Chapter 271

People who have never experienced it will never understand how much pressure is to remain undefeated for a long time.

Everyone, no matter who he is, a good person or a bad person, open-minded or introverted, retains a complex in his heart that does not want to let those who support him and affirm himself be disappointed, and this complex will often turn into an invisible pressure in the game.

As a professional player and a professional coach, the moment you enter the professional arena, you are in such pressure, because you are thinking all the time, thousands of fans are watching you, media and fans all over the world are paying attention to you, you can't let them down, you must do your best to win the game.

The pressure is so great that many players who are talented in the youth team in the amateur league will collapse when they arrive in the professional arena.

When you win a game, fans want you to win the second game. When you win the second game, they want you to win the third game. And so on. Over time, the pressure accumulates over time. When you can remain unbeaten in a season, every time you step on the court, your biggest enemy is no longer your opponent, but the pressure you bear.

Ye Qiu understands this very well. As Chelsea's unbeaten record continues, the coaching staff's psychologist lineup has quickly expanded from the original individual to 5, and the number of physiotherapists and masseuses has expanded to 10, which is almost very rare in the entire Premier League and even the European League.

Ye Qiu uses such a huge professional team to maintain the psychological and physical qualities of Chelsea first-team players, because he knows very well that for Chelsea, the team's strength no longer needs to be doubted. It can remain unbeaten so far, who dares to say that Chelsea is not strong?

For Chelsea today, the biggest enemy is psychological pressure and physical fitness.

Every morning and evening, Ye Qiu must get the first report on medical, physical therapy and psychology led by Peter Brandt. There will be a detailed analysis and evaluation of the psychological and physical fitness of each player. Then Ye Qiu uses this as a reference to arrange the team's training and competition list.

With the arrival of the intensive schedule in the second half of the league, the daily training of many players including Lampard, Ronaldinho and others is no longer important. The most important thing is physical recovery and conditioning. Therefore, after playing against Wolves, Chelsea got a week off, and Ye Qiu gave them two days off.

After the main lineup returned to the team, the training events carried out were mainly restored and adjusted.

In the middle of the week, the news that Arsenal lost to Manchester United at home in the FA Cup semi-finals came, and everyone was excited, but many people also noticed some warning effects, that is, Arsenal has begun to have psychological problems due to huge pressure and intensive schedules.

This is like a person's temper. When you are rational, you tell yourself not to get angry, so you can control your anger. But when you are angry, can you still remain sober and rational?

On the second day of the FA Cup semi-finals, when everyone returned to the locker room after training, they noticed a list of rosters posted at the door of the locker room. Ye Qiu announced in advance the list of rosters to play Tottenham Hotspur away on Saturday, and several players including Ronaldinho, Davis, Deco, Cannavaro did not appear in this roster.

This makes the players feel the tension of a war coming.

When I was in Amsterdam, I walked in DeTok Most every evening after the training class, and I would definitely see Chairman Michael Van Prager, who said he liked walking in the deserted DeTok Most.

Perhaps it was because he had been in Ajax for four years and was so used to all this that there were many times when Ye Qiu walked at the Harrington training base. He was thinking about Van Prag and Bobby Hams. But in fact, Ajax was getting farther and farther away from him, and many things passed by and could never go back.

Although it was only a year since leaving Ajax, with Ye Qiu's current status, there was no reason to go back to Ajax. This was not only because of his influence, but also because of his striking high salary, but also because the Netherlands has nothing he pursues.

Everyone lives for the purpose, and living aimlessly is a waste of life.

When he was a fan, Ye Qiu's views on stars were obviously different from now. In the past, he thought that whoever is famous was awesome and powerful, and he always hoped to win the best in the world. But now he felt that when dealing with a star, he only needed to pay attention to his football.

To be honest, as a head coach, he deeply understands the various problems brought about by high informatization, and excessive commercialization is constantly affecting football and superstars. This honor is constantly flooding. It seems that a person who performs better can be named a superstar by the media.

This is reality. Ye Qiu can't change it, he can only accept and get used to it, but he has his own scale.

Whether it is a player or a coach, he can only conquer fans by his performance on the court. Just like Beckham in his previous life, Ye Qiu believes that many fans had doubted him before, but after watching his performance in Capello's season coaching Real Madrid, he completely changed his mind.

He still remembers that many fans in his previous life liked to compare Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and many times the two gangs would even argue over this topic. However, no matter how much evidence they came up with each other, they could not convince each other. The reason was very simple, because there was no comparison.

