Yang Yang had personally agreed to Utrecht's head coach Eric Tenghager to allow him to come to DeTok Most to observe Ajax's training, but he did not expect that the Dutch bald coach was so impatient.

When Ajax first opened camp, he couldn't wait to come to Amsterdam.

Udrecht is very close to Amsterdam and is not far from the round trip, so it is quite convenient.

Yang Yang welcomed Tenghager's arrival and said that he could watch Ajax's training on the sidelines at any time.

In the following days, Tenghager appeared in DeTok Most on time every day, trained with the team, and then had lunch with Yang Yang and other coaching teams. After watching the training class in the afternoon, he returned to Udrecht.

It is said that in order to observe Yang Yang's training, he even entrusts the winter break training camp in Udrecht to his assistant.

Although Yang Yang cannot be open and honest about Teng Hager, he does not hide his own personal information. As long as he sees and is interested in it, Yang Yang will speak out everything he says, and often times he will patiently explain until Teng Hager understands it.

A week before the winter break training, Ajax mainly conducted physical fitness reserve training, and the intensity was not as strong as the training at the beginning of the season, but Pintus' training was still very strict. He classified players and trained in groups according to different situations of the players, which made Tenhager feel the uniqueness of Ajax training.

At first glance, this is just grouping players, but it is not difficult to find out how to group scientifically and effectively is the means of the Ajax coaching team. Behind this is the overall coordination of Ajax's entire coaching team, technical team, data analysis team and medical team.

Yang Yang's close friend Winston Bogard is the top leader in coordinating various trainings. He is Ajax's athletic performance manager, who is fully responsible for the athletic performance training of the team, including the youth team, and every player.

For this reason, Winston Bogard was specially arranged by Yang Yang to study in Turin, Italy to study for a doctorate in related majors.

Just this point made Tenhager feel the uniqueness of Ajax.

Many people are curious why Ajax can maintain high-intensity pressing and pressure in the ninety minutes this season, and why can't he decline in physical fitness after 60 minutes like Klopp's Dortmund and Liverpool?

Tenghager felt that he had found the answer!

...

In addition to physical training, Yang Yang's team's technical and tactical training also has its own unique features.

He likes to train in group confrontation, and at the same time, cameras are installed in every corner of the DeTok Most training ground. After each group confrontation, Yang Yang will immediately retrieve the video data from the club database through his tablet computer, combine the videos in his hand to analyze with the players who have just left the game.

He is generous in his performance and gives praise to him. He also points out criticism for some mistakes without hesitation, but will give guidance. The purpose is to use the players to slowly correct some of their shortcomings and deficiencies when they are still fresh in memory.

Ajax's players have obviously adapted to Yang Yang's training method. Except for Haaland, who has just joined the team, everyone is very familiar with them.

When it comes to Haaland, Tenhager couldn't help but want to drool.

Utrecht lacks a strong center, so when he sees Haaland, his first idea is to loan him to Utrecht and play in the second half, or Haaland doesn't work, so it's OK to loan Boadu.

But Yang Yang's attitude was very tough, and he didn't rent or sell it!

"It's so extravagant!" Tenhager was very depressed. "Don't you think it's a waste of talent if you have a center like Jovic, as well as Haaland and Boadu? I'll lend him one to Udrecht, and I promise to give him enough game training."

But Yang Yang replied with a smile, "They do not lack games, the Dutch Eredivisie, the Champions League, the Dutch Cup, and the Dutch League. Staying in the team to train will help them more."

This touched Tenghager deeply.

If he had contacted Ajax in depth, he might have thought Yang Yang was nonsense.

The most important thing for young players is to participate in the game. What is more important than the game?

But after coming to Ajax, he really felt that Yang Yang was right.

In the same game, players can get exercise when they go to Utrecht or stay in Ajax, but what Ajax can provide is far from what Utrecht can imagine.

Throughout history, Ajax is best at cultivating semi-finished products. After Yang Yang brought more advanced training concepts and various high-tech means, he is undoubtedly opening up a gap with Eredivisie, even other European teams, and even top giant teams.

...

"How do I feel that you are very enthusiastic about him?"

After seeing Tenghag off, Harvey Alonso asked Yang Yang in confusion.

The Dutch bald coach has been traveling between Amsterdam and Utrecht for a week. He will not come again from tomorrow because he will also start to busy leading Utrecht to prepare for the second half.

