Chapter 122 The final battle of the top six
"In the next game, Manchester United will go to London to challenge the Premier League upstart Tottenham. I believe Villas-Boas' team will hit this old Manchester United hard!"

On the Carrington training ground, Kintag held a newspaper in his hand and recited Wolff's article in The Sun to his players.

Scholes laughed secretly from the side: Since Kintag coached the team, reading newspapers has become a compulsory course in daily training.Kintag can always find sarcasm, sarcasm, and the most critical articles about Manchester United from many newspapers, and read them slowly to the players, and Kintag chooses the most is the "Sun".

Kintag once said to Scholes in private: "If one day the "Sun" Wolff resigns, then I really don't know what to do with this 'newspaper reading training'."

This is the case again today. After reading Wolfe's article, Kintag rolled the newspaper into a paper tube, and then pointed to the players in front of him with the paper tube: "Wolf said 'Old Manchester United', and I It was supposed to be mocking Ryan, Carrick, Evra, Vidic and possibly Robin."

As Kim Taige said, he pointed to the few people in front of him. They were all the main force of Manchester United, and they were all over 30 years old.

Jin Taige's words made the veterans in front of him very angry.They are not angry with their coach, but angry with the shit reporter who looked down on them.

At this time, Jin Taige said to Ferran: "Please bring my bag, thank you."

Phelan handed Kim Taege a black briefcase, and the players didn't know what Kim Taege was going to do.

Rafael whispered to Alonso beside him: "The boss won't take out some other newspapers, will he?"

Alonso shook his head: "I don't know, the boss always does things very unexpectedly."

Jin Taige took out a cloth strip from the briefcase, and handed the briefcase to Ferran again.

"Paul, hold this end of the strip for me."

Scholes did the same, and Kintag stepped back to the side as if opening a picture scroll, and then slowly opened the cloth strip.

This cloth strip is 1.5 meters high and seven to eight meters long, with two English words written on it in bright red calligraphy.

"Old footballer".

"Old player?" Manchester United players were taken aback.

Jin Taige said to several people of Giggs: "I am going to give this banner to the 'King of Demons' fans association. If you score a goal in the next game, I will let them open this banner. Look at the idea. How about it?"

Rafael murmured to Alonso in a low voice: "I found out that the boss is like a child, and he likes to vent his anger on critics so much."

Alonso whispered: "Don't look at the boss who is usually kind to people, but he is actually very protective of the calf. As long as someone says that his players are not good, he will immediately stand up and fight against them!"

"Well, I like such a boss."

"Hehe, I like it too."

Seeing Jin Taige's banner, Giggs smiled: "Very good, I like it. Let those doubters see how good we old guys are!"

Jin Taige slapped his hands: "Okay! If that's the case, then I look forward to the moment when the banner will be unfurled at White Hart Lane!"

Tottenham coach Villas-Boas has had a hard time recently.

Villas-Boas was sacked by Chelsea in March 2012 due to poor team performance, and then became the head coach of Tottenham in July 3.In the first year of leading the team, Villas-Boas's performance did not convince the fans. In the 2012-7 season, Tottenham was still fourth in the league. In the 2011-2012 season, after Boas's polishing and transformation, Tottenham became Fifth in the league, even lost the qualification for the Champions League...

Although the results were not good, Boas explained the reason to the Tottenham board of directors: the team's main players are not strong enough, and the bench players are not capable enough. Therefore, in the final stage of the league's fourth round, they were overtaken by Arsenal with a gap of 1 point and lost. Chances of qualifying for the Champions League.

Boas' explanation is indeed the fact of the team, so the club's board of directors spent a lot of money this time. During the transfer period this summer, Tottenham became the club that spent the most money in the Premier League this year. They put all the money from selling Bell into the transfer. market, and an additional 2000 million euros.They spent 1.1 million euros to buy a total of 7 players including Shadley, Paulinho, Soldado, Capoue, Chiriches, Lamela and Eriksson.Tottenham's ambitions this season are not small. They hope that Villas-Boas can lead the team to the Premier League championship and create a glorious history of the team.

After Boas received strong signings, he was also full of confidence and ambition.In the opening stage, Tottenham's performance was really impressive. They had four wins and one draw in the first five rounds of the league. Lost to Newcastle and West Ham in a row, and was tied by Everton and Chelsea. In the last strong dialogue against Manchester City, Villas-Boas' team actually lost to their opponents with a big score of 0 to 6!

Tottenham are now ranked eighth in the league, and even Southampton is one point higher than them. The current situation is precarious.And such a poor record also made the board of directors very dissatisfied with Boas. If he continues to lose like this, maybe Boas will need to find a new job before Christmas.

Compared with Boas, Kintag's current situation is not much better.Both of them are young coaches. Boas ranked eighth in the league, while Kinteg was ranked fifth in the league half a month ago. If it weren't for the consecutive victories in these games, I am afraid that Kintag would also have a big dismissal risk.Boas lost 0 to 6 to Manchester City in the last game, and Kintag also lost 1 to 4 to Manchester City in the fifth round of the league.The two young coaches are now brothers and sisters.

So far in the league, Manchester United has had all dialogues with several Premier League teams.Winning Liverpool and Arsenal, tying Chelsea, and losing to Manchester City, although such results are not ugly, they are not enough for Manchester United, which is aiming to defend the league title.And the next duel with Tottenham will be Kintag's final battle against the top six in the Premier League.After this game, there will be no difficult games for the rest of the first half of the league.

And Tottenham is almost the same.

So Kintag and Boas are both looking forward to this game. They have the same idea in their hearts-to win the opponent, then grab points from the next weaker team, try to improve the ranking, and keep up with Manchester City.

On November 11th, Manchester United had just returned home from the Champions League group stage in Germany; three days later, Kintag led the team to London one day earlier to prepare for the life-and-death battle with Tottenham on December 27st.

It is not appropriate to say that the team's life and death battle is not appropriate. To be precise, it should be the coach's life and death battle...
