Super Prophecy Master

Chapter 370 Season Objectives
That night, the media reported on the England Community Shield match, and at the same time reported what Zhang Yang said in an interview.

A lot of media criticized Zhang Yang for "not paying attention" to the tradition of English football. The Community Shield Cup can be regarded as England's Super Cup. The game has no income and is for charity. He can publicly say that the game is "meaningless" and express "regret" 'Ready to race' is a bit too much.

When some media reported this way, some football people also stood up and said, "Millwall has won the Community Shield, of course he can say that. No matter what he evaluates, the result of the game will not change, but Mourinho certainly does not. Would love to hear that."

One sentence wakes up the dreamer!

Millwall won the Community Shield. As the head coach, Zhang Yang thinks the game is meaningless, regrets preparing for the game, and it’s just a verbal talk. No fans will be dissatisfied, because Millwall played a wonderful game. Also won the final victory.

Chelsea was just the opposite, they were also prepared for the game, they came to the Millennium Stadium and tried hard for a game, but in the end they got nothing.

Mourinho certainly doesn't want to hear words like 'the Community Shield is meaningless'. In addition, Chelsea won the Community Shield last year, and the award shield is in the Chelsea club's trophy room. Shield, and then handed the prize shield to Millwall, who won the championship, which is almost equivalent to Chelsea missing a trophy and Millwall King having an extra trophy.

From this perspective, Chelsea must be uncomfortable.

Of course, this is just a small topic, and not many media participated in it. Zhang Yang thinks that the Community Shield is meaningless, and he is not alone. Wenger and Mourinho have said similar things. All teams participating in the Community Shield, There should be similar feelings.

The content of media reports mainly lies in substantive topics.

For example, Millwall's season target.

Millwall is one of the most watched teams in the Premier League because they were the league champions last season. As the defending champions this season, they will definitely attract a lot of attention.

What are Millwall's goals for the season?
In terms of the league, most media believe that Manchester United and Chelsea are more likely to win the championship. Some football analysts also said, "The league championship this season will be decided between Manchester United and Chelsea." My opinion is, "They should aim to be in the top six, at most the top four, and if they can continue to maintain a high ranking, it is a great success."

This argument has many supporters.

When the media reported the "top six" goal mentioned by Zhang Yang, many people also supported Zhang Yang's statement, thinking that although Zhang Yang is young, he does not have the "delusion" of young people, and the goal is very realistic.

But there are still some media reports that questioned, "Top six in the league?"

"I remember last season, Zhang Yang kept declaring that Millwall's goal was to avoid relegation? What was the result? Millwall won the league championship! Now talking about the top six, who can be sure whether he is speaking from the heart or a kind of A satire of disdain for outside voices?"

Regarding Zhang Yang's "Champions League goal", the media almost unanimously criticized --
"Millwall wants to go to the Champions League to gain experience? It's ironic! Millwall is the league champion. It represents the Premier League in the top club competitions in Europe. The result is just to gain experience?"

"The Premier League will become the laughing stock of Europe! The Premier League champions don't even have the confidence to qualify for the group stage!"

"Accumulate experience? That's what small league teams say! Millwall is so strong in the Premier League, and they should have confidence in the Champions League!"

"Perhaps Millwall Club should consider letting a coach with experience in the Champions League lead the team instead of continuing to trust Zhang Yang..."

"..."

The time was very tight that night, and the reports were all improvised. Many of the reports made people laugh. By the next morning, the reports were much more rigorous. Regarding Millwall’s target views, the media’s opinions were divided into two factions. One faction believes that Zhang Yang's remarks have always been low-key, and he only stated the minimum requirements.

The other faction is the exact opposite. They believe that Zhang Yang may choose to give up the Champions League "in order to stabilize his coaching position".

For Millwall, stabilizing the league ranking is definitely the most important thing, because when they arrive in the Champions League, their results will be full of uncertainty. If they cannot get the league results, it will affect the long-term development of the club.

Millwall is only just emerging after all!
Most newly emerging clubs, if they focus on multi-tasking, strive for this and that, often the gains outweigh the losses, and they end up with nothing.

Millwall will strive for the top six in the league and may have to give something.

No club will voluntarily give up the Champions League, because the Champions League represents huge interests. The Millwall Club may have differences with Zhang Yang on this aspect, but considering the long-term stable development of the club, maybe they will support Zhang Yang?

on the contrary.

