Millwall's team has been jet lag since they moved into the hotel, jet lag is an uncomfortable thing, it is not easy to easily reverse it, they have 24 hours of rest, including a whole day and night, but most of the players spend a while sleeping and waking up.

People who have experienced alternating day shifts and night shifts should have feelings, refreshed for a day, and slept at night, but because they have to work shifts, they must rest as much as possible, so that the second '12 hours' becomes spiritual, it is very difficult to do, often when it is time to sleep, most of the forced sleep is only a short period of confusion, it is difficult to continue to sleep for a long time.

The next morning, before the sun had risen, more than half of the players had already gotten up and walked around the hotel.

The two floors of this hotel are completely occupied by Millwall.

In order to reduce trouble, the accompanying security personnel kept an eye on the staircase on the first floor to prevent reporters and fans from entering at will, but in the hall on the first floor, there were several reporters squatting for a long time, and many fans were standing near the hotel, not to mention in front of the door, reporters and fans could be seen everywhere.

Zhang Yang does not allow players to walk out of the hotel gate without permission, because it will bring a lot of trouble, but it is normal to be interviewed, in the morning, a few players go to the gym on the first floor to relax, and there are reporters to follow the interview halfway.

In addition to the players, other people are interviewed more often because they have more access to journalists.

The club manager Ebenezer has been busy, and while the players are resting, Ebenezer, Wilkinson and some other managers have been in contact with the official representatives of SZ's club and SZ, and it was a jet-lagged day, and the two only slept for a short time on the plane, and there was no other time to rest.

In the afternoon, they also went to meet with several Chinese sponsor managers to discuss the sponsorship of the new season, and held a press conference and gave exclusive interviews to major Chinese media in the middle.

The assistant coaches didn't have much time to rest, they had to keep an eye on the players, and they had to arrange the next morning's practice, and Pierce and Frederick went around the field where the commercial game was going to be played.

In addition to all the players, it seems that there is an idler.

Zhang Yang can not be idle.

Everyone else has things to be busy, Zhang Yang was also very busy, such as the official representative of SZ, the owner of the SZ club, and the Chinese sponsors of Millwall, all asked to see Zhang Yang, in their opinion, Millwall's most attractive thing is Zhang Yang, because Zhang Yang is a Chinese, Millwall won more championships, and it has nothing to do with China, in addition, even if Millwall won the treble, it is only a rising club, and the top European giants cannot be compared at all.

It's actually quite easy to compare.

At the same time, Barcelona is also carrying out the 'China Tour', Barcelona is officially invited by China, nominally 'invited' to visit China, the sponsor is FAW People-Ao-Di, and the name of the event is "Ao-Di 2007 Barcelona China Tour", which is considered to be one of the 2007 "Chinese and Western Culture Year" projects, and is also a gift for the first anniversary of the countdown to the 2008 Capital Olympic Games.

The official statement is that "by holding the "2007 Barcelona China Tour" event, the Olympic sportsmanship of "New BJ, New Olympics" will be promoted, and the style of the two cities of modern BJ and Barcelona will be displayed, which will also play a positive role in promoting the football level of BJ City." ”

When you crown this series of titles, you can see the weight of Barcelona.

Millwall is just a 'trip to China', and a few 'invitations' were added before the event, but in fact, the club itself contacted, that is, perhaps the fame of the fanfare is greater, and it will be expected by the fans.

There are no big sponsors in the whole process, it is a domestic economic company, and it is operated by several small sponsors.

These have nothing to do with Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang turned down all the invitations of the day and devoted himself to the training schedule, he needed to plan the team's training progress in detail, including the warm-up to adjust the state, including the training of new tactics, and the training plan of individual players.

This last point is important.

Zhang Yang is hesitant to use 'Speech Spirit', which has also increased by one follower after the team's good results last season.

This is the ability to produce top superstars, and it must be used on the cutting edge.

There are not many players in the Millwall team who can use 'Verbal Bewitchment', and they all have to trust their old players.

The higher the 'trust' of the veteran players, the best use of abilities.

There are also divisions for veteran players.

Some players who are old have no need to improve, because the effect will not be too good, and the duration will be very short, and players such as Jody Morris, Darren Ward, and Konchesky will be directly excluded.

Among the other players to choose from, Livermore, Simpson, and Braniff all already have the ability bonus of 'Verbal Bewitchment', and there are only three players left to choose from--

Curtis Weston, Jamie Vardy, and Graham Stark.

Weston and Jamie Valdy are both young, Graham is older, only 26 years old, and the goalkeeper position can be played for a longer time, and Graham is still worthy of development.

Zhang Yang hesitated among the three.

According to the 'fairness principle', Weston should be trained the most, as early as when he was an assistant coach, he met Weston, and Weston has always had a good relationship, Weston is also very loyal to the team, there was a chance to leave to other clubs to become the main team, he is still willing to play as a substitute in the team.

Graham is also good, he is the main goalkeeper who has been promoted, and the position of the goalkeeper is also very important, if Graham is trained, it will definitely make the goal more stable.

But Zhang Yang favored Jamie Vardy.

First, Vardy is the most worthy of training, he is still very young, his ability has reached a world-class level, as long as he puts on the 'words and spirits', he will definitely be able to grow into the top striker, I dare not say that he can surpass all his predecessors, but his ability is certainly not bad.

