Chapter 431: The Qualities of Genius

Manchester United manager Ferguson sat on the bench with a gloomy expression on his face.

If he had encountered such a difficult League Cup a few years ago, he might have chosen to give up, because Manchester United does not lack a League Cup trophy.

But in recent seasons Manchester United have not tasted the taste of the championship for a long time.

In domestic competitions this season, all Manchester United can fight for is the League Cup. They have already reached the final, and in terms of league competition, there is a big gap between them and Manchester City. It is difficult to say whether they will have a chance in the final period.

Therefore, Ferguson hopes to win the League Cup championship and the Cup championship. After all, it can be regarded as an explanation for the team, the club and the fans.

However, they ran into Manchester City again.

Ferguson's mouth is tough, but he knows in his heart that it is very difficult for Manchester United to beat Manchester City when they are really fighting for strength. This has been proved by many matches in more than two seasons. Manchester City's tactical cooperation is much better than Manchester United's. , At the same time, their player ability is no worse than Manchester United.

It's hard to win in the front, so just work hard.

There is no such thing as 'impossible to win' in football. After all, both sides are 11 players, but the last time Manchester United had fought a game, it also brought a 'bad' back ditch. Ferguson knew that Manchester United could no longer afford a similar situation. Consequences, otherwise it will affect the team's competition in the Champions League.

The Champions League is what Manchester United must fight for, and Ferguson does not want to see the Champions League affected.

So before this game, Ferguson talked to the players about the game, asking them to restrain their actions, not to fight too fiercely with the opponent, and not to conflict with the opponent. He also knew that if he played against Manchester City like this, the team had little chance of winning. , but football is like this, in the case of poor strength and state, it is impossible to have the best of both worlds.

In decisive games, there is a problem with the striker.

The combination of Saha and Fletcher...what a poor performance!

Manchester United have played well in other positions, but the weakness of the striker is a big problem. He can't just expect the midfield to complete the goal.

Ferguson had a headache, he felt a little old.

Just yesterday, he quarreled with David Gill a few times. The reason was naturally related to inviting Wan Sheng to coach Manchester United. Ferguson knew that he would retire, but he thought he could work for two more years and had no plans to retire directly.

However, Ferguson also considered the 'successor' issue. The 'damn' Chinese is indeed a good choice. If the other party can agree to coach Manchester United, he doesn't mind taking the liquidated damages and choosing to leave early.

But obviously, that hateful Chinese refused again.

The Manchester United manager has become a hot potato?

The other party completely and decisively refused?

Ferguson was full of anger and quarreled with David Gill, "I said long ago that he would not agree, and I am not old enough to retire early! If you and Glazer don't trust me, now I will You can leave!"

But so what?

Now Manchester United and Manchester City are playing, Manchester City still scored goals, who can he count on now?

Ferguson couldn't help but look towards the pitch.

A handsome young man with standing hair was walking behind the field with his head lowered, sweat dripping from his temples. His face was unwilling, and he kept looking back at the cheers coming from behind.

His name is Cristiano Ronaldo.

————

In the VIP box.

Manchester United club chairman Glazer is looking through the window.

Manchester City fans in the audience cheered wildly, and Manchester City players were celebrating their goals on the field.

Beside him, Sinal clapped his hands and smiled.

The clapping reached Glazer's ears, and his face became even more ugly.

"Congratulations, scoring a goal..."

But Glazer still maintained his demeanor, squeezing a few syllables from his teeth, but he was still congratulating Sinar on Manchester City's goal.

Sinar replied, "Thank you," and the two of them didn't have any conversation.

Glazer looked at the Manchester United coaching bench, where the head coach Ferguson was sitting, with white hair and a solemn face, as if expressing his dissatisfaction with the game with his face.

At this time, Glazer was very dissatisfied with Ferguson, not because of the backwardness of the game, nor because he lost face. What he cares more about is that it seems that at Manchester United, he is an outsider. Facing the backward score, he does nothing. No.

Yes, nothing can be done.

