Chapter 718
The next day, Greenwood saw Chen Jian running over with the ball in North Wilford, and was a little surprised: "Chen, what are you doing?"

"Practice the ball, Coach Greenwood." When Chen Jian stopped talking to Greenwood, he tiptoed the football and started juggling it.

Seeing him like this, Greenwood smiled: "You don't have to do this on the way here, do you?"

Chen Jian shook his head: "Besides this, I can't think of any other way. I don't have much time, Coach Greenwood. There are less than five months left, and I have to..." He paused, "The time for training is limited, so I will Use the way here and the way home to work on the ball."

Greenwood looked at this Chinese kid. In fact, he still didn't understand why Tang En suddenly became so angry with Chen Jian yesterday.But it's not something that has to be figured out.He became more and more interested in Chen Jian.

"Well, although you took the initiative to practice some additional training items for yourself. But don't expect any cuts in your plan during the daily training for a while."

Chen Jian nodded: "That's the best, Coach Greenwood." After speaking, he was about to say goodbye to Greenwood, but was stopped.

"Chen. Tell me, what is your ideal? Or, why did you come here for a year of training?"

"Play professional football." Chen Jian replied without hesitation.

"Where are you kicking?"

Chen Jian thought about it this time. "If...you can play in the UK or Europe, of course it's great. But even if you can't, it's okay to play in other places."

"What about your home country?"

Chen Jian was stunned.

"I..." He didn't know how to answer this question.He is naturally Chinese, and he is naturally patriotic.But he also knows what football is like in China, and what the so-called professional league Chinese Super League is all about.In the end, he seemed to have made up his mind and replied, "If I were to play professional football, I would not go back to China to play."

Greenwood nodded in understanding.He has heard about the level of Chinese football because Tang, Sun Jihai, and "China Hand" Tony Twain are in the team.Such an environment is really not suitable for a person who wants to play professional football with all his heart.

Greenwood patted Chen Jian on the shoulder: "Come on, there are still five months."

Chen Jian is trying hard to tear down the wall that blocks his way forward.

After training Chen Jian in the rain, Tang En woke up the next day and found that his head hurt when he shook it.But he didn't take it seriously. After breakfast, he rested for a while, and then went to Wilford to work.

But not long after he stood beside the training ground, he felt that he couldn't hold on any longer. He didn't sneeze, runny nose, or cough, just had a headache.It was as if something was about to rush out of his temple. The swelling pain affected his thinking. He was weak all over, his back muscles were sore, and he felt cold.

He turned and walked to the back, leaning against the pillars supporting the awning, trying to rest.

Chris Luck was on the field with a whistle in his mouth to watch the players practice, while Don stood off the field to prepare for the next training program.He found that Tang En was no longer standing in his original position, and looked back strangely.

He saw Tang En leaning weakly against the pillar, shaking his head slightly from side to side.

Seeing this scene, he quickly stopped all the work in his hands and walked over quickly.

"what happened?"

Seeing that it was Tang En, Tang En continued to shake his head: "My head hurts."

"Go and see a doctor."

"Waste of time." Tang En continued to shake his head.

"Then let Fleming come over and show you."

"He is an expert in sports injuries, but not a doctor who can treat everything." Tang En felt that this idea was even more unreliable.

Don ignored him and turned to Fleming, who was examining Beckham's ankle.

"Gary, there's something wrong with Tony. Can you go and see?"

Fleming and Beckham raised their heads at the same time, looking at Tang En in the distance.They saw Dunn shaking his head vigorously.

Fleming pressed hard on Beckham's left ankle, and the painful Beckham gritted his teeth and gasped.

"Ice it after training. You need to rest here, don't push yourself too hard, David." After he finished speaking to Beckham, he got up and went to find Dunn.

"What's the matter?" Fleming and Don both asked the same first sentence.

"Headache." Tang En replied the same.

Fleming reached out and put his hand on Tang En's forehead. Tang En's neck shrank from the cold of his hand, and the back of his head hit the pillar, grinning in pain. "It's cold, your hands."

Fleming ignored it, and rushed to press his hand on Tang En's forehead, and continued to ask, "Apart from the headache?"

Tang En thought for a while and said, "My muscles are sore, I'm tired, and I'm a little cold..."

"I have a cold, idiot." Fleming shook his head. "I heard that you threw away your umbrella yesterday and scolded a Chinese boy in the rain for several minutes. Your whole body was soaked. Did you go back to take a shower?"

