Red Rebels

"Why did you suddenly think of going to them?"

On the plane from Manchester to Eindhoven, Kassel stared at Xiao Yu who was sitting opposite him in a strange way.

Just yesterday, Xiao Yu suddenly called him and asked him if he knew René Meulensteen and Ricardo Moniz. Cassel certainly knew him. Back then, he assisted Eddie in the Manchester United youth training camp. When Rick Harrison was in the Netherlands, he had been to the Netherlands many times to meet Gufren, and Moniz and Meulensteen also often studied and discussed with Gufren, so they often met.

Speaking of Gu Furen, Xiao Yu remembered a piece of history.

In the Netherlands, the training methods for young players are divided into two groups. One group is headed by Michels and Cruyff, who pioneered Total Football. They stubbornly insist that players' skills are born, so they should Start training their running position, formation, tactics, awareness and team spirit from an early age.

Due to the success of Total Defense, coupled with the status of Cruyff and Michels in Dutch football, this set of them is highly respected and sacred by the Dutch.

However, there is another person in the Netherlands who created a player training system, which is mainly based on technology. He believes that the most important task for young players is to first master technology, and they should first tap the player's technical potential and wait until the technology is finalized. Only then did he start instilling tactical concepts. This person is Gufrene.

Because the philosophy is completely different from that of Cruyff and Michels, Gufren's training method is regarded as heresy in the Netherlands, and he is not even allowed to open a football school in the Netherlands.

However, with the rapid development of football, Gufren's concept of technical flow has begun to be accepted by people. Now the youth training of all clubs and countries basically focuses on tapping technical potential, and the tactical concept and physical fitness generally have to reach 15-15. It will only be involved when you are around 18 years old. This is an evolution of Gufren's training system.

And Ricardo Moniz is one of the two best students of Gufren, and the other is Meulensteen. Fans who are familiar with Manchester United in the previous life know that he will enter Old Trafford this summer. , Helping Ferguson coach the youth team.

Moniz is more low-key than Meulensteen. He has played for Feyenoord, PSV, Tottenham, Hamburg and other teams. The well-known star later went to Tottenham, and many coaches followed him to learn training methods and theories.

However, he has never had the experience of working in a wealthy family like Meulensteen. On the contrary, Ten Carter, another admirer of Gufren, when he entered Barcelona to assist Rijkaard, praised Gufren in public many times. At the same time, he is also considered to be the catalyst of Barcelona's technical flow.

When Xiao Yu played FM before, Moniz and Meulenstein were the two coaches with the best technical training in his impression. For this reason, he specially checked their information and found this history.

And he just thought that Meulensteen was valued by Ferguson and introduced into Manchester United's youth training. Maybe Cassell knew him, but after asking, he found that not only did he know him, but he also seemed to have a good relationship.

Moniz is currently serving as a coach in Eindhoven in the Netherlands, while Meulensteen is serving as a youth team coach at NEC Club in the Netherlands. Obviously Ferguson has not thought about finding a youth training assistant, so he has not yet taken a fancy to Mullenstein. Lenstein.

"Why don't you talk, why do you suddenly want to go to them?" Cassel asked urgently.

Xiao Yu smiled, "I want to find two assistants for you. I know that they are very experienced in the field of youth training, and they also have a unique training method. I hope to introduce them to the new Manchester United youth training camp. Help you handle the youth training, so that you can have more time to do other things, you are our youth training director, you can't do everything yourself!"

Cassel was taken aback after hearing this, and looked at Xiao Yu with some emotion,

The latter turned his head and looked to the side without knowing it. He is now thinking that he was poached by Chelsea with a lot of money. Frank Arnesen, who is known as the number one scout, is currently in Eindhoven. If possible, he should go to him See above.

But as soon as this idea came up, Xiao Yu quickly suppressed it. He felt that Arnesen was undoubtedly capable, but he was too ambitious, and even always interfered with the head coach. This was not allowed by Xiao Yu, and he The best scouting network, in Xiao Yu's opinion, is not very good.

Without Arneson, Arsenal would still spread the scouting network all over the world, and the young stars dug out are more accurate. It can be seen that the person who hosts the scouting network is important, but the construction of the scouting network is also very important.

Cassel has a good eye for people, and he is also very familiar with the construction of the new Manchester United's current team's tactical system. He is in charge of the new Manchester United's scouting network. I dare not say that I can single out Ronaldo, but It is enough to at least select some players suitable for the new Manchester United tactics.

As Xiao Yu said before, no club can contain all the football talents in the world!

