Qin Xiong was reprimanded by Van Basten!

That was obviously a joking tone.

He told Qin Xiong: If you want to come to participate in training, you can change your clothes. If you don’t train, get out and don’t disturb other players.

Qin Xiong went to the locker room of the first team to change his jersey, and then participated in the training of the reserve team.

With the addition of Qin Xiong, the training atmosphere of the reserve team has become much more active. However, Qin Xiong had just experienced a big battle last night, so he came to the training mainly to recover, and he will not be particularly hardworking.

During the intermission of the training session, he learned about the results of several unpopular matches in the Champions League 1/8 finals from his friends in the reserve team.

In this regard, Qin Xiong and his teammates didn't care or understand at all after the game last night.

Porto upset Manchester United.

Deportivo de La Coruña upset Juventus.

In comparison, the result of Ajax's elimination of Arsenal is not a particularly surprising upset.

Bayern Munich lost to Real Madrid, which must have been considered normal by many people before the game.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League are out.

Ajax, Porto, Deportivo, AC Milan, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Lyon, Monaco.

When today's football media interprets the probability of the top 8 teams winning the championship, Ajax is listed as the fourth favorite.

Ranked first is the defending champion AC Milan, the second is Real Madrid, the third is the British upstart Chelsea, and the fourth is Ajax.

Deportivo, Monaco, Porto, and Lyon are all slightly inferior to the top four in terms of fame and background.

The specific results of the draw for the quarter-finals will be made in the evening.

Qin Xiong's mentality is very stable now, he doesn't care who gets drawn.

Under the leadership of Marco van Basten, the reserve team advances in both the league and the cup, and the momentum is unstoppable. Qin Xiong is also happy for friends like Dreedle and Lindgren who are working hard in the reserve team. cheer.

Lindgren and the others agreed with Qin Xiong: See you in the first team!

Qin Xiong doesn't know if this agreement will be realized one day, at least it is unlikely this season.

When he returned to Wardell Street in the evening, the three old men, Luttmansen, De Keuse, and Pistre, prepared a sumptuous dinner and treated Qin Xiong as if they were welcoming a hero back home, which made him feel a little flattered.

In the small restaurant in De Coyze, Qin Xiong met several Chinese, who were reporters from major Chinese sports media stationed in Europe.

When they saw Qin Xiong, they came up to request an interview. Qin Xiong told them solemnly: Now, he refuses all interviews.

Freddie came forward to deal with the reporters, explained why Qin Xiong was unwilling to accept the interview, left their contact information, and promised that Qin Xiong would take the initiative to contact them when the time was right, but if he did not cooperate, Qin Xiong would There will also be no interviews.

Seeing Qin Xiong's resolute attitude, the reporters returned disappointed.

Qin Xiong didn't want to cause any unnecessary troubles, God knows if what he said would be misinterpreted, it might bring troubles to the club and himself.

Especially now he is most afraid of facing a question: Will you still play for Ajax next season?

How to answer?

Qin Xiong couldn't make a promise, so an ambiguous answer would create a disturbance.

Had dinner with the three old men and Freddie, and the three old men were so excited that they sang Dutch folk songs.

Qin Xiong attracted attention after the draw ceremony for the quarter-finals was broadcast on TV.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League will be announced soon, and Ajax's signing is good.

AC Milan VS Deportivo.

Porto VS Lyon.

Real Madrid VS Monaco.

Ajax vs Chelsea.

I'm going to go to the UK again, and it's all in London!

After the results of the round of 16 draw were announced, the teammates called to discuss, but this time it was very calm. Qin Xiong did not receive any text messages or phone calls from his teammates. It seems that everyone's mentality has quietly changed in the past three months.

After eating and drinking, Freddy picked up a napkin to wipe his hands, and whispered to Qin Xiong, "Today I received a call from England."

"Huh? Don't keep it to yourself."

"Arsenal vice-chairman Dane called me and invited me to his house."

