Godfather Of Champions

England's three-game winning streak in the qualifiers greatly encouraged the confidence of the English fans, and now they begin to feel that the media's advocacy of "this is the strongest England national team in history" is finally credible.

Especially the 4-2 away victory over Serbia, showing the solid offensive power of this England team.

England have won consecutive big scores, but the happiest person is not the fans, the media, or even Tony Dunn himself. The happiest person is the FA CEO Sean Barclay who called him.

Although Dunn was not his first target, it was also the candidate he found. His good grades means that he has a good eye and a bead. In addition, since Tony Dunn took office, in addition to having trouble with the media on the captain issue, his big mouth has not spit out everywhere, making Barclays who worried about it breathe out.

To be honest, after choosing Dunn to be England's head coach, for a while, he was really worried that after getting up in the morning, he would find that his home was blocked by countless media. These people came to ask him about Tony Tang. What do you think of XX's remarks?

If this happens every day, it is not a wonderful experience.

It's good now. Dunn focuses on the work of the team, rarely fights against people in the media, and does not comment on the work of UEFA or FIFA.

Perhaps the reason why Dunn is so quiet is his recent results, right? Once the grades are bad, who knows what shocking things that crazy dog ​​will do...

Tony Dunn is proud of his work as the head coach of the England national team. Even UEFA’s official website is dedicated to re-introducing the young "champion godfather" with an article. Before he had no experience in coaching the national team, he was questioned by some experts. Now those doubts have disappeared.

But the more he gains momentum, the more fans in Nottingham Forest will miss him.

August and September can be regarded as the honeymoon period between Flores and Nottingham Forest. He led the team to five wins, one draw and one loss in seven rounds of the league, ranking third.

Seeing the wind, the media advocated that Flores is the new hope of Nottingham Forest. Under the leadership of the Spaniard, the Forest team will surely return to glory. To prove that they are not talking nonsense, they also cited many examples. One of them is quite nonsensical-Flores is a "madman coach" in Spain, similar to Tony Dunn's personality. Dunn of the same character can succeed in Nottingham Forest, why can't Flores?

But now the good luck ends.

Before England and Serbia played, Nottingham Forest lost two consecutive rounds under the leadership of Flores. After the national team game ended, the league reopened, and the forest team drew with the "underdog" Middlesbrough. They did not achieve a victory throughout October.

This is not over. After entering November, Flores's team finally defeated Everton, but injured Bentley. Bentley was seriously injured and left the game during the game. Bad news came from the hospital the next day. He will truce for at least three months.

Bentley was seriously injured. As the captain, George Wood was sent off with a red card in the game against Manchester United and suspended for two games. The match against Manchester United was highly anticipated, but the two sides were full of gunpowder. Mourinho is energized as soon as he hits the Forest, and Flores is unwilling to lose to Mourinho, who is also a character coach.

The game started in a fierce body collision from the first minute.

Dunn also visited Old Trafford to watch the match, which he called the focus of the "rugby match".

Mork, who replaced Bentley's starter, was violated twice in the opening ten minutes, which aroused the anger of the Forest team players.

In the subsequent game, the referee became the protagonist. He showed a total of 13 yellow cards and two red cards.

Nottingham Forest won 7:6 on the number of yellow cards, and the two sides drew a tie on the statistics of the red card. George Wood and Anderson each received a red card and were sent off.

In the end, Manchester United defeated the Forest team 2-1 at home with a somewhat controversial penalty kick. Back to the top of the standings. Nottingham Forest dropped to seventh.

After the game, the commentator said: "Flores is in a big trouble."

Tony Dunn would agree with him.

He was originally looking at the players for the next game against Denmark, but both sides played poorly in this game. Nottingham Forest was even worse. The players he wanted to investigate did not perform what they should have. Come level. This annoyed him. Originally, he planned to use the lineup he had in the previous game against Serbia, but now it seems that he may have to be forced to make adjustments.

Bentley was badly injured and bid farewell to the national team, Wayne Rooney was revealed to be hitting people in a bar. Recently, he was entangled in the media and lawsuits. Michael Carrick was injured in the game. Manchester United does not want the national team. He was transferred to the game against Denmark because it would aggravate his injury.

