At the press conference after the game, as a winner, Twain got more than usual attention, and the loser Rijkaard sat next to him, looking at him with a blank expression and answering questions from the journalists.
He was familiar with this scene, but the one who was continually answering the question of the journalist was himself, and the one who sat down with a cold face was Tony Twain.
That was after the finals of the season Champion Cup.
At that time, Twain had just thrown a runner-up silver medal. Everyone thought that with his character, he would not attend the final press conference. The fact is almost the same.
After the press conference began, only Rijkaard answered the journalist question there, and Tony Twain's seat was empty.
Halfway through the conference, Twain suddenly entered the venue, sat in his seat, and looked at the Journalist questions with a sullen look at Rijkaard's face.
Let Rijkaard feel that Twain is very unpretentious because it was at the end of the press conference.
In general, as a loser, shouldn't you congratulate the winner? Even if it is against the heart, this kind of behavior can also reflect your own demeanor and win the goodwill of everyone.
Twain has no such intentions. He is very straightforward to say that Champion should be the best performing team, and the best performing team is Nottingham Forest FC.
Not only that, but in the end he added: "I am sorry that Barcelona can only beat ten people in Nottingham Forest FC. ”
This sentence angered Rijkaard until today. Therefore, he will always be dissatisfied with Tony Twain. Rijkaard didn't like to argue with people, a very low-key person.
If Twain didn't insult his team again and again, why bother?
Unexpectedly, less than a year later, he and Twain exchanged positions. The winner became Twain and he became the unwilling loser.
This situation…He suddenly understood Twain's mood at the beginning – at this moment, he wanted to leave and leave…
It is a pity that he is not Twain, and he can't do the kind of "no grace".
If you can't do it, you can only continue to accept this "disguised insult" here.
Twain certainly knows to be a loser. What is the taste at this moment? While enjoying the media, he also sneered in his heart: "This is called Hedong for 30 years, Hexi for 30 years." Rijkaard Mr. ”
In fact, for Barcelona, losing the game from the current point of view may be a disaster. But in the long run, maybe it is a good thing?
Real Madrid CF has not recovered for a few years, and it hurts. In this season, please come to the gold medal coach Capello, Real Madrid revival is just around the corner.
Barcelona is also experiencing the pain of Real Madrid CF. The “Dream II Dynasty” in the media is a deformed product. It took a Champion Cup Champion and two League Titles. Can it be called “Dynasty”?
Twain doesn't think so. A team really wants to create a dominant dynasty era. This achievement is not enough.
If the game lost today. It is possible to calm down the top of Barcelona and rethink how the road ahead will go, and this failure will become a valuable asset in the future.
on the contrary……If the Barcelona people don't see this, just focus on the outcome of this game, then there will be a lot of suffering in the future.
Just look at whether Rijkaard and Laporta can realize this – they are on the old road of Real Madrid CF “Galácticos”. The ending, although Twain passed before that, but he can think of it with his knees, no suspense.
Sometimes he feels very strange. Real Madrid CF is in front of you, are Barcelona's top executives fools? I can't see it, I am still trying to lean on that road.
Or……The temptation of business interests is so big? Let them pursue it in desperation.
At the time, he attacked Real Madrid CF at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium Stadium, which directly led to Florentino's disappointment and resignation. Real Madrid CF's "Galaxy Age" also ended.
I don't know if this time, can you end Barcelona's illusory "Dream II"?
He is looking forward to it.
Finally, there was a journalist who threw the question at Rijkaard. Rijkaard had nothing to say about being eliminated from the Champion Cup. Losing to Nottingham Forest FC is a fact.
What makes him even more uncomfortable is that he is still being killed by the other party’s main game venue venue…He now also wants to think like Twain, his mouth is hard to die.
But if he did, wouldn’t it be that he was very unpretentious?
The microphone was all on his lips, everyone looked at him, and even Tony Twain next to him squinted at himself, he had to say something.
Rijkaard coughed and slowly approached the microphone.
He intends to show a little grace, but when he intends to open his mouth. I heard the laughter from Twain coming from the side. A anger in my heart suddenly rose.
I lost to you. But it does not mean that I still accept your insult!
"We lost, nothing to say. No one wants to be eliminated. and I am looking forward to the Champion Cup in the season. I really hope that Barcelona will be drawn together with Nottingham Forest FC. ”
After saying this, he got up and left, and the coach made his first trip to the press conference in advance.
Twain looked at Rijkaard's stubborn back, shrugged and whistled.
Rijkaard hasn't gone out yet. He said to those media who are still a bit strange: "Hey, eleven people to eleven people, Barcelona can't win Nottingham Forest FC, I am not talking about it. ”
Rijkaard, who was just about to go out, suddenly paused and then walked out.
