Lian Po is old, can he still eat?

Done walked up to Wood, leaned down and asked him, "George, are you old? Do you think you are old and can't run?"

"No." Wood replied expressionlessly.

"That's good." Tang En slapped his chin, "Your defensive task will be heavier in the second half."

Wood was a little surprised. He thought Don En would ask him to strengthen his offense, but he didn't expect it to be a defensive task.

"The head coach of Nords is not a 'one-to-zero'. We will definitely counterattack in the second half because I don't allow you to lose the game. But what will happen to Nords in the face of our offense? I don't think they will start defending now, but will continue to attack, and the offense will be quite strong. So at least in the first half of the second half, you won't have much time to participate in the offense. George." Don said to Wood.

The players were even more confused when they heard this. George is the team's offense and defense core. If he concentrates on defense, then who will organize the offense?

Done patted Wood on the shoulder, then walked to Gago next to him: "You're doing a good job, Fernando. But you'd better take a break in the second half, right?"

Of course, Gago knew that this was a polite word, but in fact he made almost no contribution in the first half. After all, he was old and his physical strength and consciousness could not keep up.

But no one wants to be replaced like this.

Gago did not nod and agreed, nor did he shake his head to object. But Tang En made a decision for him directly: "Thank you."

Since Gago has been replaced, who will take over? Wood must concentrate on defense. Gago is not present, so who will organize the offense?

Tang En turned around and looked at Chen Jian who had been called back from outside.

"You go to the second half, Chen Jian."

This decision really surprised everyone else, but Chen Jian did not look surprised. He just nodded.

He had known for a long time that he would play in this game because Tang En once told him. So he was not surprised. Otherwise, he would have had the same expression as his teammates - he had just joined the team for four days and was sent to the court in this game. It seems that Tang En really trusts this Chinese player...

"Your task is to organize the offense. I know you often do this kind of work in the Spanish, so this shouldn't be difficult for you, right?" asked Don En.

Chen Jian did not answer him very simply, "It's not difficult". Instead, he frowned and asked his own question: "The team and I have only been practicing together for three days. Will it be better for me to organize the offense..."

"George will assist you." Donn replied.

Wood nodded, agreeing.

Chen Jian looked at his teammates. Although it was only three days, he had been silently observing the team. Some people have already roughly understood the characteristics of them, I believe there shouldn't be too big problems, right?

"Okay, boss." Chen Jian replied in English.

"At the beginning of the second half, Nords' offensive will be very strong. We must unify the tactical thinking - this opponent is definitely not something you can win casually. This game is a derby, guys! This is a city derby that can widen the huge strength gap! If you think you can break through with the ball, pass through with the ball, and score a goal with the random shot... Then raise your hand as soon as possible to surrender. This is not your war."

Tang En said something so that some people's faces turned red and their ears were hot. Because they thought so in the first half, from the second they stepped onto the court, they thought they could easily defeat their opponents, even if it was a derby? We are at home!

What happened? After being broken by the opponent using a set piece, they were in a panic. They fought each other and could not equalize the score until the end of the first half. Instead, they gave Nords several good counterattack opportunities, which shocked the audience of the Forest Team on the scene and booed them in dissatisfaction.

If they eventually lose the game, the performance in the first half is shameful.

"So we counterattack in the second half, waiting for Nords to press. Balotelli, you are further back and connect the front and back courts. Our three lines must be compact and we cannot separate the opponents. The two sides must dare to press on when attacking, and don't be afraid to have time behind you. If you can't press on, you will be pressed and beaten by the opponent."

"The simpler the attack, the better. The offensive routines of Nords County are complex and beautiful. We don't do much. Playing with them will only fall into their trap. Of course, they hope that football will stay for a little longer in our half."

Tang En explained the team in detail the tactical arrangements for the second half. In fact, the tactical arrangements have not changed. It was just that the players in the first half were contemptuous and did not take the initiative to implement tactical discipline at all, which led to such a situation. Now, after a bad first half, coupled with Tang En's criticism at the break, these people realized that the opponent in front of them really had to put away his contempt.

Tang En knew that Tang's football was offensive football, and he could tell from the team he built in seven years in Nordsshire. The best way to deal with such a football defense counterattack is.

