Winger King

Chapter 90



Thomas persuaded De Jong with his eloquence.

De Jong still had four months left in his contract with his original agent, and he planned to make a decision before the contract expired.

In fact, De Jong has been a frequent visitor to the Dutch youth teams at all levels since three years ago, and his strength has been recognized in the Netherlands.

De Jong and Van de Beek are players of the same year. According to the strength of Willem II, De Jong is at least a rotation player for the team.

But Willem II's head coach does not like De Jong's style of play. He believes that the young man's style of play and weak confrontation ability are likely to become a time bomb on the field.

So even though De Jong has entered Willem II's first team, he has not had a chance to play even once this season.

This is a bit too much.

There are often good horses, but there are not often good horse trainers.

Sun Yu believes that if De Jong was in the hands of Ferguson, Wenger or Guardiola, he would have had many opportunities to play.

If that head coach was in Ferguson's position, Macheda would never have scored two lore goals for Manchester United at the age of 17, and Fabregas, 17, would not have become a regular starter for Arsenal.

Even Mourinho, who is a deep user of "Old Den", gave 18-year-old Thornton 18 appearances when he was at Inter Milan.

The ability to identify players and the potential of young players is the core competitiveness of a head coach. If you don't have a good vision, you are destined not to become a leader in the industry.

Sun Yu asked Thomas to make a video clip and scout report of De Jong, and then found time to give it to Overmars in person.

Overmars asked Sun Yu about what happened. Sun Yu kept embellishing Thomas and admitted that Thomas wanted to poach players.

Overmars accepted the scout report, said he would read it carefully, and talked to Sun Yu with interest.

"Has Thomas ever commented on our players? I want to hear his opinion."

Sun Yu thought for a moment: "He said that Gravenberch will definitely become a talent in the future. I heard that the discussion has almost been completed."

In fact, Thomas has already won over the 13-year-old Gravenberch. The latter entered the Ajax football school at the age of eight. Sun Yu has known him for a long time. Thomas used Sun Yu's relationship to quickly break the ice and obtained the child's agency rights.

Overmars smiled and nodded: "In fact, we are continuing to pay attention to De Jong. If there is a chance to communicate, I will hint at Thomas' role."

Communicating with smart people is time-saving and labor-saving. After achieving his goal, Sun Yu continued to devote himself to training with satisfaction.

When the schedule reached February, Sun Yu finally understood that Ajax was eliminated in the Europa League round of 32 every season.

The schedule is really too difficult!

Play the first round of the Europa League round of 32 on February 20, and play the league on February 22.

On February 27, they will play the second round of the Europa League round of 32, and on March 1, they will play PSV Eindhoven in the league.

Moreover, because the Europa League knockout round is played by the second-tier teams, there is no draw and the teams will be played at home first and away later.

With such a complicated schedule, if they draw a team from the four major leagues, they can basically give up the Europa League.

But this season is different. Ajax drew the only soft persimmon among the first-tier teams in the Europa League round of 32, and it is impossible to give up.

After thinking again and again, De Boer put together two lineups with the players of the first and second teams. He planned to let the rotation players fight hard in the Europa League at home, and let the main players play in the league.

No matter how the first round of the Europa League knockout round goes, most of the main players will fight with the opponent in Warsaw, and then fight for the king mountain with PSV Eindhoven.

Compared with Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, who drew Zenit, is more passive.

Zenit has a number of strong players such as Rondon, Hulk, Witsel, Javi Garcia, Krishito and Tymoshchuk. Judging from the team lineup, it may be better than PSV Eindhoven.

If PSV Eindhoven intends to "have both", the remaining half month will be a big hurdle.

February 20.

Ajax welcomed Legia Warsaw at home.

Sun Yu was put on the bench, Schone started at the right winger position, and Bazor and Danswell both appeared in the starting lineup.

Riedwald, Zivkovic and Teni Tete also appeared on the bench.

In the 34th minute, Polish center Milik received Schone's cross and shook his head hard, and the ball went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

It's true that they are fellow villagers, a shot in the back.

Facing the Polish team, Milik was very active.

De Boer really has something, and letting Milik start is very psychologically meaningful.

If Milik can't perform against Polish clubs, then he is at the level of the Polish Super League.

In fact, Poland has a national sportsCultivate habits. Everyone will receive relatively systematic track and field training during their school days.

If you are familiar with a wide range of sports, you will find that Polish athletes have a very good level in many projects.

Therefore, Polish athletes are usually very comprehensive. The men's basketball team with the little giants in the team was known as the world's top eight, but it also lost to the Polish men's basketball team in the warm-up match.

Whether the Polish men's basketball team can enter the top eight in Europe depends on fate.

The players of both sides fought hard throughout the game, and Ajax finally defeated Legia Warsaw 1-0 at home.

In other games, Eindhoven lost to Zenit 0-1 at home after sending all the main players.

Hulk won the victory for the team with a burst shot when the two sides were deadlocked.

On the contrary, Feyenoord, who had no desire in the league, drew 1-1 with Roma away, and the situation was very good.

February 22.

Sun Yu returned to the starting lineup, and Milik, who scored a goal in the last game, continued to get the chance to start.

In the 37th minute, Milik received a pass from El Ghazi and headed the ball onto the left post.

Sun Yu rushed into the small penalty area before the opponent's right back and shoveled the ball into the goal.

1:0!

After Sun Yu scored a goal, Ajax has been taking the initiative.

In the 52nd minute, Sun Yu received the ball and cut inside and passed the ball into the penalty area.

He originally wanted to play a small cooperation with the opponent, but Milik suddenly turned and shot at the moment of receiving the ball, and kicked the ball into the goal.

2:0!

After a game, Sun Yu felt that he didn't fight much, but he got a goal and an assist.

For the next two major games, Sun Yu has been very restrained when playing.

In this kind of game with obvious strength, it must be reserved, and the best state must be kept in important games.

In another game in the same round, PSV Eindhoven stubbornly continued to use ten starting players in the Europa League knockout stage.

This wave of operations directly fascinated Sun Yu. With two games in three days, this was the first time he saw a game being played like this.

As an opponent of PSV Eindhoven, Utrecht had two options. The first was to park the bus throughout the game, and the second was to madly increase the tempo of the game.

As a result, Utrecht only started to increase the tempo after defending the first half.

As luck would have it, they just increased the tempo when the left midfielder gave away an own goal.

The desperate counterattack was counterattacked by PSV Eindhoven and Luke de Jong scored a penalty to end the game.

This... is simply stupidity and bad luck at the same time.

It seems that if you want to beat PSV Eindhoven, you can only rely on yourself.

February 27.

Ajax played away against Legia Warsaw. Sun Yu, who started the game, scored two goals in the first half. De Boer decisively replaced Sun Yu during the halftime break.

Ajax finally defeated the opponent 3-0 away and advanced 4-0 in two rounds.

In another match, PSV Eindhoven, who still played their main players, lost 0-3 to Zenit away from home and was eliminated 0-4 in two rounds.

At the press conference after the game, when De Boer was asked about the upcoming Dutch derby, he smiled and said: "PSV Eindhoven made a mistake."
