British 1986

Allen looked at Bobby Robson who looked excited and smiled.

His information channels are certainly wider than those of a football head coach.

As far as Bobby Robson's performance in leading the team this year, there is still hope for him to get a Lordship as long as someone puts the message forward. Anyway, the domestic economic situation has continued to be sluggish in the past two years. In this case, cultural and sports activities are very eye-catching. of.

And achieving the best results in more than 20 years this time was just a gimmick. Allen could just write a sentence on the report and it would help him win the knighthood!

And with this kind of advance knowledge, we might as well use it directly to pay a favor to Bobby Robson.

Patting Bobby Robson on the shoulder, Allen said softly: "No matter the result of tonight's game, you just need to play well and show our British style, and you and I will apply for a knighthood for you then."

"???"

Bobby Robson's eyes widened, and his body was instantly covered with goosebumps. At this moment.

He even suspected that he was hallucinating.

Does your Excellency want to apply for a knighthood for yourself? !

Not only was Bobby Robson stunned, but also the players who had been listening to the two of them talking were so shocked by Allen's words that their breaths froze.

This is a title. Such a noble nobleman shouldn't just use it as a joke, right?

Is the head coach going to be a Jazz coach?

this.

So enviable!

At this moment, in the eyes of these players, this handsome blond nobleman was like a shining golden man, so dazzling and desirable to look at.

Allen looked at these little bumpkins as if they were shocked. He smiled and said to the players: "Don't be envious. Bobby has done well in leading the team this time. As for you, just try your best in today's game. I won't." Results are required. No matter whether you win or lose the result of today’s game, after the game is over, you can go to Milan for three days. I will cover all your expenses in Milan during these three days!”

"oh?"

A gentle voice of questioning just arose, and was interrupted by a louder cheer in the blink of an eye.

They couldn't get the title, but they didn't expect that Mr. Allen would be so generous and instead give them financial rewards.

Three days in Milan, all expenses are included!

This includes all expenses for beauties, hotels, and shopping!

He is indeed the well-deserved Earl of Carmarthen, look at his magnanimity!

Allen simply said these few words, then patted Bobby Robson, who was still immersed in the confused mode, and said, "Okay, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll go up first."

"ah?"

"ah!"

Only then did Bobby Robson come back to his senses. He looked at the excited players in the locker room and then at Allen who had a gentle smile on his face. He felt mixed emotions. He felt like he was recognized. , but what’s more sad is that I’m going to get a knighthood just like that?

Bobby Robson is even a little philosophical at this moment.

"Your Mightiness."

"Okay, no need to send it off. You can rest for a while and prepare for the game."

Allen patted Bobby Robson hard on the shoulder again and opened the door to the dressing room.

Although there are no boxes in the San Nicola Stadium today, the highest viewing area in the middle is still separated by a small area. The Italian official also sent several heavyweight officials to watch the game on site.

Alan took Monica to have a few polite words with him, mainly to introduce Monica to them.

This chick is doing really well these days.

The two of them were competing in the hotel that day to compete on soccer skills. Monica was obviously sore all over and was knocked to death, but she didn't say anything, but she still shed tears when she should.

Allen also took this opportunity to show her face and say hello to her, just like when he brought Nicole Kidman to the welcome banquet hosted by the Governor in Australia. Although the effect may not be very great, At the very least, she can put Monica's name on the list, and ordinary people here won't bully her when they hear her name.

Monica held Allen's arm throughout the whole process. When Allen introduced anyone to her, she would smile and nod, not saying much, and focusing on Allen.

After dealing with the basic social interaction, Allen came to the second-floor stands and looked at the players from both sides who had already come out to exchange team flags. He remembered that he was in the locker room just now, and so many people were cheering when they heard his reward conditions, but only The little fat guy Gascoigne sitting in the corner didn't move.

Photos of this little fat guy crying on the sidelines after the team lost to Germany a few days ago spread all over England in an instant, which made him famous, but it was of no use. He couldn't play in the last game. .

I can only watch my teammates go up from the sidelines.

Allen looked at the braided player in the Italian team - Baggio.

This is a player who impressed him very much. He is known as the Prince of Melancholy and is extremely famous.

Watching these young players shaking hands with each other and changing team flags, Allen took a deep breath.

The reason why he stated the reward conditions first was to appease the players.

England cannot win today's third-place match.

It's not a question of whether they are strong enough, but the Italian team is the host of this World Cup.

It wouldn’t matter if the host country is not very good but has no reputation or achievements, but the Italian team is at its peak right now. They didn’t win the championship, but they finished third.

Their method of operation is much smarter than the Koreans' upright and shady tactics.

really

Seeing that the two sides did not score in the first half, and each scored one in the second half. Seeing that the game time was running out, the two sides were about to enter a brutal penalty shootout again.

The Italian team coincidentally received a penalty kick in the 86th minute.

Defender Salvatore Schillaci made an immediate impact.

The score of 2:1 remained until the end.

The home team goes first and the away team goes last.

The Italian team finished third in this World Cup, while the England team achieved its best result in more than two decades.

Monica had been watching Allen silently. Since there was no private room, Allen was watching the game very seriously this time, but his attitude was a little different from the last time they were in the private room.

Even if the Italian team won a penalty kick and the ball was scored, Allen did not express any dissatisfaction or annoyance.

He just sat there, smiling, until the game was over, then stood up and motioned for him to come along.

Monica looked at Allen with some confusion and said, "Why don't you seem to care about today's game at all?"

Don't care?

Allen smiled and glanced at Monica, then took her to the side to say goodbye to the Italian officials.

What's there to care about? He already knew the result of the game. This is a very traditional way of being human.

There is no difference between third and fourth place for the England team. They are not champions anyway.

And whether there is honor or not, for the host Italian team, it is a matter of face.

