After playing the FA Cup final, Manchester City played two more rounds of the Premier League, beating Stoke City 3-0 at home and Bolton Wanderers 2-0 away to successfully defend the Premier League title with a winning record.

There is a full week gap between the 38th round of the Premier League and the Champions League final, so Gao Han specially gave the team a day off after playing the league, so that everyone can spend time with their families and rest.

On the afternoon of the team's holiday, Ferguson happily came to the door with a bottle of treasured red wine.

His reason is also very reasonable: "I miss the dishes cooked by your family Lin Xia." ”

Gao Han was completely defeated by this cheeky old man, but Lin Xia had great respect for this neighbor's senior, and immediately began to prepare his own special skills and treat him warmly.

Ferguson and Gao Han live very close to each other and often come and go with each other, especially after tasting Lin Xia's craftsmanship, this old man has a soft spot for Chinese food, and is a frequent customer of the restaurant invested by Gao Han.

This also made Alpine's restaurant particularly famous in Manchester, and the business was in shambles.

The advantage is that Gao Han has money to collect, and the disadvantage is that Ferguson's reason for rubbing rice is more reasonable.

No way, in his opinion, Lin Xia's skills are better than the chef of the restaurant.

Gao Han occasionally complained, but it was just a joke, because every time Ferguson came over to eat, he would bring a treasure of good wine, and Lin Xia would also do it more carefully and more exquisitely, and he himself had a good mouth.

Beckoning Ferguson into the living room, Gao Han went over to pour him water, and when he came out again, he saw the old man standing in front of his honor window.

The window is filled with every accolade he has received in charge of Manchester City, including trophies, medals and certificates.

Gao Han usually receives awards with a little weight, such as FIFA's Men's Coach of the Year award, but there are also some awards given by newspapers, which are usually sent to the door by the other party, take a few photos and it's over.

I don't know if I don't know, two years, a big window.

But Ferguson's eyes are obviously not in the window, because when it comes to trophies and medals, he is only a lot more than Gao Han.

What he was really looking at was a picture hung by Gao Han outside the window.

It was the night of the FA Cup final, Gao Han ran over to take a photo with the players of the 92 class, the photo was taken by Green Wald, and after it was immediately developed, he specially asked the players of the 92 class to sign it, and finally framed it in a photo frame and hung it in the middle of the honor window.

In the photo, Gao Han is standing in the middle, and the players of the 92nd class are lined up on both sides, and everyone is signing on the top of their heads, which is very commemorative.

"If I'm not mistaken, you have one at home. Gao Han walked over to Ferguson and handed over a glass of water.

Ferguson took it and nodded, "yes, it's been a long time, I don't know where to put it." ”

Gao Han smiled faintly, and did not expose Ferguson's lies, because the photo was also framed, hanging in a conspicuous place in Ferguson's honor room, but the old man was reluctant to admit it.

"Sometimes, people, don't be too stubborn, it's not a big deal at all, why bother?" Gao Han persuaded earnestly.

On the night of the FA Cup final, David Beckham returned to the United camp for the final of several of his team-mates, but Gao Han noticed that Ferguson had avoided him from start to finish, consciously or unconsciously, and so did Beckham.

Two people who used to be in love with father and son, but it turned out to be like this, which is also funny.

Gao Han can completely see that they have already let go of their grievances with each other, after all, both of them have reached the age of retiring, and many things have long been downplayed, and the reason why they have not reconciled for a long time is because no one is willing to take the initiative to take that step.

Sometimes, when that step goes out, the window paper is pierced, and reconciliation is a natural thing.

Ferguson once inadvertently talked about Class 92 after a drink, and the disciple he put the most effort into, the best feelings, and the most proud disciple in his life was Beckham.

But perhaps because of this, his discipline of Beckham was also particularly strict, which led to Beckham being more rebellious when he was young, just like an adolescent son who always likes to contradict his father, especially when choosing a lifelong partner, the values of the two are in serious conflict.

In fact, the conflict between Ferguson and Beckham also happened in many ordinary people's homes, the difference is that both are world-famous football figures, which leads to the contradiction being completely exposed to the world, and finally the two sides are strangers.

Now, one is about to retire, and the other is about to retire, so how can there be any grievances?

Ferguson shook his head and sighed, turned around, and walked to the sofa in the living room, the whole person was indescribably melancholy.

The Premier League is over, Manchester City have won the title, Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal are in the top four, and Arsene Wenger has retained his club's Champions League qualification, but credible sources have revealed that Cesc Fabregas has all but decided to leave the Gunners this season.

It's also a very difficult to accept, but brutal fact, that Fabregas struggled to win trophies at Arsenal, so he was eager to return to Spain and play for Barcelona.

Barcelona is also pursuing Cesc Fabregas, and it is estimated that this transfer can be completed this summer.

In addition to Cesc Fabregas, the likes of Robin van Persie, Nasri and Alexander Song are also likely to leave, and the Gunners are in an awkward position right now, somewhat frustrated for ambitious players.

