Chapter 88 Birthday Present
When Wansheng and the club's two giants were negotiating about contracts and transfer rights, the training ground for the first team of the Derby County Club was also underway.
Since Wansheng became the head coach, each player has had a personal training task. Coupled with the team's tactical training content, Derby County's training intensity is much stronger than when Gregory was coaching. Most of them are training silently, and their energy is put on sweat. In addition, they have to face the pressure of relegation, the atmosphere will not be too active, and the players' communication is limited to people they know well.
But today's atmosphere is relaxed, because they have completely relegated in advance.
Relegation has always been the biggest pressure for the team, not only the club, but every player has to bear this pressure. They have worked hard for a season, some often play, some do not play often, but it is undeniable that they are all working hard for the team However, they are the direct participants in making the team's results. After working hard for a season, the team was relegated in exchange, and no one could accept it, so they faced the pressure of relegation no less than the rest of the club.
Now that the relegation has finally been completed, it is still two rounds ahead of schedule. The next two games will naturally become unimportant. In the absence of pressure, the atmosphere in the team seems very relaxed. Everyone is doing training, but also talking about easy things, such as vacations, and some gossips around them, or gossip about female stars.
But soon everyone talked about the new goal that Wansheng told them - upgrade.
Two days ago, when Wansheng said that the goal of the new season is to upgrade, almost everyone was incredulous. They don't have confidence in the team, and many people don't have confidence in themselves. Derby County has been working hard to avoid relegation this season, and everyone subconsciously thinks that they are the bottom of the 24 teams.
Most people's mood to celebrate being relegated also comes from this - they feel that relegation is worth celebrating, because it is good to be able to avoid relegation!
When they talk about upgrading in this state of mind, they feel at a loss.
Although these two days are on vacation. But many people have also thought about the possibility of striving for an upgrade next season. Some of them still think it is possible. The upgrade seems out of reach, but thinking about the recent results of the team is still quite good, as long as it can maintain the whole season. so. So upgrading is by no means just looking forward to it.
Everyone is talking about the possibility of the team being upgraded.
"Mr. Wan Sheng is very confident. I believe he will succeed!"
"I also want him to succeed, so next season, I can play in the Premier League! But I don't think there is much hope. It's not that easy to upgrade."
"It wasn't one or two wins, it was a good season all season."
"But if I can really upgrade, it will be a big miracle. I can also be a part of the miracle of Derby County's upgrade. Maybe my name will be firmly remembered by the fans."
Everyone has their own opinion.
The atmosphere in the team is very relaxed. Everyone had a smile on their face, but they still worked hard in training, after all, there was assistant coach Diamares watching. In fact, even without Diamares, no one dared to be lazy in personal training. Many things have proved that Wansheng always seems to be able to know if they are lazy, so those who were lazy were punished.
Now they're not taking chances.
But not everyone is like that. With so many people on the team, there is always something discordant. One of the best is Michael Johnson.
Michael Johnson has long planned to leave the team in the summer, and his agent has begun to contact various teams that are interested in him, so he does not care about the current training at all. Anyway, I left in a few days, so training or something is no longer important.
He still has some resentment towards Wan Sheng.
After Wansheng became the head coach, he didn't even have the chance to play. As a result, it is not easy to contact the transfer now. Those clubs that are interested in him are not sure of his state, so he wants to leave and get a Satisfactory contracts are not easy either.
"It's all caused by that Chinese!" Michael Johnson thought.
Under this mentality, he didn't care about training. When he heard his teammates talk about the goal of upgrading, Michael Johnson thought of himself in the game against Ipswich, and he couldn't even enter the squad. So he was in a worse mood.
"What upgrade! Shit! That's a guy who likes to brag! Leading Derby County to upgrade? This is a big joke, it's shit luck to lead the team to avoid relegation!"
Michael Johnson muttered in a low voice, but the voice could be heard clearly even by Diamares, who was watching the training next to him.
Diamares looked at Michael Johnson and shook his head. He knew this guy was going to leave in the summer. There was no point in arguing with him now, and Michael Johnson said something 'privately' and he didn't reason to argue with the opponent.
