Chapter 49 I will come back (Part 2)

On August 15, when Collimore led the team from Nottingham to Reading west of London to challenge the home team, Donn's youth team welcomed their first round opponent in the Youth League - Leicester City at the training base.

It is completely different from the media team following Collimore to Reading. The training base of the youth team is deserted. Except for the parents, relatives and friends of some young players, there are even two media companies, one is the Piao Astronomy Station and the other is the Nottingham Evening Post.

Tang En looked at the gentle young man standing next to him strangely.

"Mr. Journalist, the first team game is in Reading, not in Wilford." Donne kindly reminded Evening Post reporter Pierce Bruce.

"I know, Mr. Coach." Bruce stood there, not intending to turn around and leave.

"Do you know why you haven't left yet? The game will only start tomorrow. You can stay for one night now and interview the colorful nightlife of Forest players."

“How colorful, Mr. Coach?”

"Uh..." Donn looked at the sky and then answered Bruce's question like this, "You have to ask Mr. Stan Collimore."

Bruce laughed, "Mr. Coach, I was worried that you would be in a state of decline. It seems that I was wrong."

"Huh?" Tang En felt strange, "Why am I going to be depressed?"

Bruce looked at Donn and found that his surprised expression didn't seem to be pretending, so he shook his head: "No, nothing."

"Okay, the chat time is over. Why are you not leaving yet?"

"Of course I won't leave, Mr. Coach. Not only will I not leave today, but I won't leave in the future. From now on, I will be responsible for reporting on the Nottingham Youth Team."

Tang En opened his mouth wide, then scratched his head and muttered: "You can do whatever you want..." Then he turned back to the team's resting place. He made the final preparations for the game.

Bruce suddenly called out to Tangen: "Coach Tangen! Can you interview you for a question?"

Tang En turned to look at him: "Say."

"How confident do you think we are to win the game against Leicester City?" Bruce took out his small notebook and opened it to record Donn's answer.

Tang En waved his hand: "Don't remember, your question is meaningless."

Bruce was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the answer he got would be.

"Of course we will win. Do you have any questions to ask?"

Upon hearing this typical Tony Donn-style answer, Bruce smiled and shook his head: "No, I have no problem to ask."

When Tang En returned to the middle of the team, the young players had already changed into match clothes and surrounded him to wait for him to speak. Tang En looked at the blue sky above his head. He looked at the expectant eyes of these children.

If a person does something amazing, it will become a symbol of the person for a period of time and will be mentioned in many occasions.

For example, what Tang En did during the intermission of the game against West Ham United, and everyone still missed it until now.

Weis Morgan must have told the children in front of him every bit about Tony Tang that he heard and saw during his adult life.

Although this was not Tang En's original intention, we have to admit that Mogan did this to help him a lot. Children are the most likely to have personality cults. Now he Tony Tang En is undoubtedly the idol in the hearts of these children. People will listen to whatever he says.

This is really good. It saves a lot of trouble.

The young players in Leicester in the distance also gathered together to listen to their coach's speech. They wore blue jerseys with only numbers and no names, but like the boys of the Forests, they were players trained in professional football.

In the empty Wilford Youth Training Base, except for the lack of a third-floor stand and enthusiastic audience. Tang En felt that the environment he is in is no different from professional competitions.

"Listen, boys." Tang En coughed and said with a serious expression, "I was interviewed by a reporter there just now.

He questioned your abilities, and he thought it would be difficult for you to make a difference in the youth teams of Premier League teams." Don pointed at Pierce Bruce in the distance.

The young players who were stimulated immediately turned their eyes to Bruce, shouted at him, and waved their fists. Bruce, who was kept in the dark, did not understand what these children had to do with him, so he waved his hand to express his friendship, but the children did not appreciate it.

"Okay, okay, don't make things difficult for that poor reporter." Tang En clapped his hands and gestured to everyone to focus on him again. "The youngest here is seventeen years old, and for most of you... no.

