Chapter 391 Cut out a soccer champion

There is a saying that a year's plan begins in spring, and a day's plan begins in the morning.

But for Ye Qiu, sometimes he may not be able to see hope in the morning.

The morning before the Manchester United match, the weather was cold and gloomy without a trace of sunshine. When Ye Qiu received the report submitted by Peter Brandt, he didn't even have hope anymore.

"Although, Peter, I think it's inappropriate to use foul language at you, but I still want to say, damn!" Ye Qiu almost threw away the report on the physical examination of all first-team players in the team yesterday afternoon. .

Peter Brandt was also aggrieved, "Please, I just checked them according to your request. If you really want to swear, you should do it to yourself. It was your overuse of them that led to the current situation!" He said. Da Lielie sat opposite Ye Qiu's desk, but he could understand Ye Qiu's mood at this moment.

So depressing!

Beckham, Alves, Messi, and Cesc Fabregas were found to be very tired and should not appear in the game against Manchester United. However, including Ribery, Vargas and Ruud Ruud, they should all be appropriately Using it is equivalent to putting a tight spell on Ye Qiu in this match against the Red Devils.

This one can't be used, that one can't be used. Ye Qiu really thinks, is he going to lose to Ferguson at home again?

He has not forgotten how high-spirited this damn old guy was when he lost to him in an away game. This damn old man even took out his collection of red wine to celebrate. Damn it, if he loses again this time, it's not because he wants to Ye Qiu was killed by him twice?

"Hey, don't look at me, really!" Peter Brandt saw the look in Ye Qiu's eyes and felt a little hairy all over, "If you want to blame it, blame it on the damn schedule. We just had a bloody battle with Everton. One game, and Manchester United will come to us in three days, which is too much for anyone!”

After hearing this, Ye Qiu also sighed, knowing that Peter Brandt had no choice.

Beating Everton really boosted Tottenham Hotspur's morale and fighting spirit, but the problem is that Tottenham Hotspur did pay a heavy price for this game. Both sides fought hard. Exhausted.

Of course, the schedule may not necessarily be an advantage for Tottenham Hotspur, because Everton will usher in a derby against Liverpool in this round.

So, sometimes things in the world are so strange that it is difficult for you to figure out what will happen next. It may even be fine at this moment, but suddenly everything changes in the next second.

"How is it? Have you decided?" Peter Brandt was still waiting for Ye Qiu's answer.

In all football clubs, news about players' physical conditions, injuries, etc. are notified to the head coach as soon as possible, and then the head coach makes a decision whether to notify the players. Therefore, sometimes many players In fact, he didn't even know the status of his injury and participated in repeated games.

Ye Qiu has always been very cautious in adhering to a rule, that is, all players who are not eligible to participate in the game are not scheduled to play. This is to avoid player injuries on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also to protect the interests of the players.

"I'll handle it!" Ye Qiu breathed out and decided to do it himself.

Peter Brandt nodded in agreement, got up and left.

Among the four players who are not up to standard, Alves has a slight leg injury and even has to stop training. The other three players are relatively tired, so it is not a big problem, if it is not too much in the game against Manchester United. If it's intensive, they can definitely play after a week's rest.

But now that the schedule is so intensive, Tottenham Hotspur can only choose to let them rest.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu cursed angrily, "What a dead old man who only takes advantage but never suffers!"

As he spoke, he called Roland and asked him to wait for the players to arrive and then come to the office before training. Not long after, Beckham, Alves and Fabregas all He came to Ye Qiu's office one after another.

When they learned about their physical condition from Ye Qiu, combined with their own situation, they also expressed their understanding of the decision not to play. However, the players all said that they could persevere after resting. After all, they all knew that with Manchester United, This game is also crucial for Tottenham Hotspur.

But Ye Qiu ultimately rejected their initiative to fight because he had to be responsible for their bodies, so he naturally encouraged them and told them that they needed to maintain good health in the long race ahead.

Messi was the last one to come in among the four, and what surprised Ye Qiu was that the Argentinian youngster seemed a little strange today.

At first glance, Ye Qiu couldn't tell what was wrong with Messi. The little guy was smiling as usual, and there was nothing unusual about him. But after Ye Qiu stared at him for a few seconds, I finally found out what was wrong with him.

"Here, Leo, did you cut your hair?" Ye Qiu looked at the Argentinian player in shock. This was ridiculed by many media as one of the signs of Maradona II, because Messi He looks a lot like Maradona with his long hair.

Or it should be said that all Argentinian players like to have long curly hair. This is called elegance, and it is also called personality.

Redondo was once dubbed the second Maradona, and he also had a signature long hair. However, after Passarella took charge of the Argentine national team, he introduced an iron-fisted ban that players who kept their hair would not join the team, and players who stayed in the team would not keep their hair. Redondo, who refused to cut his hair, eventually missed the national team.

