Chapter 55: The Power of the Head Coach

As a team leader, or the head coach of the team, when making an adjustment in the game, it is necessary to explain to the players, who proposed the adjustment?

The answer is no.

Any well-known manager has a team to support him.

For example, Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, who has recently become famous, see their coaching results, but they are not working alone, but are supported by the 'coaching staff'.

The outside world knows Ferguson and Mourinho, but who knows who is in the Manchester United coaching staff and Chelsea coaching team?

When Wise came back, he regretted it a little, he found that since Zhang Yang was the 'game instructor', he regretted it many times, and when Frederick was the 'first assistant coach', he hardly gave any opinions, and he was completely indecisive in analyzing the game.

This may be one of the reasons why Wise does not resist Zhang Yang as a 'game instructor'.

Frederick was completely useless.

However, this young Chinese is too useful, and it is also troublesome to always hear opinions.

Soon Wise didn't think about it that much.

On the pitch, the Brighton player sent a foot ball that landed at the back post, and the wing-back on the left stepped forward to flank it, and if it wasn't for Jody Morris's timely reaction, he might have been kicked by him.

Wise let out a long breath.

The rest of Millwall's players didn't feel it, but Jody Morris felt it did.

If there was no reminder from Wise just now, pay attention to the players who outflanked the opponent at the back point, maybe the opponent would have scored?

That location is too dangerous!

Jody Morris suddenly thought of Wise's last sentence, "That's a flamboyant opinion", that 'competition instructor' is really a bit of a level!

————

Few people knew how dangerous Millwall was in the football just now, they just saw Jody Morris successfully clear the ball and didn't take it seriously, only Wise, Zhang Yang and Jody Morris felt it, and their tension seemed to have just begun.

Brighton then went on the attack, playing a rather subtle combination that left Millwall's defence full of errors.

With the exception of one Neal Harris, Millwall's other players all retreated to the backfield to participate in the defense.

Wise watched the game nervously, fearing that the opponent could break through at any moment.

Zhang Yang was a little silent.

But ten minutes later, Zhang Yang sat down next to Wise and suggested again, "Dennis, we should make a change!" Kevin Muscat can't even run. ”

Wise nodded.

Muscat really can't run, the former Australia international, who is 33 years old this year and is about to retire, can run on the pitch for 70 minutes, which is quite remarkable.

Since just now, Wise has been struggling with whether to change people.

Since Zhang Yang proposed to replace people, let's replace them immediately!

Millwall soon raised their substitutions, with No. 35 youngster Tony Clegg replacing No. 17 veteran Kevin Muscat.

When Tony Clegg was substituted, Dennis Wise couldn't sit still.

Twenty years of career, so that he has the habit of playing on his own to solve problems, until now he has not integrated into the role of pure team leader, seeing the team's frequent crises at the back, he can't help but want to play on his own to help the team stabilize the defense.

Wise glanced at Zhang Yang.

"Maybe it's a good appearance, at least I don't have to worry about whether to listen to opinions."

Supported by this idea, Wise immediately informed the fourth official that Millwall was going to make a substitution, and he himself ran to the side to warm up.

Zhang Yang was a little stunned.

What's wrong?

This is going to make its own appearance?

Millwall still needs a ball advantage, shouldn't a team leader stay in the dugout?

Zhang Yang was a little incomprehensible.

Wise couldn't wait to warm up, and just a minute later, he was back on the court.

Zhang Yang suddenly figured it out!

Why has Wise played so many times in past games? He doesn't see himself as a leader at all, he's a 'first bench' player and he can't help but want to play when the team is in a bit of a crisis.

It's no wonder that Millwall is doing badly!

Regardless of the team, the manager is very important, and after Wise came out in the past, there was only one Fredrick who was not assertive and self-righteous, which means that Millwall was without a manager for a lot of time.

"Fortunately, I have myself now!"

Next, Zhang Yang began to think deeply, whether Millwall was lucky to have himself, so that it was possible to change the original fate, or whether he was lucky to come to Millwall, and always easily got the opportunity to command the game.

This kind of opportunity is not easy, there are many so-called 'first assistant coaches', and it is difficult to get a chance to command a game once a season.

Wise proved to be a great professional.

When Wise came on the court, he not only helped Millwall stabilize his defense with his individual ability, but also made Millwall feel like he had found the core, and the entire lineup was much more stable.

Brighton continued to press on and they had to fight for it to have a chance of levelling, but with Millwall's solid defence, their attack was a little weaker.

At this time, Zhang Yang felt that it was too easy to lead the team to play.

When Wise came on, the team's defence was much more solid, and in the 'foresight' picture, Millwall's goal was not dangerous.

He didn't seem to have to do anything, just sit back and wait for the time to pass by.

Millwall's performance is also a sign of success in his interim command, and it feels like sleeping at home waiting for success.

The work is so smooth!

But people always have to look forward, always strive for progress, when the game reached the 85th minute, Zhang Yang finally moved his butt to a position, he walked to the sidelines, called Braniff, who had been idle, and admonished, "You stand more to the left, maybe there are more opportunities." ”

Braniff nodded.

But he didn't care too much, because Zhang Yang is not the head coach, even if he is the head coach, he will not dictate his position in the front court, he just copes with it on face.

When Zhang Yang returned to the coach's seat, he found that Braniff didn't listen to him at all, as if he hadn't said what he had just said.

Suddenly Zhang Yang was a little angry.

If Wise was still sitting in the coach's box, he wouldn't be angry at all, because directing the game is Wise's business, but when Wise is out of the game, he is the temporary team leader, and he has the power to direct the game!

Does this guy treat the temporary leader as a team leader?

Zhang Yang looked left and right, and his eyes were locked on a young general.

It was Curtis Weston, an eighteen-year-old striker who played as a centre-forward in the youth team, with the only advantage being his speed, but after entering the first team, he only made two substitute appearances for the team, and his performances were very average.

Zhang Yang looked at Curtis Weston and asked, "Want to play, Curtis?" ”

Weston was stunned when he heard this, he rubbed his hands a little overwhelmed, but his face was full of joy, "Of course, Zhang Yang, can I play?" ”

"Yes, but you'll have to listen to me."

"You say."

Zhang Yang whispered to Weston, and then exercised the power of the team leader and notified the fourth official to be replaced.

In the 87th minute, Millwall used up a third substitution, with 18-year-old Curtis Weston coming on in place of striker Branifer.

Seeing this substitution, Wise was a little angry again.

Braniff wasn't an absolute mainstay, but he was quite good in the game, scoring a goal in the first half, so why did he replace him at the end?

Curtis Weston?

How can an 18-year-old help!

Even more angry was Braniff, who knew better than anyone why he was being substituted, so when he came off the pitch, he didn't even have a symbolic greeting and sat back on the bench with a straight face.

Zhang Yang ignored him at all.

Lao Tzu is the temporary team leader, you don't listen to the command and still want to stay on the court?

Don't even think about it!

If you make Lao Tzu feel bad, as long as Lao Tzu is the team leader, you don't even want to play!
