That night, the media reported on the match of the Community Shield in England, as well as what Zhang Yang said in an interview.

Many media criticized the tradition of 'not valuing' English football, and the Community Shield is also England's Super Cup, and the game is not profitable, it is all for charity, but it is a bit too much to publicly say that the event is 'meaningless', and also said that 'regretting preparing for the game'.

When some media reported this, some football people came forward and said, "Millwall has got the Community Shield, of course he can say that." No matter what he says, there will be no change in the result, but Mourinho certainly doesn't want to hear that. ”

Wake up the dreamer in a word!

Millwall won the Community Shield, and as the head coach, he thought that the game was meaningless, regretted preparing for the game, and it was just words, and no fans would be dissatisfied, because Millwall played a wonderful game and won the final victory.

Chelsea, on the other hand, were prepared for the game, coming to the Millennium Stadium to play hard and end up with nothing.

Mourinho certainly doesn't want to hear things like 'the Community Shield doesn't make sense', and in addition, last year's Community Shield winner was Chelsea, and the Medal Shield was in the Chelsea Football Club's trophy showroom, and this year the FA took the Prize Shield, and then handed the Medal Shield to the champions Millwall, which is almost equal to Chelsea having one less trophy and Millwall King having one more trophy.

When you think about it from that perspective, Chelsea are certainly uncomfortable.

Of course, this is just a small topic, not much media involved in it, Zhang Yang thinks that the Community Shield is meaningless, and he is not alone in saying this, Wenger and Mourinho have said similar things, and all teams participating in the Community Shield should have similar feelings.

The content of the media report mainly lies in the substantive topics.

Take, for example, Millwall's goals for the season.

Millwall are one of the teams to watch in the Premier League as they were league champions last season and are sure to attract a lot of attention this season as the defending champions.

What are Millwall's goals for the season?

In terms of the league, most of the media believe that Manchester United and Chelsea are more likely to win the title, and some football analysts have also said, "This season's league title will be decided between Manchester United and Chelsea." The view of Millwall is that "they should aim for the top six, at most the top four, and to be able to stay high in the rankings is a huge success." ”

There are many supporters of this argument.

When the media reported the 'top six' goals mentioned by Zhang Yang, many people supported Zhang Yang's statement, believing that although Zhang Yang was young, he did not have the 'delusions' of young people, and set the goal very realistically.

But there are also some media outlets, reports that have questioned the voice, "The top six in the league? ”

"Remember last season, Zhang Yang always declared that Millwall's goal was relegation? The result? Millwall won the league! Now speaking of the top six, who can be sure that he is speaking from his heart, or a kind of sarcasm that disdains the voices of the outside world? ”

In response to Zhang Yang's 'Champions League goal', the media almost unanimously criticized --

'Millwall going to the Champions League to learn from it? What an irony! Millwall are league champions and represent the Premier League in Europe's top club competitions, only to gain experience? ”

"The Premier League will be the laughing stock of Europe! The Premier League champions are not even confident of qualifying from the group! ”

"Gaining experience? That's what the minor league teams say! Millwall are so strong in the Premier League that they should be confident in the Champions League! ”

"Maybe Millwall FC should consider letting a manager with Champions League experience lead the team, instead of continuing to trust Zhang Yang......"

“……”

The evening was very tight, the reports were all improvised, many of the reports were laughable, and by the next morning, the reports were much more rigorous, and the media were divided into two factions about Millwall's target views, one of which thought that the flamboyant remarks had been very low-key, and that he had only stated the minimum requirements.

On the other hand, the opposite is true, believing that Zhang Yang may choose to abandon the Champions League 'in order to secure his position'.

For Millwall, stability is certainly the most important thing, as when they arrive in the Champions League, the results will be full of uncertainties, and if they do not get league results, it will affect the long-term development of the club.

Millwall is only on the rise after all!

Most of the newly rising clubs, if they are multitasking, to fight for this and that, often the gains outweigh the losses, and in the end they will get nothing.

Millwall will be aiming for a top-six finish in the league and may have something to give.

No club will take the initiative to give up the Champions League, because the Champions League represents a huge interest, and Millwall Club will probably have a disagreement with Zhang Yang in this regard, but considering the club's long-term stable development, maybe they will also support Zhang Yang?

Contrarily.

