Chapter 652: The Golden Mean
Entering May, the sky in London still has no idea of clearing, it is still gray, just like Tottenham Hotspur now.
The team's performance in the league is not bad, after all, Tottenham Hotspur is still very strong and still very dominant in the Premier League, first beating Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge to add to their title, and then beating West Bromwich Albion 4-0 at home in the 34th round of the Premier League.
Then in the 35th round of the Premier League, the team defeated Manchester City 1-0 away.
This feeling of one game a week, frankly speaking, not only the players of Tottenham Hotspur are not very accustomed to it, but Ye Qiu himself is also not used to it, because he has long been accustomed to the rhythm of being very busy in the second half of the season, and it has been the same for the past few seasons.
Now that I'm suddenly relaxed, I feel a little overwhelmed and don't know what to do.
So, this person is really a cheap bone!
Manchester United lost 1:3 to Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, and it seems that it is not ordinary to reverse the situation at home, but the weakness of Ferguson's right side is still very obvious.
The Champions League, this is the most tactical test of the world football field, which is recognized by the world, and even the World Cup, the European Cup and other major competitions have begun to lag behind the Champions League by a large margin in terms of tactical content, so if you want to achieve good results in the Champions League, the team's squad strength and tactics are indispensable.
However, none of this has much to do with Tottenham Hotspur, because Ye Qiu's most important thing now is not the game, after winning the Premier League title early, all his energy is focused on preparing for the next season.
At the same time, it is more important to further improve the team's training and youth training system.
Just as Ye Qiu was thinking about the window, there was a knock on the door from the office.
"Come in!" Ye Qiu turned around and walked back to his desk.
It was Mauro who opened the door and came in? Tasotti and Roland? Shepas, the two came to Ye Qiu's office at the same time.
"Are you looking for us?" As soon as Luo Fatzi walked in, he sat down directly in front of Ye Qiu, unceremoniously.
Mauro? Tasotti maintained his usual gentlemanly demeanor and politeness, and only slowly sat down after Luo Fat sat down, but if it was on the court, he would have become completely different.
"There's something I want to discuss with you!" Ye Qiu nodded and said, for his two assistants, he has nothing to hide, Roland and he have been an old partner for more than ten years, Mauro? Tasotti has been his assistant coach for five years and they have a very close relationship.
"I've decided, starting with the preparations for this summer, that you're all responsible, Roland, and you're assisting Mauro!" Ye Qiu spoke out about his decision, which was also the beginning of his further transfer of power.
To be honest, it is really not a good thing for a person to have too much prestige in a team, just like Ferguson, who has not found his suitable successor so far, so he has not dared to slack off in the slightest, and he still insists on the first line when he is older.
"What do you mean?" Mauro? Tasotti was a little confused.
Roland understood Ye Qiu's thoughts, and had been tested by Ye Qiu before, to see whether he wanted to continue to serve as an assistant coach in the first team, or to take charge of the youth team, or even to coach outside, and Luo Fatzi knew his own strength, and he would not do the brain-consuming and thankless job of the head coach.
According to Luo Fatzi's work standards, it is best for him to get the highest salary and not have to work.
"It means that most of the things in the first team in the future, you have the final say!" Luo Fatzi laughed on the side.
Mauro? Tasotti was a little surprised, and even flattered, after all, Tottenham Hotspur is now a big business, not to mention that the entire team is now valued at more than a billion pounds, even if it is Theobald and the first team, the value is extraordinary, Ye Qiu handed it over to him like this?
It's not that he didn't think that Ye Qiu would retire one day, but he didn't expect it to come so suddenly, and Ye Qiu was still so young now, so he would take a back seat?
"You will be responsible for the pre-season preparation for the new season, as well as the pre-match preparations and the daily training arrangements of the team, I will only tell you how we will play in the next game, and I need you to give me a detailed preparation plan for the summer team."
This is not a small transfer of power, Mauro? Tasotti was really flattered, and even let him participate in the transfer, but it is conceivable that Ye Qiu wants to cultivate him as his successor, which is to let him slowly become familiar with the situation of the first team, so that he can take over in the future.
Maybe it was Mauro? The confusion in Tasotti's eyes, Ye Qiu smiled, "Because I found that a person's energy is always limited, and now for me, the project of the research center is also very important, and it will divide my mind a lot, so, Mauro, I hope you can look at the team's problems more with the thinking and vision of a head coach in the future." ”
"I understand!" Mauro? Tasotti now understands everything.
"When the team fully takes over the new stadium and makes a steady transition, this position will be yours!" Ye Qiu said with a smile.
Mauro? Tasotti nodded solemnly, he knew very well what Ye Qiu valued him, the reason why he joined Tottenham Hotspur was to be impressed by Ye Qiu's tactical ideas and some concepts, so he was also eager to take over Tottenham Hotspur one day, because this team also has his brainchild.
