Chapter 23: A Natural Coach (I)

When Sophia opens the door, she finds that the person ringing the doorbell is Tony; When Don coached, she was a little surprised.

"A gift for you." Don tucked the gift into the woman's arms and let himself in.

"Mr. Coach ......"

"Tony, call me Tony."

Sophia looked at Donn, who was a little excited, and didn't know what was going on. "Mr. Tony......"

"Sophia, I've recently become fascinated by the mysterious oriental civilization - Chinese culture! Do you know what it is today? ”

Sophia shook her head blankly.

"Chinese New Year!" Don raised his voice and walked up the stairs as if he were the master of the house. "The old year has passed, the new year is coming, no matter how unhappy things are, you should leave them behind and celebrate happily! So, I've got some gifts for you. ”

Sophia opened the gift box, and a violet dress lay quietly inside. She took a soft breath.

"I hope you like it. I'm not very good at picking women's clothes. Don looked upstairs, "Where's your son?" ”

Yesterday the youth team played and today should have been a day off, but Done hadn't seen Wood since he came in.

"George is out."

Don looked back at Sophia, who was still standing downstairs, "Madam, you don't mind if I eat here at noon, do you?" ”

Sophia laughed, "Of course not. Sir, do you like to eat goat meat curry? That's the food of my hometown. ”

"It's amazing, I love good food." In fact, Don is not a foodie, otherwise he would have committed suicide if he was allowed to travel through England. "Do you have pasta here?"

Sophia nodded.

"As a token of my appreciation for your hospitality, I have decided to make you a Chinese dish that I have newly learned. Come on, what are we waiting for? He beckoned to Sophia.

When it was time for lunch, when George; When Wood got home, he found his head coach sitting at the dinner table with his mom, talking and laughing.

"Why are you here?" Wood's eyes weren't very friendly.

Don looked back at the kid, his face was a little dirty, and his clothes were torn. "What? Can't I come? ”

"George, what's going on on your face? Go wash and get ready to eat. Sophia stood up and lightened the mood. Mr. Tony came to visit your mom and gave you a gift. She turned around and went to the bedroom to take out her skirt, and asked her son in front of her, "Does it look good?" ”

George glanced at it, and then obediently went to wash his face and wash his hands: "I bought it at the bull market, right?" ”

Don shrugged, not defending. The skirt cost him fifty pounds, and there would almost certainly not be a fifty pound skirt on the bull market.

The bull market used to be a market for Nottingham farmers to come into the city to buy and sell their cattle, and of course trade a little else, like a big trade market, very lively. But now the bull market is no longer selling cattle, it has become a second-hand goods market, where you can buy everything from second-hand TVs to used books and CDs. Many ordinary people in Nottingham go there to buy things and buy what they want for very little money.

Sophia didn't mind where she bought the dress, and it was clear that she was in and out of the bull market as well. "As long as it's good-looking." She happily went back to the house to put away her skirt and came out to wait for her son to eat together.

It was supposed to be a regular lunch, but on the table were Sophia's elaborate goat curry, sweet polenta, and Donn's delicious Chinese "fried sauce noodles" made with pasta, which was made directly from the leftover goat meat. Coupled with fruits, potatoes and other vegetables, this meal is also a bit festive, and the three of them sit around the table and enjoy their own relaxing time.

Don asked Wood about his situation in the youth team, and Wood didn't say much, just said that it was okay, and Don didn't know how good it was. He's been very busy lately, and he can't bother to go to the youth team for a while. I can only wait until this time is too busy to go.

After lunch, Don smiled when he saw that Wood wanted to go out but was not at ease. How could he not know what was going on in this kid's heart. So he took the initiative to say goodbye very interestingly.

Sophia was a little disappointed, she had wanted to keep Don here for afternoon tea. Don excused himself with an appointment in the afternoon.

Seeing Wood's relieved look, Don smiled secretly. This child who is obsessed with his mother's can't grow up......

In the afternoon, Donn was drinking at the Forest Bar while chatting with Michael. After that victory, the two seem to have bridged their barrier. Don knew Michael's full name was Michael; Bernard, who is the head of the forest fans in the neighborhood, has a high reputation among the fans. Even in the Forest team, there are quite a few players who know him.

No wonder he can drive so many people to boo themselves on the sidelines.

Knowing Michael's identity, Don felt the need to have a good relationship with this person. However, both of them seemed to be a little unable to put down their feet and get down the steps. So the best way to improve the relationship between the two is to win, as long as the team keeps winning and the results are up, the relationship will naturally warm.

Don knew this very well, not only one Michael, but also others who were still hostile and distrustful of him, and it was useless to say anything in front of them, and threats and pleas were ineffective. The only way to get everyone to change their attitude and become their own supporters is to win, and keep winning.

After a day of rest, Donn threw himself back into training.

If the players were a little skeptical about Donn's tactical thinking in the training session leading up to Wimbledon, they have now embraced it and believe the acting head coach is the one who can lead them to victory and from one victory to another.
