Super Storm

After playing the Champions League semi-finals, Real Madrid ushered in a period of easy adjustment.

On the weekend, in the 37th round of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Seville 4-1 at home.

Yang Yang staged a double score and was elected the best player of the game, Azpilicueta and David Silva scored one goal each.

Since this is the last home of the season, the La Liga championship award ceremony will be held after the game.

Ramos and Marcelo as the team's captain and deputy captain, on behalf of Real Madrid players came to the stage to receive the La Liga championship trophy.

The entire Bernabéu Stadium is also full of joy. More than 80,000 Real Madrid fans cheered for the league championship, but the team did not organize other celebrations, because there are two more important cup championships.

The opponents of the finals of the Kings Cup are Barcelona, ​​and the opponents of the UEFA Champions League finals are Juventus. Both of these finals will make Real Madrid more concerned than the already settled La Liga champions.

There is a week of gap between the 37th and 38th rounds of La Liga, so after the restorative training has been completed on the morning of the next day, Real Madrid let the team take a day off so that everyone can have a good rest.

Holidays are definitely a luxury for Real Madrid players. Because of the multi-line combat, Real Madrid almost always started a double week in a row from the beginning of the season. Except for the holidays around Christmas, the rest of the time spent very much tension.

It was a rare holiday. After the players finished their morning training, they didn't even eat lunch, and they all disappeared.

Only Zidane and the coaching staff still remain in Valdebebas, preparing for the next two focus finals.

…………

…………

"It looks like you are in trouble."

When Zidane returned to his office, he saw Yang Yang sitting on the sofa, frowning and thinking about things. He couldn't help laughing.

The relationship between the two is unreasonable, he naturally knows what Yang Yang is upset about.

"At first, the grades were not good, and I was upset. Now that my grades are good, I am still bored."

Zidane smiled and sat down opposite him. "So, I said at the beginning, you made yourself a big trouble, and I don't understand. Why did you want to take over Ajax?"

"We Chinese people have a saying, while the world can help the world, and the poor can be alone. You come from France, and naturally you cannot understand our Chinese people's ideas, because you don't need to worry about it at all."

Zidane understood what Yang Yang meant.

France is one of the best youth training countries in the world. Even if there will be some ups and downs in the middle, France can always recover quickly.

Just like in the new century, after experiencing the golden generation headed by Zidane, Henry and others, French football has obviously slumped for many years, but in recent years, young French football players have sprung up, and many of them Lane, Mbappe, Dembele and other famous European stars have long become famous.

But China is different. The foundation of youth training is too bad and too bad. Although we have reached the World Cup finals before, everyone feels that once Yang Yang retires, can Chinese football continue to dominate Asian football?

Not to mention fighting on the stage of the World Cup.

As Yang Yang ’s buddy, Zidane also knows that Yang Yang ’s acquisition of Ajax pays more attention to Ajax ’s youth training, hoping to use Ajax ’s youth training to help China develop youth training, but this is also certain Will bring more pressure and burden to yourself.

"Some people say that people living in the world are always solving problems." Zidane comforted with a smile.

Yang Yang nodded, "The biggest trouble now is that someone is digging my corner."

"Oh?" Zidane was interested. "Who is so bold?"

"Dortmund."

"This is troublesome." Zidane also realized the seriousness of the problem.

After Dortmund's resignation at Klopp, Tuchel also did not work for too long. Now that the coach is empty, it is no surprise that he aimed at Ajax to reach the UEFA Cup final.

Doesn't Pete Boss want to switch to Dortmund at all?

One is the strong Bundesliga and the other is the declining giants of the Dutch. It is not difficult to choose any head coach.

"Frankly, I do n’t think Peter Boss is so capable. He digs and digs. The key is that Dortmund is now in the reorganization stage. If Pets Boss switches to Dortmund, he will come back and dig our players. , That would be troublesome. "

The head coach dug into the corner of the old club after he switched jobs. This is nothing new. On the contrary, it is normal.

When Benitez switched from Liverpool to Real Madrid, in addition to Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso, and Aveloa, Mascherano was dug, and Liverpool's midfield was directly dug up.

This can be said to be a very normal thing, because it is better to be familiar with life, and the head coach also needs some familiar players to help him stabilize the team as soon as possible, come up with better results and consolidate his handsome position.

"It's really troublesome, but don't worry too much. Dortmund is notoriously stingy. They don't have much money, and the stars who can sell high prices are almost sold, don't worry too much." Zidane comforted.

From Goetze to Lewandowski to Humels, Dortmund's star is exclusively for Bayern Munich. Now the team can really sell the high price is Obameyan, the problem is that there are not many buyers.

