Chapter 57 Return to the top of the league!
Wansheng didn't know Hart's view on the change in Derby County's tacticals.f
The team can adapt to new tactics, but it took him a lot of effort and persisted in training. With his coaching skills, the team can perform as it is now. It can be said that from July to now, the team has devoted most of its energy to this new tactic. The training energy, time, plus the double tactical training effect, as well as the bonus of other coaching skills in offense, defense and training, it is not surprising that the team can perform well.
What Hart seems to be incredible is that Wansheng is definitely not fully done by the team.
Of course, it’s not time to enjoy success now.
In the second half, Derby County continued to attack Nottingham Forest without hesitation. The tactical gap between the two sides, strength gap, and fighting spirit gap have led to a qualitative gap in performance between the two sides. Derby County's attack is particularly sharp every time, and every defense of Nottingham Forest makes people sweat.
As a result, in the 64th minute and 79th minute, Derby scored two more goals and finally set the score at 0:3.
The last ten minutes have become garbage time.
If it were other famous derby battles, the passive side would probably retaliate in anger. If you can't take revenge on the score, you will retaliate on the foul. Then the remaining games will become very intense and even cause riots among fans. However, the derby between Derby County and Nottingham Forest can be described as harmony. Even after Derby County scored the third goal, there were still many Nottingham Forest fans in the audience applauding Derby County's performance.
Their applause made Wansheng sound beautiful.
Wan Sheng looked back at the audience and sighed, "The fans on both sides are so friendly."
This is not a derby, it is a more ordinary game than a regular league, as if it is a friendly and harmonious warm-up match.
So Wan Sheng also replaced several main players at the last time and came on as a substitute to adapt to the game, which made Nottingham Forest breathe a long sigh. They finally found a little confidence in the next time. Taking advantage of the last time, Nottingham Forest scored a goal that saved his face.
The game also ended 1:3.
After the game, Wan Sheng and Hart shook hands friendly. The two of them no longer looked nervous before the game, but were smiling on their faces. After shaking hands, Hart patted Wan Sheng on the shoulder and praised, "Your tactics have changed so much. I'm really weird, how did you do it?"
Wan Sheng smiled and shrugged.
The two walked back to the player's passage and separated at the corner. Hart was going to attend the post-match press conference, and Wan Sheng... He was banned by the FA to attend the press conference, and he easily returned to the locker room. Let everyone pack up and return to Derby County as soon as possible.
...
After the game, many media wanted to interview Wan Sheng, but unfortunately they couldn't even see Wan Sheng in the press conference. Other places were even more thoughtful. However, there were reporters who were lucky. After interviewing Cahill and several other players, the media was still very interested in Derby County players, especially Cahill, Ribery, Morris, etc. who performed well in recent times, were praised by many media. The media here is not limited to the Derby County area, and media outside Derby County also attach great importance to these players.
Derby County performs well, and the head coach's ability to win is one aspect. The performance of players naturally also occupies a lot of weight. In fact, for fans, they pay more attention to the performance of each player. Many fans do not know the name of the head coach, but they will know the name of the player who performs well.
This is the star effect.
Perhaps it is because the head coach's work is somewhat behind the scenes, and the players are the ones who perform directly on the court. In addition, most head coaches are very old and it is difficult to win the support of ordinary fans.
Cahill and others were interviewed and their expressions were very good when facing the reporters. After all, they were already old players in the League One, but Leto Ziegler, who was with a few people, was still a little nervous. When he found out that the reporter was going to interview him, he was a little excited and eager to try, but seemed to be worried about something.
Soon a reporter noticed his expression.
They found that this was a professional league 'chiller', but they wanted such a 'chiller' to reveal big news, so many reporters surrounded him and asked directly, "Ziegler, you performed very well on the bench today. Why didn't the head coach Wan Sheng let you start?"
This is a bit of a suspicion of being directly provoked.
Several players next to him also frowned, worried that Ziegler would say something inappropriate, but in fact, Ziegler was really afraid of Wan Sheng. He was the youngest in the team and was also the one who respected Wan Sheng the most. Although Wan Sheng had never said a few words to him in the team, even so, seeing those seniors respected Wan Sheng very much, and sometimes even told him some of the methods that Wan Sheng had used to curb the players, he felt even more awe in his heart.
Now these reporters want to tell themselves why they can't start the show?
Wasn't that the coach decided?
