v3 Chapter 17： The top league is not that simple!

The relocation of the Wimbledon Club was a big problem. During these two years, their achievements were also greatly affected.

After relegation to the League One (now the British Championship), the team ’s new owner, the musical instrument chain businessman peter- thought that since the team had moved to Milton Keynes, it was only by changing the team ’s name that the team could reflect the local culture. It can also attract local residents to become new fans and make more profits. The club made an application for renaming despite the opposition of the fans and the FA ’s suggestion, and after a high-level public relations, the proposal was approved. This summer, after the Wimbledon club was relegated to the English League (now the League One), it also Officially changed its name to Milton Keynes, while changing the club's team logo and theme color.

This declared the death of the Wimbledon club with a history of more than 100 years.

This action completely exploded the long-running former Wimbledon fans!

People started to set up their own clubs. With the support of Wimbledon Independent Fan Club and the-, the fans' club was born. It was called Wimbledon. Southwest London re-owned a football club called Wimbledon.

"Things are simple," spokesman Kevin Ley said, "Any club in Keynes cannot represent the 130-year-old Wimbledon football team."

The passion of the fans for the club is obvious.

At the same time, the name change of the club also made some coaches, players and internal staff loyal to the club very dissatisfied, so the new Milton Keynes club made a lot of staff adjustments and spent ten years in the club as a physical fitness coach Walton Cooper I also resigned with other colleagues. Now, Walton Cooper has come to the Derbyshire club to apply.

Originally Walton-Cooper wanted to find a fitness coach job, but he was very interested in seeing Derby County job ads demanding so much, and he had heard of the name of Wansheng, so he wanted to come to the Derby County club to try .

In the head coach's office of the Derbyshire club. Walton Cooper saw Wan Sheng.

At the same time, Wan Sheng was looking at him.

One year and ten months ago, Wansheng, like Walton Cooper, applied to the Derby County club. At that time, his situation was much worse than that of Walton Cooper. No one believed that he was qualified to become one. A football coach, but with confidence, he still got a job as an assistant coach.

And now, the interviewer has become himself.

Think about all this, Wan Sheng will always be very emotional, the roles are interchanged. He became an interviewer, looking for a suitable assistant coach. He has been looking at Walton Cooper. This middle-aged man looks very young and very strong. Of course, a football coach does not look at the appearance. After introducing each other, Wan Sheng directly talked about his request.

"I need an assistant coach who can arrange training for each player." Wan Sheng explained.

This job is basically to do training planning for each player. Of course, the training content is not subject to change, but the timing can be changed, for example, tactical training takes two hours. Personal training takes two hours. Any time these trainings are done within a day can be adjusted. Wansheng hopes to find the most reasonable objection, but no one can help him in this regard.

As for fitness coach. Wan Sheng didn't think about it, he himself is the best fitness coach.

Walton-Cooper listened to Wan Sheng's explanation and frowned. He did not have the first time to answer whether he could finish the work. Instead, he pointed to the resume on the table and said, "You can look at my resume first."

Wan Sheng was stunned, nodded and opened his resume to read it seriously.

Walton-Cooper's resume is not much, it is straightforward to say the ability, the knowledge learned, the work done, etc., but his attention was quickly placed on one of them.

"Sports psychology?" Wan Sheng looked at Walton-Cooper in surprise.

Walton-Cooper nodded. He had a good understanding of Wansheng before coming. Knowing that he was a talented student at University College London, he would naturally know what is called sports psychology. If those "real combat" coaches see this One must be skipped and not considered as one thing at all, but Wan Sheng is different. He is very clear about the concept of 'sports psychology'.

This is a very professional field, specializing in the psychological sub-discipline of people ’s psychological characteristics and laws when they are engaged in sports, and it is also an emerging discipline. Explain that he has been studying.

