20. Change
The qualifiers were delayed until the end and most young people were disappointed. After all, the training camp is not the final list. Change of dynasty does not mean a major change. However, for media and public opinion, the only personnel change has been considered a change of the world. Carol returned to the national team, and the new players Pickford, Zaha, and Maguire joined.
Maguire was not able to be shortlisted, but he was lucky. Phil Jones, who Wensheng originally wanted to recruit, was injured in training and had no choice but to withdraw from the national team. This kid was not very lucky and was injured one after another in recent years, delaying a lot of time.
Wensheng's national team does not engage in physical training, but in training, it requires high physical fitness and physical fitness, and everyone must devote themselves to it. In this way, players who are careless and easily injured are indeed easily injured.
Phil Jones was injured in this context. Wen Sheng specially called Mourinho to explain the whole story. He didn't want to be too passive with Mourinho.
Mourinho did not get angry. For him, Phil Jones is the main player in the front line but not the absolute main player. He is not very interested in the two English central defenders in the team. What he is more satisfied with is Wensheng's attitude. After meeting at Bournemouth last time, the relationship between the two eased, and this time he also gave Wensheng face and did not make a big fuss.
Between Maguire and Jagirka, Wensheng chose Maguire. Since Maguire is going to take over in the future and Jagirka will abdicate, why not let Maguire adapt to such an atmosphere in advance?!
It is not a good thing for young players to foster growth, but it is also a scoring player. Current players like Rooney and Sterling can take the lead when they were very young, and Maguire is also a player with relatively strong psychological qualities. According to the trajectory of his previous life, this central defender from Yorkshire soon became the main player in Hull City and also served as the captain of the field. He will go to Leicester City to be the main player next year!
It can be seen that Maguire can give some trust and pressure!
The media are very smart. As for why they are so smart, Wensheng doesn't know. Anyway, the BBC reporter and Wensheng's old acquaintance Simon Stone commented in his article that Wensheng recruited Carol to the army, which is likely to return to the 442 routine.
"No, you know my habits. I don't like to discuss the team's tactical issues before the game! Yes, I think it's better to keep a little mystery in front of Slovakia!" On September 3, Wensheng took Rooney to attend the pre-match press conference for the Slovakia tournament held in St. George's Park.
There were really many reporters coming to this press conference, and they were not much better than the press conference where Wen Sheng took office. The spotlight flashed, and the media and fans were eager to know England's preparations.
After more than two months, England set out again. What changes will Wensheng bring to the team when he "Wensheng cannot come out, why don't hesitate!"? Against the opponents who were unable to win in the European Cup two months ago, can the English Emperors avenge their previous shame?!
In addition to these, the relationship between Wensheng and Rooney is also a hot topic of gossip. Does being removed from the position of captain mean that Rooney has lost power?! What does it mean when Wensheng brought Rooney to the press conference today?!
The reporters were full of questions. Wensheng didn't want to waste too much time at the press conference. Sometimes when people asked a question, he seemed to have thought about the next possible question and threw out the answers directly.
"A new beginning will certainly be different, but recruiting new players does not mean everything. This will be reflected in our training arrangements, in our tactical arrangements, in our actual combat situation! Maguire is very young, but I believe he will become the backbone of the team's defense in the future, and I can let him adapt to the game environment in advance! Pickford also represents our future. From the current perspective, he may be the best young goalkeeper under the U23, and he will be the team's reliable substitute! Carroll's situation is very simple. His performance in the training camp touched me. He and Kane are both excellent strikers, and they are not exactly the same in style. They can be one of our tactical choices! Zaha is a plug-and-play player. I have high hopes for him and he can bring something different to the team!"
"Wen, the team no longer has the position of permanent captain. Do you think this is fair to Wayne Rooney?!" Sky Sports reporters didn't know which stubbornness was pulled and asked this sharp question!
Many reporters were waiting for Wen Sheng to get angry on the stage, but they only saw Wen Sheng smiled disconcertedly and asked back: "Do you think it's fair to him to put pressure on Wayne?"
Without waiting for the reporter to answer, Wen Sheng said to himself, "This is not fair! In my opinion, being the captain is a glory, but what is even more important is responsibility. Wayne has contributed a lot to the team over the years and also bears pressure that he should not bear! If he fails, he is always the player with the greatest pressure! This is unfair! We are a whole, and the responsibility should be carried by the whole team. I, the head coach, bear the brunt of it!"