The reason why football is interesting and fascinating is that it has different understandings and preferences for everyone.

Some people like defense, some people like offense, some people like creativity, some people like stability, some people like passion, and some people like elegance. Who can compare these? Who can provide a comparison ruler?

In fact, as the head coach, Ye Qiucai deeply realized that whether it is a talented genius or an ordinary player with poor talent, they are actually doing the same thing on the football field, that is, to show themselves and break through themselves.

To put it more deeply, all competitive events are for this purpose

Ronaldinho is very talented, but in the year he came to Chelsea, he was very hard-working in training and was very self-disciplined off the court because he wanted to use the platform of Chelsea and the Premier League to show his strength and make further breakthroughs to pursue his dream of becoming a superstar in the world.

Lampard is not as talented as Ronaldinho, but he also worked hard. When he went to the football field, he was like a perpetual motion machine, running and chasing him constantly, and could not stop for a moment, because his purpose was to show himself and break through himself.

In the so-called professional football, money is indeed very important, because without money, players even have problems in their lives. But Ye Qiu believes that money is definitely not the most important thing in the heart of any professional player who pursues and has a purpose. Therefore, there are so many players who will cut their salaries for the transfer every year, or even pay out of their own pockets.

Many things in this world have changed, but many things still remain the same, but no one has the patience to discover and dig them.

Ye Qiu understood a little why Van Prager liked to walk slowly in De Tok Most, because this would allow his impetuous heart to calm down, make himself calm and rational by the world changed by the media and information, and become more patient, think of some things that he could not think of, and see some corners that he could not see normally.

Standing outside the training ground, Ye Qiu noticed that there were three people in the training ground.

The tall Robert Hutt was defending the thin and short Messi, and Fabregas was responsible for passing the ball behind them. Then the short Argentine boy called out the oxtail, or Marseille whirlpooling, and trying to pass Robert Hutt was like calling for a killer trick in video games.

Ye Qiu stood on the sidelines and looked at them playing with laughter. He felt that although it was a play, it actually had profound meaning.

It seems that many media in the outside world criticize Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo, believing that he often fakes his falls, sticks too much to the ball, likes to show himself, etc., but there is one thing that cannot be changed, that is, the Portuguese young player is the most diligent in Manchester United's team, whether in training or training.

Perhaps, everyone represents unfairness from birth, but the world will reflect his fairness from various other aspects, but some people believe it, while others do not.

"Do you know why you use a oxtail and a Marseille swing, but the effect is not ideal?"

When these three people were tired of playing, Ye Qiu walked into the training ground with a smile on his face, because everyone knew that outside of training and competition, Ye Qiu was actually a person who was easy to get along with.

The three little ghosts "Head" became serious.

"Relax, the training has ended now. You can stop treating me as your head coach and as your friend," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Messi and Fabregas and Robert Hutter looked at each other and nodded.

"Actually, every player has his own characteristics and his own rhythm," said Ye Qiu, "Do you know boxing?"

"Know" Robert Hutter seems to like boxing quite a bit.

Ye Qiu smiled, "As a boxer, do you know what is the most important thing?"

The three of them obviously failed to answer this question, and they were all thinking, but there was no answer.

"Rhythm" Ye Qiu said, "When the boxer walks onto the stage, if he wants to defeat his opponent, the most important thing is not to use various skills and strengths, which are auxiliary means. The most important thing for him is to incorporate his opponent into his own rhythm."

"I am faster than you. If you follow me, you will continue to show flaws. I am slower than you. Once you slow down, the threat will be much smaller. The combination of the pace, habits and other factors of each boxer will lead to the different rhythms they are good at. Do you understand what I mean?"

Fabregas looked like the one with the most insightful understanding among this group. He reacted and nodded, "Head, what do you mean is, don't blindly learn and follow others. The most important thing is to find and develop your own habits and rhythm?"

"Yes" Ye Qiu praised.

"Then why do you keep asking us to observe and learn other people's playing habits and skills?" Messi didn't understand much.

Ye Qiu smiled and thought for a while, "Because you are like a blank piece of paper now, and you don't know anything, how can you develop your own rhythm and habits? Only when you understand more, contact more, and learn more, then extract what is suitable for you from various habits and techniques, so that you can develop your own habits and rhythms."

"I understand," Fabregas suddenly realized, "When we were in Barcelona, ​​our coach often asked us to watch videos and took us to watch football games on site, all to increase our knowledge and experience in these aspects."

