Chapter 156 The Confusing First Start

Jiang Mu arrived at the Dehout Stadium 40 minutes after the training started. The stadium is very old now. Although the workers who take care of the stadium are very responsible, there are still many problems. He must make preparations in advance to avoid delaying the training time .

Jiang Mu first squatted down to check the length of the turf to see if they needed watering; then he chatted with the workers guarding the equipment to see if the portable goals, red cones, and balls were ready.Let them put all the equipment on the designated place on the court; meet with the medical department at the end to confirm the physical condition of the players. Although the intelligent brain "Chang'e No. [-]" has thoroughly monitored the players, there may be accidents Injuries, so that players can get more targeted training arrangements.

After all this is done, if there is still time, Jiang Mu will sit on the chair arranged for the coach and like to browse the newspapers of the day to see what news happened, and wait for the players to arrive and sign in.

Today is the first time for Lucio and Ismail to train with the whole team, and it is also the first time that the team is full. When the players arrived one after another, some fans gathered outside the barbed wire. Of course, they were talking about the two New aid Lucio and Ismail, the two core players.Everyone wants to know if the two guards, who have cost the team more than $300 million, can help the goalkeeper keep the team in the door.

Lucio and Cesar came to the stadium together. Cesar is one year younger than Lucio, but in Alkmaar, he is the big brother, and now the two live together.

Because of language problems, Lucio has been with Cesar since he came to the stadium. Apart from nodding to the people who greeted him friendly, he did not communicate with other players.

Ismail, who is the head coach, is about the same age as Lucio, and he is only with Drogba. The two players who were born in Ligue [-] quickly established a friendship in Alkmaar. After coming to the Netherlands, Drogba helped him find a house close to him.

The most active players in the team are of course the local Dutch players. They laughed and played, talked about yesterday's life and news in the transfer market, and played with the fans from time to time.

Seeing the players standing in small groups, Jiang Mu frowned slightly. He didn't want all kinds of gangs to appear in the team. Determined to take some time to smack these little guys out of their gang mentality.

When the players and coaches were all present, Jiang Mu blew the assembly whistle, and the players immediately gave up warm-up activities and chatting, and quickly came to the coaches.

"Lucio, Ismail, come out." Jiang Mu pointed to the two new recruits hiding in the crowd. The new recruits were always nervous and reserved at first. They hoped to hide in the crowd to seek a sense of identity, but Jiang Mu wants them to eliminate this tension and restraint.

Lucio and Ismail stepped out and stood at the front of the line.

Jiang Mu pointed to Lucio and Ismail, and said to the players: "Let me introduce to you, many people may know their situation, but I still want to introduce to you, Lucio, Brazilian, from Brazil Ismail, a Frenchman, is from Crystal Palace. They are our future central defenders. I believe in their strength and can become your reliable partners. They are newcomers. You must actively communicate and contact them. , to help them get familiar with the team environment, now, everyone come up to shake hands and hug them, uh, rehearse how it feels when you score in advance.”

Jiang Mu's ginger-style humor at the end made the players couldn't help but smile.

Smile is the lubricant for people to communicate with each other. Except for the treacherous and evil people, few people have malicious intentions when they smile. When teammates with smiles shake hands and hug each other, the distance between everyone seems to disappear instantly. up.

After the players met, Jiang Mu arranged the training in the morning: "The morning is mainly restorative training. In the end, we will arrange one or two 20-minute confrontation games according to everyone's physical condition. I hope everyone will show some energy. As the saying goes It is said that you sweat more in normal times and bleed less in battles, but for me, if you don’t train hard in normal times, you have no chance to bleed on the field, okay, let’s start.”

After the training started, Jiang Mu told "Chang'e No. [-]" to focus on observing Lucio and Ismail, and to report to him their physical condition and how they cooperated with their new teammates so that he could make corrections at any time. The first game after the break is only four days away. He has to speed up the integration of Lucio, Ismail and the whole team, mainly the defense, so that they can adapt to their respective styles of play and characteristics.

After an hour of training, before the group confrontation, Lucio chelated Ismail and left a deep impression on his teammates and the coaching staff. The physical fitness of the two is very good. Ismail is 1.9 meters [-] meters tall , First-class header, strong body.And Lucio is even more perverted. He is not as tall as Ismail, but his jumping, explosive power and speed are all amazing. It is difficult for even forward players to match him in physical fitness. From the perspective of these basic skills, Lucio has the super skills of Brazilian players, and he is absolutely superhuman in the entire team.

