Some media used "Tony Comes Home" as the title for this game.

Donn's home is indeed still in Nottingham, and he has been busy with the national team lately, and he has been staying in a hotel in London, and he really hasn't been home much.

Shania is not here, and there is no need to go back to that deserted home.

Go home......

Don muttered. He knew in his heart that he was afraid that Nottingham now did not want to be his own home.

When Donn arrived in Nottingham by bus with his team, he was besieged by the media. These days, he's either hiding in a hotel to tinker with the roster or hiding in the Kearney base, and the media can't reach him at all. Well, now in Nottingham he has nowhere to run. This time, I must ask for some very exciting news.

The team will stay in a hotel in Nottingham to prepare for the next day's game. As soon as the bus heard about it, reporters waiting at the gate rushed up, blocking the road between the bus door and the hotel gate.

When Don jumped out of the car, the microphone with a long pole went over everyone's heads and stretched out above Donn, and the cameras and cameras were all pointed at him, and the security guards and police at the scene were like enemies.

The other players couldn't help but whistle when they saw this.

A group of people came together again and whispered.

"I thought these people were here to interview us...... This battle is more beautiful than the main force. ”

"Don't dream, these people are here for the boss. ”

"Sure enough, it's the focus of the news. ”

"Did the coach's big mouth say anything lately?"

"Didn't say anything. ”

"Nothing is said to attract so many reporters?!"

"Stupid, this is Nottingham. He's back at home. ”

There was a commotion at the scene, and Don didn't hear the players' whispers. He was busy dealing with reporters.

"Coach Donn, Coach Donn! How does it feel to be back in Nottingham again? ”

"It feels good. Don replied with a blank face, and it was obvious at a glance that he hadn't answered the question seriously.

"Can you explain why you chose not to renew your contract with Nottingham Forest in the first place?" This question is always the most interesting for journalists, and although there are many rumors, none of them have been confirmed. They still want to hear the real answer from the person in question.

"There's nothing to talk about. Donn refused to answer. He doesn't want to talk about his contradictions with the club. I just don't want to completely stiffen the relationship with the club, after all, he has been with the club for 11 years. Some things are simply a complete secret.

"Some people say you have a conflict with the club's top management......"

"Nothing. Donn's nonsense came as soon as he opened his mouth, and he didn't even stumble.

"So is it because of ......?"

"I'm sorry I refuse to answer all the questions about Nottingham Forest. Don's face wasn't very good. It's time for these reporters to know what to do.

"But Mr. Donn, your team is going to play against Nottingham Forest, and this is also a matter related to Nottingham Forest. You don't answer......" One reporter grinned at the logical error in Donn's words.

"What I mean is that I don't answer any questions. Don glanced at the man and squeezed into the hotel lobby under the dual protection of security guards and police.

The reporter who wanted to tease Don just now was choked and frozen, and the expression on his face was very stiff.

"Wow-" a player whistled. "That's cool!"

Cal. Spike laughs when he sees this in the crowd. He looked back at the camera and smiled, "Tony. Don is really back. He breathed a sigh of relief. The arrogant and unruly Don is back, and he doesn't have to worry that Donn, who has been dormant for two months, will become a toothless tiger under the control of the FA. That's not fun.

Don is back in the sky, dressed in a black suit and wearing sunglasses, he really looks like the godfather of the underworld.

Burns held the newspaper and looked at Donn on it.

How does it feel to come home?

He really wanted to ask Don that. However, it is estimated that Donn will not come to his bar again, and after becoming the head coach of England, he will be closely watched by the media 24 hours a day. He didn't have the leisure to come here and chat with his friends. Besides, it's another thing to be able to find someone to talk to when you come here.

"He still looks so cool. John, the fat man next to him, leaned over and took a look at the photo.

Bill's gang is no longer there, so I guess we're talking about making a banner.

"But it offended the media. When he left the Forest team, few media outlets were saying good things about him. Burns replied.

"Hey, hey. John laughed, "Tony cares what other people think." It's not Tony. ”

"Not necessarily. Burns shook his head, "Tomorrow's Crimson Court, Tony will definitely care." ”

This also struck John's mind, and the smile on his face disappeared. Clam up. Just pick up the glass and take a big sip.

In a rare move, Don announced after training that he would have a day off tomorrow to give the players a good rest. He didn't say why, the players didn't think anything other than being weird, and the holiday was a good thing, and they couldn't ask for it.

Don put away tomorrow's tickets and didn't explain.

There was no value in watching a game like that. But he's interested in Don, so he wants to go to the scene and see what kind of moth Don will toss here.

Although it was a friendly match. Still, Donn held a tactical meeting in the evening.

Since the team only had one day to practice together, it was basically impossible to practice any tactics, so Don did not arrange any too complicated tactics. Follow the parallel station 442 and play the side road. These tactics are the most basic and simple, and even players who don't have a lot of tacit understanding can work together, because that's how they were trained from a young age.

At the meeting, Donn reiterated what the game means for those players. Implying that they give it their all will lead to good results.

