Godfather Of Champions

The Sun decided to disclose the contradiction between Dunn and Wood in order to seize the opportunity in the increasingly fierce news war. The Stamford Bridge media are more concerned about whether their Terry can keep the captain's armband of the England national team.

By convention, every new head coach will announce the captain when the team is officially assembled. Some coaches will choose to continue the captain and vice captain of the previous national team in order to stabilize the team, but many coaches will re-select the captain they prefer or think that they are more suitable.

For example, after Beckham stepped down, John Terry became the captain of the England team and Gerrard became the deputy captain.

Liverpool’s media are also concerned about the issue of the captain’s armband. They hope that Dunn can rightward Gerrard.

Local media in Nottingham Forest are cheering for George Wood.

In fact, in terms of qualifications and influence, Wood is the least dominant candidate. Most neutral media believe that Terry and Gerrard should continue to serve as team captains and vice captains. After all, if Dunn wants to keep his team stable, then the sensitive position of captain should not be changed.

In fact, Dunn is indeed very cautious about the captain issue. Terry and Gerrard are both very influential figures in English football. If you are not careful, you may go wrong.

He decided to talk to Terry and Gerrard.

Terry and Gerrard both expressed their wish to continue to be team captain during their conversation. They believed that being able to wear the national team's captain's armband is a great honor.

Dunn understands this idea, but he can't support it.

Because he will be completely overthrown and rebuilt after he takes office, the previous England national team's set can not be used-including the captain.

In other words, in the national team, it's time to change the dynasty.

Dunn wants to re-establish an order, so changing the captain is the first step.

He told the two of his ideas and frankly said that they are a bit old and he needs someone who can be the captain of the team for a long time.

Both Terry and Gerrard knew what the new head coach was going to do.

Being removed from the captain's armband will definitely make them dissatisfied. However, in England, the long-standing tradition is that the coach is the biggest. No one dares to confront the coach, even in the national team. It is often seen that the players are closely united around the head coach, against the English Football Association.

If he were to change to another country, Dunn’s series of actions would have caused him to fall into the quagmire of repeated classes, not to mention any leading achievements, let alone coaching the national team.

Dunn hopes that Terry and Gerrard, as veteran national team players, can play a role model for the stability of the team.

I'm all here, what can I do if I don't accept it? Withdraw from the national team in anger? Although it is not a few years since they said goodbye to the national team in terms of age, it is clear that neither of them wants to leave in this disgraceful way. Tony Dunn does have the ability to win the championship, and the England national team has achieved nothing for many years. They also hope to follow the coach who is bound to the championship trophy and make a long-cherished wish.

Having won twelve championship trophies in eleven years, Tony Dunn is indeed qualified to be strong in front of them.

So both said that they would obey the head coach's arrangement.

The greatest resistance was settled, and Dunn let out a sigh of relief.

If it wasn't for the stability of the team, he wouldn't be so troublesome. It doesn't matter how the media explain him, as long as the players understand him and know what is going on.

The training session in the afternoon was the first training session in which all the players were present in England. Before the training began, Dunn would announce the team's new captain and vice captain.

Terry and Gerrard’s expressions were a bit abnormal, their eyes flickering as if hiding from others. They already knew in advance that the captain's armband could not be kept.

George Wood, who didn't know anything about it, was summoned by the assistant coach after finishing the warm-up, and waited for Dunn to appear on the field.

The sun was shining this afternoon, and Dunn appeared wearing his pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses.

"Good afternoon, guys. I hope you all had a good nap. Because the training in the afternoon is not easy." Dunn raised his hand to greet everyone, and then he walked into the crowd and stood in the middle of the circle.

"As usual, we have to announce the candidates for the captain and deputy captain of the new national team."

The Chelsea players turned to look at Terry, Liverpool's looked at Gerrard, and the Forest team naturally looked at Wood.