Walton Cooper said, "I can't guarantee the best you can do, and I can't guarantee the most efficient arrangement, but I am an individual coach. I can arrange the most reasonable from the perspective of physical endurance and sports. These trainings. "

Wansheng looked at Walton-Cooper, thought a little, and finally nodded.

He decided to hire Walton Cooper.

The reason is that Walton-Cooper has studied sports psychology and his last sentence. He is very clear that it is almost impossible to arrange training to find the most efficient method, and Walton-Cooper can To do the most reasonable training plan for the team, this is already quite good.

More importantly, Walton Cooper has ten years of coaching experience. Although he is a physical coach, he must have done some related work in leading the team, which can help Diamares reduce some workload.

In fact, in the team, Diamares' work is more busy than Wan Sheng.

It seems that he is only leading the team, but in fact, he has a lot of work tasks-he has to lead the team to train every day. This work takes up most of the time. The team ’s real assistant coach is only him. A lot of work on weekdays training and match day must be completed by Diamares, especially when the team upgrades to the Premier League, and after receiving more attention, Diamares sometimes even has to deal with many media reporters. These workloads are too large, Diamares is even busier than Wansheng.

The only thing is that he does n’t have to worry about it, that is, to work according to Wan Sheng ’s arrangement, nothing more.

When Walton Cooper came to the club, he could certainly help Diamares share some of the work. This alone is enough. As for whether Walton Cooper can do a good job in arranging training, short time It is also difficult to see the effect. So Wansheng decided to hire Walton Cooper.

……

Wan Sheng ’s influence in the Derbyshire club is unquestionable. With his current influence, it is still very easy for the club to sign an assistant coach. Walton Cooper ’s salary is also good. The probation period is one month and he works officially. From now on, the weekly salary is 2500 pounds, which is higher than the salary he got at the Wimbledon club.

After becoming an assistant coach in Derbyshire, Walton Cooper came to work in the club the next day. He had wanted to start training directly. Or become the assistant of Diamares first, follow the lead to train, and get acquainted with the team, but he did not expect that the first task will be to help the club's press officer Richardson to deal with many media reporters.

After the victory over Arsenal at Highbury Stadium, many media reporters poured into the town of Derbyshire to interview the Derbyshire club, but Wansheng refused to interfere with the team training, so the Derbyshire club had to spend energy to deal with it. .

The media that came to the interview was not just the English media. There are also some Chinese media.

There is still a lot of attention in China about Wansheng. Although Wansheng is a coach, not a professional player with attractive performance, there is still a lot of domestic attention. Because Wansheng is already the most talkable football coach in the country, especially this season Derby County upgraded the Premier League. The first game was against Arsenal and some domestic Internet TV. For example, Salary, etc., the game was also broadcast live on the Internet, this victory has made the domestic support for Wansheng more voices. So more Chinese media reporters came to interview.

However, they did not enjoy any special treatment when they came to Derbyshire. Perhaps Wan Sheng also wanted to take care of his compatriots, but too many media reporters came to interview. In order not to affect the normal training of the team, he could only refuse everything. Interview request, and then let the club press officer Richardson to deal with.

These reporters can only contact Wansheng at a regular press conference. If they want to interview the players, it is not easy, so they need to interview in private.

But on a normal training day, the player's training schedule is very tight. Most players are a little tired after a day of training. Few people still have the mind to deal with media reporters, so it is not easy for them to interview players.

In fact, most of the media reporters who come here want to interview Wan Sheng, because everyone knows that Wan Sheng is the biggest contributor to the good results of the Derby County club. As for the players who perform well, it is not important at all. Unless these players have any big news, such as entering the England team or the like, otherwise the interview will not be very rewarding.

It is a pity that Wansheng hardly accepts private interviews.

This is not because he deliberately put on a high posture. In fact, Wan Sheng is still very friendly to reporters who purely support Derbyshire, but many media ask for interviews. You agreed to a reporter ’s request. Great, this kind of differential treatment is necessary, so the only way to get in touch with Wansheng is to join the msn group of Wansheng, and this group is internal. The reporters inside, Wansheng know, but not Anyone who wants to come in will come in. In short, it is very difficult to interview Wansheng.

