Super Storm

Chapter 48: Platform gap

This is a sad story repeated over the past few decades in various professional teams around the world.

Both John Rep and Hank De Kooning are Ajax ’s youth players. The two played in the same position, but the style was completely different. Finally, John, who is faster and has a sharper breakthrough ability Rep was selected into the first team and has since skyrocketed, becoming the first-line star in the Netherlands and even European football.

As for Hank De Kooning, after he was hit hard, he left Ajax and turned around several professional teams in the Netherlands, but he still failed to show his due potential. Finally, he was unhappy and retired early. He transformed into a youth training coach. After a few years of accumulation, he became the youth training director of the Dutch team Hamler.

On the contrary, after his retired career, John Rep coached Almere, a newly formed amateur team. Although he led the team to upgrade all the way, he almost entered the Netherlands last season. In the second league, he was still shorter than Hamler.

More important is youth training. As one of Ajax ’s important youth training partners, Hamler has a close cooperative relationship and personnel exchanges with Ajax every year. In contrast to Almere, although the satellite club is hung Title, but so far no one player has even entered the Ajax youth camp.

This made Hank De Kooning, who has been suffocated in his career, feel very excited. Every time he meets John Rep, he always wants to overpower the other.

This kind of thinking naturally affected the players under his hands.

…………

…………

Yang Yang and others listened to Dick Van Poel's explanation, and they suddenly realized that they also felt that the middle-aged fat man was really stingy, and his skills were inferior to those of decades ago.

But Yang Yang couldn't help thinking of Van Gaal.

He still remembers clearly that when Van Gaal mentioned John Rep, his face was not particularly good, and he did not conceal his disdain for Ajax ’s legendary Cruyff. He felt that Cruyff was just It will just play tricks.

"He is always attacking my tactics and discipline, but he always forgets one thing. His success is precisely based on a group of geniuses, but geniuses are not replicable, and my philosophy is through rigor. Tactical discipline, cultivate a group of talented ordinary people into a talent, and create a strong overall team. "

It's hard to say which of these two legends are better or worse, and it's hard to judge whether they are right or wrong.

But Yang Yang heard that the reason why Van Gaal could not enter the first team was because there was a world-famous legendary star in the Ajax first team, and that was Cruyff.

Perhaps, Van Gaal, like Hank De Kooning, always had a knot for Cruyff, but he was proud, not as superficial as Hank De Kooning, but he must be in his bones. It is also extremely unconvincing.

The career of professional players is full of all kinds of unpredictability. Who knows if Van Gaal can stay in Ajax that year, what will the final achievement be like?

"That Vicente Weill should pay attention to it. You can stay in the Ajax youth camp for five years. The strength is definitely not to be underestimated. You must be careful when playing the group match in the afternoon." Reminded.

Yang Yang has a lot of heart in mind. This guy was also dissatisfied when he mentioned Emmanuel. Obviously the two should be competitors.

Perhaps many years later, this will be a sad new story.

If you do n’t want to be Hank Dekuning, you must try to make yourself John Rapp.

Yang Yang's heart grew firmer.

…………

The new season of the Dutch League has come out.

The first game was on August 16, Ajax challenged Vidis away.

This team's strength is not strong, last season thrilling relegation, is also one of the popular relegation teams this season, but in the end is the first round of the new season, Ajax up and down attach great importance.

The team's warm-up match was pretty good. In the most important Amsterdam Invitational, Ajax first drew Liverpool 0-0, then beat Inter Milan 3-0 to win the championship, but the team's performance was not too good. Good, especially offensively.

After Van der Mede left, Ajax's attack was affected in some ways. In several warm-up games, the forward players did not perform well. Swedish center Ibrahimović made a transfer in the summer. There were scandals in Southampton in the Premier League, which seemed to affect his condition.

Just transferred from Belgium's Genk, the top scorer Wesley Sungker also needs time to integrate into the team. This player spent six million euros in Ajax and can play in the front midfield and side. Lu is a scorer that the team is looking forward to.

After finishing the Amsterdam Invitational, the Ajax first team also concentrated on staying in Detok Most for the new season. After releasing captain Qi Wu and the main winger Van der Mede, the team clearly stated that it would not Ibrahimovic was transferred.

Without being able to persuade the big team to throw money, Ibrahimovic could only stay on the team.

In accordance with the practice of previous genius days, the first team stars and coaches will participate in the genius day activities in the afternoon, I believe that the entire Detok Most will be more overcrowded.

