; "Bernhard Pieters!"

As soon as Yang Huan heard this name, he immediately felt familiar, and remembered it after thinking about it a little. XsHuotXT;; f; bf4; f;|;;;;;;;;;

"Oh, so you're talking about him!"

If you want to talk about this Bernhard Pieters, it is definitely a big player in the German academy.

Fans probably know him mainly because in 2006, the then head coach of the German national team, Jurgen Klinsmann, wanted to invite him to the German national team as a technical adviser.

This incident caused an uproar throughout Germany and even the world at that time.

The reason is not that it is a technical consultant, but that Bernhard Peters is not a football coach at all, and he has nothing to do with football at all, he is a hockey coach!

It was during this incident that the name Bernhard Peters was first heard in the world.

But in the end, the German Football Association did not allow Klinsmann to do this, refusing to let Bernhard Pieters work in the national team, and chose Summerer instead.

Interestingly, Loew replaced Jurgen Klinsmann as the head coach of the German national team after the World Cup in '06, and the first thing he did after taking office was to invite Pieters into the national team as a consultant.

What is it about Peters that makes Klinsmann and Loew take him so seriously?

"Born in Reine, West, northern Germany, Bernhard joined the German Hockey Association at the age of 23 and coached the youth team since 195 and won several world and European championships, so in December 2000 he succeeded Paul Riesek as head coach of the German hockey national team."

"From the moment he took over, German hockey was at its peak and the results were outstanding, and Bernhard Pieters has made a name for himself in German sporting circles, especially with the kind of fresh thinking he has shown in the hockey team.

"He was very good in terms of training methods, player development, game analysis and team management, and he was very advanced, so in 2006 Klinsmann moved the idea of inviting him to the national team."

Speaking of this, Beiersdorf pouted, "However, it's a pity that the old man of the German Football Association refused to accept such an advanced change, so he refused to live or die, and even gave Klinsmann a Summer." ”

This incident, when Yang Huan was a fan in his previous life, he also heard about it and was deeply impressed.

It is even rumored that Klinsmann fell out with the German Football Association because of this and finally left after the World Cup.

Later, after Loew took over the national team, he chose a compromise plan, which was to invite Peters to work part-time as an external adviser, and Peters also left the hockey national team to go to Hoffenheim as the head of youth training. r.”

When Yang Huan heard this, he suddenly realized.

"No wonder Hoffenheim has had a blowout of talent in recent years, and it turns out that the talent behind it is this Bernhard Pieters!"

German football has always been very low-key, and people who attach so much importance to youth training with Yang Huan don't know that Pieters, a great god, still succumbs to a small village like Hoffenheim?

Tyrannical things, tyrannical things!

Beiersdorf nodded and said, "Yes, Hoffenheim launched a youth reform under the auspices of Pieters, and after several years of deep cultivation, Hoffenheim is now one of the best youth teams in the Bundesliga." ”

The Hoffenheim Academy has been awarded three stars by the German Football Association, the highest honour in the German Academy.

From this it is not difficult to see the success of the Hoffenheim academy, and it is not difficult to see the level of Bernhard Pieters.

What interests Yang Huan even more is that this person also attaches great importance to data analysis, which is undoubtedly very consistent with Southampton.

Moreover, if such a famous youth talent at home and abroad in Germany is invited to preside over the Hamburg academy, the fans will definitely be excited, and then Kerkhoff and others dare to say anything? Kreuzer still has to obediently hand over power?

"Dietma, do you have any contact with him?" Yang Huan asked.

'Yes, I've been in contact with him a few times because when I was at RB Leipzig I thought about bringing him to Leipzig, but he was more interested in the west, but I think he would prefer to be in the north.

"Why?" Yang Huan asked curiously.

Hoffenheim is in the southwest of Germany, while Pieters' hometown is in Reiner, the north.

Could it be that this guy is homesick?

"He has four children, he wants a better education in the big city, and he and his family prefer to live in the North German region, so I don't think it would be a problem if he was invited to Hamburg."

Compared to Hoffenheim, the big city of Hamburg is even more attractive.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, and you must dig him up for the burger!"

Beiersdorf nodded, "Nakhof's ......"

"Inform them when the time comes, I don't believe they dare to object!"

Youth training is such a thing, whoever opposes it will die!

The fans are the first to not let them go!

"Okay, you guys hurry up and prepare for this matter, the next period will be very busy!"

Beiersdorf and Thomas Lake both stood up in unison.

"Young Master Huan, don't worry, we won't let you down!"

"Yes, Young Master Huan, I am very confident!"

Yang Huan waved his hand at the two and nodded with a smile.

But suddenly something came to mind, "Oh, yes, Dietma, you can arrange it for me, and I'll meet Tuchel while there's still time!" ”

Mainz is just west of Frankfurt, so close that Tuchel drove in less than half an hour, which was very convenient.

"I'll arrange it right away!"

…………

…………

A day later, a lagunda conquistador drove slowly towards Southampton's Staupwood training base.

