Godfather Of Champions

When Tony Dunn and Carl Spike's war of words was over, the national team game came to an end. The players have returned to their clubs and began preparing for league and cup matches.

On September 15, Nottingham Forest will be a guest in Manchester to challenge Manchester City.

On September 17, they returned to the home court to play the Champions League. Their opponent was the Celtics of the Soviet Super League.

The league with Manchester City is very eye-catching because of the grievances between the two teams over the past two years.

Bendtner is now Manchester City's leading striker, the main position that can not be beaten, and it is mixed in Manchester. Although the team's performance has not changed much, but he personally got a lot of benefits from that transfer. The UAE boss can fire the coach, but he will not fire a striker who can score a goal for no reason.

Ashley Young is also quite good at Manchester City. He is basically the main player on the wing. Despite leaving the Forest, he still ranks among the best in assists per season. Can be described as a model figure of "Gold glitters everywhere". The Manchester media once ridiculed Tony Dunn: "Such a good player sells and sells. He really thinks he is the king of Nottingham Forest? This paranoid!"

The good performance of these players is in sharp contrast to the decline in Nottingham Forest's performance in these two seasons. In the season when Tony Dunn was training for half a year due to a heart attack, some media expressed their gratitude to Bendtner and Ashley Young, who “escaped” Nottingham Forest Hell in time.

But the feng shui took turns, and after those two seasons passed, Nottingham Forest was back in the ranks of the championship. This time against Manchester City, even if it is away, Tony Dunn is not willing to lose.

Before the game, the personal grievances about him and Bendtner were put on the table again. Dunn thinks these media are very boring. Why is it necessary to talk about these Chen Guzi rotten sesame seeds again and again?

In an interview before the game, Bendtner said: "Every time I play a team in red, I'm always excited."

Some people analyzed that he was trying to please Manchester City fans, because Manchester United is red. But in fact, more people believed that he was referring to Sanghuai and talking about Nottingham Forest. After all, he has secured the position of the main striker in Manchester City. To please the fans is just when he joined. How can he show his loyalty at this time?

Dunn's response to this was silence. He felt that he couldn't afford to bother with a traitor who had left. That would be too shameful. Let's use actual game results as a weapon to counterattack.

However, his general Gareth Bale jumped out to fight Bentner very uncomfortably: "He should think clearly where he should be if there is no Nottingham Forest. Maybe he will play as a substitute at Arsenal, and then keep clamoring if not. Transfer if given a chance."

This irony is really deep, quite like Tony Dunn. Bell has been following Dunn for so many years, and he is good at lip service. He is no longer the hairy boy who would be nervous when he went to the kilns in Holland with Ashley Young.

George Wood did not participate in the war of words between the two teams. He is busy discussing the new contract with the club.

After AC Milan's rebellion, Tony Dunn realized that he had to negotiate a new contract with Wood, and at this time gave the team and fans confidence.

So he threw Billy Woods, whom he didn't want to face, to Alan Adams, and asked the two foxes to discuss the renewal.

It is said that if the new contract is successfully signed, George Wood will play for the Nottingham Forest team until 2015, when he is 29 years old, and the retirement of the Forest team is just another new contract.

This contract will also greatly enhance George Wood's treatment in the team and consolidate his current position as the highest salary in the team. This time, neither Alan Adams nor Tony Dunn intends to be stingy on salary. In other words, George Wood is also the main member of the fourth place in the World Cup. After the World Cup, his reputation is not what it used to be. If he does not lose his blood, how can he let Wood stay here with all his heart? How can he reflect the extraordinary uniqueness of this captain? Value?

There is inside information that he will get a high contract with a weekly salary of 130,000 pounds, which can be compared with world-class stars such as Manchester United's Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Liverpool's Gerrard.

And his original goal of entering professional football has been achieved-a weekly salary of 120,000, and his current contract is 10,000 more than his ideal.

No one in the Nottingham Forest team disputed George Wood's contract. Everyone knows what Wood means to this team. As the team's captain, midfielder, and flag, he deserves this contract that far exceeds the salary level of the rest of the team.

And everyone else knows it. If I want to imitate George Wood and sign a contract of this level, maybe the head will put him on the market after careful consideration...

George Wood’s contract renewal negotiations have been in full swing since the AC Milan incident. The two foxes, Alan Adams and Billy Woods, bargained for several rounds, and finally finalized the last word and punctuation in the contract.

Then in the first two days of the match against Manchester City, Nottingham Forest officially announced:

Nottingham Forest’s captain George Wood, after clarifying the rumors that he had an affair with AC Milan, proudly signed his name on a new five-year contract this morning. He will continue to play for Nottingham Forest until June 30, 2015.

Then Wood and Tony Dunn attended the press conference for the contract renewal.

