Chapter 129 Chasing Feyenoord

A week later, Alkmaar defeated Valvik 3:2 away and won an eight-game winning streak. The next day, Alkmaar also successfully settled Robben's transfer contract. With little known to the outside world, Alkmaar brought the Dutch genius Robben to his youth training camp.

Although little is known to the outside world, it is a very sensation within Alkmaar. Almost everyone knows that Alkmaar has a little genius named Robben. The head coach Jiang Mu once went to Groningen to invite him personally.

On the first day of Robben's entry into the Alkmaar youth training camp, the training of the C2 age group attracted many fans, including many first-team players. They all wanted to see what the genius who shocked Jiang Mu had.

Group C refers to the age group of 13 to 14, C1 refers to the age group of 13, and C2 refers to the age group of 14.

The echelon division of Alkmaar youth training camp and Ajax training camp is basically similar. Here, the students are divided into six teams of F-E-D-C-B-A, each of which is a age group, such as: E=9-10 years old (E2-9 years old, E1-10 years old), D=11-12 Years old (D2-11 years old, D1-12 years old) and by analogy.

In addition, each age group is equipped with two head coaches (e.g. one person in Group E2 and one person in Group E1) and two managers (e.g. one person in Group E2) and one person in Group E1). They form an overall working group. When training the game, because the two teams are not scheduled to play in one day, the two coaches can participate in two games to observe and learn from each other

Jiang Mu, who was supposed to rest, also appeared on the training ground of the youth team. He watched the young players do all kinds of training with Davis, the head coach of the youth team, and assistant coach Zhao Guangming.

Robben has just arrived in Alkmaar and seems to be a little reserved, but every movement is done in place. In physical training, whether it is speed, strength and technical ability, Robben is obviously much higher than his age group, and he doesn't look like a player at the same level.

In the subsequent group match against young players under the age of 18, Robben showed a skill that stunned the fans. Without the cooperation of any teammates, the Dutch Peter Pan single-handedly killed the opponent's side. It was still useless for the other side to use two or three people. He could only watch Robben's lightning-like breakthroughs, passes and shots.

After playing for 40 minutes in a game, the score was 12:5. Robben scored 8 goals alone, which instantly conquered the hearts of all the fans. Many fans shouted that Robben was an alien reappearance, thinking that Ronaldo was just like this when he was young.

Jiang Mu also nodded secretly on the sidelines. Genius always has some different "premature". Robben is not only precocious in appearance, but also like a tough player in the game. He has no stage fright at all. His speed, technology and breakthrough courage have been fully demonstrated. It is impossible to see that he is a child under the age of 15.

After the training, Jiang Mu called Robben to his side and said, "Aryan, you are doing very well."

Robben was a little shy when he heard Jiang Mu's praise, "Thank you, I haven't played it yet."

Jiang Mu smiled and said, "How do you feel about them?"

Jiang Mu pointed to Robben's teammates. Robben said, "They can't do it. They are too slow, but they are a little better than my teammates in Groningen."

"Good boy."

Jiang Mu patted Robben on the shoulder, turned his face to Davis and Zhao Guangming and said, "I'll give Aryan to you and let him cross the level to participate in the national league. He needs to challenge the higher age group.

Alkmaar's young player teaching is like this. The 9-14-year-old echelon will play training games with teams one year older than them. From the age of 15 years old, they will play with domestic teams of the same age and will no longer play regional games. Among them, students of all ages participate in technical training, tactical training (individual and overall), football rules courses, strength and running ability training, personality training, interpretation of games and self-learning training under unified training methods and guiding ideology. Robben is only 14 years old and should participate in the regional competition, but Jiang Mu thinks that it is a waste for Robben to participate in the regional competition, so he let him participate in the national youth competition.

Davis turned out to be the assistant coach of former head coach Van Dijk. After Van Dijk was fired, he became the head coach of the youth team and was not fired. Later, he learned that it was the result of Jiang Mu's recommendation, which made him very grateful to Jiang Mu. Hearing Jiang Mu's words, Davis smiled and said, "I understand that Robben is certainly not suitable for playing with players of his age. Everything will be carried out according to your training plan."

Jiang Mu nodded. When Robben went to the restaurant for dinner, he said to Davis and Zhao Guangming, "Take some time. Let's make a detailed training plan for Robben. I'm going to let him participate in the Dutch League before the age of 16."

