Early in the morning, Yang Yang woke up on time.
He has been like this for years, and the biological clock has not been adjusted.
After washing, dressed neatly, just after going out, I heard the door open from the opposite side.
Soon after, there were movements in the left and right neighborhoods, and then I saw Harvey Alonso, Winston Bogard, and Antonio Pintus going out one after another.
"You ..." Yang Yang was very surprised when he saw them.
Is this collusion?
Harvey Alonso and others suddenly laughed when they saw his unexpected expression.
The couple were together last night and talked about the current status of Ajax and the stage results of the team ’s pre-season training. They were also planning what the team would do next, but they did not tell Yang Yang I plan to run with him early in the morning.
"We all know your habits, this is a rare opportunity." Harvey Alonso laughed.
"Isn't it? I heard that running on the lake of Odekerk has become a popular tourist project in Amsterdam. Rarely have the opportunity to accompany the main runner. Will we miss it?" Antonio Pintus also Happy to shut his mouth.
Not to mention Winston Bogard, not to mention Yang Yang running with him.
There is no way to go out, then run away.
The four departed all the way from the town and ran towards Lake Odekerk.
...
Over time, the town has changed little, but the roads and transportation facilities have been improved, and the surrounding greenery has also increased. Oderkerk Lake has become a tourist attraction. It is said that many people come here every weekend .
Especially the artificial island in the center of the lake, known as the island of lovers, is said to have become a popular resort for punching nets.
There is also a breakfast shop on the corner, which is said to be quite hot.
Yang Yang took a wandering mood to go home, familiar and strange, and at the same time curiously toured the surrounding scenery.
When he has a chance, he wants to visit Almere.
The four are either professional players, or they stay active for a long time and run fast.
For them, this amount of exercise is really just a warm-up.
In addition to enjoying the surrounding scenery along the way, naturally talked about Yang Yang's next plan.
"Ajax is currently dominated by young players. This phenomenon has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the young players are energetic and energetic, with good physical conditions and fast recovery. This can be seen from the summer physical reserve training. They are much better than the elders of Real Madrid. "
Antonio Pintos previously coached Real Madrid, and since last season, Real Madrid's aging has been very obvious, which makes many of Pintos' training programs have to be adjusted to adapt to the actual situation of Real Madrid players.
But Ajax is different. The average age of this team is less than 20 years old.
"Physical fitness must be well-checked, there is no good physical fitness. When a team like ours arrives in the European arena, it is a lamb that is arbitrarily slaughtered. There is no competitiveness at all." Yang Yang said very seriously.
Diligence can make up for it, this sentence still applies on the football field.
The overall strength is not as good as the opponent, then it can only rely on diligence, and on the football field, diligence can only be reflected by running.
Without diligent running, as strong as Barcelona, they are all subject to slaughter.
"The strength of young players is physical fitness, but the disadvantage is experience and stability." Harvey Alonso also said.
Yang Yang understands, "Experience can accumulate slowly, and stability can also be adjusted slowly. The key is to take the first step, step by step, and play every game. As long as you play like this, you are not afraid of no chance."
For this, Yang Yang has a deep experience.
For example, he has just joined Ajax's first season.
That year, Ajax had difficulty even qualifying in the UEFA Champions League group stage, and even barely got out of the line. In the end, Yang Yang performed well on the road and defeated Bruges, which barely advanced.
Also in that game, Yang Yang became famous in the first battle!
At that time, I am afraid that no one in the world would think that such a team can go far in the Champions League, because this is unrealistic, but it can be just that, Ajax is relying on one hard battle after another. Actually reached the final and won the championship.
why?
At that time, Ajax was also young. Although he had strength, he was not outstanding.
Later, Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart, Sneijder and De Jong were born. Many people thought how strong Ajax was at that time, but they did not know that it was later. European football is not very famous.
Needless to say, Yang Yang, the rookie who just debuted, Ibrahimovic wants to move to Serie A, but Laiola also let him score a few more goals, otherwise no one wants him, the most famous is Van der Vaart , A famous European genius, but only a teenager, but already the number one star in the team.
Wasn't Ajax backed his opponents one by one, one by one?
This is the case for a young team, young and flying, fearless, and daring to fight with any opponent!
This is how dark horses are made step by step.
