"From now on, you have to receive two hours of tactical knowledge learning every day. What I want to tell you today is what the tactical framework of our new season is like? What are our core elements?"

At 4:00 p.m. on the first day of the training camp, the first team of Ajax held the first tactical preparation meeting after the training camp in the tactical preparation room. The meeting time was two hours, and then the rest was half an hour, and the third training class was held at 6:30.

Three training sessions a day, which is the training plan finalized by Ye Qiu during the preparations for the season.

"I believe all of you know that tactics are always moving forward. The tactics in the past were relatively loose and not rigorous enough. At that time, tactics emphasized more of the matchup. What does this mean?"

"To put it simply, the forward vs. central defender, full-time vs. full-back vs. full-back vs. midfield vs. midfield vs. midfield, this is a matchup. In this matchup, what determines the victory of a football match is the player's personal strength. The more matchups you win, the game you can win."

This sentence is not difficult to understand. Ye Qiu has been preparing for this tactical class for a long time, and even studied it with Bobby Hams and others for a long time. It was finally easy to sort out such a simple and easy-to-understand tactical analysis.

Therefore, many players at the scene nodded without stopping after hearing this.

"But I want to tell you that in the past two years, and even in the future, the football tactical formation will be more compact and rigorous than at any time in the past, and the utilization rate of every inch of space on the court will be higher. In this case, the players will respond more frequently, and the matchup will no longer determine the victory of a game!"

This is not difficult to understand. In the past, there was not much response, and it was easy to fall into one-on-one situation, but now it is rigorous and echoing, and it is easy to fall into one-on-two, or even one-on-many situation. Therefore, Ye Qiu's words also made this group of players who have played football understand immediately.

"What determines the outcome of the game victory?"

The answer is already very clear.

"Teamwork!" Ye Qiu wrote this word on the tactical blackboard. "And the most important thing in teamwork is running without the ball. This is the foundation for a team to make a life and the key to a team's victory, because in a game, most of the time, players are in a ball state, right?"

Afterwards, Ye Qiu released a video.

The video shows one of the scenes of Ajax II playing the Cup last season.

Hunterlaer pulled out an opponent's central defender. Sneider made a pass behind him, and Van der Fate penetrated into the penalty area. He took advantage of the gap exposed by the opponent's central defender being pulled out of the defense area. After successfully counterattacking, he got the ball and formed a single shot.

"This is a dilemma. Hunteral retreats, will the central defender follow or not?"

The players on the scene all showed a thoughtful look, which was also the effect Ye Qiu wanted, so that they could think more.

"After, there is a gap behind him. If you don't follow, Hunterlaer easily gets the ball. At this time, we can have more offensive routines, such as Hunterlaer getting the ball, Sneider suddenly stepped forward, attracting the defensive players, and then passing it to Van der Fate in a diagonal way, which can still create a threat!"

Everyone showed a thoughtful look, and they all knew that Ye Qiu was right.

At this moment, Jifu raised his hand and said, "Boss, as you say, if you encounter such an attack, how can you defend it?"

What Ye Qiu wanted was to speak freely, so he smiled and signaled Kifu to sit down, "It's very simple. If we were teams working together, midfielders would retreat, and Hunteral would retreat immediately, and then the forwards would retreat in turn. The defense system of the entire team remained tight and rigorous, and the problem would be solved!"

"So, this tells us a very important truth. Offense is not the responsibility of an offensive player, and defense is not just the responsibility of a defensive player. We are a whole, and offense and defense are a whole. Running can make our whole run smoother, more controlful, and stronger."

"I can even say that as long as the tactical formation continues to develop towards compactness and rigorousness, the importance of unball running will become greater and greater. Teams without a reasonable and excellent unball running system will be eliminated, and players who lack unball running awareness will be eliminated!"

Ye Qiu's words were very confident and decisive, which made all the players present clearly realize the importance of running without the ball, whether for the team or themselves.

After everyone realized the importance of running without balls, Ye Qiu spent a lot of time explaining his understanding of running without balls, as well as his application and requirements for running without balls in training. These are all for all players to understand Ye Qiu's training purposes and tactical requirements more deeply.

A person will only accept and work hard when he understands why he does things.

After talking about running without the ball, Ye Qiu spent a long time, adding some videos and videos, plus the team 433's position, running position and area control chart he had drawn before, analyzing his specific tactical framework and tactical settings, so that every player understands the specific responsibilities he assumes in this set of tactics.