"Before the age of 16?"

Davis is a little petrified. He is used to the whimsy of Jiang Mu, but he is still speechless at this time. He is still a child at the age of 16. It is simply a joke to participate in the professional league.

"Yes, of course, it's not the main force. It's just to see it. It's mainly to let him train in the first team and fight against these adult players to improve his ability."

Davis suddenly realized and said, "I see, I see."

Three days later. Arjan. Robben continues to be familiar with the new training environment in the youth team. Jiang Mu led Alkmaar's first team to Heerenveen to challenge his opponent Heerenveen in the ninth round.

Heerenveen is not a strong team, and his achievements this season are not outstanding. At this moment, Alkmaar has won eight consecutive victories. The players are not skeptical about winning this game. Even if it is away, it is not a problem to win this game. They defeated Alkmaar, the leader of Eindhoven and Ajax!

I have to say that in terms of record, Alkmaar is far ahead. In terms of confidence, Alkmaar's players have exploded. In terms of cooperation, Alkmaar's players are becoming more and more tacit, and they can play clever cooperation every time. In terms of personal ability, Helenfin is not a problem.

However, Alkmaar, with such an idea, was hit by the opponent at the beginning of the game - they were one goal behind.

The opponent's No. 6 midfielder, Alkmaar's player can't even be named. But such a man opened the goal guarded by substitute goalkeeper Cesar with a long shot, and the game lasted less than five minutes!

The fast loss of the ball made Alkmaar's players a little unreacted. They were completely stunned. The first 30 minutes of the first half were terrible. Then it became normal. They bombarded around Heerenveen, and the score was won back by striker Kuyt, but the players had a lot of problems at this moment, and their state was also bullied. As a result, Heerenveen seized the opportunity to go to the next city at the end of the first half. This goal almost put the confident Alkmaar into hell.

At halftime, Jiang Mu was furious in the locker room. He denounced the players for their slackness and distraction, and immediately replaced them, replacing the players who were average and not excited enough to get off the court.

In the second half, the players who were awakened by Jiang Mu began to show their power. They no longer gave their opponents Helenfin a chance to besiege them at the front of the penalty area to practice shooting. Finally, in the 55th minute of the second half, Drogba drew the score to 2:2 again.

Then, Klose, who came on as a substitute, scored two goals in a row in the last 10 minutes. In the end, Alkmaar defeated Heerenveen 4-2 and won nine consecutive victories this season.

Compared with Alkmaar's thrilling victory, Feyenoord is still steady. They beat Roda JC 3:1 at home and also won 9 consecutive victories. They clenched Alkmaar tightly and waited for Alkmaar to make a mistake.

In the tenth round of the game, Alkmar's old opponent Feyenoord will challenge the strong team Utrecht, while Alkmaar will challenge Nijmegen away. This is a very important game. Alkmaar, who has won 9 games in a row, has reached a period of psychological fatigue, and their luck is getting worse and worse than before. Now For them, it is to hold on. Although no team can win the league championship, Alkmaar must hold on a little longer than Feyenoord so that they can win the initiative in the competition for the league championship.

Alkmaar's performance is indeed good. Under the pressure of their opponents like a mad dog, they still play at a high level. The tacit cooperation in the front court allowed Tomasson to score the 10th goal of the season, averaging one goal per game.

Then Alkmaar encountered the first red card of the season. Van Bommel, the midfielder, was sent off and was sentenced to a penalty. However, at this time, substitute goalkeeper Cesar saved the team, and his save made the opponent's penalty return.

Then Alkmaar resolutely defended. In the face of a team like Nimegen, Jiang Mu still put it down and continued to fight back. In the end, the player's performance was excellent. Finally, he won the game by defense. The score was only the goal scored by Tomasson.

Next, Jiang Mu and the players sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight and watch the two strong players of Feyenoord and Utrecht compete. At this time, all Alkmaar fans are supporters of Utrecht. They urgently hope that Feyenoord will take the lead in falling down. They are a little tired and relaxed by the team. Later, the Dutch Cup game began. They fought on two fronts, and Alkmaar hoped to get rid of their opponents in advance.

However, Feyenoord was more calm and bloody than Alkmaar. After two goals behind, they reversed Utrecht 3:2 away and also won ten consecutive victories, which made Alkmaar's hopeless.
