Chapter 662: Open Gong!
Ye Qiu's speech at the press conference on the foundation laying of the Guangdong Tottenham Football School quickly caused a huge repercussion in the world, especially in China, where almost countless fans and even people from all walks of life gave high praise to such speeches, and even some official media came out to comment.
"The value of Ye Qiu's speech this time is immeasurable, although he is talking about football, but the value revealed in the core is applicable to all walks of life, to everyone in society, including the government and officials."
"All teams come to China for the purpose of improving the team's image and obtaining commercial income, but Ye Qiu, the pride of our Chinese football, has brought back the most advanced football concepts from the outside, and he has shown us a way in the process of exploring the confused Chinese football!"
"In this era of rampant materialism, in this era of gradual solidification of social classes, in this era of money-only theory, what Ye Qiu conveys is a kind of equality, the equality of officials and citizens, the equality of the rich and the poor, no one should be smarter than whom, and no one should put on a domineering and lofty posture, isn't it exactly what this society lacks?"
In addition to the official media and major media outlets, fans and people from all walks of life have also expressed their opinions on Weibo, WeChat and online forums, and almost all of them believe that Ye Qiu's remarks represent a value that is lacking in today's society.
Many people blame Ye Qiu, thinking that he now has money, status and status, and he doesn't have a backache when he speaks, but have they ever considered that Ye Qiu went to Europe alone back then, did they have that courage? Ye Qiu was treated coldly in Ajax alone, but he relied on his own efforts and persistence to achieve success, do they have such strength and determination? β
"Ye Qiu, the son of a Xiamen snack bar owner, an ordinary person who can only go to a third-rate university, he has created a world in Europe by his own efforts, and more importantly, he has never stopped his pursuit in the experience and exercise of this society, and has never stopped his own pace of progress."
This speech reflects Ye Qiu's summary of his coaching career and social experience in the past ten years, his current mentality, and his views and experiences on life, career, success and failure. Isn't it worth thinking about the rich, the poor? β
The heated discussion caused by Ye Qiu is almost overwhelming in China, and all newspapers, TV stations, and website forums can see people analyzing and discussing Ye Qiu's remarks everywhere, and even gossip has come out, and some of the top leaders of the central government almost took the case and applauded loudly after seeing these words.
Maybe this is talking about football, maybe there are some problems with the description and wording of this remark, but the meaning revealed in these words is worth thinking about by many people, whether you are for or against, you should think about it.
On the contrary, Ye Qiu, after saying this, ended the press conference not long after, and then led the team to play a warm-up match with the Hengda team in Guangzhou, and Tottenham Hotspur defeated Hengda 7:0, showing the strength and level of the world's top teams, and Tottenham Hotspur's warm-up game also ushered in four consecutive wins.
After this game, Tottenham Hotspur left Guangzhou and split into two ways, Sandro and other players went to participate in the Brazilian Under-20 national youth team, while the other players went to Amsterdam to participate in the annual Amsterdam Invitational Tournament.
This time, the two teams invited by Ajax are Juventus in Serie A and Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga.
After Tottenham Hotspur arrived in Amsterdam, they took a short break to start the warm-up match, the first game against Juventus, but the focus of Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus's much-watched match ended in a 0:0 dull match.
Not only that, but in the second cup match, Tottenham Hotspur lost 0:2 to the defending Bundesliga champion Borussia Dortmund.
Klopp said at the post-match press conference that the current Tottenham Hotspur team is not in the best condition, and Ye Qiu said with a smile that Dortmund's strength is indeed very good, and the age structure of this team is also very reasonable, and he believes that Dortmund will be a very strong rising star in the European arena.
After the only weighty and convincing match in the Amsterdam Cup, Tottenham Hotspur not only ended their Asian tour, but also raised concerns among some fans about how much fighting power the north London side had after selling the entire midfield line-up.
As Klopp said, in the Amsterdam Cup Invitational Tournament, Tottenham Hotspur was not in good shape, not only that, but the main lineup of this team did not play, including Cavani, Messi and all the players who participated in the Copa America were refrigerated by Ye Qiu, so this is a semi-main Tottenham Hotspur.
So far, Tottenham Hotspur has not shown its strongest main squad to others, so there has been controversy and discussion about the strength of Tottenham Hotspur.
It's not that Ye Qiu pretends to be mysterious, but this has a lot to do with the schedule of Tottenham Hotspur in the new season.
Tottenham Hotspur's first round of this season is at White Hart Lane against David Moyes' Everton, and the quality of this team is not difficult, but what really matters is that Tottenham Hotspur will next face Manchester United away and then Manchester City at home.
