Today he is out of a job. How did it all go so wrong for Ronald Koeman? On December 3, 2001 he was appointed at Ajax after being lured away from a revitalised Vitesse. He inherited a team from Co Adriaanse that was a shambles. Adriaanse had attempted to build a team out of youngsters who, although absurdly talented, weren't ready for first-team football, combined with cheap obscure foreign players who had the assignment of holding things together until the homegrown players were ready. Needless to say it all went horribly wrong. 01年十二月科曼被AJAX从Vitesse拉来，继承了前教练Co Adriaanse的阵容， Adriaanse之前选择重用青年军，虽然这批人非常非常的有才华，但是却还不够成熟 ，Adriaanse另外签了一几个不是挺有名气的外籍球员，想借重这批外籍球员的经 验带领这批这批年轻人度过一段时间，结果可想而知，事情不如他所料。 Koeman soon turned things around and even managed to win the league that year with a refreshingly attacking team in the classical Ajax mould. 科曼接管後，马上扭转了该队的情势，不但赢了荷甲，也把该队塑造成一个 攻击型球队。 The next year was as exciting a season as Ajax have had since the Champions League glory of 1994-95, despite losing the league to PSV by one point in one of the closest seasons Holland has seen in years 隔年AJAX虽然以一分之差让PSV把荷甲冠军拿走，但是这季整体来说是自94-95年 那批欧冠得主之後，最让人兴奋的一季。 Young guns Rafael van der Vaart, Steven Pienaar, Cristian Chivu, Andy van der Meyde and Zlatan Ibrahimovic brought Ajax to the quarter-finals of the Champions League in which they lost agonisingly to AC Milan in injury-time of the second leg at the San Siro. 因为该队有van der Vaart, Pienaar, Chivu, van der Meyde, 与Ibrahimovic 让AJAX打进欧冠八强，直到在第二轮客场败给ACM。 The average age of the first team was just over 21 years old and Van der Vaart was named the best young player in Europe. Ajax were being praised for their fluid attacking, fighting spirit and talented youngsters. That winter Barcelona repeatedly offered Koeman their manager's position but he preferred to stay on at Ajax in the pursuit of a fifth European Cup for the club. 当时该队的平均年龄才不过21岁，而VDV被选为该季最佳荷兰年轻球员，该队也被媒 体称赞他们的流畅攻击与拼斗精神，当然还有这批才华洋溢的年轻球员们。巴萨 也数度邀请科曼执教，但是科曼选择继续待下去意图为AJAX谋得第五座欧冠奖盃。 The following summer Koeman allowed Chivu and Van der Meyde to go to Roma and Inter respectively, a decision that would haunt him for the rest of his time at the club. One-time Manchester United target Julien Escude was brought in to replace Chivu but has been unconvincing, while Van der Meyde was never properly replaced as the scarcity for traditional right-wingers within Ajax's budget played up once again. 隔年夏天，科曼让Chivu与Van der Meyde分别去了罗马与国米，这决定让科曼此後 一直困扰着。科曼随然从把曼联相中的法国後卫Escude买进以弥补Chive离去的空缺 ，但是法国人表现一直不是让人信服，而VDM去国米後的右翼空缺，也因为科曼 的转会预算不够一直找不到合格的替补。 The cracks began to show as Koeman fell out with one of his star players for the first time in what would be a long succession of similar situations. Egyptian wunderkind Mido refused to show up to training on time or to conform to Koeman's vision of discipline and was sold off to Marseille after being loaned to Celta Vigo for the second half of the 2002-2003 season. 科曼与他队伍的间隙首次出现是因为Mido拒绝准时出现练球，这埃及人也不服科曼的 纪律化管理的理念，科曼遂将02-03他下半季外借Celta，格年迈到马赛去。 The 2003-2004 season was Koeman's best. Ajax won the league on pure talent, easily keeping PSV and Feyenoord behind them throughout the year. Despite the apparent ease of this victory though, Koeman did have troubles with several of his players. Eccentric striker Ibrahimovic was craving the spot-light and "respect", right-back Hatem Trabelsi went on strike to force a new contract, new Dutch international Wesley Sneijder demanded a starting spot - verbally assaulting his manager in the process - and captain Van der Vaart refused to play out of position any longer. 03-04年是科曼执教表现最好的一年，AJAX拿下荷甲，并让PSV与菲诺得遥遥在後， 虽然联赛冠军赢的轻松，科曼却面对几个内部问题，一是因为好镁光灯注意的Zlatan ，要求教练要"尊重"他，二是Trabelsi因为合约问题罢工的事，三则是Sneijder 要求要先发位置，甚至口头攻击科曼，四是VDV拒绝打他不擅长的位置。 On top of that Pienaar couldn't stay fit for more than three matches at a time and youngsters Nigel de Jong and Johnny Heitinga, though both Dutch internationals, couldn't find a place in the Ajax starting line-up, resulting in heavy criticism in the press. 另外还有Pienaar状态一直不好，而其他两个年轻球员de Jong与Heitinga虽然已是 国脚，在AJAX却年先发都排不上，这些招来媒体的严厉批评。 This season it all finally came to a head. After refusing to adjust the season's expectations upon Koeman's request, football director Louis van Gaal resigned. Ibrahimovic was finally granted his transfer to mighty Juventus but wasn't replaced by Angelos Charisteas until the Christmas transfer window. Homegrown starlets Van der Vaart, Sneijder and De Jong even stated publicly that they didn't feel they got any better under Koeman. 这季所有的不幸一次降临在科曼身上，首先是该俱乐部的football director范盖尔 辞职，因为科曼希望这季俱乐部的期望能调整。Zlatan终於如愿去了组文，但是他的 空缺直到冬季转会才由Angelos Charisteas(这是不是那个希腊九号前锋？) 青训出来的球员VDV，Sniejder与de Jong也落井下石的说在科曼底下他们没什麽 进步。 On top of all that, Ajax are eight points behind PSV and even four points behind traditionally inferior AZ - coached by one Co Adriaanse. Champions League and subsequent Uefa Cup elimination to Auxerre were the final straw for Koeman, who cleared out his office last Friday. 除了这些内部问题之外，在联赛AJAX已落後PSV八分，甚至落後黑马AZ四分，之前欧冠 出局与现在UEFA CUP出局上科曼清出了他在AJAX的办公室。 The former free-kick virtuoso has since been linked to the Valencia job and will no doubt soon have a new toy to keep him busy. But it is doubtful he will ever find a situation as promising as the one he had at Ajax again. 这个昔日的FK大炮近来被臆测为瓦伦的接班人之一，不过，他的未来也不一定会比 在AJAX日子好。 **************** Koeman's interim successors Tonny Bruins Slot and Ruud Krol managed to win 2-1 at Vitesse this weekend, keeping hopes of a Champions League berth live. Elsewhere fourth-placed Feyenoord convincingly beat RBC 3-0 as league top-scorer Dirk Kuijt banged in his 21st of the season. AZ continued their impressive season by beating Willem II 3-1 inspired by old playmaker Barry Van Galen and PSV beat Heerenveen 3-0 -two goals by Jefferson Farfan - to remain four points clear at the top. --
