Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 729: Volume 6 Crimson Youth Guards

The transfer fee of 16 million pounds has spent almost half of Nottingham Forest’s transfer budget this season. Next, Dunn must make a choice. Should I use all the remaining transfer fees to buy a heavyweight player, or buy a few players with average strengths?

But this choice is not a problem for Dunn.

In his mind, Nottingham Forest is bound to rise, so he does not need to spend his money on ordinary players with mediocre qualifications. He decided to concentrate all the "superior forces" and finish his work.

He fell in love with David Silva of Valencia...

But he faces a very huge challenge, because the club that fancy Silva is more than Nottingham Forest. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Liverpool, AC Milan... In this long list of suitors, Nottingham Forest is simply inconspicuous.

Dunn is determined to use 30 million pounds of transfer funds to buy Silva-of course, in installments. However, Valencia does not accept installment payments.

Last season, Valencia had a successful first half. But as the league progressed, they were gradually left behind. The team’s economic crisis has not yet been resolved, but has worsened with the advent of the global economic crisis. The Valencia club, which originally claimed that Villa and Silva were not for sale, also had to consider putting these two stars on the transfer market.

The news just came out, and the rich clubs were swarming like wolves smelling blood.

Real Madrid temporarily ranked first in the battle to buy Villa. Silva's battle is fierce.

In the end, Nottingham Forest was defeated because of the lack of wealthy wealth and wealth.

The failure of the plan to acquire Silva gave Dunn a clear view of the team's current situation-the tone counts on digging out the well-known stars who have become famous from the outside, it is better to focus on the younger players.

He decided to target those talented teenagers in England.

While Dunn was still worrying about continuing to expand the team's strength, his friend, "lunatic" Stuart Pierce called him. Recommend someone to him.

"I recommend him to you, not because I can get any benefit from this transfer. Tony." Pierce said. "I just don't want his future to be dimmed-his contract with his former club expires this summer. But he doesn't want to stay with that League One team. He longs for a bigger stage. I do too. Look, I think he can no longer make any progress by continuing to play in the League. There are a lot of teams that look at him now, but I believe you, Tony. So when he asked me for an idea, I told him Recommended you."

Dunn listened to Pierce for a long time and didn't say what the person's name was, so he asked, "Which boy is that?"

"Joe_Mattock. Left back for Leicester City."

Dunn suddenly realized. The name of this player can hardly be heard. The English media rated him as one of the top ten talented players in England. At the age of eighteen, he has been called to the England Under-21 youth team by Pierce, and has accumulated a large number of first-line players in the League One matches. The team's experience, strong body, excellent defense and good assist ability, many clubs are very interested in him. Unexpectedly... Pierce actually brought such a person to his mouth.

"No problem, no problem. Stuart. I promise you will reap a better young man than now." Dunn naturally accepted it. Is there any reason to let go of such good things?

Although the team currently has Leighton Barnes and Gareth Bale. But considering that Bell sometimes needs a cameo as a left midfielder, and Joe Matoke is very young and can be used as a future investment, this deal will be very cost-effective.

Pierce didn't lie, just two days after he called Dunn, Matoke's agent came to the door.

The next thing is very simple, the two sides negotiated personal treatment, and then signed directly. Nottingham Forest won one of England's most promising left-backs without spending a penny.

In other positions, the Forest team also made gains. Although Nottingham Forest is now less attractive to foreign stars and is plagued by financial problems, it is impossible for them to compete with wealthy people like Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City for those famous stars. But in the eyes of the young players in England, the Nottingham Forest, which has a good tradition, and the coach with this unique charisma can still attract them.

At the end of June, Charlton officially announced that their young star, Jonjo_Shelvey (Jonjo_Shelvey), was transferred to Nottingham Forest for two million pounds. For a player under the age of eighteen, this number is not low. But at this time last year, Shelway's value was as high as six million pounds. If it were not for the arrival of the economic crisis, many clubs would be more rational in their investments. It would be impossible for Dunn to buy the captain of the England under-16s national team for two million pounds.

Although Sherway is only seventeen years old, he is already well-known in England. When he was at Charlton, he was only sixteen and fifty-nine days old when he first played for the first team. It was replacing the injured Chinese national team captain Zheng Zhi. But before that, he has won the attention of many clubs. In the 2007 Victory Shield, he served as the captain and served as a midfielder, leading the England Under-16 national team to win the championship and scoring three goals. As early as Charlton youth team and reserve team, he became a midfield goal machine.

Dunn didn't buy him so that he could destroy the team this season. Rather, he has taken a fancy to his potential and will grow into an outstanding player in the near future. Everything we did this summer was to plan for the near future, to ambush and plant seedlings.

In the battle for Sherway, Dunn defeated other teams such as Sunderland, West Ham United and other teams only because he was Tony Dunn. Dunn has become popular in recent years. Although many people hate him, there are also many people who like him. In particular, his preference for young players is even known as the "Arsenal Wenger" of England. In the eyes of many teenagers, playing with Tony Dunn is very exciting.

Such advantages are not only reflected in Joe Matoke and Jonio Sherway.

Victor Moses (Victor_Moses), the 18-year-old Crystal Palace forward. Although he was born in Nigeria, his family immigrated to the UK when he was five years old. At the age of sixteen, he signed a four-year contract with Crystal Palace. Like any African player, he is extremely strong, has excellent speed, and has excellent skills. The only drawback is that although he has a height of 1.85 meters and a strong body, his header is only average.

