From the moment the agreement was signed, Zhang Yang became a member of Millwall, and his position was 'match coach', whose specific job was to analyse the game situation as a head coach to help make adjustments in a timely manner.

This job may be unique in world professional football, and even the job title was conceived by Gregory alone.

Zhang Yang thought it was very interesting.

After a few pleasantries in the office, the preliminary content of the work also began.

"I think you need to know enough about Millwall and the team as a whole to help analyse the game. ”

Ebenezer said the point, "Your work will be completed tomorrow." ”

Zhang Yang listened and nodded.

Next, Ebenezer took Zhang Yang to visit the entire Millwall club.

Millwall FC is a small club, with a total market value of only 10 million pounds, the club covers a relatively small area, and the supporting youth training base is only a rented field, and the training ground of the first team is connected to the club.

After a circle around the club, we soon arrived at the first-team training ground, where the players had already started their morning training, and the stadium was a lively scene.

The two watched outside for a while, and Ebenezer smiled, "I think you need to get to know all the players, and they need to know you, so you will be together a lot in the future." ”

"I think so too."

The two walked into the training ground together.

Ebenezer was seen approaching with a young Asian man, and he was greeted by a short and stocky middle-aged man, dressed in a sporty, slightly youthful face, but with a little gray hair.

"Frederick Lawton, assistant coach."

"This is Zhang, and he will be the team's 'game coach' in the future." Ebenezer introduced Frederick.

The two shook hands.

Frederick was stunned for a long time when he heard Zhang Yang's position, "'Race instructor', what is that?" ”

"Mr. Gregory believes that Zhang's ability to analyze the game will help the team's game, and he will be responsible for everything related to the game in the future." Ebenezer explained.

"Aren't you kidding?"

Frederick's expression was a little complimentary, he was obviously a little incredulous, and his eyes were not very friendly.

"It's not April Fool's Day, and I don't like to joke around on other days. Zhang just signed a work contract, and you will work together from now on. ”

Frederick was stunned.

Ebenezer continued, "We are here to familiarize Zhang Xian with the team, his future work is related to the game, if he doesn't know anything about the team, I don't think his work can continue. ”

Frederick understood what Ebenezer meant, but he dragged his feet, very reluctant to assemble the team, and his mouth was still nagging, "The team is training normally, there are games in the afternoon, in order to introduce a young man, yes, he is not as old as the player, I can't believe what Mr. Gregory thinks." ”

Ebenezer paid attention to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang kept a cold face, and during the whole process, his expression did not change at all, except for a word when he shook hands with Frederick, he never said a word more.

He's watching.

The experience of his past life taught him that everything happens for a reason.

Like now, Frederick is disgusted with him, but why? Both men have since worked on the coaching staff and their contracts do not conflict.

It can't be because I'm young.

Just like that, the other person will despise themselves instead of being hostile.

He's also watching other people, including Ebenezer, including the players on the pitch, and as Grigory said, he should get to know the team better.

At the same time, he also needs to make a disguise with his expression.

No matter how reluctant Frederick was, all the players still gathered, and everyone looked towards Zhang Yang, they all knew that the purpose of the gathering was for this young Asian man.

Yes, young people.

Most of the first-team players are also older than Zhang Yang, and it is not an exaggeration to call them 'young'.

Under the gaze of these many people, Zhang Yang had a relaxed expression, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, which seemed to be a kind smile, or it could be a rejection of strangers, but in any case, just the calm performance in the face of everyone made everyone have a plus in their hearts.

"This is Zhang, and he will be the team's 'match coach' in the future, specializing in things related to the game, including participating in the game with the team leader."

Ebenezer introduced again.

There were so many first-team players that they probably didn't mean to introduce themselves, and Ebenezer simply asked Frederick to name them in turn, which Frederick reluctantly did, feeling that this method of understanding was a waste of time.

Roll call?

How many can that kid remember?

Zhang Yang just stood there, smiling and listening, he didn't seem to care, but he had already activated the 'memory enhancement' ability and memorized everyone's names.

It wasn't until the last name was pronounced that Frederick waved the players to disband.

Ebenezer was too late to stop it.

At this time, Zhang Yang asked a little strangely, "What about the head coach?" Shouldn't a team have a head coach? After he finished speaking, there was an old player who didn't leave.

Ebenezer pointed to the veteran player.

Zhang Yang spoke first, "If I'm not mistaken, your name is Denise Wise?" ”

Denice-Wise was cheerful, and he smiled with some surprise, "You remember my name?" I thought the first one called me, it's hard for you to remember. ”

"I remember everyone's names."

Zhang Yang replied with a smile, and the others didn't care.

"Dennis is the manager, he's a player and he's a part-time manager. ”

Zhang Yang was stunned.

He kind of understood why Grigory was looking for a 'match coach'.

Ebenezer ends here.

He is the manager of the club, considered Grigory's 'number one', in charge of all external affairs of the club, and his work is still very busy.

After helping Zhang Yang introduce everyone he should know, Ebenezer went back to work.

Zhang Yang went to the coach's office.

The coach's office is just a small office with a row of desks with four computers for the coaches to use, and a few rows of chairs in the middle of the open space.

It's also where the first-team players have tactical lessons.

Now the first-team players are training, and Denice-Wise is going around with Zhang Yang, and he is familiar with Wise along the way, this veteran player who is almost forty years old, is very kind to people, even if Zhang Yang is more than ten years younger than him, Wise does not mean to underestimate at all.

After talking to Denice Wise about the team, Zhang Yang learned a lot about why Frederick was hostile to him.

Previously, Dennis Wise was the team leader, Frederick was the assistant coach, and the two of them participated in the game, and when Denice-Wise played, Frederick exercised the right to be the head coach.

Now the flamboyance is here.

Zhang Yang was designated by the club's president Gregory as the 'match instructor', so he naturally had to participate in the game with the team, and a team could only play with two coaches, and Frederick lost the opportunity to participate in the game.

For a football coach, it is undoubtedly very important to participate in the game, and even directly direct the work of the game, only in that case, can he show his personal ability, otherwise the daily work of the assistant coach is only a blue-collar logistics support, and it is difficult to appear in front of the media and the public.

Frederick was robbed of his 'most limelight' job, and it was understandable that he was feeling unhappy.

Zhang Yang didn't sympathize with him at all.

If Frederick had done a good job, Grigory wouldn't have even thought about finding a 'match coach', and just look at Millwall's poor results in the relegation quagmire, you can see how unhappy Gregory is with Frederick.

There is competition everywhere in this world.

Frederick was one of those who was eliminated from the competition, and he may not have figured it out and felt that he didn't have a chance to perform, but in the eyes of others, he was not a competent game coach.

Denice Wise took Zhang Yang to the coach's office and turned to leave for training.

Zhang Yang looked at the information on the computer.

It contains all the Millwall players, including all the youth team players, as well as each player's salary, contract, length of contract and past appearances.

These are internal club materials.

Zhang Yang needs to look carefully to deepen his understanding of Millwall.
