Although Ye Qiu said that Tottenham Hotspur would help Manchester United get three points in the final round, Ferguson did not seem to appreciate it at all, and sent Ye Qiu's team out of the FA Cup at Old Trafford.

For such a result, Ye Qiu has actually been mentally prepared, and even believes that everyone has enough psychological preparation, because it is really unlikely that Tottenham Hotspur wants to lose Manchester United at Old Trafford, and Tottenham Hotspur's main lineup has played two games in a row in the past week, so Ye Qiu has a lot of substitutes on the field to rotate.

Because both legs of the FA Cup were played with a large number of substitutes, even if Tottenham Hotspur failed to win in the end, it still won universal praise from the media, after all, Manchester United played with a full squad, especially in the second leg, just missing a Giggs.

The game started at night, and after the team returned to London from Manchester, it was already midnight, and they went back to rest, and they didn't have to report to the team the next day, they just packed up their things and went back to their national team to report, and some players who were not selected for the national team could get a day off.

The elimination of the FA Cup did not hit Ye Qiu at all, and it did not even have much impact on Tottenham Hotspur, although Ye Qiu did not say it, and everyone did not ask, but in fact, everyone knew that Ye Qiu should start to appropriately reduce the pressure of the team's game.

With the current overall strength of Tottenham Hotspur, it is far from the point of insisting on multi-front operations, especially at the current stage of this sprint, ensuring that the league is more important than anything else, so Ye Qiu gave up the FA Cup, and even he was thinking that if necessary, he would even give up the League Cup.

The current UEFA Cup has declined, and it is not as influential as when he led Ajax to win the championship, whether it is from the championship prize money or from the sensation it causes, it is obviously not enough to ⊥ Tottenham Hotspur to invest everything to compete for and ensure the Champions League qualification next season, which is Ye Qiu's biggest goal this season.

He has to keep the current momentum of the team to have enough leverage to keep his players.

Now that group of giant teams are all staring outside like wolves, salivating at this group of players in Ye Qiu's team, Van Nistelrooy, Ribery, Messi, Fabregas, Mascherano, Alves These players are all hot, and they are not lacking the attention of giant teams, only by entering the Champions League, can they be qualified to keep them.

In Ye Qiu's previous life, even if it was a giant like Arsenal, his results did not rise but fell for many years, and the players in the team fell apart one by one? Although there are Arsenal's own factors in this, if the player wants to leave, is there no consideration in terms of performance? Isn't it because they don't see a future at Arsenal?

A player's career is neither long nor short, and who wouldn't want to leave a brilliant mark in their short career? And if you want all the fans to remember you, then you have only one way to make yourself perform on the broadest stage, and that is undoubtedly to go to the giants, because all the fans and the media only remember the giants

Rare leisure, Ye Qiu was at home all morning, accompanying his wife who had just been discharged from the hospital, as for the two children, Ye Qiu's parents and father-in-law and mother-in-law were there, and there was really nothing to do with the two of them.

After eating lunch, Ye Qiu took a beautiful nap before driving to Hertfordshire.

The distance and speed from Totridge to Theorebald training base is faster than going north from London, because the traffic here is very convenient and the traffic is not very large, so there is basically no need to worry about congestion.

If you look at the Theobold training base from mid-air, it looks like a small island with a slightly rectangular point, because the river channel has been widened, both banks have been reinforced, and the dense forests along the coast have been left when it was built, so this training base is isolated from the outside world on all sides, and only the main gate on the north side can enter and exit.

The gate of the training base is concave, and there is a green area outside, planted with green turf and big trees, but because it is transplanted, these are not visible at present, at least until a year or two later, these have grown, and this place will become beautiful.

Facing the gate, on the right side is the security building, two floors, downstairs is the duty room and office, upstairs is the dormitory, the club has hired a professional security team to be responsible for the security of the entire training base and 24-hour patrol work, to ensure that it will not be affected and disturbed by the outside world.

From the gate, one of the obvious features of the entire training base is that there is no wall in sight, because it is all covered by greenery, and at a glance, you can only see the rows of trees planted inside and the garden outside.

Even if the team has not officially settled in now, the security guards still check every car that enters and exits, and even Ye Qiu's car was stopped and confirmed that it was Ye Qiu himself before he was released.

The area of the Theobold training base is very large, the road is all made of environmentally friendly asphalt pavement, after the gate comes in, both sides of the road are surrounded by green trees, and the ground is also covered with turf, without the slightest dust, but it is also the same as the green area outside the gate, trees and flowers are transplanted, and the effect is not visible for the time being, and it has to wait for a while, but the whole environment can already be felt.

Coming in, there is a large open space on the east side of the road, which will be built as a home stadium for the youth team, which will be equipped with a grandstand that can accommodate nearly 10,000 people, and the stadium will also provide the same drainage and geothermal system as the first team, and the grandstand will also be equipped with a roof for the fans.

To the west of the road is a purpose-built, two-storey press building with ten separate interview rooms and a press conference hall with more than 100 seats to accommodate press and fan requests for Tottenham Hotspur.

