16 Ronaldo II?
After winning the ball, it seemed that even the air became sweet.
This is the mood of Ajax chief scout Tony Browns Slottz on Sunday morning.
Last night, at the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium, Ajax performed very well against the visiting Grafsharp.
After being scored by opponent Hans van der Hal just three minutes into the opening game, Ajax's players quickly adjusted and quickly equalized the score by midfielder Yakub assisted Van der Fate in the 16th minute.
If the first half was evenly matched, then the second half was completely dominated by Ajax, Van der Fat, Sneider, Garasek, Pinal, Maxwell and Bocari scored goals one after another, and finally helped Ajax beat Grafsharp seven to one at home and completed a refreshing victory.
This victory greatly relieved the pressure on Ajax. At the critical moment, two local rookies, Van der Fatt and Sneider, also showed their core temperament, which made the team feel very pleased.
In the four games where Swedish center Ibrahimovic was absent, Van der Fate performed extremely well, scoring six goals in four games, and once again suppressing the Dutch top winger Van der Mede, who shined this season.
Van der Mead is Ajax's best performance this season. The right winger has been favored by many giant teams in the Champions League and has been rumored to leave this summer.
This is also the heart knot among the team, including head coach Koeman.
Defense is the biggest problem for Ajax. Young players such as Hetinga and Chiwu are not mature enough, but their offense is quite sharp. They are the team with the best offense in the Dutch Eredivisie this season. Many players such as Van der Fate and Ibrahimovic have scored double digits, which can be said to be blooming everywhere.
Among them, Van der Mead on the right is a crucial right assaulter on the team. If he really transfers and leaves the team, it will inevitably bring immeasurable losses to the team's offense. However, if there are really big teams bidding, it will be difficult for Ajax to keep Van der Mead.
As early as the mid-1990s, after Van Gaal's generation of Champions League champions fell apart, Ajax was no longer able to retain the stars and completely became a star processing factory for European giants.
But it is precisely because of this that Ajax pays more attention to scouts than ever before.
Digging out semi-finished products, sculpting them, and selling arbitrage at high prices has become a consensus among Ajax's management and is also the way for Ajax to survive in the fiercely competitive European football world.
Ajax won 7-1, but Eindhoven lost 1-3 to Feyenoord away. Kezhmann scored a goal, but Van Hoytonk scored a hat-trick, including two penalty kicks, which caused great controversy.
But no matter what, Ajax successfully caught the league points gap to three points.
With two rounds left in the league, everything is still possible.
Slotz walked into the scouting office of DeTok Most, a training base at Ajax, with such a pleasant mood.
Ajax's scouting network is spread all over the world, and it goes without saying that the Netherlands is the Netherlands. Nordic and Africa are also the areas where Ajax scout resources pay the most attention to. Every day, scouts all over the world, or partners with Ajax contacts send player information and tracking reports.
The assistant will collect these reports into volumes and deliver them to Slotz's desk on time every morning.
As always, the first thing Slotz did after work was to read this report.
Although Ajax is no longer as glorious as the early 1990s, the lean camel is bigger than a horse and is still a well-known team in European football. It is also known for its youth training, which naturally makes young players around the world flock to it.
There are countless player information sent to the team every day. Slotz has long been used to it. He browsed it roughly and picked out a few more interested players to learn about it. Even when he saw the finale, about the news of the youth football match around Amsterdam, an amateur scout recommended a wing player who claimed to be Ronaldo II, but it did not attract his attention.
Ronaldo II?
These days, there are not many players who have been given this title, but how many are real?
Ronaldo II is the best pendulum?
And he was actually a right back who only played two games...
Slotz shook his head and closed the report in his hand, put it casually on the corner of the table, and smiled bitterly in his heart, "The quality of scouts these days is getting lower and lower. It seems that we should make some rectifications."
Technical director Leo Benhack had a romantic scandal with the club's young secretary, claiming that he would leave the team this summer and get a good separation, but in fact he has resigned now and is no longer in Amsterdam.
The management is currently looking for a suitable technical director, and it is said that the chairman has already been selected. Slotz, who currently serves as part of the technical director, feels that he should take the opportunity to rectify the scouting network so that he can achieve outstanding results.
The iron-killed camp is a battle, the flowing soldiers.
The new technical director took office, but I don’t know what will happen.

While Slotz was worried in the southern suburbs of Amsterdam, Yang Yang ended his morning basic training in Almere's skate park, sweating all over, as if he had been fished out of a bucket.
