Chapter 659 This Is Punishment!

"Hey, run, run, run, go, go, go!"

In Southampton's Stapletwood training ground, Luis Borrini's loud voice was habitually played.

After playing three rounds in the Premier League, it entered a two-week national team match day.

Although Southampton is an upstart in the Premier League, there are not a lot of international players in the team, and all of them are the main core players of the national team.

There are two goalkeepers in the team. Neuer is the undisputed No. 1 goalkeeper of Germany. Although Cesar is Neuer's substitute in Southampton, he still firmly holds the No. 1 goal of the Brazilian national team.

The No. 1 national team of the two world's top teams actually competed for the main goalkeeper position in Southampton, which directly made a large number of European teams envious and jealous, but no one was willing to poach corners.

Cesar is old and no one cares about him, and Neuer is the captain of Southampton, who can dig it?

On the defense line, Harvey Martinez is already a frequent visitor to the Spanish national team, Varane is the unshakable main force of the French national team, and Nastasic is also the backbone of Serbia's defense.

Only Laporte, as the core player of the French National Youth Team, was just transferred to the European Youth Championship in July, so he stayed in the team for the time being and continued to train without the national team competition task.

On the contrary, there are fewer full-backs. Azpilicueta has no place in the Spanish national team. Neither Danilo nor Alex Sandro was selected for the Brazilian national team. Only David Alaba has a national team game task. .

But the midfielder is the hardest-hit area of ​​​​the national team. Pogba, Toni Kroos, Modric, Matic, James Rodriguez and Kovacic all went to participate in the national team game. In the end There is only one card left in the team.

The same is true for the frontcourt, Suarez, Ibrahimovic, Drogba, Sturridge, Hazard, Ravel Morrison and Sanchez, etc., all went to participate in the national team game .

As a result, the entire Stapletwood first team was almost emptied.

Therefore, in order to maintain the usual training, Bielsa had to transfer a group of young players from the youth team to the first team to train with the players who stayed in the first team.

At this moment, on the training ground, Luis Borini is leading this group of mixed players for training.

Although it is a mixed combination, the training volume still maintains the original intensity,

Not at all relaxed.

Luis Borini's loud voice even yelled frequently on the training ground.

"Hey, Yuri, watch your position, position, position!"

"Patrick, pass him, be brave, pass him one-on-one, you have the ability!"

"And you, Adnan, look up, I've told you many times, look up and watch!"

"Tien, don't be too sticky, you are a central defender, not a midfielder!"

...

Yang Huan just arrived at Stapletwood after signing Oscars with Joorabchian and Bertolucci at St. Mary's Stadium. He happened to hear Luis Borrini shouting loudly, so he came to training courtside.

"Hey, they're all young people!" Yang Huan looked at happily.

Don't look at this group of young people in Southampton who are not very old, but they have a lot of work under their feet.

In the European Youth Champions League last season, the Saints' youth team reached the semi-finals and performed quite well.

But in the end it was Chelsea who won the title.

Although Yang Huan is very unimpressed with Abramovich, he has to admit that the Blues' youth training is indeed very good, and the quality of the players is also quite high, but they are not doing well in some aspects.

For example, the concept, most of Chelsea's youth team comes from poaching. As long as they perform well, they will spend a lot of money to introduce them. However, some of these players are often physically mature, but relatively weak in technology and awareness.

This is very problematic!

Because the physical advantage may be obvious in the competition of peers, but it becomes a disadvantage in the adult first team. If the skills and awareness are not enough, then the player is useless.

For example, in the past few years, the blue army youth training camp has often been hyped by the media. In the end, none of the talents were kicked out.

Another important point is that the promotion channel between the youth team and the first team is blocked!

Chelsea has changed coaches repeatedly in the past few seasons, the head coach has changed one after another, and the style of the team has also changed again and again, making it difficult for players trained by the youth team to get a chance in the first team.

For example, Moses, who was reused by Benitez last season, was thrown away by Mourinho this season.

Southampton is different. The club has a scientific and reasonable evaluation mechanism, which not only examines the performance of the players, but also includes the evaluation of body, technology, consciousness, personality and spiritual will, so that the club will fully understand each player. physical and mental condition.

After entering Stapletwood, the club has also devoted its heart and energy to every young player, not only playing football, but also including cultural courses, including organizing some social practice activities and so on.

Relatively speaking, Southampton's youth training model is generally more difficult to achieve results in the youth team, because they suffer from physical disadvantages, but when the players are eighteen or nineteen years old and start physical training, they will gradually improve their competitiveness. force.

At that time, the advantages in technology and consciousness will be immediately manifested.

This is also Yang Huan's positioning for youth training, that is, focus on cultivating talents without producing results!

Standing on the sidelines, you can see from time to time that the little saints on the court will have impressive performances.

For example, Adnan Januzaj, this player has already appeared in the first team, Bielsa also likes this talented player very much, and the club spares no effort in his training.

