Mortensen looked directly at Tong 1 and asked the question in everyone's mind: "Why are you optimistic about the German team?"
Why are you optimistic about Germany?
Do you even need to ask?
Naturally, it’s because of Germany’s complete youth training system.
The talent explosion in German football in the past ten years is the biggest reason!
Tong 1 said: "Why am I optimistic about the German team? Then it starts with a phone call in 1996."
Everyone was confused and very curious, staring at Tong Yi.
What happened in 1996?
Tong 1 said directly: "Although the German team won the European Cup in 1996 with the English superstar, the then chairman of the German Football Association, Egidius Braun, saw huge hidden dangers in German football."
What's the hidden danger?
Hiller and others were very curious and stared at Tong 1 closely.
Ferdinand also asked: "What's the hidden danger?"
After all, the German national team has just won the European Cup. What hidden dangers can there be?
Tong 1 said: "Braun realized that as this group of German internationals aged, the talent of the German national team was somewhat lacking! More importantly, from 1983 to 1996, Germany only had the U16 youth team. I won the European Youth Championship several times in 1984 and 1992, but I have never won any other championships."
Ferdinand and others really didn't realize this problem.
Tong 1 said: "So, one night in 1996, Braun called Dietrich Wiese, the head coach of Liechtenstein at the time, and wanted Wiese to come up with a feasible youth training system."
Did Germany's rise start so early?
Hiller immediately asked: "Why this Wiese?"
Everyone also has such doubts.
Tong 1 said: "It's very simple, because Wiese made outstanding contributions to German football youth training during the 10 years from 1970 to 1980. He is Braun's youth training master!"
Everyone nodded slightly to show their understanding.
Tong 1 continued: "At that time, the German Football Association wanted to bid for the 2006 World Cup, so they needed to implement this youth training system as soon as possible. By then, they would be able to have a super strong German team in 2006, and then win the World Cup at home. champion."
No one thought that Braun would have such great ambitions.
What's more important is that it's okay to be ambitious, but they actually implemented this plan, which is amazing.
This is definitely a contribution to German football.
Tong 1 said: "After receiving the invitation from the chairman, Wiese immediately left Liechtenstein and returned to Germany. After nine months of investigation, he and his assistant Sauter finally proposed a plan: the German Football Association would organize a nationwide Establish 115 regional training centers to form a national youth training network, and make every effort to train and develop children aged 13-17 to play football. Children under 12 years old are responsible for the regional football associations. Then, at a fixed time every year, 13-year-olds and above will be given the responsibility. Children aged 10 to 10 will be assessed, and those who succeed in the assessment will enter national football regional training centers for further studies. According to Wiese, the original budget will reach 2.5 million marks, which is more than 800,000 pounds!"
In 1996, £800,000 per year was not a small sum.
Tong 1 continued: "Braun felt that the cost was too high, so he did not implement it immediately. He wanted to see the performance of the German team in the 1998 World Cup before making a decision."
Everyone felt that Braun's approach was correct.
They all think Braun's choice is reasonable.
Tong 1 said: "In 1998, Germany's results did not meet expectations, but the French national team won the final championship.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, which made Braun firm up his idea of establishing a youth training system. Because France won the championship by systematically cultivating young talents. "
Ferdinand and others nodded, this is really the case.
Tong 1 also said: "Four weeks after Germany was eliminated in the quarter-finals of the World Cup in France, the German Football Association approved Wiese's plan to comprehensively build the German football youth training system, and also increased the budget to 3.2 million marks. , a total of 121 regional training centers have been established. They provide two hours of training every week to 4,000 football teenagers aged 13-17. In addition, another 2 million German marks have been allocated to regional football associations to train about 10,000 football youths under the age of 12. Football talent. These are the reasons for the explosion of German football talents."
hiss!
After hearing this, the famous English players at the scene knew why Tong 1 was optimistic about the German team.
Tong 1 also said: "Not only that, in the 2001-2002 season, the German Football Association also issued an administrative order that all teams participating in the Bundesliga must have their own youth training centers and complete youth teams at all levels. Only then can they obtain a league license and participate in the Bundesliga. And Bundesliga football clubs must have a complete youth training center by the 2002-2003 season at the latest, otherwise they will not be able to play in the professional league."
It can be seen that Braun and the German Football Association have really done a lot for the development of German football.
Tong 1 continued: "At the beginning, many Bundesliga teams refused, but the German team's performance in the 2000 European Cup was very poor, which aroused strong dissatisfaction among the people and called for the reform of German football. At that time, many German football teams The teams also had a financial crisis, and it was difficult for them to come up with transfer fees and then train them themselves. So they took advantage of the situation and obeyed the requirements of German football. From then on, German football began to vigorously fight for youth training from top to bottom. So far, the German Football Association has 366 football training centers across Germany. Boys over 11 years old are collectively trained by these training centers. The Football Association trains at least 1,300 youth training coaches every year and leads the training of 600,000 young teenagers. Every year The budget has also increased to 14 million euros. Moreover, the leagues of German youth teams at all levels are also very complete, and they also have games to play, which forms a virtuous cycle..."
