Chapter Nineteen He's Back

Chapter 19 He is back

Tang En was flipping through his phone book at home. There were not many people on it because he didn't have many friends. There were a lot of enemies who hoped he would die sooner.

He hasn't replied to Evan Doggetti, but this is not a problem. As long as he nods, Evan Doggetti is too late to be happy, so how could he refuse?

Before this, he needed to do something, such as finding a satisfactory assistant for himself. Tang En's 15-year coaching career is inseparable from an excellent assistant, which has become his final form. An excellent assistant can help him save a lot of time and energy. He is not the kind of head coach who always takes care of everything, and even trains and other things have to go into battle.

Des Walker just led the team to win the world championship. Now his net worth has doubled. After he left the national team, Walker also left, but he did not retire, but was invited by Leeds United, who was determined to regain his strength, to be the head coach.

Don is still the head coach of Nords. His team has played in the English Championship for two seasons, from barely relegation to now stabilizing in the top ten, making significant progress. And letting him be an assistant coach for himself is a bit too incompetent.

Donn fixed his eyes on David Chris Lack's name.

Chris Lack, who left the Forest team, did not do well. He worked as a head coach for Bolton for half a season, but was dismissed because of his poor record. Later, he spent many English Championship teams and once coached abroad. However, he has never achieved the same results as in the Forest team. Not all coaches can regain their strength after changing places, and the coaches also have the attribute of "adaptation". Obviously, Chris Lack is not adaptable, at least not as good as Des Walker and Don.

Now Chris Lack is at home. Thinking of the days he worked with him, Tang En felt that it was such a wonderful memory. Such an excellent talent cannot be wasted at home. So he called Chris Lack, hoping that he had not changed his mobile phone number in the past four years.

Chris Lack feels that he is very embarrassed now and has never been able to lead the team to get good results when he is a head coach. His results when he is a temporary head coach in the Forest team may be his most brilliant moment. Although the head coach is unhappy, he is a little reluctant to let him be an assistant coach now. He is used to eating French meals. Who is willing to eat McDonald's and KFC all day long? He always feels that he should be able to see some results in the head coach position, but lacks good opportunities. Going to be an assistant coach? Isn't that depreciating himself?

Now he is at home and is with his wife and children. Fortunately, he has some savings as a coach before. With Tang Endi, he got a lot of bonuses in every season. However, over the years, he has become less and less, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to support a family of four. He is considering going out to work again, but there are several invitation letters from clubs, including three of which want to invite him to be the head coach, but they are all low-level league teams, and the conditions offered are very average. In addition, a Premier League club invited him to be an assistant coach. Everyone in the circle knows that his performance as an assistant coach is better than his performance as a head coach...

Chris Lack is not Donn. Although he is fifty-four years old now, he has never thought about retiring.

Just when he was unsure of what club he should accept, he received a call from Don En.

"It's great that you didn't change your number. David!" Tang En's voice was very happy on the phone.

"Tony?" Chris Lack was a little surprised - what did he do when he called himself?

"Are you still in Nottingham? Can we come out for a coffee or something?" Done sent an invitation.

"Uh, no, I'm in London."

"You moved?" Tang En was a little surprised.

"Of course, since I left the Forest Team.   I have moved."

"It's really bad..." Tang En muttered.

"You suddenly called me, is there anything wrong, Tony?"

"Well, that's it." Tang En thought about it, "Are you interested in re-becoming an assistant coach, David?"

"Assistant coach?" Chris Lack thought Don was entrusted to be a lobbyist, such as Nottingham Forest.   I heard that Freddy was not doing well there, and he urgently needed a helper. But he asked himself to be an assistant coach for Freddy... "No, Tony.  I don't want to be an assistant coach anymore."

"What a pity..." Donn on the other end of the phone was obviously disappointed with Chris Lack's answer, and he murmured in a low voice, "It seems I have to go find someone else to partner with me..."

This sentence was very quiet, and Don was talking to himself completely, but he forgot to say goodbye to Chris Lack first, then hang up the phone and complain.

This sentence was heard by Chris Lack, and his first reaction was surprise.

Then he heard Don Eun say disappointedly: "I'm sorry. I'm disturbing you. David. Although you rejected me, I still hope to have a chance to go to London. I can invite you to have a cup of coffee together."

After saying that, he was about to hang up the phone.                                                        �

"Hmm? Is there anything else, David?"

Donne no longer focuses on Chris Lack. He knows Chris Lack's mind. It is really hard to accept that those who are used to being head coaches want to be assistant coaches. A person like Queroz went to Real Madrid to be a head coach who failed for a season. If it weren't for a head coach of Ferguson, he wouldn't be willing to go back to Manchester United to be an assistant coach. So Donne actually doesn't blame Chris Lack. After all, water flows to the low places and people walk to the high places...

Now he is continuing to look through the phone book, hoping to find a suitable assistant coach.

"Who are you looking for an assistant coach for?" Chris Lack asked. In fact, an answer has been generated in his heart, but he is not sure.

"I, who else can I have?" Tang En replied casually.

"Aren't you retired? Wait..." Chris Lack's head suddenly became clear. "I heard of such a rumor that you will re-train Nottingham Forest?"

"It's not a rumor now, David." Tang En laughed.

Chris Lack jumped out of the chair: "Are you really going to re-supervise Nottingham Forest?"

"Today is not April Fool's Day, David."

"Are you looking for an assistant coach?"

"Of course. You've asked it once."

"I'll go!" Chris Lack responded without hesitation, but surprised Don.

"Didn't you just now not want to be an assistant coach? David?"

"It depends on who to do it, ha!" Chris Lack's mood suddenly improved, and all his previous concerns about the future disappeared. "I am absolutely right to be an assistant coach for you! It's not that I'm bragging, others are looking for me to be an assistant coach, but they don't have the qualifications yet!"