"Yes" Ye Qiu felt that the Spanish boy was indeed very knowledgeable, "but he should focus on learning and applying it well, rather than memorizing it by rote."

After hearing this, Messi immediately realized that the series of killing skills he had just called was actually rote memorization.

"It's like Leo, you see Ronaldinho playing with oxtails so well, but have you ever thought about how tall he is, how long his legs, what kind of muscle strength and force habits are? And your height and leg length are obviously different from him, which leads to your pace, pace frequency and speed. So if he is suitable for oxtails, you may not necessarily. You should learn, but not learn this technique, but learn the consciousness behind his extraordinary oxtails."

"Consciousness?" Messi was a little confused again.

"Is that a feeling good?" Ye Qiu couldn't explain, "It's like the moment you got the ball, you already had an idea of ​​how to pass the opponent after getting the ball. I always felt that the most important thing for you at this stage is to cultivate your sense of playing football."

The so-called sense of football can actually be regarded as an application of football skills.

For rookies like Messi, Fabregas, and even Robert Hutter, the skills of playing football are solid enough and there is definitely no problem. The key is how to use it and what skills to use in what environment. This requires them to develop a kind of thinking, that is, the awareness of playing football.

There is no division between amateurs and professions, no division between South America and Europe. All the football skills are the most basic technical movements. Even the cumbersome skills are all composed of these movements. But why are some people geniuses and superstars, while others cannot play in professional leagues at all?

Also, why do some players become famous early, while others are late for great success?

Does that mean that late-achieving players have poor talent?

You should know that from the age of 13 or 14, what really determines the player's progress is no longer some basic skills. Those have been formed and fixed. What determines the player's achievements is their use of these skills.

The reason why some players are late for a long time is that apart from the problem of misalignment on the court, a very important factor is consciousness.

In my early years, I couldn't find the best method for me to use these skills. Then, as I accumulated experience, I kept exploring, and slowly found my own set of methods and shining, which made them late for a long time.

In Ye Qiu's view, there are many reasons why players are late for achieving success. One's own understanding is part of it, but one's insight is also part of it.

Premature aging is the opposite of late success, but what determines both is the use of football skills.

Ye Qiu now lets Messi and Fabregasdo learn the playing habits and awareness of Ronaldinho, Deco, Lampard, Davis and others, which is actually to help them increase their own knowledge and accumulate more experience so that they can find their own path in the future.

It's like you are going to a place, and there are many different roads. You have to find one that is most suitable for you to walk on. The premise is that you have to be familiar with these roads first, and you have to know how these roads are taken to know which one is most suitable for you.

Of course, you can choose to take a taxi and let the taxi take you to the destination, but the road that the taxi driver takes is the taxi driver's road, which may not be suitable for you. On the contrary, you may take the same road because the taxi driver takes you once, and then you will take the same road every time, and you will never find the road that suits you most because you are unfamiliar with other roads.

Ye Qiu said so much to Messi and Fabregas, but in fact he wanted to tell them a truth. There is no need to limit himself or his thinking logic, nor do he think about who he wants to learn or who he wants to imitate. Instead, he should let go of his arms, observe and learn about everyone's strengths and understand their shortcomings, so that he can get the essence and remove the dross.

Ye Qiu stayed in Ajax for four years, but it was not in vain, especially with Bobby Hams, which allowed Ye Qiu to learn a lot. At least he is now facing young rookies like Messi and Fabregas, and he can talk freely and point them out a way.

Many times, young players need more than just opportunities, but also someone who can point them in a direction.

The difference in understanding is really obvious. Ye Qiu said so much patiently. Fabregas has a high understanding and obviously understands it. Messi's understanding is also excellent. Both of them look very rewarding. On the contrary, Robert Hut from Germany, this tall man still looks frowning, as if he is listening to the heavenly books.

Ye Qiu asked himself that he had already expressed his thoughts in the most in-depth and easy-to-understand language. If he still couldn't understand this, then he really had no choice. Could it be that he would repeat his remarks a hundred times in front of Robert Hutter every day?

Besides, you have to rely on yourself to understand this kind of thing. If you understand it, you understand it. If you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it. You can’t even pretend and you can’t learn it.

After saying so much, it was getting dark. Ye Qiu rushed home to have dinner and said goodbye to the three little ghosts. At the same time, he told them to go back early. Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a word for them, which would probably make them unable to sleep tonight.