In Ziegler's opinion, it is natural for Wan Sheng to decide whether he can start. Wan Sheng will start when he starts when he starts, and Wan Sheng will make him replace when he replaces when he is substitute. Why would he still question? He had never thought about this problem at all, so he said directly, "I just need to listen to Mr. Wan Sheng."
"Then don't you question your position? You are a talented player in Belgium!" This is completely instigating.
Ziegler didn't know how to answer, but he heard a voice sounding from a distance, "Hurry up, let's go!", which was the voice of head coach Wan Sheng. He immediately walked away happily and said, "I should leave."
This made the reporters on the spot very angry!
It was not easy for them to get this interview opportunity, but they were ruined without asking anything.
...
On the second day of the game, there were not many reports from the outside media about Derby County and Nottingham Forest, at least it was very different from Derby County's last loss to Sunderland.
Basically, it's hard to see reports about Derby County games outside the East Midlands.
At that press conference, Wan Sheng's remarks really offended many media. The media reporter's mind is very simple. Since you are so domineering and ask the interview to be carried out according to your situation, otherwise you will not accept the interview, so we will not report you. If you do not report Derby County, you will completely ban the news of Derby County. Can you still be so tough when you see it?
This is what the outside media thinks!
Media outside Derby County can not report Derby County, because there are many sports news and football news that can be reported. Derby County is just a team in the League One. Most fans are more concerned about the top league, the top football matches, and the top stars. Derby County does not account for any of these three.
But as a club, Derby County is definitely inseparable from the attention of the media.
If they want to have more income, they must increase their exposure to the outside world. If no one pays attention to them, their income will shrink. Derby County's financial situation is not very good. If the finances shrink a little, it is probably the time when the Chinese bow to them?
Many media outside Derbyshire, especially media led by the Daily Mirror, are thinking happily.
But they soon found that their ideas were too optimistic.
...
Wan Sheng actually hopes that the team has a quiet environment, just like Derby County last season. Only media in the East Midlands area will pay attention, and it doesn’t matter if the outside media is missing, because Derby County is still just a League One team, not the kind of Premier League team that has attracted attention and fans everywhere. As a small club, direct large amount of attention cannot bring income.
Everything is based on grades.
When Wan Sheng found that the outside media reported less about Derby County and on the team's public training day, only local media reporters came to the training ground to interview. Wan Sheng was also very happy that the team can have a quiet training environment now.
In such an environment, Derby County can focus on training, prepare for the league, and then focus on playing against its opponents. Derby County's training results have improved during this period, and the team is in very good condition.
Four days later, in the 11th round of the league, Derby County defeated Bradford 2-0 away.
However, winning two consecutive rounds is difficult to attract the attention of the media. After all, it is the League One, and the opponent is not very strong.
Another week later, Derby County welcomed Wigan Athletic at home. Facing the Manchester United team, Derby County was not ruthless at all and finally defeated its opponent 4:1.
Wigan Athletics has just been promoted from the English League Two to the English League One. Such a new team plays 4:1 as an opponent, which is difficult to attract the attention of the media. However, after the end of this round, Derby County won three consecutive victories. More importantly, Derby County's direct competitor Norwich drew away with Stoke City. They continued to remain unbeaten in the league, but at the same time they were overtaken by Derby County by a point.
Taking advantage of this three-game winning streak, Derby County once again topped the League One!
When the game ended, Sky TV commentator Belco Clayderman, who was responsible for commenting on the game, exclaimed in surprise-
"Derby County defeated Wigan Athletic 4-1 and won three consecutive league wins! In another game at the same time, Norwich drew with Stoke City! The two teams were one point apart in the last round, which means that Derby County now surpassed one point and topped the League One!"
"Excellent! It's really amazing! Many people from outside now have a bad sense of Derby coach Wan Sheng. They say that this Chinese is arrogant and actually declares to win the league championship! They say that this Chinese is a 'dictator' and actually holds the power in the team. They even ask media reporters to have no rebuttals... No matter whether these are true or false, or what the Chinese character is, we cannot deny that he is a head coach who can lead the team to win!"
"Looking at this game, Derby County's offense was very exciting! Their offensive football was so wonderful. It was with such football that they broke through the Wigan Athletics goal four times!"
"Recalling last season's Derby County, there is no comparison with the Derby County now. I don't know how this change happened. I only know that this change is definitely inseparable from this Chinese! He brought all this, but how did he do it? I really hope that one day I can know the answer..."
