Chapter 78 Related Professional Ethics

When Nottingham Forest reached the finals for the second consecutive time, the Nottingham Evening Post put the title "Athens" on their outline to show their excitement. This time, the Nottingham Evening Post did not act like this. The carnival was already on the night of the game and it was facing the league at the beginning of the next day, which was really not a time to celebrate.

Last night, all the beer in the bars where the Forest fans gathered in Nottingham were sold out. A large number of police officers were waiting on the streets and near the bars to guard against the troubles of fans who had drunk too much. Fortunately, in addition to several small-scale fights, more people were persuaded to verbal conflicts.

Because they are all supporters of a team, their verbal conflict is nothing more than who is the biggest contributor to this game. Some say it is George Wood, some say it is Beckham who scored the goal, and some say it is Tony Donne. But no matter how much the fight is, after the sober person comes out to smooth things out, everyone laughs and puts their arms around their shoulders and drinks each other.

"What's there to argue about? Aren't they all part of our Nottingham Forest?"

The match between Nottingham Forest and Barcelona was held on the evening of April 29. The next morning, Don took Don to London with him to London. Chris Lack stayed to supervise the team's training, and the two of them went to Stamford Bridge to observe their opponents in the finals. The life-and-death battle between Manchester United and Chelsea began.

Before this game, Chelsea had a slight advantage because they scored a goal away from Manchester United in the first leg and tied 1:1 with Manchester United.

It was really unexpected that Grant's team could reach this point and tie Manchester United at Old Trafford. Even Don himself had to admit that Chelsea's performance was something he did not expect when Grant came on stage.

Now it is said that Grant made it to the semi-finals by relying on the things left by Mourinho. It is a bit unfair. After this game, Don Ever got to know this man he once despised.

Chelsea played 1:1 with Manchester United at home, and both sides could not decide the winner and lost in overtime, so they had to play a penalty kick. Although Terry lost the penalty kick, Cristiano Ronaldo, who had performed well all season, also kicked away. The penalty kick was then the single-round elimination system, and Kalau ended up in one go, and deafening cheers sounded at the scene. However, when Nani walked up with the ball, Stamford Bridge's cheer immediately turned into a boo, which brought huge pressure and impact to Manchester United players. Nani, who appeared in the overtime substitute Rooney, was too pursuing angle and missed the ball.

Chelsea eliminated Manchester United by penalty shootout and successfully advanced!

Tony Don and Don were surrounded by Chelsea fans cheering and jumping with their arms raised high, and the stands where they were trembling slightly. Don and Don had no intention of participating in the celebration of future enemies, so he and Don quietly left wearing sunglasses.

This result disappointed him a little.

In fact, he hopes that Manchester United will defeat Chelsea and enter the Champions League final, which is the first. He prepares less information and targeted tactics for his opponent, and has higher work efficiency; second, Manchester United will inevitably be distracted. Anyway, I am already distracted, and you have no reason not to be affected. Everyone is even.

Now, Manchester United has been eliminated, and only the league champion can win will not let Nottingham Forest be spared at Old Trafford. Although they will not let the Forest team be spared, they will now work harder than what Don En thought before. At that time, if they lose their troops and lose their generals in the competition with Manchester United for the league championship, wouldn’t it allow Chelsea to reap the benefits?

"I didn't like Grant from the beginning, and there was indeed a reason..." On the way back to Nottingham, Done complained endlessly to Don.

Disappointment is disappointment, complaints are complaints. The game still needs to continue playing. The 37th round of the league, the last game before the "decisive battle against the Forbidden City Top". There will be many possible results in this round, but only one will have a decisive impact on the ending - Nottingham Forest lost to Aston Villa away, and Manchester United won. Then Ferguson will win the championship one round ahead of schedule.

Of course, Ferguson hopes that after the team was eliminated from the Champions League, he will immediately use a league championship to calm people's hearts, but he can't do this matter. It depends on the performance of Forests and Aston Villa. What makes Manchester United support this is a little bit longing for - Nottingham Forest is away in this game, and has just played several fierce battles in a row, and it is not easy to guarantee whether it is physical strength or condition. In addition, Aston Villa cannot be considered weak either.

Manchester United's home match against West Ham United is the first game of the league in this round. The failure in the Champions League made all Manchester United players a hungry wolf. The poor West Ham United appeared at the wrong place at the wrong time... Of course. For Manchester United's wolves, it was the right time to come at the right place. An opponent that could not be the right one.

4:0. West Ham United has no power to fight back. Manchester United stars who lost to Chelsea vented their strength on this weak opponent.

Manchester United fans then began to pay close attention to Forests' match against Aston Villa.

Unlike Manchester United fans' concerns, Nottingham Forest fans don't care about the results of Manchester United at all. Because no matter whether Manchester United wins or loses, as long as they win, the result will be the same - the final battle at the top of Old Trafford in the 38th round.

Don Eun didn't arrange anyone to inform Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford at any time, so there was no need for that.