"And as far as my management model is concerned, I don't think the team needs a regular captain. I am willing to manage the locker room myself, and I am happy to have a closer connection with the players!"
Not to mention whether it is possible later, Ashworth of the FA scrubbed his forehead speechlessly and silently complained about Wensheng. This is simply a spoiler and is trying to find trouble for himself!
Sure enough, the reporters were talking about the head coach who said that he was personally managing the locker room. Wensheng was probably the first. The head coaches and players of all dynasties have maintained a certain distance. It is said that the head coach is responsible for maintaining the stability of the locker room, but this is usually done by the team bosses!
They didn't know that Wensheng's national team and club were in different states from the previous periods. In the past, everyone focused on mutual cooperation. No matter how big your head coach was, he would cooperate with the players when he came to the national team. However, Wensheng insisted on changing this state with his own "power" and let the players completely obey him. He was successful for the time being and completely controlled the team.
Wen Sheng was too lazy to explain the situation of the team. The last sentence just now was just a way for him to show his existence. The players could accept it. So what if you media or not?!
The reporters also wanted to continue asking Wensheng how to manage the locker room, but Wensheng quit, "I have my own style, this is our secret, I won't answer!"
Everyone had to stop this topic and give Rooney the next question!
Farke! Rooney secretly scolded these reporters in her heart, uneasy. It is impossible for you to say that Rooney completely convinced Wensheng, but at least it is not annoying. In the eyes of everyone, Rooney has no choice but to say good things about Wensheng. She can only say that the reporter who asks this question may be stupid!
"As we all know, young, wise, passionate, we get along very happily!" Rooney said good things to Wensheng, with a warm smile on his face.
Wen Sheng sat beside him and smiled, thinking that your answer is not sincere at all!
The reporters were very capable and asked indirectly about Wen Sheng's actual performance on the training ground. Rooney was experienced and did not miss Wen Sheng's bad words.
"Okay, guys! Don't you think this is boring?! Why do you have to hear the players say that mine is not?! I am so cold in front of the players that I should be my image?!" Wen Sheng felt that such questions were boring, so it would be better to ask some questions about Slovakia.
Wen Sheng, who shrugged his shoulders, made some good reporters smile embarrassedly, "I get along well with the players, which is a good thing for the team and the fans! We will keep this in this state!"
"About Wayne, as you can see, there is no problem between me and him, so don't make up stories anymore!"
"So Rooney will still play a huge role in the team?! Will he start in the game against Slovakia?!" A reporter raised his hand to interrupt Wensheng's boast.
"Tactical issues!" Wen Sheng moved the microphone with both hands to make it closer to himself. "Now will not discuss whether he will play against Slovakia! What is certain is that Wayne, like other players, will give everything for the national team!"
The art of language made reporters understand that Rooney had actually declined in status. He was originally a superior existence!
But the reporters really can't continue to criticize Rooney for her problems. No head coach would have admitted that Rooney was superior to the national team. Even if the facts were the case, it was absolutely fine for Wensheng to say this. If he continues to make things difficult, he would deliberately find fault and want to undermine the stability and unity of the national team. If Wensheng is really caught and beaten up, it would be bad.
"He can use Vardy, right?" Simon Stone felt that this question was stupid, it was just his opinion. He knew Wensheng and knew Wensheng very well. Since Wensheng became the head coach of the national team, he knew that Valdy's spring must have come, and the other forwards were unlucky.
On the list, Wen Sheng called Rooney a striker. It seems that the unlucky one is most likely Rooney.
Rooney is only 31 years old now. He has played 115 times for the national team. Peter Hilton, the one who plays the most for the national team among England players, but Hilton is the goalkeeper!
The one who plays the most for the national team in the non-goalkeeper position is Beckham. He has played 116 times for the country. Now it seems that it is a bit difficult for Rooney to tie Beckham in the next game!
Looking at Rooney and Simon Stone, they felt a little unconsciously sympathized with Rooney. Rooney's glory was no longer there, but in the post-Beckham era, it was not Gerald, nor Lampard, but Rooney who dragged England forward.
Simon Stone felt that she seemed to be old!
Chapter completed!
