Arthur's Football

"Newcastle is every Englishman's second home team." This is what the British media used to describe the popularity of the Magpies in the local area.

It's just that no amount of love from fans can change the team's owner.

The current owner of Newcastle, Ashley, started out as a pirated jersey. In 07, he was ex-Newcastle chairman Fred.Sheppard bought Newcastle.

In Fred.During Shepard's management, although the Magpies did not win the championship, they once competed with Manchester United in the league.

The fans were dissatisfied with the delayed championship. In 07, the old man who had been in the Magpies for 10 years unexpectedly chose to sell his most beloved club.

Some Magpies fans said that after the owner was changed to Ashley, we knew that Sheppard is a chairman who loves the Magpies so much. He is a real fan, not a businessman who uses the team to make money.

businessman.

This is how Newcastle fans define the current chairman.

Look at all the absurd things he's done, the second month after buying the team, he wants to sell the team at a premium, why?He wants to buy Tottenham Hotspur!

Isn't this an opportunistic businessman?

With this incident as a basis, anything he does this season is so "natural" in the eyes of fans.

Ashley doesn't love the club, he doesn't care what the fans feel!But the fans have nothing to do with him, because their beloved team belongs to Ashley.

They can't even buy tickets, not go to the scene--

The results are already so bad, if you don't cheer for the players at this time, and don't let the players know that the fans love each of them, is it really necessary to let the team be relegated to the British Championship and sink to the bottom?

Under such circumstances, some extreme fans began to "activate" as soon as night fell, and the noise they made caused the security personnel in charge of accompanying the team to call the police immediately.

The efficiency of the local police was not bad. Arthur put on earplugs before going to bed and slept soundly until dawn.

But what Manchester United did not expect was that the Magpies fans carefully prepared a "duet" in order to entertain them.

Cristiano was also woken up with sound-proof earplugs. He got up and went to the door to listen to the movement, and he heard the service staff remind them that nothing happened and there was nothing to worry about.

Only then did he feel relieved, and took another look at Arthur who was still sleeping soundly during the "Duet" on the bed next door.

Cristiano once complained that he couldn't wake up after falling asleep, and Arthur didn't make any excuses. The Portuguese thought it was because he knew it well!Look, there is such a big commotion now, it is much bigger than thunder, and he is still sleeping so soundly!

One day in the future, he and Arthur talked about the past again, and Arthur explained to him:

According to the conclusions drawn by experts, he spent most of his time in deep sleep after falling asleep.

The reason for this is that he needs more time than ordinary people to "digest" everything he sees during the day.

Arthur's photographic memory is very similar to "hyper-memory". The reason why he does not have many problems caused by hyper-memory is due to his unique sleeping method.

After Arthur fell into a deep sleep, his brain would classify and transfer the information obtained during the day, and also clear out some invalid but complicated information.

Cristiano woke him up in a fixed way, which was the "manual" he got from the old housekeeper when he took over Arthur on the first day. After Arthur went to the national team, he silently read the manual again. Changed hands to Xiaopang.

After Xiaopang changed rooms because of sleeping and snoring, Beckham also knew about it.

That's why the fat man called Arthur "Alter" and was taught a lesson by everyone.

Who gave you the privilege!

He kissed Arthur's little face: "Okay, get up quickly, it's getting late, I guess BOSS will arrange for us to leave in advance."

Arthur nodded and said slowly, "Chris, good morning."

By the way, he leaned over to give the curly-haired god a hello.

After they finished washing, the team leader just knocked on the door to call for morning, this is to prevent both players from oversleeping.

"Morning Ronnie, morning Arthur."

The leader greeted them.

"Good morning, Robert."

"morning."

The team leader smiled and said, "Did you sleep well?"

Cristiano said angrily: "Although I fell asleep, I still woke up. How did these guys make the alarm?"

"It's not the alarm bell, it's that they have installed loudspeakers in the fire exits on each floor." The team leader smiled wryly, "But these fans have already been arrested by the police."

Arthur: =mouth=

He didn't expect that Benzema's guess was right, and the Newcastle fans really went all out.

"A total of more than a dozen people were arrested." The team leader sighed.

