Chapter 825 Volume [-] Crimson Microphone

When Guardiola was given Nottingham Forest's starting XI ahead of the game, he saw that name in the front line.At that time, he thought for a while, and then asked the assistant beside him: "Is Ibisevic also injured?"
Vilanova shook his head: "I haven't heard such news. We only know that Eastwood must be injured and miss this game."
When Guardiola heard his most trusted assistant say this, he fell into deep thought again.
He really didn't know why Tony Twain sent this completely unknown striker when Ibisevic was not injured.He didn't even have any information about the person in front of him. He only knew that his name was "Aaron Mitchell". This was because it was written on the starting list.He didn't even know how tall Mitchell was until he saw the real person.Not to mention this person's technical characteristics and real level...

He frowned.Barcelona's defensive training is all against Ibisevic, but Ibisevic is sitting on the bench. Barcelona's defenders know nothing about this person in front of them. How to defend in the game?Observe for a while before talking?Then I hope Nottingham Forest will not take advantage of this to advance the goal...
It seems that it can only be like this.No one in the coaching staff is familiar with this "Aaron Mitchell", so it is even more impossible for the Barcelona players to be familiar with this player who has never heard of it.
This is the scene before the start of the game. Now Guardiola is sitting on the coaching bench of the away team, watching the game on the court.Next door to him, the home team's bench, the head coach's position is empty.The Chinese assistant coach looked like a head coach, but he was a little too nervous.
Guardiola still unconsciously turned his gaze to the stands, as if he could find Tony Twain among so many people.In fact he found nothing.

At this time, Tang En was enjoying football surrounded by a group of fans who were closest to him.
"You rarely watch football from this position, Tony?" The fat man sitting on the left laughed. The game had just started, and his attention was still on the people around him.
"I've been sent to the stands many times, but it's the first time I've been sitting in a stand where die-hard fans gather to watch a game. Well...the view here is much better than that of the coach's bench."
"How about we switch? From now on, you will come here, and I will sit there." John pointed to the Forest team's coaching bench below.
Tang En grinned and said nothing.
Bill on the other side poured cold water on his friend: "I bet you can't even sit for 45 minutes."
"Don't put your own level as a standard on other people, thin man!"
Taking advantage of the bickering between the two, Tang En turned his head and looked up.Nottingham Forest gave the two UEFA supervisors a very good treatment and arranged their actions into the VIP box.But this is actually Tang En's arrangement, including sitting in the stands is also Tang En's idea.Since we are the home field and have the advantage of the home field, we must make good use of it, otherwise it will be a waste of money.
It's not really arranged to sit in the North Stand to be able to enjoy the game with old friends here.Tang En also had another purpose.
He glanced back at the box, but he never found the two game supervisors dressed in black, but he was sure that the two must be watching the game with drinks.
So he interrupted the debate between John and Bill about who was more capable of sitting as Nottingham Forest manager.
"Hey guys. I want to discuss something with you..."
John and Bill stopped arguing at the same time and turned to look at him. "If you need help, just say it, Tony!" This time they reached an agreement.
"Well, it's like this... UEFA people do everything possible to prevent me from communicating with the coaches and players below, so I don't have any communication facilities on me..."
"I'll lend it to you!" Bill took out his phone, but Tang En took a picture of it.
"Don't take it out. You can't even borrow someone else's cell phone. Do you think they don't know what I'm doing here when they're sitting there?" Tang En pointed his finger at it without turning around. "They have a high-powered telescope."
"Wow, it turned out to be like this!" Bill was surprised, it was just a supervision, why act like a voyeur...
"I prepared it for them." Tang En said with a smile.
"Huh?" Both of them were surprised.
"I want to show that I cooperate with them very much and will never play tricks. Providing them with binoculars proves that I have no ghosts in my heart. But in fact..." Dunn laughed like a ghost, and that made John really Want to punch him.
"It's true that I can't contact the following through any means of communication, but UEFA doesn't prohibit fans from shouting, does it?" He laughed again, his eyes narrowed together.
"Hey, Tony! Don't talk about it, just say it! What do you want us to do?" Bill was a little anxious.He is not a very patient person.
"Sometimes I may need to give an update on the situation on the pitch, but I can't tell my coaches, and I can't let the players know what I think. But I think maybe I can tell them through your mouths .If I have information to tell the people below, I hope you will help me shout it out, but not too deliberately. Like cheering for the team in the stands... so, when UEFA asked me Sometimes I have a reason. They can gag me, but they can't gag you. Ha!"
John followed Tang En and laughed.Now he felt that Tony Twain's mind must be different from everyone else's, otherwise how could he come up with so many ghostly ideas?
Bill was a little slow to react, but then suddenly realized.
"It's no problem, Tony!" he shouted excitedly. "We're happy to fight UEFA! I've long since hated those people in suits!" He also shook his fist.
John also patted Dunn on the shoulder: "You just act as if you are standing in the stands directing the game, and we will be your assistant coaches."
Tang En nodded to the two of them: "Thank you!"
John said with a smile: "As long as you can win Barcelona, ​​it will embarrass UEFA. Don't talk about helping you spread your voice, you just want us to pave the way, that's fine!"
After he finished speaking, he got up and left his seat to inform the nearby fans. When the time comes to act collectively, it will not work with two or three people.So the stands all have to know what they're going to do for a while.

