When the news of the Derby County club's takeover broke, the pro-Chelsea media were elated, as were the hostile Derby County media, who saw it as a heavy blow to the Derby County club.

In particular, the news broke before the Carabao Cup final, which would have left Derby County unprepared and certainly not coming back so quickly, so their performance in the Carabao Cup final would be affected.

They don't believe that this news will not have an impact on Derby County, because it is a big news that affects the whole club and should have a big impact on Derby County.

The club is acquired, and there will be a change of owner soon, which seems to have nothing to do with the players, but in fact, the future of the players in the club is equivalent to no guarantee, and no one knows what the new owner will think and what attitude he will have towards the team, so there must be players who will have other ideas.

Even if Wan Shengbiao is very bland, it is in front of media reporters, and he will definitely be anxious in private, after all, the new boss cannot even guarantee his own position as coach.

Just like Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, after breaking the news of Manchester United's acquisition last year, many people are now speculating that Ferguson is likely to retire early in the summer, because if he leaves Manchester United, it is almost impossible to coach other clubs again, and he can only retire early.

Now that Derby County has been acquired, Wansheng is bound to be similarly affected.

There is still a big difference between the two.

Alex Ferguson is the 'godfather' of Manchester United, he is already very old, and he will almost certainly choose to retire after leaving Manchester United, while Wan Sheng is still very young, he will have more options, and he will not have that much influence on Derby County, leaving the team will find a new job. It is precisely because he has more choices and more ideas.

Even the head coach. Not to mention the players of the team.

As a result, many media reporters began to call Derby County players and agents to ask them what they thought about Derby County's acquisition.

Wan Sheng can tell the players not to be interviewed as much as possible, but he can't control public opinion, there are always players who will contact the media, and he can't manage it at all, after all, there are several players in Derby County who are already very famous, and many people have their own media channels and reporter friends, and they are likely to be known by the outside media when they occasionally say a word.

In short, Wan Sheng has no control over the words and deeds of all the players.

But Wansheng is not too worried, because when training. The team is still in good shape, and the 'reverence value' of the players' union can bring more trust and respect to the players, and as long as he is still the head coach of the team, the situation of the team will not be too bad.

As for the approach of media reporters, Wansheng can't control it, so he simply doesn't care.

What he wants is to use the results of the game to speak, as long as he wins the game and leads the team to win the League Cup. Now the media reporters are trying to say everything in vain

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho takes the game very seriously.

It's not just because it's a Carabao Cup final, but it's actually a game of chicken for Chelsea at the moment. It's a shame to eat and discard, he doesn't look down on such a title at all, but a champion is a champion after all, especially since he came to Chelsea. The first champion to be able to get up close and personal, he really wanted to get it.

Mourinho was also under a lot of pressure after coming to Chelsea.

Now he has the highest salary of a football coach in the world. The club has the absolute support of the owner Abramovich, Ranieri left Chelsea before he left, and now the team's outstanding players, such as Lampard, Terry, Robben, are very related to Ranieri, and he himself, when he came to Chelsea, spent 100 million euros to supplement the squad, if he can't get good results, it will definitely not be justified.

The first thing that must be mentioned for Chelsea is the league title, Chelsea have not won a title for 50 years, and Chelsea fans have been waiting for it for too long.

Jose Mourinho is aiming for the league title.

What he still wants to fight for is the European Cup, the Champions League round of 16 has passed a round, Chelsea are very hopeful of knocking out Barcelona, which is a good result, but the Champions Cup is always an elimination system, and it is not easy to win the title.

And before winning a weighty title, it's also good to have a League Cup title as an 'appetizer'.

Mourinho was well prepared for the game, and when it was time for the game, he kept appealing to the media about his team's confidence, "Chelsea are the best team, if that sounds a bit arrogant, then please forgive me: Chelsea have the best manager now, so we will definitely win the title." ”

It sounds arrogant, but it gives Chelsea a lot of confidence.