Qin Xiong looked thoughtful.

Obviously, this kind of guest invitation is not to talk about romantic affairs, but to talk about player transfers in the dark.

Qin Xiong asked: "Have you agreed?"

Freddy shook his head solemnly, and said seriously: "You have an agreement with Ajax, and besides, this kind of sidestepping in the transfer market and negotiating in advance bypassing the club is common in European football. It belongs to unspoken rules, but as an outsider, you still have to be cautious in this regard, and you can't make mistakes. The most important point is that Arsenal want you, and I don't know whether you want to go to Arsenal or not. Of course it’s impossible to agree to him.”

Qin Xiong nodded, it is indeed the truth.

Freddie was very thoughtful.

After pondering for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to think about these things, the more you think about them, the more you will be distracted."

Freddy patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Well, you don't have to think too much, I will only tell you some important information, and other things, you don't have to worry about it for now, just concentrate on the game, Ajax has reached the Champions League The quarter-finals, if you go further, I promise, you can go to a more ideal club than Ajax in the summer."

......

Bad news from the top management of the Ajax club.

The protagonist is Van Gaal.

After the team reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, he announced in a high-profile manner: Ajax will reach the semi-finals of the Champions League every five years on average!

Compared with Ajax ten years ago, the standard is already very low.

But it is more in line with the current positioning of Ajax.

As the club's strategic designer, Van Gaal's declaration and goals have not been recognized by the high-level.

Not even Koeman was on Van Gaal's side.

The players don't know what's going on at the top, and they even have to learn the story of the club's top from the well-informed media reports.

The board has been described as short-sighted and poor, uninterested in Van Gaal's "magnificent" goals.

Obviously, to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League every 5 years on average, the requirements for the strength of the team will be higher. On the stage of the Champions League, you will not be able to reach the semi-finals unless you have strength.

It needs your long-term stable and powerful strength as the backing to make it possible.

In other words, ask for money!

Without money, you can't buy good players, and you can't keep good players with high salaries.

The reason why Van Gaal made such remarks at this time.

Because he saw the potential of this group of Ajax players, he was actually reminding the club to spend money to retain players and strengthen the lineup. Ajax might be able to reproduce the glory of ten years ago scene.

It's a pity that the club's top executives can understand Van Gaal's subtext, but they can't risk being crazy with him.

Frustrated by this, Van Gaal traveled to England at the weekend to watch Chelsea play.

Nominally, he was inspecting his opponents, but Fleet Street revealed that Chelsea owner Abramovich is not too interested in Ranieri, and has long thought of changing coaches. It was not Van Gaal who took the initiative to go to Stamford Bridge to watch the game, but was invited by Abramovich. Obviously , Van Gaal is a member of Chelsea's coaching range.

In fact, last summer, when Chelsea boss Abramovich took over at Stamford Bridge, there were scandals between Chelsea and Ajax.

After Abramovich bought Chelsea, he carried out a football revolution at Stamford Bridge. He spent a lot of money and listed a long list of acquisitions.

On that, of course there are Ajax talents, such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic and van der Vaart.

However, Chelsea has caused public anger in European football. They lure players with high salaries, and at the same time offer a lot of money. It is not a forced buy, but better than a forced buy, which makes the major European giants panic and anger, including Ajax. Inside, many teams are hostile and wary of Chelsea.

Van Gaal's visit to Stamford Bridge to watch the game became the fuse, causing an irreparable conflict between him and the club's top management.

The concern of the Ajax executives is: whether Van Gaal will surrender to Chelsea, and the joint vote will be the star of Ajax!

Van Gaal could not tolerate the ignorance and short-sightedness of Ajax's top management.

Things are progressing so fast that it is unimaginable. When Ajax played against Roda JC on Sunday, the day after Van Gaal went to Stamford Bridge to watch the game, the Ajax official website announced: Will resign after the end!
