Chapter 94 Coach Killer

When Tony Donn and Carl Spike finished the verbal battle, the national team's game came to an end. The players returned to their respective clubs and began preparing for the league and cup games.

On September 15, Nottingham Forest will visit Manchester to challenge Manchester City.

On September 17, they returned to their home court to play in the Champions League, and their opponent was the Celtics, a powerful Soviet Super League team.

The league with Manchester City is very eye-catching because of the two teams' feud over the past two years.

Bentner is now the leading striker of Manchester City. He is a strong player in Manchester. Although the team's performance has not improved much, he personally gained a lot of benefits from that transfer. The UAE boss can speculate on coaches, but he will not speculate on a forward who can score goals for no reason.

Ashley Young is doing quite well at Manchester City, basically the main player on the wing. Even though he left the Forest, his assists are still among the best in each season. It can be said to be a model figure of "gold shines everywhere". Manchester media once satirized Tony Donn: "Such a good player will sell it if he says he sells it. He really thinks he is the king of Nottingham Forest? This paranoid!"

The good performance of these players is in sharp contrast to the decline in Nottingham Forest's performance in the past two seasons. In the season when Tony Donn was recuperating from heart disease for half a year, some media expressed their gratitude for Bentner and Ashley Young, who "escaped" Nottingham Forest Hell in time.

But the feng shui turns. After those two seasons, Nottingham Forest returned to the ranks of championships. This time, he faced Manchester City again, even if it was away, Tony Don was not willing to lose.

Before the game, the personal grudges about him and Bentner were put on the table again. Tang En felt that these media were very boring. What is the need to talk about these things about Chen Guzi rotting sesame?

In an interview before the game, Bentner said: "Every time I break into the team that wears red clothes, I get excited."

Some people analyzed that he was trying to please Manchester City fans. Because Manchester United was wearing red clothes. But in fact, more people believed that he was talking about Nottingham Forest. After all, he has firmly taken the position of the main striker at Manchester City. To please fans is just when he joined the team, so how can he need to show his loyalty at this time?

Tang En's response to this was silent. He felt that he could not make much trouble with a traitor who left, as it would be too shameful. It would be better to use the actual match result as a weapon for counterattack.

But his general Gareth Bale jumped out and fired back at Bentner unhappily: "He should think clearly where he should be now without Nottingham Forest. Maybe he plays as a substitute at Arsenal, and then keeps shouting that he will transfer if he doesn't give a chance."

This irony is so profound, quite like Tony Tangen's style. Bell has been following Tangen for so many years and has been good at talking. It is no longer the young boy who was nervous when he followed Ashley Yang to visit the Dutch kilns.

George Wood did not participate in the battle of words between the two teams. He was busy discussing the new contract with the club.

After AC Milan's rebellion, Tony Donn realized that he had to negotiate a new contract with Wood, and at this time he gave the team and fans a lot of confidence.

So he threw Billy Woods, whom he didn't want to face, to Allen Adams, and asked the two foxes to discuss the contract renewal.

It is said that if the new contract is successfully signed, George Wood will play in Nottingham Forest until 2015. By then, he is twenty-nine years old, and it will be just another new contract until he retires with the Forests.

This contract will greatly improve George Wood's treatment in the team and consolidate his current position as the highest salary in the team. This time, neither Allen Adams nor Tony Don't plan to be stingy in salary. What do you say? George Wood is also the main member of the fourth place in the World Cup. After the World Cup, his reputation is different now. If he doesn't spend a lot of money, how can Wood stay here wholeheartedly? How can he reflect the extraordinary and unique value of this captain?

There is insider information that he will get a high contract with a weekly salary of 130,000 pounds, which is comparable to world-class stars such as Manchester United's Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Liverpool's Gerrard.

His goal of entering professional football was also achieved - his weekly salary was 120,000 yuan, and his current contract was 10,000 yuan more than his ideal.

No one in Nottingham Forest has objected to George Wood's contract. Everyone knows what Wood means to this team. As the team's captain, midfielder core, and flag, he deserves this contract that is far beyond the salary level of other people in the team.

And everyone else knew it. If he wanted to follow George Wood to sign a contract of this level, maybe the boss would list him for sale after he had considered it very seriously...

George Wood's contract renewal negotiations began in full swing since the AC Milan incident. Alan Adams and Billy Woods bargained for several rounds, and finally finalized the last word and punctuation mark on the contract.

Then in the first two days of the match against Manchester City, Nottingham Forest officially announced to the outside world:

Nottingham Forest captain George Wood, after clarifying rumors that he had an affair with AC Milan, proudly signed his name this morning on a new five-year contract. He will continue to play for Nottingham Forest until June 30, 2015.

Wood and Tony Donn then attended the press conference for the renewal.

At the meeting, Wood expressed his loyalty to all Nottingham Forest fans seriously: "I will play in Nottingham Forest until I retire, even if she is unfortunately relegated."

Don Eun patted him lightly: "Don't say unlucky words, George. How could the Forest be downgraded?"

The intimate actions of the two made the reporters present laugh. This performance completely shattered any rumors that Wood and Don Eun had conflicts.

Afterwards, Pierce Bruce wrote in a comment about the renewal: "After half a month of waiting, all the fans of Nottingham Forest can finally breathe a good time and have a good night's sleep - they don't have to worry about waking up and reading the newspaper before they find that their captain went to faraway Italy. George Wood promised that he would play here until he retired. He expressed his love for the team. The story of summer has become a farce. We have reason to look forward to the day when George Wood retired with the Forest!"

Donne chose to announce the successful renewal of the club and Wood before Manchester City's game. It was also thought-provoked.

