Chapter five hundred and twelve find myself

When the national team was concentrated, Jose was not idle either. Although nearly half of the players left in the first team and training could only be filled with some players from the second team, Jose just happened to solve the personal problems of some players.

The young players drawn from the second team this time include David Silva, Negredo, Pedro Leon, Xavi Martinez and others. The largest of these players is the 19-year-old Negredo, and the youngest is the 16-year-old Xavi Martinez. They are all important candidates for Mallorca's local strategy.

Among these players, Negredo and Pedro Leon's potential may seem average, but Silva and Martinez are both players that Jose values ​​very much. Silva's technical characteristics are quite in line with his personal ability and Mallorca's current offensive style. It can be seen from the fact that Silva is still in the water in the national team full of Real Madrid and Barcelona players in later generations that he is consistent with these blowout Spanish players. It is not difficult to train such players. Let it be natural to give him an environment where technology can be used. He will be like an awl in his pocket and will stand out sooner or later.

Xavi Mathias is a versatile player in the midfield and backcourt. He can perform well in both midfielders, central defenders, and central defenders. Such a player also needs to give him a suitable environment, and he will naturally grow up.

So for these young people, Jose wants to give them a chance, so they are not the focus of this training camp. In this training camp, Jose focuses on coaching the players that he is already extremely depressed.

It’s almost done for young people to hold on for a month or two. If you keep holding on, you may get a problem, and Van Persie’s temper is not that good.

After the overall training of the day, Jose assigned a separate training task and then pulled Van Persie aside.

Seeing Jose's move, the young players in Mallorca were a little envious. Jose often did the same thing as having a small meal alone. The players who were given a small meal will often develop well. It is no wonder that the young players would envy...

"Robin, how are you doing during this period?" Jose patted Van Persie on the shoulder, then took the lead in sitting down on the lawn, and then signaled Van Persie to sit down as well.

Van Persie sat obediently across from him, and then replied in a muffled voice: "Not really."

"Are you still having a headache?" Jose asked.

"Yes..." Van Persie answered a little discouragedly, because he thought about this question for a long time but didn't expect it. This made Van Persie, who had always claimed to be very smart, feel that he could not keep up with Jose's thinking.

"Okay, I didn't expect it to cause you such a big trouble." Jose sighed and said, "Now let's talk about your technical characteristics... You are tall, but relatively thin, and your speed is not particularly fast, so although you are not short, you are more on the side or in the back... Is that true?"

"Yes." Van Persie was excited and replied.

"That is, you are a technical player, right?"

Van Persie nodded. Technology has always been a part of his pride. It is precisely because of his excellent skills that he joined Feyenoord's first team so early and won the title of Dutch Youth Player of the Year.

"Very good, now we can determine the general direction of your future development." Jose nodded and smiled, "Increase your technical ability and strengthen your own quality, so that your chances of injury will be reduced. This is the general direction - I told you before that you need to strengthen your own quality in training, reduce the possibility of injury, and protect your body more. However, this is just the general direction. If a player wants to grow rapidly, he must increase the place he is best at to the limit when he makes the fastest progress. A person's potential is limited, and growth at this time can often determine the height a player can reach in the future. There are many small aspects in the technical link. We have to find out the link where you can reach a certain level... Is it an extraordinary? Organization? Pass? Or shot? No one can accurately find the place he is best at, and to some extent, he can only try his luck. So I want you to think about this question yourself and make the probability of success higher."

Only then did Van Persie realize it suddenly.

"I have always believed in not to encourage young players. Although they are young and have unlimited development potential, they have no experience to protect themselves and are prone to go to the wrong path. Whether it is a biased development direction or a premature game, it is easy to have a greater impact on their future development. So even when I was trying to substitute people on the forward line during this period, I have never considered you. I just wanted to give you more space so that you don't have more pressure." Jose continued.

"I never doubted this, boss." Van Persie said sincerely to Jose: "Because I know how you treated those young players before... so my annoyance during this period was just because I couldn't think of the answer to that question. Now... I think I have the right way to think about it."

"Tell me what you like to do most in the game." Jose paused and then prompted: "Is it a cross after quickly breaking through the opponent's defense on the wing, or a beautiful straight pass at the front of the penalty area, or a pass from the opponent's defense through running position and receive a pass from his teammate to shoot the ball into the empty goal... Breakthrough, assist, and goal, which one can bring you more pleasure?"

