Chapter 157: Crimson's New Beginning

Chapter 157: The New Beginning of Crimson Red

When Tang En was having sex with Shania in Los Angeles, the negotiations between Allen and Hong Kong Cheung Kong Industrial Group also entered the final stage. After a year of repeated negotiations, the two sides had basically reached an agreement. Cheung Kong Industrial obtained the development and management rights of the land around the new Clifton Nottingham Forest at the lowest price, while Nottingham Forest does not have to pay for the development of the new stadium and other packages of plans. After the Chinese have operated for 30 years, the operating rights of these places will be gradually returned to the Nottingham Forest Club.

The deadline proposed by Changjiang Industrial was fifty years, and Allen thought it was too greedy and unreasonable. The negotiations between the two sides were deadlocked. After a period of Cold War, Allen was shameless and took the initiative to come to the door, hoping to reopen the negotiations. Who made it happen that only Chinese people seemed to be rich in the environment of the world financial crisis...

The world economic environment is gradually improving, and the resumption of the development plan in the Clifton area has also added many job opportunities to the Nottingham area. The Nottingham City Government has given the greatest support to this plan.

You should know that Nottingham is not a city with good security, and its crime rate has always been higher than the top British people. The financial crisis has increased many unemployed people, and they have become an instability factor in this society. The Nottingham Forest Club and Hong Kong Cheung Kong Industrial were able to finally reach an agreement to provide nearly tens of thousands of jobs for this place, which is indeed a great thing that will make the mayor's strengths breathe. Can he not support it?

Finally, the day before Don En decided to return to Nottingham, representatives of both parties formally signed a contract in Hong Kong. The next day, the first group of staff of Cheung Kong Industrial set off in the UK and began their overseas expansion plans.

The entire Clifton development plan is expected to take eight years to make it initially form. A single stadium is expected to be built for two to three years. If everything goes well, the Nottingham Forest will officially move into the new stadium in the 2014-2015 season.

Originally, in order to show sincerity in cooperation, Nottingham Forest Club planned to give the naming rights of the new stadium to the Changjiang Industrial Group, where the investment and construction was built, which was called the "Changjiang Stadium".

However, Li Zeju, who is currently the chairman of the board of directors of Changjiang Industrial Group, rejected the name. He gave the new stadium a name that could be liked by the locals than "Changjiang", and it was also very in line with the Chinese background of investors.

red_stadium.

Red court.

Red is naturally the main color of Nottingham Forest, and red is also a traditional representative color of China.

When the new stadium of Arsenal Club was named "Elder Stadium", many fans protested because of this name that had nothing to do with Arsenal. However, the voices of the fans were obviously not as good as the chiefs' petrodollars. But Li Zeju is much smarter, and his name is very pleasing. Whether it is Nottingham or Chinese, they will like it.

Judging from the new stadium renderings given by Changjiang Industrial Group, the main color of the stadium will be like the jersey of Nottingham Forest, with a slightly dark red - dark red. Adhering to the rectangular style of most stadiums in England, it can accommodate 60,000 people to watch the ball at the same time, and 60,000 seats with backrests are reserved. At the same time, the expansion space is retained, and it can be expanded to a capacity of 680,000. There are luxurious private rooms above the stands on the east and west sides, but this time it is a real independent private room. It is not a small and simple "security room" like a city stadium. It is expected that there are 220 luxurious private rooms that can accommodate more than 440 VIPs to watch the game.

The North Stand is still the place where the home team's most die-hard fans gather, and the name "Robin Hood" will still be carved above the stand. It inspires the team and the fans to fight like the thief Robin Hood.

The stadium has a retractable ceiling, and even the weather will not affect the matches held in the stadium. Good geothermal and drainage systems ensure that the venue conditions are always in the best condition. This time, there will definitely be no dilemma of Nottingham Forest at home against Barcelona at the European Champions League quarter-finals last season.

At this moment. Guardiola was in tears...

