Chapter 47
After watching the Dutch derby between Ajax and PSV Eindhoven, Sun Yu had serious doubts about the strength of Ajax's first team.
Ajax played well in the first half and scored the first goal.
But after the start of the second half, the game suddenly showed a one-sided trend.
Wijnaldum took up the banner of midfield organization alone. He was almost at full power in the second half, and he took care of the offense and defense of the midfield alone.
After PSV Eindhoven took control of the midfield, Depay had more and more opportunities to get the ball, and their waves of attacks made Ajax embarrassed.
After the game, De Boer looked very embarrassed at the press conference, dealing with various sharp questions from beginning to end.
Although Dutch reporters are not as bad as English reporters, they are mainly direct in saying anything, which made De Boer experience a black ten minutes.
As the head coach of Ajax, losing a game is a big deal, not to mention losing to PSV Eindhoven.
There are not many popular matches in the Eredivisie, and there are not many teams that can put pressure on strong teams. If you lose a key battle to win the championship, you will have great pressure in the following schedule.
Facing the media's questioning, De Boer's ability to sophistry is not bad.
In front of dozens of reporters, the Ajax coach did not look panicked at all: "Judging from the results of last season, Alkmaar is our main opponent. We defeated them a week ago."
"We defeated the runner-up of last season, but lost to the fourth place of last season. We are a little disappointed, but sometimes life can't give us a satisfactory answer."
"Feyenoord was the third place last season. They only got 1 point in the last two rounds, and PSV Eindhoven showed a good state."
"But the season has just begun, and we will gradually get into the state."
When asked about losing the key battle, De Boer said calmly: "There are 34 rounds of games in the Eredivisie. If we If we can defeat all opponents except the championship rivals, we can still win the championship. ”
When asked about the lack of core players in the team, De Boer responded with a smile: "I have been asked similar questions in the past four years, but there will always be young players growing up."
After saying this, De Boer said with lingering feelings: "If you pay attention to the Eredivisie this season, you will have a more comprehensive understanding of what I said."
"Our first team won the Eredivisie for four consecutive years, and our youth team is currently ranked first in the Eredivisie. This is a virtuous operation."
At this time, a media called "United Times" asked De Boer whether he would consider letting Sun Yu enter the first team.
Hearing this question, De Boer, who had been a hot potato for a long time, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Facing the largest Chinese paper media in the Netherlands, De Boer showed a professional smile: "This is a pleasant question. This young man has impressed everyone with his excellent performance."
"The club has paid full attention to Sun Yu's growth. We all think that there should be enough games at this age, so we will not promote Sun Yu to the first team for the time being."
"But we will consider giving Sun Yu the opportunity to adapt to the first-team games in September, and everything will proceed steadily."
"We are optimistic about his future development, but we have to take it step by step."
......
After seeing this interview, Sun Yu immediately checked the September schedule on the Ajax official website.
Ajax has a total of five games in September, three Eredivisie games, one Champions League game, and one Dutch Cup game.
In the Champions League group stage, Ajax's first opponent is Paris Saint-Germain. This level of competition has nothing to do with him for the time being.
There is a Champions League group stage, and there will definitely be a double-match schedule in a week, but the league opponent after the Champions League is Feyenoord.
De Boer should not dare to put himself in the team list in such an important game. If he loses to Feyenoord again, it will be a bad thing.
After looking around, Sun Yu has limited the games he can play to the second round of the Dutch Cup. Ajax is likely to draw a second-tier league team, from the Dutch Eredivisie to Holland.
Anyway, it is certain that the difficulty of the game will definitely be lower than the Dutch Eredivisie.
But Sun Yu does not rule out playing in a bully game. Playing in such a game can not only improve the data, but also earn points for the three-star club.
The game is not difficult, and it is good to have both face and substance!
Although Ajax only has five games in September, it seems easy, but this month is not easy for all major European clubs.
Because the first week of September is an international match day, all European teams have to play two games, including one in the European Cup.Qualifying.
As the top club in the Eredivisie, Ajax has at least eight to ten players participating in international competitions.
After all this trouble, Sun Yu might get a chance to play.
Since the opportunity may come at any time, the most important thing for Sun Yu right now is to steadily improve and produce convincing data in the Eredivisie, waiting for the call-up of the first team at any time.
At present, the Ajax youth team's weekly schedule is very suitable for Sun Yu's improvement.