In this game, Don continued the lineup with Barcelona in the second leg.

At Aston Villa home court, Villa Park Stadium, Nottingham Forest brought the home team down with a 2:0 clean and neat move.

Bentner scored two goals alone, becoming the best in this game.

"The final of the Champions League is May 21. The last round of the league is May 11. "Tang En looked at the schedule and then drew a red circle on the corresponding days on the calendar. After doing this, he threw down his pen, clapped his hands, turned to Tang and said, "The last two games of this season. Decide whether we will be heroes or bears. "

"It's not that exaggerating, bear..."

"That's true. There is nothing more shameful in this world than the Double Asian King... No, there is. " He suddenly denied his statement, "That is the King of Sanya, the Four Asian Kings, the Five Asian Kings and the Six Asian Kings." He stretched out three, four, five and six fingers in turn.

Tang grinned. Sometimes his football philosophy is really different from Tang En's, but he can always cooperate with Tang En's work well, put his thoughts in his heart, and not take them out if there is no need.

He felt that it would be better to win the championship, and it would be better to win the runner-up.  It would be better to fail at the beginning. Don't think about it on the contrary. If you enter the finals, you have to win the championship. If you are doomed to fail, it would be better to be done from the beginning. Alan Adams must not agree with his crazy idea, because even if you win the runner-up, whether it is the Champions League or the league, the dividends will be more than the teams with lower rankings after the season, not to mention that every extra game in the cup will get an extra bonus.

"It's not bad. There is a ten-day difference between the final of the Champions League and the last round of the league. We still have enough time to prepare for each other. "Tang En turned on the TV to study Manchester United's game video with Tang. Although as old opponents, it is necessary to understand each other, targeted observation is still indispensable.

"Bruce just called and hoped that you would like to express your opinion on the Champions League opponent..." Tang reminded.

"He?" Tang shook his head, "either something went wrong in his mind or his boss came up with the idea.  There are so many days left before the final of the Champions League. What should I talk about?"

"Maybe it's because of some personal grudges between you and Grant..."

"Then I can't talk about it. No, no, no in the future. "Tang Eun continued to shake his head, this time he was more determined than before. "Chelsea won the Champions League finals in a bad league and was questioned. Now they are in a strong morale. No one considers the losses of not being able to participate in the Champions League next season, and no one dares to mention them. At this time, I can't use words to stimulate them, cheer for others on fire, help in time, and add icing on the cake. If they are stimulated, we will be stunned. So..." He looked at Tang, "We don't mention them, no matter what hype news there is outside, we don't pay attention to it. At this time, do our own thing well. "

He finished saying this, but found Tang looking at him and smiling.

"Does there any rice grains that I didn't eat clean for dinner on my face?"

"No." Tang shook his head and smiled, "It's rare to hear you decide not to participate in a war of words, and I feel a little surprised."

"Hey, don't really think I'm a mad dog that bites everyone you see." Tang En rolled his eyes back.

The next day, Donne called Pierce Bruce. He told him that he did not intend to comment on Chelsea's entry into the Champions League final. He did not retell the words he said to Don to Bruce, but said that the team and his work focus recently are the league, and the opponents in the Champions League final were put aside. As for the league, this question is not a problem - winning the league championship. It is too late to celebrate in the whole city. Who cares about how Chelsea is? If you don't win the league championship, who dares to ask about this? Of course. Donne himself doesn't want the second result to be realized.

Other media, like what Don En said, the Champions League has not yet begun, and the most gimmick thing at the moment is undoubtedly the fierce competition for the league champions.

BBC5 and Sky Sports are both doing special projects about the final battle, hoping to attract TV audiences.

Other media have been guarding the training bases of the two teams all day long, trying their best to trigger a war of words between the two teams.

Everyone knows that Ferguson is a veteran in psychological warfare, while Tony Don is a rising star in this field. If the two of them have a wonderful verbal battle before the game, it will definitely be very selling points.

However, the biggest selling point this time is not the two head coaches, but a player named "David Beckham".

The last time Nottingham Forest played Manchester United at home in the league, Beckham was absent due to injury, so this was the first time he faced his old club directly in the Premier League, and it was also the first time he returned to Old Trafford as an opponent.

He just scored a key goal in the Champions League semi-finals to help Nottingham Forest reach the Champions League final. Compared with Manchester United, who was eliminated by Chelsea on the other side, it is natural that some Manchester United fans have any dissatisfaction.

The game was far from beginning, and all kinds of voices about him flew all over the sky.

Some people say they want to warmly welcome Beckham back to Old Trafford, while others say they want to make Beckham "looking" in the stands during the game. Some people feel that he is loyal to Manchester United, while others think that he is more hateful than Judas, because he is right and wrong. On the surface, he says how loyal he is to Manchester United, but in fact, he joins Nottingham Forest!

Even Ferguson was interviewed at a routine press conference. He was surrounded by many reporters to ask questions about Beckham.