The teenager Dembele ’s name is very loud. Dortmund also shouted in the media that the asking price is over 100 million. Who can buy it?

Unless the transfer market is crazy, who will pay a transfer fee of over 100 million for Dembele?

Mbappe's performance in the Champions League is very good, Real Madrid's psychological price is only about 100 million euros, Dembele is no less than Mbappe, at least 20 to 30 million euros.

Of course, even so, in the view of Yang Yang and Zidane, it is still ridiculously high.

Dortmund can't sell the money, so naturally he can't invest, so Ajax doesn't need to worry too much.

But the problem now is that there is a lot of staring at the fat team of Ajax.

"I still remember that the book [Soccer Economics] by Simon Cooper said that transfer is an inefficient behavior, because most buyers have no way to get a corresponding return from the investment, but now the European football The altar transfer market is still so fanatical, and sometimes I wonder if it ’s crazy? "

In that book, Simon Cooper cites the example of Torres and Michu, and believes that if the transfer market is effective, Torres should be 25 times more effective than Michu, but in fact there is no.

It is precisely because of the inefficiency of the transfer market that many teams are very cautious in their strategies in the transfer market, and some do not even participate in this market at all. The most typical representative of the former is Real Madrid, Florentino recently The transfer operation in the past few years has been very careful, and it is getting more and more careful, and almost no more generous.

As for the withdrawal from the transfer market, it does not mean to completely withdraw, just to maintain a sense of reason, prefer not to buy, or blindly, the typical is Ferguson coaching Manchester United in the later period, the midfielder and the defensive line are well known, but Manchester United But he refused to buy people in these positions, especially after the failure of the introduction of Irving Hargreaves.

Ferguson's explanation for this is that players are too expensive, he feels unsuitable, and the risk is too great, so he does not buy.

Arsenal under Wenger has the same idea as Ferguson.

Whether it is Ferguson or Wenger, although they are not blindly invested in the transfer market, or even simply not invested, but they invest a lot of energy in training young players to strengthen the cultivation of young players in the team and support for their own youth training.

Of course, after Ferguson retired, in order to maintain competitiveness, Manchester United basically gave up the transfer strategy of Ferguson period and began to increase efforts to introduce strong aid. Arsenal, because of the long-term pursuit of Wenger's transfer strategy, in the European football Competitiveness is getting worse and worse this season, Bayern Munich was beaten ten to two in the round of 16 eliminations.

"In the long run, Ajax is definitely a high-quality resource. Their youth training ability is the best in the world. Especially after your capital injection, the second team won the runner-up in the Netherlands this season. The strength of the youth training can be seen. It can be maintained for a long time, with internal blood supply, self-sufficiency, and then introducing suitable players as appropriate. I believe there is no problem. This is a sustainable development path. "

Zidane really admired Yang Yang's vision and courage. He started at the low point of Ajax's downfall. Now Ajax is also a UEFA Cup final team, and the player's worth has risen a lot compared to the original.

"There are many excellent teams in youth training. Real Madrid and Barcelona do not lose to Ajax, but the problem is that their self-positioning in European football is the top giants, and the players have higher requirements and cannot give youth. There are enough training opportunities for the players, so the youth training and the first team are faulty, but Ajax is doing the best at this point. "

Yang Yang nodded incessantly. Zidane's words were Yang Yang's views and plans on Ajax.

"The trouble now is short-term, the seller is only temporary, and relying solely on the seller will eventually drag Ajax further into the quagmire, so we need to return to the Champions League as soon as possible. The original best chance was next season, but now "" Yang Yang said at the end, countless depressions made a long sigh.

Zidane can understand that Yang Yang is a very planned person. Since he took over Ajax, he has a whole set of overall planning, and the completion is very smooth, but now, the team's performance has suddenly improved, killing In the final of the Europa League, Pete Boss may switch jobs, which has disrupted his plan for Ajax.

More importantly, his agreement with the Supervisory Board.

This is an acquisition worth more than 100 million euros. With the current development situation of Ajax, if successful, Yang Yang has dug a gold mine, which will have a huge impact on his long-term plan to support Chinese youth training in the future. Will it bother you?

"This is no way, professional football is like this, but if you play, you will dig you up. The big clubs like to come with a set." Zidane laughed, including Real Madrid, including all the big players.

Yang Yang was also quite helpless. He hadn't dug himself before, but he didn't feel it. Now that he dug it, he felt pain.

In addition to digging corners, the head coach is also troublesome.

With the current situation and status of Ajax, who can replace Pete Boss?

Do you have to go there?