At the meeting, Wood very seriously expressed his loyalty to all Nottingham Forest fans: "I will play in Nottingham Forest until retirement, even if she is unfortunately relegated."

Dunn patted him next to him: "Don't say bad things, George. How can the forest be downgraded?"

The intimacy of the two caused the reporters present to laugh. This performance also completely shattered any rumors that Wood and Dunn had contradictions.

Afterwards, Pierce Bruce wrote in a comment about the contract renewal: "After half a month of waiting, all the fans of Nottingham Forest can finally take a breath of strength and get a good night’s sleep-they don’t have to worry about waking up. Reading the newspaper, they discovered that their captain had gone to distant Italy. George Wood promised that he would play here until he retired. He expressed his love for this team. The story of summer became a farce, and we have reason to look forward to George. The day Wood retired from the Forest team honorably!"

Dunn chose to announce the success of the club and Wood's contract before the Manchester City game, which was also well thought out.

He wants to send such a signal to all opponents, including Manchester City of course-Nottingham Forest is still united, the enemies should not take the opportunity to make trouble. The flag character renews the contract with the team until 2015, which can greatly inspire the team's morale and confidence. No one will be harassed by reporters who like to inquire about gossip after training. Everyone just thinks about how to win the game.

Of course, Dunn did not forget to continue to launch his best psychological warfare offensive-not against the little Bendtner, but against the team's head coach Kevin Keegan:

"I really sympathize with him. I used to think that the English football coach is the most difficult thing to do. Now I realize my mistake-the Manchester City coach is actually! Look at his predecessor, Mark Hughes. What was the first thing I said after class? "I can finally get a good night's sleep"! It's too pitiful... I can't even sleep well as the head coach of Manchester City. In fact, Kevin has long wanted to leave that place, right? He is in a tug of war with Manchester City, and the rope being pulled is the Manchester City team... Ah, who is the poorest person? I bet it’s not Kevin Keegan, who should I sympathize with?"

Manchester City did not perform well last season. At the beginning of the new season, the Toto Cup suffered a tragic defeat and lost the qualification to play in European competitions this season. The empty-handed results are simply unforgivable for the Manchester City boss who has invested at least 300 million in the transfer market in two years.

With such a result, if you change to any other team, the club will open the head coach without hesitation. Or some head coaches themselves can't bear the huge pressure and voluntarily resign.

But in Manchester City, the situation is very special.

Keegan's resignation has a lot to do with the contract that Manchester City signed with him. After Mark Hughes left, Kevin Keegan returned to Manchester City in a high-profile manner. The club valued his reputation and coaching ability in English football and gave him a valuable contract-an annual salary of 3.8 million pounds! Already on the same level as Ferguson and Wenger, the two legendary Premier League coaches.

The contract was signed for four years, and now only one year has passed. If the club must sack Keegan...very good, the remaining three years of £11.4 million will be paid together.

Anyway, Keegan has a good temper and a good mentality, so that he won’t fall into a sudden heart attack due to excessive stress and faint on the sidelines of the game like a fool like...

So he naturally mixed in this position. When the Manchester City club can grit their teeth and pay the salary of more than 10 million pounds, he will leave immediately.

How could others not know Keegan's abacus? But everyone is an insider. Basically, no one mentions this kind of face-suffering words. The saying goes, "Beat people but not face."

Tony Dunn doesn't care. With a big mouth, everything that can be said and can't be said is the same as pouring beans from a bamboo tube, all of which burst out...

So Kevin Keegan's face immediately turned black when he heard his words.

The head coach's loyalty to a team will directly affect the team's fighting spirit, morale, and performance. It's not that Tony Dunn doesn't understand this truth, so he must have deliberately shouted out this kind of thing.

Everyone who is a coach knows, don't think of professional players too clever. As a coach, if you want to manage these players in an adult manner, you will be broke, and you will eventually find that it is still a parental management method. It is most appropriate to treat them as children.

Players often have a blind trust in the head coach. They are willing to believe in the various gestures and expressions that the head coach makes on weekdays, without considering whether such statements and practices are reasonable.

Although Kevin Keegan's performance is a mess, but thanks to his good-looking management style and popularity, despite the bad relationship with the top, the prestige within the team is quite high. Players of all sizes listen to him. Every time the media reports that the club’s senior management is dissatisfied with Kevin Keegan’s performance, there are even players who stand up to defend their head coach, saying that the club should give a good head coach enough patience. Keegan has already proved his level in his past coaching experience, all he needs now is time. A club always changing the head coach frequently cannot solve any problems...

Winning the locker room is the most effective way Keegan can contend with the club's senior management.

Now Dunn's remarks are obviously to divide the cohesion between him and the players. This trick is not vicious...

To put it more viciously, to scold Tony Dunn for being shameless and shameless, not too much.

As a colleague, how could anyone be so bad at someone's job?

