I Want to Be the King of Football
One hundred and fifty-seven the biggest obstacle to Manchester United
In the morning, Carrington, a western suburb of Manchester, England.
Along a remote country lane, Ferguson, the godfather of the Red Devils, drove to Manchester United's Carrington training base.
This is a characteristic of many English teams.
An inch of land in the urban area cannot accommodate the club’s huge training base, so many teams choose to set up their training bases in remote rural towns, such as Manchester United and Manchester City. The training bases of the two teams are next to each other. Yes, all in Carrington.
What is more special is Chelsea. Their training base is near London Heathrow Airport, which is relatively close to the city, but that training base looks like a broken warehouse. Anyone who walks in will not believe it. It is the heartland of many Premier League stars training.
In addition to away games and vacations, Ferguson drives through the country road on time every morning to the training base.
The staff also knew him and his car, opened the door for him from a distance, and saluted the godfather of the Red Devils, whose status was so lofty that even the CEO was in awe of three points.
Unimpeded all the way to the parking lot, just got out of the car, Ferguson saw the right-hand man Carlos Queiroz.
The Portuguese is very capable, especially when it comes to training players, and has his own uniqueness.
As he got older, Ferguson no longer had the energy he had when he was young to manage all aspects of the team, especially daily training, which forced him to delegate power to assistants and focus on the tactical arrangements of the game.
Queiroz is such a reassuring assistant. Ferguson only needs to tell him what he wants, and Queiroz can help him do it properly, making Ferguson very satisfied.
But then there will be another problem, and that is management.
A group of veteran players in the team headed by Class 92 only obeyed Ferguson and were not interested in Queiroz.
Although Ferguson told this group of favorite generals more than once, Queiroz represented him, but who was convinced?
Keane refused to accept, Giggs and others did not accept, even Ruud van Nistelrooy did not accept.
This is also normal. Queiroz’s coaching career does not have any brilliant resume. The golden generation of Portugal is the most successful, but that is the youth training. For the world-class stars with eyes above the top of Manchester United, this is What is a point score?
then,
There has also been a split within Manchester United.
Coupled with the age of the team and the continental style of play that Ferguson has vigorously promoted in recent years, Queiroz has been under unprecedented pressure.
Because of this, every time he sees Queiroz, Ferguson's first reaction is to smile.
Smile as kindly as possible.
Ha, Carlos, so early? Ferguson stepped forward.
Queiroz nodded, followed closely, and said to Ferguson: There are some things I want to report to you.
Ferguson nodded as he walked, You said.
The European Cup is approaching, and Sporting Lisbon's new stadium, the Alvalade Stadium, is about to be renovated and will be opened in August. I hope to invite a team with outstanding strength and market appeal to play a warm-up match. contacted me.
Queiroz is Portuguese and has extensive personal connections in Portuguese football. Sporting Lisbon hopes to play a warm-up match with Manchester United, and it is natural to contact him through Queiroz.
August? Ferguson frowned. Do we have time?
One can still be arranged at the beginning of the month. Queiroz replied.
Ferguson looked at his assistant, Well, let's play a game.
Okay, I'll make arrangements. Queiroz said.
At Manchester United, as long as Ferguson nods, then this matter is basically half-successful, and the rest is to go to the administrative department to go through the procedures, and basically it will not be rejected.
Also, the two teams from last night's UEFA Cup final came out.
Celtic in? Ferguson asked.
Queiroz nodded with a slight smile, As you expected, the Celtics advanced.
Ferguson nodded and smiled, Martin O'Neal is still very good. It doesn't seem long before he will come to the Premier League. He will be an important opponent for us in the future. We must be careful and keep an eye on him.
As a Scotsman, Ferguson is happy with Celtic reaching the final.
As the head coach of Manchester United, Ferguson has always been very concerned about his potential opponents in the future. Martin O'Neill is the focus of Ferguson, one of the new generation of European football coaches.
If I'm not wrong, the other team should be that arrogant kid.
But Queiroz shook his head, You guessed wrong this time.
Guess wrong? Ferguson stopped, a little surprised.
It's Sporting Lisbon that made the cut. Queiroz laughed.
Ferguson has always been bright-eyed, his eyes are like torches, and he rarely misses his eyes, but this time he really guessed wrong.
What's the matter? Ferguson was very strange.
Sporting Lisbon played against Porto and Celtic played against Boavista. The first leg between the two sides was 0-0 and 1-1. Boavista scored an away goal, but Sporting Lisbon did not.
