While everyone was still discussing the exciting game last night, the Nottingham Forest players were already performing morning adaptive training at Stamford Bridge.

In this training class, Tang En did not ask the team to conduct any closed training camps. Journalists from all walks of life gathered at Stamford Bridge, hoping to see what the forest team is doing when they are closed these days.

The result disappointed them. Of course, Tang En would not do any tactical exercises in such public occasions. Apart from simple shooting training, they would let the players run around the lap.

Of course, they will not lose hope completely, and there is a pre-match press conference attended by two head coaches at the same time after training.

At the meeting, Don and Mourinho will answer questions from reporters. At that time, they can throw out any questions they have so that these two unruly and inaccessible head coaches will answer.

Unlike before coming to Chelsea to play in the league, the Forest players had a more serious expression on their faces.

They all know what kind of game it is, how important it is for their coach, the team they play for, and for themselves.

George Wood is always the person who trains the most seriously. Even if he runs the lap, he runs at the front, attracting everyone's attention.

At first, someone thought he was deliberately showing off, but later he found that he was like this no matter what the situation was, so he got used to it.

Seeing him running so vigorously, no one asked him to rest. It was the competition tonight, and everyone was very confident in Wood's physical fitness.

The reporters taking photos on the sidelines quickly got tired of this boring lap training. They didn't come here to watch a group of people running.

A few bold reporters came up and planned to interview Tang En on the spot. Actually, this was allowed, but because Tang En always gave people an inaccessible feeling, the reporters were not sure whether Tang En would accept their interview this time.

When Tang En found that there were more people next to him, he moved his eyes from the field.

All the reporters came, including two old acquaintances - Pierce Bruce and Tang Jing.

He looked at these people very unfriendly. Tang En turned his face back.

"Isn't it a fifteen-minute public time?" he muttered.

"There are five minutes left now." Tang next to him knew what he meant and replied with a laugh.

"Well..." Tang En touched his chin, "Let those kids run for another five minutes."

When the physical coach led the team to run past the coaching team, he was about to hand over the team to Tang En, but he saw Tang making a continued gesture for him. He was a little surprised, but he still did.

Someone in the team lamented that they became victims of the leader's confrontation with the media. Only George Wood's expression was as usual. He held his head high and led the way in the front.

"What did this kid grow up with..." Ribery looked at Wood's back and said with a frown. "Monster!"

Within five minutes, a reporter finally asked Tang En, all about the semi-finals in the evening. For example, how does the Forest plan to deal with Chelsea? Will the Forest still insist on defending and counterattacking? Who is on the starting list of the Forest team...this kind of thing.

Tang En did everything perfunctory about this.

"The evening game? You will know it at night. Is it necessary to ask now?"

This answer really makes the reporters helpless.

"Mr. Tang En. You will naturally know when you arrive at the competition. But our readers also need some news to keep them looking forward to the evening game..." BBC reporter came out to be the leader.

When he said this, the other reporters nodded and agreed.

Tang Enhe was unwilling to break up with these media, after all, there are still many places to use in their place in the future. He glanced at the training ground, the players were still running around the lap, and the unplanned physical training...

"Ah. That's it. Actually, there's nothing to talk about. We are "old opponents" with Chelsea. I'm familiar with Mr. Mourinho as if I'm familiar with my wife... Of course, if I have a wife, I'm talking about it.

"He said this to make fun of the reporters present. "Similarly, I believe that Mr. Mourinho is familiar with me and I will be as familiar with his wife as I am. It can be said that this is a game without any secrets.

The two sides competed with real strength, not some other messy things... I said so. Do you understand?"

The reporters nodded.

“So, look, our training is no different from usual.

Speaking of which, I hope to change with Mr. Ferguson... We played Arsenal in the semifinals last season, and we played Chelsea this season, and we kept spinning around the country, and we really didn't feel like we played in the European Champions League.

I also want to take this opportunity to travel abroad."

There was another burst of laughter. The atmosphere looked very good.

Just when the reporters felt that there was a chance today and could add more information, Tang En raised his arm and pointed to the watch on his wrist: "I'm so sorry, the public interview time is over, friends."

At this time, everyone woke up like a dream. Tang En talked nonsense here for a long time just to spend the time...

When the annoying journalists were reluctantly invited out of the court by security guards, Don En asked the team to stop training on lap and then sat together to rest, and he stood in the middle and spoke to everyone.

"It won't be enough to squeeze you out for five minutes, right?" Tang En pointed at Ribery, who was breathing heavily. "Pretending you, you'll be substitute. Frank."

Ribery's breath immediately went smoothly, and someone next to him burst into laughter.

The starting list has been announced. Ribery, who is in good condition, is on the list.

"No need to say more, you all know what the evening game is... If anyone still thinks it is just a normal league game, now you can raise your hand and we still have time to sober you. Answer me loudly, what is the evening game?"

"Champion Cup!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

"Very good! This is the knockout round. Our efforts for a season will be nothing if we lose! No one will come to sympathize with us at that time.

I believe you have fully realized the cruelty of this world. Flowers, applause, and glory belong only to the winners, and the losers have nothing! I am not doing this business to serve as a foil for others, and you are not playing football to be a stepping stone for winners! Nottingham Forest Football is a victorious football, and football that cannot be won is useless! It is useless!" Done stomped the turf under his feet hard, as if he could sank the Stamford Bridge.

"We have never lost to Chelsea. What we are feeling afraid of is Chelsea, not us. Let them see our football tonight!"

