Although he is an opponent, he admires Tony a lot. Donn's. He didn't want to be a traverser, and there was no system plug-in to help.

He relied on his keen eye and excellent execution ability to lead Nottingham Forest back to glory.

And Chang Sheng actually agreed with what Don said in an interview.

He also doesn't like to fight and imitate himself, Lazio football is suitable for Lazio, not necessarily for all teams.

Everyone imitates Lazio, but it makes the football world monotonous, the so-called solitary branch is not spring, a hundred flowers can bloom.

Football is becoming more and more polarised.

He doesn't like that kind of football either.

Of course, he didn't think this way because the teams that imitated him beat Lazio and won the championship - in fact, these poor imitators are not afraid to win, and Lazio won them easily.

Chang Sheng simply doesn't like this kind of behavior.

He likes to play football in a variety of styles.

For example, he and Mourinho, although he has never expressed his liking for Mourinho, but Mourinho insists on his football philosophy and resists himself, which is also an opponent worthy of respect.

His football bears a distinctly personal imprint.

This is something that many coaches don't have now, they just imitate, this is popular today, they will learn this, tomorrow it will be popular, and they will leave what they have learned before and change to that.

And Tony. Donn's football clearly bears his own imprint as well.

In addition to the uselessness of defending counter-attacks and possession, it is tenacious and tough.

It's like Tony. Don is the same person.

If you want to study your opponent, you can't just study what his tactics are, it's better to know what kind of person their opponent is.

This is even more important than tactics.

Because if you know who your opponent is, then you can infer his habits from his personality.

You can get to the essence of the problem directly.

A head coach who makes on-the-spot instructions and pre-match arrangements. How much it has to do with their personalities.

For example, a cautious manager will never choose to play against an opponent who is good at attacking in a game.

And those with an arrogant personality are prone to some mistakes.

Then Tony. What kind of person is Donn?

He is a contradiction.

This is the conclusion that has always been victorious.

He looks arrogant, but in reality he is very cautious and at the same time he has a tough side.

His tough side has been reflected in his team, and Nottingham Forest, as a defence-oriented team, is very tenacious defensively, and this tenacity has effectively helped Nottingham Forest defend.

At the same time, his caution is reflected in why he chooses to defend and counterattack.

As for arrogance......

Chang Sheng thinks that this may just be a shell he has put on himself.

Tony. In English football, Donn is known as the "New Maniac" and "Clough II".

Because Brian. Clough, the legendary coach of Nottingham Forest, led Nottingham Forest to Champions League titles for two consecutive seasons. Completed the great quadruple jump of "the first year in the English Second Division, the second year in the English First Division, the third year the Champions League, and the fourth year to defend the Champions League".

The head coach is known for his rebellious personality.

It can be said that he is the grandmaster of the coach "madman".

And Tony. Don was able to get such a nickname, and naturally he could also see his style of acting.

Tony. Donn does have a lot of head-shaking moves in English football.

He often spews people with a big mouth. Stir up trouble everywhere, offend peers, offend journalists, and even offend the FA.

However, he knows how to control the measure, and every time he offends, he does not offend deeply.

And once you make a mistake, you will admit it with a good attitude.

Especially against the FA because of his temper. In his seven-year coaching career, he was banned 11 times, an average of more than once a year.

Every time he was banned, his confession was sincere.

But as soon as the ban expired, he forgot about it. Next time, he will continue to be sent to the stands for provoking the referee on the sidelines. Then confess his guilt......

And so on and so forth.

Winning analysis to analyze the go, think Tony. Don should be a utilitarian, like himself.

I chose Tiki-Taka because this kind of football can help him win better.

Then Tony. Donn opted for a defensive counter-attack. It's just because he thinks it's easier to win.

The facts also proved him right.

When everyone is holding high the banner of offensive football, go against the current. Choosing to defend and counterattack can really be a good way to deal with teams that attack football.

Someone who is somewhat similar to himself......

Chang Sheng thought to himself, this is difficult to deal with.

Because he himself is the most difficult person in the world to defeat!

It's narcissistic......

※※※

Take Tony. Don's personality and temper, it is naturally abnormal not to stir up something before the game.

