Section 299: The Cracks of the National Youth (Part 2)
After Wang Ai heard this, he was speechless for a long time.
In the youth team, everyone is an amateur player and basically has no income. The better ones are in clubs, with food and clothing provided by the club. The worse ones are in football schools and have to use their family's money. In addition, the players who play football are basically poor.
We are a family, so everyone enjoys the hardships, but the friendship is very pure.
Everyone in the national team, including the Olympic team, is already a professional player. Although there is a big gap between the rich and poor in the club, personal status and even income level, they basically have enough food and clothing, so they can look past this.
The only problem is the youth team!
Because in the youth team, there are only a few who perform particularly well, not counting those who are very special like Wang Ai, but there are very few people like Guo Liang and Zhao Xuri who can enter the first team as the main force at the age of seventeen or eighteen. Youth Team
The players are basically all members of the echelon of various clubs. Although the future is bright, who knows? One injury may interrupt his career. It seems a bit out of reach.
As the youth team members are approaching 20 years old, they have begun to think about the mature stage of life, and have also begun to consider the issue of making money to support their families. From the perspective of benefits, wages, etc., they are all in the stage of working hard to enter the adult team.
In other words, the income gap between the youth team, the national team, and the Olympic team is basically not big, and their status is also in the same class. However, only the youth team has a huge gap, even a world of difference. In Zhao Xuri's view
, his former teammates played in the A-League, and it was a different world. But he didn’t know that those national youth teammates who couldn’t even play in the A-B league were also very envious of him, and many of them would not even be able to enter the professional league in the future.
.
This is probably the problem with the National Youth League, or the problem of "looking down on people" as Zhao Xuri said. On the one hand, the four of them, Guo Liang, entered the first team and played in Class A. They are among the best among their peers.
Young people who are outstanding and one step ahead will definitely be a little arrogant and can't help but stick together, thinking that only the four of them are "the same kind of people". As for other players, there is a psychological gap and envy.
Watching the four of them play together, even if others don't say anything, they will feel "looked down upon".
As for the youth teams in the past, or before the professionalization started, although there were personal future problems, the overall difference was not big. In the first few years of professionalization, it was a mess. The youth teams still followed the habits of the past, and the players still paid attention to passion.
Dedication, not paying much attention to the issue of personal income and status. Now it has entered the eighth year of professionalism. The main stars of the first-line team have entered the stage of "earning millions a year", and the youth team still leads 1,800
With the dead wages, the income gap between players has greatly widened. As a result, the psychological gap between young players in the same team can be imagined. Even Guo Liang and the others are only substitutes in the first team, barely gaining a foothold.
That's it, the monthly income is not much better than that of the youth team, but after all, it has touched the edge of "annual salary of one million".
"Did they say something?" Wang Ai asked.
"There are some rumors." Zhao Xuri shook his head: "But I haven't heard it with my own ears. Boss, before you came, I felt that they not only played together off the field, but also played together on the field, and they didn't listen to Wang.
Coach Wang and Coach Gao are quite different, and I can’t tell what’s right or wrong, but I always feel that it’s not a good thing if it goes on like this.”
Wang Ai frowned and nodded.
"Boss!" Zhao Xuri said sincerely: "Isn't it because the four of them are crazy because they play in the A-level League? It's better if you come here. You have already studied abroad to play football, and you are still the absolute main force. What does the A-level mean? And what's more?
You performed so well in the World Cup, you are the absolute main force of the national team, and you have the silver boots. Anyway, I think you have to suppress them, they will definitely not dare to challenge you like we did."
Wang Ai smiled: "Isn't Yang Hao the captain? He doesn't care?"
Zhao Xuri shook his head: "I just said, he is still in the second-tier team in Guoan, how can he care about four people? They are all professional players? Besides, you don't know about Lao Yang. He doesn't like to talk and is quite introverted.
of."
Wang Ai frowned. There is indeed a problem in selecting captains for national brands. The captains selected are all introverted, honest and obedient, and can implement the leadership's intentions. However, there is no question about whether they can effectively lead the team and command the team on the field.
I don’t think much of them. Dewey from the National Olympics and Yang Hao from the National Youth League are both introverts and don’t like to talk. This is not the qualification of a qualified captain on the field.
"It's the same thing again, boss, if you don't care, I'm going to get more and more angry, and something will definitely go wrong when playing football. If that happens, I have no choice anyway. Boss, you might as well go to the National Olympics and Junior Nationals more often.
This national youth team definitely has no future, I have never seen a team that is divided into gangs and can still play well!"
"How many have you seen?" Wang Ai sneered.
"I, I, I... I'm four years older than you!" Zhao Xuri held it in for a long time before coming up with such a reason.
Wang Ai did not refute, but quietly thought about Zhao Xuri's reaction.
In fact, in the past two days, Wang Ai also discovered this sign. For example, in the match with the Vietnam Asian Games team, Guo Liang and the others were more confident and dared to make moves, while the others were much worse. So these four people
There are also more interactions on the court. The other players are very honest, so the gap is obvious. Before Wang Ai learned these details, he was thinking about how to integrate the two systems.
The other thing is that Wang Ai discovered that the National Youth Team has the same problem as the National Olympic Games? The training is also very ruthless and unscientific. If you just look at the physical condition of the players, such as the 25-meter return run, they are all excellent.
, but the physical condition is sub-healthy, or the physical burden is very heavy, and the mental state is not good. The fatigue is obvious.
After thinking for a long time, Wang Ai felt that he still couldn't let this matter go unchecked. Although what he saw and heard were common problems under such a training system, Wang Ai was somewhat "aesthetically tired", but now that he was here, he saw
, then you shouldn’t find it annoying to say one sentence all the time.
Besides, Zhao Xuri is still looking at him eagerly. If he really doesn't care about the future of this National Youth Team, why would he come to find him secretly? He also hopes that the National Youth Team can achieve good results.
"Okay, Lao Zhao, you go back first. I will think of a way to deal with this matter. Don't tell anyone, don't think about it, and don't worry about it." Wang Ai calmly ordered: "Old Zhao, our brother
But, let me tell you the truth, it is not easy for me to deal with this matter. After all, Director Wang and I are not familiar with each other. I can't just have a big quarrel with Lao Shen and start fighting with Lao Wang again, right? But
I can still manage it more or less, but you are different, you can’t touch this kind of thing, you can’t even talk about it, do you understand?”
Zhao Xuri nodded solemnly: "I know, I told you, and I didn't tell anyone. I am too small to get involved in the affairs of great immortals like you. Anyway, I think you will definitely find out in the future.
If you can't sit still, you'll have to come to me when the time comes, so it's better if I take the initiative to come to you and report."
"Anyway," Wang Ai nodded: "I will fire this cannon for you!"
