Chapter 765: Difficult Young Man
Knock-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J-1J
The sound of knocking on the door made Ye Qiu, who was sitting in front of the computer and chatting QQ with a pair of children in Xiamen, raise his head and shouted, "Please come in", and then made a grimace at his daughter and son in the computer camera, and turned it off after saying goodbye.
Coming in was Phil Jones, a 20-year-old England youngster who has been eye-catching for some time.
"Phil, sit" Ye Qiu pointed to the chair opposite his desk and said with a smile.
"Thank you, head" Phil Jones came over after closing the door, pulled out the chair in front of the desk and sat down, but he didn't dare to lean back like Ye Qiu, he looked a little restrained, because he didn't know what Ye Qiu meant by looking for him.
Just after the morning training session, Roland O Shepas announced the punishment of Pogba by the coaching staff, and the French teenager was sentenced to a two-game internal ban by the coaching staff because of his absence from the morning training session, and after this punishment came out, Ye Qiu made an appointment to meet Phil Jones in the afternoon, which made the English a little worried.
Is it because of the League Cup?
"Phil, how are you feeling lately?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile, there was no sign of settling accounts after the autumn at all.
"Good, head, I've played in a couple of games in a row and I think it's been a big takeaway" Phil Jones smiled a little forcefully, but his tone was sincere, as he scored a brace after coming off the bench against Stoke City.
Sometimes when he thinks about it, he can't believe it, he can't understand why he scored like that.
It was as if it wasn't himself going to score, but the ball bounced into the goal on its own, and all in all, he still didn't know exactly why he was able to score, and Mauro Tasotti told him that when he did, it was a testament to a leap in his career.
Some people can't understand it all their lives, and they have been playing football all their lives, good and bad, but some people are born to understand, so they look very stable, very mature, and their careers are steadily climbing uphill, and they have made significant progress.
"It's very important for a young player to play consistently, even if it's as a substitute, and to be honest, I'm very happy with your performance in recent times, not because of your brace, but because I think you've really done well on the pitch, both offensively and defensively"
After hearing this, Phil Jones let go and laughed for the first time, because he knew that Ye Qiu was serious when he said this, "Thank you, head"
I still remember that when Phil Jones first came to Tottenham Hotspur, his skills were not good, and his passing and receiving skills were not strong, and he seemed to be brave at the time, but he was not delicate enough, a bit like flying violently, running around and bumping, sometimes messing up his team's position is a mess, every time I think about it, Phil Jones feels embarrassed.
But his training is often hard, he knows that he can't meet the requirements of Tottenham Hotspur except for the basics, so he practiced, practiced crazy, and made up his mind to practice, as a result, his skills have now increased, his ability to touch the ball has increased, and even his ability to read the game on the pitch and integrate into the team's offensive and defensive awareness have also increased.
Originally, he was more inclined to play central defender, but Ye Qiu arranged him in the midfield, and even the midfielder did not play the midfield, but played the midfielder, Phil Jones himself had a conflict about this, why did he think he played the midfielder?
But it turned out that Ye Qiu and the coaching staff were right about his positioning and choice at the beginning.
Now he is becoming more and more proficient in central midfield, not only in terms of skill and awareness, but more importantly, he is beginning to learn how to play, how to position himself on the pitch, how to cooperate and respond to his teammates, which makes him better and better in midfield.
In what Ye Qiu told him back then, as long as he plays in the center midfield, he can retreat to the back in the future, or even to the center back, he can be at ease, but if he can't play in the center midfield, then even if he is fixed in the center back position, he is also a reckless man.
Looking back now, Phil Jones has to admit that Ye Qiu was right, he shaped himself well, and helped him complete his career plan, and kept making progress.
"Phil, you know, the team has notified your agent, and we are ready to talk to you about a contract extension"
Phil Jones nodded, "I heard the agent say yesterday, head, please rest assured, I hope to be able to stay on the team"
"Very well, this is also the purpose of my talk to you today, I hope you can understand my thoughts and requirements for you"
Phil Jones nodded, indicating that he was listening.
"You know what? The reason why I chose you was because I liked your strong plasticity, and you had a temperament that belonged to the tenacious and unyielding temperament of an English player, and I was thinking that technique, passing, and awareness can all be cultivated, but a person's character is difficult, so I decided to introduce you."
Tottenham Hotspur didn't spend much to get Phil Jones back then, but now, the England international is already the hottest new star in England, with his outstanding performance at Tottenham Hotspur, at least 20 million euros is not to run, but Tottenham Hotspur obviously has no intention of selling.
Not only Phil Jones, but many young players in the team, Ye Qiu, do not plan to move, because this is a batch of treasures he left to Mauro Tasotti and his successors, as long as there are these young players, Tottenham Hotspur will not be able to fall the banner, at least in the next ten years, relying on this group of people, Tottenham Hotspur can still sweep Europa.
