Godfather Of Champions

In fact, in order to celebrate the completion of the new Nottingham Forest stadium, as early as half a year ago, the Forest Club had an agreement with the English Football Association-after the completion of the new stadium, the English national team and Nottingham Forest were invited to have a friendly match. Dunn knew about this, but now he forgot after changing his status.

The match against England is just one of the celebrations. Others include the Forest Team's jersey change parade, honor exhibitions, veteran gatherings and so on. A very grand celebration.

When Dunn was still there, he would be one of the protagonists. Now that he has left the Forest team, these things have nothing to do with him, although he led the team to get more than half of the honors in the history of Nottingham Forest Club.

Now he is going to return to Nottingham, but he is not excited at all. He didn't know what the fans of Nottingham Forest would think of his departure. He has not disclosed the truth of his resignation in the media, because he does not want to completely tear his face with Evan. He was not a personal grudge, but his philosophy was incompatible. Another consideration is that this is not a big deal, this is a resignation, and there is no need to make trouble in the city.

But ordinary fans would not think so. In their hearts, Tony Dunn is the spokesperson of Nottingham Forest. Now that the spokesperson is gone, their sky will fall. Someone would not forgive him, Dunn knew himself well.

He can only smile wryly now-why did he arrange such a game in the first place? Fate can really make fun of people.

"A game against England?" John looked at Bill.

Burns’s forest bar is revived again as the new season is approaching. On weekdays, more and more people come here to drink and chat, and it looks like business is booming.

"Did you forget?" Bill looked at his old friend with some excitement. "In order to celebrate the completion of the new stadium, we and the England national team are on both sides of the match."

"Interesting." John answered non-committal.

"It's more interesting? It's so interesting!" Bill clenched his fist and waved, "I have to show Tony that guy some color!"

"Are you still complaining about that?" John thought Bill was quite boring. It's been more than a month ago, and I still miss it. "Tony must have troubles."

"I don't care what his problems are!" Bill screamed, kind of like a hysterical woman. "Damn! That was a naked betrayal!"

His statement was agreed with some people around, and they all agreed. John opened his mouth and finally decided to leave them alone. He picked up the wine glass and got up and walked to the bar, placing it in front of Kenny Burns. "One more glass, Kenny."

Burns filled him with wine in silence.

"They have forgotten the honor Tony brought to this city, although it was more than a month ago." John murmured.

"Some people like him, and naturally others hate him. This applies to the present and the future." Burns smiled like a philosopher.

"I kind of don't want to watch that game. I can't accept such a scene-people who had been supporting him unconditionally before, but now they want to scold him. I think Tony will be very sad." John is not emotional.

"So you have to go even more." Burns persuaded. "You have to let him know that someone understands him."

"Cough cough." Fat John coughed, "Actually, when I just learned this news, I was more angry than the thin man. At that time, the thin man persuaded me to come. But how did it become like this now?"

"Because of Tony's'indifference' towards Nottingham Forest, right?" Burns continued to wipe his glasses that could not be wiped for a hundred years, and said casually.

John froze for a moment, then remembered. Since Tony resigned, he has never mentioned the name "Nottingham Forest" on any occasion. It was as if this team had never appeared in his eleven years of coaching. Perhaps it was this "indifferent" attitude that angered people like Bill.

But John thought more clearly. It's not Tony's indifference, but his complicated mood. He has been coaching this team for eleven years, how could he have forgotten it? But he can't keep talking about this team after he leaves, because that will put a lot of pressure on the new coach, and it will be detrimental to the new team. He wants to use silence to minimize the huge influence he has left to this team. Those players are the ones who brought up Dunn. As long as he says something in the newspaper, even if he is no longer in Vilford, the players will definitely put his words first. In that case, Martin O’Neal’s work. How to do it

Unfortunately, not everyone understands this.

He looked back at the people who were still discussing what slogans to make to laugh at Dun En when he was discussing the game, and there were other doubts in his heart. The doubts had been in his heart for many days, and he never knew the answer.