Who would have thought that Newcastle would undergo such a big change in just two seasons?

He looked at Arthur with some respect, a good boss must cherish it!

As soon as Kinnear woke up, he saw the news of the fans rioting. He helplessly raised his forehead, almost predicting how he would be criticized by Ferguson in the post-match press conference.

But now he can't think about things that far away, all he has to deal with is the present.

Fans called him Ashley's puppet when he first took over the team. After knowing his monthly contract, he became a joke and has no deterrent effect on players.

Yes, he can no longer control the locker room, and it is difficult to gain the trust of the players.

The only good news is that the players don't want to sink into the British Championship with the team. For many players, this will affect their worth, and it will also make them reviled by fans and criticized by the media.

This allowed Kinnear to carry it for the time being.

But the Magpie's opponent today is Manchester United, the current invincible Manchester United!Kinnear thought of Ferguson, who had the same heart problem as him, and couldn't help feeling that he was really different.

Fortunately, his boss, Ashley, did not force him to win this game. Of course, even if Ashley was tough, it would be useless. Kinnear faced the media at yesterday's pre-match press conference And sarcasm, he has publicly stated—

"Don't compare Alan Shearer to me. If he comes, I'll let him go, but you won't know how he's doing until he takes office. Don't take it for granted, let the facts speak!"

"Don't mention other people's names in front of me. I have heard many names so far, but at present I am the coach of this team. Even if I dismiss get out of class tomorrow, I am still the head coach of Newcastle today."

"Get out of class? I'm ready to let you go at any time, but as long as I haven't terminated the contract, I will still work hard to do my job well."

Anyway, Kinnear had such a plan!

On the bus to the stadium, Owen looked at his teammates, and finally set his sights on Alan.Smith's body.

Sitting next to him, Alan noticed Owen's gaze and took off his earphones to look at him.

The two had known each other since their teenage years, when they were both training at the England Junior Football Academy at the National Sports Center in Lilleshire, when Alan was 13 and Owen was 14.

Owen hesitated, smiled and shook his head.

Alan raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, but said nothing.

Alan's condition this season is not very good, and the broken leg still left a deep impact on him.But he still wants to show his best performance today. Who will make today's opponent Manchester United?

The media had repeatedly tried to stir up conflicts between him and Ferguson, wanting him to become the second Keane, but Alan was not interested in such a topic, because after he left, Ferguson wrote him a thank you letter.

This made him put all the original complaints in his heart, and then dissipated little by little.

It's not all Ferguson's fault, it's also because he didn't take his chances, he wasn't the best when Manchester United had 5 forwards, and he wasn't the most prominent when he dropped back as a midfielder that one.

After breaking his leg, Manchester United did not have his place.

But this does not mean that he does not want to perform better. He should let people know that after leaving Manchester United, Alan.Smith, still Alan.smith -

a professional player.

St. James' Park Stadium can accommodate 52000 fans. Today, the entire stadium is full of seats. On the south stand side, all police forces are dispatched to maintain order among home and away fans.

What happened last night made them have to be on high alert.

Arthur is very serious when warming up, and he will fully do every link, even though he has not entered the starting list.

Yes, today he is a substitute.

Although he looked at Ferguson with QAQ eyes, Ferguson turned around and left the locker room after reading the roster, completely ignoring him.

Like him, Cristiano and Kaka also have to sit on the bench. After all, the second round against Inter Milan is just around the corner, and their boss obviously chooses to stay focused on dealing with Inter Milan.

At the end of the warm-up, Arthur noticed that there was another person in front of him, he stopped and blinked.

Alan.Seeing Arthur's expression, Smith couldn't help laughing: "Boy, are you afraid of me?"

He had already seen that Cristiano wanted to come over a little bit. Obviously, this kid was indeed the sweetheart of the Portuguese curly hair.

Arthur shook his head. He knew it was a joke, but he still answered Alan seriously: "You can't beat me."

Alan: "..."

No matter how you look at it, this kid is a good baby, can't beat him?Hey, is he going to try it?

Alan also saw Ferdinand running over, the guy who ran fast, this guy is really good, Alan sneered in his heart.

