club, if Tottenham Hotspur wants to stand in the ranks of the giants forever, it has to adopt the same approach as other giants. A kind of cast-net youth training, so that the relationship between youth training and performance can be better balanced.

Therefore, sometimes, the youth training of a wealthy family is like making a wedding dress for others.
