Wilkinson looks a little sad, but it's not annoying, he always has a smiling face, and it's easy to feel comfortable.

In addition, walking with Wilkinson always gives me more confidence in my appearance.

Ahem......

The latter one, Zhang Yang will definitely not admit it.

But in any case, Zhang Yang didn't hate Wilkinson before, but felt that it was not bad to have such a manager.

Now he's a little awkward.

Zhang Yang found that Wilkinson did things with a very strong purpose, for example, he treated Ebenezer with a completely different attitude, he treated himself enthusiastically, but only because there was no conflict between the two parties, and now the other party found him, but also to let himself 'support' him, so as to make the management transition smoother.

All right.

Anyway, that's how Zhang Yang understands it.

Zhang Yang can also understand Wilkinson's approach, to become the new vice president of a club, and will also be the direct manager of the club in the future, he must hope to be accepted quickly.

Wilkinson was definitely the kind of guy who wanted to be recognized, so he found himself and hoped to help him.

Zhang Yang thought about it, but still agreed, "If you need anything, you can tell me." For the sake of indifferent things, there is no need to have a conflict with the future vice chairman, and Wilkinson's attitude is not bad, so he agreed.

After all, it's just a gesture of support!

When the league is about to reach the thirtieth round, it has really entered the late stage, and the teams competing for the ranking will start to sprint, and the relegation teams will need to fight for more points.

Millwall are title contenders.

The ranking of the first place in the Premier League has also made all fans who follow the Premier League pay attention to Millwall, and even their schedules have been thoroughly analyzed by various football commentators.

Millwall's next opponent in the round is Wigan Athletic.

The game was considered 'no suspense' and the last time the two teams met, Millwall comfortably won the game, when Millwall had not fielded their full squad and only came on as a semi-substitute line-up, while Wigan Athletic seemed to have given up on the game and sent a semi-substitute line-up.

"That's Jewell's strategy!"

Some media have analyzed the reasons for Wigan Athletic's good results, one of which is that Wigan Athletic coach Jewell will take the initiative to give up those 'basically impossible to win' games, and try to seize the games that may get points.

Wigan Athletic are now ranked ninth, and with a 'first' promotion horse in history, this kind of result is absolutely quite remarkable.

Although many people still believe that Wigan Athletic has achieved good results, it is only because most Premier League teams do not know Wigan Athletic that they will suddenly get good results, and in the second half of the schedule, Wigan Athletic has become a decline is proof, when most opponents are familiar with Wigan Athletic, it will be difficult for them to continue their good results.

However, the ability of the head coach is still very important, and the professional football world still attaches great importance to the role of the head coach, and Wigan Athletic coach Jevier is also known by many people.

Jewell has become famous, and his future coaching journey will definitely become smoother.

Of course, Jewell's 'fame' also needs to be compared, and if compared with flamboyant fame, his achievements are nothing.

Millwall and Wigan Athletic are really the 'difficult brothers' of history.

Neither team has Premier League experience.

Wigan Athletic ranked ninth in the league, Millwall ranked first in the league, exceptionally good results, so that many people in the world know the name of "Millwall", but also know their young Chinese coach, "Zhang Yang's name has been repeatedly mentioned by the world sports media, and some people define Zhang Yang's success as, "He is a sign, the future football coach will develop towards a younger generation, and the 'academy' will also emerge more outstanding coaches." ”

According to this statement, Zhang Yang has become a representative of 'football coaching'.

But no matter which way you say it, there is basically only praise for Zhang Yang, and when you compare Jewell and Zhang Yang, the difference is a little big.

When Wigan Athletic met Millwall, Jewell decisively chose to give up, of course, in front of the media, he did not say so, "We will try to win!" ”

'Late in the season, every point counts and Millwall are difficult to play against, but Wigan Athletic are not easy to beat!'

Here are Jewell's words.

The media in Wigan Town, Manchester Region, believes that Jevier is expressing that Wigan Athletic will do their best to win, and it is also an attitude that the whole team attaches importance to the game.