Tang En shook his head: "I just washed it the day before yesterday..."

"Poor bachelor." Fleming muttered, "Go back to rest and take some antipyretics. If it doesn't work, go to the hospital and get an injection."

"Don't say it so seriously, what kind of hospital do you need to go to..." Tang En didn't want to leave.Now that the team has a lot of things going on, how can he walk away?
"If you don't leave, I can't guarantee that you won't infect others with your cold." Of course, Fleming knew what Tang En was thinking, and he pointedly stated the reason that Tang En couldn't refuse.

Tang En looked at Tang and Fleming who were slowly backing away from him, and raised his hands: "Okay, okay. I'm going back. I leave everything here to you. Don, you tell Chris Lak they said One sound. I will not go there, lest Gary say that I am the source of infection..."

Fleming was good at slamming him: "Hurry up, hurry up, you leave early, we will be safer!"

Tang En glared at him, turned and walked outside.

When Fleming and Tang walked towards Tang En together, the people on the field actually noticed what happened there, and they were a little surprised when they saw Tang En suddenly turn around and walk out.

Tang came over and whispered a few words in Chris Rack's ear.The assistant coach smiled, clapped his hands, and shouted to the players, "Well, there's nothing to see. Your boss was caught in the rain yesterday, and he has a headache and fever. To prevent him from infecting us, Fleming has Drive him home."

Some of the players chuckled.

"Don't laugh. The temperature has dropped very quickly recently, and it rains all day long, making people feel moldy. So you have to pay special attention. After training every day, you must take a bath with hot water and change into clean clothes. At this time, I don't I hope that the results will be dragged down by a small cold virus! Well, keep training and don't let your bodies cool down!"

※ ※ ※

Tang En returned home, took some messy cold medicine and antipyretics, added two quilts for himself, took a hot bath, wrapped himself in three thick quilts, and put himself on the bed Lie down and resign yourself to fate.

Lying on the bed, he was still writhing all over his body.It seems that this cold is really serious...

But it's just a little rain... As for it?He complained of bad luck in his heart.I thought to myself, when did I take medicine for a cold before, and have I been so tossed?When did you not do nothing to resist the past?It seems that this body is really old, and it is gradually aging every day, every minute, and every second.When he thought that people's time travel was tantamount to rebirth, and he had lost more than ten years of life by time travel by himself, he was a little angry.

But there's nothing you can do if you get angry about this kind of thing. If you gain something, you will lose something.He got fame, honor, and money that he could not have imagined before, and he might even reap a very strange love. It is necessary to sacrifice more than ten years of life in exchange.How can there be something beautiful in this world that you don't want to pay for but can still achieve what you want?

Now he is most worried about whether such a self can be in time to direct the League Cup a day later.

You know, the opponent in that game was Arsenal...

Also, thinking about the situation the team is currently facing, he feels that he cannot lie here and rest with peace of mind.

The team has just won a 1-0 victory over underdog Stoke City in the league, and the state of the players is still ups and downs.Although the team is now ranked third, the points gap with the top two is getting farther and farther.Chelsea and Liverpool share 29 points, Arsenal also won, 23 points tightly biting Nottingham Forest with 24 points.Although Manchester United lost to Arsenal and ranked fifth with 21 points, they had one game less than the top teams.

Before the winter transfer window opens, he cannot be stretched too far by the top two, nor can he be surpassed by Arsenal and Manchester United.In January, let's see if there are any free transfer players that can be bought without spending money, as well as those players who are very cheap and cheap, and can be bought to supplement the strength of the team to cope with the past winter.

His swollen mind kept thinking about one or another problem, and the effect of the medicine began to kick in. Tang En felt drowsy, and he slowly fell asleep.

Tang En finally defeated the cold virus before the League Cup. Although he was still a little tired physically and had intermittent coughing and wheezing, which would happen when he spoke too hard, he was mentally fine.So he didn't take it to heart. Based on his experience, after a cold, it would take a while for the symptoms to heal completely?You don’t need to take any medicine, just rely on your body to recuperate slowly and cook it yourself.So busy all day long, if the symptoms are not too obvious, who remembers to take medicine on time?

Nottingham Forest, with the reserve team and the youth team as the main force, lost 1:3 at the Emirates Stadium to Arsenal, which also played with the youth team.Stopped in the third round of the League Cup for three consecutive years.

