Godfather Of Champions

For a mid-lower team or a team that just aims to enter the European arena next season, the transfer budget of 29 million euros is not low. But for a team that is committed to defending multiple championships and intends to make a historical breakthrough in the FA Cup, 29 million may only be enough to buy one person.

Dunn must live his life carefully. The day when you can sign a check to buy as long as you like is destined to be a dream.

Perhaps it has something to do with Dunn being a Chinese, and he is not particularly extravagant in his treatment of the transfer fee. The transfer budget given by the team last summer was not exhausted, and the test of selling Anelka and Ashley Young to make money for the club is proof.

As long as the 29 million people plan carefully, find the target, and if you are lucky, it is not impossible to buy cheap and good players.

In fact, most positions in the Forest team have at least one dedicated substitute player, and only one position is always supported by one person. This position is not the midfielder people imagine, but the front midfielder of the midfielder.

Van der Vaart is the absolute core of the team. He is even better than Ribery in offensive organization, and he has the ability to score long shots and set shots. But Van der Vaart is not an iron man like George Wood after all. Although he has not suffered a major injury after moving to Nottingham Forest, he occasionally suffers minor injuries and minor illnesses, causing headaches. Generally if he can't play, Dunn will make Ribery a cameo. But this is not a long-term solution after all. Van der Vaart was injured frequently in the world that Dunn knew. Not getting hurt here can only say that Dunn was lucky. In addition, George Wood helped him share part of the pressure. One.

In any case, a dedicated midfielder is still needed to rotate with Van der Vaart. Even without injury, Van der Vaart's physical fitness cannot guarantee that he can play a full season.

After George Wood's rotation target was settled, Dunn began to have a headache for Van der Vaart's replacement.

There is no shortage of excellent and well-known midfielders in the world, such as Brazil's Kaka is currently the world's number one midfielder, and Ronaldinho, who was cleared from the team by Barcelona. Kaka is the kind of player Dunn has dreamed of, but it is a pity that Nottingham Forest could not get this Brazil's treasure in terms of team attraction or financial ability. Ronaldinho... Dunn doesn't like this kind of undisciplined, undisciplined player, even if he is talented, don't want it.

Basically, Dunn’s goal can only be placed on those players who are famous, but not world-class stars, who have a relatively simple off-court life and don’t ask for too high salaries... Ah, there is a very important point, if The player's club doesn't want this person anymore, that's best.

But where can I find such a good thing?

Originally during the European Cup, Dunn fell in love with Croatian midfielder Luka Modlic. But the Lions of the Sagra Bu Dinamo team opened their mouths, and they had to release at least 20 million euros. Although Modelic himself hoped to join the European champion Nottingham Forest, Dunn did not use two-thirds of his transfer budget for a rotation midfielder. The forest team can only abandon the plan to introduce Modlic and look for a new goal.

And Modelic himself finally achieved his goal of landing in the top European league-he joined Tottenham Hotspur, the transfer fee was as high as 16.6 million pounds, or 20.88 million euros.

The real monopoly in the Premier League this summer is not Manchester United, nor Arsenal, Liverpool, or Chelsea, but the mid-stream team Tottenham Hotspur.

Can only envy others who have money to spend, Dunn continues to look for his favorite target in the transfer market.

Although Deco has the strength and reputation, it is very cheap, because Barcelona took the initiative to clean it. But he himself did not want to come to the Forest team, he chose Chelsea coached by the national team coach. Because of this relationship, Chelsea only spent eight million pounds.

Nasri is also a young midfielder that Dunn is very optimistic about, and is called "Zidane II" by the French media. But his price is not cheap, and Nasri himself also hopes to join Arsenal, which is coached by French professor Wenger. In the end, Arsenal spent 12 million pounds to bring him to the Emirates Stadium.

Dos Santos is also good. He has shown enough ability in the Barcelona first team, but lacks opportunities and experience. Nottingham Forest competed fiercely with Tottenham Hotspur on him. In the end, Dos Santos's personal wishes played a key role. He believes that life in Nottingham Forest is the same as in Barcelona, ​​and Tottenham Hotspur promised to give him the main position. In this way, for seven million pounds, Tottenham Hotspur bought Dos Santos, known as "Mexico Ronaldo".