"Okay, ladies, Mr.
We don't want to play a one-man show. "Twain also stood up," he said. He waved his hand and followed Rijkaard out.
A few days later, various reports on the game in the media were on the list.
Twain's words were put in a prominent position as a quotation, and his and Rijkaard's grudges seemed more irreconcilable with the help of the media.
I don't know if one day they will go down from the position of the coaching staff and say goodbye to football. Is it possible to sit down with a glass of wine?
He doesn't hate Rijkaard at all, but now they are their masters. The ass decides the head and sits in what position. Naturally consider what.
When he was still a fan, he didn't even think about it. He would be a rival to the three Musketeers in the Netherlands.
Mourinho, Benitez, Ferguson, Wenger, Capello…Those who he liked or respected at the beginning became opponents and enemies. This world is wonderful.
Therefore, Rijkaard is not the first enemy in his coaching career, and will definitely not be the last one.
With such an annoying character of his own, there is no enemy to see a ghost.
The only thing that made Barcelona people happy was that their rival, Real Madrid CF, was eliminated on the night after the game. This news has somewhat balanced some of the Barcelona people who have also been eliminated.
But they don't know. This is the beginning of Barcelona's nightmare…
Ok, let's put Barcelona aside, or turn the Barcelona page over and they are past tense.
The fact that the Forest team has achieved this major victory does not mean that they can now start their celebrations with a sigh of relief.
On the road to Walk On, Tony Twain and his Nottingham Forest FC have more opponents to face.
Just ending and Barcelona's Champion Cup, Tony Twain is going to lead the team to London, their opponent is not someone else. It was another enemy of Twain, Mulino, who led Chelsea.
Benson Mourinho is a bit depressed and wants to lead the team to defend the League Title for three consecutive years, but has been strongly suppressed by the re-emergence of Manchester United FC, which has been second in the league standings.
Not only that, but there is also Nottingham Forest FC behind. Mourinho certainly does not think that Twain will let him relax with a good heart. If he is not careful, he may be caught up by the other side and there is no bone left.
Professional football is so cruel. No matter how famous you are, a Manager, if the rate is unsatisfactory, it will soon be forgotten.
As the season ends, whether it is relegation or title competition, it must start to work. Twain knows that this trip is too much, and he is best prepared in Nottingham.
Every time he goes to Stan Fuqiao, he and his team have to face the overwhelming buzz. I just had Rijkaard and his team tasted this taste, and it was their turn to taste it.
Twain's Tactics for the team is simple – stick to it. Defensive and defend at the away game venue. Hold a point and ok. He didn't ask for a three-pointer, because for his "guest", one point is actually a victory.
With eight rounds left in the league, Chelsea's points difference with Manchester United FC is six points. Only by taking Nottingham Forest FC can you keep pressure on Manchester United FC and hope to make a comeback at the last minute.
If Mourinho can't get a three-point, what kind of situation would it be?
fly into a rage?
Gloomy face and go away?
Twain is now looking forward to playing with Chelsea. Especially looking forward to seeing "old friend" Mourinho.
Stanford Bridge is packed. This is the case every time between Chelsea and Nottingham Forest FC. Due to the "private grudges" between the two Managers, the confrontation between the two teams will attract the attention of many media and fans.
They want to see two Managers on the field. On the sidelines, in the middle of the game, outside the tit for tat.
After Ferguson and Wenger, the media were deeply grateful for the English Premier League. They were still worried that if Ferguson retired, there would be any gossip about the report, and now it is not necessary.
Before the game, Journalist unscrupulously mentioned the record that made him awkward for Mourinho. Since he coached Chelsea, he has maintained a "unbeaten" record against Tony Twain's Nottingham Forest FC.
This made Mourinho very angry. He turned his face down and tried to refuse to answer the question.
He is not happy, of course, the media are happy to see the land, but if he really does not answer this question, the media can not get any valuable information, so do everything possible to ask him to answer this question.
Finally forced to rush, Mourinho said gloomy: "I never care what records…Arsenal FC created an unbeaten record for forty-nine consecutive games. Did they finally win the season's Champion trophy? I don't deny that my team has not beaten his team, but you can't deny that the league titles of the past two seasons are my Chelsea.
Not Nottingham Forest FC. Of course, you can change this question to ask Tony Twain – you ask him why his team can remain unbeaten against Chelsea, but can't get even one Champion? ”
This is really poisonous, he cleverly changed the focus of the journalist attention to a direction.
Which is important to keep an unbeaten record and capture Champion? The fool can see it.
Pierce .Bruce, a fan of Nottingham Forest FC and a journalist from Nottingham, felt it necessary to frustrate this person. He stood up: "But, Mourinho Mr. You can't deny it.
