Chapter 142 Injury Trouble

Due to the continuous fierce battles, the intelligent bioelectric energy "Chang'e 1" reminded Jiang Mu that the players' physical energy was extremely exhausted, and injuries were easy to occur in this case.

In the twelfth round of the Eredivisie on November 8, Alkmaar's opponent was Roda JC, the Dutch Cup loser, so Jiang Mu boldly made a rotation. The previous main players Altidore, Martens, and De

Roba, Morris and others were all replaced, and this game was played with a lineup dominated by substitutes who rarely appeared in the league.[]

After Alkmaar won 11 consecutive victories and massacred the three giants with a big score, other teams lost their courage before facing Alkmaar. Although Alkmaar played as a substitute, Roda played at home.

jc still played intensive defense.

Encouraged by their winning streak, AZ Alkmaar was confident even when they were on the bench. These young people surrounded Roda JC and bombarded them wildly. They scored three goals in a row despite Roda JC sneaking a goal. In the end,

Winning 3:1 away from home, winning 12 consecutive league games.

Jiang Mu's bold replacement of the substitute lineup aroused the media's amazement, because not everyone dares to put down the burden of winning streak and use newcomers. Firstly, the main players will complain, and secondly, the winning streak may end. Jiang Mu's in this

Sometimes he behaves more like an experienced old coach rather than a young and energetic boy.

However, Feyenoord, who were bloodbathed by Alkmaar in the last round, did not recover. In the next game, they defeated Breda 1-0 away from home and continued to pursue Alkmaar. In the short term, Alkmaar wanted to get rid of them.

Getting out of Feyenoord is not easy yet.

After the match against Roda JC, the team entered another double match in a week. This time Alkmaar met its old rival, Kamble, who was also promoted from the Dutch second division. Compared with Alkmaar, the favorite to win the championship, Alkmaar had unlimited success.

, but now Cambour is in a very awkward situation. They are still struggling in the relegation zone. Facing Alkmaar this time, Cambour's head coach Van Blount said with a wry smile: If we can have half of Alkmaar's strength,

If I score points, I will be sure to avoid relegation.

Last year, Jiang Mu was fighting to the death with Kamble to advance directly. Now Jiang Mu is much more relaxed. He joked: I also want to help Kamble. We are old friends who went through difficulties together in the Dutch second division, but I don’t think they need help.

They can avoid relegation. Van Blount is an experienced coach. His strength, correct tactics and hard work will allow them to avoid relegation.

Jiang Mu joked that Kamble didn't need help, but it seemed that Alkmaar really wanted to help Kamble at the beginning. They gave a big gift at the beginning and conceded the ball in 50 seconds, creating the fastest goal conceded in the Eredivisie this season.

Record, after Tomasson equalized, Alkmaar still did not play well. The players' individual performance was more important than collective cooperation, and they conceded another goal at the last moment of the first half.

In the second half, Jiang Mu changed three players in one breath and bombarded the players in the locker room. At this time, Alkmaar cheered up and firmly controlled the game in the second half. In the end, they defeated Cambre 4:2 and won the championship.

The league's 13th consecutive victory.

After the thirteenth round of the league, the draw for the top 16 of the Dutch Cup was also out. Alkmaar was lucky and picked Fortunasi, who was of average strength. The game was played on Christmas Eve, so Alkmaar had a good time on Christmas.

Four games will be played in more than two weeks before the holiday, which is an important test for Alkmaar.

In order to play well in the first half of the game, Jiang Mu continued to use his rotation tactics to deal with some games where the opponents were not too strong. Although there were many twists and turns in the process, Jiang Mu's ability to command on the spot was very strong and he was often able to deal with dangerous situations.

After entering December, they have won 16 consecutive league games, leaving Feyenoord by 6 points, becoming the only team in Europe that has won all the games from the beginning. If

Including the Dutch Cup, they have won 18 consecutive games.

Alkmaar has great glory on the field. Many media surveys show that Alkmaar is now the most popular team in the Netherlands and the favorite to win the league. The Mavericks bought by Jiang Mu in the summer transfer are also gradually

Mature, either recruited by the national team or absorbed by the Olympic team, almost everyone's value increased tenfold or even a hundredfold. Head coach Jiang Mu also gained fame and fortune. He was elected as the best coach of the Eredivisie for four consecutive months.

He is sought after by major media, and many businesses are looking for Jiang Mu to do advertising endorsements, becoming a veritable idol-level coach.

However, Jiang Mu off the court is not as happy as he appears from the outside. In fact, after entering December, Jiang Mu is as exhausted as other coaches because the team has injury problems. If it is the midfielder or frontcourt, Jiang Mu is also exhausted.

There is nothing to worry about. High center forwards like Tony are sitting on the bench, but the injuries on the defensive line make Jiang Mu really unable to afford the injury.

Chang'e 1 can best monitor the physical condition of players and prevent players from getting injured due to fatigue, but it cannot prevent the opponent from committing malicious fouls. In the 14th round of the league against Maastricht, center back Morris was injured. It doesn't matter.

