Chapter 48 After the goal is achieved in advance

"The match ends! 3:0! Nottingham Forest won the final victory!"

When the commentator shouted this, the TV camera did not continue to be left to the players on the field, nor even to Balotelli, who scored twice in the game. Instead, it quickly cut to the coach's seat and gave Nottingham Forest head coach Tony Donn a close-up shot.

In the camera, Don An had just gotten up from his seat. The assistant coach Chris Lack next to him patted him on the shoulder. Then Don An turned around and walked towards Wolves head coach Alan Paduce, who wanted to shake hands with the other party. This was the post-match etiquette.

Since his team has been relegated, Paduce has no complaints or dissatisfaction with losing to Don En at home. On the contrary, when he held Don En's hand, he talked with Don En a few words, telling him that he didn't want him to retire.

Tang En just smiled and said nothing.

He has heard a lot of similar words during this period. Some people come from the heart, while others come from etiquette. Tang En doesn't care about what is sincerity and etiquette. Anyway, he will say goodbye completely in one game. He doesn't care why others think in his heart. Now he will no longer roll up his sleeves to slap anyone in the face.

Don't leave Paduce, Don't return to his team.

What comes to him is Chris Lack's smile: "Latest news, Tony! Manchester City lost!"

Seeing him dancing, Don Eun laughed. This result means that they don’t need to compete with Manchester United in the last game, and they will enter next season’s Europa League ahead of schedule.

"I don't care what I will play in the next game anymore, Tony, even if I lose, haha!" Chris Lak shouted excitedly in the noisy stadium.

"That won't work, David." Tang En shook his head. "My coaching career cannot end in failure."

David Chris Lack knew that this person's competitive spirit was still there, and he didn't say anything, he just laughed.

Soon, news of Manchester City losing the game spread throughout the Forests. Even the Wolves' home court, Molyneux Stadium, also broadcast the news on live broadcast, which was considered a congratulations to the Forests. Only those who have been relegated have this state of mind and congratulate their opponents.

After hearing the news, the players of the Forest team all hugged each other excitedly, which meant that their full half-season of efforts were not in vain.

But another assistant coach, Freddy Eastwood, had another worry.

"I'm worried that if this continues, our people will lose their fighting spirit in the last round of the league."

He said this to Tang En.

His words also make sense. Because qualifying for European competitions is the highest goal of Forest’s team in the past half season, the team has been striving towards this goal. Once the goal is achieved, everyone’s enthusiasm will blow up, how can we play in the last round of the league?

Look at the Wolves in this game. That is simply the best "role model". The Wolves, who lost their hope of relegation and were relegated early, had no fighting spirit in this game. Before the Forest scored the first goal, they also resisted symbolically. When Balotelli broke through the Wolves' gate with a free kick, their morale plummeted. They surrendered.

You should know that the opponent in the last game of Forest was not a team of Wolves, but Manchester United, currently ranked first.

Donn was worried about Eastwood but didn't care. He couldn't always let the team walk on the single-plank bridge above the abyss and kept putting the team under high pressure. It might not be a good thing. If there is no motivation, there is no motivation. If the team wants to win, it doesn't have to rely on force.

When playing Manchester United, the carrot "qualification to participate in European competitions" was not tested, which encouraged the spirit of fighting in front. They practiced for two weeks and never put their background under "must beat Manchester United to be qualified for the European League."

But what Eastwood said was not completely impossible. In the next week, one of the tasks of Don and the coaching staff was to prevent this from happening.

"Don't worry, Freddy. No matter what problems you encounter, there is always a solution." Donn patted Eastwood on the shoulder. "Enjoy the joy of victory now, don't frown."

Eastwood glanced at Tang En: "I believe you say this." He refers to Tang En's words, "No matter what problems you encounter, there is always a solution." "But what after you leave?"

Eastwood didn't know what Tang was going to take over. Even if he knew, he would probably be skeptical of Tang's ability.

I'm afraid that except Tang En himself, no one in this world will have hope for Tang.

"I'm not the only qualified head coach in this world." Donn answered Eastwood.

Unexpectedly, Eastwood shook his head very seriously: "There is only one Tony Donn in the world."

"We have once again qualified to participate in European competitions next season, and this result is compared to half a season ago.                                                                                                                  �

"When we describe a star who is very powerful, we always say that he has the ability to change the results of the game by one person. Now I want to give this sentence to Tony Donne. He deserves it. Yes, what changes have happened today's Nottingham Forest and Nottingham Forest half a season ago? There is one more Chen Jian, and another he is brought by him. Chen Jian is also brought by him. Victory and the ranking of the sixth in the league is also known. From a very early age, we have actually known this fact - Tony Donne is a person who can bring victory and championship to the team. He has the ability to change the results of the season by one person."

After the Wolves' game ended, the number of commemorative activities for Tang En also increased. No one was willing to let Tang En go, so there were more and more voices of various retention, but they also knew that they could not change anything except making such a sound.

I am asking for votes from Piao Tianwen, hoping to get a chance to bid farewell to Tang En on site.

Fans of Nottingham Forest are proud that they have such an outstanding landlord coach. There are even some smart merchants who have launched a service project with Tony Tangen. In the square outside the Crimson Field, there are vendors who have put up a lifelike portrait of Tangen. They are the same as real people, for fans and tourists to take photos with Tangen. The business is actually very prosperous. Many people come here to take photos with "Tony Tangen" every day, and you can even see some black-haired and yellow-skinned visitors from afar.

