Chapter 775: The future of football is here!

When the players, led by the team leader Matthew Letissiere, happily boarded the luxury yacht chartered by the team, on the Tejo River in Lisbon, enjoying the charming scenery of the Tejo River, in the hotel, Bell Sa is receiving visiting Klopp, Tuchel, and the head coach of his opponent in the final tonight, Simeone.
If this scene is captured by the media, it will definitely be shocked.
Even, someone will doubt that Simeone is here to exchange tactical arrangements for the night with Bielsa?
Klopp has officially dismissed from Dortmund a few days ago and will officially announce that he will take over Inter Milan in a few days.
As for Inter Milan and Mazzari, Mazzari took the initiative to resign and ended.
It can be said that Fasone, Blanca and others are still very effective in handling this matter, and everyone is very happy.
Bielsa didn't make a special trip to stay to greet these visitors, but because he wanted the players to be more relaxed.
Visiting Lisbon, this is yesterday noon, after the team temporarily adjusted the plan, the decision was made by Master Huan himself.
Just for this, the team has to spend a lot of money.
At the same time, in order to avoid putting pressure on the players and make them have more fun, the coaching staff including Bielsa and Luis Bolini did not participate, only the leader Matthew Letisi, who has the best relationship with the players. Abraham led the team, accompanied by sports psychologist Dan Abraham.
Believe that, at this moment, they should have fun on the yacht!
Several professional European coaches gathered together, and the topic soon came to football.
Klopp, Tuchel, and even Simeone came with an attitude of learning, and Bielsa didn’t hide his selfishness. After all, they were going to coach Young Master Huan’s team, so he even Southampton's pre-match plans are all taken out.
As a result, this appearance made the other three people dumbfounded.
how to say?
Too much!
There are more than one hundred pages of a4 paper thick. It records the physical and psychological data of each player in detail, and marks all the details that must be paid attention to. There are even many details that are incredibly detailed.
"Do you arrange so meticulously before and after each game?" Simeone was a little unbelievable.
He asks himself that he is also a very detail-oriented coach, but compared with Southampton's cumbersome and complicated pre-match arrangements, he feels that he is a pediatrician.
Just like the evaluation of the player's psychology, Southampton, in addition to specific time arrangements, also includes statistics on each player's past personality and psychology, and gives targeted pre-match encouragement programs.
And this kind of scheme is not complicated, on the contrary, most of them are very simple, and some are as simple as just a few words.
But who is Simeone?
He reversed from these targeted programs, and soon was able to vaguely guess the players' psychological conditions, and then came to a conclusion that these programs are all made by professionals and are quite targeted.
It is not difficult to understand why Southampton players take a strong spirit to the court every game.
Neymar, who switched to Barcelona from the Saints, complained more than once, believing that Barcelona did not give him enough help.
But Barcelona?
I feel aggrieved and feel that I have done enough.
But if Barcelona can see this plan, they will find that they have done too little and too little.
Of course, it is difficult to say whether they will learn Southampton.
After all, to make such a detailed plan, how many professionals and investment are needed?
Bielsa shook his head faintly after hearing Simeone's question: "Normally there are not so many, because this is the Champions League final, so it is about a quarter more than usual."
Simeone, Klopp and Tuchel glanced at each other, and they all noticed the bitter smile in each other's eyes.
In other words, even in the usual games, Southampton's preparations are quite adequate.
"Actually, you see the paper, because we usually manage it with a computer, so on the computer, these things are just a little bit!" Bielsa is actually a rare joke.
The other three couldn't help but smile, but it was true.
Saints have been up and down the club, fully implementing computerized office data management. This is what Yang Huan has vigorously promoted in the past four years after acquiring Saints.
Not only in the Saints, but also in Atletico Madrid, Monaco and Inter Milan, Yang Huan is also vigorously promoting.
Even, it is foreseeable that Yang Huan will soon promote this set in other teams he acquired.
In the past, like many media and fans, they believed that Southampton’s advancement was more reflected in hardware and data management and analysis, but now, with this heavy document in hand, they realized that they mistake.
As professional head coaches, they clearly know that there are too many shocking things in it.
For example, the simplest meal.
The last meal before the game is very important. All professional teams attach great importance to it, but most professional teams do not pay much attention to nutrition distribution. Some teams equipped with nutrition experts will be relatively professional.
They will arrange carbohydrate intake for players on the day before the game, and try to keep the carbohydrate intake ratio in a reasonable ratio with the weight of the players.
Just like Arsenal, the biggest change Wenger brought to the Gunners is a healthy diet, and they did just that.
It is said that the Gunners’ players strictly follow the diet of 4 grams of carbohydrate per kilogram.
