Chapter 319 Volume [-] Red Forest and Everton

April [-]rd, showers.

Nottingham, outside City Stadium.

Although the weather is not beautiful, this kind of weather, which is common to the British, can't stop the fans of the Forest team from coming to watch the game.Colorful umbrellas formed a long snake in front of the stadium's entrances.When these umbrellas moved to the stands with the flow, they all disappeared without a trace in an instant.The only ones left are people who open their arms and sing and shout against the wind and rain, individually and in groups.

This is a game in the No.30 round of the English Premier League. Nottingham Forest is playing against Everton at home.Perhaps for other fans, this is a nothing special game, you can watch it or not.But for the fans of the two participating teams, this is a crucial game, which is no less than the derby in the cities where the two teams are located.

Everyone has worked hard for this game, and no one wants to be a loser after 10 minutes.

There was silence in the home locker room.The players have just warmed up from the field, they are all wet, and they are hurrying to change into clean jerseys.Tang En stood at the door of the locker room, watching his players doing everything in an orderly manner.David Chrislak was a little anxious, looking at his watch from time to time.

Tang En cleared his throat, and then raised his hand: "You are busy, I would like to say a few words." The players stopped what they were doing and looked back at him. Tang En waved his hands vigorously, signaling them to continue doing their own work.Seeing the players turn around and continue to change clothes, Tang En scratched his head and said, "Well, half a month ago, we lost the UEFA Cup... I excitedly declared that we were going to win the UEFA Cup, but the result was ridiculous, I lost .”

Tang En said "I lost" so easily, which surprised the players present.Their coach can be regarded as the kind of person who will not admit defeat even if he loses, and will take advantage of his mouth even if he loses.Why is it so abnormal today?

Looking at the expressions of these players, Tang En naturally knew what they were thinking.He grinned: "Have all the clean clothes been changed?"

The players nodded.

"Very well, calm down and continue to listen to me. We are newly promoted, right?"

"That's right. Newly promoted." Someone among the players replied.

"The goal of a newly promoted player is usually to stay in relegation, isn't it?"

"Yes." More people spoke out this time.

"But..." Tang En changed the subject, "It's been [-] rounds in the league. Let's look at our current results. We are sixth in the league! Which newly promoted team has such good results as ours? If we surpass two more, we will be able to participate The UEFA Champions League next season! Ditching the UEFA Cup for the Champions League, I think it is worthwhile. There are eight rounds left in the league. For this goal, we have to sprint from now on, with all our strength... sprint! Everton is our direct competition Opponents, we are sprinting, and they are too!"

Tang En walked from the door to the center of the locker room, stood in the crowd, and looked around. "Recently, our luck has not been very good. We have lost successively, lost the UEFA Cup, and even lost two games in a row in the league. The media outside have turned upside down, describing our Nottingham Forest as if the end of the world is coming. They advanced Sentenced us to death, when there are still eight rounds in the league...announced in advance that our season is over, we are finished!" He pointed at the door and cursed loudly, "Those whores! What do you think? Do you guys think our season is over? Are we done?"

At this time, if someone still said "Yes, I think we have no chance", it would be courting death. All the players of the Forest team shouted: "No!"

Twain was very satisfied with the performance of the players.

"Let me tell you, I can assure you that Liverpool will fall behind, Liverpool will definitely fall behind! Don't look at them now in front of us, they will definitely be overtaken by us! So our main competitor is actually only one Everton, And the day of the decisive battle with them is today! As long as we can narrow the point gap with them to one point! If we can't bear this pressure, the first to collapse will be our opponent!" He clenched his fist and threw it down, Although nothing hit, everyone could hear the "bang".

"Sixth in the league, top 36 in the UEFA Cup... I think this result is good enough for a newly promoted horse. It is also good enough for a head coach who is only [-] years old." The game has not yet started, The work of the narrator has already begun.Martin Taylor and Andy Gray analyzed some relevant information of this game for everyone.

Gray laughed, "Martin, I don't think Coach Twain will agree with your words."