The players who supported Wansheng were also very upset.
There are people who want to and stand up, but think about it and still haven't done that. Because of what happened in the media before, most people didn't like to pay attention to Michael Johnson at first, and now he is going to leave, let him say something nasty.
In any case, he will not be seen in the team that is striving for promotion next year. As long as he does not go too far, no one wants to ignore him.
When Wan Sheng returned to practice, Diamares reminded him about Michael Johnson, and what he said, and his lack of seriousness in training, this is no snitch, Diamares Spencer was the team's assistant coach, and that's part of his job.
Wan Sheng glanced at the stadium.
Michael Johnson is training, but with that laid-back attitude, it makes him look more like he's relaxing than doing individual training.
But in the end Wansheng shook his head and ignored Michael Johnson.
This guy is not in the plan for next season. He originally planned to sell him and exchange money for the club. Now the attitude of the other party makes him even more disgusted. If it is a player in the plan, he will still Criticized in the past and asked the other party to change and take training seriously.
A player who is not in the plan... If the opponent is serious, finally give him another training plan and give him some guidance so that he can play well in other teams in the future. It's also righteousness.
But with the attitude of the other party, he didn't need to waste his saliva.
...
A day of training passed quickly.
After disbanding the team, Wan Sheng returned to the office and carefully studied the opponents for the next two games, Walsall and Gillingham. Two League One mid-table teams.
If you take the game seriously. These two opponents are still very good to deal with.
It is not to say how weak these two teams are. In fact, their points rankings are higher than Derby County, but because of this, they have nothing to pursue, there is no pressure to relegation, and there is no hope for promotion. This team is at the end of the league. The team will not be forced to fight at all.
So does Derbyshire.
After two rounds of relegation ahead of schedule, the outcome of the remaining two games is irrelevant.
Wansheng is thinking of letting players who are not in the training plan for next season play. If they have a good performance, it may help them to leave the team, and at the same time, they can sell the club for a good price.
He had some confidence in that.
After two months of training, everyone has improved a bit. Those who were the main force of Gregory's team before, but now it is difficult to play the game, have also improved in strength. When they get to the field, they just need to play seriously. Stable performance can still be guaranteed.
He thought about how to arrange the lineup so that the team can play well and at the same time, let these players have some performances.
It is not easy to grasp this degree.
This also has to do with the roster to stay in the team in the summer, but Wan Sheng hasn't fully considered it, so in the end he still hasn't made a decision. Checking that the time is already eight o'clock in the evening, Wan Sheng shakes his head and prepares to go back .
He lazily took a taxi home.
Pushing open the door, it was pitch black inside.
At this time, Dali was still busy at the tavern, and usually didn't come back until after ten o'clock. Wan Sheng stretched out his hand to turn on the light, and at this moment, the lights in the room suddenly turned on.
“Happy-Birthday!!!”
Suddenly, many people rushed out of the room. In front of the door, behind the sofa, and in the corridor, they shouted happy birthday and rushed over to sprinkle colorful confetti.
Wan Sheng stood in a daze in front of the door.
The room has been set up, it has become the venue for PATTY, and everyone is shouting happy birthday, happy birthday?
Today...it really seems to be my birthday.
Wan Sheng was in a daze for a long time before he could react. He has no impression of his birthday at all. It seems to be recent in his memory, but he doesn't care at all. He never had a birthday in his previous life, and no one would think about his birthday, and he will not pay attention to it in this life. The thought is that Daly will find these people to celebrate her birthday.
Wan Sheng looked at these faces.
There are familiar faces, Beth, John, Blitz, and some people who often hang out in bars to drink together, and there are also many unfamiliar faces, who are probably all brought friends.
Just thinking about it, Dali had already come over. She grabbed Wan Sheng's hand and urged him to enter the room. Wan Sheng, like a puppet, followed Dali into the room, and Dali said loudly to him, "Wan Sheng is like a puppet. Sheng, today is your birthday, say something!"
