Ferguson came to Madrid, Spain with the team?

As soon as this news came out, all the Spanish and British media were excited like chicken blood!

Speaking of who Ferguson is, anyone who pays attention to football will know something. The Scot who has been awarded the British title has controlled Manchester United for nearly 27 years. The old man officially announced his retirement last season. He brought the Red Devils to Brilliant, single-handedly overthrew the hegemony once established by Liverpool and dyed the whole of England red. Many Manchester United fans don't even care who their boss is, they just need to know that their coach is Ferguson.

Because Ferguson is the king of Manchester United, it has absolute supremacy, there is no doubt about it.

Leading Manchester United to overthrow Liverpool, establishing the Red Devils Dynasty, and also establishing the Red Empire belonging to Ferguson, becoming the only person who can influence the city of Manchester. Ferguson's life is as wonderful as a novel.

But Ferguson retired last season. There are different opinions about the reasons for his retirement. However, in the report not long ago, Ferguson accepted an interview with reporters. He admitted that he did not leave because of physical reasons. It will affect the coaching effect. Ferguson will only leave the stadium he loves to accompany his family and enjoy life.

This sounds like a decision made by a good husband to make up for his wife's support for more than 20 years. After all, as a wealthy coach, Ferguson doesn't have much time to spend with his family. It seems that he also wants to rest after becoming famous. To understand the fans, they are also willing to send blessings for their meritorious coach.

But this seems to be the end of the inspirational story of the counterattack, but it is not very good. The reason is that Manchester United's results are not good now. The league has reached the second half, and the ranking is only No. 9, one place lower than the absolute rival Liverpool!

The current coach Moyes, who was selected by Ferguson as his successor, has begun to burn out, but he can't solve various problems in the team at all.The relationship between Rooney and Ferguson has long been deadlocked. The current Manchester United locker room is not stable. In addition, Moyes does have some problems in on-the-spot command. As a result, Manchester United's games are no longer as bloody and hard-working as before. .

This situation has long made the fans dissatisfied, and they even wanted to surround the club with slogans and let Moyes get out of class. The only reason why they did not make trouble is the upcoming Champions League.

The European Champions Cup, this is the only spiritual support for Manchester United fans.

Although it is said that many fans wanted to go to UEFA with a knife when they were drawn to Real Madrid, but when the news broke that Ferguson had gone to Madrid, the Red Devils fans had something to look forward to.

They are looking forward to the old man who brought Manchester United to glory to save the team again!

"Do you think Ferguson will enter the locker room?" Mourinho pushed away the documents in front of him after finishing a day of tactical drills, rubbing his temples and asking Karanka beside him.

Karanka thoughtfully took out a bottle of red wine, poured it out and put it in Mourinho's hand: "The team locker room is a very sacred place, will Mr. Moyes agree?"

Mourinho took the glass of red wine and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "How could he disagree? Although Ferguson said he has retired, he is still the most important one in Manchester United, and do you really believe that he will leave the stadium? ? I was photographed watching the game in the stands more than once, and I saw Moyes invite Moyes to talk after the game more than once. This is not something a retired old man should do."

Kalanka didn’t pay attention to these things, and he was a little surprised. In fact, Kalanka, like most people, felt that the current Ferguson was just like what he showed, a man who would walk with his wife at night and go everywhere. The man who promotes his autobiography never pays attention to anything else.

But these will not be hidden from Mourinho. The Portuguese drank his red wine, leaned back in his chair, and looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows at a few of his own players who still did not leave the training ground. His voice was faint: "Sir Ferguson He once said that when he invited me to Manchester United to coach. He said that I was very similar to him. We were very consistent in terms of temperament and vision, so he was sure that I would be the one for Manchester United. It’s just that he let me give up now. It's impossible for a structured Real Madrid to go to Manchester United to clean up the mess, but I admit Sir Alex Ferguson was right, we are similar."

Kalanka was a little surprised that Mourinho would tell himself this matter. He is not a talkative person, so naturally he would not reveal it, but he didn't say anything, just looked at Mourinho.

The Portuguese stood up from the chair and walked to the window. He still didn't look back, and continued, "Because of the similarity, I understand what he's thinking right now." Slightly narrowing his eyes, Mu Rinho's voice was firm, "Ferguson will definitely participate in the pre-match preparations, and even enter the dressing room. It is absolutely impossible for Manchester United to lose their qualification for the Champions League now!"

Kalanka was startled, and then he stood up, but immediately showed a hesitant expression.

