Chapter 35: Jonker's New Challenge
Jose Mourinho is always arrogant when he treats the media, but when he comes back to the team, he is very gracious, he treats the players and the staff.
However, there is always an exception to everything, and at the club, Mourinho always seemed to be a bit harsh and unkind to Jonker.
Playing a perfect game in the reserves, it stands to reason that you have to praise it, or talk to the heart and listen to the opinions of the players, after all, everyone at Chelsea feels that Jonker is a player who can compete for the main team, and he is in excellent form!
The outside media also has the same view, the "Daily Mail" made a comprehensive analysis of Chelsea's transfer this summer, and surprisingly, Jonker's deal was selected as the best transfer, not about cost performance and practicality!
In the analysis of experts, Mourinho bought Jonck, more to listen to the advice of his agent Mendes, it turns out that his own people are his own people, and Jungke's potential and the level he has now make this deal look like a good deal, and it is definitely a great value to buy.
Compared with those Mourinho's descendants, Jonk has more room to rise, and where the age is, as long as there are no accidents, Chelsea's future main striker must have a place for Jonk.
The outside world is all unanimously praised, and Jonk is also strange, his position is still unclear, and the first-team training is the same as usual, when he was at Ajax, how could there be some movement, and when he came to Chelsea Mourinho, there was no reaction at all.
Jonk decided to talk to Mourinho, he couldn't play the official game, which made him very unhappy, and the most disturbing thing was that he didn't know what the reason was for Lu Dao, he performed well, and he couldn't get the opportunity to play, and he couldn't be blind.
Of course, when he sat down with Mourinho face-to-face, Jonk would not question Mourinho so bluntly.
He also found out that this person is a little cautious, look at Mourinho's attitude towards the media, he knows that flaws must be reported, it is better to be careful in his words, and he also knows what is going on, Jonker is paying more and more attention to football games, not as dispensable as before, playing must be played well, and now there may be more love.
Mourinho was still very happy to see Jonker take the initiative to ask for a talk, and as soon as he came, his face turned into a smile and asked Jonk to sit down and talk.
"Boss, I've been in good shape lately, why can't I be given a chance?"
After Jonk sat down, there was no ink, nothing to say, open and honest.
"Your opportunity needs to wait a little longer, the recent training should be compared with special requirements, if you practice well, you have a chance, if you don't practice well, you can play as a substitute!"
There was no greeting between the two, there was a direct statement, Mourinho said his plan very simply, he wants to completely transform Jonker, such a player is too rare now, very comprehensive, and his physical fitness is so good that he is perverted, Mourinho has always wanted to make reasonable use of these characteristics of Jonker, which must be honed, and it is for this arrangement to play in the reserve team.
Mourinho found that Jonker didn't understand, so he had to patiently explain, "How do you feel about playing in the reserve game?" ”
"Cool, it's so cool!"
Jonk said how he felt without even thinking about it, and of course it felt good to wear two hats.
"This is the special request made to you, you may not know it, in the reserve team game, I ask the reserve team coach to give you more freedom in the front court, you can do whatever you want, of course you play well!"
'But it was just a reserve game, do you want to experience that feeling in the Premier League?'
Mourinho is just playing a stick to give a sweet date to eat, for a player like Jonker, he can see that giving a little sunshine can be brilliant in spring, and he must beat it from time to time, and it is absolutely not okay to blindly indulge.
This is true for the use of the game, and the same is true for the usual management.
Besides, Mourinho's cautious style will not rashly let Jonker play in an experimental position, if he doesn't play well, the offense will be disrupted, and it is not yet the experimental stage, which is that in Chelsea, Mourinho has a strong personnel reserve, which can support him to do that, change to a middle and lower team, and find that Jonker has such a talent, and he has already taken a risk.
Mourinho always says on the Chelsea training ground, efficiency!
Everything must be measured by efficiency, offense must be efficient, and coordination requires practical efficiency!
Jonker's experience is still too little, and it can't reach the efficiency required by Mourinho, especially in the passing effort, which is still too far behind, and other aspects are okay, passing is the biggest shortcoming of Jonker at present.
"Of course I do, but I know that I still have to pass the test of training!"
Jonk also understands that if he doesn't pass the so-called test, he wants to have the main force to play, which is obviously no fun.
Mourinho nodded, "Do you know what your biggest shortcoming is when you play on the field?" ”
"Break with the ball! When dribbling, share the vision of the ball and control the pass! ”
Jonk looked serious, when it came to his own shortcomings, he was also very sincere, there was nothing to hide, in fact, these are also the most prominent problems, what kind of shooting feeling, running rate in place! He felt like he was barely enough.
"Very good, what you said is exactly where I want to train you, after each training session, I allow you to practice more, and the content of the additional practice is to practice your passing!"
After hearing this, Jonk felt a little incredible, didn't he let him practice? Besides, what's the use of a striker practicing the ball so well, how good it is to practice shooting, and what a pity to waste time on passing the ball if you don't practice it!
I can't forget the feeling of being cool when I score a goal, and the fundamental reason why Jonker loves football is the feeling after scoring a goal.
When it comes to practicing passing, Jonk has some natural resistance.
"No surprise, I'm just going to practice passing! What I'm going to give you is the challenge of a whole new position, a position that is extinct in today's football, attacking the libero! ”
"What you have to bear is all the links in the attack, so the requirements for you have to be comprehensive, fortunately, I know that you have the foundation of the back, I have to say that you have learned a lot in your year at Ajax, you should thank the previous coach for his good intentions, because he also sees the potential you have, and wants you to be the absolute core of the team!"
"It's just that you always want to attack, to score! Well, I'll give you another chance now, attacking the free man, the core player basically won't score directly, and the offensive free man is different, you can divide the ball, you can rob the ball, and you can also attack the goal! The key is how you do it, so you have to be comprehensive, and in the absence of absolute shortcomings, you must also stand out! This position is not given by anyone, you have to fight for it yourself! ”
"Fight for it with strength!"
Jonk was thrilled when he heard it, "Boss, let's practice!" I can do it! ”