Everyone knows who Beckham left Manchester United because, now that the two enemies reunited, what kind of sparks will come together?

Ferguson looked expressionless: "I wish him good luck."

"Sir Alex Ferguson, Beckham helped Forests to reach the Champions League final, while Manchester United was eliminated by Chelsea. Do you regret not recalling David again?" A reporter asked so nakedly.

"Why do I regret it? Manchester United now has so many excellent and more promising players. As for those who have left Manchester United, it is to leave. I will not be obsessed with the past. Otherwise, Manchester United would not have won so many championships." Ferguson's face became less good.

In fact, what he said is true and very reasonable. But it is not so nice to the ears of Beckham's supporters. No wonder people still think that Ferguson and Beckham are enemies who are jealous when they meet.

So what about Beckham?

"Mr. Done. Today's regular press conference, the media hopes that Beckham can attend." Miss Barbara Lucy reminded Done that as the head of the external relations department, she also thinks that it is better to let Beckham attend. But Done gave her the list George Wood and himself.

"Why?" Tang En pretended to be surprised.

"Mr. Done. You know the reason..." Miss Lucy smiled. She didn't take Done's trick.

"Okay. But there's no way." Tang En simply rejected the other party's request, "Let David go up and be interrogated? I don't want to affect the status of my main player before important games because of these boring flies."

Don Eun has the final say in this kind of thing. Barbara Lucy has no right to make a decision except to make suggestions. Since Don Eun does not agree, she can only let it go. She nodded and left.

Back on the training ground, Tang En observed Beckham for a while. From the surface, there was no abnormality at all. But is this true? Tang En didn't think so. Beckham's heart must have been overturned at this moment, right?

He has been at Real Madrid for four years and has never returned to Old Trafford as an opponent, nor has he become a direct enemy of Manchester United. So the experience now is his first experience.

In the first half of the season, before the home game with Manchester United, Beckham was injured, and Donn happened to put him out of the roster to avoid this embarrassment. Now Beckham is not injured and in good condition, and he has no reason to exclude him.

So……

Although the two had already considered the situation today when they signed the contract, it was not imminent. Donne suggested that Beckham write the contract that he could not play against Manchester United into the contract, but Beckham refused. Such a thing violated his professional ethics and does not mean that he would be happy to return to Old Trafford. As an opponent and enemy...

During the training interval, the players gathered together to chat and joke, while Beckham walked up to Donne alone.

"Can you talk?" he said.

Donn nodded.  Not surprised that Beckham came to find him.

The two of them found a slightly quiet corner. The others were following this place from the corner because they all knew who was the real focus of this game.

"Can I bring me in the regular press conference in the afternoon?" Beckham said straight to the point. His request surprised Tang En.

"Do you know? I just rejected Miss Barbara Lucy's decision to arrange your appearance at the press conference."

Beckham nodded, not surprised by Donn's actions, but he insisted on his decision: "I know what you think, Tony. But I still hope to go."

"Is it such a stupid question to be asked repeatedly by a group of flies: 'What do you think of returning to Old Trafford and being an enemy of the old club'?"

"If I don't give an answer, there are more rumors outside."

"You really want to go?" Donn looked at Beckham.

"I really want to go." Beckham also looked at Donn.

"Okay, you will go with me and George in the afternoon." Since the player himself had this intention, there was no need to stop him, but he added: "If the scene gets out of control then, I will take action."

Beckham smiled at him.

The media attending the press conference had already learned that Beckham would not attend the press conference, and was planning to leave the venue collectively after Don Eun came to embarrass him. Then they saw Don Eun appear in front of everyone with George Wood and... David Beckham.

"I know the protagonist today is not me." Tony Don said, looking at the excited faces below, then sat down. He stopped talking. He let the media aim at Beckham.

In fact, most questions are uninformed, just like Done told Beckham in the morning. But no matter how the question is, everyone is not concerned about how the question is, only how the answerer responds to the question.

But so far, Beckham has answered questions, taking care of the feelings of Forest fans and the mood of the vast majority of Manchester United fans. It is not as embarrassing as Tang En imagined. After all, he is a big star and has faced any difficult problems.

Someone raised the question of "will you take the initiative to apply to avoid the battle?" Beckham smiled slightly: "I don't have any problems myself. If the head coach needs me to go on, then go on. I don't need me, I can accept being a substitute."

In this way, the die-hard Manchester United fans were dispelled from him. And this was instructed by Don En, because before coming. Don En repeatedly warned Beckham that when he encountered a difficult problem, he would be pushed to him as the head coach.

So Tang En stood up very at the right time: "The question about the roster and starting lineup is not until the game. It is inconvenient to make it public." In one sentence, all the reporters who just turned their heads and wanted to ask him were blocked.

If allowed, these reporters wanted to collectively boo Tony Don't boo. Now they did not continue to tangle with Don't, but instead asked Beckham about various issues facing his old boss.
To be continued...
