The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 701 I must want these two champions!
Sometimes, some head coaches are very worried that the players will fall into the vortex of pressure and cannot extricate themselves.

Ye Qiu has a different view and experience on this. He feels that everyone should have pressure, and the players should also have pressure. This pressure is not only from the fans, but also from the team and the head coach, and also from the people around them. teammates and the players themselves.

You have to look at things like pressure. It also has two sides. You may only see its bad side and ignore its good side. That is, under pressure, it may have a spur and incentive effect on players. .

Ye Qiu shouted to win the triple championship, in fact, he wanted to put pressure on all the players and tell them that this is my goal for this season. As for whether this goal can be achieved, Ye Qiu is not a god, he can't predict the foresight, but It's an attitude.

In many cases, the head coach has to know the emotional and psychological quality of the players. When they want to relax, you have to put some pressure on them, urge them to be vigilant and vigilant, and let them have goals to strive for. When they feel nervous, You have to learn how to decompress them and help them avoid stress.

This is a very complicated knowledge, which requires the head coach to be very familiar with every player in the team.

After Ye Qiu called out to win the Triple Crown, Tottenham Hotspur performed very well in the Premier League. League No.30 beat Black Cat Sunderland 1-0 in the second round away game. In the case of combat, they can maintain this momentum and not lose to Manchester City in single-line combat. Tottenham Hotspur deserves recognition.

Because there will be the European Cup first this summer and then the Olympic Games, the schedule will be compressed very tightly. This is also seen as a very unfavorable factor for Tottenham Hotspur. There was only a three-day gap between the three rounds, but even so, Tottenham still relied on the rotation policy to narrowly beat Southampton 30:30 at home.

Adrianse's side stole the show this time around at White Hart Lane, scoring against Petr Cech after just 13 minutes, but Tottenham quickly equalized in the first half and then In the second half, Vidal's goal completed a reversal, which also won Tottenham Hotspur's appreciation again.

This season Tottenham Hotspur has completed many reversals and many second-half winning games. The team's tenacity and fighting spirit have won unanimous affirmation from the media and fans. They are very resilient and willpower.

In the No.30 fourth round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur was postponed because of participating in the away game against Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final. The points gap between Nam and Tottenham has narrowed to one point, and Manchester City, which has won consecutive rounds in recent rounds, is also on the verge of breaking through.

For Manchester City's pursuit, Ye Qiu and the players also felt the pressure. After all, they led by eight points before being chased down to one point. Although they missed a game, the pressure was still very high. As for Saturday's FA Cup semi-final, Ye Qiu once again made a difficult decision, that is to arrange all substitutes and young players to play.

As a result, Tottenham Hotspur lost 0:2 away to Di Matteo's Chelsea and were eliminated from the FA Cup.

This has also been hyped and exaggerated by many outside media, who believe that Tottenham Hotspur can no longer sustain it, and the continuous multi-line battle has put Tottenham Hotspur in a difficult situation. Ye Qiu was even forced to give up the FA Cup , and this also declared that Ye Qiu's previous promise of the triple crown had completely failed.

But some people think this is a good thing, because after giving up the FA Cup, Tottenham Hotspur can put all their energy on the league and the Champions League, which may be good for Tottenham Hotspur.

But for a while, news that Tottenham Hotspur may collapse due to multi-line battles appeared in the newspapers, and many media even called this FA Cup semi-final defeat as Tottenham Hotspur. The signal of stabbing the collapse, there is a feeling of endless surprise and endless death.

…………

Theobald's mornings were always extraordinarily busy.

The members of the coaching staff came to the training base early and started the project preparation for the first training session in the morning. They not only had to arrange the field, but also arranged some preparations for the players after they arrived, which included a lot of details.

The reason why Tottenham Hotspur's training session can be compact and high-intensity is to rely on such details to pile up.

The players also arrived at Theobald early and prepared early in the locker room. Many people were talking about the FA Cup match last night. Although Ye Qiu did not rank the main players into the big List, but in fact, they all sat in the stands and witnessed the whole process of the team losing and being eliminated.

Some who have deep feelings for the club are filled with righteous indignation for the current situation of the team, while others are more indifferent, maybe they have lost their sense of victory or defeat, such as Raul and Pirlo, who have experienced professional competitions They don't have a strong impression of winning or losing, and some think that they are just a job and a salary when they come to the team.

But there is no doubt that last night's game became the focus of everyone's discussion in the locker room.

"We lost the game last night so badly, we didn't play well at all!" Thiago Silva shook his head and sighed.