Heading into September, after a two-week international break, Tottenham Hotspur travel to West Ham United, then Liverpool at home, Wigan Athletic away, then Arsenal at home and then Newcastle United.
Such a schedule is definitely a devil's schedule, because Tottenham Hotspur almost in the opening stage of the league, all the strong teams in the Premier League, except for Chelsea, six of the eight league rounds have been against the Premier League strong teams, and even Wigan Athletic and Everton are also strong teams.
In the face of such a schedule, especially from the aspect of winning the league, Tottenham Hotspur must play from the beginning of the league, otherwise, Tottenham Hotspur will become a big loss in the strong dialogue.
Because this kind of strong dialogue involves not just three points, but six points in and out, and more importantly, it will have a huge impact on the team's morale to win the championship, and even if they don't play well in the opening stage, Tottenham Hotspur is likely to miss out on the title and leave the championship early.
At the very least, everyone knows very well that the fate of the Premier League's four consecutive titles has not been broken in the past 100 years of history.
Not only is the league start to a devilish one, but the January, February and March fixtures have also been a nightmare, with West Ham United, Manchester City, Wigan Athletic, Liverpool, Newcastle, Arsenal, Manchester United, Everton, Stoke City and Chelsea.
It can be said that if Tottenham Hotspur wants to win the championship, these two devil schedules must be passed, if they can't survive these two devil schedules, then Tottenham Hotspur's title ambition will be difficult to achieve.
There are a lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans, even the club's CEO Ron? After the schedule was released, Gulley expressed his team's dissatisfaction in the media, believing that such a schedule would be an absolute torture for Tottenham Hotspur.
However, the FA has repeatedly stressed that it is not intended to trouble Tottenham Hotspur in the schedule, or to artificially create the difficulty of Tottenham Hotspur's quadruple title: "Our fixtures are drawn randomly, not like Serie A, so our fixtures sometimes seem chaotic and even unscientific. β
"But we have reason to believe that the schedule is just a negligible factor for those teams who aspire to win the championship, if they really have the strength, then no matter what kind of schedule they encounter, they can still win the championship, and those teams who blame the schedule for the problem often lose in terms of strength!"
It does make sense, because the reason why Chelsea lost the title last season was attributed to three consecutive defeats against three strong teams around Christmas, resulting in a loss of morale in the team, but some people believe that Chelsea's strength itself is not enough, otherwise, how to explain the three consecutive defeats?
Since the schedule was released, Tottenham Hotspur began to consider the team's preparation for the start of the league and the period after the winter break, and even the coaching staff and experts from the research center have drawn up a detailed plan for this season's schedule, and the plan even includes what type of training will be carried out in which time period, and there are very clear arrangements.
With the arrival of MeΓ«l Seman and Demichelis, as well as a group of experts from the former Milan laboratory, the research center has become more staffed, so that the various research and preparations have been carried out smoothly.
This summer's pre-season training camp was carried out in strict accordance with the plan submitted by the research center. Brandt, or new signing Mel Seeman and others, they all have a wealth of experience, and I believe that their plan can help the team better cope with this period of the devil's schedule.
Returning from Amsterdam to London, the team has been resting at the Theorebold training base, more about revising tactics for the new season and adjusting the form of the players, especially those who have played in the Copa America.
Soon, the team ushered in the Community Shield of the Premier League's warm-up match, against Roberto Mancini's Manchester City.
Manchester City have continued to strengthen their squad this season, first poaching Nasri and Klich from Arsenal, then bringing in Hargreaves from Manchester United's free transfer, and Savic from Partizan Belgrade, the whole team has significantly improved in strength and fighting power compared to last season.
At the very least, the depth of Manchester City's bench is absolutely amazing, as long as the team's main squad is adjusted, I believe that Manchester City has a lot to do this season, and even has a good chance of attacking the league title.
It was in such a strong dialogue that Tottenham Hotspur lost 2:3 at Wembley Stadium, lost to Manchester City, and lost the Community Shield, which also made many people worried about the current situation of Tottenham Hotspur.
Ye Qiu still didn't have the strongest main lineup in this game, and the midfield configuration is Eriksen and Phil? Jones and Andrea Pirlo, while Alba, Nastasic, Kompany and Kyle are at the back? Walker, the front trident is Hazard, Raul and Ribery, and the players who played in the Copa America still did not play.
Although Tottenham Hotspur did not do their best, the team's performance was still good, still inclined to attack, and played back and forth with Manchester City without giving in, and Pirlo's performance in midfield also won recognition, both goals came from his planning and direction.