If Millwall can't maintain the top six rankings, they can only be like Blackburn, who won the championship once and quickly fell, continue to hang around the bottom of the Premier League, and fail to achieve ideal results for a long time, let alone the Champions League. Qualifying for European competitions is very difficult.

When this happens, Zhang Yang's handsome position will also be affected.

The Millwall club will definitely consider letting Zhang Yang leave and try to hire another head coach.

this is the truth.

----

After the Community Shield ended, Millwall had a half-day vacation, and all gathered in the afternoon to continue training.

Zhang Yang called all the players to stand together, and asked with a smile, "How does it feel to win the championship?" Suddenly the players were in a mess--
"Very cool!"

"awesome!"

"I really hope to win the championship every day!"

"..."

Zhang Yang looked at the players with a smile, and after his voice subsided, he said seriously, "If you want to win more championships, you have to work harder. We played very well against Chelsea yesterday and suppressed our opponents. But, What I want to remind you now is-be vigilant!"

"You must be vigilant!"

"A suppression is nothing, and a victory can't explain anything. I know better than you that we can play so well. So I'm sure, the next time we meet Chelsea, it will never be so easy to win!"

"Some people may think that I am worried about your pride and the team's carelessness, but that is not the case. I am telling the truth. You may have noticed the voices from the outside world. Many reports are praising our style of play, but any style of play is It is not perfect, there will soon be opponents who know how to fight us, and what we have to do is to continue to adapt to tactics and continue to improve cooperation..."

Zhang Yang said some tactical things. The overall meaning is to remind everyone to train hard and not to be arrogant because of a game against Chelsea, thinking that the team is invincible in the league.

Finally, Zhang Yang said, "As long as we keep working hard, we will be able to win more games and achieve better results. I think everyone likes the championship..."

After Zhang Yang announced his disbandment, the players started recovery training under the leadership of the assistant coach.

During the training process, many players discussed.

Many players are interested in the last sentence, 'Championship is everyone's favorite'. For example, Pires asked Smicer, "I read the report at noon, Zhang Yang... No, boss, didn't the boss say that our league Is the goal just to be in the top six? The Champions League is just to accumulate experience, why did he emphasize 'championship'?"

Pires didn't understand Zhang Yang's idea.

Smicer laughed with a 'puchi'. He pointed at Pires and said with a funny face, "You actually believed those reports!"

"how?"

Other players also looked over, especially new players such as Barragan, Traore, and Quaresma, who were very interested in this topic. Smicer laughed twice and explained, "I remember last season , the situation is the same as now, the boss has never clearly stated the goal within the team, but externally he has repeatedly emphasized that the goal is relegation."

"As the league continued, everyone found that Millwall had been maintaining good results. Finally, when the team was very sure that they could avoid relegation, the boss said to the public that 'the goal is to strive for a better ranking'..."

"...?"

Pires didn't get it, and neither did the other new players.

Braniff suddenly shouted, "Boss is fooling those reporters!"

Vardy followed closely, "That's right, the boss is fooling them. He often does this and keeps doing it. The outside world says that our goal should be on relegation, and the boss will say relegation to the outside world. That is definitely not true, because The boss has always focused on the championship, when we were second in the league, he still kept the team working hard."

Vardy's explanation made the new players suddenly realize.

So this is ah!

"So what are our goals for the season?" Barragan couldn't help asking curiously.

"You are so stupid!"

At the beginning of Braniff's sentence, Barragan's face turned black, and then he continued, "Jamie has already said it! The boss is fooling the reporter, we are ranked second in the league, and the boss is not satisfied, understand? ?”

Braniff's eyes of "caring for the mentally handicapped" made Barragan almost pissed off. If he hadn't learned of Braniff's wonderful personality from other people, Balaghan would definitely not be able to resist.

Eventually Barragan refrained.

He decided not to say a word to Braniff in the future, otherwise he didn't know if he would die of anger.

But other people care more about Braniff's words. Braniff clearly pointed out that Millwall's goal is the championship, whether it is the league championship or the Champions League championship, they will be excited.

They also guessed from Zhang Yang's words before, but one person was still not sure. After teammates helped to confirm, many people began to look forward to it.

----

Two days later, the trio of Zhang Yang, Wise and Wilkinson arrived at the Grimaldi Conference and Culture Center in Monaco.

Here will be held this season's UEFA Champions League, group stage draw ceremony.
