amazing coach

Chapter 38 Looking for Genius (1)

(Monday is coming soon, please ***, collection, red card, this is related to the position of football in the new book list, brothers must work harder. Also a reminder, ***'s score is very high)

The warm-up match was not completed, and Alkmaar lost again in the league. They are getting further and further away from the first place in the league, and the possibility of direct promotion has become increasingly slim. Head coach Van Dijk complained after the game that Jiang Mu interfered.

He prepared for the game, but no one believed his words. Everyone knew that Alkmaar reached this point not because he did not play a warm-up match, but because many contradictions that were originally covered up by victory were exposed.

From being far ahead in the first half of the season to now having no hope of direct promotion, Alkmaar fans finally couldn't contain their anger and shouted "Van Dijk dismissed" after the game. During training, many fans also held banners.

They went to the training base to protest and threatened to refuse to enter the stadium to watch the game if Van Dijk did not get out of class.

At this time, the media is always the vanguard. The Dutch media actually questioned Van Dijk's coaching methods in the middle of the season. Now they are increasingly criticizing him, believing that if Van Dijk cannot reverse the unfavorable situation quickly,

, maybe he will be dismissed before the end of this season. Because, although Alkmaar still has the possibility of playing in the play-offs, in the current state, it will be difficult for them to defeat those hungry wolves who are recharging their energy and waiting for their lives.

.

Although Jiang Mu really hopes to get the position of head coach, he will not join in the fun at this time. With his intelligence and experience, there is no need to join in the fun at this time to ruin his character. Van Dijk is now in a vicious cycle: results are not good.

Well, prestige is lost, prestige is lost, team conflicts intensify, team conflicts intensify, results are poor, and prestige continues to be lost. Once Van Dijk consumes all the popularity he has accumulated in the past few years, he will have no choice but to be dismissed.

Jiang Mu has a private contract with Alkmaar. Once Van Dijk is dismissed from get out of class, he will become the head coach of Alkmaar's first team, so Jiang Mu is not in a hurry. Now he just needs to wait.

While Jiang Mu was waiting for the opportunity, he did not give up on doing his job well. Everything he did in the youth team will become his capital for future coaching and a key force for the future development of the team. Even if the club does not let him

If Jiang Mu goes to find good football talents, Jiang Mu will definitely do it. Not only will he do it, but he will also do it well.

The job of the youth team is to cultivate talents. Once the training of the youth team became stable, Jiang Mu began to dig out the talented stars in his memory. Although decades had passed, he had almost forgotten the little monsters of the 1990s.

, but big-name stars like Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Robben, Drogba, Van der Vaart, and Kuyt can never be forgotten. Now Jiang Mu will dig out these not-yet-famous stars one by one.

under the account.

Although the Dutch Football Association requires all professional clubs to have their own echelon, it is impossible for a small team like Ajax and Feijer to have their own echelon. Most of the small clubs like them have their own teams.

We have found some good ideas in the surrounding areas, but due to the lack of information and manpower, the number of talented young people we can find is very limited.

But Jiang Mu is different. Others find talents by casting their nets all over the place, sowing widely and reaping little, or even not harvesting at all. But he has a goal in mind, making it absolutely effortless and accurate every time.

However, Jiang Mu did not dare to use his own cheating device. He, a guest who came to the Netherlands from China less than two years ago, suddenly went to a second-division league in France to find Drogba, and went to Portugal to find a player named Ronaldo.

Boy, this is too suspicious. The only people he can poach now are in the Netherlands.

Through negotiations with AZ Alkmaar’s scouts, Jiang Mu initially identified two candidates, Robben and Kuyt, as well as Van der Vaart, Robin van Persie and Sneijder. These teenagers have become famous and are now in Ajax, Faye

From the youth training camps of wealthy clubs like Nord, it is impossible to recruit Alkmaar with his current reputation and strength. This is not a problem that money can solve.

The 13-year-old Robben is currently in Groningen in the Eredivisie. This is a small club with a weak youth training. It is possible to persuade him to join Alkmaar. Even if he cannot be hired now, he will wait until Alkmaar enters the Eredivisie.

When it comes to A, the chances are greater.

Kuyt is the focus of Jiang Mu’s search. The 17-year-old Kuyt is still playing at the Rapid Boys Club in the small town of Katvik. This is an amateur club that is three levels higher than the Oriental Dragons. However,

There is no comparison between amateur teams and professional teams. Jiang Mu believes that as long as Alkmaar is willing to ask for Kuyt, Kuyt will definitely come.

However, Jiang Mu is still prepared to go to Katwijk in person, because Kuyt, like Drogba, is a late bloomer and his skills were average when he was young. In the eyes of ordinary scouts, Drogba and Kuyt are probably both

He is a mediocre player. Jiang Mu is worried that the scouts will treat Kuyt lightly and offend this future star with great potential.

