As the team's performance improved, the atmosphere in DeTok Mostri gradually became relaxed.

The most obvious thing is that in the training ground, the atmosphere has obviously become much more active, and many players even make some funny things in the training ground and locker room. Ye Qiu did not stop this. He regarded this as a gift for the players to perform well.

After the morning training class, the players walked directly to the locker room, while Ye Qiu walked to the coaching room.

The Dutch National Television Sports Channel is broadcasting sports news. It was the League Cup lottery ceremony held in Geneva at 12:30 noon, so Ye Qiu found a seat and sat down.

There have been a lot of news in recent times, but as always, there are very few news related to the Netherlands, basically all news from the four major leagues, especially Serie A. Serie A is now a veritable world number one league, and fans around the world are staring at it.

And in recent weeks, the most eye-catching news in Serie A is undoubtedly Juventus' goalkeeper.

Ancelotti is very dissatisfied with the performance of Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar. Juventus fans do not like this tall but seemingly slow-responsive goalkeeper. They even held up signs in home games, calling out their former angels, but after turning to Inter Milan, they joined Lazio's former goalkeeper Angelo Peruzi this season.

Angelo, in Italian, means angels, and Zebras fans see Peruzi as their guardian angel, especially when Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar performed poorly.

"Poor Van der Sar, he definitely has strength, but why do he perform so badly in Serie A?" Bobby Hams felt a little sorry and regretful for this former student.

Van der Sar's performance in Serie A is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but unfortunately, his performance in recent weeks has indeed been very bad, especially in the recent game, when he challenged Pannashinaks away from the Champions League, Van der Sar scored 3 goals by the opponent, which directly led to Juventus being eliminated from the Champions League, and he did not even have the qualification to participate in the League Cup, and he was directly eliminated.

In Serie A, Van der Sar lost 6 goals in 6 rounds of games. Even the team's veteran Ferrara said that he had never been so bad at Juventus. He spent almost every game in fear and lacked a sense of security.

Although neither Ancelotti nor Ferrara said it directly, everyone knew that they were talking about Van der Sar.

Ye Qiu's feeling at this moment is absurd, because Juventus regarded Van der Sar as the sinner of history, and the Dutch goalkeeper was completely listed as a paralyzer. But who could have thought that a few years later, the old Fan would be able to shine in Manchester United's old tree?

"Our current problem is a bit similar to Juventus!" Ye Qiu shook his head with a wry smile.

Goalkeeper Fred Grim is not young anymore and has experience, but the problem is that his strength has declined very much and is somewhat out of place with Ajax's tactics, especially in communication and exchanges with the back line, which has led to Ajax's problems in this aspect.

The biggest hidden danger in the midfield and backcourt this season is Lucio, who likes to go forward and Grim, who lacks stability.

Ye Qiu is not asking for responsibility, but these two players at least made Ajax lose a lot of points. The difference is that Lucio is favored by Ye Qiu, and she has young potential and has enough future to be worthy of Ye Qiu's cultivation. But Grim is so old that he obviously can't keep up with Ye Qiu's pace.

"We should indeed consider introducing a powerful goalkeeper!" Bobby Hams also agreed with Ye Qiu's view.

Ye Qiu has many considerations for the goalkeeper choice, including Peter Cech of the Czech Republic, Reina of Barcelona, ​​etc. He has also released scouts to find and inspect these players. He wants to know whether these players have the ability to play as the main player in Ajax.

Among them, Reina, who is young, has played for Barcelona this season and has been promoted to the main force by Ferrer. He is hoped by countless Barcelona fans to become Casillas, who is Barcelona's own, but his performance is mixed and his performance is not stable enough.

If this is the case, why should Ye Qiu give up Grim?

While Ye Qiu and Bobby Hams were exchanging opinions, the League Cup draw ceremony also began.

This season's League Cup is the world of Bundesliga teams. A total of 7 Bundesliga teams have entered the top 32 of the League Cup, 5 La Liga teams, and 3 Serie A teams. In addition to the Ligue 1, Premier League and Eredivisie teams, there are many strong teams in the League Cup.

For Ajax, no matter who his opponent is, they should not be despised at all, because they have no capital at all.

But in the end, Ajax's opponent was from Rome in Serie A!

Feyenoord won the Bundesliga Stuttgart, and Eindhoven was the best luck and met the Thessalonika of Greece.

Ajax is no longer as glorious as Van Gaal's Champions League period. His strength has declined sharply in recent years, resulting in the outside world's evaluation of Ajax. He won Roma, and more people think this cannot even be regarded as a strong dialogue.

The real strong dialogue should be Inter Milan and Hertha Berlin. The four major league teams are duel, and even more so, Feyenoord and Stuttgart have a relatively strong duel.