But in the morning, it was more about evaluating the basic qualities of the players who entered the final.

Ajax's assessment project is basically the same as Almere, but in the end it is the Dutch giants, with a wealth of money, and many equipment and equipment are simply not comparable to Almere.

For example, Detok Most has a dedicated runway for turning back and running. From whistling to monitoring, the entire process is completed by machinery and equipment. The data obtained is much more accurate than the manual assessment of the coach.

This is the first time Yang Yang has experienced such a high-level training equipment. Under the freshness, he can't help but sprint faster.

In addition to more advanced equipment, Ajax's training is obviously more detailed.

As early as the warm-up, Ajax ’s coach repeatedly reminded players of the warm-up details, from the layout of the logo tube, to the details of the player ’s activities, and even the details to the leg-lifting movements. It can be said that the details are repeated repeatedly. The purpose It is to move all the joints to prevent the player from being injured in the next training.

Passing and receiving training is conducted in a 100-square square, where five players stand at a corner, and the other three players stand at a corner, and perform various passing and running training in a clockwise or counterclockwise manner.

This also seems very simple, just like Almere ’s daily training, but in fact, no matter the rhythm of training or the speed of passing and running, it is obviously faster, and the requirements for players are also higher, all Touch the ball with one foot and run after passing.

Subsequent routine practice is to pass, pass and shoot and other aspects of training, the content is similar to Almere, but the intensity and rhythm are obviously faster, and the requirements of the side coaches are also higher.

The entire training process, including youth coaches and scouts including Patrick Radru and Fred Arroyo, was on the sidelines of each training area, and the player ’s performance was recorded at any time according to the situation on the court, so that the final Examination score.

The last training session in the morning was a four-to-four group match, the purpose of which was to train players to collectively press defensive cooperation.

This is also Ajax's philosophy. Offense is the best defense, but the premise is that the ball must be snatched down first, so when defending, the whole team presses on the whole and pushes back to grab the ball.

In a rectangular area of ​​25 meters by 35 meters, eight players play four-to-four confrontation. Not only is the rhythm very fast, but also the technical requirements of the players are very high, as well as the frequency of physical confrontation.

Even to a certain extent, the better the physical fitness of the players, the more advantageous the competition in this narrow range.

This reminds Yang Yang of what Vicente Weigel said just now. The selection of Ajax in recent years, especially the selection criteria of the second team and the first team, is gradually increasing the weight of strength confrontation and physical fitness.

It's hard to say whether this trend is good or bad, Yang Yang doesn't understand, but this is Ajax's assessment standard.

The four-to-four contest that lasts for five minutes is very intense. After training in one session, everyone is already breathless.

Yang Yang is no exception. He deeply experienced the training intensity of Ajax.

But it is said that this is far from meeting the training requirements of the first team.

He can imagine that if he honed every day in this high-intensity training and confronted a group of outstanding teammates, how much help would he improve his strength?

A young player with similar talent and strength, in the Ajax youth training camp and Almere youth training camp, whether it is progress or future development, are completely different. This is the gap between the platforms.

Realizing this level, Yang Yang became more determined that he must have a firm foothold in Ajax.

…………

"how do you feel?"

Yang Yang had just walked off the court, and Dick Van Purr asked after catching up with concern.

Although he also knows that Yang Yang will join Ajax regardless of his achievements, he still hopes that Yang Yang will strive.

At the very least, don't let Hank de Kooning look down.

"I've done my best." Yang Yang gasped and chuckled back.

There is a saying that money is the courage of men, but on the football field, strength is the courage of players.

Yang Yang has always been self-aware, and after several months of arduous basic training, although the basic skills are still not satisfactory, he asked himself that he should be able to reach the level of the middle and upper reaches of Almere. Play better.

Judging from the training this morning, he was very excited and played very well.

"Yes, just try your best." Dick Vanpoor also understands that Yang Yang's advantage is not in these basic projects.

It didn't take long for Nick to finish the last training session. When he returned, he also said that he played well, but he was not very sure about his performance.

It was the last Genk Dimer who came back, obviously with a black face and a big stomach.

When John Rep and Dick Fanpoor asked about his performance with concern, the Almere star of hope was a swearing at Vicente Weill, saying that the other was in the last four to four group confrontation He deliberately framed him and made him make several mistakes that he shouldn't have.

But he was heard by Vicente Weill, who came back from behind.

"Why don't you say that your basic skills are too bad, who blames you?" Weigel sneered sneeredly.