Of course, there are also some reports that this is because Redondo's tactical characteristics do not match Passarella's, so that Redondo later refused to recruit him into the national team after cutting his hair, but no one knows about this.

It can be seen that a long flowing hair has become a symbol of Argentine players, but now Messi has cut it.

"No wonder it feels awkward no matter how you look at it!" Ye Qiu smiled and asked Messi to sit down opposite him.

"They all say that long hair looks like Maradona, but you said that I am me, not Maradona, so I thought, just cut my long hair, it's easy and comfortable!" Messi said happily.

Ye Qiu laughed after hearing this, "What if they say that you are a man like Maradona, then will you cut it off too?" After saying this, he laughed without any airs of a head coach.

Messi was completely stumped by Ye Qiu, because he really didn't expect the head coach to joke with him like this, and Ye Qiu's reaction was indeed fast, but it was just a bit of a bad taste, so Messi was also amused and laughed, but he couldn't answer.

"I tell you, Leo, I said you are you, you don't need to learn from Maradona, this doesn't mean that you don't want to learn from him deliberately, on the contrary, you should learn, Maradona has a lot of things and places worth learning from, you should learn these, absorb the strengths of the predecessors, and strengthen your own strength, this is the ability that any top professional player should have."

Many people say that professional players are so outstanding and amazing when they debut, but in fact, this is all nonsense, who is amazing when they debut?

Even Ronaldo, he debuted as an alien?

Even Pele and Maradona, they were the best when they debuted?

Nonsense! The career of all professional players is a process of continuous self-learning, continuous accumulation of experience, and continuous practical training. In the whole process, learning is very important. Learn from the game, learn from the opponent, and learn from the predecessors.

Live and learn, this saying is true for players!

Even now, Ye Qiu has kept a certain amount of time in the study room every day, watching all the theories and experiences of other head coaches, analyzing their tactical ideas and concepts, because he firmly believes that everyone has their own lack of elements, and they should learn from them.

For any top player, his development trajectory is actually his learning trajectory. When one day he achieves a certain honor and no longer learns and improves with an open mind, then his strength will end, and he can only go downhill next.

Many fans in the past life talked about Ronaldinho and Maicon, and felt that many Brazilian players were not self-disciplined. In fact, these were not the real problems. The real problem was that they had achieved certain results, reached a certain height, and were self-satisfied, so their strength stagnated!

And everyone knows that football is different from other things. When you are self-satisfied, you will find that you will be surpassed by your competitors slowly, slowly, because you are not making progress, but he is making progress.

The reason why football is fascinating is that everything it contains is relative, not absolute.

The strength of the players is also relative. It is impossible for it to stop there without rising or falling. It can only rise or fall. Therefore, when Ronaldinho and other players achieved results, they were satisfied with their own achievements. Without the mentality of humble learning in the past, they naturally did not train hard, and their strength began to decline.

When Messi heard this earnest advice and analysis from Ye Qiu, he realized his mistake.

Ye Qiu said that he was him, not Maradona, which meant to remind Messi that every person and every player is unique. No one can be a copy of someone else, and no one can completely imitate everything of another player. If he blindly wants to make himself Maradona, it will only hurt himself in the end.

But he didn't want Messi to not learn Maradona at all. He hoped that Messi could learn the strengths of Maradona and all the players, such as Davis's running and connection awareness, such as Van Nistelrooy's finishing touch and calmness, such as Fabregas's overall view, such as

Who said that Messi can't learn all this? As long as you are willing to learn and practice, there is nothing you can't learn in the world of football!

Football, in the final analysis, is just two words, learning and practicing!

Personal talent is completely secondary in front of these two words. Without these two words, no matter how good your personal talent is, it will be in vain!

After listening to this, Messi immediately realized his problem. He did not expect that Ye Qiu could understand his psychology from such a subtle action of just cutting his hair. He felt both admiration and gratitude in his heart, because he found that without Ye Qiu's warning, he might have taken a detour.

In fact, in Ye Qiu's previous life, Messi had once walked into the detour of Maradona II for a period of time. It was not until he walked out of it that he really shined and found a football path that belonged to him.

"You can't get your hair back after you cut it, but you must remember that this humble and open-minded heart cannot be cut. If you cut it, your career will be over. Do you understand?" Ye Qiu reminded him seriously.

"I understand, boss!" Messi nodded in agreement.

Ye Qiu was very satisfied with his attitude. Messi was very confident on the court and even a little arrogant when playing football, but in front of him, he was still a very humble boy, which made Ye Qiu very satisfied with him.