There is also a spacious corridor for both home and guest teams to enter the venue at the same time, as well as a spacious, bright, clean and tidy modern locker room. Compared with the locker room in the city court that is obviously in the style of the 1980s, it is like a public toilet...

There are four huge LCD TV screens on each side of the stands. They can play the latest close matches, scores, and goals replays in real time.

The transportation network with up to twelve entrances and exits and links to the stadium can ensure that 60,000 people leave within ten minutes after the game. Even if they encounter special situations, they can be busy without being messy, nervous and orderly.

Such a stadium is completely designed and built in accordance with the standards of UEFA's five-star stadiums and once completed, UEFA will officially award it the honorary title of "five-star stadium" after inspection.

At that time, Nottingham Forest Club can officially apply to host the finals of the UEFA Champions League and the League Cup.

After having brilliant historical achievements, a brand new five-star stadium is about to usher in. Nottingham Forest is making great strides towards the goal of "rich families".

Donne spent two wonderful weeks with Shania in Los Angeles. She reluctantly bid farewell to the sunshine and beautiful wife in Los Angeles and returned to Nottingham. The new season's work is about to begin again.

When the team regrouped, Tang En first explained to the players the reason for Tang's departure, but there was no conflict as some media reported. Then he had to start rescheduling his work and take over the stall that Tang left behind.

When Tang was still in the team, it was not Tang En's turn to worry about daily training. Tang En is a person with such a deep understanding of Tang En. He knew what to do without Tang En's speaking. And he did a good job.

Having such an assistant is really Tang En's greatest happiness.

Unfortunately, now this happiness is gone. He has to come to everything himself. Fortunately, he has been in the team for a long time. These things can be done by getting started after getting familiar with them.

Tired must be more tired than before, but Tang En gradually realized how correct what Tang said was. He has indeed made some progress...

I used to be a little bit still, but when I was withdrawn, I realized that I could actually do a lot of things.

First of all, we need to determine the lineup for the new season, sign ups and transfer such things.

Mexican young player Galwan Martin, who signed with the Forest team from 2007 to 2008, finally turned 18 and could play abroad. He ended his career at Blue Cross, packed his bags and came to strange England with his family. He also had to adapt from the beginning in the apartment provided by the club. Language, diet, weather and football style. For him, everything in Nottingham Forest is fresh and an impact on the past.

Don Eun does not expect him to play for the team when he comes. He also has to adapt to the youth team and the reserve team for a while. It is also convenient for the Forest coaching staff to observe him up close. It is not that even if you come to England, you will definitely be able to do anything. No, on the contrary, if you perform poorly and cannot adapt to Nottingham Forest football for a long time, he may be sold by Don Eun. Don Eun has deep feelings for old players, but for those young players, he will not invest too much in it. This industry is cruel. Who knows if you can become a talent?

Another person who returned to the team is Adriano Mock. He performed well in the season when he was loaned to Blackburn. He played twenty-three times in the league, scored two goals and assisted five times. He played five times in the cup. He scored one goal and assisted six times. He scored three goals in total and assisted eleven. As a full-back, he delivered a satisfactory answer. After Mork's loan period arrived. Blackburn hoped to continue loaning him, but Don refused. On the one hand, he loaned Mock out to give him the opportunity to exercise, and on the other hand, he also hoped to polish the genius's ambitious personality so that he could be down-to-earth, which would help his growth.

From the situation in these seasons, he has obviously met Tang En's requirements. Mok's arrogant and self-righteous temper has been much more restrained, more pragmatic, more down-to-earth and diligent. So Tang En believes that it is time to reward him for entering the first team. Call him back to the first team. It is convenient for Tang En to examine his performance up close and also help his growth. After all, Mok is a player of the Forest team. If nothing unexpected happens, he will play for the Forest team in the future. Staying wandering outside will not help cultivate his sense of belonging and familiar with the team's game style.

