The second round of the match against Sporting Lisbon was only two days apart from the 37th round of the Premier League, so after the home win over Sporting Lisbon, Derby County had no time to celebrate, and even though the players were excited to reach the final, Wan Sheng disbanded the team early and let everyone go back to rest.

The schedule is too tight and the rest time is especially important for the team.

In the past, Derby County had begun to prepare for the league match with Manchester United, in fact, there was nothing to prepare, nothing more than some small-scale targeted defense, such as the defense against the opposing striker Van Nistelrooy, and then the restriction of the opponent's wide Ryan Giggs and C. Ronaldo, etc., to do these individual defensive training for the stars, the purpose is to limit the play of Manchester United stars.

In terms of the team's overall tactics, nothing has changed.

On the second day, the whole team gathered, the main training method is to practice some simple things, not too complex system training, close to the game does not need to train too much, the intensity is not too much, in order to ensure that the physical condition of the players is not affected, the training can achieve the best effect.

Even if it's not for the game, by the end of the season, there is no need to practice some complicated things, because the team doesn't need new tactics at all. The OS-Fast' system has matured, and there is no need to think of a new set of tactics for Manchester United's game like last season, which can only play a surprising role, and may be useful for weaker teams, because Manchester United will despise their opponents, but Derby County cannot be taken lightly by Manchester United, so that will not work well at all, and Derby County will not need to do that at all.

Derby County's training know-how rehearses some attacking routines.

For each kind of attack, the team will have several offensive routines, each offensive routine is different, such as the attack from the left, right or middle directly launched, it is difficult to play the same routine, what kind of routine to use depends on the position of the player during the game. As well as dealing with some special situations, when the players adapt to the various routines, they can use them freely in the game.

This is like a martial artist in the martial arts world practicing swords, a set of swordsmanship is proficient, it is necessary to practice a new set of swordsmanship, so that there will be more swordsmanship, and the countermeasures when responding to the enemy will definitely increase.

Of course, Derby County is still very far from that realm at the moment, and there is no end in sight. That's why it's all the more important to play the offensive routine, which allows players to know where to pass the ball without even looking back.

Getting your team familiar with these simple routines over and over again is the best way for your team to train before a game.

Actually, the routines are also very complicated, because each player is different, and each player's position will be different, but for the coach. You just need to study each link, what the players should do, and the coach needs to tell the players about it, just like teaching them every move of the sword. When it comes to the game, the players can choose what moves to use when they encounter any situation.

This is enough to ensure the flow of the attack.

Of course, it is still necessary to play temporarily, and the opponent's defensive situation. But after all, this routine can be fought, and if it is very smooth, it is easy to create a good opportunity for your side.

As the saying goes, 'One minute on stage.' Ten years of work off the stage', in the football game is the same, a smooth cooperation, often means that the whole team has done a lot of training off the field, it seems to be very ordinary, just a few passes, but the cooperation of one foot pass, it is difficult to find a teammate position temporarily, it is impossible for all players to have the overall situation of 'seeing six ways', many temporary crossings, most of them are in accordance with tactical routines.

The purpose of playing according to the routine, that is, for the last chance, and some offensive methods are also for the last chance.

In the run-up to the game against Manchester United, Derby County were doing this kind of slightly boring training, but Wan Sheng often let the players rotate for a period of rest or do some football games so as not to make the training too boring.

The pre-match training results were still very satisfying to Wansheng.

The players are familiar with each of the formulas, and the whole team is still very smooth throughout the drill, which is also the result of a season.

The more you get to the end of the season, the more familiar the team is with the tactics.

Everyone is still very accustomed to the routine attack derived from these 'OS-Fast' tactical systems, and perhaps this is also related to the frequent use, except for special games this season, Derby County have always used a tactical system, and because of this, every player is familiar with tactics.

After the whole team's drill, Wan Sheng nodded with a smile, "Very good, everyone did a good job, we will wait for tomorrow's game!" ”

Watching the team's training, Wan Sheng also has a little more confidence in the game against Manchester United

Derby County have done a good job of preparing for Manchester United, but apparently very few media are concerned about Derby's preparations at the moment, and more media are still covering Derby's transfer news.

There has been a bit of a lot of transfer news about Derby County lately, and the momentum is about to fall apart, and the media who support United are very happy because they feel that it will definitely affect Derby's performance.

It's great that things off the pitch have affected the mentality of the Derby players in such an important game, and it means that United have more hopes of winning.

This game is not just a matter of 'face' for Manchester United.

A win against Derby County would see United catch Arsenal at least three points, but they are only one point behind Arsenal, and with only one mistake in the final two rounds, they can overtake Arsenal and move up to third in the league table.

There is still a big difference between third and fourth in the league.

In terms of Champions League places, there are four places in the Premier League, and the top four in the league can participate in the Champions League, but the top three are directly into the group stage of the top 32, and the fourth place needs to participate in the qualifying round.

Manchester United and Arsenal are old rivals and they don't want to fall behind in the rankings, not to mention that at the end of May, the two teams will play the FA Cup final, which will be higher in the league before the final. There will definitely be some more mental advantages.

When it comes to the issue of 'face', Manchester United is the hegemon of the Premier League!

If Derby County were to take away the title at Old Trafford, Manchester United would really be incited at their own doorstep, and it would be a slap in the face, which the arrogant Manchester United people would never tolerate!

In short, there are countless reasons why United supporters don't want Derby to win.

Now Derby County's various transfer news has given them a talk, even if it is not conclusive news, they still report it solemnly, and they just want to use the report to affect Derby's form.

