Volume 1 Chapter 51 Ajax is over to you!
There are a lot of players in the second team who are still studying, and now that the game is over, they are also on vacation.
This group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old children took advantage of this opportunity to have a good discussion, how to watch the European Cup this summer, they have all talked about it, and they will chase it together when the time comes, and watch every game as much as possible.
Mixed up with the players of the second team, Rick Link and Roland were beaten by Bobby? Harms and Van Doudra were also chatting on the side, while Huang Chu and Eliza were the hosts, packing up their things.
Only Ye Qiu and Van Praag walked slowly along the shaded road in the community.
"Next season, Van der Vaart and Sneijder should be on the first team, right?" Van Praag asked with a smile.
Ye Qiu smiled slightly, "It's really difficult for the second team to meet their progress anymore. ”
"If, I want you to stay and continue to lead them, can you say yes?" Van Praag stopped his steps, looked at Ye Qiu, and asked seriously.
"Mr. Van Praag, I have a lot of respect for you, but I really want to have the opportunity to go out there and coach a team alone, I don't know if it will be successful, but at least I'm going to try!" Ye Qiu politely declined.
After hearing this, Van Praag shook his head with a smile, "If you want to coach alone, you don't have to go outside, stay at Ajax, and still be able to coach alone, haven't you ever thought about it?" ”
Ye Qiu was stunned, he couldn't turn around.
"I want you to be the first team manager next season, and at the same time, put you in charge of De Tokmost, carry out the round of reforms you mentioned earlier, and you are right, we should scrape the carrion, so I will fully support you to form a new Ajax!"
Van Praag's words made many different promises, each of which was a heavy temptation that Ye Qiu could not refuse, not only because of Van Praag, but also because he represented Ajax.
"Will anyone else do?" Ye Qiu understands that Ajax's current power may not be all dictated by Van Praag.
Van Praag understood Ye Qiu's worries, and promised: "I still have this self-confidence and ability, I said let you go, others will definitely not say the second sentence, if you step down, it must be after I step down, as long as I am still the chairman of Ajax for a day, then you will definitely be able to sit in this position, at least, I will give you three years!" ”
Three years, he also gave Van Gaal three years that year, and three years later, Van Gaal brought him a brilliant revival.
"In these three years, I don't ask for results, I give you the power you want, and you want me to see hope, as long as hope is there, as long as I am still the chairman of Ajax, then in the next three years, you must still be the head coach of Ajax!"
Seeing Ye Qiu's lips move, Van Praag reached out again and stopped him.
"Don't answer too quickly, think about it, you should understand that once you become the manager of Ajax, your youth, your resume, your experience, your every move, will be the focus of everyone's attention, what will you face at that time? I'm sure you should be well aware of what happened to Waters and Westerhoff. ”
Ye Qiu was suddenly a little moved, because Van Praag was tantamount to putting his fate in Ajax directly into his own hands, which made Ye Qiu deeply feel the trust and affirmation of the chairman of Ajax.
"I can answer you right now!" Ye Qiu also looked at Van Praag.
The latter took a deep breath and looked at Ye Qiu, thinking about the worst in his heart, because he felt that not everyone necessarily had the courage to accept such a challenge, especially this kind of challenge that has been in the limelight for a long time, has been pointed at for a long time, and has been criticized and blamed for a long time.
"I'm going to do everything I can to help Ajax get back to the top, maybe it's going to be tough on the road, but I'm confident enough to deal with all kinds of difficulties and I'm going to succeed, I promise!"
Van Praag was a little surprised, but quickly showed an appreciative smile.
Back then, in the locker room of the humble Olympic Stadium, Van Gaal, who had just turned 40, also assured him in this way, but Van Gaal was so excited that his face turned red at that time, but now Ye Qiu looks more confident and calm.
Bobby? Harms was right, Ye Qiu's progress was too fast, so fast that everyone couldn't accept it.
"Then let's settle it like this, let your agent come to the Arenal Stadium tomorrow, and I will arrange someone to negotiate a contract with her!"
When he said this, Van Praag patted Ye Qiu's shoulder hard, "In the next three years, Ajax will be handed over to you!" ”
Ye Qiu watched Van Praag's departure, his heart was full of disbelief, but more of an excitement about the upcoming challenges he would accept, because he would become the youngest manager in the history of Ajax, and the youngest manager in the Eredivisie and even in Europe's major leagues.
As soon as he thought of this, he had to admire Van Praag for being able to entrust such a heavy responsibility to a 25-year-old young man.
A sense of knowing the grace of the encounter couldn't help but make Ye Qiu's heart full of gratitude.
Back home, the players were gone.
Before leaving, they all helped Huang Chu and Eliza clean up the house and cleaned it up.
Bobby? Harms and Van Doud also left, leaving Rick Link and Roland, sitting in the living room, watching TV with Huang Chu and Eliza, and as soon as they saw Ye Qiu walk in, the four of them immediately looked at him.