Yang Yang nodded frankly, "He is a believer in Ajax football. He has learned from Van Gaal and likes Cruyff's football philosophy. He has worked with Guardiola for two years in Bayern Munich. He is different from other Dutch head coaches."

Harvey Alonso understood what Yang Yang meant, "Then I'll turn around and let the technical team observe him well?"

Yang Yang looked back at his best friend and couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Harvey Alonso was confused.

"I've made arrangements long ago." Yang Yang walked away with a smile.

He has basically completed his expected mission in Ajax, and he will do his best to lead the team forward. He will take whatever step he can. In the summer, if all parties agree, he wants to return to Real Madrid.

In this case, he was optimistic that Tenghager would take over his shift.

This is one of the few head coaches in the Eredivisie who can be recognized by him.

Even Fan Bomel, who led Eindhoven to second place, felt that Yang Yang was not as good as Tenhager.

As for the reason, maybe the two have similar technical and tactical concepts, or maybe Teng Hagg is a bald strongman.

Every time he saw his bald head, Yang Yang couldn't help but want to call Zidane.

…………

…………

On the evening of January 19th, Cruyff Stadium in Amsterdam.

After a month of winter break, the Eredivisie finally rekindled the battle.

In the 18th round, Ajax faced Helenfin at home.

The game just started thirteen minutes after the assist from Ndombele, Jovic broke through Helenfin's goal.

But the good times didn't last long. One minute later, Helenfin scored a goal through a quick counterattack.

In the 16th minute, Sancho assisted from the right, Jovic scored another goal and scored twice to help Ajax further expand the score.

Then, the game completely entered the rhythm of Ajax.

First, Nerez scored a goal in the 28th minute, and then in the 45th minute, Nerez dribbled the ball from the left and passed it to Van der Beck, who caused a foul by Helenfen's defender. Jovic calmly scored a penalty and scored a hat trick.

After the second half of the game changed sides, in the 51st minute, Sancho added icing on the cake to Ajax, five to zero!

After that, Ajax completely dominated the situation on the field, and Yang Yang also made substitutions and adjustments one after another.

Boadu came on as a substitute for Jovic in the 80th minute. Just three minutes later, the Dutch young player scored and scored another goal for Ajax, locking the score at 6-0!

...

This is the first time that Yang Yang has sat in the coach's seat as the head coach and participated in a post-match press conference after the game.

He was very satisfied with the players' performance and emphasized Jovic.

"He is a player who is always hungry and he never feels satisfied. It's good, this is the basic quality that a top scorer must have, and I think he can perform better and more comprehensively."

Overall, this is Jovic's advantage.

Yang Yang also hopes that he can steadily improve his comprehensive strength on the basis of maintaining comprehensiveness, and then make himself at the European first-tier center and even enter the ranks of the strongest center.

It's hard, but he believes Jovic has such potential.

The performance of the two wingers, Nerez and Sancho, is obvious to all, but Yang Yang does not think they are very similar to themselves back then.

"They will not become anyone, they will become Neres, Sancho, they will shock the entire European football world, and even, they have already brought surprises to European football!"

Anyone can see that Yang Yang is very satisfied with the group of players he trained himself. He kept laughing from ear to ear when commenting. Whether it is the frontcourt, midcourt or backcourt, including goalkeeper Onana, Yang Yang gave extremely high comments.

"In my mind, Onana is the most underrated goalkeeper in European football. Many people do not trust his strength for various reasons, but I think he will prove with better performance that the bias of these people is wrong and stupid."

...

Yang Yang's first press conference gave enough face to the major media in the Netherlands and even the world, answered many questions, held it for more than an hour, and the response was also very enthusiastic.

Not only are the media satisfied, but the fans are satisfied, but even the Ajax players are very satisfied.

Jovic, Neres, Sancho, Frankie DeJong, Van der Beck, Dricht, Odega and others all stood up to support Yang Yang, thanking Yang Yang for their recognition and affirmation.

Goalkeeper Onana was so moved that he almost cried in an interview with the media. He expressed his gratitude to head coach Yang Yang for his trust in him. "He is a head coach and teammate full of unparalleled personal charm. I am even willing to sacrifice my life for him, let alone play and train hard for him."