I knew today, Tony, why did you leave? Is there any trouble that you can't solve? Eleven years of ups and downs and heart disease have passed. Why can't it pass in the twelfth year?

"Some people say that Tony's resignation was due to contradictions with Alan Adams, but I would say that they have always had contradictions? After so many years, why are they resigning now? Do those in suits Don't think about us fans?"

"It's good for him, and he just left. What about Nottingham Forest? When his grade drops, he is happy to see it?"

"I know he has difficulties, but I don't think that such difficulties are enough to support his decision to resign. Compared with other clubs, he has enough power."

"If he must leave, he can choose to wait another season. Why did he leave when we just won the Triple Crown? I can't describe my feelings at the time. It's like I was amused by someone just now. Laugh, and the same person immediately slapped me twice..."

Until now, under the news on the official website of Nottingham Forest Club about Tony Dunn and the club’s contract expiration and no renewal of the contract, fans have continued to leave messages expressing their views. For Dunn, most of them are messages that make him unpleasant.

This may be the scene that Nottingham Forest Club would like to see. They held a press conference in advance to proactively announce that they had failed to renew their contract with Dun En, and they also had the idea of ​​opposing clients and turning passive to active. In this way, everyone would obviously think that the main responsibility lies with Dunn, who has been concealing it, and Nottingham Forest is like an innocent girl who has been bullied and can only cry about what happened in this way.

Anyway, Dunn's image has always been bad. If he hadn't stood with those people, few people would like him. Before, everyone supported him because everyone was in the same trench. Now that they are not in the same trench, it is inevitable that they will not look right.

Neither Evan nor Allen wanted to recite the charge of driving the meritorious coach away. That being the case, let the man with a bad image take the burden-he wants to go. We gave him the best contract in England today, but he doesn't appreciate it and wants to go.

Such a decision makes it difficult for ordinary people to understand, but who made Tony Dunn not an ordinary person? His thoughts must be different from ordinary people, and if you use ordinary standards to quantify the words and deeds of this weird person, you will conclude that he is a lunatic. This is why Dunn is called a "madman" and "character coach". He is destined not to be understood by most people.

Nottingham Forest has arranged five warm-up matches this summer, sandwiched in the middle with England, is the first match after the official opening of the new stadium. Originally, this purely game-based game was not taken seriously. England could not train for several days for this game. They were all improvised teams. Even the lineup in the World Cup was not complete. Such a game. It is worthless to prepare for the new season.

But suddenly, because Nottingham Forest changed the head coach, because Tony Dunn became England's new head coach. This game has become highly anticipated.

Major media gathered in Clifton, southwest of Nottingham Forest, to participate in reporting on the game. Evan will surely laugh happily, because of Tony Dunn, the new stadium in Nottingham Forest has received another free publicity, and the effect is better than those publicity activities he deliberately arranged.

Martin O'Neal, the new head coach of Nottingham Forest, has his own ideas for this game. In the previous two warm-up games, the team did not perform well, with one loss and one tie, and they have not won. There have been voices of doubt in the local media. He is eager to win this game to relieve pressure. England will not play in full force, such a game can boost the team's confidence.

There is another reason O'Neal feels that he must win this game-England's head coach is Tony Dunn. This is the first head-to-head confrontation between the old and new Nottingham Forest coaches, and perhaps the last time, O'Neal must use the victory of this game to make those who miss the former forget the name of Tony Dunn.

It has been almost a month since he took over the Forest team, and he has discovered more and more how much influence Tony Dunn has on this team. Defeating Dunn's team is a good way to tell the media, tell the players-I am your boss now.

"It's just a casual game, but the boss has prepared so seriously..." O'Neal talked about tactics at the top, but the people who listened below were somewhat absent-minded.

"Seriousness is always good."

"Too serious makes you nervous."

The players are whispering.

"If the boss is there, probably more than half of them will be on the youth team, and then tell them to play casually."

