amazing coach

After winning the championship, Alkmaar's remaining three games were just fighting for an undefeated season. This was just a false name. From the club to the coach to the main players, they did not pay attention to it. Only the substitute players prepared carefully and strived to achieve something.

Performance, got himself a contract extension, and even impressed the head coach to get a chance to play next season.

Since the Dutch Cup final will be held in a month, the preparations are not tense. In the afternoon, after Jiang Mu handed over the training tasks to Linna Zhou, he went to the training ground of the youth team to see how Robben performed here.

In the past, Jiang Mu often came to watch the training of the youth team, and he also let the first team and the second team play exchange games from time to time. However, the past two months have been the time to launch a sprint for the championship, and Jiang Mu has not had time to set foot in the training ground of the youth team.

.

Today is Tuesday, and the youth team players are training on passing and receiving skills.

According to Jiang Mu's requirements for the youth team, Monday afternoon is mainly physical coordination training (basically all with the ball), Tuesday is technical and tactical training, Wednesday is strength training, Thursday continues technical and tactical training, and Friday is pre-match.

Set-piece training and targeted training, participate in the National Echelon League on Saturday (the Netherlands is small, so the Football Association has organized a very complete and formal National Club Echelon League), and rest on Sunday.

The entire training is centered around weekly games, maintaining the same rhythm as the professional team. If there is no national league for the age group under u14, they will participate in the local league in Amsterdam. The training must be centered around the game, focusing on actual combat. Every time

Training sessions are scheduled for 90 minutes, consistent with the competition time.

Jiang Mu requires that the youth team should also emphasize intensity when training. The intensity should be at least close to the intensity of professional games. Jiang Mu does not agree with the training method that takes a long time but is not intense enough. This is completely different from when Jiang Mu was in China.

Many training sessions last about 2 hours, but they are obviously not intense enough.

Jiang Mu accidentally discovered that Robben was placed in the U17 age group. He remembered that Robben was still in the U16 two months ago. Robben's actual age was 15 years old. He had already skipped a level when he went to the U16. Unexpectedly, he had already jumped two levels.

Seeing Jiang Mu coming to the training ground for young players, assistant coach Zhao Guangming hurried over, "Come here, let's see how our young players are doing? Well, you want to see Robben, he has jumped to U17 now.

"This kid is too talented and can't even play with the U16 players. There is no other way. I discussed it with Davis and transferred him to the U17."

Jiang Mu saw that Robben was as fast as lightning on the court, his passing and receiving movements were smooth and skillful, his body was extremely flexible, and he was as beautiful as dancing. Apart from being a little shorter, he couldn't tell any difference from the U17 kids.

He couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and said, "Guangming, have you given him some shoes?"

Zhao Guangming laughed and said: "According to your highest instructions, I have been making things difficult for Robben, so much so that Daivis thought there was a gap between you and me."

"I've given you the reputation of being a bad person. Robben is very talented. If he doesn't suffer a little setback, he may have mental problems. This is the biggest obstacle that determines whether a genius will become a football superstar."

Jiang Mu thought of his past life. When he watched Robben play, when it came to the World Cup and Champions League for the national team, Robben always wasted opportunities and couldn't score penalty kicks. Psychological problems caused Robben to become a first-class star.

The biggest obstacle to becoming a superstar. Just imagine if he can seize the opportunity in the World Cup finals in South Africa and the subsequent Champions League finals, he can become a superstar comparable to Rozidan.

Zhao Guangming said nonchalantly: "It's nothing to be a villain. If you tell me like this, even if you are a sinner, I won't be a man even if I blink my eyes."

At this time, the head coach of the youth team, Davis, also came over. He did not dare to show any slightness to Jiang Mu, the coach of the first team who was 15 years younger than him. He hurriedly stepped forward to say hello and said: "Coach Jiang, okay, you are

Let's take a look at Robben. He is currently in the U17s and his performance is very outstanding. Next year, or the year after at the latest, I believe he will have the opportunity to enter the professional arena."

Jiang Mu chuckled and said: "Thank you for your hard work. These little guys are treasures. You have to treat them as future Ronaldo, so that you won't make mistakes."

"Yes, children are the future of our club. As long as one capable star emerges from this group of players, the income and expenditure of our youth training camp will be balanced."

Davis did not shy away from making a fortune by selling players. The Dutch are European Jews and they do not hate making money at all. In their view, since the Netherlands has become a star processing factory, they must try to make as much money as possible.

Make stars.

"Do you think Arjen Robben has hope of becoming the next Ronaldo?" Jiang Mu pointed at Robben and smiled.

"Ronaldo is unlikely. Although Robben is very talented, he can't compare with Ronaldo, but he will definitely become a first-class star." Davis said cautiously, this is his truest opinion of Robben.

the opinion of.

