Volume 6 Crimson Chapter 84 Fusion
After these things were done, Donne's work was finally a little easier. The next training is mainly focused on the whole coaching staff, and he doesn't have to do everything himself.
When he's free, he'll notice things he hadn't noticed before.
Like what:
"Strangely, pre-season preparations are in full swing and media from all over the world are gathering at Nottingham...... Why didn't I see that secret lover of yours? Don voiced his doubts in a joking tone with Don.
Don didn't refute this, he wasn't that kind of person, he just said lightly: "She resigned from the newspaper and couldn't come." ”
Don was a little surprised: "I thought it was a trick on her - she always likes to do ......"
"This time it's for real." Tang said lightly, "Do you know what would happen if what you said appeared in any of China's formal media as it was? ”
Tang En nodded: "How to say that I am also an authentic Chinese." ”
In order to publish smoothly and not make trouble for her father, she chose to resign and then posted it alone. The consequences of this...... You've seen it all. ”
"I've seen it, I've experienced it myself......" Donn muttered.
In fact, Tang Jing did that, which had the intention of dragging him into the water. But he and she knew very well in their hearts that the impact and impact on Don was completely negligible, and as an "Englishman", he could speak freely without worrying about any consequences, because he did not live in that circle and relied on that circle to survive.
Tang Jing did this just hoping to let Tang En help her share the huge pressure at that time. He succeeded in doing so, scolding the Chinese media at a press conference, and during that time almost no one paid attention to the initiator, Tang Jing. Then came the World Cup. Now that the World Cup is over, it's time to settle scores.
Tang Jing and Tang En are completely different, although she resigned, but if she wants to continue to mix in that industry, it is estimated that it will be a little difficult...... "blocking" is expected.
He touched his nose: "Hey, suddenly I miss her a little...... Hey, don't get me wrong, I just feel that there is such a noisy woman around me, and I think it's too clean......"
Don didn't respond to him, silently finished his business, and then walked away.
Don grimaced at him from behind.
Regarding Tang Jing's matter, he really didn't expect her to really resign. This woman, who has to put on a tough posture at any time to get ahead in the world of men, now makes him think about it and feels a little pity...... ※※※ With less than half a month to go before the start of the new season, Donn has announced the end of Nottingham Forest's transfer action this season.
'I'm happy with every pound spent this summer and I think these four players are worth the money. They met my requirements and I personally decided to buy them. I'm bullish on everything they have here. I made some requests to the club before the season for a transfer fee and I'm happy to have been met. After spending this money, I don't want anything more than just waiting for the new season to start. I can guarantee that Nottingham Forest will remain as formidable force to be reckoned with in the new season. Of course, given that the media always portray me as a scoundrel who doesn't believe me, you can not believe me at all, and we'll see. ”
In his column, he wrote: The smell of hubris was completely unconcealable—and he didn't want to hide anything.
The whole world knows Tony. What Don wanted.
※※※ Since making a bet with Donn at the press conference, Carl. Spike always talks about this gamble. Now all of England knows about him and Tony. Don has such a gambling game where his own hair is a gamble.
Spike is confident that Ibisevic may not be able to adapt to the style of the Premier League and Nottingham Forest on the one hand.
You know, 20 goals in a single season is not a goal that can be achieved casually.
Tony. Don, on the other hand, never mentioned the bet again after making sure about it. But he could see that his bet with Spike, and what he said to Ibisevic afterwards, did play a role.
Ibisevic is trying to fit into his new environment. He is not at all as taciturn as everyone thinks of a Bundesliga player. On the contrary, he is very lively.
He speaks fluent American and jokes with his British teammates. He can also chat in French with the Frenchmen Zim Bonda and Nkouru and the Belgian Kompany. At the same time, he is fluent in German and has played in Borussia Dortmund and lived in Germany for many years, and Shahin, who also has German citizenship, chatted about life in Germany. In addition, Bosnia and Serbia were both part of the former Yugoslav Federation, so he was able to communicate with Kicic in his native dialect.
In addition, he is a language genius, and it didn't take long for him to be able to greet a few of his team-mates from Brazil and Portugal in Portuguese, which he was not yet proficient in.
After there was no problem with the language, he integrated into the team very quickly. The happiest thing about coming to Nottingham Forest is that no one here is interested in his poor stats from last season, and they don't embarrass him like those journalists.
Tony. Don trusts him and has the intention of making him a workhorse in training. He rewarded it with a good performance in the warm-up games. He scored two goals in three warm-up games, as well as an unselfish assist.
But no matter how good you are in the warm-ups, it doesn't mean anything. If you want the mean-spirited media in England to change their minds, you have to score goals in official matches, lots and lots of goals.
Kicic is a lesson for him. Although this big man is quite valued by Donn, he can always play a huge role when the team needs to attack the team, but because of the low number of goals, he is always called "parallel goods" by the media.
The only measure of a striker's qualifications is the number of goals he scores. Kicic had 11 assists last season, and as soon as he was on the court, Forest's frontcourt dominance would not be left behind, but he only scored nine goals, which naturally did not satisfy the discerning media. There are also media who complain about Kiki, thinking that Don used the wrong big man. But as long as the big man himself doesn't raise objections, Don will continue to use it like this.