Mock's return will not cause the team's midfield crowd. Lennon can play on both sides, and Fernandez can also play the midfield forward. Considering that the Forest will definitely play in multiple fronts next season, the staffing configuration of this midfield is actually very reasonable. Only John Bostock needs to continue to be loaned because with his ability, he cannot occupy a place in the Nottingham Forest midfield.

There is basically no change in the back line. Gareth Bale returns to the team after recovering from injury. The competition for left-backs is more intense than before, but its strength has also been enhanced. In addition, Tang En does not intend to introduce a defender player in the summer. The past few seasons have proved that Nottingham Forest's defense system is perfect. He does not need to introduce any new players to disrupt and reorganize this defense line that has already cooperated with tacitly. Although Pepe and others still received many transfer applications from the team, Tang En refused without exception.

The stability of the defense line is overwhelming, and he will never break up this defense line without special circumstances.

On the forward line, Van Nystruey retired after the end of last season, left Nottingham, returned to his hometown in the Netherlands, and enjoyed a life without professional football. He lived a leisurely and pastoral life.

Nicklas Milan and Victor Moses continue to be loaned. Although Moses is already twenty years old, the competition for the Forest's ground forward is too fierce. If he doesn't lend him out, he doesn't even have to play. Look at the Forest's ground forward now - the club is loved by Donn and can always save the team at critical moments. Gypsy Rooney Freddy Eastwood, who finally scored 27 league goals last season and won the Premier League Golden Boot, with a total of 38 goals in the season. The "Super Ibissevic" who is in excellent condition;

The genius giant "Ibrahimovic II" Aaron Mitchel, who emerged in Barcelona's second leg; although he often plays on the right forward, he is still among the forwards, and is very fast and can act as the deadliest sharp knife in counterattacks. Including Nicklas Milan and Victor Moses, six forwards who may appear in the future. If Donn wants to stick to his 451 in most of the season's games, then it would be a bit fierce and cruel to compete for one appearance position for six forwards.

Don Eun has been trying to reduce this number, including no longer introducing forwards in the transfer market, and allowing some forward players to try to play more positions. Abang Lajo himself can play multiple positions, which is naturally the best. Nicklas Milan can also play on the wing, and he should have a place after returning to the team. Eastwood is no longer a pure shooter after being injured many times. His passing and consciousness can help the team's frontcourt and midfield well. It's more like a No. 9 and a half. Sometimes he can even replace Shahin's position, but he won't be able to organize the offense at that time. Such a job is left to Wood and Thiago behind him. Although his shooting skills and awareness are still there, he is far from the penalty area. The "1" in the 451 lineup is not the best candidate.

Ibissevic is in his year of fighting and is the shooter that Don En will rely on in the future. Mitcher is still relatively young. Although he has high talent, he needs to accumulate experience. He goes step by step. Don En doesn't want to force the seedlings to grow. Sometimes he has to deliberately refrigerate this kid. Fortunately, Mitcher's personality is completely different from Bentner. He listens to Don En's words very much, and Don En doesn't have to worry about being too strict and forcing him away.

Although Evan promised Tang En that he would have more money to invest in the transfer market this summer, Tang En did not intend to spend money like money. The bosses who never wanted to invest more money in the transfer market who seemed to Grandet didn't like it. And those who liked to spend a lot of money and then signed a lot of players he didn't need to put into the lineup, Tang En also didn't like it.

The change mainly occurs in the midfield.

In the 451 formation, two midfielders who are dragging behind are very important. In the current lineup of Nottingham Forest, the main positions are George Wood and Thiago. George Wood don’t need to consider this. Basically, there will be no major problems. The key is Thiago.

The Portuguese midfielder just celebrated his 30th birthday. Although he is still in the golden period of competitive state, it is an indisputable fact that his competitive curve will begin to move down. As he gets older, any problem will begin to appear. Tang En cannot wait until the problem really appears before finding a solution. He must prepare for it.

