Godfather Of Champions

The locker room was a little noisy. Everyone was talking about the first half of the game, expressing their opinions, or suggesting other teammates how to do better. Only Fernandez sat in his own position, bowed his head and played with the towel in his hand, as if he had returned to the original incompatibility of joining the team.

He was still regretting that he had missed the egg knife in the first half.

All the players came in, Dunn entered the dressing room last, the door closed behind him, and the noise outside disappeared for a moment.

Hearing the sudden silence in the locker room, Fernandez knew who was coming, so he buried his head lower. After more than half a season of getting along, he has figured out the boss' temper. The team had a chance to lead the end of the first half, but because of their own mistakes, they accepted the tie result. The king of Nottingham Forest must be very, very dissatisfied, so a torrential curse will not escape.

As a player, Fernandez is not a person who likes to talk back to the coach, so he can only choose to accept this reprimand in silence.

After Dunn entered the room, the expression on his face told others-he was going to curse.

His gaze swept around in the locker room, and finally fell on the kid who kept his head down and fiddled with the towel in his hand.

In fact, when Fernandez missed the football shot, he just felt it was a pity, but seeing that Fernandez did not choose to continue running to fill the shot, he stood still and was upset. An unnamed fire broke out.

I can allow you to have poor shooting skills or bad luck, but I don't want to see you like a dog in the water.

Therefore, he admired what Ibisevic did afterwards-rushing up to growl at Fernandez, who was silent, and fully expressed his dissatisfaction.

Dunn does not think that this kind of behavior will affect the harmony of the team. On the contrary, he thinks that if everyone in the team is like Ibisevic, the atmosphere in the dressing room will be more harmonious.

What I need is a team that is eager to pursue victory, not a team that sacrifices some of the most precious things for harmony.

Dunn walked straight to Fernandez, stopped in front of him, and shrouded him in his own shadow.

"Matias. You seem to be upset. What are you upset about?" He is not afraid that Fernandez will not understand. He has been in the UK for more than half a year. Although he is not fluent in English, there is always no problem listening.

The boss had to answer his question, Fernandez lowered his head and replied in simple English: "That ball... didn't score..."

"Is it just that?"

Fernandez didn't know what the boss was talking about. He had only that chance in the first half to be annoying. At other times, his performance was quite satisfactory and made no mistakes.

"Actually, I don't care if that goal is scored." Dunn shook his head. "I really don't care. After all, we now have an away goal."

As his voice rang in the locker room, everyone else's attention turned to him and Fernandez.

"Your performance disappointed me, Matthias." Dunn stood while Fernandez sat. He didn't lean down to say this to Fernandez, but stood up and looked down. other side. "I don't care if I score a goal, what I care about is the attitude you show... Look at what you did after you missed the first kick? Stand where you are! Hold your head with your hands! Have you been attacked by terrorists? !?"

Tang En suddenly raised the volume, and despite being mentally prepared, everyone in the locker room couldn't help but his heart beat. It was like a car driving on a bumpy mountain road. With a bang, the people in the car hit their heads.

Dunn gritted his teeth and stared at Fernandez, his eyes could even spray flames.

"As long as the ball is not out of bounds, you have to rush for me to shoot! Even if you kick the ball into outer space, I will not be dissatisfied. If the opponent gets the ball first, you will give me him Even kick the ball into outer space!"

Being scolded by the bad-tempered boss, Fernandez buried his head even lower.

Dunn couldn't understand this kind of virtue. He stretched out his hands and jerked Fernandez from his seat. "Hold your head up! It's just that you didn't score a goal. What's so great? You have to be full of fighting spirit anytime! Fighting spirit! What is fighting spirit? Fighting spirit means not admitting defeat! It's just that others say you are **** and you have to rush to smoke. They! Just don't **** lower your head and keep silent!!"

Tang was a little worried about Don's heart, he coughed beside him. Unexpectedly, Dunn turned his head and glared at him: "Have you caught a cold, Tang?"

"Uh...no." Tang knew it would be better for him to not speak at this time.

"Ye... I'm sorry, boss..." Fernandez quickly apologized.

"Don't **** come here! What do you say I'm sorry to do? The fighting spirit is not that someone scolds you, so you kneel down and beg for mercy! What should you do? What should you do?"

Although Fernandez didn't stay in Nottingham Forest for a long time, he knew somewhat what he should do. So he looked up: "I will try to make up for this mistake in the second half, boss."

Dunn let go of Fernandez's shoulders and patted him, his face looked like a June sky, and it turned overcast in an instant. "Very good. It seems you understand."

Although Tang En scolded people without mercy, but from another perspective, if you don’t treat this as "curse", perhaps it won’t be so uncomfortable—he is actually reasoning to you, but his tone is more intense. , The actions are more exaggerated, the feelings are richer, and the methods are more extreme...

After giving Fernandez "the reason", Dunn turned and looked at the others in the dressing room.

"In general you did a good job in the first half. We scored an away goal, what about the loss..." He glanced at George Wood. "It's not any of you's fault." He noticed Wood's facial muscles moving, and he was happy.

"But we need to make some adjustments. It seems that Quaresma is in a good shape today. If Mourinho is a smart man, he will definitely take advantage of it in the second half. We need to pay attention to marking him. George, I Remember you are on the right?"

Wood nodded: "Yes."