On the other hand, Ajax and Roma have a huge gap in strength. After all, Capello's star-studded lineup is comparable to Ajax's humble player list, picking a few can beat the entire Ajax team.

Batistuta, Toti, Emerson, Kafu, Candela, Samuel, Montera...

This season, Roma won 5 wins and 1 loss in the first six rounds of Serie A in the World No. 1 league, which shows how strong it is.

"It's so unlucky. I actually met Rome!" Roland shook his head and sighed.

This kind of lottery is purely bad luck, because Rome's strength is incomparable, let alone Ajax, even Eindhoven, so there is no suspense about deliberately creating a strong dialogue.

After being drawn to Rome, many people in the coaching room were silent because no one was willing to accept the fate of dying in the future.

On the contrary, Ye Qiu, seeing that no one was talking, he stood up with a smile.

"I think it's very satisfying to draw Rome!"

Ye Qiu gives people the feeling of being eager to try, "I am starting to regain the passion and excitement I had when I played the Dutch Cup last year. When we led the second team, the gap was bigger than the current one with Rome? But what about the result?"

His words made Ricklink and Roland feel some spirit.

Yes, when I led the second team last year, the gap was even bigger, but Ajax finally laughed to the end.

"The interesting thing about life is that it keeps challenging the strong. Even if it is Rome, even Capello, I am not afraid of him!"

…………

…………

The League Cup knockout match won Roma, which somewhat affected some of the team's atmosphere. Everyone had a sense of awe for Roma and Capello, because the former had a lineup of a group of world-class stars, while the latter was one of the most outstanding coaches on the planet.

But the game still needs to continue.

In the 12th round of the league, Ajax faced Grafsharp at home.

As Ye Qiu adjusted, the players gradually adapted to his tactics, and their power gradually emerged, just like in this game against Grafsharp, Ajax played a round of offensive feast at Arena Stadium.

Van der Med scored twice, Ibrahimovic scored the first goal for the team. In the second half, Van der Fate, who returned from injury, also assisted Robben to win another goal. In the end, Ajax defeated Grafsharp 4-1 at Arena Stadium.

The only regret is that Hunter Lar, who reunited with his old club, failed to score a goal after he came on the bench.

A week later, Ajax challenged the newly promoted Breda away.

If Rosendal is the typical example of the newly promoted Marriott who is doing poorly, then Breda is a case of doing well.

One obvious feature of Breda is that he is the dragon at home. This team lost one at home this season, and it was the first game of the new season to play Valvek. Only 6 home games have an impressive record of 5 wins and 1 draw, but the away game is average, and the last round just lost to Twente 0:4.

Defensive counterattack is Breda's best weapon and is also Ajax's weakness.

But in this game, Ye Qiu still chose to push up and adopt a high-level defense strategy to attack Breda.

In Ye Qiu's opinion, Ajax is a strong team and will definitely encounter teams that defend and counterattack frequently, so sooner or later, they will find an offensive strategy for the tough battle. Moreover, Breda is not as strong as Ajax, so Ye Qiu decided to continue to adopt a high-level defensive strategy and look at the situation first.

Van der Mede has performed well recently, especially after Van der Fate was injured, his performance on the right was eye-catching.

With excellent speed, good cross-drawing points, and good personal abilities, this allows him to appear on the court and play a good role in the right attack. In addition, Robben on the left, Ajax's wings played very actively.

Because of this, even though Van der Fate returned from injury, Ye Qiu still used the combination of Robben and Van der Mede to let Van der Fate sit on the bench. After all, no head coach is willing to break the team's good momentum in the game.

Van der Mede did not disappoint Ye Qiu's trust in him. After the game started, he performed very actively on the right and threatened several times of taking the ball. Especially in the 16th minute, he broke through the opponent's defense line after getting the ball on the right and passed it low to the penalty area. After Ibrahimovic stopped the ball, he suppressed the opponent's central defender with his body, turned around and shot, pierced through Breda's goal, 1:0!

After scoring the goal, Ajax began to consciously slow down the offensive and rhythm, hoping to lure Breda out and hit.

The first half was spent 1:0, but at the beginning of the second half, Ajax suddenly strengthened the offensive again and launched a fierce attack on Breda, especially Van der Mede on the right, which was even more active, making Breda's defense seriously lean towards his side.

In the 63rd minute, Maicon transferred from the right foot, Abidal stopped the ball on the left and quickly inserted it, passing it low to Robben in front. The latter broke into the penalty area and was tripped by the opponent's central defender in the penalty area. The referee clearly judged that the penalty kick was awarded. Robben scored a penalty in one go, expanding the score for Ajax, 2:0!

Scoring two goals in a row gave Breda no choice, so he could only choose to press and play.

But Ajax did not give him such a chance. In the 87th minute, Ajax, who fought with Breda for 20 minutes, received a pass from Ajax from substitute Hunteral, who came on the bench, and shot from Yaya Toure at a low angle in the penalty area. He once again broke through Breda's goal and changed the score to 3:0.