But when it came to the game, everyone found that this was not the case, and half of Wigan Athletic's starting lineup was made up of substitutes.

"What about doing your best?"

Journalists who wanted to see Wigan Athletic stop Millwall only to find out that the world was more complicated than they thought, and that Wigan Athletic did not give it their all at all, clearly not wanting to make unnecessary resistance.

"Probably they don't think it's possible to win against Millwall!"

Some football professionals analyzed.

This statement also makes many people understand how much of Millwall's deterrence and influence have increased today.

In the process of the Premier League, some teams will choose to give up some games appropriately, which is a very normal situation, especially when small clubs play against giants, it is often difficult to get points with all their efforts, so they simply send a semi-substitute lineup to let the players who need to rest for a round and strive to play better in the next round.

The ones that can deter opponents from giving up are often only a few giants.

Among the 20 teams in the Premier League, that is, Manchester United and Chelsea, there is this level of deterrence, even Liverpool and Arsenal are much worse, and few teams will give up the game with Liverpool and Arsenal.

Millwall?

Before the game, the media, who felt that Wigan Athletic had little chance, would not have thought that Jewell would save his strength.

But that's where the game really happened.

What's the suspense here?

There may be suspense in the game, no team in the Premier League can definitely win, even if Wigan Athletic's semi-substitute lineup, it is not surprising to beat Millwall's main lineup, after all, the game requires players to perform on the spot.

But Millwall's whole team played well, Wigan Athletic's semi-substitute lineup had no chance, and the final score was 1-3, Millwall defeated the home team Wigan Athletic away with two goal difference.

Jewell was in the spotlight after the game.

But no manager would admit that 'the team gave up the game rationally', and Jeville did the same, explaining that several of the main players did not play, saying, "They are not in good physical condition, they have a round of rest, and I have to take responsibility for the health of the players!" ”

This explanation simply cannot be refuted!

Jewell then spoke about the situation facing Wigan Athletic, saying, "The team will try to get more points in the next games to fight for the opportunity to play in Europe next year!" ”

For this game, Jevier has only one thing to say, "Millwall are strong, after the game, we know why they are at the top of the league!" They don't feel like a small club at all, but like a big club......"

Jewell's next words made Zhang Yang blush a little when he heard it.

Giants?

If Millwall had the strength of a giant, he wouldn't have to work so hard.

Compared to the giants...... No, compared with the average Premier League club, Millwall is a gap, the gap is mainly reflected in the average ability of the players, although Branifer, Josh Simpson and Livermore and others, have grown a lot, but a few players can not cover the entire team, not to mention the depth of the bench, the strength of the team's main lineup, but also some worse than other teams, can have an excellent performance, but also the effect of 'new tactics', good results and the use of supernatural abilities, there is a direct connection.

Of course, Zhang Yang will not explain.

But Zhang Yang also has a certain concern, which is the consideration of next season.

Some media commented on Wigan Athletic, believing that their results were good because their opponents did not know Wigan Athletic.

How could Millwall not be like that?

The opponent doesn't know Millwall either, and is completely at a loss about Millwall's new tactics, but next season, the situation will definitely be different, after Millwall gets good results, the tactical system will be analyzed by people from all walks of life, just like Manchester United, Barcelona and other teams, the tactical style of play used, even ordinary fans can say a thing or two, Millwall will definitely be analyzed thoroughly.

What advantages will there be then?

If you continue to play this season, if you want to achieve good results next season, the strength of the squad must be greatly strengthened, otherwise it will be almost impossible.

This is the question to be faced in the future.

Millwall also have a problem to face at the moment, and that is the next round of games against Manchester United.

Manchester United!

The last time Millwall played Manchester United, the result was 2-1, and the home advantage, combined with Darren Bent's excellent performance, gave the team a head-on win over Manchester United.

This time, the venue of the match was changed to Old Trafford.

Manchester United also has a deeper understanding of Millwall, and it is not easy to beat Manchester United, there is a big gap between the three lineups of the two sides, when Manchester United gets serious, maybe a C-Ronaldo is not the Millwall backline, can deal with it calmly.

What to do?

