Millwall defeated Wigan Athletic 2-0 and won the fourth round of the Premier League.

2-0 is just a small score, but the score cannot represent the process. In the whole game, Wigan Athletics can be described as "despair". In the face of Mirwall's powerful offensive, Wigan Athletics has no power to fight back at all.

A comparison of data shows the game: Mir Volvo's shots were sixteen and two goals were scored; Wigan Athletics' shots were only two and zero goals were scored.

Millwall was affected by international match days. After most of the lineups were rotated, the players with high efficiency in front of the goal did not play, but Wigan Athletic retreated to the penalty area and could hardly attack. The defense in the penalty area was very tight. Considering this factor, it was not too bad to score two goals with seventeen shots.

Zhang Yang is quite satisfied with the team's performance.

So far, the gap between Millwall's main players and substitutes is still relatively large. It is not the difference in player strength, but the difference in tactical applications.

Millwall's tactics are based on the position. The player must adapt to the personal tactics, and the personal tactics are based on the ability of the "main lineup players".

For example, when setting the left side, the way of playing for the left front is based on Pire's personal ability. Other players will definitely have adaptability problems with the "Pirre tailor-made" style. Therefore, rotation in fixed positions has a great impact on the overall performance of the players. Large-scale rotation and tactics will not even be effective.

This is also the reason why Zhang Yang decided to adopt the 442 formation. Because of large-scale rotation, the "dual-core" tactics lose its meaning and may even have "chaotic" situations.

Therefore, the focus of Millwall's tactical training is to match as many formations as possible, put all players with good strength into the formation one by one, and formulate personal training plans based on their characteristics.

This workload is very large.

In the eleven-player lineup, each additional person is added, the "Shirt Spirit Calculation" is used to deduce tactics. So far, there are only fourteen players covered by the team's tactics, including Simpson, Braniff, Smitchell, and even Vardy who are in the repetitive position cannot "queuing in line".

Zhang Yang can only study as many tactics as possible.

This will certainly become a long-term work that will last one season, or even multiple seasons.

After the game, Zhang Yang shook hands with Jewell. Jewell exclaimed with a wry smile, "I have a feeling that you are harder to play than last season."

"Thank you, but we still lack a lot."

"oh?"

"For example, the cooperation of players is not familiar with them, especially those who have just arrived at the team."

Zhang Yang explained casually.

Javier did not go into the deepest, but said, "The outside world is saying that you will enter the top six, preferably just enter the top four, but after this game, I can be sure that you will be strong contenders for the championship."

"Thanks."

Zhang Yang thanked again.

The relationship between the two is pretty good, and this was the case last season. When they walked to the press conference together, Javier also complained to Zhang Yang about Wigan Athletics-

"The club invested too little and I couldn't buy the players I wanted."

"In the short term, it will be difficult for the team to develop any of them."

"I really hope that one day I can coach a big club. But I admire you even more. Millwall is a small club, but he won the championship last season. That's a miracle..."

Zhang Yang did not care about Jewell's compliment, but instead noticed the other party's dissatisfaction with Wigan Athletics.

Isn't want to continue working?

It's possible!

Being a capable head coach, I find that there is no possibility of leading the team forward and I will really lose the motivation to continue.

This is also a problem that most head coaches have to face!

Millwall won Wigan Athletics, which does not mean that it has solved the impact of "International Match Day".

The impact still exists.

Before the game against Charlton, Zhang Yang discovered the problem through "Shiling Divination". No matter how he changed the lineup, the best luck value evaluation was also "evil". There was also a "big evil" lineup, which he passed without considering it.

Millwall can only deal with the fifth round of Premier League match against Charlton with a lineup that is evaluated as "bad".

2 to 2.

This is the final score.

Charlton's strength and performance this season are average, and he is no longer in the dark horse state of last season. He only won one of the first few games, but he performed very well against Millwall at home, while Millwall's performance was a bit sluggish, especially when he was unable to take good care of defense during offense, Charlton got a lot of opportunities.

The 2-to-2 result also proves the process.

Millwall played some advantages, but it was not decisive, and the team's four-game winning streak was also over.

Zhang Yang doesn't care.

The day before the game started, he knew that the team was difficult to win and it was acceptable to have no loss.