The people who are paying attention to this game are not only local media in England, but also media around the world. This game was positioned by the Premier League Committee to live broadcast the game around the world. Now the Premier League broadcast has covered 256 countries and regions, and the number of viewers has exceeded one billion. This decision is equivalent to allowing one billion fans around the world to witness Tony Donn's last game. As a head coach, this "farewell ceremony" is really high-quality.

So many countries started advertising before this game. Promote how unique this game is.

"The farewell battle of the most successful head coach in England's history!"

"The grudges and hatreds between Tony Donn and Mourinho, the two most personal head coaches!"

“The ownership of the league championship trophy!”

There are several gimmicks in this game, one is Donne's retirement, the other is that he and Mourinho have been in a feud for more than ten years, and the other is whether Manchester United can successfully win the league championship. Although Manchester United is now ranked first, they are only one point ahead of Arsenal, the second-placed Arsenal. If they lose to Donne's Forest in the last round and Arsenal defeats Fulham, Arsenal will replace it and become the league champion this season.

This is obviously not the result Mourinho and Manchester United fans want to see.

So the local media in Nottingham only care about Tony Donne. Manchester media are paying attention to whether Mourinho's team can successfully defend the title, which is rare for them to express pessimism - they think it is impossible to hope Nottingham Forest in this game, because neither their fans nor the team want their legendary coach to bid farewell to their jobs with a failure.

So those who think that Forests will lose motivation if they get the UEFA Europa League qualification one round ahead of schedule are stupid. This game will be a very serious test for Manchester United.

Mourinho also thinks so. He looked very serious when interviewed by reporters. He didn't feel relaxed at all because his team is now ranked first. He said this when talking about the game: "...I don't like predicting the game, but I think my team will beat them (Nottingham Forest)...."

This sounds a bit forced, but it is more like boosting morale than really being firm in mind.

But who knows that it is not a supreme plan for Mourinho?

Eastwood was worried that it was not realized at all.  The players were not able to see in daily training.   On the contrary, they were very motivated, and no one seemed to want to miss such an important game because of poor performance in training.

This made Eastwood sigh again that his head's influence was so great, and it also made him even more worried that after his head left, who else could control these players...

The speculation outside was fierce, and the people around him were so worried, but Tang En seemed to care nothing. As usual, every day of the past ten years, he handed over the specific training to the coaching team members and became a hand-off manager.

He himself is a bit like an old man whose retirement date is approaching. He goes to his office to make a cup of tea and walks his birds everywhere.

He doesn't walk birds or make tea. He just needs to stand on the sidelines, and there is basically nothing he needs to do. In fact, he has been busy. The strategies and tactics needed to deal with Manchester United were made before. That was when he was busy, and now he is just training and execution. He doesn't need him much. He is still busy on the day of the game.

What Tang En needs to do now is wear sunglasses, stand by the training ground, and watch the players train.

However, he has been watching this training for sixteen years, and now sometimes he can also make things difficult for him.

When he just coached this team, he can't remember who the players were. Now he doesn't know how to train the team, and he knows little about the players. At that time, he didn't expect that he would become the most successful head coach in the history of this country.

If someone knew that the head coach's true identity was actually an ordinary Chinese fan who knew nothing, what would he think?

This kind of secret is indeed to be brought into the grave...

Tang En suddenly had an association. Are there really time travelers outside of himself in this world? Are there any geniuses from the future who have made many outstanding contributions?

This question is really interesting, such as why Wenger has such a accurate view of young players? Is he just a time traveler who is hidden very deeply?

Tang En thought about it so much that he thought it far away. He went to the sky for a long time before he came to his senses and found that the team's training was almost over.

Assistant coaches Chris Lark and Eastwood gathered the players together, and in the end they still have to listen to the head coach say a few words.

In fact, this program will not be available after every training class. However, as Tang En leaves approaches, the players have strong requirements. So after the training every day has ended recently, Tang En has to say a few words, whether it is commenting on training or talking about other things.

Just as Gareth Bell said, "I just like to hear the voice of the leader."

Today is no exception.

When Donn saw Eastwood waving to him, he walked over.

"Actually, I've finished talking about what I should say these days. I really can't think of anything else to say." Tang En spread his hands. But it wouldn't be possible to say nothing.

"The last round of the league is three days left. Look at our daily training, I think we are ready. To be honest, I don't doubt that you have lost motivation after completing the season goals ahead of schedule. Have you lost motivation?"

He asked as he looked at the players around him.

"How is it possible, boss?" Gareth Bale answered first, and everyone else nodded in agreement. "We want to give you another victory, boss!"

Tang En grinned and laughed happily. At the same time, he slapped hard: "Isn't this over? What else should I say? Disband!"

Looking at the players' astonished expressions, Tang En smiled more and more proudly.

He finally didn't have to rack his brains to satisfy the players. He was very enthusiastic when he was young, and he also liked to use passionate words to motivate the players, and he felt so handsome. Now that he is old, he doesn't like this too ostentatious form of expression, but prefers silence and uses actions to show his strength.

It’s not as good as a single action if you really want to deal with the enemy’s words, you’ll be scolded for a long time and you’d be able to slap your sleeves and shave them all. It’s better to roll up your sleeves and shave them with big ears. It’s effective.