The transfer market suffered successive setbacks, making Dunn very popular. Time is passing by every day. Seeing that August is getting closer and closer, the new season is about to begin, but the team has made no progress in the transfer market. The media has already mocked Nottingham Forest for winning the European Championship and League Championship, but the attraction has declined. Such a funny thing can only happen to Tony Dunn's team.

So he prayed to God before going to bed every night, and when he woke up the next day, he opened his eyes and saw a front waist lying beside him sleeping soundly.

Although this kind of nonsensical thing could not happen at all, Dunn finally found a midfielder who meets the current multiple conditions and restrictions, and his ability and potential have been recognized by Dunn.

In the 04-05 season, a young talent with dual citizenship of Germany and Turkey was born in the Bundesliga. Well, it may be a bit exaggerated to be born with Hengkong, but he is indeed a genius boy in Turkish football.

In Dortmund's game against Wolfsburg at the time, he made his debut and played the entire game. The Turkish teenager under the age of seventeen became the youngest player in the history of the Bundesliga. It didn't take long for him to become the youngest scorer in Bundesliga history. It has also become one of the hundred hope stars of world football.

However, his youthful fame put him on the burden prematurely, and Dortmund was in a financial crisis at the time, the team was in chaos, and he also fell into silence.

Just last season, Dortmund, who had a surplus of midfielders, loaned him to the Dutch super team Feyenoord, hoping to give him enough training. Coincidentally, Feyenoord's head coach was officially his teacher Van Marwijk in Dortmund.

He should have gotten a very good workout in Holland like this. This is the only way for a midfielder to rise. Van Marwijk is very optimistic about the future of his proud disciple.

His debut in the Netherlands was very successful, with a goal and an assist in the first game.

But bad luck soon came. In the third game on behalf of Feyenoord, he was maliciously violated by his opponent and fell to the ground. At that time, he was pulled off the court by an ambulance. There were tears on his face when he left the game, because he only knew how serious the injury was this time. At that time, he felt that he had completely lost his left leg and didn't feel any at all.

The results sent to the hospital for examination made everyone gasp.

Comminuted fracture of cartilage of left knee, avulsion of meniscus, tear of anterior cruciate ligament.

This kind of injury alone is the enemy of a football player's career. Now three are concentrated on the left knee of a player. What does it mean?

Feyenoord subsequently announced that he would be absent from all remaining games of the season. The surgeon in charge of the operation also said in an interview after the operation that he was not sure whether the talented Turkish player could return to the court because... it is possible to walk normally. Will be affected.

At that time, the Dutch, Turkish and German media, in addition to condemning the perpetrators, lamented-"A talented and talented player has fallen prematurely!"

Does this statement sound sensational? But it was a true portrayal of his situation.

Fortunately, the strong Turkish boy did not give up his football dream, actively cooperated with rehabilitation treatment, and finally managed to return to the stadium at the end of the season. At that time, the Dutch media lamented that he had created a miracle in sports medicine.

However, his performance after returning to the court is not the same as before the injury. The shadow of a serious injury lingered in his heart, and he didn't dare to do some actions at all, and he looked daunting on the court. The media's evaluation of him is-"It seems to have lost the original aura overnight."

It's a very apt analogy. The one who has set many records and led Turkey to the 2005 European Junior Football Championship, the youngest goal scorer in the history of the Turkish national team, is now completely devoid of everyone.

This is a fact that both Dortmund and Turkey are very sad, but they have to accept it. He was seriously injured in many ways, and he was far from the beginning.

Van Marwijk is also very sorry. He originally hoped to train him into a world-renowned star, but now it's all over.

After the end of the season, he returned to Dortmund. If he is not injured, there should be a broad road in front of him. He is only nineteen years old, and there is still a lot of time to create his future. But now, Dortmund has lost his place. Having lost his talent and body, he no longer knows where the future lies.