Such a player became a member of Nottingham Forest this summer. Dunn has positioned him as a "first team rotation player", and he needs to switch between the first team, reserve team and youth team at any time.

In addition, Tony Dunn also took a fancy to Sunderland's young all-around midfielder Jordan Henderson (Jordan_Henderson). This player can play right midfielder, defensive midfielder and forward. In the 07-08 season, he led the Sunderland youth team to the FA Youth Cup final. Dunn intends to buy it and train it, but Roy Keane doesn't even talk about his friends at this time-resolutely not sell.

But Dunn was already very satisfied. Taking into account the “6+5” policy implemented in 2012, Dunn’s goal of buying this time is aimed at England. He believes that as long as these young players are well trained, they will be down-to-earth and have fewer injuries. "a little. Can be talented.

After all, the potential lies there.

※※※

Unlike the previous seasons that the Forest team was busy buying people in the transfer market, in the summer of 2009, just entering July, Nottingham Forest Club had announced that it would not buy new players. The team's big roster is also officially determined.

This news surprised the English media.

After all, look at this summer, which players have the Forest team introduced?

John Bostock, Niklas Milan, Adriano Mork and Chris Cohen were directly transferred from the youth team. This can only be regarded as tapping its own potential, but not as a new player introduced.

Introduce former Leicester City left-back Joe Matoke for free, buy the England Under-16 captain Jonio Shervey from Charlton for £2 million, and bring in the genius of Crystal Palace for £3 million Forward Victor Moses.

Gabriel Abangraho, who was brought in by £16 million, became the forest team's highest transfer expenditure this summer. He is also considered by the media to be the only player who has the ability to establish a foothold in the Forest and may have a good performance in the Premier League. Because he has already proven his ability in Aston Villa, there is no need to prove anything in Nottingham Forest.

Carl Spike, a steadfast "Dun Black" warrior, satirized Tony Dunn in his column as a joke.

"...Marrying a supermodel girl friend, lively and big-hearted, I hope the whole world will see him kissing Shania. New players for the Forest team are shrinking, which saves the club. Money. Look at the people he bought... Only Abang Raho I agree, and the others are in my eyes... If Mr. Dunn makes up his mind just to sell these young people in the future to make a difference , I’m going to applaud Mr. Tony Dunn’s excellent economic vision. Everyone knows that the Nottingham Forest Club has a hard time. Their stadium was thrown at Clifton just after the foundation was laid, as if grinning. The American boss is overpowered. The club needs money now, what should we do? Selling players. To dig out young players who seem to have great potential from everywhere, train for a few seasons, and then sell them at a high price... It's a good deal business.

But if Mr. Dunn wants to rely on these players to rise again, or get some decent results. Sorry, please allow me to laugh for three minutes first. Isn't Nottingham Forest in just half a season already down to the point of pinning its hopes on the children who have not been weaned? Or that Mr. Tony Dunn’s highest goal is just relegation? Then occasionally go to the UEFA Cup... Oh, yes, he hasn't won the UEFA Cup yet? It seems that this possibility is very high! But with all due respect, Mr. Dunn. With your current lineup, even playing in the UEFA Cup may be difficult..."

This article was full of irony and ridicule, as well as distrust, and even some insulting column comments. After it was published in the Daily Telegraph, it immediately caused a strong response.

Everyone knows that Karl Spike and Dunn have old grudges. But in this article, he scraped out those words with strong personal feelings, and he said it well.

After leaving Piquet, leaving Bendtner, leaving Ribery, leaving Van der Vaart, leaving a team like Arshavin, it is too young and too uncompetitive... George Wood is certainly worth it. Everyone believes that Gareth Bale and Pepe have already proven their abilities.

But it is hard to say whether Thiago is really suitable for Nottingham Forest.

Dunn insisted on giving Zikic a chance to continue to prove, which also made people a little worried. After all, he didn't miss someone.

Eastwood's ankles and knees are very fragile, and he does not know when he will lie on the operating table again.

Shahin? The kid hasn't proved in the Forest team whether he really recovered to the level before the injury, his performance is not stable. Of course, objectively speaking, this is also related to the poor state of the Forest team last season.

Petrov? He is a bit old, his speed is not as good as before, and his offensive methods are too monotonous.

Chris Commons? Well, to be honest, we have almost forgotten him...

Although Tony Dunn is called "England's Arsenal Wenger", he is very different from Wenger, and Nottingham Forest is not Arsenal. Even if it is Arsenal, how about the results of their youth teams playing on various fronts last season? The league championship was not won, the Champions League was not won, the League Cup quarter-finals were eliminated, and the FA Cup stopped at the semi-finals... For a team that wants to win the championship, being too young is not a good thing. , Even if the head coach has twenty-three talented youngsters who are all -10 with great potential, it won’t work.

To win more championships, what is needed is not talent, nor exciting genius, but stable performance and rich experience. Of course, luck is also essential.

If Tony Dunn really wanted to rely on these little brats to regain his strength, his title defense would be a bit whimsical!

We don't mind laughing at him severely when he fails, anyway, he now has a nuclear-powered heart, even if he stops suddenly, he can be saved.

He will not die.

Tony Dunn is a scourge. Harm is generally long-lived...

Of course, if Dunn refuted his heart problem, we would also be happy to watch a joke. (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!)
