Chapter Eighty-Three: New Tactics

The next day, Zhang Tiehan received his biggest salary since becoming a footballer - 100,000 pounds.

"That's what it's called making money! 100,000 pounds, 1 million yuan, banknotes everywhere...... Lalala......" Zhang Tiehan hummed happily.

In my previous life, I wanted to have a million yuan, but I don't know if I can save it in a lifetime, but now I can play a few kicks and have so much money in a few months.

Looking at the numbers in the bank card, Zhang Tiehan was happy all day long.

160,000 pounds......

When he was in Manchester United's youth team, his weekly salary was only a pitiful few hundred pounds, but now he uses more than 15,000 pounds, plus a goal bonus or something, and after more than a month, he has also saved 60,000 pounds, thinking that he can get nearly 20,000 pounds every month in the future, Zhang Tiehan found that he was also rich and handsome.

"I'm rich and handsome, I'm tall, I'm rich, I'm handsome, who am I afraid of! My name is Zhang Tiehan, and my father's name is Zhang Dabao...... Uncle Zhang is really not good enough, why not call Zhang Gang! ”

Zhang Tiehan hummed a song written and directed by himself, and called Zhang Zhenren.

The cousin came to Wigan several times, going back and forth for his contract, and his brother settled the accounts, but Zhang Tiehan still decided to give Zhang Zhenren half of the signing fee.

That's 50,000 pounds......

Zhang Tiehan felt pain all over his body when he thought about his banknotes flying out of his pocket, but in the end he decided to come down, and he thought that his cousin would be able to help in the future.

He didn't want Zhang Zhenren to be an agent.

There are too many agents to do, not only to negotiate contracts, but also to involve business and other content, the latter is very important, he knows that many stars have more business than salary, such as David Beckham, his annual salary is only a small part of his income.

It's okay for my cousin to negotiate a contract, but I can't help in other ways, after all, he's still studying.

"Isn't it time to find a real agent?" Zhang Tiehan thought about his own situation, and suddenly felt that finding an agent might be able to help him make a lot of money.

But he didn't know what to do, so he went to ask Ridell.

"Don't! Sheet! ”

Unexpectedly, Ridell opened his mouth to persuade him not to look for an agent, "Those agents who come to the door are vampires, they won't consider your situation, and it will cause a lot of trouble." ”

"Aren't they going to make me more money?" Zhang Tiehan was a little puzzled.

Riddle looked at him solemnly and said, "It will increase your income, but that's very little, you are still a League One player, what good contract can you sign?" ”

"You're not yet nineteen years old, so you can wait until you're famous. You're still young, you still have a lot of potential to improve, and the most important thing now is to compete, instead of finding a vampire, it's better to be on your own, and the money they can help you earn is definitely not as good as your salary. ”

Zhang Tiehan realized that the agent is not necessary!

If you want to sign a contract or something in the future, just ask your cousin for help, there is no agent, and there will be no miscellaneous things.

It's an easy life, and he likes it.

In addition to work in Zhang Tiehan's previous life, after all, he was still an otaku, in addition to his own life, he was still a little afraid of trouble, just like Riedell said, the money that those agents can earn more for themselves is definitely not as much as their own salary, rather than this, it is better to be yourself, and when you become famous in the future, it is not too late to find an agent.

"Andy, thank you!" Zhang Tiehan Chen pleaded.

At Wigan, Riedell helped him a lot, and he should say thank you.

"You're welcome, we're friends." Ridell smiled and said, "By the way, Zhang, I heard that you signed a new contract and got the signing fee, when will you treat everyone to dinner!" ”

"Ah......?" Zhang Tiehan opened his mouth wide.

Bregin didn't know where he came from, hooked Zhang Tiehan's shoulder, and complained, "We were all entertained before, and it is said that you took twice as much salary as me, and now it is your turn." ”

"Is that so......"

"Yes!" Ridell and Bregin said in unison.

Zhang Tiehan rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll bleed once!" ”

"What, Zhang wants to have a treat? Count me in! Ellington appeared out of nowhere.

Barnes also walked over with a game console and added in a muffled voice, "And my ......"

"You guys!" Zhang Tiehan gritted his teeth, these guys didn't know when, they all came over, he held back for a long time before he spit out a word, "Shameful!" ”

Zhang Tiehan showed a very stingy look, but in fact, he also felt that he should invite his teammates to dinner, Chinese people like to treat, especially when they used to party, others paid for it, and now that they have a big contract, they should do the same.

Invite guests to dinner, and the wine table deepens the relationship.

However, after discussing with a few people, it suddenly became difficult to find a time to go out to the party together, December was almost here, there was no rest time for the international break, and it was difficult to even think about a day off.

The terrifying schedule of League One teams has arrived.

