The domestic media's problems did not cause any trouble to Wan Sheng. His mind was quickly devoted to various competitions. In the second half of November, Derby County had a very dense field. They had two UEFA Cup group matches, one league cup and one league match to play. △

Fortunately, the League Cup is a group stage point system, and one game cannot decide anything, which gives Wan Sheng enough confidence to use rotation.

(ps: In 2004, due to the many teams participating in the UEFA Cup, the League Cup was reorganized. After two rounds of qualifying matches, there were 40 teams. The group stage was played in eight groups and each group of 5 teams. The top three in the group were able to qualify and entered the round of 32 knockout round together with the third in the eight groups of the Champions League.)

Five days after the end of the match against Chelsea, Derby County ushered in a new League Cup rival, Basel, Switzerland. The team drew one in the first two rounds, and hopes still existed in the group stage, but it was very small. Derby County won one in one draw and draw, and the qualifying of the results was guaranteed, so Wansheng did use rotation, and some substitute players who were difficult to play had opportunities.

In the end, Derby County defeated Basel 1-0 at home.

A victory can explain many problems and can also make a big change in attitudes of many people. In the last UEFA Cup, Derby drew with Schalke 04. As a result, a lot of media talked about Derby's lack of experience in European competitions, but after this game, this voice disappeared. Derby sent a substitute and defeated Basel, leaving the media with nothing to say.

Now Derby fans can really stand up and look up wherever they go. The team has the same points as Chelsea in the league, one behind goal difference, ranking second in the league. In the European game, the League Cup group stage has won two wins and one draw. This season has remained unbeaten in all competitions. Such results have made Derby fans very excited, and some media have admired Wan Sheng. Being able to bring a new team to this level is definitely a reflection of the team's ability to lead the team.

Not only is it unbeaten in all competitions, this young Chinese coach can also lead the team to defeat Arsenal 4-0. While he wins, he can also make the game pleasing to the eye. Even Derby County's defense is better than that of ordinary teams. This is the feeling of the media and fans.

After the game, many media continued to praise Derby County.

Derby County is now one of the hottest teams in England, and they are even more popular than Arsenal and Liverpool.

Many people have also begun to study the 'os-fast' tactical system of Derbyshire. This tactic is definitely new, a bit similar to the combination of Juventus and Arsenal. It focuses on rhythm and speed, and the players' transmission and coordination are also beautiful. However, from a technical perspective, it is still not as good as Barcelona's tactics. However, the tactics of a Premier League team can be compared with Barcelona, ​​which is the best football technology in the world, which is a great thing.

In these media reports, Derby County did not have time to enjoy the pleasure of being praised, and soon they ushered in the League Cup again. This was a contest with Aston Villa.

The League Cup is now in the top 16 events, and you can enter the quarterfinals after playing this game, so you are lucky enough not to meet the giant teams. Although Aston Villa is also a powerful Premier League team, Wan Sheng thinks the game will not be too difficult, because Aston Villa's league results are not very good, and they will definitely focus on the league and in terms of cup competitions. For clubs like Aston Villa, if you cannot win the championship, it is the same as not participating, so it is unnecessary to waste energy in the cup.

Sure enough, in the game, although Aston Villa sent the main lineup, their fighting spirit was not high.

This is a game played at Villa Park Stadium.

Derby County played away, but only more than 20,000 players came to the scene. Compared with the 42,000 seats in the stadium, it only filled about half of the seats. There were many empty seats on the stadium. Aston Villa's performance seemed to be similar to the fans' attitude towards the game. They just kept defending in the game and did not take the initiative to do anything. As a result, Derby County easily scored one goal in the first and second half and ended the game 0:2 away.

After this victory, Derby County successfully entered the quarterfinals of the League Cup.

After playing the League Cup with Aston Villa, Derby County ushered in the League Cup group stage again, which was also the last game of the group stage, with the opponent being Scotland Harts.

The full name of Harz is Middle Lothian Harz Football Club, one of the two Scottish Super League clubs in Edinburgh City (the other is Hibernian). This name is quite unfamiliar to many fans. Their results are the same as the name, and there is nothing conspicuous at all. After the three-round group stage, Harz only got one point in one game, and was basically eliminated in advance. On the contrary, Derby County won two wins and one draw in three rounds, and it has already locked in the qualifying spot in advance, so this game has almost lost its meaning to Derby County. However, to be honest, Harz still has some chance, because Feyenoord only wins and draws one, so as long as they defeat Derby County and Feyenoord loses the game, they still have a glimmer of life.

Of course, even so, it is only theoretically possible, because Harts has lost a lot of balls.

What is beneficial to Harz is that the game was played at the Tain Castle Stadium, and Wan Sheng was very upset about it. He had to go to Scotland if he could choose. If he could choose, he would rather give up the game directly. Unfortunately, UEFA did not allow this, so he still had to lead the team to play against Harz.

Harts is not a strong team, and he has never heard of this name in his last life.

This life...it was only known after the grouping ended.