"Well, top-notch stars are the minimum. Trust me, we can make a lot of money." Jiang Mu looked at the layout on another court and couldn't help but ask: "Are you going to have a competitive test today?

?”

"Yes, the elimination test in April starts today. The test will be conducted completely according to the method you set at that time. The criteria for assessing and evaluating team members are mainly the records of daily training and competition. The test results in April and December are only

It can be used as a reference." Davis said respectfully.

"Yes, it's a coincidence that our first team's training is fine. Let's see your test today." Jiang Mu sat down on the sidelines and watched the players' training carefully.

Every season, the Alkmaar club will eliminate some untalented young players and add new players to the team. This test is no less than a college entrance examination for young players. The players all feel a little nervous, and the first-team coach Jiang Mu

The arrival of the

There are a total of 10 major tests for players in April, namely:

1. Basic skills (including ball control, dribbling, passing, fake moves, shooting, headers, bottom crosses, etc.)

2.

Speed ​​test (including 10-30 meter sprint)

3．

Sensitivity and grasp of opportunities in front of goal

4.1 on 1 performance (offense, defense)

5.

Organizational coordination ability, vision, purpose and empathy

6．

Dexterity, explosive power, endurance

7．

Game psychology

8.

Creativity in the game and whether it integrates better with other players on the team

9.

Social performance and academic performance in cultural courses

10. Q&A on tactical theory.

Among these ten major items, except for Articles 9 and 10, all others are tested on the court. During the assessment, coaches and scouts will score relevant items for each player.

Seeing that during the test, Robben was ranked in U16 instead of the U17 he currently plays, Jiang Mu said: "Coach Daivis, why did Robben be ranked in U16 instead of U17?"

Davis said: "This is to assess the overall quality of the players. Robben is not yet 15 years old, and he can easily be surpassed if he skips too many levels. This is a blow to his self-confidence, and this test is also related to the player's ability.

I can’t stay in the team anymore.”

Jiang Mu pondered for a moment and said, "Let him go to U17. I want to see how he performs in the test."

Although Daivis and Zhao Guangming disagreed, they were not willing to go against Jiang Mu's wishes. They had secretly made a decision. Once the test was unfavorable to Robben, they would put Robben in the next U16 or even U15. They couldn't do it anyway.

Eliminate such a talented talent from the training camp.

However, what surprised Davis and Zhao Guangming was that Robben not only did not let people see that he was only 15 years old during training, but also played with him in one-on-one offensive and defensive training with U17 players.

Like a little monkey.

In the match, Robben's speed and skills were even more vividly demonstrated. He turned the entire left side of the court into his own corridor. The opponent's wingers and defenders were pressed into a corner of their own penalty area, and they were extremely embarrassed.

.

In the end, Robben scored three of the five goals in the 20-minute match, completing a hat trick.

After Jiang Mu watched Robben's test, he lowered his head and pondered for a long time. In fact, he was communicating with Chang'e 1 and asked him if he could adapt to the professional league of the Eredivisie.

"Chang'e 1" gave an affirmative answer. This intelligent brain with fuzzy judgment ability admired Robben and gave him an answer close to full marks.

"I want to be with you, what do you think?" Jiang Mu asked Daivis with a smile.

"Who? Of course there is no problem. The youth team is to provide talents for the first team," Davis said.

"Robben, I want Robben to train with the first team. He may come on as a substitute to play in the professional league this season. I think his ability is already very good. Our league is not very important next. I want to give Robben a

For such a talented young man, I think the opportunity to exercise and go to the professional league to experience it and broaden his horizons will be of great help to his career."

Jiang Mu said seriously, as if to prove to the youth team coach who was much older than him that he was not acting on a whim, but had already made a decision.

"Robben? Ah! This is so... that... he is only 15 years old..." Davis was a little incoherent.

"Ah! You asked Robben to join the first team? Tsk tsk, what do you think?" Zhao Guangming also asked a series of rhetorical questions.

"Don't be surprised. Robben's body, skills, and sense of responsibility are no different from those of U17. What he lacks is the mental assessment." Jiang Mu said.

"Okay, I'll call Robben." Zhao Guangming quickly ran to the court and called Robben over.

Robben didn't know what was going on. When he saw Jiang Mu, he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, "Hello, Coach Jiang."

"Hello Arjan, how do you feel about being in U17?" Jiang Mu asked Robben in a pleasant tone.

Robben was a little nervous at first, but when Jiang Mu mentioned the competition and training, he immediately became excited, "Very good, they are faster, stronger, and have rich experience. I like to compete with them."

"Then do you want to train with a higher-level team?" Jiang Mu said.

"Of course I want to go, but I have to wait a year." Robben thought Jiang Mu was talking about U19.

Jiang Mu chuckled and said, "It's fine if you want to go. Let's report to the first team tomorrow."
