King’s Landing in Nottingham
Vol 2 Chapter 32: Tap your own potential
Chapter 32 Tapping Your Potential
The absolute tie before the end allowed Notts County to avoid the embarrassment of falling into the relegation zone. But scoring only one point in 90 minutes of **** battle is not enough to help Notts County move towards the upgrade zone.
For Notts County, who is waiting to make up, one point is not enough to quench his thirst. After the 3 rounds of the league, Notts County had one win, one draw and one loss with only 4 points, ranking 16th in the League Two.
In the next round of the league, Notts County will go to an away game to challenge the eighth-ranked Brighton team in the English League. And two games in 4 days, the suspension of the main central defender and other problems, all urgently need to be solved by Guardiola.
After the game, Wei Xun and Guardiola communicated again in the "magpie pool". The traditional "punishment" of rubbing his back is still going on, but Barzagli was "tortured" by everyone today. Wei Xun also helped Guardiola rub his back and asked if Guardiola still needs to buy people to supplement the lineup.
Guardiola sipped the watermelon juice that Wei Xun delivered, and lay comfortably on the chair thinking about the problem.
He believes that with only one week left before the transfer deadline, it is difficult to buy his favorite player. Even if the gods are beautiful and bought a few players, they will not be well integrated into the team's tactical system without a period of running-in.
Therefore, Guardiola hopes that Wei Xun will be able to replace him to watch the U23 reserve team and the U18 youth team game when the Notts County first team goes to the away game, and look for some potential and "emergency" little guys. .
After all, as the game progresses, situations such as Barzagli's suspension and Robben Iniesta's injury will inevitably follow. No one wants this, and it is necessary to plan ahead.
Listening to Guardiola's "first scout" compliment to himself, Wei Xun also floated, good guy, if you can do this as a scout in this life, it would be considered a fame, and what kind of team boss should you be? .
Wei Xun took the lead happily. After obtaining the permission of the old coach Klauchen and Notts County Youth Training Chief Billa, Wei Xun began his swaying tour of the Notts County Youth Training Camp.
The first team has a poor record, but Notts County's U23 and U18 teams have achieved good results. They have made great strides in their respective leagues.
Wei Xun quietly hid among the crowds of the data analysis center team and the youth training center team. Old Mertesacker and Havel did not notice the arrival of Wei Xun. They just suddenly discovered the combat effectiveness of the players on the court. It seems to have been strengthened at a certain moment, and I thought it was my own words that had the effect, and I was happy in my heart.
It was not until the replacement of injured players that the elder Mertesacker and Javier realized that the team’s owner Wei Xun was already sitting in the stands, watching them silently for more than 20 minutes...
"Wei, what brought you here? Isn't it time for the first team to go to Brighton for away games?" Old Mertesacker found Wei Xun in casual clothes among the crowd.
The data analyst next to Wei Xun consciously gave up a seat to his old German predecessor, and the old Mertesacker was so naturally beside Wei Xun.
"Stefan, you have worked hard. Josep asked me to see if there are any outstanding players in the youth team. As you know, Barzagli was sent off in the last round. As usual, there should be additional stops. The penalty for the match, and Robben and Iniesta’s injuries have not fully recovered, and they will not be able to play for the time being. For me, it is obviously more important to find a little reserve for the first team than in the away game."
"Wow, Wei, it's really time for you to come. Now the players in our youth training camp are left after a few rounds of screening on the basis of the previous ones. We think these guys are at least capable of playing in the national league. The level of the game, I dare not say in the future, but this year the first team lacks a few young players to rotate. We think we can supply the 11 players on the field. You can safely choose..."
No way, although the previous Notts County youth training also produced good young players such as Pennant, they were still at a downstream level overall, so the abilities of the players in the previous training camp were uneven.
After the arrival of Billa and Klauchen, they conducted several screenings in the youth team and training camp. Many of the eliminated young players chose to perform service work at the Notts County Club, and signed formal labor only when they reached the legal age. contract.
The young players who can stay are those who have been tested and considered by Kraussen, Bila, the elder Mertesacker and chief scout Pat Devlin that they can at least gain a foothold in the national league in the future.
Wei Xun feels that this down-to-earth approach is as reliable as he is. The Notts County Youth Training needs to build up its own brand and reputation step by step. For the time being, if it is not possible to export upwards, then first focus on Yingyi, or even The national league team will do the output.
Do you want to become the youth academy with the most players in the top league? Let's start with the youth academy with the most players in the low-level league!
"Wei, how about it, are all my lads pretty good? I think you can pay more attention to these two little guys. No. 49 was just transferred from the Forest team, Newark Sherwood District. Born, Anthony Elt; the other number 41 is a child in our own turf, Eddie Taylor, a native of Nottingham...", the old Mertesacker introduced Wei Xun to the players he thought was good. .
Wei Xun followed the old Mertesacker’s fingers and easily found these two players. At the age of 17, they were very prominent among a group of 19-23 year-old players. There was still a little childishness on Hongpupu’s face. Their most unique imprint.
"Stefan, why do young players from the Forest team come to us? Are we not dead enemies? Can they let go?" Wei Xun is a little puzzled. This midfielder named Anthony Elt still looks very good. Yes, it's not the kind of player who will be removed by the Forest team...
"Your idea is correct, Wei, only the players eliminated by the Forest team will come to us to try their luck, but they are the League One team, even if the players who are eliminated, some of them will be able to play in the League Two and the whole country. In the league, who is the league team? They have the capital. Anyway, as you know, our rule is that no one will refuse, as long as we can pass the test, we will all..." Old Mertesacker had some Helplessly explained.
