Chapter 577: A Flaunting Little Abacus

Zhang Yang remembered Chelsea over the past two seasons.

In a way, without Millwall's involvement, Mourinho's Chelsea team has been very successful, they will win more titles, and the overall results are much better than Benitez's Liverpool.

But one thing is recognized: Jose Mourinho's Chelsea will have a difficult time playing Liverpool.

The same is true for the head-to-head record between the two teams.

Liverpool can't say that they beat Chelsea, at least they did "not suffer", especially the victory in the Champions League, which eliminated Chelsea directly.

Benitez's Liverpool is just inconsistent in league results.

Why?

Now seeing Liverpool at home stadium, with such a dense defense, it is almost understandable.

Anyone has to admit that Liverpool are the top clubs, even if they have a poor record, they have always been in the first group of the Premier League, and there are almost no times when they are left behind.

A top club, with such a conservative tactical play, can discharge dense defense at home, completely disregard the face of the counterattack, and let the opponent play? The game between the two teams does not seem to be about tactics, strength and performance, but about the patience of the players of both teams.

Liverpool have more patience and maybe they will be able to score a goal.

If Liverpool's opponent is not in a hurry, it is not too difficult to end up in a draw, but as long as the team with better results than Liverpool will definitely not be willing to draw, hoping to win will eventually fail.

"It's probably no show."

Zhang Yang felt a little regretful, in the past four games of the league, Millwall won all of them, he wanted to win five in a row, but the last one had no chance.

But there is no way.

Even if Millwall is strong, even if he can play more tactically than his opponent, even if he has the magic power of 'following his words', but the opponent is not all vegetarians, occasionally encountering difficult bones, plus luck is very average, it is normal to draw.

"If you don't lose, maybe you can call it a success?"

Zhang Yang thought.

In the final fifth round of the league, the match between Liverpool and Millwall ended 0-0.

————

After the game, Zhang Yang shook hands with Benitez, there was really nothing to say, he was not in a good mood, after all, he was looking forward to winning, and in the end he only drew with Liverpool.

At the post-match press conference, Zhang Yang couldn't help but bombard, "I only saw one team working hard in the game, and that was Millwall. ”

"Opponents? No, it's not a normal game, it's like we're doing offensive drills. ”

'It's hard to imagine it's Liverpool.'

'I'm very sorry we didn't give the fans a good game, but we did well enough to have 67 per cent possession and that was the answer.

"One point? Maybe it's acceptable, but I'm just sorry about the process. ”

“……”

These words are actually ineffective, Liverpool will not be affected, and Benitez will not adjust his tactics because of this, Zhang Yang just wants to vent it, criticize Liverpool and Benitez, and bring a little pressure to the other party by the way.

Millwall's results are good enough.

Five rounds into the Premier League, Millwall are arguably the winners.

Won four of the five games, drew one, accumulated 13 points, scored 16 goals, averaged 3.2 goals per game, conceded two, and conceded an average of 0.4 goals.

Among the 20 teams in the Premier League, Millwall beat Arsenal on goal difference and ranked first in the league.

Among other rivals, Manchester United had the worst result, drawing two games and losing one, accumulating only eight points from five games; Chelsea draw one game and lose one game and only have ten points; Liverpool have played one game less and have only eight points.

Millwall can't be said to have opened up the gap, but they have a big advantage in the opening stages.

The fifth round of the Premier League was a dividing line, marking the end of a packed schedule of fixtures, followed by the international break, and the media had time to sort out the league situation, with Millwall receiving unanimous praise.

The Times won't miss the chance to tout the London club, "With five rounds to go, the top three in the league are occupied by London teams, with Millwall, Arsenal and Chelsea each taking a spot. ”

"Manchester United and Liverpool are a little bit worse and they should probably look for the reason in themselves."

'In the last round of the league game, a lot of people were focused on the big game at Anfield and it was disappointing as the home side Liverpool defended all the time and it was as if they were trying to get another point from the first minute. In the end, they got a point, but with such passivity, it is very unrealistic to try to win the league title, even if they have 38 draws (unbeaten), they will only have 38 points. ”

'Millwall's performance is much more pleasing to the eye, and their attacking style of play justifies being number one in the league. With them playing more fluidly and getting better than last season, it's no wonder more fans are falling in love with Millwall. ”

The Times summed up the five rounds of the competition and also selected the best team, with Vardy, Braniff and Zambrotta all selected.

Many media reports have also been full of praise for Millwall's players, and the most talked-about players are striker Vardy and midfielder Braniff.

Jamie Vardy was the top scorer with five goals in four league appearances and a impressive performance.

Braniff was considered the 'best player' by a number of media outlets because he was so good that five assists and one goal sounded incredible, with many teams failing to score six goals, not even Manchester United, and the Red Devils scoring just four goals in five games.

The two were also analyzed in detail together.

The media found that in many games, Vardy and Braniff were prone to create classic combinations, and there was a very tacit understanding between them, which could no longer be explained by tactics, because between other players, between Braniff, Vardy and other players, did not show this tacit understanding.

Of course, it can't be a question of competence.

Everyone agrees that the best player in Millwall's squad is the heart of the midfield, and the 'core' refers to Morris, and perhaps with the addition of Sneijder, Braniff is a bit worse than that, and Jamie Vardy is even more incomparable.

The chemistry between Vardy and Braniff has also created many chances, with three of Vardy's goals coming from Braniff's assists.

"Braniff and Vardy are the perfect combination!" Manchester Sport reported on it.

Manchester Sport is not well-intentioned, they want to remind Manchester United to pay attention to the combination of Branifer and Vardy when playing against Millwall.

The hearts of the media may be a little too cao.

