The fifteenth round of the league is a round that the media and fans are very concerned about, because Derby County's opponent is Norwich.

In fact, this was supposed to be the sixth round of the league, but because there was only one day between the League Cup and the league, at the beginning of the season, the FA adjusted the game to Derby County and Crewe, and no one cared about the time adjustment of this game at that time, because Derby County itself is not a team that has attracted attention, and Norwich is not a particularly big favorite before the game, everyone thinks Norwich has a chance to be promoted, but it is not said that the top two results will definitely be promoted, and the third to sixth places in the league can still participate in the promotion play-offs.

But when this 'make-up' game approached, everyone realized that it had become a strong conversation between the second and first in the league.

So a lot of people paid attention to the game.

Last season, Derby County did not play against Norwich, for Norwich's understanding, Wansheng can be said to be a blank, he only knows that this team is very strong, constantly winning in the league, and has become Derby's biggest competitor, but what is the specific strength, what is the recent situation, he is not clear.

After playing against Crewe, Wan Sheng began to study his opponents, he did not have a dedicated scout to observe the opponents, and could only study them by watching videos by himself, but he also believed more in what he saw.

This Norwich team does have a lot of good players.

For example, Hengeby, who was frantically reported in the summer, is their best 'striker killer', the 29-year-old player, who has been playing for Manchester City before, but with Manchester City's acquisition of French striker Anelka and England national team goalscorer Fowler, this made Hengeby lose the opportunity to play again, so in February last season, Hengeby was loaned to Nottingham Forest, and scored seven goals for Nottingham Forest at the end of the season, one of which was also a goal in the promotion play-offs, but unfortunately failed to be promoted. Financially, Nottingham Forest could not afford to buy Hengebee, who had to return to Manchester City.

Because he was not eligible to fight for a place in the main team at Manchester City, Hengeby decided to transfer immediately after returning to Manchester City.

A number of football clubs beckoned to Hengerby, but in the end Hengerby opted to go on loan to Norwich City first, and after joining Norwich, Hengerby scored for Norwich City in three consecutive games and squeezed out Cahill to be voted the best player in the first division in September.

The media reported on Hengeby not only because he was good, but also because Norwich had already confirmed that he was on loan at the end of his term. Officially bought out Hangerby.

Hengerby is just one of Norwich's players, in fact, there are many players like Huntby in Norwich, such as Peter Croche, Mark Revos, Paul McWige, etc., these are all players who are in the prime of their careers, aged 25-3o, and very strong in League One.

Derbyshire, by contrast, is too 'young'.

'Maybe in two years' time, Norwich won't be a match for Derby. But Derby County are still too immature, and the players they rely on are too young," the mass media said of the game.

In fact, in the eyes of most people, Derby County is still in the 'dark horse' stage. They are not really a strong team, but they have played well because of their good performance.

They are still too immature in general.

Whether it is the striker, midfielder or defender, occupy the core position of the main force. There are a lot of young people who are just over 20 years old, and these young people may perform well in the dominant game. However, it will be difficult for Derby County to take advantage of Norwich City, and when the situation becomes a disadvantage, the young man's appearance will not necessarily be stable.

In short, Derby County is still far from a 'mature' team like Norwich, and this game is an away game, and it is a little too difficult to beat Norwich.

"After this game, the league number one will change its name!" Some media commentators say so.

There are many supporters.

However, Wansheng doesn't think so.

He watched the footage of Norwich's game for two days and learned a lot about their tactical characteristics and the characteristics of each player.

He also admitted that some of the things the media said were very correct, such as describing Norwich as 'mature', yes, this team is indeed very mature, and their technical and tactical characteristics are also quite mature, perhaps because of this, they have achieved an unbeaten record of 11 wins and 3 draws in 14 rounds.

Norwich's style of play is mature, playing pure 'English style' football, and the specific play they rely on is 'long pass rushing' and 'side bottoming', and at the same time, the tactical style is aggressive, and the lineup is also very fixed, and it will not change lightly, that is to say, the cooperation between their players is still quite tacit.

However, the tactical characteristics of this 'English style' are also obvious when mapped to Norwich.

Offensively, their possession ability is relatively weak, and their ability to grasp opportunities in front of goal is not strong; Defensively, the ability to break through the individual defense is relatively poor, the ability to defend the ball is slightly insufficient, there are a lot of mistakes between the cooperation, and the defensive formation is not very good.

