Chapter 144 The Supreme Emperor
"Friends, welcome to the quarterfinals of the European Champions League in the 10-11 season. We are now broadcasting this highly anticipated game for you at the City Stadium, with Nottingham Forest at home playing Barcelona!"
"Well, I said it was in the city stadium, but I believe there must be many people who think we are talking nonsense." The commenter next to me inserted.
The commentator laughed: "I couldn't believe it at first - the turf of Nottingham Forest's court was so bad... Half a week ago, Nottingham Forest Club said they were doing turf replacement and maintenance work. Who would have thought of changing out such a piece of turf in a few days? Are we watching the training game between Nottingham Forest and a certain amateur team?"
The guest coughed: "You say that, beware of Barcelona's protests. You actually compared them to 'amateur team'."
"Ha!" The commentator laughed dryly and quickly changed the topic. "It's still some time before the game begins, and we have already won the starting list of both sides. Barcelona's roster is not unexpected and continues the lineup of the last round. Speaking of which, Tony Donn was really wronged by the Catalan media - he really did not use any killing tactics to deal with Messi and others, Messi, Boyang... Even Iniesta, who had just recovered from injury, continued to start, and George Wood did not target Messi in the last game, and his performance was not eye-catching.
"Okay, let's take a look at Nottingham Forest... Pay attention! Compared with Barcelona's stability, Nottingham Forest has changed a lot!" The commentator raised the volume, feeling quite mysterious.
"First of all, there are great adjustments in the defense line. Layton Barnes is automatically suspended for one game in this game because of the accumulation of yellow cards. Joe Matok is the one who succeeds him. This is a star in England who is young, but has been selected for the English adult team twice. After Gareth Bale was injured, he was entrusted with important tasks by Donne and has many opportunities to start in the league. Currently, he and Barnes are in rotation to play left back. Now Barnes is suspended, so he is naturally the only one to replace him. This is not his first time playing in the Champions League. But I believe that he will still become the key breakthrough target for Barcelona, because they have Messi and Alves here. We can observe the performance of some young Joe Matok in this game, and hope he will not let Donne down..."
"At the centre-back, Pepe was suspended by a red card, and the person who replaced him was Woodgate. The landlord with him was Kompany, and the right back was also replaced. Rafinia is said to have suffered some injuries during training. Nkuru appeared in this position. He is 1.88 meters tall and can actually play as a central defender. He has played in both positions in the league.
"In the midfield, Fernandez was suspended for accumulating yellow cards like Barnes. Donn arranged for Lennon to play on the left side and Bentley on the right side. Cohen did not appear in the starting list, which was not surprising. The middle side was still the partner of George Wood and Thiago. Since Donn started to double the midfield, Thiago has completely found his second spring. Shahin did not start in this game. Because Tony Donn did not use the 451 he liked very much recently, he returned to the old path of 442. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, the highlight is here!"
"Let's see who are the two forwards who started this game?!"
“Abanglaho!”
The commenter cooperated with him to comment: "There is no problem, Abanglaho is very fast. If Tony Donn wants to fight back, he is a very useful player. Eastwood was also injured in training and could not participate in this game. There are only a few forwards to choose from..."
"It's right. But they still have Ibissevic. The one who scored two goals in a row at the Camp Nou Stadium. If the last one was not blown by the referee, he might help the Forest team win the Super Ibis! But he is not in the starting list! Yes, you heard it right, he is not in the starting list. And he is not injured. He is as strong as a bull, and in good condition can capture Camp Nou. But he is not in the starting list. Why is he not in the starting list? We don't know why he is not in the starting list. Maybe the Tony Donn will know that in the stands. I believe that if Nottingham Forest loses the game after this game and is eliminated, he will definitely be bombarded by the media with this question. After saying so much nonsense, who is the one who replaces Ibissevic?"
Aaron Mitchel's avatar and name were shown on the screen.
"Yes, this kid. Aaron Mitchel. This young forward who was born on May 5, 1990 and about to be over 21 years old, was only transferred from the reserve team to the first team in January this season by Tony Donn. He played five league substitutes and started once. The total time was 117 minutes. The Champions League did not play, and the FA Cup started once. No goals were scored. His record was as clean as a piece of white paper. This is not a good thing for a striker. More importantly, before becoming a striker, it is more important.
Aaron Mitcher once played for the youth team for seven years, and he was playing goalkeeper for one year... He didn't start playing forward at the suggestion of Don't and then remained unknown. We don't have any information on him at the hands of the Tsai, maybe Tony Don't have either. He is neither the one who scores the most goals in the youth team, nor is he an efficient killer who scores goals in the reserve league. We don't know anything except that he is very tall. Why did Tony Don start such a person in such an important game?"
The commentator's doubts are also the doubts of all media reporters. According to the practice of Tony Tangen not putting the starting roster until the last moment, they just got the Forest team's lineup list, and everyone was the name "Thunder" on the starting forward.
The English journalists are better. At least they know who the person who was written "Aron Mitchel" is because he just started in the last round of the Premier League, although he made no contribution. The Spanish Catalonian media were confused and they even asked: "Is there such a person in the first team of Nottingham Forest?"