If that's the case, it doesn't matter at all, after all, Chelsea is expressing their confidence and their team's belief in wanting to win the championship, but obviously for Mourinho, it is really abnormal to express his confidence while not sarcastically saying a few words about the opponent, Mourinho also did this, he talked a few words about the news of the acquisition of Derby County, and at the same time expressed his 'schadenfreude', "Before the final, it was revealed that this kind of thing, their players must be thinking about where they will go in the summer, I'm happy to see that, and it means we have a better chance of winning. ”

Before the game, the Derby County squad took the bus into Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, arriving a little earlier than Chelsea, and they immediately felt the enthusiasm of the media as they entered the stadium.

When the bus stopped in the mixed zone, there were many media reporters outside the fence with various photographic equipment filming.

Wan Sheng glanced slightly, there were at least dozens of reporters.

That's not a lot of numbers, but think about the mixed zone alone, there are dozens of media reporters who are ready to shoot two teams of buses resisting and fighting for an interview opportunity, and when it comes to the press conference, there will be at least hundreds of reporters, which is far more than the average league, and even those classic battles are difficult to attract so many media.

The final, sure enough, is the final!

However, in the face of a group of media reporters' interview requests, Wan Sheng did not pay attention, he did not say a word, just glanced at it, and began to direct the players to get off the bus in turn, and reminded assistant coach Diamares about warm-up training.

After doing those. He left at the end of the team.

When the media reporters in the mixed area saw this, they all angrily scolded this Chinese for really not giving face, and at the same time, the timely report on Derby County became, "The Derby County bus drove into the Cardiff Millennium Stadium, but looking at their appearance, it seemed that they had no confidence in the game at all, and the head coach Wan Shenglian did not have the courage to be interviewed." ”

'Thinking about the fact that Derby County was bought had a big impact on the whole team, he certainly couldn't be in a good mental state against the media, and he has to be calm as a manager in a big game like this

Wansheng didn't know what the media would say. But he's still as low-key as ever, and he's paying close attention to everything about the team.

It wasn't until Diamares led the team to the stadium to warm up that Wan Sheng was idle and went straight to the press conference venue.

Mourinho's big mouth has said so much before, if he really doesn't say a word, he will be sorry for the audience, so he has to say a few words to let that big mouth and all the media reporters know that he is not easy to mess with.

At the pre-match press conference. Mourinho came first, and he expressed his confidence in winning the Derby County and winning the League Cup, and by the way, he made two sarcastic remarks about Derby. He also mentioned, "It's good that this young man can lead the team to the point where he is now, but it's a pity that they are still a little bit away from the title, only one Chelsea away." So they are destined to be runners-up. But being runner-up isn't bad either, isn't it? For Derbyshire, don't forget. They're just a promoted horse. ”

That slightly mocking face is really annoying.

However, the media who support Chelsea listen happily, because they support Chelsea, and naturally wish Mourinho had a few sarcastic words about Derby County, not to mention, everyone now knows that this Portuguese not only has a big mouth, but he is also capable of leading the team to win one victory after another.

Mourinho kept his demeanor when he said this.

He is wearing a shirt and trench coat, with short lean hair and a confident smile, his personal charm is revealed, even the most critical media have to admit that Mourinho at this time is indeed famous and handsome.

In contrast, Derby County's head coach Wan Sheng is much worse

Look, a sportswear, as if he has just come down from training, and his hair has not been carefully combed, it is really difficult to give people a good impression, except for the somewhat handsome and somewhat immature face, in terms of overall image, this young Chinese is really much different from Mourinho.

He doesn't have the demeanor of a handsome man at all

Wan Sheng didn't know what the media reporters were thinking, he was very busy, before he led the team to the stadium, he was still directing training, and he didn't have time to change his suit or anything, he couldn't think about himself at all now, but he knew what he should do.

He glanced at it slightly, and sure enough, as he thought, there were at least hundreds of reporters in the venue.