Ferguson was certain before that Boloni was already exhausted, and Mourinho had no choice but to guard against it, and Mourinho would definitely strengthen the team's offense on the basis of a solid defense in the first round and grab a goal on the road. ball.
Just one goal for Porto and Sporting Lisbon is dead!
This is Ferguson's original words.
Unexpectedly, Ferguson bet against the Celtics, but not against Porto.
The seventeenth minute of the first half started. In just ten minutes, teenager Su Dong scored twice, and the final score was 2-0. As he spoke, a flash of appreciation flashed in Queiroz's eyes.
He is also extremely accurate in looking at people, especially young players.
Su Dong? Ferguson chewed on the name. This name has appeared in his ears several times over the past year. Among them, the assistant Queiroz mentioned the most, and the other was Cristiano Ronaldo.
Unlike the latter, which impressed Ferguson because of his name, Su Dong was mainly because of his performance.
Queiroz described him as: having the tactical role of Kluivert, the strong impact of Vieri, the cunning of Romario, and the power aesthetics of Batistuta, the god of war.
Ordinary players can get a compliment, and that's pretty awesome.
But Su Dong can get a series of titles and praise from Queiroz, which is extraordinary.
The only obstacle is being young.
But even so, Ferguson is not convinced that Mourinho will be unprepared.
This is unlikely. With the character of that arrogant boy, he must have made all preparations. In the first round, he completely blocked Su Dong. Why did he score twice in the second round? Ferguson was very concerned. surprised.
He is well-informed and rarely surprised by the performance of a certain player.
Queiroz still kept smiling, Because, both of Su Dong's goals came from his left foot.
Left foot? Ferguson seemed to understand.
Before this game, Su Dong scored 18 goals in the Portuguese Super League and 8 goals in the UEFA Cup, all of which were scored with the right foot and header, not to mention the left foot, even the assist. None, which makes many people think that Su Dong's left foot is not a threat, and Mourinho also arranged targeted defenses for his right foot and header in the first round, but the result...
Ferguson laughed. He didn't expect that the arrogant kid would capsize in the gutter.
But soon, he realized a problem.
Su Dong's left foot is also very powerful?
There was a flash of inspiration in Queiroz’s eyes. He did not have many direct descendants at Manchester United. Instead, he was questioned and excluded by stars including Keane and Ruud van Nistelrooy, which made him need to introduce some of his own direct descendants. .
I think his left foot is more imaginative and creative than his right foot, and at the same time more surprising, at the moment, his left foot is obviously not very proficient, but in time, when he is fully proficient with his left foot , then he's a player with both feet, like Diego Forlan.
Diego Forlan, an extremely rare player with two feet in world football, which made him perform very well in the Argentine League, Ferguson immediately took a fancy to him and brought him to Manchester United.
As a result, two years later, Forlan did not show convincing strength at Manchester United, which also made him another questionable transfer in Ferguson's signings.
Queiroz mentioned Diego Forlan at this time, which made Ferguson feel a little regretful, but he became more curious about Su Dong.
He is 1.95 meters tall, with amazing speed and explosive power, strong body, and delicate feet. Not long ago, he made up for the shortcomings of the header, and now he has even discovered the attributes of his left foot. What is the structure of this kid?
How many secrets does he hide?
Carlos, if we want to buy him, how much will it cost?
It's about the same as Diego Forlan, 10 million euros can be done. Queiroz replied immediately.
Ferguson looked deeply at his assistant, Are you sure?
Queiroz turned around in his mind, There's a problem.
Say.
I'm sure to convince Sporting Lisbon with 10 million euros, but it's hard to convince Sudong.
why?
He can't apply for a labor certificate, and he hasn't played even a single game for the Chinese team.
What? Ferguson was very surprised. He hasn't played for the Chinese team yet?
Well, it's true. Queiroz was very sure.
Is the Chinese team so strong? Even players like Su Dong look down on them?
Queiroz was at a loss for words, and he was full of doubts himself, because he felt incredible.
According to Su Dong's performance this season, he is completely qualified to enter the Portuguese national team, but the Chinese national team does not look down on it. What else can we say?
Ferguson thought for a while, feeling a little funny and a little helpless.
Without a labor certificate, the clauses of special treatment for special talents that he and Wenger have been calling for for a long time have not yet come out. What should I do?
Ferguson shook his head and sighed, and walked into his office.
This is really troublesome!
