Chapter 126: What Is It?

When the camera lens was aimed at Rodney and the others, the cloth strips prepared by Kintag appeared on the TV screen.

"Old footballer!"

Manchester United fans all over the world saw this shot.

At this time, Morris said excitedly: "The veterans of Manchester United use this banner to tell everyone who doesn't trust them that the 'old players' they call can still score key goals and can still dominate the outcome of the game!"

Jin Taige couldn't close his mouth with a smile on the sidelines. He happily said to Scholes: "Look, my idea is still good."

Scholes laughed in his heart: sometimes the captain is mature and stable, and sometimes he acts like a naughty child. The idea of ​​mocking those reporters who look down on Manchester United veterans in this way is really naive...

And Manchester United's way of celebrating made Boas on the coach's bench of the home team extremely angry. He kicked the turf hard and almost sprained his feet. Watching Boas limping back to his seat, Adebayor on the bench couldn't be happier.

In the next game, neither side scored any more goals, and the first half ended with Manchester United leading 1-0.

During the intermission, Boas scolded the starters in the locker room of the home team.

"Look at the players of Manchester United! Veterans in their 30s can perform so well! And look at you? You are all young and strong, it is the best period of your career, but you are playing like shit Same! Now I have to make some adjustments."

Boas looked at the substitutes.

"Sigurdsson, you came on for Shadley in the second half."

Sigurdsson nodded: "Okay, coach."

"Don't be weak like Shadley in the first half!" Boas was very dissatisfied with Shadley.

Shadley didn't speak either. He really didn't perform well in the first half, and he had nothing to say when he was replaced.

"Townsend, you replace Lennon. When attacking in the second half, you should also pay attention to proper defense. If you are passed by the opponent's full-back, it would be really shameful!"

Boas’s words point to something, because Manchester United’s goal in the first half, when it comes down to the source, started when Evra passed Lennon, so Boas’s words really criticized Lennon’s contribution to defense for too little .

Lennon felt a little dissatisfied. He was not happy with the head coach making fun of himself in front of the team. But no matter what, that goal did have a lot to do with me. So Lennon hung his head and said nothing.

For the third substitution, Boas thought for a long time, and finally he made up his mind: "Adebayor, you will replace Soldado in the second half!"

When Boas said this, everyone was stunned, even Adebayor himself was surprised.

Since taking over the team last season, Boas has abandoned Adebayor. Usually, Boas will only let Adebayor appear on extremely special and unimportant occasions. This season, the relationship between the two has deteriorated to the extreme. At the beginning of the season, Boas even sent Adebayor to the reserve team!

Although the outside world is not very clear about the reasons for the conflict between the two, Adebayor understands in his heart that the reason why he offended Boas was entirely because in 2012, Boas had just coached the team and in a training session On the day, Adebayor had some personal views on Boas' tactical philosophy, and he raised them in public. But Boas, who had just become the coach of Tottenham, thought that Adebayor was challenging his authority. Since then, Boas has kept Adebayor in the sidelines until now.

But now things have changed. Tottenham trailed by one point in the first half, and now urgently need a hero to save Tottenham. Unexpectedly, Boas finally chose Adebayor.

Don't look at Boas and Adebayor's rivalry, but he is very clear in his heart: Adebayor is very strong,

Definitely one of the top ten strikers in the Premier League right now.

So at this critical moment, Boas still chose to let Adebayor play.

But what he didn't expect was that Adebayor didn't pay attention to what Boas said.

Boas said loudly again: "Adebayor, you replaced Soldado in the second half!"

At this time, Adebayor slowly raised his head, and he looked at Boas with disdain: "Mr. Coach, I just felt uncomfortable in my ankle and couldn't play, so you should send someone else. "

"what!"

Hearing Adebayor's words, Boas was furious: "How dare you disobey my order!"

Adebayor glanced sideways at Boas, and snorted: "What's wrong with disobeying your orders? What are you?"

Boas broke out completely. He pointed to Adebayor in front of him: "From tomorrow on, you will report to the reserve team! No, get out now, I don't want to see you again!"

Adebayor stood up directly, took his small bag, wore headphones, opened the door of the locker room with a leisurely look, then walked along the player tunnel, and left the White Hart Lane without looking back.

The locker room suddenly fell silent, no one spoke, and it was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.

Boas gasped for a long time, and then calmed down a little.

After a long time, Soldado broke the silence and asked cautiously, "Coach, will I play in the second half?"

Boas pointed to Defoe who was sitting next to him in displeasure: "Defoe, you will replace Soldado in the second half!"

Defoe nodded and just said one word: "Okay."

The 15-minute intermission arrived soon, and the time that should have boosted morale or arranged tactics was exhausted in the quarrel between Boas and Adebayor.

The Tottenham players walked out of the locker room, looking listless, and walked out along the aisle. If someone who doesn't understand the situation sees their depressed appearance, they think that something happened to them during the intermission...

In such a low mood, Tottenham began their second half of the game.

The two teams had just played for five minutes, and Jin Taige noticed something was wrong: "Paul, I want to confirm, did we really only lead 1-0 in the first half?"

Scholes smiled: "Captain, why did you have a 15-minute intermission and you don't even remember the current score?"

Kintag shook his head: "I just found that something is wrong with Tottenham. Although they are only one goal behind, why do they seem to have no fighting spirit at all? Don't they have any plans to tie the score?"

Phelan also saw the problem, and he said firmly: "If Tottenham follow this style of play, let alone an equalizer, even if they want to keep the 0-1 result, it will be impossible!"
