Blackburn Rovers were quite disappointed as a team, and it was difficult for them to accept the result of defeat.

Blackburn had a good run throughout the game, holding Millwall at bay for most of the game and failing to score a single goal.

Millwall, on the other hand, won with two 'dribbles' and beat Blackburn Rovers 78 away.

Blackburn Rovers were all disappointed after the game.

As the head coach, Mark Hughes was no exception, his gloomy face almost wrote 'bad mood', and when he arrived at the press conference, in front of many media reporters, he could only grit his teeth and admit, "The game highlighted the team's frontcourt efficiency problem, we couldn't score a goal." Fortunately, the winter transfer is just around the corner, and we will consider adding some personnel to strengthen the ability to score goals up front. ”

Mark Hughes is quite sincere.

Mark Hughes didn't think about whether to replenish personnel during the winter break before, but after the game, thinking back to the situation of 'thunder but not rain' in the front court, Mark Hughes has made up his mind - he must add a few front courts!

At present, there is no shortage of people in the front court, but it seems that it is difficult to improve the efficiency problem of whoever plays, and the introduction of a few frontcourt can supplement the lineup, and the second can also increase the competitive environment for frontcourt players.

Mark Hughes is also hoping to add to the quality of the striker, which he had in mind as early as a month ago, and has already made a move in Liverpool striker Pengolle.

Pengol is considered a talented striker, and he was hyped up last season, but the media hype is not necessarily a genius, Pengol has not been able to find a position in Liverpool, and he has not had the opportunity to play in a row, and he has to think about the future.

Pengolle's agent had already contacted Blackburn Rovers.

Mark Hughes has never responded positively, he doesn't know whether to bring in this 'pseudo-talented striker', but Pengolle's strength is still worthy of recognition, and it is difficult to say what can be played, and it should also be able to bring some help to Blackburn.

Now Mark Hughes has made his decision.

Mark Hughes was also not willing to put the blame for the loss on the 'inefficiency of the frontcourt', and after low-key admitting the team's problems, he also said, "But I think losing the game has a lot to do with luck." Millwall's luck was good, and ours was terrible! ”

If in the usual games, it would be tantamount to making excuses to attribute the loss to 'luck', Mark Hughes was ready to be questioned by reporters face to face, but what he didn't expect was that many reporters at the scene agreed with Mark Hughes's statement, and another reporter stood up and asked, "Mr. Hughes, do you also think that God helped Millwall?" ”

"God?"

Mark Hughes was stunned for a moment, completely unsure of how to answer.

It's weird!

Would a media reporter agree with the 'luck' statement and help him put the blame for the loss on God? Mark Hughes couldn't figure it out, said a few meaningless words, and coped with the topic.

Mark Hughes then left the press conference, and when he returned to the locker room, he knew why the reporters were asking questions like that.

Oh, God?

Maybe it really is!

In the first half of the game, the young Chinese coach posted a Weibo message saying, "God will favor the pious team." "Regardless of whether Millwall is a 'pious team' or not, the meaning on Weibo is naturally that God favors Millwall.

Blackburn played well throughout the game, but in the end there was no goal, while Millwall relied on two 'dribbles' to achieve the final victory.

Isn't that God helping?

It dawned on Mark Hughes that he regretted not following the reporter's words. It's rare that after a loss, you can put the blame on God, but it's a pity that he missed the opportunity.

Zhang Yang disagreed with the reporter's 'theology'.

Although the 'Theory of God' is excerpted from the Weibo message he posted, its content is just casually said, and he does not particularly care about it, such as the domestic Weibo news, there is no such thing as 'God'.