He wants to send such a signal to all opponents. Of course, including Manchester City, Nottingham Forest is still united, and the enemy cannot take the opportunity to make trouble. The flag-maker renewed his contract with the team until 2015, which can greatly inspire the team's morale and confidence. No one will be harassed by reporters who like to ask and ask for advice and gossip during training. Everyone is thinking about how to win the game.

Of course, Don Eun did not forget to continue to launch his best psychological warfare offensive - not targeting the little Bentner, but the team's head coach Kevin Keegan:

"I really sympathize with him very, very much.   I used to think that the head coach of the English football team was the hardest to do.    Now I realized my mistake - in fact, the head coach of Manchester City is! Look at what his ex Mark Hughes said after class? 'I can finally have a good night'! It's so pitiful... I can't even sleep well as a head coach in Manchester City. Actually, Kevin has wanted to leave that place for a long time? He is now tug of war with Manchester City, and the rope that is being pulled around is Manchester City... Ah.   Who is the most pitiful person? I bet it's not Kevin Keegan, who should I sympathize with?"

Manchester City had a poor performance last season. At the beginning of the new season, Toto Cup suffered another tragic defeat and lost the qualification to play in European competitions this season. The empty result is simply unforgivable for the Manchester City boss who invested at least 300 million in the transfer market in two years.

With such results, if any other team is changed, the club will have the head coach without hesitation. Or some head coaches themselves cannot bear this huge pressure and resign voluntarily.

But at Manchester City, the situation is very special.

Keegan's reluctance to resign has a lot to do with the contract that Manchester City signed with him. After Mark Hughes left, Kevin Keegan returned to Manchester City with a high profile. The club valued his reputation and coaching ability in English football and gave him a valuable contract - an annual salary of 3.8 million pounds! It is almost on par with Ferguson and Wenger, two legendary coaches in the Premier League.

The contract was signed for four years. And now it has only been one year. If the club must fire Keegan... It's great, I will pay for the remaining three years of salary of 11.4 million pounds.

Anyway, Keegan has a good temper and has a good mentality. She won’t suddenly suffer from heart attacks and faint on the sidelines like a fool due to excessive pressure...

So he was naturally mixed up in this position. When will Manchester City club be able to grit their teeth and pay the salary of more than 10 million pounds in one lump sum? He left immediately.

How could anyone not know about Keegan’s abacus? But everyone is insider, and no one mentions such hurtful words. As the saying goes, “Don’t hit someone in the face”.

Tony Tang Encai didn't care. He opened his mouth, and everything he could say and couldn't say was like pouring beans on bamboo tubes, and he sprayed all out...

So Kevin Keegan's face turned dark when he heard his words.

The head coach's loyalty to a team will directly affect the team's fighting spirit, morale, and performance. It's not that Tony Tangen doesn't understand this truth, so he must have deliberately yelled out such things.

Everyone knows it as a coach. Don’t think of professional players too smart. As a coach, if you want to manage these players in the way of adults, you will be furious. In the end, it is a paternalistic management method, and it is the most appropriate to treat them as children.

Players often have a blind trust in the head coach. They are willing to believe in the various postures and expressions that the head coach makes on weekdays, and do not consider whether this statement or practice is reasonable.

Although Kevin Keegan's performance is very poor, he relies on his good-looking management and popularity, and has a bad relationship with senior management. He has a high reputation within the team. A group of players from all sizes listen to him. Every time the media reports that the club's senior management is dissatisfied with Kevin Keegan's performance, there are even players who come forward to defend their head coach, saying that the club should give an excellent head coach enough patience. Keegan has long proved his level in his previous coaching experience. All he needs now is time. A club always frequently changes head coaches cannot solve any problem...

Winning up the locker room is the most effective way Keegan can compete with the club's senior management.

Now Tang En's words are obviously to differentiate the cohesion between him and the players. This move is vicious...

If you say it a little more viciously, you will scold Tony. Don Eun for being despicable and shameless, and it is not too much.

As a colleague, how can you be so bad about other people's jobs?

But Tang En doesn't think so. He and Keegan are not close or friends, and Keegan's life and death are related to his life? What is it to expose other people's scars for my victory? He has no psychological burden at all.

As soon as these words were said, it really caused a stir in the media. Kevin Keegan had to stand up and defy the rumors, saying that he had stayed in the club and had nothing to do with salary, just because he loved Manchester City and wanted to lead the team out of the predicament...

A reporter asked ignorantly: "If your grades continue to decline, will you consider resigning voluntarily?"

Keegan frowned and thought about it for a while and bypassed the topic: "I never think about what hasn't happened yet. I firmly believe in the future of the team, and things have not been broken to that point."

In the end, he did not say that he would quit voluntarily.

Tang En's words made Keegan very embarrassed. Kevin Keegan was so angry. Carl Spike teased on the show: "I dare to make a bet with Tony Tang En this time - if Keegan appears in front of him now, he will definitely beat him up!"

They met soon.

In the fourth round of the league, Nottingham Forest challenged Manchester City away. Kevin Keegan doesn't have to beat Done privately. He now has a chance to beat Done openly. In an interview before the game, he even repeatedly emphasized this sentence: "We will definitely win! We will definitely!"

Tang En's response to this was very calm. He only said one sentence: "He is crazy."

But if we include Corymore, who was initially disgraceful to leave the Forest coach's seat because he wanted to give up his seat to Don't, and McLaren, who was constantly cursed by Tony Don't, who was "a more appropriate assistant coach than a head coach" since he came on stage, there would be as many as five...
