champion godfather

Chapter 650 Juan Wuhong is still undefeated
Breaking into the semi-finals of the Champions Cup, and for three consecutive years, this is a very remarkable achievement. Even if he can't win the Champions Cup at the end of this season, Tony Twain has his name engraved in the history of the Champions Cup.His prestige in Nottingham Forest was in full swing. Outside of England, when people mentioned "Nottingham Forest", they only said it was Tony Twain's team, and they didn't know who the real owner of this club was.He became the image spokesperson of Nottingham Forest. When Tony Twain was mentioned, he would naturally think of Nottingham Forest. Speaking of Nottingham Forest, the first thing that came to mind was Tony Twain, not the stars.

Complacent on the court, Tang En is also a winner off the court.Just after the Champions Cup match, Armani Company announced that Tony Twain had become their national advertising spokesperson in the UK. Large photos of Tony Twain wearing an Armani trench coat appeared in specialty stores in major shopping malls.

This is something that has been decided long ago, but it has not been made public. Armani has been looking for a suitable opportunity to announce that it is obviously the best opportunity to advance to the semi-finals in the Champions Cup.Before that, Tang En had taken the time to take a few groups of photos, and it was time to use them.It made Tang En feel ashamed to say that, although this matter was proposed a year ago, it was only recently that Shania, who was far away in the United States, set the bridge and completely facilitated it.This is his own business, but Shania cares more than him...

Speaking of Shania, the little girl is doing well in the United States.Because she already had some friends in the entertainment industry before, so she is not a rookie who just went to Hollywood. She has many people to take care of her there, so Tang En doesn't need to worry about it - he can't worry about it even if he wants to. The entertainment industry is not him field of.

Shania likes movies very much, and now she likes to be able to work in the place where the movie is produced. She doesn't have much resistance to busy work like catwalks.In Hollywood, apart from sometimes flying around the world to promote the fashion products she endorses, she spends more time living in Hollywood, getting in touch with famous movie stars, and another very important job is to take classes—— An acting class arranged by her agent, Mr. Fasal.Now that I have decided to give the film industry a try, the necessary homework is always indispensable.

Shania's enthusiasm was very high, and she didn't feel depressed during the phone chat with Tang En. This was the most reassuring thing for Tang En.He was afraid that the little girl would play childish temper and make it difficult for Fasal.

The only pity is that Shania will settle in the United States for a period of time for the sake of business convenience and cannot return to the UK.

After Shania settled in the United States, the happiest person was Beckham's wife Victoria.Although her husband went against her wishes at the last moment and chose to return to the UK instead of going to the United States, she temporarily begged for perfection, but in fact she never stopped thinking about going to the United States.It was no news that she wanted to go to a colorful world like Hollywood, and Beckham didn't think there was anything wrong, after all, he had a career, and his wife also had a career.

Victoria sometimes flies to the United States to find Shania, and then she will lead her to get acquainted with other Hollywood stars.

At this time, Beckham became a lonely family, and he was in the same sympathy as Tang En.

The Champions Cup broke into the semi-finals, and the next match will have to wait until the end of April. Tony Twain has nearly a month to prepare for the league strategy.The competition for the league championship has entered a fever pitch:

After the No.30 three league rounds on April 76th, Nottingham Forest ranked second with 77 points, Manchester United temporarily topped the list with [-] points, and Arsenal ranked third with [-] points.The most promising teams to win the league championship are basically these three teams.

Although Chelsea has changed their head coach, it seems that their performance in the league has not improved at all. Now they are out of the top four by Liverpool. Their league goal is not to win the league championship, but to strive to win the Champions League next season Qualifications for the talent competition...

It was quite embarrassing for the winner of the league championship for two consecutive years to be reduced to such a state.But professional football is like this, there is no general victor in the world, there will always be ebb and flow.

Compared with the results in the league, Chelsea's performance in the Champions League was surprisingly strong.

Originally, after Mourinho got out of get out of class, everyone believed that Chelsea would face a complete collapse, and the league and the Champions League would be defeated. Even if they had already qualified for the group stage, they would definitely not go far in the knockout stage.

Tony Twain thinks so, of course he thinks so with some subjective emotions of his own...

But he is really not optimistic about Grant's coaching ability.Inconsistent performances in the league confirmed this, but firmness in the cup overturned this perception.

There are three teams from the Premier League in the top four of this year's Champions Cup. One is Tony Twain's Nottingham Forest, the other is Ferguson's Manchester United, and the remaining one is Grant's Chelsea.

They all led the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League. Tony Twain was praised, but the voices surrounding Grant were still "doubt".Quite simply, the opponent that the Forest team defeated in the quarter-finals was the powerful Real Madrid, while Chelsea's opponent was a team like Fenerbahce. Regardless of the home field factor, the strength of this team is between eight teams. The team is the bottom one.

Therefore, Chelsea's victory cannot be convincing.Moreover, there is still a popular saying among the media and fans-Grant's current achievements are all based on Mourinho's foundation, so there is nothing to praise.Because Grant's current lineup is basically the same as Mourinho's, and Shevchenko is still sitting on the bench. Judging from the game, there is also a strong Mourinho style. Still follow the set when Mourinho was in office...

How, you say, could any achievement be convincing in such a context?

So the relationship between Grant and the English media is very bad.Although Mourinho has had disputes with the media many times, in general, the media likes the existence of such a topical figure as Mourinho, and Grant cannot create any topics for the media at all. He caused a war of words with other coaches. He is not handsome. He is not an idol of middle-aged and elderly women. He is just an ordinary team coach.Such a person inherited Mourinho's position. Compared with the two, Grant is really disappointing...

