Chapter 67: Divination

Millwall Club, President's Office.

No one spoke.

Grigory, Ebenezer, Aldous, all the faces came into view, and everyone was looking at him.

Zhang Yang pushed the door and walked in, feeling nervous for no reason.

Since the crossing, including going to BBC TV, including signing for Millwall, Zhang Yang has never been nervous, and he has just been relaxed from the inside and outside in front of all the players, including many people at the club.

Now he's nervous.

It's like attending an interview for the first time, always worrying about your performance, checking your resume frequently, paying attention to your image, and thinking about whether you will pass.

It's not an interview, but it's more intense than an interview.

Zhang Yang realized that he was going to become the head coach of Millwall, and when he gave an impassioned speech on the field, he just felt that he should fight hard, but when he became the head coach, he was still very surprised in his heart.

"I'm going to be the head coach?"

"Me? Publicity? The manager of a Championship team? ”

Zhang Yangchang exhaled, and a smile reappeared on his face, "Lao Tzu is about to become the head coach!" ”

It's a challenge in a whole new field!

Gregory sat in the sofa chair, paying attention to the changes in Zhang Yang's expression, and he saw all those details, and he found that he could not see through the young man.

He has lived in the world for 65 years, and he has experienced a lot.

But the young man in front of him was really surprising.

He and Ebenezer had just discussed it, and they began to agree that Frederick was the best fit to be the manager, that he had a lot of training experience and that he would be very calm about the game.

After what happened at the training ground, they all changed their views.

Frederick?

That's a guy who can't make it!

Standing on the training ground, facing a group of familiar players, he will feel nervous, can such a guy handle the pressure of a manager's job?

The answer is obvious.

This young man is different, although he is younger, but he is more mature, the ability to lead the team is worth looking forward to, maybe he has a lot of lack of experience, but the training affairs can be completely taken care of by Frederick, and in other aspects, Aldous can also help.

There was a moment of silence in the office.

Finally Grigory spoke, "Zhang, you have only been in the team for more than ten days, and I didn't expect that so many players would vote for you." But like we said before, you've got the support of the fans, you've got the support of the players, so why shouldn't I support you as manager? ”

"Thank you."

Zhang Yang smiled and expressed his gratitude.

Gregory continued, "You don't work long hours, but your ability to work is recognized by everyone. You're still young, but young people deserve more opportunities, and I think we should all believe in you. Is that right? I'm not demanding, this season we have to finish relegation! ”

Gregory stared at Zhang Yang solemnly.

Zhang Yang smiled heartily, "Mr. Grigory, as long as you believe in me, as long as the club believes in me, I believe that relegation is just a small goal!" I will lead the team to try to get better results! ”

Grigory smiled.

He walked over and patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder and said to Ebenezer and Aldous, "Zhang is always full of confidence, and I like that. ”

"yes, so do I." Ebenezer sighed.

Aldous shook hands with Zhang Yang very formally, "Mr. Grigory thinks that I should be asked to assist you in completing your work, and I will work in the first team in the future." ”

"We'll be good partners!"

Zhang Yang shook hands with Aldous frankly.

————

Aldous was somewhat grateful.

As Zhang Yang became the head coach, he was also promoted to first assistant coach.

Grigory was considering Frederick to take over the vacancy left by Dennis Wise's injury, but the plan could not keep up with the change, and all the players supported Zhang Yang, so he could only appoint Zhang Yang as interim manager.

Then there will be a big change in the plan.

Take Frederick, for example.

Previously, they had intended Frederick and Zhang Yang to work together, but only if Frederick was the head coach.

In many ways, Zhang Yang is still a newcomer.

In order to make the first team's results more consistent and not too much of a surprise, Gregory promoted youth team director Aldous to the position of first assistant coach of the first team. Frederick is still in charge of training, but he is already the 'second assistant coach'.

Any professional football coach wants to keep climbing the ladder.

It's the same with Aldous.

Being an assistant coach of the first team is definitely much better than being in charge of the youth team.

Aldous's job has not been smooth for the past few years, he was originally an assistant coach in the first team, but due to his old-fashioned personality and disliked by the previous manager, the club relegated him to the youth team, and he did not return to the first team until the previous manager left.

It's an infuriating story.

Now that he is back in the first team and working as the 'first assistant coach', Aldous and Zhang Yang are equally happy.

Zhang Yang left the chairman's office with a new contract.

It wasn't a new contract, it was just a 'supplemental clause' to the old one, and Grigory fulfilled his promise to increase his weekly salary to £4,500.

That's more than some of the young players in the squad.

Zhang Yang had a smile on his face on his way back to the first-team training ground, but the high salary also brought pressure, and he had to lead the team to good results.

That's a challenge!

Zhang Yang did feel the pressure, just like others understood, he didn't understand too much about professional coaching, the only thing he could do was to lead the team to play, but leading the team to play was only part of the head coach's job.

How to unfold the next work still requires a lot of thought.

Zhang Yang thought secretly.

There are many tasks of the head coach, a game is not only about commanding, but also about the preliminary work, such as arranging players to do tactical training, or carrying out some routine training, these are the foundations, which will affect the strength of the whole team.

When the game is approaching, it is necessary to arrange the troops and arrange the starting lineup.

All this publicity is a blank slate.

The "starting lineup" is the first big problem Zhang Yang faces, because tomorrow is the first game of the Christmas schedule, and he needs to arrange the starting lineup.

When Zhang Yang came to the first-team training ground, he encountered the problem of the starting lineup.

Frederick turned his face black and handed him the question, "Mr. Coach, tomorrow is the game against Ipswich, we need to confirm the starting line-up and the squad of players involved in the game. ”

He just wants to use his work to make it difficult to publicize.

Everyone in the whole club knows that Zhang Yang's work as a manager is completely blank.

Zhang Yang smiled and asked, "What did you call me just now?" ”

"Mr. Manager."

"Say it again?"

"Mr. Head Coach!!"

"That's a nice name." Zhang Yang put on a very enjoyable look, and suddenly Frederick's face darkened.

Zhang Yang is also taking advantage of the time to turn his brain.

According to the club's 'default' rules, when he became the head coach, Aldous and Frederick were still responsible for a lot of the work in the early stage, and Frederick was embarrassed to talk about the starting lineup.

Zhang Yang coughed lightly and said, "You are an assistant coach." The assistant coach is in charge of assisting the manager to do the work, so you go and draw up five line-ups for the Ipswich Town and I'll look at your advice when I make the final decision. ”

Frederick's face was dark.

This set of words was methodical, and there was no reason to refute it, so he could only turn around and go back to training the players with a depressed mood.

Zhang Yang was also secretly speechless.

Developing a starting line-up for the team is not his forte.

At this moment, a long-hidden system prompt came from my ears, "You have become the head coach of a professional league team, and the system has detected that you need to predict the ability of the professional module." ”

"Select the Career Module Competency, Select the ...... of the Head Coach Career Module Competency"

"The ability to choose - Divination!"

"You have acquired the basic ability of the Master Coach Career Module: Divination, which can be used to predict the good fortune and evil of a given plan."