The players of other clubs are not very interested in this, anyway, they will definitely not fall into their heads. Everyone acquiesces that these three are most qualified to be captains. Terry is the old captain of England. He has been captain for eight years since 2006, and his achievements are in everyone's eyes. Gerrard has always been the deputy captain. He wears the captain's armband when Terry is absent. He is recognized as the most leading English player. Liverpool media has always believed that he is more qualified to be captain. George Wood is the captain of the most successful team in England in recent years. He is also recognized as the most manly English player and a model for all English professional players.

However, George Wood's advantage is that he is younger, twenty-eight this year, which is the golden age.

Dunn looked at everyone's reactions and they were all in his expectation. If he does not find Terry and Gerrard at first, then he will take the risk after the results are announced. It's okay now, he knows that two people are supporting him, and he has no fear.

"George Wood and John Terry will serve as the team's captain and vice captain." Dunn was very simple but very clear to throw out the candidates.

There was a small commotion in the team. Disappointment was clearly on the faces of the Liverpool people, and the Chelsea camp was also a little surprised, because their captain turned out to be a deputy captain.

It was the first round of applause from the Nottingham Forest to congratulate the new captain.

Then no matter what everyone thinks at this moment, everyone applauded and congratulated George Wood and John Terry.

Gerrard was a little lost because he didn't even keep the deputy captain. But who made him the oldest of these three? He is thirty-four years old, and Terry will not be thirty-four until the end of the year. Central defenders are always prone to play longer than midfielders, even if they can't run, the coach still hopes to rely on the experience of an old central defender. See how long has Cannavaro played in Italy? At the age of thirty-seven, still representing Italy in the World Cup in South Africa! And it's really hard for every team's midfielder to find a veteran over thirty-five years old.

Gerrard tried to maintain his form, but didn't want to be squeezed out of the national team prematurely. Because he knows that there are a large group of good players behind him, and George Wood is one of them.

To be honest, Gerrard is not jealous of Wood getting the captain's armband. It is normal for two people to have a feeling of "comprehension" in their years of Premier League confrontation, not to mention that Wood is indeed excellent.

It was Wood himself who was surprised. There was a rare change in his expression on his face-he opened his mouth with wide eyes, looking at Dun En in disbelief.

Dunn looked at him with a smile. It was the first time he saw Wood's true emotions after so long, even if it was just a surprise. He is very happy.

"George." He called Wood's name, motioned him to come forward to accept the captain's armband.

Wood walked out of the crowd a little stupidly, but he hadn't reacted yet. The Forest players slapped their hands in the back, and then Cha whistled and cheered.

Dunn pulled Wood to his side and said to the players: "I must explain to you why I chose George. In the summer transfer period that just passed, there were the most rumors about George Wood's transfer in England. The Forest team has fallen into a quagmire, and their standard bearers are being seduced by countless giants. But in the end we saw that George chose to stay in the Forest team and proved with practical actions that there is still'loyalty' in today's football."

Speaking of those things about Nottingham Forest, Dunn now has a calm tone as if talking about a team that has nothing to do with him.

"As a player who has been the captain of Nottingham Forest for seven years, I think he is fully capable and qualified to be the captain of England. I am very grateful to John and Stephen for all their contributions and understanding of this decision." He looked at Te Li and Gerrard. So Chelsea and Liverpool players understand that Dunn has dealt with them alone.

The two people laughed forcefully. The captain’s armband was lifted in this way. Who made Wood and Dunn get along the longest? Who made Dunn be optimistic about Wood? People say that Tony Dunn is George Wood's father, and his father became the head coach of the national team. How could his son not receive special treatment?

In fact, Dunn's doing this is tantamount to putting pressure on Wood-everyone knows the close relationship between him and himself, even if there are recent rumors that the two are in conflict. He couldn't stop the outside world from speculating that Wood became the team leader of the Three Lions because of his special concern.

But Dunn believes that Wood’s ability to withstand pressure is not much less pressure in Nottingham Forest than in England. And Wood is also called "St. George" by English fans. These are conditions that are conducive to Wood being captain.

