The Godfather of Football

Many players in the second team are still studying. Now that the game is over, they also have a holiday.

This group of 16, 17, 18, 19, 19, 19, 19 and 19-year-old children took advantage of this opportunity to have a dinner together to discuss how they would watch the European Cup this summer. Watch every game.

They gathered together with the players from the second team. Rick Link and Roland were being pulled by Bobby Harms and Van Dudd, chatting on the side. Huang Chu and Eliza were packing their things as hosts. .

Only Ye Qiu and Fan Praage were walking slowly along the tree-shaded road in the community.

"Next season, Van der Vaart and Sneijder should both be on the first team, right?" Van Praag asked with a smile.

Ye Qiu smiled slightly, "It is indeed difficult for the second team to satisfy their progress."

"If I want you to stay and continue to lead them, can you agree?" Fan Praag stopped, looked at Ye Qiu, and asked seriously.

"Mr. Van Praag, I respect you very much, but I really hope to have the opportunity to go outside and coach a team alone. I don't know if it will succeed, but at least I will try it." !" Ye Qiu politely declined.

After hearing this, Van Praag smiled and shook his head, "If you want to coach alone, you don't have to go outside. You can still coach alone at Ajax. Have you never thought about it?"

Ye Qiu was stunned, he couldn't turn around.

"I want you to be the head coach of the first team next season. At the same time, I want you to be in charge of Detok Most and carry out the round of reforms you mentioned before. And you are right, we should shave So, I will fully support you in forming a new Ajax!"

Van Praag's words made many different promises, each of which was a heavy and irresistible temptation for Ye Qiu. This was not only because of Van Praag, but also because of what he represented. It's Ajax.

"Are the others willing?" Ye Qiu understood that the current power of Ajax may not all be decided by Van Praag.

Fan Praag knew Ye Qiu's worries and assured him: "I still have this bit of confidence and ability. If I tell you to come on, others will not say anything else. If you step down, then they will definitely After I step down, as long as I am still the chairman of Ajax, you will definitely be able to sit down in this position. At least, I will give you three years!"

Three years, he gave Van Gaal three years, but three years later, Van Gaal brought him a brilliant revival.

"In these three years, I don't ask for results, I give you the power you want, and you let me see hope. As long as hope is still there, as long as I am still the president of Ajax, then in the next three years Years later, you must still be the head coach of Ajax!”

Seeing Ye Qiu's lips move, Van Praag stretched out his hand again to stop him.

"Don't answer too quickly, think about it carefully. You should understand that once you become the head coach of Ajax, your youth, your resume, your experience, and your every move will become everyone's The focus of attention, what will you face then? I believe that after what happened with Waters and Westhoff, you should be clear."

Ye Qiu was suddenly a little touched, because Van Praag was tantamount to handing his fate in Ajax directly into his own hands. This made Ye Qiu deeply feel the Ajax chairman's affection for him. Trust and affirmation.

"I can answer you now!" Ye Qiu also looked at Fan Praag.

The latter took a deep breath and looked at Ye Qiu, thinking about the worst plan in his mind, because he felt that not everyone had the courage to accept such a challenge, especially in such a long-term situation. The challenge of being in the limelight, being criticized and criticized for a long time.

"I will do my best to help Ajax return to the top. It may be difficult on this road, but I have enough confidence to cope with all kinds of difficulties. I will definitely succeed, I promise! "

Van Praag was a little surprised, but soon showed a smile of appreciation.

Back then, in the dressing room of that simple Olympic Stadium, Van Gaal, who had just turned 40, gave him the same assurance. But at that time, Van Gaal flushed with excitement, but now Ye Qiu seems more confident, and More calm.

Bobby Harms was right. Ye Qiu's progress was so fast that everyone couldn't accept it.

"Then let's make an agreement. Let your agent go to Arena Stadium tomorrow and I will arrange for someone to negotiate a contract with her!"

When he said this, Van Praag patted Ye Qiu's shoulder hard and said, "Ajax will be in your hands for the next three years!"

Ye Qiu watched Van Praag leave, his heart filled with disbelief, but more excited about the challenges he was about to accept in the future, because he would become the youngest player in the history of Ajax and also an Eredivisie player. He is even the youngest head coach in the mainstream European leagues.

When he thought of this, he had to admire Van Praag for being able to entrust such an important task to a 25-year-old young man.

Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel grateful for the kindness of knowing him.

Back home, the players were gone.

Before leaving, they all helped Huang Chu and Eliza tidy up the house and even cleaned it.

Bobby Harms and Van Duder also left, leaving Rick Link and Roland behind. They were sitting in the living room, watching TV with Huang Chu and Eliza. When they saw Ye Qiu walking in, the four of them immediately They all looked towards him.

"You all know?" Ye Qiu asked with a wry smile.

All four of them nodded in unison, and Huang Chu was the most nervous because she didn't want Ye Qiu to move away either.

