Chapter 136: Heavy Duty (1)
Chapter 136: Important responsibilities (Part 1)
Those readers in England who like to peek at others soon discovered that the newspaper reports were nonsense, because the same newspaper had a completely different statement today and yesterday.
The reporters also felt that it was too exaggerated to continue this, so they could only wait for the press conference the day before the game. They were so looking forward to the press conference that when the Forest team was still doing training in Old Trafford for adaptation, the group of reporters were so excited that they were waiting in the press conference hall.
When the team finished their adaptive training and walked back to the locker room to shower, Don walked straight from the court to the press hall.
In the momentum of a corridor, Tang En almost ran into a heart with the person walking out of the corner. Seeing the white on the head of the figure opposite, Tang En reflexively went to support the other party. He thought he was an old man with unstraight legs. Unexpectedly, when he helped the person up, he was surprised to find that the person he almost ran into was Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson!
This meeting is so embarrassing...
The coaches of two teams that are about to fight will meet will meet in this situation.
Ferguson lowered his head and patted his body because the dust left behind the wall was rubbed. He looked up and was surprised to see Tang En.
The two looked at each other for a while, then Ferguson smiled and said, "You must regret why you wanted to stop just now, Mr. Tang En."
"I regret it now when you remind me, Sir Ferguson." Tang En replied.
"People say that Tony Don is a coach with great verbal skills, and today I finally believe it." Ferguson's expression remained unchanged. What's amazing is that the originally kind smile now gives people a feeling of ridicule.
What Ferguson is best at fighting psychological battles with the opponent's head coach before the game, which is his specialty. Kevin Keegan was defeated by this mental blow in Newcastle and gave up the league champion. Think about this poor man shouted neuroticly on the TV show: "If we beat them (Manchester United), we will fall in love with them!" He played psychological battles with Ferguson. The former European footballer was obviously not an opponent.
The story of his long-term "indignity" between Frenchman Wenger has become a symbol of the Premier League, and now he wants to use this trick against Donn.
But he seemed to have found the wrong opponent.
Tang En replied with a smile: "I am the opposite of you, Sir Ferguson. I never doubt your lip service."
The two of them stood in the corridor, feeling like they were "to meet opponents with chess".
When Ferguson heard Don En's answer, he nodded: "Do you mind going out with me?" He pointed in one direction, and in that direction, a small noise came.
This is not a signal that Ferguson wants to shake hands with Tang En, and Tang En would not be able to shake his head and refuse. He nodded.
When the head coaches of the two teams appeared at the press conference at the same time, they immediately attracted the attention of all the media. The flash filled the small room. For a few seconds, the news hall was pale - shook by the flash...
Ferguson was used to such a scene, so he held his head high and walked towards his seat. Tang En was still a little uncomfortable. He narrowed his eyes, frowned and lowered his head and walked over.
After both head coaches took their seats, the press release announced that it was ready to start.
As soon as the official speech was finished, all the reporters raised their hands, and half of the arms raised were aimed at what happened to the Forest Team these days.
When Tang En heard the first reporter ask this, he knew it.
"Hello, Mr. Tang En. I am the Sun. I would like to ask if the news about the recent media reports are true?"
Tang En did not answer the reporter. Instead, he said to the reporters who were looking forward to it: "Who else would like to ask about the internal dynamics of the Forest Team for a few days? Let me ask them together, I can give it a unified answer."
When the reporters heard Tang En say this, they all thought there was a chance, so they stood up and threw out all the questions that had been accumulated in their hearts.
Tang En sat in front of the microphone. He listened to every question very carefully, and sometimes nodded slightly, as if he was considering how to organize the answer.
After everyone had finished asking, he looked up and asked, "Is there no one? I'm going to say it. Everyone here asked a lot of questions. This is very good. As a reporter, I always like to ask questions. Now I also have a question, I hope you can explain it to me - I summarized the questions just now. Then I found a place that puzzled me: Why are some of the questions that puzzle you are internal news you wrote yourself? Well, who can tell me what the reason is? The Sun asked me if the news is true, and I also want to ask The Sun, if it is not true, what are you doing in your own newspaper?! Do you cheat the manuscript fee and waste the page and paper by the way?"
Tang En really wanted to curse the reporters just now, but fortunately he held back, otherwise he would definitely not be able to escape the punishment from the FA. Although he didn't swear, his tone was much heavier. I believe that if the reporters didn't have an IQ problem, they could all hear the anger hidden in the words of the head coach of the Forest Team just now.
"Today is a press conference about tomorrow's game, not a press conference after the last League Cup. Please understand this. When you are so morbidly paying attention to the situation of the Forests' locker room, have you considered it for the owners here?" Tang En looked at Ferguson sitting next to him.
In the eyes of reporters, Tang En's actions were respectful to his senior Ferguson. This statement was reasonable when fighting away games.
Next, Don said: "So let's focus on tomorrow's game. Manchester United is a great team with many great players. Sir Alex Ferguson is also a great head coach, look at the achievements he has achieved..."
Listen to his words, how in line with everyone's psychological expectations... Almost everyone's head coach will say this to reporters after coming to Old Trafford, except for Wenger and Mourinho.
But then Tang En suddenly changed his subject: "But, Nottingham Forest is not here to worship the great Manchester United, we are here to play. There is only one purpose of the game, that is, to win."
The words were already very clear, and Tang En closed his mouth. “My words are finished.”
Ferguson glanced at Tang En, then followed his words: "Yes, football matches are for winning, and I agree with Mr. Tang En's point of view on this point."
Donn looked at Ferguson and smiled, and the old Scottish man smiled at him.
The two of them secretly competed endlessly.
If you are a football fan, then you may feel a little dizzy when you see these names appear on the court as your opponent at the same time. Because you know their strength and what they represent.
Ruud van Nistelrooy, the main shooter of the Dutch national team, nicknamed "King of Small Bond Zones". His shooting in the penalty area feels first-class.
Wayne Rooney, the Golden Boy of England, was the biggest discovery of the English national team at the Portuguese European Championships. After a sky-high transfer to Manchester United, he quickly established his position in the team.
Cristiano Ronaldo, another golden boy, but he is the golden boy of the Portuguese national team. He is known as the heir to Luis Figo, his fancy dribbling and intimidating speed are his specialties.
Paul Scholes (paul_scholes), a Manchester United old gun, is diligent and outstanding in strength, and his powerful long-range shooting is his signature skill.
Ryan Giggs, the Welshman who is fast-paced, the captain of the Welsh national team, and the top three left winger in the world.
Gary Neville, a key figure in Manchester United's once glorious 92 generation, England and Manchester United's number one choice in right back, have a tough style, fierce steals, and are also good at diagonal long passes. They once cooperated with Beckham on the right and complemented each other.
Rio Ferdinand (rio ferdinand) was the most valuable defender in the world when he transferred from Leeds United in 2002, and he is still the most expensive defender in England until now. Before the urine test storm, he was the main central defender of the England national team. Before Terry rose, the central defender formed by him and Campbell was once considered the best central defender combination in world football.
...
Of course, don't forget Roy Keane. This Irishman is the captain of Manchester United, the spiritual leader of the Red Devils after Cantona, and an indispensable and important person. As long as he is present, Manchester United will always be full of fighting spirit and will not be afraid of any opponent. His enemies will always hate him and want him to die, while Manchester United fans will always support him and love him until he dies.
