amazing coach

Chapter 44 Kill one to serve as a warning to others

When it was almost nine o'clock, physical coach Boden, goalkeeper coach Miles, and team doctor Seravi came to the court together. Some reporters also followed them to the training base.

Today is the day Jiang Mu takes office. Now Jiang Mu has gained a certain reputation in Dutch football. Many newspaper reporters came to interview him.

Boden, a physical fitness coach in his forties, was originally Van Dijk's assistant coach. Before Van Dijk dismissed get out of class, there were strong calls for the young and powerful Boden to replace Van Dijk. However, after Jiang Mu entered the first team, he became a physical coach.

Coach, this makes Boden very unhappy.

After Boden gathered the team, he said to the players: "Hello everyone, I have news to tell you. Coach Van Dijk has resigned. He is sorry that he cannot bring the team out of this predicament, and he has no face to say goodbye.

Everyone, I specifically asked me to bring you a message..."

At this time Jiang Mu and Lin Nazhou walked to the front of the team. Boden continued: "Our head coach is now Coach Jiang Mu. I believe you don't need my introduction. Now let us welcome Coach Jiang Mu."

Boden, goalkeeper coach Miles, and team doctor Seravi were the first to applaud.

But more than half of the more than 20 players looked at Jiang Mu coldly, and only a small half of the players applauded. Most of these players were substitute players. What they wanted most was to change the coach so that they could stand out. As for the main players,

The last thing the players want is to change to a coach they are unfamiliar with, because no one knows what the new coach's style of play is or what kind of players he likes to use. Maybe their main position will not be guaranteed.

Even if Jiang Mu didn't hear what Boden said, he knew that the physical fitness coach had opinions about him. The two were in a competitive relationship before Van Dijk left get out of class. It would be weird for him not to be jealous since he became the leader, but Jiang Mu didn't want to care too much. , if Boden can separate public and private matters, he will not make any substitutions next season. If he does not cooperate with him, he will have no choice but to kick him out of the coaching staff.

"Hello everyone, my name is Jiang Mu, and this is my assistant, coach Lin Nazhou..."

Bang bang bang!

Applause interrupted Jiang Mu's speech. Lin Nazhou is still very influential in the minds of Dutch players. They also respect this Dutch-Chinese who has made a big name in professional football. Hearing Jiang Mu

Mu introduced Lin Nazhou, and all the players applauded.

Although the players were applauding Lin Nazhou and not Jiang Mu, because Jiang Mu introduced himself and Lin Nazhou together, in the eyes of fans and reporters, it seemed that the players were welcoming them both.

"...I know some of you players don't like me, but that doesn't matter. Many people don't like their jobs, but it doesn't stop them from doing their jobs well. I think I will work happily with everyone.

Now let me talk about my coaching philosophy first, and tell you clearly that I am not an idealist. The first principle of my coaching is to win. Without winning or losing, there will be no competitive football. Others such as art, fairness, friendship, etc.

Let’s talk about things after we can win.

Of course, I will never force everyone to have the same football philosophy as mine. You can pursue artistic football, you can pursue fair football, and you can behave like a gentleman on the court, but you must complete the tasks I teach you. If

If you can't complete it, then it's very simple. Just come down and let those who can complete the task complete it..."

When Jiang Mu said this, the players' emotions fluctuated. Some were thinking, some were applauding, and some players were disdainful, but no one was indifferent, because Jiang Mu said it very sincerely, respecting his own ideas and at the same time

Also respect the players' choices.

Jiang Mu paused for a moment, gave the players some time to think, and then said: "...Now let me talk about our tasks this season. Now many people think that our league has no hope. Now we must seriously prepare for the play-offs."

To prepare, these people include the leaders of the club.

But I don’t think like this, and my players must not think like this. Anyone who thinks like this should not stay here. They can choose to go to the second team, transfer, or take a vacation. My coaching creed is

Even if you have even a fraction of the hope, you have to work 100% hard. Miracles don’t come by waiting, they are earned by hard work. Now we have to fight for that direct promotion spot..."

Jiang Mu's words caused a bigger commotion, because now the possibility of Alkmaar being directly upgraded is too small, and the ranking has fallen to third place, twelve points away from first place, and 6 points away from second place.

gap, and there are only 7 games, that is to say, as long as the first place wins three games and loses the rest, Alkmaar will not have a chance to directly advance even if it wins all the games. Only the second place has a chance.

What's more, with Alkmaar's current form, can they win all the games?

Captain Maher finally couldn't bear it anymore. He knew that if he didn't speak, no one would dare to speak. He stood up and said: "Coach Jiang Mu, can I express my objection?"