"Chairman Van Praag just invited me to coach the first team next season. I..." When Ye Qiu said this, he deliberately stopped and shook his head.

Everyone felt disappointed immediately. They all thought Ye Qiu refused.

"...I agreed!" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

"I'll choke you. Do you agree?" Roland jumped up from the sofa and copied Ye Qiu's catchphrase.

Ye Qiu nodded, "Yes, I agreed. He also asked me to tell my agent that I will go to the Arena Stadium tomorrow for contract negotiations. Therefore, I will leave all the contract matters to you, Eliza!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you get it done!" Eliza agreed with a smile.

"I think there should be some initiative in the contract terms and not be too passive. In terms of power, I at least want to get the transfer rights to the first team. I don't want to wait until the season starts and then slowly follow Leo Benhak is talking nonsense!”

Ye Qiu learned this from Waters' experience and lessons. The latter was in a hurry to take up the post without even negotiating the terms, so he just started working on it. By the time he woke up, the season had already started, and then he would talk to Leo Ben. Huck started the war, which was very detrimental to Waters as the head coach.

"You don't need to worry about this!" Rick Link nodded on the side, "Bobby just said that Leo Benhak offered to give up his power in sports and simply serve as a technical director. At the same time, he will help the team look after Detok Most, but all specific powers will be transferred to the new head coach.”

"Oh?" Ye Qiu was a little surprised. Could it be that this guy has changed his gender?

"In the final analysis, this is also a wise move to protect one's self. Ajax's performance was so sluggish last season, Leo Benhak was criticized by the media, and the fans' impression of him was not good. If he is still good in the new season If you continue to do this, your reputation will be ruined and you will not be far away from being kicked out. "

Ye Qiu understood that as a famous coach in European football, Leo Benhak's move gave up some power, but it could restore some reputation, so it was not a bad thing for him.

"However, Ye Qiu, although you can get the power, the current situation is not good for you!" Roland also reminded, "Grenchar, Brian Laudrup, Dani Ka Valho, Hershey and others are clamoring to leave, and the first team has been panicked recently. Many players have expressed their loyalty to the team on the surface, but secretly contacted the sellers. If they cannot retain them, the team is likely to lose It will fall apart because of this!”

After Ye Qiu heard this, not only did he not get angry, but he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, if I officially take charge of Ajax, the first decision I make is to remove all those who want to leave the team. I will let them all go. There are even many players who don’t want to leave, so I will sell them away!”

Roland was shocked by Ye Qiu's words. He thought Ye Qiu was crazy. Just as he was about to persuade him, Rick Link jumped in first.

"The chairman has decided to carry out drastic reforms and promote younger people?" Listening to his tone, Rick Link was still a little excited.

Ye Qiu nodded, "If we don't promote rejuvenation and continue to let this group of people occupy the main position of Ajax, how can young people come forward? Is it possible that Van der Vaart and the others will continue to stay in the second team? How can the club start from the top? How can the club’s finances get better without the huge salary burden?”

Sometimes, player experience is always a good thing, but it can also be a bad thing.

Just like Aaron Winter, Ye Qiu was ready to find an opportunity to talk to him because his salary was very high.

This Chinese player who once played for Inter Milan is 33 years old this year and his condition is pretty good, but he is already 33 years old. If he is willing to cut his salary and stay in the team to bring new players, Ye Qiu welcomes him. , but if you want to continue to get high salary and continue to control the main position, I'm sorry, Ye Qiu will sell him.

Because in Ye Qiu's view, the 33-year-old Aaron Winter's role on the court may not be much greater than that of Sneijder and others, but the salary gap is very wide, and Sneijder and others are young and cannot play well. He is improving every year, but Aaron Winter is retreating every year.

In this way, the choice is very clear.

"Can I interject a word?" Eliza, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked crisply.

Ye Qiu smiled and nodded.

"From the perspective of buying and selling, if you announce the seller as soon as you take the stage, this will only give the buyer the opportunity to lower the price as much as possible. I think the best way to sell is to transform the buyer's market into a seller's market. In this way Only then can we maximize our profits!" Eliza pointed out the flaws in Ye Qiu's plan calmly.

"I found that many clubs make a lot of stupid mistakes when operating the transfer market. They either buy high or sell low, or even buy high and sell low at the same time. This is not a direct transfer of money. Throw it into the sea?"

Ye Qiu greatly agreed in his heart. Eliza's views were really insightful. At least this kind of trend did exist in football clubs.

"Then what do you think?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile. He never refuses to listen to other people's suggestions.

Of course, the premise is that this advice is beneficial to you.

"This kind of thing depends on operation. You patronize me and I will help you draw up a plan. And I believe that in the Netherlands, there should be many teams hoping that Ajax will become a player supermarket, which will lead to a serious weakening of the strength. The key is still that sentence, rely on operation!" Eliza immediately became very shrewd.

