Godfather Of Champions

Dunn did not dare to underestimate Villarreal, even though this team could only be ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the Spanish Football League, and was not famous. But Dunn knows how strong Villarreal is this season.

The 05-06 season was the most brilliant season of Spain’s “yellow submarine” Villarreal. From the Champions League qualifying round, they defeated Everton, fourth in the Premier League, and then began the surprising Champions League. Dark horse journey. In the end they eliminated the Celtics and Roma all the way to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. Only in the semifinals lost to Arsenal Wenger, unfortunately stopped in the semifinals.

This season’s Villarreal’s lineup is not the strongest. In fact, Villarreal may be stronger one season later, but the strength of this team can indeed be regarded as the strongest in the club’s history. big.

Riquelme didn't get any trust under Barcelona's Van Gaal and Rijkaard, but he found this kind of core feeling in the Love Song Stadium (Villarreal home). Villarreal set him as the core, the whole team's tactics revolve around him, the team's offensive rhythm is controlled by him alone, with his movements faster or slower.

Nottingham Forest had suffered from him in the UEFA Cup last season, and Riquelme was listed as a key target in this game. Of course, George Wood was the one defending him.

Wood was a little excited about this task, eager to try. He was looking forward to today from the moment he knew that the opponent of the Forest Team Champions Cup qualifier was Villarreal.

He doesn't care what status Riquelme is in world football or what status is in the world's strong team Argentina. He only knows one thing: he once lost to this person, and now he wants to win it back.

Of course, as a coach, Dunn’s consideration is not just a question of Riquelme. He is very clear that Villarreal can achieve such surprising results this season. The most important thing is not Riquelme. In the midfield, it was Diego Forlan who was attacking the city on the front line. It was an Argentine named Sorin who was lying behind Riquelme.

The active running, steals and assists of the Argentine captain on the field are the driving force that enables the submarine to continue sailing.

If Fran and Figueroa are the torpedo launchers of the submarine and Riquelme is the main control room of the submarine, then Solin is the engine of the yellow submarine.

Like Solin, who also escorted Riquelme is Brazil's midfielder Marcos Senna (Marcos_Senna). Although this man is Brazilian, he has no hope of being selected for the national team in Brazil, which is full of masters. It is his excellent performance in La Liga that attracted the favor of Spanish coach Camacho. At the end of this year, Senna will obtain Spanish nationality. It is said that Camacho intends to call this Spanish Brazilian into the Spanish national team. Senna can play multiple positions, not only as a midfielder, but also as a full-back, which is a useful supplement to Spain's defense.

Chilean coach Pellegrini’s Villarreal is a team that not only has first-class stars, but also emphasizes the overall and tenacious combat effectiveness.

Such opponents are not easy to deal with. So it's no surprise that Everton was planted in their hands.

This is what happened in Dun En's memory during this same period. Now, here, in the City Stadium, Dunn would not want to let history develop according to his memory.

Seizing the time before the game, Dunn revisited the team's players in the locker room about their tactics, how to contain Riquelme, how to cut off Thorin's approach, and how to prevent Senna from supporting Riquel. May, how to make Fran difficult to sing alone...

These tactics have been implemented in their usual training, but Dunn still has to repeat it before the game. He was under pressure in this game... The club spent so much energy and money, and fans have high hopes for the forest team in the new season. If the first game falls into the sand, Dunn really doesn’t know what to do. How to face the faces in the stands after the game.

After reviewing all the tactics and letting everyone know what he should do again, Dunn took out a captain's armband from his pocket.

No one has worn the armband since Albertini was injured. It doesn't matter whether you wear the captain's armband or not in training, but now it is an official game. How can there be no captain on the field?

He scanned the locker room. In terms of age, experience, and convention, Van der Sar might be the best candidate. But... Dunn remembered Evan's hope, so he waved: "George, come here."

Wood stood up from the corner and stepped forward.

Dunn raised the captain's armband and wanted to put it on Wood. Wood reflexively hid, which caused a burst of laughter in the locker room.

Dunn glared at the group of boys, then grabbed Wood's left arm, and involuntarily put the captain's armband on it, and then slapped Wood's arm hard: "From now on, when Demi is away, You are the captain."

Of course Wood also knew what the captain's armband meant, and what the captain did. He looked at Dun En in surprise.

"What are you doing staring at me?" Dunn looked back, "From now on, you have to work harder than before, and not only do you work hard with your head buried, there are many things you need to consider, learn slowly, kid ."

After teaching Wood, Dunn turned his head and asked the players in the locker room: "George Wood was the second captain of the team, and Demi was temporarily acting as captain during his injury. Do you have any comments?"

Not everyone is interested in being a captain. Some people may think that they wear the captain's armband, they look awesome and have status, but most people may only see endless responsibilities, and they can never relax their demands on themselves. In short, tired!

In addition, George Wood has been determined to be the captain. The boss's love for Wood has always been obvious to all. At this time, some people stood up and said, "I have an opinion." Isn't this looking for death?

Therefore, it is very much in line with Dunn's expectations, no one has an opinion on this decision.

"Remaining..." Dunn heard a sound of footsteps coming from outside the locker room. It should be the visiting team Villarreal preparing to play. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. "There are three minutes left. We are not in a hurry to go out. Let them wait, everyone do whatever you want, in short, don’t sit around like this now, you look at me, I look at you."

There was a burst of laughter in the locker room.
