The world-famous coach? Hiddink encountered shame in his first game in the Netherlands!

In a shameful battle, Hiddink was completely defeated by Young Marshal Ajax!

Eindhoven suffered a rare defeat in recent years, and Hiddink was questioned by fans!

On the soft chair next to the swimming pool for beginners, Ye Qiu, wearing a pair of swimming trunks, was still dripping with water on her body, but she was looking at the newspapers she bought on the way that Eliza brought over.

In the swimming pool under his feet, a mermaid was shuttled back and forth.

Hiddink became famous in the World Cup by bringing South Korea into the semi-finals of the World Cup. For a time, it seemed to be exaggerated by the media to become one of the best coaches in the world, especially in the Netherlands. Because Van Gaal led the Dutch national team to the World Cup failure, the Netherlands missed the World Cup finals, the Dutch focused more attention on Hiddink.

There is no doubt that Hiddink's transformation of the Korean team was very successful, but it definitely did not reach the level of being a god. To some extent, Hiddink is still quite a distance away from the top European head coach.

Ye Qiu was a little surprised by the final result of this game. He felt that this game was a bit accidental, that is, Hiddink's Eindhoven played too passively. When they contracted the three lines, they overpowered the initiative of the game to Ajax, which undoubtedly encouraged Ajax's ball-control time.

In terms of ball possession rate, Ajax is as high as 68.5%, while the pass success rate reaches 83.5%. Both numbers are very high, and it can even be said to be the longest ball possession time and the most efficient one since Ye Qiu started coaching.

What exactly causes it?

Half lying on the soft chair on the shore, Ye Qiu searched the Godfather's cultivation system in his mind and went directly to the learning house.

After three years of accumulation, the tactical books he read about the famous coaches had already filled the entire study room, and he even had to spend more reward points to expand the space of the study room to store more books.

Although Ye Qiu has been from 2013, he has a partial affirmation attitude towards Barcelona, ​​which is the most peak around 2013. He always believes that Barcelona's ball control system must have its advanced concept of surpassing other opponents, but no team can copy Barcelona's set of plans, because each team has its own uniqueness.

In the past three years after the time travel, Ye Qiu has seen the tactical ideas and essences of many world-renowned coaches, and even some ordinary head coaches. He has learned many tactical ideas and ideas in many aspects. There are conservatives and radicals, who tend to win defense and choose to take offense first. Whether it is Capello, Mourinho, Guardiola and Bielsa, Ye Qiu has seen it.

However, Ye Qiu adopted a half-believing and skeptical attitude towards these people's tactical thoughts and ideas. He may agree with some of the views and deny some of them, but this does not mean that the views he agrees with must be correct, while the denied ones must be wrong.

There is no absolute right or wrong in this world, and it seems that it is difficult to define whether a head coach is conservative or radical, or whether he tends to attack or defend. Ye Qiu's criteria for choosing are always based on his own needs.

When it comes to ball control, Ye Qiu highly praised Cruyff's idea.

When many people mention Cruyff's ball-control thinking, they always mention a sentence, "First control the ball at your feet and let our opponents not be controlled by the ball, and then you will win the game."

This sentence is definitely taken out of context and is the result of typical media remarks. They just put a simple and easy-to-understand and easy-to-remember label on Cruyff's concept of ball control, which is the extreme ball control theory.

Cruyff once said that he felt that there were only two people in the middle of the midfield, which was too thin, so he liked that there were three people in the midfield, which was to be able to defend better. "I like defense more than anyone imagined, and I can't win, but I don't lose."

"There is an episode in the Simpsons about a football game. One side passes the ball negatively, but it just doesn't attack. They are intoxicated by passing the ball, intoxicated by their own ball control, and even everything they do is to control the ball. This is meaningless, because the reason why the existence of ball control is necessary is to launch an attack through ball control and strive for goals."

"What I emphasize from beginning to end is passing, and the ball control is composed of passing, but uncontrollable ball control is not the goal that passes want to achieve, it is simply."

"I used it for many years and found out that playing football was simple, but it was difficult to play simple football!"

"It's like tiki-taka, the bullfighter wants to control the whole game. He keeps teasing the bull through various means and methods, angering him, and then as it rushed up quickly, and was about to hit him, he used the cover of the cloak, combined with a beautiful and elegant turn, and passed by the angry bull, making him lose his breath."

"This is the essence of real control. When put on the football field, the ultimate goal of the ball-controlling party is not to control the ball, but to make the opponent snatch out like a bull, revealing a fatal flaw. The ball-controlling party is like a bullfighter, using simple but very clever skills and covers to pass by the opponent."

"At that moment, the opponent's defense was the weakest, because after they found themselves empty-handed and revealed their flaws, they were desperately trying to slow themselves down and fill in the loopholes. The ball-handed party saw through the loopholes and tried desperately to make themselves get up and take advantage of this loophole. This fierce collision between fast and slow will bring a pleasing and exciting scene."

