Chapter 99： Desperate lottery

During the Christmas season, in addition to the English Premier League, the European League is completely closed, but the heavy news of European football is still endless.

First, Zidane defeated the national teammate Henry with absolute advantage, and the club teammate Ronaldo was successfully elected as Mr. World Football. This is the third time that the French superstar became Mr. World Football.

Yang Yang watched the live broadcast of the award ceremony. The French superstar said in an interview that he will retire at the age of 33, which surprised everyone including Yang Yang.

Although he is thirty-one years old, Zidane is still in full swing today. The Real Madrid superstars he plays are hailed as the strongest team in football today. He can completely rule European football for a few more years. How can it be clear now that it will retire in two or three years?

After Zidane announced his retirement time, the media around the world were shocked. At the same time, many media began to look for the next Zidane, and elected the most promising new midfielder to replace Zidane. .

Ranked first is of course Ronaldinho, who has just joined Barcelona this summer. At the age of 23, he is a universally recognized super genius. Everyone thinks he will become the top superstar.

But his teammate in the Brazilian national team, ac Milan's supernova Kaka is also the focus of everyone's expectations, he is the most dazzling new star in European football this season, and only 21 years old.

In addition, playing for the Brazilian domestic Santos team, the new 18-year-old New Beli Diego also makes everyone look forward to, and even many people think he is better than Kaka and has more potential.

In addition to the three Brazilian stars, Dali Sandro of Argentina, Aimar, Lampard of England, Cassano and Pirlo of Italy, etc., are all young rookies that European football is looking forward to and are included in the list. List of Zidane replacements.

Also on this list is Rafael Van der Vaart who plays for Ajax.

As the youngest captain of Ajax, Van der Vaart has left the left wing position and changed to play midfielder, but everyone thinks he has the strength of Europe's first-class star, and his talent and potential are also enough to make He became a top superstar, provided he needed to move away from Ajax.

Today's Dutch League is not ten years ago, and Ajax is not the European powerhouse. Van der Vaart only left Ajax and joined the big team to get a better performance on his platform.

Yang Yang doesn't understand the others on the list, but he knows Kaka, this Brazilian player is indeed quite powerful, and Ajax's Van der Vaart is his teammate. It doesn't need to be said about his strength.

Through this list, Yang Yang also clearly felt that the status of the Dutch League in European football has been completely reduced to second-class, and Ajax has long been out of the mainstream media and fans.

…………

…………

After Zidane won Mr. World Football, the French football magazine also quickly announced the selection of Mr. European Football. The Czech star Nedved, who played for Juventus, defeated Henry, Maldini and Shevchenko. Elected as the new European footballer, Zidane only finished fifth in the list.

Yang Yang's idol Ronaldo fell to the eleventh place.

Among the top ten players in the list, Real Madrid has entered a total of four places, namely Zidane, Raul, Carlos and Beckham, plus the eleventh Ronaldo, Real Madrid can be said to occupy half of the country .

The selection of Mr. World Football and Mr. European Football quickly aroused heated discussion among the media and fans. They began to pay more attention to who had the most authoritative selection, but Yang Yang's attention quickly turned to the draw.

The draw for the quarterfinals of the Dutch Cup quarter-finals came out soon, and Ajax played against Feyenoord at home.

The time is February 4.

This will also be the first strong dialogue between Dutch giants that Yang Yang will usher in after landing.

The second half of the Dutch League will start on January 24th. After playing two rounds of the league, the Dutch Cup will be ushered in. In late February, the knockout round of the Champions League will be ushered in. The Ajax will be in February. The schedule is very dense.

After the draw of the Dutch Cup, the draw of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 knockout also came out.

Since Ajax is qualifying as the second in the group, it will be faced with one of the first teams in seven other teams besides AC Milan.

Lyon, Chelsea, Juventus, Manchester United, Arsenal, Real Madrid and Monaco ...

As a result, Ajax luckily hit the gunner Arsenal.

This has immersed the entire Dutch football in a strong pessimistic mood, because this season Arsenal showed a strong dominance in the Premier League, with 13 wins and 6 draws in 19 rounds and has maintained an unbeaten record so far , Only because of a lot of draws, one point behind the old rivals Manchester United in the league, ranking second in the standings.

In the UEFA Champions League group stage, Arsenal played very badly in the first three rounds. First, they lost to Inter Milan 3-0 at home, then they drew 0-0 at the locomotive in Moscow, and they lost to Dynamo Kiev 1-2.