Maybe it’s for all of you to become professional players and stars like Michael Dawson, wearing a red jersey in the Forest team’s own name printed on it is the goal. Is that wrong?”

The children yelled and replied, "No! No!"

"Yes! That's what we think!"

"Very good." Tang En nodded, "You are no longer eleven or 12 years old. You will be satisfied after practicing for four hours a week. You have to go to school to be good kids with your schoolbags at other times.

You all signed professional contracts with the club, you are professional players. Is that right?"

"Yes! Yes! We are professional players!" The 17-year-old boys waved their fists. If it weren't for their childish look on their faces, they only looked at their bodies. Some people believe that they were professional players in the first team.

"So when you can't win the game, when you make people feel like you can't win, you will be looked down upon by them." Don pointed at Pierce Blues again, "just like that.

I know you are all very dissatisfied. I have taught that guy a lesson just now! I told him--of course we will win! He will regret it because he underestimated you!"

"Well said, coach!"

"Yes! He will definitely regret it!"

Tang En stretched out his hands and signaled everyone to calm down and listen to him finish his words.

"But! We all know that it's easy to say it on our lips, and anyone who brags will do it! I want you to prove that I'm not wrong in the next game! Let the reporter who looks down on you regret his ignorance!"

The children began to get excited, and Don took the time to glance at George Wood, who was standing outside the crowd, also clenched his fists tightly and bit his lips hard.

Although he won't be on the court in this game, Donn is very happy to see Wood's performance. This is a great opportunity to instill his football philosophy in these kids, and he has to add another fire.

"You must remember!" Tang En waved his arms hard and smashed to the ground. "Coach Tony Tang En's football is a victorious football! From the beginning of changing clothes in the locker room, I put aside all other miscellaneous thoughts for me! You just need to think about how to win! You must tell yourself: I will definitely win today! Instead of 'What if I lose'!"

"We will definitely win!" Weiss Mogan took the lead and shouted loudly. The victory declaration of a group of people even attracted the attention of the visiting team. They looked at the crazy opponents for no reason.

"We will definitely - win!!"

Ninety minutes later, the Leicester City Youth Team, who was visiting Nottingham, came home with a score of 1:4. They were completely shocked by the fierce and hideous expressions of these peers in the game and their fearless fighting spirit.

Bruce was happy about Donn's achievements on the sidelines, but the children of the Forest Youth Team didn't seem to like him, and they ran from him with faces and fists and returned to the locker room.

Just when he was inexplicably surprised, Tang En walked towards him with a bright smile and took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Bruce, go to the Forest Bar tomorrow afternoon to find me, I'll invite you to drink. Thank you so much for this game!"

Bruce scratched his head, not understanding why Tang En suddenly became enthusiastic, but he still happily accepted this kindness. "I will go, but what do I thank me for?"

"Well, this... I have to thank you anyway."

The next day, Bruce was at Forest Bar with Donn, Kenny Burns, and other loyal Forest fans, while drinking beer, while watching the away game of the Forest team challenge Reading on TV.

In the bright afternoon sun in Reading, the Forests played the most terrible game of the season.

Rebrov, who was highly anticipated, exposed his old problem of being unable to adapt to the English football style. Facing the tall, strong and rough-looking Reading defenders, he was at a loss and gained nothing. He was replaced early in the 60th minute of the game.

The final result of this game was that the Forest team lost 0:3 away, losing from the scene to the score, and there was no power to fight back!

When the game was broadcast to the last moment, when the close-up of Collimore's face appeared on the TV screen, a uniform shout suddenly broke out from the Forest Bar: "Tony! Tony! Tony! Tony!" These fans watching the football shouted Don't name like cheering for the team in the stands.

Donne and Bruce stood among them. Bruce was frightened by the sudden shout. He looked around the bar in surprise. He found that almost everyone in the room stood up, slapped and shouted Donne's name.

Compared to Bruce's surprise, Donn was very calm, or he took all this for granted.

"Mr. Done, this is..." Bruce asked in confusion.
