179 Gems of youth training
The position of technical director is not available in many English clubs, for example, when Tottenham Hotspur later invited Moniz to England, they specially set up a position for him, that is, technical director.
Muhrensteen first went to Manchester United as an academy coach, then left for a while, and when he was called back by Manchester United, his role was changed to technical director.
The new Manchester United also do not have the position of technical director at the moment, but Xiao Yu plans to invite Moniz to take the role, and this position is more like an assistant and adviser to the manager, taking care of the affairs of the academy and the training of players.
"We're really sincere, Mr. Moniz, Kassel told me about your abilities and I know your level and ambitions, and frankly, at the moment our new Manchester United is just a small team, but we will be promoted this year, we will continue to upgrade next year, and in the future we will be promoted to the Premier League, we will go to Europe, and you will be the man behind us!"
Moniz obviously didn't expect Xiao Yu to have such big ambitions, but he couldn't believe it all at once, because he had already passed the age when people would be fooled, although Xiao Yu was indeed very rich.
"Of course, we will definitely not be less than PSV Eindhoven in terms of salary, and we will give you enough power to coach the players in our academy, and we will set up two or three football schools in Africa and South America in the coming year, and we hope that when the time comes, we will be able to use your training system as the core to train players for football schools."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yu paused deliberately and said with a smile: "I think the purpose of Mr. Moniz's hope to create a football school is to make your training system not be buried, and now I will help you realize your wish!" ”
Moniz was stunned when he heard this, he didn't know where Xiao Yu knew his wish, because he had never mentioned this matter to anyone, not even Kassel.
But Xiao Yu is a time-traveler, and he knows that Moniz's brother Mulenstin once established a football school, which specifically uses Gufren's training system as the core teaching material, and the purpose is to carry forward Gufren's training theory.
Both of them were Gufren's students, and their wishes should naturally be the same.
"Yes, Ricciardo, our new Manchester United academy is getting better and better, the kids around us are coming to us for training, we are short of manpower, I hope you can come and help me, not only you, but René, I heard that he is not very valued at the NEC club!"
Moniz sneered, "Although the Dutch football circle is no longer as prejudiced as it used to be, they still don't necessarily like change, not to mention that Rene is not taken seriously, even I am not taken seriously in Eindhoven. ”
In today's Dutch football circle, Michels and Cruyff are still admired, and although Gufren's theory has been accepted a lot, there is still a long way to go if it is to be taken seriously.
"In that case, then call René, you come to Manchester to help me, you know, our club and our owner have big goals, we have been established for less than three years now, but we are already the most favorable contenders for the championship of the English League C, just by virtue of this, you should believe that we are not the kind of club that is willing to be ordinary, and Mr. Xiao Yu also said that the club will provide you with space to show your talents, isn't this what you expect?"
Moniz thought for a moment, looked at Xiao Yu, and then looked at Kassel, both of whom were waiting for his reply.
"But I have a contract with PSV Eindhoven and I'm afraid ......"
"Don't worry, Ricardo, I'll settle the contract matter and see how much the termination fee is needed, our club will help you pay it, and please tell Mr. Mulenstin that we are willing to help him pay the termination fee!" Xiao Yu made a very wealthy decision.
In fact, the new Manchester United really can't give people confidence now, the only thing that can give people confidence is Xiao Yu's money, although money may not be able to rush to the Premier League, but money can at least ensure the operation of the club, and if you don't have money, don't want to rush to the Premier League.
Hearing Xiao Yu say this, Moniz naturally did not hesitate any longer, immediately nodded in agreement, and then made a phone call to René Muhrensteen of the NEC club in Nijmegen, who immediately rushed from Nijmegen to Eindhoven as soon as he heard this.
The distance between the two places is not far, so Xiao Yu and the others specially waited for him in Eindhoven.
The four then discussed the partnership, with Xiao Yu promising that the club would adopt their training system in football schools in South America and Africa, as well as in the new Manchester United academy.
Since the tactical system developed by Cassel and Mourinho has established itself in the new Manchester United, and the first team and youth team are also developing players according to this system, Xiao Yu is not worried that the arrival of Moniz and Mouhrensteen will change the tactical style of the new Manchester United, on the contrary, he feels that the arrival of these two technical talents will make the tactical operation more fluid and natural.
