super storm

Chapter 60
"Ha, you didn't see Van der Vaart's expression after the game, his whole face was completely dark."

In the evening, at Oderkerke’s home, the Swedish center Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who had just scored his first goal of the new season last night, was grinning from ear to ear, especially when he talked about his deadly opponent, Van der Vaart, who he had never been used to.

This made Yang Yang, who was sitting opposite him, easily think of an idiom, the villain succeeds.

Not to mention Vermaelen, even his close friend Maxwell and their manager Mino Raiola had expressions of helplessness, as if telling Yang Yang and Vermaelen that we don’t know this kind of villain.

But the nervous Swedish center still opened his mouth wide and kept laughing.

After getting acquainted with him, you will find that he actually has this kind of personality.

Fat Italian Mino Raiola came to Amsterdam yesterday. He has only served as Ibrahimovic’s agent for a short time. It is said that the Swedish center had a lot of contacts and contacted him. In recent days, the Swedish center has encountered troubles, and he also flew to Amsterdam very conscientiously to deal with it.

According to what Ibrahimovic said, since he changed his agent at the end of July this year, Raiola has been helping him contact the Serie A team, which is the base camp of the fat agent, but it has not yet been found.

"Don't get carried away. I scored one goal in three games. I can't hand over this report card."

After Ibrahimovic laughed triumphantly, Raiola poured a bucket of cold water on him.

The Swedish center smiled slyly, "Isn't this the beginning of the league? I haven't found the feeling yet."

As he said that, he slapped his chest vigorously, and said with pride: "Mino, just wait and see, the number of goals this season will definitely not be less than last season, and it will definitely not embarrass you."

Last season in the Eredivisie League, Ibrahimovic scored 25 goals in [-] games, the second leading scorer in the team, lost to van der Vaart, and scored five goals in the Champions League, performing very well.

Judging from his past two seasons at Ajax, his performance has been steadily improving, and it is worth looking forward to better statistics this season, after all, he is only 21 years old.

"Don't think about being angry with Van der Vaart, if you want to leave Ajax early, if you want those big teams to pay for you, you have to show better offensive statistics and score more goals, understand?" Raiola warned.

"I know, you have said this countless times, and I can hear the cocoons in my ears." Ibrahimovic curled his lips, "The loss of Van der Meyde in the frontcourt this season is also a big problem. Originally, there was a passer on the right, but now..."

In the Champions League game just past, Ibrahimovic's goal came from a cross from left back Maxwell. In addition, the Swedish center did not get too many opportunities.

The main problem lies in the conflict of technical characteristics between him and van der Vaart.

Van der Vaart is Ajax's leading star who does his part. He dominates the frontcourt offense and the distribution of ball rights. He prefers to cruise in the middle behind the striker.

Both Ronald Koeman and Van Gaal hope that Ibrahimovic will transform, reduce unnecessary possession of the ball, and increase the threat in front of the goal, that is, transform himself into a scorer. This is also Ajax's favorite type of center in the past few years.

In contrast, Wesley Songk is not as good as Ibrahimovic in terms of height and strength, but his characteristics are more in line with Ajax's requirements, but he has not been able to integrate into the team so far.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic refused to change, Van der Vaart was a star player and refused to compromise. Coupled with the previous captain's dispute, the two fell in love with each other on the court.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang really felt that if a player wants to perform well in a team, he really needs the right time, place and people.

"Okay, that's what I'm telling you, I can't control you no matter what you want to do." Raiola spread his hands helplessly, "In short, I will try my best to run for you in Italy, but you need to show me a better performance as a bargaining chip."

"There must be no problem." The Swedish center assured without hesitation.

It can be seen that as long as he has the opportunity, he will leave Ajax without hesitation.

In this regard, whether it is Yang Yang, Vermaelen, or Maxwell, they can all understand.

…………

…………

After sending away the three Ibrahimovic who were eating, Yang Yang, as usual, locked himself in the room under the pretext of studying, and directly entered the super training ground.

Although he has no plans to leave Ajax for the time being, he was really stimulated by the conversation between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Raiola, and he felt that he should continue to work hard to improve himself and become the main force in the second team as soon as possible.

At his age, sitting on the bench cannot improve his strength. He needs the training of the game, the more the better.

"Old Bing, I want to ask you something."

"what?"

