It was the first time that Tang Jing had a private Christmas with people she usually only met in interviews, and she felt curious, but on the surface she was quite calm, deeply hiding her professional habits as a journalist.

She knew George. Wood doesn't want journalists to interfere with his private life. There was once a little-eyed British tabloid that revealed that his mother had worked as a cheap maid in the slums not long after Wood had just become famous, and there was a sarcasm in his tone. For this thing George. Wood and Nottingham Forest teamed up to shut down the media forever, not allowing any news about the Forest and Wood to appear in the media, or send a lawyer's letter.

This is different from Donn's husband and wife slapstick "blocking", which is real. Sure enough, Nottingham Forest has been insulated from that media since then.

When Don came in through the door again, his whole person had changed, and he was no longer the depressed and unhappy appearance he had before. It's been a good Christmas.

During the banquet, he occasionally joked about the mysterious relationship between Tang Jing and Tang.

In response to Tang En's joke, Tang was silent, while Tang Jing was quite generous.

Now that Don no longer lives next door to Don and Donnya, while Don and Shania enjoy their world, Don also has his own private space, so if he and Tang Jing do something, Don won't be too surprised......

The only thing he was surprised about was that with Tang's sullen surname, he was able to be extraordinarily similar to Tang Jing's surname, which was a bit arrogant and fake. Strong woman template people develop romances. It's kind of incredible......

Don felt that these two people were not compatible at all...... In the case of Tang, if there is no long-term intimate contact, others will not be able to see where his advantages are. So what does Tang Jing like about him?

Don felt that the men and women of today really made him incomprehensible. But he forgot that his "match made in heaven" with Shania also made others shake their heads, shouting "I don't understand"!

This Westerner's "Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner" is a little different from previous years due to the addition of newcomer Tang Jing, and it tastes different.

Tang Jing was a little restrained at first, and then gradually let go.

Donn's eyes would glance at Sophia from time to time. Sophia was holding her arm in the doorway, and the bird was still leaning on her shoulder, and he couldn't forget it.

He still remembered how he felt when he first met Sophia, when the whole Snington ghetto was gray — gray skies, gray cracked streets, gray walls, gray roofs, and even people's expressions......

Only the mother who sat at home peeling potatoes was colorful, vivid, and full of tenacious vitality.

Looking at it now, the light on Sophia's body is gradually fading, is it because there is already color around her, or is it because Sophia's own light of life is weak?

Don knew that this woman liked herself. But he ran away and politely refused. Now that I think about it, wouldn't it be too cruel to a weak woman to do this? But Don couldn't accept the idea that to sympathize with someone is to love her. That was actually torture for herself and for Sophia.

Fortunately, Sophia is a sensible and intelligent woman, and she takes a back seat in front of Shania, who is more suitable for Don. Just snuggling outside the house today can make her satisfied.

In this world, good people are not always lucky, and the lives of good people are not necessarily safe......

After eating and lingering for a while, Don and his party said goodbye to Wood and his mother, Sophia.

Don drove Don and Tang Jing back to his home on Blyford Garden Street before heading home on his own.

When sending Tang and Tang Jing to their destination, Tang En didn't forget to tease the two of them with his mouth: "Hey, Miss Tang Jing, it's very dangerous to be alone with a man." ”

"It's dangerous to be with you." Not to be outdone, Tang Jing fought back. Since he stopped being a reporter, he didn't have to look at Don's face. Because there is no relationship between them that anyone needs to rely on, this is a great thing for Tang Jing - she finally doesn't have to pretend to be a "grandson" in front of this domineering man.

"Hah!" Don smiled, "I'm a man with a wife's family, so I'm better than a lonely old virgin, right?" ”

"I'll go back with you, but tomorrow you'll have to wait to see the news in The Sun about you spending time with your mysterious Chinese lover, Mr. Donne."

Tang watched these two people bickering, a little helpless.

"Okay, count yourself ruthless!" After having a wife, Don had to pay attention to the image of his private life. For example, Shania has been absent for a long time, but if Don is physically in need, he will no longer call the call girl.

"Good night, I wish you all a great time together!" Tang En didn't forget to take revenge on Tang Jing when he left, and then quickly drove away.

"This old rascal!" Tang Jing could only spit on the butt of the car that was moving away quickly.

She and Don have indeed basically established a relationship as lovers, but this relationship has not progressed to the point of going to bed together.

Don laughed silently in the back. If Don En is "old", shouldn't he be buried in the ground?

※※※

Don drove the car and didn't go straight back to his home in the northeast of the city. Instead, it went around to the city center.

After 8 o'clock in the evening, it is still bustling with young couples, close friends and relatives, all gathered in the municipal square, waiting to enjoy the fireworks display that will start for a while.

Tang En had nothing to do, so he also parked his car in the parking lot and sat in the car to enjoy the fireworks. Anyway, it's not necessary to go home so early, facing a cold and deserted house of hundreds of square meters alone, and spending Christmas with ghosts?

When the first fireworks burst into the night sky, there was a cheer from the crowd.

More and more fireworks are rising into the sky, bursting out, and the sound of scratching is getting louder and wider.

Don Eun didn't have a face full of happiness like those young people. He just watched the fireworks in the sky and was fascinated - when was it time that when he was here to watch the fireworks, there was someone by his side to give him an excited admiration?

In a few days, the New Year will be coming, and when the calendar turns to 2011, if you make a wish, what kind of wish should you make?

The sound of fireworks explosions came one after another, and the sound of people was boiling. Don closed his eyes and made a wish in his mind that he didn't know when it would come true-

Hopefully one year I can spend Christmas and New Year with Shania.