"Ok?"

"He will definitely feel that it is not enough, because he has not achieved his goal. If he does not achieve his goal, it is not good. We can see something from this game. I can bet that the Forest team will definitely I will fight Everton to the death, this game cannot be a draw. Because at this moment, a draw is tantamount to failure for someone like Tony Twain."

"Andy, since when did you know him so well?"

The two laughed in front of the microphone.

After the players from both sides played, Moyes saw Mikel Arteta in Nottingham Forest's starting 11, and he felt all kinds of feelings in his heart.

This is the player who should have been training under him and wearing the Everton blue jersey in the Premier League, but now he is in Nottingham Forest, playing against him.

He turned his head to look at the coach of the home team.

The way Tony Twain was sitting upright made it almost impossible for him to connect with the frustrated man two years ago.It's only been less than two years, the changes are really big...

No, we are now rivals.

Now is not the time to admire each other.

Moyes looked back, sat on the coach's bench and waited for the game to start.

When the game started, the rain didn't stop, it wasn't heavy, but it was very annoying. There was no water on the field, but it was even more slippery.

In the past, what Tang En hated the most was playing in the rain, because it would make the team unable to perform at two-thirds of their usual level.But after staying in the UK for more than two years, he had to succumb to the forces of nature. It is impossible for him to change the climate of the British island country, right?Then he won't be a football coach, just put on his underwear and change his career to become Superman.

Now Forest's Welford training base, since the game with the Arsenal youth team, has a dedicated field. Whenever the weather is bad, a lot of water will be poured on this field, simulating the The conditions of fighting in rainy days allow the team to conduct adaptive training.After repeated targeted practice of this kind, the team's strength loss in fighting in rainy days has been very small.

Now it seems that he let Bendtner and Crouch start really in line with the weather conditions, two big and tall, most of the team's offense can avoid the slippery ground, and take the air.

He is not like Wenger, he must let the team play well.Tony Twain is a pragmatist. If ugliness can win, he doesn't mind making the game look worthless.Of course, Arteta, who has delicate skills and imaginative passing, can also enrich the Forest team's offensive methods in the team.Tang En is not afraid of too many offensive routines, he is eager for more, so that the opponent can't figure out how to defend.

After Everton's midfielder left Gravesen, his strength was weakened a lot.Although Gravesen failed in Real Madrid in Tang En's memory, he was a well-deserved core when he was in Everton.Not only can he defend, but his passing ability makes him also capable of organizing offense.It’s just that I went to Real Madrid. There are too many strong players in Real Madrid, and there is no room for him to play. A team like Real Madrid is not suitable for Gravesen. After all, not all players who are the core of small and medium teams can play in The rich clubs play the main force.Later, after Capello entered Real Madrid, the Danish "Hulk" became more and more stressed, and was cleaned by Capello because of a fight with Robinho.

Today, in this Everton team, there is no Gravesen, and there is no Arteta that Twain is familiar with, so Moyes had to train another player to be the core of the midfield-Australian Tim Cahill.

Twain was no stranger to this person, whether it was in his memory or his personal experience as a head coach, Cahill had left a deep impression on him.The Millwall players now wore Everton's blue jerseys and once again stood opposite Twain.

But this time, Twain was no longer the Twain he was more than a year ago, and Nottingham Forest was not the deputy squad leader who was still struggling in the second tier league with no future in sight.

As the core of the midfield, Cahill is too young!
Moyes is completely rushing ducks to the shelves. With such a core midfielder, George Wood may be more than enough to deal with two by himself.

Moyes also knows that Everton's midfielder can't compete with Forest's midfielder at all, so don't look at Cahill on the surface as a midfielder, in fact, he is a striker.

Everton's starting striker is Duncan_Ferguson and "Saint" James Beattie, who arrived from Southampton this season. Their biggest role may be to help Cahill attract Forest. Defensive fire.

The real finishing touch came from the Aussie kid.

As for the midfielder, Li Tie, whom Tang En was most familiar with, didn't even make the squad. He was injured and still recovering.
