Chapter 133 Young People Should Always Face Setbacks

Derby County is close to the FA Cup semi-finals after beating Everton.

The next day, the FA Cup quarter-finals were over. In the other three games, Manchester United defeated Fulham 1:0, Arsenal defeated Portsmouth 5:1, and Millwall eliminated Tetra 2:1 in two rounds. Lammere, so the FA Cup semi-finals have been produced, the final semi-finals are Manchester United, Arsenal, Derby County and Millwall.

The focus of media coverage is the match between Derby County and Everton, because this is the only match that can be called an 'unpopular' match. In terms of strength, Everton is still very strong as a Premier League powerhouse, while Derby County is only A League One team, the difference between the two teams is one league level, and most of the public opinion supports Everton. Derby County is considered to be synonymous with 'arrogant' and 'arrogant', especially the words of Wansheng before the game. All kinds of reports, all kinds of criticism, but now on the contrary, Derby County has won, and it is still a three-goal victory in the away game, which makes many so-called 'football people' and 'football commentators' break their glasses.

What Wan Sheng said in the post-match press conference became the headline of many media reports, 'From now on, Derby County is already a strong team! ', this sentence can describe the game between Derby County and Everton, where Derby County won a repressive victory, and they can fully say that they are a strong team.

However, regarding the game, more people care about the strength of the entire Derby County team and the performance of Derby County's individual players.

One of the most notable players was undoubtedly Cahill, who scored two goals.

Cahill's performance in this game can be said to be almost perfect. He was active throughout the game and scored two goals, especially the last volley, which showed his extraordinary personal ability. Age is 24 years old. It happened to be the best age for a professional player, so many media reported on Cahill, and various top league clubs also expressed their attention to Cahill.

Soon there were rumors in the media that many clubs were interested in Cahill, including Middlesbrough and Everton. There is Aston Villa. There are Manchester City, and even Arsenal, who are still unbeaten in dozens of Premier League games. This rumor is true. After Arsenal beat Portsmouth, manager Wenger talked about Derby County and Everest. Dayton's game, and said of Cahill, "Love him is a very good striker. I think he will be Henry's best partner..."

English football always has two focuses. One is Ferguson and the other is Wenger.

No matter what Wenger says, it can be reported by the media, not to mention that he focuses on players from other teams. Everyone knows what it means for the French to be interested in a player, and that means this. There is a good chance a player could go to Arsenal.

Another player to watch is Ribery.

Ribery has been playing very well on the left for Derby County, although he is not as dazzling as Cahill in this game. However, it is also the second best player in the team. The "Manchester Sports News" gave Ribery a score of 8 points. And Cahill's score is the same, which shows "Manchester Sport" that Ribery's performance is also perfect.

What is even more attractive is that Ribery is two years younger than Cahill, and is only 22 years old so far. Such a young and skilled French player can naturally attract a lot of attention.

In addition to Ribery, other outstanding players in Derby County have also attracted attention. Morris, Osman, Baines, Ivan Crewe, etc., each of these players has been more or less affected. Some media comments, and also broke the news that a certain team is interested in a certain player.

Worth mentioning is Leon Ottoman.

In the game against Everton, Osman started the game. His performance in this game was not very conspicuous, but from the perspective of the head coach, it is natural to see the role of Osman in Derby County's pressing defense. Moyer He saw this, and it just so happened that Osman was on loan from Everton to Derby County. Although Derby County has half of the ownership, after the loan expires, they still have to return to Everton. The only problem is , At the time of the lease, the two parties reached an agreement. Derby County paid Everton 1 million pounds to buy half of Osman's ownership. However, if Everton wants to recall Osman in the future, they must buy back the half of the ownership according to Osman's worth at the time. .

How much is Ottoman worth now?

Many media still have an assessment of players who have performed well in League One. According to Osman’s performance in Derby County this season, his worth has at least doubled, from around £2 million to around £4 million, which means that If Everton wants to recall Osman, they must pay 2 million pounds to buy back half of the ownership. In this case, David Moyes really needs to think carefully about whether to recall Osman. After all, 2 million pounds is definitely not A small amount of money, even for Everton, especially Osman's performance is not so conspicuous, can he return to Everton and perform well? After he comes back, maybe he will only be a fringe player? 2 million pounds to buy a strong substitute requires careful consideration, let alone a fringe player, which is still a bit of a luxury for Everton.

......

Among the reports with different opinions, Derby County as a whole is still positive. After all, Derby County defeated Everton. They are the winners and have reason to enjoy praise.

But some of them were embarrassed.

This refers to those 'hostile' media that supported Derby County before the game, the most representative of which is the "Daily Mirror", the "Daily Mirror" praised Derby County because it hoped that Wan Sheng would be negligent, but They failed to get the expected results. Instead, Derby County defeated Everton strongly. Other neutral media praised Derby County. How should they report it now?

