Chapter 471: Learning from the Good Example of the Saints

80_80813 "Really? ”

With that conversation, David? Bernstein is now too convinced of Young Master Huan.

"Young Master Huan, please speak!"

Yang Huan looked at his excited appearance and knew it in his heart.

In fact, this guy is also an official fan, and although the FA is not as oily as the Premier League, it is not bad.

What's more, football is a sport with a very high status in the UK, and he occupies the position of chairman of the FA, which at first glance does not seem to be good, but in fact, the secret benefits are quite large.

"It's very simple, just go and draw a flatbread!"

"Draw flatbread?" David? Bernstein was stunned.

Prince William is also a little stupid, what does this football have to do with painting a big pie?

Young Master Huan smiled, "To put it simply, you have to design a set of detailed comprehensive football reform plans involving all aspects, so that everyone can see the FA's determination to promote reform, including reforming the FA's internal management system." ”

David? When Bernstein heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, yes, who wouldn't paint a big pie?

The slogan of reforming the FA's internal management system has been shouted for many years, and almost everyone feels that it is necessary, but it cannot be pushed forward because of some resistance.

But if you push it strongly during your tenure and put it into practice, won't it greatly meet everyone's expectations?

Besides, how to reform the internal management system, how can people outside know about it?

But soon, he sensed the problem again.

"Young Master Huan, there are two questions."

Yang Huan nodded, it's normal to have problems, if there is no problem, what is the reform?

"Tell me about it."

"First of all, this comprehensive football reform plan is not easy to do."

David? Bernstein grimaced, "To tell you the truth, the government and the FA were determined to push for youth reform around the millennium, and for that reason, we even spent tens of millions of pounds in 2001 to build the first-class St George's Academy Centre. ”

He didn't say that it was okay, but when he talked about the St. George's Youth Training Center, Yang Huan smiled.

This pit daddy youth training center was originally regarded as the British Clairefontaine, but the result is that it has been built for more than ten years, and the investment is getting higher and higher, and now it is more than 100 million pounds, and it is planned to be opened at a later date after the end of the Olympic Games.

England and Germany launched youth training reform almost at the same time, and Germany has cultivated Ozil, Gotze, and Thomas? Muller and Tony? Kroos and a large number of talented rookies are here, and your British youth training center is still in the womb, how bad do you say?

Of course, a very important reason is that there is no money!

Hearing Young Master Huan's laughter, David? Both Bernstein and Prince William were disgraced.

But what can be done? Who made our family poor?

"Over the years, we have visited many countries where youth training has excelled, such as France, Germany, and Spain, but we have never been able to come up with a specific youth reform plan."

"The main reason is that we have a special football environment!"

For this, Yang Huan agrees very much.

Many England fans say that it is a hooligan to copy Germany and Spain directly.

Is your football environment and social environment in England the same as in Germany and Spain?

Besides, the biggest feature of the Premier League is that it is fast-paced and high-intensity, and you use the German and Spanish youth training methods, well, if you really make you cultivate players with excellent skills, will the Premier League teams use it?

It's like Joe Cole, he's skilled, right? Cow, right? Zidane, who was known as England back then!

Can Chelsea use it?

The problem lies in the overall environment of English football!

It's easy to learn, it's hard to apply!

Many people regard the FA and even England's football professionals as fools, and they all think that people are purely corpse vegetarian meals, but they also have their own helplessness.

Since the 10s of the last century, after the English team was banned from the European competition by UEFA, the overall development of English football has lagged behind the European continent for a long time.

This backwardness is not only reflected in tactics, but even directly reflected in the academy.

Now that the emphasis is on technology, who doesn't know to value technology?

But the problem is, if you want to pay attention to technology, you have to have a coach who values technology to teach your children to play football, right?

All your previous youth coaches have emphasized the body, the scramble, and the technique, what should I do?

All fired?

Who will take it for a while?

Well, you said that you want to train a new batch of coaches on the horse quickly, who doesn't know?

But the problem is not so simple, the money for training is not the first problem, the real first problem is, you have to have a direction, right?

What do you want your country's style of football to look like?

At the very least, you have to have a direction so that everyone knows exactly what I'm going to learn.

And then design a system in this direction, otherwise, if you practice technology at the age of * and take the Spanish route, you will practice fighting in your teens, and take the British local route, so does it make sense?

When Yang Huan heard this, he also realized the helplessness of the English football industry in his heart.

It's as if they're standing at a crossroads, with roads in front of them, left and right, but they don't know which way they're going.

Relatively speaking, the club is much simpler, and it directly follows the tactical concept of the first team.

As for the youth talent, it doesn't matter, no, I will poach people directly from abroad, anyway, the Premier League team is not bad for money.

But can the FA roll out this model across the country?

If you really do this, you will definitely be drowned by the saliva of fans across the country!

'You know, we at Southampton are very serious about the academy.

David? Bernstein nodded, and that was to be recognized.

The Saints' academy is already the best in England, and I am afraid that only Manchester United can compete with it.