But Dunn didn't think so. He and Keegan are neither relatives nor friends, nor are they friends. Keegan's life or death is a matter for him? For my victory, what is it to expose others' scars? He has no psychological burden at all.

These remarks really caused waves in the media. Kevin Keegan had to stand up and refute the rumors, saying that his stay at the club has nothing to do with salary or anything, just because he loves Manchester City and hopes to lead the team out of trouble...

A reporter asked unfamiliarly: "If your performance continues to decline, would you consider resigning?"

Keegan frowned and thought about it and avoided the topic for a while: "I never think about things that haven't happened yet. I firmly believe in the future of the team and things have not gone bad enough."

In the end, he did not say that he would voluntarily resign.

Dunn’s words made Keegan very embarrassed, and Kevin Keegan was upset. Karl Spike ridiculed in the show: "I dare to make a bet with Tony Dunn this time-if Keegan appears in front of him now, he will definitely be beaten!"

They met soon.

※※※

In the fourth round of the league, Nottingham Forest challenged Manchester City away. Kevin Keegan doesn't need to beat Dunn privately, he now has a chance to beat Dunn upright. In an interview before the game, he even repeatedly emphasized this sentence in a gaffe: "We will definitely win! Definitely!"

Dunn's response to this was very calm, he only said one sentence: "He is crazy."

What is the result of the game?

Kevin Keegan, who was devastated by Dunn’s psychological warfare, had no time to study the tactics of how to deal with the Forest team. At the same time, Dunn’s remarks had an impact on the Manchester City team as if it were on the originally calm lake A stone was dropped—maybe not big enough, but ripples and changes have occurred and are gradually spreading.

The team has questions about their head coach, and the performance in the game seems to be a little insufficient.

Tony Dunn’s team seized this opportunity and launched a chasing away game against Manchester City. Bendtner tried very hard to change this result with his own goals in the game, but under the split defense of the Forest team guards, he appeared helpless and too selfish-as long as the ball is under his feet, he rarely passes. Over.

Dunn was to seize Bendtner's eager revenge mentality to separate him from the entire Manchester City offensive system. Bendtner's personal ability, whose mentality was too impatient, was not enough for the Forest team's defense.

As for Ashley Young? He was the most unlucky... On the last day of training before the game, he sprained his ankle due to excessive excitement, and this game was not even on the big list.

In the end, Nottingham Forest took away the chaotic Manchester City of the team at 2:0 away. Ibisevic did not enter the starting list in this game. After confirming his return, Dunn gave the opportunity to other forwards who sacrificed his starting position for him in the previous few games, such as Van Nistelrooy.

Van Nistelrooy didn't score in the game, but he assisted the team's second goal. With the increase of age and injuries, his number of goals is declining, but his comprehensiveness is indeed not comparable to any forward in the Forest team. With him, Nottingham Forest will have many options after attacking the 30-meter area of ​​the frontcourt.

Those who scored the two goals were Shaheen and Zikic who replaced Eastwood in the second half. Dunn used the air king to blast off Richards' defense, smashing the ball into the net in the air, and Richards, who had always been strong, was knocked aside. This goal looks really exciting!

At the press conference after the game, a reporter asked about the two coaches' verbal battles before the game. Dunn laughed so that Kevin Keegan really wanted to rush to give this **** like Carl Spike said. fist.

He said: "I think I helped Keegan and Manchester City solve a shared problem."

Two days later, the Manchester City Club announced that it had terminated the work contract with Kevin Keegan and paid Keegan a lump sum of £11.4 million in three years’ wages.

"We thank Kevin for the work he has done for the team in this more than one season and wish him the best of luck." It was such a simple sentence to see Keegan off. After losing such a large sum of money, the Manchester City Club did not want to show any "warmth" and "favors", and kicked Keegan out of the gate of Manchester City Stadium like a plague.

Tony Dunn never tells lies, he did help Keegan and Manchester City clubs to solve their shared problems.

Someone who has something to do counts. This is already the third head coach to step down because of Tony Dunn after the game against Nottingham Forest.

The first unlucky person was Real Madrid coach Brazilian Luxemburg, because he lost at the Bernabeu to the then unknown Nottingham Forest, he took the initiative to resign the next day after the game; the second unfortunate person is famous Mourinho, because he shook hands with Nottingham Forest away, his performance continued to be sluggish, coupled with the conflict with the club chairman Abramovich and resigned; the third is today's Manchester City coach Kevin Keegan. .

But if you count Coreymore, who initially left the Forest team coaching bench because of the disgrace to give way to Dunn, and Mike, who has been cursed by Tony Dunn since he was on stage, “being an assistant coach is more suitable than a head coach” Laren, there are as many as five...

"This guy is simply a fellow killer!" "The Sun" commented half-seriously and half-jokingly. (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!)
