499 Demetrio’s Farewell Game

No matter how Capello decided to punish Beckham, the news from Nottingham Forest Football Club about Beckham was over. Beckham was still a Real Madrid player and Forest had no right to order another club on how to treat Beckham.

Twain decided not to talk any more about Beckham under any circumstance. He did not want everyone to focus too much on a player who had not even joined yet; it was disrespectful to the current players. He did not want Beckham to establish any enemies in the locker room before he even arrived.

Therefore, he tried to play down the impact of Beckham joining next season within the team to allow the players to focus all their attention on the current competition.