Mourinho did not dislike his assistant coach. Anyone who heard Ferguson's name would have this reaction. He smiled and poured Karanka a glass of wine: "You don't have to do anything. Someone in the media will naturally solve it, and as long as If Moyes has no objections then Ferguson will have a free pass at Manchester United."

It was useless for Moyes to disagree.

Of course, both of them didn't say this because of the face of Mr. Moyes, so it's fine if they understand it.

Feeling that what he has to deal with is not the half-dead Red Devils under Moyes, but the team that will be blessed by Ferguson. Mourinho is not only not confused but worried but a little excited.

He loved competing with Ferguson and taking titles from this man, and that's what he did in the Premier League years.

The Premier League triple kill counted by UEFA is not very happy, but thinking about being able to continue to play against Ferguson once, I think this result is not bad.

With a smile on his face again, Mourinho's eyes refocused on the training ground.

Now, Real Madrid's training has ended. In order to prepare for tomorrow's game, Mourinho gave the team a half-day holiday so that they can control themselves, but most of the players chose to stay on the training ground.

There is no way, the core players like Ronaldo and Kaka have stayed. What reason do they have to go home and rest?

It's better to stay here and train hard. Even if you can't add points, at least you won't deduct points.

Among them, Clemens and Pepe are very eye-catching for no other reason. The tangled expression on Pepe's face that he might faint at any time is really interesting.

"What happened to them?" Mourinho turned his head and asked Karanka.

The caring assistant coach took a look and responded with a smile: "Now the shooters in the team don't want to do one-on-one practice with Clemens. It is estimated that Pepe was temporarily arrested. It seems that he is very reluctant. .”

Mourinho was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud.

Clemens is still a very likable kid in the team. Although he doesn't like to talk, his ability has established a solid position in the locker room.Everyone in the team has to rely on other people to feed them, and Clemens is straightforward and simple in character, even a rookie in a locker room like Real Madrid, where all forces are not well balanced, Clemens can handle it well. very good.

But being likable doesn't mean being popular in training. On the contrary, except for many people wanting to hang on Clemens' lap in training games, the blond boy mostly relies on "catch "Only in order to pull in the teammates who are with me.

No way, Clemens is the goalkeeper. What he needs to practice is not only passing and breaking through, but the most important thing is always goalkeeper training and various saves.

The strength and speed of the assistant coach can't meet his needs, so Clemens prefers to let his teammates help him.

It turned out that there was a brave man named Ronaldo who often took the initiative to practice with Clemens and never tired of it.But now after countless zero-block strikes, Ronaldo rarely practices with Clemens before the game.

"It will hit my self-confidence." This is Ronaldo's explanation to Mourinho.

In the same way, many Real Madrid players would politely refuse. Even Kaka, who was closest to Clemens, rarely went up to abuse before the game.

With no other choice, Clemens began to arrest the strong men, and the one who was arrested the most times was the honest Pepe.

"That's fine, isn't Pepe honestly saying that there are few chances to shoot recently? Now it's time to help him find the feeling." Suppressing a smile, Mourinho raised the corner of his mouth and drank the red wine.

Karanka glanced at Mourinho, smiled and shook his head.

Looking for a feeling?It feels like it will be wiped out too... Poor Pepe...

Real Madrid looks extremely happy here, but that is not the case at Manchester United.

Moyes is a tall and handsome head coach, and his dressing taste is also very good. On the day of the game, he specially wore a red tie to match the colors of Manchester United.Although the away jersey is blue and gray, red will always be the main color of Manchester United.

This handsome coach didn't show any smiles to the reporters. He always looked very serious, and the reporters could understand it. After all, any club that meets Real Madrid in such a crucial game is like this, and they can laugh... So far found it.

In Manchester United, they didn't have any injuries. This time, all the main players came to Madrid.

Clemens did not attend the pre-match press conference. Mourinho brought Ramos and Ronaldo. Ramos was brought because he was the captain of the team, and Ronaldo was brought because he was the captain of the team. Ronaldo once played for Manchester United and became famous. Mourinho will not prevent reporters from digging out news in this area.

Bringing former highlight players to the press conference before the game can not only make the players feel grateful, but also put pressure on the opponent team virtually.

He has friendship with Ferguson, but not with Moyes.

He wants to let Moyes know that Real Madrid is now strong and strong, the best Ronaldo, the best Kaka, he is lucky to have so many good players, and he has to show off one by one.

Mourinho, who was used to playing psychological warfare, stabbed him first with a smile.

