In the score of 'Speech and Spirit Measurement', three to six points is already a big difference.

The score of 'Speech and Spirit Calculation', the high unit is the star, the low unit is the 'score', ten points are equal to one star, one star is one grade worse, five points is half a star, and the average difference of half a star is enough to show the excellence of the 352 formation play.

A good style of play requires more adaptation time, such as last season's team to adapt to the two-core style of play, and the pre-season preparation is only able to play, far from being proficient, and it will definitely take time to adapt to the new formation.

Those veteran players who are familiar with dual-core tactics, because they have a dual-core tactical foundation, adapt to the 352 formation for a week in a row, and they cannot be said to be proficient in use, and it is not a big problem to apply them to actual combat.

New players are a bit more cumbersome, especially midfielders with complex tactics, such as Sneijder, who take a long time to get to know and get to know each other, and a week is not enough.

Zhang Yang asked them to 'understand' the tactics, and then there was still time to slowly familiarize themselves with them.

This was the goal of tactical training before the 'China trip'.

Millwall lasted a week of training, repeating the same pattern every day, the morning was the warm-up and tactical training, the afternoon was mainly tactical classes, the rest of the time was free to train, the players wanted to do something, as long as they stayed on the training ground, even if they sat on the grass and waited for time, it didn't matter much.

It sounds like training is easy, but every player feels hard.

The hard time in the morning is the training, because the training is very hard, some players have to cooperate with the physical training, tactical training must be attended by everyone, the physical consumption is very large, finally survived the morning, the afternoon began the most difficult tactical class, the tactical class is very brain-draining, every player must listen carefully, at least they need to show a serious listening attitude.

Although the tactical class is similar to a student's class, students who do not listen to the class will be named and punished by the teacher at most, which is not important to the players at all, and it is completely equivalent to resting.

Zhang Yang will take the time to ask questions by name, it doesn't matter if he can't answer, if he can't keep up with the progress, he will 'stay in the classroom' and let a separate assistant coach guide him.

This is the most painful.

It's okay to meet other assistant coaches, the players are most afraid of running into Frederick, Frederick's temper has not been very good recently, which is very disgusting to the players, but Humpty Dumpty is still like this, and he has become even worse, his attitude can't be said to be bad, anyway, it's a little unlucky, for 'stupid' players, it is a trivial matter to secretly ridicule, and loud scolding is also common.

A player, no matter how famous he is, can't wrestle with the coach, because no matter what he does, it will be wrong to pass it outside, and in addition, there is head coach Zhang Yang standing behind all the assistant coaches, and they dare not do anything.

Don't listen to tactical lessons, what I'm most afraid of is publicity.

If Zhang Yang thinks that a player didn't listen to the class, he is completely unreasonable, ask a question and answer it, he will ask a second question, and answer it continuously, it doesn't matter, he will find something that has not been taught, or other irrelevant questions.

Josh Simpson, for example, has this kind of thing.

Simpson has always listened attentively, but he had a few quarrels with his 'uncle' Livermore because of his date with Irina.

By the time it was time for tactics lessons, Simpson was still whispering to Livermore.

Livermore was a little impatient.

Zhang Yang noticed Simpson's small movements, and immediately named Simpson, Simpson is a serious player, and his learning ability is not bad, and he answered the questions one by one, and saw Zhang Yang impatiently continued to ask, "Where is the capital of the United States?" ”

Simpson was completely stunned.

Zhang Yang yelled at Simpson, "You're a Canadian, you don't even know where the capital of your neighboring country is!" This should be common sense, even if it is an indigenous African! ”

Simpson hurriedly raised his hand, "But, coach...... I know...... It's Washington......"

"You're too slow to answer! I definitely didn't listen carefully, I will go back later today and have to tutor! ”

The other players laughed and threw a look of pity at Simpson.

Through continuous tactical lessons, the new players have also learned about Zhang Yang, and the ability to Zhang Yang in their eyes is still good, the new tactics are very novel and very attractive, I heard that he has formulated them single-handedly, which is definitely quite remarkable.