Of course, perhaps this is more like a long-range futures contract in the eyes of many people, because Mauro? There is no shortage of teams interested in him at the moment, but the Italian will not see it that way, because he knows better than anyone Ye Qiu's mentality, as well as Ye Qiu's importance to Tottenham Hotspur, and his consistent employment criteria.
Ye Qiu has always flaunted the principle of preferring lack to abuse, he is a person with a strong perfectionism complex, but at the same time he is very realistic and rational, he is not Wenger or Van Gaal who is controlled by perfectionism, he will think about every link very seriously, thinking about the risks and consequences of doing so.
In his words, as long as he is about six or seven percent sure, he will take risks.
Van Gaal is the kind of person who is 50% sure of going for it, Wenger is the complete opposite, he is too cautious, he usually has to be about 90% of the way to do it, or the situation forces him to passively accept this kind of risk.
This has led to the different coaching styles of the three major coaches in the Premier League, Ferguson is more aggressive, more unreasonable, and even open-mouthed, but his understanding of football is outstanding, and his on-the-spot command and adaptability are not bad, but in the overall tactical framework and football philosophy, this is his weakness, but he can make up for this more by learning from opponents.
Arsene Wenger is composed, his ability to construct an overall tactical framework is excellent, his understanding of football is one of the best in the world, and his football philosophy is very advanced, but his weakness lies in his control of the team, his lack of on-the-spot adaptability, and sometimes too idealistic.
Ye Qiu is like a neutralization of the two head coaches, he is more modest, Ferguson belongs to the realists, Wenger belongs to the idealistic, and Ye Qiu is sometimes realistic, sometimes ideal, but in general, about four points of reality and six points of ideal, he is a more contradictory person.
After all these years, the coaching system has been cultivated, especially after reading the writings of so many famous masters, and the coaching and tactical experience of so many well-known head coaches, Ye Qiu's football literacy is also very high, the concept is also very advanced, and the vision is not to mention, building a tactical framework and understanding of football have their own uniqueness.
After all, in the past ten years, he has been reading the tactical experience of all the head coaches in the world almost every day, as well as their understanding of football, and his on-the-spot command and adaptability has always been good, so it can be regarded as relatively modest.
But moderation does not mean bad, on the contrary, Ye Qiu is very accomplished in almost all aspects, which is also Mauro? What Tassoti admires most about him, and in the past few years, Mauro? Tasotti also learned a lot of things from Ye Qiu, some of which he had never even thought of himself, and benefited a lot.
As for the future succession, because it was still early, Ye Qiu didn't say much, Mauro? Tasotti didn't talk much about it, and they quickly moved the conversation in another direction, which was the current state of the team.
'Cesc Fabregas has told me that he wants to return to Barcelona this summer, and I told him that there is no problem, but only if Barcelona make an offer that satisfies us, and if the two sides end up falling out, I don't even rule out letting him go to Real Madrid, or stay in the team, or even sit on the bench."
Ye Qiu talked with Fabregas in this office yesterday, what he is doing now is not to want Fabregas to cooperate with Barcelona to put pressure on Tottenham Hotspur, this will not benefit anyone in the end, if it really angers Ye Qiu, everyone will break up and see who is unlucky.
Of course, Ye Qiu has a little friendship with Fabregas, and Fabregas has always respected Ye Qiu, but now he is eager to return to Barcelona, so the relationship is a little tense, but the two of them are still very restrained in their words, and Ye Qiu's words are only conveyed through the meaning, and they are not directly broken.
"I'm tired of this tangled transfer war, I've told Peter? Kenyon, if Barcelona calls again and tells them that in a word, give money and take people away, if you don't give money, you will give me as much fucking away as you want, don't fucking babble all day long, just like a fly! ”
Ye Qiu is obviously tired of the recent hype in the Spanish media and some European media, and he did have the idea of selling Cesc Fabregas, because the Spanish player's heart is no longer in Tottenham Hotspur, since he has changed his mind, then break up, Ye Qiu is also very simple in this regard.
Not only that, all the players who want to leave the team can go, this time Ye Qiu is determined to have major surgery!
As Sheehan? Ingle said that Ye Qiu's temper is like this, and regarding the transfer of Fabregas, Ye Qiu does not need to do anything at all, he just needs to relax the hand that curbs Fabregas's transfer thoughts a little, and his thoughts about transferring began to sprout quickly.
The same goes for the transfers of other players!
But if you want to sell and want to sell at a good price, chattering like Russell, bargaining all day long, wanting to buy but can't afford the price, having no money to sell but staying in front of your store all day long to obstruct your business, it's just a bastard.
"After sending Cesc Fabregas away, how did the midfield be configured?" Mauro? Tasotti is very concerned about this, because now that he is in charge of summer preparations, he must clearly know what Ye Qiu thinks.
"As we said before, at the same time I'm going to move the organization back and back to the midfield!" Ye Qiu said.
