Chapter 418 Who Is Gloating over Others' Misfortune?

"Damn, what's this?"

Before George entered the stadium, he was surrounded by many reporters. George almost thought something big had happened. But after listening to the reporters' questions, George knew what happened.

It turned out that two rookies from the youth team went out to experience Blackburn's nightlife and were caught by reporters.

Of course, Blackburn's youth training camp is not very famous, and reporters are not interested in what ordinary youth team players do. And even if they meet face to face, those reporters can't recognize those youth team players. There are so many news waiting for them in England, how could they catch a few youth team players to talk about things.

It's a pity that the two young players who were caught this time were not ordinary youth team players.

Although Ribery was directly put into the youth team by George, he is quite famous in the youth team. Together with Yang Feng, they are invincible in the youth team competition. And Ribery will also participate in the reserve team competition, and his performance in the reserve team competition is also extremely outstanding.

Many media pay attention to the competitions at all levels in England.

Just like Owen, who was already famous in the English football world before he entered the first team. What did he rely on?

It was Owen's outstanding performance in the youth team games.

There is also Joe Cole, who was already famous in the English football world at the age of fifteen. At that time, Joe Cole's fame was even greater than some Premier League first-team players. He was also hailed as the future of England. I don't know how many coaches were moved by Joe Cole at the time.

Ferguson also invited Joe Cole at that time.

They became famous because of their performance in the youth team.

If I give another example, let's talk about Real Madrid. Real Madrid's Portillo and Soldado are both hailed as the next Raul. This is the reputation they gained from their performance in the Real Madrid youth team.

It can also be seen that European football still attaches great importance to the youth team league.

Ribery and Yang Feng are in this situation.

Neither of them entered the Blackburn first team. But with their outstanding performance in the youth team games, they are already stars in the youth league. I don't know how many reporters know these two people, they are hailed as the next Duff of Blackburn.

So the two were caught by reporters while they were hanging out in a nightclub.

"Coach Levy, don't you think Blackburn's management is a bit lax?"

George shook his head.

"Will Blackburn punish Frank and Yang?"

George smiled softly.

"A football club is not an army. Once they leave the club, it's their free time. They arrange this time by themselves. The club can give them advice, but it has no obligation to restrict them. We are not a prison and cannot restrict their freedom."

George was already very angry.

The two little guys dared to go out before their hair grew fully grown. After returning, they must be dealt with properly. But in front of the reporters, George did not show any anger at all.

"Okay. It's just a small matter. You reporters are going too, why can't my players go? Make a fuss. I don't understand why you are so interested in such a small thing. You are so boring."

George shook his head. He walked out directly without caring about the reporters behind him.

After leaving the reporters, George's face was livid.

The two little kids are really energetic. Before George entered his office, he saw Adrian Gray outside.

"George, you were besieged by reporters just now."

Before George spoke, Adrian spoke first.

"Adrian, those two guys can't be indulged. Look at the reporters outside." George couldn't say too much to Adrian. Adrian is an old man in Blackburn and has been in Blackburn for more than 20 years.

Adrian has never entered the first team.

But Adrian has been in the youth team for more than 20 years. He has a wide network of people in Blackburn.

"Also, they must be given a big punishment. Frank, how are you doing now?"

"Frank is doing well. But because the intensity of the game is average, it's hard to say if he plays in the adult team." Adrian thought for a while and said.

George frowned.

Ribery is different from Yang Feng. Ribery is already 19 years old and will be 20 years old in April next year. George can't let such a big guy abstain from sex in England. Men have physiological needs. George understands this.

But it is impossible not to punish him.

This kid went out to have fun, but he couldn't take Yang Feng with him.

Yang Feng is only sixteen years old now. His body hasn't grown up yet. If he indulges in nightlife at this time, he will be completely ruined.

"Let's do this, Adrian. Send Frank to the first team in a while. Let him train with the first team." George planned to let Ribery follow the first team and observe his condition nearby. Of course, he also watched him carefully.

Adrian nodded.

George thought this was not a big deal.

But he didn't expect the media to hold on to this matter. Especially the media from Manchester, which criticized Blackburn's management. They believed that Blackburn was too relaxed about young players, which led to this kind of thing.

George was puzzled.

It is definitely not a rare thing for young players in the English football world to go out and indulge. And every season, there will be some player scandals in the English football world.

