Chapter 55 The Power of the Head Coach
As a team leader or the team's head coach, it is necessary to explain to the players if they make an adjustment during the game. Who put forward the adjustment opinions?
The answer is no.
Any well-known head coach has team support.
For example, Manchester United coach Ferguson and Chelsea coach Mourinho, who is popular recently, have seen their coaching achievements, but they are not working alone, but supported by the "coaching team".
Everyone in the outside world knows Ferguson and Mourinho, but who knows who has the Manchester United coaching staff and Chelsea coaching team?
When Wise came back, he felt a little regretful. He found that since Zhang Yang was the "match instructor", he regretted it more times. When Frederick was the "first assistant coach", he almost didn't give any advice. He had no decisiveness in analyzing the game.
This may also be one of the reasons why Wise is not in conflict with Zhang Yang as the "competition instructor".
Frederick has no effect at all.
However, this young Chinese is just a little too useful and keep hearing opinions, which is also annoying.
Soon Wise didn't think so much.
On the court, the Brighton player sent a foot ball, and the landing point was at the back point. The wing forward on the left stepped forward and surrounded him. If Jody Morris hadn't reacted in time, he might have been kicked.
Wise breathed a long sigh.
Millwall's other players didn't feel anything, but Jody Morris was deeply touched.
If Wise didn’t have Wise’s reminder just now, pay attention to the player who was circumvented by the opponent at the back point, maybe the opponent can score a goal?
That location is too dangerous!
Jody Morris suddenly thought of Wise's last sentence, "That's a flamboyant opinion." That 'match instructor' is really a bit skillful!
———
Few people knew how dangerous Millwall was in the foot ball just now. They just saw Jody Morris successfully cleared the ball and did not take it seriously. Only Wise, Zhang Yang and Jody Morris felt it, and their nervousness seemed to have just begun.
Next, Brighton began to attack continuously, and they played a very exquisite cooperation, making Millwall's backcourt defense full of mistakes.
Except for one Neal Harris, Millwall's other players retreated to the backcourt to participate in defense.
Wise was nervous watching the game, worried that the opponent would break through the goal at any time.
Zhang Yang was a little silent.
But ten minutes later, Zhang Yang sat next to Wise and made a suggestion again, "Dennis, we should substitute people! Kevin Muscat can no longer run."
Wise nodded.
Muscat really can't run anymore. The former Australian international is 33 years old this year and is about to retire. It is already quite amazing to be able to run on the court for 70 minutes.
Since Wise has been struggling with whether to replace him.
Since Zhang Yang proposed to replace him, then replace him immediately!
Soon Millwall raised the substitution card, and No. 35 young player Tony Clegg replaced No. 17 veteran Kevin Muscat.
When Tony Clegg was replaced, Dennis Wise couldn't sit still.
His twenty-year career has made him have the habit of playing and solving problems by himself. Until now, he has not integrated into the role of a pure team leader. Seeing the team's backcourt crisis frequently occur, he couldn't help but want to play by himself and help the team stabilize its defense.
Wise glanced at Zhang Yang.
"Maybe it's good to play, at least you don't have to worry about whether to listen to opinions."
Supported by this idea, Wise immediately notified the fourth official that Millwall was going to make a substitution, and he ran aside to start warming up.
Zhang Yang was a little stunned when he saw it.
What's going on?
Is it necessary to appear on my own?
Millwall also needs an advantage in the goal. Shouldn’t a head coach stay in the coach’s seat?
Zhang Yang couldn't understand it.
Wise couldn't wait to warm up, and just one minute later, he climbed onto the court again.
Zhang Yang suddenly figured it out!
Why did Wise have so many opportunities to play in the past games? He didn't regard himself as the head coach at all, but was a completely 'first substitute' player. When the team was in a bit of a crisis, he couldn't help but want to play.
It’s not a big mistake for Millwall’s performance!
No matter what team, the head coach is very important. After Wise appeared, there was only one Frederick who had no opinion and was self-righteous. In other words, Millwall had a lot of time without a head coach.
"Luckily, I have myself now!"
Next, Zhang Yang began to think deeply, whether Mirwall was lucky enough to have himself, so that he could change his original destiny, or whether he was lucky enough to come to Mirwall, and he could always easily get the opportunity to command the game.
This kind of opportunity is not easy. There are many so-called "first assistant coaches" and it is difficult to get a chance to command a game in a season.
Wise proved to be a very good professional player.
When Wise appeared, not only relying on his personal ability to help Millwall stabilize his defense, but also made Millwall look like he found the core, and the entire lineup was much more stable.
Brighton is still continuing to attack. They must fight like this to have a chance to tie the score, but their offense is a little weak in the face of Millwall's stable defense line.
At this time, Zhang Yang felt that it was too easy to lead the team.
After Wise appeared, the team's defense was much more stable, and in the "predictive" picture, Millwall's goal was not in danger.
He seemed to have nothing to do, just wait for time to pass slowly.
Millwall's performance improves, which also represents the success of his temporary command, and it feels like sleeping at home and waiting for success.
Work is so smooth!
But people always have to look forward and strive for progress. When the 85th minute of the game, Zhang Yang finally moved his butt. He walked to the sidelines and called out to Braniff, who had been idle, and reminded him, "Stand to the left more often, maybe there are more opportunities."
After hearing this, Braniff nodded.
But he didn't care too much, because Zhang Yang was not the head coach. Even the head coach would not point fingers at his position in the frontcourt. He just dealt with it with face.
When Zhang Yang returned to the coaching seat, he found that Braniff had not listened to him at all, and he seemed to have not said anything just now.
Zhang Yang suddenly became a little angry.
If Wise was still sitting in the coach's seat, he wouldn't be angry at all, because commanding the game was Wise's business, but when Wise appeared in the game, he was the interim head coach and had the power to command the game!
Doesn't this guy treat the interim head coach as the head coach?
Zhang Yang glanced left and right, and his eyes were fixed on a young player.
That was Curtis Weston, an 18-year-old forward who played center in the youth team. His only advantage was his fast speed. However, after entering the first team, he only appeared twice for the team's substitute and his performance was very average.
Zhang Yang looked at Curtis Weston and asked, "Do you want to show up, Curtis?"
Weston was stunned after hearing this. He rubbed his hands and felt a little at a loss, but his face was full of joy, "Of course, Zhang Yang, can I appear?"
"Yes, but you have to listen to me."
"you say."
Zhang Yang whispered to Weston and exercised the power of the head coach and notified the fourth official to replace him.
In the 87th minute, Millwall used up the third substitution, and 18-year-old young player Curtis Weston replaced forward Braniff.
Seeing this substitution, Wise was a little angry again.
Braniff is not the absolute main player, but he performed very well in this game. He also helped the team score a goal in the first half. Why did he replace him in the end?
Curtis Weston?
How can an 18-year-old help?
What was even more angry was that Braniff knew better than anyone why he was replaced, so when he was about to come, he didn't even say a symbolic greeting and sat back on the bench with a stern face.
Zhang Yang ignored him at all.
I am the interim head coach. Do you want to stay on the court without obeying the command?
Don't even think about it!
