Godfather Of Champions

If I can't win, I will jump into the sea!

In the next few days, this sentence became the headline of almost all the media in England on the sports page, and even became the headline of some media. The frantic hype by the English media on this topic is actually a counterattack to the previous provocations by the Italian media.

When the Italian media published that photo, Tang once told the truth in an interview, not as the Italians understood it. But the Italians did not listen, they were selectively deaf. Entangling around this photo, sincerely unable to live with Nottingham Forest.

This is a psychological warfare before the competition. However, as the parties involved in the psychological warfare, Nottingham Forest and Dunn were very angry at this behavior.

The cruelest thing in Tang En's life was being so insulted.

As a counterattack, the day after the photo was published in the newspaper, he called Pierce Bruce and told him the sentence was published.

Sure enough, after this "one-sentence interview" was published, there was an uproar in both England and Italy, and other countries even moved this title around with the mentality of watching the excitement.

The matter is not over yet.

When I first saw this article, some Italians ridiculed in the media that this was just another boasting of Big Mouth Dunn. He always wrote bad checks and everyone was used to it.

Another day later, BBC Television announced that they had just signed an agreement with Tony Dunn.

According to what Dunn said before, if his team loses to AC Milan in the Champions League final, he will jump into the sea. This agreement is based on this situation and sold the TV broadcast rights for the exclusive live report of the jump to the BBC TV station. The agreement will end at the end of the finals, and the Forest team will automatically take effect after they have confirmed their loss. If the Forest team wins, then BBC TV will get the exclusive right to broadcast the grand celebration ceremony in Nottingham City.

At the same time, with exactly the same content as this agreement, Dunn sold his live network broadcasting rights of jumping into the sea to the famous online video website YOUTUBE. The reporting rights of the print media were sold to three, one is the Nottingham local media "Nottingham Evening Post", the other is the super tabloid "The Sun", which has extensive influence in the UK, Europe and the world. The home was sold to China's "Sports Weekly"-it was Tang Jing's efforts to grab it from other Chinese media.

After these signing news were revealed at the same time, they were undoubtedly blockbuster bombs thrown at the Italians. The Italians who were still laughing at Dunn and bragging before were all silent.

And all over the world, Tony Dunn became famous as the first football coach who promised that he would jump into the sea when he lost, and sold himself the whole process of jumping into the sea...

"He (Tony Dunn) must be crazy..." After a brief collective "lost voice", Italy's "Roma Sport" issued the first Italian voice on this matter.

"...We saw a Hollywood-like comedy movie. The Italians didn't expect Tony Dunn to do things so terribly. After the news that he sold his jump into the sea, we saw the entire Italian media collectively lose their voices. ..." from the comment of BBC's "Today's Game. Sunday Edition" that night.

"Actually, this fits Dun En’s personality very well. He always makes amazing moves that we find incredible. I really don’t know what he has in his mind all day long. He can always come up with so many weird things. Attracting attention. It's a pity that he doesn't go to the entertainment industry. He is better than those entertainment stars." This quote comes from the blog of a famous football commentator on a famous Chinese portal website.

For a time, the whole world was talking about it, what kind of league, the Champions League final...but everyone didn't care about football itself. "The Times" even published a commentator's article dedicated to this matter, which contains a very representative sentence:

"...Compared to the suspense of the finals and the ownership of the championship, everyone is more concerned about whether Tony Dunn jumps or not, and how to do it. I think there will even be many people in order to see Tony Dunn jump. Leap into the Aegean Sea and bet on the forest team to lose in a betting company. Of course, I admit that I am one of those people..."

The person Dunn hated the most was sitting in front of him, with Erlang's legs tilted, holding the goblet with red wine, and squinting at him.

Several documents were scattered on the coffee table between the two. These were the contracts he signed with the media.

"I have no other objection, why would you go to the "Sun"?" Dunn stared at Billy Woods who was sitting opposite him.

"They offer the highest price, and they are the best at doing this kind of thing. Didn't you say that you want to maximize your influence? I can't think of any other print media that is more suitable for this kind of thing than the "Sun"." Wu Kesi sipped his drink and spoke slowly to Dunn.

"Of course I know. But anyone can, "The Sun" I am very upset." Dunn said sternly.

Wookes shrugged, "I don't think this is the tone for a kind person who comes to help, Mr. Dunn."

"I didn't ask you to help..."

Halfway through Dunn's words, he saw Woods pointing behind him: "Of course I can't refuse the cute Shania's request. But are you planning to complain that Shania shouldn't come to me?"

Shania's sullen voice came from behind Dunn: "You asked me to find Mr. Fasall, but he has been too busy recently, so I went to find Mr. Wookes on a personal relationship. I'm sorry. I found someone you don't like, Uncle Tony."

The content is an apology, but you can't hear the meaning of apology in the tone. Dunn quickly got up and waved to Shania who was making coffee for him: "Ah, I didn't mean that..."

This is really a headache. Who makes Wookes and Shania have such a connection?

These two cooperated tacitly, and he could only admit that he was unlucky. He slowed down: "Well, how should I thank you, Mr. Woods."

