Chapter 494 Youth training is a technical activity

-lJapan-lJapan

"Come in"

Yang Huan sat behind the desk, looked up and saw Martin Hunter open the door and come in.

This middle-aged British man looks much older than two years ago, which shows that the pressure on the first team is indeed quite high.

It's also considered a fate. Martin Hunter came from Bradford shortly before Yang Huan acquired Southampton.

In the past two years, in addition to helping Bielsa in the first team, he is also responsible for the operation of the Saints Youth Camp.

Southampton's youth training camp has emerged in a large number of talents. Although the team is poaching outstanding talents from all over the European continent, the concerted efforts of Martin Hunter, Grifa and Madoni cannot be ignored.

It took them two years to build Southampton's youth training camp, which is not inferior to the top youth training camps of other teams on the European continent. Whether it is technical and tactical style or the meticulous craftsmanship of players, Southampton has its own unique features.

This has also created Southampton Youth Training and its status and influence in the entire English football world.

Even surpassed the Red Devils Manchester United

"Master Huan, are you looking for me?" After entering the door, Martin Hunter smiled at Long Wu, who was sitting in the corner playing games, and walked directly to Yang Huan's desk.

"Sit" Yang Huan smiled and pointed to the opposite side, "Is the first team busy with work?"

As he asked, he stood up.

Seeing that Martin Hunter was about to stand up, Yang laughed and signaled him to sit, while he walked to the corner to make tea.

"It's okay, but the team's performance has not been very ideal recently, and the pressure is quite high. Marcelo has lived in the training base in the past few days." When talking about Argentine madman, Martin Hunter looked admiration.

When it comes to this persistence in football, Belsa is unparalleled in the world.

Yang Huan made two cups of tea, walked back, put one cup in front of him, and took a sip of it.

"I don't pay much attention to the team's performance. I believe in Marcelo's coaching ability."

Martin Hente said: "Yes, the team's performance is not too bad, especially for a newly promoted team, but the media, fans and the team themselves may have too high expectations for the performance, which leads to a huge gap now."

Yang Huan smiled and said, "Normal, we are a team that has pursuits."

Martin Hunter also smiled, "If it weren't for the influence of the Olympics and national team games, we could win at least two or three more games than we are now, and then our ranking would be quite high."

To be honest, Southampton is definitely the number one disaster player in the London Olympics. Ten players were transferred to the Olympics, and there was almost no available player on the whole right. How could Bielsa use his troops?

If you can win two more games and six more league points, you will be ranked very high now. If you win three more games, you will be ranked directly in the top four in the league.

"Don't worry, I can understand these things, I believe you," Yang Huan said with a smile.

Martin Henter, but he was surprised in his heart. Master Huan called me here for no reason, just to ask about the team, right?

You know, on weekdays, Young Master Huan understands the team directly through Bielsa, so why do you have to beat around the bush now?

"Martin, you've been on the team for two years, have you?" Yang Huan sat back on his seat.

"Well, it's a little earlier than Master Huan." Martin Hunter replied.

"In the past two years, you have done a great job with us. We all think that you have a lot of experience in youth training, such as the three youth training concepts you have summarized."

Martin Hunter smiled slightly, wondering what Mr. Huan mentioned this meant.

But when he mentioned three youth training concepts, he felt a little complacent.

He proposed three points that must be done in the Saints Youth Camp.

Sweat on the field, smile on the ground, learn from it, this is the successful youth training

If you want to use Yang Huan's words, it's Milu's happy football.

It is really rare to have such experience in English football.

These days, English youth training is either stereotyped or barbaric, or Yu Qian has no idea what he wants.

But these three ideas in Southampton prove to be quite helpful to youth training.

After all, the most important thing in cultivating players, especially young players under the age of ten, is to cultivate their interest in football.

That's what they have to have fun from football and smile from the heart.

"Young Master Huan, this is not my credit alone. Grifa and Madoni have brought us the essence of Argentina youth training in South America, allowing us to see the uniqueness of their skills and methods in cultivating players."

Yang Huan nodded constantly. As youth training consultants and chief scouts, their contribution to Southampton is also quite obvious, especially in youth training and young players training.

"Also, our youth training director Rice Reed, is also well-known in England. In addition, our youth training school leader Matt Crocker, his role is also crucial. It is precisely because of our joint efforts that the Saints' youth training began to get on track."

To be honest, after two years of investment, the Saints' youth training has already been on the right track.

Unless Yang Huan's head cramps and destroys the city walls themselves, Southampton's youth training is a endless treasure house and an inexhaustible gold mine

Of course, every year, we still have to continue to invest in innovating and upgrading software and hardware, and searching for small beets and outstanding talents everywhere.

Yang Huan smiled faintly and said nothing.

Although Martin Hunter is a little modest, as the top leader of the youth training, the Saints youth training has developed so quickly that he has made great contributions.

Everyone sees this credit and cannot escape it.

"Have you heard of the reform plan in England's youth training丨?" Yang Huan asked.