Zhang Yang has also been praised by the media, but compared to the praise of leading the team, the media seems to be more like gossiping about the love life, which is also unpleasant, whenever Zhang Yang is mentioned in the report, it always leads to the love life, Ivanka is the name that must be mentioned, as if the combination of Zhang Yang and Ivanka is a major event related to the future of football.

This also made Zhang Yang feel very helpless.

Zhang Yang is even more helpless that during the international break, most of the players have to go to the national team games.

Millwall can be described as not what it used to be, with four England internationals alone: Graham, Darren Ward, Morris, Livermore.

Zhang Yang was a little tempted to call McLaren and tell him not to 'take care' of Millwall's impulsiveness.

The only good news is that Vardy is not in the squad, perhaps McClaren is considering the accumulation of forwards, with Rooney, Owen, Defoe, plus Darren Bent, Vardy's selection means removing a name.

Who to cull out?

Wayne Rooney? Definitely not! Wayne Rooney is Manchester United's main player, England's talented goalscorer, and his fame is so great that he provokes public anger without a call-up.

Michael Owen?

Owen's form is a problem and he is constantly affected by injuries, but for the same reason as Wayne Rooney, England's golden boy has a large number of fans, even if he has not performed well recently, as long as he is not injured, he will definitely be selected for the national team.

Defoe?

Defoe, who plays for Tottenham Hotspur, has maintained a high efficiency in scoring goals for a long time, and finally got into the national team, and it doesn't seem good to be eliminated directly.

Darren Bent?

McLaren doesn't want to get under pressure, Bent is the top scorer in the league and the Champions League last season, and his performance is also the best after entering the national team, so McLaren has no choice, in fact, he is quite optimistic about Vardy, especially Vardy has been in great shape recently, scoring five goals in four league games, which is simply a goal machine.

However, there was no choice.

In addition to England players, players from other countries have been called up to a larger proportion, with players such as Zambrotta, Braniff, Sneijder, Wes Morgan and others all making it to their respective national teams.

Most of the core players went to the national team, Millwall wanted to train normally, Zhang Yang carefully counted the heads, and found that only one team could be formed, ten people stood on the court, there was no training atmosphere at all, he simply gave the team two days, and he himself took the opportunity to accompany Ivanka more.

————

Zhang Yang and Ivanka went to see the house together.

Beers Avenue is located close to the River Thames and is separated by only one square from the famous wealthy neighbourhood of Kensington Palace Garden Street, which is not the most expensive in London, but it is definitely quite expensive, and the working class can only visit it.

Zhang Yang is the second time to come.

He had a plan to buy a house, so he came here for a walk, but he didn't make a final decision, so it was better to come with Ivanka.

Beers Avenue is similar in style to Kensington Palace Garden Street, but the villas are relatively low, most of them are three-storey houses, some are decades old, and some are newly built commercial homes.

Under the enthusiastic leadership of the intermediary, Zhang Yang and Ivanka visited several houses in a row, and finally took a fancy to a three-story villa with a garden and an iron fence.

"Mr. Zhang Yang, you have a good vision, the former owner of this villa is Mr. Maienko, his business has done Manchester, and the family has also moved to the north, so he decided to sell it."

Zhang Yang didn't know who the so-called Mr. Maienke was, he only cared about how much the house was, "How much is the offer?" ”

"Five and a half million pounds."

The agent said a price, which seemed to be a bit expensive, and continued, "You should understand that this is a wealthy area, and the surrounding land prices are very high, and they have been rising in recent years, and if you decide to buy, I can talk to Mr. Maienko." If he knows that you are going to buy it, I believe it will be cheaper. ”

The group all looked at Zhang Yang.

Ivanka whispered, "Zhang, let's take a look at other houses, the villas here are too expensive." She probably knows Zhang Yang's salary, and the money she earns in a year is not enough to buy this villa.

Zhang Yang just hesitated and asked, "If I decide to buy, when will I be able to complete the formalities at the earliest." ”

The intermediary was rather surprised, "What? Have you decided to buy? ”

Zhang Yang nodded.

"Okay! The fastest, you say? Good! I immediately contacted Mr. Meenko! ”

Taking advantage of the intermediary's phone call, Ivanka couldn't help but pull her flamboyant sleeves, frowned and whispered, "Do you really want to buy this villa?" However, more than five million pounds ...... "Even if he is from high society, Ivanka knows what more than five million pounds means, Zhang Yang has only been engaged in coaching for a few years now, and it must be quite difficult to save more than five million pounds, mainly because Zhang Yang is equivalent to buying it for himself, because of his arrival, he decided to buy a villa in a rich area, otherwise Zhang Yang lives in a three-story building, which is also quite spacious and comfortable, which also makes Ivanka feel very moved and guilty."

In Ivanka's mind, Zhang Yang is equivalent to spending all his money to buy a villa.

Zhang Yang touched Ivanka's hair affectionately and said with a smile, "It seems that you don't know me very well." ”

"More than five million pounds, I still can't afford it." Zhang Yang didn't plan to explain in detail, he was afraid that Ivanka would be worried, after all, leveraged finance is too risky, and in the eyes of others, he is equivalent to a madman.

Zhang Yang had already prepared the funds, and he had his own considerations.

When he decided to buy a new house, he decided to buy a good one, the house prices in the rich areas of London are very expensive, but the rich areas will not be disturbed, and life will be much easier, he doesn't want Ivanka to suffer.

If he wanted to buy a house in a wealthy area, it would cost more than a million pounds at every turn, and he asked Tagore to transfer part of the profits to his own account early, not much, only 10 million dollars.

When she buys this villa, Ivanka will be able to live with peace of mind.

This is an important step in the development of the relationship.

Ivanka has been living in London with her children for a long time, and she has a chance to win the bid again.

Ahem...... The future doesn't seem to be a problem anymore.