"The main issue is the offense, especially on the right. Kyle Walker did not give Hazard strong support on the offensive end. As a result, although we played well on the left, we were in trouble on the right." Alves in the cabinet is changing his clothes. He has some understanding and views on the game.

Thiago Silva looked at Alves and knew that this Brazilian compatriot is now feeling the pressure of Kyle Walker. This England native right-back is very fast, has excellent physical fitness, and has simple and practical skills at his feet. Great ability to run back and forth, but more importantly he is solid defensively and has an excellent cross.

This is a trick learned from Beckham!

"Chelsea focused on attacking the right. Kyle Walker did a good job defensively, and he stepped in many times to help fill the gap in the middle. I think he has performed very well. When the midfielder can't control the situation, he can't control the situation on the left. Alba and Neymar have become the team's key offensive line, and the defense on the right is a matter of course."

When he was talking about this, Thiago Silva glanced at the locker room and looked at Alves when he saw that no one noticed him talking, "Daniel, you should pay attention to yourself. The first time I called you to pay attention to the defensive position in the game, you have to be a defender first, understand?"

"I know!" Alves smiled indifferently, "but you should also know that I am good at attacking, and I am negotiating with the team to renew my contract recently. I need better performance!"

"Good performance doesn't have to be reflected in the offensive end, buddy!" Thiago Silva kindly reminded him that he felt that this compatriot had been a little lazy recently, maybe it was because he had conflicts with his wife, and He has received the attention of many teams, and it is said that his agent met with people from Newcastle.

More people regard this kind of behavior as a kind of pressure on the club, which is a very common method in all players' contract renewal negotiations, but there should be a limit for everything. If it exceeds this limit, then It is very likely that the negotiations will break down, and even some unnecessary disputes will arise.

Thiago Silva, like Alves, joined the team when Ye Qiu just acquired Tottenham Hotspur. It has been six years now. He knows Ye Qiu very well, and he also knows Alves, he also knows very well that with more and more honors, Alves is no longer the Alves he was six years ago.

Sometimes, people will change, especially when he can't see the status quo clearly.

Some people, they don’t need too much motivation, they can always maintain a kind of calmness and rationality, and they always have an endless stream of motivation. This kind of motivation can enable them to train hard on the football field for more than ten years. This kind of person will become a legend in the eyes of countless fans.

But there are also some people who can maintain this hunger and motivation before success, but after success, especially after great success, they often lose their direction easily and begin to feel that they have the right to go Enjoy the honor you have already achieved, rather than go further to strive for more honor.

Both types are not uncommon in the football world, and the latter type is very common among Brazilian players, because everyone knows that Brazilian players are notoriously lazy, especially when they are successful.

As a friend and a teammate for many years, Thiago Silva has no way to communicate with Alves on many things, such as the emotional conflict between Alves and his wife, and his dissatisfaction with the team. out of the contract renewal conditions.

There is no doubt that it is impossible for Tottenham Hotspur to let Alves' salary exceed that of Messi and Ribery, so that they can achieve a balance in total income, so the biggest contradiction of Alves' contract renewal now lies in at this point.

Thiago Silva patted Alves on the shoulder, closed the wardrobe, turned around, and clapped his hands, "Okay, guys, stop talking, it's time to go to training!"

A group of people walked out of the locker room one after another. As soon as they walked out of the training building, they noticed that Ye Qiu, who basically didn't care about training, appeared on the training ground. pace.

Ye Qiu stood in the middle of the comprehensive training ground and watched the players approaching one after another. Many people came out of the training building and ran over quickly after seeing him. The two of them dragged behind slowly.

This is normal, every team has different personalities and different ideas.

Ye Qiu didn't speak until everyone had arrived.

"Before the training session, I have a few words to say!"

All the players listened silently, staring at their head coach.

"First of all, I'm sorry about the FA Cup last night, but I know that everyone who played did their best and as I said in the post-match press conference, I'm so proud of your performance. Proud, I also want to tell everyone that the game is over!"

All the players who participated in yesterday's FA Cup semi-final appeared on the training ground in the morning. After hearing Ye Qiu's words, some of them were relieved, while others were a little embarrassed or even ashamed.

"Our next task is very intense. From April [-]th to May [-]th, we will play a total of seven games!"

One of the games is the No.30 four rounds of the league postponed due to the FA Cup, plus the other four league games and two Champions League semi-finals with Barcelona, ​​a total of seven games, the schedule is indeed very dense.

