Chapter 26: Let's Talk
Chapter 26 talks
No matter what the manager thinks, anyway, since it is the manager's order, the players naturally have only the obligation to do it, which is the performance of every normal team.
Simon Grayson hasn't lost control of his team yet, and it's only natural that his team will go all out to achieve the manager's wishes.
Wang Tiezhu is even more so, Simon Grayson can be regarded as a grace to him, he is grateful to his head coach, and naturally he has to go all out to complete every instruction of the head coach.
But when Wang Tiezhu came to play, he found that things were completely different from what he imagined, as if he had already known that Leeds United's No. 29 was a tough bone to gnaw although he was young, and Nottingham Forest's attacks all deliberately bypassed the middle of Wang Tiezhu's guard, and every attack was launched from the side, even if he still had to hit the ball back to the middle in the end, he would definitely bypass Wang Tiezhu, even if the success rate of their attack was really low.
After discovering this, Simon Grayson couldn't help but laugh off the court: This McLaren is a bit interesting, he is very arrogant, but he is so cautious in the game, and even too cautious, for the sake of a Shaq, he actually changed his team's offensive tactics, this idea is really ...... It's amazing! However, Shaq has only played two games, does he have such a great deterrent!?
Simon Grayson naturally wouldn't have thought that although Wang Tiezhu is not famous at the moment, but in the eyes of every opponent who encounters Leeds United, this eighteen-year-old No. 29 Zach Thompson is indeed an obstacle that is difficult to surpass, at least among the current Championship players, there are really few people who can suppress him steadily, a midfielder who can reverse the poor defensive situation of the "Young Guards" by himself, even if he is young, it is worth paying attention to.
Because of the need to bypass Wang Tiezhu, Nottingham Forest's attack is indeed unable to play, but they have done a good job in defense, and basically did not give Leeds United, who are playing at home, any chance.
Forty-five minutes of the first half passed quickly, and the two sides exchanged blanks and drew 0:0!
"Steve McClaren was arrogant before the game, but when it came to the game his team was very cautious and seeing how well they defended, I really don't see this as a team with ambition to win on the road. The first half of the game is over, the score is still 0-0, although our young man Shaq is very average in terms of technical statistics, only 6 passes, 1 tackle and 1 header, but I believe that anyone who has watched this game can feel the pressure he puts on the opponent on the field...... Hey? Let's see who this is! ”
A man suddenly appeared on the big screen of the Elland Road Stadium, with a thin face and focused eyes, this man seemed to give people a sense of calm and tenacity.
"Ahh It's Rogers! Brendan Rogers! Brendan Rodgers, who led the team to the Super League just after taking charge of Swansea last season! ”
Brendan Rodgers is only 38 years old now, his playing days are a bit miserable, it can be said that it is over before the real beginning, he retired early due to injury at the age of 20, and then worked as a youth team coach for Reading, in 2004 he was invited by Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho to join his coaching team, and then became the head coach of Chelsea's development team, and was hired by Swansea City in July 2010. In his first season in charge, he led the team to promotion to the English Premier League and is now regarded as one of the most promising young managers in English football.
But why didn't Rodgers take his Swansea to the Premier League and head to Elland Road to watch a Championship game?
"Rogers is here, what is he here for? I think he must have taken a fancy to one of our Leeds United or Nottingham Forest players! ”
Brendan Rodgers, who was discovered, did not hide it, but smiled and waved in the direction of the camera, he was indeed here today to inspect a player, this person is not a famous player, but just emerging now...... Wang Tiezhu!
Swansea, who just left the English Championship last season to become a super team, still know that there will be a lot of good seedlings in the Championship, and those super teams like to loan players to the Championship team, and the other is that each team can occasionally develop a good player.
Therefore, when Wang Tiezhu started playing for Leeds United, Swansea, who never took his eyes off the Championship, spotted him, and only two games later, Brendan Rodgers, the manager of Swansea, came to inspect him personally.
At this time, Rodgers was really glad that he came to watch the game in person, otherwise if he only looked at Wang Tiezhu's game statistics, he would probably easily make a misjudgment, that is, Wang Tiezhu was just a short-lived meteor, and he was beaten back to his original form after two games.
