Godfather Of Champions

On March 13, in the 36th round of the league, Nottingham Forest defeated the visiting Crystal Palace team 3-2 at home. It was not easy to win this game. In the game, some people couldn't run in the forest team. The physical coach told Dunn not to worry, this is a normal response to physical training, and the past is just fine.

In fact, Dunn doesn't worry about this problem, as long as the game wins.

The three-game winning streak of Nottingham Forest League rankings began to soar, returning from 17th to the 14th in the league, eight points away from the sixth-placed Wigan Athletic, and they had two fewer matches than the sixth. In other words, even if Wigan Athletic wins the next game, as long as the Forest team wins two make-up matches, they will be only two points away from the opponent-a game.

So in the next game, Dunn’s requirement is that no matter what the game is, no matter what method is used, as long as he wins the ball, it is considered a good game. As chasers, they have to put pressure on their opponents in front, so they can't pay too much attention to the scene.

For several consecutive games, the Forest team stumbled and stumbled. Dunn didn't care because they won again!

On March 18, Nottingham Forest defeated Burnley 1-0 at home. After the game, Burnley's head coach was very dissatisfied with the referee's penalty, believing that he had blown away an unproblematic goal from Burnley and sent off one of their players. The number-advantaged Forest team only won by one goal. No wonder Burnley's coach has to complain.

But is there any way? Who let his team play away?

On March 20th, with such a intensive match arrangement, the Forest team beat Derby County 4:2 on the away game. Eastwood performed well, staged a hat trick, and became the team's biggest contributor to the victory. In the commentary, Mortensen said: "...Most of the time Dunn relies on the team as a whole to fight, and when the team is in a downturn, he always has a way to win. For example, a misjudgment by a referee, or a The sudden explosion of a player..."

On March 24th, the league made a rematch. The Forest team took back their lost time on this day-because of the League Cup final, the thirty-third round of the league was postponed at this time, the Forest team played against Bradford at home. In the end they won 2:1. The Forest team, which had one game less, ranked eighth with 59 points. Ahead of them is West Ham, which has 60 points in one round, and Wigan Athletic, which has 61 points.

There is only a three-point gap from eighth to sixth in the league. Dunn's persistent pursuit finally paid off. As long as they win Crewe at home in the next round of the league, and any of the two teams between the seventh and sixth loses, they will be replaced by the Forest team.

Prior to this, in order to be able to maintain the current good situation, Dunn took pains and used all the methods he could think of to continue to inspire the team. He knew he couldn't lose at this time. Just lose one game, one season...no! The hard work of nearly half the season is over! So this is the time to not be discouraged anyway...

And when they were only three points away from sixth in the league, he finally didn't need to encourage him, because everyone had already killed red eyes, they knew that they would continue to win, and they would appear in the Premier League next season, rather than this lack of interest. In the First Division, they are not only fighting for the club, they are also fighting for themselves.

On March 27th, the 39th round of the league was at the City Stadium. Forest fans have been singing and cheering since the beginning of the game, cheering for the team, without stopping every minute. This made the enemy feel the trembling atmosphere at home, and naturally frightened their opponent Crewe. The Crewe team ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the league did not even have the will to resist, so they surrendered. Nottingham Forest defeated Crewe 2-0. At the same time, from another arena, the Forest fans cheered and cheered. Wigan Athletic failed to withstand the pressure that the Forest team put on them, and lost 0:1 away to Wow. Teford!

In the 39th round of the league, Wigan Athletic became the first team to fail to support a fall in the counter-attack launched by Nottingham.

At this time, the raging forest team has attracted the attention of all the top-ranked teams. Who will become the second team to be pulled down by the Forest?

At the end of the 39th round, West Ham defeated Gillingham at home. They ranked fifth in 63 minutes. The Forest team with 62 points replaced Wigan Athletic with 61 points. , Ranked last in the first group. 6th in the league! This is a very tempting ranking, which means that as long as the Forest team maintains this ranking until the end of the season, they are eligible to participate in the promotion playoffs.

At this point, Dunn had to consider again. The next game is to set the team's goal to maintain this ranking? Or take advantage of the momentum to chase, in one go, how much can you win, how much can you go forward?

This makes him dilemma.

