Chapter 3 Tottenham Coaching Staff Meeting

Tottenham blew the horn for the new season's training camp, and in the Tottenham club, head coach Villas-Boas called a meeting of the coaching team.

In the head coach's office, Boas held a thick list of players in his hand, and said: "Gentlemen, the new season is about to start. We can't be like before this time. We need to seek changes."

"Youth Storm Project" is an important reorganization charter put forward by Boas.

The main content is to give up most of the old players, clean up those locker room tumors, and build a completely different Bai Baihe team centered on young players.

In his concept, this will be a youthful, sunny, passionate, vigorous team with a sense of hard work.

They may lack experience in major competitions, and they may not be mature enough, but they are young enough to inject youthful vitality into the old White Hart Lane with this fresh blood, thus creating a completely different team.

This is Boas' ambition!

For this important reorganization, Boas hand-picked Yi Le, and at the same time introduced many players.

He recruited back Dele Alli, who was on loan to Milton Kells, and the performance of the 1996 teenager impressed Boas.

Dele Ali's role in the striker and midfield is huge, and he will be the perfect partner for Yi Le and Elkeson.

Afterwards, Boas consolidated his striker strength again. He spent 30 million euros to introduce a Korean player from the Bundesliga Leverkusen, Sun Xingmin. mid to high priced players.

Moreover, these players are all teenagers, and the oldest among them are the current Tottenham captain Harry Kane and Sun Xingmin.

This season, Villas-Boas has a lot of ambitions. He wants to finish running this team this season, and start to hit the league championship and even the Champions League next season.

Boas looked confidently at the list of players on the table, then turned on the projector and said, "Gentlemen, let's watch a video first."

Boas is not a boastful person, he likes to speak with facts.

Soon a game screen was projected on the projector, a collection of passes by a black-haired boy.

This young man is exactly the core midfielder of Millwall handpicked by Boas this season.

The coaching team didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Boas gourd, but they still observed carefully. At first they felt that they were not interested, but they soon discovered something that surprised them.

"What an exaggerated vision!"

Assistant coach Michelle said in surprise.

"Yes." Boas sat on the desk, crossed his hands and praised: "Yi's technical characteristics are reflected in his control in the midfield, and his passing range is wider than Elkeson's." Big, this is a player who can pass, punch and has a wonderful through ball ability."

Hearing this, the coaches of each group began to write and record data.

Groups of data appeared in the projected place, but Boas did not urge him, and watched the coaches constantly calculating with a smile.

After a while, the fitness coach was pleasantly surprised: "His physical fitness can fully adapt to the Premier League, and judging from this set of data, he is indeed a perfect organizational midfielder."

Assistant coach Michelle also raised his head in surprise and said, "Of the 24 attacks launched in this game, Yi took on as many as 20 of them.

And they were all threatening attacks, including five wonderful through balls, which directly pierced the opposing team's defense, oh my god! This is Bournemouth! For a Premier League team, his performance is phenomenal. His control of the midfield is even stronger than Elkeson. "

"He really only wants 10 million pounds? God! Have we found a treasure?"

"This is a midfielder that has never been seen in the Premier League. His arrival may bring a completely different style of play to the team."

"His teammates are terrible, and the defensive end is rubbish! The offensive end is barely good, but the technical characteristics are too monotonous. If Gregory is replaced by Harry Kane, he can score twice as many goals."

"There is also a problem with the tactical arrangement, relying on Yi, the cannon in the middle, to support it. This stupid approach completely obliterates Yi's versatility."

Listening to the praise of the coaching team, Boas is also very proud. This is his hand-picked player, can he not be strong?

Assistant coach Michel suddenly asked: "How is his ability to press high?"

There was a smile on the corner of Boas's mouth, playful: "He is a child who came out of La Masia, what do you think? My friend Michelle."

Michelle couldn't help chuckling, closed his handwriting with a snap, and said, "Old man, you went there with a purpose, he fits our tactical style so well, oh no! Our tactics were born."