Second, Vardy was brought to Millwall by Zhang Yang, who brought him to Millwall when he was still playing for a nine-tier team and had to rely on odd jobs to make ends meet.

It's a gratitude.

Jamie Valdy will remember that he must have been the player he trusted the most.

Weston and Graham are different.

Graham was Millwall's main goalkeeper before, but only played as a substitute for a while because of promotion to the Premier League, and once considered leaving.

Weston, on the other hand, has been on the bench.

Weston's ability has improved, but if he doesn't reach the top level, he can't be a regular on the team.

If he uses his ability on Weston, he can probably become a main player, but at most he is a Simpson-level star, not at the top level.

Zhang Yang thought carefully for a long time, and finally 'selfishness' prevailed over 'fairness', because Vardy trusted himself more, and Vardy's development prospects were broad, so he still chose Vardy.

Zhang Yang felt a little guilty about Weston and Graham, but it didn't matter if he thought about it carefully, if he was another coach, he would not be able to improve the players at all, and in addition, they would not know that they had the ability to improve the players.

So, it doesn't matter.

Then another annoyance arose, what ability would be attached to Vardy that would give him the greatest improvement?

Dribbling ability?

A striker's ability to increase his dribbling ability doesn't seem to have much effect, and under the dense defense of the penalty area, no matter how good the dribbling is, it can't be played at all.

Velocity?

Jamie Vardy's pace was already fast.

Shot?

Jamie Vardy's shot was quite good, otherwise he would not have been the main striker.

Physically strong?

It seems like a train of thought, but the 'demagogy' probably doesn't have much effect, and Jamie Vardy is a flexible striker who makes him incredibly strong and maybe affects his flexibility.

Some of the gains outweigh the losses.

Zhang Yang thought about it again and again, worked his brain cells, and found that it is not easy to cultivate top stars, players with top qualifications are already top stars, and their abilities in all aspects are already very prominent, and it is not of much significance to give a goal.

Zhang Yang has a number of stars in his mind, such as C-Ronaldo, Kaka, and the 'alien' Ronaldo, they are all all-round stars, and some aspects are also impressive, but to really talk about it, their development route is not suitable for Vardy, he grew up in the football environment of England, and his comprehensive foot skills are not so good.

So England players can't be top stars?

Of course not.

Many famous English stars rarely rely on pure technology, most of them rely on body and data, and the English football style is more direct, the technique is not so fancy, but it can play quite gorgeous data.

This is a major feature.

Zhang Yang thought about it carefully and thought about it, and the names of two players appeared in his mind.

One is Josh Simpson.

Josh Simpson has a potential, called 'Olfactory Ability in front of the goal', and it is also the first time Zhang Yang has seen that there are some 'fantasy colors' ability, and the 'Olfactory Ability in front of the door' is to capture opportunities, which is more sensitive than others, just like having a sixth sense in front of the goal, when the opportunity is coming, it may sense where it appears, and then run over to look for opportunities.

Simpson's reliance on 'nose in front of goal' and his constant scoring of follow-up shots is proof of this.

Last season, Simpson's overall performance was average, not so outstanding, and the number of appearances among the main players was still relatively small, but he scored a lot of goals, only worse than Bent and Vardy, ranking third in the team.

That's where the 'smell at the door' comes in.

The other player is the departing Darren Bent, Darren Bent has a very outstanding ability, that is, the ability to 'shoot at any position and any action', which is given by the system as 'Sensitive Shooting Ability'.

Darren Bent officially relied on this ability to continue to score goals, and the forward performance was quite dazzling.

This was the foundation of Darren Bent's fame.

When it comes to individual ability, Bent's height is not up to the level of a center, his body is not strong, his speed is not too fast among strikers, and his skills are not very exquisite, but his shooting ability is outstanding, and it is not easy to find opportunities just by relying on the latter, and it is even more difficult to score more goals than others.

'Sharp shooting' is what Darren Bent relies on to excel.

The player's potential display changes according to the changes in physical and psychological conditions, abilities, and environments, and Zhang Yang also used 'potential recognition' to see a 'sensitive shooting ability' and wrote it down directly.

In retrospect, a closer look shows that 'Keen Shots' is more suited to Vardy than 'Smells in front of goal'.

'Nose in front of goal', almost equivalent to the development of the sixth sense, but having a sense of smell in front of the goal, may not be able to use it, Vardy is the first striker, he will be closely marked by the opponent, whether there is the ball at his feet or not, there will definitely be defenders around him, even if he uses the 'sixth sense' to catch the opportunity, but when the opportunity comes, he still has to face the defense.

'Sharp shooting ability' is very helpful for the strikers.

A lot of times, chances are fleeting, the strikers have to face the defense, they don't have time to adjust their movements, they have a chance to score if they can shoot, and if they can't finish the shot, the chance is gone.

'Sensitive Shooting Ability', which allows players to shoot with a variety of movements, will also greatly increase their ability to threaten.

Darren Bent can rely on his 'sensitive shooting ability' to become the top scorer in the Premier League and the Champions League, and he is better than him, and Vardy, who has a lot of growth in the future, has 'sensitive shooting ability', what kind of performance will he have?

Zhang Yang began to look forward to it.