After the morale-boosting speech, Tang En asked Tang to stand up and explain specific tactics to the players. Tang, who is more professional in this kind of work, is obviously much more suitable than himself.

Tang stood up, took the tactical board, and explained the tactics of the game to each player around him, and their own tasks, including even substitutes. This kind of meticulous work is suitable for people like Tang.

In fact, explaining tactics is a thankless thing. Before Don, Chris Lack did it. After Don came, he couldn't wait to throw the job over to the newcomer Don.

Because players all have their own ideas and will hope to perform like this on the court, but tactics cannot take care of everyone's preferences, and there will inevitably be people who are dissatisfied with the tactical arrangements.

And this dissatisfaction is basically vented to the coach who came to set up tactics for them. If Done needs Anelka to defend, when Don goes to find Anelka, the French striker will definitely show his face to Tang.

If you change to a bad-tempered coach, you will probably have a high chance of arguing between the two sides. Tang's personality is slightly soft. It's most appropriate for him to do such a thing.

He only treats this as work, no matter how the players treat him, his faces cannot touch his eyes and heart.

Of course, the head coaches can also do these jobs by themselves. But Tang En's idea is that since I have found an assistant coach, it is not to support the salary. All they can do is for them. How hard can those who can do...

After Tang spent half an hour telling all the players all the specific tactics and details, the team continued to train. This time, without the media present, Tang En conducted a tactical drill.

Practice all the tactics I just arranged to see how well you master them.

After the training, the players went to the locker room to take a shower and change clothes under the guidance of the assistant coach, and Tang En went directly to the press conference. There were reporters and opponents waiting for him.

The two opponents met at the door of the press conference, and it seemed that this should be a chance encounter.

"Isn't it scary to engage in closed training, right?" Mourinho took the lead in attacking. "Is there any secret between us?"

Hearing this, Don Eun laughed out loud from his nose: "A team that has never lost to Chelsea will be afraid of Chelsea. Thank you for the joke, Mr. Mourinho, although it is a bit cold."

He did not defeat Don Eun, but was Mourinho's reverse scale. Don Eun hoped to anger his opponent. But obviously Mourinho is also a master of psychological warfare. He was unmoved and just shrugged: "Is it a joke? I will know during the game."

"You're right. You'll know when the game is going to play. What are we talking nonsense here now? Let's just go out for a drink together." Tang En pointed out and turned around and wanted to leave.

"I don't think the reporter inside will agree." Mourinho pointed at the door of the press conference.

"Well. What you said makes sense." Tang En turned 360 degrees and turned back. He made a gesture, "Please, Mr. Mourinho."

Mourinho was not polite, so he pushed open the door and walked in. Don En followed closely behind.

Because the two protagonists arrived, the press conference quickly became quiet. After the two of them sat down, everyone couldn't wait to raise their hands.

Don and Mourinho looked at each other tacitly, and such enthusiastic media bothered them a little...

At the press conference at such a sensitive moment before the game, Tang En always adhered to one principle: Tai Chi. If you can push it away, push it away. If you can get around, you will bypass it. If you can talk none, don’t go straight to the topic. Anyway, time is only a little, and it will be fine if you spend it.

He sat down and looked at the host "Dians Soldiers and Generals" leisurely.

Overall, the questions are very fairly distributed to the two head coaches. No one will feel that they are neglected, and no one will get bored by answering too many questions.

Most of the questions that Don and Mourinho need to answer are "Will a star player appear on the starting list at night?" "How is a player's recent condition?" "I heard that someone was injured.

Will it affect the night of fighting?”... This is a very normal problem.

Tang En was not surprised by this because he knew that the real core part had not come yet. According to convention, the media always asked the news required by the regular page to ensure that the newspapers will not be vacant for blockbusters tomorrow.

It was only in the end that I asked some very harsh questions, which made the head coaches unable to get out of Taiwan.

He was absent-mindedly dealing with the "regular questions" he threw at him, and at the same time he was calculating in his mind how long it would take to "get off work". It was not until Tang Jing finally stood up after raising her hand for a long time.

"Hello, I am Tang Jing, a reporter from China Sports Weekly. Three questions." Tang Jing stood up and said in English, "First.

Nottingham Forest has not lost to Chelsea since coaching with Coach Done. This is the third time the two sides have played against each other this season. Is Coach Done confidently continuing this unbeaten record?

Second, if you remember correctly, before this season, Coach Tang En said that the goal of the Forest team this season is the Champions League championship. I would like to ask Coach Tang En where your confidence came from at that time. Third.

There have been rumors that you and Mr. Mourinho are in a bad mood. Are you going to admit this?”

Suddenly everyone's eyes turned to this Chinese female reporter.

I really didn't expect Tang Jing to ask these three questions. Tang En looked at her in surprise, while Mourinho, who was beside him, turned his attention to Tang En.

"Please answer, Mr. Tang En." Seeing that Tang En did not speak, Tang Jing reminded him with a smile.

"Tsk. First, I don't think it's a good thing to lose to Chelsea. If you can stay unbeaten against this team, it's of course a good thing. I think your question is nonsense.

No head coach would say, "I think we might lose" when answering such a question. Second.

I tell you that my confidence comes from a dream. Do you believe it or not? Miss Chinese reporter? One day I woke up and felt someone whispering in my ear - you will definitely win the European Champions League this season. Do you believe it?"

A reporter couldn't help laughing.
