Football: The Journey of a Coach

7. Old Connections

    "He did a very good job! Aren't you?!". Robert Smith and several club managers discuss Daniel Ward on the sidelines.

"After all, this is an A-level certificate trainer!. And the coaching experience, Daniel is certainly amazing!" Someone followed and praised Daniel Ward.

"Mr Smith, do you think it's possible for us to defend it!" Someone suggested.

"I'm afraid that's impossible!" Uncle Daniel. Wayne, shake his head.

"Our club is too small. That doesn't mean it's like the youth teams of the big clubs!". He's much taller than them, staying here and Daniel Ward is really not as good as going to the Premier League youth team as an assistant coach or anything like that.

"In addition, you see, this guy is like being beaten with chicken blood. What if the team gets promoted?!. Gentlemen, that means we need some money. Where can we get this money?!". Wayne shrugged his shoulders. Soon, everyone stopped mentioning this. After all, there were too many things involved in the upgrade. Croydon has no investment value. This is a complete amateur team, and financial problems are the hardest to solve.

What you can't do with money. It is nothing to promote, and it is not a dream to go to the Premier League in the future!.

"I don't know if the team is really improving!. After all, this season couldn't be as dangerous as last season!" Said Smith.

"Is there not a friendly against Crystal Palace on the 25th?. We'll know what Daniel has done with the team!" someone interrupted.

"Haha, yeah! I hope he can surprise us!"

"Sadly the time is too short, after all we are an amateur team!".

    "This is also good for Daniel, didn't he send an email to Crystal Palace?! Maybe that game Things will benefit him after the game!". Everyone was gossiping about the friendly, but Wayne was interested in listening to him. Yes, this is an opportunity for Daniel. If he's doing a good job, he's probably favored by Neil Warnock. Isn't that nice?.

Speaking of people in the world of English football, we are mainly talking about connections, not to mention coaches like old Harry Redknapp in the Premier League, Neil Warnock this is definitely one of them, he is also very well known in English football circles, and has led many Premier League teams and low-level teams.

Of course, this old man had long led a low-level team to improve, it was no exaggeration to say that he was an expert in improving, he has won a great reputation in a low-level league and has a lot of friends.

If he approves of Daniel and gives him a job to help with his coaching career, there will be absolutely no problem. The more Wayne thought about it, the more he felt happy, and he suddenly felt that the meeting between Warnock and his nephew was really arranged by God!. If he did not find his nephew to save him, how could such a thing happen?. If it wasn't for Croydon's hometown team, if it wasn't for my nephew, it would be impossible to help!. Everything has its own will, according to Wayne his nephew will be lucky.

Wayne waits until the team's training is over before waiting for Daniel Ward.

"Uncle Wayne, why are you here?! Are you waiting for us?!". Daniel Ward was a little surprised to see Wayne. Except to see the brothers on the first day, Wayne hardly came to the club because he was busy with work.

“We watched the training for a while today, did you not see me ?!”. Wayne is also curious, and Daniel doesn't seem to know that he's here.

“Sorry, I really didn't notice!”. Daniel rubbed his head and said with embarrassment.

"Dad, I didn't notice either!" Joey also said.

"Okay, guys! You are very serious! Management came to the training ground to watch your rehearsal this afternoon!" Wayne said helplessly, "Get in the car, let's find a place to eat and talk!". The brothers got into the car, Wayne started the car, and the car drove slowly out of the parking lot.

"Danny, did you know that we're going to have a friendly on the 25th?!". Ask Wayne while driving.

"I just wanted to test the results of a recent workout!. I hope the team can make real progress. Although it's just a friendly, they are Crystal Palace, they are a Championship team, and they are very good. Good. stone test!". Daniel Ward really didn't think too much about it, he was just curious about the outcome of his first fight with the team.

Wayne nodded, "Do you have any other ideas?!".

"Other idea?!". Daniel Ward is dumbfounded. I don't have any other ideas, I just want to know.

Wayne knew that his nephew didn't seem to think too deeply.

“Do you know that this time is also an opportunity for you!”.

“My chance?!”.

“Chance Danny?!”.

Not only was Daniel Ward confused, even Joey was confused.

"Oh my God!" Wayne was instantly speechless, "Do you know Mr Neil Warnock ?!" .

   " Of course!". Daniel seemed to catch something.

"For both teams, this friendly is just to train before the season and find their status!. But for you, it's a duel with Neil Warnock!. Do you understand?!. This is between your Contest!. To obtain Mr's consent. Warnock, you think..." "

"You mean, I can take the opportunity to get to know Mr. Warnocks! Then count on him to get a job offer!". Daniel Ward interrupted Wayne with a little excitement.

Wayne laughed, "That's right!" "

Daniel doesn't have much original information about his contacts in football circles, and he remembers many coaches he's worked with. Unfortunately, Daniel is a bit boring, and he feels not very good at expanding his contacts. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been reduced to continuing Daniel Ward's recent job search worrying about this, and he has made plans if there's no news from Crystal Palace, he said, he can choose to go to London or Italy to practice finding a job and add to his knowledge. But now, there seems to be a turning point!. Uncle was right if I knew Warnock and left a deep impression on him, it might not be too difficult to find a job!

Daniel Ward, Neil Warnock, knew it and had a certain understanding. Later, he led Queen's Park Rangers and Cardiff City in the Premier League, I still have a few tricks. Wen Sheng did not know his personality, but a friendly match was a good opportunity to get to know the old man. Regardless of whether he could help or not, it was still worth a try! What if , It would be great if Warnock really liked it!.

No matter how much theory you have known, you have to put it into practice, and practice brings true knowledge!.

Wayne's reminders made Daniel understand the importance of the game. The original Daniel may have been boring the new Daniel did not, although in his original life trajectory he was an office worker, but from there he knew connection was very important.

"You should get in touch with that old coach! ". Daniel made a decision.

Initially, he paid a lot of attention to this friendly, but now that he paid more attention to it, he found a lot of information from the Crystal Palace official website and the Internet, and studied Neil Warnock's tactical habits in detail.

Time is passing, and July 25th is coming soon.

To be honest, the game is obviously not very important for both clubs, as the strongest player in the region, Crystal Palace are always looking for local boys during summer practice every year, he said, looking for confidence through abuse, and younger local players.The brothers don't care anymore, Crystal Palace are much stronger than them. No matter how much you lose, the important thing is that you can earn money from Crystal Palace!
