Super Prophecy Master

Chapter 97 A Promise

In the ward.

Wise talked about his tactical arrangements and ideas since taking over the team.

He spoke very carefully.

From the situation faced by the team at the beginning of taking over, to the tactical training the team is doing in the past month, every detail has been mentioned.

Zhang Yang listened patiently and took notes carefully.

Tactical ideas and planning sound like very complicated things, and people who are not in the field are completely blocked. If you ask an experienced fan about tactics, you may be able to tell something, but generally it is analysis and thinking. How the team trains and adapts will become very at a loss.

But after listening to Wise's detailed explanation, Zhang Yang discovered that tactics are actually very simple.

Wise did not have a general tactical plan. Most of what he talked about was how to let the players cooperate with the training routines, as well as the team's overall defensive and offensive strategies.

These are not complicated.

As long as you know a little about football, you can fully understand it as soon as you hear it, and the most critical point is not the tactical content, but how to get players to familiarize themselves with it.

This is what every team does all the time.

The so-called tactical training is like this. After the head coach arranges the tactics, he will direct the players to conduct targeted training. So how to train the tactics that have been thought out?

Wise gave a simple explanation, "You have to let them run according to a fixed route and stand according to a fixed position, and the assistant coach should also assist. You can also use confrontation drills in the middle to let the offensive or defensive side become familiar with the use of tactics."

Zhang Yang understood.

He had a feeling of "it turned out to be that simple".

Although the principle is very simple, if no one mentions it, it must be impossible to figure it out and not know how to do it.

This is of great help to him.

Wise also talked about Millwall's overall tactical play. Generally speaking, there is no special plan. It can basically be described as "offensive and defensive balance". , To help the team's defense to be stable.

On the opposite side of the attack, Jody Morris supported the center, and the support of the two sides.

The offense from the side mainly relies on long passes from the baseline, or passes directly to the penalty area, and the offense from the center is more cooperative.

Wise didn't go into detail about the coordinated offense in the middle, because he didn't formulate relevant strategies at all, and he didn't know how to make the team cooperate better.

This can only rely on the players to play on the spot.

Zhang Yang also understands this very well. The center road is different from the side road. The opponent's defense will definitely be more intensive. It is too difficult to talk about tactics in a small area.

As far as the level of Millwall players is concerned, even if they understand the tactics and practice according to them, it is difficult to play in a small area.

That doesn't make sense at all.

Perhaps the tactics of their giant team will be more complicated, but they have enough strength to do so much. When every player in the team is a big-name star, no matter how complicated the tactics can be trained.

This is related to the average level of the players in the team.

For example, David Livermore, a guy with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, said that complicated tactics are completely meaningless, and he can't even understand them, so how should he execute them?

The other players were not much better.

The most important thing is that the skills are not good enough, such as a small area within a few meters, it is quite difficult to successfully pass the ball to teammates under the chasing and interception of the opponent's players, let alone think about any tactics.

Zhang Yang's summary is: Tactical training is very simple, you only need to formulate a simple big framework, and then let the players do some routines to cooperate.

When it comes to the game field, as long as the big frame does not make mistakes, there will be no major problems in performance.

Zhang Yang completely understood.

After talking about the tactics, Zhang Yang chatted with Wise for a while, talked about what happened in the club, and told him to take care of his injuries.

After that he was ready to leave.

When Zhang Yang just stood up, Wise suddenly stopped him, his tone was a bit complicated, "I still don't quite understand why you came here to ask tactical questions."

"?"

Zhang Yang didn't understand.

Wise sighed, "I know that Millwall has done very well recently, and it is now No.9 in the league. We have won five consecutive victories, and we have scored 19 points in seven games. It can be said that, The team has been able to avoid relegation."

"And then?" Zhang Yang still didn't understand what Wise wanted to express.

"Then? The team is not under the pressure of relegation, so we can coach and play normally, and we can stay in the English Championship. What are you working so hard for?" Wise looked at Zhang Yang solemnly after speaking.