After a day of training, the accumulated experience value of twenty attributes exceeds 800.
Although the distribution is relatively scattered, the benefits are not small.
On the contrary, after a game, Sun Yu had muscle soreness all day and could only focus on recovery.
In comparison, Sun Yu feels that the current state is more suitable for low-key development and stable improvement.
Of course, with international match days and winter breaks occupying a considerable amount of time, the Eredivisie will also have two games a week.
If there is only one league round per week, 38 rounds of matches will take nine and a half months, and this is without international match days and winter breaks.
If all these are added together, a season will take nearly a year, which is really confusing.
This is not done in serious professional competitions. All matches must end in early May.
August 26.
De Hekant Park Stadium.
Ajax Youth Team went to Nijmegen to play against the weak Eredivisie team Eichels.
Nijmegen is much larger than Sittard in terms of area and population, but Eichels is an out-and-out small team.
After the first three rounds of the Eredivisie, Eichels is the only team among the 20 teams in the Eredivisie to have lost three games in a row.
If losing to a strong team is not a big deal, the key is that they lost to PSV Eindhoven Youth Team and Telstar, and these two teams had a record of 1 win and 2 losses in the first three rounds.
This is completely the development path of a relegated team.
Before the start of the fourth round, the head coach of the Eichels team said bluntly at the press conference: "No matter what method we use, we must strive to get points in the next game."
The other head coach vowed, but Stam was calm at the press conference: "Facing the opponent at the bottom of the standings, we will make some rotations in the lineup."
In this game, Stam made a large rotation of the lineup, and a total of six substitutes got the chance to start.
Including Onana, Zivkovic, Muric and many other main players sat on the bench.
During the warm-up stage, Sun Yu could only sigh at the level of the club.
The entire stadium has only one row of seats, even if it is full, it can only accommodate 4,500 people.
It is hard to imagine that such a stadium can be used to play in the Dutch Eredivisie. In China, it is only the level of campus football.
Seeing that the Ajax youth team rotated six players, the head coach of Eichels suddenly felt that the plan had changed, and decisively played against the Ajax youth team after the opening.
After a large rotation, the passing and cooperation of the Ajax Youth Team was obviously not as smooth as in the first three games.
On the contrary, the Eichels team fought desperately at home and got two scoring opportunities in the first fifteen minutes.
In the ninth minute, their center forward slipped into the penalty area from behind the Ajax Youth Team's substitute central defender and almost scored.
But I don't know if he was too nervous or his pace was not adjusted well, his shot facing the empty goal was actually higher than the crossbar.
In the fourteenth minute, the Eichels midfielder suddenly shot a cold arrow outside the penalty area.
The angle of this shot was average, but it was shot suddenly and with full power.
In a hurry, the substitute goalkeeper of the Ajax Youth Team almost saved the ball into his own goal.
The football hit his hand, bounced on the right goal post and flew out of the bottom line.
Seeing that the Ajax Youth Team's defense was so weak, the Eichels players who played at home suddenly became excited, and seven players came to the front court.
Corner kick to the back point!
The goalkeeper, who almost made a mistake just now, was still nervous. He lifted the ball to the opponent's feet with one hand.
The Eichels player raised his leg and shot, Bazor threw his body into the air and blocked the opponent's shot with his head.
Riedwald faced his own goal and hooked the ball to the midfield.
The next moment!
The Ajax fans who followed the team to the away game suddenly burst into huge cheers.
Near the midfield, there were only three defensive players around Sun Yu, substitute center forward Baker and Runiger!
"Stop the ball!"
Sun Yu reminded Baker loudly, because the one defending Baker was the Eichels midfielder.
Baker was originally a power center, and he used his body to block the defensive player tightly.
As the football fell,Instantly, Baker leaned against the defender and stopped the ball.
Beautiful!
This guy has good basic skills!
"Send!"
At the moment Baker stopped the ball, Sun Yu shouted and rushed to the front court from the left.
Baker did not look at Sun Yu's position, and turned around and kicked the ball to the left side of the front court.
Sun Yu and Eichels' right back rushed to the ball desperately, and he left his opponent behind with a visible speed advantage.
Eichels goalkeeper saw his defender was left behind, and decisively abandoned the goal.
A few seconds later, Sun Yu and the goalkeeper rushed to the ball at almost the same time.
