Winger King

Chapter 100

After Mancini expressed his intention to control Ajax, De Boer did not endure for a second and went straight to work.

"I don't know what exactly drove him to say that. Although it was only the fourth month since he took over Inter Milan, he should understand one thing. The club he coached has not appeared in the Champions League for three seasons."

"To be precise, the team he coached is now a standard Europa League team. This is the reality."

"The day of winning the Champions League is not far away from them, but it is definitely not close. They are currently ranked only eighth in Serie A, the weakest among the five Serie A teams in the Europa League. These are definitely not the source of his confidence."

"Maybe someone will defend him, saying that he did not take over the team until November last year, but isn't that exactly why the club asked him to come?"

"He took over After the team, Inter Milan's record in the league was 5 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. Such a record is definitely not a qualified result for such a club with a long history. "

"If he thought that saying this could scare us, he obviously messed up. "

"I think it is a good choice to draw Inter Milan. They have many good players, but they can't show their due fighting power. This is something their head coach can't solve in a short time. "

"And we are in the best form. Our advancement to the next round should not be regarded as big news by everyone. "

After De Boer's voice fell, both the Dutch media and the Italian media used large pages to report the debate between the two head coaches.

The largest Dutch print media, Telegraaf, said in a report: "Before the start of the Europa League quarter-finals, Frank's sudden burst of aggression surprised everyone. The content of this interview is very different from his previous style."

"Based on the arrogance of the Italians, Frank gave a radical response. This move reflects the high morale of Ajax at present. The club is very determined to make a breakthrough in the Europa League."

"This is a gratifying signal. The strongest team in the Eredivisie wants to make a difference in the European war. This is something everyone is very willing to see. If we have one or two teams that make a difference in the European war every season, the Eredivisie will be qualified. "Frank's speech is very similar to that before the match against PSV Eindhoven. In his sixth season as coach of Ajax, the former Dutch player showed his ambition without any concealment." "But we also have to realize that although such expressions will have an inspiring effect on the locker room before the game, if Ajax is eliminated, it will be a major blow to many young players in the locker room." As one of the best media in the Netherlands, the Telegraph used a large space to introduce this game. The comments in the entire report were very objective, neither favoring Ajax nor badmouthing Inter Milan. Compared with the Telegraph, the Amsterdam Daily's expression is more inclined to Ajax: "Inter Milan's coach said in an interview that Ajax will not be a problem for them to win the Europa League. This frivolous expression obviously lacks respect."

"Inter Milan's coach's coaching resume cannot support his arrogance. Although his coaching resume is very bright, among the teams he coached, Lazio, Inter Milan and Manchester City all have strong financial support and the best players."

"Mancini did not produce a convincing record in his second coaching of Inter Milan. Their current league rankings cannot even make it to the Europa League next season."

"Although the opponent's lineup is stronger, they have proved by their own history and league rankings that good players do not necessarily have good results."

The head coach of their own city is playing psychological warfare with the head coaches of other leagues. The Amsterdam Daily must help.

In addition to the Amsterdam Daily's support for Ajax, most Dutch media are on the side of Ajax.

The reason is simple. Ajax has become the only Dutch team left in the European war.

Even if they are usually very fierce, the Dutch media should be united at this time.

The Dutch team's more points in the European war will help other Dutch teams qualify for the European war, and they should support Ajax.

But the reaction of the Italian media is more multifaceted, with support, ridicule, and watching the show.

The main reason why the Italian media's attitude towards Inter Milan is so different is that Inter Milan itself is not doing well.

After Mourinho won the Champions League trophy for Inter Milan, the Nerazzurri returned to its former glory in just two seasons.The "star black hole" of the past is even worse than before.

In the past three seasons, Inter Milan has only qualified for the Europa League, and even became the background board for Bale's rise.

Besides, Italian football does not expect Inter Milan to improve Italy's European ranking.

In the Champions League, Juventus has entered the European quarterfinals, and there are still five Italian teams in the Europa League.

Roma is currently ranked second in Serie A, Naples and Fiorentina are ranked fourth and fifth respectively.

From any angle, Italian football cannot expect Inter Milan to win European points for the team.

Mainly because it can't be counted on.

But Mancini is not a fuel-saving lamp. The rebellious coach in his playing days almost responded immediately.

He was still very arrogant in the interview: "I am not qualified to evaluate Ajax? Haha, this is a very ridiculous statement."

"As a coach who has achieved success in both Serie A and the Premier League, I think I have sufficient reasons to evaluate a Dutch team."

"Frank and I have both won four league titles, but the difficulty is obviously not at the same level."

"In the Dutch league, he only needs to beat two teams to win the championship trophy, but in Serie A and the Premier League, this situation will never happen."

"I just stated the objective facts, but his reaction was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, which puzzled me."

"The team he coached was eliminated in the Champions League group stage for five consecutive seasons, and then in the European Being eliminated in the round of 32 of the League Cup should not be a result to be proud of. Is it because advancing to the round of 16 of the Europa League gave him confidence? "

"I don't know, but it happened."

The day after Mancini was interviewed, De Boer immediately responded: "Mancini talked about the Champions League, and I immediately thought of the Champions League group stage two seasons ago."

"That season we were in the same group with Real Madrid, Dortmund and Manchester City."

"After learning about the group, I immediately went to see Manchester City's first-team list."