Hunteral's shot surprised Ye Qiu on the sidelines. Under Van Basten's training, this kid's shooting skills have improved a lot, especially the confidence in front of the goal. Unfortunately, his body is always a weakness, and his skills are not as good as Ibrahimovic.

The Swedes' progress is also very obvious. After all, in the past four months, he has been practicing for half an hour every day, which has made him make a lot of progress. However, it will undoubtedly take a longer time to change his football habits, so he can only take it slowly.

"If Kras' shooting skills are transferred to Zlatan, then this striker will be perfect!" Ye Qiu said with a sigh after seeing Hunterlaer score.

Bobby Hams, who was standing beside him, was also funny after hearing this. How could such a good thing happen in this world?

He won Breda 3:0 away, and Ajax's league ranking finally returned to third place, only behind Eindhoven and Feyenoord, but the gap between Eindhoven was only 2 points away, and the gap with Feyenoord narrowed to 7 points.

Because Feyenoord lost 0:1 to Eindhoven in the last round away game.

After playing Breda, Ajax rested in DeTok Most and began to prepare to go to Rome to challenge the team of gold medal coach Capello away.

…………

…………

Arriving in Rome, Ajax did not attract any attention.

Only three or four Italian and Dutch media reporters came to Da Vinci Airport to welcome Ajax.

There is no frequent reports in newspapers in previous lives that fans gathered in the waiting hall just to see the idol's style; or hostile fans besiege the bus just to interfere with the opponent's affairs, because they are just Ajax and Ye Qiu.

In the whole of Europe, most fans probably won't know Ye Qiu, because the head coach is not famous these days, and in Europe, almost no one is optimistic that Ajax can escape from Rome because their opponent is Rome and Capello.

William Hill gave the odds for this game by Roma, and the odds given by several other bookmakers were almost the same. Given that Roma City fans have always had the habit and tradition of attacking away fans, Ajax did not arrange or organize fans to watch the game away this time.

So, at that time, except for some Ajax fans who came to Rome independently, the scene will completely become the Roman world.

Ye Qiu was mentally prepared for this, but he still made himself look relaxed and confident in front of everyone, because this is the only thing he can do. Could it be that before the game is played, I have to show off a dead fish face that I have already lost?

That is definitely not Ye Qiu's style, nor is it a wise approach.

"I came to Rome City with only one purpose, that is, to win the away game!"

This is what Ye Qiu expressed when he walked out of the gate and was interviewed by an interview with the Amsterdam Evening Post reporter.

"Capello is a very respectable senior. I have watched many games from him. I know he is a very outstanding and experienced head coach, but I don't think this should be a reason for him to beat Ajax. On the contrary, my team and I have always had the tradition and resilience to defeat the strong with weak!"

What Ye Qiu said is undoubtedly cheering for tomorrow's game.

"Yes, I don't deny that we are not as strong as our opponents, but we are not a weak team. On the contrary, we are strong, we have a group of brave and strong soldiers who are not afraid of sacrifice. We will interpret our Ajax football style to everyone at the Olympic Stadium, and we will make everyone who underestimate us pay the most painful price!"

Ye Qiu was only interviewed by the Amsterdam Evening Post. He refused to visit some newspaper reporters from Italy because he did not like Italian media very much. What they were best at was fraud. For example, the Roman Sports Daily published a news report today, believing that Van der Fate was dissatisfied with Ye Qiu's arrangement to play as a substitute.

But in fact, when he was interviewed by Rome Sports, Van der Fate only expressed his wish to play the main force. Before making this remark, he also said that Van der Mede's recent performance is indeed excellent and worthy of the main force position. All he wants is to adjust his state after returning from injury and grab the main force position back.

This thing that should have represented healthy competition, but in the newspaper, it turned into Van der Fate's complaint.

Ye Qiu's rejection of Italian newspapers made these newspapers angry, and they published some pessimistic remarks about Ajax. On the contrary, Rome coach Capello said in an interview with the Italian Evening Post that Ajax is not as weak as the outside world imagined.

"They are undoubtedly a young team, but this is definitely not a team that lacks combat effectiveness. They have extraordinary competitiveness and we have to pay attention to it. So I told my players that in this game at the Olympic Stadium, we must be careful, because our opponent is a very difficult and resilient team."

Capello also mentioned Ye Qiu in an interview, but he gave more polite comments to the 26-year-old Chinese, because he admitted that he had never watched the Eredivisie game, but only paid attention to the video of Ajax's recent games. He felt that Ye Qiu had great ideas and ideas.

"Being able to lead Ajax at the age of 26 and win another Dutch Cup championship, he is undoubtedly a super rookie in the head coaching field. I look forward to meeting him!"
