If Rooney wants to rebel, it is impossible for the Manchester United club management led by Glazer alone to make Rooney change his mind, and Ferguson must step in.

Ferguson was on his way to Rooney's mansion in Cheshire, and he had been thinking about who would take Rooney's place if Rooney's iron heart left?

Last season, Ferguson almost fell out with Mourinho in order to compete for Gao Xiaodong, and in the end, although Mourinho grabbed Gao Xiaodong with the secret help of Mendes, the old man cheated Mourinho at the last moment, almost collapsing Inter Milan's salary system.

If it weren't for Mourinho's iron-fisted cleaning of the Argentine gang, coupled with Gao Xiaodong's all-position attributes, maybe Inter Milan's dressing room would have collapsed.

Gao Xiaodong's performance this season is so magical, Inter Milan will basically not release him if he does not activate the 80 million liquidated damages, coupled with Manchester United's financial difficulties, so Ferguson has never considered pursuing Gao Xiaodong again.

But Wayne Rooney suddenly made a statement, telling the media that Manchester United was not worthy of his ambitions, and officially informed Manchester United that he intended to leave, which made the old gentleman, who was almost dead, think of the magical Chinese teenager again.

If I had bought Gao Xiaodong last season, maybe the Champions League title would have been mine, and when I walked into Rooney's house, Ferguson's heart flashed through this thought again.

Rooney seemed to have anticipated Ferguson's arrival, and he and his wife, Colleen, welcomed Ferguson into their living room.

Ferguson was a grumpy person, and as soon as he sat down, he asked directly, "Wayne, why are you leaving?"

Rooney said: "Last week my agent Streford had a meeting with CEO David Gill, but he couldn't give me any guarantees for the future of the squad, and when I moved in the winter, I wanted the team to bring in world-class players and strengthen the team, but the club didn't do anything, if we can make up for it, maybe we can win the Champions League or the league, BOSS, I hope to get more titles, so I want to go to a team with more quality and ambition. ”

While Rooney was talking, Ferguson kept staring at Rooney with a sharp gaze, so much so that Rooney had to avoid Ferguson's gaze.

"Wayne, I want you to understand that it's the club's job and my job to transfer, not yours, it's your job to play well. Ferguson tapped his index finger on the table and said: "In addition, I heard that you plan to Manchester City, is Manchester City, who have not even qualified for the Champions League, more powerful and ambitious than Manchester United? And Chelsea, if we don't fight on both fronts, can Chelsea beat us and win the league title? In the Premier League, we are the best team and the most ambitious team." ”

Rooney is not a man to swallow his mouth either, and he immediately retorted: "BOSS, we are very strong, but we are certainly not as ambitious as Manchester City and Chelsea, they have a stronger desire for the title than we do. ”

Ferguson slapped the table, "Wayne, that can only say that your desire is not strong, and it cannot be said that the other players of Manchester United are not strong in their desire for the title." ”

Rooney said: "BOSS, I'm talking about Glazer and David Gill, not teammates, they just want to make money. ”

Ferguson said in a deep voice: "Wayne, I gave up buying people during the winter break, although the club is in a lot of debt now, but as long as I want to buy whom, the owner has never said a word." ”

Rooney was puzzled, "Why?"

Ferguson said: "Because I think the squad is enough for us to compete for the top honours. ”

Rooney said very politely: "But we only won the League Cup, and the Champions League was defeated by Inter Milan last season." ”

Losing to Ancelotti in the league, losing to Mourinho in the Champions League, and being eliminated by Leeds United, the third-tier team, in the FA Cup, this is Ferguson's pain point, stimulated by Rooney, Ferguson was furious, and almost took the case, but thinking that he was here to persuade Rooney today, Ferguson suppressed his anger again.

Taking a deep breath, the old gentleman said: "Sometimes, it takes luck to win the championship, and this transfer we will buy some heavyweight players to help us win the championship." ”

Rooney waved his hand and said disdainfully: "BOSS, don't lie to me, I heard Mr. Strelford say that this season we have higher operating income than any other year, but we have more debts than before, there is no money, who can we buy." ”

Ferguson said: "Wayne, whether there is money or not is a matter for the club, as long as the team can buy people. Manchester United is the greatest club in the world, Rooney you don't leave, stay and you will become a legend here. ”

Rooney hesitated for a moment and said: "No, BOSS, you are a great coach, a great mentor, you have always helped and supported me since I came to Manchester United from Everton at the age of 18, I am very grateful to you, but now Manchester United has declined, the Glazers have ruined Manchester United, they don't leave, Manchester United will have a hard time coming out, I am 25 years old, I hope to win more trophies in my golden age, not to do nothing at Manchester United." ”

Ferguson finally couldn't help it anymore and slapped the table hard, ", is this the bastard mentality that your vampire agent instilled in you? Wayne, don't think of the agent as your parents, they're vampires!" They all value your money, not for your sake, before the 2006 World Cup, you had a tortarsal bone, and I said to Eriksen, if he sent you out, I would kill him, but your agent Strelford called and told Eriksen that he had to let you play, did he think about your career?

Before Rooney could speak, his wife, Colleen, spoke first.

"Sir, I think you misunderstood Mr. Strefort, since he became Wayne's agent, Rooney has only transferred once, that is, from his beloved Everton to Manchester United, from 04 to now it has been 6 years, Wayne has been staying here, no matter what position he plays, how much salary he gets, Streford has never asked for a raise every year like Raiola, and now the club is too picky in the transfer market, they will waste Wayne's best years, I think this is the reason why Streford wants Wayne to transfer. ”

Colleen was originally a small jasper, but Strelford praised him as a little star like the hot girl Victoria, and Colleen liked Streldle more than Rooney, so she naturally had to speak for Streford.

Ferguson felt as if he had grasped something, he touched his rosacea, calmed down, and said: "Wayne, do you think the £150,000 a week that the club is offering you is too little?"

The weekly salary of 150,000 pounds is second only to Manchester City's midfielder Yaya Toure in the Premier League, and second only to Ronaldo, Messi, and Ibrahimovic in the entire European football, which is the absolute top salary, and Ferguson can't believe that Rooney will not be satisfied.

Ferguson's painting style changed too quickly, and Rooney scratched his defeated head and said, "BOSS, that's not the main reason." ”

It's not the main reason or the reason, or that's the main reason, Ferguson immediately understood that what he said was probably useless, Rooney valued money, not feelings, and not whether Manchester United was great or not.

This is not the era when players trusted their coaches and signed contracts with clubs, that era is history.

Ferguson sighed, as if he was a teenager old, he stood up and said to Rooney: "Wayne, Manchester United is the stage that needs you the most, and it is also the stage you need the most, you are different from Ronaldo, you belong to the Premier League and Manchester United." I will consult with Mr. Glazer and try to accommodate your request. Prepare well for the World Cup. ”

After saying that, without saying goodbye to Rooney, Ferguson patted Rooney on the shoulder and left Rooney's mansion.