If it was Ferguson who was sitting at the press conference, I'm afraid he would have found an opportunity to sarcastically go back. The personal relationship is a personal relationship, but there will be a lot of stabbings that should be said.

But Moyes is not good at this, and the entire press conference was suffocated internally.

During the warm-up before the game, Clemens stopped someone in the player tunnel: "Louis."

Nani turned around and saw Clemens. The honest Portuguese immediately showed a smile on his face. He turned around and said something to Van Persie who was traveling with him. The gentleman Dutchman and Clemens nodded and went first. Stadium warm up.

Nani said to the goalkeeper of the national team: "It's not happy to see you again, Thomas, God knows I prayed to be drawn to Real Madrid at that time."

The only one who can speak so frankly is Mr. Nani who is too honest.

Fortunately, he was facing a Mr. Thomas who was also too honest.

"Anyway, we will meet sooner or later. It's better to play two games than one." Clemens and Nani patted each other's shoulders seriously.

Nani blinked: "You mean, I have a chance in two games?"

Clemens also blinked and looked back: "No."

Hearing this, Nani immediately made a bitter face, but he didn't say anything else. He just hooked Clemens by the neck and started chatting with him in Portuguese.

For example, my good wife has agreed to live with me in Manchester. For example, he plans to take his wife with him during the World Cup. For example, when Clemens went to Manchester, he invited him to come to his home to taste his wife's handicrafts.

Nani, who always smiled when his wife was mentioned, wrote the words "strict wife management" on his forehead, but it didn't make Clemens feel any discomfort.

"After the game, if I have time, I will invite you to my house for dinner." Clemens said and walked towards the entrance of the passage together.

"Is there a nice girl who can cook for you too?" Nani looked at him curiously.

Clemens looked back calmly: "There are no good girls, I'll make it for you."

Nani looked at Clemens as if he had discovered a new world. His little goalkeeper was good-looking, made amazing saves, and could even cook!

Who can marry him?That must be very happy.

When the two walked out of the player tunnel, they let go of each other tacitly, and each went to the middle of their teammates.

Reminiscing about the past is limited to the off-court, and you have to do your best for your jersey when you step on the court.

As soon as Nani walked over, he was stopped by Van Persie.

The Dutchman has a handsome face, and the pure Nani has pure aesthetics. He likes good-looking people. Similarly, Van Persie, the forward Nani who transferred from Arsenal, also gave unconditionally Good impression.

"Robin?" Nani looked at Van Persie, "What's wrong?"

Van Persie had a smile on his face, and the Dutchman always smiled warmly: "Luis, you have a good relationship with that Real Madrid goalkeeper?"

Nani nodded.

"So what do you think it takes to break his goal?"

Nani thought about it carefully, and after quickly filtering out the only few threats from Clemens, he said to Van Persie very firmly: "Robin, I think you should ask Mr. Coach about this, I don't think so. come out."

"..."

===

Clemens is the first player to leave the field and return to the locker room. He is often the first, not only because Clemens does not need to warm up too much as a goalkeeper, but also because he controls the entire defense line. For players who even need to take up the backcourt by themselves, Mourinho will have some arrangements to explain to him.

This time was no exception. Mourinho, who also returned to the locker room, waved Clemens to sit down, and then there were special staff to help Clemens relax his muscles, and Mourinho continued Draw on the tactical board.

The starters of both sides have just come out, and Mourinho must make some adjustments to the deployment based on the opponent's starters.

Clemens did not do it, but stood beside Mourinho.Mourinho didn't care about this, just continued to study the tactical board.He is an absolutely utilitarian coach. The premise of utilitarianism is to win. This is the most basic requirement. He will never ignore Manchester United. Even if anyone can bully the Red Devils now, Mourinho will not ignore him.

Mr. Daochang stood and looked at it for a while, and then sat back on his seat. He was sitting upright, and he didn't look like he was resting.

What Mourinho likes about Clemens is that Clemens always has a rigorous attitude. Maybe some coaches prefer players who can mobilize the atmosphere in the locker room, but Mourinho prefers candidates who are obedient and executive.Moreover, Mourinho likes to buy those black players who are big and thick, not only because of their tough defense, but also because such players are often not favored by manufacturers and do not have so many commercial contracts.

Clemens is perfect except that his appearance does not fit Mourinho's black and hard aesthetic.

"Tell me what you can see." After arranging everything, Mourinho put his pen into the groove under the tactical board and looked at Clemens.

Clemens stared into Mourinho's eyes and said calmly: "I need to cooperate with the defense, fill the gap in the middle, and make more long passes."