The goalkeeper decisively put down the shovel, but Sun Yu's feet were faster, and he picked up the ball before the opponent touched the ball.
Amid cheers, Sun Yu caught up with the ball and pushed the ball into the empty goal!
1:0!
After scoring the goal, Sun Yu rushed to the away team's stand, opened his arms in the eyes of Ajax fans, and slid to his knees!
If the previous games were about who was better, this game was about who was worse.
Although the strength of the Ajax youth team declined after the rotation, Sun Yu is an absolute supporter of rotation.
It's not because the person being rotated is not himself. Even if the head coach wants to rotate himself, Sun Yu will accept it with pleasure.
Since the number of registered players for a team is set at 25, there must be a reason for it.
In the eleven positions for the game, there are two options for each position.
Once the main players are injured, suspended or in poor condition, the substitutes must be plug-and-play.
Don't expect the substitutes to completely replace the main players, at least let the team run normally.
But players are not No. 7 batteries. If your baby is out of power, you can change a battery and it will be cool again.
If you point to a player and pull him to death, and then use the player until he is useless, and then think of using the substitute, the first three to five games will definitely be a series of super huge mistakes.
Moreover, for a European giant that has to play more than 60 games, 25 players may not be enough. Some less intense and less important games can allow substitutes and youth players to play in a mixed manner.
In this regard, Manchester United during Ferguson's period and Arsenal during Wenger's period are masters among masters.
If Manchester United is ready to train a player, the first step is to find a game with a high probability of winning and put the player on the big list.
Once the victory is determined, the young player will be given three to ten minutes of playing time.
The first is to let young players experience the atmosphere of professional games. Most young players have a blank mind when they play for the first time.
The second is to introduce players to fans, and fans will also give young players the greatest encouragement.
Not to mention Arsenal in the Wenger era. At that time, the happiest thing for Arsenal fans was to see a few promising stars every season.
In the Arteta era, they wished that a set of lineups plus four or five substitutes would be used from the beginning of the season to the end of the season.
As a result, in the Champions League quarterfinals, they met Bayern, which was in the worst form in recent seasons. There was no one at left back, so they were forced to use Chiviol, who had been on the bench for a long time, and he was beaten into a sieve.
Although Arsenal finally won the Premier League runner-up and the Champions League quarterfinals, which looked good, the head coach really had no courage in using people.
Arteta learned Guardiola's tactics and Guardiola's system, but he didn't learn the essence.
It's not that Arsenal doesn't have excellent young players, but no one uses them.
Young players who don't have a chance to play are always useless. Not only does he dare not use young players, he doesn't even dare to use veterans.
Although Manchester United won the worst ranking in the history of the Premier League at the end of the season, they made good use of many young players.
Teng Hai was sprayed as a funny person on the Internet, but his use of young people and substitutes was basically gradual.
Before the 18-year-old young central defender Kambwala started, Ten Hag gave him three opportunities to play, and the time gradually increased, so this kid played like a veteran in the first start, and he was mentally prepared.
Similarly, of the six players Stam used, four had played in the first three games.
The two players who had not played were panicking.
After losing the ball, the Eichels team had no choice but to attack.
In the 24th minute, the Ajax youth team seized the opponent's passing error and passed the ball quickly in the middle and front court. Van der Beck broke into the penalty area and scored.
2:0!
In the 32nd minute, Eichels seized the coordination error between the substitute central defender and the goalkeeper, and their forward picked up the leak and scored a goal.
After scoring a goal, the Eichels players were more determined in attacking, and this determination determined the goal.
In the 43rd minute, Sun Yu intercepted the opponent's central defender's pass in the front court.He passed the ball to the right side where the defense was empty after two people blocked him.
After Luniger got rid of him, he tried to shoot, but was tripped by the defender.
Penalty!
Sun Yu scored the penalty kick.
3:1!
At the end of the first half, Stam simply replaced Sun Yu with Muric, which was also a rotation and rest.
Ajax Youth Team finally defeated Eichels 4-2 away and continued to rank first in the Dutch Eredivisie with a record of four wins.
Sun Yu contributed 9 goals and 1 assist in four games. At this pace, he felt that he only needed half a season to lock in the top scorer of the Dutch Eredivisie.
It's too easy to bully the weak in the Dutch Eredivisie!
After the game, Sun Yu saw a piece of news in the evening.
His price increased in "Transfermarkt"!