From November 29 to December 28, a month spanning Christmas, there are seven league games, plus a League Cup semi-final against Aston Villa on December 18, which means that Wigan Athletic will play eight games over the next month, an average of one in three and a half days.

With such a dense schedule, it is strange that Jewell would give the players a holiday, and even if there is a day off, they would rather stay at home and rest.

……

While everyone was talking about the games around Christmas, Jewell was thinking about the inspiration he would get after playing against Everton.

The team's attack has always been problematic, Riddle, Erlington, Makarocchi, and full-back Barnes are all very good players, but the quality of the others is quite different, so the team's attack has not been able to play.

But when Zhang Tiehan behaves well, this problem does not exist.

So for Jewell, the most important thing to consider is what position Zhang Tiehan can best play his role.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Jewell got out of bed, dressed and had breakfast, and arrived at the club at half past seven.

He came for more than an hour early today.

He doesn't get to training until half-past eight, but the last two days have been frustrating and he feels like he needs to find some inspiration on the training ground and take a look at the team in the morning.

Unexpectedly, the gates of the training ground were opened.

"When did old John become so industrious?" Jewell has been at the club for more than three years, and he knows the old John who knows it often gets up at eight o'clock, and after opening the door to the training ground, he continues to lie in bed and sleep, not so early.

He had wanted to wake up old John, but it seemed that he didn't need to.

Jewell stepped into the gate of the training ground, and he heard the sound of 'bumping' from inside, a sound he knew so well that he didn't even need to look at it, he knew who was inside.

It's the figure.

He was surrounded by a dozen soccer balls.

It's a little lonely, a little resolute, but every time he trains like this, and probably only this kind of training can he practice that brilliant long-range shooting ability.

Just looking at that figure from a distance, Jewell's eyes were moist, he was worried that Zhang Tiehan would slack off on training after his outstanding performance, this is actually nothing, most people will not practice alone, they can participate in daily training on time every day, and complete all training tasks seriously, it is already very good.

But Zhang Tiehan didn't.

"Zhang... Iron Man... Sheet... He's really trying. ”

Jewell gently muttered Zhang Tiehan's name, his heart was extremely satisfied, and he stood quietly on the sidelines for a while, but he still didn't disturb Zhang Tiehan, and walked to the building where the office was located alone.

Walking into the office, Jewell began to write and draw on the tactical board.

Until the team was assembled, he only told Strumon to take the players to train normally, and he himself didn't even go out of the office door, and kept staring at the tactical board in a daze.

He thought hard.

Every coach hopes to have excellent players under him, and he has them now, but he still has to worry about how to use his players, mainly because Zhang Tiehan's ability is too outstanding--

Outstanding physical fitness!

It's fast!

Strong enough to resist two defenders!

Strong header ability!

There is an excellent long-range shooting ability!

The fact that these many qualities come to a player is a testament to how good that player is.

But Zhang Tiehan's shortcomings are also quite obvious, his tactical execution ability is slightly worse, if he restricts his position, he will often find it difficult to show anything in the attack, at the same time, the opponent's defense of him is very tight, in such a strict defense, it is strange that he can perform well.

This is also the reason why Zhang Tiehan did not score in the league before.

His tactical execution ability is poor, and under the close marking of the opponent, it is difficult for him to receive passes in the front court, let alone show any performance.

To improve this, you can't limit his position in the tactics, you should give him more freedom, but football is a team sport and any player is in the team's tactical system.

This is contradictory.

In a trance, Jewell suddenly found a little inspiration, but when he thought about it, he found that he couldn't find it.

What is it?

Jewell sighed, picked up the cigar on the table and lit one, he barely smoked, these were the ones that Whelan Sr. had left here last month.

"Hoo ......"

Taking a deep breath of cigarette and spitting it out, Jewell choked and coughed.

"No, no!" He didn't care about the sadness in his mouth, and suddenly shouted in surprise, "Yes, yes!" That's it, that's it! I see, I see!"

He shouted like a child, "It's time to give him freedom, let him be free, you can't limit his position, he's not in the tactics, but as long as he has a good position, others will pass the ball, he's not in my tactics, but he's in the game!" ”

"Hahaha! That's great! That's it, that's right! ”

If other people were to see the usual Sven-like appearance of Jewell, their jaws would definitely drop in surprise, and he would be arguing in the office like a madman.

But who understands the excitement of a coach thinking of a new tactic?

In particular, this new tactic is also likely to solve the problems that the team has been having, which is exciting enough.

Although there are still many drawbacks to the new tactics, Jewell believes that as long as the team can adapt to the new tactics, as long as the most important young man in the tactics can play normally, then the team's strength will be improved by more than one notch.

Perhaps, sweeping League One and really competing with the Premier League powerhouses can become a reality!