When Van Persie heard Jose's words, he felt a little embarrassed because when it came to pleasure, he felt like a pervert was discussing something...

But after all, he could understand what Jose meant - the game was also an emotional catharsis, a hobby experience, and the players also had their own preferences. What actions they completed on the court can make people feel more satisfied often explain what the player is best at.

When Van Persie was in the Netherlands, he always served as a second striker or a winger. In this position, he naturally had to pass the ball better than a shot. However, according to Van Persie's personal feeling, what he liked the most was the feeling of refreshing after scoring, and it was not a simple goal, but...

"I prefer to score goals." Van Persie said frankly to Jose.

Jose laughed, then he held his hand on the lawn, then stood up and waved to Van Persie: "Then let's see what kind of goals you prefer."

Jose brought Van Persia to the goal on the side of the training ground, then reached out and called David Silva and Pedro Leon: "David, Pedro, come and do me a favor."

Silva and Leon immediately ran over happily. Jose asked them to cross continuously on both sides of the court, using various methods, but there was no requirement for Van Persie. The only requirement was to shoot in various ways after receiving the ball, no matter whether you stopped or shot directly, anyway, you would do whatever you feel comfortable...

This situation also attracted the attention of other players. Silva and Leon on both sides kept passing the ball into the penalty area in various ways, while Van Persie began to use various methods to get the ball into the goal, using this method to find out his favorite way of scoring...

Soon, Van Persie began to gradually find his favorite feeling - especially when Leon's cross was in the first place, and he pulled back and then swung his calf to shoot the ball out as soon as possible. The feeling of thrillingness was even more obvious!

"Beautiful shot!" There was a cheer sound from the sidelines. Mallorca's players all slapped. Van Persie's shot was indeed beautiful. He retreated and turned around and swung his calf to complete a volley. The difficulty of this shot was that he completed it while retreating. At the same time, due to time issues, he had no room to swing his right foot and exerted force. He completed the volley just by exerting force in the calf. In the end, the volley drew an arc in the air and flew into the dead corner of the goal!

"See it, Robin, this is where you are best at!"

Jose shouted loudly: "There are many great shooters in this world, but not everyone can have this ability to exert force instantly... This is the link you need to strengthen next! After receiving the ball from various angles and places on the court, you can complete the volleyball goal as soon as possible, and you will become one of the top scorers in the world! Not every shooter needs to break through and complete the shot by himself. Just by running and touching the ball at the first time, you have the ability to score thirty league goals in one season!"

As soon as Jose shouted, most of the Mallorca players were surprised. After joining, Van Persie had not played in the official game for even one minute. Everyone thought that Jose would let him train in the second team for a year before talking about it. Just like Sissoko last season, this is actually a kind of emphasis of Jose, but how many people know that Jose actually has such a high evaluation of Van Persie?

However, after watching a series of shots just now, the players have to admit that Van Persie does have an extraordinary level in this regard. Most people start from their thighs to shoot, and only with the space for the wheels and legs will be more powerful. However, most of Van Persie's shots are quite powerful just by exerting force in the calf. This can only be said that he has talent in this area, which is something that others cannot envy.

Van Persie was also full of joy. If he had just felt a little vaguely before, then through this time, he had enough confidence in his shooting ability and also understood the direction of his development.

After doing all this, Jose pulled Van Persie and sat down again.

"If people thought you could only serve as an auxiliary attacker, then I will tell you that they were wrong. You can be a shooter, an alternative goal-scoring shooter, run on the field, step forward, grab points, and then complete the shot... If you want to do this, you have to increase your awareness of the game and your familiarity with your teammates. We have to play many games this season, so you can participate in. Before, I was trying to make the new forward team more tacit, and in the next game I will give you the following game.

You have more opportunities. Don’t be anxious. Everything needs to be taken slowly. When on the bench, observe your teammates’ running and habits, so that you can get passes more easily in the game. And don’t let down your ability to get the ball and pass the ball. Mallorca plays the overall offense and also requires you to show your abilities in the midfield. In short, I bought you Mallorca because you will be of a lot of help to us. Don’t think too much about other things. It’s useless to think too much, but it will only add to your worries.”

"I know, boss." Van Persie nodded vigorously. At this moment, he was full of confidence and expectations for the future, because he had found his way forward and also found his position in the team!

This is very important.
