Volume 6 Crimson Chapter 144 The Emperor

"Fellow viewers, welcome to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League in 10-11. We now bring you this high-profile match live at the City Stadium, with Nottingham Forest hosting Barcelona! ”

"Well, it's at the City Stadium, but I'm sure a lot of people think we're talking nonsense." The commentator next to him interjected.

The commentator laughed: "I couldn't believe it at first – Nottingham Forest's turf was so bad...... Half a week ago, Nottingham Forest said they were working on turf replacement maintenance. Who would have thought that such a piece of turf would be replaced a few days later? Are we watching Nottingham Forest training with an amateur team? ”

The guest coughed: "You say so, be careful of the protests from the Barcelona side." You liken them to 'some amateur team'. ”

"Hah!" The narrator laughed dryly and quickly changed the subject. 'There is still some time before the game starts and we have the starting line-up for both sides. Barcelona's roster is unsurprising, continuing the lineup from the previous leg. Speaking of which, Tony. Donn was really wronged by the Catalan media - he really didn't use any lethal tactics against Messi and others, Messi, Bojan...... Even Andres Iniesta, who had just returned from injury, continued to start, George. Wood did not mark Messi in the last game, and his performance was not eye-catching. ”

"Okay, let's look at Nottingham Forest again...... Attention! Compared with the stability of Barcelona, Nottingham Forest has changed a lot! The narrator raised his voice, and there was a sense of pretense.

'First of all, there was a big adjustment at the back. Layton. Barnes was automatically suspended for one game due to accumulating yellow cards, and his replacement was Joe. Mattok. This is thought to be England's rising star, although young, but already has a record of two selections in England's senior team. Gareth. Bale has been entrusted with important responsibilities by Don since his injury, starting a number of league games and currently alternating with Barnes at left wing-back. Now that Barnes is suspended, he is the only one to replace him, and this is not the first time he has played in a Champions League game. However, it is believed that the young man will still be a key target for Barcelona, because they have Messi and Alves here. We can take a good look at some young Joe in this game. Mattok's performance, and hopefully he will not live up to Donne's trust......"

'At centre-back, Pepe was suspended for a red card and was replaced by Woodgate. He was partnered with Vincent Kompany, right-back was also replaced, Raphinha is said to have suffered some injuries in training, Nkuru is in this position, and at 1.88m, he can actually play at centre-back, and he has played in both positions in the league. ”

In midfield, Fernandez was suspended for accumulating yellow cards like Barnes, with Donn arranging for Lennon to play on the left and Bentley on the right. Cohen's absence from the starting line-up is unsurprising. In the middle is still the thunderous George. Wood and Thiago's partner. Since Donn started to double the midfield, Thiago has completely found a second spring. Shaheen didn't start this game because of Tony. Instead of using the 451, which he liked so much lately, Donn went back to the old ways of the 442. Well, ladies and gentlemen, here's the main event! ”

"Let's see who the two strikers who started this game?!"

"Abang Laho!"

The commentator was on his side, commenting: "It's no problem, Abang Lajo is very fast, and if Tony Downe wants to fight back, he's a very useful player. Eastwood also picked up an injury in training and will not be available for this game, so there are only ......a few strikers to choose from.

"That's right, but they still have Ibisevic. The Super Ibby who scored two goals in a row at the Camp Nou, and if the last goal hadn't been blown off by the referee, he might have helped Forest win the game! But he wasn't in the starting lineup! Yes, you heard it right, he wasn't in the starting lineup. And he wasn't hurt, he was as strong as a cow, and he was in good shape to capture Camp Nou. But he wasn't in the starting line-up. Why he wasn't in the starting line-up we don't know, maybe the same Tony who was watching from the stands. Don will be clear. I'm sure if Nottingham Forest loses and is eliminated after this game, he will be blasted by the media with this question. With all this nonsense, who is the one who replaces Ibisevic? ”

Aaron was played on the screen. Mitchell's avatar and name.

"That's right, boy. Aron. Mitchel. The young striker, who was born on May 5, 1990 and is about to turn 21, was only named Toney in January this season. Donne was drawn from the reserve squad to the first team, making five league substitute appearances and one start, for a total of 117 minutes, failing to make a Champions League appearance, starting once in the FA Cup and failing to score. His records were as clean as a blank sheet of paper. That's not a good thing for a striker. What's more important is that before becoming a striker, Aaron. Mitchel spent seven years at centre-back in the youth team and another year as goalkeeper...... It wasn't until the age of eighteen that he started playing as a striker at Donn's suggestion, and then came into obscurity. We don't have any information on him in Caina, maybe Tony. Don won't have it either. He is neither the top scorer for youth nor an efficient striker in the midfield of the Reserve League, and we don't know anything but that he's tall and high. Tony. Why did Donn start such a man in such an important game? ”

※※※

The narrator's doubts are also the doubts of all media reporters, according to Tony. Don didn't put out the starting line-up until the last minute, and they just got the Forest's line-up, and everyone was "Ray" by the name on the starting forward.