Obviously this kid is also Ferdinand's sweetheart.

Oh, he and Ferdinand have been together since the youth training.

"Alan, what are you talking about with Arthur?" Owen felt that this scene was a bit wrong, so he ran over and said.

Owen then smiled at Arthur and said, "Arthur, we meet again."

"Michael." Arthur smiled at Owen.

This title also made Owen feel relieved. He has faded out of the national team long ago, and the kid in front of him has a good background. He is the darling of people no matter in Manchester United or in England. The media and fans love Arthur. Even more than Beckham and him, Arthur more than Rooney.

"What are you talking about?" Cristiano, who finally arrived, asked, but he didn't look at Arthur and Owen, but stared at Alan.

In all fairness, he and Alan used to have some disagreements, but these all disappeared with Alan's departure.

But the media has been hyping one point: Alan will be sold by Ferguson, not only because Alan is injured and will never meet Ferguson's expectations, but also because Alan's existence makes him unhappy as the top card.

He was worried that Alan would believe it and pass on this anger to Arthur. You must know that although Arthur can fight, this guy in front of him is also a famous bad boy in the Premier League!

After Alan saw Cristiano's eyes, he immediately became angry. Before he could say anything, Ferdinand finally ran over.

Ferdinand is worthy of being the double deputy team. He noticed that the camera was facing this way. After running over, he walked between the people on both sides, with one arm on Cristiano's shoulder and the other on Alan's shoulder. No matter how you look at it, it looks like the three brothers have a very good relationship.

Arthur observed the state of both sides, and he patted Cristiano on the shoulder: "I'm joking with Alan."

Alan raised his eyebrows, while the expressions of Cristiano and Ferdinand were a little subtle.

Arthur, are you kidding me?

"A cold joke?" Ferdinand murmured.

Cristiano stared at Arthur silently, he had nothing to say about the chick's smooth play.

"I want to come to him to exchange jerseys after the game." Alan said suddenly.

This surprised Owen, but Alan ignored their eyes, looked at Arthur and said, "Do you want to exchange?"

"My pleasure." Arthur stared at Alan and said, "Can you tell me your email address? I can recommend two sports medicine specialists for you."

Owen's heart moved, and he immediately said, "Sports medicine expert?"

Arthur nodded: "Michael, do you need anything?"

of course!

Alan looked at Arthur with complicated eyes. He actually came here to "tease" Arthur. On the one hand, he did appreciate Arthur, and on the other hand, of course, he wanted to have fun before the game.

"I'll give it to you after the game." After he finished speaking, Arthur showed a smile.

"Me too," Owen said.

Cristiano nodded and tugged at Arthur: "It's almost time, let's go back first."

"But my warm-up—" Arthur gestured to the male god with his eyes.

Cristiano gave him a supercilious look, then glanced at Ferdinand, who let go of his shoulders and said to Owen and Alan, "See you after the game."

After walking a few steps, Ferdinand listened to Curly and taught his cub: "Next time, don't run so far alone. Why do you run all the way to the corner in such a big stadium? Fortunately, that guy is not bad today, just in case When will you meet someone who wants to beat you up?"

"I see," Arthur said.

"Don't fool me, every time you 'know', you just know." Cristiano ruthlessly exposed him.

"Chris, you're so smart."

"...Why do I feel that you are mocking me?"

Ferdinand: →_→

People have self-knowledge!

"Can the specialist you speak of fix that guy's leg? Although I think this guy was at that level when he wasn't injured."

"With his playing style, he will get injured sooner or later!"

Ferdinand: →_→

When fighting, I have to pull sideways to protect your level?

After being numb, it really became more and more verbose.

But the deputy team still interjected: "Is that expert that good?"

Arthur could hear the concern in the voices of the deputy team and the male god, and patiently explained to them: "It depends on the specific situation. Some injuries are irreversible, but this is the best expert in sports medicine. They were the ones who performed Hager's surgery before. of."

Although Hager was still sold, Ferdinand, as the vice-captain, also knew some inside information.Manchester United tried their best to invite the best experts for Hager's operation. Although the operation was successful, it is said that he has the physique of a glass man, and it is difficult to recover his previous performance after this injury.