Donne touched his nose, and he felt a little embarrassed by Chris Lack's praise. This is really a big praise...

"When will we start working? Fortunately, my house in Nottingham has not been sold yet, so I can take it back from the agency..." As soon as I was talking about working with Donn to return to Nottingham Forest, Chris Lark came.

But Tang En wanted to pour cold water on him: "Hey, David, don't be excited. I don't plan to work in the forest captain this time."

"ah?"

"You also know that the Forests is in a bad situation at the moment. Freddy lacks experience and prestige and cannot lead the Forests out of the predicament. Evan Dogerty found me and hopes that I can go back and lead the team out of the predicament. Of course, I don't want the Forests to become the laughing stock of others, but you clearly have my body. It's not okay to work in this position for a long time. My idea is to work only in the Forests until the end of this season..."

"Half a season?" Chris Lack was a little surprised.

"Well, I just came out to put out the fire, but I didn't create another dynasty."

"That's it..." Chris Lark was a little sorry, but Tony was right. His body was indeed like a time bomb. If he was willing to come out to put out the fire, he had a deep affection for the Forest Team.

"But it's nothing. Anyway, I'm an assistant coach for you. I'll do it for as long as you do." Chris Lark was determined to follow Tang En. The most glorious period of his coaching career was the ten years when he was an assistant coach for Tang En. He felt satisfied that he was able to return to Tang En and coach the Forest Team together. He would not consider the future for the time being.

When Donn heard Chris Lack say this, he really wanted to reply to him loudly: "Good brother!" But Chris Lack probably couldn't understand the essence of this sentence for a while, so he just said, "Thank you, David. With you, I have nothing to worry about."

"Hehe, of course. We are golden partners!" Chris Lark was in a good mood and started a joke.

After finishing the call with Donne, Chris Lack sat in a chair. After joy, memories of working with Donne in the past came to his mind unsuppressedly, making him full of expectations for the next half season in the future.

Tony is back, I really want to see how those opponents react!

Before Donn called Evan to reply, another eye-catching personnel change occurred at the top of Nottingham Forest Club.

Marketing Manager. Allen Adams, who is solely responsible for negotiating the acquisition with the UAE consortium, submitted his resignation to Evan Doggetti. Club Chairman Evan Doggetti agreed to his resignation application.

This is what the foreign media said. Those who know the inside story know that it is Evan Doggetti who actually resigned Alan Adams. This action surprised many people. Because just two days ago, the UAE consortium that had been silent for more than two weeks finally decided to restart the acquisition negotiations. This was originally good news for Evan Doggetti, who was determined to sell the Forest team, but at this critical moment, he opened Allen Adams who was fully responsible for this matter...

It's really strange, I don't understand what Evan Dogerty is thinking.

Only Don may know some reason. Evan knew that his relationship with Allen Adams has always been a disagreement. He fired Allen at this time, which should be a statement to Don't say that no one in the club will come back to obstruct his work...

It feels a bit like a vote. But Tang En doesn't care whether Allen is still in the Forest Team.

"I only coached for the Forest until the end of the season, Evan." He said to Evan Dogerty on the phone.

There was silent for a while, obviously I didn't expect that Tang En would only coach this season.

"Just like you never thought about working as the chairman of the Forest Club, I never thought about working as the head coach of the Forest Team for the rest of my life. I promised to come back this time not for you, Evan. I don't want the team I led to become a joke for others. Look at the comments about the Forest Team in the tabloids. We are already a joke." Tang En explained, "I will lead the team to spend the rest of the season smoothly, and then help you find a suitable successor. I will retire next and accompany my wife and children. What do you think? Anyway, I think this plan is good."

He said so, can Evan still say "I don't think it's good at all"? You know, now Evan is asking Done, not Done, so Done seizes Evan's mentality and throws out his own conditions. Evan can accept it, then they will cooperate for the second time, and they can't just break up. And Done is not worried that Evan will not accept it...

Sure enough, Evan agreed to Tang En's conditions. He had another plan in his mind: Anyway, there is still more than half a year before the end of the season, and no one knows what will happen in the middle. Maybe after Tang En returned to the coaching seat of the Forest team, he found his original passion again and was unwilling to leave again? No matter how long he had, Evan slowly figured out a way, and could he always change his mind, right?

Don Thief ignored Evan's little abacus. Like George Wood, he was also a very stubborn person. As long as he made a decision, unless he changed his mind himself, it would be useless no matter how others persuaded him.

Since I have decided to re-sponsor the Forest team, when will I come back?

Evan hopes that the sooner the better, but Tang En is not in a hurry, because before that, he has to do a few more things.                                                                                                               

The specific days of coaching can be temporarily postponed, and Eastwood can continue to hold on for a short time. Anyway, since Donne has confirmed that he has returned, Evan Dogette will not pay attention to his recent results.

But this news must be announced as soon as possible to stabilize people's hearts. At the same time, it will also restore confidence among sponsors. Tang En has no objection to this.

So on the next day, November 12, every netizen who often visits Piaotian Silk Station will find a very obvious change, and the homepage of the website was replaced with a full page of the advertisement.

Tang En's huge photo is the backing of the advertisement, and it is written in a very inflammatory tone:

Yes, the king is back!

"... There is bad news for the head coaches of other nineteen clubs in the Premier League..." Later on, such a noticeable news was also broadcast on TV news. The male broadcaster said with a smile, but in the eyes of some people, the smile seemed to have a slight banter. "Tony Don is back!"

When an earthquake occurred in the English football world due to the return of Donne, the person who caused all this had left England and embarked on a journey to Spain alone.
Chapter completed!