"Do you all know the way?" Ye Qiu asked with a wry smile.
The four of them all nodded in unison, and among them, Huang Chu was the most nervous, because she didn't want Ye Qiu to move away.
"Chairman Van Praag has just sent me an invitation to coach the first team next season, I ......" Ye Qiu deliberately stopped and shook his head when he said this.
Everyone was immediately disappointed, and they all thought that Ye Qiu had refused.
“…… I promised! Ye Qiu said with a smile.
"I'll you, you promised?" Roland jumped up directly from the sofa and copied Ye Qiu's mantra.
Ye Qiu nodded, "Yes, I agreed, and he also asked me to tell my agent that I will go to the Arena Stadium tomorrow to negotiate the contract, so all the contract matters will be handed over to you, Eliza!" ”
"Don't worry, I'll help you get it!" Eliza smiled and agreed.
"I think there should be a little bit of initiative in the terms of the contract, not too passive, and in terms of power, I have to at least get the transfer rights of the first team, I don't want to wait until the start of the season and then slowly talk to Leao? Ben Hack! ”
Ye Qiu learned the lesson of Waters at this point, the latter just went to work in a hurry, the conditions were not negotiated, and he started directly, and when he woke up, the season had already begun, and then he would talk to Leao? Ben Haack started the war, which was very bad for Waters as the head coach.
"You don't need to worry about that!" Rick Link on the side nodded, "Bobby just said, Leo?" Ben Hack offered to give up his athletic power and simply take on the role of technical director, while helping the team watch De Tokmost, but the specific power would be transferred to the new manager. ”
"Oh?" Ye Qiu was a little surprised, could it be that this guy had changed sex?
"At the end of the day, this is also a wise move to protect himself, Ajax was so sluggish last season, Leao? Ben Hack has also been criticized by the media, and the fans' impression of him is not good, if he continues to do this in the new season, it will be discredited, and he will not be far from being purged. ”
Ye Qiu understood, as a famous coach in European football, Leao? Ben Hack's move may have given up some power, but it has been able to salvage some reputation, so it's not a bad thing for him.
"However, Ye Qiu, although you can get power, the current situation is very bad for you!" Rowland also reminded, "Glenshire, Brian? Laudrup, Dani? Carvalho, Hershey and others are clamoring to leave, and the first team has been panicking lately, with many players ostensibly expressing their loyalty to the team, but secretly contacting sellers, and if they can't keep them, the team is likely to fall apart! ”
After hearing this, Ye Qiu not only didn't get angry, but couldn't help nodding his head and said with a smile: "That's good, if I officially take charge of Ajax, the first decision I make is that I will let everyone who wants to leave the team, and even if there are many players who don't want to leave, I will sell him!" ”
Ye Qiu's words surprised Roland, and he thought that Ye Qiu was crazy and was about to persuade him, but Rick Link on the side took the lead.
"The chairman has decided to make drastic reforms and implement rejuvenation?" Listening to the tone, Rick Link was still a little excited.
Ye Qiu nodded, "If you don't promote youthfulness and continue to let this gang occupy the main position of Ajax, how can young people come out?" Van der Vaart: Is it possible that they will continue to stay in the second team? How can a club get out of the high wage burden? How can the club's finances improve? ”
Sometimes, it's a good thing that a player is always experienced, but it's also a bad thing.
Like Aaron? Winter, Ye Qiu was ready to find a chance to talk to him because his salary was very high.
This Chinese player who once played at Inter Milan is 33 years old this year, and his condition is okay, but in the end he is 33 years old, if he is willing to take a salary cut and is willing to stay in the team to bring newcomers, Ye Qiu welcomes him, but if he wants to continue to get a high salary and continue to control the main position, I'm sorry, Ye Qiu will sell him.
Because in Ye Qiu's opinion, 33-year-old Aaron? Winter's role on the court may not be much bigger than Sneijder and others, but the salary gap is very large, and Sneijder and others are young, and they will improve by a year when they play a year, but Aaron? Winter is a year and a year out.
In this way, the choice is very clear.
"Can I interject?" Eliza, who had never spoken, suddenly asked crisply.
Ye Qiu smiled and nodded.
"From the perspective of buying and selling transactions, as soon as you come to the stage, you will announce the sale, which will only give the buyer the opportunity to lower the price as much as possible, I think that the best way to sell is to transform the buyer's market into a seller's market, so as to maximize profits!" Eliza calmly pointed out the mistakes and omissions in Ye Qiu's planning.
"I've found that there are a lot of clubs that make a lot of low-level mistakes when they operate the transfer market, either buying high or selling low, or maybe even buying high and selling low at the same time, isn't this just throwing money into the sea?"
Ye Qiu agreed in his heart, Eliza's opinion was really insightful, at least there was indeed a very serious atmosphere in the football club.
"And what do you think?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile, he would never refuse to listen to other people's suggestions.
Of course, the premise is that this advice is good for yourself.
