The new season has begun, and Nottingham Forest have played three league games, winning two and drawing one, which is not bad. Although they have changed two head coaches, Toney. Don has laid a solid foundation and after the summer turmoil, the team has maintained a high standard.

After seeing such a performance from the Forest, the media also changed their tone. Before, they were not optimistic about the Forest team, which had experienced a personnel storm and was out of internal and external troubles. Some experts have analyzed that Forest's goal this season should be to try to enter the European competition next season, whether it is the Champions Cup or the League Cup, rather than some defending champions.

Now they believe that as long as Flores can hold on to the team, then Forest are still strong contenders for the title.

The Forest team has done well, and the happiest person is Evan. Dogety. As the league progresses, the scolding he's gotten is disappearing. Although there are some fans who hang signs in the stands to insult him every game, it is a very small number after all, and he chooses to ignore his surname.

He began to dream of a successful league title defence by the end of the season. That's when everyone will forget about Tony completely. Donn, who began to praise him as the most successful president in the club's history, could rival Real Madrid's Mr. Bernabeu.

The 30-year-old has been sold to Serie A newcomer Genyana, with Forest taking £20 million out of the deal. I have to say Alan. Adams is a very good negotiator, and the 30-year-old Ibisevic has made him boast that he is in the prime of his playing years, in the golden years of strikers, scoring goals efficiently and consistently, and even more importantly, he has the experience of winning the trophy many times, as the main scorer of the treble winning team, he only sold you 20 million pounds, you really make a lot of money!

In this way, Nottingham Forest sent off the last player to leave the team this summer. Aron. Mitchel was completely corrected and became the team's leading goalscorer. Although before everyone predicted Gareth. Bell, George. Wood, Fernando. Gago, Akinfeev...... and others did not transfer away. However, the media believes that this is just because there is no agreement on the price for the time being, and it cannot leave this summer, which does not mean that it will not be able to leave next summer. As long as Forest's results this season are not satisfactory, the departure of those men is almost a certainty.

Nottingham Forest bought only four people this summer, and there was no large-scale purge. This is thanks to two successive head coaches, Martin. O'Neill and Flores' sobriety and persistence – in a situation like this, there's nothing more effective than keeping the squad steady.

Thiago. Silva, Michael. Dawson and Mario. Balotelli, as well as a Belgian attacking striker Ayden. Hazzard (eden_hazard).

The lack of reinforcements has also been a huge drawdown to the fact that they have been wrestling with the question of who is responsible for the current state of the team. No one is responsible for the team's preparation for the new season, and no one has a plan that has been implemented. Even Flores, when he took over, the new season was almost underway. Trying to combine the cards in his hand as well as possible was enough for him to have a headache, and he almost didn't think about such a thing as recruitment.

After three league games, Nottingham Forest are in fourth place for the time being. They are about to depart for Monaco for the UEFA Super Cup to be played there. As winners of last season's European Cup, they will be battling last season's UEFA Cup winners AZ Alkmaar of the Netherlands for the best of Europe's kings.

Before that, a big event in English football was Toney. Donn has released his second national team squad.

As the media had speculated, the vast majority of the 25-person roster are old faces.

Not many of the fringe figures from the first friendly made it to this list. It was the first official game Donn played with LinkedIn Glen, and he was more cautious than outsiders thought.

In the previous draw, England were placed in Group C. The other six teams in their group are Nordic powerhouses Denmark, Wales, Ireland, Serbia, Macedonia and Armenia. To be honest, this is not the strongest group in which Denmark and Serbia may only pose a threat to England. But in Donne's mind, the more dangerous the unfamiliar team is. It's the same thing as playing in a club – you're likely to make mistakes against opponents you don't know.

An opponent like Macedonia, Donn admits he doesn't know anything about it. So during this time, when he didn't go to the Premier League to watch the game, he and his coaching staff were desperately collecting relevant information about Macedonia, analyzing tactics, and studying countermeasures.