In addition, they also experienced the authority of flamboyance.

In the whole team, Zhang Yang is absolutely the same, even if it is unreasonable, many people will support him, even if it is a punished player, he will not say a little complaint.

That's the real authority.

Zhang Yang is also very principled in leading the team, as long as he doesn't touch his bottom line and does something out of the ordinary, such as joking on weekdays, it doesn't matter much, and things involving training are one of the bottom lines.

Tactical lessons are something that every player must listen to, even if his mind is a little fluttering, he must also show a serious attitude, and attitude actually determines the degree of patience.

To sum up, it is about team training and games, Zhang Yang will be very serious, and other things will not matter much.

"It's no wonder that such a coach can lead the team to good results."

Many new players sighed.

A week passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the last day, and after the tactical training session, Zhang Yang announced something that the players were looking forward to, "Tomorrow at noon, everyone will gather, and we will fly to SZ City, China." ”

The 'China Tour' is about to begin.

A lot of the players feel a lot easier.

It's not that they are all looking forward to the 'commercial show', mainly during the 'commercial show', the training will definitely be easier, the competition will be performative, and it will probably be very interesting, and for them, the 'China tour' is more fun.

————

The Millwall Club's planned 'China Tour' will last for a total of five days, with three cities flying to each other, with the first destination being SZ.

Millwall will play a friendly match against SZ at SZ and will fly to SH City in the evening after the game, and similarly, there will be a match in SH City.

After arriving at their final destination, BJ City, Millwall's itinerary coincided with Barcelona's 'China Tour', where the two sides agreed to have a friendly match of a commercial nature.

Five days, three cities, three games, that's all planned.

Millwall's business trip was also very straightforward, going to international cities, mainly for publicity, the two games against Chinese teams were to cater to local fans, and the game against Barcelona was to show the team's true style.

Many people say that the top club 'China tour' is to make money, in fact, it is more important to make a name for yourself, and the purpose of Millwall is also to make a name for yourself, because the income of three games, a total of less than 100 million yuan, it is difficult to really attract Millwall, because the commercial game takes time, the most important five days of pre-season preparation, every day is worth a thousand dollars, and more adequate preparation will make the team perform better in the season.

100 million yuan, which seems to be a lot, is less than 8 million pounds when converted into pounds, and for the top clubs competing for the championship, 8 million pounds affects the pre-season preparations, and no matter how you think about it, it is a bit worth the loss.

So propaganda is the main thing.

Many European giants have Chinese publicity plans, such as Manchester United and Real Madrid, and they will go to China once every few years to promote and attract the attention of Chinese fans.

This kind of attention is continuous, which will lead to higher popularity of the club, as well as various commercial benefits, and the more well-known teams can easily get higher sponsorships.

Wait a minute.

Fame is much more important than direct profit.

On 29 July, the Millwall team arrived at SZ City International Airport by plane.

Due to the time difference, when he arrived, it was seven o'clock in the morning the next morning, and the time was morning and Zhang Yang took a long breath, feeling that he would not encounter too many obstacles at the airport, but when he walked out of the airport, he found that he was very wrong.

On both sides of the airport road, it has been surrounded by fans, and the fans are desperately squeezing to the front, so that the media reporters in the front row do not have many footholds, and the crowded scene is really exciting.

The airport security is like a big enemy to maintain order, but there are too many fans.

The moment Zhang Yang led the team out, the security guards felt too busy, because the fans exploded with enthusiasm, not only shouting, they were also desperately squeezing forward, all wanting to take a closer look at Zhang Yang and the Millwall players.

This kind of scene is very shocking.

Morris and Simpson came together, they were both looking left and right, and Simpson said with some surprise, "Josh, how many fans are there?" Thousands? Million? ”

"Probably a few thousand, right?" Morris wasn't sure either.