Ye Qiu thought for a while. He still had to talk to Van Praag and the director of the transfer department about this matter. When the time comes, it shouldn't be a big problem if Eliza also attends this meeting.

"By the way, do you have any requirements for salary?" Eliza thought of a new question.

"Salary?" Ye Qiu thought for a while and shook his head, "There are no requirements." He is mainly accumulating experience now.

Unexpectedly, Eliza shook her head after hearing this, "You are really stupid!"

"What's wrong?" Ye Qiu was surprised.

"From a management perspective, to a certain extent, salary represents a person's status and degree of attention. If you go to the first team and continue to receive the salary of the head coach of the second team, do you think others will What do you think of you? Firefighting coach, maybe he will leave after two or three days, who will listen to you then? "

When Ye Qiu heard this, it seemed that this was really the case. He remembered that in his previous life, when Mourinho coached every team, he demanded a higher salary than all the players. At that time, Ye Qiu didn't think anything of it. I kind of thought Mourinho was greedy for money, but now that Eliza said this, it does make sense.

To some extent, today's football clubs are becoming more and more corporate-like. In a company, will the salary of the general manager be lower than that of the department manager? If it is, it must prove that the department manager is more important than the general manager. So on weekdays, the general manager has to take care of that department manager. Can he do it?

In other words, the amount of money is not important, what is important is status, and what is important is deterrence.

"Don't worry, leave these things to me!" Eliza smiled with great marketing potential.

"I support Eliza on this point!" Rick Link nodded in response.

"Let's not talk about it, let's just talk about Waters. His salary is not as good as that of Leo Benhak and Westhoff. This has caused many people to understand from the beginning that Leo Benhak and Victoria Sternhoff wanted to suppress Waters, so from the beginning, the problems and conflicts between the three people were very acute. "

After a pause, Rick Link shook his head, "Of course, I'm not saying you have to fight for it, but you have to get a salary that matches your identity and status. This is not just about getting what you deserve, but at the same time. It’s also to gain recognition from others.”

Both of them said this, and Ye Qiu could only nod, "Then I'll leave it to you, Eliza!"

"Don't worry!" Eliza assured confidently.

Ye Qiu looked at Huang Chu aside, "By the way, Ah Chu, after I become the head coach, I will allocate funds to establish a sports research team, mainly in terms of physical fitness and physical fitness, and you will be responsible for it. "

When Ye Qiu led the second team to play PSV, Huang Chu had reminded Ye Qiu that PSV might have physical problems, but she was right.

Later, Ye Qiu found an opportunity and asked Huang Chu how he got the news. Huang Chu said that he had calculated it himself, and also told Ye Qiu a lot of related professional things. It turned out that she was interested in sports in college. There is also some involvement in medicine, but due to professional and other issues, in-depth research has never been possible.

The funds are not big, it can be done with tens of thousands of dollars, and it doesn't take much manpower. Just ask Huang Chu to help recruit a few people. Then say hello to Van Dude, and then allocate tens of thousands of dollars from the first team to buy some more. Equipment and instruments, that’s straight away.

"Don't think I'm showing favoritism!" Ye Qiu didn't wait for Huang Chu to refuse and reminded her directly, "This is business!"

"The player's body is the club's treasure, and it is also the most powerful weapon to defeat opponents on the court, so if we can establish such a system, it will be of great help to the club."

After hearing Ye Qiu's awe-inspiring words, Huang Chu no longer insisted on anything and could only agree. But in her heart, Ye Qiu was willing to do this because he probably still hoped to help her stand on her own. However, Ye Qiu didn't say it, and she also Don't tell me, just keep it in mind.

After saying these things, Ye Qiu turned to Rick Link and Roland, "How about it? Do you want to join the first team?"

The two of them looked at each other. They and Ye Qiu had been in the second team for nearly a year. They knew each other well, and they had won the Dutch Cup together. It could be said that they had established a deep friendship. Following Ye Qiu to the first team, this was indeed It's a very good choice.

"I really can't bear to leave Detok Most!" Ricklink shook his head and sighed. After all, this is the place where we fought.

Ye Qiu smiled, "It's simple. You will be the assistant coach of the first team and the head coach of the second team, and you will be responsible for promoting our training methods and youth training concepts in Detok Most. Make drastic reforms."

After hearing this, Rick Link felt as if his heart was on fire. This was also a dream he had had for a long time. How could he refuse?

However, once they join the first team, the coaching staff is short of manpower. This is a problem. After all, it is difficult for them to do everything with just the three of them. They will still have to find someone when the time comes.

As for who to look for, Ye Qiu already has a rough target and candidate in mind.

I will set a timer to see the effect, and by the way, I will ask for all the data for next week, clicks, favorites, and recommendations. Lao Chen will rob them all! Please, everyone!!!
