Chapter 26 This Is Not Quite Right!

"That young Chinese coach made a rhetorical statement at the press conference claiming that Derby County's new season's sight is the champion!"

"As the head coach of a relegation team, what confidence does he have to set his goal on the championship? We should analyze the head of this Chinese coach to see if he is different from ordinary people. He is simply an irony!"

"Complete lunatic!"

"Did he think that he really became the savior when he led the team to avoid relegation last season? Even if the savior arrives in the League One, he can't say that he will definitely win the championship!"

"He's a megalomaniac! Not to mention the league title, it's hard for him to win the first league game against West Ham!"

"He actually said he wanted West Ham to prepare to lose... Hahaha, this is the funniest joke, it's them who should prepare!"

"Derby County is under the leadership of such a crazy coach, we can't help but worry about their relegation fate. The brutal competition in the League One will definitely defeat this lofty guy!"

"We can already see Derby County's results this season..."

The reports of the season are almost all focused on what Wan Sheng said. The media reporters didn’t believe what Wan Sheng said about the championship. They understood that the Chinese had gone crazy. Can't, otherwise how can you say such crazy remarks? What a joke! ?

Even those League One promotion favorites, none of them dare to say that their goal is the championship. They can only say that "the goal of the team is to promote", and promotion is not the championship. The title is not so easy to get, and Derby County, a team that had to work hard to avoid relegation last season, said that they want to win the championship, which is simply... unimaginable.

So they are more concerned about the match between Derby County and West Ham United. If Derby County lose the game at home, they have enough reason to laugh at Derby County after the game, laugh at the Chinese.

In the midst of public opinion, the game is about to start.

Pride Park was filled with Derby County fans who came to support the team's first game.

Derby County's results in the final stages of last season were quite good, which brought a lot of confidence to Derby County fans. In the summer, Derby County’s preparations were quite low-key, so low-key that it was not easy for fans to come and watch the training, so almost no fans knew about Derby County’s current situation, and they came to the stadium because they were also interested in the team’s strength. They want to know what the current state of the team is. After a summer of adjustment, the team has become stronger, or, as the media said, has become weaker than last season. The small square in front of the stadium was crowded with many fans. They were divided into small groups discussing the team and the game, but the time was almost up. The stadium staff announced the start of the ticket check, and they swarmed to the gate and lined up to enter the stadium.

Soon the field was filled.

After entering the stadium, fans find a good position in the stands. They began to discuss the game and the current Derby County enthusiastically. They were all looking forward to the new season, waiting for the start of the game, which made the atmosphere of the stadium hot.

Meanwhile, Wan Sheng is doing the best mobilization in the locker room.

"Guys! We've been preparing for the new season for over a month. We've been waiting for this game for over a month! I can say with certainty that we are totally ready!"

"Starting with the team regrouping for training. I never seriously said the team's goals for the season because I didn't want to put pressure on you. But now I think you're ready, right!"

The players gathered around and listened carefully.

"Then now, before the first game, I'll tell you about my goals for the season!"…

"Isn't it an upgrade? Boss?" Leiter asked. "You said earlier that our goal is to upgrade!"

"Yes, upgrade! But this is the minimum goal..." Wan Sheng's eyes became hot, "I have a bigger goal, and that is the championship! Who doesn't want to win the championship? You all want it too! That's what I told those reporters at the press conference just now. They were stunned when they heard what I said! Haha, that scene was really interesting. They thought we had no hope. They probably looked at me like crazy. , but don't care, because I believe you can do it, we are a team capable of competing for championships!"

"I believe that as long as we are willing to work hard, we will definitely achieve this goal! We have done hard training for this. One team is working hard and working hard. I think it is time to tell you."

"I just ask you one thing, do you want to win the championship?"

"Think!" Everyone answered loudly.

No one wants to win the championship, even those who have no fighting spirit, ask him if he wants to win the championship, they will definitely do so. What is the purpose of participating in a professional league? It was answered that it was a job. But as long as you work hard, you will have better pursuits, and the pursuit of professional players is personal honor and team championship.

"That's right! Who doesn't want to win the championship? I think, and you think, it's a crazy goal, but I think we can do it!"

"but……"

Wan Sheng pointed to the window and said loudly, "The media reporters outside don't believe it. If you ask those Derby County fans, they probably won't believe it, because in their impression, Derby County is still the team that needed to be relegated last season. . Now, you have to go to the field to prove to them, let them see clearly whether we are a team that can win the championship!"

After Wan Sheng finished speaking, he slammed his arm down.

With his words, the players were all excited.

"Yes! We are a team with the strength to compete for the championship!"

"We are Derbyshire!"

"What are those guys at West Ham, we beat them in the Premier League and now we're back on our feet!"

"We have worked hard for so long, and we are also very strong!"

