Recently, I watched Bose's interview with The Athletic, and I was deeply moved. He talked a lot, from learning tactics at Arsenal to coaching Kai Havertz at Bayer Leverkusen, and every paragraph gave me a deeper understanding of football.
Speaking about Arsenal, Boss said they did a good job of defending and converting in attack. It reminds me that football is not just about being good-looking, it's just as important as the tactical set-up and the execution of the players. "We only have 6 or 7 players and it's further away".This is not only a reflection on the formation type, but also a consideration of the player's movement and awareness.
Let's talk about Bosch's thoughts on Dutch football. He mentioned that it is difficult to build a consistent team in the Netherlands because good players are always poached by big clubs. This is the frustration of small clubs, but also the reality of the football world. "There may only be one in the world.
Seven or eight clubs will say, 'No, we'll keep them'. ”This quote is a profound reflection of the commercialization and power imbalance of modern football.
On Ten Hag's pressure at Manchester United, Bosch is realistic. As a coach, you may have talent in your team, but if the players don't perform at their best, it's all talk. "Just think about the players, can they compete for the title?I don't think so. ”These words, while direct, also reveal the cruelty of the football world.
Bosch spoke about coaching Havertz at Bayer Leverkusen and was impressed with his positioning and use of Havertz. He's not just using Kai Havertz as a player, he's tapping into his potential. "Kai plays the piano like a **. ”This sentence is not only a compliment to Havertz's football skills, but also an appreciation for his versatility.
Finally, Bose mentioned the gifts Havertz gave to each of his team-mates and staff when he left, which made me feel the warmth off the pitch. Football is not only about competition, but also about humanity and team spirit.
Through Bosch's eyes, we can see a different side of the world of football. Every coach, every player, has their own story, and these stories make up the wonderful world of football. In this world, there is the cruelty of competition, the wisdom of tactics, and the warmth between people. That's why I love football.
