Chapter 91: Football Reception

After a busy day, Zhang Yang dragged his tired body back.

The manager's office is comfortable, but not as comfortable as your own cabin, which always feels like home.

Zhang Yang pushed open the door, changed his shoes, sat on the sofa and stretched out for a long time, turned on the TV by the way, and paid attention to the TV program.

Not long after I sat down, I turned my head to see Catherine coming downstairs, she was wearing a one-piece dressing gown, but she was not so relaxed, her hands clutched at the collar, and she covered it tightly.

Zhang Yang felt slightly regretful, "It's so late, haven't slept yet?" ”

"I heard a knock at the door, so I came down and looked." Catherine said and walked in front of Zhang Yang, the fragrance emanating from her body was a little unpleasant.

Catherine stared into his eyes, her expression becoming very serious, "You haven't been back for two days?" ”

"What?"

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded affirmatively after thinking about it carefully, "I was at the club yesterday and the day before yesterday, you know, the head coach's work is very busy. I actually wanted to go home, but I was too busy with work. ”

Catherine frowned slightly and asked, "Are you sure?" You didn't come back the night before? ”

"I'm pretty sure!"

Zhang Yang looked determined, he probably knew what this woman was going to ask, but he would definitely not admit it.

Seeing the man in front of her who didn't admit it, Catherine took a long breath, but in the end she didn't say anything, she turned around to go upstairs, and when she was at the top of the stairs, she turned her head and said, "Yesterday morning, when I was cleaning the room, I saw that your quilt was not folded, so I helped you tidy it up by the way, no thanks." ”

"Thank you."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he suddenly realized that it was not good.

When Catherine went upstairs, he immediately went upstairs, and when he entered the room, he found that the table was clean and the quilt was neatly folded.

Zhang Yang tugged at the corners of his mouth, "It turns out that she already knows!" He breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good she didn't tell John!" ”

"That's not right!"

He suddenly realized that since Catherine moved back, his privacy had been seriously violated, and the room was always in and out at will.

"Wouldn't it be nice if I changed the lock? Perhaps, I should consider moving out? ”

Zhang Yang pondered.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, Zhang Yang went to the club and met David Livermore at the training ground.

Livermore is warming up for laps.

Zhang Yang stopped him, and when he saw his sweaty face, he couldn't help asking, "David, how long have you been here?" ”

"About half an hour."

"You've been running for half an hour?"

"Almost."

Zhang Yang looked Livermore up and down, satisfied with his efforts, and then went straight to the point, he talked about training, "As I said yesterday, you have to complete 500 long-range shots every day during your three-day vacation, and I will find a coach to assist you." ”

Livermore nodded, "Don't worry, boss, I'll do it all." ”

Zhang Yang went to the coach's office, glanced at the list of people hanging on the wall, and found a phone named Bruno Boehly.

He called.

Bruno Boehly was only 23 years old and was once part of Millwall's youth team, but then he was unable to play and was considered unpromising, but Boehly did not leave Millwall, choosing to stay at the club and work as an auxiliary coach.

This job, to put it bluntly, is a 'handyman'.

He does everything.

During the club's holidays, he will also help on duty to manage and maintain the stadium.

As soon as he received the call from Zhang Yang and learned the general news, Bruno Boehly rushed to the first-team training ground.

"Burleigh, do you have time? I want you to help David with long-range shooting training, just for these three days. ”

"Of course, sir, I'm free, and besides, call me Bruno."

"Then I'll give him to you!"

"No problem!"

Bruno Boehly is very motivated, and in terms of his job, assisting the first-team players in training is a step up in the job and can give him valuable experience.

In the football coaching industry, the key to moving up the ladder is experience.

This is a rare opportunity.

Bruno Boehly is still young, but he already has a second-level coaching certificate, and it is more reassuring to assist a player in simple training.

Ten o'clock.

Zhang Yang and Gregory went out together and walked to the parking lot behind the building.

Grigory took out the keys and was about to open the car door when he suddenly smiled and asked, "Do you know how to drive?" ”

Zhang Yang nodded.

"Do you have a driver's license?"

Zhang Yang continued to take the lead, "I passed the exam two years ago. ”

"That's great, you're driving, I'm just trying to take a break." Grigory turned and sat in the co-pilot.

Zhang Yang took the key and got into the car.

Gligory's car is a 30,000 or 40,000 pound family light car, somewhat similar to the Beetle, despite its small size, and its ability to speed up is very good.

Zhang Yang is not suitable for the left and right directions.

Perhaps it was due to the habits of his previous life, he was used to driving on the right-hand side, and the traffic in Britain was diametrically opposed, but he quickly adapted to it, and the car drove much more steadily.

Smooth journey.

The car drove into a manor.

