Chapter 314 You will fall in love with its taste(1/2)
The locker room was in chaos.
Jody Morris was selected as the best player. He got the red wine from the FA. He walked back to the room and was immediately opened by his teammates. The red wine failed to play a role in "drinking". He was sprayed everywhere, and the red stains immediately made the room a mess.
Braniff found a box of mineral water, opened a bottle and poured it on Morris' head, "Congratulations on being the best player!"
A word of congratulations was said to be like this, which naturally attracted Morris' counterattack. Then a group of teammates joined the battle, and mineral water and poor red wine became weapons, and soon other things became weapons.
When Zhang Yang returned to the locker room, he saw the scene inside and thought that when he entered the vegetable market in the slums, almost no players were spared. Everyone looked embarrassed, and the most embarrassed one was Morris.
Maybe it's the best player that everyone is jealous of?
The messy hair, water droplets fell from his cheeks, his shirt was pulled halfway open, and his pants seemed to be broken. Seeing this, Zhang Yang almost burst into laughter compared to his usual healthy dress. Fortunately, he held back and looked at Dennis Wise with complaint, "Why don't you stop them! Nothing!"
Wise spread his hands, "I think they should vent appropriately."
Wise was the one who survived. Perhaps because he came late, he kept standing at the door, watching happily, and did not take the initiative to join in.
"Ahem..."
After Zhang Yang walked into the locker room, it suddenly became quiet. Many players sneered and lowered their heads. It seemed that they had taken advantage of the chaos just now. Considering their embarrassing appearance, they could only sigh, "Professional players, no matter how old they are, are still children!"
Standing among the players, Zhang Yang finally spoke, "I originally wanted to praise your performance. Yes, we won, and the winning in the plan is also a very difficult victory. This victory brings us closer to the championship..."
"But judging from your appearance, there seems to be no need to say anything more! Now! Immediately! Everyone! Get yourself clean up, we are going back soon!"
"Fifteen minutes later, whoever looks like this is still like this? Then go back in this way!"
As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, the locker room was in chaos again.
This time it was not a chaotic battle, but a shower battle. There was no need to talk about the scene of a group of big men fighting to take a shower. Anyway, Zhang Yang was not interested. He simply walked out with a small bag, went to a spacious area in the corridor, took out a cigar from the small bag, and started to suck it on the spot with big mouthfuls.
Wise came over and asked strangely, "This? Haven't you finished smoking?"
He refers to several packs of cigars from the head coach's office.
Zhang Yang handed over one, but Wise refused, and then he smiled and said, "It was given by the Saudis."
After Wilkinson became vice chairman, he not only decided to renew his contract, sign a major new contract, but also replaced new computers, tactical boards and other equipment to the head coach's office, and gave him a lot of things.
Zhang Yang knew that the other party was calming his heart, and he didn't plan to leave the club, so he accepted it with a smile.
"Smoking is a bad habit," Wise reminded.
Zhang Yang said, "Of course, I don't smoke normally, but now we win. This may be the last difficult game, right? It's a very stressful game, and it's time to release the pressure."
Wise seems to have different focus, “You will also be under pressure?”
Zhang Yang shrugged.
"I thought you were not stressed at all. Seeing that you were not nervous at all before and after the game, if you hadn't worked with you, I thought you had bribed the referee, otherwise why would this happen?" Wise finished jokingly.
Zhang Yang said, "Of course, everyone will be under pressure. I am under greater pressure, but I don't show it on weekdays. But no matter what, this is the job of the head coach."
"You have grown up."
"Thanks!"
The two sighed together.
Wise stood for a while and simply reached over, "Give me one, I want to try the taste."
"But……"
"I'm no longer a professional player."
Zhang Yang handed over one and smiled, "Maybe it should congratulations. Twenty years later, I can finally live and enjoy life. Well, you will fall in love with its taste."
———
After a big battle, the players need rest.
After the 33rd round of the Premier League ended, there was a six-day interval. Zhang Yang saw the players' listless expressions and waved his hand to give everyone a day off, urging them to stay at home and keep their bodies and spirits well.
"Today is April 9th. The final of the Football Cup is on the fifteenth of next month. In more than a month, you can enjoy the real holiday. So, before that, I don't want to see anyone, because life outside the court affects their condition, do you understand?"
Before the team was disbanded, Zhang Yang's advice made everyone excited because they would not be able to train tomorrow.
In Millwall's case, the FA Cup will have to play in the semi-finals and the league will also have to compete for the championship. At such a tense moment, it is quite luxurious to have a holiday one day.
Zhang Yang also needs a day off.
After the whole team disbanded that day, he fell asleep when he got home. He didn't wake up the next morning. Thinking of not having to go to the club, he turned on his tablet and glanced at the news of the game.
