Chapter 557: Second System Mission

In the evening, the British media reported on the Community Shield, and players such as Braniff, Pire, and Simpson who performed well in the game were praised one by one.

In some media reports, they talked about Millwall's style of play, and the two goals were analyzed, and 'wingers inserted' became a hot topic, and many media felt that they had 'seen through Millwall's style of play'.

They are smug about it.

A lot of media reported on it, because in an interview after the game, Grant also emphasized, "We should guard the wings, they are very good at cutting in wingers." ”

Chelsea have been criticised.

Among the players who appeared in Chelsea, such as Shepchenko, Pizarro, Kalou and other players, there was almost no performance at all, and the Times scored the players, Shepchenko got the lowest five points, Kalou was 5.5 points, and Pizarro who came off the bench scored six points, barely a passing level, but the "Times" commented on the analysis and said the reason, "Pizarro has just joined Chelsea, and he is a substitute, and the game time is short, there is no outstanding performance and no mistakes." ”

Chelsea's defence was scored highly.

John Terry, Carvalho and Mikel all had seven points and were the highest scorers in the Chelsea squad, with the rest of the players hovering between 6.5 and 6.

Chelsea's defense is recognized, which means that Millwall's attack is recognized, because Millwall scored two goals, and the Times believes that Chelsea is not to blame for the goal, but that Millwall has performed too well.

'Both goals were deftly linked, with Millwall's full-backs cutting in and twice finding the Chelsea goal, but don't ignore the performances that preceded the shots, whether it was Braniff, Sneijder or striker Jamie Vardy.

It was also because both goals were scored by full-backs that Chelsea's two full-backs, Ashley Cole and Bridge, were criticised for not doing their job.

Actually, the full-backs couldn't really be blamed for the goal.

Before the first goal, Chelsea needed Bridge's intervention and he didn't have time to retreat and kept up with Pire.

In the second goal, Millwall kept switching left and right, and when Braniff passed Mikel's pass, Ashley Cole was helping to defend Konchesky, and he couldn't defend two players, and Simpsons rushed up, and he couldn't keep up.

It's also a problem with Chelsea's defensive system.

Half of Chelsea's defence is 'zone defence', and when an opposition player runs to other positions, the player doesn't follow.

For example, Simpson enters the penalty area, and Carvalho and John Terry have to be defended, or other retreating midfielders, and if Ashley Cole follows him, Chelsea's left side will be empty.

That's definitely not going to happen.

The speech of the post-match interview also appeared in the media page, the BBC used a special feature to make a report, other media followed suit, and some even put it on the front page.

The flamboyant 'modest and low-key' has added a lot of positive comments to the report.

However, some media analysts reminded, "In the previous two seasons, Zhang Yang said this, I remember that two years ago, Zhang Yang's statement was 'work hard to relegate', and Millwall won the league championship." ”

"Other teams can't be negligent because of Zhang Yang's words, the Chinese are humble, they have a hundred abilities, but only say eighty words, that is a very peculiar etiquette, so Zhang Yang said that the goal is to enter the final four, maybe Millwall's goal is to win the league championship!"

Some media also believed, "To a certain extent, what Zhang Yang said also makes sense, after all, Millwall has won two championships, and it is too difficult to win three championships in a row, and the departure of Bent in the summer is a major blow to Millwall, but I believe they still have the strength to compete for the top four." ”

While the British press was talking, Millwall received the trophy and after a brief celebration at the new Wembley Stadium, the team took the bus back to the club.

On the road, Zhang Yang stood on the bus, and the player's statement and the interview were completely different concepts, "We won the game and won the first championship, which is very happy." But as we all know, the new season has just begun. ”

"Last season, last season, we were league winners, so we have to fight for the title this season! I'm not putting pressure on you, but now we can only be stronger than we were last season. So the championship is the only goal, and the championship competition starts from the first round of the league! ”

"Now, everyone has to be serious and have to take action!"

“……”

Zhang Yang made a declaration to compete for the championship.

It's a rarity.

Last season, last season, Zhang Yang never said specific goals to the players at the beginning of the season, in order not to put pressure on the players.

Now it's different.

After successfully 'winning' the treble, Millwall will have to worry about 'losing momentum', and if they continue to keep a low profile, the players may feel that the team is only aiming for the last four.

Final four?

That's so easy!

When teams easily finish in the top four, players can lose motivation to keep going.

So now before the league starts, you have to tell them loudly that the team's goal is to win the league, not the top four, the top six, etc., and let them work hard from the first game, only by doing this, can we ensure that the team can move forward in unison, and there will not be a situation where most players have no fighting spirit and lag behind.

Zhang Yang is very serious about this, and he also shows a positive attitude.

On the night of the championship, the players simply celebrated and went back to rest, after all, it was just a game in London, and it was almost the same as a league game, the only thing was to have a small championship title.

Zhang Yang slept in the head coach's office.

The club's staff, other assistant coaches and players who know him all admire the spirit of his work, thinking that he stays up late to plan tactics, training and other tasks.

Actually, there is a slight deviation.

Zhang Yang was carefully looking at the schedule, and even pasted the form on the wall, each game was marked with various colors, he looked carefully and looked at it, and also looked for the recent situation of those 'difficult' opponents.

This is indeed a serious attitude towards work.

Zhang Yang is not for any championship, the championship is a season's thing, it is impossible to work in one night to succeed, he received the task released by the system-

"You've become a respectable manager."

"As a respected manager, you need to continue to prove your coaching ability to achieve the advanced competence of the managerial career module."

"Your goal is to lead the team to break the unbeaten league record and set a new unbeaten league record! Lead the team to achieve objectives and activate high-level abilities that earn the Head Coach Career Module. ”

“……”

This is the second time Zhang Yang has received a system task.