He didn't even have the right to express his dissatisfaction.

After completing the acquisition of Manchester United in the form of debts, Glazer almost exhausted his family's assets. He invested everything in the Manchester United club, but although he held the most equity in Manchester United, he did not become the reality of Manchester United. The man in power, because the most important man at Manchester United is always the manager, Ferguson.

In the hearts of Manchester United fans, in the hearts of the media, directors and football legends who support Manchester United, Ferguson is the most important person in Manchester United.

So Glazer, as chairman, can't do anything.

He can't do anything to the team, he can't point fingers at transfers, and even now, in the Carabao Cup final, Manchester United are behind Manchester City, and he can't blame Ferguson.

Glazer suddenly envied Abramovich, or the chairman of other Premier League clubs. They all have great rights, at least they have the right to choose to contact the head coach when the performance of the head coach is not satisfactory. contract.

He has this right, but he dares not do it.

In other words, he is almost the same as having no rights, because that would have dire consequences.

Even if Manchester United lost the game, Glazer knew that he could only comfort Ferguson instead of criticizing anything, which made him feel very aggrieved, and then thought about the previous discussion with David Gill to invite Wan Sheng to coach Manchester United, He suddenly hoped that he could really find a successor to Ferguson, even if his coaching ability was not strong, the 'successor' who would make Manchester United's performance worse, as long as... as long as he could replace Ferguson and let this old guy retire early!

At that time, he will have absolute rights in the Manchester United club, and he will be able to decide everything in the team.

Who is the head coach, he has the final say!

What stars the team wants to buy and sell, he has the final say!

Only then can he truly become the master of Manchester United, and even Manchester United's business expansion will become much better, because he can decide all changes in the team and serve the business expansion.

However, Glazer knew in his heart that as long as Ferguson insisted on continuing to coach, he could not decide anything at all.

Does it really have to wait a few more years?

The game resumed shortly after Manchester City celebrated the goal.

Manchester United are not reconciled to falling behind. They continue to organize attacks to attack Manchester City's defense line, hoping to equalize the score in the first half, but Manchester City's defense is very tight, and the attack can pose a great threat to Manchester United.

The two sides fought fiercely in the remainder of the first half.

But until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, neither side scored again, and Manchester City returned to the dressing room with a one-goal lead.

Wan Sheng praised the performance of all the players, but he felt that it was not enough.

"The game is only half-time, and we only lead by one goal! In this game, our goal is the championship trophy, but if we can score a few more goals, I don't mind at all!"

Many players laughed.

Wan Sheng's face became much more serious, "I'm not kidding! I'm telling the truth! We are mortal enemies, mortal enemies of a century, and the battle between us is only your life and death! Just before the game, you all heard the news, Manchester United Said to want me to coach? It's funny, they deliberately released news to affect our state!"

"They did everything they could to influence us and beat us!"

"But, I won't let them get away with it! You too, the club, me, and you, will do everything to beat them! It's nothing to win a goal, we need to win more goals and let the whole of England, Even the whole of Europe has witnessed that English football now belongs to us! Manchester United is a thing of the past, and the most powerful team in Manchester is us!"

Wan Sheng waved his arms excitedly and said loudly, "We're going to kill them! Let Manchester United die!"

All the players in the locker room were affected and shouted, "Yes, let them die!"

"We're going to score a few more goals!"

"Let them despair!"

"Now is our time!"

"Manchester United are getting old, like their coach..."

Manchester City returned to the field with high fighting spirit.

Manchester United is different.

Although Ferguson made adjustments at half-time and encouraged the players to work hard, they have not won against Manchester City in the past two years, and now they are one goal behind. They have doubts about whether they can beat Manchester City.

This kind of mentality makes it difficult for them to have fighting spirit.

In addition, the lack of lineup is also a problem. For example, on the striker, Wayne Rooney and Tevez are not on the field. Many players do not trust Fletcher's ability, and Saha's state is also difficult to be trusted.