As for Manchester United......

"Are the rumors from the outside world true?" asked Gao Han with a smile.

"What?"

"A £200 million transfer budget. ”

This is the fierce news that broke in the media two days ago, and it is said that Manchester United decided to increase investment and gave Ferguson a huge transfer budget.

Ferguson didn't answer and laughed, "It's up to you." ”

"What does it have to do with me?"

'When you leave the Premier League, we invest more. ”

Gao Han smiled a little wryly, he didn't know what kind of reaction he should give, should he be happy?

Manchester United can be said to have a lot of problems now, even if Gao Han really leaves the Premier League, even if Ferguson has a transfer budget of 200 million pounds, he may not be able to beat Manchester City, and the squad left by Gao Han is not a joke.

On the other hand, Manchester United, center forwards, central defenders, right wing-backs and goalkeepers all need to be recruited, if you want to bring in instant combat power, 200 million pounds is really nothing to pick, especially those European first-line stars, all of whom are worth a lot of money.

"Honestly, how sure are you in the Champions League final?" Ferguson asked with concern.

It is estimated that this is also the issue that he is most concerned about during this trip.

Gao Han smiled slightly, "It's hard to say." ”

"Still hard to say?" Ferguson almost annoyed, "Isn't it obvious that Barcelona's hole is there?"

Not long ago, UEFA just announced the list of the best team for this season's Champions League, and the goalkeeper was given to Manchester United's Van der Sar, which is somewhat emotional, and Petr Cech performed better than Van der Sar.

The backline is Bayern Munich's Marcelo, Xavi Martinez, Gerard Pique and Atletico Madrid's Dario Srner.

Luka Modric, Xavi Alonso and Andres Iniesta in midfield, while Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Alexis Sanchez up front.

It can be said that, except for the goalkeeper and the two full-backs on the left and right, all of them are from the team in the Champions League final.

Manchester City play with a back three, with no left and right wing-backs, but Barcelona is not.

Right-back Alves has performed quite well, but he is still slightly inferior to Atletico Madrid's Dario Srnaby, which has also led to the Croatian star being invited by several teams, including Manchester United.

But left-back is a big weakness for Barcelona, so Bayern Munich's Marcelo was naturally shortlisted in the best team, and the Brazilian player has shone and made a name for himself this season, especially in the two-legged match against Barcelona, and the left side with Ribery is simply invincible.

Many giant teams, including Barcelona and Real Madrid, are coveting Marcelo, especially Real Madrid, who is eager to recall the old players, but Bayern Munich is not willing to let go of the left side of the Tianzun easily, and it is expected that it will be pulled again, even if it is really released, it may be a sky-high price.

As Ferguson said, Barcelona's weakness is indeed obvious, left-back and central defender, Abidal and Puyol are two big problems, and Gao Han himself knows it.

But before the final, he can't say that he has won, right?

So, it's best to keep an unfathomable smile.

But just when Gao Han was about to pretend to compare, Ferguson suddenly changed the topic.

"By the way, Chinatown has been doing well this season. ”

Ferguson's words made Gao Han's eyelids jump and his heart was shocked, "What do you want to do?"

"Nothing, just say it casually. Ferguson laughed.

But the more he is like this, the more Gao Han can't let go.

Chinatown did do well this season, and although their performance dropped after entering May, they eventually retained the fourth place in the league, which is quite difficult for a team that has only been promoted to La Liga for two years.

However, there are also troubles, that is, in the past two days, many European media have begun to turn over old accounts, hyping up the conflict of interests between Gao Han and Chinatown, waiting for UEFA to make a ruling, waiting to watch a good show.

This season, Michu has fallen behind Messi in the competition for the scorer list, ranking second in the scorer list, surpassing the likes of Villa, Torres, Higuain and Diego Costa, which has made the Spanish player famous.

After a season of stable performance, Michu's strength and technical and tactical characteristics have basically been recognized, and he has also been selected for the Spanish national team, and many European giants have also set their sights on this gem of Chinatown.

"You don't really want to dig up Michu, do you?" Gao Han was a little curious.

Ferguson is really cheeky and not afraid to admit it honestly, but ......

"Don't worry, if I'm going to dig up your people, I'll tell you in advance. After a pause, the old man Shi Shiran said again: "Mi Chu is indeed in my list of reinforcements, but he is the second candidate, unless the number one reinforcement is frustrated, it will ......."

"Who is Number One?" asked Gao Han gossipingly.

Every summer, any team that brings in reinforcements in a certain position will often finalize several ABCD plans, from which they will prioritize the number one attacker, and then retreat to the second best after failure.

Michu is a Spanish player, his physical fitness is very good, and there is certainly no problem in adapting to the Premier League, but if Gao Han is not wrong, Ferguson's favorite candidate should be within the Premier League.

Could it be Drogba?

The Ivory Coast Elephant King is indeed leaving Chelsea, but he is no longer young.

"It's too early to tell, I'll tell you when you beat Barcelona!" Ferguson chuckled deliberately.
