Manchester United legend

Chapter 13 Youth FA Cup
In the end, Ferguson dealt with several players who violated the team rules, and each was fined one month's salary.Everyone is writing a review and doing it in front of the team.

This made it difficult for these young players to accept. Young people love face. Lee Sharp and the others wanted to bargain with Ferguson. Ferguson only said one sentence: "If you can review it, stay at Manchester United. You can't just leave here."

No one dares to bargain anymore.Ferguson assembled the players from the first team and the youth team. He had the errant players review in front of these people. Everyone went up and read their self-criticism. They were manipulated for a considerable period of time.It may have come from Fat John the doorman.

The worst thing was Jost, who was asked by Ferguson to remove him from the 18-man roster by coach Harrison of the youth team. The hope that had just been ignited was shattered. Jost continued to practice basic training alone. Jost still remembers being lectured by Ferguson in Ferguson's office that day.

Ferguson: "You think that you are a great achievement to enter the 18-man list. You are still far away. You are nothing. Giggs and the others have talent to squander. You don't have it. You can only get ahead if you train hard. Don't let me see you fooling around with Li Sharp and the others. If you let me see, you get out of Manchester United. Now go back to the training ground and practice basics.

Jost came out of Ferguson's office, sweating like he had taken a sauna, and he didn't want to be scolded like this anymore.

Ferguson asked the youth team players to beat Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Youth Cup semi-finals. Fortunately, the players were ashamed and brave. In the two rounds of the game, they defeated their opponents with two goals from Nicky Butt at home. The only regret is that the winning hero Butt received a yellow card in the game. He was suspended due to a total of 3 yellow cards. He will miss the final against the Liverpool youth team.

Ferguson decided to go to the youth team after finishing work at Manchester United today. This weekend is the FA Youth Cup final, and Manchester United will play against Liverpool.The final will be played at Wembley Stadium.Ferguson wants to cheer these boys up.

Ferguson came to the sidelines of the youth team training field. The youth team was conducting a tactical drill. The coach of the youth team, Harrison, instructed the players how to run and defend. Jost was called out by Harrison many times, "Jost pay attention to your defensive position, don't always be taken away by Scholes and leave your own area. I told you to stare at him, which means when he enters your defensive area, stare at him. It's not where you go where he goes? Stay in your position. You are not the only one on the field. Everyone has their own defensive area. Don't help.

Ferguson was watching the training from the sidelines, and Kidd, the director of youth training, came over: "Alex, "Why are you here today?"
Ferguson: "Let's see these troublemakers, how about it? Didn't cause you any trouble?"

Kidd: "These people have become more honest after you taught them a lesson, and they have trained more seriously. I think if you teach them a lesson every month, maybe they will all become world-class superstars."

Ferguson laughed: "Stop joking, let's get down to business, how is your preparation for the final?"

Kidd: "It's okay. Harrison is leading them in tactical drills. The only bad news is that Nicky Butt has been suspended. He won't be able to participate in the final at Wembley. We only have John O'Kane and Jost in our defensive midfielders."

Ferguson: "How is Jost doing?"

Kidd: "Haha I knew you would ask your godson. Recently, he has become more and more like a professional player. He has trained harder than before. His one-on-one marking is good, thanks to his excellent body. His positioning is not particularly good. Of course, this requires the accumulation of game experience. He is a lucky guy. There are only two midfielders in the team, he and Okahn. He entered the list as a substitute."

Ferguson: "The board of directors attaches great importance to this championship. After Best led the Manchester United youth team to win the championship in 1964, Manchester United has not won the FA Youth Cup, so the board of directors hopes that we can win the opponent."

Kidd: "I think we can win the championship. These players are all selected by you, me, and Harrison. After five years of hard work and careful training, most of them have begun to emerge. Ryan Giggs and Butt have already started to represent the first team. I believe that in the near future, more than half of Manchester United's first team players will be players trained by our youth training. All of us believe that there will be superstars born in this group. Maybe not one or two, but a batch."

Ferguson: "Let's hope, I hope they can all grow up, and I hope we will win all the championships. I'm leaving. I wish you a good weekend."

On the weekend at Wembley Stadium, the match between Manchester United and Liverpool youth teams began. More than 8 fans of the two teams poured into Wembley Stadium, and they came to cheer for their teams.The weather in the UK can change at will. Before the game, thunderstorms and torrential rain almost ruined the game.Just when the game time was up and the referees planned to postpone the game, the rain stopped, so the game could start smoothly.

Liverpool and Manchester United are centuries-old rivals. It takes only half an hour to drive from Liverpool to Manchester. The two teams are called "Northwest Derby" or "Double Red Club" because the home jerseys of both teams are red.But what really intensified their conflicts was in the 80s, when Liverpool dominated Europe and won the championship, while Manchester United was in the middle of the League One, and sometimes they had to fight for relegation and promotion!Manchester United fans started attacking Liverpool fans and even players out of jealousy, but Liverpool fans didn't take them seriously at all!

Until the 90s, feng shui took turns. Liverpool began to decline due to the impact of the Heysel tragedy and the Hillsborough tragedy.

Manchester United began to improve under the leadership of Ferguson, and has become a member of the championship group every season. Everyone can see that Ferguson will lead Manchester United to the league championship sooner or later. It is only a matter of time.At the last minute of this season, Manchester United was blocked by rival Liverpool and lost the championship. Leeds United won the last League One championship ahead of schedule.

This made Ferguson very angry. He said in an interview, "The biggest wish in my life is to kick Liverpool off the fucking throne." This interview was broadcast and caused an uproar.Manchester United was blocked and lost the championship this time, which made the fans of both sides hate even more.The two teams also attach great importance to this FA Youth Cup.

In the Manchester United locker room, all the players changed their equipment and waited for the arrival of coach Harrison. After a while, Kidd and Harrison walked in, and Harrison began the final tactical arrangement.

Harrison: "Well boys, today is our big day, many Manchester United fans came to the scene to cheer for us, the boss Ferguson and Sir Busby will also be there, we want to beat Liverpool and take home the trophy that should be ours.