"In such a dense and intense schedule, it is impossible for us to play all the games with just a few players. I need every player on the court to contribute to the team. I believe you all know it very well. They are all very eager to help the team survive this last wave of challenges and tests."

Ye Qiu's words got the nod of approval from many players. At the very least, Tottenham Hotspur have always done a good job in the sense of belonging to the team, and it is also a link that Ye Qiu has always attached great importance to.

"Guys, I hope you understand that losing the FA Cup is not terrible, and we have no time to regret and feel guilty, because it has become a thing of the past, and our next goals are only two, the league championship and the Champions League championship!"

"I hope you all know that in the 100-year history of the top league in English football, no team has ever won four consecutive championships in the top league, even Liverpool and Manchester United, who were invincible back then, just stopped Three consecutive championships, and now we have the opportunity to break and create this history."

"Also, it has been three years since we last touched the St. Bradley Cup in the UEFA Champions League. I believe that you are as hungry for it as I am. We need to show our courage and take it. Out of our will, to fight for it every game!"

"I want to tell you, guys, in the next month, these seven games, each game will not only determine your season, but also determine your life. If you succeed, your life will be determined." You will be proud of it, and if you fail, maybe many, many years later, even when you retire, you will have no chance to make up for this regret!"

Ye Qiu took a deep breath and shook his head, "I won't tell you to fight for the team or the fans, I will only tell you to fight for yourself!"

"Finally, once again, I solemnly tell everyone that this season, I must have these two championships!"

"must!"

Ye Qiu's final words were more like a beating and warning to the players. He wanted to use this method to tell his players. This is my idea. You'd better keep up, otherwise If not, I can't guarantee that you won't be left behind by the team.

After Ye Qiu finished speaking, Roland Shepas came out to ease the tense atmosphere. Fatty Luo began to arrange the training program for this morning, and one of the most important points was the first round match against Barcelona in the middle of the week.

Ye Qiu attached great importance to the first round of the home game. In his words, he wanted to directly defeat Barcelona at home.

There is really no way around this, because Tottenham Hotspur will play seven games in less than a month, and the league points will be chased by Manchester City to only one point, which will put a lot of pressure on the team. If they can't beat Barcelona in the first round, Ye Qiu really doesn't know if the team will be able to play at their best in the second game as a guest at Camp Nou.

This is also the reason why Ye Qiu played all the substitutes and the youth team in the FA Cup match on the weekend. He wanted to give all the main players of the team the best preparation time, so that they could go all out to prepare for the match after a week and a half of rest. Barcelona's focus battle will determine Tottenham Hotspur's European prospects this season.

It is true that Tottenham Hotspur's schedule is very dense, but the situation of the opponent Barcelona is not optimistic. It was late, so at the end of the season, their schedule became a double match a week.

Barcelona is currently ranked second in La Liga, behind Real Madrid, and will play La Liga No.30 second round on April [-], away to Zaragoza, home to Getafe on April [-], and away on April [-]. Challenge Levante, and then on April [-], away to Tottenham Hotspur.

Judging from this schedule, Barcelona is also very intensive. Although Guardiola has also carried out a strong rotation of the team, in order to ensure that the team can continue to compete with Real Madrid in La Liga, Guardiola Don't dare to be careless, several core players in the team, including Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Van Persie, etc., also start every game.

Therefore, in this battle, after Tottenham Hotspur gave up the FA Cup semi-finals, they were instead waiting for work and recharging their energy.

Before the game, almost all the media were paying attention to this focus game, and when almost all ball commentators were looking forward to this focus game, they believed that Tottenham Hotspur would definitely do their best in this game. Go all out to attack, while Barcelona will continue to adopt frontcourt suppression tactics, severely suppress Tottenham Hotspur, and strive to gain a certain advantage in the away game.

Although Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, ​​had a bad relationship with Russell, he also pointed out in the column before the game that the most important thing about Barcelona's away trip is that Tottenham Hotspur cannot play a smooth attack.

"Barcelona's own defense has always had problems. If Tottenham Hotspur play a smooth attack, then this game will be very hanging, so the key focus of this game is to suppress. Is Barcelona suppressing Tottenham? Tottenham Hotspur, or Tottenham Hotspur to suppress Barcelona with offense, this is the biggest suspense!"

But Cruyff still believes that if Barcelona can make good use of their possession, they still have a chance to win.

After all, after selling Yaya Toure, Cesc Fabregas and David Silva, Tottenham Hotspur has been weakened in terms of possession. The combination of last season still has some gaps in ball control.