Ibisevic is desperately trying to fit into the team. He knows that there is no position where he needs more support from his team-mates than a striker. What's more, he's not the kind of striker who can dribble the ball across most of the pitch and then shake past the opposing goalkeeper and bring the ball into the empty net.
Bentley was the quickest to integrate into the team. First of all, he is English, and there are no problems with food, weather, or language. Secondly, he is a player that Don introduced according to the tactical needs of the team, such players often do not have any adaptation period in tactics, and Donn understands Bentley's characteristics, since he decided to buy him, he must be the one who meets the tactical needs of the team.
The only thing that worries Donn is the 'World Cup syndrome', Bentley has been doing well since his move to Forest, but he believes he is just continuing his performances in South Africa this summer. The better he did in the warm-up games, the more worried Donn became about his form once the league officially began.
Nkouru has been in good form as the team's fourth player to bring in this summer. At right-back, he will face competition from Raphinha and Zim Bonda, who is old but experienced and solid defensively, and his defensive presence on the right is reassuring as long as he is not asked to provide an assist. Raphinha's strength is to get in on the flanks. In Donn's tactics of asking for a wide fly, the full-backs who can assist have always been used by him, with Raphinha on the right and Gareth on the left. Bel.
The young Nkuru probably still has to start off the bench. Donn has promised him that as long as he sticks with it and integrates into the team, the Cameroonian lad has a fantastic prospect.
Fernandez is now the slowest of the four men who moved into the team this summer. As a South American player, the language barrier and the very different styles of Spanish and English football are all good, but the most painful thing for him is the weather and food in England.
Most of the time the sky will be overcast like it was during today's training, and then it will start to rain. He finally understood why the English conversation always began with the weather. Then there was the bad food, and he was always unaccustomed to the food.
These two factors have affected his performance on the training ground and in the warm-up games. He still lives in a hotel room and has not yet found a suitable house, how can such a life make him focus on football? It's a pity for his compatriot Niklas. Milan have already gone out on loan, otherwise he could have helped his brother in Colo Colo adjust to life in England. You must know that as the only Chilean in the team now, Fernandez is really a little lonely...... Fans will have to wait a while to see Fernandez, who once won the South American Footballer of the Year.
※※※ Regardless of whether these people are well integrated into the team or not, time is passing day by day, and the start of the new season is getting closer and closer.
Ahead of the start of the new season, Nottingham Forest, who finished fourth in the league last season, will have a do-or-die battle to contend with, although they do not have a Charity Shield to play.
That's the Champions Cup qualifiers.
With only a fourth-place finish in the league, Nottingham Forest did not qualify for the main event. They must first play in the Champions Cup qualifiers and pass the test to reach the official round of 32 of the Champions Cup.
Nottingham Forest's qualifying opponent has been confirmed, Red Star Belgrade from Serbia.
In two home and away games, only eliminated Red Star Belgrade, Tony. Don is in a position to say that his team is truly back in Europe.
On August 11, the Champions League qualifying round was in full swing.
Nottingham Forest host Red Stars.
Despite being just a qualifying match, the City Stadium, which can accommodate up to 30,000 people, was packed. As a rare league title in English football history to win fewer league titles than the Champions Cup, Forest fans seem to have a tradition of believing that the Champions Cup is the most important title. This tradition is similar to that of Real Madrid, where both will choose the Champions Cup in league and Champions League matches.
But the reason for Real Madrid's choice is probably because league titles are too common for them. Nottingham Forest fans only chose this because they believe that the Champions League has a tradition of winning the championship compared to the league...... The City Stadium is not big, but the avid fans have caused a lot of trouble for the Red Star here.
Forest fans who have been held back for a year have found an outlet for their emotions, and they vent their pent-up frustration for a year. Singing and shouting in the stands, from the beginning of the game to the end of the game, there was no stop at all.
The Red Stars are very uncomfortable with such an away atmosphere, and Tony. Donn's team is at home here.
Just nine minutes into the game, Eastwood, who started the game, opened the scoring with a curling long-range shot from outside the box.
Then, in the 32nd minute, Kic's header sent City Stadium into a frenzy.
The first half was completely at the hands of Nottingham Forest, with the Red Stars unable to fight back.
In the second half, Donn began to give the new players who joined the team in the summer a chance to make their debuts.
In the fifty-fifth minute, he played Matthias. Fernandez replaces Chris. Cohen. As soon as Fernandez came on the pitch, he won a round of applause from the fans with a beautiful dribble.
However, it was one of the few bright spots in his game.
Sixty-nine minutes later, Donn replaced Lennon with Bentley.
Less than four minutes after Bentley came on the pitch, he sent the ball to the feet of Shahin, who was inserted in the back row, with a wide cross from the wing.
The talented Turkish midfielder faced the goalkeeper of the Red Star team and pushed the top corner very calmly, and the football flew into the Red Star goal for the third time.
The goal completely extinguished the Red Star players' desire to win.
Then amid the thunderous singing of the home fans, Gareth. Bale sealed the score at 4:0 with a direct free kick!
Nottingham Forest won the home game by a big margin, and after the game, the English media said that Tony. Three-quarters of Donn had already set foot in Europe.
"It's like that landing battle sixty-six years ago. Tony. Donn's troops have made it to Berlin (where this season's UEFA Champions League final will be held)! ”
