Chapter 60 Liverpool visit

"You kid, you can't be a graduate of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, right?" Ferguson murmured while shaking hands after the game.Although it was the first time they fought against each other on a formal occasion, they could almost meet each other every morning at work.

"Old man, have you watched too much Harry Potter?" Duncan said bluntly, rolling his eyes.In the eyes of others, Ferguson is a meritorious coach who runs the army with an iron fist and has a brilliant record, but in the eyes of Duncan who meets almost every day, Ferguson is a stubborn old man.If there is anything special about this old man, it is his unrivaled hunger for the championship.

The reason why they can still talk and laugh after losing is because with two rounds left in the league, Manchester United still lead Chelsea by 6 points, and they are far ahead in goal difference, so Ferguson is not in a hurry.

"Sometimes, I really doubt whether you are a wizard." Thinking of Manchester City's four goals in the game, it is difficult for Ferguson to attribute them to "luck".

"Want to know?" Duncan laughed: "I'll tell you if I kill Tottenham in the next round!"

"..."

In the subsequent press conference, the reporters gave up on Ferguson, who was about to win the league championship, and instead pointed their guns and short guns at Duncan.

Nine in a row!
No one expected that Duncan's Manchester City would win nine consecutive victories!Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester United have all become footnotes in this nine-game winning streak.

Some media like statistics have dug up historical records.The glorious nine-game winning streak has broken Manchester City's winning streak in the Premier League.In the nine-game winning streak, Manchester City scored a total of 31 goals, averaging more than three goals per game, even surpassing the top Manchester United.

The record of nine consecutive victories is only achieved by Arsenal in the 03-04 unbeaten season.But compared to Arsenal's luxurious lineup at the time, Manchester City's lineup was a bit too sexy.The combined value of the whole team can't even buy a thigh of gun king Henry.

This is something that last season's firefighting coach Pierce couldn't do!At the end of last season, Pierce led Manchester City unbeaten in eight rounds, which is already a remarkable record.But in fact, unbeaten in eight rounds, only three wins and five draws.And Duncan led the team, but won nine consecutive victories!
With the same set of cards, Pierce brought the team into the relegation zone, but Duncan won a wave of eight consecutive victories, and even defeated Manchester United in the same city derby.

Isn't that enough to explain Duncan's ability?
Of course, there are still objections, pointing out that Duncan's Manchester City is tactically disorganized and lackluster.I just want to say that in this game against Manchester United, out of Manchester City's four goals, three were missed.And these three pickers are not even the same person.

Could it be that Manchester City has its own "cleaner" attribute?
From the perspective of the opposing side, looking at the nine consecutive victories, Manchester City has not won a game in an upright manner. Every game has a taste of slanting.

Of course, such a debate actually has no effect on Manchester City.The most tangible thing is Manchester City's position in the standings.

After winning the 36th round, Manchester City's points surpassed Portsmouth and jumped to eighth.Tottenham, which had a draw in this round, is only 1 point higher than Manchester City at this time.

The European War is really at your fingertips!

And Tottenham's opponent in the next game is the leader Manchester United, which almost sentenced Tottenham to death!
Manchester City fans can't help but cheer!
In just two more rounds, they will have the chance to go to Europe. What could be more exciting than this?
At the same time, the voice of renewing Duncan's contract is once again high.

Defeating the rivals in the same city allowed Duncan to win the respect of all Manchester City fans.In just a few days, the number of members of the Duncan fan group "Stubborn Donkey" has surged to 3000, and this number is still increasing every day.

Some radical fans have even organized to protest at the gate of the club.Protest why the club did not renew Duncan.The board of directors is also very entangled. Three or five clubs have sent explicit letters to introduce Duncan, and the salary they offer is more than ten times that of Manchester City.The promised transfer budget is as high as tens of millions of pounds.And because of Manchester City's poor financial situation, if they want to continue to participate in the Premier League next season, then in the next transfer period, not only will they not be able to pay a penny for the transfer fee, on the contrary, they will sell players to cash out.

Even the Manchester City board of directors couldn't think of a reason to keep Duncan from staying in Manchester City.

But they were not reconciled to letting go like this, so the matter was suspended like this.

At the same time, after following Duncan for seven days in a row, just when Diop was impatient, he finally found the scene he wanted.

Duncan got off work that day, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the community, two men stood in front of him.

One man was tall and thin, with a serious expression; the other was a fat businessman who looked kind to everyone with a smile.

"Sure enough!" Tens of meters away, under the cover of the night, Diop's round head appeared behind the flowers.

With tens of meters away, he couldn't hear the other party's conversation, but the two people Diop knew each other.

The tall and thin man is the personal secretary of the chairman of Liverpool, and the fat man is the deputy manager of Liverpool's athletic department.

And Diop knew that these two men were Liverpool's coaching team.

These two people appear here, so the purpose is ready to come out: Liverpool wants to contact Duncan in private!
Thinking of this, Diop was excited.

Clap clap clap!

Picking up the digital camera that had been prepared a long time ago, I frantically clicked.

I believe that with this evidence of "fornication with foreign enemies", the Manchester City Club and those stupid fans will be extremely disappointed in Duncan, right?
At this time, it is time for me, "Diop of Loyalty", to stand up!

Thinking of this, Diop's heart trembled!

Watching Duncan lead the two into the community and into the house, Diop hid in a hidden place, pressing the digital camera repeatedly.In order to prevent Duncan from denying the account at that time, Diop even took a few frontal photos at the risk of being discovered.

In the photo, Duncan and the deputy manager of Liverpool's athletic department had a happy conversation, full of harmony.

Diop even maliciously guessed that Duncan had agreed to Liverpool's conditions.

After getting the result he wanted, Diop hummed a little song and left slowly.At this moment, his mood is extremely comfortable!

Diop guessed right, the two staff members of the Liverpool club did come to contact Duncan first.The salary they promised is five times that of Manchester City, and the transfer budget is as high as 5000 million pounds!
Duncan was noncommittal, and did not answer them clearly, but only said that he would consider it.After all, Manchester City has not yet proposed a contract extension, and he has to make plans for next season.

What Diop didn't know was that just 10 minutes after Duncan saw off the Liverpool people, an ordinary Volkswagen bus stopped downstairs in Duncan's complex.

The two people who came out of Volkswagen were Manchester City Chairman Wardell and the club's general manager.

"Anyway, you have to give it a try." Waddell looked at the lights upstairs and walked up.
