Vol 4 Chapter 1517: team leader

What is the biggest challenge for a head coach?
There will always be only one answer, that is, how to make the players under their own hands to play according to their own ideas.
The locker room management is good, the team's transfer signings are all for this article.
If the players can not implement the tactical thinking of the head coach, then this team is unlikely to succeed.
The most typical one is the Argentina national team in the World Cup in South Africa. Maradona ’s team has no idea what kind of tactics their head coach wants to take, so that Maradona has coached the Argentina national team. After playing the World Cup in South Africa, there is no next stop.
Yang Yang has experienced several coaches in his career. Benitez has the highest tactical literacy. He even believes that Benitez is better than Ancelotti in professional level, but if he is allowed to choose one of the most A good head coach is probably Ancelotti, because he has done a great job in interacting and communicating with players.
So much so that after transforming into a head coach, Zidane was studying Ancelotti, and Yang Yang was also studying.
It is also human nature to learn from each other.
...
After chatting with Frankie De Jong and Van der Beck for more than an hour, Yang Yang took a short break, and soon ushered in Derricht.
This teenager, who will be 19 years old until August 12, has now become the main player in the Ajax back line. Whether it is a technical team such as Van Gaal or a coaching team such as Yang Yang, he does not praise him Utterly.
With a height of one meter and eighty nine and a weight of eighty-nine kilograms, this size can be said to be an ideal body defender.
Do n’t look at his tall body, but his flexibility is good, the range of activities is large, the ability to track back is strong, and the high-altitude ball defense is also very good. , All the way to accept the indoctrination and cultivation of the most formal Ajax youth training concept, can be regarded as the team's own lineage.
In the Ajax youth training period, Driecht was an organized midfielder with excellent technique and strong passing ability, but later with the rapid growth of height, his position was also getting more and more back, and finally was Fixed as a central defender.
But precisely because of this, he possesses the ability of a midfielder, foot skills, ball protection, passing, and even inserting after the ball, which is a headache for other central defenders. In his opinion But it came in handy.
After selling Davidson Sanchez from the team, it was basically determined to strongly support Delhi.
Yang Yang inspected him for a season, and introduced Militan again this summer.
The Brazilian central defender is 1.68 meters tall, with excellent physical fitness, calm mind, strong passing ability, and fast speed.
In Yang Yang's plan, Militang and Derricht will be Ajax's central defenders, because his team also needs two outstanding central defenders.
Feltman is an old player in the team and was the captain of the team before, but Yang Yang did not think he could compete with Millitang or Driecht. At best, he could only be a substitute for the team's defense.
Therefore, the position of the team's captain needs to choose another person.
Yang Yang is optimistic about the person in front of him.
...
When Yang Yang, who was sitting opposite him, said in a natural tone that he wanted to give him the captain's armband of the team, Dericht was very surprised because he was totally unprepared.
He is not yet nineteen years old.
"Youth is not a problem." Yang Yang heard Derecht's surprise and looked away from the computer monitor. He fell to the young, seemingly immature young Zhongwei teenager who couldn't help laughing.
It has been a long time since Ajax has seen such a young local defender.
Feltongen and Alderweireld, who stood out before, are both Belgians, but Derricht is a native Ajax youth training, which gives him a strong Ajax football character .
That is pass-through cooperation.
From Michels to Cruyff to Van Gaal to Ronald Coman, Ajax's football is in the same vein.
At this point, even Barcelona, ​​they learned from Ajax.
"Don't be nervous, Matais." Yang Yang smiled and appeased the little brother in front of him. "I'm not trying, or intentionally wanting to do this, but because I think you are well suited for this role."
"I don't understand, boss." Dericht looked at his childhood idol with shock in his eyes.
When he joined the Ajax youth camp, Yang Yang had just left, but then Ajax, even Amsterdam, was full of Yang Yang legends, and all fans were still talking about his deeds.
Under the eyes, Yang Yang is like a legendary in the eyes of Dericht.
He was overjoyed that he could be a teammate with a player like Yang Yang, and as a captain, that was something he couldn't dare to think about.
"I think you are more suitable than me." Dericht said with a slight trembling.
Yang Yang smiled kindly, "But I won't play every game."
Derecht was a little surprised, wouldn't he play every game?
What does it mean?