Each of these three items was aimed at Clemens himself. He neither talked eloquently nor expressed his own experience, but only expressed the things related to himself written by Mourinho on the tactical board.

If you talk too much, you will exceed your authority, and if you talk too little, you will appear ignorant, which is just right.

Obedient enough and smart enough, such a good player Mourinho himself doesn't know how he found out.

Perhaps the Real Madrid club really has magic power?You must always poach people from the team that hurts you...

Mourinho didn't say much anymore, he comforted himself that his tactical lessons were in place, at least with Clemens, and then he was going to say something next to Clemens.

At this moment, Karanka pushed the door open and came in, closed the door with his backhand and lowered his voice: "Sir, Ferguson has entered the visiting team's locker room and has no intention of coming out for the time being."

Sure enough.

Mourinho showed a clear look in his eyes, while Clemens looked at Karanka in surprise.

Ferguson entered the visiting team's locker room, but he is not the team coach?What is this for?

Mourinho doesn't mind answering questions for his young players: "Moyes will definitely implement every word Ferguson said. This is his bargaining chip for staying at Manchester United. Manchester United cannot afford to lose in this game. They should be defensive. If you want to score goals, then the players must cheer up. Isn't the best way to let Sir Alex Ferguson scold them to boost morale?"

Clemens never knew that swearing could boost morale, but seeing the worry in Karanka's eyes, he knew it was true.

No one prevents a retired coach from entering the locker room. As long as the other party doesn't care, the home team can't say anything.

But this means that Ferguson actually controlled the team from a distance, so I don't know if Manchester United is still the Red Devils who will kneel down this season.

Mourinho glanced at Clemens' slightly frowned brows, smiled, and said, "Even if you add countless layers of halo to them, in the end they still lead the goals with Van Persie and Nani, and there is a substitute." Player Hernandez, I gave you their videos, have you watched them all?" Seeing Clemens nodding, Mourinho was once again moved by the fact that he had such a goalkeeper who was willing to watch the videos, and said: He said, "Then there is nothing to be afraid of. Just remember to tie up those behind and don't let go. Then this game will not be too difficult."

After finishing speaking, Mourinho asked Karanka to notify the players to come back, while Clemens glanced at Mourinho's back, hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

Sir, do you know that there is a popular word recently called FLAG?

Some words are very likely to come true, very poisonous.

Thinking that Beckham said that if he didn't draw Real Madrid, the result would be Real Madrid's prophecy, Clemens felt that the foreign Taoists also had something to say here.

After all the players returned to the locker room, Mourinho began to mobilize passionately before the game!

There are very few games like today that can make Mourinho raise his voice and add body language. In the league, he crushes everything. In the King's Cup, he sees one and kills one. Too strong teams also have troubles. No one can understand loneliness.

Now Mourinho is encouraged by Ferguson rather than Manchester United. It is so rare to be able to wrestle again!

Clemens looked at his teammates, and once again lamented how innocent and cute the foreign friends are. Just a few words from Mourinho stimulated the fighting spirit, especially the one who had transferred from Manchester United to Real Madrid and now has to face Ronaldo, the old master, exudes red flames all over his body, and it seems that he can burn as long as he ignites.

Tighten the Velcro on the glove. As a goalkeeper, what Clemens needs is calmness and patience, and it is the same now.

"Go, lads! As long as the battle is resolved today, then we can step into the Stadium of Light in Lisbon for the decisive battle and glory!"

lisbon.

Many players didn't pay attention to where the final venue was. Now that they said it, the Portuguese gang in the team suddenly raised their heads.

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, it would be a great thing if a Portuguese could hold the Big Ears Cup in the capital!

So when they shouted the slogan at the end, Ronaldo and Pepe were especially loud, and Clemens also opened his mouth.

"Glory to Madrid! HalaMadrid!"

A few minutes later, the two teams started to line up, and many cameras were aimed at the player tunnel. The players on both sides in the tunnel had occasional conversations because of their relationship with the national team or former teammates, but they thought that life and death were about to come. Zhan didn't say much. At this moment, many fans' familiar voices came out in the broadcast signal.

"Spanish National Television! Spanish National Television! Now is the first round of the European Champions Cup semi-final! Real Madrid will face the visiting Premier League giants Manchester United at the Bernabéu Stadium! The referee is the famous Italian referee Rizzoli, who doesn’t seem to be smiling much and wonders if he is nervous. Now, players from both sides enter the field! The match is about to begin!”