When it came to the press conference, Zhang Yang faced the reporter's question of 'deliberately guided', and bluntly retorted, "Blackburn performed better? Sorry, I don't agree, I think Millwall are the better and there is only one criterion for winning or losing a football game, and that is the goal. ”

'We scored more goals, so we won the game. It's true that we spend most of our time defending, but defending is part of the game of football. Just because Blackburn have more possession means they play better? According to you, is it true that England will not perform well when they meet Spanish teams? I'm sorry, but I don't want to be very direct, but a lot of Spanish teams are good at possession, I remember watching the match between Chelsea and Barcelona last season, Barcelona had more than 60 per cent possession and Chelsea won the eventual victory, doesn't that mean that Barcelona played better and Chelsea just won the game by luck? Mr. Mourinho certainly disagrees with this statement. ”

The flamboyant response left the reporter speechless.

The media reporters deliberately led the topic to the 'theory of God', which could increase the topicality of the competition, but they didn't expect that Zhang Yang, who was the party concerned, had a resolute objection, so they asked about Zhang Yang's Weibo instead.

Zhang Yang explained, "I just think we work harder and have more fighting spirit. 'God favors the pious team', it's just one way of saying it, it's the same thing as 'luck takes care of the hard-working team', so we win, it's that simple! ”

“……”

Many reporters almost vomited blood when they heard it, and they realized that it was explained like this.

Zhang Yang didn't care about the feelings of the reporters, and after attending the press conference, he immediately returned to the locker room and asked everyone to pack their bags and prepare to leave.

The result of beating Blackburn Rovers away with a 'third of the substitutes' was not bad, but the victory was also expected, and with the luck of 'big luck', it is really unacceptable to not be able to beat the same team.

Zhang Yang wasn't too excited.

The Christmas season has just begun, and this game is much more relaxed, and then it will get tense, and when he returns to the club, Zhang Yang will start to study the opponent for the next round - Everton.

Everton had an astonishing run last season, finishing fourth in the league and qualifying for the Champions League by the end of the season, which was a real shock.

However, in the summer, the media sang about Everton, with Liverpool, Tottenham and other teams improving, it is somewhat unrealistic for Everton to repeat last season's miracle, and few expect them to finish in the top four again.

This may also be because Everton has been up and down in recent years, and the fluctuating results are enough to make people wake up, but so far this season, Everton has 'declined' again, and the results in the first ten rounds are so bad that they only won one, and the results in the last five rounds are much better: four wins in five games, and finally found some face and form, so that fans do not need to worry about whether they can be relegated.

Such a team still has to deal with it carefully.

Millwall might have been able to win easily if Everton had continued to be in the early stages of the season, but Elton have come out of the confusion and have been in excellent form in the past few rounds, so Millwall will have to be vigilant.

David Moyes' team is not easy to beat!

Even top giants such as Manchester United and Chelsea have to cheer up when they encounter Everton.

Millwall is no exception.

Millwall then began to prepare for the clash with Everton.

At the same time, the British media also began to frequently report on transfer news, and winter transfers are not as hot as summer, but each transfer also represents a change in a team, which is still very attractive.

Many fans will want to support a team that can be strengthened, so the media will not be stingy to dig into the report.

There is no transfer news from Millwall.

The winter transfer window opened in early January, and it was still a little early, and the media news was all chasing after the wind, and there was more speculation about Millwall, who was 'completely unannounced'.

Various rumors also appeared.

Millwall have played quite an amazing record, and there are many eye-catching players in the team, such as Braniff, Josh Simpson, and Darren Bent, etc., and it is because of so many good players that Millwall can get good results.

But if Millwall want to maintain their results, they will have to bring in reinforcements to strengthen the depth of the bench.

Millwall's bench depth is an open issue, not just in the analysis of the media, but also in the club's coaching staff, staff, and the players in the squad.

"Millwall 'definitely' have a move in the winter!"

This is the opinion of most media outlets.

The media is still very optimistic about Millwall, financially speaking, the good result of half the game has attracted a lot of attention for Millwall, in such a good situation, the club's income will increase a lot, the board of directors will definitely consider increasing investment, and even banking institutions are optimistic about Millwall, easy to approve more loans.

