Standing in front of the window of the head coach's office at Newcastle's Longton training base, looking at a freight train to the east, rumbling slowly past, the front of the car was still puffing and puffing with white smoke, Alan Pardew's eyes were filled with tears Deep anticipation.
In his eyes, Newcastle is like a train that is slowly heading towards the bright future.
In the past season, he successfully led Newcastle to fifth place in the league, shocking the entire English football world, and many people even have high expectations for his future.
Over the past many years, the head coaching positions of top-ranked Premier League teams have been almost monopolized by foreigners, except for Ferguson.
For example, Wenger in France, Benitez in Spain, Mourinho and Villas-Boas in Portugal, or Ancelotti and Mancini in Italy, etc.
Even Ferguson and Moyes are Scots The only one who can be called a local coach and has outstanding results in leading the team is Tottenham Hotspur coach Redknapp, but he has been dismissed from Tottenham.
Compared with veteran coach Redknapp, Alan Pardu is younger and has more advantages Newcastle is the most popular team among local fans in England.
Before being relegated, it was a powerful team that kept pace with Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and other teams.
After encountering the nightmare of relegation, the Magpies returned to the Premier League and were ambitious to revive.
The glory and glory of the past.
Last season, Alan Pardew gave all Magpies fans a glimmer of hope.
Similarly, Alan Pardu himself is full of confidence and expectations for the future.
He even wishes that the Premier League would come soon.
In the new season, the Magpies’ goal is to stabilize the top five in the league and hit the top four.
As long as they return to the European competition, Newcastle will have a higher stage and Alan Pardew will have a better platform.
Thinking of this, this local young coach who has high hopes from countless English fans smiled confidently.
"This time, in order to support the team's bid for Champions League qualification, even the stingy chairman Ashley promised to give us a transfer budget of 10 million pounds.
We have to think carefully about how to spend this money."
Alan Padu suddenly turned around and laughed at the assistants behind him.
That momentum is indeed very handsome.
Especially his confidence, coupled with his good-looking handsome appearance, he really has a somewhat convincing temperament.
"Our most important signing now is the midfielder, and we must complete the transfer as soon as possible."
The assistants all nodded at the head coach's instructions and recorded them carefully.
As for the midfield signings, the coaching staff has already held a meeting to discuss them, and everyone knows who the target is.
Today's Newcastle can be said to be strong.
The goalkeeper is Dutch national goalkeeper Tim Krul, the defense also includes powerful stars such as Coloccini, David Thornton, and Stephen Taylor, and the midfielder includes Moussa Sissoko, Cabaye, Ben Arfa, and Gutierre.
Si and other famous generals.
The forward line is also dominated by players including Papiss Cisse, Demba Ba, Obertan and other players.
Even players such as former Manchester United player Alan Smith and goalkeeper Foster were unable to gain a foothold in the Magpies and were forced to transfer.
It can be seen that Alan Pardu's team is indeed very strong.
In terms of reputation, Newcastle may not have many big-name stars, but in terms of strength, the Magpies definitely have a chance to compete with the Premier League heroes.
Chief assistant coach John Carver nodded and said: "The Premier League will start in a while, and late August is the fourth round of qualifiers for the Europa League.
We must adjust the team at that time."
Alan Pardew couldn't help but nod, "You're right, the Premier League schedule is out.
The first game against Tottenham Hotspur is very crucial.
If we play well, we will play Chelsea away in the second round, and we will have less pressure."
We won the first game, and the second round was away from home again, and it was Chelsea's, so it didn't matter if we lost.
"The schedule is very favorable to us.
We play Manchester United in the seventh round at home.
Although we play Liverpool in the tenth round away from home, Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion before were not strong.
After that, West Ham United and West Bromwich Albion were not strong.
Swansea is home."
On the table in the coaching staff's office, there is a carefully crafted schedule.
As long as everyone glances at the schedule, they can immediately see the matchups above.
Alan Pardu has been able to stay in the Premier League for many years, but he is not a vegetarian after all.