Damn! Lao Tzu said that he is also a married person, why should this family be happy together, and he is still a shameful lonely person when he was in college!

※※※

It's a Christmas with both sweet and sour, but Don doesn't have much time to be sentimental there. His side will be at home to Birmingham City the next day, and the work will be the most important.

When he returned to the training base to start the day's work, Don still didn't forget to continue to joke about Tang in private, asking him if he was happy last night.

Tang ignored Don with a silver smile on his face, and concentrated on his own business, making Don uninteresting to himself.

It's been a Christmas, and it's business as usual, except for some players who don't look very professional. However, Donn has secretly made a note of who is playing too crazy, and they will not be in the squad for the game against Birmingham.

Nottingham Forest's home game against Birmingham City is the 18th round of the Premier League, and it is the first time that Tang Jing has sat in a VIP box instead of watching the game in the media box below.

The game ended with Nottingham Forest's 2-0 win over Birmingham, and the left-back who came to Birmingham on loan from Ajax showed his killer style and helped the team settle the score at 2:0.

The game was perfect, both in terms of results and process. Nottingham Forest fans rarely enjoyed the time like this – their side dominated their opponents from start to finish for 90 minutes, with Birmingham having just one shot on goal and not being in the woodwork. Aside from fouls, their players were completely unable to stop Forest's attack and were completely reduced to supporting roles in the game, not causing any problems for Akinfeev at all. So much so that during the game, the TV commentators were worried that Akinfeev would feel too cold......

Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, had twenty-two shots on goal! Possession, pass success, cross success, tackle success and header success all dominated, and every player on the pitch played well to direct such a wonderful game.

Every Forest fan who leaves the City Stadium is in a good mood, Tony. Donn and his players gave them the best Christmas presents.

Playing against Manchester United, still playing against Liverpool, and now playing against Birmingham has naturally turned this game into a half-time attack and defense.

Some experts analyze whether this is Nottingham Forest and Tony. Don's signal to transform?

Done didn't give any explanation, and two days later, on December 28, he led his team to a 1-0 defeat at the Riverside Stadium.

It was only one goal, but it was another game of total control. All the statistics are dominant.

This has made many experts who used to see the Forest team not very pleasing to the eye fall through the glasses. Marvel that Nottingham Forest can win and play well now, which is quite a bit of Arsenal's style.

But they're all. Donn won't admit that Forest didn't learn from Arsenal either. Attentive people will notice that while Nottingham Forest's stats on the ball and other technical statistics have risen, there are still some things they have traditionally left behind. For example, emphasize the first counter-robbery on the spot, if the counter-robbery is not successful, quickly shrink the defense, and never give the opponent the space and time to gallop in his own half to find a chance to score. This is something that Arsenal's Arsene Wenger rarely uses, if not all, to use.

On offense, Donn can pursue beauty and momentum, but when defending, he suddenly transforms into a German, rigorous and meticulous to the point of being a little harsh.

Offensively, he allows his players to make mistakes and even waste opportunities, and anyone who makes a mistake when defending will be scolded by Donn.

The outside world has been puzzled by the changes in the Forest team, but the Forest coaching staff is not at all surprised. Because this is the culmination of the hard work of Donn and their several seasons.

Back in the '06-07 season, Donn had the idea of controlling the game. But this and that happened intermittently, and it wasn't done until now. Nottingham Forest have the confidence and ability to win against any opponent in a way that is both efficient and entertaining the crowd.

Pierce. Once again, the Blues reporter acted as Nottingham Forest as well as Tony. Donn's mouthpiece. He wrote a compliment to the way Forest are playing so far, arguing that Nottingham Forest fans have one more thing to enjoy and show off while enjoying their win – our team is able to play football that everyone cheers!

They certainly weren't to Tony. Don has any opinion. In fact, with Donn's success with the Forest over the years, and his seniority with the Forest team since 1996. No fan will be unhappy with him. It's just that when they're arguing with Arsenal fans or Barcelona fans, they only shoot for the title, and the fans of the other two teams can taunt Toney. Donn's team played "football that would make the most noisy monkeys fall asleep."

It's great to watch the team in the stands take the initiative of the game from start to finish, play and dispatch the opponent at will, always put your mind at ease, and never have to worry about the opponent pressing you to play and suddenly score a goal......

So will Nottingham Forest stick to their new style and keep playing like this?

Don gave his answer with practical actions.

In the last month of 2010, Nottingham Forest won five and drew one of their six matches, especially against the traditional two giants Liverpool and Manchester United, without dropping points.

So Nottingham Forest won the Team of the Month, while Donn won his 15th Manager of the Month in charge.

On January 1, 2011, New Year's Day, Donn led the team to a hard-fought 1-0 away win over Blackburn.

After New Year's Eve, the players' form suddenly became bad, and at the beginning of that game, Donn was planning to win with the ball. Later, it was found that the players' form was not good at all, so they temporarily changed their minds and returned to their old business - playing the Forest's most familiar and best counterattack with almost no deliberate training.

In the end, it was Abang Lajo's goal between offside and offside on the counter-attack that he won a very, very difficult victory over Blackburn Rovers and got the three points.

The Forest's game was not pretty, nor was it good-looking, and most of the time the two sides made mistakes, which made people want to doze off. It's a big difference from the previous games. But the game was won in the end, and Don was confident when facing reporters: "No! I never said my team was going to stick to that style. I don't care if the team is good or ugly, as long as I can win! It's a fool to play well and lose the game. ”

The Times then lamented: "Blackburn's performance almost revived the curse that the winner of the month must lose next, but Tony. Don minimizes this possibility in his way. He's still the same him, and everything is changing in the new year, just Tony. Don hasn't changed......"