Chen Jian stood on the sidelines. He was ready to play. Although Gago had already left the field, he had to complete the substitution ceremony. So he stood on the sidelines and waited for the fourth official to raise his number card.

This would be his first official game for Nottingham Forest, but he didn't feel so excited. Whether it was the first time he heard that he might play in the FA Cup or when Donn announced the decision in the locker room, he was very calm. To put it bluntly, it was cold to cut his nails, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He was a little surprised why he was so calm. Isn’t playing football for the Forest team a dream? Now that it has come true, why don’t you feel excited and happy?

Isn’t this my dream? Is it an illusion of self-deception?

The broadcast is broadcasting the name of the player who is about to go to the field.

"No. 14, Chen Jian!"

Some fans stood up and applauded, and the fourth official behind him raised the sign, and Chen Jian ran up like this.

He felt very calm, and he felt something was wrong. The scene was very noisy, but his mind was not hot. He told himself over and over again: This is the home court of Nottingham Forest! I am a member of Nottingham Forest!

It's useless. He just can't be excited. He began to wonder if he was no longer in his state...

When Tang saw Chen Jian running on the court, he glanced at Tang En next door. He could guess that Tang En would let Chen Jian play in this game, so he was not surprised by this.

And he is still looking forward to it, wanting to see what Chen Jian can perform in this game... You should know that if he takes over the Forest team next season, then Chen Jian will become his subordinate.

But... we can't just let him go in vain.

Tang walked to the sidelines and called the Nosshire player closest to him, asking him to pass the message to other players on the field, asking them to pay attention to the No. 14 Forest player in the Eastern Hole.

The Chinese journalists in the stands saw Chen Jian appear. They were very excited for a while, but they soon couldn't laugh. Because Chen Jian always followed a Nordsshire player, and sometimes there were even two...

"I really can't figure out why the boss asked us to pay attention to that Chinese boy." Paul Johnson shook his head and said to his teammates. Now it's the dead ball that they have the chance to touch each other and say these words.

"Who knows." His teammate shrugged.

"From the performance in these few minutes, it's very average..."

Of course it was very ordinary. Chen Jian was still considering why he was so calm. He did not integrate into the game. He was just a good match, with most of the passes and passes forward, and there were few forward passes.

Not only the players in Nords County think Chen Jian is very average, but even the British commentator thinks that Don Eun spent nine million to buy land, the Chinese midfielder performed mediocrely, but he thinks that there may be reasons why he doesn't have a tacit understanding with the team.

"Chen's performance is wrong..." Chris Lack said to Tang En. After these three days of training, the assistant coach has somewhat recognized Chen Jian's level, so he also feels something is wrong with Chen Jian's performance now.

Tang En pinched his chin: "Who knows, maybe it was the first time he played for the Forest team, so he was too excited..."

Chen Jian found that he was really calm. Even if two opponents came up to guard him, he could still think of observing the positions of his teammates first. What would he do if he was in a hot mind? Protect the ball, try to pass those two aggressive guys, and show himself well in front of the home team fans?

Forced breakthrough and then take a long shot?

Chen Jian shook his feet, and the football passed through the gap between the two people, and just rolled to the feet of the full-back Gareth Bale who was inserted into the back!

"Beautiful!" the English narrator shouted.

There was no one in this position before. Chen Jian was able to think of it with Bell and skillfully pass the ball through the gap, which is indeed worthy of being "beautiful".

Chen Jian suddenly remembered that when he played his first La Liga game for Espanyol, he seemed so "indifferent" when he won the best on the spot with Espanyol player for the first time...

He received the ball again, and Balotelli turned around and signaled him to pass the ball, but he waved to ask Balotelli to penetrate forward. When he saw Balotelli turn around, he immediately sent a straight pass. The football passed through the central defender of Nords. Balotelli turned around and inserted diagonally. He happened to receive the ball.

Tony Donn, his old friend, the betrothal brother who has the same parents as him, and the other person with his body, the nightmare was spreading his arms and hugging his men.

Taking over his team? This is really the most difficult challenge I have to face since I took charge.

But as Tang En said, how can we make progress without challenges? He was not challenging those out of reach champions at the beginning?

Now, he just wants to say to his wife: Tang, whom she likes, is back.
