Football: The Journey of a Coach

46. Recuperation

The win against Peterborough 2-0 was enough for Crsytal Palace to solidify its position in the top five, money goals scored by new signings Deco and overlap Nathan Clyne.

As the league entered its final January, Daniel decided to settle the players for two days.

After a two-day break, the team returned to training, everyone's mental outlook improved greatly. Daniel is satisfied with this.

Training content has also been adjusted. Team short feed training, then front field movement training began to improve.

For the beginning of training, Daniel's training focus is always on the counter-attack, guiding the players' defensive positions. Supporting positions, charging, and running without the ball in attack.

The current changes can make the players clearly feel that Daniel will now focus on attacking.

The transfer window of the league's winter is also nearing an end, and many have now entered a period of stability.

According to previous estimates, experts thought Crsytal Palace would not change much in this Transfer Exchange. In the end they were wrong, Crsytal Palace were the most active among the other championship teams.

With Victor Moses leaving for Everton, followed by Nick Corle, then D. Dunn, C. David, and C. Hills.

Then came Deco, Wilfred Bony, Sol Bamba. Crsytal Palace are still eyeing Everton's Phil Neville.

With the departure of five players and the entry of three players, Crsytal Palace deserve to be called the most active team in the January transfer market.

Of course, when Daniel took over the team, he had already adjusted his position. After the period, if the starting lineup of the team is satisfactory, he will not change it much. But the reality is different, Warnock heritage players judged less to realize his ambition towards the English premier league.

Too bad the players who have to leave, they felt they did not have enough strength to help raise Crsytal Palace.

After the training was over, Daniel gathered the players to talk to them.

"I don't know how your vacation?!" Daniel asked everyone with a smile, and without waiting for everyone's answer, he continued by saying.

"By the way, our coaching staff's vacation was a waste!" Everyone laughs.

"A two-day vacation is definitely not enough for you to relax! But I can't help it! Now that we are back, we will continue to work hard for this team! The winter window has passed, and our team is stable!. Zaha, your Joe Allen who has been transferred from the youth team will stay in the first team for a long time starting today, and half of us have not been introduced in the winter window, and the team needs you to contribute !"

"By the way, you're all having fun on the junior team, but it's another matter of being in the first team! You have to study hard when you get here, you are far from being a real player. This is a critical time for you, I hope you work hard here to achieve your dreams!"

Zaha and the other youngster nodded in despair.

"As for the players from the first team, let me open the roof window and speak frankly. Maybe some of you want to leave, but now the window has almost closed, and everything is not realistic. Because you live, you can work quietly. After all, you are a professional player, and the salary you must have is already paid.

Our team is now in a very critical time. I hope each of you can demonstrate your professional abilities. Passion, work hard!.

" force! I need to look at your attitude and status, and I'll just pick the right person to play with!" Daniel gradually became serious.

"The result against Peterborough has been good. I always insist on recognizing our opponents. I hope through this holiday you have a clear picture of the league and our current situation!

" want to say! The outside media are watching our jokes, I think we have to fight back at the weekend! Everyone starts to get ready! Disperse!" Back in the dressing room, the players are talking

"Don't worry about that ?!" Derry laughing. He is a very relaxed captain, so the players in the team have a good relationship with him.

Derry listened as he took off his shoes, smiled and said nothing.

Placing the sneakers on the ground, Derry clapped and called everyone, "Hey, guys!" "

Have you seen the standings?!"

 Everyone looked at each other, Julian Speroni said: "It's over! Hey, I said Sean, what do you want to say?!"

"Did you find the facts?!" Derry was calm, with a mysterious smile on his face.

“What fact?!”

“In fact, we are now only nine points away from Newcastle United. ”

When he said this, everyone suddenly understood what Derry was trying to say.

" Imagine only nine points, if we win three games. Our ranking will be in the top two. "

 To be honest, the big guys were surprised by Derry's bold conjecture.

"Hehe, what?! You seem so scared! You think I'm daydreaming, right?!". Sean Derry chuckled and said with a relaxed smile. That smile always made everyone feel a little mocking.

At the start of the first half when Warnock led the team, Crystal Palace got a good result back then. After Daniel took the lead, although it was only one month, the new coach was able to maintain the good rank of Crsytal Palace, as well as penetrate the quarter-finals of the league cup.

"I support! Guys guys! Work hard! That's the Premier League!" Vardy could not hold back for a long time. The Premier League is his dream.

When Speroni finished talking, he couldn't wait to jump out and encourage her. The boy was a man who dared to think and act, during this period of time, he scored consecutive goals, earning his team respect.

"Honestly, don't you think Daniel underestimated us?! He always talks about not being able to go both ways. I think we can do more! We can do better! "Lawrence added.

Everyone started talking about the situation, but gradually the big guys thought that this dream was worth pursuing, very possible to achieve.

"Silence, calm! Guys guys! I think this must be a very interesting experience, this experience is enough to ruin our lives! I want to ask, are you ready?!" Ask Derry seriously.

"Be prepared! Captain!"

"Let's do it!".

No one objected, they expressed their determination in unison, and a few dumbfounded boys shouted in excitement.

"Good job!" Derry gave a thumbs up.

"But this is a problem inside the dressing room, and no one should be spreading it out!. We will surprise everyone then!". Everyone's heart was moved completely by Derry