Zhang Yang was stunned.

When doing one thing, he subconsciously wants to do his best. As the head coach of Millwall, he naturally has to do a good job as a head coach: lead the team to achieve better results!

Then?

Is it the target?
As Wise said, Millwall has no worries about relegation, so what is the purpose of working so hard?
Zhang Yang suddenly thought of Wenger.

After Wenger praised him at that time, he thought that 'when Millwall is promoted, he will become an opponent with Arsenal'. Now that Millwall's ranking has been improving, the team's goal may also change!

Relegation?

No, that's easy!
"I'm here to make the team have hope of promotion!" Zhang Yang confirmed every single word after finishing speaking, "Yes! My goal is to lead the team to the Premier League!"

Wise's eyes widened.

Before he asked the question, he thought of the answer, but after he actually heard it, he was still very shocked.

Millwall?

upgrade?

How can it be!

Last summer, when he took over Millwall with great ambitions, he only wanted to let the team achieve good results, preferably to stay in the English Championship. As for promotion, he dared not even think about it. Yes, because it is generally believed that Millwall does not have the strength to upgrade.

This guy dares to take upgrading as a goal?

Wise's mood was very shocking and complicated. He couldn't believe it, but thinking about Millwall's recent results, he felt that the team had a glimmer of hope.

Finally, he took a deep breath and said with some decadence, "That is a very difficult goal, but I dare not say that it cannot be achieved! It is your first time as a head coach, but you have done much better than me. Yes, I hate to admit it, but things have improved a lot since you came to Millwall."

Then he became more serious, "I want to make a promise with you."

"What agreement?"

"Your goal is to lead the team to upgrade. If you can really do it, I will be willing to join your coaching staff and follow your command in the future. I believe that you will welcome me to join, and I can help you share a lot of work. "

Zhang Yang was overjoyed.

Wise is not a competent head coach, but if he is an assistant coach, he is definitely more than outstanding. He has more than ten years of star experience and was once the captain of Chelsea. This is a valuable asset that ordinary coaches will not have. , Many stars can become excellent head coaches after retiring, and this is the reason.

If Wise is willing to be an assistant coach, it would be great. Both experience and ability are enough to help him a lot.

But Wise didn't finish his words, "But if you can't do it, as long as we are all in Millwall, I will still be the head coach, and you will be the assistant coach again, and you must seriously assist me to complete the work. Of course, I will also In the game, listen to your opinion more."

After Wise finished speaking, the two looked at each other.

Zhang Yang only thought for a moment, then immediately nodded and smiled, "Okay, I agree."

"This is our agreement!"

After Zhang Yang left the ward, he kept thinking about it.

I have been busy before, and I have never considered the goals of the season, or what will happen when the season ends, but after talking with Wise, he found that he needs to set his goals higher and higher.

This is because of his situation.

Millwall manager?
As many people think, he is just a temporary head coach.

The interim head coach is also the head coach in name, but the nature is completely different. For example, after the end of this season, Millwall just completed relegation, so can he continue to be the head coach?
impossible!

A head coach at such a young age has achieved a passable result, and everyone can only regard it as luck. What's more, Millwall is originally a mid-range team, but it is just playing at a normal level of strength.

By the end of the season, he will face layoffs.

Unless he can get the support of the club and a large number of fans, he can continue to be the head coach. The premise is to lead the team to achieve amazing results, so good that people have nothing to say.

Then it can only be an upgrade.

As long as Millwall completes the upgrade, he will not only continue to be the head coach, but also the head coach of a Premier League team!

In addition, he also looks forward to the team's upgrade!
Whenever he thought of leading Millwall to the Premier League, his heart became excited.

There is hope!

Have longing!
And much more to look forward to!
Being able to lead a mid-level team in the English Championship to counterattack and complete the promotion of the league is a great success in the work of the head coach.

That should be his goal!