But Wenger's team quickly adjusted, beating Dynamo Kyiv 1-0 at home, breaking Inter Milan 5-1 at home, and beating Moscow Locomotive 2-0 at home, both in strength and condition, are obviously very good.

After the draw results came out, the entire Dutch football team was desperate for Ajax's Champions League prospects. After all, Arsenal are the Premier League's giants. Ajax is difficult to compete with such a giant team.

And this emotion naturally affects the team.

…………

…………

Stepping into 2014, Ajax regrouped at Detok Most.

After the Christmas holidays, the players all returned to the team on time.

Yang Yang also met again with friends such as Ibrahimovic, Fairmaren and Maxwell who returned home for Christmas, but the overall atmosphere of Detok Most was somewhat depressed.

No one likes the feeling of being doomed.

Captain Van der Vaart led all teammates to undergo a detailed medical examination by the team doctor. The physical data of many players in the team exceeded the standard, which also made the head coach Ronald Coman's face not particularly good-looking.

Before the holiday, he urged everyone to slack off.

To Yang Yang's surprise, the Swedish center's physical data turned out to be very good, without exceeding the standard, which was obviously unreasonable.

"Don't you say, have you been eating and drinking with Helena all day?" Yang Yang asked curiously.

After listening to it, Ibrahimovic was very proud and raised his eyebrows, "Hey, I was born with this kind of body, and you don't envy you."

"Are you going to die without bragging?" Yang Yang shook his head bitterly.

But don't say, listening to Ibrahimovic bragging, I feel particularly warm.

"I guess he should have been with Helena for a long time, imaginary." Maxwell laughed.

Yang Yang and others are all men. Of course they can understand the meaning of this sentence, and they immediately laughed.

The Swedish center stretched out his hand to catch the Brazilian, "Maxwell, if you want to die, you can tell me earlier, I will do it for you."

Yang Yang was funny again, but he still felt very familiar with the hearty laughs of his teammates.

During the Christmas period, Yang Yang insisted on training every day, so his physical examination passed smoothly, but the coaching staff still gave Yang Yang an exercise plan, mainly for physical reserve and physical strength, these All of Yang Yang's current weaknesses need to be strengthened.

Although this represents Yang Yang's entire winter break, the training will be particularly difficult, but in turn, it means that the coaching team headed by Ronald Coman began to place higher expectations and requirements on him. I believe he will still be in the second half of the season Still an important member of the team.

After the medical examination, Ronald Coman severely reprimanded several players on the team who seriously exceeded the medical standard, thinking that this was the result of their indulgence during the Christmas holiday, and also asked all the players who exceeded the standard. Adjust your body, otherwise, no one wants to play.

Ronald Coleman has always been strict in governing the army, and everyone in the team is very awesome to him, naturally dare not carelessly.

On the first day of training, the team focused more on adjustment and recovery, with the goal of gradually letting everyone enter the state of training preparation.

Since Ajax played well in the first half, the results of the Champions League, the Dutch League and the Dutch Cup are basically satisfactory, and the management also hopes to maintain the stability of the first team lineup. aid.

In addition, Van Gaal has reached a consensus with Trabelsi, Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart and other core stars in the team. They also promised to concentrate on playing for Ajax before the end of the season. , So basically no players will be sold during the winter break.

This stability is also reflected in the mood and mentality of the team's first day players.

It is worth mentioning that this time the team went to Portugal for the winter training list, players from the second team, such as Babel, De Moore, Maduro and Lindgren, were also selected, and they will all train together with the team , Accept the inspection of the first team coaching staff.

These players were obviously a little embarrassed when they met with Yang Yang. They were all teammates on the same starting line half a month ago. Babel even led Yang Yang. But who would have thought that after half a month, Yang Yang has entered the front The team did not stand firm, but also made a name for Dutch football.

This makes Babel, who has always looked at Yang Yang's discomfort, very depressed.

The day before the Ajax training, the Dutch media broke the news that Collins John, who played for Twente, officially transferred to the Fulham team, worth 600,000 euros.

The 18-year-old African-American Dutch striker made his name at the beginning of the season, breaking the youngest goal record in the Dutch League, and was not refreshed by Yang Yang until the end of the year, while he was in the first half. Nine goals were scored in the eighteen rounds of the league, which performed very well and attracted Fulham's attention.

Because he still had the contract with Twente in the original youth training camp, Fulham was able to buy the famous star of the Dutch League at a relatively low price.

After Collins John, many media have also turned their attention to Yang Yang.

The former Collins John has transferred, what about Yang Yang who emerged in the last half of the first half?