Finding a way to deal with these weaknesses and making small adjustments to your tactics seemed to be the best way to deal with the game, but Wan Sheng didn't do that.

He believed that the original tactics would be enough.

He doesn't need to make any bigger changes to his tactics, he just needs to push his players to run aggressively.

Tactically speaking, his tactics were already a notch above Norwich's 'pure England'.

In terms of details, in terms of offense, fast attacking football, the team's gradual skillful coordination, and the individual ability of the frontcourt players, Derby County is no worse than Norwich in these aspects; Defensively, it will not be easy for Norwich to press the game unless they play purely defensive counter-attack, otherwise they want to rely on 'English-style' play to suppress Derby unless half of the Derby players are out of shape.

That requires God forbid, not tactical planning.

So Wan Sheng is not too worried about the game, even away from home, he is more worried about the mental state of the players

In fact, a lot of Derby players think the same way.

They didn't think about the tactical comparison of the two teams, the comparison of strength or anything, what they saw was one thing - they were first in the league and Norwich were second in the league. It's still one point less than them, so why are they weaker than Norwich?

That's why the league rankings are good!

So when a lot of people think that Derby County will be difficult to beat Norwich, the Derby team is relaxed, they don't care what the outside world says, they have their ideas - we are the first in the league, what is there to fear?

Before the first game of the season, Wan Sheng said that their goal for the new season was to win the league title, and few people believed it at the time, and they thought the coach was cheering them on - but that was not very successful.

But now they all believe it.

They really sit at the top of the league. And they have been sitting for several rounds, and it is really not easy for Derby County to be the top of the league, and now they feel that Wansheng's 'championship goal' is not unattainable - as long as they can sit down, they will definitely be the league champions.

With the support of this idea, everyone seems to be relaxed in training, and the training atmosphere of the whole team is very lively.

It's good to be relaxed before the war, but it's not good to be too relaxed.

Diamares noticed the attitude of the players, but he also felt that it was time for the players to relax for a while. After all, you can't always train hard, and it's good to relax once in a while, so when leading the team to train, he turns a blind eye when he sees the players being lazy.

But Wansheng doesn't think it's a good thing.

When he has several players. When the personal training task is not completed, it is immediately realized that this is a major matter that must be taken seriously.

All afternoon that day, he stood on the sidelines, coldly watching everyone train.

The players are under the watchful eye of Wan Sheng. None of them dared to be lazy, they were constantly worried, and many people were wondering why the coach was 'angry'. Yes, it was like being angry. No one could have guessed, but everyone's training was much more serious, and they didn't want to be grabbed by Wan Sheng and taken over to talk alone.

No one made a bird, everyone kept trying.

This is how the day's training ended, and when the training was over, Wan Sheng called everyone together, looked at them coldly, and asked, "Do you know how many teams there are in League One?" ”

Everyone looked at each other.

It was Bolton-Reiter who raised his hand and whispered, "Twenty-four." ”

"Good!" Wan Sheng nodded, "It seems that you know how many teams there are in League One, then you must also know how many league rounds we have to play in a season, twenty-four minus one, multiplied by two, yes, forty-six games, that's forty-six games!" How many league games have we played now? Fourteen! ”

"We haven't even played a third of the game yet!"

"But look at the way you guys look, do you think we've won the league!? No! Far from it! Many of you have been playing in League One all year round and you should know how competitive League One can be. How many teams started the season well, but at the end of the season they had to fight to avoid relegation? Do you want Derby County to be one of them? ”

Wan Sheng looked at everyone solemnly, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.

The players were very frightened to listen, they finally knew why the coach was angry, it turned out that the training was still not serious, they all lowered their heads, especially those who did not complete the individual training tasks, and their heads were even lowered, including Bolton Reiter.

Wan Sheng glanced at Leiter, and finally said lightly, "If I don't take your training seriously, I will supervise your training with Gail every day." ”

After Wan Sheng finished speaking, he announced the disbandment.

But almost no one is thinking about such a scene - every day in training, Wan Sheng will stand on the sidelines, looking at them coldly, under such a gaze, they don't even dare to chat, can only bored into training.

It's like hell!

Thinking of this, their eyes softened a lot when they looked at Diamares, and Diamares led the team to train very strictly, but after all, it was not so majestic, and the training atmosphere was still very active.

And Wan Sheng, no, Boss, seems to be getting more and more 'like' like a real head coach-