Billy Woods covered his heart with his hands and made a flattered gesture, with a surprised look on his face: "Ahhh! It's really rare to hear Mr. Dunn speaking to me in such a gentle tone, am I dreaming?"

Dunn coughed embarrassingly, and the other party gave up.

"Should we talk about George's contract, Mr. Dunn?" Woods said with a grin.

"Then I would rather tear these contracts." Dunn said with a straight face.

"Oh, are you kidding me, why be so serious?" Wukes shrugged, helpless to Dunn's incomprehension. "Just as you owe me a favor, Mr. Dunn. I will ask you for it when I need it in the future."

"As long as it's not George's contract, I'm happy."

Dunn wasn't talking about the scene. After the photo came out, he was very angry to tear up all the newspapers that published the photo in his home, and then he planned in his heart how to give the Italians the most effective counterattack. After much deliberation, he thought of what he said when he called Pierce Bruce that day-if I can't win, I will jump off the Aegean Sea!

An idea popped out of my mind uncontrollably, and everyone saw the next thing. Contacting the media was also his idea, but he was only going to tell those media that he would jump into the sea if he loses and invite them to be witnesses.

After hearing about it, Shania said that this was a good opportunity, why not make better use of it? She proposed to dismantle the reporting rights of various media platforms and sell them separately, which will not only make money, but also have a more sensational propaganda effect than simple announcement media, and better revenge against the Italian media.

Dunn accepted this suggestion, but he was not good at this kind of negotiation of contacting the media. Shania volunteered to recommend her agent Fasar. Who knows that Faisal has something to do temporarily and there is no time. Then Shania had to go to Wookes. Of course she knew about the grievances between Dunn and Wookes, but perhaps because she respected Mr. Wookes very much. She hoped that Uncle Tony could settle down with Wooks. Still specifically go to Wooks for help.

She thought that Woods would decline, but she prepared a lot of excuses for this. Unexpectedly, Woods nodded without hesitation after hearing the intention, and Shania was surprised that everything went smoothly.

With Wookes's connections and energy, this is a very beautiful thing. Even the time when the signing news is released, Wookes has made very detailed arrangements. As a result, when these news were announced by the media one by one, Dunn saw the scene he most wanted to see-the Italian media collectively lost their voices, dumbfounded, and had nothing to say.

This is certainly a relief, but if he wants to relieve his qi, he still needs his own efforts.

If he can't beat AC Milan in the final, he has to jump into the sea. This is not a fun thing. He will become the laughing stock of everyone and will be mentioned in a few years.

And if he can defeat AC Milan, he can give back all the anger he received before. At that time, no matter how he humiliated the Italian media, no one dared to be dissatisfied anymore. Because the winner always has the right to speak.

Wookes put the cup down and stood up, he was going to leave.

He stretched out his hand to Dunn: "I have done everything I can do. Mr. Dunn, I don't want the club played by my own players to become a joke in Europe, so it's up to you now. If you can't win, you Everything that I did in a few days will become a grave that I dug for myself."

It is rare for Wookes to speak to himself in such a serious tone. Out of gratitude to him for helping out, Dunn also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Wookes. "I have to correct you a bit, Mr. Wookes. I never dig my own graves. I dig everything that the enemy has booked with me. I don't do any useless work."

Nottingham Forest got the ticket to the Champions League final. It was only one step away from Dunn’s goal for this season. Everyone was very excited, but Dunn had to calm his people down temporarily.

Because on May 5th, the 37th round of the league came.

The three games were scheduled on the same day. Manchester United and Manchester City’s "Manchester Derby" were the first to appear. After this game, Chelsea and Arsenal’s "London Derby", at the end of the game, Nottingham Forest challenged Aston Villa away. The game will also kick off.

Many people are saying that the final results of these three games will directly affect the league title this season.

Dunn didn't take this round of the league too seriously. Playing Aston Villa away, he has made up his mind to take a big rotation-basically the lineup in the Champions Cup semi-finals just now has a good idea, and most people will not appear in the starting lineup of this game again. .

Since he does not intend to fight for the illusory league championship, and the position of third place is also very stable, Dunn will definitely not let his players go to the game at the risk of injury. Just take this opportunity to let others exercise more.

With five hours left before the game, Dunn announced his starting roster-he rarely does this, and this time it seems to be really relaxed.

The forest team's goalkeeper is still Van der Sar, this is the main force that cannot be beaten. Dunn actually wanted to rotate, but Akinfeev bought before the season was loaned back to CSKA Moscow and was not recalled. The recovery effect of Paul Gerrard after the operation was very unsatisfactory. Experts once told Dunn that Paul was likely to end his career early.

This is not good news, Dunn has not given up yet. As he said, when going to Athens, there must be no one in the forest team. He is still waiting for Paul to return, even though time is running out.

The center back is the partner of Wes Morgan and Ayala. The left back is replaced by Gareth Bale, and the right back is replaced by Sun Jihai. George Wood is still starting in this game. Anyway, Tang Eun is still a little cautious deep in her heart. He allows rotation, but it does not mean that he is allowed to lose.

