Chapter 100 If you leave, I will leave too!

Whether from an offensive or defensive perspective, Twente cannot be regarded as a symmetrical opponent to Ajax.

Perhaps, at the beginning of the season, this team could bring some troubles and threats to Ajax, but after a season, this team has been completely distanced by Ajax.

The 4:0 score allowed Ajax to win the most important championship trophy so far this season, but it is also a Dutch Cup that is dispensable in the eyes of traditional giants. Ye Qiu has won it for two consecutive years. To this cup championship.

A season, for a veteran, may mean a decline in form, and for a star in his prime, it means maintaining form, but for a group of young and talented players like Ajax, For young people, a season of training and training can greatly improve their strength.

Not only the players, but also the head coach, Ye Qiu's strength has also improved a lot in the past year, but even so, he still spends almost every day in the study room of the Godfather's training system, constantly Increase your own value and constantly improve your tactical literacy and level.

The profound sense of crisis made him have to constantly absorb all kinds of knowledge from the outside world to strengthen his own strength.

Because he, like the current Ajax team, is full of desire for the future and glory.

The tens of thousands of Ajax fans who came to Rotterdam to cheer for the team got some compensation to some extent. Although they were sad to lose the league championship, they were all relieved that they could successfully defend the Dutch Cup. At the same time, they all began to set their sights on the UEFA Cup final four days later.

Because of this, after the Dutch Cup final, although the team took home the championship trophy, Ajax did not organize any form of celebration in Amsterdam, not even the usual parade around the city after winning the championship.

Before heading to Rotterdam, Ajax had already announced on the official website and newspapers: At the request of the coaching staff, in order to buy the team more time to prepare, the team will win the Dutch Cup final even if it is , and no celebration ceremony of any kind will be held.

Ye Qiu also admitted in an interview with the media that this was his choice.

"We won the Dutch Cup last season and celebrated it. If we win it again, I don't think there is much value in celebrating. I would rather win it in the UEFA Cup final when we beat Barcelona." UEFA Cup, when we celebrate together, I believe the fans will be even more happy!”

As for his opponent in the next UEFA Cup final, Ye Qiu said that Barcelona is indeed stronger, but Ajax has more fighting spirit and motivation, so it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose.

"I remember that in the Amsterdam Cup before the season, Mr. Ferrer once said that there was a huge strength gap between Ajax and Barcelona, ​​and this final will be a game between me and my players. Tell Mr. Ferrer that the strength gap between Ajax and Barcelona is not as big as he said!"

Ye Qiu is a very proud person at heart. He will always remember whoever treats him well, but he will always remember whoever treats him badly. Therefore, Ferrell's words before the season, although From Barcelona's perspective, this was a matter of course, but from Ye Qiu's perspective, this was a naked humiliation.

But at that time, he and his Ajax had no choice. Now, the chance to prove himself has come!

…………

…………

Returning to Amsterdam from Rotterdam, Ajax continued to train and prepare for the UEFA Cup final against Barcelona.

Ye Qiu is studying Barcelona's tactics and situation this season with the coaching staff every day.

Barcelona is currently in a period of turmoil. Ye Qiu can even say that the current level of turmoil in Barcelona is not inferior to that of Real Madrid in the next few years. This also proves one thing, that is, every giant will have its own lows and No one can avoid the peak.

Ferrer's results this season can be described as appalling. On the one hand, Barcelona's set brings together Kluivert, Rivaldo, Enrique, Guardiola, Cocu, Overmars, Xavi, Reiziger, De Boer, Sergi, Petit and a large number of Europe's leading star lineup.

On the other hand, they left the Champions League in despair, were eliminated from the Copa del Rey, and even lost to Mallorca in the league rankings, ranking fourth in the league. In the end, they still relied on goal difference to be 1 goal more than Valencia. Barely entering the qualifying area for next season's European Champions League.

The disparity between strength and performance made Barcelona's Gaspart, who is known as the best vice president in Barcelona's history, but the worst president, feel dissatisfied, but he still chose to support Ferrer because Ferrer is He promoted him single-handedly, but the club's general manager Rexach obviously didn't like Ferrer and tried every means to get him out.

At this point, Ferrell's and Ye Qiu's situations are very similar.

Ferrer is 48 years old. Before coaching the Barcelona first team, his most glorious resume was to lead Real Betis from La Liga to La Liga. In the first season, relying on unbreakable defensive tactics, he won fifth place in La Liga. That season, Real Betis only conceded 25 goals in La Liga, and their defense was astonishing.

But soon, Real Betis fell to the middle of the pack. Although Ferrer later led Real Betis to the Copa del Rey final, but lost to Barcelona, ​​he himself also came to Barcelona's second team as the head coach, and in Fan When Gall was not performing well, he stepped in to coach the first team.