There's no question...the touts need to go on and on.

it is necessary.

It is impossible for them to say good things about Derby County before the game. After Derby County won the game, they turned into bad things about Derby County after the game. This kind of casual reporting attitude is not what the big media should do, because it will make Readers were dissatisfied, so they continued to report on Derbyshire even though they were vomiting blood, and at the same time sent some praise.

This is not what Brand wants to see.

The key point is that this is not the main thing. The Daily Mirror, as one of the two major "tabloids" in England ("Daily Mirror" and "Sun"), cannot be like those small media. They just do some praise reports in writing, that kind of report is meaningless to them, and it is completely suspected of 'adding up the word count', so they must also report the actual content.

Where does the actual content come from?

To do an interview, it is best to go directly to the Derby County club to interview the manager Wan Sheng. No matter how bad it is, I have to interview some Derby County players. Brand wouldn't do that, because he knew that the damn Chinese would refuse his interview, and he didn't have the face to stand in front of other media colleagues who were interviewing Derby County because he was doing Derby County now positive report.

So the task fell to Glenn.

Glenn was just a trainee reporter, nobody knew him, maybe he could get something out of the Great Derbyshire town?

Brand thought so.

......

Glenn didn't expect his new job to be doing interviews, in fact. After becoming an intern reporter. He has been looking forward to it.

The reporter, of course, wants to conduct interviews. He is bored in the office to watch some games and then write some articles. This is not his ideal job. He hopes to go out like other reporters and conduct interviews and investigations with various celebrities face to face, and then according to the interview content Do real reporting.

Now he has a chance. And it is what he has been looking forward to for a long time - interviewing Wansheng, and then making a positive report based on the content.

This got Glenn excited.

After receiving a new job assignment. He packed his things in the morning and went to Great Derbyshire. London is not far from Derbyshire. He arrived at Great Derbyshire at noon, and then went directly to the Derbyshire club for an interview.

In Glenn's imagination, go to the Derby County club to do an interview, that is, go to the Derby County club, report the name of the "Daily Mirror", and then he can ask Wan Sheng face-to-face questions, and he can also go to the club to do interviews. Some filming and so on, but it turns out that there is a gap between thinking and reality, especially for the reporter representing the "Daily Mirror", it is definitely not a good job to come to the Derbyshire town to interview the Derby County club.

Glenn had to huddle among a group of reporters who were told to enter certain areas of the club to do some interviews after Derby County's daily training session ended, while Glenn was stopped outside the club by himself.

"Why don't you let me in?" Glenn didn't understand.

The dutiful uncle of the doorman looked at Glenn proudly and gave him the answer, "Because you are a reporter for the Daily Mirror, the Derby County Club refused the Daily Mirror."

The reason is that simple.

Now the Derby County club, including all the staff, is very fond of Wansheng, because Wansheng has led Derby County to achieve unexpected results. If the team's performance is good, the club's management will be good, and these staff will follow suit. Getting more bonuses, of course, has a lot to do with Wansheng, and the uncle of the guard is also one of them. He will naturally faithfully implement Wansheng's requirements - reject those hostile media and reporters.

Glenn, who represents the Daily Mirror, is no doubt among the refusals of the Derby County club.

Glenn felt a little embarrassed when his colleagues entered the club for interviews, but he was stopped outside. He kept explaining that he was here for a positive interview, but the uncle of the guard didn't pay any attention at all.

In the end, Glenn could only leave with regret.

After standing in front of the Derby County club for an afternoon, and then being told that he could not enter the club, Glenn's mood can be imagined, but he is more worried about work problems. He called a little nervously and told Brand the news. , but unexpectedly, Brand did not blame him.

"It doesn't matter, Glenn, you can work there, and you can report to the society to reimburse you for your room and board. You have to be prepared for continuous interviews, but I hope you can gain something. This is also a test of your ability to interview externally. …”

Brand said so.

Glenn didn't understand that Brand was so good at talking. He thought he had screwed up, but it was really good. Although he couldn't get into the Derby County club, he has been in the Greater Derby County town. There must be a chance to do it. interviewed.

But in fact, Brand never thought that Glenn would be successful in the interview on the first day.

In Brand's view, this interview is almost impossible, because the Derby County club rejected the "Daily Mirror". He and Wan Sheng have so many grudges and have been entangled for so long. Naturally, Wan Sheng, yes Derby County Club has a deep understanding. In his opinion, the damn Chinese will not compromise like the media. He said that if he rejects the "Daily Mirror", he will definitely reject it, so the biggest gain is to be able to interview Several Derby County players are already good. He sent Glenn out to show his attitude and let people know that their sports department tried their best to do interviews. In addition, Glenn is a trainee reporter, which is also a kind of experience for him. .....Young people should always face some setbacks. (To be continued ~^~)
