Chapter 97 Chain Reaction

As Tang En told Tang, during training the next day, he did go to Wood to find out what happened at the party.

"Very good." Wood briefly told Tang En, "I chatted with him for a while and introduced him to his teammates. He drank wine and seemed to have become a different person, and everyone liked him very much."

Tang En pretended to be surprised: "Can you drink alcohol make him transform?"

Wood nodded: "He sang to us."

This is the question that Tang En is most concerned about: "How is he singing?"

"It's very ugly." Wood shattered Tang En's little fantasy with a stern face, "but everyone says it's very nice."

That's of course just to prevent Mathias from being sad...

In fact, after Fernandez took the stage, he hummed and whispered for a long time without anyone knowing that he was singing. No one understood the language he sang very well, and because his voice was too small, he didn't know whether it sounded nice... In short, he finished singing in self-indulgently, and then a group of people in the audience applauded and clapped hard.

After hearing Wood repeat his singing experience in detail, Don Eun quickly gave up the idea of ​​letting Fernandez sing in the locker room to cheer them up - it is okay to go to the enemy's locker room to sing and harass them, but I am afraid that Fernandez will not do it when he is awake...

Then, while Tang En chatted excitedly while the players were training, he leaned over and listened to what they were talking about.

He found that although Fernandez still had language barriers, he was no longer like before. When everyone discussed anything at the beginning, they hid far away. Instead, he came to him and looked very concerned. Although he couldn't understand, if everyone laughed, he would laugh as well.

This is a good phenomenon!

The stone in Tang En's heart finally landed.

He slowly moved back to the coach's side. He said to Tang Xiao: "Look, Tang. Sometimes he has to be a head coach like a kindergarten teacher, caring about everything."

"This is the first time I have seen the kindergarten teacher climbing trees and peeping."

"Ha! No matter what, the effect has been achieved. The next thing is how to integrate him into our tactical system." He patted Tang Di's shoulder, "This is your favorite coach's job."

In fact, in terms of tactics alone, there is nothing to bother. Matthias Fernandez is a player who can play on the wing and the middle. On the left, Donn just needs such a versatile player - he can attack on the wing alone. After dribbling and breaking through, he can also reach the middle, pass a straight pass, or shoot directly from a long shot, and at the same time give the wing to the left back Gareth Bale to assist.

There are only some places that need to be fine-tuned. For example, Fernandez cannot hold the ball for too long, otherwise he will be knocked out of bounds in the Premier League. It will also slow down the attack speed of the Forest team. You should know that the pace of the game of Nottingham Forest has always been known for its "fast".

So in order to truly integrate into the team, Fernandez must change his habit of holding the ball too sticky and learn a more direct way of playing football. This will not slow down the team's offensive speed. It can also reduce his chance of injury. But changing the style of playing football is something that a professional player doesn't know whether he is willing to accept...

If you don’t accept it, let him taste the cruelty of the Premier League!

Don Eun planned that when Fernandez's performance became more and more outstanding, he would inevitably be given priority attention from his opponents. If he did not change his way of playing football, he would wait to appear frequently on the injury list.

After solving Fernandez's case, Don En was confident that he would attack with all his might on the two fronts of the league and the European Champions League.    The sixth round of the league was the home game Tottenham Hotspur, and then the second round of the group stage of the Mid-Champions League next week, the away game Atletico Madrid.   The opponents in both games are not weak, Don En must be careful to deal with it.

It’s easy to talk about playing Tottenham at home. Relying on the advantage of home, it’s not difficult to defeat the team of Old Redknapp. Playing Atletico Madrid away is a journey full of unknown risks.

In the match against Tottenham, Don N sent a strong lineup with attack power, intending to resolve the battle in the first half and then save his strength to deal with Atletico Madrid.

What he didn't expect was Gareth Bell's injury.

The reason for Bell's injury is a bit nonsensical.

It was only nine minutes after the game started. After he got the ball on the left, no Tottenham players rushed to defend at the first time, so he planned to continue to dribble forward. At the same time, he played with his foot skills. When he faced the first Tottenham defender, he stopped and slowed down, intending to play a move before Robert Carlos' favorite ball behind his heel, which was a quick stop and changed direction...

His ball was very beautiful and he fooled Tottenham's Dos Santos very smoothly, but when he stopped and changed direction, he suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.

