Seven hundred and sixty-four: Creation of the Red Rebel Army
764 Creation of the Red Rebels
The ribbon-cutting ceremony of the theme park was very noisy. The Red Rebels attached great importance to this project, and there was a reason why they chose Dubai. Among several cooperation areas with frequent contacts, Dubai offered the greatest discounts. .
Although this project of the Red Rebels is not risky, it will undoubtedly be beneficial if it can get more official attention. Moreover, Dubai's tourism and service industries are also developing rapidly. The Ministry of Commerce of the Red Rebels is very interested in this project. The potential is very promising.
As for the bankruptcy of Dubai that Xiao Yu is worried about, it is almost impossible to happen. At least the emirate of Abu Dhabi, which has rich oil reserves, will not sit back and watch Dubai go bankrupt.
After the Red Rebels cut the ribbon at the theme park, Xiao Yu had a meeting with Al Fahim, the boss behind Manchester City, at the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai. This was the first time that two of the richest people in Britain met. The topic turned out to have nothing to do with football, but about the Red Rebels theme park.
The Abu Dhabi Consortium is also very interested in this project and feels that this project has great potential, so it hopes to cooperate with the Red Rebels on this. Xiao Yu also welcomes this.
According to Xiao Yu's plan for the Red Rebels, the club serves as a platform to bring sponsors and consortiums together through various relationships and jointly develop with the Red Rebels as the core. Therefore, for cooperation, the Red Rebels Never say no.
However, Xiao Yu rejected Alfasim's interest in several players of the Red Rebels without hesitation.
We have never been a club that relies on selling superstars to operate. Although the price you offered is amazing, we are sorry, but we will not accept any price for Kaká, Ronaldinho, Messi, Aguero and France. There are offers for players like Bregas and Curtis, Terry and Evra are all our captains.”
Not for sale, this is the point that Xiao Yu emphasizes time and time again.
Alfasim is also a person who does big things. He is already satisfied with the cooperation agreement with the Red Rebels on the theme park project. As for football, he just talked about it casually.
Frankly speaking, Mr. Xiao Yu, you and your Red Rebels are both enviable, Al Fasim praised with admiration.
It has been a few years since he acquired Manchester City. Although Manchester City as a whole is developing in a good direction, it is still far inferior to the Red Rebels in many aspects, such as in terms of star-making ability, such as the operation of the team, and nothing else. Said that compared with the Commerce Department of Manchester City and the Commerce Department of the Red Rebels, it is far inferior.
It is actually possible to connect football and theme playgrounds, and through a variety of creative game facilities,
Bundling a large number of sponsors together, and then attracting them all through operations, in terms of operation and creativity alone, Manchester City is far inferior to the Red Rebels.
Although Manchester City's performance has declined in the past two seasons, in my opinion, these are the two most satisfying seasons for Manchester City. Xiao Yu said with a smile.
Why? Alfasim was a little strange. He was very interested in listening to his analysis of what this football senior said. After all, in the field of football, he was far behind Xiao Yu, but his In fact, he is about the same age as Xiao Yu.
Football has never been about piling up stars to win honors, so Chelsea's performance in the past two seasons has been poor. However, although Manchester City's performance has declined in the past two seasons, whether it is in terms of signings or in the team The construction is very targeted, and Van Gaal’s integration of the team is also very good.”
I have always believed that winning a football match is scored by the performance of the players on the field, the head coach is scored, and the club's operations off the field are scored. Only when all three aspects are at their best. , this team is the strongest.”
Having said this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh, At the end of last season, Manchester City won many games in a row. This proves that Van Gaal's training of Manchester City and the tactical indoctrination of Manchester City players have been done quite well. Manchester City does not need to make major adjustments next, they just need to make targeted improvements.
After hearing this, Al Fasim couldn't help but nod in praise: You are right, and Van Gaal said the same. No wonder the whole world says that you are the club owner who knows the most about football in the world.