Coupled with Manchester United's current midfield explosion, in order to sign up for the Champions League for Valencia, they finally chose to sell Hager.

Cristiano said suddenly: "There should be information about his injury in the team."

After he finished speaking, he saw Ferdinand looking at him with a half-smile, and immediately stared at him "violently": "What are you looking at, I just feel that BOSS is very guilty of selling him."

Ferdinand felt that he made a good excuse, so he stopped laughing at him, and said to Arthur: "That kid is a good player. I trained with him during the youth training period. Although we always look down on each other, but I don't want to see him like this."

Alan's performance this season is not good. He seems to have lost himself, and he can never regain the spirituality of the past. All that remains is blood.

He's still a fighter, but he's not a good player anymore.

"I'll discuss it with him after the game," Arthur said softly.

He could see that Cristiano and Ferdinand were very important to Alan.Smith has very delicate feelings.

Because he was a substitute and didn't have to line up, Arthur could only sit on the bench with Baba Mama in advance. When Rooney entered the field, he yelled at him coquettishly: "Arthur, wait for me to score!"

Alan.Smith immediately glared at the fat man fiercely.

The fat man smiled at him, not afraid of him.

Neither Cristiano nor Kaka bothered to talk to the fat man, but Arthur unexpectedly put his hands next to his mouth and shouted back: "Waza, come on!"

He wants to play QAQ.

Ferguson looked back at him speechlessly. Did this kid shout so loudly for him to hear?

But Ferguson glanced at him, shook hands with Kinnear briefly, and stood on the sidelines away from the bench.

Arthur looked at the merciless back of the lord, he could only lower his head regretfully.

Lao Sihu stroked his golden retriever and said in a low voice: "The rotation is for better performance in the next game. The boss will definitely let you play for a while in the second half."

Play……

Is this word really good?Kaka looked at Lao Si.

He was also a little worried: with Arthur's learning ability, sooner or later he would be turned into an old fritter by Lao Si and the others.

Cristiano covered his mouth with his hand and whispered in his ear, "You have to be more vigilant."

Brazilians nodded sympathetically.

Manchester United continued to play 442, the left back was Evra, and Ferguson let Valencia, who had originally played the right midfielder, withdraw to the right back position. The two central defenders were Ferdinand and teenager Evans.The midfield four are Nani, Giggs, Beckham and Anderson.On the striker, Rooney and Benzema partnered to form a double center.

In the opening 2 minutes, Taylor, who only transferred from Wigan Athletic to Newcastle in winter, found Owen with a long pass. Owen dribbled the ball all the way to the penalty area, and then took a long shot.

After Van der Sar's previous record of not conceding a goal was interrupted, he found trouble with the defense when he had nothing to do, especially Evra.

He has been tossed by the Dutch many times. Evra has to think about the consequences every time he goes forward. Facing Owen's shot, Evans, who had a rare chance to play today, made another mistake. He almost made a clearance. Fortunately, Evra cleared the ball out of the stands in time.

Van der Sar stared at Evans viciously, and Evans obediently admitted his mistake to Papa.

After Newcastle played a wave of offense at the beginning, the game slowly entered the rhythm of Manchester United.

"Long ball from Beckham! Get Benzema! Oh, what a pity."

Andy.Gray went on to praise Ferguson: "Ferguson retreated Valencia today and let Beckham appear in the most suitable right forward position for him. He made a correct decision. Valencia is on the right The performance of the defender is quite eye-catching. When Beckham left him in the center, the Ecuadorian blasted Newcastle on the right. If he can partner with Arthur, I think this will give the Lions wings! "

"A griffin? It's too ugly." Richard.Coyce said dissatisfied.

Andy.Gray pretended not to hear his partner's complaints.

It was Redondo's suggestion to let Valencia play the right-back position, which was also a windfall for Ferguson.

In the training match, because the position on the right side was particularly tight, Arthur was the main team, Beckham was the substitute, and Valencia liked the right side, and Manchester United has not had a particularly fixed main candidate for the right back this season. Gary , Brown, and O'Shea took turns playing.

Competition is high, but it also speaks to a lack of stability.