Zhang Yang had thought about this problem before, and what he thought of was 'giving up the game appropriately', otherwise there would be a big battle with Manchester United, regardless of whether he won or lost for the time being, and the state of the main players would definitely be affected, and that would also affect the subsequent games.

For example, during Christmas, the team lost to Newcastle United.

That's not an accident, but a matter of course, the continuous exhaustion of the battle, so that the entire main lineup, has become loose, after a difficult game, it means that the state of the main players will be affected.

Zhang Yang is most worried about this.

In addition, it is not easy to achieve results against Manchester United, and it is enough to accept it if you try your best to get a point.

So to give up the game?

Zhang Yang didn't decide, after all, giving up the game means losing three points, the team is only four points more than Chelsea, and suddenly giving up the advantage of three points, the difference will be only one point.

That is certainly unacceptable.

At this time, a piece of news made Zhang Yang make a decision: Chelsea lost!

In the thirtieth round of the Premier League, the highlight of the battle is Chelsea's game, as their opponents are historical rivals Fulham.

Fulham are Chelsea's sworn enemies, but Fulham and Chelsea have had a much worse record, having not beaten Chelsea for 26 consecutive years.

The outside world was also not optimistic about Fulham, but in the end Chelsea lost to Fulham.

It was the first time in 26 years that Chelsea had lost to this opponent.

Ahead of the game, there were rumours in the British media that Jose Mourinho would leave Stamford Bridge in favour of Serie A giants Inter Milan, and Mourinho's name was constantly linked with Inter Milan.

This is not for nothing, and Moratti admires Mourinho for all his attention.

Jose Mourinho was not considering leaving Chelsea, intending to shatter rumours of a departure from Stamford Bridge with a victory, only to find his fourth defeat in the Premier League this season.

At the end of the game, Mourinho felt that the game was divided into two phases, the watershed was the substitution in the 25th minute, "Although the final score was 0-1, there was a difference in the performance after 30 minutes, according to the performance in the first 30 minutes, we should have lost, but after 30 minutes, we should have won. ”

The game was as follows: Chelsea had the advantage but didn't score, as the saying goes, 'thunder doesn't rain', which led to the defeat to Fulham.

Former Liverpool star McManaman, a guest commentator at ESPN, said: "Chelsea's problem is the 'last pass' and they struggle to get the ball into the box effectively, which affects the quality of the attack. McManaman's words point to Chelsea's exposed problems, with little effective possession in midfield and low pass completion rate, which has been Chelsea's deadliest problem for a long time.

Chelsea have always 'liked' to target Drogba's spot and play long balls away, which is one of the ways they can score goals effectively, but it is also a helpless move that they can't penetrate into the dangerous area, so they have to do it.

That's why Chelsea are keen to buy top technical midfielders, such as Ronaldinho and Kaka, who can improve their overall technical quality and make their midfield efficient and flexible.

But either way, Chelsea lost.

Millwall's points advantage jumped to seven points, directly opening up the gap of three games, considering that there are still eight rounds left in the league, some media have also begun to say that "Millwall will become the Premier League champion".

This also made Zhang Yang make a decision.

In any case, the league competition is all about getting more points, and as long as it is for this purpose, everything is done right.

Zhang Yang did not reveal his thoughts to others, just let the team train normally, but did not prepare for the Manchester United game, just asked the team to do a good job of defensive training.

When the time was close to the game against Manchester United, Wise, Aldous and others had doubts, and Wise couldn't help but ask, "Zhang, why have we spent most of our time doing defensive training in the past few days?" ”

Zhang Yang explained, "This will be used in the game against Manchester United. ”

"But we're not ...... like last time"

Zhang Yang knew what Wise was talking about, before the last game against Manchester United, the team had made a lot of preparations, and there was more offensive training than defensive training, in order to break down Manchester United's goal.

In the last few days, there has been almost no offensive-related training, and Wise and the others will naturally have doubts.

Zhang Yang said, "This is my strategy. We have to focus on defense, and as for offense, leave it to the frontcourt players! ”

"We're not going to give up, but try to play an easy game!"