Further inside, there is the central public garden area where the lake in the middle of the Theobald training base is located, which is also the area that all fans and media will appreciate the most after the Tottenham Hotspur released the renderings, which will become a public area for all first-team and youth team players to rest, and the road will also be divided from the public garden to the east and west.

To the east is to Tottenham Hotspur's academy camp, where all the youth and second team players are training, not only will there be 15 professional training grounds, all equipped with automatic systems such as geothermal heating, drainage and automatic sprinkler, but also will build a three-storey comprehensive training building for all Tottenham Hotspur academy players.

Not only that, Ye Qiu is currently co-sponsoring with Premier League managers such as Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, hoping to persuade the FA to remove restrictions on the selection of youth players, such as allowing Premier League teams to expand the selection area of youth teams, so that they can choose from all over England, and let the most talented young players come to the best youth camps for training

As a result, Tottenham Hotspur's training complex will be equipped with player dormitories.

When the training base is completed, most of the jobs here will give priority to hiring Tottenham Hotspur fans to work, because Ye Qiu hopes that in this way, in the shortest possible time, create a strong club atmosphere in the training base and cultivate a club culture as soon as possible.

To the west of the public garden area is the first-team training area, where there is a separate three-storey training building for the first team, which, like the youth team's training building, is also equipped with state-of-the-art gymnasium, indoor swimming pool, sauna, massage room, restaurant, recreation room and more.

Moreover, the entire training building is dedicated to the players' dormitories to the standard of a five-star hotel, so once occupied, the team will not stay in a hotel the night before all future home games of Tottenham Hotspur, but in the Theorebold training ground, because this is the best hotel.

If that's all there is to it, Tottenham Hotspur's Theobald training base doesn't cost so much money at all, and it doesn't deserve such high expectations and evaluations from the outside world, because it's not only well-equipped, but it's also very advanced, and many of them are even being used for the first time in football.

For example, the indoor swimming pool, the indoor swimming pool of the training building can not only adjust the depth, but also cold, hot, room temperature and jacuzzi, and even Tottenham Hotspur specially purchased some special training swimsuits from the United States to help players, especially some injured players, in the pool for recovery training

This hot and cold pool training promotes injury recovery and fatigue relief, and has been used well in some sports, but it is the first time it has been used in football.

In addition, one of the standard training grounds in the first team training area is surrounded by a series of ultra-high-speed high-definition cameras, the function of these cameras is that when the players are training in this training ground, these cameras can shoot every movement of the players in every position on the field from any angle, without dead ends, even the slightest can be filmed, and even the moment the player shoots the goal, the moment the heel touches the ball.

To this end, Ye Qiu specially compiled a new training system from people, specially used to analyze and study these, and Tottenham Hotspur also cooperated with Adidas to add chips to players' training shoes to record and collect players' heartbeat, pace cadence, and a series of data in training, and directly transmitted from the chip on the sole of the shoe to the computer of the research center for direct analysis.

Therefore, next to the training building of the first team, there is a single-storey research center, which is the heart of the Tottenham Hotspur Training Center, which is specially used to analyze the team's training, as well as all aspects of the opponent's data and intelligence in each game, and submit it to the coaching staff as a reference for the team's preparation.

In addition, the team's research center has other high-tech facilities and training methods, many of which are derived from Tottenham Hotspur's reference to other training bases or training methods in other sports fields throughout the world.

However, Ye Qiu's most important thing is the circular building next to the research center, because it has a training facility that is unique to Tottenham Hotspur, and it can even be said that football and other fields have never been available before.

Walking into this circular building, you can see that the ground is paved with soft turf, and in the middle of the turf is a circle with a radius of one meter, and with the center of this circle, the whole site is a circle with a radius of 11 meters, surrounded by a wall composed of wall panels.

This is actually an idea that Ye Qiu got from the high-tech training room in Dortmund in his previous life, he placed a total of sixteen football pitching machines on this circular wall, at different angles and different heights, the principle is the same as that of table tennis and baseball pitching machines, but the volume has become a football.

The principle of the entire training room is similar to that of Dortmund, but Ye Qiu has made appropriate improvements.

For example, the radius of the central circle is one meter, in which the player receives the ball from all directions, and when the pitching machine is about to serve, the wall plate where the bowling machine is located will immediately turn white, which is the color of Tottenham Hotspur's jersey, and when the ball is served, the horn on this wall panel will emit a pre-set sound to remind the player that the ball is coming.

After the player receives the ball, soon, another wall panel in the room will be lit up, still white, and there will also be a sound to remind the player to pass the ball, and the player must pass the ball into this wall in the shortest possible time.

Not only that, if the player receives the ball from the pitcher, but the direction of the pass is behind him, then the training room will give the player a little time to adjust by default, such as asking you to stop the ball and turn around and play again, but if it is in some directions where you can kick the ball out, the time will be shorter, this is to simulate the scene of the game to the greatest extent.