Since May, the weather has gradually become hotter.
The first goal after landing in the Netherlands gave Yang Yang a strong confidence, but it really stimulated him and made him train harder last night and today was the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium.
Even if he just thought about it, he felt extremely shocked, and at the same time he deeply felt the huge gap between himself and the young players of Ajax.
After returning to Almere last night, he watched the game live broadcast. Van der Mede's performance on the right made him feel ashamed, and Van der Fate's skills and talent made him want to worship him.
But these two players are not much older than him.
The gap is so big, and teammates have such a good training platform. If you don’t try to catch up, you will only be pulled further and further.
"Drink water."
The Dutch middle-aged man who often came to see Yang Yang's training came again. He still carried two bottles of water and was still sitting in that position, without saying a word. He only handed over a bottle of water after Yang Yang completed the special training program.
"Thank you." Yang Yang took the water and thanked him while wiping his sweat with a towel.
"I just played the whole game yesterday. This morning, not only did I double my training, but I also increased my intensity. Can you bear it?"
Feeling the little concern in his tone, Yang Yang smiled, "I understand my own body, it's okay."
His training volume was checked by Lao Bing from the super training ground. If he couldn't bear it, Lao Bing wouldn't allow him to do this.
"You have something to worry about." Dutch middle-aged man said with certainty.
Yang Yang was a little surprised, "How do you know?"
"It's written on your face." Dutch middle-aged man joked.
Although he knew that the other party was joking, Yang Yang couldn't help but reach out to touch his face. This action made the always serious Dutch middle-aged man laugh.
"I heard that you performed well yesterday, scored one goal twice, and had a high success rate of one-on-one breakthrough. It seems that you have gained a lot of special training in recent times and have made great progress in basic skills. What else do you have to worry about?"
Yang Yang was wary of this middle-aged man who was so strange that he didn't even know his name. However, after a long time and contacted him for too long, he found that the other party had no malice. Every time he just watched him train and chatted with him for a few words, he gradually let go of his guard. At this time, he hesitated for a moment and expressed his depression.
"This is normal. They have been receiving the most formal and professional football training since childhood. The basic training you are doing now is already very familiar with when you are eight or nine years old. It is natural for you to have a gap with them."
"I understand too." Yang Yang nodded, a hint of unwillingness flashed across his face, "but he just couldn't accept it."
"What do you want?"
Yang Yang pondered for a moment and asked carelessly: "Do you think I still have the possibility of catching up with them?"
"I still say the same thing, it's as hard as climbing to the sky, but since you can see the gap and still have this idea, you might as well give it a try."
"you mean……"
"You said when we first met, you have to try everything before you know it."
After hearing this, Yang Yang felt much more uncomfortable. He looked at the Dutch middle-aged man again, very curious.
"Where did you play in Ajax? Are you as good as Van der Fate, Van der Med, Sneider, or Litmanin? What was it like to play football at the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium?"
"When I played football, Ajax's home court was still at the Olympic Stadium. They moved to Amsterdam Athletic Stadium in 1996, so I don't know what it feels like to play football there, but..."
The bitterness in the eyes of the Dutch middle-aged man flashed, and he quickly continued to reply: "I have never played for Ajax's first team. As an opponent, I have been here, but I feel nothing different."
"So that's how it is." Yang Yang nodded, but soon a new question arose, "Why do I often meet you here?"
"Because I like to come here to watch your training." The Dutch middle-aged man was very frank.
"Why?"
"We made a bet with Truss, my girlfriend."
"What?"
"I bet you can't hold on for a month in this boring basic training, and she thinks you can."
"What?" Yang Yang felt funny. He actually became a bet for the old couple.
"We made an appointment. Whoever loses must agree to the other party to do something."
"Then you..."
"I hope you can do it." said the Dutch middle-aged man very sincerely.
His confession made Yang Yang speechless. Although he wanted to ask clearly what he wanted to do if he lost, he felt presumptuous. After all, this was a matter between the old couple.
"It's almost time. I've made an appointment to play golf. It's time to leave."
The Dutch middle-aged man stood up from the long chair and looked at Yang Yang beside him before he could move away.
"At your current pace of progress, at most one week, you should reduce the training of getting the ball and pay attention to maintaining the ball sense. Don't blindly get the ball to get the ball for the sake of getting the ball. You will only get the ball and play the game."
As soon as he took a step, he seemed to suddenly remember something and turned around, "Oh, by the way, and practice your left foot more."