If he hadn't met in the League Cup, it would have been difficult for him to know this name, especially the full name would be a bit too long. When he translated it into Chinese, he thought it was a Chinese team. In this game, it was a ten thousand wins, or Derby County. It was a magnificent attitude.

In this game, Wan Sheng left almost all the main players in the Greater Derby County, and he brought a full substitute team and a few young army players to participate in the game.

The name of the Tain River Castle Stadium is quite nice, but in fact it is not as good as the Pride Stadium. It has only more than 15,000 seats, and the number of fans present is really limited.

However, many Derby County players who came to the game, especially a few young players who only had their names on the first team, were still very excited. They only occasionally train with the first team, and in the Premier League and European competitions, they only had names. They had no experience in playing at all. Now they can actually play in European competitions, and there are not many such opportunities.

If you can perform well, maybe it can attract the attention of the head coach?

This idea made several young players very motivated to play. In fact, what they didn't know was that even if they performed well, it would probably be difficult to impress Wan Sheng, because in the football training master system, their ability data were clearly displayed. Even their talent was on the surface. If any of them had the value of training, Wan Sheng would have been promoted to the first team long ago and would not let them stay in the youth team.

Wan Sheng naturally would not tell them about these. In his opinion, it is enough to give them a chance to play. Although these young players are difficult to enter the top league, if they are willing to work hard and work hard, they can still play the second league. Give them a chance to play and increase their experience in major competitions, and they can choose to transfer and leave in the future. Joining other clubs is their career path. After all, not every professional player can succeed, but the low-level players absolutely occupy the majority.

There is success, there is failure, this is the reality, and this is the case with professional football.

However, these young players performed really well. Although Derby County was in a mess of tactics and the combination of young players and substitutes appeared, Derby County finally defeated Harts 2:1 away, which also proved that Derby County's bench strength is actually not bad.

But Wan Sheng felt that this might be attributed to his coaching skills.

Even if it doesn't matter, coaching skills will play a role. The 3 or 4 attributes of many skills are superimposed on top teams. However, for poor players, the effect is very obvious. Each player on the field has several attribute improvements. Coupled with the effects of offensive and defensive skills, the team will naturally not perform too poorly.

But that's all.

Until now, Wan Sheng will not focus on such a game. His opponent is Chelsea, Manchester United, and the top European teams, rather than teams like Harz who can easily win the bench.

The game ended and the UEFA Cup group stages were all over.

Derby County advanced to the top 32 with the first place in the group, and Wan Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. At least before Christmas, he didn't have to worry about European events.

However, the entire Derby County team did not have much rest time.

Back to the Greater Derby County, after only one day of rest, the team ushered in a new round of league games. This was the last game at the end of November, with Derby County challenging Portsmouth away.

Portsmouth is not a strong team, but Derby County did not underestimate the opponent. The team played very seriously, but defeated the opponent in three away goals, several away games and several consecutive victories. Many media lamented Derby County's performance in the away game, but to be honest, Derby County actually performed quite well at home.

All the events in November are over.

At this time, many talents discovered that Derby County won seven games in four league games, one League Cup, and three League Cup group matches in November, and the other game was also a draw. In one month, eight games, an average of four days. Some media originally saw that Derby County had such a intensive schedule and believed that they would have some problems, but Derby County did not have any problems. Whether the main lineup or substitute lineup was played, whether the opponent was the strong Chelsea or the weak Scottish team Harts, Derby County performed very well. In all competitions, Derby County advanced.

League, second!

League Cup, enter the quarterfinals!

League Cup, enter the top 32!

So far, Derby County's performance can be said to be perfect, which shows that Wan Sheng's leadership level is absolutely impossible for ordinary coaches.

Some people who watched Derby County rise could not help but smile with relief. In their opinion, Wansheng's success proved their vision. When Derby County was in the second division, they expressed support for Wansheng. In a blink of an eye, Derby County has stood on the European stage and at the top of the English football pyramid. This rising speed is absolutely amazing.

Before Derby County was in the second division, Belco Kleisman, who commented on Derby County games, often mentioned Derby County, and he was proud of it-

"I watched Derby County's performance improve step by step, and at that time I thought Wansheng would succeed! But until now, I still can't believe that he could actually lead Derby County to achieve such a good result."

"I have said a long time ago that he is a very good coach! The stage in the second division is not suitable for him, and I look forward to him having a better performance."

"Maybe Derby County will win the championship this season? Maybe... but I don't know what it would be like to see Derby County win the championship, such as Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea."

"But one thing is certain, Wan Sheng, this young man from China, did a beautiful job in England!"

“…”

Other commentators also kept mentioning Derby County, and various media also put the Derby County name in reports every day. Just after November, Derby County became the hottest team in England.

On the front pages of the Sun and Manchester Sports, the photos of Wan Sheng standing on the sidelines and waving his hand to direct the game. The reason why the two major media reported this was because of the results of Derby County in November and the FA selection, the best coach of November was given to Wan Sheng without any suspense.

Maybe he has a competitor, Mourinho, but Chelsea lost to Derby County, so the best coach belongs to Wansheng. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