"If I give the general situation of a player, such as his height, weight, physical condition and playing habits, can you simulate it for me and let him come to practice with me?" Yang Yang asked with concern.

This is what he suddenly thought of when he participated in the team's pre-match tactical meeting in the afternoon.

After all, Ajax is a giant in the Eredivisie. Although the financial resources and resources invested in the second team are far inferior to the first team, it is definitely better than a small team like Almere. Before each game, there will be special scouts to spy on the opponent's intelligence.

It's just that the intelligence is definitely worse than that of the first team, for example, it will not provide game video analysis.

But from the intelligence of the scouts, Yang Yang can know that the left back of Ethel Merzus that he will face in the next game is Pierre Tasch, 21 years old this year, a native of Spakenburg, and his various statistics and playing habits.

It should be said that this is some of the simplest and rough player information, the purpose is only to give Yang Yang some superficial impressions.

But when Yang Yang got this piece of information, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind. If he could virtualize such a player in the super training ground to practice with him, wouldn't that be previewing in advance?
Even as long as you think about the opponent thoroughly before the game, wouldn't it be more effective on the field?
Therefore, as soon as he entered the super training ground, Yang Yang threw this question to Lao Bing.

"Theoretically, based on the information you provide, I can virtualize any player for you to practice with you. The more detailed the information you give, the higher the degree of realism. Even if you can provide his game video, I can directly virtualize him." Lao Bing was still cold, answering very mechanically.

"But I have to remind you that the game is changing rapidly, and the players are also adapting to the situation. This kind of simulated sparring can only help you get acquainted with your opponent, and you should not rely too much on it."

"I know that." Yang Yang was very satisfied.

Of course he knew it was just an aid, but it was enough.

In the past, no matter whether he was in the Almere youth team or in the amateur competition, Yang Yang had no eyes for the opponent in the next match. At most, he only knew the opponent's name, and he didn't know anything else.

But it’s different now. Ajax’s scouting system is very complete. There are also special scouts to study the opponents of the next game and provide information for the team and players. This undoubtedly provides great convenience for Yang Yang. If he can get familiar with the opponents in advance in the super training ground, wouldn’t he be more confident in tomorrow’s game?
"That's it, Lao Bing. From now on, the night before each game, our training program will be slightly changed. In addition to basic training, Ronaldo's assault and Beckham's cross, we will add a simulated duel with the next opponent."

"Okay, I'll adjust right away." Lao Bing agreed without hesitation.

On the other hand, Yang Yang was thinking that it might not be enough to only get information about the opposing players. He would definitely try to get more information about the players in the future, so that he might be able to simulate the opponent's team defensive formation and coordinated operations, which would make this kind of simulated duel training more realistic and more targeted.

After all, on the court, the higher the level of the game, the less chances are left for him one-on-one.

After making a decision, Yang Yang started training tonight.

After four months of special training, Yang Yang's basic skills have been completely reborn, but he still keeps practicing hard every day, but the time in the super training ground is precious, and the daily basic training is only used for warm-up and review, and the time taken up is gradually decreasing.

The two star skills are Yang Yang's most important advantages at present, and they are the highlights of Yang Yang's hard training in the super training ground, but now a simulated pair training is added, which must reduce the practice time of star skills appropriately.

Fortunately, it was only the night before the game, so it didn't have much impact.

…………

…………

The next morning, after a night of hard training in the super training ground, Yang Yang woke up refreshed again.

Still bouncing the ball to the east of the town, jogging around Lake Oderkerke, and after sweating, I bought breakfast along the way, but it was an extra Raiola portion than usual.

Considering the size of the Italian fat man, it is estimated that the food intake is not low, so Yang Yang specially bought some more.

Since it is entertaining guests, of course it is better to have more than to lack.

When he came home with breakfast, in front of the living room window of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's home, Raiola was looking at him who opened the door with a curious face, showing a look of concern on his face.

"He is the most hardworking player I have ever seen." Ibrahimovic said with admiration.

Raiola's mouth curved into a half-smile, and he turned to look at the Swedish center forward, "If you had half his determination and hard work, I would be much more relaxed now."

Ibrahimovic curled his lips and muttered, "I've worked hard, okay?"

Raiola was noncommittal, and turned his head again, just in time to see Yang Yang closing the door and entering the house.