"Do n’t be surprised, I am of course Ajax player. When the team needs me, I will always be there, but in fact, since two years ago, I have been reducing my game volume appropriately, many I was always a substitute, even rotating. "
Derricht naturally knew this, but was still anxious. "Boss, the intensity of the Dutch League is different from La Liga."
"I know." Yang Yang nodded and smiled. "So, I don't have to play too many games like this, as long as I keep it. More importantly, I believe you can handle the Dutch League with ease."
Derecht was a little surprised, because in his impression, Yang Yang should be the eldest brother, taking the team through the thorns and fighting in the Champions League, but how did it end up like this?
"The reason why I decided to give you the captain's armband is because I feel that as a key player in the Ajax youth training camp, you should assume this responsibility, just like my teammate Heitinga, Or Ronald Coleman, De Boer and so on, you should be like them. "
"Me?" Dericht was flattered.
These are all legends of the Ajax club, and even Heitinga, who has the lowest career achievements, is a famous player who has helped the team win the Champions League and has played in the Premier League.
"You know, they always say that my eyes are accurate." Yang Yang smiled confidently.
Derecht nodded incessantly, he had seen it in the media.
"So, I believe you are qualified for this position, and you are also the most suitable."
Derecht's breathing became a little quick, obviously his mood changed, a little nervous, more excited.
"But ... Boss, I'm afraid I can't do well." The teenager shook his head.
"Then learn slowly, I have confidence in you." Yang Yang replied.
At this point, Dericht already knew that Yang Yang made the decision.
He was very anxious about this appointment, but more still excited and grateful.
Yang Yang saw gratitude in his eyes, just like when Van der Baker and Frankie De Jong left.
The teenagers will be grateful to those who help themselves and support themselves.
It's as if he has been thankful to Van Gaal, Van Basten, etc.
"Actually, you do n’t need to worry about anything at all, and you do n’t have to do anything deliberately. Putting on this captain ’s armband, all you need to do is lead by example. In peacetime, in training, on the court, all the time, you are the ball. The captain of the team should lead by example and set an example for other players. "
"This thing is easy to say, but difficult to do, but I believe you can do it and do it well."
Driecht's head was dazed, but he nodded mechanically.
Even when he left the head coach's office, he still couldn't believe it.
Is he going to be the captain of Ajax?
God, this is his dream from childhood to big!
…………
…………
"Do you really think he can do it?"
After Derecht left, assistant coach Xavi Alonso came in and asked with concern.
He felt that this decision was a bit risky.
"It is true that Taliafico is a good choice, and he was captain of the Argentine independent team, but I still insist that Derricht is more suitable."
"Because he is Ajax youth training?"
Yang Yang smiled, "I am not a pedigree, not because he is Ajax youth training, so let him be the captain, but because he is Ajax youth training, and played in the midfield, he than Everyone is familiar with Ajax ’s football philosophy, he will understand my tactical ideas and requirements faster than others and put them into practice. "
"In our tactics, the full-back needs to advance, but the back line also needs a suitable person to sit in, so I think he is very suitable, more suitable than Taliafico."
Harvey Alonso understands Yang Yang ’s thoughts, and he also knows that Yang Yang is not a person-only person. On the contrary, Yang Yang always tends to be practical and always so rational, so this decision must have been well thought out.
"Before playing for the Swiss team, our defense has not been good, and the midfield has also been relatively poor. Once the pressure in the midfield and frontcourt encounters the interference of the opponent, we will lose the rules and regulations, which needs our attention." Harvey Alonso frowned.
Does Yang Yang know?
"Hurry, take it slowly, we need some time." Yang Yang seemed confident.
"We don't have much time, the Champions League is about to play."
Ajax has not entered the UEFA Champions League group stage for many years. Every time he stops in the qualifiers and play-offs. If he can't enter this year, he will lose his face.
What's more, this hurdle that can't be crossed for several years in a row, the psychological pressure of players will become more and more serious, and even eventually evolved into a kind of knot, how to break the knot of players, this is also a very serious problem.
Zijah's transfer, will Ajax's offensive offense work?
Will Yang Yang be pushed up by then?
Harvey Alonso stared at Yang Yang with bad intentions.
I'm the team's head coach. Although it's just the nominal head coach, I can still push you up when I'm dead.