The coaching team laughed and laughed, they were happy to introduce an excellent midfielder, but soon Villas-Boas poured cold water on them.

"But there is also a sharp question, how do we deal with the coexistence of Yi and Elkeson!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally bustling office was silent.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Yes, they already have a midfield core-Elkerson, and they performed very well last season and have already gained the trust of the fans.

But Elkerson is not the core of Boas' lineup, he needs to assist Yi Le.

But will Elkeson really be willing to be a green leaf?

This is obviously impossible.

Now the coaching team is worried.

They are under a lot of pressure now, both the club and the fans have overwhelmed them.

As for dominating the locker room?

Boas had such a trouble at Chelsea, and the consequences were serious.

Having learned a lesson once, they never dared to make such a fuss again, so they could only resort to soft measures.

so.....

"Let them play fair!"

Boas's eyes were sharp, and he said: "I believe that Yi will not disappoint my trust. This lineup is suitable for Yi. His style of play is the most correct. Let him play on the field and let him slowly influence the fans. And teammates, no one will have trouble with victory, right?"

At the end of the meeting, after the other coaches left, Michelle left.

He poured himself a cup of coffee and asked, "Do you really believe that Yi can succeed?"

Boas was sorting out the documents. Hearing the words, he paused for a while, then said in silence, "I don't know, but... I want to trust him."

"why?"

Michelle asked suspiciously.

Boas sighed, he turned around, looked at Michel and said: "I saw different qualities in him, if before October last year, some people said that Millwall would win the championship, do you believe ?"

"I don't believe it!" Michelle shook her head and said, "They were relegating at the time, and their results were terrible."

"That's right! I don't believe it." Boas smiled, but then said with emotion: "But they did it. They not only succeeded in upgrading, but also won the championship. This is something that no one has ever thought of. I I see a contagious energy in Yi, not only can he drive himself, but he can also drive his teammates, drive the fans, he has a charisma that makes other people surround him and work towards his goal."

Michelle said with a strange face: "Do you regard him as a mascot?"

"Hehe." Boas laughed; "A powerful mascot? Michelle, you really dare to think about it. Let me ask you a question, how has Tottenham achieved in recent years?"

Hearing this, Michelle looked a little constipated.

Tottenham's recent results can't be considered bad, but they can't be considered good either. Anyway, it's just two words...uncomfortable!

If you can't get high, if you can't get low, you just get stuck there.

In the 2010-2011 season, Tottenham entered the Champions League. With Gareth Bale's phenomenal performance, they successfully broke into the quarter-finals, but then they were overthrown by Real Madrid.

In the 2011-2012 season, Tottenham made a perfect start in the Premier League. They kept pace with the Red Devils and ranked second with a slight advantage. However, the coaching turmoil in the second half of the season caused Tottenham's performance to plummet. , finally ranked fourth, seeing that they could participate in the Champions League, but who would have thought that Chelsea, who was sixth in the league, would win the Champions League and kicked Tottenham back.

In the 2012-2013 season, Villas-Boas took over Tottenham, and the effect was also very good, but there was another problem, whether it was high or low, stuck in the middle, full of embarrassment.

In the 2013-2014 season, the sixth in the league, without a championship throughout the year, wasted work.

In the 2014-2015 season, relying on the performance of Harry Kane and Elkeson, I felt that the team performed well, but encountered Waterloo again.

Today, Tottenham is a leaky balloon, and the repair of the leak is useless at all. The best way is to change the carrier.

And this is the reason for the "Youth Storm" project.

Just when Michel was thinking about these questions bitterly, Boas' voice came: "Let's use it as a mascot. I hope that the feat he accomplished at Millwall can also be repeated at White Hart Lane. This Once we were really different, we made drastic reforms, we used new players, and what we are looking forward to is a new round of rise, not to fill in the gaps!"

Boas came all the way to the floor-to-ceiling windows. Looking at the lush green lawn, he said with enthusiasm in his eyes: "This is a youth storm in North London! Sooner or later it will shock the whole of Europe!"