It was England's first game of the European Championship qualifiers, and Donn cared a lot about it. He hopes that the team can get a "good start", so that the next game will be better. Another non-superstitious factor is that Macedonia are not a strong team, and if England cannot win Macedonia at home, then they will lose a chance to grab points.

None of the 26-man squad released by Donn are from non-Premier League teams.

Arsenal have two players in the squad, both from midfield, namely Theo Walcott (theo_alcott) and Wilshere (jack_ilshere).

Aston Villa were selected for two, goalkeeper Stuart. Taylor (stuart_taylor) and right-back Glenn. Johnson (glen_johnson).

Blackburn alone, veteran goalkeeper Paul. Robinson (paul_robinson).

Chelsea trio, centre-back John. John Terry (john_terry), midfielder Joe. Cole (joe_cole), midfielder James. Milner (james_milner).

Manchester City three, midfielder Gareth. Barry (gareth_barry), centre-back Curtis. Davis (curtis_davies), guard Stephen. Taylor (steven_taylor).

Manchester United's three, centre-back Leao. Rio Ferdinand (rio_ferdinand), striker Wayne. Rooney (._carrick).

Liverpool two. Midfielder Stephen. Gerald (steven_gerrard) and Nigel. Riocock (nigel_reo-Coker).

Middlesbrough alone. Midfield winger Stewart. Downing (steart_doning).

Leeds United one. Fabian plays as a midfielder. Delphi (fabian_delph).

Everton three. Defender Yoleon. Lescot (joleon_lescott), left-back Leighton. Barnes (leighton_baines), forward James. Vaughn (james_vaughan).

Next up is Nottingham Forest, who have the most selections for the national team this time, with five of them. Left-back Joe. Mattok (joe_mattock), midfielder David. Bentley (david_bentley), striker Aaron. Mitchel (aaron_mitchell) and Gabriel. Abang Lajo (gabriel_agbonlahor) and their captain, midfielder George. Wood (ge_ood).

"Tony. Donn fulfilled what he said at his inaugural press conference: 'If the Nottingham Forest players are doing well, why not pick them?' Looking at such a big list, we realized once again Tony. The fact that Donn had only managed for Nottingham Forest before becoming England manager. He is most familiar with this team......"

This is what the media said about his big list.

In terms of material selection, it is decent, and the only one with a strong "Tony." Donn style" is these five Forest players.

"The Nottingham Forest players were unfazed by that chaotic summer and will have a big responsibility in the New England squad."

"Tony. Donn's cronyism is fearful of causing displeasure from other clubs. ”

"Bullshit dissatisfaction." Donn tossed aside the newspapers that were accustomed to speaking ill of him. "I don't recruit their players, the managers want to. Did you see the look on Benitez's face when I saw that I was going to call up Gerrard, who had just returned from injury? It's like I robbed his wife. ”

Walker laughed beside him.

Today is August 29th, and all the players who appear on this list have flown in from all over the world to report on London. Only five Nottingham Forest players have not yet arrived, and they will be reported after the UEFA Super Cup.

Donn and Walker were waiting in front of the TV to watch the game.

Changing his identity, Don found that his thoughts and mindset had also changed. In the past, in such a situation, he hated the national team to call up players before important matches, because it would cause players to have thoughts in their hearts, worried about being injured in the game and not being able to play for the country. For the club's manager, such thinking can sometimes cost him a win, so he has to do his best to avoid it.

It's different now. He is now standing in a trench with the players, worried that the players will work too hard in the club game, resulting in injury, or breaking out of form in advance, and when he arrives at the national team, he will not be able to find his form and spirit.

But it's impossible to expect Forest to lose because of that.

AZ Alkmaar are not a strong team and Nottingham Forest should not have a problem winning this game. Donn only wants Flores to save face and replace the main players early with the win already sealed.

The TV screen showed the names of both sides of the match.