If Millwall can't maintain the top six rankings, they can only be like Blackburn, who won the title once and quickly fell into it, continuing to fight at the bottom of the Premier League, not to mention the Champions League, and it is very difficult to qualify for European competitions.

When this happens, the flamboyant position will also be affected.

Millwall FC will definitely consider letting Zhang Yang go and hiring another head coach to give it a try.

That's the reality.

After the Community Shield, Millwall had a half-day off and in the afternoon they all gathered to continue training.

Zhang Yang gathered all the players to stand together and asked with a smile, "How does it feel to win the championship?" "All of a sudden, the players were in a mess --

"It's cool!"

"Great!"

"I really hope to win the championship every day!"

“……”

Zhang Yang looked at the players with a smile, and only after his voice was lowered did he say seriously, "If you want to win more championships, you must work harder." Yesterday against Chelsea, we played very well and pressed the opponents. But, now I want to warn you – be vigilant! ”

"Be vigilant!"

"A suppression is nothing, and a victory doesn't mean anything. We can play so well, I know better than you. So I'm sure the next time we meet Chelsea, it's not going to be so easy to win! ”

"Some people may think that I am worried about your pride and the team's carelessness, but that's not the case, I'm telling the truth. You may have noticed the voices from the outside world, many reports are praising our style of play, but no style of play is perfect, soon there will be opponents who know how to fight us, and what we have to do is continue to adapt to the tactics and continue to improve the ......"

Zhang Yang said some tactical things, and the overall meaning is to remind everyone to train hard, not to be arrogant because of a game against Chelsea, thinking that the team is invincible in the league.

In the end, Zhang Yang said, "As long as we keep working hard, we will definitely be able to win more games and play better results." I think the championship is everyone's favorite ......"

After that, Zhang Yang announced his disbandment, and the players began recovery training under the leadership of the assistant coach.

During the training process, a lot of players talked about it.

Many players were interested in the last sentence of 'the championship is everyone's thing', such as Pire, who asked Scholes, "I read the report at noon and made a big deal...... No, Boss, didn't Boss say that our league goal is only the top six? The Champions League is just an accumulation of experience, so why does he emphasize 'champions'? ”

Piret didn't understand what Zhang Yang was thinking.

Scholes laughed and pointed at Pierre with a funny face, "You believe those reports!" ”

"How?"

Other players also looked at the past, especially new players such as Barragán, Traore and Quaresma, who were very interested in the topic, Scholes laughed twice and explained, "I remember last season, the situation was the same as now, the boss never made the goal clear in the team, but externally he repeatedly stressed that the goal was relegation. ”

"As the league progressed, everyone found out that Millwall had been doing well, and finally when the team was very sure that they would be relegated, the boss said 'the goal is to fight for a better position'......"

“……？”

Pire didn't get it, and so did the other new players.

Braniff suddenly shouted, "The boss is fooling those reporters!" ”

Vardy followed up and said, "That's right, the boss is fooling them, he does it often, he does it all the time, the outside world says that our goal should be on relegation, the boss will say relegation to the outside world, that's definitely not the truth, because the boss has always been aiming for the title, when we are second in the league, he still let the whole team continue to work hard." ”

Jamie Vardy's explanation made it clear to the new players.

I see!

"So what are our goals for the season?" Barragan couldn't help but be curious and continued to ask.

"You're so stupid!"

Braniff's opening sentence made Barragan's face darken, and then he continued, "Jamie has already said it! The boss is fooling the reporter, we are ranked second in the league, the boss is still not satisfied, understand? ”

Blaniff's 'caring and mentally retarded' eyes made Barragan almost bleed, if it weren't for the other people's mouths, Blargan would definitely not be able to help but do it.

Eventually, Barragan held back.

He decided not to say a word to Braniff again, otherwise he didn't know if he would die of anger.

However, others are more concerned about Branifer's words, and Braniv has made it clear that Millwall's goal is to win the title, whether it's a league title or a Champions League title, it will make them excited.

They also had guesses from Zhang Yang's words before, but one person was not sure, and after having teammates to help them confirm, many people began to look forward to it.

Two days later, the trio of Yang, Wise and Wilkinson arrived at the Grimaldi Convention and Cultural Center in Monaco.

This is where the draw for this season's UEFA Champions League and group stage groups will be held.