After getting out of the car, Grigory smiled, "I didn't think it would be a smooth journey, and I was worried that there would be accidents, but I didn't expect your driving skills to be good." ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "I haven't driven for a while." ”

"Aren't you thinking about buying a car?"

"Not thinking about it yet." Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Maybe I'll be interested in it later." ”

Since the crossing, he has not been running around in life, and now that he is the head coach again, he is so busy with work that he has no time to think about improving his life.

The two laughed and walked into the villa of the manor.

The villa is very luxurious, the living room is brightly decorated, and the hall is large enough to accommodate dozens of people, Gregory said, "It is a venue provided by the famous English footballers, and every year the post-Christmas reception is held here, for seven years in a row." ”

When they entered the hall, the service staff checked the invitation, and after the two entered, someone greeted Gligory.

"Old Gligory!"

"I knew you were coming. You'll have a few more years to do! ”

Grigory smiled and nodded in response.

Zhang Yang found that there were still many people who knew Grigory, and when he saw almost a person, he would say a few words to Grigory.

"Because I come every year." Grigory explained in a whisper, "But just to a party, to have two glasses of fine wine, to get together with old friends, in fact, I never don't care what the party will be." ”

Gregory went to talk to his friends, and Zhang Yang walked around the hall alone, they came a little early, and there were still very few people in the venue.

Zhang Yang walked to the window, and there was a hanging banner next to him, which readβ€”

The annual reception of English clubs on the topic: The Development of Professional Football in England.

We welcome you to stop by and join the discussion.

Invited by: David Dane, Deputy Chairman of the FA and Deputy Chairman of Arsenal FC.

"A cocktail party and a topic?" Zhang Yang smiled and shook his head, just stood in front of the window and looked outside.

From the window, you can see the front of the manor.

Small garden, green lawn, a medium-sized swimming pool on the right, the environment in front of you is very pleasant, there are a few cars driving in front of the gate, that should be for the reception.

Behind him, Gregory shouted.

Zhang Yang stepped over.

Grigory introduced the smiling old man next to him, "This is Harry Redknapp, we're old friends. ”

Zhang Yang didn't react for a while, and after taking a closer look, he suddenly took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "Hello, Mr. Redknapp, just call Zhang." ”

This is a respectable old handsome.

Redknapp is one of England's most famous veteran coaches, having managed countless teams and had a successful coaching career.

Redknapp shook hands with him and smiled, "You're Zhang!" I've heard of you, and a lot of media have reported it. Grigory just said about you, you've done a good job, and Millwall have been doing really well in recent times. You're so young, I can't even imagine what it will be like in another ten or twenty years! ”

Zhang Yang also complimented Redknapp, "Your work achievements are truly admirable." ”

Then the two began to talk.

Redknapp is quite easy to get along with, he just keeps lamenting Zhang Yang's youth, and Zhang Yang takes the initiative to talk about leading the team.

In terms of being the head coach, Zhang Yang is still just a rookie.

I don't understand a lot of things.

It's okay to lead the team in training and games, but when it comes to dealing with the team and the club, you need some old-timer experience.

On this topic, the two talked a lot.

Gregory didn't know when he left.

At this time, Zhang Yang noticed that there were many more people in the venue, including many celebrities.

For example, Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson, Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho, and Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, several top coaches are surrounded by a lot of people.

More attention than celebrities are beautiful women.

The organizer invited some local female models to participate to liven up the atmosphere, and the beautifully dressed female models interspersed with the crowd always attracted a lot of attention.

One of the most high-profile is Lily Huntington.

The year before last, Lily Huntington made her debut to take a photo, and she appeared on the cover of British Vogue magazine that month, and then went to participate in various clothing catwalks, and she will always become a high-profile one.

Zhang Yang took a few more looks.

At this time, a tall model took the initiative to talk to her with red wine, "Hello, are you looking at Lily?" But she may not be interested in you. Come, get acquainted? Rosie Pearce. ”

"Publicity."

The two shook hands.

Rosie Pearce couldn't help but ask, "You're so young, who brought you here, I mean, football coaches are old men, whose nephew are you?" ”

Zhang Yang shrugged, "Actually, I'm the head coach of Millwall. ”

"You're the manager? Millwall? Rosie Pearce looked surprised, and this shout was also heard by the people next to her.

Many people have seen Zhang Yang before, and some know and don't know, but they don't say hello if they are not familiar.

Zhang Yang also stood in the corner in a low-key manner.

Rosie Pearce 'helped' to publicize, and immediately someone came over to get to know her, and Zhang Yang hurriedly put on a smiling face to deal with it.

It's friendly.

Most people are a little apathetic and ignore Zhang Yang at all.

Joe Royle, who came over with a wine glass, said what most people thought, "Zhang, I'm surprised to see you, Millwall played well last time. But I think when you lose your job and you can't work at Millwall, remember to come to Ipswich and my coaching staff will give you a place. ”