Nottingham Forest, goalkeeper Akinfeev, centre-back Michael. Dawson and Thiago. Silva was partnered at left-back Gareth. Gareth Bale, right-back Raphinha. Midfielder George. Wood, Fernando. Gago, Matthias. Fernandez and David. Bentley. Forward Aaron. Mitchel and Abang Laho.

Out of Joe. Mattok wasn't in the starting line-up and everyone else was on.

Don can only hope for them now that they don't get injured and don't have fitness problems.

This UEFA Super Cup match ended with a victory for Nottingham Forest. AZ Alkmaar quickly ceded control of midfield other than a bit of a threat to Forest at the start of the game. George. After Wood and Gago's two men were firmly in control of the midfield, the Forest began to fight back.

It is worthy of being the team that won the treble last season, and the foundation is thick.

A barrage of attacks threatened AZ Alkmaar's goal.

Nottingham Forest's attacking frenzy paid off in the 37th minute.

Mitchel opened the door with a header from Abang Laho.

Walker was excited to see the goal, and it seemed that both men were in good shape.

"You can use the two of them as a striker combination for the national team. Abang Lajo and Mitchel have enough tacit understanding......" he suggested.

Don shook his head: "Managing the national team is not such a simple matter, Des. You see, I just recruited a few more players from the Forest team, and I have already attracted some local media condemnation. If I dared to put the injury-free Wayne Rooney on the bench, the Manchester journalist would have torn me apart. I have to balance the relationships and I don't want to have any 'Forest', 'Manchester United', 'Liverpool', 'Chelsea', 'Gunners' in my team...... These little messy groups. ”

Walker gave him a blank look: "So you say in front of reporters, 'If they do well, use them'?" ”

'It's just a way to deal with the reporters and a signal to the players – I only know the form, not the people. It's just a means of management, and it really can't be so blunt. There are a lot of things that can't be made clear here. Okay, let's stop talking about this and keep watching the game......"

After Forest took the lead, AZ Alkmaar tried to counter-attack, only to have more space left behind them, and Forest seized the opportunity to add another goal and almost seal the win in the first half.

The rest of the game wasn't much fun. Flores gave Done enough face, replacing Bentley and Mitchel, two players of the England national team, in the second half. George. Wood, as captain, still played the whole game. Don didn't have a problem with that, Wood was a monster, a future soldier, and he didn't have any physical problems at all, and he played the whole game.

When the Forest team lost the Community Shield, there were fears that such a team would start the new season to collapse and collapse.

At this time, Flores led the team to win the Super Cup, which was very good news for the team, stabilizing the morale of the army and boosting the morale.

Look at Evan on the podium. Dogotty, what a big smile. It was probably the happiest smile he'd had in more than three months.

George. Wood lifted the Super Cup in the air, and his teammates around him surrounded him with laughter and raised their hands to touch the trophy.

The commentator said passionately: "Nottingham Forest have won the Super Cup!" They became the best of the European kings of the year! After a chaotic summer, they set off again. Flores also won his first title in charge of the team and looks set to lead the team to replica Tony. Donne's brilliance, he seems to be full of confidence! It may not be long before he succeeds in making Forest fans forget about Tony. Done's existence ......"

Walker glanced at Donn next to him.

Don had no color on his face, and when he saw Walker looking at him, he glanced at him, "Don't look at it, get ready for the biggest trouble." ”

"The biggest trouble?" Walker froze. He hadn't heard of anything like this, so what trouble would it be? Could something have gone wrong? Is the trouble coming from Nottingham Forest? Aren't those people all descendants of Don En, how can they be in trouble?

Don didn't explain, just stared at the TV screen. In fact, he was stimulated just now. See George. Wood's face, he suddenly remembered - the second time he went to the Crimson Court, he was cheered on by the fans and saw the respect of the players, but George never seemed to say anything. He was at the front of the line, the first to walk out of the aisle, without even raising his head.

Donn didn't know what was going on in Wood's mind, what he thought of himself.

When the time comes, how will he face George in the national team?

That's the biggest problem......