"Don't worry about the physical reserve. In the past period, Harvey and I were personally responsible for the catch. These players have been almost collapsed by our training. In addition, the winter break of the Dutch League has a full month. This is an excellent charging opportunity, so I believe there must be no problem. "Pintus promised confidently.
Yang Yang was at ease with his words.
"Physical skills should be well grasped, and injury prevention and rehabilitation physiotherapy should also be paid attention to, as well as the physical fitness training of the players. The body of several players in the team must be properly grasped, such as Edego, and Brazil ’s Neres And Sancho, without a good body, even the best strength can't be played. "Yang Yang looked at Winston Bogard and urged.
"I'm already doing it. At present, they are still resisting, so they need you to come forward. They must listen to you, and let me be responsible for other aspects. You can rest assured."
The ability of Pintos and Winston Bogard, Yang Yang is assured, they are the most professional talents, and have been tested for a long time, this point Yang Yang relies heavily on.
"The next step is to start tactical training?" Yang Yang asked Harvey Alonso.
"Yes." The Spaniard nodded. "I just played a warm-up match the day before yesterday, and the state is too bad. We made some summaries yesterday. Next we will arrange a warm-up match and start tactical training, just waiting for you to come. "
Yang Yang nodded, he is the team's head coach, only he knows what kind of tactics he wants.
The first round of the Dutch League is on August 10th, but before that, Ajax will have to play the first round of the third round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers. It is not known who the opponent is, but it can pass the front Two rounds, the strength will not be weak.
At least at the level of the upstream strength of the Netherlands.
Therefore, there is not much time left for Ajax. Yang Yang probably has more than two weeks to slowly adjust the team's tactics.
At the very least, before the Champions League qualifiers, the team's tactical framework should be roughly polished.
"Next, where do you plan to start?" Harvey Alonso asked with concern.
Yang Yang smiled slightly, "Racing high position!"
Although Yang Yang ’s positioning for Ajax is to always score one more goal than his opponent, this does not mean that the team has to do everything to attack. This is a self-defeating approach.
On the contrary, the first thing Yang Yang should catch is the defensive level, especially the high-level pressure.
The UEFA Champions League system is very unique, the group stage is very similar to the league, but the knockout is like a cup.
The league is different from the cup. The league relies on offense. Because the fault tolerance rate is high, even if there are occasional mistakes in a few games, it does n’t matter. Evening and losing will not affect the overall situation, but the cup is different. One or two games will determine the outcome, which requires the participating teams to make up for their shortcomings in addition to their own strong points.
Whether it is defense or offense, you must have your own strengths to be able to suppress your opponents in the game, but if the short board is too short, it will often be used by your opponents.
This is true of the team coached by Guardiola and Barcelona. The domestic league is very stable, but it is easy to be blown up by opponents in the cup.
For this, Yang Yang has a deep experience, so he must first grasp the defense.
…………
…………
When Yang Yang and his entourage ran for a while around Odekerk Lake and ran back to the town, they passed the familiar breakfast shop on the corner of the street, but the results surprised everyone.
In addition to the breakfast shop owner who opened the door early, there have been a lot of residents in the town and many fans who heard the news. When they saw Yang Yang, they were all excited.
"Yang, are you really back?"
"Great, I know, you will definitely be back!"
"Yang, I can't believe my eyes. From last night to now, I suspect I'm dreaming."
"God, God, it's really you!"
"I didn't pay attention to the news yesterday, but in the morning I saw that all the newspapers were reporting. I was a little unbelievable."
"It's great that you come back. You must lead the team out of the predicament."
"Yang, I didn't think you would choose to come back at this time. I originally thought that you should be a few years later."
"My God, you ... really ..."
"Season ticket! I must go to grab the season ticket! I will watch all the Ajax games this season!"
...
A large number of town residents and fans from afar surrounded Yang Yang.
After being away for more than ten years, they were all excited.
In Amsterdam, in Ajax, Yang Yang is a legend.
Over the years, all the achievements Yang Yang has made in European football have made the Ajaxes proud. Whenever Ajax is in a quagmire, everyone will miss Yang Yang more.
They always believed that as long as Yang Yang came back, he would definitely be able to lead the team out of the predicament.
Because he has always been so incredible.
Maybe many people can't understand it, and even feel that this trust is very blind, but they just do.
As long as Yang Yang returns, Ajax will have hope!