"Glorious Revolution?"

"To" Yang Huan nodded, "According to this plan, St. George will become England's Clay Fontaine. In the next few years, the whole of England will drive a full-scale youth training reform from the top leagues to the community amateur leagues."

"This is a good thing"

Yang Huan smiled and said: "It's a good thing, but it's always impossible to make a living by relying solely on the English Football Team. This time, it will be a mixed team, responsible for formulating and promoting youth training reform plans, and both the FA and the Premier League will arrange personnel to join St. George."

When Martin Hunter heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

"Young Master Huan, Youth Training丨is never something that one person can accomplish. It is a complete system project that requires the joint efforts of many people to complete. A mixed team alone cannot do anything."

"It's right, so everyone in this mixed team must not only be a youth training expert who understands and is familiar with the English football environment, but also they will be fully responsible for the entire Glorious Revolution's youth training reform plan."

Speaking of this, Yang Huan smiled slightly and said: "Preliminary estimates that starting from 2013, the annual budget of the Glorious Revolution Plan will be as high as nearly 100 million pounds. If the professional club invests in software and hardware in youth training, the amount involved in this plan will be even higher."

Just kidding, the annual Premier League broadcast rights revenue is deducted from 7788 expenses and 5% of the expenses, and invested in youth training丨Some of which are invested by clubs丨And some are operated through the Glorious Revolutionary Plan Group to improve the entire English youth training丨Especially community youth training丨

Martin Hunter was stunned when he heard it, "One hundred million?"

"Yang Huan nodded, "So, everyone attaches great importance to this team, and there are only four candidates that have been confirmed."

"who?"

"Dave Reading, chairman of the London Olympic Organizing Committee, has been very satisfied with his work on the Olympic Organizing Committee, especially in terms of coordination and resource mobilization, so David Bernstein strongly recommends him to the team."

Martin Hente Head and Dave Reading did a great job during the preparations for the London Olympics.

“There are two more people who have been working on promoting and improving the low-level league system, Nick Levitt and Roger Davis, who are both experts who are quite familiar with and understand the English middle-level league system and environment.”

Martin Hunter has also heard of them, and this plan does require them to be responsible.

"What about one more?"

"Currently, former England international Southgate, head of the FA Development Department"

"It's him" Martin Hunter also felt that it was OK.

"Nick Levitt and Roger Davis are both from the FA Development Department. They have cooperated with Southgate to issue an initiative to reform the youth training. Now they are proposing a glorious revolution, and they are involved, it is normal."

Yang Huan smiled and nodded, "You are right at all, but there are still many things missing."

"What?"

Yang Huan asked with a smile instead, "Do you think, only them, do you know how to reform?"

Martin Hunter was really stunned at this moment.

Yes, there is no need to mention Dave Reading's ability to do business, but when it comes to youth training, he is a layman.

Although some of Southgate, Nick Levitt and Roger Davis are professional players and some are familiar with the league environment, youth training is a technical job. Can they get it?

If someone who is not familiar with the knowledge takes the lead, what will they do toss this plan?

"This time it's a long-term plan, and everyone has made up their minds to stick to it for a long time, so the people in this team are basically young, so there is no need for the elderly including Howard Wilkinson and Eric Harrison."

Martin Hunter frowned when he heard it, "Including Rice Reed?"

The youth training in Southampton丨The supervisor was originally a technical development consultant at the FA, including world-class stars such as Gerald, Lampard and Rooney.

What is even more commendable is that Rice Reed is one of the few English football players who value technical youth training and has considerable abilities in sports medicine, technical training and scouting.

Rice Reed joined the team almost at the same time as Martin Hunter, but Martin Hunter was later favored by Yang Huan and promoted to the first team to serve as Bielsa's assistant, and had a relatively high status.

But when it comes to respect, Les Reed didn't say that, he deserves the best.

Not to mention the farthest, just say the closer ones.

Not long ago, after Saint George was officially launched, the FA hosted an exchange meeting and invited youth training experts including Barcelona to hold a discussion.

Three local youth training experts in Southampton, Martin Hunter, Matt Crocker and Rice Reed, were all present, and during the exchange, the youth training experts in Barcelona were speechless.

The reason is very simple. Southampton's youth training model focuses more on flexibility, creativity and cultivating children's interests.

Relatively speaking, Barcelona's youth training is very rigorous, but also quite rigid, almost treating young players as workers on the assembly line, requiring them to abide by tactical rules such as No. 3 to No. 6 and No. 6 to No. 7.

It was after this exchange meeting that Barcelona's youth training experts expressed their hope to find an opportunity to visit the Steputwood training base in Southampton to communicate and learn, and at the same time they would call on the Southampton youth team to visit Barcelona.

This also made Saints Youth Camp famous again in the football circle

Yang Huan looked at Martin Hunter with a smile and said something that almost made this middle-aged Englishman fall.

“At the London Summit, I recommend you to be responsible for this program”