Five minutes into the game, Barcelona was very aggressive, because they kicked off first and could use their technical advantages to keep the football on their side.Another reason for Barcelona's fierce offensive is that there seems to be something wrong with Nottingham Forest's midfield iron gate today...George Wood turned his head and looked for that person in the north stand many times during the game.He found it very strange. He always thought that as the captain of the team, he should be a person who could be alone.But when I habitually glanced at the coach's bench before the start of the game, but couldn't find that familiar figure, I felt a little uneasy...
Since when did you start treating him as someone you can rely on?
This is ridiculous!My name is George Wood. I have been working alone in the slums since I was a child, taking care of my mother.I don't need to rely on anyone!
Even though he was thinking this way, he still hopelessly turned his gaze to the North Stand...
There are so many people there that I can't find anything at all.
As he turned his head, Iniesta passed the ball past his defense without him reacting.
※ ※ ※
"George is a little absent-minded..." Tang En muttered from the stands, frowning.
Bill on the "Mikebox No. [-]" pricked up his ears, "Do we need to shout this sentence?"
"Ah? Uh, no need." Tang En quickly waved his hand.The side effect of asking fans to help as a megaphone is that whatever you say casually may be misunderstood as something that needs to be shouted out... If someone is too enthusiastic, there may be an embarrassing scene such as thousands of fans shouting "Malegebide" in unison .Because he is used to babbling dirty words in his mouth while watching football, and they are all in Chinese...
He didn't know what went wrong with Wood, but judging from his performance in the past few minutes, he was always looking around on the field and not paying attention to the game.This is a very rare situation. George Wood has always been known for his concentration, dedication to the game and serious and dedicated attitude.Situations like today should not have happened to him.
So what's wrong?
If he is off the court, he can stand on the sidelines and shout: "George!! What the fuck are you doing!! Give me attention to the game!"
Although he has fans as megaphones now, he can't shout anything.
※ ※ ※
Tang also noticed Wood's abnormality.However, his reaction was different from Tang En's. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then he figured it out.So he raised his head with a smile, and turned back to find the loud voice Chris Lark: "David, tell George for me that Tony is in the middle of the North Stand."
Chris Lark was a little strange: "Didn't you say that in the locker room?"
Tang smiled: "Maybe someone didn't hear it at the time."
Chris Lark shrugged and stood up from his seat.He really felt that his assistant coach was like a nanny, taking care of everything...
After taking a deep breath, he shouted, "George!!"
Wood heard Chris Rack's voice, he turned his head and found that Chris Rack was pointing his finger to the north stand: "He's there! In the middle! Don't look for it! I think he must be dissatisfied with your performance!"
It worked, and Wood glanced at the North Stand before returning to the game.
When Messi was going to break through from him, he interfered, the ball bounced on the turf, knocked on his foot and went out of bounds, which was considered a foul by Nottingham Forest.
"George Wood was a bit out of shape in the first 5 minutes of the game. His position allowed the Barcelona players to break through many times. But now it seems that there should be no problem! Messi tried to do the same trick just now, but he stumbled, not only He failed to make a breakthrough, but gave the Forest team a throw-in under Wood's personal interference."
Messi also felt that the wind had changed.He was like a zebra on the African savannah. When the wind turned, he could smell the smell of lions in the low bushes.He raised his head cleverly, pricked up his ears and looked around vigilantly.
Whether George is willing to admit this feeling or not, his heart is very stable at this moment.The previous one was like a lion taking a nap in the afternoon, lying lazily under the bushes, letting the little rabbits and zebras jump past his nose, not even bothering to lift their eyelids.