At the same time, there is still a problem that always plagues him: consecutive victories are worthy of joy, but there are also hidden worries behind this-outstanding results invisibly make the psychological pressure on the players more and more heavier. Before each game, they think "Absolutely can't lose." One or two games with this idea will help them to show their strength. But if the game is like this, it will also cause the team to mentally collapse...

"Victory" is the team's belief and their curse. How to deal with this problem is the most troublesome for Dunn.

The games in March all ended. Nottingham Forest's head coach Tony Dunn was named the best coach of the month in the league because of his winning streak in the league, and Eastwood was also named the best player.

Is this a good sign? So Dunn couldn't laugh when he received the award-a bottle of champagne. The huge pressure in his heart is turning into a thick cloud, faintly pressing on his heart.

At this time, giving him this award is not to encourage him, it is to curse him: the best league last month, the next game will definitely lose!

as predicted. In the fortieth round of the league on April 3, the Forest team lost to Sheffield United away. In this game, although Dunn did not want to lose, everyone on the team performed very badly. He was incapable of recovering from the coaching bench, and he had no choice but to accept the defeat. The only thing to be thankful for was that his loss on the road was not unsightly, with a small loss of 0:1, and the team showed no signs of collapse.

At the press conference, Dunn took all the responsibility for the loss on his head, and in front of the winner Warnock, he was very low-key. He praised the strength of Sheffield United and admitted his tactical mistakes-although the discerning person can tell that this is not a defeatable mistake-he never mentioned the poor performance of the players. He took good care of these players, surpassing the brooding hen.

The players were worried that Dunn, who had lost the ball, would swear at them when he ended the press conference and returned to the locker room. Even they themselves know that everyone behaved badly in this game!

Since Tony Dunn took over the Forest team, the unbeaten record that has been so hard in the league has ended. Whoever stood in Dun En's position would feel uncomfortable.

Dunn was naturally unhappy, seeing Warnock's smiling face except for pleats, he was frustrated. To lose to this old man again and again is not a small shame to the arrogant Dun En. But is there any way? He ran out of three substitutions, used all the methods he could, and still lost. The game is over, and the final whistle has sounded long ago. He can't even hear the echo at this moment. What's the use of being angry?

After enduring the old man's complacency and boasting for five minutes, the press conference finally ended.

Dunn and Warnock touched their fingers as if they had shook hands with each other. Then he ignored the reporters around him, turned and left here, and walked to the locker room.

He knew very well what the situation is in the team now. In fact, although he lost the ball, the situation is not as bad as he originally estimated. This is the result that Walker contacted Bruce through his mobile phone after the game, and then the reporter Bruce told him the latest results.

The Lost Forest team dropped to ninth with 62 points, but they were only three points away from the fourth-ranked team. The top teams bite very tightly. It can even be said-Tony Dunn's team lost at the best time.

Thinking of this, Dunn felt much better. Then he thought about it again, and he suddenly understood.

Hasn't he been worried about the team's excessive pressure after the winning streak, leading to collapse? Well now, we lost.

Pushing open the locker room door, Dunn found that it was quiet, which made him very uncomfortable. He even thought he had gone to the wrong door with his head down and thinking about the problem.

So he withdrew, closed the door again, and saw the sign "AWAY"-the visiting team logo on the door, before he finally confirmed that he was right.

Opening the door again, looking at the group of players who were stunned by this action, Dunn suddenly couldn't help but laugh. "I thought I had gone wrong." He pointed to the door, "So I closed the door and looked at what was written on it. Your silence made me a little unacceptable. What's wrong with you?"

"We lost, boss." The players felt that the head coach was asking knowingly that this must be a prelude to the storm, so they rushed to admit their mistakes.

Looking at this scene, Dunn shrugged: "Does anyone want to know why I thought I went wrong just now? Because I was thinking about the problem. Is anyone interested in what I was thinking?"

No one answered him, because everyone couldn't guess what the coach had planned. If he said the wrong thing, then the first drop of the storm would fall on him. No one wants to be that unlucky ghost.

Seeing no one answered his question, Dunn was a little boring. He scratched his head: "I was thinking...we lost very well, and it was just time to lose."

The audience was shocked when he said this.