This distrust led to a much lower morale at Manchester United.

The low morale of Manchester United met the high morale Manchester City. The result can be imagined. Even if many Manchester United players actually performed well, they are not comparable to the overall high morale of Manchester City, so Manchester City's goal is not too difficult.

Only four minutes into the second half, Manchester City scored again.

When Ivan Crewe passed the ball into the penalty area, it was a half-height ball that reached the waist. The height of this ball was the most embarrassing. Torres couldn't shoot the first time, he stopped with a ****, Ferdinand And Vidic squeezed from both sides.

It was at this time that the football came behind Torres.

Some commentators thought that there was no chance. Just when they sighed a pity, Torres suddenly had a dexterous heel!

"No chance... oh no... Torres..."

"It's a shot!?"

Torres hits the ball with his heel towards the goal!

Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar had no idea that the football would change and roll towards the goal. He didn't see Torres shoot from the middle at all, and it was too late to make a save. He was disappointed.

The football rolls into the goal against the post.

"Torres! How clever!"

George Woodgate exclaimed, "A heel shot, let's watch the slow motion... Torres was completely pushed away by Ferdinand after stopping the ball, but he still didn't give up, his heel hit the ball!"

"Torres scored an unbelievable goal, it was a show of Spanish genius! He was alone against the defense of Ferdinand and Vidic, he scored the ball with his heel, and goalkeeper Van der Sar faced the genius of the strike. Impotent!"

"No one can be blamed for this goal, only the Spanish genius is doing so well..."

The various commentators marveled at Torres' genius.

Manchester City fans began to cheer wildly. For them, Torres' goal was beautiful, but the goal was even more meaningful - Manchester City has led Manchester United by two goals, and the League Cup trophy is already waving to the team!

After Torres scored, he hugged his teammates excitedly.

Soon many teammates stepped forward to drown him, but Torres was still very happy. He laughed happily and waved frantically. The pitch commentator Walcott could not help but sigh when he saw Manchester City players celebrating, "This goal is simply It showed Torres' genius gene to the fullest..."

————

When Torres and his teammates celebrated, Wansheng also stood on the sidelines and waved his fists excitedly.

He was delighted with Torres' genius.

As early as March or April last year, Wansheng wanted to introduce a real talent, such as Kaka, Messi, C-Ronaldo, a real football superstar, who can often play a huge role at critical moments. It is a pity that Manchester City cannot buy the first three talents, so Wansheng can only target Torres.

Torres in the memory of the previous life was criticized by many fans because Torres always performed poorly in the competition. When the Spanish team in the 2010 World Cup was at its peak and won the World Cup, Torres did not play much role.

Wansheng still clearly remembers the game between the Netherlands and Spain. Torres played and scored a goal, but even without his goal, Spain could have won. It was just a icing on the cake.

He's got a big name, but he always doesn't do well in big tournaments.

From a rational analysis, Torres is the top star in the world. His position is forward. Forward players are often defended by the opponent. The space for movement limits his performance. Coupled with the targeted defense of the opponent, his performance is actually not good. It's understandable, because often he doesn't even have a chance to perform.

Torres must have the ability, and there must be genius.

Just like the goal just now, most players faced the defense of Ferdenand and Vidic and could only 'give' the ball to the opponent, and Torres seized the last chance.

This is not just a personal ability, but a display of genius!

Wansheng believes that with the addition of the skills of the football training master, Torres is now one of the top players in the world.

As long as he can perform well, he has the ability to decide the outcome of the game by himself.

Wansheng always wanted Torres to show this top talent, and now he sees it, so when Torres scored, Wansheng was very happy. In addition, Torres' goal also helped Manchester City lead Manchester United 2-0.

Two goals ahead, the championship is in sight!

"keep it up!"

Wan Sheng gave a thumbs up to Torres, who wanted to run back, and began to expect more goals from the team in the future.

Two balls are not the end!

One more match against Manchester United is counted as one, even if it is a championship match, let the people of Manchester know well what is 'pain'!