Many people say that Van Gaal is a paranoid coach who loves offense. However, after Ferrer came to power this season, his tactical style is even worse than that of Van Gaal. This has also led to Barcelona's failure this season. There are many goals scored, but there are also many goals conceded.

The main reason for this is Barcelona's player lineup.

Barcelona's defense this season only has a few players, Reiziger, Frank De Boer, Abelardo, Sergi, Petit and Puyol, gone.

At the beginning, Ferrer first used 3 defenders because he considered the lack of defensive lineup. However, this lineup led to Barcelona's very poor results, 7 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses, and was eliminated from the Champions League, so he immediately changed his tactics. , adopted the 4231 tactic and successfully stopped the team's decline.

Compared to the embarrassment in the defense, Barcelona's frontcourt is full of talents.

Generally speaking, the double midfielder is Guardiola and Cocu's configuration. This is Barcelona's main double midfielder this season. Guarantee the main position.

There are even more attackers, including Simao, Overmars, Zenden, Enrique, Rivaldo, and Kluivert. This is because they let go of Litmanen during the winter break. Otherwise, If so, this offensive lineup can simply be described as luxurious.

Ye Qiuzai and the coaching staff analyzed Barcelona's tactics and lineup. With Ajax's current situation, Ajax should not go all out to fight Barcelona because it is completely unnecessary.

"4231 is very popular in La Liga this season. Real Madrid and Barcelona have adopted this style of play. Cruyff said that if Ferrer used 4231 earlier, then Barcelona would be a strong contender for various championships, but I don't Think so!”

Although Cruyff was called the saint of Ajax by the fans, Ye Qiu and many people present did not feel such pressure. At least in their eyes, right is right and wrong is wrong. Cruyff also Mistakes will be made.

"4231 is a set of offensive and defensive balance tactics, which can not only highlight the offensive power of the two wings, but also ensure the protection of the defense line by the midfielder to the maximum extent. However, for Barcelona's personnel configuration, their 4231 has a fatal The weak spot is here!”

Ye Qiu pressed hard on the tactical board, and everyone could clearly see what he meant.

At first, they didn't quite understand, but after talking to Ye Qiu carefully, they all immediately understood what he meant, and had to admit that Ye Qiu had grasped Barcelona's Achilles' heel!

After reaching a consensus, the coaching staff began to discuss how to carry out targeted training arrangements. After all, there is not much time before the finals. They must practice the targeted tactics arranged by Ye Qiu as soon as possible in the past few days in order to prepare for the finals. Showed his strength in the final.

After seeing off the coaching staff, Ye Qiu was busy in his office again. He also had a lot of things to do. For example, he carefully filtered all the problems and dangers that might arise in the finals in his mind and thought about them. Think of countermeasures.

Time passed quickly, and by the time Ye Qiu left the office, the lights were already on.

After walking out of Detok Most, Ye Qiu walked slowly on the road, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart because he hadn't bought a car yet.

It's not about money, because he has already prepared the money, but mainly because he really doesn't have time.

After returning to Amsterdam from the winter break, he began to encounter all kinds of problems. One game after another, one problem after another. He simply couldn't spare the time, and he was good at everything else. Whatever he wants, he has very high requirements for houses and cars.

Therefore, even now, he still lives in the Amstelveen district. He has not yet obtained a car and can only walk.

Beep~beep~~

A dazzling headlight came from behind, the horn sounded three times, and a Mercedes-Benz sports car slowly stopped beside Ye Qiu. Ibrahimovic was greeting Ye Qiu with a smile.

"Want to take a ride?" The Swede is now very proud. He has passed the most difficult stage. At least he no longer has to worry about having no money for gas, nor does he need to worry about food.

Ajax recently decided to pay a sum of money to hire Eliza's company to serve as a player consultant for Ajax. One of the services is specifically to handle player placement and consultation. For this purpose, Eliza's company will arrange professional People come to track and take care of the players' daily lives, even including some housekeeping.

After Ye Qiu got in, the car started. I have to say, a Mercedes-Benz is a Mercedes-Benz, and it feels really good.

"Now you are the only one without a car in our first team, boss!" Ibrahimovic said with a smile.

Ye Qiu chuckled, "Why buy a car? Wouldn't it be better to ride on your ride every day from now on?"

Ibrahimovic smiled after hearing this and said nothing. He lived not far from Ye Qiu's home, also in the Amstelveen district.

"After the UEFA Cup final against Barcelona, ​​you can ask Eliza to come to the club to negotiate a contract extension for you!" Ye Qiu decided to say it in advance to cheer up the Swede, "I have already mentioned it to the club. , give some of your outstanding players salary increases next season.”

Currently, Ajax's salary structure is still relatively low in the Eredivisie, because they are all young players who have no reputation before, so it is naturally impossible to offer high salaries. However, as the players' performances become more and more outstanding, Ajax must give appropriate salary increases, otherwise the players will definitely be unhappy.