Soon someone put a finger to his lips and motioned to the person who said this to shut up. "Head" is a word that no one wants to mention. They call Martin O'Neill "the boss", not "the boss." In Nottingham Forest, only a special head coach can be called "the head". Tony Dunn is such a special head coach. But in the Nottingham Forest today, Tony Dunn is the name that is forbidden to mention. No one forced them to do this, it was just an unspoken rule in the locker room.

O'Neal heard a whisper below, he raised his head and looked at the player.

The sound disappeared immediately.

O'Neill did not pursue the source of the sound, he continued to explain the tactics.

The players were quiet for a while, and then continued to gather together to bite their ears.

"Hey, what do you think... If the boss comes back, how would the fans treat him? I heard that many people resent him..."

"Aren't you complaining?"

"Me? Cough... It was a bit at the beginning, now, now I want to open... Players can transfer, why can't the coach?"

"You can barely say it."

"To shut up."

"I think... Actually I don't know what the boss thinks. Anyway, I see him again. It's very complicated. I still don't get used to the boss's style. No one in the locker room said anything loud to us. , Uncomfortable..."

"I don't care how you look at it, I'm thinking about it. I'm very happy to see him again. Maybe I will give him a hug again." It was Pepe who said this.

"Ah, do you think the boss still has a chance to come back to coach?" Bell suddenly asked this question. The sound disappeared suddenly.

Some pretended not to hear, while others looked at Bell with interesting eyes. Bell shrugged: "Well, just assume I didn't ask."

When the teammates were whispering, only Wood was not involved. He always looked at O'Neal, as if listening carefully to his tactics.

But in fact, his heart was overwhelming. He wanted to try not to listen to those discussions, but the sound got into his ears, and then evoked the memory of that person in his heart.

He drove himself home and persuaded him to go to school in the car, so childishly like a child than himself. The first time he met his mother, it aroused a sense of crisis in his heart, as if one day he would lose his mother. When he didn't have any hope, he opened a window for himself, leaving a note for him to come to him. When he experienced the first failure, he planned to give up, and again he grabbed his collar and told him not to give up, not to admit defeat, otherwise he would only be a small gangster in his life...

If someone wants to write a biography of George Wood, I'm afraid that two-thirds of the content is indispensable for that person's name. That person is just his coach, but he is better than his father in his heart. Wood hadn't enjoyed a day of paternal love, but he had vaguely realized it from Tony Dunn.

He is not very clear why that person wants to leave, because that person never allows others to touch his inner world. Wood has to stay in the forest team. He has to prove that the person's departure was wrong, or he is protecting something.

Just thinking about it, he didn't even listen to what the head coach said just now. Anyway, his task must remain the same-intercept the opponent's attack, erect a midfield barrier, protect his teammates, and participate in the attack if necessary.

O'Neal's use of him is no different from Dunn. It can not be said that O'Neal has no level, but Dunn has almost played Wood's role to the extreme. If you want to change, you can only make Wood give up defense completely and focus on offense. But no coach would agree to do this, because Wood's defensive talent is the biggest waste, and waste is shameful.

O'Neal looked at Wood who listened carefully to his speech, and felt a little relieved. At least the captain performed very well, as long as the captain is still on his side, the locker room will not be too messy.

In fact, the person he was most worried about at first was George Wood. The outside world knew about the relationship between Wood and Dunn. Some media described them as "father and son." He was worried that Dunn would leave, and Wood would leave with the transfer. In that case, the future of the team will be dim.

Fortunately, Wood did not leave and signed a new contract with the club.

As long as Wood is there, O'Neill doesn't care about others leaving or staying.

After talking about tactics, O'Neal intends to say something else.

"This game, I hope to see a victory."

After he finished speaking, there was silence below. The players finally set their sights on him.

There are any meanings in these eyes. O'Neal looked at them at each other, "I know this is an unimportant exhibition game. But I hope you understand one thing-no matter what kind of game, you must prepare for victory. You are a champion team, It’s a team pursuing victory. That’s it."

Everyone looked back again.

They murmured in their hearts: Why are they so similar to those the boss said... (To be continued, if you want to know what is going on, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