Dunn does not want to deny his plan to build the New England team with Wood as the core. It is only the first step for George Wood to be the new captain. He will gradually implement these plans in the next games. Those familiar faces in the past may fade out slowly, and the time for a new generation has arrived.

He wants to build an England team completely his own, clean up the traces left by his predecessor, and let this team listen to him completely and play for him. Only in this way can he have the confidence to win the European Cup.

After explaining the reason, Dunn personally put the captain's armband on Wood, and then patted his left arm wearing the armband.

"But I remind you, George. This armband is not permanent. Once your performance fails to meet my requirements and you can't take on the responsibility of a captain, I will take it off without hesitation." He pointed out Wearing an armband.

Wood did not answer him.

"Start training!"

Dunn gave the stage to the assistant coach and other coaches. He retreated to the sidelines.

The forest teammates came forward to congratulate Wood, and Wood's response was plain. Terry and Gerrard also came forward to congratulate him, so the others followed up and patted Wood on the shoulder and head. The atmosphere looks very harmonious.

Dunn knew that this was an arduous challenge for himself and Wood.

Wood was the captain of the Forest team, thanks to Albertini's words and deeds, and his attention, which gradually established the fact that he was the captain of the Forest team. After long-term contact with the teammates, they were also infected by Wood's taciturn but action-oriented style, and sincerely accepted the captain.

The situation for England is different. As the national team, these people are improvised, it is impossible for them to know each other for a long time. In the past, Wood’s most personal impression in the national team was that he was not so gregarious and reticent. Such a person became the captain of the national team, and without any over-preparation, he was forcibly pushed to the position by Dunn. In the future, he will need to demonstrate that he is worthy of the captain with a better performance than ever.

But it seems that Wood is not as happy as others thought... He has been accepting congratulations from his teammates with a blank face.

The training mood afterwards was not high.

However, Dunn still noticed one thing-he always completed every training subject with the most earnest and hardest work, and he did better than ever in the forest team.

Dunn raised his mouth.

※※※

After the training in the afternoon, Dunn stood in the crowd, analyzed the gains and shortcomings of the day's training, praised and criticized some people.

Then the team disbanded, but he asked Wood to stay alone.

This seems to be a normal move. The new head coach and the new captain must communicate in order to manage the team.

But Wood himself knows why Dunn left him alone—this is entirely his instinct.

After everyone was gone, Kearney training base fell into twilight. The woods in the distance swayed gently in the breeze, slowly bringing the coolness and lowering the high temperature here.

People's mood seems to become more comfortable with the coolness of the time.

The training ground is very quiet, only a few birds sing in the woods in the distance.

Wood stood in the arena and Dunn stood outside, the two were about 20 meters apart.

Dunn took a step forward, and Wood took a step back.

Dunn thought it was a coincidence at first, so he stopped and continued to move forward, one step, two steps, three steps.

Wood also quickly stepped back, one step, two steps, three steps.

Dunn saw the clue, he stopped and opened his hands and asked loudly, "Are we homosexual repulsion?"

Wood stood on the training ground in the twilight, silent.

Dunn took a few steps quickly, and Wood took a few steps back. Dunn started to run, and Wood turned and fled.

The two chased on the empty training ground. It looks like a life-and-death chase on the African savannah. It stands to reason that the prey should be in front and the hunter in the back. But this scene looks like the prey is chasing the hunter... the rabbit is panting, and the cheetah looks back at leisure to see how far away the opponent is from him.

After only half a court, Dunn, who was 46 years old, couldn't hold on and lost. He pressed his knees with both hands, leaned down and gasped for breath.

Seeing that he was not chasing, Wood stopped and looked far away.

Dunn stood up suddenly, and Wood thought he was going to chase again, so he planned to run sideways. Unexpectedly, Tang En just cursed: "Run you uncle!!!"
