Chapter 67

Ferguson sprayed Francis once in the post-match press conference because of the bus.

At first glance, this incident seems to be a personal grievance between two people, but it is also a matter between the two clubs in a big way.

As a young man with no experience in the world, Beckham thinks it depends on who is more quarrelsome, who has more "husbands and dogs" and who can give a few assists.

This thing is probably still an old man.

However, after the fight between the two began, things suddenly deviated from his expectations.

The next day, the media stated the facts from an objective point of view, but after careful consideration, something was wrong.

Every article reads like Ferguson is on the side of justice, and Francis slapped a bus like he's done something morally bankrupt.

Each newspaper office has strong pens under their hands, and these experts who play with words have set up the facial makeup of both parties without any trace.

In the Premier League highlights that followed in the evening, the match between Manchester United and Sheffield Wednesday was focused.

The host only commented and did not comment. The program team interviewed fans of different classes and asked everyone to comment on their thoughts after watching the game.

The scene switched to the Hillsborough Stadium, where several fans with the Manchester United logo printed on their scarves expressed their dissatisfaction among the many home team fans.

A burly man who was nearly two meters aggressively walked in front of the camera and roared: "This game is shit, they kick like shit."

The first Manchester United fan relied on his physical strength and completely ignored the Sheffield Wednesday fans around him, yelling and spraying "dung" all over his mouth.This buddy excels in his aura, but his vocabulary is touching, and he repeats those few words with "shit" over and over again.

A fan with eyes and some gentleness around him gradually became grim under his instigation. Without warning, he rushed forward and put his face on the camera, making his face all over the screen: "Sheffield Wednesday doesn't deserve to play against us. They won't be able to win the Premier League championship in the next 100 years!"

Fuck, this buddy either doesn't speak, and only one sentence is a century-old curse, very cruel!

Although this sentence is uncivilized, it is particularly flammable.As a Manchester United fan, Beckham finds it particularly enjoyable to be around the TV.

Hearing the shout of the glasses, the surrounding Manchester United fans roared their team's name in unison.

Then the camera pointed at a Sheffield Wednesday fan in a blue uniform: "What do you think of your team's tactics?"

The fan pondered for a moment, with a long-winded expression: "Our record before this game was 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. The results are not ideal. Considering the opponent's performance in the game against Bolton, we think it is an acceptable result to get 1 point at home."

Then I interviewed two Sheffield Wednesday fans, both of whom had the same argument.

When it came to the fourth fan, the situation was not right, which can be seen from his gloomy face.

The unhappy fan tapped the screen with his index finger as he spoke: "I've been saving all these years to buy season tickets. I came here to watch my team desperately fight their opponents. They benefit from us and should play like a man."

The screen immediately switched to another fan of the home team. He was not too excited, but his words were not pleasant: "In terms of strength, there are about 10 clubs in the Premier League that are better than us. According to Francis' tactics, we have to watch 10 games like this in a season.

According to the strength comparison of the home and away games, we may have to play 12-15 games in the away game with only defense and no offense. Can such a team stay in the Premier League? "

The answer from the last home team fan was even harsher: "If the team continues to play like this, it will be no different from Sheffield United (the rivals in the same city)."

Then the media started a random sampling survey: "If you knew that there was a team in the Premier League game, would you still pay to watch it?"

A shabby-looking fan sneered: "I wouldn't spend money on this kind of game."

Another passer-by in a neat suit who looked like a professional elite shook his head: "No, absolutely not, it's a waste of time."

The interview video ended, and then switched to the highlights of the next game.

Beckham smashed his mouth, feeling that Francis was in trouble.

Although the host did not express any opinions from the beginning to the end, the direction of the media is already very clear. This kind of game is not recognized by the public. When other mid-stream and lower-level teams encounter such a situation, they have to weigh themselves before deploying tactics. Whether they can withstand the ridicule of the media.

The topic of this game is far from over. In the following days, people from Tottenham and Chelsea continued to be interviewed by the media. They unanimously accused Francis of short-sighted behavior, saying that he was smashing his own job.

As a deadly rival in the same city, a certain star of Sheffield United also got in the way. He believed that Sheffield Wednesday was a disgrace to the city and did not deserve to stay in the high-level league.

The despondent Francis was also interviewed. He was in a hurry to defend himself: "The tactical arrangement of this game is just an example. We have lost a few games in a row, and the overall state is not good. We urgently need to curb the losing streak. It happened that this game met Manchester United, which is really difficult for the team.

I apologize again to the fans who supported us. This game is just a special moment in the season. We will definitely show the club's aggressiveness in the next games. I hope everyone can continue to support the club. "

Even if he confessed in time, he was still chased and beaten by the media for several days in a row.

In this way, I thought it was the rhythm of the two using the media to fight each other.

Unexpectedly, Ferguson only accepted one interview from the beginning to the end, and arranged for Francis to be clear, and the other party had to confess in front of the media.

The "Sun", which has never played its cards according to the routine, simply used a cartoon to summarize this one-sided war of words.

In the comics, there are only Ferguson and Francis. The two stand not far away and piss on each other. As a result, a gust of wind blows, Ferguson urinates on each other's face, and Francis urinates on himself against the wind.

The title of the comic is "The Wind is Coming", implying that under the general trend of commercialization of the Premier League, Francis's attempt to go against the wind can only pee on his face.

In the past two days, everyone can see that Ferguson is very happy, always watching everyone's training with a smile, even if the players made some mistakes in training, he just laughed and cursed a few words, and turned the matter over.

The Manchester United players were surprised to find that the days when someone scolded them for themselves was still good, and the training pressure was much less.

Especially Gary Neville, a bastard, as long as there is news about Francis in the newspaper, he will repeat it to everyone during the break like a repeater.

The time has come to the end of September. Although Manchester United has lost three consecutive games and even beat York City in the League Cup, Ferguson is in a particularly good mood.

It's certainly something to be proud of by blasting Francis in front of the media, but the old man is obviously not that kind of pompous person.

After he coached the Manchester United team, he had to fight [-] times in front of the media instead of [-] times. A stinky brother like Francis, who slapped the opponent in one round, is not a problem at all.

The most important reason why he is in such a good mood is that Cantona's suspension period will end at the end of the month, and he has started training by himself in the past two days.

He participated in pre-season training, but was chased by the English media because of a training match, so he simply returned to France.

The Frenchman is so self-willed, it may be difficult for him to switch to other Premier League clubs. After all, this buddy has had a bad reputation since he came to England.

The English professional league is known for its simplicity and roughness. Many French players dare not come to the Premier League because they are afraid of the life-threatening tackles of the Premier League defenders.

Cantona didn't believe in evil, so he just wanted to try it out, but he didn't get used to it either.

Unlike other French players crying and wanting to go home, this guy is not stingy, he steps on whoever shovels him.

After a period of practice, every time he avoids a defender's tackle, he can step on the opponent, a red card, and a suspension are simply commonplace. In the end, he turned into a villain in the Premier League, making the defender dare not shovel him without blood.

But in Ferguson's eyes, his talent is clearly far better than his notoriety.

The king came back, and the old man had peace of mind.
