514. Times have changed

Facing Wen Sheng's comfort, Casemiro snickered in his heart. He was indeed a little embarrassed at the time, but Costa said it right and often got criticized and fought, so there was no need to worry about it.

"I just got my head hot and got my feet off! I will pay attention on the court next time!" Casemiro said, just wanting to go to bed quickly.

Fortunately, Wensheng hung up the phone after a few words of advice.

But Casemiro never expected that after a day off, the team resumed training. Wen Sheng called him and Costa to the office with a dark face and threw a copy of the Manchester Evening News to him.

"You guys are so busy. When you come back from Southampton, you go to the nightclub without stopping!"

Casemiro and Costa saw the Manchester Evening News put photos of them going to a nightclub on the inconspicuous page, and the two of them sweated coldly on their backs.

Costa is an old man, he whispered: "Boss, one of our friends celebrated their birthday that day, so we went there! We only played for a while and went back!"

"What I hate the most is others' deception!" Wen Sheng said with a slight smile.

Costa and Casemiro stopped talking.

It was only then that they suddenly realized that Wensheng was not against them going to nightclubs, and the next day was another rest day, but they were only against them returning home at 2 a.m.

"You must be restrained when playing! You are professional players, and your physical care should be taken as a big deal! I will not object to you going to nightclubs, but you should go home earlier! Good physical care will reduce the frequency of injury, and your career will continue a little longer! You can also earn more money to ensure your future life!"

"As for you, Carlos!" Wen Sheng changed his tone and asked, "Shouldn't you feel ashamed?! I called you in the early morning, and you seemed to say you were sleeping, right?"

Casemiro didn't dare to stubbornly talk and complained in his heart, "Didn't you say you've disturbed me to sleep?" I didn't say anything!"

"I'm sorry, boss!" Casemiro looked like he confessed and apologized, "I shouldn't hide it from you!"

"Guys! I am not your father! I have no obligation to control you! People often think that the head coach should take on the responsibility of managing the locker room, and I do not agree with this sentence! In fact, we have a cooperative relationship. I have been with many coaches and many players. I have some experience. How professional players can shine in their careers, and how professional players ensure their careers are eternal. I am willing to share with you! Note that this is just sharing! The initiative to listen or not is still on you!" Wen Sheng relaxed his tone, expressed his feelings, and at the same time he called the two to sit down and pour water for them.

"Don't doubt my sincerity, I'm telling the truth! If one day you don't meet my standards, I naturally cannot give you a chance! You have the ability to occupy a place in the team, which is the basis for our cooperation! Do you understand?!"

Wensheng's serious attitude made Casemiro and Costa particularly nervous.

"Boss, I promise that this won't happen next time!" Costa promised.

"So too!" Casemiro quickly expressed his opinion.

Wen Sheng waved his hand, "This is your own life management! I will not give a comment!"

The two left Wensheng's office, and Casemiro asked Costa, "I feel something is wrong with the boss today!"

"It's a little wrong! But what I'm saying is from my heart!" Costa nodded, "Hehe, it's okay as long as I can go home early next time! Carlos, look, the boss is quite open-minded!"

Casemiro said melancholy: "I deceived him that day!"

He told Costa all the stories of returning home that day, and Costa laughed, "You are really not lucky!"

"Who said no?! This is so embarrassing! Damn "Manwan", I swear I will never accept interviews with them in the future!" Casemiro hated the Manchester Evening News to the core.

The media industry in England is quite developed, and tabloids are good at gossiping. The Manchester Evening News is a big newspaper, but the media's urinary nature is similar and they will inquire about gossip, especially the stories between players and women, which always attract readers' attention.

After Casemiro and Costa left, assistant coach Matt Lawrence ran into Wensheng's office. He was the one who "stole" Wensheng, which was not considered a matter of saying that Wensheng knew about this news yesterday morning, and he had originally planned to talk to these two people.

Brazilians are naturally casual and unrestrained. England is a world of colorful things. Those three-version girls always like to get close to the players. These guys are like fish in water. They still have to be restrained when they should be restrained. Of course, what Wensheng said is the truth. Everyone is in a cooperative relationship. Don’t blame him for being ruthless at that time.

"Cooperation relationship?! You are too irresponsible, right?!" Lawrence is somewhat incompatible with Wensheng's philosophy in this regard.

"What do you mean I'm irresponsible?! I'm not their parents! They should pay attention to themselves! Matt, the times are different now! The head coach and the players are not superiors and subordinates, but cooperation!" Wensheng wants to correct Lawrence's thoughts.

"Now is the information age! Transfers occur frequently, and the players' choices have increased greatly! They don't need to hang themselves on our tree! In every game, countless scouts from other clubs come to inspect their games. After each game, their agents may receive invitations from another club! This is in the past, can you imagine?!" Wen Sheng asked Lawrence speechlessly.

In the past, because the information was not so smooth, there was no need to say that top players were famous, and other clubs would always notice them. However, it was not easy for players with little fame to get attention from others, so they didn’t have much choice. The head coach held the “power of life and death” in his hand. He could reuse you or send you to other teams quietly. The players were quite weak.

It's different now. Players and their agents can speak out through various channels and have a big choice. If you don't want to stay here, you will have a place to stay. Players are increasingly advocating themselves, and the relationship between the head coach and the players is becoming more and more equal.

The size of the player trading market is getting bigger and bigger. Since the establishment of the Premier League, the transaction amount and the number of transactions have been increasing. This has shown some problems. There are many people like Lawrence who hold the old concept, but this is inappropriate.

Wensheng remembered Mourinho. Mourinho sometimes has that kind of paternalistic management. He is the only authority in the team, but there are many players who love him and more players who don’t like his management style. The times have changed.
