The midfield king of football life

Chapter 87 Chapter 88
After losing to Groningen with 6 away games in the last round, all Feyenoord players were called by coach Koeman to the training ground for additional training early the next morning.

Not only that, after the extra training, all the players went to the tactical training room to watch the replay of that game.Coach Koeman said that everyone needs to reflect. That game has been recorded in Feyenoord's team history. This is a shame, a huge shame!

When Klassie arrived at the training ground in the morning, he immediately found Li Feng and said, "Feng, do you think I have the potential of a prophet? My telepathy is really accurate!"

Li Feng glanced at Klassey, and then jokingly said: "Your accuracy is a bit bad, can you predict something good next time?"

"Um, I only feel bad things. Forget it, I will try to speak as little as possible. Please allow me to make a prediction. I feel that our ending in the next game will still not be good, because I feel my eyelids are always twitching in the morning, and my heart is flustered!" Klassey was ready to leave after finishing speaking.

Li Feng said with a chuckle: "Are you sure you didn't predict that Coach Coman would trouble you today?"

After listening to what Li Feng said, Klassie ran away quickly.

In the Feyenoord tactical training room in the morning, coach Koeman asked his assistant to show everyone the video of the Groningen game, and then he explained.

Coach Koeman said: "Look, you all, what were you all doing in the first minute? When Groningen's full-back Chiare received the ball, what were you doing, Goodetti, why didn't you stand there and press forward? Do you think he is not a threat?"

Goodty, who was sitting below, immediately lowered his head in shame. At that time, he really didn't take the full-back seriously.

"Okay, let's continue to watch. When Groningen's winger Bakuna took the ball, I will not talk about Nerome's reaction. It is a reasonable reaction. I will not talk about Lierdam's reaction for the time being. Bakar What are you doing in the midfielder position? When Tadic's back was inserted, where were you? Where is your attention?"

Bakar was also depressed for a while, now let him recall the scene at that time, he has no impression at all, he has long forgotten what he was doing at that time.Bakar can only bear the blame of coach Koeman abruptly. It is indeed his mistake not to intercept Tadic.

"Okay, I've rehearsed this goal before the Groningen game. In the 16th minute, Groningen's header. You two, Lierdam and Indy, both stood up and defended well at the beginning, but when Groningen's central defender Kiet Bernd retreated, none of you paid attention to him. You were still stuck there, watching the ball flying overhead. Have you forgotten this basic defensive law?" Coach Koeman said angrily.

Judging from the first ten minutes of the opening, Feyenoord's defense was very poor, it was like paper, and they were not in the state. The defensive players seemed to be sleepwalking and lacked concentration.

Koeman saw all the players who were doing it fiercely, and then continued: "Keep watching. In the 18th minute, Bicevas passed the ball and was intercepted by Groningen's midfielder Van Drake. I think he did a very smart steal this time. Tadic rushed to grab Bicevas. Look at the position of Van Delak behind him. He is moving in sync with Tadic, so that Bicevas can't see him at all. As long as Bicevas passes the ball forward, he must be robbed break."

Bicevas stared at the game screen closely, and ten thousand muddy horses galloped past in his heart.

"I don't blame Vaz for this steal, which made the enemy too smart. But what I want to say is that you are facing Bicevas, and Van Drake on the side is in a position like yours. Haven't you noticed? If you want to be safe, you should retreat and run to get the ball, and you didn't do what you should do at that time." Koeman looked at Goodti and said reproachfully.

"Look, the opening 20 minutes was less than [-] minutes, because of negligence on the defensive line and carelessness on the offensive line, which means that we lost at the beginning. After the game starts, you have to focus on the court instead of other things at that time, understand?" Coach Koeman said.

When Coach Koeman said this, he stopped what he was doing and asked his assistant to turn off the projector.

"In the game against Groningen, to be honest, I was also careless. I didn't expect that we would collapse within the first 20 minutes. This is something I never thought of. When the first half ended, I had already surrendered. This is what I thought at the time. Looking back now, I was wrong. No matter what time we can't give up, even if there is only 1 minute left in the game, we can also create miracles." Coach Koeman said seriously.

Hearing this, Li Feng clenched his fist unconsciously.

After this round of competition, Feyenoord is temporarily ranked 6th in the standings, while Alkmaar is now temporarily ranked first in the standings, and Eindhoven has risen to 2nd in the standings.Therefore, the current structure of the Eredivisie League is basically the same as Koeman's previous analysis, but Feyenoord's form is more dangerous now. If it plays like these games in the future, then the road to the championship this season will end early.Fortunately, the schedule is not over half now, and there is still hope.

"We will play against Nijmegen at home in the next game. I hope everyone will not make the same mistake again. Nijmegen is currently ranked 15th in the league. Needless to say, there must be a certain gap between us and us. I hope everyone will not be careless. We must get back 3 points in this battle, otherwise we will lose the qualification for the UEFA Champions League." Coach Koeman said slowly.

When Coach Koeman finished training the players, he was notified to the office of club chairman Van der Helik.

Koeman knew why Van der Herijk called him without even thinking about it.

The sports media in the Rotterdam area reported the last game extensively, and they all used the "Groningen tragedy" to describe that game.Even Koeman thought that game was indeed a tragedy.But there is no way, he is the head coach, and he is the culprit when the team performs poorly.

Office of the President of Feyenoord.

Van der Helik didn't give Koeman a good face this time, because he was also condemned by the guys on the board of directors. The 6-goal loss to Groningen shamed the entire club, so he also condemned Koeman and put some pressure on him.

"Ronald, what's the problem with the team now? The current performance of the team is not the performance that a team that has always competed for the championship should have." Van der Helik asked scoldingly.

"I was careless in this game. I didn't prepare well before the game. The players were also a little overwhelmed. But Mr. Chairman, you don't have to worry too much. If I don't qualify for the UEFA Champions League this season, I will go out by myself! This is my promise to you! Please give me some more time, and I will get the team back on track." Coach Koeman replied seriously.