The day before was the Premier League, and the next day there were news everywhere. The match between Millwall and Chelsea was mainly reported by the media. The content of the report began to be related to Millwall's championship competition--
"Milwall beat Chelsea away, and the league's points advantage has increased to eight points! Eight points, three games, and only five rounds left in the league. Millwall's probability of winning the championship is extremely high!"
"No one expected Chelsea's 2-3 loss at home! In the Stamford Bridge Stadium, Millwall defeated the strong Blues with counterattack efficiency!"
"The best player in the game is Jody Morris, maybe it's equivalent to laughing at Chelsea because Morris used to be a Chelsea player."
"Morris showed a very good competitive state against his old club!"
"Zhang Yang said after the game: The team has the belief of winning!"
"Maybe it is faith that supports Millwall. Players are like fanatical believers. They crazyly believe that the team can win, and in the end they did it!"
"In addition, the legendary English star and the British BBC broadcast host, Mr. Ringer said that it is not surprising that Zhang Yang led the team successfully, but he still regrets that Zhang Yang chose to be the head coach..."
The last message made Zhang Yang unable to help but pull the corner of his mouth.
Leinker?
This guy really misses him!
In fact, when I really think about it, being an amateur football commentator, occasionally commenting on games, and being a guest of the show is also pretty good. The salary is definitely much worse, but it is enough to live a normal life. There will be no pressure on work, but it is very easy and has a lot of free time.
Zhang Yang still misses him quite a bit.
Now he has become the head coach of Millwall. His continuous work has made him very tired. During the intervals of each season, the club has transfers and there is no time to get much rest.
This kind of life is very stressful and very tense.
"Maybe I should relax myself?" Zhang Yang suddenly had this idea, but immediately shook his head and gave up.
He hasn't been relaxing yet.
The head coaching career is just starting out. If he leads the team to win the Champions League, it means he has achieved success and may be able to relax for a while because he doesn't have to worry about his next job.
This is not the case now. Even if Mirwall is about to win the league championship and his ability to lead the team is recognized by many people, he is still just a "first-breaking" rookie. In the eyes of most people, he is just a young coach who has just emerged, but he is not very successful.
On the way of the head coach, he must keep moving forward!

That day, Katherine had a day off, so Zhang Yang asked Katherine to come to her house for lunch.
"I'll cook myself and prepare Chinese food for you!"
The above is a bold statement.
Catherine had no date, so she agreed to come. At noon, Zhang Yang really prepared three dishes, although they were all simple fried eggs, vegetables and pork, and they also received praise from her thumbs up.
After lunch, the two of them did post-dinner exercises.
Although exercise is good for health, the two of them have been doing well from noon to evening as soon as they exercise. They waited until dinner, and Zhang Yang lay lazily on the bed and ordered two takeouts. Catherine, who has always been in good physical condition, seemed to be more lazy than Zhang Yang. She was half lying on the bed, her eyes closed and she didn't want to move.
Finally, it was a small gesture from the gale that made her scream, and she felt a little more energetic, "Don't make trouble!"
"I'll prepare for dinner later."
"I know."
Zhang Yang was half lying on the bed, stretched his waist long, looked at the time of his phone, and chatted about family matters, "Are you very busy with work recently? How about Denise's company? I haven't cared about it for a long time."
"You know, too!"
Catherine half-lying up, leaned her head against his shoulder, and glared at her dissatisfiedly, "I don't know the specific situation, but I've been busy with filming recently. I only had four days off last month."
"This is how the actors are." Zhang Yang comforted him.
Catherine said in a spirited spirit, "To be honest, I would rather not take a vacation. The company raised my salary and got four times more than before!"
"Are you still a little money fan?"
"No." Katherine said, "It proves my ability to work. I find that I am a good fit to be an actor, and everyone else says that."
Perhaps he has not achieved much in his work all the time, and Catherine has begun to constantly tell the little success he has achieved, as if he wants to get positive recognition from Yingying.
Zhang Yang forced himself to resist the interrupted desire, listened to his left ear and held on his right ear.
"It's too difficult!"
Zhang Yang sighed, not knowing whether it was talking about Catherine or his ears.
Catherine's long speech ended. Seeing Zhang Yang's nodding in recognition, she immediately smiled and suddenly changed the topic and talked about John, "John is getting married!"
Zhang Yang started to scream and said in surprise, "John? Get married? and Ebson?"
"Yes, that old woman!" Catherine seemed quite dissatisfied with Ebson's father who took her.
This may be understandable.
Which child would want his father to marry a stepmother? It is the same in the UK, especially since Catherine has always lived in a single-parent family, John is not old and has not yet reached the stage of spending the rest of his life with his wife.