So when Nottingham Forest played Lazio away, Tony Forest. Donn fired at Lazio.

"Lazio is the culprit behind how boring football is right now, football is supposed to be colourful, but football is only black and white nowadays...... It's boring! And it's too boring to always let a team win the championship. When there is no competition in the world of football, what is the need for the sport to exist? Fortunately, in the past two years, Lazio has finally been pulled down from the altar, and we have seen Lazio who has achieved nothing for two seasons, and I think this kind of Lazio is normal......"

Don tried to provoke Chang Sheng with this.

If you are easily fooled, you will not be able to win often.

Because Chang Sheng also played this set before, in order to provoke his opponent, he was willing to say anything, and there was really no taboo.

So it's also particularly annoying.

In order to win, Chang Sheng naturally doesn't care about these things.

Tony now. Donn's approach made him feel as if he had seen his younger self.

After Donn said this, the media all over Europe were frantically reporting and reprinting it, and they wanted to see how Chang Sheng responded.

This is a naked slap in the face!

Can you endure it with a winning temper?

Of course, judging from the style of Chang Sheng in the past few years, it is really hard to say. Maybe you'll really put up with it?

At the pre-match press conference, Chang Sheng smiled after listening to the reporters' relays: "Tony. Mr. Donn was a little illogical. Lazio didn't go out and spread this tactic all over the world, and other teams wanted to learn from us, so could we stop it? Or do I say, 'Please be careful when other teams learn Lazio's tactics, so as not to put this great tactic to shame'? It's their business to learn, and we in Lazio can't do it. And there's one thing I strongly disagree with Tony. Mr. Donn. Lazio who does not win the championship is not a normal Lazio. Don didn't believe it. I welcome him to give it a try! ”

Chang Sheng rarely responded to a war of words before, but now he is also a famous handsome, and no one attacks him, he has to fight back, so it would be too much for the other party to be faced. The other party can hype himself up with this matter and enhance his popularity.

This kind of thing is not good for Chang Sheng at all, so he doesn't do it.

But to Tony. Donn, the exception to the ever-winning one.

His riback was also quickly reported by major European media.

This is the first round of the battle between the two sides, and so far, it seems that Chang has a slight advantage.

Because what he said is very reasonable, others should learn from Lazio. Lazio really couldn't stop it.

So Tony. It doesn't make sense for Donn to use this to attack Lazio.

※※※

After the first round of the war of words, the official match will begin.

Lazio host Nottingham Forest at their home stadium.

The match also attracted the attention of all over Europe – in fact, the Group of Death. As long as Lazio plays, it can basically attract the attention of the whole of Europe.

No matter how many people disdain Lazio, this ironclad fact speaks volumes about Lazio's place in European football.

The European media called this match a showdown between the former European hegemon and the strongest dark horse.

The former European hegemon of course refers to Lazio. The reason for the past is that Lazio have not won the Champions League for three seasons.

Nottingham Forest actually won two Champions League titles in a row a while ago. However, they are not yet European hegemons, and they have too long a history. Nowadays many people forget.

If it weren't for Nottingham Forest's return to the Champions League, it is estimated that many fans would not know that this little-known team is also a team that has won two Champions League titles......

Today's Wanda Stadium is full.

The fans came to see the excitement and hoped that Lazio would win the game.

And the professional reporters in the media gallery came to see the doorway.

They want to see how the team that once claimed to be the strongest attacking force in Europe will perform against the team that is now the strongest defensive team in Europe.

The battle between the sharpest spear and the strongest shield wins.

Whichever side wins, this game could bring some sort of paradigm change to European football.

Nottingham Forest have certainly received a lot of criticism and disdain during their rise to prominence, but their achievements are in the eyes of everyone.

The defensive counterattack was played to the extreme, and there were performances and results that were not inferior to offensive football, which is a result that everyone can see.

So if Nottingham Forest can beat Lazio away from home with their counter-attacking defence, will there be more counter-attacking teams in European football?

At that point, it will no longer be the world of attacking football.

And if Lazio win, you can clearly see how Nottingham Forest have failed, and thus prove that their path is not going to work.

In that way, European football will continue to be the world of attacking football.

That's the far-reaching meaning of this seemingly ordinary match.