Hundreds of reporters are not hundreds of reporters, each reporter has at least a reporter and a photojournalist, plus an assistant, that is three people, hundreds of reporters equals hundreds of people, fortunately Cardiff Millennium Stadium press conference hall is large enough to accommodate so many media reporters, this is just in time for last year's FA Cup final.

It was also here that Derby County faced Manchester United and he came out victorious.

Now it's Chelsea and he's going to win as well.

Thinking about the original history, Chelsea should have won the League Cup this season, and he, leading Derby County to win the championship against Chelsea, is equivalent to changing history, and his little silkworm chrysalis can be regarded as breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly that can change the world, which makes Wansheng very excited.

This excitement is reflected in the face, which is a smile.

Under everyone's eyes, Wan Sheng walked to the rostrum opposite Mourinho, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and many people were speculating, what exactly was he laughing at?

When Wan Sheng came to his senses, he smiled at the media reporters again, and glanced at Mourinho before saying, "Mr Mourinho said that Chelsea are the best team, I admit it. ”

'Like he said, Chelsea have one of the best managers as well. As the winner of last year's treble, no one can be better than Mr Mourinho's"

The reporters were dumbfounded, was this a compliment to the opponent before the game?

That's too much of a compliment, isn't it!?

Sure enough, Wan Sheng's words were not finished, "But as Mr. Mourinho once said, he is only second to God, but I am God's messenger, and I am here to represent God, so no matter how good he is, I will lead the team to beat Chelsea and steal the championship!" ”

The reporters in the audience were dumbfounded, they didn't expect Wan Sheng to say this.

Because Mourinho is second to God, he represents God? What a theory is this!! This guy is even more arrogant than Mourinho!

If he could lead Derby County to victory over Chelsea, maybe he would have taken away his name as 'madman' after today's game, but for now, he's just a madman!

That's right, sarcasm!

Directly say yourself the messenger of God, so you will beat Chelsea, what is this not a madman? Is there a more ridiculous reason than that?

Of course, they don't think about how arrogant Jose Mourinho is when he says he is the 'best manager', and more importantly, Mourinho has won the 'treble', and in this game, Chelsea have more support.

As for Derby County, they are destined to be little more than a supporting role in Chelsea's title win

What the media thinks and says, Wansheng doesn't care.

At this time, the game has reached the last moment, the players have finished their warm-ups, and they have all returned to the locker room, Wan Sheng stood in the middle of the locker room, scanning everyone, ready to do the final guidance.

"I've said everything that needs to be said, and I think you'll be on the field and already know what to do."

"Now, let me repeat our tactical requirements. In this game, in terms of attack, I emphasize speed! Be fast, try to be as fast as you can! As long as we can get up fast and get our opponent into our rhythm, we'll be in control! ”

Wan Shengduo talked about the word rhythm, in fact, controlling the rhythm of the game has always been the focus of the team's tactical training, "In addition, in defense, we must be stable, the formation is stable, and the passing and receiving are stable, so that we will not give them a chance, we will be invincible!" ”

"We don't need to take any risks, we just need to play safely!"

Wan Sheng emphasized two points, which seem to be a bit contradictory, but in fact, it is the content of a set of tactics, which are all part of the 'OS-Fast', to be stable on weekdays, to be stable in formation, to pass and receive the ball steadily, to ensure that the game is controlled, and when there is a good opportunity to attack, it is necessary to suddenly become faster, this sudden change will make the opponent very uncomfortable, which will also be an opportunity for the team.

The transition between the two involves a question of 'rhythm'.

Wansheng believes that as long as the team controls the rhythm, then the victory will definitely belong to them. Perhaps Mourinho will think that Derby County without Van der Vaart will be difficult to pose a threat to Chelsea, but this time, he will surprise him, and by the way, tell everyone that Derby's tactical system has long been mature, and everyone who underestimates them will have to pay the price.

And now Chelsea have to pay the price - losing the Carabao Cup! (To be continued......)