"Leonardo da Vinci said that the most complex is the most simple. I believe that all football coaches' pursuits are consistent, that is, to score goals and wins in the simplest way, which is also my pursuit!"

Ye Qiu has seen many tactical ideas of world-renowned coaches, but he really found that no head coach's entire tactical ideas can be as good as Cruyff. He has a complete tactical thinking system.

This is also what Ye Qiu thinks about him all the time. He may not be a great head coach or a likable guy, but he is definitely a great football thinker because he is thinking about a set of philosophy that belongs to football almost all the time.

Simple, difficult? Not difficult!

Simple, easy? Not easy!

It’s like eating, drinking water and sleeping every day is very simple, very simple, as if we can do it with every move. But who still remembers when we just started learning to pick up food with chopsticks and learn to drink water with cups?

Don’t forget that it took decades, or even a lifetime of exercise, to make eating, drinking water, and sleeping simple. If we didn’t use so much time, would these things still be simple?

The simplest and most difficult, because things will only become simple after mastering the most complex techniques.

So, possessing the ball is not the ultimate goal, it is simply!

Back to this game, Ye Qiu felt that Ajax's possession rate was a bit high, with a percentage of about 60%, because if you don't give your opponent more chances, it would be like not letting the angry bull rush up, and they would probably not reveal any flaws at all.

Another thing that Ye Qiu was not satisfied with was that Arteta was too pursuing accuracy and lacked the spirit of adventure.

Arteta made a total of 101 passes in this game, which has never been seen in Ajax in the past few years, with only 5 turnovers, which is very terrible, because Sneijder only had 61 moves and had 11 turnovers, but he created 5 threatening passes in total.

Ye Qiu has always believed one thing, that is, without adventure, there will never be any creativity, because the emergence of creativity itself is a result of adventure. If there is no adventure, it is impossible to have creativity.

Sneider's creativity is good. Ye Qiu did not suppress his adventures too much, and gave him more freedom to pass, allowing him to play. Arteta himself pursues the success rate of passing, and he is afraid of making mistakes.

The UK is hailed as the most creative comedian John Chris, saying, "Creativity is not a gift, it is just a way of behavior. Creative people have a specific emotion that makes their creativity work, and anyone is fully capable of doing this."

Beckenbauer once said, "A head coach must be more creative than a player, because a player's creativity can only make himself perform on the court, but a head coach's creativity is to make every player on the team more creative on the court."

Because he has seen a lot, Ye Qiu knows a lot. He is constantly improving his tactical thoughts and ideas, and he is constantly looking for the best path for him, but he maintains a humble attitude from beginning to end to study, even though he often looks arrogant.

It seems that three years have passed, and he still has not changed his habit of getting into the study room and reading various books whenever he has time. He is still absorbing knowledge from all aspects and constantly increasing his value.

In Ye Qiu's view, if some of Arteta's passes can be more risky, although Ajax's pass success rate will decrease and the overall ball possession rate will decrease, Ajax's passes will be more sudden and changeable, which will create more threats to the opponent.

After understanding this, Ye Qiu will know where the team's improvement direction will be in the next stage.

…………

On August 18, 2002, Ajax welcomed Udrecht at Arena Stadium.

In the Eredivisie one day earlier than Ajax, Eindhoven and Feyenoord both defeated their opponents 2:0. Hiddink and Van Marvik obviously did not miss, but maintained a steady start.

Ye Qiu also sent all the main players to start in this game.

Goalkeeper Van der Sar, the defense line is Abidal, Kivo, Lucio and Macon, the three midfield players are Arteta, De Jong and Sneider, and the tridents in the front court are Robben, Ibrahimovic and Van der Fate.

The game still used the impactful style of Ajax in the past, and with the 5th minute, Robben's goal sounded the horn of Ajax's offense.

But it is obvious that after taking the lead, Ajax played more rhythmically.

After the team's overall front pressure, Arteta's possession of the ball about 30 meters outside the opponent's goal, and Sneider's cruising and running within the opponent's 30 meters area echoed each other, making Ajax's midfield organization very threatening.

Udrecht still maintained three lines at the beginning, using forward players to withdraw to harass Arteta, but over time, their tactics were somewhat reduced to implementing them. After all, they could not maintain such a pressure and pressing situation for a long time.

In the 31st minute, Arteta passed to Sneijder. After a quick emergency stop was taken away, the Dutch midfielder pushed the ball forward with his left foot. Ibrahimovic used his body to beat the Udrecht central defender and forced his body to break the opponent's defense line. He shot with his big foot in the front of the penalty area. The ball entered the net, 2:0!