Ferdinand and others were all fascinated. To be honest, they really didn't expect that the German Football Association had done so many things and persisted for so many years. From 1998 to now in 2014, 16 years have passed, and they are still insisting that the youth training system of the German Football Association is still proceeding in an orderly manner.
No wonder there has been an explosion of young German football talents in the past ten years.
None of this comes by accident.
How much effort they put in behind the scenes, how much time, energy and money they invested.
No wonder German football should rise!
Tong 1 continued: "At present, the German Football Association's investment in youth training has not been reduced, but has been increasing year by year. You can imagine how terrifying this is."
hiss!
Ferdinand and the others really felt the pressure. After hearing Tong 1's words, they suddenly felt that England really did not deserve to win this World Cup.
Tong 1 also said: "Almost all the members of the German national team came out of this youth training system. They can be said to be very familiar and have a very tacit understanding. More importantly, they are all very talented. They have talent, strength, and after training in the past few years, they have matured. It is time for the German team to pick the fruits of victory! Therefore, I think the favorite to win this World Cup is the German team! Even, I think , the champion is the German team.”
Everyone really has no reason to oppose Tong 1.
However, at this time Lineker said: "Then the host
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
What about the Brazilian team? The Brazilian national team is not weak now, and this is their home court. With the right time, place and people, do you think they can not win the championship? "
Everyone thought so too, and turned to look at Tong 1. They all wanted to see how Tong 1 could quibble?
Tong 1 smiled and said: "Do you really think the Brazilian team is in the right place at the right time?"
Everyone was confused and didn't know what was going on.
Tong 1 said: "The right time and place, maybe the Brazilians have taken advantage of it. But the most important thing, the Brazilian team did not take advantage of it at first. On the contrary, this has become a source of huge pressure for them!"
Everyone already understood what Tong Yi was going to say.
Tong 1 said: "In fact, when the Brazilian Football Association first proposed applying for the World Cup, it attracted opposition from the people of Brazil. Because Brazil's domestic economy was experiencing problems at that time, the people could be said to be living in dire straits. They He did not want the country to waste time and money to build more stadiums to host the World Cup. In order for Brazil to win the right to host the World Cup, then Brazilian President Lula said that he would use his own money to build stadiums and construction Basic transportation facilities reassure the people. But what happens next? More than 95% of these expenses are used by the national finance and people's taxes. Even when the stadium was being built, many workers went on strike to demand unpaid wages. There have been many incidents of workers being killed or maimed. In addition, the Brazilian government is now trying to make money through the World Cup and has increased ticket prices and public transportation fares. This has angered the Brazilian people even more. In last year's At the Confederations Cup, various demonstrations and even violent demonstrations occurred one after another. Even now, the Brazilian people's games have never stopped. Do you think this is a reflection of Brazilian harmony?"
Uh~!
Shearer, Ferdinand and others were choked by Tong 1 and were speechless.
Tong Yiji said: "The more this happens, the more important it is for the Brazilian national team to win the World Cup. Because only in this way can the public's anger be calmed and the public feel that it is worthwhile. Therefore, the Brazilian government and the Brazilian Football Association will go crazy on the contrary. They put pressure on the Brazilian national team and ordered them to win the World Cup. And the invisible pressure from the Brazilian people is even greater! Under such heavy pressure, do you think the players of the Brazilian national team can withstand it? Once If they fail to win the World Cup in Brazil, what will be the consequences for them? I think many Brazilian superstars playing in Europe dare not even return home, and have to flee Brazil in despair overnight and fly back to Europe! Under such circumstances , do you think the Brazilian team can really win the championship?"
Uh~!
Ferdinand and others were speechless.
Tong 1 is still saying: "And do you think Neymar has really matured now? Can he be able to carry the Brazilian national team? There are no absolute superstars in this Brazilian national team! In such an important situation, Under pressure, I don't think Neymar can withstand the pressure. Anyway, I am not optimistic about the Brazilian national team. Maybe they can reach the semi-finals, but they will definitely not win the championship."
To be honest, Ferdinand felt that he had been convinced by Tong 1.
He thinks what Tong 1 said makes sense.
It is really unlikely that the Brazilian national team will win this World Cup. Does Tong 1 really have such a comprehensive view of the problem? If I study with Tong Yi for a few years, will I become an excellent head coach in the future?
Ferdinand was lost in thought!
At this time, Mortensen said: "David's analysis is very exciting, and I agree very much. It is really amazing! So David, would you like to share your thoughts on tomorrow's opening game?"
Everyone looked at Tong 1 again, and Tong 1 said calmly: "I think Brazil International Team should beat Croatia 3-1 tomorrow and get a good start. Now that the pressure is not too great, Neymar should have a good performance. Maybe He can score twice!"