After Valencia's cameo performance at right back was excellent, Ferguson sent him on the field in this game.

After Benzema missed the opportunity, the fat man patted Benzema on the shoulder, covered his mouth and said: "Karim, let it be if the opportunity is not good."

Benzema raised his eyebrows and glanced at the fat man, your position just now is not as good as mine!

But he also knew what Fatty said to Arthur before the game, so he thought for a while and said, "Are you standing?"

With Beckham, it is very comfortable to stand in the penalty area. Fatty catches the ball in the penalty area. He is the second striker. Maybe he can steal one if he is lucky?

Anyway, Benzema thinks his luck will be better.

In the 16th minute of the game, Benzema's chance came!Giggs went straight in the middle, and Benzema grabbed Steven.Taylor grabbed the ball before, but he didn't take it again. He rubbed the inside of his instep and the ball passed to the penalty area.

Newcastle's Argentine central defender Coloccini wanted to shovel the ball, but the fat man not only did not stop the ball, but also rushed forward with the ball unreasonably.

He remembered very clearly that this kid was very rude to Arthur when he played in the game!

Coloccini didn't expect that Rooney didn't dodge, but it was too late for him to stop, and Rooney didn't really plan to fight the Argentine, and he wasn't Alan.Smith's pair of feet madman!

Out of the corner of Rooney's eye, Benzema had already caught sight, so the fat man who is often called the rough guy showed off his footwork once in a while, and he also played a heel!

Benzema was taken aback. The fat man didn't give him a warning in advance. This unexpected pass made him fight hard to get the point, but the fat man's timing was quite good, allowing him to avoid the ball. The opponent's defender, without stopping the ball, he shot directly to the upper right corner of the goal!

As soon as he finished shooting, he heard a "boom", and the fat man was pinned down by Coloccini.

"Beep—" the referee signaled that the goal is valid.

Benzema didn't see what happened, and Coloccini raised his hand to indicate that he didn't do it!He did not foul!

Benzema didn't have time to pay attention to him, so he quickly squatted on the ground and asked the fat man: "What's wrong? What happened just now?"

The fat man pressed down on the base of his thigh, and said with teary eyes, "Tuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Benzema understands in seconds!He looked at the fat man speechlessly, and the fat man looked at him crying, so he could only wave and call for the team doctor.

After Ferguson saw Benzema's gesture, he cursed in a low voice. As soon as he turned around, he saw Arthur staring at him with bright eyes. Thinking about the kid's hard training yesterday and his performance on the bus, he could only feel sorry for him. He waved.

Arthur immediately took off his coat and ran to warm up, and he didn't forget to sign to the fat man when he turned back and ran.

When the fat man was helped off the field, he even ran to ask, but the fat man didn't have the nerve to tell him that he was so excited when he avoided Coloccini's legs after passing a coquettish ball...

Ferguson angrily waved to Arthur to come over, and after Arthur obediently came to him, he said to Arthur seriously: "The next home game against Inter Milan, do you want to play?"

think about it!Arthur continued to look at him with bright eyes.

Ferguson patted him on the head. Although it was a little strenuous because the kid was too tall, he was amused again when he saw Arthur obediently bowed his head to pat him. He coughed and said, "Perform yourself well and try to Solve the problem in the first half, and run around in the second half."

Arthur got it.

Fatty accidentally used up a spot. In order for him to have the strength to prepare for the next game, Ferguson will definitely replace him in advance.But in this way, Ferguson only has one substitution in his hand. In order to ensure the victory, Ferguson gave him a death order: "Score as soon as possible."

The fourth official on the side looked at Ferguson speechlessly. If he is not mistaken, the current score is 0:1. Manchester United leads away, right?

Arthur finally played as he wished, and Beckham was the happiest one!

In Laobei's opinion, Arthur's value can be best reflected when he plays a center forward. Even though he is not a traditional standing center and needs space, Arthur's breakthrough is too strong. He can create space by himself, even if he is a single player. The arrow is also fearless, let alone Benzema who plays for him?

Old Bei was gearing up to feed Arthur until he vomited, which in fact he did.