"Haha, let's go win the championship!"

"Let them see how great we are!"

The players encouraged each other with high fighting spirit, and Wan Sheng smiled when they saw this scene.

The reason why he said this is not entirely to increase the enthusiasm of the players for the game. The most important point is to enhance their self-confidence. The team competing for the championship must have a championship mentality, fighting spirit and self-confidence.

Strong and confident. What are they afraid of! ?

...

Just as the game between the two teams was about to start, reporters from all walks of life began to 'make suggestions' for West Ham United.

The media of West Ham United naturally supports West Ham United. Wansheng said before the game 'let West Ham prepare to lose' and claimed that 'we will not show mercy'. They were extremely annoyed if they just announced that their goal for the season was the championship. They also think that the Chinese are just arrogant, but it has nothing to do with them, but it is not enough to involve West Ham United.

They want the damn megalomaniac to know that even if West Ham are relegated from the Premier League, it is not something Derby County can shake!

Mainstream media in the Derbyshire area. The resentment and hatred for Wansheng had accumulated in their bones, and it was impossible for them to support Wansheng.

Although they couldn't say anything in support of West Ham United, they bemoaned Derby County, as if they were worried about Derby County's future, but in fact they said everything.

The media on both sides are advising West Ham United in two attitudes-…

"Derby County are a defensive team, and their goals in the final stages of last season were almost all on the counter-attack! We just need to pay attention to their counter-attack."

"Play games with them patiently, as long as you have patience, don't give them a chance. They won't have any chance!"

"Derby's tactical weakness is obvious, which is the lack of attack, if West Ham pay attention to the defense. We can only pray to God that they don't score, so maybe we can hold a point."

"West Ham United will definitely pay attention to the defense, what should we do then? Maybe that Chinese should apologize to West Ham United, then West Ham United will not attack too hard... We can at least save face..."

In the 'advice' of the media on both sides, the two teams set up a formation on the court.

Finally, the referee blew his whistle.

The game officially started.

British Sky Sports has the broadcast rights to League One. This game attracted the attention of fans because the side of the battle was West Ham United, which was relegated from the Premier League. They broadcast live on the football channel.

Responsible for commenting the game is Belko - Clayderman.

At the beginning of the game, Berke Clayderman introduced the starters of the two teams. He also talked about what happened before the game, "At the pre-match press conference. The Chinese coach from Derby said that the team's goal was to win the championship. Maybe that was a joke, but the Chinese looked quite confident."

"But I personally think that Derby County is completely incapable of competing for the championship. In this game, they also need to pray to God if they want to win the star-studded West Ham United..."

"Derby County is better at defending, a team that only relies on defending, even if it performs well, like Ipswich last season, it can only be said that it is qualified to compete for the promotion of the Premier League, but it is impossible to win the championship. realistic……"

Belko Clayderman kept talking. With his words, West Ham ended the first wave of offense. The football was cut off cleanly by Leon Osman in the backcourt. Clayderman said with regret. , "It's a pity, this attack played well, the midfielder from Derby County on loan from Everton is still very good."

After he finished speaking, he continued what he just said, "I want to compete for the championship..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Derby County instantly accelerated the attacking rhythm on the screen, and two or three kicked the ball to the West Ham United half, and then the ball was passed directly to the penalty area.

Maurice, who was plugged in, followed up - kick up!

"Look at this ball!" Clayderman immediately shouted in surprise.

Morris kicked a powerful shot from the outside, and the ball bounced off the West Ham defender.

"Derby County's attack is quite threatening, but even if they have high fighting spirit, they want to beat West Ham..."

The voice stopped.

In the field shot, Derby County threw a sideline ball, Ribery took the ball and swept the penalty area and directly passed the penalty area, but it was a pity that Cahill was a bit slow to follow up, and the football was cleared by West Ham United.

Clayderman let go of his nervousness and wanted to continue what he just said, "Derby County is a team that is good at defensive and counterattack. Last season..."

Half the talk.

Clayderman simply stared at the screen and stopped again, he forgot what he was going to say before, because West Ham was just about to attack, but in their own half, the football was robbed, and after a pass. The ball, the football is in front of the penalty area again.

Cahill, who had just shot the goal, came out of the penalty area when he received a pass from his teammate. He saw the opportunity to change direction to make room for himself, and immediately glanced at the goal and kicked again.

The ball was very fast, but unfortunately it finally hit the crossbar and popped the bottom line.

There was an unwilling sigh from the audience.

Clayderman stared blankly at the big camera. He recalled the performances of Derby County and West Ham United in the opening three minutes, and recalled that Derby County had made threats to West Ham United goal again and again just now. Feeling a little strange, I murmured in my mouth, "This... is not right!"

---The third one is offered! ---