Dos Santos looked stunned. He didn't know what happened. He raised his hands immediately. He signaled that he had no foul. Not to mention that he had no foul, he didn't even have physical contact... He didn't want to take a card for no reason.

Gareth Bale rolled on the ground in pain with his knees. Then he put down one hand and summoned the referee and stretcher to come over.

Fleming followed two stretcher-carrying staff to the field, and the referee and Forest players had already surrounded Bale.

“Is there any physical contact?”

"What did that Mexican boy do to you?"

"What the hell is going on? Are you in good health?" The teammates surrounded him were talking. But they couldn't help.

Fleming yelled all the way and squeezed in. He only took a look and knew that something was wrong. He quickly dispersed the onlookers, signaled to come up with a stretcher, and carried Bell out before talking.

At the same time, he stood up and made a substitution gesture to Tang En on the other side of the field.

"It's so fucking damn..." Tang En cursed and sweared. He didn't expect that a simple extraordinary action would lead to such a result...

But Bell, Bell, what are you showing off? Just change direction honestly, and insist on stopping the ball with your heels...

He shouted Layton Barnes, who was sitting on the bench with an unhappy look. He didn't intend to let Barnes play in this game. He wanted Barnes to start in the game against Atletico Madrid and stabilize the defense.

So, Bell left the scene due to injury without any physical contact.

In this game, Forest finally relied on a header from Jikic in the first half. A counterattack with Abonraho just started in the second half and Ibisekic's long shot from outside the penalty area, defeating Tottenham 3-1.

Ibisevic scored his fourth goal of the season, one step further from his goal of twenty goals. Of course, he did not forget to slap someone in the fourth time. But Tang En couldn't be happy at all.

The day after the game, Donn learned about Bell's latest injury report from Fleming. He had a torn cruciate ligament on his right knee and was missing for at least seven months. He was basically reimbursed this season.

Tang En was stunned for a while before he realized.

At this time, he had no idea who he should scold. A large part of the reason for Bale's injury was himself. Because during the physical examination before the start of each season, there was no problem with his right knee. Every time Fleming said that Bale was very strong and he really couldn't tell that he was the thin and short monkey he used to be.

What the result is...

The team doctor is dereliction of duty? This is impossible.

God can only play with him.

"Okay..." Tang En murmured, "Luckily I didn't loan Matok before the season..."

He didn't know if it was wrong for his words of gladness at this time.

If Forests do not make up for the winter transfer period, then Joe Matok will be with Leiden Barnes to support Forests' left defense for a whole season.

Don Eun needs to think about the issue of making up for the money. If Forests enters the Champions League knockout in the second half of the season - almost certainly for Don Eun - then adding a left-back seems to be imperative. But in this way, after Bale returns to the team after he recovers from injury, there will be four people in this position to compete for a starting position. It is too intense and it also causes waste of personnel. He cannot always let Matok play the reserve team. Young players rely on their game to increase their experience and abilities, and they will always make people feel emotional...

If new defenders are not introduced, relying solely on whether Layton Barnes and Joe Matok can support the entire season, Don't feel assured now. What's more, there is a worse chance that he might be waiting for him ahead - what if one or both of Joe Matok and Joe Matok and Joe Matok are injured again?

This is such a headache!

If it must be said that someone was happy about Gareth Bale's injury, then Joe Matok would be the only candidate. Although he did not show such happiness, he also said in an interview that he was frustrated and regretful about Bell's injury.

But objectively, Bell's injury did give him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - if Ball was not injured, then the Forest's left-back position must be him and Barnes' rotation. Only in irrelevant games like the League Cup, he has the opportunity to start for the team.

Now that he has the opportunity to prove at a higher level that Si company gave his potential to -9 in the FM game. It's not because Nottingham Forest Club has a partnership with Si.

Don Eun then found Matok and talked to him about his subsequent intention to play in the league and the Champions League with the team. In fact, in these two games, Don Eun signed up for him, but he basically had no chance to play. Gareth, Bale and Leiden Barnes were in a stable state and rarely injured.

Don En mainly told him that he would choose not to introduce any players during the winter transfer period, so he and Barnes needed to play on the left for a season. Whether it is the league or the Champions League, he would be highly expected. He hoped that he could withstand the pressure. Don't let himself down. After all, he bought him after he was optimistic about his potential. He needed Matok to prove it to himself, and his original decision was not wrong.