Millwall are not short of money now, and even more 'generous' than in the summer, and it is not surprising that the club has put another £6 million into the transfer market.

In addition, Millwall has also become an attractive club.

Millwall, who were only promoted in the summer, have now become a half-way dark horse, winning 13 of the 15 rounds of the league to attract everyone's attention.

Many of the players who are going to change clubs have expressed some excitement for Millwall.

Of course, there may be reporters asking about the credit of deliberate guidance, such as the 'Blues' Chelsea defender Steve Watt, who was peacefully terminated, the young Watt is preparing to find a new club, in an interview, the reporter mentioned Millwall, Walter immediately said, "If Millwall contacted me, I would not hesitate to choose to sign, and I would be willing to reduce my salary." I want to stay in the Premier League and Millwall are a fantastic team and I simply can't turn down the opportunity to spend a magical season with them! ”

Sean Davies, who is leaving Tottenham Hotspur, said the same: "I have been invited by a couple of teams, including Portsmouth, Blackburn, Queens Park Rangers, and so on, including Premier League teams and Championship teams, but unfortunately there are no teams that I really want to join, such as Millwall, and I would love to join them and find out why they have done so well." If Millwall had offered an invitation, I would not have declined. ”

Under the deliberate guidance of media reporters, many players who are 'ready to transfer' and 'listed' have expressed their views on Millwall, and most of them want to join Millwall.

As a result, many names are associated with Millwall.

But in fact, Millwall has also discussed the issue of reinforcements internally, with Grigory offering to increase investment on behalf of the board of directors, and Ebenezer saying a possible figure of £3.5 million, "which could be used for winter transfers." ”

It's rare for the club to be generous.

In the summer transfer time, 3.5 million pounds is enough to bring in a good star, but compared to the winter recruitment, it is definitely a lot of money, no club will make major changes in the middle of the season, and the transfer market will not have a strong and outstanding star.

This money is enough to buy most of the stars who are listed.

"I'm not thinking about bringing in reinforcements for the time being." The flamboyant answer surprised many people.

Zhang Yang has no plans to replenish it.

Millwall's bench depth is a problem, but relative to the team's results, it is not something that a winter transfer can do, nor is it something that can be solved by a mere £3 million.

Just look at the team's main lineup.

Braniff and Darren Bent up front, Jody Morris, Smitchell and Elliott in midfield, Koncheski and Josh Simpson on the wings are also excellent, and players such as Darren Ward and Wes Morgan in the backfield are also excellent.

In the summer transfer time, most of these players are not worth three million pounds, and now it is different after half a season, even Darren Ward and Elliott are not just three million pounds to buy, because they have proven themselves in the Premier League schedule, and their continuous and stable performances have made their value rise several times.

Three million pounds is to buy a player who can barely have the main level, but even if the reinforcements are made and the strength of the team is slightly replenished, the integration of new players into the team is also a problem.

Millwall's tactics are very unusual, it took a long time for the players to become familiar with the tactics, a player at the level of three million pounds, after joining the team, can only start from the bench, at the beginning is not as good as other substitute players, and when the new players are familiar with the tactics and can play to a certain extent, the season is probably coming to an end?

What's the point of this player introduction?

Millwall needs to add the most is the midfield, and the new tactical midfield position is the most complex and difficult to adapt, if there are suitable players, such as the veteran Smitchell, strong, experienced, to the team can have a good performance, but you can also consider signing, does not meet the requirements of the introduction of meaning.

The team's most important job at the moment is to deal with the busy schedule for Christmas, and winter transfers are unlikely to help with this, so buying new players will not help, so naturally there is no need to waste energy on this.

What Zhang Yang needs to do is to mobilize the whole club to make efforts for each upcoming game, and at the same time arrange training more reasonably, pay attention to the physical condition of each player, keep the team in shape, reduce unexpected injuries as much as possible, and so on.

That's the most important thing right now.