It’s not a big problem for Martens to lead the young Hoffs. Anyway, there are two barriers in front of Gattuso and Van Bommel. Not many balls can reach Hoffs, but when they played Twente in the 16th round, Martens

Tens was also injured, and it was a ligament injury. He was lucky to be able to recover in two months, and it was not impossible to be reimbursed for the season. Now Jiang Muke was scratching his head. The 22-year-old Hoff cannot be allowed to play the most important central defender position.

Si takes the 20-year-old Propel to fight.

"We must buy at least one central defender during the winter break."

Jiang Mu sat in Sihelinjia's office and frowned.

"Don't worry, Feyenoord is still two goals away from us. Do you have a goal?"

Sihelinjia gently poured a cup of tea for Jiang Mu. Jiang Mu was still not used to drinking coffee. Sihelinjia's office prepared tea and mineral water for him.

"There are three candidates, one is Lucio from Internacional of Brazil, the other is Ismail from Lens in French Ligue 1, and Van Buyten from Charleroi in Belgium. It is best to buy two, and at least one must be acquired.

.This is their information.”

Jiang Mu handed the information he had prepared for a week to Schlinjia. These three people were carefully selected by him. If it were not for a serious shortage of defenders, he hoped to purchase these three people in the summer transfer next year. After all, he was

For a small club like Alkmaar, a lot of money has been spent on summer transfers, and the defense formed by Martens and Morris is enough to cope with the Eredivisie. They will need stronger players to compete in the Champions League next season.

Defender combination.

Schlinjia browsed through the information. She had never heard of any of the three players, and two of the central defenders were only 20 years old. Only Ismail was older, born in 1975. She said doubtfully:

"Jiang, why don't you buy young people for the back line? The back line is different from the forward line. This requires experience, and even one mistake is necessary."

Jiang Mu spread his hands and said: "I also want to use someone who is older and experienced, but do you have money? Any good central defender is worth millions, and the famous ones cost more than tens of millions of dollars, and at this time, they definitely don't

Who will sell the central defender in the middle of the league?"

Sihelinjia thought about what Jiang Mu said. She smiled bitterly and said, "Then I'll give it a try. I hope the price won't be too high. We've already started planning for our new stadium, which is estimated to cost hundreds of millions."

Jiang Mu said: "Of course the stadium is important, but now it is urgent. Look at the present first. If the results are not good, what is the use of a big stadium? Who will come to watch the football. However, if you want to save money, let's see if you can rent it with those clubs.

Let’s discuss it and rent before buying.”

Schlinja said: "Let's see what the other club means. They are not relegation and championship teams, right?"

Jiang Mu said: "It doesn't matter if you are relegated and win the championship. What's important are two points. One is that they don't lack central defenders, and the other is that they can pay for their heart's desire. The following league and cup matches are too tense. I don't have time to investigate carefully. You can go there in person."

To handle this matter, let me tell you this, Shilinjia, I am very optimistic about those two 20-year-old young defenders. Their future prospects are limitless and they are my future goals. If you give the greatest sincerity, of course.

For emergencies, Ismail, who has played in many clubs, is more available."

Sihelinjia said: "You don't believe me so much. Don't worry, I will do my best to tell you what you tell me."

"Okay, hurry up and get in touch. The winter transfer will start soon. I still have a headache about who will play as a defender." Jiang Mu rubbed his temples and stood up, preparing to leave.

Silinja grabbed his arm, pressed him on the sofa, and said: "Okay, don't have a headache. It doesn't matter if you lose one or two games. Don't be reluctant to give up the nickname of your magical coach. The pressure is too great."

Body, come here, let me massage your head."

"Okay, let me see how your technique goes."

Jiang Mu was half lying on the sofa, relaxing and enjoying Shelinjia's massage. After a while, he fell asleep in a daze.

The opponent in the 17th round of the league was 7th-ranked Utrecht. After a crazy start, this small team has now returned to reality. The results have been good and bad. Sometimes they can beat Waalwijk at the same level, and they can also beat the same level.

Being able to lose by a big margin to Roda JC, who had less points than him, means that he has a nerve knife.

Jiang Mu has never been afraid of the nerve knife, because he is more nervous, but not now. His back line has lost two generals, which makes the general feel unsure. In training, Jiang Mu puts offense and pressing at the most important position.

, hoping to compress the opponent's attack time to the maximum extent and avoid one's own shortcomings from being attacked by the opponent.

However, Utrecht is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Being able to draw with Ajax proves their strength. In this game, Utrecht passed the ball long and avoided Alkmaar's pressing in the midfield.

The two young central defenders of Alkmaar, Hoffs and Propel, were paired together.

The goals of both sides increased intertwined, once reaching 3:3. In the end, Alkmaar's attack power was more powerful. In the last ten minutes, Utrecht was exhausted and scored two goals in a row, defeating Uzbekistan 5:3.

Derecht won the first game of the hard-fought Christmas game with great difficulty. Next, they will go to play against Fortunasi in the Dutch Cup quarter-finals. Although Fortunasi is average, they have no way to avoid relegation.

Worry, at this time, they will definitely take advantage of their home court to fight Alkmaar to the death and try to have a good time in the cup.