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu completely dismissed the idea of ​​visiting Arnesen. After getting off the plane, he went directly to Moniz's house with Cassel.

Because of the phone call in advance, when Xiao Yu and the others arrived, Moniz was waiting at home.

Xiao Yu's first impression of this curly-haired Dutchman was that he had a deep hatred and bitterness. His brows were always deeply wrinkled, as if he would always have troubles that could not be resolved.

"Hehe, Jim, what wind brought you here!" When seeing Xiao Yu and the two, Moniz came out of the house with a smile.

Even when welcoming guests, he gave the impression of being miserable.

"I'm here on a special trip to visit you, Ricardo," Cassel smiled politely at him, and then introduced Xiao Yu, "This is the new boss of Manchester United, Mr. Xiao Yu!"

"New Manchester United?" Moniz frowned even deeper. "I've heard about your team. It's a very good team. By the way, Jim, are you working in New Manchester United now?"

Cassel shrugged, nodded helplessly and said, "It's been two years, Ricardo, I don't like the current atmosphere of Manchester United, so I chose to leave."

Moniz seemed to feel the same way, patted Cassel on the shoulder comfortingly, and the three of them walked into his home side by side.

This is a three-story building located in a residential area. There is a small courtyard outside and an old car is parked inside. Obviously, the salary Moniz receives in Eindhoven is not high, so he can barely be regarded as a Middle class.

Both Moniz and Kassel are very pure football players. Even though Moniz is less than 40 years old, he has been engaged in football for more than ten years, especially in the field of football training. In addition to inheriting In addition to the essence of Gufferen's training system, it has also been continuously improved and strengthened in years of practice.

As soon as the three walked into the living room, Moniz took the lead in talking about some topics, but soon moved to football.

The topic of discussion between Moniz and Kassel is nothing more than football training, which is their strong point, and from these conversations, Xiao Yu can clearly know Moniz's training philosophy.

He believes that when training young players, we should cultivate their interest, encourage them to play freely, and then train their dribbling, ball, ball sense and individual combat ability. In these special training programs, he believes that Ball and ball feel are the most important.

This reminded Xiao Yu of Ronaldinho. This Brazilian superstar is like a juggler when he plays ball. Ronaldinho's technical ability is outstanding.

It's a bit like the later generations are learning English. Some people just rely on rote memorization of those words and dialogues, but some people focus on cultivating language sense. This fact proves that the latter is more conducive to mastering a foreign language.

Obviously, the same applies to football.

Moniz believes that from the age of 5 to 18, there should be a complete set of training technology planning. Of course, he does not deny that there are geniuses in the football field, such as Cruyff, but he believes that professional training is to stimulate the potential of geniuses. The key is that without training, a genius cannot become a genius.

At this time, Moniz mentioned Beckham. He believed that Beckham's talent in football was actually not high, but he could become one of the best midfielders in today's football because of his continuous training. What he admires most is Beckham's sense of the ball, the kind of long pass transfer over 35 meters, which cannot be passed without a super sense of the ball.

And Beckham's sense of the ball is undoubtedly not innate, it is honed by him through continuous hard training.

Similarly, there are his free kicks!

When the two long-lost friends talked about football, they couldn't stop talking.

Xiao Yu listened to it with great interest. He felt that through the conversation between the two, he had a better understanding of the training of the youth academy. He even thought that this training method of Moniz should not only be limited to Youth training camps and adult teams can also participate, but the proportions are different.

Moniz has been immersed in this training system for many years, and his insight is naturally not comparable to that of a layman like Xiao Yu. Dig one of the staff.

After they finished chatting, nearly an hour passed.

"It seems that you are also a person who likes football very much!" Moniz said with a smile when he saw Xiao Yu listening with gusto.

Xiao Yu shook his head humbly. He felt that his understanding of football could not be compared with that of professionals, while Kassel kept nodding, telling Moniz about Xiao Yu's past deeds, and at the same time talking about the new Manchester United. The reason for its establishment and the history of its development.

In fact, it is impossible for Moniz, who is in the football circle, not to know about these things, but he feels that Xiao Yu can be so respected by Kassel, and he immediately admires him in his heart.

There are many rich bosses in the football world now, and there are some rich bosses who are willing to invest in football, but there are very few bosses who are rich and willing to invest in football, and at the same time have deep feelings for football and know football very well.

And Xiao Yu's fan background made Moniz have a deeper sense of identification with him.

"Mr. Moniz, I want to know, are you interested in coming to our club as the technical director?" Xiao Yu extended the invitation with a smile.
