Chapter 9: Starting All Over Again (Part II)

"Tony?" Evan asked.

Don nodded: "That's a good idea, I'm okay with it." "Although it feels a bit condescending, it can really silence a lot of people in the youth team - it is not unusual for Nottingham Forest's youth team to have several young coaches in their twenties.

"This way everyone is fine...... Evan still thinks that Donn is working so hard to get his friend to do an errand at the club, since the Chinese must be a coach, then it is naturally best to arrange for him to be the most weightless youth team coach.

The matter was settled, Don made a low-key entry into the Nottingham Forest youth team coaching team, and then the club announced personnel changes. Chris Rac was moved to the first team as head coach Tony. Donn's assistant. Originally in the youth team assisted David. Ian of Chris Lack. Mason Greenwood has been promoted to head of the youth team and is responsible for all aspects of Nottingham Forest's youth department.

After explaining these things, Don took Don to leave, but Evan left Don behind.

Don En could only ask Don to wait for him outside the door.

Closing the door, Evan whispered to Donne, "Tony, tell me what you think...... If he is your Chinese teacher's friend or brother or something, are you going to please that beautiful Chinese girl? ”

Hearing Evan say this, and then looking at him with a wicked smile, Don sighed inwardly. "He does have some relationship with my Chinese teacher, but it has nothing to do with it...... Evan, have you ever doubted my vision? ”

Evan. Dogetty shook his head: "That's good." If Nottingham Forest can reach the Champions League final in the future, then the person sitting next to me must be Don. He pointed to the door, then said goodbye to Evan and walked out.

※※※ When Don and Don stood at the youth team base that had not yet opened for training, breathing in the air that was once familiar, he felt the same as he had been a year and a half ago. Last time, he was here for seven years. How long will it take this time?

"It won't take long." Don next to him said suddenly.

Don looked at him, he looked at Don too, and then shrugged, "I know what you're thinking." Don't forget what our relationship is. You won't be disappointed, Don. ”

"Huh?"

"I wanted you to come here as an assistant coach for the first team, but now you have to start as a youth team coach. You put down your job in China, huh...... Did you tell your parents? ”

"I told them the company was going abroad." Don replied. "Three years."

"Three years...... That's enough. Let's go back, starting tomorrow, everyone will be busy. The new season is coming! Don waved his hand, then turned and left.

Don looked at the familiar training ground and walked out after Don.

The next day, the post-80s Shaolin abbot announced the news of the team's coach personnel changes, so that the assistant coach that the Forest fans were concerned about was selected. No one to David. Chris Lack's appointment was skeptical or disgruntled. Because and Tony. Don like David. Chris Rak is also a descendant of the Forest team itself, and he is his own person.

Donn knew it would be nearly impossible for him to challenge the tradition...... He was just one person, and in front of him was more than one hundred and forty years of history.

Although it was not Don's original intention to let Don go to the youth team as a general coach, he managed to stay, and when he got his professional coaching certificate at the end of August, things would be easy.

The coaching staff has been decided, and the preparation plan for the new season of the Forest team can be in full swing.

The players finished their vacation and all returned to the team on time.

On the morning of the first day of training, Donn looked at the spirited players standing in front of him and was full of anticipation for the future.

"The sun was very strong, and everyone's skin was a lot darker. How was the holiday? He asked with a smile.

"Excellent!"

"Where have you all been?"

"Paris!"

"Hawaii!"

Everyone rushed to report their vacation spots.

Donn saw Crouch, and he suddenly asked, "Pete, how did your romantic trip to Spain turn out?" ”

Crouch's face immediately turned red.

"It doesn't look bad."

The players burst out laughing.

In the midst of laughter, the red-faced Crouch also laughed. It seems that it was really said by Don.

When the laughter died down, Don pointed to David beside him. Chris Lack said: "This is your new assistant coach, David. Mr Chris Lack, who is the head of the youth team, now manages the first team with me. He is responsible for the specific training matters, and you can ask him any questions you have during the training at any time. ”

Chris Lak waved to the crowd and was rewarded with applause from the players.

Then he called out from behind the two players who were the first to be made in the summer transfer window - Gerrard. Piquee and Niklas. Bendtner.

"They're your new team-mates, the Spaniard Gerard. Pique, centre-back from Barcelona's youth team. And...... Nicholas. Bendtner, a center forward from the Danish KB team. ”

"Hello everyone." The two greeted their teammates in English, which they were not very proficient in. Piquet was a little shy, while Bendtner seemed familiar.

Don patted them on the shoulder and motioned for them to stand with their teammates. These two new teammates were quickly welcomed by the rest of the team. In the winter transfer period last season, Donn brought in almost all young players, and the Forest players are also accustomed to two more seventeen or eighteen-year-olds, and now almost half of the team is in their early twenties.

Seeing that Piqui and Bendtner were quickly accepted by the players, Donn was relieved. He clapped his hands, reminding everyone to focus on him. "I'm sure you're well prepared after a holiday break, both physically and mentally, and you're going to be very hungry to play right now, right?"

"That's right! Boss! ”

"That's right, Chief!"

The teammates around him excitedly answered Donn's questions, and the new additions Piqui and Bendtner didn't quite understand - the relationship between this coach and the player seemed to be different from the relationship between a coach and a player...... "It's great to see you in such spirits. We're playing in the Premier League this season, guys, you know what the Premier League is, right? It's a top flight in England and we're going to face a lot of better opponents than we've ever faced before. There is also the League Cup, which is participated by the strong teams of the European leagues, the cup champions! What do you think...... Are you scared now? ”

"No!!"

"It's them who should be afraid! And not us! ”

Piquet and Bendtner turned their heads in surprise at the screaming teammates around them. Nottingham Forest are just a promoted team, what makes them so confident? Analyzed by common sense, these two newcomers can't figure it out.

"Every season in the Premier League, it's about the teams that compete for the title: Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool...... I bet the audience must be tired of it. Now, let's go and make troublemakers, so that they go from despising us to fearing us! We want those spectators to applaud and cheer for ourselves, and no one else! ”

Don waved his hand vigorously.

"This season, we're going to surprise them!"