Some Chinese reporters directly requested an exclusive interview with Wansheng from the Derbyshire club, on the grounds that they were compatriots with Wansheng. Derbyshire Club is happy to see this, Chinese journalists! This is a good opportunity to increase the influence of the Derbyshire club abroad, but when Wansheng is here, it is directly rejected.

"No time to!"

Wan Sheng's answer was straightforward.

Wan Sheng also really has no time. He needs to do a lot of work. Just preparing for the competition, the time spent is beyond the normal working time. How can he have the intention of accepting an interview with a reporter?

But this attitude is a big name in the eyes of reporters!

When Chinese journalists face big foreign brands, they are unconsciously short, but when facing big domestic brands, they have something to say. This may also be caused by habit. In China, some ordinary people or even stars He is willing to be interviewed, and foreign celebrities rarely interview in private, but Wan Sheng must be directly summarized in the "domestic" range. He directly refused to interview to be a big name, but what they did not think about was , Wansheng is now in the UK, this land is absolutely 'foreign'.

Of course, they don't think so.

So some domestic media voices are not very good about Wansheng. They once again quoted some English media's evaluation of Wansheng-arrogance and arrogance. When a Derby County club coach, the tail is skyrocketing. .

Derby County Club?

Who has heard this name before in China?

What's so great about a little Derby County club coach?

This kind of voice began to appear in the country, but unfortunately Wan Sheng didn't pay any attention to them. They said what they loved. For him, it was the most important thing to lead the team to a good result, and everything else didn't matter.

In this atmosphere, the Derby County club soon ushered in the second round of the league, the whole team went to Ewood Park Stadium to challenge Blackburn away.

Last season's Blackburn was disappointing. After all, they had scored in the UEFA Cup the previous season. In the summer, they sold core players such as Duff and Dunn. The coach Sonez faced the task of reorganizing the team. .

Despite this, Blackburn is not a good team to deal with. Their style of play is known for their rude defense. Even the most powerful team will face headaches for opponents of this style, as does Wan Sheng. He The most worrying thing is that many young players in the team face this tough defense mentality. After all, many young players have too few experiences. Less experience is equal to less experience. It is difficult to perform calmly with less experience.

Wan Sheng's worries soon became a reality.

In this game, Derbyshire's play was not very good. In the face of Blackburn's fierce defense, some players were cowardly, which led to the team's performance being affected. Derbyshire was even suppressed by Blackburn in the first half. , And was scored by Blackburn on a fast break.

Fortunately, Wansheng made some adjustments in the intermission and gave the team confidence and fighting spirit, which made the team calm down a lot in the second half of the game.

After making adjustments, Derby County launched an offensive in the second half, and the whole team looked like a new one. Blackburn wanted to suppress it almost impossible. They can only passively defend, but Blackburn's defense is still very good. ~ www.novelhall.com ~ At the end of the game, Derby County scored only one goal, or Ivan Crewe scored a set goal.

The two teams eventually fought 1: 1.

At the end of the game, all the players in Derbyshire were relieved. This game was tough enough. Compared with the previous game with Arsenal, many players realized that the top league is not as simple as imagined, even if it can be big. The score beats the strong team, but may not easily win the weak team.

Blackburn is a weak team compared to Arsenal, but it is not easy to really kick them and want to beat them, now they have not done it.

1: 1, a draw, which disappointed everyone in Derbyshire.

Perhaps this is also related to the last victory over Arsenal, so that the team's expectations are a bit too high.

However, Wan Sheng felt that it was acceptable. This is a reminder to all players, telling them that they can't be easy at any time, and they must do their best to deal with any opponent. Otherwise, failure is sometimes inevitable. (To be continued ...)