Let's look at another person, Tony Twain.For the English media, having Tony Twain around was like celebrating the holidays every day.Just sent away Real Madrid, which caused a war of words between the two countries, and attracted Chelsea, which has always had old grievances.

Remember the series of disturbances caused by Mourinho's resignation?Tony Twain, who had nothing to do with him, became the protagonist, but the media just liked it.While criticizing Twain openly and without thinking in their respective positions, they hoped that Uncle Tony Twain would suffer from brain cramps a few more times so that they would have circulation.

In the No.30 round of the league, Nottingham Forest challenged Chelsea away.The media became excited like wild dogs in heat.

Grant didn't want to talk more about his grievances with Twain. In fact, they had no grievances at all, it was just "who is that" that Twain said at the time.

But the media insisted on asking Grant to express his opinion on this.The questions raised around him had nothing to do with the team at all, they were all "how is Tony Twain" and the like.

Later, Grant couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at the media: "When I first took office, you always talked about Mourinho. Now you are talking about Tony Twain. Are you here to interview me or those two people? I know you compare me to Mourinho, but I think I've done a good job - leading the team to the Champions League semi-finals! What does it have to do with me not being ideal in the league?"

His sudden outburst caused an uproar among reporters.

Now that it had exploded, Grant simply finished the sentence: "Why are we not in a good position in the standings? How else can I explain it? I can only do my job well, but in fact it is--when When I accepted the team, we were already so many points behind the leaders. After that we have been chasing other teams, which is not easy. What else do you want? You think Mourinho is inferior to me, So why am I the one sitting here doing the interview and not him?"

The taste of attacking Mourinho in these words is already very, very strong.

When the media had been criticizing Grant for being inferior to Mourinho before, he didn't see him come out to refute. I didn't expect the first counterattack to be so naked.He said that, isn't he afraid of offending the power in the locker room?Everyone knows that his ability to manage the locker room is low, and he can't hold down those big names at all, and now he is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire by saying so.Could it be that just leading the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League made him harden his back?

After saying this, Grant got up and walked away.

As soon as he left, Tang En came in, watching Grant leave with a mocking smile on his face.He had heard the whole process of Grant's rage outside the door before.He felt that what Grant said was ridiculous, and the way of shifting responsibility to his predecessor was too untechnical.

He decided to provoke the other party further.

"When I took over Nottingham Forest in the second half of the Championship, the team ranked fourth from the bottom, and we returned to the Premier League after half a season." Encouragement. 'When I take over this team, what's the team's ranking' is only an incompetent person's excuse... Ah, of course I am not saying that Mr. Grant is incompetent, please stop twisting My words. You must know that being able to lead the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League is a remarkable achievement... If I were Grant, I would give up the league and concentrate on preparing for the Champions League. Anyway, Chelsea will definitely not win the league this season. "

Although what he said is true, and his suggestions are also very reasonable.But to the Chelsea fans, anyone can say that, except for Tony Twain, who said it was a naked provocation.

Whether Grant was further irritated, Tang En did not know before the game, because he was not being interviewed, and no one knew what his thoughts were.

It wasn't until the game that Twain got the answer—Grant was burning with anger and wanted to settle the score with Twain.

Chelsea went all out at home to try to beat Nottingham Forest.In fact, no matter whether they anger their coach or not, Chelsea will not let Nottingham Forest go in vain at home.

The two sides have accumulated enough deep grievances over the past few years, what Tang En did was to add more fuel to the burning fire.

If Chelsea wants to attack, Nottingham Forest will defend.Playing defensive counterattacks in away games is what the Forest team is good at. Tang En was afraid that Chelsea would not attack, but now it is better.

No matter how fierce Chelsea's offensive is, Nottingham Forest, who is used to this kind of scene, dealt with Chelsea patiently amidst the boos all over the sky.The counterattack must be defended first. The Chelsea fans in the stands tried their best to insult and stimulate Nottingham Forest, but Twain's team remained unmoved.

This game is basically Chelsea's half-court offense and defense around the Forest team.The score was always 0:0.

At the end of the game with 10 minutes left, Grant suddenly figured it out - for the current Nottingham Forest, the only result they can accept is to win, because the bite with Manchester United is very tight, if they do not win, they may lose the championship hope.So even if it's a draw, it's probably a failure for Tang En.And I can accept a draw, since that's the case...

He decided to stop the team from attacking, and after a round of dealing with the forest team, one point was enough to make Dunn fly into a rage.For this disrespectful opponent, preventing him from getting the result he most wanted was the best revenge.

Playing just to avenge his opponent, Grant has already fallen behind in terms of realm.

At this moment, Dunn replaced two attacking players in one go, Arshavin and Petrov, replaced the exhausted full-backs Rafinha and Leighton Barnes, and withdrew George Wood. With Pepe and Kompany playing three central defenders.As soon as the forest team changed their image of being passively beaten and embarrassed, they began to take the initiative to attack, and dared to invest in troops when attacking-except for the three central defenders, everyone went up.It was no longer the pitiful appearance of only two or three people participating in the previous counterattack.

The defensive pressure was eased, and Nottingham Forest's offense began to show off.

This sudden change made Chelsea unexpected, and the Forest team suddenly stepped up their offensive and made them overwhelmed.

No.807 minutes, Chelsea, who scored eight and 10 minutes, became the lagging side.

1: 0!

Arshavin raised his arms and shouted.

Nottingham Forest eventually won the game.Tang En left Stamford Bridge with a smile. Although Mourinho has left, his unbeaten record against Chelsea is still continuing, and the grievances between him and Chelsea will continue...