Security guard Peter recognized it at a glance as Young Master Huan's car, and immediately opened the door to let the car pass.

The Conqueror came to the door of the first team's training building and came to a slow halt.

The car door opened, and Yang Huan got out of the car.

"Young Master Huan, this is Southampton's training base?"

Tailgating Yang Huan out of the car were two tall and strong men, both about forty years old, one with long hair in the middle and the other slightly bald.

The one who asked was Jurgen Klopp, who had long hair in the middle.

As for the slightly balding one, it was the manager of Mainz, Thomas Tuchel.

These two guys were very interested in Bielsa, and as soon as they heard that Yang Huan was going back to Southampton, they immediately offered to ask Yang Huan to recommend them and let them meet with Bielsa.

Thomas Tuchel is better, Mainz have no midweek fixtures, but Jurgen Klopp is different, and Borussia Dortmund have a Champions League semi-final trip to Madrid in midweek.

But as soon as they heard that they had the opportunity to ask Bielsa for advice in person, these two guys were so excited that they took time out of their busy schedules to follow Yang Huan to the saints.

However, it's okay to do this, along the way, Yang Huan directly finalized the coaching contract for the new season with them.

Next season, Jurgen Klopp will take over Inter Milan and take on the burden of reviving Inter.

As for Tuchel, if he can negotiate with Mainz, he will be the head coach of Hamburg, and if he can't agree, he will make a plan behind the scenes, and then arrange an assistant coach to be the head coach until a year has passed.

However, it should not be necessary.

Just as Yang Huan's plane arrived at Southampton Airport, Beiersdorf called and said that the talks with Mainz had been successful, and Tuchel was freed after paying a six-figure liquidated damages.

"Tsk, Saints' Stauptwood, it really deserves to be the most beautiful training base in Europe!" Tuchel was also impressed.

Look at this layout, this environment, this scenery, to be able to train in this kind of place, anyone will be more diligent and hardworking.

"Let's go, they should be resting at this time!"

Yang Huan had called Bielsa to say hello before, and they arrived at the right time.

Walk into the training building and go straight to the coach's office on the second floor.

As soon as they walked out of the stairs, Yang Huan and the others heard Bielsa's voice from a distance.

It turned out that he was not resting.

Walking around the corner, I found that the coach's office was very lively, not only the coaching staff, but also the players.

Bielsa was standing in front of a large blackboard explaining tactics, and the blackboard was densely painted, with names, standing charts, arrows, and some curves that went around and around, a bit like ghost drawings, God knows what it was?

But Bielsa's words, everyone understood.

"The current Bayern Munich is a bit like Barcelona, this is not what Guardiola wants, but there is no way, he has such a group of players in his hands, he can't change it, he can only do this!"

"Barcelona has a characteristic of possession of the ball, that is, the first choice after holding the ball is to stabilize, and ensuring that the ball is not lost again is the first task, so they are not fast enough to switch from defense to attack, Bayern Munich also has this characteristic, and it is even more deadly, because they lack the deep technical skills of Barcelona players!"

"I studied Jurgen Klopp's tactics at Borussia Dortmund and I think he did a very good job of turning passivity into initiative, giving up possession and strengthening the tight pressing and interception in midfield!"

"In the first leg, we did a good job, in the second leg, we continued to do so, if Lahm still plays in the back, we will adopt this tactic, counterattack and focus on two wings, Raphinha and Contento, both are weak underbelly!"

'If Lahm goes back to right-back, it will be easier!'

When the members of the coaching staff and players heard this, they burst into laughter.

It can be seen that the 3-0 defeat of Bayern Munich in the first leg gave Southampton a very strong self-confidence.

It is also this battle that makes it clear to the saints from top to bottom that as long as they do their best to play, even if they are as strong as Bayern Munich, they can be cut off the horse, and even give them great humiliation!

"Bayern Munich's counter-attack was mainly on the flanks, especially Ribery on the left."

As he spoke, Bielsa began to draw on the blackboard again.

'Ribery taking and dribbling on the left and then suddenly splitting the ball down the left, Robben attacking and using the gaps in our defence to move left and right to create chances, which is what Thomas Muller is very good at.

"So, tomorrow, we will focus on this set of simulation training in the training session!"

There is basically no suspense for the team in the Premier League at the moment, and the defending league title can also be said to be nine out of ten.

In this case, Bielsa gave up the league and focused on the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, which is understandable.

After all, if they can go one step further in the Champions League, it will be quite exciting for Southampton.

The only regrettable thing is that for the sake of the league and the Champions League, Southampton had to arrange for the youngsters to play in the FA Cup, but they stopped in the semi-finals and missed the FA Cup final.

But with Southampton's excellent performance this season, it is not easy to defend the Premier League title and perform so eye-catching in the Champions League.

It's just that within the Saints team, up to Yang Huan, to the players and coaching staff, to the ordinary staff, they all hope that the team can go further and continue to maintain this momentum.

Now every step forward is making history!

And everyone in the team is bound to go down in history!