In the double midfielder, Wood is on the right and Thiago is on the left.

"You and Thiago change positions in the second half and come to the left. When defending, help Barnes and Fernandez keep Quaresma to the wing."

This is what Wood would most like to hear. His answer was even louder: "Okay!"

Of course Dunn knows what Wood is thinking, so he added: "Try not to foul, and absolutely not to eat cards."

Although Wood has rarely eaten those meaningless cards now, Dunn still has to make a special reminder again. It is a double-edged sword for Wood to be full of fighting spirit to mark Quaresma, and he may accidentally scratch his fingers, which is not worth the gain.

"Guys, Inter Milan wants to fight our defensive counterattack, so you need to pay more attention to defense in the second half than in the first half. We will defend first as soon as we come up, and Inter Milan will slowly grind in the midfield. The situation is good for us, as long as they are late If they can’t score a goal late, then as the game time goes by, they will become more impatient and will be thrown aside by Mourinho’s tactics. That’s our chance."

Pepe stood up and asked, "Boss, do you mean we defensively counterattack in the second half?"

Dunn snapped his fingers: "That's right!"

※※※

When Dunn "reasoned" Fernandez in the locker room, Mourinho was busy telling the players about the tactical adjustments in the second half.

Although the score of 1:1 in the first half contained some accidental elements, it could also explain the problem. Mourinho discovered one: If you still look at Tony Dunn and his Nottingham Forest with old eyes, then Inter Milan may suffer a big loss in this game.

What is the old vision? It means that Tony Dunn himself and his team are very bad at positional warfare. When the opponent counterattacked against the Forest team, Tony Dunn and his players were at a loss and could only rely on some set-pieces and luck to win the game. At least this habit did not improve before Mourinho left England.

But judging from this first half, Nottingham Forest now has no problem with not being good at playing positional warfare. Dunn's somewhat special "Christmas Tree" is the best choice for positional warfare. In a positional battle, the first attack is often not important. The important thing is the second attack and the third attack... In this regard, the current midfielder of Nottingham Forest can do it relatively easily. The midfield is thick, the offense has levels, and the defense is also deep. It will not be counterattacked by the opponent at the end of an attack, nor will it be broken by the opponent. See how they really have a strong team style when they play around Inter Milan halftime...

If the Forest team continues to fight like this in the second half, Mourinho cannot guarantee that Inter Milan will be able to hold on, so a change must be made. He guessed that Dunn would not insist on pressing Inter Milan's tactics in the second half. Think about it in another way. If Mourinho is in Dunn's current situation, he would give up continuing to besiege Inter Milan, and that would give him his own. There is too much space left behind, so that the opponent can easily fight back.

"... In the second half, Nottingham Forest's offensive should not be as strong as the first half, so it's our turn to attack. Also pay attention to behind us. You can see how sharp their counterattack is? You will see them often in the second half. Arrived."

"Pay attention to their two wing, pay attention to their quick counterattack. We also need to strengthen the wing attack and use our attack to suppress their attack." Having said that, he glanced at Quaresma.

With a satisfied smile on his face, the Portuguese fellow is listening to the head coach's arrangement.

Can a game change the fate of a player? Mourinho thinks this kind of thing is not very reliable, but this game he does need to use Quaresma's power.

He said that we should attach importance to the wing attack, Quaresma is also one of the two wings, the implication is obvious.

Quaresma is obviously excited about what the head coach has shown. He has been a marginal figure in Inter Milan for several seasons. He has superb footwork but cannot be used to conquer the coach, which disappoints him. Now this Champions Cup quarter-final against Nottingham Forest may be a good opportunity, and Mancini’s injury absence may be God’s arrangement. As long as you maintain this state and momentum, even if the Brazilian returns from injury in the future, it is estimated that he can only substitute himself.

Quaresma is very excited about this future. He can't wait to hope that the second half will begin soon.

However, Mourinho also made his own request to Quaresma: "Ricardo, you should not limit your position to the wing. I know you like the feeling of dribbling on the wing. But in this game you Be more flexible. Both sides and middle are fine."

Quaresma nodded and said that he knew it, and the fool would shake his head against it.

After speaking to Quaresma, Mourinho began to look at everyone. "The point of this game is to score goals without continuing to lose the ball. You must remember that a score of 1:1 is absolutely impossible, nor is 2:2, 3:3! You must win, and We can’t let them score any more goals. Otherwise, our home court advantage is meaningless! Tony Dunn and his Nottingham Forest want revenge, no matter what he thinks, no matter what others say, the situation is not good for us, we I have reached the edge of the cliff. If you are not careful, you will stumble and fall. Just be careful!"

Mourinho's last remarks tactfully admitted his previous mistakes. He once said that players should not care whether this is a revenge battle in Nottingham Forest, just as an ordinary game to play. But now he found that this is simply impossible. If it were to be regarded as an ordinary game, then his team would lose. Because the game started from the pre-match slobber, Tony Dunn had already been dragged into his track.

Tony Dunn seems to have a kind of magic power that can make people he touched go crazy with him.

Now, Mourinho can only follow him crazy, let the players realize that this game is different from those ordinary games in the past. Why is it different? It’s not because they blew their heads two seasons ago. That’s just an excuse and cover for Dunn’s psychological warfare. The reason for the difference is very simple—

Because their opponent is Tony Dunn. (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!)
