Vol 2 Chapter 119: Bruce's surprise

In the FA Cup 32, Derby County's opponent is Birmingham. ! Easy! Look! Little! Say! After returning from West Bromwich, Wan Sheng began to prepare for the game.
The game was only two days later, and there was no time to find a targeted response. Fortunately, the game was played at the Pride Stadium, and Birmingham is only a relegation team for the Premier League. Even if the game is played head-to-head, Derby County has a winning percentage. Not small.
Wan Sheng has full confidence in the fans.
Many players have rested for a round. This scene is well-prepared for Birmingham, especially the home game. In order to relegate, Birmingham put almost all their energy into the league. They may even give up the FA Cup.
Wan Sheng will not make the mistake of carelessness. No matter whether Birmingham will do his best to play, the team must definitely do their best to play. Only in this way can the victory be guaranteed as much as possible.
...
Birmingham's attitude towards the FA Cup is uncertain, but this team still has some ties to Derbyshire.
When it comes to Birmingham, they have to mention their female CEO, Brady, who has the nickname "-lady" in English football.
Brady was born in London. His father is an Irish tycoon and his mother is an authentic Italian housewife.
In 1993, when she was only 23 years old, she was elected as the executive director of the Birmingham Club (then in the British League), which can be described as the ancestor of the British football fans.
A young girl takes on this important task. It is conceivable that the outside world is critical and ironic to her. Even the players only care about her yellow jokes. When he first met with the team when he took office, a player deliberately molested her, "Hey, your shirt is transparent, I am watching your mm."
Brady responded without changing his face, "No problem, you don't have to worry about it anymore. When I sell you to the D-level team Crewe, you won't see it."
It didn't take long for this player to be sold.
The second act of her fight against men is on a TV show. Brady is a British celebrity, serving as a judge in a program called "Apprentice", to grasp whether young talents are qualified for a certain position. , The audience liked her very much.
Sky TV host Richard Kens and a guest who commented on the Wolves and Liverpool game Andy Gray are angry at the injustice of the sideline, saying that Kens opened the topic and talked about Brady, "Did you read today's newspaper? Brady was even blaming sexism. Oh my god, look at her fat body ..."
The next day, Sky TV dismissed the two at the same time.
There is no official reason, everyone knows that offenders called the end of the "first woman" in English football.
"First Lady (-lady)" is not limited to football. Brady has an autobiography, two novels and a book guide for women to run the business, called "Participate and Win". Columnist of The Sun and consultant for several companies.
Using football women to describe her is obviously a bit narrow.
Her initial job was to sell advertisements. Was dug into the construction company by David Sullivan, one of the bosses of West Ham United.
The media disclosed that Brady suggested that the company acquire Birmingham, after the successful acquisition. Brady served as the executive director of the club. When she became an executive director, almost no one was optimistic about her. The media questioned her remarks everywhere. But Brady took the team to the Premier League in a few years.
Brady is only 33 years old, but her experience can write a legendary novel-a woman, from scratch to become the CEO of the League One club. Then led the team from the British second to the Premier League, and became the first person in Birmingham management.
During this period, Brady only spent more than ten years.
Wan Sheng had to give a thumbs up after knowing the experience of the female chairman. In reality, such a successful person is really a rare place, but Brady did it, but Wan Sheng understands this, not because of appreciation and worship Brady, on the contrary, listened to gossip.
In fact, the entire Derby County team knows Brady.
Before playing against Birmingham, they also used Brady to tease Peschi Solido, because Peschi Solido was Brady's husband.
...
Before the game, there was a lot of gossip about the two teams in the media.
Birmingham female CEO Brady talked about the game in an interview, and she seems to be well-established. She jokingly stated that her job was to take care of Paul Peschidoldo, "I want to prevent him from sleeping all night before the game."
Brady said, "I'm sure Peschi Solido also longed for us to meet. He used to play for Birmingham and had a good relationship with head coach Bruce. This is not the first time he has encountered Birmingham. He has worked in Stoke and West Bromwich, Fulham and Sheffield have met Birmingham, but this is the first time in the cup. "
When asked which of the parents the children support, Brady said, "I think they will want their dad to win because they can see their dad playing on the court, which is better than a club like mine. There are more people in administrative work. "
In this regard, Peschi Lido was very upset, because his teammates all talked about this matter, so he sighed in the interview before the game, "I really hope that the coach will not let me play, so I will not be too embarrassed. , The game will not be related to me. "
In fact, Wan Sheng's starting list has his name.
Wan Sheng didn't consider Peski Solido's relationship with Birmingham before he made his debut. Bolton Reit has not recovered from injury. The team's real main striker is only Cahill, Ian Taylor is after all. Not so good, Wan Sheng prefers to use him as a substitute for the critically threatened type, rather than starting the game to fight.
So when arranging the lineup of the two strikers, Peschi Lido is the best choice.
...
Before the game, Birmingham coach Bruce was also considering the game.