"I'm very happy to see you get to where you are today," Ye Qiu smiled and affirmed Phil Jones' efforts and progress.
Phil Jones couldn't stop nodding, "I'm also very grateful to the head, thanks to the team." ”
Ye Qiu smiled, got up from the office chair, and walked out of the desk area, "This time I talked to the management, we plan to offer you a weekly salary of 50,000 pounds, signed for five years, and there will be some clauses in it to ensure that when you play a greater role in the team in the future, the team will give you enough promotion in terms of salary and bonuses." ”
The renewal of the contract was initiated by Tottenham Hotspur, otherwise Phil Jones' contract would be longer, and now Phil Jones' weekly salary is only 25,000 pounds, which has risen to 50,000 pounds all of a sudden, which is equivalent to doubling, which almost proves that Tottenham Hotspur attaches importance to and affirms him.
Of course, if you want to compare with Messi's weekly salary of 150,000 pounds, Phil Jones is still too far behind, but the problem is that only Messi has reached 150,000 pounds in the whole team, and Ribery only has a weekly salary of 145,000 pounds.
Tottenham Hotspur's salary structure is actually very clearly divided, everyone can clearly know their position, and once you show that you are good, or you continue to play well for a period of time, the team will consider giving you a salary structure increase, as if you were promoted.
The highest salary is undoubtedly Messi and Ribery, the two superstars, they are the number one stars in the team, the highest salary, and the highest business income, with an annual income of at least 30 million euros.
The second tier of income is mainly the team's core main players, such as Thiago Silva, Pirlo, Cavani, Cech and others, whose salaries are around 100,000 pounds a week, but they also have quite good commercial income every year, so the overall income level is also considered high-income among professional players.
The third tier is a weekly salary from 50,000 pounds to 90,000 pounds, which currently includes Ramsey, Vidal, Kompany, Kyle Walker, Marcelo, Hazard and Neymar, but if Ramsey, Vidal, Kompany and others renew their contracts, it is estimated that they will directly enter the second tier of income.
The fourth tier is some academy players and young rookies who have just joined the team, and the income is generally between 10,000 and 50,000 pounds, this part of the players basically has a firm foothold in the first team, but the salary is relatively low, and the commercial income is also there, but it is not high, on the contrary, if they are willing to work hard, the team is excellent, and the bonus will be more generous.
Of course, there is also a bracket of some young players in the youth team and the reserve team, whose salaries are basically under 10,000 pounds, and the vast majority of hopefuls earn around 1,000 pounds a week.
Phil Jones originally belonged to the fourth gear, but now he has been promoted to the third pot, and once he continues to continue his current excellent performance and make greater contributions to the team, then in the next two or three years, if he renews his contract, it will basically be either the third tier of the maximum salary, or the second gear, which can be expected.
"Thank you, head," Phil Jones nodded at Ye Qiu in thanks.
Ye Qiu smiled, he happened to walk to Phil Jones's side, and the Englishman wanted to stand up, but he signaled not to.
"Actually, I came to you today for another thing, and that is that I want you to be able to play more and better roles in the locker room, do you know what I mean?"
The Tottenham Hotspur dressing room managed by Ye Qiu has a characteristic, that is, everyone is equal, even the young players who have just been promoted from the youth team are equal to the status of superstars, no one is inferior to anyone, and no one is more noble than others.
The result of equality for all is that no player in the dressing room is privileged.
But there are as many as 25 people in the first team, and if you add the players who play for the first team, it often reaches about 30 people, these people come from all over the world, have different religious beliefs, different living habits, different educational backgrounds, different life goals, and they live and play in the dressing room where everyone is equal, and it is inevitable that some problems will arise.
This requires another type of player, and that is the lubricant in the dressing room.
For example, Francois Franco's extroverted personality makes him very popular in the dressing room, while Marcelo, Phil Jones and others are also very outgoing, which allows them to have more say in the dressing room, for example, Ribery can decide what exactly the team bus should sing, while the others always obey.
It's a result of a long and natural evolution, just like every time Ribery gets on the bus, he shouts, "What song do you want to listen to today?" most people will say, you decide, and then it's Ribery's business.
But Ribery has no privileges in the dressing room other than such a power.
Ye Qiu noticed a very interesting phenomenon, Phil Jones is very popular in the circle of young players, which also has a certain relationship with Phil Jones's character, and he is also a local player, so Ye Qiu certainly hopes that he will play more and greater roles.
"I understand, thank you, head" Phil Jones knew, this was also Ye Qiu's reliance and cultivation on him.
You must know that the people who usually play a huge role in the locker room are often the captains of the team, for example, Ribery is one of the vice captains of the team, this is a very natural concept, Ye Qiu let everyone vote, he was elected, no one was surprised, and it was a surprise if he was not elected.
