Chapter 137 Youth Academy Echelon
After the most important meeting of the three giants before the season ended, everyone began to perform their duties.
Soriano continues his work, and at the same time he needs to contact warm-up opponents for the team; Loew puts all his energy on the training of the first team. The goal of this season is not easy to achieve, even The things that should be done personally to collect information on important opponents are completely left to the assistants.
As for David, well, continue to do nothing.
Of course, the so-called not doing business properly is only from the perspective of Soriano and Loew. David, the chairman of the club, should focus on the management of the club instead of squatting in the youth training camp with a group of brats every day. That is the future of Notts County, but not the present.
That's right, recently, David has completely transformed into a nanny in the Notts County youth training camp. Every day, he revolves around these little kids in the eyes of others, but in his heart, this It is the job that makes him the happiest from the bottom of his heart, because he just likes watching little kids with snot noses and even wearing crotch pants gradually grow into big stars. This pride is unparalleled.
Look, this is the superstar we have cultivated!
Unlike many low-level clubs that do not pay attention to youth training, David completely puts the youth training camp on the same level as the first team. This is something that many giants cannot do.
David and Notts County's newly appointed director of youth training, Rick Linke, often had red-faced quarrels about the planning and construction of the youth training camp. Although he is far less professional than the other party in this regard, he has superhuman skills after all. Sunlight.
After repeated research and reference to other clubs' mature youth training systems, Notts County's youth training camp has set up 8 echelons, and each echelon is roughly configured with 25-30 small players.
The U23 youth team is actually the reserve team in the usual sense.
If a player is still unable to find a place in the first team at the age of 23, then this player does not have much future in the club. The best way is to find opportunities in other clubs or even lower leagues.
Originally, David did not plan to set up a reserve team, but this was the regulation and requirement of the FA, so David also had to keep the reserve team. Of course, this must be the most neglected group of players in Notts County For example, if some of the main players of the team before last season did not find a suitable next home, they can only play in the reserve team in the reserve league now.
At the same time, the reserve team will also be a transitional place for players who have been baptized by injuries before returning to the first team, and it is not useless.
Next is the U19 youth team, which is the most important stage before entering the adult team.
However, although Notts County has the configuration of the youth team at this stage, it does not have a player of the right age.
If you turn your attention to the first team, many people will find that there are many players of this age in the Notts County first team.
Sneijder, Mascherano, Mertesacker, Franck Ribery, Iniesta, Westerman, Sagna, Baines... can almost occupy half of the country.
U17 youth team, this age group can be said to have the fewest future stars, because in the entire team, only five players, Gary Cahill, Ramos, Babel, Suarez, and Joe Hart, were hand-picked by David , the other players are all ordinary players left after the public trial training of the youth training camp. Maybe there is a high chance of entering the sequence of professional players in the future, but at present, it seems that there is no one who is really likely to stay in Notts County. .
The U16 youth team, although there are still not many players handpicked by David, the quality is quite high.
Messi, Ozil, Mata, Xavi Martinez, Lewandowski, Hamsik, Lallana, almost every one of them may become a top superstar.
In the future, when this group of players is mature enough to enter the first team, I am afraid that there will be a youth storm in Notts County that is not inferior to the current one.
The U15 youth team was originally an echelon that Rick Link didn't think was necessary to set up, but with David's insistence, it was established.
Although the Notts County youth training camp has the best hardware conditions, compared with the maturity of many famous youth training camps, there is still a certain gap in operation, but the Notts County youth training camp will not stop, so David Everything is operated according to the most mature experience.
In the U15 youth team, there are also many future top stars, such as Sturridge, Walcott, Bale, Smalling, Royce, Azpilicueta, Alba, Gibbs, Carroll, Maybe there are no top superstars, but they are definitely the mainstay players.
In the U13 youth team, in addition to Ramsey, Welbeck, Henderson, De Gea and Griezmann, five young players personally brought by David, during the trial training process, they actually attracted two future players. Players whose names David had heard - Kyle Walker and Danny Rosk.
In fact, U13 players will not have full-time professional training. They need to go to school to learn cultural knowledge, and football training will take up almost all the time outside of study.
David is already considering this issue, building a school next to the Notts County youth training camp, combining the primary school and the middle school, so that the young players in Notts County can go to school nearby.
He doesn't want others to say that the players who come out of the Notts County youth academy are simple-minded guys with well-developed limbs.
Next is the U11 youth team, er, maybe it’s more appropriate to call it the children’s team, because it’s full of real kids.
De Bruyne, Hazard, Wilshere, Phil Jones, Lingard, Sherwigotze, Morata, Isco, Alaba, Pogba, Verratti, Chamberlain, Ross Barkley .
Regardless of the quantity and quality of this group of players, it can be called the best in Notts County's youth training camp. When this group of players matures in the future, it may be easy to rule the world of football.
Of course, there are also lower-level youth teams. At present, Notts County only has U9.
Among them are Martial, Sterling, Stones, Luke Shaw, Chambers, Ali and several players brought back by David. Only they are equivalent to officially entering the echelon. Other small players are more of a joke. It is only for training. At this stage, it is really difficult for a child who has just entered elementary school to play football wholeheartedly.
David swears that he will not use his future vision to poach people from other places to the youth training camp in Notts County in the future, because his previous handwriting is enough to make the whole world of football pay homage to him in the future.
The development of the Notts County Youth Academy cannot rely solely on his vision. With the future buffer of these players, I believe that the Notts County Youth Academy has enough experience at that time to make a player a first-class star.