"This kind of thing has to rely on operation, you patronize me, I will help you draw up a plan, and I believe that in the Netherlands, there should be many teams who wish Ajax would become a player supermarket, which will lead to a serious weakening of strength, the key is still that sentence, rely on operation!" Eliza immediately became shrewd.
Ye Qiu thought about it for a while, he still had to talk to Van Praag and the head of the transfer department about this matter, and when the time came, it shouldn't be a big problem to let Eliza also attend this meeting.
"By the way, do you have any requirements for a salary?" Eliza thought of a new question.
"Salary?" Ye Qiu thought for a moment and shook his head, "There are no requirements." "He's mostly gaining experience right now.
Unexpectedly, Eliza shook her head when she heard this, "You, you're really stupid!" ”
"What's wrong?" Ye Qiu was strange.
"From a management point of view, in a way, the salary represents a person's status and how much they are valued, and if you go to the first team and continue to get the salary of the second team manager, what do you think people will think of you? Firefighting instructor, maybe you will leave after two or three days, who will listen to you then? ”
When Ye Qiu heard it, it seemed that this was really the case, he remembered that in his previous life, Mourinho coached every team, and he required that he must get a higher salary than all the players, Ye Qiu didn't feel anything at that time, and he thought that Mourinho was greedy for money, but now that Eliza said this, there is indeed a truth in this regard.
To some extent, today's football clubs are becoming more and more corporatized, and in a company, will there be a general manager whose salary is lower than that of a department manager? If so, then it must prove that the department manager is more important than the general manager, so the general manager has to manage the department manager on weekdays, can he manage it?
In other words, it doesn't matter how much money you have, what matters is status, what matters is deterrence.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of these things!" Eliza said with a smile with great marketing potential.
"I'm rooting for Eliza!" Rick Link nodded in response.
"Far from it, let's just talk about Waters, his salary is not as good as Leo? Ben Hack and Westerhoff, which led to a lot of people understanding in their hearts from the beginning, Leo? Ben Hack and Westerhoff were trying to hold Waters down, so from the very beginning, the problems and contradictions between the three were acute. ”
After a pause, Rick Link shook his head, "Of course, I'm not saying that you have to fight, but to get a salary that matches your status and status, not only for you to get back what you deserve, but also to get the recognition of others." ”
Both of them said so, and Ye Qiu had no choice but to nod, "Then I'll leave it to you, Eliza!" ”
"Don't worry!" Eliza confidently assured.
Ye Qiu looked at Huang Chu on the side, "By the way, Ah Chu, after I become the head coach, I will allocate funds to set up a sports research team, mainly in terms of physical fitness and physical fitness, and you will be in charge." ”
When Ye Qiu led the second team to play Eindhoven before, Huang Chu once reminded Ye Qiu that there might be problems with Eindhoven's physical fitness, and the result was really judged by her.
Later, Ye Qiu found an opportunity to ask Huang Chu how he got the news, Huang Chu said that he calculated it, and also told Ye Qiu a lot of related professional things, it turned out that she also had a certain amount of involvement in sports medicine in college, but due to professional and other problems, she was never able to conduct in-depth research.
The funds are not big, tens of thousands of dollars can be done, and there is not much manpower, just let Huang Chu help dig up a few people, and then say hello to Van Dud, and then transfer tens of thousands of dollars from the first team to add some equipment and instruments, then it will be done directly.
"Don't think I'm favoritism!" Ye Qiu didn't wait for Huang Chu to refuse, and directly reminded her, "I'm doing business!" ”
'A player's body is a treasure for the club and the most powerful weapon to beat the opposition on the pitch, so if we can put that system in place, it will be a huge help for the club.'
After Huang Chu listened to Ye Qiu's righteous and awe-inspiring words, she didn't insist on anything anymore, she could only agree, but in her heart, Ye Qiu was willing to do this, she should still hope to help her take charge of herself, but Ye Qiu didn't say it, she didn't say it, she was relieved.
After saying these things, Ye Qiu turned to look at Rick Link and Roland, "How is it?" Do you want to come to the first team? ”
The two of them glanced at each other, they and Ye Qiu had been in the second team for nearly a year, they knew each other well, and they won the Dutch Cup together, which can be said to have established a deep friendship, and it was indeed a very good choice to follow Ye Qiu to the first team.
"I'm a little reluctant to Detokmost!" Rick Link shook his head and sighed, after all, it was a place where he had been fighting.
Ye Qiu smiled, "It's simple, you are the assistant coach of the first team, and at the same time the head coach of the second team, and you are responsible for promoting our training methods and youth training concepts in Detokmost, and carrying out drastic reforms to Detokmost." ”
When Rick Link heard this, his heart felt like a fire, this was also a dream he had for a long time, where would he refuse?
However, in the first team, the coaching staff is understaffed, which is a problem, after all, there are only three of them, it is difficult to do everything, and you still have to find someone when the time comes.
As for who to find, Ye Qiu already had a general goal and candidate in his heart.