Everyone came around and applauded.
At this moment, Wan Sheng regained his senses. He was slightly moved, and there were tears in his eyes, but he was immediately held back. He resisted the joy and emotion in his heart, and said 'thank you' three times in a row. It was really the first birthday in two lifetimes together.
"Thank you for helping me throw my birthday party, I'm so surprised, to be honest, I didn't even know it was my birthday!"
Everyone laughed, and many people coaxed Wan Sheng to say a few more words.
"Say something? I'm really happy, but I don't know what to say..." Wan Sheng shied away.
Someone immediately said loudly, "Wan Sheng, you should thank Dali, she told us that today is your birthday, you don't even know it, but she thought about it, how can you thank her!" Wan Sheng followed the voice to see In the past, it was little Beth.
Many people also booed along with Beth's words.
They all live nearby, and they are very familiar with Dali and know her situation. Wan Sheng lives with her. Although they seem to be ordinary friends on weekdays, if the two can get closer to everything, Dali will also have it. Relying on, you don't have to live so hard by yourself.
Some people thought of this, while others were just making a fuss. In the eyes of everyone, Wan Sheng still looked at Dali, and the two looked at each other. Dali was just about to dodge, but Wan Sheng had already spoken, " Thank you for everything you've done for me, Dally."
"It's just thank you, it's so insincere." Little Beth said again, and the others laughed.
Wan Sheng was a little embarrassed, and now there was nothing else he could do except thank him.
Then someone asked Wan Sheng to talk about the club. There are many fans here, including those who often care about the tavern, but they are the most loyal fans of Derby County, and Wan Sheng is the head coach of the team. They want to hear what Wansheng has to say about the team.
Wan Sheng raised his hand and shouted loudly, "I will make the team's performance better and better! Now that we have completed the relegation, next season, our goal will be to upgrade!"
What he said was quite encouraging.
The others also laughed heartily, but they didn't use it in the team, and it was different from facing reporters. Here is Dali's birthday PATTY for Wansheng. Everyone listened to Wansheng's encouraging words, but didn't go into it. Today The time belongs to Wansheng. Even if Wansheng said that he will lead the team to the championship next season and then run for the British Prime Minister, everyone will follow along with the booing.
Next is free time.
Everyone was walking around with wine glasses, talking and laughing. Many people came to Wansheng for a drink and chat. Most of the topics they talked about were related to the team. After all, Wansheng was the head coach and could chat with him one-on-one. There are not many opportunities for the team.
Wansheng is very popular.
He was still very surprised that Dali held a birthday party for him. At the same time, he also received a lot of birthday gifts, some from people he knew, and some people he didn't know well. He heard that it was Wansheng's birthday and bought it specially. Gift.
By the time everyone dispersed, it was already eleven o'clock in Wansheng.
Wan Sheng was slightly drunk and his head was dizzy. He didn't go to help Dali to clean up the house, he just lay back in his room and fell asleep after a while.
He had a dream.
In the dream, Dali pushed open the door in her pajamas and lay beside him. He couldn't help hugging Dali. The two quickly entered the state and went through a lot of Wushan Yunyu before falling asleep in contentment.
The sunlight poured in through the window, and his clear thinking slowly returned to his brain. Wan Sheng felt the warmth and softness in his arms, he couldn't help but move his hands, and a soft whisper came from his ear, guiding him like the sound of nature. hands continue to move.
Only then did Wan Sheng wake up slightly.
Looking at the strands of hair in front of him and feeling the comfort of the female body in his arms, he realized that last night was not a dream.
He was half-sitting and staring at the provocative little face in front of him and looked seriously.
Dally woke up.
She opened her eyes and saw Wan Sheng, her consciousness returned in a hazy way, she smiled tenderly, her eyelashes moved and her eyes rolled, she said, "Don't mind, this is my birthday present for you."
Wan Sheng burst into laughter, moving his fingers on the soft ball, "Thank you, I like it very much. So...let's have another gift."
With a cry of exclamation, the room rang out again.