It looks like he's very patient preparing for this match. Seeing him like this, the players who were skeptical of Donn's idea before had to take it seriously - tomorrow's game is really a great opportunity......

'They wouldn't have guessed that we would take this game seriously. Don thought for a moment. affirmed his own statement. "It's just a normal game. Although the media hyped it fiercely. But it's not all about the game. I hope you take advantage of this opportunity. ”

He looked at the players and how many of these people genuinely trusted him. I'm going to follow him, I'll know after this game.

Of course, he didn't expect everyone to fight Nottingham Forest, he didn't have that reputation in the national team and the players weren't obedient marionettes. But all he needed was those who listened to him. Those who have the fighting spirit to fight the ground, as for those who are not willing to do so...... I'm sorry, but the doors of the national team are permanently closed to you.

This warm-up match is a good opportunity to set an example, and Liwei is not just achieved through victory.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Martin. O'Neill is also working with David. Chris Rac discussed what to do with England.

"What do you think England will do tomorrow, David?" O'Neill asked.

Chris Rac knows Donn. When speculating about what Don would do, ask him if he was right.

Krislak was silent for a while, then said: "The outside world thinks that the focus of this game is not the game itself, but the outside of the field. We're going to use this game to test the squad and the form of the new players. And England is all marginal. The strength is too weak. But I think the opposite of theirs. ”

O'Neill looked at him with interest and motioned for him to continue.

"Tony. Don is not a man who follows common sense. It was his first game in charge and it was very important if he wanted to make his job a little easier in the future. This game can't just go through the motions. I think he's going to ask his team to give it their all. At this point, he paused slightly, as if to wonder if what he said later was correct.

And then ...... The goal is to beat us. He still made the conclusion come true.

O'Neill didn't object to his claim, which seemed like a fantasy, but nodded approvingly: "Just like I thought." Toni needs a win more than we do, even if it's just an inconsequential friendly. The media is always watching him, he's under a lot of pressure, and even a match like this needs to prove his ability with a win. ”

O'Neal was glad that Donn could be under this pressure so that he wouldn't feel like he was the only one in the world.

"Although they will give it their all. But we don't have to do the same. Don doesn't have to worry about his men getting hurt, we have to worry. So we stuck to our plan for this game – to look at the team. ”

Chris Rac agreed to O'Neill's arrangement. Donn needs to win, and he desperately needs it, and he can do whatever it takes to win, but Nottingham Forest doesn't need to go crazy with him. It's one thing to look at the form of the players in this game, but it's also important to avoid injuries.

In fact, deep down he felt that there was nothing bad about the Forest losing to England, anyway, the Forest team didn't expect this friendly match to change anything, so they saved themselves. Gave Don the result he wanted. Everyone was happy.

But O'Neill's subsequent words interrupted his dream.

"Even so, I don't think his England team can beat my Nottingham Forest. ”

Chris Rac turned his head to look at the manager in front of him. For the first time in so many days, he heard O'Neill say "my Nottingham Forest".

In front of other opponents, O'Neill would not say such a thing. It seems that this man was also inspired by a sense of crisis when facing the team's former head coach. It's as if the lion king is guarding his own territory, even in the face of the provocation of the former lion king, he is not willing to retreat a bit. Is it instinct or responsibility? Chris Rac didn't know.

Donn was trying to establish himself in the England squad and didn't want to lose this game. And Martin. O'Neill is because he is unwilling to live in Tony. In the shadow of Donn, England who don't want to lose to Donn. It can be said that the former is for survival, while the latter is for honor.

These two people have a good relationship in private, but they will definitely not show mercy because of this.

He's suddenly looking forward to tomorrow's game.

What will the Crimson Court be like tomorrow?

The game was played in the afternoon, and it was still very hot in Nottingham at the end of July, with kick-off at 4.30pm, when the temperature dropped slightly, but it was still hot.

Despite the hot weather and the scorching sun, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the fans who came to watch the game. The special significance of the match attracted almost all Nottingham Forest fans, while the media broadcast vans almost surrounded the Crimson Stadium.

Pepe saw this scene in the bus and smacked his lips: "It's time for the final of the European Champions Cup...... It's crazy. ”

"You're all here to see the boss, right?" Bale leaned over the window and looked at the fans below.

"Do you welcome him or do you want to boo him?" Gago, too, came to join in the fun, but as soon as he spoke, everyone fell silent.

"Uh......" Gargo was a little embarrassed. "Well, I didn't say anything. ”

He did voice everyone's concerns.

"Don't think about it so much, get ready for the game. Wood said. He may have wanted Gago not to think about it, but everyone felt that the atmosphere was colder......

When England's buses arrived at the stadium, most of the fans were in. Still, Donn got out of the car and caught everyone's attention, and the media rushed to the area, and he heard some sporadic boos.

He's not a fool, he knows who those boos are directed at. He could only pretend not to hear, and walked quickly to the corridor with his head down.

There was also a reporter behind the ass who asked: "Coach Donn, Coach Donn!" How does it feel to be home? ”

This time, Tang En didn't even want to answer pretendedly, he pretended not to hear and walked into the corridor and threw the reporter away.

Go home?

This is not a good one......
