League Insider- Frans Hoek [Interview]
The Final Third has just interviewed the man who is perfectly
placed between Champions League Finalist coaches, Jose Mourinho and

Ajax, and then Barcelona. While at Barcelona, Jose Mourinho was also an
assistant to Van Gaal, and this is where ‘The Special One’ learnt to
coach. Who is better placed to talk about the differences and
similarities in coaching than the man who was there and witnessed it
all? Nobody but Frans Hoek…. enjoy!

If you can't get the ball out of your own half, the quickest, easiest
taught solution is not to coach the kids to knock it about like
Barcelona and bamboozle the opposition - because that would take years
and a far superior pool of talent than is going to be available to a
typical under 11 coach - it is to get your two biggest kids, stick them
at the back and tell them to lump it forward.
This is how we
have produced generation after generation of clumsy defenders, the type
our opponents want to have the ball because they know possession will
soon be conceded.

Conventional wisdom in soccer—as in other sports—holds that it takes
time to build success. It's the whole reason why new coaches are given
"grace periods" during which they instill their philosophies, find their
feet and implement the changes they were brought in to make.

“The great fallacy is that the game is
first and foremost about winning. It’s nothing of the kind. The game is
about glory. It’s about doing things in style, with a flourish, about
going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of
boredom”

China to send 500 teenagers to Europe for training over 5 years |

By Liu Zhen and Nick Mulvenney
BEIJING, April 21 (Reuters) - China will send up to 500 teenagers to train at top European clubs over the next five years, according to the Chinese Football Association (CFA).
The plan by China’s new football chief Wei Di is aimed at developing the country’s most talented players between the ages of 15 and 17, who are expected to spend two or three years at various European clubs in small groups of five or six.
“We are working on the details of the project. There will be 80-100 players dispatched to Europe each and every year from this year on,” CFA spokesman Dong Hua told Reuters by telephone.
Chinese media said Spain ’s La Liga would be the major destination as Wei believes there is a similarity in body size and strength between Chinese and Spanish footballers.
“We have been in good cooperation with many European FAs and clubs,” said Dong. “We want our young players with the best potential to train in the Spanish, English, German, Italian and Dutch leagues, which have the highest standards of youth development.”
This will be the latest attempt by China to produce elite footballers through training overseas, following the first squad sent to Hungary in the 1950s and more recent groups who spent long periods in Brazil and Germany .