However, the weakness of the midfield caused by the single midfielder Andrea Pirlo, as well as the combination of young Nastasic and Kompany at the back, made Tottenham's first appearance in England seem problematic. With Silva's appearance, Tottenham Hotspur's backline will be strengthened.
How to solve the problem of midfield? Does Vidal have what it takes to play? Will his arrival strengthen Tottenham's midfield? What about making Tottenham Hotspur's midfield more balanced in attack and defence?
This is also a concern for all fans, including Tottenham Hotspur fans.
In a one-on-one interview with The Times and The Guardian after the team's defeat to Manchester City, Ye Qiu said that he thinks the team's preparations so far have gone well, and he is satisfied with the current situation of the team and is also relieved by the staffing.
'You know, being a manager is different from the fans and the journalists, the problems we see are different, it's because we are standing from different angles, I need to think about it a lot, and even I need to make some trade-offs at certain times, and I need to know clearly how to adjust the form and psychology of the players so that they can be a threat in important games.
"Of course, I don't mean to criticize the fans and journalists, for the fans, I want to say that I like the fans in England, but for some football journalists who attack as soon as we lose, and even seem to have to play us as if we are going to be relegated, I can only say that the only thing I agree with you is your right to speak."
Regarding the devil's schedule for the new season, Ye Qiu also said in an interview that he really attaches great importance to it, because this period of schedule is at the beginning of the league, and if it is not played well, it will affect the entire league.
"Mr. Ye Qiu, many Tottenham Hotspur fans hope that you can continue the team's unbeaten record, you must know that you are currently unbeaten in 50 games, which is very close to the record set by Chelsea you led back then, and the 58-game unbeaten record of AC Milan coached by Fabio Capello, what do you think personally?"
Sheehan, a young celebrity reporter for the Guardian? Ingle interviewed him in Ye Qiu's office.
"I'm going to say I don't value this record, you're going to call me a hypocrisy!" Ye Qiu's words amused himself and Sheen? Ingle laughed, "And I'm sure Tottenham fans wouldn't want to hear that, but I'm still saying that we have to make a trade-off sometimes." β
'Of course, we give it our all every game and we want to win every game, but sometimes we have to think about it because as I'm the manager of the team I need to think and look at everything from a higher level.
"So, for the record, all I can say is, we're going to give it our all!"
Sheehan? After listening to this, Ingle nodded repeatedly, "A reader wrote to my column, and he asked me to ask you, in the more than 100-year history of the English top league, no team has ever won four consecutive titles, do you think your team has such a possibility?" Or how confident are you about winning this season? β
After Ye Qiu listened, he pondered for a moment, "I can't answer this question now, because the league hasn't started yet." β
'I've always felt that the league is a process of building confidence, so that's why I said it's very important to start because a good start gives us a lot more confidence, and this season we've made some big changes and I think we're going to get better, but it takes a game, a real game to show that.'
"I want to say I'm confident that I can help the team win the title, but the league is a long one, I don't know what will happen in the process, but I still believe that I, my players, and the whole coaching staff can overcome all the difficulties and win the league title!"
Four days after Ye Qiu's interview, the Premier League finally kicked off gradually.
The opening match of the league was Wigan Athletic's home game against promoted Mannanhampton.
Section? Adrianse's Saints have achieved the feat of promotion over the past two seasons, and the young squad has also produced a number of outstanding Academy players, while Adrianse has not made too many additions this summer, and he still chooses to stick to his squad from the Championship, only with some changes.
However, the Saints drew 1-1 away to Wigan Athletic in their first league game.
West Ham beat Blackburn Rovers 2-1 away, Liverpool drew 1-1 at home to Sunderland, Arsenal drew 0-0 at Newcastle and Chelsea drew 0-0 at Stoke City.
Manchester United beat West Bromwich Albion 2-1 away but paid the price for Nemanja Vidic's injury, while Tottenham Hotspur drew 1-1 at home to Everton, with Messi netting a goal on his debut and Raul providing an assist from centre-forward.
Thiago? Silva's return has strengthened Tottenham's defensive line, and Alves has returned to play on the right side, Tottenham Hotspur's overall strength has been strengthened, but the problem in the midfield has not been solved. The midfield of Jones and Andrea Pirlo is still a little frizzy and weak.
But the first round was dominated by Manchester City, with Manic's side beating promoted Maswansea 4-0 at home to leapfrog the top spot in the Premier League table.
But for this round, fans and the media generally do not pay much attention to it, but in the second round of the Premier League, there were two strong dialogues between Arsenal and Liverpool at home and Manchester United at Tottenham Hotspur, which undoubtedly detonated the Premier League market in the new season!