Ye Qiu clearly distinguishes what the full-back wants to do, what the central forward wants to do, and what the forward wants to do, so he instills in the players in this way to let them understand, but this is just the beginning, because after understanding, you must be familiar with it, know how to use it, and know how to maintain coordinated combat.

It can be said that there is still a long way to go, but Ye Qiu must move forward step by step.

…………

…………

"I really didn't expect that the boss had done so many things without us knowing!"

When he returned to the locker room to rest and was preparing for the third training class, Sneider said incredible that Ye Qiu had instilled a lot of tactical knowledge and content related to the team in this two-hour tactical class.

"I think the boss's tactics are further improved on the basis of the second team, and it is still 433, but many details have become different. For example, the forward pays more attention to the connection and echo of the two left and right wingers. This is my weakness!" Hunterlaer saw his shortcomings.

"Don't worry, the boss said that as long as you are willing to work hard, there is nothing you can't do!" Van der Fate comforted.

They were all old ministers from the second team last season. They admire Ye Qiu with no doubts, but the new players are not so easy to convince.

"Did you never doubt that what you said in your mouth may be just empty words, and may not be correct. What kind of tactics are rigorous and fighting with the team? Isn't this the striker also puts on defense and the defender also participates in the offense? If you run like this, the striker will come back to defend and will consume a lot of physical energy, so how can you have time to score goals?"

Ibrahimovic is a thorn, and at the same time he also has a sense of fear and resistance towards Ye Qiu. In addition, he is not the kind of player who likes to run a lot, so he naturally resists it.

"You will doubt that it's because you haven't participated, but we..." Van der Fate glanced at his teammates next to him with a proud look on his face, "...we are witnesses of the football team leader!"

"That's right, do you think, how did we win the Dutch Cup?" Sneder also responded.

When it came to this matter, the locker room suddenly became noisy. All the players who joined the team had never heard of this before. After coming to Amsterdam, they vaguely heard some clues, but they had never understood the truth of the matter. Now that Van der Fatt and Sneider said it, they naturally became interested and asked questions one by one.

"We were still in the second team at that time!" Kivo took the initiative to tell everyone about the process. "I was later transferred by the first team. They were all promoted from the youth team. At that time, our team was basically a group of players around 16 years old, and no one would look down on us because those participating in the Dutch Cup were all professional league teams."

Even amateur fans know how big the gap is between professional teams and youth teams, let alone this group of professional players.

After listening to Kifu's words, even though he was as arrogant as Ibrahimovic, he got closer and listened attentively.

"We met the Eagles of the Advancement in the Durred Second League. Everyone said we would definitely lose, but in the end, we defeated our opponents and advanced to the next round. It was nothing, but we drew Eindhoven!"

"Last season's Eredivisie, Eindhoven?" Gilberto Silva was a little surprised. He had known about this team.

"Yes, Eindhoven was invincible in the Eredivisie at that time. He had never lost even a game in the Netherlands. In Europe, he was a team that played against Bayern and Valencia. There were famous players like Van Nistruei and Van Bomel, and they had just defeated our first team 4-0 at Arena Stadium!"

"It's over, it's over, you're not dead?" Yaya Toure shouted in a panic.

Ibrahimovic glanced at him, "How could they die if they won the championship in the end?"

Yaya Toure immediately understood that he was wrong, and laughed and stopped talking.

"That's right, all the Netherlands thought we were dead at that time. Even the Ajax fans thought we were going to be done. The club's management also saw that we would die. The Chairman also said that as long as we don't lose too ugly, it's enough!" Kivo said with a smile, not telling that this guy is not very eloquent.

Everyone in the locker room felt sad when they heard this. At that time, it could be said that they would die without life. Who would still think of winning?

"Then how did you defeat Eindhoven in the end?" Gilberto Silva asked with concern.

Van der Fat smiled, "Everyone thinks we want to lose, and we ourselves think we want to lose, but the boss just keeps telling us, who the fuck will definitely lose? He kept telling us that as long as he is willing to fight, there is no one on the football field who is born to lose. Even the powerful Eindhoven, we will kill him!"

"Well said!" Lucio didn't say much, but he was very tough, thinking Ye Qiu's taste for him.

Everyone who plays football is bloody. After hearing Ye Qiu say this, many people present had a look at the serene head coach with admiration. Even Ibrahimovic, who was not very sensitive to Ye Qiu, could not help but admire him.

"We have no capital. In terms of strength, we are not as good as our opponents, in terms of experience, we lose everything, but the boss tells us that we have two things that we cannot lose, one is the whole. We are a team and face a war. All of us have to advance and retreat together. Whoever is afraid of fighting and who is selfish is the turtle bastard!"