Jiang Mu nodded and said, "If you have anything you can tell me, Captain Maher."

"Coach, do you know our current position in the league?" Maher asked.

"Captain Maher, please express your views directly and don't speak to me in such a questioning tone. Time is precious and we still have to train." Jiang Mu didn't like Maher's tone of relying on his elders. Not only did he not answer, but he was very angry.

He counterattacked rudely.

Maher was so choked that he almost couldn't breathe. He gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, Coach Jiang Mu, there are still 7 games in the league. We are eleven points behind the first place and five points behind the second place.

Do you think we still have hope? I think our wisest choice is to learn your new style of play now, adjust the lineup, and prepare for the play-offs after the end of the season. You said you are a utilitarian, but I see now

How can you act like an idealist?"

Jiang Mu smiled suddenly and said: "Captain Maher, if we are now 21 points behind the first place, I have the same idea as you and prepare for the play-offs after the league. But now it is only 11 points. I already mean a lot."

It’s clear, don’t you still understand?”

Maher said: "But the possibility is too small. If there is no play-offs after the league, I agree with your point of view, but now I think coach Jiang Mu should think again."

Jiang Mu said: "I had already thought twice before I became the coach of the first team. What I want to ask now is, does Captain Maher still stick to his point of view?"

Maher gritted his teeth and said: "Coach Jiang Mu, for the benefit of the team, I also stick to my point of view."

Jiang Mu couldn't help but get angry. He asked this old guy several times in a row, just to give him a step down, but he still went against him. It seemed that he could only use him to establish his authority.

"Okay, Captain Maher, from now on, you can report to the second team. There can't be two voices in my team."

"What? You asked me to join the second team." Maher couldn't believe his ears. He had stayed at Alkmaar for thirty years. Even the club's manager and chairman admired him. This man in his twenties admired him.

On the first day of coaching, a young man asked him to go to the second team. He was almost crazy.

"Yes, you can go to the second team to reflect. If you think about it, you can come back at any time. Of course, you don't have to go if you think about it now." Jiang Mu gave Maher a chance again.

"Okay, young man, you are great, you can lead your team to the A-League." Maher took off the captain's armband, kissed it affectionately, put it on the lawn, and said sadly, "This year I will

Thirty-six years old, I have been playing for Alkmaar for 30 years. No one loves this team more than me. I never thought that one day I would be kicked out of the team. In fact, I wanted to retire three years ago.

, it was only when Mr. Dilk came to my home and told me that the team couldn’t do without me that I stayed.”

At this point, Maher's voice suddenly became stern, "Chinese, I don't need to reflect. It's you who need to reflect. You are too arrogant. Let me tell you, I will not go to the second team and I will not accept you.

Humiliation, I will apply for retirement now, and I will watch at home how you failed miserably."

After speaking, Maher angrily left the base and walked towards the office building.

Seeing Maher leaving, Lin Nazhou hesitated and wanted to stop him, but seeing the firmness on Jiang Mu's face, he weakly took back his steps.

Strength coach Boden, goalkeeper coach Miles, and team doctor Seravi all stood still. Goalkeeper coach Miles and team doctor Seravi were intimidated by Jiang Mu, but physical coach Boden hoped that Maher

Go sue Jiang Mu and wait to see Jiang Mu make a fool of himself.

Jiang Mu sighed in his heart. He didn't want to drive away this old minister of Alkmaar, but now for the sake of his own authority, he had to do it, and he had to do it even more.

"I respect Captain Maher very much, but for me, the interests of the team are above all else, because I am the head coach of this team. This is my responsibility and obligation. Who else has any objections now?

If you don’t agree, just go west and report to the second team.”

No one moved, everyone was calmed down by Jiang Mu's thunderbolt methods and iron-blooded heart. Now no one thinks that Jiang Mu is young anymore, no one dares to laugh at his qualifications, and no one dares to despise Jiang Mu as a Chinese, because he has never been a Chinese.

From the look on his face, it seemed that the Chinese was even ready to replace half of the second team with the first team.

Jiang Mu waited for a minute, and when he saw that no one was moving, he nodded and said, "Okay, now we are united as one, with the goal of winning six games. Now I designate the acting captain, he is Altidore..."

There was another commotion in the team, because Altidore was still sent to the second team by Van Dijk and has not yet been transferred back.

"...Yes, you heard it right. Starting today, Altidore, Kuyt, and Rubins will be transferred to the first team. However, this captaincy is temporary. When these six games are over, you can elect the captain again.

,Okay, my speech is over, let’s start training now.”
