Chapter 669: Stupid and Awesome

As the players from both teams stood near the center circle waiting for the second half to begin, Twain changed four players. Four players clad in Nottingham Forest's yellow away jerseys stood on the sidelines, waiting to get on the field.

Kompany replaced the older Ayala, Akinfeev substituted van der Sar, Lennon swapped out David Beckham, and George Wood replaced Sun Jihai. 

Beckham's exit made the fans unhappy with Twain and they booed him.

"They're not booing at you, David." When Beckham walked off to shake Twain's hand, Twain laughed. "The boos are for me. They are complaining that I've brought you off too early."

"I understand, boss."

"Well, dry yourself." He handed over a towel.

Wood took over the captain's armband from Beckham. He tied it, and then ran onto the field. He did not give his opinion on how they should play in the first half during halftime, but Twain knew this kid had to have bottled up a lot of energy inside.