Then, Arteta and Van der Vaart did not appear in the starting roster, replaced by Albertini, who has not appeared in the team's lineup for a long time and is only three games away from retirement. Dunn wanted the Italian veteran to find the game status, because he said that he would give Albertini the best farewell game, which means that Albertini will definitely play in the Champions League final, if he is replaced because of bad condition. ...It's not a good thing for everyone.

On both sides, Petrov on the left replaced Ribery, and on the right because of Ashley Young's injury, Lennon continued to start. The forwards are Bendtner and Anelka.

In the final stages of the season, Anelka frequently got the chance to play instead, which made some people unable to understand. In fact, it's very simple. Because the Forest team wants to sell him, he naturally needs to show him more performance, so that the Forest team will have the confidence to talk to other clubs in the transfer market.

On the day of May 5th, Manchester United challenged city rivals Manchester City in an away game. This game has attracted much attention. Dunn and Mourinho watched the game throughout. Mourinho very much hoped that Manchester United would lose, but unfortunately... the final result disappointed him.

Manchester United scored a difficult three-pointer in the away game, 1:0. This score can explain enough problems. But regardless of how unsightly the scene is, the three-pointers in hand are real. At the press conference after the game, Ferguson's already blushing smile became even more red.

The frustration and pain of just getting out of the Champions League were washed away in this game. There is nothing more enjoyable than double-killing rivals in the same city in one season. Regarding the "same city derby", there is a very interesting phenomenon in European football, that is, fans can accept the loss of heavyweight championships such as the league championship and the Champions League. Even if there is nothing in a season, they can be forgiven, as long as they support The team can defeat their rivals in the same city in the same city derby.

What makes Ferguson so happy is not just the victory over Manchester City. For him, Manchester United's victory over Manchester City is a normal thing. There is no need to be so happy. "So excited" illusion.

Another important reason is that he achieved a crucial victory at the crucial moment in the battle for the league title with Chelsea and continued to maintain a two-point lead over Chelsea, thus putting the pressure on Chelsea. If Chelsea are overwhelmed by the pressure in the next game and play abnormally and lose the game, Manchester United will be only a line away from the league championship.

Later, in London, the key battle between Chelsea and Arsenal officially started.

The competition was quite intense, and both sides had their own reasons and had to work hard.

Wenger certainly didn't want to help Manchester United stop Chelsea for such boring reasons that he spurred the team to make them go all out. He is currently competing with Liverpool for the fourth place in the league. Liverpool are only one point ahead of Arsenal. Their game kicked off an hour earlier than Arsenal’s game. When Wenger’s team stepped onto the court, that The side score is still 0:0. If this score is maintained in midfield, Arsenal will overtake Liverpool as long as they beat Chelsea and become fourth in the league, thus gaining a place in the Champions League.

Not to mention Chelsea's side, if they can't win the game, they will be pulled away by Manchester United in the final sprint. This is not what Mourinho wants to see.

This game has just started ten minutes, and news came from Fulham in southwest London-Fulham scored!

Fulham leads Liverpool 1-0 at home!

The news gave Arsenal a shot in the heart, and they put more pressure on Chelsea at their home court.

Thirty-three minutes later, Chelsea could no longer withstand Arsenal's waves of attacks, and Cech's gate finally fell. Gilberto Silva is Arsenal's scoring hero, 1:0, Arsenal lead!

When Arsenal took the lead, Nottingham Forest was warming up at Aston Villa’s Villa Park. After Dunn heard the news in the dressing room, when the players came back, the first words he said was--

"I changed my mind, guys. We must win this game!"

He still remembers Mourinho mocking him for not even having a chance to "nearly win the league title." Now the situation is very good. He doesn't mind returning this sentence to Mourinho and his Chelsea intact.

When all three games were over, the dust settled, and the league standings that everyone saw became like this:

After winning the city derby, Manchester United still topped the list with 85 points.

The second and third positions have changed.

Chelsea fought back in the second half of the game, scoring the equalizer goal, but unfortunately they could not change the final score. It's not a good result to be tied by Chelsea. If they lose to Chelsea again, Arsenal may be over this season. Wenger and Arsenal worked together and desperately resisted Chelsea's attack while actively seeking opportunities to counterattack. The game time came to the end in such an endless process of entanglement between the two sides. The result was 1:1. No one beat anyone, but no one beat anyone—neither team got the result they hoped.

It can be seen from the expressions of the two coaches Wenger and Mourinho after the game that they were in a bad mood. At that time, Mourinho didn’t know the result of the Nottingham Forest game. If he said that his face was "slightly changing from overcast to light rain," then after knowing the result of the Nottingham Forest game, he immediately became a "thundershower with short-term formation." Gale".

Why is Mourinho so angry, because he knows that in this way, the league standings will undergo changes that he does not want to see.

Nottingham Forest scored a 3-pointer with a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa from the bench. In this way, the league's second place becomes the Nottingham Forest with 82 points. Chelsea, who drew with Arsenal, accumulated 81 points and ranked third.

Although there is no difference between second and third, neither can win the league championship, and both can participate in the Champions League next season. But Mourinho can't tolerate being pressed on his head by someone like Tony Dunn-this is something that makes him more angry than losing the league title.
