Chapter 1138: Come up with Ideas and Participate in Training
"cool~"
“it’s very cool~”
Unexpectedly, a staff member recorded Dong Fangzhuo's speech and put it on the Internet. The video also quickly attracted crazy attention.
Manchester United fans liked the video one after another.
"That's right,"
"This is the spirit of Manchester United."
"Dong Shen got the real pass from Manchester United."
“Hopefully this group of kids can pass this on too.”
"..."
It's not just Manchester United fans who are discussing it, but fans of other clubs too.
Many Liverpool fans are confused.
"So, what is the spirit of Liverpool?" they couldn't help but ask.
A Liverpool fan immediately replied:
"The spirit of Liverpool is you will never walk alone. The power of the team is strong. You will never walk alone! No matter where you go, the loyal kop will follow Liverpool. No matter whether the score is ahead or behind, we will all be emotional." Singing the Liverpool team anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone", just like the passionate interpretation of the magical night in Istanbul, fully expresses this spirit."
"Yeah, we have our own spirit too! It's not just Manchester United."
Perhaps in this regard, Liverpool is also proud enough.
Arsenal fans and Chelsea fans are depressed.
"It seems like we have nothing?"
"Ahhhhh!"
"Who says we have no spirit? There is a spirit called Chelsea. Hard work, persistence, and never giving up are his labels. I love blue, and I love the iron-blooded spirit of blue Chelsea even more. The Chelsea spirit is the most perfect way to reward those who work hard. Interpretation.”
"Arsenal also has it. The spirit of Arsenal is..."
"Are you fighting for the four crazy demons?"
"roll!"
“Fighting to keep warm?”
"roll,
Get out, get out! "
Arsenal fans are really discouraged. Thinking of the current situation of Wenger and Arsenal, they have no confidence. Does Arsenal still have spirit? Just like clocking in to work, there is never any hope.
Because of Dong Fangzhuo's speech, everyone has been discussing the team spirit this week. This is true in England and throughout Europe. Fans of the European giants have come forward to look for their spirit.
Real Madrid: Juanito spirit, we are real fighters!
Juventus: The team that never gives up and never gives up - Juventus! Every Juventus player who has worked for it has inherited Juventus’ unique DNA, and they have given everything they have for the fans and the club...! Our beliefs are stronger than anyone else’s!
Barcelona: Attack! attack! attack! Cruyff taught us that offense is in our blood.
Milan: Champion! champion! champion! Milan…
Spain's "World Sports News" lamented: Rich families need foundation. Not all teams have their own spirit.
German "Bild": If a club needs spirit, a national team needs it even more.
Just when Europe was buzzing about team spirit, Dong Fangzhuo signed up to participate in a coaching training event held in Manchester County through the arrangement of the club.
That's right.
He signed up for the Level 1 training class.
In the UK, you only need to pay 155 pounds and take 3 weekends (two weekends to study and one weekend to take the exam) to easily get the Level 1 certificate (equivalent to the domestic D-level coaching certificate).
European football coaches are divided into 5 levels. The lowest level is Level 1, then Level 2 (basically coaching teams below English League One, or club teams), and then UEFA B (amateur and professional A watershed moment in football, a must if you want to coach in a professional team.) The second is UEFA A, and the highest level is UEFA Pro. In theory, if you want to study the corresponding courses, you must have a previous level certificate, and the threshold will become higher and higher.
Level 1 courses are very basic and are mainly for cultivating interest. Taking England as an example, the registration conditions include: you must be over 16 years old; you must pass the English test; you must complete all training courses, 3 weekends, study in the first two weeks, and take the exam in the third week. The training will be arranged to be completed in a local sports center or school. The cost ranges from 155 to 170 pounds (charges vary by region). The exam passing rate is about 98%.
Each county (administrative unit) in the UK has its own FA, and Level 1 training courses are organized by the FAs in each region. Dong Fangzhuo was uniquely endowed and started working at Manchester United directly.
Level 1 is just a formality for him, and his goal is certainly not this.
As for level2, it is not difficult. Level 2 begins to focus on actual football skills and requires a 35-minute training session designed for a specific technique (long ball, short pass, catching, dribbling, shooting, etc.) or tactics (switching sides to attack, wing organization, etc.).
Except for Level 1, which is directly assessed to give a certificate, levels starting from Level 2 require you to have coaching experience in a certain team, and you also need to record your training arrangements during the certification period.
Compared with Level 1, Level 2's assessment standards are very high. It not only requires designing reasonable training arrangements, but also using appropriate methods to point out players' mistakes and correct them during the training process. Because the instructor will value your ability to observe technical or tactical errors that occur during player training.
No matter who you are or what your background is, you must have coaching experience in a PFA club starting from L2 level. You must have an L2 certificate before you can obtain the UEFA B certificate.
As for the two levels of coaching certificates, UEFA A and UEFA Pro, they must be very, very, very difficult to pass. You must know that the famous Zidane was also suspended for overstepping his level of coaching last year. On October 28, 2014, Zidane was suspended for three months by the Spanish Competition Committee due to insufficient coaching certificate level. At that time, Zidane had a UEFA A-level certificate, but at the time he needed a Pro-level certificate to coach Real Madrid's B team. …
Therefore, after Dong Fangzhuo goes to study level 1, his second step is to become a part of the Manchester United coaching bench.
However, he is only 30 years old. Is this too early? There are still at least four or five years left before retirement.
But under the influence of Solskjaer and Ryan Giggs, he also came up with the idea of becoming a coach. Especially when he was with young kids like Rashford in the training ground, he wanted to do something even more.
Maybe, return to China for youth training in the future?
Maybe, coaching in Europe?
he does not know.
At least he knows that he doesn't want to leave football...
He knocked on Ferguson's office door.
"Boss, I want to discuss something with you."
"Heh, I know why you're here."
"You know? I haven't said it yet."
"Do you think anyone's actions at Manchester United can escape my eyes and ears? I have already arranged it for you. You have a good idea. The door of the club is open to you at any time. Of course, your task at the moment is still to play football. Rather than thinking about being some kind of coach."
"I understand, but I don't just want to go through the motions, I really want to do well."
"Then try to think from the coach's perspective..."