The English journalists were better, they at least knew about the writing "Aron." Mitchel's "who is because he just started in the last round of the Premier League, although he didn't contribute. The media in Catalonia, Spain, are so confused that they will even ask: "Is there such a man in the Nottingham Forest first team?" ”

Don't think the English media know about Aaron. Mitchel would then nod his head and say, "Oh, okay." ”

In fact, their reaction was-

"Tony. Is Donn crazy! What is he doing? Ibisevic is not injured and his form is fine, why use this hairy boy! ”

"The hell knows, since he suddenly broke out at Camp Nou, he has been mentally a little abnormal......"

"No, I think it's been more elusive since he had a heart attack. In the past, he was like a hot-blooded young man, but now he is a sinister and cunning middle-aged man. ”

"Is menopause coming?"

"I think he set the stage for this defeat. Once he loses, he can put the blame on this kid – 'I had high hopes for him, but his performance was ...... Everybody saw it! ’”

"You all seem to know Tony well. Donne. "Pierce, who has been quiet. Bruce finally didn't hold back and retorted.

"Yo, look who's coming. Knows Tony best. Pierce of Donn. Bruce Big Reporter. So you know some inside scoops? ”

Bruce shook his head a little embarrassed: "I don't know ...... either"

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd: "You don't know either? Today is a real surprise. I thought Tony. Mr. Donn will give you some exclusive information! ”

"Anyway, Tony. Donn is not the kind of coach who will put the blame on the players after a losing game. "Tactical things Bruce doesn't understand, but Tony. He still thinks he knows better than these people. "He's just going to take the blame on himself, and I've never seen a manager like that."

When the reporters saw such a serious Bruce, they also felt bored - everyone was joking, if you want to discuss it seriously, it will be boring, and if you are serious, you will lose!

A group of people with Tony. Why did Don use Aaron. Mitchel let Ibisevic's doubts spread out and prepared to focus on the game that started in a moment.

※※※

The media outside will definitely look at Aaron with colored glasses. Mitchel's performance in the game was bent on picking a bone out of the egg. But in the home dressing room, Mitchel didn't feel anything out of the ordinary.

It's a Champions Cup quarter-final and he's part of the team and that's it.

Don was explaining the tactics of the game and everyone's do's and don'ts for them one last time.

After Don finished speaking, he suddenly turned on the TV and DVD player and said that he wanted to show the video to the players.

This came as a surprise to many. They had watched the footage of the Barcelona game countless times, and they already knew the opponent, so there was no need to watch any video when there were still ten minutes left.

"This is not a video analysis of the opponent." Don explained, then pressed play.

Suddenly, there was a lot of noise in the stadium, not at all like it came from the screen of the TV stand.

“…… Offside? Was the ball offside? …… Barcelona have scored! A beautiful counterattack! The Nottingham Forest players couldn't believe their eyes, the referee blew away one of their goals, came close to ruling a Barcelona goal and the tide turned in an instant! …… Tony. Donn looked furious as he got into a heated confrontation with the fourth official on the sidelines, and it would be nice to follow the example of the NBA and put a microphone on every coach...... Red! Tony. Don was sent to the stands by the referee! This game is suddenly ** overlapping at the end! The Nottingham Forest players surrounded the referee but it didn't make him change his mind. Following Pepe's red card, their head coach Toney. Don is ejected from the court again! ”

Naturally, the screen was a chaotic scene in the final stages of that game.

After the video was played, Tang said, "Tony asked me to show you this video." He wants you not to forget how they treated us in the last game and how we were treated. We are slightly inferior in terms of quality in this game, but he wants you to put aside the difference in quality and teach your opponent a hard lesson to those who want us to lose...... Pretty! ”

Although Don tried his best and tried hard to make what he said impassioned, he was not Don after all, and the effect of what he said would be discounted. Fortunately, the team members were all angered by the video just now. Because it reminded them of the final moments of the first round between the two sides, no one would ever feel comfortable after such a humiliating defeat.

In fact, each of them had a fire in their hearts, and a week of closed training did not gradually extinguish this fire, but burned brightly. Because of Tony. Donn always used this incident this week as an example, telling them that they had been insulted away from home, so they had to get revenge when they returned to their home stadium.

Now it's time to let that rage get out of the way!

And the man sitting in the stands has been planning for a week to avenge all this today, until now he is not in the dressing room, but his influence is still there.

From the renovation of the training ground, a notice was issued to replace the turf of the city course. to the constant war of words with Barcelona, repeatedly pushing them to the UEFA bed, reminding the public that UEFA and Barcelona have a close relationship. and then to change the formation and change the striker, use a young player who is completely unfamiliar to Barcelona, and use the video in the dressing room to complete the last catalyst. He calculated everything, and now everything is ready only to the east wind.

If anyone thinks Tony. Donn was suspended, so Nottingham Forest was finished, and it was a mess. Then they couldn't be more wrong!

In this game, he is no longer as simple as the king of Nottingham Forest, he is the king of Nottingham Forest......

Even if he is not in the managerial position, he can still control every detail of this team.

When the whole Barcelona team walked out of the corridor, it was in Tony. In Donn's eyes, they were already on their way to hell.

Hey, Mr. Guardiola, do you see that red in front of you? That's not us Nottingham Forest fans, it's the red lava that erupts from eighteen layers of hell! It erupts and jumps before your eyes, do you feel the heat rushing to your face?

Welcome to Hell.