As soon as the schedule came out, he could immediately see that Newcastle's schedule was quite favorable.
Especially in the thirteenth round of the league, the crucial decisive battle that he attaches most importance to is the away challenge to Southampton.
That was his return to St.
Mary's Stadium after a two-year absence.
This time, he will lead the powerful Newcastle to defeat the St.
Mary's Stadium and avenge their previous disgrace.
"In the 13th round of the league, we play Southampton away.
I will win this game at all costs, and I will also show our momentum and win Stoke City, Wigan and Fuller in one go. " When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.
When that time comes, Newcastle will be ranked at least in the top five, and even if it performs better against strong teams, it is possible to be in the top four.
John Carver is well aware of the feud between Alan Pardew and Southampton, and also knows what the head coach is thinking.
How could Alan Pardew miss this rare opportunity to avenge his shame face to face?
"Show me Southampton's fixture list" said John Caffle.
Soon, an assistant called up Southampton's schedule.
As a result, when the schedule came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Good boy, Southampton doesn't have a grudge against the FA, does it?"
"Isn't it?"
"This is too outrageous."
"Starting from the first round, Manchester City, Wigan Athletic, Manchester United, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Everton, Fulham, West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Swansea"
"This is a race to be taught how to be a human being every minute."
“Who says it’s not true, especially in the first four rounds, we met Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal one after another.
This schedule is also quite devilish.”
"But there is also a benefit.
They have a Christmas schedule and there is no strong team except Arsenal."
"Yes, if you look at the back, starting from the away game against Manchester United in the twenty-fourth round, the remaining fourteen rounds of the schedule are quite good.
We only met three teams, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea, but they all It’s the home court” Alan Pardew nodded and said: "That's the truth, but you have to know that if the league doesn't start well, no matter how good the schedule is, it may not be useful.
People will be scattered, which is more terrifying than anything else."
As a coach with many years of experience in the Premier League, Alan Pardew knows better than anyone how important the team's morale is in the league's long-term competition system.
"But that's okay.
By the time they meet us, I'm afraid they will be exhausted."
Alan Pardew laughed, as if he saw an exhausted Southampton team.
It’s no wonder that by the 13th round, before encountering Newcastle, apart from Aston Villa and Wigan Athletic, Southampton was almost among the top ten teams in the Premier League, including giants like Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal.
There are also strong teams like Tottenham Hotspur and Everton.
In the past two years, even teams such as West Ham United, Swansea, and Fulham have been difficult to play in the Premier League.
Thinking of this, Alan Padu couldn't help but reveal a cold smile.
The smile was filled with a chilling, teeth-gnashing hatred.
"Yang Huan, Yang Huan, this time I will make you pay the most painful price."
"Hey, I said, David, are you kidding me?"
While Alan Pardew was brewing hatred at the Changton training base and preparing for revenge, Yang Huan appeared in the Royal Box at Wembley Stadium in London, staring at the poor old English man in front of him with a dissatisfied look on his face.
That posture was like throwing FA chairman David Bernstein directly from the stands.
David Bernstein's face was covered in cold sweat, and his back was soaked.
The whole world knows that whoever offends this young master Huan will be unlucky.
"Master Huan, how dare I do that?"
"Don't you dare to be so stupid, go check the schedule yourself and look inside.
What kind of schedule did you arrange for Southampton?
We met three giants in the first four rounds.

Is it possible that I was wronged?
You guys" Yang Huan got a little angry when he heard that this old boy still dared to cry out.
Prince William, who was sitting aside, was not very happy after hearing this.
"David, if you do this, you are a bit unkind.
After all, we are all friends."
David Bernstein was so depressed that he dared to slap his flattery on the horse's leg.
"Master Huan, Your Highness, I have a hard time."
"Difficulties" Yang Huan was stunned, "Okay, tell me, what are your difficulties?"
As he spoke, he gestured to roll up his cuffs.
Apparently, if what he said didn't suit him, he was going to take action directly.
Prince William also looked concerned.
In their view, the following Community Shield cup is insignificant.
Anyway, it is a preliminary game of the Premier League, a warm-up match, of little importance.
Moreover, didn’t someone say that whoever wins the Community Shield will lose the Premier League title?
"As we all know, the biggest challenge in the Premier League is the schedule from Christmas to January.
Many newly promoted teams or first-time coaches have to deal with the Christmas schedule."
"Yeah, so what?"
Yang Huan pouted.
This one makes sense.
Even though Southampton has played in the English League for two seasons, the English Championship is not at the same level as the Premier League.
Even the Christmas schedule is different.
"Master Huan, go and take a look.
Apart from Arsenal, are there any other strong teams in Southampton's Christmas fixtures?"
Yang Huan thought for a while, then took out his phone and looked at it.
It was really not there.
Also, Arsenal is really not a strong team these days.
At least he is the weakest among the top players in the Premier League.
If Yang Huan is asked to choose his opponent from among the top players, he will definitely choose Arsenal.
There is no other reason.
Persimmons must be soft.
Wenger, don't complain, who made you so unhappy?
"January is very critical for the team that has just gone through the Christmas Devil schedule.
Throughout January, Southampton did not face Manchester United until the end of the month.
That was the twenty-fourth round of the league, followed by more than a dozen league rounds. , Southampton’s home court is when it encounters a strong team, or when it encounters a confident team.”
Yang Huan heard what he said and combined it with the schedule, it really made sense.
"My dear Master Huan, think about it, if you don't want to meet a strong team in the Christmas schedule, then you must arrange the encounter with a strong team in other games.
Also, it is not easy to meet a strong team in the latter part of the season.
During that time, it is difficult to meet a strong team.
A critical moment for achievement.”
At this point, David Bernstein felt like crying.
"It's been moved around, but there's really no way to move it, so we can only move it to the beginning of the season."
When Prince William heard this, he felt that it made sense.
It is not easy for others.
The rules of the competition are like this.
They can only try their best to help you deal with it within the rules.

You can’t just arrange for Southampton not to play against a strong team, right?
Yang Huan was not the kind of ignorant person.
When he heard what he said, he immediately understood.
It is indeed acceptable to arrange the strong dialogue at the beginning of the season.
On the other hand, if it were all arranged in the later stage, I might be scolded.
Besides, the Premier League is not La Liga.
There are only two or three teams in La Liga that are capable of winning the championship.
We only watch two or three games throughout the year.
In other games, everyone is fine.
But the competition in the Premier League is too fierce.
There are so many strong teams that you have to run into every time you come and go.
Thinking of this, Yang Huan also nodded.
"Okay, okay, David, don't act like a fucking bitch, I misunderstood you, I owe you a favor."
"Really" David Bernstein was finally vindicated.
"nonsense" The old man hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke timidly.
"Then can you please Master Huan, do me a favor?"