The family conditions of this former genius were very bad. His father was a Turkish worker in Germany and his mother was a housewife. A family of three lived in a small village in Dortmund with more than 30 relatives. If he is not injured and becomes the main core of Dortmund as he wishes, then the family's financial difficulties are nothing at all. He can get a well-paid contract, can buy a house in Dortmund, and a car, living like a rich man.

But now, everything is over.

Dortmund intends to give him a contract, but it is far from the contract they had promised. After all, the treatment of substitute players is not the same as the treatment of the main core and the Star of Hope.

Just as he was about to succumb to fate and sign this contract with Dortmund, someone knocked on his door.

"Nuri Shaheen, we want it. Let's make a price." The Nottingham Forest man said to Dortmund.

"You must be crazy, Tony. This Turkish kid is not worth buying for us. You can't just vent because you can't buy your target in the transfer market?" Chris Lak learned that Dunn planned to introduce this When a Turkish kid who was almost forced to retire, he was very surprised. With his mouth open, he could put a boiled egg directly into it.

"You are just like a woman who is dizzy with anger!"

"It hurts my heart too much for you to say that, David." Dunn covered his heart, "I know he was seriously injured. But I think his performance after his comeback is not as good as before, it is not because of his body. It's his psychology. Unfortunately, neither Feyenoord nor Dortmund cares about this. They habitually believe that the biggest and most fundamental reason for this situation is the regression of physical function."

"psychological?"

"In fact, his mental quality is still very good, otherwise he would have to announce his retirement right after he was injured, because the injuries in his eyes are really not something a 19-year-old can afford. It's just more at this time. Need guidance from others. I say this, it may not be fair to Shaheen. But I do think his injury is a good opportunity for us. Two years ago, when Arsenal bought Rosicky, they planned to bid 3 million euros. Take Shaheen away. But Dortmund is determined not to let go. They plan to make Shaheen the new core of West**. If he is not injured, we will not even have the opportunity to sit with Dortmund and discuss the price. I readily agreed to our offer..."

"Of course, get rid of a burden. They couldn't ask for it."

"Actually, this incident about Shaheen reminded me of another thing...I think our club should hire several psychologists to serve."

"Huh?" Chris Lak seemed to be listening to the fantasy.

"Frequent injuries, long-term sitting on the bench lead to depression, ups and downs, lack of strikers, goalkeepers conceding consecutive goals, trivial matters in life that affect performance on the court... these things cannot be solved by training. Yes. Our players need psychologists to comfort them, enlighten them, and keep them happy and healthy." Dunn touched his chin and nodded, "I think it is necessary and imminent. Now I will give the chairman. Mr. said go."

After speaking, he was about to get up.

"Hey, Tony. That Turkish kid..." Chris Lak stopped him.

"What's the problem? Dortmund agreed to our two million euros offer, and only to sign a contract with him personally." Dunn looked back at his assistant, "Ah, I forgot to say why he was injured There is another reason for our advantage. We can take the opportunity to lower his treatment...Of course, more than he got in Dortmund, but he can only rank downstream in the team. He himself cannot fight for a better one with us. Treatment. Now that he gives him a chance to play in a European championship team, he should thank us. Buying someone like this is better than buying someone like Ronaldinho to balance our weekly salary budget."

After that, Dunn went out to talk to Evan about the suggestion of recruiting a psychologist.

Chris Lak and Tang were left in the office. Chris Lak turned to look at Tang: "Tang, you and him are neighbors, what do you think?"

"From the players and the team, this is the best way." Tang replied blankly.

Two days later, Nottingham Forest and Dortmund announced at the same time that the 19-year-old Turkish teenager will be transferred from West** to City Stadium for two million euros.

As soon as the news came out, the English media exploded. Two years ago, if the Forest team introduced Shaxin, they would be praised, but now it is endless ridicule and ridicule that pounced on Tony Dunn.

Everyone knows what happened to this Turkish kid last season. To be honest, I won’t mention that he has a great future. There are few people in the world who can still believe that he can return to his pre-injury level. Perhaps the head coach of the Turkish national team, Trim, is one. Tony Dunn is the second one.