There is also Yuri Tielemans, who is of African descent and sits in the midfielder. He has good physical fitness, but his foot skills are also quite fine. The overall situation, organization and passing ability are also quite good. He is the midfielder of the youth team core.

Patrick Roberts, England's native wing genius, has fast speed, excellent skills at his feet, and his one-on-one ability is especially eye-catching. In the UEFA Youth League, he averaged five successful dribbles per game, which is not fake.

There are also Tien Jedvaj, a Croatian central defender, who has footwork and skills that are not inferior to midfielders. He is the core of the youth team's defense and is known as another player who came out of the Saints youth training camp. Genius defender.

The other is James Ward-Prowse, another English midfielder. At the age of 18, he has already become famous in England. Many people regard him as Beckham's successor. People, because he has a free kick comparable to Bayesian arc.

As an England midfielder, Prowse is diligent and active, with excellent running ability, excellent footwork, and especially outstanding passing ability. Whether it is the series in the middle of the midfield, long and short passes, or crosses to the wing, he has done quite well. .

The biggest weakness is that his physical condition is relatively average and his defense is also weak, but considering that he is only 18 years old, many people are optimistic that Prowse can become a midfielder in the Southampton team in the future.

As for youth players like Luke Shaw, Chambers, Kovacic, etc. who have already made their appearances in the first team and have been able to get double-digit chances to play, they have long been talked about by fans.

The youth team and the reserve team are full of talents, and further down, teams of every age group also have many talented young players from the UK and even all over the world. Some of them are scouts from the Saints, and some are Take the initiative to come here admiringly.

Yang Huan stood on the sidelines, quietly watching the training of the players on the field. He was very proud of Southampton's ability to train players. He firmly believed that this would become the most valuable asset of the Saints.

But gradually, he saw a very strange thing.

In an attack and defense, the first team wearing the yellow vests handed the ball to Kaka. The latter saw the opportunity and took the ball and started it.

The midfielder of the Red Vests first team is Youri Tielemans, and Kaka's close defense is Prouss, but both players are obviously concerned that Kaka has just joined the team, and he is He just came back from injury, so he didn't dare to move too much when defending, for fear of accidentally hurting Kaka.

But as a result, after Kaka successfully got rid of it, he passed a low pass to Andres Pereira in front, who easily got rid of Jedvay and scored with a push.

This made the chief assistant coach Luis Borini standing in the middle of the training ground very angry. He blew his whistle on the spot, suspended the training, and called both Prouse and Tielemans over.

"What's going on? Don't you even know how to defend? Why did you let Kaka pass through your defense zone so easily? Did you forget everything I told you before?"

"Tell me!" Luis Borini demanded, almost growling.

Yang Huan also shook his head while watching from the sidelines. This Luis Borini is quite old, but when he roars, he has the posture of Ferguson's hair dryer. No wonder Bielsa even entrusted him with the mobilization of the locker room Take charge.

The two teenagers were also stunned by Borini's yelling. They were obviously wondering, what did they do wrong?

Could it be that we must step up our actions?

What if Kaka gets hurt?

Kaka was on the side, and after hearing Borini's roar, he came over, "Louis, I think they are worried about my injury!"

Unexpectedly, Luis Borini looked at Kaka and asked, "What about you? You also think that you will get hurt?"

Kaka was taken aback, not knowing how to answer.

"Based on the defensive attitude of the two of them just now, if you are more determined and move harder, you can break through by yourself, or even score a goal, but why don't you dare?"

Kaka and the people around him obviously didn't expect that Luis Borini's eyes were so sharp that he could even notice such tiny details.

But Luis Borini obviously did not intend to give them a chance to refute and defend.

"You three, practice more after the training is over, this is punishment!"

After finishing speaking, Luis Borini waved his hand, and the three of them returned to the court, and the training started again.

Yang Huan and others were a little dazed watching from the sidelines.

"This Kaka's body, we all know, will it be injured again after such an intensive training?" Pini Zahavi really had lingering fears.

In the past few years, Kaka has been suffering from non-stop injuries. After recovering from injury, he will slowly find his form. After finally finding his form, he will play one or two games before getting injured again.

In such a cycle, Kaka has almost no good performance in Real Madrid, except for occasional flashes.

To be honest, Yang Huan was also quite worried, but he didn't understand these things at all.

However, he also felt that this Kaka had just returned from injury, so he really shouldn't accept such intensive training.

At the very least, let the family take good care of it, look for the status!

Especially when Yang Huan was on the sidelines, he saw that on the court, Prouse, Tielemans and others obviously increased their defensive efforts and actions, and even once because they failed to catch up, they shoveled Kaka to the ground. Seeing it is frightening.

It seems that you have to find a chance to talk to them!

But don't let Kaka, the former World Footballer of the Year, go to waste!