Before and after the group confrontation, although Lucio and Ismail were unfamiliar with their teammates, and their substitute side was also scored four goals by their opponents, their performance was very eye-catching in the single-handed striker , basically maintained a winning rate of more than 80.00%, especially Lucio, with a figure of 1.8 meters [-], has a super ability to chase back, and none of the forwards is as fast as him, which opened the eyes of the fans. defender.Previously, the coaches were worried that the height of the back line was high and the speed was not enough. Now they are playing oppressive football, pressing down on the opponent, and poor recovery ability will be very dangerous. Now Lucio has dispelled the concerns of the coaching staff.

"Maybe Lucio can be transformed into a striker." Lin Nazhou said to Jiang Mu after the training.

"No, he won't have much promise if he becomes a striker, but on the back line, Lucio will surprise the opponents in offense. He is our guard with a knife." Jiang Mu laughed.

"Uh, guard with a knife, this word describes it well, maybe Lucio can break the deadlock." Lin Nazhou agreed with Jiang Mu's opinion.

Because neither England nor Brazil have a winter break, Lucio and Ismail have been playing with the team. In the morning training, Jiang Mu is very satisfied with their state. It can be said that the two of them are the best in the team. Jump into the game anytime.So in the afternoon, Jiang Mu reduced their physical training, gave them a little treatment, personally led them to adapt to his own tactics, understood his own philosophy, emphasized active defense and one kick, and let them actively participate in the offense. Among them, learn to observe the overall situation, initiate and organize attacks, instead of just knowing defense.

After the training in the afternoon, Jiang Mu made a brief summary and outlook for the future to the disciples and the two newcomers who returned from vacation:

"...From now on, we have already started to fight, the game will start soon, I hope you forget the previous 19 consecutive victories, forget the 3 consecutive victories of the Dutch Cup, after the winter break is a new start .

We now have only two possibilities: move on, or stand still.There are two results, win the championship, or not win the championship.It's all up to us, I will do what I can, the first is the quality of my work, both as individuals and as a team, you will all improve.The second is trust and honesty. My office door will always be open to any Alkmaar player. I will trust and be honest with you 100%. No matter what decisions the coach and the club have to make about the players, you will be the first An insider, I myself am the one who informed you.

And what you have to do is to be disciplined, ambitious, full of fighting spirit, and win all the games we can win.By the end of the season, I hope we can celebrate the championship with the fans in the Town Hall Square. Next year, my goal is the Eredivisie championship and the European championship. "

Jiang Mu's words drew rounds of applause from the players and coaches, because Jiang Mu didn't just talk about it, he did it. Like the original Van Dijk's coaching staff and trusted disciples, they can still be under Jiang Mu's hands. As the main force, Jiang Mu also fully trusts them, and the current results also prove that Jiang Mu's saying that the goal is to win the Champions League is not entirely bragging, at least it has a certain degree of credibility.

There are only four days before the game. Of course, in four days, it is impossible for Lucio and Ismail to integrate into the team and form a tacit understanding with their teammates. The cooperation between defenders is more demanding than that of the frontcourt, which requires long-term games and training. It can be achieved, so the combination of guards is generally not easy to change and break. Even though Jiang Mu made a large-scale rotation of the lineup in the first half, the guard line did not move. This is also an important reason for the injuries of Martens and Morris.

Although there is not much that can be done before the game against Ajax, many ideas among high-level players are interlinked. Appeared in the game.

As the game approached, Lucio and Ismail began to appear frequently in newspapers, radio and television screens.Many commentators, reporters, retired players, and those who are "related" to the stadium have speculated about how Jiang Mu will arrange the key position of the central defender in this game against Ajax. Are they at the same time, or just one?Is it a starter or a substitute?Which one will go first?If they play, can they withstand the impact of the Eredivisie giants Ajax?

Although Ajax has experienced great changes during the winter break, the De Boer brothers have left, and Litmanning is also determined to leave next season, but the Finn's professionalism and affection for Ajax will make him more Try your best, besides, there are Avilazze, Babangida, Dani and other masters on the front line. No matter which central defender combination Alkmaar uses, it will be a great test for them in the game.

The outside world guessed that Jiang Mu didn't have an accurate statement. He was ambiguous about the appearance of Lucio and Ismail. He only said that it was possible and decided according to training. In addition, Hofs and Enke often appeared in the main force during training. The lineup made the media even more unpredictable.

Not only the media, but even the famous Danish coach Olsen didn't know what cards Jiang Mu would play, because this guy has always been unreliable, he can only focus on me, and don't care what Jiang Mu does.