But when the last rays of the setting sun fade below the horizon, night falls.Our lion rose from the shadows, staring at his prey with cold eyes.
He is hungry.

When Wood rejoined the game, Barcelona's 5-minute advantage immediately disappeared.In addition, there is another bad news-their people are completely unable to adapt to the dilapidated venue of the city stadium.
When Silva ran into the space on the left wing and raised his arm to demand, Xavi was keenly aware that there were no Forest players around him.So he feinted and passed the football.
Such a pass is as easy as walking for the Spanish national team's playmaker-provided it is on a normal turf.At City Stadium, his pass ended up rolling out of bounds.Silva raised his leg and didn't catch it.Because when the football was in front of him, it suddenly jumped to the left and flew directly out of the touchline!
At first, the Catalan commentator thought that the two had made a mistake in cooperating, but it was a pity that such a good opportunity was missed.But then Barcelona's passing and dribbling made mistakes one after another, and he felt that something was wrong-when he first saw the stadium, he thought it was the poor quality of the turf, with dirt exposed in some places, but now he found that the soil foundation under the turf had question!
"I don't know how the Nottingham Forest Club maintains the turf, but I know that there is no other professional football club in the world that maintains the turf. This must be Tony Twain's idea again! This... is really useless Sportsmanship!" He doesn't have to think about fairness, he is a Catalan commentator, and the people who listen to his show must be Barcelona fans, he doesn't need to think about the mood of England fans, so he is on the show Do everything you can to disparage Barcelona's opponents, and the response has been good at the same time.
After Silva missed the ball, Bo Yang had another very good chance.After he broke through Woodgate, he almost faced Akinfeev alone, but just as he swung his leg to shoot, the football suddenly jumped on the uneven turf!The kick he swung out was useless, and he almost twisted the knee of the supporting foot... Fortunately, he reacted quickly and threw his entire center of gravity out. Although the fall was disheveled and embarrassing, he was not injured at all.
As for football, it is natural for Akinfeev to get it easily.
Akinfeev, who was holding the football, did not forget to smile at Bo Yang, who was lying on the ground covered in dirt.
"It's almost 10 minutes into the game. Barcelona relied on the advantage of possession of the ball after the opening to launch several threatening attacks. George Wood's distraction caused Nottingham Forest's defense to be full of loopholes. But Barcelona did not score a goal. Their players It's like suddenly not playing football, the performance on the field is very...funny. I think it must have something to do with the field. To be honest, the turf of the city stadium is really terrible! This game Barcelona wore a yellow away jersey , but I reckon by half-time their jerseys are going to be brown..."
Seeing his players perform like this, Guardiola, who was sitting on the coach's bench, shook his head.He really has nothing to do. He is not a superman, and he cannot move the turf of Camp Nou to England in an instant.
He can only hope that Nottingham Forest will also be constrained by this stadium at the same time. Even if it is 0-0 in the end, Barcelona will advance.
Such a bad venue is a double-edged sword.No one knows how football will play. Sometimes naughty football will cause trouble for Barcelona, ​​but who can say that at other times, it can't become a nightmare for Nottingham Forest?