After scoring two goals in a row, Ajax looked unstoppable. In the second half, he frequently threatened Udrecht's penalty area, but the latter's defense was organized in an orderly manner, blocking Ajax's offense outside the penalty area.

But in the 67th minute, Robben used his personal skills to force a breakthrough on the left, quickly cut into the penalty area, and picked the back point. Van der Fate kept up in time to make a shot, further expanding the score for Ajax, 3:0!

At this moment, Udrecht had completely lost the determination to resist stubbornly. Ye Qiuyan saw that the overall situation was decided and made substitution adjustments. Hunteral, who was substituted Ibrahimovic, scored in the 86th minute, finally locked the score at 4:0, which also won a big victory for Ajax's first round of the new season.

With a 4-0 victory at Arena Stadium, Ajax suddenly jumped to the top of the league standings.

On the next day, major newspapers in the Netherlands published reports on Ajax, believing that this Ajax team showed a very different tactical style from the Ajax team in the past, both before the season and in the first round of the league.

"In the past, Ajax started and flipped, and was very impactful, but lacked changes. But now, this Ajax team is obviously more changeable and sudden. They can play very quickly and create lightning offensives at the beginning, but they can also play very slowly, and follow you slowly to the feet and transfer the ball."

"If you think you can relax and be careless because of their slowness, you're wrong. Whether it's Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, or Juventus and Eindhoven, they are paralyzed by their slowness, because once they find a flaw, they often need to have a pass to completely tear your defense."

"Everyone once thought that losing Gilberto Silva and Sedo Keita would cause huge losses to Ajax's midfield and his strength would be weakened. However, judging from the current situation, Ye Qiu did not damage his team's strength. On the contrary, Arteta's joining makes this Ajax more changeable and threatening."

A week later, Ajax challenged Wits away.

It was still the attack after the opening, and Ajax knocked on Vites' goal in the 16th minute by Ibrahimovic.

This is also the Swedish center scored two consecutive league goals, and Ajax's offense performed very well.

After conceding the ball, Waiters played steadily at his home court, which caused Ajax a lot of trouble. Until the second half, with two goals from Macon and Kivo, Ajax defeated his opponent 3-0 away and won two consecutive wins in the Eredivisie.

It was also in this round that Hiddink's team finally managed to beat Groningen at their home court. In the 92nd minute, Voger scored a goal and won 3 points. However, Van Marvik's team was not so lucky. They were equalized by Roda JC twice while leading away, and finally tied 2:2.

Many media have criticized and doubted Van Marvik's fall, believing that Feyenoord will fall out of the championship team from now on, while Ajax and Eindhoven will continue to make great strides.

Sure enough, in the third round of the league, Feyenoord defeated his opponent 4:1 when he encountered the SBV elite of the Rotterdam team, while Eindhoven defeated Alkmar 4:0 away. Kezmann scored twice, and Hiddink's coaching against Eindhoven showed initial results.

But with the championship-winning opponents winning one after another, Ajax also did not fall behind. Ye Qiu's team challenged Groningen away, Van der Fate scored twice, and Robben and Lucio's goals helped Ajax defeat Groningen 4-1 away.

After this round of matches, Ajax and Eindhoven both won three consecutive victories. Ajax occupied the lead of the Eredivisie with his amazing data of scoring 11 goals in three games, while Hiddink's Eindhoven followed closely. It is worth noting that Eindhoven, who left Nikiforov this season, conceded 1 goal in the first three rounds of the league.

Feyenoord followed closely behind with two wins and one draw, ranking third in the Eredivisie, which is not surprising.

As many Dutch media speculated, although Hiddink took over this season, Ajax's performance was once again surprising, especially after leaving Gilberto Silva and Sedo Keita, Ye Qiu's team was not weakened at all, but instead improved his combat power and offensive ability.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Dutch Eredivisie championship this season will still be a battle between Ajax and Eindhoven. Van Marvik may still have a chance. Although the strength of this team is obviously not as competitive as Ajax and Eindhoven, if Van Marvik sticks to the Eredivisie with both Ajax and Eindhoven focusing on the European arena, then he may not have no chance!"

This is also the concern of many media people about Ajax, believing that Ye Qiu shouted out his ambition to plan for the Champions League too early, which would put pressure on the players. However, within Ajax, the players' ambitions shouting towards the head coach showed strong fighting spirit and **.

Ibrahimovic, Lucio, Robben, Van der Fate...

This group of players are the main players of the semi-finals of the Champions League last season. They continue to stay in Ajax, with only one goal, that is, to achieve better and more brilliant achievements than last season. If this cannot be achieved, how can Ajax keep them?

Ye Qiu's shouting may have put him in the forefront and become the target of many European media attacks, but it once again consolidated the unity within the team and inspired the players' fighting spirit and victory.

The three consecutive victories at the beginning of the Eredivisie are undoubtedly the best evidence!
Chapter completed!