"You will not be on the big list in the game against Manchester United tomorrow. The team doctor is not very satisfied with your physical examination report. You will make appropriate adjustments and recovery training next. Our goal in February is the League Cup!" Ye Qiu smiled confidently and looked at Messi. Both of them hoped to prove themselves with this trophy.

Mourinho said that Ye Qiu could not win anything with this group of kids. Now Ye Qiu was going to take the League Cup from him and prove to Mourinho that he could win everything with this group of kids!

Because many main players were absent, including Ruud van Nistelrooy and other players who failed to start, Tottenham Hotspur finally tied Manchester United 1:1 at home. Van Persie scored for Tottenham Hotspur, but Cristiano Ronaldo equalized the score. After that, Manchester United took the initiative in the game and launched a round of bombardment against Tottenham Hotspur, but ultimately failed to score again.

For the fact that the team was able to draw 1:1 with Manchester United, who ranked first, at home despite the lack of players, Tottenham Hotspur fans were satisfied with the result of the game, because they firmly believed that after the team adjusted the lineup and regrouped, they would be able to make a big splash in the Premier League.

Also because Manchester United was tied by Tottenham Hotspur away, Chelsea immediately reversed the situation and successfully reached the top.

It is not known how many times Mourinho's team has reached the top this season. In short, they and Manchester United take turns to be the banker, and no one can take advantage. However, this time, Mourinho made a harsh statement that he would not give up the top spot.

Everton also showed high morale. They also had several main players who could not play, but they tied Liverpool at Anfield, and Arsenal was also tied by Middlesbrough away from home. Therefore, the ranking of the top teams in the entire Premier League has not changed at all except that the top and second place exchanged positions.

After playing Manchester United, they finally got a week of breathing time. Ye Qiu also used this week to adjust the team well, especially the players in the team who exhausted their physical strength when playing Everton. They need the coaching staff to guide them through training.

A week later, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Sheffield United 4:1 away. Van Nistelrooy scored twice again. Tottenham Hotspur almost suppressed Sheffield United throughout the game. Beckham got two assists, Fabregas made one pass and one shot, Ribery scored a goal, and Messi had one assist. Tottenham Hotspur's entire midfield performance was very eye-catching.

In the middle of the week, Tottenham Hotspur challenged the Belgian Cup champion Waregem away. This team is not strong in the Belgian League, but because they won the Belgian Cup last season, they participated in this season's UEFA Cup, and they won the second place in the group and advanced to the top 32.

When Tottenham Hotspur learned that the opponent in the draw was Waregem at the end of December, they focused on arranging scouts to spy on the intelligence of this Belgian team. The coaching staff and analysts also conducted rigorous analysis and research on this opponent.

So this time, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Wareheim 3:1 away from home with three goals from Ruud van Nistelrooy, Arshavin and Beckham, which can be regarded as a step into the top 16.

After returning to the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur welcomed the FA Cup, and this time the team's opponent was Fulham, its city rival.

At the beginning of the game, Tottenham Hotspur took the initiative and used the offensive tactics after the opening. They used Fabregas and Beckham's passing ability to constantly create killing opportunities in front of Fulham's goal. Van Persie, who replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy in the starting lineup, scored the first goal for Tottenham Hotspur in the sixth minute.

Immediately afterwards, Fulham strengthened the intensity of the pressing and the actions were constantly increasing. Veteran Montella, Diop and other players were successively given cards. In the 53rd minute of the second half, Montella tripped Mascherano because of a scissor kick tackle from behind after chasing back. The referee issued another yellow card and sent him off with a red card.

Then, Van Persie scored twice, and Carroll, who replaced Van Persie, also scored twice with two headers in less than 20 minutes, helping Tottenham Hotspur to win 4-0 away against Fulham.

Kompany, who was qualified to start this game, also completed his self-redemption. Facing Montella, he did not give the veteran a good scoring opportunity throughout the game, which also contributed to Montella's frustrated kick after chasing back in the second half.

After completing the FA Cup, Tottenham Hotspur ushered in the League Cup home game against Wareheim. Tottenham Hotspur, who was at home, easily sent Wareheim home 2-0, and Van Nistelrooy scored again.

The Dutch striker has scored a lot of goals in Tottenham this season, attracting widespread attention from fans all over the world. Many fans even think that Manchester United has made a big loss by sending Van Nistelrooy away. Many top teams are also paying attention to Van Nistelrooy, after all, he is the king of the small penalty area.

In their opinion, if a mid-level team like Tottenham Hotspur can score such a brilliant goal data, wouldn’t he be able to score more goals if he went to a top team?

After returning to the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur welcomed Bolton at home. This time, Ye Qiu’s team once again staged a hearty offensive football feast, winning 4:0 at home against Bolton and continuing to defend its fifth place in the league.

That is, after this round, the League Cup final finally arrived!