In addition, the speed of the ball thrown by the pitching machine, the rotation intensity, etc., can be manually adjusted and preset, and after the player enters the training room, all the training process does not need to be manually operated, all are directly controlled by the computer, and then the computer will record the data, and transmit it to the host of the analysis center for automatic analysis.

High-definition cameras are also installed around the entire training room to film the players' every move when they train here, and even some mistakes will be filmed directly, and then the analysis team will give a report, and the coaching staff will guide the players according to this report, such as the details of some passing skills, or some details of stopping skills.

Of course, as a football head coach, Ye Qiu is not good at how to build such a training room, he can only provide some specific concepts and ideas, or give some professional advice, and he is all in charge of the specific problems to Andy Hopper, a professor of electronic and mechanical engineering at Cambridge.

Andy Hopper is an Englishman and a Tottenham Hotspur fan, so when Ye Qiu invited him to join this plan, he agreed without much thought, and soon used his spare time to organize a professional research team to study and discuss Ye Qiu's ideas.

In fact, Ye Qiu's idea is not complicated, many things can be easily realized, such as pitching machines, such as wall panel color control, such as ball speed rotation, etc., these can be easily controlled, so the whole project is not difficult for those of them who are proficient in electronic and mechanical engineering.

And Ye Qiu is also willing to spend money, in the past less than a year, he has invested nearly two million euros in their project, and even promised that if they have any relevant research in the future, Ye Qiu is willing to invest and support their research and development.

When Ye Qiu arrived, the white-haired Professor Andy Hopper was directing the students to conduct the test, and the whole training room was not very difficult, and the most troublesome thing was the run-in test, as well as the sound.

What Ye Qiu wants is to simulate the game to the greatest extent, so the players will be trained after entering this room, and the sound of the game will also be simulated in the room, which is the kind of sound that the players are deep on the court and swept from all directions, how to create such a realistic effect and ensure that there will be no echo, and at the same time, it is a bit difficult to make the shouts made when serving and receiving the ball on the wall panel not be covered by the sound that fills the entire training room, and can reach the ears of the players.

"How?" Ye Qiu couldn't help but laugh when he saw a graduate student from Cambridge in the training room who was being tortured by the ball throwing machine and was sweating profusely and miserable, thinking in his heart, this guy shouldn't usually exercise much, right?

"It's not a big problem, but there are still some details that need to be improved" Andy Hopper is a typical academic school, and excellence is the label of people like them, and Ye Qiu is also very relieved to hand over this project to them because of this.

Not only that, but if the project is perfected, he is also going to build a similar training room on the side of the youth academy for the training of youth team players, and he has successfully applied for a series of patents, and this thing can also make money in the future.

The most important thing in the whole training room is this idea, as well as the run-in and testing after completion, the specific research and construction are not very difficult, so it should be used in time for Tottenham Hotspur to enter the Theobald training base next season, and then Professor Andy Hopper and his party will stay in the training base for further refinement and improvement.

"Oh, I forgot to congratulate you, you won the League Cup" Andy Hopper suddenly thought of this, and shook hands with Ye Qiu with a smile, he had staggered with Ye Qiu for a while in the past, sometimes he came, Ye Qiu was not there, Ye Qiu came, he was not there.

For this belated congratulations, Ye Qiu said thank you, Andy Hopper was born in London, grew up in Tottenham since he was a child, and now moved to Cambridge, but he is indeed a die-hard fan of Tottenham Hotspur, but because of work and research, he can't catch up on every game.

Like Andy Hopper, I believe that there are many people who can't come to Tottenham Hotspur's White Hart Lane stadium because of work, family, or other reasons, but their love and attention to this club will not be lost in their bones.

"Mr. Ye Qiu, we have to continue to work hard, we are going to enter the top four this year" Andy Hubber encouraged Ye Qiu with a smile.

Ye Qiu smiled, "It's done, I'll give you a season ticket for the next season each"

The students in the training room suddenly jumped with joy.

According to the current season ticket price of Tottenham Hotspur, it is nearly 1,000 pounds, and they have a total of more than a dozen of them, including Andy Hubber, and they have given away nearly 10,000 pounds when they are full of Ye Qiu's gift, which is indeed heroic enough.

"Okay, you guys continue to be busy, I still have some things, let's go first" Ye Qiu still has something to do in the training base.

After saying goodbye to Andy Hopper and others, Ye Qiu went around again, at present, the first-team training area of the Theobold training base has been basically completed, and the main buildings such as the training building and the stadium of the youth training camp have also been capped and completed, followed by greening and decoration, it is expected that it should be basically completed by UR year, and by 09 years, the entire Theobold training base will be considered to be completed.

After Ye Qiu made a tour of the training base, he drove away from Theobold, and turned around to Ziegwell after heading south, this training base will move out of here in a few months, and then it will become a training ground for the youth team, and then another year, the youth team will all move over, and all of them will be sold here.

However, Siegwell is located in the suburbs, so the land is not worth much, but it is better than nothing.

Ye Qiu returned to Siegwell's training base, because the team stopped training, so he had expected that there would be no one here, but what he didn't expect was that when he was about to go to the upstairs office, he saw that there were still people in the training ground.