Xiao Yu quickly waved his hand politely. In fact, he also knew that Van Gaal had two signing targets. One was Bayern defender Lucio, and the other was left defender Kolarov. Both players were If the key to Van Gaal's transformation of the defense is really obtained by Manchester City, the team's strength will rise to a new level again.
In the frontcourt, Vieira's condition has declined sharply and he has fallen out of favor. Tevez, Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart, and Sneijder form a frontcourt offensive combination, and Van Bommel and Yaya Toure play as a double midfielder. Yaya Toure, the Ghanaian midfielder who switched from the Red Rebels to Manchester City, is now a world-renowned midfielder star with both offense and defense.
Van Gaal is right. Yaya Toure's control and organizational skills are very good. He does have more room to play in Manchester City than in the Red Rebels.
I have always had confidence in Van Gaal. He is a manager who pursues perfection, both in football and in the club. This is what the two of us have in common, so I have absolute trust and support for him. Alfasim smiled.
However, although Manchester City is on a road to win, it will not happen overnight if it wants to defeat the Red Rebels. Whether it is in the UK, the United States, or Asia, what I have heard is Praising the strength of the Red Rebels is really enviable.
The Abu Dhabi consortium once wanted to acquire the Red Rebels, but Xiao Yu refused. Now, the Red Rebels' achievements and influence are far from what they were at the beginning, which makes Alfasim feel envious. , and also a little jealous.
If it had been the Red Rebels who bought it, perhaps it would be Abu Dhabi that has huge influence in the world today.

After talking with Alfasim, Xiao Yu took Chopin and Gao Ren and took the special car provided by the hotel for them to the Russell Club's training ground.
Eva Snow has been busy going to the artificial island for field inspections and surveys these days, so Xiao Yu took the initiative to take care of his two sons. But he is a man, how can he know how to take care of children?
So the easiest thing is to take them to the training ground. Gao Ren can play football with the team. Chopin will become excited when he sees football, even if it is just training. I believe this kid will also be able to play football when he grows up. Must be an avid fan.
After a month's vacation, the players started to focus more on physical reserve training after returning. In this regard, the Red Rebels have a master like Faria. His physical training with the ball is excellent, and he ensures that the players feel on the ball. Without losing weight, you can carry out physical reserve training, which is not something everyone can do.
Other clubs just do laps, but he can bring physical training into football.
After returning from vacation, the players all seemed to be in a good mood, and some cheerful laughter could be heard from time to time during training. The coaching staff was also very satisfied with the training atmosphere.
It seems like these guys are not slacking off even if they are on vacation, Xiao Yu said with a smile.
Mourinho nodded and said: Well, several of them returned to the team early and went to the training base to train on their own for a few days, so their physical fitness was maintained very well.
In addition to their outstanding strength and internal unity, the players of the Red Rebels also have a very important point, which is their strong self-discipline.
At the beginning, many people doubted the strategy of the Red Rebel Youth Training Camp. They thought that although they were playing football, why did they have such high requirements for chemical courses?
The Red Rebels' explanation for this is to ensure that players can continue their studies even if they are unable to play professional football in the future, but in fact there is another reason behind it, that is, the club hopes that players can have higher knowledge.
Chemical courses can keep a person rational and good at thinking. Those who have outstanding football skills but often cause trouble off the court are basically players with poor chemical courses. However, players who come out of the Red Rebels youth training camp are generally They all have high self-discipline and work ethics because they have more knowledge than other football colleagues.
Being good at thinking allows players to constantly explore their potential and make continuous progress. The biggest feature of the Red Rebels youth training players is creativity.
Players have high intelligence and the ability to read the game on the court, which allows them to make actions that are most in line with the overall situation at any time and at any time. However, it is very likely that they are just making an action unconsciously to fit the overall situation. It seems, full of creativity.
Martin Samuel even wrote a book specifically for this, called: Creating the Red Rebel
In this book, Martin Samuel highly praises the Red Rebels' youth training method that encourages creativity.