Less than two minutes after Arthur came on, Beckham received a short pass from Giggs, evaded a tackle from Graemy, and sent the ball forward with his signature passing move.

Before Beckham passed the ball, both Arthur and Benzema were waiting in the penalty area. At the moment when Old Bei passed the ball, Arthur ran forward a few steps, and the ball fell from the air precisely.

When the ball stopped in mid-air, Arthur pushed his knees and adjusted the height of the ball. He stretched his body. Before the ball fell again, Arthur maintained the posture of supporting his left leg and tensed the toes of his right foot, just like everyone else. When everyone thought that Arthur was about to complete a textbook shot, he flicked his right foot lightly, and then completed the shot with his left leg!

Newcastle goalkeeper Harper was ready to save when he adjusted the ball, but he was obviously deceived by Arthur... When he saw Arthur complete the shot with his left foot, it was too late to adjust the direction of the save, and the ball was gone Drilled into the net nest, bouncing on the ground.

Kinnear frowned. He knew it was a disconnect between their midfield and defense. Neither side put pressure on Arthur, and gave him time to adjust his shot. He adjusted it twice, playing their tricks goalkeeper!

Assisted!Old Bei was very happy. He didn't wait for Arthur to run to him, so he ran forward and hugged Arthur.

Arthur did feel that he played very easily today, at least compared to when he played against Newcastle for the first time.

That was the second game of his life, when he came off the bench, compared to when they played against Newcastle in the first round at the beginning of the season, only a few people in Newcastle's starting lineup appeared again today, and Coloccini is one of them.

The Argentine who had just landed in the Premier League performed very well in that game and left a deep impression on Arthur.

But today Newcastle's midfield, whether it is the Argentine or other players, in Arthur's view, the performance is not positive.

Their most eye-catching performance today is actually the two strikers——

Owen and Alan.smith.

Especially the latter, who frequently retreats to take the ball, is also the one who gives Irving the most support.

Being two goals behind at home, Kinnear was also a little anxious. He originally wanted to line up 451 today, but Irving's recent performance made him really worried. Of course, Alan.Smith wasn't much better off, either.

But struggling on the edge of the relegation zone, they urgently needed a victory. After making the decision, he still sent a double center forward, but the midfielder was more defensive, which allowed the two forwards to get very little support.

attack?defense?

Kinnear has to make a choice!

He hesitated for a minute, and when Manchester United was about to end the celebration, he heard Beckham's voice faintly: "Try to score two more..."

He immediately shouted at the players on the field and made a defensive gesture.

That golden-haired boy fed 6 West Hams by himself!

Even if he is a "one-monthly" monthly coach, he doesn't want to be beaten 9-2 by Manchester United and announce his resignation immediately after the game in disgrace!

The author has something to say: Alan.Smith is a very Red Devils player.

He came from the youth training of Leeds United. When Ferdinand left Leeds United, he almost flew into the arms of Manchester United, while Alan left in tears.

Leeds fans can't blame him.

He is a bad boy, he can teach him in the locker room even if he came a year later than the president: why don't you pass the ball to me?

Although you fought against the five scum, you fought back.

Ferdinand staggered.

Alan may not be the best striker, but he is spiritual and has the blood that is very suitable for Manchester United. Ferguson likes such players.

At that time, Keane was kicked out and a midfielder was urgently needed. When the whole world couldn't buy a good midfielder, Ferguson transformed Alan.

Later, after Alan broke his leg, it was difficult to meet Ferguson's expectations of him, and he didn't want to continue to play as a substitute at Manchester United, so Ferguson sold him.

Later, the reporter interviewed him and asked him if he was desperate if he could not return to the national team.

He said: The real despair is in the summer, I don't know if I can play in the top league.

He should have complained, but after selling him to Newcastle, Ferguson wrote him a letter, explaining to him why he sold him, and said that this was a helpless choice.

Many fans said that Sir Alex owed Alan.

Perhaps it is true that he feels indebted, so Ferguson, who almost never explains, wrote such a letter.

Alan has never accused him in front of the media, or resented him.

He accepted his fate like that, because a game, a broken leg that fans couldn't bear to watch, ruined his football career.