"You mean, bring in an organization backman?" Mauro? Tasotti is a little bit clear.
Ye Qiu smiled and nodded, "Do you really think that I let Ramsey play the back of the organization and put Phil before?" Jones when Gattuso used, is it a whim? 'Aaron Ramsey has played as a single midfielder in the league and in the Champions League, especially after the game against Manchester United, and Phil? Jones is also the same flying general as ever, running all over the field, with the momentum of Gattuso.
This is simply to learn the Christmas tree tactics of AC Milan during the Ancelotti period, but the difference is that Ancelotti's tactics were relatively slow at that time, and the emphasis on ball control is consistent with Ye Qiu's philosophy, but Ye Qiu pays more attention to effective ball control, and Ye Qiu emphasizes a fast-paced touch of the ball, high-intensity pressing, rather than slow ball control and pulling.
So strictly speaking, this is the Premier League of Ancelotti's original set of four tens.
"To be on the safe side, we still need reinforcements in the midfield, and at the same time we need to strengthen the fitness and physical training of the players at the beginning of the season, because we will have more tactical runs!" Ye Qiu said.
Is this what he did before with Bobby? Rams and Mauro? Tasotti talked about it during the exchange that if you want to make your attack faster and more impactful while maintaining the current advantage of technique, ball control, rhythm and initiative, you have to stretch the opponent's position as far as possible.
Ye Qiu had read about the football philosophy of Italian head coach Sacchi in the store of the coaching training system before, and many things about this Italian coach were very much in line with Ye Qiu's appetite, but he was also absorbing the essence of Cruyff's thoughts.
According to the views of many people in Ye Qiu's previous life, they think that Dortmund's Klopp's football concept is very similar to Sacchi, so according to Ye Qiu's current thinking, this should be a combination of Barcelona and Dortmund's tactics, or Dortmund's more delicate passing and receiving of the ball and smarter running.
This involves an important idea, that is, as the tactics become more and more meticulous, the future tactical ideas are destined to be better, more meticulous and more penetrating and impactful tactics, which must be based on more running, so physical fitness will become more and more important for professional players.
If you don't believe me, you can look at football tactics in the 90s, the beginning of the century and around 2010, and you will find that in fact, the distance and fitness of the players are constantly climbing, which is the most powerful proof of this.
To put it more simply, the faster your overall speed is, the longer your players must have traveled, otherwise how would you survive 90 minutes?

In Ye Qiu with Mauro? Tasotti and Roland? After Shepas reached a consensus, the last three games of the Premier League were also in suspense, with Tottenham Hotspur drawing 1-1 with Blackpool, Liverpool 2-0 away and Birmingham City 3-0 at home, ending the 10/11 Premier League season.
The league trophy was also brought to White Hart Lane in the final round, and after the game, the FA and Premier League, as well as sponsors, presented Tottenham Hotspur with the trophy for the third consecutive season.
Three consecutive championships, this undoubtedly allowed Tottenham Hotspur to reach the pinnacle of the history of the Premier League, because in the more than 100 years of English football history, there are many teams that have won three consecutive championships, but the team that has won four consecutive championships has never been, even in the past League One, even Liverpool, Aston Villa and other teams at their peak, have never had such a feat.
Entering the new season, Manchester United has twice hit four consecutive championships without success, Chelsea also tried to hit four consecutive championships, and finally ended in a miserable defeat, and it was also defeated at the feet of Tottenham Hotspur, therefore, with Tottenham Hotspur's three consecutive championships, many fans began to speculate whether Tottenham Hotspur can repeat the glory of the past three seasons next season?
In the second half of the season, Tottenham Hotspur has clearly shown a decline, and if it does not perform in the transfer market this summer, Tottenham Hotspur may really repeat the curse of three consecutive titles, and the next season will end empty-handed and dismal.
While Tottenham Hotspur won the title, the top four places in the Premier League were also freshly released in a fierce round of competition.
Although Liverpool lost to Tottenham Hotspur at home in the penultimate round, the Reds relied on the advantages they had accumulated before to establish the top four positions in the league early, but they were pressed back by Manchester City and fell to fourth place in the league.
As a result, the top four in the Premier League are clear with Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool, followed by Arsenal, Chelsea, West Ham United and Newcastle, followed by the likes of Everton, Fulham and Aston Villa.
Judging from the performance of the Premier League this season, all teams are strong, especially the local tycoons led by Manchester City, West Ham United and Newcastle, which makes people see the subversion of the Premier League pattern, and there are even many people who speculate that if several teams in the Premier League do not make adjustments this summer, the results of next season will be even more dismal.
Because Liverpool, Manchester City, West Ham United, Newcastle and other teams have shouted the slogan of bringing in further reinforcements in the summer transfer, which also makes the league just over, but everyone is already full of expectations for the new season of the Premier League.
After all, a new season will always bring new suspense and new excitement! Can Nam Hotspur repeat the glory of the past three seasons?