But now, Rodgers believes that he has definitely found a dominant midfielder, who can force the opponent to deliberately avoid himself when attacking, such a defensive player can no longer be described as qualified, and Wang Tiezhu's performance is good enough.
After the game entered the second half, Wang Tiezhu's performance changed a little, and according to Simon Grayson's instructions, he began to consciously expand the scope of his activities, which made Nottingham Forest more uncomfortable when attacking.
On 52 minutes, Beccio scored another goal.
After Leeds United took the lead, Nottingham Forest was very crazy, and even they started to attack regardless of it, and they didn't think about bypassing Wang Tiezhu, but the result was that Wang Tiezhu strangled Nottingham Forest's counterattack momentum with 2 header interceptions and 1 tackle.
When he saw this, Brendan Rogers had already given an A+ score to his subject in his mind, and this No. 29 Zach Thompson was indeed an object to watch, and even if the price was not expensive, he should be bought immediately.
On the pitch, after Nottingham Forest's counterattack was contained, Leeds United took the opportunity to receive a cross from Pugh from the left through Snodgrass and cushioned the ball into the Nottingham Forest goal with the arch of his foot five meters in front of goal...... 2:0!
The game is like this, the suspense of victory and defeat is gone, even if Nottingham Forest plays a desperate counterattack, they can only watch the time pass little by little, their previous smooth ground attack with this game has not been able to play from beginning to end, because they have bypassed Wang Tiezhu at the same time, but also narrowed their own space for activities, plus now Leeds United's defense has become more and more tacit, they naturally have no good opportunities.
In the final 91 minutes, Nottingham Forest were awarded a penalty and their main centre-forward Bastok converted the spot-kick, but it could no longer change the outcome of the game.
After the whole game, Wang Tiezhu's statistics are not good at all, only 9 passes, 2 steals, 4 headers and a long-range shot, but everyone who has watched this game believes that the Shaq cultivated by the "Young Guard" will definitely become a defensive midfield star who will surprise the world, because he already has a lot of deterrent power now.
After beating Nottingham Forest 2-1 at home, Leeds United won four consecutive 2-1 wins with Wang Tiezhu's arrival, and they are also climbing up the standings, and now they are in tenth place, only five points away from Portsmouth and Middlesbrough, who are tied for first place.
Simon Grayson was happy to see that the team's disadvantage had been reversed, but he was really a little unhappy, because rumours had begun to circulate that Swansea were interested in buying Wang Tiezhu from him, and this rumour, combined with Brendan Rodgers' photos at Elland Road, was even more convincing.
What makes Simon Grayson most uncomfortable is that this news is not just rumors, Swansea City did officially make an offer to Leeds United to buy Wang Tiezhu, and 1.5 million pounds is the price they put on Wang Tiezhu, a newcomer who has only played three professional games.
After noticing the meager annual salary in Wang Tiezhu's contract, Simon Grayson specifically approached Ken Bates, the chairman of the team, who can be kept with an annual salary of 24,000 pounds!?
However, the reply given by the stingy Ken Bates was to observe again, he wanted to see Wang Tiezhu's next performance, and then consider what kind of salary Wang Tiezhu should give.
For Ken Bates, Simon Grayson really has no choice, but fortunately, Wang Tiezhu's performance is really powerful, in the next Leeds United home 2:1 defeat Ipswich Town, Wang Tiezhu handed in a perfect answer after he entered the first team, 36 passes, 4 tackles, 4 headers, 1 interception, 1 shot.
With this answer sheet, Simon Grayson took all the game statistics of Wang Tiezhu again, and rushed to Ken Bates's office in a murderous manner, and after half an hour, he left the office of Chairman Slamming with a satisfied smile, and after returning to his office, he found Wang Tiezhu: "Hey, Shaq, your recent performance has been fantastic, the team has achieved a four-game winning streak because of your existence, so, Shaq, now the team wants to sign a new contract with you, if you have an agent, Just let him talk to me! ”
Yes!?
That's a raise!?
After listening to Simon Grayson's words, Wang Tiezhu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the goal he was striving for had been completed in just half a month!