“Creativity is the foundation for the development of all walks of life. Without creativity, Newton would not have discovered gravity from the falling apple; without creativity, it would be impossible for Microsoft, Apple, Google and many other companies to appear; without creativity We humans can never imagine that one day we can fly in the sky, swim in the water, or even go into space.
Creativity is the root of everything, and in football stadiums that increasingly emphasize industrial assembly line coordination, creativity is increasingly curbed, but the Red Rebels have found a different approach. They cultivate and require creativity in a way that encourages creativity. players.
When four creative players come out together, what does it mean? A ton of goals.
Martin Samuel is obviously talking about the magic quartet of Aguero, Ronaldinho, Messi and Kaká. These four players are full of creativity, each of them is talented, and they are all outstanding football geniuses. Under the youth training system of the Red Rebels, their creativity in football has been kept intact.
Just like this season, Mourinho began to liberate the Magic Quartet and began to consciously give them relative freedom in the frontcourt. Within the team's overall tactical framework, they can run and cooperate as they please.
On the training ground, what Xiao Yu saw were the smiles of these four players playing happily. They could use their creativity and understanding of the game anytime and anywhere to make their own judgments and decisions. Even if this decision may be wrong, they still have to try.
This kind of attempt was encouraged by the coaching staff when they were still playing in the youth training camp.
Only by constantly trying and making mistakes can we cultivate this kind of outstanding creativity.
In addition to the Magic Quartet, Mourinho will further spread this seemingly disordered system to the entire team, thereby creating a system that is different from total offense and total defense, but full of freedom and full of freedom. Football that is invisible and at the same time hard to guard against, this is the pinnacle of the real Red Rebel football.
As Martin Samuel said in the book, Every industry encourages creativity, because everyone knows that creativity is the basis of industry development, and the football industry is no exception, but looking at the world, encouraging creativity How many teams are there that encourage creativity from the youth academy?
According to our investigation, many clubs with excellent youth training, including Barcelona and Manchester United, mainly encourage routine cooperation. For example, Barcelona, their youth training method is to have all players repeat the triangle from childhood to adulthood. Cooperation, and then turning this cooperation routine into an instinct, is this a kind of creativity?
So we can see that it is generally difficult for Barcelona players to perform well outside after leaving Barcelona, but players from the Red Rebels youth training camp can quickly integrate into other teams. The reason is very simple. What they learned from the Red Rebels youth academy was not the passing and receiving routines of football.
The most important thing that the Red Rebels youth training camp instills in players is the thinking ability and creativity. This is what keeps the players able to continue after leaving the youth training camp, whether they are promoted to the first team or switch to another team. The source of maintaining good development momentum”
Xiao Yu scanned the contents of Martin Samuel's book in his mind, and looked at the players training enthusiastically on the court. He couldn't help but smile. He was proud of the players' performance.
I heard that you held the first internal meeting of the new season last night. What was the decision? Xiao Yu asked casually.
Xiao Yu did not attend the internal meeting this time, but Walsh and Mark David attended the meeting.
Mourinho looked at the training on the court and smiled, They said they hope to win the championship in every competition this season and recreate the grand slam of the Grand Slam three years ago.
Xiao Yu was stunned and immediately laughed, With such great ambitions, do you want the club to go bankrupt?
According to the reward system, if they win another Grand Slam, almost all players will receive double their annual salary. Although it is pre-tax, the club will also have to pay double the salary for this.
Of course, Xiao Yu was joking. With more championships, the Red Rebels' income will also increase. Not much else, just for sponsors, the Red Rebels signed guarantees with many sponsors. Coupled with the floating commission contract, the better the Red Rebels perform, the more sponsorship money they will receive.
Therefore, Xiao Yu really hopes that the team can perform better.
Although the goal is this every season, I am very confident this season. I can see that their condition is maintained very ideally, the three lines of the team are getting better, and the main core players are starting to As we mature, it’s time for us to harvest.”
Mourinho smiled confidently.
