The data from the fitness test will be analysed by the team doctor, and the blood test samples will be sent to a regular hospital for testing.

After that, the team's training officially began.

The first step of collective training is the physical fitness test, the first item is recovery training, even those players who have no problems, the physical condition will decline to a certain extent, recovery training becomes very important, according to the rhythm of normal training, the first two weeks of preparation training, physical training will be key, and the intensity will gradually increase.

However, the first day of training is still mainly restorative, allowing the players to run laps, warm up, and have time to do ball training, the main purpose is to let the players adapt to the training, and in addition, to adjust the mentality from the leisure of the holiday.

Many people have 'holiday syndrome'.

When they take a long vacation, their mentality is still in the holidays, just look at the content of some players who are discussing, and they can know the topics related to where to go during the holidays.

That's the mindset problem.

If the mentality can't be adjusted, it will definitely be a big problem, for example, some people will be absent-minded in training, which will easily lead to injuries caused by training intensity.

Injuries don't just happen in the game.

Sometimes in a small training session, a player who doesn't care about it will suddenly get injured.

Zhang Yang cares a lot about preparing for training.

This knowledge still comes from the explanations of Wise, Aldous and others, who have discussed all aspects of preparation, and every day of training has been planned.

The morning passed quickly.

At noon, the players were still relaxed, but in the afternoon it was different.

After the whole team was assembled, Zhang Yang stood up and put on a serious expression, "This is the first day of training, I watched the whole process in the morning, and I found that some people are not serious, they seem to be still on vacation, like often talking about what they did during the vacation, it doesn't make any sense." From now on, I don't want anyone to talk about holidays anymore, you want long vacations, sorry, it's going to have to be another year! ”

Zhang Yang's voice was harsh, which surprised many people, but he knew that when it was time to be tough, he had to be tough.

"The players who played for Millwall last season probably know me very well, I don't usually have anything going on, and it doesn't even matter if you joke about me...... Of course, I just don't show it, I'm going to take it to heart and when it's time to play, I'll take you out of the squad. ”

Quite a few people's faces were blackened.

Even Aldous, Wise and others didn't expect Zhang Yang to say such a sentence.

Is this a public declaration that it will be a 'communiqué for personal vendetta'?

But no one objected.

Everyone pondered in their hearts, publicized his status in the hearts of the club, fans and players, and found that he openly went to 'declare personal vendettas', and no one else could do anything.

Maybe there will be a group of people who will support it?

This group of people will say, "A player who challenges the authority of the head coach deserves not to play!" ”

Zhang Yang just wanted everyone to remember his words, "However, what I emphasize is that everyone must do, such as training requirements and competition requirements." It's a bit early to talk about the competition, but I don't want to see anyone lazy in the next training session, otherwise I'll think you don't value my words and disrespect me, so I'm sorry, whoever you are, don't want to play after the season starts. ”

"There are a lot of new players in the team, I have already introduced them in the morning, there are stars who have played well, there are new players who have played professionally, but everyone has a nod from me. So I believe that the competition will be more fierce in the future, and if you want to appear more in the Premier League, think carefully about my words! ”

"Finally, something very important." Zhang Yang became more serious, "From today onwards, every afternoon, we will have a tactical lesson, which will continue until next weekend, and I believe that by then anyone will remember what to do on the playing field, understand?" ”

The player nodded sporadically.

Zhang Yang asked again: "Do you understand?" Give me a positive one! ”

"Understood."

Although the voice is not very loud, but fortunately, everyone said it, which still made Zhang Yang more satisfied, he hopes that his words can have an effect, only when everyone works hard, the preparation effect will be better, and there is more hope for good results in the new season.

————

The flamboyant words still worked.

After the afternoon training began, the atmosphere in the training ground was much more positive, and laziness became rare, even if it was lazy, it was really impossible to hold on, under the supervision of Wise, Aldous, Frederick, and Bronno Boehly's four pairs of eyes, no one wanted to be a bird to be deliberately lazy.

This is what the flamboyant demands.

Gather to prepare for training, the first few days are very important, because there are many new players in the team to join, they will unconsciously observe the situation in the team, if there is a lazy phenomenon when they come up, they may go to learn, on the contrary, everyone is working together, and no one will go to steal and play tricks.