The other players also looked in amazement, they didn't expect that there would be so many fans coming to the airport to greet them when they set foot on Chinese soil.

Not only the fans, but also the media reporters.

Standing in the front row were all media reporters, with various equipment in their hands, all pointing at Millwall's line, and a cursory glance showed that there must be hundreds of people.

It's simply amazing!

Millwall has a league game, and the number of reporters who come to Neil Stadium to cover the occasion, sometimes only a few hundred, is the airport, not the place for interviews, and there are so many reporters present.

Zhang Yang walked in front a little excitedly, and did not let Pierce, Frederick and others be reminded to maintain order in the players.

"Cheer up! We're here! ”

Frederick yelled.

Recently, Frederick's majesty in the team has increased greatly, and the players are helpless against him, and they can only obey Frederick's command.

This shows that severity still works.

As for whether the players have resistance in their hearts, it doesn't matter much, Zhang Yang doesn't care about this, but he is very happy to see Frederick can sing blackface, he only sings a red face easily, the team training is not only no problem, but also can get the gratitude of the players, it is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

When Millwall's team walked through the crowd, there were still some problems.

The number of airport security guards was a little small, and they couldn't stop the fans completely, and a crowd of fans rushed over and blocked the road for the Millwall team.

Zhang Yang hurriedly greeted the fans, and asked the players to follow suit, but the scene still became chaotic, the Millwall team was completely confined to the same place, and under the obstruction of the security guards, the fans couldn't rush in, but Millwall didn't want to leave.

What to do?

The fans are so enthusiastic, they are not violent or anything, the main thing is that there are too many fans, the fans in the back are still squeezing in, the front ones are squeezed in the middle, and it is very difficult to go back, and even many reporters don't have a place to take up.

After Zhang Yang saw that the security captain was useless to shout continuously, he reluctantly walked over and said, "Give me the megaphone, and I'll say a few words." ”

"Okay, you try." The security captain enthusiastically handed over the equipment, Zhang Yang took the equipment and tried the sound, and then shouted, "Everyone be quiet!" I'm Zhang Yang! Everyone, be quiet! ”

Now the scene was quiet.

Fans, media reporters and everyone looked over, no one spoke, everyone wanted to hear what Zhang Yang said, Zhang Yang showed a somewhat tired smile and said, "We should all know me, so we won't introduce ourselves." Today, I'm taking Millwall back and I'm very excited because this is the land of my country, you are the most dear fans, and for me it means something completely different. ”

"Now, I'm surprised to see so many people coming to welcome me and welcome us, but I'm also very happy because I know that there are so many people in the country who support me and support the whole team, it's a wonderful feeling."

"I'm very excited and grateful for your support, but I also hope you can understand us, my team just flew here from the UK, almost halfway around the world, it's a long journey, everyone is tired, my players also need to rest, because in the UK, it's time to sleep, we will stay at SZ for both days, so I hope you can give us time to reverse the jet lag, tomorrow we can cheer up and give you a good game!"

"Thank you! Thank you! ”

After Zhang Yang's voice fell, many fans and reporters began to applaud, and the fans also consciously gave way, and the job of the security guards was much easier, and they quickly lost a way to let the whole Millwall team and the passengers behind them pass.

Zhang Yang walked in the front, passing by fans who were close to each other, and shaking hands with each other, walking slowly along the way, but the process was very exciting.

The same goes for the Millwall players behind him.

Most of them were coming to China for the first time, and they didn't expect that there would be so many fans here, which was a little unimaginable, even if the whole of London Millwall fans, all combined, the number was hundreds of thousands.

When Millwall returned from winning the Champions League trophy, the number of fans who came to pick them up was only more than 3,000.

That's pretty shocking.

Now when I come to a city in China, there are thousands of fans who come to pick up the plane, and many players are a little incredulous, and they feel the enthusiasm of the fans as they walk, and every player feels very excited.

Although everyone was tired, they were all in good spirits and began to look forward to this trip to China.