Matok's answer was: "Don't worry, boss. I'm no longer a minor child." He said it right. He is already twenty years old and has obtained his driver's license.

A knee injury of at least seven months was the worst injury Gareth Bale suffered since playing football. What made him more painful was that this was not caused by the fierce collision, but because his knee could not withstand the pressure and injured his knee. This made him feel a sense of self-doubt - is his right knee so fragile that he is no longer used to the intense exercise of playing football?

Donn understands Bale's mood. He is worried about it. But he has no time to solve it himself. Because after playing Tottenham's game, he will lead the team to Madrid, Spain to prepare for the group match of the Champions League with Atletico Madrid.

Where can I go to the hospital to visit the little monkey who is lying on the hospital bed and is confused about his future?

But he thought of someone. Maybe he could help Bell get back up.

Nottingham Forest has a total of twenty-six first-team roster, but only twenty-five people are allowed to register for the Champions League each season. This season, Donn did not register for Van Nystruei, which was proposed by the Dutch himself. His reason is that he is old. He is often injured and his attendance rate is not guaranteed. Instead of occupying a position, it is better to give it to other younger teammates. Anyway, he will retire after the game is over, and he doesn't care whether he can still play in the Champions League. But other teammates must attach great importance to this Champions League place.

After Tang En persuaded him for a while, he fulfilled Van Nystruei's wish. He removed him from the registration list and filled in with Joe Matok's name. It seems that Van Nystruei saved Don Nystruei. If there was no episode at the beginning, now he must use Barnes to complete all five remaining group matches alone, and he cannot be injured or won cards. Even if he is in a low state and has poor physical fitness, he must bite the bullet.

Now Van Nistroy can help him once.

Before leaving Nottingham, he found the Dutch shooter after training. He hoped that he would go to the hospital to see Bell, and then use his own experience to inspire and comfort the little monkey. He cheered up early.

Van Nystruey knew what Donn meant, and he smiled and said, "I understand, boss. Just like what Ferguson said to me at the beginning."

When Van Nistrui planned to join Manchester United in 1999, he passed by Manchester United due to a serious knee injury. He even almost ended his career. At that time, Ferguson flew to the United States to visit him and told him about Manchester United captain Roy Keane's career, which also experienced the same serious injuries, but he eventually defeated the injury, returned to the stadium, and became Manchester United's flagship figure.

It was these words and Keane's example that gave Van Nystruei the confidence to continue fighting the injury. In the end, he successfully defeated his knee injury, returned to the stadium, and joined Manchester United as he wished.

At that time, Real Madrid was also pursuing him with Manchester United. It was finally made Van Nisstrui determined to join Manchester United because of this conversation. He realized that the Manchester United club is more humane, and Ferguson is obviously a head coach worthy of his future entrusting. He has a unique personality charm and attracts himself. He has no regrets in capturing cities and villages for such a head coach.

In this way, he refused Real Madrid and joined Manchester United.

Who would have thought that six years later, this master and apprentice who were like father and son would turn against each other? Let Tony Tangen get a bargain?

Things are really unpredictable.   Good luck makes people...

Now Donn hopes that Van Nistruy can play the role of Ferguson at the time. He is not worried that doing so will make Van Nistruy think of the grudges between him and Ferguson and become unhappy. Because he knows Van Nistruy. He is not the kind of person who hates everything and hates his previous life.

It is best to have Van Nisstruy take over this matter. First of all, he is the oldest player in the team and is highly respected by everyone. What he says is very important; second, he has had personal experience, which is more direct to Bale's heart than Donn's words without any pain, and it is easy to resonate with Bale. Third, Bale and Van Nisstruy's personal relationship is also very good. It will not be as cold as Eastwood and George Wood, so that no topic can continue.

Seeing that Van Nistruei agreed to help Bale rebuild his confidence, Donn breathed a sigh of relief and took the team to Madrid, Spain with confidence.

Another impact caused by Bale's injury is that it lacks attack ability on the left side.   When Bale was there, the assists on the left side were quite sharp.                                                                                                         

This also requires Mathias Fernandez to speed up the pace of integrating into the team's tactical system. Don Neng has no time to wait. The match against Atletico Madrid is more familiar with La Liga now than any one of the team. Fernandez, who is familiar with La Liga team, will be entrusted with important tasks and start. His performance largely determines whether Nottingham Forest can get the results he wants from Calderon Stadium.