In any case, at least three players are needed to facilitate rotation. Nowadays, there are several outstanding midfielders in football, such as Mascherano, Veroso, Lassena Diarra... But none of the above three people can come. One is the absolute main force of the Reds Liverpool. A character that AC Milan cannot take away from Anfield. The second is San Siro's new favorite. The third one allows Real Madrid to find "Marklele II" that they have lacked for many years.

Donn fell in love with Argentine midfielder Gago, who was not very happy in Real Madrid.

Due to the existence of Van der Fate, Ribery, and Diarra, Gago's living space in Real Madrid has become smaller and smaller. Originally, he was famous for his style of playing in the riverbed and his overall view. But when he arrived at Real Madrid, in order to win the opportunity to play, he had to change his style of playing and become an engineer-type midfielder like Gattuso. Although he worked very hard and did not do badly... But when Lassena Diala came, the situation changed.

In terms of defensive ability such as steals, tackles, and man-tapping. He is not as good as Diarra. In terms of passing organization and long-range shooting and offense. He is not as good as Van der Fate and Ribery. He seems a bit mediocre, and his defense is stronger than Van der Fate and others. The offense seems to be slightly better than Diarra. But he does not have any outstanding advantage, which makes him only a substitute in Real Madrid, where stars are full of stars.

He worked very hard on the court, but unfortunately he has been working as a engineer for so many years, and seems to have forgotten how to attack. He often makes mistakes when passing forward on the court. As a midfielder, once he makes a mistake in passing here, the opponent can directly counterattack. The defense line of Real Madrid is in chaos.

Although he occasionally has some moments of inspiration, compared with his teammates around him, it is really insignificant...

Gago has had very few opportunities to play in Real Madrid in the past two seasons, but his Argentine teammate Higuain has been doing well.

Although he was not doing well, Don En saw what he needed - in his team, he didn't need Gago to run tirelessly in the midfield like he did at Real Madrid, and be an engineer. This kind of job is George Woodcan. What he needs is Gago to be able to play his strong overall perspective, excellent passes, and creativity. In addition, Gago has good endurance and serious attitude, which is quite popular with Don En. He likes dedicated players, even if they are not geniuses.

It was against this background that Donn found Gago's agent.

One side wants people, the other side wants to leave.  The two sides hit it off.   The next thing is the Forest Club’s offer to Real Madrid.

Real Madrid also believes that Gago's role in the current team is not obvious, and it is better to sell it instead of keeping it. After all, he is already twenty-five years old and cannot be considered a "young young player with great potential".                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

The negotiations between the two sides went very smoothly. Nottingham Forest's offer of 10 million pounds was accepted by Real Madrid. Although he spent 16.5 million pounds when he bought him, Real Madrid always did such a thing - buying at a high price and then giving it at a low price or giving it for free. Anyway, Real Madrid, who is rich, doesn't care about this little money. What's more, Nottingham Forest sold a lot of players to Real Madrid, and the relationship between the top leaders of both sides seems to be pretty good.

Argentine midfielder who played for four and a half seasons at Real Madrid, Fernando Gago, who was once known as "Redondo II", was wearing the red No. 16 jersey from Nottingham Forest.

He hopes that he can usher in a new chapter in his career in England. And Tony Donn hopes that Gago can restore his original style of "Redondo II" under his command and inject endless impetus into the team in offense.

However, Gago doesn't seem to adapt to the style of the new team. Whether in training or warm-up matches, he always follows his own style at Real Madrid, participating too much in midfield defense, and has made very little contribution to offense.

For this reason, Tang En specially found him and talked to him about this issue.

In fact, the conversation was very simple, less than a minute, and Tang En only said one sentence, which made Gago's eyes suddenly enlightened.

At that time, Tang En said: "Just pass forward and don't be afraid of mistakes. Don't be afraid of mistakes if you make mistakes in passing and dribbling. Don't be afraid of George by your side? Believe him and be confident and bold in attack!"