Technique is a necessary prerequisite for all players to execute tactics, Moniz and Mouhrensteen are only responsible for the technical aspects of the team, while Mourinho and Kassel are the real decision-makers when it comes to player use and tactics.
Xiao Yu began to look forward to what kind of tactical system would it be when Mourinho, a master tactician, fused everything into a furnace and refined a tactical system that completely belonged to the new Manchester United?
In this year's League C, the new Manchester United showed a strong attack and solid defense, but in the eyes of many commentators, this is because the players of the new Manchester United run very actively, and the players cooperate with each other frequently, and the new Manchester United players play not softly, but like the style of all teams in the north of England, full of strength and blood.
Xiao Yu knows that this is the beginning of Mourinho's tactical concept, and when this concept is deeply rooted in the team, that is the moment when the real fruits are reaped.
I just don't know when this fruit will ripen!

After staying in Eindhoven in the Netherlands for a few days, Xiao Yu helped Moniz solve the contract problem with the Eindhoven club, and the club did not have much difficulty with Moniz's departure, after all, Xiao Yu had agreed to pay the termination fee, so he was very happy to let Moniz leave.
Mulensteen didn't need a termination fee, and the NEC club didn't really care about the retention or departure of a youth team coach, so when Mulensteen offered to leave, NEC immediately agreed.
After gathering in Eindhoven, the four of them took a flight back to Manchester.
Like all those who come to Newton Heath for the first time, Moniz and Muhrensteen were a little incredulous when they saw the new Manchester United training base, because in their eyes, it was difficult to find such a standardized and modern training base in the Netherlands.
It can also be seen from this that Xiao Yu's determination to run the club.
"No matter how good the training base is, it is useless, even if it is just a dilapidated old training ground, it can also cultivate talented superstars, so the future of the club still depends on you!" Xiao Yu said encouragingly.
This made Moniz and Muhrensteen look at him a little impressed, at least this is a boss who knows the way of football very well, and does not think that he can do anything with a little money like other rich people.
After entering the training base, Kassel acted as a guide and introduced the environment and everything to Moniz and Mulenstin, and when he introduced him to the laboratory, the two newcomers were amazed and admired.
Walking through the first-team training ground, Cassel took Moniz and Muhrensteen to the youth team's training grounds, where he could see Paul Hampson and a group of young players preparing for the upcoming under-18 game.
"That little guy has a lot of skills and a very good sense of the ball, and if you work on it a little more, the future will definitely be limitless!" Moniz saw at a glance Messi, the most technically outstanding on the field.
'His name is Leo Messi, the Argentine, he's been at our club for two years and he's a youth gem. Kassel introduced with a smile.
"And the big man, who is very physical, has a lot of speed and explosiveness, and he has good dribbling skills, but he needs to improve when he touches the ball, and he needs to improve his shooting ability!" Muhrensteen saw Ismael Miller.
"That's going to have to be more up to you." Cassel laughed.
Moniz and Muhrensteen then looked at Michael Johnson and John Obi Mikel, who felt that these young players were very talented and could become rising stars in the future with a little adjustment.
After watching the youth team's training, Kassel took advantage of the gap between the first-team training and took them to the first-team venue and introduced them to the head coach Jose Mourinho.
Although it was only the first time they met, they had been in football for many years and were on the training pitch at the same time, and Mourinho immediately discussed with them about the training of the new Manchester United.
Moniz and Muhrensteen knew in their hearts that they should show some real skills to win the trust of the manager at this time, so they also carefully observed the training of the first team, and tried their best to express their opinions and analysis, for example, they thought that the team had several players whose skills were quite rough, such as Olich, this guy's skills were really rough, but his hard work on the field was very admirable.
Moniz and Muhrensteen also mentioned Essien, De Rossi, Evra, Terry, Curtis and others, believing that if these players can be more refined in their skills, they will be more helpful to the team, and the team's combat effectiveness will also be greatly improved.
Mourinho was pleased with the suggestions of the two new assistants, and the most rare thing was that they both came up with training methods to help the players improve and improve, which Mourinho appreciated the most, and he said that he would invite Moniz and Moulenstin to the office for a detailed discussion after training, which also proved that he had accepted these two men.
Xiao Yu in the distance saw that they were talking happily, and he was also happy in his heart, but he couldn't help but think in his mind, who would Ferguson find to replace him if he snatched Mulensteen?