But how about Southampton?
Not only is this one-size-fits-all ratio used, but based on the physical characteristics of each player and the data accumulated through long-term tracking in the past, a golden ratio that is the most reasonable and most in line with the player is obtained.
Not only that, they also paid great attention to time arrangements.
For example, the digestion of carbohydrates in the stomach takes about two to three hours, so they will arrange the players to eat three to four hours before the game.
The advantage of this is that it can ensure that the player's body absorbs as much energy as possible during the last meal before the game, but at the beginning of the game, it is in an empty stomach state suitable for players to play.
Is it just that?
Do not!
Southampton will also formulate a targeted plan based on each player's physical fitness, technical characteristics, location, investment and consumption of the game, and require players to strictly implement it.
But this is just before the game, during and after the game, Southampton also has a very detailed diet plan, and all this depends on the strong team of nutritionists behind the Saints.
If you talk about diet and psychology, these are the links that many teams attach importance to. Southampton pays attention to it. It is understandable. But even almost all teams don’t pay attention to sleep. The Saints have invested a lot of money. Hard work and energy.
In this plan in Klopp's hands, on the pages of the player's sleep, you can see the signature of a man named Nick Little Halles.
People who don't know might not notice who he is, but Klopp knows.
Little Halles, the chairman of the British Sleep Association, was a former golf professional, and later went to a world-renowned bedding company as an executive, with knowledge in the two fields of exercise science and sleep science.
He has coached countless British athletes, many of whom have won medals in the Olympics, and in football, the most famous is how he coached Manchester United's Giggs to sleep.
Good sleep and yoga before going to bed are seen as the reason why Giggs can live so long in his career.
And all this comes from the guidance of Little Halles.
Previously, British media reported that Southampton hired a sleep coach to help the players fall asleep, and even renovated the player's room in Staplewood for this reason.
All this is from Little Halles' handwriting.
Because he wants to create the best and most comfortable and most scientific sleeping environment for the players.
One of the most interesting is that he opposes putting water by the bed, because he believes that this will leave the players with psychological hints to get up and drink water, which will affect sleep.
But in this plan, he even arranged the players' sleep very carefully.
For example, when to eat dinner, whether to eat snacks, when to eat, and what routine activities to do before going to bed can help you fall asleep.
The strange thing is that he requires every player to go to the bathroom one hour before going to bed, every fifteen minutes, regardless of whether they have the urge to urinate, because this will ensure that they will not hold their urine.
In addition, his sleep theory is that each person’s sleep cycle is divided into three stages: light sleep, deep sleep, and rapid eye movement. Each cycle is exactly ninety minutes, so when planning sleep, it’s best to use nine. Ten minutes is the unit.
In other words, you can either sleep for five cycles, exactly seven and a half hours.
What if you don’t plan according to the cycle?
According to him, if you slept for eight or eight and a half hours, theoretically you slept half an hour and an hour longer, but in reality, you are more tired and sleepy.
And he discouraged the act of supplementing sleep, because it was not helpful at all.
In the Southampton team, Little Halles' role is to help every player sleep well every night.
Furthermore, he will guide players how to use their free time to rest, and help some players who are more difficult to fall asleep find a suitable sleep method for them.
On the surface, sleeping is a very simple thing. It is a personal experience. You can sleep well. Especially for a player who is about to face a major event, how to sleep well is a profound knowledge.
Otherwise, Ferguson will not bomb Rome hotels after losing the Champions League final.
Simeone, Klopp and Tuchel flipped through this Southampton plan, and they really had an incredible feeling.
They all know that because they are about to coach Yang Huan's team, Southampton will make this plan public to them, but even so, they can't copy it.
Because it's not realistic!
This system of Southampton, Yang Huan spent a total of four years, hard work, from scratch, slowly established bit by bit, and penetrated into all aspects of the club, penetrated into every player Go inside.
Therefore, such a plan that looks extremely complicated to outsiders, even almost like a maze, can be carried out in an orderly manner in the hands of Southampton, and they can even arrange their time very tightly and orderly.
Because they are accustomed to all this!
And ~EbookFREE.me~ is completely conceivable. For such a plan, how much money should Southampton invest in this area every year to maintain the operation of the entire system, to maintain the team's research and improvement in related areas?
At least several million or even tens of millions of pounds!
This money is enough to bring in a strong player!
But Southampton used it to do this?
Looking at the entire European football scene, there are probably only Saints who can be so extravagant!
But Bielsa obviously didn't think so.
Seeing him pointing at the document in the hands of the three with a slight smile, he said something unpredictable.
"The future of football is here!"
The three people on the opposite side were all dumbfounded!
