Chapter 17 The Crisis of Two Lianping (2)
Tang En, who completely treats himself as a head coach in his heart, originally wanted to be a big shot in the transfer market. When he played football manager game, what he most looked forward to was that he could chase the players he was interested in, pretend to be a good thing to say, and then watch the other party "flattered" and "disturbed", making the other party's head coach "crazy" is really a difference.
The same enjoyment. Finally, the players were won over to their own accounts, let them follow their arrangements, and said that they were most looking forward to playing football under Don En's men... However, Chairman Doggety cruelly wiped out Don En's dream. He told his head coach that the club had just recovered from the financial crisis and it was impossible to give him extra funds to the transfer market. So even though it is the winter transfer period, he can only watch other people's houses lively like the New Year.
Fortunately... the lineup left by Paul Hart for him is not too bad. Except for some of the lineups, some minor repairs can be used. Don Neng sighed. In the end, he was just a pot-firing maker like Ranieri. The pot-firing maker had no good end. Ranieri was fired by Abrasimovic after losing the Champions League in an extremely stupid way. He then went to Valencia and did not get any results. Later, he heard that he went to Serie A to coach Parma, and seemed to have successfully relegated. After that... Don Neng traveled through time and didn't know where Ranieri's next stop was.
Speaking of Ranieri, Donn thought about the time he was now. He found that his memory of world football during this period was so far away, as if it had been a long time. In fact, it was only four years since 2007.
Tang En began to pay attention to collecting news on newspapers, magazines and radio and television. He wanted to make sure that the era he was in was almost the same as in his memory. The fact that Bowyer fought with his teammates during the game was much smaller due to his "rape gate" incident, but he still reminded Tang En: he was worried that the future would become completely different from what he thought, so his time travel would be meaningless.
History - Although only four years have passed, in order to make it easier to distinguish, Don N still calls the present "history" - During this period, Abrasimovic's ruble army has not yet fully invaded the English football world. You can't see overwhelming reports in the newspapers about "Who is Abrasimovic", "How much money is Abrasi", and "Who is Chelsea's next target". The Leeds United youth guards, who were famous in European football last season, have not gone bankrupt or relegated. Although they sold a few people, people are still willing to believe that the team that has brought a youthful breeze to the English football world will have excellent performance this season and in the future. Manchester's darling David Beckham has not yet gone to Madrid, Spain, at this time, but he
The conflict with Ferguson has become increasingly deeper. The hot girl Victoria and Sir Ferguson's war for Beckham has reached a fever pitch. This is also something that Don En is very concerned about. It is estimated that in a while, the good show of "kicking the shoes with anger and kicking off the master and apprentice will never regret breaking". He has to see if Beckham will really go to Real Madrid when summer comes... In addition, should he write anonymous letters to some newspapers who are afraid of the world, pretending to be an insider to reveal to them the "facts" that Beckham is going to Real Madrid? He used this to discover another job to make a living. If he is really resigned by the chairman because of his poor record, he can still make a living by selling gossip to those tabloid newspapers, although he can only sell it for four and a half years...
His "rape gate" and Bowyer's stadium fight were small events, which were not enough to affect the direction of the river of time. It would be fine if one or two more things happened. If Don Eun opened the TV, newspaper and radio half a year later, he saw that Abu had acquired Tottenham Hotspur, he would seriously consider whether the things in his mind that were four years ahead of the world were still useful. Although the Russian was indeed very, very close to Tottenham, and was close to the point where the Tottenham boss offered a price, unfortunately Tottenham boss Daniel Levi mistakenly estimated the situation. He asked for a price too high. He offered a 22.9% club shares of the club, and his own estimate was only 50 million. In the end, the Russians chose Chelsea, which had a lower price and a more reasonable asset distribution. Everyone on Earth knew the next story...
When Tang En gradually came back to his senses from the shock of traveling through time, he found that there were many interesting things in this period. He looked at and played with a mentality of a person who had experienced it, just as he looked forward to the content of the next season of "Prison Break". This felt really good.
※※※
Six days later on the 18th, on January 25th, Nottingham Forest welcomed Preston `North`End, the 18th-ranked league match at its home court. Preston also played one less game, and they currently only accumulated 31 points. This is a twenty-eight round of make-up matches.
Speaking of Preston, Donne is very unfamiliar, but when it comes to another person, Donne is very familiar with him. That person is Preston's former coach. David Moyes resigned in March last season and went to coach at Goodison Park Stadium. Moyes played for Preston for five years when he was a player. After he retired from Preston, he brought the team to the League One in the 1999-2000 season as the head coach. Later, he went to Everton and was completely successful. He became a famous young coach in English football. There was even rumors that he would take over Ferguson's class to rule Manchester United. Later, the English national team selected coaches after the World Cup in Germany, and his name was also on the list of candidates.
This man was not the one who discovered and trained Rooney, but he was the one who made Rooney know all over England. He contributed a treasure to England.
After he left, Preston also fell back to the trough, and now his goal is to relegate in the League One every year.
Don En sighed that "the world is so small". He can encounter and familiar things in low-level leagues. His previous opponent allowed him to see the current situation of the former Liverpool five-time champion. This game made him meet Moyes' first stop at the coaching seat. In the UK where he is unfamiliar with his place, he can still hear these familiar names. It feels great and also makes him closer to this strange country.
Preston cannot be considered a strong team anyway. They are very weak and they are away. Before the game, the Nottingham Evening Post predicted that the Forest team could easily win this game even if there is no head coach on the sidelines. The fans are also full of expectations for the victory. Don Eun, who is also looking forward to watching the game with the two discipline committees in the VIP box. He is looking forward to his first victory after he comes here.
What is the result?
In the first sixteen minutes, David Johnson took the lead for the Forests. The City Stadium was full of joy. But just fourteen minutes later, Preston's defensive midfielder Lee Cartwright equalized the score with a corner kick. This was his first goal of the season.
The singing of the city stadium was cut off by his goal, and then it rang again. Then the Forest players bravely moved forward with the cheers of fans and bombarded the goal for Preston. The poor head coach of the away team replaced three defensive players in a row, and he was swearing to get one point away. Seventy minutes later, he got what he wanted.
The Forests had the advantage in the whole game, with a ball possession rate of 64%, fourteen shots, seven corner kicks, and nine offensive free kicks. This data is not bad. The result is that it is "offensive football", and only one goal was scored. On the contrary, Preston only had a pitiful four-foot shot and a 36% possession rate. The only thing they beat the Forests was the number of fouls - twenty-nine times. No matter how badly they were booed by the Forests fans on the field, no matter how the fans humiliated them as "turtles who dared not show up", they became winners and got a valuable point on the road to relegation and left Nottingham with a smile.
This result disappointed many fans very much, and Tang En was also disappointed, but he did not swear in the box, and his attention was already attracted by another thing.
After the game, he heard sporadic booing in the stands, which was a warning. If the results were not improved, his head coach would lose his heart. Looking at the fans who left the game, he frowned and did not even shake hands with the "partners" who accompanied him for two games. Dogette came out to help them stand up stupidly to relieve the siege.
At the end of the supplementary game, Forests scored 40 in all 29 league games, and ranked 13th-ranked Millwall, and ranked 12th with goal difference. Half of the season, such a result did not satisfy Don En. He hoped to leave something to prove himself in the first season, and nothing is more suitable for the head coach than victory and results.
He decided to tell Walker what he had in his heart, so he asked Walker to drink and chat at the Forest Bar in Burns on the night of the game.
Walker agreed.
Now the Forest Bar has become the only designated place for Donn to invite people to drink and party, because there are the best wines in Nottingham.