Bruce is also a legend in English football. He was rejected by clubs such as Newcastle and Bolton when he was too young, and once had to work in a shipyard. Fortunately, at the age of 17, he was appreciated by Gunningham to continue his work. Player's dream, he then transferred to Norwich and performed well.
In the winter of 1989, Bruce came to Manchester United from Norwich with a record of 875,000 pounds at the time of the British defender at the time. After that, he continued to defend Manchester United for the past 10 years and formed the Manchester United Defense Steel Great Wall with Paleste . The two cooperated in a tacit understanding and were technically complementary. They became the cornerstone of the Ferguson dynasty.
Bruce kicked the game tough, followed the saf in the Quartet, and made a deadly exploit. In addition to his excellent defense, Bruce has strong assists and often uses corner kicks to help the team score. He is also a penalty shooter and scored 19 goals in the 90/91 season. For a central defender. This is a miracle, his goal rate is not worse than the forward.
Bruce's natural leadership ability made him gloriously wear the captain's armband after Brian Robson retired. At the same time, he was also the first Manchester United captain who was not selected for the England national team after Settle.
But the years are not forgiving. As this age increases, Bruce has to make way for the newcomers. In 1996, Bruce joined Birmingham and withdrew from the historical stage of Dream Theater.
Later, Bruce played for different clubs as a player and head coach. Continue his greenery career, and then go back to Birmingham to take over the team coach.
For such a coach who has a legendary player experience, coaching the team is equivalent to an expert job. He and Brady cooperate to lead Birmingham. It made the team progress very fast and advanced to the Premier League in a few years.
Although Birmingham's record in the Premier League is very general, but think of them as a third-tier league team a few years ago, you know the ability of Bruce.
Actually. Bruce is a very 'realistic' coach.
His coaching philosophy is to make the team get the best possible results, and the two years after the promotion to the Premier League, the most basic guarantee is to be able to relegate to success.
So it's the same as Wan Sheng thought. Birmingham's focus is indeed on the league.
But this does not mean that Bruce will give up the FA Cup, but he will not be too entangled in the victory and defeat and let the team play normally. As for the step in the FA Cup, he does not care much.
But Bruce still wanted to fight for this game.
Derbyshire, the top of the League One, has just beaten Tottenham Hotspur away. Although it sounds very strong, it is still only a League One team. Maybe the League One team can sometimes play well and beat Premier League teams, but they can't always be like this. Even a strong team can't guarantee victory, let alone a Premier League team.
In short, Bruce still wants to win.
Before he got the big list of Derbyshire before the game, he saw that some famous players were on the list, so he knew that Derbyshire was also very concerned about the game, and they would definitely play with the full lineup.
Even so, Bruce felt that Birmingham had a good chance.
Even if it is an away game, even if all opponents start, but Birmingham's strength is not worse than Derby County, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses, Bruce is more willing to believe that his team is stronger.
...
Before the game, the media also reported on the game.
In addition to gossip news, those media that pay attention to Derbyshire, after knowing the big list of Derbyshire, also have the same idea as Bruce-Derbyshire must be sending all the main players to play.
In contrast to the West Bromwich match, Derby County only played in a semi-replacement lineup, which puzzled the media-is it difficult to shift the focus of Mori to County to the FA Cup?
Are they not afraid of affecting the results of the league! ?
The media was puzzled about this, but they did n’t continue to discuss anything. They were beaten too many times, and they also learned their lesson. They planned to continue to look at it again.
In many media observations, the match between the two teams began.
Birmingham coach Bruce feels that his team is stronger. The reason why he thinks this is very simple, that is, Derbyshire is a Premier League team, but the Premier League and the Premier League are one level apart. Birmingham is relatively easy to relegate in the Premier League. Natural strength is stronger than the first team.
But the game scene did not reflect this.
From the beginning of the game, Derbyshire had a repressive advantage over Birmingham. Bruce saw this situation a little puzzled. Before that, he had not studied Derbyshire too deeply, but he did not want to come to the First Division. Suppress Birmingham's strength.
But this is the situation ...
Birmingham was completely suppressed ten minutes before the start of the game. Their offense was passive, the defense appeared to be frequent loopholes, and Derby County was very threatening.
This is what Bruce sees ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is also seen by everyone in the audience.
Bruce felt incredible. What did he see? It is the team's exquisite cooperation and smooth, full-attack and full-defense football. He has only seen such football in the games of Arsenal and Tottenham.
Now a League One team has played the same smooth offense, but also suppressed his Birmingham for a while.
Soon he had no time to think about it.
In the seventeenth minute of the game, Derby County scored a goal. This was Peschi Solido ’s pick pass from the right side of the penalty area. This pass gave Cahill a chance to insert the latter, which directly Running over to the top and sending the ball into the goal of Birmingham.
1: 0.
Seeing this goal, Bruce felt even more surprised. He understood why Derby County could beat Tottenham on the road. (To be continued ...)