As long as it can be maintained, the motivation of the team will be raised to a higher level.

The afternoon training lasted only two hours, and then it was time for the tactical class, which everyone was looking forward to, even the veteran players rarely attended.

Zhang Yang also opened a tactical class last season, but it was only a simple explanation of the midfield changes, in order to add a Livermore to the lineup, which is a very simple change, and people with a little brain can understand it.

At this point in time, the tactics class must be very unusual.

But no matter how big the expectations were, no one could have imagined that they would get a copy of the tactical information in their hands.

"You've got a total of 11 tactical profiles, corresponding to 11 positions on the pitch." Zhang Yang stood on the podium and explained, "The first thing you need to do is to be familiar with your position and how to do it. If you think you have figured it out, you can also familiarize yourself with other locations. ”

One by one, the players felt pain in their heads when they looked at the information in their hands.

There were eleven copies of tactical information in total, and except for the goalkeeper's one, which was only a short three sheets of paper, the others were at least ten pages or more, but when they flipped through the contents, they let out a long breath.

The above is not a dense explanation, and the tactical formation diagrams occupy most of the layout.

After everyone glanced at the tactical information in their hands a few times, Zhang Yang spoke, "Now the people with the same information will sit together as a group and study and discuss together." I won't talk about anything specific today, you need to figure something out on your own, and if you have any questions, you can raise your hand and ask questions to the coaches. ”

This is a tactical learning method that Zhang Yang has come up with.

Players in the same position form a group and study the same information in their hands together, such as left back and left back together, right back and right back together, some players have different positions, such as Darren Bent, he can play left forward or right striker, and there is no problem as a center forward alone, then he must understand 'left forward' and ' Right forward's profile, of course, the first step is to understand only one piece of information, and there are others like that, such as Koncheski, he can play left-back or left-back, then you have to understand two pieces of information.

This is the most basic requirement.

For example, some smart players, such as midfielder Jody Morris, it is better to be able to understand the style of play in all positions, so that they can better understand the movement of their teammates, so as to help direct the team on the field.

It wasn't easy.

In fact, even a few assistant coaches, Wise, Frederick, Alders and Boehly didn't understand all the information, they just understood the general style of play, the overall tactical concept, Zhang Yang divided the work, eleven information corresponding to eleven positions, so that the four people remembered and understood, for example, Boehly's tactical ability was blank, he was only responsible for the simplest goalkeeper style of play, Frederick had the best ability, he was responsible for six positions, including left and right back, left and right forward, left and right forward, Aldous is in charge of the attacking part of the midfield, and Wise is a midfielder who has the best understanding of defence, and is responsible for the central midfielders and left and right central defenders.

In this way, a division of labor is carried out to conduct research, and only a few assistant coaches can be competent in coaching.

However, in the following week, they will have to understand more positions as well as play in more positions before they can practice coaching players during tactical training.

From the point of view of the division of labor, the tactics may sound difficult to understand, but it is enough for most players to understand how to play in their position.

For example, the simplest position - goalkeeper.

Heathlop, Graham and Masterson, it only took half an hour to fully understand the tactical content, they are just goalkeepers, and they will only be the initiators when they participate in the attack, and the tactical information is only written, when to pass the ball to teammates, when to kick off the ball, etc., a lot of it is experience, only some tactics-related content, which needs to be written down, such as Hislop has rich experience in the game, and he doesn't need to read more content at all, and he can do very well on the field.

The tactical profile of the centre-backs is also relatively simple, and it may take them only one tactical lesson to figure it out.

When it comes to the complexity of the tactical data, it is the attacking forward position in the middle of the midfield, which is the core position of Jody Morris.

The tactical data of attacking the defender in the middle of the midfield accounts for three-thirds of all the information, and you can know how complicated it is from the perspective of proportion, but the forward defender in the middle of the midfield is also the most important position, shouldering the responsibility of provoking the attack, and is the offensive core of the whole team, and has to cooperate with almost all teammates on the two wings and in the front and back courts.

That is the engine in tactics, and its importance cannot be overstated.

Several assistant coaches have a clear division of labor in the tactical explanation, and Aldous is in charge of the middle of the midfield, and even then he has no less work than Frederick.