The last time I was tasked was two years ago, when I was tasked with 'proving what it takes to be a manager' in order to gain the talent for the managerial career module.

Now it's 'Prove Coaching Ability, a high-level ability that unlocks the Head Coach Career Module.

It's a boost.

The task of opening high-level abilities is also not easy to complete, Zhang Yang carefully studied and found that he still didn't understand a little, the so-called 'creating a new league unbeaten record' refers to the Premier League, the five major leagues, or the entire European League?

Or is it the 'World League'?

According to Zhang Yang's understanding of the system, the task should not be so easy, after all, it is the 'high-level ability' that is opened, and there must be a certain degree of difficulty, and he tends to be the 'five major leagues'.

The unbeaten Premier League record is held by Arsenal, who are unbeaten in 49 games in the 2000-2004 and 2003-2004 seasons.

Longer than the Premier League's unbeaten streak are the Bundesliga and Serie A, with Serie A AC Milan setting the longest record at 58 games.

Zhang Yang leans towards the 'Premier League' or the 'Big Five'.

One is the difficulty of the problem, 49 games unbeaten is not difficult to achieve, because Millwall won last season unbeaten, itself has 38 games unbeaten, the new season 10 games unbeaten in a row, almost equal Arsenal's record, to equal AC Milan's record, need to remain unbeaten in 20 games.

It is inconceivable that the scope covers the whole of Europe.

For example, some of the dominant teams in the small national leagues, it is very easy to reach 70 or 80 games without defeat, and it is impossible to catch up with that kind of record this season.

The fact that the mission appears before the start of the season proves that the season can be completed, not the record of Arsenal, but the record of AC Milan.

System tasks are a must-have!

Only by completing the system task can you obtain the high-level ability of the head coach's career module, Zhang Yang is still looking forward to the new ability, the word 'high-level' explains the problem, it must be a pretty good ability.

So Zhang Yang was also motivated, and he couldn't bear it that night, and began to carefully study Millwall's schedule to understand the previous games and which teams to play against.

If it's twenty games, it's definitely all the opponents.

However, the ranking of opponents is also important, and it is now important to look at which difficult games are concentrated and which periods are a little easier to play, which can help the team adjust to their form at the right time.

Zhang Yang suddenly felt nervous.

If he was to fight for the league title, he wouldn't be so nervous, because an occasional mistake would not have much impact on the results of the whole season.

Undefeated is different!

An undefeated game does not allow a single mistake, every game must be played well, and the opponent must not be given any chance.

This is true for twenty games in a row...... Although the team won the championship undefeated last season, Zhang Yang was not sure that he could not make mistakes every game, which was really difficult to complete.

It's really harder to set an unbeaten record than to win the championship.

On 13 August, the first round of the Premier League kicked off, with Manchester United hosting Reading in the opening game.

This game is highly anticipated.

Many people want to see the current state of Manchester United, because this Manchester United team is considered the most likely to win the title and is also considered the 'strongest Manchester United of the new century'.

In the end, Manchester United let everyone down, and they didn't get the season off to a good start.

Manager Alex Ferguson may have regretted not including Carlos Tevez on the bench because United had more than 20 shots on goal against the opposition's 901 formation, overwhelmingly dominant, but failed to score a single goal.

It was down to Rooney getting injured during the game.

After Rooney's injury, Ferguson even asked O'Shea to play a cameo role as a center forward, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

After the game, the media analysis said, "Manchester United in the absence of a fixed center forward, there are not many ways to break the dense defense, one of which is that the forward line lacks the ability to strike in the air, blindly through the ground penetration, even if sometimes crosses to the penalty area, or mainly through the ground penetration to find a way to shoot." ”

'The stats from Wayne Rooney's header since joining United show that Rooney is not a striker who is used to heading goals. With Saha and Solskjaer often injured, Manchester United lack the ability to attack in the air in the face of retreating defensive teams, many teams will play an iron bucket when visiting Old Trafford, hoping to keep the draw, even if Tevez is integrated into Manchester United, he is also a player who is used to walking down the three lanes, so breaking the dense defense has to become a subject for Ferguson to study. ”

On the flip side, Reading played very successfully defensively.

After the game, the media praised the head coach Koper, believing that the team's excellent defensive performance is inseparable from his arrangement, while marking people, he arranged the original captain Muti in the position of left wingback, and constructed his own defensive system, and it is indeed quite difficult to make such a bold change in his own defensive system.

Reading got a point and the goal was achieved.

Manchester United's failure to get the season off to a good start was not the worst news, and after further post-match examinations, Rooney's injury was confirmed to be a fractured left foot, so Rooney will be out of action for two months.

In the post-match press conference, Ferguson looked helpless, "We will be without Rooney for two months, and it is conservative to say that we need to rest Rooney for at least two months, but in fact I still hope that he will come back soon." ”

Originally, Ferguson also hoped to outline Tevez and Rooney as a team, work together for Manchester United, and build the most gorgeous forward line in the Premier League together, but Rooney's unexpected injury must have disrupted the plan.

Before Millwall's first game, he heard the good news of Manchester United's draw and the injury of the main striker, Zhang Yang almost clapped his hands in celebration, of course, he will not be so ungraceful, just maintain an inherent light smile, and when faced with questions from the media, he said, "It's a pity, Mr. Jazz's luck doesn't seem to be good." ”

Zhang Yang seems to be sympathetic, but Manchester United's supporting media can all read from the expressions on their faces.

That's schadenfreude!

As a result, Manchester United's supporting media also cursed Millwall for not winning.