One doesn't care, the other wants to save face. Do you still need to guess the result of this game?

The two sides did not play match-fixing or tacit understanding, but played in a humane manner.

Didn't you watch the penalty kick? Didn't both sides have any objections?

If a person falls, he falls well and the referee has no objections to the penalty, so that’s fine.

Holding Monica's waist, Allen laughed and didn't want to talk to her about these things.

Originally, he wanted to stay in Italy for a while. In the recent period since the end of the World Cup, Allen has become more and more fond of Monica. However, with an urgent call from Huth, Allen's "health regimen" was disrupted. "plan.

Nothing specific was said on the phone, but Allen understood what Hu Te said.

The smell of gunpowder in the Middle East was getting stronger and stronger. Huth was a little worried about Allen who was still in Italy, and urged him to come back as soon as possible.

A little reluctant, Allen called the bodyguard to bring over the small box he had prepared.

Bustogarover, inside Monica's apartment.

"What's this?"

Monica stared blankly at the small box handed over by Alan.

"It's for you. I'm leaving. I will leave a few bodyguards behind. They will take you there then."

"What?"

Monica was confused by Alan's sudden farewell and confused by the contents of the box.

The small box is very delicate, but there is only one key inside. There is only one key.

Allen hooked his fingers and motioned for Monica to come and sit next to him. He picked up the key in the box in her hand, waved it in front of Monica's eyes and said, "You have done well during this period. This is what I reward you for." .”

Although it's good to stay in Monica's small apartment, it's okay to live here occasionally. If he lives here for a long time, Alan will be suffocated. He is not suitable for such a life.

Even an apartment like Monica's is better than what many ordinary people live in, but even so, Allen can't stand it. He is used to enjoying it, and coming here is equivalent to experiencing life for him.

"Isn't your hometown in Umbria? This is a house I bought for you in Perugia. After I leave, you can go and have a look and decorate it in whatever way you want. , it’s better to live closer to home, the transportation there is also very convenient.”

Allen pressed the key into Monica's palm and explained to her what the key was with a smile.

"You gave me the house?"

Monica blinked, a little unwillingly.

It's not that she has no money, it's that she doesn't have that much money. To be honest, the salary Allen gave her in the past was quite a lot, and it was definitely enough to buy a house.

But as an actress, she often has to go out to film and buy a house in one place. This is too expensive. She has to save money to buy clothes and jewelry and go to various places for auditions.

Therefore, Monica only bought her own car here, and rented the house.

Now a man actually bought himself a house in the capital of his hometown.

At this moment, Monica didn't know how to describe her mood.

happy?

Happy?

Still moved?

A little bit of it, but she couldn't tell exactly what it was.

Allen looked at Monica who was a little sentimental, pinched her chin again, and said close to her face: "Don't think blindly, I just think you have performed well recently. This is my reward for you, please hurry up and tidy up the house." , next time I come over, don’t let me live in a small house like this again.”

His eyes looked around Monica aggressively.

Monica's face turned red when Alan looked at her.

After struggling with Monica for another week, towards the end of July, Alan finally returned to Wales.

This time Hu Te came to pick him up personally. Seeing that Allen finally came back, Hu Te finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master, you are finally back. Karl's report has been sent back, and I have collected a lot of news and information."

"Is the situation over there so bad now?"

Allen knew what Huth was talking about. Some time ago, an American destroyer sailed to someone's door openly.

But Iraq is very tough and does not want to offend the Americans at all.

People who have not experienced this era can never imagine the influence and relationship between countries.

America has not always been so strong.

Although it is now the middle of 1990, the United States?

Ah.

Many people now regard them as a joke.

Not to mention that most British people hate them, it can be said that people in many places now hate them.

Not only do I hate their nouveau riche look, but I also hate their feeling that they like to cause trouble but are too lazy to cause trouble.

Let’s not talk about the faraway places, whether it’s North Korea or Vietnam.

Every time America passed by with high spirits, and then went back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

It happens every time.

How many years have passed since the Vietnam War?

The United States has reached out to the Middle East again.

The current little bully in the Middle East, the Iraqis are not used to Americans, why are you showing off in front of me?

Come and try one!

While most people like to use historical achievements as a reference, and many people's combat thinking still exists in the era of the Continental Army, tanks, and artillery, many things that have been changed by technology are quietly preparing to arrive.

The current attitude of Iraq is extremely tough. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are on the border of Kuwait, ready to give Kuwait a hard blow.

And where is Iraq?

It's not too far away from Italy, only a thousand kilometers. If it were replaced by China, it would be just one province away.

Even when Italy was still cheering for the World Cup, war clouds were already gathering thousands of miles away next to them.

Allen looked at the unchanging scenery outside the car window, slowly relaxed his body, and leaned on the seat. There was a war over there, but he was not going to participate this time.

As for operating oil in the futures market, Allen completely gave up.

The goal is too big.

The only thing he was involved in this incident was that he took advantage of the economic crisis two years ago to buy a few shares of steel companies in the United States.

But only a little bit.

But after they finish, they can take the opportunity to explore the market for their canned goods, instant noodles, etc. there.

at the moment

Let's wait and see first to see if the valuation and conditions on Salia's side have been agreed upon, and then quickly sign to take over Salia and Bentley.

As for the rest, it’s none of his business!

"Coach Bobby Robson's tactics are well laid out and the players' execution capabilities are in place. This World Cup trip has achieved results that exceeded expectations."

"I recommend that Coach Bobby Robson be knighted as a reward."

Allen took the work report he had just written and after reading everything to see that there were no omissions, he stamped his personal seal at the bottom.

PS: My friend came over from out of town last night, and I was a little busy. I will try to make perfect attendance for the rest of the day, and give you a thumbs up.
