Manchester United legend

Chapter 119 Chapter 110 Chapter [-] Captain Jost
After the training, Ferguson led Jost into the locker room. Ferguson clapped his hands: "Hey guys, calm down, I have something to say."

The locker room slowly fell silent. Ferguson: "Everyone knows that Cantona retired last season. We haven't appointed a new captain this season, so I decided to appoint Jost as the new captain. Do you have any opinions?"

The players in the locker room look at me, I look at you, no one speaks.

Finally, Jost's good friend Scholes took the lead to break the silence: "I support Jost as the new captain of Manchester United."

Scholes's statement immediately drove the attitude of Manchester United's class of 92. Neville, Butt, Beckham, Giggs and the new first-team players from the youth team all expressed their support for Jost as the new captain of Manchester United's class of 92.

Manchester United's 92 youth team has gradually taken control of the first team.It has also become a force. Pallister is getting older and has no desire to compete for fame and fortune. Schmeichel sometimes feels powerless when playing games. He plans to return to his mother team in Denmark after his contract with Manchester United expires.

The Mesozoic players either just came to Manchester United and don't know much about it, or they just came for a year or two and didn't have enough qualifications, so Jost became the new captain of Manchester United at the age of 22.

When Manchester United announced that Jost became the trusted captain, the outside world was not optimistic about Jost, thinking that Jost was a villain on the court, and he was too young to manage the team well. Manchester United would regret their decision.

After Ferguson coached Manchester United as captains, Robson, Bruce, and Cantona all expressed their support for Jost becoming the captain of Manchester United in public.

In this way, the first game of Manchester United's new season began. Jost's first game as Manchester United captain was the Charity Shield against Chelsea led by Gullit.

The summer is not over yet, and the Premier League is about to start again. On August 1997, 8, Manchester United made their first appearance. They met Chelsea's challenge in the Community Shield match.

Chelsea, which has spent a lot of money to bring in many good players from Serie A, is also full of confidence. Gullit chatted with Ferguson when he entered the field.

Before the start of the game, the captains of the two teams led the teams into the stadium. Jost was a little nervous to wear the captain’s armband for the first time, but when the entrance music reminded him that Jost entered the stadium with the Manchester United flag, he felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

The two teams exchanged flags, the referee tossed a coin, and Jost chose the head side. The result was no, and Manchester United kicked off first.

At the beginning of the game, Chelsea quickly launched an offensive. They had a taste of Dutch football total defense. They had already passed a corner kick not long after the start. Zola’s corner kick was very tricky.

This goal has actually exposed a hidden danger of Manchester United throughout the season: Manchester United's always strong defense has a major flaw in the rear point where no one is marking the opponent's forward.

The defense that Manchester United relies most on to win the championship, there were low-level mistakes in this game.

It seems that after Bruce left and Pallister was no longer the main force, the huge black hole formed in the defense line cannot be seamlessly filled by David May and Johnson.

Manchester United's defense is in trouble, but the offensive end is still sharp and trustworthy.

The absence of Cantona does not seem to have dealt a big blow to Manchester United's attacking power.

Soon, Giggs sent a corner kick from the left. Manchester United central defender Johansen rose up in the circle of the opponent's three defenders, grabbed the kick, shook his head and hit the goal, and the football was scored into Chelsea's goal. 1 to 1, Manchester United equalized the score.

After Manchester United equalized the score, Chelsea attacked very violently and wanted to overtake the score again.

The little Italian Zola was very active. He cooperated with Vialli in the frontcourt and frequently threatened the goal guarded by Schmeichel.

As a false number 9, Zola became Chelsea's link in forward and midfield.From time to time, he drew Manchester United defender Johansen out and passed the threatening ball.

When Zola drew Johansen again, he passed the ball to Vialli at the front of the penalty area.Vialli forcibly turned around to wipe David May, David May had to foul and pull Vialli, David May was shown a yellow card by the referee, and Chelsea won a free kick in a good position.

Schmeichel directed his teammates to line up the wall. Chelsea's Zola stood in front of the ball. The referee gave a short sound. Zola ran up and swung his legs.Manchester United dodged a bullet.

Ferguson on the sidelines immediately called Jost to let him stare at Zola.

Jost was in front of Zola when he got the ball on the box line once.

Jost knew that the little Italian had excellent skills, so he stood in a good position and did not shoot blindly. Zola made a lot of fake moves. Seeing Jost refused to shake, Bart ran towards him again to surround him, and Zola had to pass the ball away.

Jost paid attention to blocking the passing route to Zola. When Zola got the ball, Jost knew that Zola was not strong enough. He kept squeezing Zola with his body, so that Zola could not organize the attack well. When Zola was blocked by Jost, Chelsea could not organize a decent attack.

Since then, the two sides have no record, and the game has entered a penalty shootout.Schmeichel showed great power. He first saved Panardi's shot, and then forced his opponent Poyet to miss the shot. Manchester United's Scholes, Irving, Jost, and Butt all hit penalties. In this way, Manchester United won the Charity Shield with a penalty kick of 4-2 and a total score of 5-3.

As the captain, Jost was the first to receive the Charity Shield.Having won the Charity Shield trophy many times, he was not very excited in his heart. He raised the trophy and gave it to Schmeichel after a brief salute to the audience.

Schmeichel wasn't too excited... When the Charity Shield finally arrived in Sheringham's hands, the reporter's guns and short guns were all on him.

This Premier League Golden Boot shooter, who has been in the Premier League for 5 seasons, is lucky enough to be able to lift the trophy and win his first Premier League championship!
In an interview with the Manchester United TV reporter after the game, Sheringham said, "I want to show this championship to the fans who cursed me. I have been working hard, I have been fighting for honor. It is not my own problem to leave Tottenham. It has completely become a pressure cooker, a dead water boiling quagmire."

Yes, Sheringham is an arrogant person. He has never minded being called a traitor by Tottenham fans, and he cannot tolerate Sugar's ruthless approach.

　Thank you for the hot-blooded teasing, go three, Wen Run is me, the reward, whether you still read the book or not, thank you very much.