At present, Ye Qiu's confirmed salary increase list includes Ibrahimovic, Gilberto Silva, Kivu and Van der Meyde. The other players have basically signed for only one year and their salaries are already good, so it is not suitable for renewal and salary increase for the time being.

Salaries cannot be paid in full at once. On the one hand, it will increase the burden on the club, and on the other hand, it is easy to create a sense of laziness for the players.

Ibrahimovic certainly knew that this was Ye Qiu's promise to him before he fulfilled it, and he was happy in his heart, nodding and smiling.

The car drove out of the southeast new city and drove quickly towards the Amstelveen district. Ye Qiu was seriously worried about the driving skills of this Swede, and he drove very fast. Oh my god!

"Remember Barcelona?" Ye Qiu suddenly thought of something.

Ibrahimovic nodded and looked ahead, but he obviously remembered what happened at the beginning of the season, "I will definitely kill them this time!"

"I remember the bet between us. The condition is that I will take you to avenge your hatred. If I can't do it, you can leave freely!" Ye Qiu remembered the bet he made with Ibrahimovic.

The Swede obviously didn't expect Ye Qiu to remember it. He almost forgot it himself.

Unknowingly, it has been almost a year since he played under Ye Qiu. In the past year, he has made a lot of progress. Van Basten, Moniz and Mullensteen have specially trained him, which has greatly improved his strength. Now he has become famous in the Netherlands and has established a foothold in the European league.

He is not a traditional center forward, but more like a connector and fulcrum at the forefront of the team's tactics, but his personal ability also allows him to play the role of a scorer anytime and anywhere, so he has scored a lot of goals this season, and he is also the player with the most goals in the Ajax team.

The Swede knows very well in his heart that it is Ye Qiu and this set of tactics that have made him what he is today!

"Boss, if you can't win the league championship, will you leave?" Ibrahimovic suddenly asked, with a somewhat bitter tone.

He didn't think Ye Qiu was like a head coach, but like a majestic elder brother.

"I don't know!" Ye Qiu had no idea about this, and there were many things he couldn't know because he was just a head coach.

"But whether I leave or not, I'll win the UEFA Cup final!"

This is a championship with more weight than the Dutch Eredivisie. If he can win this championship, Ye Qiu can really gain a foothold in the European league without being questioned by others, because he will become the European champion!

The UEFA Cup these days is very important. If he wins it, Ye Qiu's value will increase by a hundred times, second only to the Champions League.

"If they drive you away, I won't sign the contract!" Ibrahimovic thought for a while and said fiercely.

He doesn't accept anyone else, but he accepts Ye Qiu. It's just that he keeps his words in his stomach and doesn't say them out.

Ibrahimovic performed very well in the Dutch Eredivisie and the UEFA Cup last season, especially in the second half. This also means that he does not have to worry about his future. If he wants to transfer, a large number of clubs will immediately invite him. Among them, Wenger's Arsenal has clearly expressed interest in Ibrahimovic.

"Don't be silly, do you think you are a big star?" Ye Qiu felt warm in his heart, but he scolded Ibrahimovic, "At your age now, the most important thing is to train in competitions, play more games, accumulate more experience, and improve your strength level. You are not ready to switch to the four major leagues yet!"

If someone else scolded him, Ibrahimovic would definitely fight back to the death, but when Ye Qiu said that, he was convinced, smiled, and did not refute, but he secretly made up his mind in his heart that if Ye Qiu was really fired, he would transfer, because he did not like the group of directors of Ajax.

He even knew that there were teammates who had the same idea as him, because several outstanding players this season have attracted the attention of other teams, some of which are mid-level teams in the four major leagues. If Ye Qiu really left, then for many people, there would be no need to stay in Ajax!

"Go back and tell them not to think about anything. For us, the most important thing at the moment is the League Cup. Winning this championship will make the situation completely different for me and you!"

Ibrahimovic understood what Ye Qiu meant by this, he is not stupid.

The reason why the directors of Ajax made things difficult for Ye Qiu this season and forced him to sign a military order was mainly because Ye Qiu was not famous. But after a season, Ye Qiu has now shown his strength to be worthy of Ajax. It's just that he failed to win the league championship, which is likely to give the directors an excuse.

But if Ye Qiu can win the League Cup, which is more important than the Eredivisie championship, the situation will be completely different. Whether to stay in Ajax or not will no longer be decided by the directors, but by Ye Qiu himself.

At that time, it would no longer be Ye Qiu's turn to compromise, but Ajax would have to take the initiative to make concessions and compromises, and those directors would have to bend down. Otherwise, Ye Qiu could just leave with his head held high and see how the Ajax fans would tear those directors apart.

This is true for Ye Qiu and the players as well.

In the final analysis, this is an era of utilitarianism. Without a championship, there is nothing to discuss!