"I only had one thought at the time, my God, they actually spent so much money in the transfer market to improve the lineup. I thought they could enter the semi-finals because their lineup was so strong. "I remember that many evaluation agencies regarded Manchester City as the fourth favorite to win the Champions League that season, and everyone thought we were the weakest team in that group." "But you all know the result later. Manchester City did not win a single game in the group stage, and we won very easily when we faced them at home." "I know very well that the third place in the group is nothing to brag about, but I don't think it's shameful to lose to the runner-up and semi-finalists of the Champions League that season." "He can always coach a team with a good lineup, and Inter Milan can now field two lineups with good strength." "But based on his coaching record in previous years, our young players will not be afraid of them, because they have no There are results that match the team lineup. "

"Although most of the Ajax lineup is young people in the growth stage, I know very well that my players can win tough battles. "

"I know that coaching famous players will have more problems to deal with, but this is exactly the problem. "

"He has been coaching a big club with many star players, but he has never been able to match the fighting power. I guess he has not handled the problems in the locker room well. "

"I'm not sure. Everyone needs to learn in this regard, but he always encounters similar problems, which inevitably makes people speculate. "

Facing Mancini, who fired the first shot, De Boer's offensive this round has a feeling of cutting off the firewood and exposing the old bottom.

It's really heartbreaking!

This wave of verbal battles between the two world-famous coaches made Sun Yu very excited. He didn't expect that the two big guys were so cruel.

Especially De Boer, commenting on the other party really feels unethical.

The Dutchman's way of expression is really to be frank and straightforward, leaving no room for the other party.

De Boer was pressing hard against his former national teammate Cocu, so he certainly didn't leave any room for Mancini this time.

I wonder if Mancini was so angry after watching De Boer's interview.

Anyway, the Italian coach still looked very noble when facing the media: "I found that I made a mistake. The other party was using me to increase his exposure. He is a very smart person."

"We all know that if a Dutch head coach wants people to know him, it is not enough to just win the Dutch championship."

"For example, he has won four league championship trophies for Ajax, but people may only say that the guy is good.. "

"This is a consensus. For a head coach to go from Ajax to a big European club, in addition to the league championship, the more important thing is the Champions League results. He obviously lacks a lot in this regard. "

"So after meeting Inter Milan, he found a way to get attention, which is a smart way. "

"But this is also a very risky choice, because once we easily eliminate Ajax, everything he does during this period will become a joke. "

"But I think our chances of winning are much greater than theirs. I don't want him to be depressed, but the facts are cruel. "

......

The two of them came back and forth, and time flew to the press conference.

In this round of knockouts, Ajax played at home first and then away. This is not a good draw, but Sun Yu and his teammates feel that things are in the hands of people and there is nothing to be afraid of.

The reporter asked Mancini whether he would take an offensive posture away from home. Mancini chuckled and said: "He wants to irritate me and let us launch an offensive in the first round, because they are a team good at counterattacks, and he wants to get some benefits at home. ”

“But as a professional head coach, I will never underestimate the opponent at any time. In the case of home first and away, we only need to win a victory away to occupy a huge advantage. ”

“Of course, a draw is also acceptable. We can win the game directly when we return to our home court.”

“In the two-round knockout match, we only need to advance.”

“Haha, if I feel that the opponent is not so strong in the game, maybe I will make personnel adjustments and finish the game away.”

“Everything depends on the game situation. Wish them good luck.”

After he answered this question, a Dutch reporter immediately asked: “You just mentioned that Ajax is a team that is good at counterattacks. Then you should know that Ajax has a very good left winger. Will you arrange targeted tactics for him?”

After listening to the reporter's question, Mancini opened his eyes wide and looked at the reporter, then smiled calmly: “I know this young man. This season he was promoted from Ajax U17 to U21 echelon, and then conquered the Dutch Eredivisie. A few months later, he became the core player of the first team. His progress speed is amazing. ”

“But in my opinion, a system is needed to complete the defense. Our goal is to defend the whole team, not a certain player.”

“I don’t mean to disrespect this young man. I am just stating the facts.”

“This young man is the best player in the Eredivisie. Many of the team’s tactics are centered around him, but if you look at Serie A, you will find that many teams have a player of similar level on the wing.”

“This young man may improve greatly in the future, but at this stage, we don’t have any targeted defense against him.”

“Similarly, we will not give other players targeted defense. I am confident in the players’ abilities.”

“Of course, if he grows into a player of the same level as Messi and Ronaldo, it will be another matter. "

At Ajax's home stadium, Mancini was still restrained when answering reporters' questions.

But his vague "although but" speech was still full of fatherly flavor.

His tone was still polite, but after saying so much, it can basically be summarized as: This kid is indeed good, but he is only limited to the Eredivisie, and he is just so-so in Serie A. He is not qualified for me to arrange targeted tactics.

A few minutes later, the reporter relayed Mancini's words to De Boer at the press conference.

The Ajax coach laughed all of a sudden: "I don't agree with any word he said, but I firmly defend his right to express himself freely. The answer will be revealed in the game."

Mancini doesn't know what kind of person Sun Yu is, but De Boer knows better than anyone.

This kid's principle of life is to take revenge overnight. Mancini helped me complete the work of motivating players.

There's a good show to watch!

In the evening, Sun Yu and his family watched Mancini answer reporters' questions about Sun Yu in front of the TV.

After watching this content, Sun Jing just quit: "Who is this disgusting? How can this person be so mean! "

Seeing Sun Yu not saying a word, smiling and fiddling with the remote control in his hand, Sun Ming turned around and asked Sun's father: "Dad, I have reserved a few tickets for the front row. Let's go and watch it together tomorrow?"

Sun's father smiled and nodded: "Well done, I will transfer the box tickets to others."

Dad Sun suddenly discovered something during this period, that his youngest son is a ruthless person.

He is ruthless to himself and even more ruthless to others.

Seeing his son's inner volcano about to erupt, Dad Sun suddenly felt a long-lost feeling.Feeling like eating melon.