"But, I have to thank Mr. Klauschen and Coach Billa. They have no vision. When Anthony came to try out, he mainly measured the ability level of the forwards. After all, he was in the Forest team. The position is the forward, but during the trial training, he couldn't make an empty goal. After 10 consecutive shots, he scored a goal. There is no goalkeeper..."
"Um...Is it so bad?" Wei Xun shrugged helplessly. For those who didn't enter the empty door, how to play forwards, play defenders is almost the same....
"Then later, why did you leave him again?"
"Did you not see? How fast did the little guy chase and defend in just one round?" With the proud look of old Mertesacker, Wei Xun, who was watching, wanted to go up and squeeze his son down...
I patronized and chatted with your old man, what can I see...
Wei Xun tried very hard to recall the scene before his eyes, and Anthony gave another wonderful performance.
The Notts County youth team is launching a corner kick attack. Both central defenders have scored into the opponent's penalty area. Two full-backs are pressing on the center line. Defender Anthony Elt is standing in the rearmost position with a corner kick. After the opening, the opposing defender quickly cleared the siege, the ball was taken by the opposing wing player, and easily passed the Notts County full back, rushing all the way.
Just before the stack was about to complete the shot, Anthony Elt appeared, he stuck his body in position and blocked the opponent's shot.
"My K, this speed is too abnormal? Is this kid still a human? How can he be so fast!"
Wei Xun soon realized that he had exploded in front of the old man, "I'm sorry, Shi Tefan, I'm a little excited..."
"Haha, it doesn't matter, Wei, you know, half a month ago, I had the same vulgarity as you. I was frightened. The speed of this kid is amazing." Old Mertesacker took a photo. Patting Wei Xun on the shoulder can be regarded as forgiving Wei Xun for his swearing.
"Later, Mr. Klauchen and Coach Billa also thought that this kid was fast and had a good sense of position. You can try kicking in the back position first, and the kind of full-time dirty work and tiring work. I didn't expect it to be really useful. Since he played the main force to wipe out the back midfielder, our U23 team’s defensive quality has improved a lot, and we have not conceded the ball for two consecutive rounds. Besides, let’s not say that the basic skills of the young players from the forest team are really good in passing and receiving the ball. , Even Coach Billa said it was good..."
"From a hot chicken forward to a ball-grabbing machine, from a forest outcast to a Notts County treasure, Stefan, I think we have to publicize this matter. In addition, we can't completely give up players that other people don't want. In the next few days, we will hold a meeting on youth training to draw up some ideas and procedures for the youth training system in Notts County."
At this time, Wei Xun has some ideas in his mind, but the key part still needs to be checked by the giants of youth academies such as Klauchen and Billah, and combined with the actual situation of Notts County, to create a set suitable for Notts County. The youth training system is coming, and there is still a long time to come. There is enough time for Notts County to conquer the world.
Football is not actually a sport where you can play whatever you want.
In fact, when Wei Xun started football training in the third grade of elementary school, just because he was taller than other children, and he liked to play basketball with his father, he was arranged by the coach to practice goalkeeping. After two years of training, he became a left midfielder and a left back. Now he is playing as a central defender at the University of Nottingham.
In professional football, with the increase of age and changes in playing styles, the positions of many players have changed. Take Hao Junmin of our national football team as an example. At the beginning, he played an avant-garde in Tianjin Master Kong, but it has arrived. Schalke 04 was transformed into a left back and also played in the Champions League. After returning to the Super League to join Shandong Luneng, Hao Junmin played as a midfielder most of the time and became the core of the Taishan team's offense and defense; Beijing Guoan's Yu As a striker, Dabao has scored key goals for the Chinese team many times in the international arena. He is known as the "Fujiang". Now Yu Dabao has become a central defender in Beijing Guoan and is still able to play a key role. Goal in the game.
It’s not uncommon in China. There are even more examples of this in international football. The World of Warcraft "Drogba" who joined Shanghai Shenhua, was a defender when he first played. This also gave birth to Drogba’s later football style. The Brazilian national team and Bayern Munich’s central defender Lucio played as a forward when he debuted. He was unknown at the beginning. He only shined after playing as a defender. The captain of the Brazilian national team Cafu, his experience is very similar to Lucio.
Some things can be improved through acquired training, and some things rely more on talent.
In England and even in the leagues of the world, many young players have gone on the "wrong path". After failing to meet the expectations of the team, they have been abandoned, while the talented children in China have been overwhelmed. Among a large number of homework and extracurricular tutoring classes, even some netizens commented that "China Messi" and "China Ronaldo" either moved bricks on the construction site or brushed the questions in the classroom. Three years of college entrance examinations and five years of simulation...
Young players are forced to give up their love of football. Such things happen every day. Professional football has warmth and cruelty and inhumanity.
For competitive sports, not many people worry about this kind of thing anymore. A lot of football talents are waiting for them to dig out. Whether the eliminated players' future is ruined is not their business.
Wei Xun tried to do something to change this rule. He hoped that he could cultivate his own "Valdy" in Notts County.
In his eyes, football is a warm sport. It shouldn't be so cold. Maybe it's a bit lost. After a brief exchange between Wei Xun and the old Mertesacker, he left the youth training camp. If a child's dream is so dismissively stepped underfoot by others, it would be so uncomfortable.