The score of this game very intuitively showed the gap between the two teams in terms of youth team strength.Arsenal over there is full of evil spirits and stars are shining.Carlos Vela scored two goals alone, and Jack Wilshere (Jack_Wilshere) scored another goal before the end, completely sealing the victory.

For Nottingham Forest, only Shaheen scored a goal, which saved a little face for the away Forest team.

Although he lost the game, for Twain, he was still very happy to see that Shaheen performed well in this game. He alone supported the team's offensive organization. He also scored a goal himself.In the physical confrontation with the Arsenal players, he no longer had any scruples and dodges. It seems that he has got rid of the psychological shadow of that serious injury.

He felt that the time had come and it was time for Shaheen to play in the first team.The team is very short of people now, and Shaheen's arrival can relieve Van der Vaart's burden.The Dutchman has indeed been reused here, but it also puts him under pressure.Even George Wood has someone who can be rotated. Dunn can't always let Ribery play in the middle.

During the handshake after the game, Tang En praised Wenger's young talents, and couldn't hide the urge to drool.Wenger pretended not to see it, and praised Shaheen on his side with a smile: "Six months ago, almost no one would have believed that he could have such a performance on the court. Tony, you are very good at turning waste into treasure. "

Tang En smiled wryly: "I was forced." That's right, they were all forced.If the Forest team has a mature youth training system like Arsenal and a world-wide reputation for valuing young talents, and there are all kinds of young talents appearing in the youth team, why can he only rely on one Shaheen?
It took Wenger a decade to get Arsenal to where they are today.I have only been six years old, and I still have a long way to go in my coaching career...

"Hey, Professor. Is Wilshere on loan?" Tang En got the idea of ​​the young geniuses of Arsenal.Since there is no money to buy people, how about renting some to help the team tide over the difficulties?
Wenger shook his head: "He is in my first team plan, Tony."

Tang En muttered "stingy", where is it in the first team plan?That is to say, in games like the League Cup, where Wilshere is allowed to play, there are very few opportunities to play in the league, and even if he does play, it is only during garbage time.In fact, to put it bluntly, I just don't want to loan such a good player to a direct competitor, and I don't want to strengthen the opponent's strength.He stopped talking about loan players. "I wish you all the best in the League Cup."

"Thank you."

After losing the League Cup, Twain once again became the focus of attention of the British media.

It wasn't because of anything that happened in that game. Tang En neither provoked the Arsenal fans on the sidelines, nor glared at the fourth official, nor questioned the fairness of the referee in the post-match press conference. sex.He calmly accepted the loss, since the League Cup was not in his plan anyway.

It wasn't the game that put him in the spotlight.It's the publication of a new book...

Carl Spike, a famous reporter of the Daily Telegraph, has been tinkering with the book for half a year and finally released it.Since he would take the initiative to talk about this book in many interviews before this, this scary book with a long name had long been known to everyone he promoted before it was released.

"What Kind of Man Was He——Explore the Mysterious Aura of Tony Twain"

On the cover of the red-backed book is a blurred background, and the white text of the title occupies the entire space, pressing against the heavy-colored background and black blurred background.

In the TV talk show, Spike held up the book and told the public with a serious face:
"He was a 'phenomenon.'"

This is also the sentence on the title page of this book.

The author's name, after Tang En knew that he was conducting that extremely boring investigation, he paid attention to it, and found that almost all the voices that were unfavorable to him came from this person's pen.It turned out to be a firm "Tang Enhei".

So he wrote this book in order to hack himself in different ways, and at the same time earn money for the manuscript?

The book was sold out as soon as it came out. The publishing house did not expect a book analyzing Twain to sell so well. Even if they were not Forest team fans or football fans, they would all come to buy it.So it was printed urgently, and Luoyang paper was expensive for a while.

Carl Spike triumphantly announced in his column that this is a very serious "social proposition", definitely not those boring private gossip biographies of celebrities, and he also refused to admit that he did it to spoof Twain, it was an act Art.

In the book, there is hardly a single good thing about Tang En. It is all about scolding him, criticizing him, questioning him, and satirizing him.Subjective bias is very obvious.But such a book is a big hit in the UK. It only came out for a week, and it was on the UK bestseller list in November, ranking third, and there is still a strong momentum to continue to hit the top of the list. .

The book with Tony Twain's name printed on it was so popular, but Twain didn't get any money.He felt as if he had been taken advantage of.