Not only do they report, they also have to conduct interviews, and only interviews can get more powerful news.

A lot of Derby players have received calls from the media.

Wansheng can ask players not to be interviewed. But he can't ask players not to answer the phone, and in that regard, mandatory restrictions alone don't limit them at all. Now Derby County is no ordinary small team, every player has some fame, they all have their own agents, their own media channels, and if they want to spread the news, no one knows who will do it.

The good thing is that now the whole Derby County team is united and everyone wants to compete for the title. That's their goal as a whole, and everyone in the team has a high level of reverence for Wansheng, so he doesn't have to worry about how much media coverage will affect the team.

Wan Sheng just thought, wait for the game to be over. Tell the media with facts - it's useless to do these little things, don't waste your efforts!

Should Derby win or win!

In fact, from last year to now, Manchester United has been in turmoil.

Manchester United fans are still looking forward to this season and are looking forward to a return to the league title. Expecting a breakthrough in Europe, Manchester United's prospects have been uncertain since the club broke the news of the acquisition.

One is that the team is being bought. Manchester United fans don't know what the team will become in the future, and even the old Jazz Alex Ferguson's position is not known if it can be kept.

The second is that Manchester United's results are not ideal, there is no qualification to compete for the championship in the league, and it has been eliminated in the Champions League, and even some Manchester United fans are worried that the team will sink, you know, ranked fourth in the league at the end of the season, but since the 90s, Manchester United has the worst result.

Still, Manchester United fans don't want to see a team walk away with the league title at Old Trafford.

That has always been an honor for them!

It's just that other teams take away the title and still take the trophy at Old Trafford, which is absolutely intolerable to Manchester United.

So Manchester United are bound to win the game, they have to win, and they can't even accept a draw - because even if it were a draw, Derby could have taken the title, and Chelsea played at the same time as Derby

Regardless of what the Manchester United people think, the game still has to go on normally.

On the morning of the game, the Derby County team took a bus to Manchester, and by noon they had arrived at their destination.

After lunch at the prepared hotel, the team headed into Old Trafford for a pre-match warm-up.

The game was played at three o'clock, leaving some time for Derby County.

Taking advantage of the time before the game, Diamares led the team to warm up early in the field to ensure the state of the whole team, and Wan Sheng also went to the field with him, until the time was almost up, Wan Sheng left to attend the press conference.

In the mixed area, a group of reporters wanted to come over for an interview, but Wan Sheng ignored these people and turned around and walked away.

At this time, the game was on the right track, and many TV stations had already begun to report on the game, "Derby County had entered the Manchester stadium early, they were warming up, and the manager Wan Sheng returned to the dressing room to prepare for the next press conference, he refused to be interviewed by the media, and his expression was very strict, which is obviously his attitude towards the game." ”

'It's about whether Derby County can win the league ahead of schedule and if they can beat Manchester United, they can walk away with the trophy at Old Trafford. The FA champions have brought the trophy here"

Following the commentator's words, the camera also pointed to the league championship trophy on the sidelines.

"It still makes a lot of sense for the Chinese to take away the trophy at Old Trafford – he used to work at Manchester United, but as a coach of the junior team, and then he left Manchester United due to a conflict with youth director McGuinness."

'Now, three years later, he's back to the pitch with the team, the first time since taking charge of Derby County, and the most important one!'

"Manchester United have to keep the dignity of the club, but Wan Sheng's Derby County is definitely not to be underestimated, the two teams have met once this season, at the Pride Stadium, Manchester United drew with Derby County, and now back at Old Trafford, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose, but there is no doubt that this game is very much worth looking forward to!"

Wansheng had been very low-key before.

He put all his energy into preparing for the game, which led to a misunderstanding among the Manchester United media that he was affected by the club's transfer problems and had no confidence in the game, so he adopted a low-key strategy, which would have helped the media narrative after the loss.

This perception is very marketable among Manchester United supporters.

In the eyes of many Manchester United supporters, this is the truth, but in the eyes of the Derby County media, this is just a consolation that United have found for themselves, because Manchester United have been being bought, and the results of the trouble in October last year have not yet been determined, and Manchester United are not much better than the situation at Derby.

In the midst of the noise, the press conference finally began.

Ferguson expressed confidence in the media after his debut, stating that United are confident of winning at home to Derby County and that they can only aim for a win.

These words are very encouraging and give a lot of confidence.

'Derby County have had a good result, they have squeezed out Chelsea places, are top of the league and even have a chance to win the league early! But we're not going to let them walk away the title at Old Trafford, it's a humiliation for Manchester United and we can't tolerate that! ”

"All Manchester United players have an honor of being Manchester United, this is the essence of Manchester United, at this point, Derby County certainly does not have, and the young Chinese will not understand this feeling of glory at all!"

When he walked into the press conference, Wansheng heard these words of the old man Ferguson.

He pursed the corners of his mouth disdainfully, walked to the rostrum and looked at many media reporters, and especially turned his head to look at Feng Ferguson, and immediately ignored the latter's annoyed eyes, and directly waved his arms and said loudly, "Maybe I don't know what the background is, what the glory in Sir Alexand's mouth is, but I know one thing, we are here, and the only goal is to take away the league championship!" ”

Wan Sheng waved his hand vigorously and said fiercely, "I emphasize again, we are here for only one purpose, which is to take away the league championship that belongs to us at Old Trafford, which has the historical glory of the owner!" ”

"Maybe someone disagrees." Wan Sheng turned his head to look at the dark-faced Ferguson, and continued, "But he can't stop it" (to be continued......