The media did not let Millwall go. At the post-match press conference, some media began to have a sharp question such as "Milwall draws against Charlton, does it mean that the results begin to decline?"

Zhang Yang only felt funny, and he asked, "Is it normal for us to win all of us?"

"I don't think it's a big deal to tie a game. If you want to report critically, you should criticize Manchester United. They lost to Arsenal and we just tied, so we are still the first in the league."

The media has nothing to say.

The media, who have no good impression of Millwall, has been waiting for the opportunity for Millwall to decline for a long time, but unfortunately Millwall has been winning all the time.

This draw with Charlton is the best opportunity.

But what about...

In this round's focus battle, Manchester United faced Arsenal at home, and the final result was 0-1, and Manchester United lost to Arsenal at home.

Manchester United and Millwall are both teams that won all four games, but they lost at home, and after this round, they still have one point less than Millwall.

How can I criticize Millwall?

Criticizing the team that ranked first in the league for poor performance is simply the biggest joke, and readers will never buy it no matter how stupid they are!

At the end of the fifth round of the Premier League, Mirwall is about to usher in his first Champions League match. Their opponent is Valencia, the seed team called Group D and is also the seed team D.

This is the first UEFA Champions League event in the history of Mirwall Club, and it will also be the first UEFA Champions League match led by Zhang Yang.

In Zhang Yang's mind, only the Champions League is the competition.

Perhaps because of the influence of being an ordinary fan in his previous life, the media reported on foreign players only those core stars, and the team only reported on top clubs. The reporting system of the competition will naturally only broadcast the most influential ones.

Therefore, in Zhang Yang's eyes, ordinary players cannot be called stars. Only those with a level of Zanbrotta and Pire can barely reach the threshold of a star; ordinary teams cannot be called strong teams, and only those who can compete for the league championship and the Champions League championship can be considered top teams; ordinary cup matches are meaningless, and only the Champions League and World Cup events are worthy of attention.

Now Millwall is facing the top events.

Zhang Yang was a little excited.

Many Millwall players have become very serious during training. It can be seen that they are extremely looking forward to the Champions League.

———

When the Champions League group stage is about to start, Valencia coach Flores is in a good mood.

After the Champions League group draw, Zhang Yang claimed that Mirwall was assigned to Group D and his luck was pretty good, but in Flores's view, Valencia really got the "good draw".

Rome?

Relying on the Italian Football Association's punishment of Juventus, Roma's ranking rose and was able to participate in the Champions League. Since the history of the Champions League, Roma has been unable to achieve good results, and there will be no difference this year.

Millwall?

A small club that has risen in the Premier League, a small club led by a young man in his early twenties, can they get a good result in the Champions League? It's ridiculous. Even though they were Premier League champions last season, they didn't have much pressure at all. The Premier League is the Premier League and the Champions League is the Champions League, and the two have nothing to do with each other.

Donetsk miners?

Needless to say, the Ukrainian team cannot threaten Valencia.

Valencia got the "good draw" and the other three teams in the group were basically no threat.

In Flores's view, the first place in Group D must belong to Valencia, while the second place is the competition between Rome and Mirvoor, and the Donetsk miners basically have no chance.

Valencia's scouts also collected some information about their opponents.

Just as the Spanish media analyzed, the team that needs to be paid attention to in Group D is Mirwall, because they were the Premier League champions last season. Although ‘The Premier League is the Premier League and the Champions League is the Champions League’, if you can win the Premier League championship, you will definitely have certain strength and will probably become the disruptor of Group D. What performance will be full of uncertainty.

When Valencia's scout brought back the news about Mirvoor's "new play" situation, Flores' mentality stabilized.

Millwall actually played technical football and adopted the so-called "dual core" tactic.

"Smooth coordination, outstanding technology, strong wing attacks...?"

Looking at the scout's analysis of Mirvoor's strength, Flores curled his lips. These analytical words are almost the same as those used by the Spanish team. It is probably certain that Mirvoor has good offensive ability and his playing style is full of technicality.

But Millwall is a Premier League team!

The brutal style of the Premier League teams is impossible to play Spanish-style technical football. Moreover, the pursuit of technical football will not be worth the loss. They should rely on tough style to play.

"Maybe other Premier League teams are not adapted to Millwall's style, so they suddenly rise up and win the league championship, right?"

Flores made a judgment.
Chapter completed!