The head coach of the national team looks more relaxed than the club coach, because he can choose the right player from the entire country without considering the transfer fee. But there are not many players in a country who can meet Dunn's needs, especially in some positions. In a country where professional football is highly developed like England, no more than forty people can qualify for the national team.

The need to change any main force position is a headache for Dunn.

So Dunn must be cursing Mourinho and Flores now.

November 17, Wednesday, the national team international competition day.

England returned to home again after two away games and ushered in the group's second Danish team at the New Wembley Stadium.

The 26-year-old Nicholas Bendtner is Denmark's number one star. A few days before the game, he was repeatedly interviewed by the media trying to ask him what he thinks of Dunn. He refused to answer all of these questions. For him, Nottingham Forest and Tony Dunn are already in the past.

Today, he also left the hopeless Manchester City in the summer to join Everton. Although this is still a team that does not have much hope of winning, at least this team has the desire to impact honor. He has found the joy of playing in this team again.

Dunn did not use Bendtner to provoke a psychological war. The former genius kid is one of the biggest regrets of his coaching career, but now it has already faded.

He is a coach who has won the Triple Crown. What else can't be seen?

Therefore, this game is an ordinary qualifier for him, and it is impossible for the media to hype it through the grievances between him and Bendtner.

If they speculate that this is a battle for the top name of the group, he will echo a few words.

This is indeed a battle for the top spot in the group. Denmark and England have the same points, with three wins and nine points. However, Denmark's goal difference and goals are less than that of England, so they are temporarily second.

In fact, the first in the group is just a fight for face, as long as the final ranking is in the top two of the group, you can directly advance to the finals. Even if it is third, as long as it is third in the best group, there is a chance to go to Spain.

The 2016 European Cup expansion, the number of teams allowed to participate increased from 16 to 24, which gave hope to many mid-level European teams. This qualifier is also divided into ten groups. Except for England, which is a group of seven teams, the other nine groups are five teams, and the first two teams of each group directly advance. Then the six best-performing third teams in the group played two home and away playoffs and decided the remaining three teams to Spain.

England's draw was good, and qualifying from the group is not a problem. But qualifying as the first in the group is more in line with the psychological requirements of the FA, and it also makes the English fans feel bright.

Dunn made some adjustments to the England lineup for this game. Walcott appeared in the forward position on the right, James Milner on the left, and Gerrard and George Wood in the middle. Mitchell started at the forward line, while Rooney disappeared from the starting lineup. His replacement was Abang Raho.

Leighton Barnes and Joe Matoke did not start at the left back. The starter was Lescott, who can play both at the center and at the left.

The right back is Glen Johnson, who has not appeared in the national team for some time.

In the press box, media from all over England gathered to discuss Dunn’s starting list.

"Since he took office, his lineup has not been fixed!"

"It's normal. He just took over. How many games did the team play?"

"He is trying to find the feeling of the Forest team?"

"In fact, it's not just Tony, I'm still dissatisfied with England's candidates in several positions, such as right back..."

"Under such circumstances, he can lead the team to three consecutive victories, which is amazing."

"Denmark is not Serbia. They are absolutely capable of causing trouble on our home court. I think Don's old man has changed so much, which is not conducive to results."

The reason why reporters can chat in the stands leisurely is because the game is not beautiful.

The game played at Wembley was dull. The Danish team’s away tactics were very conservative, and England had no better way to face such a dense defense.

And Dunn didn't have much interest in competing with Denmark for the first place in the group, as long as he could qualify for his place.

It's about to face the Christmas Devil schedule in the league, and the players also seem weak, for fear of injury. It's only natural that this game is so unbelievable.

In the end, the "team title battle" that was hyped by the media before the game ended in a boring 0:0. Those Asian fans who were waiting to stay up late in front of the TV to watch the game must be disappointed. But who told Tony Dunn not to serve them?

Although the result was a 0:0 level and the scene was dull, Dunn was still very satisfied. In the press conference after the game, he praised the performance of the Danish team. In fact, the performance of the Danish team was nothing to praise. He also praised his team's performance, which sounds more like opening your eyes and telling lies. The poor performance of the England team can be seen as long as it is not a brain-dead with a problematic IQ. Dunn's doing this is just not to put too much pressure on the players.

The game with Denmark was over and the two teams shared the same points. England continued to rely on goal difference to beat Denmark and ranked first in the group. Holding the first place in the group, England's fans and the media were not too embarrassed by Dunn.

