Chapter 63 Meeting "York" Will Not Be a Good Thing

In the match between Manchester United and York City, center Barnes of the League Two team performed a hat-trick, and he defeated the old and new Manchester United by himself.

The British are most respectful of gentlemanly demeanor, and they pay attention to decency in everything they do. However, Manchester United did not lose any credit in this game. They were criticized by the media all over the UK in turn, and they were almost paraded around the streets with a sign for Ferguson.

This time Ferguson didn't dare to give up. He apologized when it was time to apologize, checked himself when it was time to check himself, and patted his chest to promise that he would rectify it.

Beckham parked the car in Carrington's garage, flipped through a few pages of the newspaper, and found that everyone was still hammering the old man, but he couldn't think of any new excuses.

Those media who thought about the Scotsman thought about it and found that his private life was fine, his hands and feet were clean when buying and selling players, he was a career-oriented management cadre, and his performance was not bad.

The only thing he can talk about is that he used "nepotism" in the early days of coming to Manchester United to put Darren Ferguson, who was mediocre in the youth academy, into the first team, and let the club provide his son with a professional contract.

And Darren Ferguson lost the best opportunity to grow up under the protection of his father. When he really couldn't stay in the Manchester United team, his skills had already been finalized.

This incident fully demonstrates that "tiger father" and "dog son" are a perfect match.

Beckham ate the old man's melon with relish, but he didn't think the old man could be blamed for it.

Football aside, the Don was not much different from the rest of the working class, with a strong, stubborn, braggart personality that was not to be blamed for.

He started his own business and wanted to help his children, but there was nothing wrong with him.

He knows that it is not easy to work alone, so he wants to create some high-quality living environment for his son. He is simply a typical good father.

Moreover, Darren Ferguson's salary at Manchester United is not high, so it should be regarded as a benefit for the club's executives.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the old man for being too "ordinary" and not having a long-term vision in raising children. There is really nothing to say about other aspects.

And the "Manchester Evening News", which had been chasing after his butt before, was much more behaved this time. When commenting on Manchester United's games, it was cautious, talking about things, and never dared to cross the threshold.

Another news in this round of the League Cup is York City's center Barnes. After scoring 3 goals for Manchester United, this unknown center suddenly became the favorite of the League One. Many teams want to buy this League Two center during the winter transfer period.

It is said that with his performance in one game, his value has soared by 50 pounds in the transfer market. This increase is already rapid in the second and third tier leagues.

Beckham tidied up a bunch of scattered newspapers and put them on the passenger seat.

At this time, he remembered the era when John described his life. All the news can be checked on the mobile phone. Except that it hurts the eyes, it is much more convenient than now.

Today's mobile phones can also make calls, and the memory is so small that they can't even store many text messages.

I remember that in the past two years, Bart got a few pictures of beauties from nowhere, and they were prettier than those third-page girls in "The Sun" who didn't wear clothes, which made everyone envious.

After 15 years, this is definitely an act of sand sculpture.

After the training started, Ferguson's mood was very stable, and he didn't feel like he was enduring and was about to explode at any time.

On the contrary, the two "sinners" Bruce and Phil seemed particularly embarrassed, making everyone want to make jokes about the two of them, and they were a little bit embarrassed.

The time came quietly on September 9. Manchester United stood at the Hillsborough Stadium, preparing to score another three points on Sheffield Wednesday, to ease the embarrassing situation of being blasted by low-level teams in the League Cup.

Although Sheffield played Manchester United at home on Wednesday, their head coach Francis did not play psychological games in the press conference.

He simply expressed his determination to the fans: "Before the game, I would like to thank the fans for their support. Without them, there would be no Sheffield Wednesday. I want to express my apologies to the fans in advance. This game should not be very good.

We will not lose to Manchester United at home under any circumstances! "

The translation of his circling words into adult language is actually very simple: "Excuse me, I'm going to take the bus!"

His words startled Ferguson, who praised him in front of the media that day: "Trevor is an outstanding guy. Under his leadership, the Sheffield Wednesday team has been at the top of the standings for two consecutive seasons. The team has always played wonderful offensive coordination. He is good at offense."

After listening to Ferguson's praise, Francis' response was also very smart: "We are a team willing to attack, but we have to admit that Mr. Alex's team has an enviable counterattack ability. Our results in the first six rounds were not ideal. In front of a championship-level team, we need to think more about getting points."

Seeing that the other party was not even ready to ask for a face, Ferguson simply didn't waste his words and just finished.

Let the youth training players mix up a cup game, and the Manchester United first team got a six-day rest for the first time.

After the running-in at the beginning of the season, the elite players in Manchester United's "Class of 92" have fully integrated into the team. With the return of Keane and Cole, the team has formed the top team of existing players.

Before the start of the game, the guards at the Hillsborough Stadium looked like they were on the verge of a formidable enemy and kept guiding the fans. They did not dare to let too many fans gather at the entrance of the stadium. They have been doing this all these years.

After the Hillsborough tragedy, the stadium was regarded as an ominous place by everyone.When many teams challenged Sheffield Wednesday in an away game, the head coach even urged the fans not to go away to cheer for the team, and they could get the understanding of the fans.

United got off to an almost perfect start, with Keane constantly looking for a passing combination with Beckham in midfield.

The two made two wall-style one-twos in a row, causing Sheffield Wednesday's defense to panic. They knew how Manchester United beat Bolton. The scene now is very similar to that at that time.

Just when they were about to double-team Beckham, the latter suddenly shifted the ball from the right to the left. Lee Sharpe used a continuous change of direction to shake off the defender, and then passed the ball to Giggs in the penalty area.

The Welsh boy passed the Sheffield Wednesday centre-back the moment he received the ball, and he passed the ball to Andy Cole the moment the goalkeeper struck.

Manchester United's number one striker, who hadn't broken the scoring drought this season, outflanked in time, kicked calmly, and kicked the football over the crossbar with a push shot less than two meters from the goal.

How did you practice such delicate footwork?

Beckham put his head in his hands and couldn't believe his eyes.

In this position, the ball can be kicked over the crossbar, and the player who touches the ball needs to have a strong sense of the ball. This must be a Brazilian player to handle the ball well.

He glanced at the sideline, Ferguson looked upfield flushed, and he went up again.

Cole, with an embarrassed face, kept explaining to Keane: "There is a pit in this place, and the football jumped when it touched the pit!"

His behavior is collectively referred to as "the wrong feet blame the uneven road".

Keane nodded with a playful expression: "You've got to do all these shitty things!"

Encountering the shock at the opening, the Xie Wednesday team immediately took back the formation and placed the bus wholeheartedly, no matter how the opponent kicked, they would never press up again.

With fewer opponents and less confrontation, Beckham suddenly felt nothing when he touched the ball in midfield.

As long as they don't reach the frontcourt, the opponents don't care how the Manchester United players struggle. As long as they are near the penalty area, it is a crowd tactics.

At this time, Beckham found that he had become a right-sided cross-type player again. The opponent surrounded the goal three times, and he was not afraid of any attack.

The Sheffield Wednesday fulfilled the promise of the head coach and abandoned the offense, but also managed to draw with Manchester United.

At the end of the game, on the way back to the locker room, Gary Neville found Beckham mysteriously: "I found a problem. As long as we encounter the word 'York', our game will definitely not end well."

Beckham smiled helplessly, this guy was thinking about something stupid.

What York, what a mess.

But he couldn't help but savor the other party's words.

This product really has a taste.

Never mind, it makes sense.