As a newly promoted team and a team manager who was not optimistic before, Tony Twain has done enough for the two seasons…"
Mourinho interrupted his words and nodded: "Yes, almost got the League Title, almost got the Champion Cup Champion…Unfortunately, in my football creed, 'almost' is equal to failure. ”
This words put Pierce.Bruce's refutation was speechless. Champion is the only criterion for measuring success in professional football, and Mourinho insists on “Champion”.
For the Forest team who did not get Champion, they must admit that they are lower than Chelsea.
Bruce is not a character who is good at words and debates with others. He is somewhat embarrassed and defeated.
Things haven't been played yet, and Mourinho left the interview area after saying so, a few minutes later. The media waited for Twain who just got off the bus.
Someone relayed Mourinho's remarks to Twain, hoping to see Twain's reaction.
Twain listened very carefully to the storytelling of the journalist, but nodded and smiled: "Mulino is very interesting, almost got League Title. Almost got the Champion Cup Champion, which is a good word for the loser to cover up his failure.
I am very happy to compete with Chelsea at this time because we are fortunate to let Mulino Mr.
At the end of this season, I tasted the 'almost' taste of League Title. ”
After saying this, he smiled and waved goodbye to other journalists and quickly got into the visiting team locker room.
Bruce looked at Twain's back and sighed in his heart: It didn't need to be shot by himself. There is a more powerful role here.
Wait for the players to warm up from the Stadium. Twain has been waiting in the locker room for a long time.
Defense "After everyone was quiet, he claped. "If we want to fight with Chelsea here and attack, believe me, guys, that must be our 'death battle'."
I will give you a brief analysis of the situation. Chelsea is in desperate need of victory and three points to catch up with Manchester United FC. In the case of eight rounds left in the league, in theory they are best to win every game. Otherwise, six points is not a small gap.
We just have to tie Chelsea to this game. For Mourinho, it must be a big blow. At the same time, defense at the away game venue is an insurance strategy. But don't let go of the chance of scoring. Twain shook his fingers.
"A ball may just subvert everything. But I want you to keep in mind that in any case, the defense is the first place, first make sure we don't lose the ball, then consider how to get into their ball! ”
As Twain said in the locker room, Mourinho must win this game, so he sent the strongest attack lineup at home, Drogba, Shevchenko, Ballack, Lampard…All the offensive players that can be sent out are all in battle.
In response to this situation, Twain responded with the 451's defensive counter.attack lineup.
The five midfielders were used to deal with Chelsea's "world class" midfielder.
The actual results are not bad. For most of the game, both sides are doing tug-of-war in the midfield. The Forest team's tight defense and completely shameless rogue play made Chelsea very painful.
Both sides' mistakes are constantly increasing. It is often that the Forest team lost the ball with a mistake. Chelsea got another pass and immediately passed the ball and returned the football.
The Forest team is not afraid of mistakes, but Chelsea can't afford to make mistakes. They are wasting their own offensive opportunities.
The game scene was a mess, and neither side had any high quality attack. The Forest team didn't intend to have any high-quality offense, and used a beautiful match to pass the football into Chelsea's goal.
Chelsea is eager to play a high-quality offense, but it is always blocked at the crucial moment by the destructive kicking of the Forest team.
The game time was consumed in this way.
Of course, there is no chance at all. Chelsea created the three most threatening opportunities in the game, especially before the end of the game. After a series of amazing cooperation, Chelsea successfully opened the defense of the Forest team. But Drogba's last foot is too high for the crossbar.
That time, Mourinho almost slammed his suit on the ground. After seeing the football fly out, Twain took a sigh of relief and leaned on the chair and didn't want to get up.
If the opponent is allowed to score at the last minute, his team's 90-minute effort will be wasted.
After ninety minutes, looking at 0:0 on the scoreboard, listening to the final whistle sounding in the ear, Mourinho's face is colder than the South Pole.
Twain, who is a bit like "the rest of the robbery", laughs like a spring breeze. He takes the initiative to reach Mulinío: "My friend, you almost won us." He deliberately highlighted the word "almost". "It's a pity, just almost.
”
Mourinho doesn't want Twain to be too proud. He also knows that if the face is frustrated or angry, it is the bastard who wants to see it, so he can't let him get what he wants.
So he made a strong smile: "There are still seven rounds in the league, Twain Mr. But there is something very positive, do you want to listen? ”
Twain made an ear-washing look.
"My team still has a chance to compete for Champion, and your team won't even have the chance to get the League Title." ”
Twain’s face changed, but he quickly returned to normal. He smiled at Mourinho: “That good luck to your team and get an early 'Almost League Title'”
Next, two people with bad looks loosened each other's hands and turned away from the Stadium.
Bruce saw this scene next to him and shook his head slightly. They are two…