After this game, the European Cup qualifiers will not restart until April next year. In the meantime, in addition to playing in the warm-up match, Dunn was flying around and paying attention to the performance of the players on the big list.

This is the most troublesome point for him-unlike in the club team, he can observe the state of each player at close range every day. The players of the national team are scattered all over the place, and the state cannot be maintained all the time, so he needs to be a "trapeze" so that he can keep abreast of the latest state of those international players.

The most hateful thing is that there is no "winter break" in the Premier League. If you are the head coach of other national teams, you will have more than one week off before and after Christmas. He can spend Christmas with his wife. But in the Premier League, the more events are in this situation, the more frequent the competition, and he can only fly around, keeping his feet on the ground all day long.

"Perhaps I should buy a private jet better..." Dunn complained.

"You should be thankful that you don't have to pay for the food, lodging and travel expenses that fly around, Tony." Walker poured cold water on him. Like Dunn, who has to fly around is the assistant coach, Dunn's most trusted person-Des Walker.

"I might as well be thankful that there have been no problems with the flights we have taken so far..." Dunn rolled his eyes.

In the November schedule, Nottingham Forest had two losses, one draw and one win, and the results further declined. You can already see more and more negative news about the Forest Team in the media. There were also discordant voices in the dressing room. Gareth Bale publicly questioned Flores' coaching level. In addition, he had been banned by Flores before. His doubts were raised in the media. There was a wave of waves.

Although Flores firmly denies that he has conflicts with the players, it is clear that he is losing control of this team.

It was Evan Daggerty who stood up and expressed his support for Flores, claiming that no matter what his performance was, his position as head coach was solid.

But only half a month later, he licked the saliva he spit out.

Before Christmas, the Forest team suffered a three-game losing streak, and the team was in a mess inside and outside. Evan Daugherty announced that the contract between Flores and Nottingham Forest had been suspended, and Flores became the first head coach to leave the Premier League in the new season.

Flores was dissatisfied with the backlash of the club's top management. After being fired, he was interviewed by the Spanish media and criticized the club’s senior management: "...They said the day before yesterday that they would support me, and turned around and pushed me down the abyss... I thought that the coaches in the Premier League would have a long-term implementation. There is room for planning, but obviously I was wrong. In such a team, you cannot get the time you need..."

Some people cheered for Flores's dismissal, because they could not bear Flores' poor performance. They look forward to the new coach can lead the team to new glory. Some people think that Flores is just a poor scapegoat. Nottingham Forest has been unable to find a suitable head coach since O'Neal dismissed get out of class. Constantly changing the head coach can only accelerate the degeneration of this team.

The dressing room was very quiet about this change of coaching. No one stood up and expressed his opinion on Flores’s departure, even if he had no good words for him. This can also show that Flores is in the dressing room from another side. The relationship with the players is really bad.

Before finding a new coach, Evan Daugherty appointed first assistant coach David Chris Lak as the team's interim head coach. But no one thinks that Chris Lak is qualified for this position. He has always lived in the shadow of Tony Dunn. In the eyes of many people, he can be famous, which has a lot to do with his role as Tony Dunn’s assistant coach. , As for what is his ability...Who cares?

There was a personnel change in Nottingham Forest that could shock English football, but Tony Dunn did not care. For him, Nottingham Forest is really a thing of the past. Pierce Bruce once called Dunn after Flores finished class, hoping to hear his evaluation of this matter.

Dunn felt that there was nothing to say: "...This is normal, his grades are not good, so naturally he will dismiss class. It is impossible for Evan Daggerty to pay for the team's results. Flores must be. Forget the sentence on the side wall of the player channel of the Crimson Stadium. "In addition to victory, victory", this is the tradition of the Forest team... When you can't bring victory, then leave. What is the future of the Forest team How? I don’t know, I’m not a prophet..."

He is now flying over the European continent. Before Christmas comes, he has to go to Milan to watch a game and care about some of Lennon's recent performance. Since his transfer and leaving the Forest team, Lennon has inherited the tradition of Paul Ince and Gascoigne, showing that an English player is not satisfied with going to Italy. He has not been selected for the national team for a long time. I hope this time he Your performance can impress yourself.