Katwijk is a fishing town on the west coast of the Netherlands. It is much smaller than Alkmaar. Alkmaar is famous for its cheese, while Katwijk is known for its flowers.

, this is a famous flower field city, and the famous "Flower Field Cycling" route in the Netherlands passes through Katwijk to the Tulip Park.

It was already afternoon when Jiang Mu and Lin Nazhou arrived in Katwijk. There were not many people playing football in this small town, which was similar to a village in China. After some inquiries, the two found Kuyt's home.

This is an ordinary Dutch family, with a clean and beautiful house, fragrant flowers inside and outside, and all kinds of electrical facilities. What is different from ordinary families is that there are many photos and game posters of Kuyt playing football.

Kuyt had not yet returned home from the club, and his father Gillette enthusiastically asked Lin Nazhou and Jiang Mu to sit in the house.

Gillette is a simple middle-aged man. His face flushed by the sea breeze, his big rough hands, and the fishy smell that comes out at any time are enough to prove that he is an out-and-out fisherman.

"What do you two gentlemen want from my son?" Gillette asked enthusiastically and somewhat doubtfully.

"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just want to talk to your son about his future. I am Lin Nazhou, and this is Jiang Mu. We are the coaches of the youth team of Alkmaar Club." Lin Nazhou replied.

It was Jiang Mu's idea to bring Lin Nazhou here. He knew that he was still too young and his influence and credibility in Dutch football were limited. The native Dutch people might not trust him, but Lin Nazhou was different.

, his appearance is basically the same as that of the Dutch, and with his glorious past in Ajax and the national team, his credibility is a hundred times stronger than Jiang Mu.

"Oh. The two gentlemen, please sit down for a while. Dirk will be back soon." Gillette let Jiang Mu and Lin Nazhou into the room, and his wife poured tea enthusiastically.

"Thank you." Jiang Mu and Lin Nazhou sat down on the sofa.

"I heard that Dirk is still playing in the Rapid Boys Club. He is already seventeen years old. Why doesn't he go to a professional club?" Lin Nazhou asked.

"Dirk also wants to go. Some time ago, scouts from the Utrecht club came to tell us that they wanted Dirk, but I don't know why there is no news yet. The season is almost over." Gillette said about his son.

Some have sad faces.

"Signing players is not the final decision of the scouts, nor can the head coach make the final decision. People from the club's technical and marketing departments also need to give their opinions, so you don't have to worry." Jiang Mu spoke for the first time, concisely explaining the club's signing.

Player process.

"Oh, that's right. It seems that I am too anxious. This kid, Dirk, is my baby. He is the pride of the whole family. He likes football so much. I hope he is happy and that he can succeed in football."

Gillette coughed twice and sighed.

"Can you tell me how Dirk got into football?" Lin Nazhou asked curiously. He was a little bit dissatisfied that Jiang Mu mobilized a large number of people to personally come to a small village like Katvik to invite Kuyt.

Answer, because in Linnazhou's view, Kuyt does not have a high football talent, at most he is just a little diligent.

Lin Nazhou was also puzzled by Jiang Mu's choice of Kuyt among the many young football prospects. In Lin Nazhou's view, Kuyt was not very prominent among the many young players, and more importantly, Kuyt was not very prominent among the many young players.

Kuyt is too old, his technical movements and consciousness have been finalized, and his plasticity is relatively poor.

Lin Nazhou believes that Jiang Mu, who has always been correct, made a mistake this time because he has never played in a professional league and lacks a clear understanding of the players' abilities. This is also a common problem among many academic coaches.

"Of course. Dirk didn't actually like football when he was young. He wanted to be a fisherman. We are a fishing village. Half of the people in the village will be fishing as adults. I went fishing when I was fourteen.

But I don’t want Dirk to have the only path of fishing. When Dirk was five years old, I told him, ‘You can choose between football and fishing!’ Dirk chose football. I think

He made the right decision because he has the talent to become a superstar."

Gillette was a little excited when he talked about his son. In his father's eyes, his son was always perfect, but Linnazhou disagreed. In his opinion, Kuyt's talent was average and he might be able to become a professional player and a star.

The possibility is extremely low.

"Well, I believe Dirk will become a superstar, but he needs to get training in the professional league as soon as possible instead of wasting his youth. Today we want to invite Dirk to play for Alkmaar Club." Jiang Mu said without losing the opportunity.

The purpose of this trip was lost.

"Going to play in Alkmaar? Alkmaar is a strong team in the Dutch second division. It is a hundred times better than the amateur club Rapid Boys. I hope he can go to a better team to develop, but this decision needs to be made by Dirk."

Gillette said tactfully.

"Mom, Dad, I'm back."

While everyone was talking, a boy's shout came from the yard.

"Dirk is back," Gillette said.