Going to prostitutes, hitting up girlfriends, drinking and getting into fights are all normal.

As long as things like Giggs's sister-in-law and Terry's teammates didn't happen later, then visiting prostitutes, changing girlfriends, and fighting would be normal things. A few years ago, Woodgate and Bowyer's beating of Asian students would not have caused such a big fuss if it did not involve some racial discrimination.

Because that kind of thing is too common in British football. No one would take this kind of thing seriously.

When Giggs was young, he attended a carnival and was dragged out by Ferguson.

But now it has been infinitely expanded by the media.

Ribery and Yang Feng are completely famous. He is already notorious in English football even before he has played in the first team.

Damn, the Manchester media have nothing to do.

Such a small matter has been causing a lot of noise for nearly a month. Every time the reporter saw George, he would ask this question, which made George very annoyed. These English journalists have nothing to do. People can do whatever they like, no matter what your business is.

Finally, out of impatience, George finally broke out.

"You are so full that you have nothing to do. What my players do is none of your business. Just mind your own business. I will not accept any interviews about this matter in the future."

…………

Seeing George's outburst, Manchester newspapers were even more excited.

They criticized George for his bad temper. They gave George advice with good intentions, hoping that George would learn a lesson. It's a pity that George couldn't listen to the advice. Anyway, the Manchester media has been a lot more active recently.

George understood this was a ploy by the Manchester media.

As we entered late January and early February, Arsenal had clearly shown signs of decline. In five games, they only achieved two wins, two draws and one loss, and only scored eight points.

At the same time, Blackburn achieved three wins, one draw and one loss, scoring ten points.

Only Manchester United has the best results, with four wins and one draw in five games. With 13 points in five games, we have the best momentum. Now just four points behind Blackburn.

Therefore, Manchester United's only opponent in the league is Blackburn. George is a very stable coach. As long as he takes the lead, he will rarely be reversed. This is true whether it is in a game or in a league season.

Moreover, playing psychological warfare against George is redundant.

At this time, things happened between Ribery and Yang Feng. These two are currently the biggest stars in Blackburn's youth team. That's why they took the trouble to keep asking George about this little thing.

George also understood what they were thinking.

But being harassed constantly made George very angry. In the end, George didn't care about this or that, he just scolded him when he needed to.

George was furious with the Manchester press. They are not acting as reporters, they are completely rogue. Just when George was thinking about how to fight back against these rogue reporters, a big thing happened that shocked the British football world.

But it is exciting news for all clubs in the Premier League.

It can even be said that the entire Premier League club is gloating about its misfortune.

On February 15, 2003, in the fifth round of the English FA Cup, Manchester United faced Arsenal at home. Arsenal, playing away from home, eliminated Manchester United 2-0 with goals from Edu and Wiltord in the 37th and 52nd minutes respectively. After the game, Manchester United coach Ferguson was furious in the locker room and violently criticized the Manchester United players. Ferguson and Beckham had an argument over the second goal. Ferguson kicked a football boot off the ground. The boot just hit Beckham's left eyebrow bone, causing blood to flow profusely. , known as "Flying Boot Gate" in history. .

This is the "flying boot gate" in history.

In this time and space, the "Flying Boot Gate" also occurred.

However, this time the "flying boot scandal" is far more serious than in history. First, Ferguson and Beckham taunted each other. Finally, Ferguson kicked the boot off the ground and hit Beckham's left eyebrow. All the Manchester United players were frightened, and Beckham stepped forward in anger and raised his fist.

He was held back by Giggs and Scholes behind him. So Beckham's fist did not hit Ferguson directly. But because Giggs and the others pulled a little late, they still slapped Ferguson in the face. The hit wasn't hard, just a light touch.

But even so, Ferguson was furious. In all his years as a coach, no player had dared to do this.

So Ferguson and Beckham almost had a real fight in the dressing room.

Fortunately, other players reacted quickly afterwards. After their provocation, Beckham went to the infirmary.

As soon as this incident came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the British football world.

What is the relationship between Ferguson and Beckham? That is the same as father and son. Manchester United's 1992 generation swept across European football and became very famous in European football. Beckham is one of the best and the representative of English football in recent years.

Now Ferguson and Beckham are fighting.

How could this incident not shock the English football world.
