Chapter 269 Decision 2
Originally, Erickson was in a hurry.
The Football Association keeps urging him to ask for Don Jack's accurate answer. After all, it takes a lot of time and effort to apply for English citizenship. The process of completing the procedures will be very complicated, and it involves some legal matters. These need to be handled carefully. Of course, they hope that the sooner the better.
Ericsson is also contradictory.
A few days ago, when he saw such a multimedia reporter coming to interview, he was also in the mood to express his meaning, so he said such a sentence. Unexpectedly, the next night, he received a phone call from Jack Don. Looking at the phone number, the Swedes were happy!
He suppressed his excitement and said to the microphone, "Hello, Jack."
"Sir, I'm sorry to bother you now. I think I have a choice about what you said last time."
"Oh?"
"Yes, sir, I want to... I have no reason to refuse."
"Huh..."
Hearing this, Eriksson took a long breath. He felt relieved. The dark-haired boy finally agreed. In this way, he had an explanation to the FA, and he was able to start making the necessary preparations for Don Jack to enter the England team.
In a national team, it is not a small matter to add a new main player. It basically means that a team leaves the national team, and there are internal competition problems and so on. These Erikssons have to make adjustments to give Don Jack a main position in the front line.
However, the Swedes are happy.
In the English team, even Rooney feels that it is more useful than Don Jack. This brunette boy is almost a player tailored for the style of the English team. Such a player joining the team will definitely greatly improve the overall level of the England team.
After chatting casually, the two hung up the phone. Erickson couldn't wait to go to the headquarters of the Football Federation to tell the officials the good news and inform them that they can move on to the next step, which is to apply for English nationality for Don Jack through special channels.
It is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to apply for this kind of thing.
But what department is the football team always in?
It is a combination of various leaders in English football. They can stamp their feet in England. What ordinary people can't do doesn't mean that they can't do it. In order to make the England stronger, it's worthwhile to do something for it.
The next day, the relevant departments of the Football Federation have begun to operate, and officials have also begun to use their own resources to try their best to help on the issue of Don Jack's nationality.
The United Kingdom is very free and equal. Although some high-level people have some privileges, they are not big. To become British nationality, they still have to follow the open route, that is, to apply for special terms. The next day, the British nationality management department received relevant information.
Don Jack's application is not easy to pass. The main reason is that he has nothing to do with the United Kingdom. Except for playing in Liverpool, there is nothing else. Fortunately, he did not register as a Moroccan football player, which brings some benefits, that is, he is also a completely free player.
Even officials of the British nationality department should follow the normal route to help Don Jack complete the process and let them make a decision. It is still the clause of 'outstanding contributions in the corresponding field'. Obviously, Don Jack's current reputation and performance can't beat 'Jay'. With the word '', his time to join the football world is too short.
Then, it depends on Don Jack's performance.
As long as his performance is good enough to impress the English Nationality Department and some high-level people, the application for genius terms will be smooth sailing.
On this point, Erikson has told Don Jack, and Jack Don is also very excited. One is to join the England team, which is very exciting. The other is that the nationality of England is also very important. With English nationality, then you can go all the way in Europe, which is to help Li Xue apply for the European Union. Family citizenship is also very helpful. After all, when two people register Moroccan nationality, their passports are related to each other.

Next, what Liverpool will face is Crystal Palace and a Champions League group match against away captain La Coruña.
For these two games, Benitez still attaches great importance to the previous league. After all, Liverpool is still the third place in the league. There is a point gap with Chelsea and Arsenal in front of them. The league points in each game and the small club are very important, but this game against Crystal Palace is a home game, and the whole team is also There is no feeling of tension. More Liverpool fans think that this will be another suspenseless victory. They are already a little numb. More fans come to the scene just to watch Don Jack's goal.
As for the latter game, the whole Liverpool team is not important.
In Group A of the UEFA Champions League, Liverpool, who has won three games and three games, has no pressure. For them, it doesn't matter whether they win or lose. In the last game with A Coruña, they won easily. Although this game is an away game, everyone feels that there is no pressure. After all, winning or losing is no longer important.
What Benitez is thinking about is training.
First of all, Liverpool needs to deal with the promoted Crystal Palace team from the Championship.
Crystal Palace Club was founded in 1905 and entered the Football League in 1920. It won the championship in the Southern Third Division that year. In the following decades, the team finally rushed into the top league under the leadership of head coach Vinables.
However, soon after that, Vena Bulls went to coach the Royal Garden Rangers, and the team's lineup also disintegrated and fell into the lower league all the way.
1984, 28-year-old Steve. Koper took over the teaching whip and led the team back to the top five years later. In 1990, he reached the FA Cup final and staged a thrilling goal battle with Manchester United. In 1993, the team was unfortunately relegated to Division One. After 10 years of wandering and struggle, Crystal Palace finally returned to the Premier League under the leadership of head coach Dawey.
The history of such a team is very common in England. There is nothing particularly surprising. The ups and downs of small clubs are generally like this. When they are brilliant, they can compete with big clubs like Manchester United, and when they are down, they can be relegated to the First Division, Second Division and even the Third Division.
In the new season of the Premier League, Crystal Palace did not perform very well. After twelve rounds, they only achieved a record of three wins, two draws and 11 points. Such a record made them directly ranked second to last in the league, and only the worse West Bromwich Albion, than The Crystal Palace points are even lower.
However, most of the points of Crystal Palace have been accumulated recently. In fact, in the previous seven rounds of the league, they only played a poor result of one draw and six losses. As the league progresses, their results are getting better and better. It seems that this promoted horse is constantly adapting to the Premier League.
Two rounds ago, they also drew with Arsenal, which is something to be proud of.
However, Liverpool players have no pressure at all, mainly because the team is playing at home, and the team is very confident now. Although Arsenal is the most popular team in the Premier League, they will meet Manchester United in this round. It is not known who will win or lose. Besides, the team is also confident that it will not lose to Arsenal. As for the unbeaten record, it really doesn't matter to professional players.
Strength and luck, that's all!
The home game makes everyone feel free of pressure. The team's daily training is also spent in laughter, but this kind of laughter also has a sense of closeness. Everyone is training hard to better improve the team's tactical system. When every player can adapt to the team's tactics, the team can exert stronger power. .
Even if you think about yourself, players who don't adapt to Benitez' tactics can only be substitutes: of course, except for the team's brunette boy... In this regard, other players can only sigh, mainly because Don Jack is too domineering on the court. Even if he is not used to tactics, he can play well.
"This is the star player." Many substitutes sighed so much.
They are also optimistic, such as Pangler. At the beginning of the season, he was still cheered and wanted to compete for the main position. But after such a long time, he could not see the hope of winning the main position in Liverpool, but saw the strength of the team.
So, this guy wanted to stay for a year to take over Cise's position.
Cise's age is about to pass the strongest period. Pengler's replacement is indeed the best choice, and Baroche is a comprehensive substitute in Liverpool. Although he has played more times than Pangler, everyone knows the strength of the Czechs and can't adapt to it at all in Liverpool, especially in Bei. After Nitez came, there was no place for him.
That is, rich game experience gives Baroche more opportunities to play, and Pangler is the future of Liverpool.
As for Jack Don? He is already a big star...
Liverpool players train hard, while the coaching staff has to work hard to analyze their opponents. Even in games that are not very good at losing, they also need to study carefully to make the chances of problems in the game less. They need to analyze the possible variables and analyze how to deal with these variables. This is their job.