But in the past two years, Yang Huan has invested heavily in transformation, and at the same time introduced a large number of talents, and promoted high-tech auxiliary systems, all of which have brought great changes to Southampton.

The whole of England knows that the Saints Academy is full of talent and talent.

'Griffa and Madoni are both veterans who have been involved in football for decades and have always worked in the academy, Bielsa has always been ahead of his time, and there is also Harrison, the former FA technical director? Reid, as well as England academy specialist Matt? Crocker and others, as for me, have brought them all over and talked a few times about youth training. ”

The reason why Yang Huan talked to them was mainly for Chinese football, but it also talked about English football.

'The traditional strength of the English Academy is physicality and passion, with an emphasis on speed, running and confrontation, which is in line with the style of the English league.

David? Bernstein couldn't stop nodding, he himself has been engaged in football for decades, and he knows very well whether Yang Huan is right or not.

"With this characteristic of England, unlike Brazil, Spain, Germany and France, you can't copy it, but you can learn from the advantages of others for your own use, and I very much agree with Bielsa's sentence, Southampton's tactical style is the most suitable for English football!"

When he said this, Yang Huan didn't have the slightest hint of boasting, but was very strict.

'Ferguson is a great manager, but he's a pragmatist, he doesn't have his own set of ideas, Arsene Wenger has ideas, but his flow of possession is not suitable for England, Mourinho's style is more defensive, this style of play is not pleasing in England, so even when Chelsea have won two consecutive titles, the attendance on the pitch is frighteningly low.

"Benitez's style is balanced, but too rational and lacks passion, and the Istanbul miracle is not so much Benitez's masterpiece as I prefer to see it as a long-dull outburst of passion in English football!"

"Yes, that's right!" David? As soon as Bernstein heard this, his whole body was set on fire.

It was as if all the qiē had suddenly opened up!

Prince William also nodded uncontrollably, and his words were indeed incisive and unique.

'Bielsa's style of football is very passionate, with an emphasis on running and coverage, and you have to give the opposition high pressure and press at all times, and the tempo is very fast, which is very much in line with English football!'

Yang Huan still hasn't said a word, that is, Southampton's football is definitely one of the teams that has attracted the most attention from local fans in the Premier League this season, and the reason is simple, Bielsa's football is always full of passion.

That's what England fans want to see!

"But at the same time, Bielsa attaches great importance to technique, teamwork, creativity and imagination of the players, which in turn represents the future development trend of football, which is why I will say that the Saints' tactics are very suitable for England!"

David? Bernstein nodded his head again and again.

He couldn't figure out why Southampton was so popular.

But now Yang Huan says this, it really makes sense!

Isn't Southampton a traditional feature of English football?

It's just that the Saints have absorbed advanced football concepts and made their entire tactical system more advanced, which is more in line with the development trend of modern football.

In this way, the youth training of English football should learn from Southampton.

Apprentices, there is a future!

"After solving the directional problems of England's youth training, then the next two biggest problems have to be solved."

"One is the lack of youth coaches in England!"

Yang Huan's words, let David? Bernstein's brow furrowed again.

Prince William listened a little strangely, "How can there be a scarcity?" Aren't there a lot of them? ”

Yang Huan smiled and shook his head, "My Lord Duke of Cambridge, don't you know? Spain has 24,000 coaches with UEFA B and A professional coaching certificates, Germany 35,000, and guess what, how many in the UK? ”

Prince William could have heard Yang Huan's subtext, and hesitated slightly, "At least there must be more than 10,000 people, right?" ”

In terms of population, England has more than Spain and less than Germany, but when it comes to professional football clubs, then England casually throws them out a few streets, so the number of high-level professional coaching certificate holders may be few, but it will not be too outrageous.

But who knows, Yang Huan laughed when he heard it.

Even David? Bernstein was a little embarrassed.

"Not even 10,000?" Prince William was a little depressed.

"Nope!" Yang Huan nodded very affirmatively.

"Eight thousand?"

"Too many!"

Prince William was furious, and spread five fingers in his right hand, "At least five thousand, right?" ”

Who knows, Young Master Huan is still laughing, "It's still too much!" ”

"Don't we have less than 3,000 professional coaches in England?"

Yang Huan smiled silently this time.

Prince William suddenly looked at David? Bernstein, the poor FA president greeted him with a wry smile.

"We only have more than 2,700 coaches who have obtained UEFA professional coaching certificates!"

Niang Xipi's, it's not enough for people to have a fraction!

No wonder the level of youth training is so low!

It turns out that there are too few professional coaches!

"Eh, no, if there are really only more than 2,700 people, how many will be left after deducting professional clubs?"

David? Bernstein smiled helplessly, "In fact, even in professional clubs, there are also many youth coaches who do not have professional coaching certificates at all, and what is even more outrageous is that even some of the head coaches of the Premier League first team do not even have coaching qualifications, and the domestic media are not only ashamed of this, but proud!" ”

This question has always been the crux of English football.