"Two million euros to buy a kid who almost retired? 》

"Tony Dunn can always bring us fun"

"A fool believes that Shaheen can recover"

"I don't understand what Tony Dunn is doing in the transfer market... First, it was Tiago, which Juventus didn't want, and then Shaheen who broke his leg in the Netherlands. Dignified European and League champions The king is like a tattered picker..."

"I can guarantee my personality that Nuri Shaheen will be Tony Dunn's most failed acquisition during his tenure!"

"Tony Dunn told us with practical actions that there is nothing strange in this world."

For the English media, who like to scorn and sarcasm the most, it is really happy to find opportunities to satirize Dunn. Of course, their doubts about Shaheen's ability were not because of Dun En. The sarcasm about Dun En may be out of private grievances, but Sha Xin's ability is indeed completely unrecognized by these people.

"...In the Dutch league, you will suffer such serious injuries. Are all defensive players in the English league good guys? I really don't know what Tony Dunn thinks, maybe his brain structure is similar to ours. People are different?"

Remarks like this are flying all over the sky, everyone is criticizing and questioning Dunn's transfer, and some even doubt whether he has taken any kickbacks. Dunn didn't bother to fight with them, and he thought that these flies actually helped him a lot.

When Shaheen came to Nottingham, Dunn held a lot of newspapers scolding them and welcomed the still a little unhappy Turkish "former" genius.

"Do you understand English?" Dunn asked through an interpreter.

"I only know a little bit..." Sha Xin was very depressed by the confusion about the future when he first arrived in a new environment, he whispered.

Seeing him like this, Dunn was even more convinced that Sha Xin had a psychological problem. He smiled and handed the newspaper to Shaheen, and then told him through an interpreter: "All the newspapers are scolding me, saying that I spent two million to introduce a person who can no longer play football. Ah, they questioned it by the way. What is your ability."

The translator stared at Dun En with wide eyes, not understanding why he said this. Dunn just winked at him and asked him to translate it.

At this time, Shaheen had already focused his attention on these colorful newspapers. His photos appeared on the headlines of the sports page, most of which were photos of him when he was injured in the Netherlands. He doesn't need to know much English, just seeing these photos, he already knows that there can be no good words on them. So he felt even more depressed.

After hearing the translation, he looked up at Dun En strangely.

The man laughed, and didn't take the media's scolding seriously: "You may not understand now, but when you stay in this team for a little longer, your English will improve. You will be able to understand— —Me," he pointed to himself first and then to the newspaper. "The reputation here is not good. It's almost the same to describe it as'notorious'. Now I insist on bringing you to Nottingham Forest, and I have found a reason for them to attack me. But I don't care, they scolded them. , I did mine. And I'm not the same as those idiots, I believe your future is bright!"

Since the injury, Shaheen has heard all lamentations. Everyone is lamenting the unfair destiny that caused a genius to die. He might have become a star, but now he has become a meteor. He had already listened to something that was demoralizing and demoralizing. Unexpectedly, when I first arrived in Nottingham, I heard the head coach of this team say to him, "I believe your future is bright!"

Looking up at the man's smile, he suddenly felt that he might be lucky to leave Dortmund and come here.

"The whole of England is not optimistic about your new life. Do you want to show them something in the near future? Let them know how outrageous they were in the beginning?" Dunn blinked at Sha Xin. There seemed to be a kind of magic in his hoarse voice, and after hearing it, Sha Xin nodded involuntarily.

Dunn laughed and patted his back hard: "Then build up fighting spirit! Don't look like a dead woman. I promise you will feel very cool when you successfully slap them in the face, wow haha !"

On the second day, at the press conference, Sha Xin showed off his skills in front of hundreds of Forest fans and dozens of media reporters. Dunn watched him perform with a smile beside him, just like before he was injured. In the bright sunshine that finally appeared, he showed his inspiration and skills as a creative midfielder.

Then he and Dunn held the red Nottingham Forest jersey with his name and number printed on it.

16 This is his number in the new team.

A new life begins like a new number. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