Don't think that the English media will nod after knowing who Aaron Mitchel is, and then say, "Oh, OK."
In fact, their reaction was-
"Is Tony Donn crazy? What is he doing? Ibissevic is not injured and has no problem in his condition. Why do you need this young boy?"
"I know. �
"No, I think it's even more elusive since he had a heart disease. In the past, he was like a passionate young man, but now he is a sinister and cunning middle-aged man."
“Is menopause here?”
"I think he laid the groundwork for the failure of this game. Once he lost the ball, he could put the blame on this kid - 'I have high expectations for him, but his performance...everyone has seen it!"
"You all seem to know Tony Done very well." Pierce Bruce, who had been silent, finally couldn't help but retort.
"Oh, see who is here. The Pierce Bruce reporter who knows Tony Don best. So do you know some insider information?"
Bruce shook his head awkwardly: "I don't know either..."
A burst of laughter rang out in the crowd: "You don't know either? There were so many surprises today. I thought Mr. Tony Done would reveal some exclusive news to you!"
"Anyway, Tony Donn is not the kind of coach who will put the blame on the players after the game is lost." Bruce doesn't understand tactical matters. But Tony Donn still thinks he knows better than these people. "He only takes responsibility on himself. I haven't seen a few such head coaches."
The reporters felt bored when they saw Bruce so seriously - everyone was joking, it would be boring if you discuss it seriously, and you would lose if you are serious!
A group of people took Tony Donn with why he used Aaron Mitchel instead of Ibisevic's questions to spread, and they were ready to pay attention to the game that started for a while.
The media outside will definitely look at Aaron Mitcher's game performance with tinted glasses, deliberately picking out bones from the eggs. But in the home team's locker room, Mitcher did not feel any strange atmosphere.
This is a Champions League quarterfinals. He is a member of the team, that's all.
Tang is explaining the tactics in the game and everyone's precautions for them for the last time.
After finishing the talk, Tang suddenly turned on the TV and DVD player and said he wanted to watch the video for the players.
This surprised many people. They have watched the Barcelona game video countless times, and they have already understood this opponent for a long time. There is no need to watch any videos when they appear in ten minutes.
"This is not analyzing the video of the opponent." Tang explained. Then he pressed the play button.
Suddenly, the noise that only happened on the court came to my face was not like it was coming from the small screen of the TV stand.
"...Offside? Is this goal offside?... Barcelona scored a goal! A beautiful counterattack! The players of Nottingham Forest could not believe their eyes. The referee first blew one of their goals, and then he was judged to be valid for Barcelona's goal. The situation reversed in an instant!... Tony Donn and the fourth official had a fierce conflict on the sidelines. He looked furious. If he imitated NBA, he would have installed a microphone for every coach... Red card! Tony Donn was punished by the referee to the stands! The game suddenly climaxed! Nottingham Forest players surrounded the referee, but they could not change his mind. After Pepe was sent off by the red card, their head coach Tony Donn was kicked out of the court again!"
Naturally, the scene of the game in the final stage was a mess on the screen.
After the video was played, Tang Cai said, "Tony asked me to show you this video. He hopes that you don't forget how the other party treated us in the last game and how we were treated. We are slightly inferior in terms of strength in this game. But he hopes that you put aside the gap in strength, teach your opponent a lesson, and give those who hope we lose... good-looking!"
Although Tang tried his best and tried very hard to make himself passionate, he was not Tang En after all, and the effect of his words would be reduced. Fortunately, the players were all angry by the video just now. Because it made them recall the last moment of the first round between the two sides, no one would feel comfortable after experiencing such a frustrating failure.
In fact, each of them had a fire in their hearts. A week of closed training did not let the fire go out gradually. Instead, it burned. Because Tony Donne would always use this matter this week. He told them that he was insulted on the away game, so he had to take revenge when he returned to home.
Now it's time to let this group of anger burst out!
The man sitting in the stands took revenge for all this today. He has been planning for a week and he is not in the locker room until now, but his influence is still there.
From renovating the training ground and issuing a notice of changing the turf in the city stadium. To constantly fighting verbal battles with Barcelona, repeatedly pushing them to UEFA's bed, reminding the public that UEFA and Barcelona are closely related. To change the forward, a young player who is completely unfamiliar with Barcelona is used to complete the last catalysis with video in the locker room. He calculated everything, and now everything is ready, but the east wind is not available.
If someone thinks that Tony Donn is suspended, the Nottingham Forest is over and becomes a piece of sand. Then they are very wrong!
In this game, he is no longer as simple as the king of Nottingham Forest. He is the Supreme Emperor of Nottingham Forest...
Even if he is not in the position of head coach, he can still control every detail of the team.
When the whole Barcelona team walked out of the corridor, in Tony Don't's eyes, they had actually embarked on the road to hell.
Hello, Mr. Guardiola, do you see the red color in front of you? Not that is our Nottingham Forest fans, it is the red lava gushing out of the eighteen layers of hell! It erupts and jumps in front of your eyes, do you feel the heat coming to your face?