"Well said!"

"That's what it should be!"

A response suddenly sounded in the locker room, and many players also became excited.

"There is another fighting spirit. I dare to say that, everyone has no confidence in us, that is, the leader always has confidence in us and constantly encourages us!"

Speaking of this, Van der Fate looked at Kivo, Sneider and others. Even Abidal, who was silent, couldn't help but show a look of remembrance. This made everyone present feel that it would be worth pride for a professional player in his life!

"That game was very difficult and difficult. Eindhoven had all the advantages, suppressing us and constantly fighting, fighting, and fighting, making us unable to resist and almost unable to support it, but we all gritted our teeth and held on for the last breath, because none of us would want to be the first tortoise bastard to give up our teammates!"

Those present have played or watched the ball. Naturally, they know what kind of passive situation the weak side will be in a huge gap in strength. They can naturally imagine how much pressure and pain the group of Ajax second team players were at that time.

But they finally defeated Eindhoven, what did that prove?

Isn’t it just proof of Ye Qiu’s words?

Team is the key and basis for a team to achieve victory!

"What's next after defeating Eindhoven?" Macon saw that no one asked, and the locker room was quiet, so he mustered up the courage to ask his doubts.

Kivo smiled and took Vanderfart's words, "After defeating Eindhoven, it was just the beginning, but it brought us unprecedented confidence and made us all believe that what the boss said was right. As long as we unite and advance and retreat together, there will be no opponent in this world that we cannot defeat!"

"After that, we met Udrecht, Helenfin, and finally met Feyenoord in the final!"

The three teams, each of which ranked higher than Ajax in the Eredivisie last season, shows the strength of these three teams, among which Helenfin and Feyenoord ranked second and third respectively, both entered the UEFA Champions League, and their strength was extraordinary.

It can be said that any team has the ability to crush this weak youth team to death.

However, Ajax II team laughed to the end and won the Dutch Cup.

Without understanding the situation or the opponent, everyone will laugh when they hear the second team win the Dutch Cup championship. At most, they will just say the previous sentence, it is not easy, but only after they truly understand the opponent, the environment, and the situation, they will know how difficult it is.

"At that time, we played very hard in every game, and we fought for our lives, but we trusted our boss very much from beginning to end. He said we went east, we went east, and he said we went west, we went west without hesitation. In the end, we laughed to the end and won the championship!"

The locker room was quiet, and everyone could feel that the players from the Ajax II team had such a unique temperament in their spirit, or in other words, each of them seemed to have such a stubbornness of not admitting defeat or admitting defeat.

This is a group of soldiers who have experienced cruel baptism. Everyone can easily feel their tenacious style on the court and their fighting spirit that will last minute and second from them.

This is the player brought out by head coach Ye Qiu!

Everyone stopped talking because from the mouths of this group of players from the second team, they had a more comprehensive understanding of their head coach and also developed a stronger sense of trust in the head coach from the bottom of their hearts.

More than half a year ago, the head coach said he would lead the young second team teenagers to the Dutch Cup, and he did it.

Half a year later, he said that he would lead this group of unknown young players to compete for the Eredivisie championship, and he would definitely be able to do it.

Even the arrogant Ibrahimovic had a great impression of Ye Qiu after listening to the words of Van der Fat and others. At least he felt less fear of Ye Qiu in his heart, because from the words of Van der Fat and others, he could feel their trust between them.

This is what Ye Qiu said at the tactical preparation meeting. The most important thing for a team is to trust each other.

Passing depends on trust, assisting depends on trust. All cooperation on the football field is based on trust.

Without trust, any team will be a mess.

Perhaps seeing no one speaks and the locker room is quiet, Van der Fate stood up and smiled, "So, I never doubt what the boss said. He said that we can do it, and that I will definitely do it. I will not doubt this because it is not what I should care about."

"For me, it would be enough to trust our boss, do what he asks, and do his best!"

"Raphael is right, the boss can say that he can do it!" Givu agreed with this.

"Okay, it's time to go out for training!" Fred Grim clapped his hands and shouted, his expression looking a little embarrassed, because he was a first-team player last season. The glory of the second team has nothing to be proud of for him, but more so it is shame and embarrassment.

Ye Qiu really didn't know that his players would have such exchanges in the locker room after the training class, but he obviously felt that the players' enthusiasm for training in the last training class in the afternoon had improved a lot. This was a good phenomenon, and he felt happy in his heart.