Therefore, Ye Qiu encouraged him so much, just to focus on cultivating him.
"In the future, when you deal with the relationship between you and your teammates in the locker room, you should look at the problem with a higher vision, each teammate has his own different past, different experiences, different beliefs, different personalities, you need to make yourself more tolerant, you must know how to respect and forgive."
Holding grudges is a taboo for an excellent manager, the reason is very simple, holding a grudge will make you have a preset position, then there will be some bias when you look at the problem, and it will be difficult to be fair and just when dealing with the problem, which is a taboo for excellent managers.
"We have a lot of management books in the library, go and read more, it's helpful," Ye Qiu patted Phil Jones on the shoulder, smiled and encouraged, he has always been very active in encouraging his players and club staff to further education and self-improvement.
"I see, thank you," Phil Jones thanked again.
Ye Qiu smiled, "Then it's nothing, you go and rest"
"Okay" Phil Jones stood up, turned and left.
Sent Phil Jones away, but Ye Qiu remembered another player, Pogba, this kid has a difficult personality, this time he gave him two bans, and I don't know if he can accept it?
But the question is, if Pogba is absent from the team's training sessions and the coaching staff doesn't give him a little color, doesn't that amount to giving him a privilege? Who will serve in the locker room that day?
"Young people now......" Ye Qiu remembered Sandro, this Brazilian is also difficult to do, his favorite thing is to play the guitar, if he has nothing to do, he will take a guitar and play it blindly over there, if you play it well, it doesn't matter, but the problem is that you play too badly, and you still play, doesn't this cost human life?
There are so many people in the team, each of them has their own different personalities and preferences, and as a head coach, in fact, a large part of the energy is invested in the management of the locker room.
The annual Christmas carnival is held in Tottenham.
With the renovation of Stratford Stadium progressing smoothly, Tottenham Hotspur will move south to central London in six months, and White Hart Lane will be converted into a track and field stadium at that time, Tottenham Hotspur and the City of London have not been able to reach an agreement on the lease and renovation of White Hart Lane.
But the Christmas carnival will remain in Tottenham, an event that has been held for many years and has already had an impact on fans around the world, and is currently included in the plans of Northumberland County Council and Haringey District Council, and will be supported in the future.
With the participation of more and more fans and tourists, as more and more sponsors pay attention to and join, the influence of the Christmas carnival is also increasing, even if Tottenham Hotspur goes south to the center of London in the future, this carnival will still be named Tottenham Hotspur, and the team will continue to play the role of manager and organizer.
Tottenham Hotspur have played one game less than the rest of the English team due to their participation in the Club World Cup this season, and so far they have played 17 games, drawn 15 and drawn 2, and have 47 points, ranking at the top of the English table.
The second-placed team is Rafael Benitez's Liverpool, with 18 games, 15 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, with 46 points, one point behind Tottenham Hotspur, while Alex Ferguson's Manchester United has 43 points, Manchester City and Chelsea are both 39 points, while Southampton, Newcastle and West Ham United are all 30 points.
After participating in the Christmas carnival, the next day, Tottenham Hotspur challenged the black cat Sunderland away, and as a result, Tottenham Hotspur stunned everyone in this game, beating Sunderland 1 away, Messi scored a hat trick, and there were two exquisite assists, Tottenham Hotspur was very eye-catching.
This came as a shock to everyone, because after the big win over Stoke City in the last game, the big win over Sunderland in this round was full of surprise, especially the fifteen goals scored in two rounds, which was amazing.
But just three days later, Tottenham Hotspur returned to home to welcome Reading, the relegation favorite team currently ranked second to last in England, although Tottenham Hotspur rotated, but still won 1 at home to Reading, Drogba played, and had three assists, scored a hat trick of assists, Reading's entire defense had no way to deal with him.
Messi made a pass and a shot, Hazzard scored twice, Vidal scored in two consecutive rounds, and Ramsey also scored a goal.
Twenty goals scored and two goals conceded in three league games, everyone was surprised to see that Tottenham Hotspur's gun barrel was hot, and even many people took the bench, bought peanuts, and waited to see how Lambert's Aston Villa hit Tottenham Hotspur's still smoking gun, you know, this team eliminated Tottenham Hotspur in the League Cup.
In Ye Qiu's words, revenge must be avenged, and everyone firmly believes that as long as Tottenham Hotspur swings well in this game, it is not a big problem to lose Aston Villa away.
However, it was somewhat surprising that after half-time, Tottenham Hotspur dominated the game and won possession, but never managed to find the back of the net for Aston Villa.
Is it true that Tottenham Hotspur's goalscoring form has been depleted in the first three rounds, as Lambert said?
